Culturecom Holdings has announced the immediate resignation of its auditor, Gary Cheng CPA Limited, after the firm decided to step down before starting work on the group’s audit for the financial year ended 31 March 2026. The change leaves the company without an auditor just weeks before its late-June reporting deadline, as the board continues to search for a replacement to handle the 2026 audit. According to the company, the auditor’s decision was driven by resource and timing constraints stemming from a delayed confirmation of reappointment and revised fee negotiations. Both the board and the audit committee stated there was no disagreement with the auditor and no other matters requiring shareholder attention, but the tight timetable may heighten execution risk around Culturecom’s upcoming financial reporting cycle. The chronology provided shows the auditor issued a fee quote in early March, sought confirmation in April, received only an initial intent to engage in early May and then proposed a higher fee to reflect a compressed schedule. With the company still considering the new fee by mid-May, Gary Cheng CPA opted to resign, underscoring how protracted engagement talks can disrupt listed issuers’ audit arrangements close to reporting deadlines. **More about Culturecom Holdings Limited** Culturecom Holdings Limited is a Bermuda-incorporated company listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
