ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
On July 19, 2004, Navarre Corporation (the "Registrant") dismissed
Ernst & Young LLP ("E&Y") as the Registrant's independent auditors. On July 19,
2004, the Registrant engaged Grant Thornton LLP as its successor independent
audit firm. The Registrant's dismissal of E&Y and engagement of Grant Thornton
LLP was approved by the Registrant's Audit Committee on July 19, 2004.
E&Y served as the Registrant's independent accountants to audit the
Registrant's two most recent fiscal year ends. E&Y's reports on the Registrant's
financial statements for each of those years (fiscal years ended March 31, 2003
and 2004) did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were
not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles.
During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal year ends (fiscal years
ended March 31, 2003 and 2004) and through the interim period until E&Y's
dismissal, there were no disagreements with E&Y 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 E&Y,
would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the
financial statements for such years.
The Registrant has provided E&Y with a copy of the above disclosures in
response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K in conjunction with filing of this
Form 8-K/A. The Registrant has requested that E&Y deliver to the Registrant a
letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it
agrees with the statements made by the Registrant in response to Item 304(a) of
Regulation S-K, and if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree.
E&Y's letter is filed herewith as Exhibit 16. A copy of the press
release announcing the dismissal of E&Y and the engagement of Grant Thornton LLP
is incorporated herein and attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
