Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

(a) Resignation of Certifying Accountant

 

On April 8, 2020 Tama, Budaj and Raab, P.C. (“TBR”) resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Parks! America, Inc. (the “Company”). TBR has determined they will discontinue providing audit services to public companies required to report under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules. As a result of this decision, TBR can no longer serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

 

The audit reports of TBR on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

 

For the fiscal years ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018, there were no “disagreements” (as such term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K (“Regulation S-K”) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) with TBR on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of TBR would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the Company’s financial statements for such periods. There were also no disagreements with TBR through the interim period subsequent to September 29, 2019 preceding their resignation. There were no reportable events within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) for Regulation S-K. For the years ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018, and through the interim period ended December 29, 2019, there were no reportable events (as such term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K).

 

The Company provided TBR with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the SEC and requested that TBR provide the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether TBR agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of that letter, dated April 10, 2020 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Report.

 

(b) Engagement of New Certifying Accountant

 

Effective April 8, 2020, GBQ Partners (“GBQ”) was engaged as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, for the fiscal year ending September 27, 2020.

 

During the fiscal years ended September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018, and through the subsequent interim period preceding GBQ’s engagement, the Company did not consult with GBQ on either (1) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, the type of audit opinion that may be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and GBQ did not provide a written report or oral advice to the Company that GBQ concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (2) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
