“Let’s get real”? Okay, let’s do exactly that. Bringing in a new firm isn’t the same as flipping a switch. It’s not just about time on the calendar, it’s about the complexity of what they’re auditing. If the company is refiling 2023 financials, that means the new auditor had to go back and essentially re-audit past work before even touching 2024. That’s a massive lift, especially if there were any discrepancies or changes in financial reporting standards that needed to be addressed.
Auditors work at their own pace for a reason, they’re signing their name to a legally binding document. That’s not something they rush because Ihub is impatient. And when you add in the fact that HMBL is dealing with innovative structures like digital infrastructure that doesn’t fit neatly into old-school accounting frameworks.
