UMeWorld Inc. 8-K

What Happened

• UMeWorld Inc. (UMEW) filed a Form 8-K on Feb 6, 2026 announcing that its Board approved the engagement of WSJ & Partners (AF 002020) as the company’s independent registered public accounting firm to audit consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026.
• The filing notes that J&S Associate PLT previously resigned as UMeWorld’s independent registered public accounting firm effective December 31, 2025, as disclosed in a Form 8-K filed January 5, 2026.

Key Details

• New auditor: WSJ & Partners (No. AF 002020) engaged for FY ending Sept 30, 2026; approved by the Board.
• Prior auditor resignation: J&S Associate PLT resigned effective December 31, 2025 (previously disclosed Jan 5, 2026).
• Consultation status: During the company’s two most recent fiscal years and the interim period before WSJ’s engagement, UMeWorld did not consult WSJ about accounting or auditing matters, and WSJ reported no disagreements or reportable events.

Why It Matters

• Auditor changes are material because the independent auditor provides the audit opinion investors rely on to assess financial statements. A board-approved auditor engagement is a routine governance step to ensure audited financials for FY2026.
• The filing discloses no consultations, disagreements, or reportable events with the new auditor for the recent periods, which suggests the auditor transition was orderly and that no unresolved audit disputes were identified in the disclosure. Investors should watch future filings (e.g., audited FY2026 financials) for WSJ’s audit opinion and any additional auditor-related disclosures.
