Numans Health Food Holdings Company Limited (the “Company”) (Stock Code: 2530) announced the resignation of its auditor, Crowe (HK) CPA Limited (“Crowe”), effective 3 March 2026. According to the announcement, Crowe and the Company could not reach a consensus on the proposed fee increase for the year ended 31 December 2025, due to factors including the turnover of key finance personnel and extended time needed for obtaining and clarifying necessary financial information.
Following Crowe’s resignation, the Company appointed Forvis Mazars CPA Limited (“Forvis Mazars”) as the new auditor until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting. This appointment was considered suitable based on Forvis Mazars’ past audit experience with the Group, industry knowledge, and agreed audit fee.
The announcement also highlighted a potential delay in publishing the audited 2025 annual results, which under the Listing Rules are required to be released on or before 31 March 2026. The new auditors may not be able to complete their procedures by that deadline, and if the results are not published on time, the Company’s trading could be suspended from 1 April 2026. The Company expects to publish the 2025 annual results by 30 April 2026, subject to the timely completion of all outstanding audit work.
