The Board of Directors of Hypha Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) conducted a search to determine the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending September 30, 2026.

On January 27, 2026, the Board approved: (i) the engagement of Astra Audit and Advisory, LLC (“Astra”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending September 30, 2026; and (ii) the dismissal of Fruci & Associates II, PLLC (“Fruci”), the Company’s current independent registered public accounting firm.

Fruci’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024 and 2025 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified to audit scope or accounting principles but did include explanatory paragraphs and footnotes questioning the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the period of Fruci’s engagement as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, there were no disagreements as defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Fruci would have caused it to make reference in connection with any opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement. Furthermore, during the engagement of Fruci, there were no reportable events, as defined under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has requested that Fruci furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements contained in this Form 8-K. A copy of this letter is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this report.

During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2025 and the subsequent interim periods through December 31, 2025, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with Astra regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Astra concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions; or (iii) any matter that was a reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
