Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On December 18, 2024, the Audit Committee (“Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors (“Board”) of Dynex Capital, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed BDO USA, P.C. (“BDO”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective upon completion by BDO of its audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 and the filing of the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Audit Committee and Board participated in and approved the decision to change the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
BDO’s reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the subsequent interim periods through December 18, 2024, there were no “disagreements” within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K between the Company and BDO on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to BDO’s satisfaction, would have caused BDO to make reference thereto in their reports.
The Company provided BDO with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that BDO furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of BDO’s letter, dated December 19, 2024, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Following an extensive evaluation process, on December 18, 2024, the Audit Committee approved, and the Board ratified, the engagement of Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, subject to completion of EY’s standard client acceptance procedures and execution of an engagement letter.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, as well as the subsequent interim periods through December 18, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with EY regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that EY concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement,” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or a “reportable event,” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
