Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On February 15, 2022, the Board of Directors of Sunstock, Inc. (“Sunstock”) approved the engagement of Fruci & Associates II, PLLC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, effective immediately.
On February 15, 2022, the audit practice of Macias Gini & O’Connell LLP (“MGO”) notified Sunstock, Inc. (“Sunstock”) that Sunstock no longer fit in with the future direction of MGO’s practice and, therefore, that Sunstock should seek another audit firm.
The Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm of MGO regarding the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that such audit report did include an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the year ended December 31, 2020 and during the interim period from the end of the most recently completed year through February 15, 2022, the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with MGO on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of MGO, would have caused MGO to make reference to such disagreement in its report.
The Company provided MGO with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and requested that MGO furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if it does not agree, the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of the letter, dated February 15, 2022, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 (which is incorporated by reference herein) to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
