Glass House Brands Inc. reappointed MGO as its auditor effective November 6, 2026, after [BDO](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/000apgr/bdo-usa-llp) resigned, according to [TradingView](https://www.tradingview.com/news/tradingview:f214aea29ec7a:0-glass-house-brands-inc-glas-a-u-reappoints-mgo-after-bdo-resigns/). BDO said its incomplete review of the deconsolidation accounting was an unresolved issue, and the company disagrees.

## Why BDO Left and MGO Returned

BDO resigned before issuing an auditor's report on [Glass House Brands](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0000akt/glass-house-brands) financial statements during its tenure. BDO said it had not concluded its evaluation of the deconsolidation accounting, leaving a reporting issue for the incoming auditor. Glass House Brands disagrees with BDO's characterization of the matter.

[MGO](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0006u98/mgo-macias-gini-o-connell-llp) is expected to complete its review of the company's third-quarter results by November 16, 2026, subject to acceptance, appointment and completion of review procedures. The reappointment restores auditor continuity, though the filing timetable depends on MGO finishing that review.

## Glass House Brands' Deconsolidation Records

Glass House Brands filed an NYSE uplisting application in June 2026 following federal cannabis rescheduling to Schedule III, according to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data). The filing was accompanied by a deconsolidation transaction that transferred adult-use retail assets to Glass House Retail, LLC, a 90% subsidiary, to meet NYSE requirements. The same records show the company completed a deconsolidation transaction segregating its dual-use cannabis business from its medical cannabis business, with subsidiary GHB Usub, LLC holding non-voting units in the separated entity Glass House Retail, LLC.

## Board Resignation and Preliminary Results

On October 19, 2026, Glass House Brands reported preliminary unaudited third-quarter results, including a record harvest and a 37% cost cut from $175 to $110, and announced the resignation of director John Nichols Jr. from its board of directors, Financial Post reported. The company also highlighted GACP certification as a step toward exporting from California.

In August 2026, Glass House Brands reported a net loss of $6.7 million for the second quarter of 2026, contrasting with net income of $8.7 million in the same period a year earlier, Financial Post reported. The company reported record production of 246,000 pounds of biomass in the quarter, according to Yahoo.

## MGO's November 16 Review Deadline

MGO's third-quarter review is expected by November 16, 2026, subject to acceptance and appointment procedures and completion of review work. Glass House Brands' own [announcement](https://www.glasshousebrands.com) covers the auditor change.
