SECTION 4 – MATTERS REALTED TO ACCOUNTANTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Item 4.01        Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

On March 24, 2021, the Board of Directors as well as the Audit Committee of Body and Mind Inc. (the “Company”) approved and authorized the dismissal of Marcum LLP, (“Marcum”), as its independent registered public accounting firm. On the same date, the Board of Directors as well as the Audit Committee approved and authorized the engagement of the accounting firm of Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC, as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm.

 

Marcum’s report on our financial statements dated December 15, 2020, for the most recent fiscal year ended July 31, 2020, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or qualification or modification as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

 

In connection with the audit of our financial statements for the most recent fiscal year ended July 31, 2020, and in the subsequent interim period through the effective date of dismissal on March 24, 2021, there were no disagreements, resolved or not, with Marcum on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Marcum would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with their report on the financial statements for such year.

 

During the Company’s most recent fiscal year and the period through the effective date of dismissal of Marcum on March 24, 2021, there were no reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

We provided Marcum with a copy of this current report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and requested that they furnish us with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether they agree with the statements made in this current report on Form 8-K, and if not, stating the aspects with which they do not agree. The letter from Marcum dated March 26, 2021, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this current report on Form 8-K.

 

During the two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through the effective date of appointment of Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC (“Sadler”), on March 24, 2021, we had not, nor had any person on our behalf, consulted with Sadler regarding either the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, nor had Sadler provided to us a written report or oral advice regarding such principles or audit opinion on any matter that was the subject of a disagreement as set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K or a reportable event as set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K with our former independent registered public accounting firm.
