Item 4.  Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

On May 17, 2002, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors approved the dismissal of our independent public accountants, Arthur Andersen LLP.  Arthur Andersen LLP’s reports on our financial statements for each of the last two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.  During our two most recent fiscal years and during the subsequent interim period through the date of dismissal, May 17, 2002, there have not been any disagreements between us and Arthur Andersen LLP on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, or any reportable events as defined under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

A copy of a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission from Arthur Andersen LLP stating that it agrees with the above statements will be filed by amendment to this Form 8-K.

 

Also on May 17, 2002, based upon approval of the Audit Committee, we engaged the firm of KPMG LLP to be our independent public accountants. We did not consult with KPMG LLP at any time since December 31, 1999 with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, or concerning any disagreement or reportable event with Arthur Andersen LLP.

InFocus® Names KPMG LLP Independent Public Accountant

 

WILSONVILLE, Ore., May 22, 2002 — InFocus® Corporation (Nasdaq: INFS)(OSE: IFC) today announced that its Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has appointed KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the company’s independent public accountant effective immediately.  Prior to the selection of KPMG, Arthur Andersen LLP (“Andersen”) served as the company’s independent public accountant.

 

Effective May 9, 2002, 123 audit and tax professionals of the Portland, Oregon office of Andersen joined KPMG.  Selecting KPMG will allow the company to minimize the disruption associated with changing its auditors.  The decision was made following a thorough review by management and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

 

InFocus said the decision to change auditors was not the result of any disagreement between the company and Andersen on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.
