In its Form 8-K Current Report dated April 16, 2012, DGSE disclosed that its board of directors had discovered accounting irregularities beginning July 1, 2007 and continuing to April 2012 that render the Company's financial statements inaccurate. DGSE stated that the accounting irregularities were the result of improper accounting for inventory and other balance sheet accounts by its former Chief Financial Officer. These revelations prompted AMEX to halt the trade of DGSE shares.

On June 18, 2012, DGSE received written notice that the Securities and Exchange Commission was investigating the Company's accounting irregularities to determine whether federal securities laws have been violated.
