Item 4.01. Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
On February 20, 2024, the Board of Directors of Petro USA, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), approved the engagement of Green Growth CPAs (“Green Growth”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, effective immediately, and accepted the resignation of Gries & Associates, LLC (“Gries”) as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.
During the year ended June 30, 2022, and the subsequent interim periods through February 20, 2024, there were (i) no disagreements (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the Company and Gries on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to Gries’ satisfaction, would have caused Gries to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements for such years, and (ii) no “reportable events” within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation SK.
The Company provided Gries a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that Gries furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of Gries’ letter dated February 20, 2024, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 hereto.
During the year ended June 30, 2022, and the subsequent interim periods through February 20, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has consulted with Gries regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements or the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, and neither a written report or oral advice was provided to the Company that Gries concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or (iii) any reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
