Dismissal
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On
August 15, 2025, LifeMD, Inc. (the “Company”), with the approval of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors,
dismissed CBIZ CPAs P.C. (“CBIZ CPAs”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
As
previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 25, 2025, on April 24, 2025 Marcum LLP was dismissed, and CBIZ CPAs
was appointed, as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. CBIZ CPAs did not issue an audit report on the Company’s
financial statements.
From
the period April 24, 2025 through the date of CBIZ CPAs’ dismissal, there were no disagreements, within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv)
of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Regulation S-K”), and the related instructions
thereto, with CBIZ CPAs on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure,
which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of CBIZ CPAs, would have caused CBIZ CPAs to make reference to the subject matter
of the disagreements in connection with a report, if CBIZ CPAs had issued such a report.
From
the period April 24, 2025 through the date of CBIZ CPAs’ dismissal, there were no “reportable events” within the meaning
of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K except for the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting
related to: (i) our information technology general controls (“ITGCs”), particularly in the areas of user access and change
management within our information systems and review of key third-party service provider Systems and Organizational Controls (“SOC”)
reports and (ii) business process controls related to Information Produced by the Entity (“IPE”) and system generated IPE
and insufficient evidence of formal review and approval procedures of key information utilized in the performance of the control.
The
Company has provided CBIZ CPAs with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and has requested that CBIZ CPAs furnish the Company with a letter
addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter,
which is dated August 21 2025, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
Appointment
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On
August 18, 2025, the Company, with the approval of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers
LLP (“PwC”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025.
During
the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the subsequent interim period prior to PwC’s engagement, neither the Company
nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with PwC 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 consolidated financial statements,
and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that PwC concluded was an important factor considered by the
Company in reaching a decision as to any 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 the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or
a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
