Management Announces a Change of Audit Firms Has Been Completed

CHATSWORTH, Calif., May 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Freedom Holdings, Inc. aka Freedom Acquisition Corp (OTC: FHLD) (“FHLD” “the Company”) is pleased to announce that the Company has engaged Olayinka Oyebola & CO Chartered Accountants to complete the requirement of having the financial statements audited by a member of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. (PCAOB).

On May 3, 2024 the Securities Exchange Commission (Commission) announced an administrative action against BF Borger CPA PC and that Borgers is denied the privilege of appearing or practicing before the Commission as an accountant.

The action taken by the Commission required the Company to retain a different audit firm and as a result of the order will be reauditing the fiscal year of 2023. The Company filed the 8K as required in May 20, 2024 to reflect this change of audit firms.

As announced earlier on 02/26/2024, FINRA processed a Form 211 relating to our initiation of priced quotations for FHLD, which means that the submitting broker-dealer has demonstrated to FINRA compliance with FINRA Rule 6432 and therefore has met the requirements under that rule to initiate a quotation for FHLD within four days of 02/26/2024. FINRA’s processing of a Form 211 in no way constitutes FINRA’s approval of the security, the issuer, or the issuer’s business and relates solely to the submitting broker-dealer’s obligation to comply with FINRA Rule 6432 and SEE Rule 15c2-11 when quoting a security.

The Company will be working with OTC Markets making application to gain a QB status on the OTC Markets board as soon as possible.

Operations have begun to execute the company’s business plan to add shareholder value through organic and acquisitional growth. The Company has been in negotiations with several companies in the cannabis industry, who have shown interest in a potential merger with Freedom.
