Verified excerpt

"Resignation of Directors In accordance with the Merger Agreement, immediately prior to the Mergers, J. Mel Sorensen, M.D. and Julie Feder resigned from the Board and committees of the Board on which they respectively served, which resignations were not the result of any disagreements with our company relating to our operations, policies or practices."

Quoted from the filing. Source

What this means

The company changed its outside auditor (8-K Item 4.01). A dismissal or resignation, especially near an annual report or with reported disagreements, is a warning sign. Changes caused by audit firms merging are usually routine.

Type: routine (post-merger auditor consolidation)
Disagreements reported: yes
New auditor: KPMG LLP

Why this score: routine: auditor replaced after company merger/SPAC deal
