1RevenueThe firm did not identify and evaluate departures from GAAP related to the issuer's inaccurate disclosures that it recognized revenue in conformity with FASB ASC Topic 605 Revenue Recognition which was superseded by FASB ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers prior to the year under audit. (AS 2810.30 and .31) Unrelated to our review the issuer reevaluated its disclosures of revenue recognition and determined that the disclosures were inaccurate. The issuer did not file an amended Form 10-K or a Form 8-K indicating that its previously issued financial statements should not be relied on. Instead the issuer corrected the disclosures in a subsequent filing. The firm reissued its report on the financial statements.
