International Genius Company (Stock Code: 33) announced the resignation of McMillan Woods (Hong Kong) CPA Limited as auditor effective 28 October 2025. The resignation follows a delay in finalizing information required to complete the audit of the 2025 Annual Results, which included certain subsidiary financial data, assessments of goodwill impairment, fair value of contingent consideration, tax calculations, and audit confirmations. The company and McMillan Woods could not reach consensus on a timetable and additional fees for completing the outstanding work, leading to the auditor’s resignation. According to the announcement, there is no disagreement between McMillan Woods and the audit committee.

CCTH CPA Limited has been appointed to fill the casual vacancy, holding office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting. The audit committee recommended CCTH based on factors including fee quote, experience, technical competence, independence, market reputation, and audit resources. The board and the audit committee anticipate this change will help the company complete the audit work within a suitable timeframe and maintain effective cost control.
