ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
On June 10, 2019, the board of directors (the "Board") and majority shareholders of US Nuclear Corp. (the “Company”) dismissedMaloneBailey LLP (“MB”) as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company effective immediately.
There have been no disagreements with MB on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of MB would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with their report, and there were no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except for MB having advised the Company of the existence of material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
On June 10, 2019, upon approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, and majority shareholder, the Company engaged Fruci & Associates II, PLLC (“Fruci”), as the Company's independent accountant to audit the Company’s financial statements and to perform reviews of interim financial statements. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, through June 10, 2019, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with Fruci regarding (i) either the application of any accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction of the Company, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered by Fruci on the Company's financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement with MB or a reportable event with respect to MB; (iii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and none of the following was provided to the Company: (a) a written report, or (b) oral advice that Fruci concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (iv) Any matter that was the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.
