Change in Certifying Accountants (Form 8-K)

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

On February 27, 2026, urban-gro, Inc. (the "Company") dismissed Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC ("Sadler") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to dismiss Sadler was approved by the audit committee of the Company's board of directors on February 27, 2026.

Sadler had been retained by the Company on May 29, 2024. Sadler's reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, 2023 and 2024 did not contain any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

From the date Sadler was engaged by the Company through the date of dismissal, there have been no disagreements with the former accountants on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Sadler, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements.

From the date Sadler was engaged by the Company through the date of dismissal, there have been no reportable events, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The Company has requested Sadler to furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statement made above by the Company. A copy of such letter, dated March 3, 2026, is filed herewith as Exhibit 16.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
