Section 4 – Matters Related to Accountants and Financial Statements
Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certified Accountant.
On January 17, 2006, Integral Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) was notified by Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) that Grant Thornton has resigned as the Company’s independent auditors.
The Company has commenced the process of identifying another suitable independent, outside auditor.
Grant Thornton’s audit reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2004 and 2005 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended September 30, 2004 and 2005 and the subsequent interim period preceding the date of Grant Thornton’s resignation, there were no “disagreements,” as that term is defined in Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K and the instructions related thereto, with Grant Thornton on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Grant Thornton, would have caused Grant Thornton to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its report.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended September 30, 2004 and 2005 and the subsequent interim period preceding the date of Grant Thornton’s resignation, there were no “reportable events,” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the instructions related thereto.
The Company has provided Grant Thornton with a copy of the disclosures set forth above in Item 4.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and has requested that Grant Thornton furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether Grant Thornton agrees with the statements set forth above in Item 4.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and, if not, stating the respects in which Grant Thornton does not agree. A copy of the letter from Grant Thornton to the Securities and Exchange Commission dated January 23, 2006 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
