Change in Certifying Accountants Form 8 K

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

(a) Resignation of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and appointment of new Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

On August 13, 2024, Quality Industrial Corp. (the "Company") was notified by Pipara & Co LLP ("Pipara") of its decision to resign as the Company's independent registered accounting firm, effective as of such date. On August 19, 2024, we engaged Bush and Associates CPA (the "New Accountant") as our independent registered public accounting firm. The engagement of the New Accountant was approved by our Board of Directors.

The reports of Pipara on the Company's financial statements for the two most recently completed fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 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 Pipara's audit report on the Company's financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 included an explanatory paragraph contained an uncertainty about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

During the Company's two most recently completed fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the subsequent interim period through the date of resignation, there were no "disagreements" (as such term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with Pipara 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 Pipara would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements for such periods.

During the Company's two most recently completed fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the subsequent interim period through the date of resignation, there were no "reportable events" (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K), other than as disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, where the Company's management, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer determined that the Company's internal controls over financial reporting concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by the report.

The Company provided Pipara with a copy of this report on Form 8-K in accordance with Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and requested that Pipara furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission 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 from Pipara is filed as Exhibit 16.1 hereto.

New Certifying Accountant

The Company is currently in the process of selecting a new independent registered public accounting firm.
