Item 4. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of M.H. MEYERSON & CO., INC., d/b/a Crown Financial Group, Inc., (the “Company”) annually considers and recommends to the Board the selection of the Company’s independent public accountants. As recommended by the Company’s Audit Committee, the Board of Directors on June 12, 2003 decided no longer to engage Sanville & Company (“Sanville”) as the Company’s independent public accountant and engaged Ernst & Young LLP to serve as the Company’s independent public accountants.
The report of Sanville for each of the fiscal years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002, and the interim period from February 1, 2003 through June 12, 2003, there were no disagreements between the Company and Sanville on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Sanville, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report.
During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002, and the interim period from February 1, 2003 through June 12, 2003, the Company did not consult with Ernst & Young LLP on (i) either 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 financial statements; or (ii) the subject of any disagreement, as defined in Item 304 (a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions, or a reportable event, as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
A letter from Sanville is attached as Exhibit 16 to this Form 8-K.
