Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On June 3, 2026, Comstock Inc., (the “Company”) was notified that Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC (“Sadler Gibb”) acquired substantially all of the assets of Assure CPA, LLC (“Assure”).

The services previously provided by Assure will now be provided to the Company by Sadler Gibb. The Company anticipates that the audit services previously provided by Assure will now be provided by Sadler Gibb. The Company understands that the engagement team that most recently served the Company at Assure, including the lead audit partner, has joined Sadler Gibb and will continue to service the Company.

As a result of the transaction, Assure has now ceased operations as a public accounting firm and resigned as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of June 3, 2026.

The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and the Audit and Finance Committee of the Board has confirmed Assure’s resignation. On June 5, 2026, the Board, upon recommendation by the Audit and Finance Committee of the Board, appointed Sadler Gibb as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

The audit report of Assure on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and the subsequent interim period through June 3, 2026, there were no (i) “disagreements,” as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, with Assure on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure or (ii) “reportable events,” as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and the subsequent interim period through June 3, 2026, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted Sadler Gibb regarding (i) either 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 financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Sadler Gibb concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any 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.

The Company provided to Assure a copy of the statements made in this Item 4.01. Attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K is a letter from Assure to the Securities and Exchange Commission, dated June 9, 2026, stating that it agrees with these statements.
