Item 4.01 |
Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant. |
|
(a) |
Previous Independent Accountants. |
On November 24, 2008, ESPRE Solutions, Inc., (the “Company”) dismissed Sweeney, Gates & Co. (“Sweeney Gates”) as its independent accountants. The Company’s Board of Directors participated in and approved the decision to change independent accountants.
Sweeney Gates’s audit reports on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as of and for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 (collectively, the “Financial Statements”) did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty,
audit scope or accounting principles.
In connection with Sweeney Gates’s audits for the two fiscal years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 and the subsequent interim period through November 24, 2008, there have been no disagreements with Sweeney Gates 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 Sweeney Gates, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its audit reports on the Financial Statements. Additionally, during the two most recent fiscal years and through June 30, 2008, there have been no reportable events, as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Registration S-K.
The Company requested that Sweeney Gates furnish to the Company a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter, dated November 24, 2008, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Report.
|
(b) |
New Independent Accountants. |
On November 24, 2008, the Company engaged Whitley Penn (“Penn”) as the Company’s new independent accountants to audit the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008. The Company’s Board of Directors approved the Company’s engagement of Penn.
During the two most recent fiscal years and through November 24, 2008, the Company has not consulted with Penn 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 on the Company’s financial statements, and neither
a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Penn concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of either a disagreement (as defined in Item 304 (a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K or the related instructions thereto) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304 (a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
