Change in Certifying Accountants (Form 8-K)

Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

On June 22, 2026, Liquidmetal Technologies, Inc., (the "Company") was notified that Simon & Edward LLP ("S&E") acquired, effective as of June 15, 2026, the attest business of BCRG Group ("BCRG"). As a result of the transaction, on June 26, 2026, the Company's Board of Directors simultaneously dismissed BCRG as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm and approved the appointment of S&E as the Company's new independent registered public accounting firm. The services previously provided by BCRG will now be provided by S&E.

The audit reports of BCRG on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and the subsequent interim period through March 31, 2026, there were no (i) "disagreements," as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions, between the Company and BCRG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to BCRG's satisfaction, would have caused BCRG to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in connection with its reports on the consolidated financial statements for such years and interim period or (ii) "reportable events," as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

During the Company's two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and the subsequent interim period through March 31, 2026, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted S&E regarding (i) either 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 financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that S&E 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 described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions, or a "reportable event," as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided to BCRG a copy of the statements made in this Item 4.01. Attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K is a letter from BCRG to the Securities and Exchange Commission, dated June 26, 2026, stating that it agrees with these statements.
