ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OF ASSETS.
On January 31, 2002, the Registrant entered into a stock purchase agreement
("Agreement") to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of W3M, Inc.,
a California corporation doing business as Paradigm Cabling Systems (the
"Company"); and ASHFORD CAPITAL LLC, a California Limited Liability Company,
REGENTS CAPITAL WEST, MICHAEL CUMMINGS, MONDO MARSHALL, GREG WILBER, SANDRA
STEWART and JOHN M. PITKIN ("Sellers"), the shareholders of the Company.
The Registrant acquired the Company for $2,916,667, payable pursuant to the
terms of a Stock Purchase Agreement dated January 31, 2002, a Secured Promissory
Note dated February 1, 2002, and a Pledge Agreement, dated February 1, 2002.
The purchase price was determined through analysis of the Company's recent,
unaudited financial performance. The Company had revenues in excess of $5
million for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2001. The total purchase
price was arrived at through negotiations. The assets of the Company consist of
cash, accounts receivable, and equipment.
The Registrant will provide financial information related to the acquisition in
its next filing of financial results.
On February 4, 2002 and on February 26, 2002, the Registrant issued press
releases, copies of which are attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and
incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANTS.
On March 1, 2002, the Registrant appointed Kabani & Company, Inc. ("Kabani") as
the Company's independent auditors because its prior auditors, Levitz, Zacks &
Ciceric ("LZC") determined it was not independent with respect to its continued
services due to the Registrant's nonpayment of fees.
LZC's audit report on the financial statements of the Company as of
December 31, 2000 expressed its uncertainty as to the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. They cited recurring losses from operations, the
Company's working capital deficiency, and limited cash resources. The Registrant
has not yet filed its Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001.
The Registrant believes there were no disagreements with LZC within the
meaning of Instruction 4 to Item 304 of Regulation S-K on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure in connection with the audit of the Company's financial
statements for the period ended December 31, 2000, or for any subsequent interim
period, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have
caused LZC to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in
connection with its report.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 and through the present,
there have been no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of
Regulation S-K) of the type required to be disclosed by that section. The
Company has not consulted with any other independent auditors regarding 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 financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the
subject matter of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation
S-K and the related instructions) or a reportable event (as defined in Item
304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
On March 1, 2002, the Company engaged Kabani as the Company's independent
auditors for the year ended December 31, 2001, replacing the firm of LZC. The
change was approved by the Company's audit committee.
A letter of LCZ addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission is
included as Exhibit 16 to this Form 8-K. Such letter states that such firm
agrees with the statements made by the Company in this Item 4.
