Insights

Accounting & Governance Analyst

Auditor change occurs amid going concern and control weaknesses.

Interactive Strength Inc. replaced Deloitte & Touche LLP with Cherry Bekaert LLP as its independent auditor for the year ending December 31, 2026. The company reports no disagreements with Deloitte on accounting, disclosure, or audit scope matters.

Deloitte’s prior reports for 2024 and 2025 included a going concern explanatory paragraph, flagging substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue operating. The company also confirms material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that remained unremediated as of December 31, 2025.

The combination of a going concern paragraph and persistent control weaknesses is structurally unfavorable, but these issues were already disclosed in prior annual reports. The new auditor engagement is an important governance development, and future filings will show whether internal controls improve and the going concern emphasis is resolved.

independent registered public accounting firm regulatory

"dismissed Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm"

An independent registered public accounting firm is an outside accounting company officially registered with the government regulator to examine and report on a public company's financial records and controls. Investors treat its reports like an impartial inspector’s certificate — they add credibility to financial statements, help spot errors or misleading claims, and reduce the risk that shareholders are relying on unchecked or biased numbers.

going concern financial

"included an explanatory paragraph relating to substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern"

Going concern is the accounting assumption that a company will keep operating and meeting its obligations for the foreseeable future. The phrase matters most when a company or its auditors disclose substantial doubt about it, a formal warning that the business may not have enough resources to continue without raising money, restructuring, or selling assets. That language in a filing or press release signals elevated financial risk.

material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting financial

"the Company identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting related to (i) a lack of appropriate policies and resources"

reportable events regulatory

"there were no “reportable events” (within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K)"

Reportable events are significant incidents or changes a company is legally required to disclose to regulators and the public, such as major safety problems, legal actions, financial irregularities, or management changes. They matter to investors because these events can alter a company’s risk profile or future performance, much like a dashboard warning light signals a problem that could affect a car’s safety or reliability. Timely disclosure helps investors make informed decisions and maintain market fairness.

Emerging growth company regulatory

"Emerging growth company"

An emerging growth company is a recently public or smaller public firm that qualifies for temporary, lighter regulatory and disclosure rules to reduce the cost and effort of being public. For investors, it means the company may provide less historical financial detail and face fewer reporting requirements than larger firms, so it can grow more quickly but also carries higher uncertainty—like buying a promising early-stage product with fewer user reviews.

Audit Committee regulatory

"the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of Interactive Strength Inc."

A company's audit committee is a small group of board members who act like independent inspectors for the firm's finances, overseeing how financial reports are prepared, monitoring internal controls, and managing the relationship with external auditors. Investors care because a strong audit committee reduces the risk of accounting errors, fraud, or misleading statements, making financial statements more trustworthy and helping protect shareholder value.

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On June 26, 2026, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of Interactive Strength Inc. (the "Company") dismissed Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

Deloitte’s audit reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for 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, except that the reports included an explanatory paragraph relating to substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years, which ended on December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the subsequent interim period through June 26, 2026, there were no “disagreements” (within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) between the Company and Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to Deloitte’s satisfaction, would have caused Deloitte to make reference to the subject matter of disagreements in connection with their reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Except as noted in the following paragraph, there were no “reportable events” (within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) during the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through June 26, 2026.

As disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, the Company identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting related to (i) a lack of appropriate policies and resources to develop and operate effective internal control over financial reporting and (ii) a lack of formalized internal controls and segregation of duties surrounding the financial transactions. As further disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the material weakness remained unremediated as of December 31, 2025. Specifically, deficiencies persisted regarding the effective control environment and control activities, formal risk assessment, adequateness of processes and controls for communicating information among relevant parties, and appropriate selection, development and performance of monitoring activities.

The Audit Committee has discussed the subject matter of these reportable events with Deloitte. The Company has authorized Deloitte to respond fully to the inquiries of the successor independent registered public accounting firm concerning the subject matter of the reportable events.

In accordance with Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, the Company provided Deloitte with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that Deloitte furnish it with a letter addressed to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether Deloitte agrees with the above statements of the Company herein and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. Deloitte furnished the requested letter, and a copy is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On June 26, 2026, the Audit Committee approved the engagement of Cherry Bekaert LLP (“Cherry Bekaert”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through June 26, 2026, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted Cherry Bekaert regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Cherry Bekaert concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or (iii) 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 of the type described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
