Item 42.0102 ~~Changes~~Results inof ~~Registrant's~~Operations ~~Certifying~~and ~~Accountant~~Financial Condition.

OnThe ~~December~~information ~~29,~~disclosed ~~2018,~~under ~~Hooper~~Item ~~Holmes, Inc~~8.01 (the “Company”), received notice from Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. (“MHM”) that MHM was resigning, effective immediately, as the Company's principal independent registered public accounting firm. Neither the Company’s Audit Committee nor its Board of ~~Directors recommended or approved~~ this ~~change~~report in the Company’s auditors. The Company continues to be subject to bankruptcy proceedings pending before the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). As a result of the Company’s bankruptcy, the Company has elected to adopt a modified reporting program with respect to its reporting obligations under ~~the~~"Monthly ~~federal~~Operating ~~securities~~Report" ~~laws, which the Company believes is consistent with the protection of its investors~~ and ~~creditors~~"Cautionary asNote ~~set~~Regarding ~~forth~~Monthly inOperating ~~the~~Report" ~~SEC’s~~is ~~Exchange~~incorporated ~~Act~~herein Release No. 9660, dated June 30, 1972, and Staff Legal Bulletin Number 2, dated April 15, 1997. While it operates under the modified reporting program, the Company does not expect to produce or file audited financial statements but does intend to continue filing monthly operating reports required by ~~the Bankruptcy Court~~reference.

~~During~~Item ~~the~~8.01 Other Company's two fiscal years ended December 31, 2017, and the subsequent interim period through December 29, 2018, there were no: (1) disagreements with MHM on any matter of accounting principle or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement, or (2) reportable events, except for the following reportable events:Events.

~~MHM~~Monthly ~~advised~~Operating the Company in connection with its audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 that the Company had a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting that resulted from the inadequate design and operation of internal controls related to the accounting for the accounting for non-routine transactions. As a result, misstatements in selling, general and administrative expenses, transaction costs, interest expense, short-term debt, and equity were identified during 2016. The misstatements in the consolidated financial statements were corrected prior to the issuance of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016. The control deficiency created a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in the consolidated financial statements could not be prevented or detected on a timely basis, and therefore the Company concluded that the deficiencies represent a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and its internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2016.Report

The Company did not have sufficient personnel~~ with ~~an appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training commensurate to~~ the ~~Company’s~~United ~~structure.~~States ~~This~~Bankruptcy ~~material~~Court ~~weakness was the result of the combined impact of the significant deficiencies related to journal entries, account reconciliations and inventory pricing.

~~MHM’s~~Confirmation report on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 contained a separate paragraph stating: “The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2016, the Company adopted provisions of ASC 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern , which requires management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related disclosure in certain circumstances. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, negative cash flows from operations and other related liquidity concerns, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These matters and management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.”Hearing
