EXPLANATORY NOTE: Smartmetric, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K/A to amend the Current Report on Form 8-K initially filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on June 8, 2010 to (i) clarify that KBL LLP only audited the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, (ii) correct the spelling of Daszkal Bolton LLP, the Company’s new independent auditor and (iii) to file an amended Exhibit 16.1.
On May 4, 2010, the Board of Directors of Smartmetric, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the dismissal of KBL, LLP (“KBL”) as independent auditors for the Company and its subsidiaries.
KBL’s report on the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 contained an explanatory paragraph indicating that there was substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Other than such statement, no report of KBL on the financial statements of the Company for the year ended June 30, 2009 and through May 4, 2010 contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Company’s most recent fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, their interim reports for the quarters ended September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009 and through May 4, 2010: (i) there have been no disagreements with KBL 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 KBL, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports and (ii) KBL did not advise the Company of any of the events requiring reporting in this Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided to KBL the disclosure contained in this Form 8-K and requested KBL to furnish a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company herein and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of such letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1
On May 4, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company ratified and approved the Company's engagement of Daszkal Bolton, LLP (“Daszkal”) as independent auditors for the Company and its subsidiaries.
During the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 and through May 4, 2010, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted Daszkal regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, or (iii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or event identified in response to Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K (there being none).
