Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

On April 26, 2016, China Ginseng Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was informed by its independent registered public accounting firm, Cowan, Gunteski & Co., P.A. (“Cowan”), that it has transferred its SEC practice to MSPC. As a result of the transfer and upon notice by Cowan to the Company on April 26, 2016, Cowan in effect has resigned as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and MSPC became the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The engagement of MSPC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was ratified and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on April 27, 2016.

 

From February 28, 2013 when Cowan was engaged, and subsequently through April 26, 2016, there were no disagreements between us and Cowan on any matter of accounting principals or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Cowan would have caused Cowan to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports.

 

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 and through April 26, 2016, the Company did not consult with MSPC on (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that may be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and MSPC did not provide either a written report or oral advice to the Company that MSPC concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) the subject of any disagreement, as defined in Item 304 (a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.

 

The Company has provided Cowan a copy of the disclosures in this Form 8-K and has requested that Cowan furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not Cowan agrees with the Company’s statements in this Item 4.01. A copy of the letter dated April 26, 2016 furnished by Cowan in response to that request is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K. And a copy of the letter from Cowan about its resignation addressed to the Company is filed as Exhibit 16.2 to this Form 8-K.

16.1 Letter from Cowan, Gunteski & Co., P.C. dated April 27, 2016
