Smart Finance and Economics APP news, Gapack (00468) announced that, based on the recommendation of the company's audit committee, the board of directors resolved to appoint Deloitte as the auditor, effective from October 17, 2024, to fill the temporary vacancy left by the resignation of PwC, with a term until the end of the next annual general meeting of shareholders. This decision is related to a previous announcement. However, as of the previous announcement date, Deloitte had not yet completed its internal new client acceptance process, including but not limited to considering professional confirmations from the former auditor, therefore, Deloitte had not decided on acceptance at that time.
After the previous announcement was published, Deloitte received a letter from a shareholder of the company on October 25, 2024, and received professional confirmations on October 28, 2024, requesting further information from the company regarding the matters contained in the shareholder letter and professional confirmations to complete its internal new client acceptance process. The company needs more time to provide the additional information required by Deloitte to complete the said procedures. Due to the uncertainty of whether Deloitte will ultimately accept the appointment and with the financial year-end approaching, the company will take further action to find another suitable candidate to appoint as the auditor.
