Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
-----------------------------------------------------
Effective October 24, 2001, NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. dismissed Arthur
Andersen LLP, as its independent accountants, and engaged Stonefield Josephson,
Inc as its new independent accountants. Arthur Andersen LLP's audit report on
the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999, did not
contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and no such report was
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
Arthur Andersen LLP's audit report on the Company's financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2000, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer
of opinion, and no such report was qualified or modified as to audit scope or
accounting principles, however, their opinion on the financial statements for
the year ended December 31, 2000, contained an uncertainty that stated, "the
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations
and the current cash position of the Company raises substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these
matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty."
During the Company's two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2000
and 1999 and the subsequent interim period through October 24, 2001, there were
no disagreements between the Company and Arthur Andersen LLP on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to their satisfaction,
would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the
disagreement in their report.
During the Company's two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2000
and 1999 and the subsequent interim period through October 24, 2001, there were
no reportable events.
The decision to change independent accountants was approved by the Board of
Directors on October 23, 2001.
The Company announced that it has engaged Stonefield Josephson, Inc., to
succeed Arthur Andersen LLP as independent auditors of the Company.
