Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

     On November 12, 2013, management of Alternet Systems, Inc. (the “Company”), after consultation with the Board of Directors, determined that the Company’s consolidated financial statements for year ended December 31, 2012 contained errors relating to the omission of material accruals at December 31, 2012 and should be restated accordingly. The Company will be filing Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (the “Amendment”) to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed on April 15, 2013 (the “Original Filing”) to restate its consolidated financial statements and related financial information. This Amendment reflects the restatement of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and amendment of related disclosures as at December 31, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2012.

     The corrections of errors resulted in a $126,621 increase to sales, $266,534 increase to cost of sales, and $68,734 decrease to non-controlling interest for the year ended December 31, 2012; and a $92,831 increase to accounts payable and accrued charges and $21,292 decrease to non-controlling interest as at December 31, 2012.

The corrections of errors did not impact the consolidated balance sheet as at December 31, 2011 or the consolidated statement of operations and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011. The consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 were impacted by a $92,831 increase in accounts payable and accrued charges, a $21,292 decrease to non-controlling interest, and a $71,539 decrease to accumulated deficit. There was no impact to the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the periods ended three and six months, March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively

The Company’s management and Board of Directors have discussed this filing with its independent registered public accounting firm, StarkSchenkein, LLP. As a result of the pending restatement, the previously issued financial statements for December 31, 2012 should no longer be relied upon.
