ITEM 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On September 15, 2004, Ham, Langston & Brezina, L.L.P. (“HL&B”) was dismissed as the independent registered public accounting firm for Trans Max Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”). Effective upon that date, Bagell, Josephs & Company, LLC was appointed as the new independent registered public accounting firm for the Company. The decision to dismiss HL&B and to appoint Bagell, Josephs & Company, LLC was recommended and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The decision to dismiss HL&B was the result of the Company’s conclusion that it needed auditors with offices located nearer their corporate headquarters.
HL&B reports on the Company’s financial statements for the past fiscal year did not contain an adverse opinion, disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. HL&B served as our independent registered public accounting firm for only one year and prior to their May 3, 2003 appointment, Malone & Bailey, PLLC (“Malone & Bailey”) served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
During the Company’s most recent fiscal year and the period from January 1, 2004 through September 15, 2004, there were no disagreements with HL&B on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of HL&B, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report; and there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided HL&B with a copy of this Item and requested that HL&B furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements by the Company in this Item and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A letter from HL&B to such effect is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through the date of this Form 8-K, the Company did not consult Bagell, Josephs & Company, LLC with respect to 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 consolidated financial statements, or any other matters or reportable events listed in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
