Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

(a) On April 2, 2024, the Company received a letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission informing the Company that the Public Accounting Oversight Board has revoked the registration of our auditor, Gries & Associates, LLC (“Gries”). The Board of Directors of Registrant approved the dismissal of Gries and dismissed Gries as the independent certifying accountant for the Registrant.  None of the reports of Gries on the Registrant's financial statements for either of the past two years or subsequent interim period contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that the Registrant’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 contained a going concern qualification in the Registrant's audited financial statements.

 

During the two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period preceding Gries’s dismissal, there were no disagreements with Gries on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Gries concerning the subject matter of each of such disagreements would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements.

 

The Registrant provided a copy of the foregoing disclosures to Gries prior to the date of the filing of this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that Gries furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities & Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements in this described herein.  A copy of such letter is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

(b) On January 19, 2024, the Registrant’s Board of Directors approved the engagement of Victor Mokuolu CPA PLLC (“Victor Mokuolu”), as the Registrant's independent accountant to audit the Registrant’s financial statements and to perform reviews of interim financial statements. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 through the date of this report, neither the Registrant nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with Victor Mokuolu regarding (i) either the application of any accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction of the Registrant, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered by Victor Mokuolu on the Registrant's financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement with Gries or a reportable event with respect to Gries.
