[8-K] Wetouch Technology Inc. Reports Material Event

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Wetouch Technology (Nasdaq: WETH) filed a Form 8-K reporting two material developments.

• Nasdaq compliance: Nasdaq accepted the company’s plan to cure late filings and granted an exception until October 13, 2025 to submit its FY 2024 10-K and Q1–Q2 2025 10-Qs.
• Auditor change: The board dismissed Enrome LLP as independent auditor effective June 27, 2025; no adverse opinions or disagreements were noted and a confirming letter will be filed.

The extension averts immediate delisting, yet WETH remains out of compliance and now lacks an auditor, increasing execution risk ahead of the new deadline.

Positive

• Nasdaq accepted the company’s remediation plan and granted a compliance extension until October 13, 2025, preventing immediate delisting.

Negative

• WETH remains non-compliant with SEC filing requirements and faces delisting if it misses the October 2025 deadline.
• Dismissal of Enrome LLP leaves the company without an independent auditor, potentially delaying required 10-K and 10-Q filings.

Insights

Risk Analyst

TL;DR: Extension buys time, but auditor exit raises delisting risk

Nasdaq’s waiver removes short-term suspension pressure, yet the simultaneous loss of Enrome compounds uncertainty. Without an auditor, completing backlogged reports in under four months appears challenging, heightening the probability of another compliance breach or restatement. Investors should monitor the prompt appointment of a PCAOB-registered firm and the pace of audit fieldwork; delays could trigger trading halts or impair capital access.

Corporate Governance Specialist

TL;DR: Governance neutral; process followed, outcome unclear

The board’s Audit Committee properly approved the dismissal and disclosed the absence of disagreements, suggesting procedural compliance. However, replacing an auditor after just 13 months, before any reports were issued, can signal internal control or record-keeping challenges. Timely selection of a new firm and transparent communication will determine whether confidence is restored or further eroded.

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On June 26, 2025, Wetouch Technology Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that Nasdaq had reviewed and accepted the Company’s plan of compliance relating to the Company’s noncompliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires timely filing of periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As previously disclosed, the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) due to a delay in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2025.

Based on the plan of compliance submitted by the Company, Nasdaq granted the Company an exception through October 13, 2025, to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). The Company must file its outstanding reports, including the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and the Form 10-Qs for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2025, on or before that date to evidence compliance.

The Company is working diligently to complete the required audits and reviews and remains committed to regaining and maintaining compliance with all applicable Nasdaq continued listing requirements.

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On June 27, 2025, the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the dismissal of Enrome LLP (“Enrome”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

Enrome was engaged as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm on May 10, 2024, and has not rendered any report on the Company’s financial statements for any financial period of the Company, and never expressed, orally or in writing, any adverse opinion with respect to the Company’s financial statements.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 since Enrome’s engagement on May 10, 2024 and in the subsequent interim period through its dismissal on June 27, 2025, (i) there were no disagreements within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-X and the instructions relating thereto with Enrome on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to Enrome’s satisfaction, would have caused Enrome to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the consolidated financial statements, if any, and (ii) there were no reportable events within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has provided Enrome with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K on June 25, 2025, and has requested that Enrome furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company in this report and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. The Company intends to file such letter by amendment to this Form 8-K promptly after receipt.
