Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

Dismissal of Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On February 9, 2012, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) was notified on behalf of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of SYNNEX Corporation (the “Company”) that PwC was terminated as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

PwC’s report on the Company’s financial statements for the past two years ended November 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended November 30, 2011 and 2010 and the subsequent interim period through February 9, 2012, the Company did not have any disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PwC, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report. Also during this period, there have been no reportable events as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has provided PwC with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and has requested that PwC furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. The letter from PwC is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this current report on Form 8-K.

Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On February 9, 2012 the Audit Committee approved KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm for the year ending November 30, 2012, effective immediately.

In deciding to select KPMG, the Audit Committee reviewed auditor independence issues and existing commercial relationships with KPMG and concluded that KPMG has no commercial relationship with the Company that would impair its independence. During the Company’s fiscal years ended November 30, 2011 and 2010, and through the subsequent period prior to engaging KPMG, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with KPMG regarding any of the matters or events described in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
