Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On November 1, 2024, CBIZ CPAs P.C. (“CBIZ CPAs”) acquired the attest business of Marcum LLP (“Marcum”). Accordingly, on April 23, 2025, solely as a result of the acquisition, Marcum resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of PAVmed Inc. (the “Company”) and, with the approval of the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors, CBIZ CPAs was engaged as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm on the same date.
The audit report of Marcum on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except for the inclusion of an explanatory paragraph as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and through April 23, 2025, the date of Marcum’s resignation, there were (a) no “disagreements” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) with Marcum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Marcum, would have caused Marcum to make reference to such disagreement in its report and (b) no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and through April 23, 2025, neither the Company nor anyone on the Company’s behalf consulted with CBIZ CPAs regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or regarding the type of audit opinion that might be rendered by CBIZ CPAs on the Company’s financial statements, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S- K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Company provided Marcum with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and requested that Marcum furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC, pursuant to Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if it does not agree, the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of the letter from Marcum, dated April 25, 2025, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
