Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

On August 14, 2019, Farber Hass Hurley LLP (“Farber”) resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of Graphene & Solar Technologies Limited (the “Company”). Farber has served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm since February 4, 2019, and, as such, did not issue any audit report for any period, including for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018.

 

During the period from February 4, 2019 through August 14, 2019, there were no disagreements with Farber on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedure, which, if not resolved to Farber’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such period. During the period of engagement, there were no reportable events as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except that Farber stated in its resignation letter that the volume of inconsistent and incomplete information and the lack of support for transactions involving the Company, its subsidiary and affiliate in the quarter ended June 30, 2019 has made it impossible for Farber to conclude its review on the financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The Company provided Farber with a copy of the disclosures it is making in response to Item 304(a) and has requested that Farber furnish it with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of such letter is filed herewith as Exhibit 16.1.

 

The Company has not, as of this date, engaged the services of a successor independent registered public accounting firm. However, the Company intends to timely file a Current Report on Form 8-K reporting such engagement upon doing so.
