Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

On October 3, 2022, Friedman LLP (“Friedman”) resigned as MICT, Inc.’s (the “Company”) independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately. The Company is working on a merger agreement with Tingo, Inc. and so the Company decided to engage Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. Certified Public Accountant, a firm in the Deloitte Global Network (“Deloitte”).

The reports of Friedman on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion nor were any such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.

During the recent fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 and through the date of this Current Report, there have been no (i) disagreements with Friedman on any matter or accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which connects with its reports; or (ii) “reportable events” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. Friedman did not act as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020.

The Company has provided Friedman with a copy of the above disclosures and requested that Friedman furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) stating whether or not it agrees with the above statement. A copy of Friedman’s letter, dated October 7, 2022 is filed as exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report of Form 8-K.

On October 6, 2022, the Company engaged Deloitte as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm.

During the recent fiscal year ending December 31, 2021, and through the date of this Report, the Company has not consulted Deloitte regarding (i) application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, either completed or proposed, (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, or (iii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv)) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v)).
