PART III - NARRATIVE
The filing of the Help At Home, Inc. (The "Company") annual report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 cannot be filed on
or before September 29, 1999 for the following reasons:
First, the Company's chief financial officer resigned her position
unexpectedly on February 19, 1999. Since her departure the Company has
conducted an active executive search for her replacement which
culminated recently in the hiring of a new chief financial officer
("CFO"). The new CFO is not expected, however, to assume his duties
with the Company until October 18, 1999. Since the departure of the
previous chief financial officer, other company personnel have
undertaken the financial tasks and duties of that position in addition
to their normal, recurring employement responsibilities. As a result,
additional time and effort has been expended in an effort to maintain
accurate and complete internal financial statements and books and
records. The Company's Director of Finance also left in March 21, 1999.
The Company has obtained additional personnel to assist in preparing
the Company's financial statements for the audit, a task formerly
accomplished by the Company's chief financial officer and director of
finance. Accordingly, the loss of the Company's CFO has resulted in
unavoidable delays in preparing for the audit of the Company's
financial statements for inclusion in the Company's Form 10-K report
thereby necessitating an extension for the time to file.
Second, on July 12, 1999 the Audit Committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company dismissed the Company's certified accountants
Pricewaterhousecoopers LLP and retained Richard A. Eisner & Company LLP
as its new independent auditors. The change of accountants did not
involve any disagreements or reportable events for any prior periods.
The Company reported the change of accountants on a Form 8-K report for
July, 1999.
The transition to a new accounting firm has occasioned additional
unscheduled delays due to the additional information needed to be
provided to the new firm in order to re-familiarize it with the
business, operations, and the financial and accounting methods and
procedures of the company. While every effort is being made to speed
the transition process, the change to a new accounting firm also has
made filing on the required filing date an impossiblilty.
