Item 4.01    Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant


(a)

Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



On October 7, 2005, Stonefield Josephson, Inc. were terminated as the independent accountants for Capco Energy, Inc. (the “Registrant”).  

  


Stonefield Josephson, Inc.’s report on the Registrant’s financial statements for the year ended   December 31, 2004, contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion nor was it qualified as to audit scope or accounting principles. Stonefield Josephson Inc.’s report on the Registrant’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003, included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about the Registrant’s ability to continue as a going concern.  


The Registrant’s Audit Committee made the decision to terminate its prior accountants to utilize the services of a firm local to its primary business activities.


In connection with the prior audits for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and during the interim period from January 1, 2005, to October 7, 2005, there have been no disagreements with Stonefield Josephson, Inc. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.


The Registrant has requested that Stonefield Josephson, Inc. review this disclosure and that firm has been given an opportunity to furnish the Registrant with a letter addressed to the Commission containing any new information, clarification of the Registrant’s expression of its views, or the respect in which it does not agree with the statements made by the Registrant herein.  Such letter is filed as an exhibit to this Report.


(b)

Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


On October 10, 2005, the Registrant engaged Malone & Bailey, PC as its independent accountants.


The Registrant did not consult with Malone & Bailey, PC with regard to any matter concerning the application of accounting principles to any specific transactions, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered with respect to the Registrant’s financial statements.
