Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

Advanced BioMedical Technologies, Inc.  (“we”, “our”, “us”, the “Company”) was notified in writing that, effective from November 16, 2015, Baker Tilly Hong Kong Limited (“BTHK”), resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company and with the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, AWC (CPA) Limited (“AWC”) was then engaged as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

 

The audit reports of BTHK on the financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended October 31, 2014 and 2013 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that the audit reports of BTHK for the financial statements of the Company as of October 31, 2014 and 2013 indicated uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern because the Company had working capital and stockholders’ deficits.

 

In connection with the audits of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014 and 2013 and through the date of this Current Report, there were: (i) no disagreements between the Company and BTHK on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of BTHK, would have caused BTHK to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in their reports on the Company’s financial statements for such years, and (ii) no reportable events within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.


During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended October 31, 2014 and 2013 and through November 16, 2015, the Company did not consult with AWC either on (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that may be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and AWC did not provide either a written report or oral advice to the Company that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) the subject of any disagreement, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions, or a reportable even within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

The Company has provided BTHK a copy of the disclosures in this Form 8-K and has requested that BTHK furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not BTHK agrees with the Company’s statements above. A copy of the letter dated November 16, 2015, furnished by BTHK in response to that request is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
