Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
On June 19, 2006, Escalon Medical Corp (the "Company") dismissed BDO Seidman, LLP ("BDO Seidman") as the Company’s independent registered public accountants responsible for auditing its financial statements. The decision was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.
The report of BDO Seidman on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2005 and the subsequent interim periods preceding BDO Seidman’s dismissal, the Company had no disagreements with BDO Seidman 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 BDO Seidman, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report on the financial statements for such years or subsequent interim periods.
During the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2005 and the subsequent interim periods preceding BDO Seidman’s dismissal, there were no "reportable events" as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The change in accountants does not result from any dissatisfaction with the quality of professional services that have been rendered by BDO Seidman as the independent accountants of the Company.
The Company hereby incorporates by reference the Form 8-K filed December 30, 2004.
The Company will shortly announce the retention of a new independent auditor.
