Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On September 9, 2009, the Board of Directors of Miller Diversified Corporation (the “Company”) approved the dismissal of Cordovano and Honeck LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2009 and the engagement of Paritz & Company, P. A. as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2009, subject to the completion of their customary client acceptance procedures. The dismissal of Cordovano and Honeck LLP is effective as of September 9, 2009.
The report of Cordovano and Honeck LLP on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for each of the fiscal years ended August 31, 2008 and 2007, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. However, Cordovano and Honeck LLP’s reports each contained an explanatory paragraph about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2007 and through August 31, 2008, (i) there were no disagreements with Cordovano and Honeck LLP 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 Cordovano and Honeck LLP, would have caused Cordovano and Honeck LLP to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the financial statements for such years, and (ii) there were no “reportable events” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
During each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2007 and through August 31, 2008, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with Paritz & Company, P. A. with respect to either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and no written report or oral advice was provided by Paritz & Company, P. A. to the Company that Paritz & Company, P. A. concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to that Item) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
