ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
The Board of Directors of Hydron Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") and
The DeCarlo Group ("DeCarlo"), the Company's independent accountants and
auditors of record for the financial statements of the Company for the year
ended December 31, 1999, agreed that DeCarlo would cease to be the auditors of
the Company, effectively April 19, 2000.
The Company is actively soliciting new proposals from independent accountants to
audit their financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999 and
anticipates the prompt engagement of an independent accountant and completion of
an audit of the financial statements.
DeCarlo did not render a report on the Company's financial statements during the
term of its engagement. During the period preceding cessation of services, there
were no disagreements between the Company and DeCarlo on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing
scope or procedures of the type described in paragraph (a)(l)(iv) of Item 304 of
Regulation 8-K promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. Moreover, no reportable events have occurred of the type described in
paragraphs (a)(l)(v) or (b) of Item 304 of Regulation 8-K.
The Company has provided DeCarlo with a copy of this disclosure and has
requested DeCarlo to file a letter with the Securities and Exchange Commission
stating whether it agrees with the Company's statements. (A copy of this letter
is filled as Exhibit 18.1 to this Form 8-K).
