Truth Social owner Trump Media & Technology Group announced Monday it fired BF Borgers after US regulators accused the accounting firm of “massive fraud.” The decision to fire BF Borgers was expected and required by regulators. The accounting firm did not respond to a request for comment. Trump Media said in a filing that it “dismissed” BF Borgers as its independent registered public accounting firm on Friday.
In the filing, Trump Media said BF Borgers’ audit reports on the company’s financial statements for 2022 and 2023 did not contain an adverse opinion and there were no disagreements over accounting matters. Firing BF Borgers wasn’t optional for Trump Media or any other public company that used the firm. The SEC alerted public companies on Friday they will need to find new accounting firms.
