Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On December 3, 2020, Iconic Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notification from its independent registered public accountants, BMKR, LLP (“BMKR”), that they had resigned as the Company’s auditors. On December 14, 2020, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) elected to retain Fei Qi, CPA (“Fei Qi”) as its independent registered public accounting firm to replace BMKR.
The reports of BMKR on the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except to indicate that there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and all subsequent interim periods preceding such change in auditors, there was no disagreement with BMKR on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountant, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report; nor has BMKR ever presented a written report, or otherwise communicated in writing to the Company or the Board the existence of any “disagreement” or “reportable event” within the meaning of Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
The Company has authorized BMKR to respond fully to the inquiries of Fei Qi, and BMKR has provided the Company with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating that it agrees with the above statements, as required by Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 16.1.
