Item4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
On February 9, 2026, the Board of Directors of Norris Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed BDO USA, P.C. (“BDO”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of February 9, 2026.
BDO has not issued an audit report on the Company’s financial statements for any fiscal period.
Prior to BDO’s engagement, the Company’s financial statements were audited by HORNE LLP (“HORNE”). On November 1, 2025, the partners and professional staff of HORNE joined BDO.
The report of HORNE on the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
Disagreementswith Former Auditor
During the period from the engagement of BDO on November 1, 2025, through February 9, 2026, there was a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) between the Company and BDO related to the accounting for the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in the Company’s financial statements.
Specifically, the disagreement relates to whether the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock should be presented as permanent equity or temporary (mezzanine) equity.
ReportableEvents
Other than the matter described above, and the material weaknesses noted below there were no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) during the periods described herein. The identified material weaknesses are: (i) the Company does not have accounting personnel with extensive experience in maintaining books and records and preparing financial statements in accordance with US GAAP which could lead to untimely identification and resolution of accounting matters inherent in the Company’s financial transactions in accordance with US GAAP; (ii) the Company does not have policies and procedures in place to ensure the timely review, disclosure and accurate financial reporting for significant agreements and transactions; (iii) the Company does not have an independent audit committee in place, which would provide oversight of the Company’s officers, operations and financial reporting function; and (iv) the Company does not have sufficient accounting personnel to have a separation of their respective accounting duties.
NewAuditor
As of the date of this filing, the Company has not yet engaged a new independent registered public accounting firm.
