After selling assets to CohnReznick, Stabilis Solutions' auditor Ham, Langston & Brezina resigned, and the board immediately named CohnReznick as its replacement. Although the filing reports no disagreements or reportable events, an unanticipated auditor change at a company already under financial pressure — a wider Q1 loss, a terminated vessel charter costing $1.85 million, and a recent loan modification requiring a $5 million cash collateral account — raises governance concerns. The market may question whether the new auditor will take a harder look at the books.
