ITEM4.01CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTNAT

 

Previous independent registered public accounting firm

 

(a) On May 8, 2012, Proteonomix, Inc. (the “Registrant” or the “Company”) was notified by KJPDH & COMPANY (“KJPDH & COMPANY”) that they have resigned as the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm. The resignation of KJPDH & COMPANY as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was accepted by the Company’s Board of Directors on May 9, 2012. KJPDH & COMPANY issued no reports on the Company’s financial statements and thus no reports contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and such reports were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.

 

KJPDH & COMPANY had been retained by the Company on April 25, 2012. The previous independent registered accounting firm, KBL, LLP, issued financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 containing explanatory paragraphs which noted that there was substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as the Company has negative working capital, and substantial accumulated deficits. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

During the period from April 25, 2012 through May 8, 2012, the Company had not had any disagreements with KJPDH & COMPANY on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to KJPDH & COMPANY’s satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the Company’s financial statements for such periods.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and through May 8, 2012, there were no reportable events, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

The Company provided KJPDH & COMPANY with a copy of this disclosure set forth under this Item 4.01 and was requested to furnish a letter addressed to the Securities & Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements.

 

A copy of this letter from KJPDH & COMPANY is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.

 

New independent registered public accounting firm

 

On May 11, 2012 (the “Engagement Date”), the Company engaged Demetrius & Company, L.L.C. (“Demetrius”) as its independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to engage JPDH as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and through May 11, 2012, (the date Demetrius was appointed), the Company did not consult Demetrius with respect to the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s Financial Statements, or any other matters or reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
