Item 4.01                      Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
 
This Amendment No. 1 of Current Report on Form 8-K amends Item 4.01 of the Current Report on Form 8-K dated and filed on July 11, 2012.
 
Effective July 1, 2012 (the “Closing Date”), Blackman Kallick, LLP (“Blackman Kallick”), the independent registered public accounting firm of Wells-Gardner Electronics Corporation. (the “Company”), consummated a merger with Plante & Moran, PLLC (“Plante & Moran”), with Plante & Moran being the surviving legal entity. As of the Closing Date, Plante & Moran succeeded Blackman Kallick as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm as a matter of law, and  by operation of law, the Company continued to engage the surviving legal entity, Plante & Moran as its independent registered public accounting firm.
 
Blackman Kallick’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were clean opinions and did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
 
During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the subsequent interim period through July 1, 2012, there were (i) no disagreements (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the Company and Blackman Kallick on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Blackman Kallick would have caused Blackman Kallick to make reference thereto in its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such years, and (ii) no “reportable events” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
 
During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the subsequent interim period through July 1, 2012, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted Plante & Moran on any matter.
 
The Company provided Blackman Kallick with a copy of this Form 8-K and requested that Blackman Kallick provide the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not Blackman Kallick agrees with the above disclosures.  A copy of Blackman Kallick’s letter, dated July 13, 2012, is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
