As previously disclosed, on September 11, 2023, following the completion of the merger between the subsidiary of Dianthus Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company," formerly known as Magenta Therapeutics, Inc.) and Dianthus Therapeutics OpCo, Inc. (formerly known as Dianthus Therapeutics, Inc.), the Audit Committee of the Company approved the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company. The Company’s engagement of Deloitte was subject to completion of Deloitte’s standard client acceptance procedures and execution of an engagement letter, which was fully executed by the Company on October 19, 2023.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the subsequent interim period through October 19, 2023, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted Deloitte regarding (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 no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company by Deloitte that Deloitte 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 the subject of a “disagreement” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
