Item 4.01 Changes in Company's Certifying Accountant.
(a) |
Previous independent registered public accounting firm: |
On
May 4, 2022, the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Takung Art Co., Ltd. (the “Company”)
dismissed WWC, P.C. (“WWC”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective May 4,
2022.
For the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2021, WWC’s audit reports on the Company’s financial statements contained an emphasis of a matter for going
concern, but otherwise did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified as to audit scope or accounting
principles.
During
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and any subsequent interim period through the date of dismissal, May 4, 2022, (i) there were no
“disagreements” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the
Company and WWC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which
disagreements, if not resolved to WWC’s satisfaction, would have caused WWC to make reference in connection with WWC’s opinion
to the subject matter of the disagreement; and (ii) except for the matter relating to internal control over financial reporting described
below, there were no “reportable events” as the term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
We
furnished a copy of the disclosures in this report to WWC and have requested that WWC furnish us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating
whether such firm agrees with the above statements or, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. We have received the requested
letter from WWC, and a copy of the letter is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 16.1.
(b) |
New independent registered public accounting firm: |
On
May 4, 2022, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of Assentsure PAC (“Assentsure”) as the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2022, effective May 4, 2022.
During
the two most recent fiscal years and through May 4, 2022, the Company has not consulted with Assentsure regarding (1) any matter
that was the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event described in Items 304(a)(1)(iv) or (v), respectively, or (2) any matter
that was the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event described in Items 304(a)(1)(iv) or (v), respectively, of Regulation S-K.
