Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
Based on information provided by Friedman LLP (“Friedman”), the independent registered public accounting firm of Feutune Light Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”), effective September 1, 2022, Friedman combined with Marcum LLP (“Marcum”) and continued to operate as an independent registered public accounting firm. Friedman continued to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm through October 7, 2022. On October 7, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and the Audit Committee of the Board authorized the replacement of Friedman with Marcum to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for the year ending December 31, 2022, pending the execution of a formal engagement letter with Marcum. The services previously provided by Friedman will now be provided by Marcum once Marcum is engaged. On October 11, 2022, an engagement letter were executed by Marcum and the Company, effectively immediately.
The Company was incorporated on January 19, 2022 (the “inception”). Therefore, since its inception, the Company has not filed any annual reports on Form 10-K and Friedman has not conducted any audit on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for any fiscal year, except that: (i) it has issued a report (the “IPO Offering Report”) for the audited financial statements for the period from inception through February 2, 2022 in connection with the initial public offering of the Company (collectively, the “Interim Financial Statements”); (ii) it has issued a report (the “IPO Closing Report”) on the Company’s balance sheet as of June 21, 2022 and the related notes (collectively, the “IPO Closing Financial Statements”) in connection with the closing of the initial public offering of the Company. Other than the foregoing, Friedman has not issued any audit report since incorporation, nor has it provided any adverse opinion, disclaimer of opinion, or report qualified or modified with uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle, except that it has expressed uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in its IPO Report.
Additionally, Friedman’s IPO Offering Report and IPO Closing Report 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 report on the Interim Financial Statements of the Company contained an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Since the Company’s inception and during such interim period through October 7, 2022, there were no disagreements with Friedman 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 Friedman, would have caused Friedman to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such periods. Also, during this time, there were no “reportable events,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided Friedman with a copy of the above disclosures and requested that Friedman furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made above. A copy of Friedman’s letter dated October 7, 2022 is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
(b) Appointment of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
On October 11, 2022, the Company engaged Marcum as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, effective immediately. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and through October 11, 2022, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with Marcum regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, either completed or proposed or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Marcum concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or a “reportable event,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
