Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On December 5, 2013, Fresh Promise Foods, Inc.’s (the “Company”) independent registered public accounting firm contacted the Company regarding a potential misstatement in the Company’s financial statements contained in its quarterly reports for the first and second quarters of 2013. On December 5, 2013, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) and chief executive officer, after consultation with Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, concluded that the following financial statements contained material misstatements: (i) the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2013, filed in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 23, 2013; and (ii) the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2013, filed in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q with the SEC on August 14, 2013. The foregoing financial statements contained material misstatements pertaining to the accounting treatment with respect to the recording of certain convertible promissory notes issued by the Company. The misstatements described herein do not impact the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2013, filed in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q with the SEC on November 19, 2013.
