ITEM 4.02 | Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review. |
Benda’s previously issued financial statements are being restated as a result of an internal review of its previously issued financial statements, which review was prompted by an SEC comment during its review of the Company’s Form S-1 filing. On June 25, 2008, after a review of the comment and further analysis, Benda determined that it incorrectly calculated its depreciation and amortization expense. Benda also believes such restatements reflect the correction of any errors and omissions of material disclosures in the financial statements in accordance with SFAS 154: Accounting changes and error corrections (as amended).
The Board of Directors has determined that Benda's previously issued financial statements included in its Annual Reports on Form 10-KSB for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and applicable reports of its independent registered public accounting firm, should no longer be relied upon. In addition, the Board of Directors has determined that Benda's previously issued financial statements included in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB for the period ending September 30, 2007 and on Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31,2008 should no longer be relied on.
Accordingly, the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and the quarters ended September 30, 2007 and March 31, 2008 will be amended as of the date of this Report.
