SECTION 1 – REGISTRANT’S BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On January 26, 2023 (“Resignation Date”) Adeptus Partners LLC ("Adeptus") notified the Company about its resignation as the Company's independent registered accounting firm, effective immediately. Except as set forth below, during the year ended May 31, 2022, and through the Resignation Date, the report of the Adeptus on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2022, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and such reports were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle. The reports of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2022, contained an explanatory paragraph, which noted that there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Adeptus advised the Company, effective on the Resignation Date that the financial information in the Company’s 10-Q for the three months ended August 31, 2022 and the 10-Q for the period ended November 30, 2022 are materially misstated, and that the 10-Q for the period ended November 30, 2022 was filed without Adeptus’ knowledge and before the auditor’s SAS 100 review was completed, as had been prominently indicated in the filing. No reliance should be placed on Company’s unreviewed 1Q23, 2Q23 and 3Q23 statements which will be reviewed and restated, if needed, by the new accountant.
The Company has provided a copy of the foregoing disclosures to Adeptus and requested that it furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether Adeptus agrees with the above statements. A copy of the Adeptus letter, dated December 18, 2023, is filed as an Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
Effective December 11, 2023, the Company has engaged Grassi & Co., CPAs, P.C., associated with Moore Global Network Limited, as the Company’s certifying accountant.
