CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report on Form 8-K contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We intend the forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements in these sections. All statements regarding our expected financial position, business and financing plans are forward-looking statements. These statements can sometimes be identified by our use of forward-looking words such as "may," "will," "should," "expect," "anticipate," "project," "designed," "estimate," "plan" and "continue." Although we believe that our expectations in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot promise that our expectations will turn out to be correct. These forward-lo oking statements generally relate to plans and objectives for future operations and are based upon reasonable estimates and assumptions regarding future results or trends. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to Technest Holdings, Inc. ("Technest", the "Company", "we" or "our"). Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from Technest expectations include the uncertainty regarding Technest's ability to repay existing indebtedness, lack of continuing operations, possible inability of Technest to continue in business and other risks detailed from time to time in Technest's SEC reports. No assurance can be given that investors of Technest will retain any level of value. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, the Company's future performance and actual results of operations may vary significantly from those anticipate d, projected, believed, expected, intended or implied. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any of the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they were made.
ITEM 4.01
CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On April 27, 2005, we engaged Wolf & Company, PC (“Wolf”) as the independent accountants to conduct an audit of our wholly owned subsidiary, Genex Technologies, Inc. (“Genex”), for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004. The Company has not consulted Wolf with regard to the application of accounting principles to any transaction, the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements or any matter that was either the subject of a

disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-B) during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004 or the subsequent interim period.
At the current time, there has been no change in the principal independent accountants of the Company. Wolf has been engaged solely to perform the audit of Genex’s financial statements for fiscal year 2004. The Company’s principal independent accountants are expected to rely on the report of Wolf regarding the financial statements of Genex for fiscal year 2004.
