Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
As described in Items 4.01(a) and (b) below, Golden Spirit Enterprises Ltd. (the "Company" or "Registrant"), has dismissed Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton LaBonte LLP, Chartered Accountants ("DMCL") as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and engaged L.L. Bradford & Company, Certified Public Accountants & Consultants, LLC ("LLB") as its new independent registered public accounting firm. As described in the third paragraph of Item 4.01(a)(iii) below, the change in independent registered public accounting firms is not the result of any disagreement with DMCL.
Item 4.01 (a) Previous Independent Accountants
| | |
| (i) | On November 20, 2006, the Company dismissed DMCL as its independent registered public accounting firm. The Company’s Board of Directors approved the decision to change independent accountants. |
| (ii) | The report of DMCL on the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified, but was modified as to uncertainty due to substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The report of DMCL on the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified, but was modified as to uncertainty due to substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. |
| (iii) | In connection with their audits for the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005 and through the subsequent interim periods preceding the change there have been no disagreements with DMCL 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 DMCL would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on financial statements for such years. |
| (iv) | The Company has requested DMCL to furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter, dated November 24, 2006, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K. |
Item 4.01 (b) New Independent Accountants
On November 20, 2006, the Company engaged LLB as the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, and to perform procedures related to the financial statements included in the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, beginning with, and including, the quarter ended December 31, 2006. The Company’s Board of Directors made the decision to engage LLB and that decision was approved and adopted. The Company has not consulted with LLB during its two most recent fiscal years or during any subsequent interim period prior to its appointment as auditor regarding either (i) the application of accounting principle to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant’s consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to the Company nor oral advice was provided that LLB concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a reportable event (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
In deciding to select LLB, the Company’s Board of Directors considered LLB’s experience and expertise related to public companies as well as reviewed auditor independence issues and existing commercial relationships with LLB. The Board of Director’s concluded that LLB has no commercial relationship that would impair its independence and had the appropriate expertise that the Company required regarding its current operations.
DMCL had been the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm since 2001. The Board of Directors and the Company thank DMCL for its service to the Company over the past 5 years. The Audit
Committee and the Company believe DMCL consistently provided quality services to the Company. The Company expects to similarly receive long-term quality service from LLB.
