Section 4 - Matters Related to Accountants and Financial Statements


Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant


On January 17, 2012, Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed Mantyla McReynolds LLC as our independent registered public accounting firm.  Mantyla McReynolds LLC’s report on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010, dated April 15, 2011, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that its report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 contained a going concern qualification as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.


Our board of directors approved the dismissal of Mantyla McReynolds LLC and there were no disagreements between the Company and Mantyla McReynolds LLC on any matter regarding accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 or any subsequent interim period preceding the date of dismissal.

 

There were no reportable events (as that term is used in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) between the Company and Mantyla McReynolds LLC occurring during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 or any subsequent interim period preceding the date of dismissal.  


On January 17, 2012, the Company engaged Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC, as our independent registered public accounting firm.  The decision to engage Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC was approved by our board of directors and during the two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and through the date of engagement, neither we nor anyone on our behalf consulted with Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC 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 our financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to us nor oral advice was provided that Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC 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 either the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event.


We provided a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K to Mantyla McReynolds LLC prior to filing this report and we requested that Mantyla McReynolds LLC furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made in this report.  Mantyla McReynolds LLC has furnished the requested letter and it is attached as exhibit 16.1
