Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

(a)       Former Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. On February 25, 2020, the Board of Directors of Digital Development Partners, Inc. (the “Company”) chose not to renew the engagement of MaloneBailey, LLP (“MB”), which was then serving as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company, and notified MB that it would be dismissed as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company, effective immediately. The Company has authorized MB to respond fully to the inquiries of Farmer, Fuqua & Huff, P.C., the successor auditors.

 

MB’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that MB’s reports for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, included an explanatory paragraph indicating that there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the subsequent interim period through February 25, 2020: (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and MB on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of MB, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the Company’s financial statements; and (ii) there were no “reportable events” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K), except for the material weakness described in Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

The Company has provided MB with the disclosures under this Item 4.01(a) and has requested and received from MB a copy of the letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that MB agrees with the above statements. A copy of the letter from MB is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

(b)       New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. On February 25, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the appointment of Farmer, Fuqua & Huff, P.C. (FFH) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the subsequent interim period through February 25, 2020, neither the Company nor anyone acting on behalf of the Company had consulted FFH 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 the Company’s financial statements, nor did FFH provide a written report or oral advice to the Company that FFH concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
