EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A, or the Amendment, amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Research Solutions, Inc., or the Company, with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 10, 2024, or the Original Form 8-K. The Amendment is filed to clarify that (i) the dismissal of Weinberg and Company, P.A., or Weinberg, as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm is effective immediately following the filing of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024, the financial statements with respect to which Weinberg will review, and (ii) Wipfli LLP, or Wipfli, will commence review of the Company's financial statements starting with the Company's fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2024. Except as expressly noted above and the letter attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1, this Amendment does not modify or update in any way disclosures made in the Original Form 8-K. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 8-K.

Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

On October 8, 2024, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, or the Audit Committee, of the Company dismissed Weinberg as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, effective upon the filing of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024, the financial statements with respect to which Weinberg will review.

Weinberg's reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, and the subsequent interim period through October 8, 2024: (i) there were no "disagreements", as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, between the Company and Weinberg on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to Weinberg's satisfaction, would have caused Weinberg to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in connection with its reports for such years and interim period, and (ii) there were no "reportable events", as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided Weinberg with a copy of the above disclosures prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, and requested that Weinberg furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether Weinberg agrees with the statements made by the Company herein. The letter from Weinberg with respect to the Original Form 8-K, addressed to the SEC, was furnished to the Company on October 9, 2024 and was attached to the Original Form 8-K as Exhibit 16.1. The letter from Weinberg with respect to the Amendment, addressed to the SEC, was furnished to the Company on October 17, 2024 and is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1

(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

On October 8, 2024, the Audit Committee approved and ratified the appointment of Wipfli as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025 and to commence review of the Company's unaudited quarterly financial statements starting with the Company's fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2024.

During the two most recent fiscal years ended June 30, 2023, and 2024, and the subsequent interim period through October 8, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone on the Company's behalf consulted with Wipfli with respect to (i)(a) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, (b) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and (c) neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Wipfli 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 that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K, or a "reportable event", as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company intends to amend this Amendment following the filing of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2024 to (i) disclose the effective date of the dismissal of Weinberg, and (ii) update the interim period disclosures related to paragraphs (a)(1)(iv), (a)(1)(v) and (a)(2) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
