Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
Effective June 1, 2013 Methes Energies International Ltd.’s (the “Company”) independent registered public accounting firm, MSCM LLP (“MSCM”) combined its practice (the “Merger”) with MNP LLP (“MNP”). As a result of the Merger, MSCM effectively resigned as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and MNP, as the successor to MSCM following the Merger, was engaged as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Company’s Audit Committee was notified of the Merger and the effective resignation of MSCM and approved the engagement of MNP.
The reports of MSCM on the financial statements of the Company for the years ended November 30, 2011 and 2012 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle. In connection with its audits of the years ended November 30, 2011 and 2012 and reviews of the Company’s financial statements through June 1, 2013, there were no disagreements with MSCM 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 MSCM, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements for such years.
The Company has furnished to MSCM the statements made in this Item 4.01. Attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K is MSCM’s letter to the Commission, dated June 4, 2013 regarding these statements.
During the two most recent fiscal years and through June 1, 2013, the Company has not consulted with MNP on any matter that (i) involved 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, in each case where a written report was provided or oral advice was provided that MNP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
