On April 18, 2023, the board of directors of FDCTech, Inc. (the “Company”) terminated its relationship with its independent registered public accounting firm, BF Borgers CPA PC, Lakewood, Colorado (“BF Borgers”), effective as of April 18, 2023. BF Borgers’ audit reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting principles.

 

On April 18, 2023, the Company, based on the decision of its board of directors, approved the engagement of Bolko & Company, Boca Raton, Florida (“Bolko”) to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, commencing April 18, 2023. On March 4, 2024, the board of directors of FDCTech, Inc. (the “Company”) terminated its relationship with its independent registered public accounting firm, Bolko & Company, Boca Raton, Florida (“Bolko”), effective as of March 4, 2024.

 

Bolko was only retained by the Company for less than a year, and no reports were filed with the SEC. During the period of time that Bolko was the Company’s auditor through March 4, 2024, there were no disagreements with Bolko on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Bolko, would have caused Bolko to refer to the matter in its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such periods.

 

On March 4, 2024, the Company, based on the decision of its board of directors, approved the engagement of Fortune CPA Inc., Orange, California (“Fortune”) to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, commencing March 4, 2024.

 

Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has advised that, in lieu of obtaining a letter from BF Borgers stating whether or not it agrees with the statements herein, the Company may indicate that BF Borgers is not currently permitted to appear or practice before the SEC for reasons described in the SEC’s Order Instituting Public Administrative and Cease-and-Desist Proceedings Pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act of 1933, Sections 4C and 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 102(e) of the Commission’s Rules of Practice, Making Findings, and Imposing Remedial Sanctions and a Cease-and-Desist Order, dated May 3, 2024 (“Order”).

 

Due to the Order by the SEC against BF Borgers, Fortune has advised the Company to reaudit the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, and to reaudit the balance sheet of the Company at December 31, 2021. The registrant requires extra time to complete the reaudit conducted by BF Borgers without unreasonable time and expense.

 

Fortune is also conducting Company’s audit for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, which includes the acquisition of Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries on November 30, 2023, Alchemy Markets Ltd. (AML, formerly NSFX Ltd), a European margin trading broker/dealer company licensed by the Malta Financial Authority and Alchemy Prime Ltd. (APL), an investment firm regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (‘FCA’). The acquisition of AML and APL will materially increase the net assets and revenues of the registrant. The registrant is consolidating both AML’s and APL’s financial statements with its financial statements and requires extra time to complete the consolidation without unreasonable time and expense.
