Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

(a) Resignation of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

 

On November 15, 2024, GreenGrowth CPAs (“GGCPA”) resigned as the Registrant’s independent principal accountant to audit the Registrant’s financial statements after deciding to no longer audit Canadian public companies. Neither of GGCPA’s audit reports for the past two years contained an adverse opinion, disclaimer of opinion or qualification concerning the Registrant’s financial statements. There have been no disagreements with GGCPA during the Company’s recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period through the date of termination on November 15, 2024.

 

Pursuant to Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, the Registrant provided GGCPA with a copy of this Form 8-K, and requested GGCPA to provide a letter addressed to the Commission whether it agrees with the Registrant’s disclosures. The letter received from GGCPA is included as Exhibit 99.1.

 

(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

 

The Registrant is presently interviewing prospective independent principal accountants to audit the Registrant’s financial statements.
