Item
4.01. Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
(a)
Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On
December 30, 2024, Deep Green Waste & Recycling, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. (“MTS
CPA”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The dismissal was approved by the Company’s Board
of Directors and became effective on January 2, 2025.
Subsequent
to the dismissal and prior to the filing of this amended Current Report on Form 8-K, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”)
issued an order revoking the registration of MTS CPA. A copy of the PCAOB’s order can be found on its website under order number
105-2025-022-Studer.
MTS
CPA’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022,
did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting
principles, except for an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During
the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, and the subsequent interim period through December 30,
2024, (i) there were no disagreements with MTS CPA 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 MTS CPA, would have caused MTS CPA to make
reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on the financial statements, and (ii) there were no
reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The
Company requested that MTS CPA furnish a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees
with the statements made herein. A copy of such letter, dated July 29, 2025, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this amended Current Report
on Form 8-K.
(b)
Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Effective
January 2, 2025, the Company engaged HHL LLP (“HHL”) as its new independent registered public accounting firm. The engagement
was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.
During
the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, and the subsequent interim period through
December 30, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with HHL regarding (i) the application of accounting
principles to any specific transaction, completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s
financial statements, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation
S-K or a reportable event as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.K.

Cautionary
Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This
annual report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,”
“estimate,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “will,” “plan,” “future,”
“continue, “and other expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events and trends and that do not relate to historical
matters identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based largely on our expectations or forecasts of future
events, can be affected by inaccurate assumptions, and are subject to various business risks and known and unknown uncertainties, a number
of which are beyond our control. Therefore, actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this
document, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. A wide variety of
factors could cause or contribute to such differences and could adversely impact revenues, profitability, cash flows and capital needs.
There can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this document will, in fact, transpire or prove to be accurate.
These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks in the
section entitled “Risk Factors” that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance
or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied
by any forward-looking statements.
Important
factors that may cause the actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements, projections or other expectations include, but
are not limited to, the following:
●
risk that we will not be able to remediate identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures;
●
risk that we fail to meet the requirements of the agreements under which we acquired our business interests, including any cash payments to the business operations, which could result in the loss of our right to continue to operate or develop the specific businesses described in the agreements;
●
risk that we will be unable to secure additional financing in the near future in order to commence and sustain our planned development and growth plans;
●
risk that we cannot attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel, particularly employees, consultants and contractors for our operations;
●
risks and uncertainties relating to the various industries and operations we are currently engaged in;
●
results of initial feasibility, pre-feasibility and feasibility studies, and the possibility that future growth, development or expansion will not be consistent with our expectations;
●
risks related to the inherent uncertainty of business operations including profit, cost of goods, production costs and cost estimates and the p
