Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On July 20, 2024, Clean Vision Corporation (the “Company”) received a written notification from its independent registered public accounting firm, Fruci & Associates II, PLLC (“Fruci”), advising the Company that, through no fault of the Company and solely due to Fruci’s failure to follow sufficient audit procedures, the financial statements (the “2023 Financials”) and audit opinion (the “2023 Fruci Opinion”) issued by Fruci in connection with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”) can no longer be relied upon and that Fruci was withdrawing the 2023 Fruci Opinion.
During conversations between Fruci and certain members of the Company’s management and board of directors where these matters were discussed, Fruci took full responsibility and advised the Company that the failure to sufficiently comply with audit procedures concerning the 2023 Financials and 2023 Fruci Opinion resulted solely from Fruci’s failure to complete sufficient audit procedures and not from any act or omission of the Company.
Fruci also advised the Company that it (i) is in the process of completing the omitted audit procedures and (ii) fully agrees with the disclosure contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K as set forth in its letter to the Company dated July 25, 2024, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 herewith.
Upon Fruci’s successful completion of the omitted audit procedures, the Company intends to file an amendment to its 2023 Annual Report to include a new audit opinion from Fruci.
