Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On August 21, 2025, the Board of Directors of Fuse Group Holding Inc. (the “Company”) approved the dismissal of KCCW Accountancy Corp. (“KCCW”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.
KCCW’s audit reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024 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 the audit reports on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024 contained an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024, and in the subsequent interim period through August 20, 2025, there were (i) no disagreements between the Company and KCCW 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 KCCW, would have caused KCCW to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in their reports on the financial statements for such years, and (ii) no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except as noted in the following paragraph:
During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024, and through the interim period ended August 20, 2025, there were the following “reportable events” (as such term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K). As disclosed in Part I, Item 4 of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company’s management determined that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of the end of such period due to the existence of material weaknesses related to the following:
1. We do not have an Audit Committee. While we are not legally obligated to have an audit committee, it is the management’s view that such a committee, including a financial expert member, is of the utmost importance for entity-level control over the Company’s financial statements. Currently, the Board of Directors acts in the capacity of an audit committee.
2. We did not implement appropriate information technology controls. As of August 20, 2025, the Company was retaining copies of all financial data and material agreements; however there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of the Company’s data or off-site storage of the data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors.
3. We currently lack sufficient accounting personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting requirements. We have one employee assigned to a position that involves processing financial information, resulting in a lack of segregation of duties so that all journal entries and account reconciliations are reviewed by someone other than the preparer, heightening the risk of error or fraud.
These material weaknesses have not been remediated as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The Company provided KCCW with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Report”) prior to the time the Report was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company requested that KCCW furnish a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of KCCW’s letter dated August 26, 2025, is attached as Exhibit 16.1 hereto.
(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On August 21, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the engagement of Simon & Edward, LLP (“Simon & Edward”), as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of August 21, 2025. The Board of Directors also approved Simon & Edward to act as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through August 20, 2025, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted Simon & Edward regarding (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 consolidated financial statements of the Company; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event as described above; and there was neither a written report nor was oral advice provided to the Company by Simon & Edward that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue.
