Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

(a)        As previously reported by Petrogress, Inc. (the “Company”) on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 27, 2016, the Company dismissed David S. Friedkin CPA as its independent public accountant, effective September 27, 2016.

 

(b)        On October 31, 2016, upon the authorization and approval of the Board of Directors, the Company engaged RBSM LLP (“RBSM”) as its new independent registered public accounting firm.

 

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period preceding RBSM’s engagement, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted RBSM 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 no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company that RBSM concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a “disagreement” (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or “reportable event” (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
