This Form 8-K/A amdends the Form 8-K filed on March 9, 2000 by Power
Kiosks, Inc., a Florida corporation. The purpose of this amendment to Form 8-K
is to change the Registrant's Certifying Accountant and Fiscal Year in
connection with the Share Exchang transaction which took place on February 23,
2000.
Item 4 (a). Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
On May 1, 2000 the Company notified its accountants, Dorra Shaw & Dugan
that they were being dismissed as the Company's independent auditors. The stated
reasons were that pursuant to the share exchange agreement entered into on
February 23, 2000, the Company would be utilizing the auditors of the subsidiary
as the auditor of the consolidated entity. The Company's Board of Directors made
the decision to change accountants.
Audited statements prepared by Dorra Shaw & Dugan contained a going
concern qualification but such financial statements did not contain any
adjustment for uncertainties stated therein. The Company has had no
disagreements with Dorra Shaw & Dugan on any matter of accounting principle or
practice, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.
On May 1, 2000 the Company provided Dorra Shaw & Dugan with a copy of
this disclosure and requested that it furnish a letter to the Company, addressed
to the SEC, stating that it agreed with the statements made herein or the
reasons why it disagreed. On May 1, 2000, the Company received a letter from
Dorra Shaw & Dugan that it agreed with the statements contained herein.
Item 4(b). Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
On May 1, 2000, the Company engaged the firm of KPMG, LLP, Yonge
Corporate Centre, 4120 Yonge Street, Suite 500, North York, Ontario, Canada M2P
2B8 as the Company's independent auditors. Such appointment was accepted by
Patrick A. Ryan, a Practice Leader of the Company. Prior to such engagement, the
Company had not consulted KPMG, LLP on any prior matters, including any matters
relative to the application of accounting principles or any subject of
disagreement with Dorra Shaw & Dugan.
Item 8. Change In Fiscal Year.
On May 1, 2000 the Company's Board of Directors changed the fiscal year
end of the Company to that of its subsidiary, July 31. This action will create
no "gap" in accounting disclosure to the SEC nor to the public as a result of
the Company's filing of a Form 8K-A, to be filed by May 8, 2000 containing
consolidated financial statements reflecting the acquisition and reorganization.
When the Company files consolidated statements through February 29,
2000 in connection with the second amended 8K, the financial information
provided to the Securities and Exchange Commission and to the public will be as
current as if the Company had not changed its fiscal year end and had filed its
second quarter report on Form 10QSB by mid April containing statements through
February 29, 2000 and more current than if the Company had changed its fiscal
year end and had filed its second quarter report on Form 10QSB by mid March
containing financial information through the end of January. Its next report due
will be in mid June, with financial reporting through the end of April.
A copy of the Board Resolution authorizing the change of fiscal year is
filed herewith as Exhibits 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
