LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / February 24, 2015 / Seven Arts Entertainment, Inc. (now known as WirelessConnect, Inc.) (OTC Pink: SAPX) (SAPX) ("Seven Arts" or the "Company"), a diversified company with motion picture production assets and wireless communications, is pleased to provide a shareholder update.
Recently Seven Arts became aware that its current auditing firm is going thru an audit review by the Public Company Oversight Board ("PCAOB" www.pcaob.org) which has prevented the auditing firm from issuing opinion letters to its clients including Seven Arts. This action has delayed the completion of Seven Arts audited financial statements and the filing of its 10-K for the fiscal year ended 6/30/2014, and the two quarterly 10-Qs for the periods ending on 9/30/2014 and 12/31/2014. Seven Arts is in the process of selecting another auditing firm to complete its 2014 fiscal year end and quarterly reviews.
As an interim course of action, Seven Arts has determined it's best to file Form 15 with the SEC and become a non-reporting issuer until the 10-K and 10-Qs are completed and filed. The Company will also apply to the OTC Markets Disclosure Services where it will file its 10-Ks and 10-Qs until it becomes a reporting issuer. The Company will continue to trade on the OTC Markets under symbol SAPX.
