Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

(a) Resignation of Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

 

On December 28, 2017, (the “Company”) dismissed Weld Asia Associates (“Weld Asia”) as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company, effective immediately. The dismissal of Weld Asia was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

The audit reports of Weld Asia on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the two most recent fiscal years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that its report contained a going concern qualification as to the Company’s ability to continue.

 

During the two most recent fiscal years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and the subsequent interim period through November 13, 2017, there were no (i) disagreements with Weld Asia on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their report, or (ii) reportable events (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

 

The audit reports of Weld Asia on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 did not contain any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. The audit reports of Weld Asia on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 did not contain any adverse opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

 

The Company has provided Weld Asia with a copy of the disclosures in this Current Report and the Company requested a letter from Weld Asia addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of that letter is attached as an exhibit to this Current Report.

 

(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

 

On December 28, 2017, concurrent with the dismissal of Weld Asia the Company, upon the Board of Directors’ approval, engaged Total Asia Associates (“Total Asia”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

 

During the two most recent fiscal years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and the subsequent interim period through December 28, 2017, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted Total Asia regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
