WKBT - actually the company was set to upgrade auditors from GKM to a large firm with many on-the-ground auditors in China and GKM was given prior notice as to their dismissal. From what I understand, the new firm wasn't going to be able to get the 10Q work done on time and thus WKBT got a smaller firm that could put their entire efforts into the 10Q and get it filed on time (by May 16th). It's also my understanding that the replacement auditor won't be around for long and the switch to the original large firm will take place. I at least give kudos to WKBT having a replacement in place at the time of GKM's dismissal. I think we've seen enough companies in the sector dismiss their auditors for whatever reason and not having someone else lined up and ready to go unlike the situation here ........
"The reason for the resignation is obviously the fact that GKM found some problems with their books. Things are f'd up."
I guess this is what not effective internal controls leads to:
