EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Form 8-K/A is being filed as an Amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Iconic Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 7, 2012 (the “Original Report”) for the purpose of referencing the correct company year as December 31, 2009 rather than July 2, 2007 in the second paragraph on page 2 of the Original Report. This Amendment also corrects the date that the auditor commenced being the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company. Except for the filing of said paragraph in Section 4, Item 4.01 and obtaining an updated letter from the former auditor which is being filed herewith as an exhibit, this Form 8-K/A does not change the Original Report. Accordingly, this Form 8-K/A should be read in conjunction with the Original Report.
Section 4. Matters Related to Accountants and Financial Statements
Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
The Termination of Studer
Studer was the independent registered public accounting firm for the Registrant from June 10, 2009 until November 7, 2012. None of Studer's reports on the Registrant’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009 or for the year ended December 31, 2010 (a) contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or (b) was modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, or (c) contained any disagreements on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Studer, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports. None of the reportable events set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K occurred during the period in which Studer served as the Registrant’s principal independent accountants.
The Registrant has provided Studer with a copy of this disclosure and has requested that Studer furnish it with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements, and if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of the letter from Studer addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission dated November 13, 2012 is filed as Exhibit 16.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
