Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

(a) On July 17, 2015, the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Rogers Corporation (the “Company”) approved the engagement of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm and the dismissal of Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”), effective on July 31, 2015, following the filing of our second quarter Form 10-Q. This change was a result of a competitive bidding process involving several accounting firms.

The reports of EY on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.

During the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the subsequent interim period through July 17, 2015, there were (i) no disagreements (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the Company and EY on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of EY would have caused EY to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such years, or (ii) “reportable events” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

The Company has provided EY with a copy of this Form 8-K and requested that EY provide the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not EY agrees with the above disclosures. A copy of EY’s letter, dated July 23, 2015, is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.

(b) During the Company’s fiscal years ending December 31, 2014 and 2013 and through the subsequent interim period through July 17, 2015, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted PwC regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered with respect to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that PwC 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).
