Item 4.01
Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On May 28, 2020, Global Boatworks Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed Salberg & Company, P.A. (“Salberg”) as its independent registered public accounting firm. The dismissal was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on May 28, 2020. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and the subsequent interim period through Sepember 30, 2019, there were no (i) disagreements between the Company and Salberg on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, any of which, if not resolved to Salberg’s satisfaction, would have caused Salberg to make reference thereto in its audit report on the financial statements of the Company for such period, or (ii) “reportable events” within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. There were no disputes or disagreements between the Company and Salberg during the time it was the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm through the date of dismissal.
The Company provided Salberg with a copy of this disclosure before its filing with the SEC. The Company requested that Salberg provide us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. That letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1
New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Company’s Board of Directors appointed Daszkal Bolton LLP (“Daszkal”) as its new independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of May 28, 2020. During the two most recent fiscal years and through the date of the Company’s engagement of Daszkal, the Company did not consult with Daszkal regarding either (1) 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, or (2) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Regulation S-K Item 304(a)(1)(v)), during the two most recent fiscal years.
Prior to engaging Daszkal, Daszkal did not provide the Company with either written or oral advice that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision to engage Daszkal as its independent accounting firm.
