Resignation of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On September 30, 2024, in conjunction with its exit from providing audit services to publicly traded companies, Morison Cogen LLP (“Morison Cogen”) resigned from its role as independent registered public accounting firm for Apple iSports Group, Inc. (the “Company”).

Morison Cogen’s reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that Morison Cogen’s Independent Auditor’s Report dated April 22, 2024 expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern due to the Company’s losses from development activities.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and the subsequent interim period through September 30, 2024, (i) there were no disagreements within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, between the Company and Morison Cogen on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, any of which that, if not resolved to Morison Cogen’s satisfaction, would have caused Morison Cogen to make reference to the subject matter of any such disagreement in connection with its reports for such years and interim period, and (ii) there were no reportable events within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided Morison Cogen with a copy of the above disclosures and requested that Morison Cogen furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of Morison Cogen’s letter dated October 1, 2024 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Newly Engaged Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On October 3, 2024, the Company engaged Stephano Slack LLC as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 (after receiving approval of the Company’s Board of Directors).

During the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and the subsequent interim period through September 30, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with Stephano Slack LLC regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a 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 Stephano Slack LLC concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or (iii) any reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
