Change in Certifying Accountants (Form 8-K)

Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

On June 8, 2026, the Audit Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors of Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Inc. (the "Company") approved the engagement of Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman, P.A. ("RRBB") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending February 28, 2027.

Also, effective June 8, 2026, the Committee approved the dismissal of CohnReznick LLP ("CohnReznick") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

CohnReznick's report on the Company's financial statements as of and for the years ended February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that the reports included an explanatory paragraph relating to substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

During the Company's fiscal years ended February 28, 2026 and 2025, and the subsequent interim period through June 8, 2026, there were (i) no "disagreements" (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) between the Company and CohnReznick 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 CohnReznick, would have caused CohnReznick to make a reference to the subject matter thereof in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements for the years ended February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025 and (ii) no "reportable events" (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and related instructions).

The Company provided CohnReznick a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K (the "Form 8-K") and requested that CohnReznick provide the Company a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above disclosures. A copy of such letter is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

During the years ended February 28, 2026 and 2025, and through the subsequent interim period from March 1, 2026 through June 8, 2026, neither the Company nor any party acting on its behalf, consulted with RRBB regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered with respect to the Company's consolidated financial statements, and no written reports or oral advice was provided to the Company that RRBB 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 that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) or a "reportable event" (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and related instructions).
