Item 4. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On September 12, 2003, Interlink Electronics, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as its principal accountant. KPMG served as the Company’s principal accountant for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. KPMG’s report on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002 (the “Report”) did not contain any adverse opinion, disclaimer of opinion or qualification as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During this period and the subsequent interim period through September 12, 2003, there were no disagreements with KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to KPMG’s satisfaction, would have caused KPMG to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with the Report. During the term of KPMG’s engagement, there were no “reportable events” (as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Company has requested KPMG to furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made above by the Company. A copy of such letter, dated September 16, 2003, is filed as an Exhibit to this Form 8-K.
The Company has engaged BDO Seidman, LLP as its new principal accountants. During the two most recent fiscal years and through September 12, 2003, the Company has not consulted with BDO Seidman, LLP regarding the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements.
The Board of Directors of the Company, on the recommendation of its Audit Committee, approved the change in accountants described herein.
