| Grant Thornton (HK) | 29-Dec-17 | Supplemental Announcement: The Board proposed to remove GT as the auditor of the Company because GT's proposed audit fee of HK$780,000 (a 4% increase) was not commensurate with the Group's down-scaled and streamlined operations (following the disposal of a joint venture in the luggage and accessories business in 2025). The Company sought proposals from other accounting firms and shortlisted Crowe, which proposed a lower fee (representing an approximate 17% reduction compared to GT's proposal) by utilizing a risk-aligned allocation of effort, deploying staff stationed in the PRC for field testing and staff in Hong Kong for group-level consolidation and governance. | ||
| Grant Thornton (HK) | 28-Sept-26 | The Company could not reach a consensus with Grant Thornton Hong Kong Limited (GT) in respect of the audit fee for the year ending 31 December 2026. The Audit Committee considered that the estimated fee level may not be commensurate with the operation scale of the Group. In addition, given that GT has served as the auditor of the Company for over 9 years, the Audit Committee considered that the auditor should be rotated to enhance the independence and objectivity of the audit process. |
