Insights

Auditor resignation disclosed with no stated disputes or reportable events.

Society Pass disclosed that AOGB CPA Limited resigned as its independent registered public accounting firm while engaged to audit the year ended December 31, 2025. AOGB did not issue an audit opinion for that year before resigning.

The Company notes there were no disagreements on accounting principles, disclosures, or audit scope, and no reportable events during 2025 and the interim period to June 2, 2026. This language follows standard regulatory requirements for changes in auditors, and the attached Exhibit 16.1 provides AOGB’s confirmation letter.

The filing centers on governance and reporting continuity rather than financial performance. Subsequent disclosures naming a new auditor and describing progress on the 2025 audit would further clarify how the Company’s reporting timetable evolves.

independent registered public accounting firm financial
"resign as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company, effectively immediately"
An independent registered public accounting firm is an outside accounting company officially registered with the government regulator to examine and report on a public company's financial records and controls. Investors treat its reports like an impartial inspector’s certificate — they add credibility to financial statements, help spot errors or misleading claims, and reduce the risk that shareholders are relying on unchecked or biased numbers.
reportable events regulatory
"there were no “reportable events” as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K"
Reportable events are significant incidents or changes a company is legally required to disclose to regulators and the public, such as major safety problems, legal actions, financial irregularities, or management changes. They matter to investors because these events can alter a company’s risk profile or future performance, much like a dashboard warning light signals a problem that could affect a car’s safety or reliability. Timely disclosure helps investors make informed decisions and maintain market fairness.
Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K regulatory
"no “reportable events” as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K"
Audit Committee financial
"AOGB CPA Limited (“AOGB”) notified the Audit Committee of Society Pass Incorporated"
A company's audit committee is a small group of board members who act like independent inspectors for the firm's finances, overseeing how financial reports are prepared, monitoring internal controls, and managing the relationship with external auditors. Investors care because a strong audit committee reduces the risk of accounting errors, fraud, or misleading statements, making financial statements more trustworthy and helping protect shareholder value.
Emerging growth company regulatory
"Emerging growth company"
An emerging growth company is a recently public or smaller public firm that qualifies for temporary, lighter regulatory and disclosure rules to reduce the cost and effort of being public. For investors, it means the company may provide less historical financial detail and face fewer reporting requirements than larger firms, so it can grow more quickly but also carries higher uncertainty—like buying a promising early-stage product with fewer user reviews.

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

On June 2, 2026, AOGB CPA Limited (“AOGB”) notified the Audit Committee of Society Pass Incorporated, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) of its decision to resign as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company, effectively immediately. Although their audit was not designed to identify or detect violations of law or fraud, AOGB’s resignation was not a result of any violation of law or fraud of the Company identified during its audit procedures to date.

 

AOGB was previously engaged by the Company to audit the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. AOGB did not issue an audit opinion on the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

During the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2026 to June 2, 2026, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and AOGB with respect to any matter related to accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of AOGB, would have caused AOGB to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report, and (ii) there were no “reportable events” as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

The Company has provided AOGB with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the SEC and requested that AOGB furnish to the Company a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not AOGB agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter, dated June 8, 2026, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this current report on Form 8-K.
