CHANGES IN REGISTRANTS' CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
(a) Dismissal of Certifying Accountant
Effective April 2, 2026, ZK International Group Co., Ltd. (the “Company” or the “Registrant”) dismissed its independent auditors, Fortune CPA, Inc. (“Fortune”), which action was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on April 1, 2026.
Fortune was engaged by the Company on June 2, 2024 and rendered a report on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2023, 2024 and 2025. For the year ended September 30, 2023, 2024 and 2025 and through the date of this report, Fortune has neither provided any adverse opinion or qualifications on our financial statements nor had a disagreement with the Company since their engagement on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements that, if not resolved to Fortune’s satisfaction, would have caused Fortune to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with the audit of the Company’s financial statements.
None of the reportable events described under Item 304(a)(1)(v)(A)-(D) of Regulation S-K occurred within period of the engagement of Fortune up to the date of dismissal.
Fortune has provided a letter to us, dated May 9, 2026 and addressed to the SEC, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1 and is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
(b) Engagement of New Certifying Accountant
On May 13, 2026, we engaged Li CPA LLC (“New Auditor”) as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026.
During the two most recent fiscal years and in the subsequent period through the date of this report, we have not consulted with New Auditor with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that would have been rendered on the our consolidated financial statements, or any other matters set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) or (ii) of Regulation S-K.
