Item 4.01 - Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
On December 31, 2025, J&S Associate PLT (PCAOB Registration No. 6743) (the “Former Auditor”) resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of UMeWorld Inc. (the “Company”). The resignation was tendered in accordance with the Former Auditor’s responsibilities under the rules and standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and was due to required audit engagement partner rotation in accordance with PCAOB independence requirements and Rule 2-01(c)(6) of Regulation S-X. The resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
The reports of the Former Auditor on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2025 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2025, and through December 31, 2025, there were no disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) between the Company and the Former Auditor on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
During the same period, there were no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Company has provided the Former Auditor with a copy of the disclosures contained in this Item 4.01 and has requested that the Former Auditor furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made herein.
