(a) Resignation of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On June 16, 2022, L&L CPAs, PA (“L&L”) resigned as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm due to L&L’s resource constraints.
L&L’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that such reports expressed substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Furthermore, during the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through June 16, 2022, there have been no disagreements with L&L on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to L&L’s satisfaction, would have caused L&L to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such periods.
For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and through June 16, 2022, there were no “reportable events” as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided L&L with a copy of the disclosure contained herein, prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), and requested that L&L furnish the Company a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether or not it agreed with the statements herein and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. L&L’s letter to the Commission is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On July 25, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed WWC, P.C. (“WWC”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through July 25, 2022, neither the Company nor anyone acting on the Company’s behalf consulted WWC with respect to any of the matters or reportable events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
