ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On January 6, 2022, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Fourth Wave Energy, Inc., (the “Company”) dismissed MaloneBailey, LLP (“MB”) as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of such date, and engaged M&K CPAS, PLLC (“M&K”) as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2021.
The audit reports of MB on the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 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 they each contained an explanatory paragraph disclosing uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and during the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2021 through January 6, 2022, (i) there were no disagreements with MB on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures that, if not resolved to MB’s satisfaction, would have caused MB to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports and (ii) there were no “reportable events” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided MB with a copy of this Report prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company requested that MB furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Registrant in this Report respecting MB and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. The letter from MB is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and during the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2021 through January 6, 2022, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted M&K regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that M&K concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” or a “reportable event”, each as defined in Regulation S-K Item 304(a)(1)(iv) and 304(a)(1)(v), respectively.
