SECTION 4 – Matters Related to Accountants and Financial Statements

 

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

On July 27, 2012, Silberstein Ungar, PLLC (the “Former Accountant”) was dismissed as the Company’s accountant. The Company has engaged Sadler, Gibb & Associates (“New Accountant”) as its principal accountants effective July 29, 2012. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Company’s board of directors.

 

The Former Accountant’s audit reports on the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended April 2011 and 2010 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that the audit reports on the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended April 2011 and 2010 contained an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

During the years ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, and through the interim period ended July 27 , 2012, there were no “disagreements” (as such term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with the Former Accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of the Former Accountant would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements for such periods.

 

During the years ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, and through the interim period ended July 27 , 2012, there were the following “reportable events” (as such term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K). As disclosed in Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012, and Part I, Item 4 of the Company’s Form 10-Q, for the quarterly periods ended July 31, 2011, October 31, 2011 and January 31, 2012, the Company’s management determined that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of the end of such periods due to the existence of material weaknesses related to the following:

 

(i)inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and

 

(ii)insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both United States generally accepted accounting principles and Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines.

 

Other than as disclosed above, there were no reportable events during the years ended April 30, 2012 and 2011 and through the interim period ended July 27 , 2012. The Company’s Board of Directors discussed the subject matter of each reportable event with the Former Accountant. The Company authorized the Former Accountant to respond fully and without limitation to all requests of the New Accountant concerning all matters related to the annual and interim periods audited and reviewed by the Former Accountant, including with respect to the subject matter of each reportable event.

 

The New Accountant was the independent registered public accountant of GroveWare Technolgies Ltd. (“GroveWare”), a privately held Delaware corporation which merged with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant on April 9, 2012. As such, the New Accountant audited the balance sheets of GroveWare as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended, and issued a report related to these financial statements dated April 4, 2012 (the “GroveWare Report”). These financial statements and the GroveWare Report appear in the Registrant’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 10, 2012. The GroveWare Report contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle, except that it included an explanatory paragraph with respect to GroveWare’s ability, in light of its accumulated deficit and history of losses, to continue as a going concern.

 

On July 27, 2012, the Company provided the New Accountant with its disclosures in the Current Report on Form 8-K to provide it the opportunity to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission containing any new information, clarification of the Company's expression of its views, or the respects in which it does not agree with the statements made by the Company in response to Item 304 of Regulation S-K. The New Accountant’s response is filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
