Summary
Unusual Machines made two governance changes on August 12, 2026. The company switched auditors from Salberg & Company to Ernst & Young for fiscal 2026, a routine rotation with no accounting disputes or control issues—Salberg issued clean opinions for 2024 and 2025 with no disagreements or reportable events under Item 304. The more material change is the bylaw amendment to stockholder voting mechanics.
For non-director matters, the company now counts only votes cast for and against, rather than requiring a majority of all shares present. Abstentions previously functioned as votes against proposals; under the new standard they are ignored. This lowers the bar for stockholder proposals to pass and may shift voting dynamics on contested governance matters.

On August 12, 2026, the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Unusual Machines, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the dismissal of Salberg & Company, P.A. (“Salberg”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.
The company dismissed Salberg & Company as its independent auditor and immediately appointed Ernst & Young LLP for fiscal year 2026. The filing explicitly states there were no disagreements on accounting principles or practices, no reportable events, and Salberg's prior audit opinions were unqualified. This is a routine auditor rotation with clean representations under Item 304.

The reports of Salberg on the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the subsequent interim period through August 12, 2026, there were (i) no disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a) (1) (iv) of Regulation S-K) between the Company and Salberg on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Salberg would have caused Salberg to make reference thereto in its reports on the financial statements of the Company for such years, and (ii) no “reportable events” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a) (1) (v) of Regulation S-K).
The company received clean audit opinions for 2024 and 2025 with no adverse opinions, disclaimers, qualifications, disagreements, or reportable events. This confirms the auditor change is routine and not driven by accounting disputes or control issues.

Item 5.03 — Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws filed; see Key Changes for terms.

Article III, Section 3.05 of Stockholder Quorum and Voting Requirements of the Bylaws was deleted and replaced in its entirety to amend the voting requirements for stockholder approval of actions, other than the election of directors, with such actions to be approved by the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeding the number of votes cast in opposition to the action, unless a greater percentage is required by the Nevada Revised Statutes or a lesser percentage is required as provided in Section 3.05(c) of the Bylaws.
The Board amended the bylaws to change how stockholder votes are counted for non-director matters. Under the new standard, an action passes when votes in favor exceed votes against, rather than requiring a majority of all shares present at the meeting. This means abstentions no longer count as votes against a proposal, making it easier for stockholder proposals to pass.
