TOKYO, May 20 (Pulse News Wire) – Fujikura Ltd. (5803.T) resolved during its audit committee meeting held on May 20 to appoint new certified public accountants for auditing purposes.
The decision was also approved at the same day's board meeting, setting the appointment effective at the upcoming 178th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for June 26, 2026. The incoming auditor will be Tohmatsu LLC, while PwC Japan LLC will step down.
Tohmatsu LLC was chosen due to its robust global audit structure, specialized expertise, independence, and quality management systems, providing fresh perspectives compared to continuing with the incumbent firm. PwC Japan LLC has served as Fujikura’s auditor since 1963, though the exact start date could be earlier based on available records.
Both firms expressed no objections to the transition.
