Management Commentary and Risks
The Audit Committee approved the change in accounting firms. The Company confirmed there were no disagreements with the former auditor (M&K) regarding accounting principles, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scope/procedures during the two most recent fiscal years and the interim period through September 5, 2025. Similarly, no reportable events occurred. The Company has not consulted the new auditor (Withum) on any accounting or auditing matters prior to this engagement.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the specific reasons for the change in auditors beyond the standard disclosure, given the prior "substantial doubt" regarding going concern status.
- Review the attached letter from M&K CPAS, PLLC (Exhibit 16.1) to confirm their agreement with the Company's statements regarding the dismissal.
- Monitor upcoming financial filings for the 2025 fiscal year to assess if the going concern qualification persists under the new auditor.
- Confirm the Company's current liquidity position and capital raising activities to address the previously noted going concern risks.
