Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Audit Report
On June 14, 2011, Life Partners Holdings, Inc. (“we” or “Life Partners”) received a letter from Eide Bailly, LLP (“Eide Bailly”) addressed to the Chairman of our Audit Committee stating that its reports dated May 29, 2009, with respect to our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of and for the year ended February 28, 2009, may no longer be relied upon, until such time that an analysis has been completed and a determination made with respect to possible material misstatements related to the Company’s revenue recognition policy. The letter cites the disclosures made by Ernst & Young LLP in its letter to us dated June 6, 2011, as filed as Exhibit 7.1 in the Form 8-K we filed on June 9, 2011, regarding a disagreement about our revenue recognition policy and a possible material misstatement in our annual and interim financial statements as a result of the application of the policy.
Eide Bailly contacted the Chairman of our Audit Committee and our Chief Financial Officer before issuing its letter. We provided Eide Bailly with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K and asked that Eide Bailly furnish us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the above statements. Eide Bailly’s letter dated June 14, 2011, addressed to us is attached as Exhibit 7.1. Eide Bailly’s letter dated June 17, 2011, addressed to the SEC is attached as Exhibit 16.1.
