The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 to provide the specific date of dismissal of Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm and to update the disclosures required by Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K.

Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On January 14, 2026, upon the completion of a comprehensive selection process, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors ("the Audit Committee") of the Company approved the dismissal of Deloitte as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of immediately following Deloitte's completion of its audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, and the issuance of Deloitte's reports thereon. Deloitte was dismissed on February 25, 2026, upon completion of its audit services.
The audit reports of Deloitte on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
In connection with the audits of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the subsequent interim period through February 25, 2026, there were no: (1) 'disagreements' (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) with Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to Deloitte's satisfaction would have caused Deloitte to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with Deloitte's opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement; or (2) 'reportable events' (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Company provided Deloitte with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and requested that Deloitte furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of such letter from Deloitte is attached as Exhibit 16.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On January 14, 2026, the Audit Committee appointed KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, effective beginning with the review of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ending March 31, 2026.
During the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the subsequent interim period through February 25, 2026, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted KPMG with respect to 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 financial statements, and no written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that KPMG 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 defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) or a 'reportable event' (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
