Item 4.01Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

The Board of Directors of Digipath, Inc. (the "Company") conducted a competitive process to determine the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the Company's fiscal year ending September 30, 2023.

Following review of proposals from the independent registered public accounting firms that participated in the process, on September 27, 2023, the Board approved: (i) the engagement of Fruci & Associates II, PLLC ("Fruci") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the Company's fiscal year ending September 30, 2023; and (ii) the dismissal of M&K CPAS, PLLC ("M&K"), the Company's current independent registered public accounting firm.

M&K's reports on the Company's financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 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 Company's fiscal years ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and through M&K's dismissal on September 27, 2023, there were (i) 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 M&K, would have caused it to make reference in connection with any opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement. (ii) no reportable events, as defined under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has requested that M&K 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, 2022 and September 30, 2021 and the subsequent interim periods through September 27, 2023,neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with Fruci regarding: (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 was provided to the Company nor oral advice was provided that Fruci 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.
