Item 4.01 Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of Chegg, Inc. (the “Company”) conducted a competitive process to determine the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026. The Company invited several independent registered public accounting firms to participate in this process, including Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”), which served as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm and audited the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. As a result of this process and following careful deliberation, on April 13, 2026, the Audit Committee dismissed Deloitte as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

Deloitte’s reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 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 2024, and during the subsequent interim period through April 13, 2026, there were no (i) disagreements between the Company and Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures which disagreements, if not resolved to Deloitte’s satisfaction, would have caused Deloitte to make reference thereto in its reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and (ii) reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

In accordance with Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, the Company provided Deloitte with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that Deloitte furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of Deloitte’s letter, dated April 14, 2026, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On April 13, 2026, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, effective immediately.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and during the subsequent interim period through April 13, 2026, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with Grant Thornton regarding (i) 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 consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Grant Thornton 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 defined 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.
