Section 4. Matters Related to Accountants and Financial Statements
Item 4.01 Changes in Company's Certifying Accountant.
(a) Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On June 9, 2016, Golden Matrix Group, Inc. ("GMGI") dismissed its independent registered public accounting firm, Scrudato & Co., PA. and pursuant to his resignation. Scrudato reviewed our Form 10-Q Quarterly Report filed on December 9, 2015 for the period ending October 31, 2015, and no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion exists, and no reports were qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.
During the quarter ended October 31, 2015, and through the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016, up to the date of dismissal of Scrudato & Co., PA, (a) there were no disagreements with Scrudato & Co. 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 Scrudato & Co., would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the financial statements for such year and (b) there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
We have provided a copy of the above disclosures to Scrudato & Co. and requested them to provide us a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not Scrudato & Co. agrees with the above disclosures. A copy of Scrudato & Co.'s response letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
(b) New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On June 9, 2016, our board of directors approved the engagement of BF Borgers, CPA PC ("Borgers"), as the Company's new independent registered public accounting firm. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015, and the preceding interim period prior to the engagement of Borgers, the Company has not consulted Borgers regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, either completed or proposed; (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided and none was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (iii) any matter that was either the subject of a "disagreement" or "reportable event" (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) and Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, respectively).
The Company's engagement of BF Borgers, CPA PC as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2016 became effective June 8, 2016 upon execution of the engagement letter on such date.
