Re: Discovery Technologies, Inc.
Commission File # 0-18606
We were previously the principal accountants for Discovery Technologies, Inc.
and subsidiary and, under the date of December 14, 1995, we reported on the
consolidated financial statements of Discovery Technologies, Inc. and
subsidiary as of December 31, 1994 and for the years ended December 31, 1994
and 1993. On June 25, 1996, we resigned our employment as principal
accountants. We have read the statements included under Item 4 of Form 8K/A of
Discovery Technologies, Inc. dated August 1, 1996, which we received on August
2, 1996, and we do not agree with the statements for the following reason:
In Item 4(a), the registrant states that on May 23, 1996 the Company
determined to change independent auditors. We had no written notification
of such action until July 30, 1996 when we received the Registrant's Form
8K. In a letter dated June 25, 1996, we notified the Registrant of our
resignation as independent auditors.
In Item 4(a), the registrant has stated that there were was no
disagreement between themselves and HEIN + ASSOCIATES LLP on any matter of
accounting principle or practice. Prior to our resignation, we were
consulted as to the acceptability of accounting for a merger transaction
as of an effective date prior to the consummation of the actual
transaction. We advised the Company that in our opinion, based upon the
facts presented to us, the use of an effective date prior to the
consummation of the merger would not be proper.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Hein + Associates LLP
