Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying
Accountant.
Change in Independent Registered Public
Accounting Firm
Following discussions among the Audit Committee
of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of Next Technology Holding Inc. (the “Company”), on January
21, 2026, the Audit Committee and management of the Company elected to change the Company’s independent registered public accounting
firm by dismissing JWF Assurance PAC (“JWF”) and engaging CHI-LLTC (“CHI”), with the change becoming effective
on that date. The decision to change the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm from JWF to CHI was based on the
Company’s desire to engage an accounting firm that it believes will be a better fit for the Company’s operations and easier
to collaborate with going forward. The change was not the result of any disagreement between the Company and JWF on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures.
JWF’s audit reports on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 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. JWF has served as
the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm since 2023.
During the Company's fiscal years ended December
31, 2024 and 2023, and the subsequent interim period preceding the change in auditor from JWF to CHI, there were no (a) “disagreements”
(as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the Company and JWF 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 JWF, would have caused JWF to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in their reports on the financial statements
for such years, or (b) “reportable events” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Company provided JWF with a copy of this Form
8-K prior to its filing with the SEC and requested that JWF furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether JWF
agrees with the statements made by the Company in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K and, if not, stating the respects in which
it does not agree. A copy of JWF’s letter, dated January 21, 2026, is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Engagement of New Independent Registered
Public Accounting Firm
On January 21, 2026, the Audit Committee engaged
CHI to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and subsequent
periods.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended
December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the subsequent interim period through January 21, 2026, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted
CHI regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit
opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and no written report or oral advice was provided
by CHI to the Company that CHI concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting,
auditing, or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv)
of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
