On
November 1, 2020, EACO CORP. (the “Company”) was notified that the audit practice of Squar Milner LLP (“Squar
Milner”) an independent registered public accounting firm, was combined with Baker Tilly US, LLP (“Baker Tilly”)
in a transaction pursuant to which Squar Milner combined its operations with Baker Tilly and certain of the professional staff
and partners of Squar Milner joined Baker Tilly either as employees or partners of Baker Tilly. On November 1, 2020, Squar Milner
resigned as the auditors of the Company and with the approval of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors,
Baker Tilly was engaged as its independent registered public accounting firm.
Prior
to engaging Baker Tilly, the Company did not consult with Baker Tilly regarding the application of accounting principles to a
specific completed or contemplated transaction or regarding the type of audit opinions that might be rendered by Baker Tilly on
the Company’s financial statements, and Baker Tilly did not provide any written or oral advice that was an important factor
considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any such accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue.
The
report of independent registered public accounting firm of Squar Milner regarding the Company’s financial statements for
the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During
the year ended December 29, 2019, and during the interim period from the end of the most recently completed fiscal year through
November 1, 2020, the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with Squar Milner 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 Squar Milner would have caused it to make reference to such disagreement in its reports.
The
Company provided Squar Milner with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and requested that Squar Milner furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission
stating whether it agrees with above statements and, if it does not agree, the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of
the letter, dated November 1, 2020, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 (which is incorporated by reference herein) to this Current Report
on Form 8-K.
