Zuma Resources Limited has announced a change in its external auditors after the resignation of its existing audit firm, according to a material information notice submitted to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX).

The company’s Board of Directors accepted the resignation of M/s A.H.W & Co. Chartered Accountants, which had been serving as the company’s external auditors. Following the resignation, the board approved the appointment of M/s Saeed ul Hassan & Co. Chartered Accountants to fill the resulting casual vacancy.

The appointment became effective from July 9, 2026, ensuring the continuity of the company’s statutory audit functions and compliance with regulatory requirements.

The disclosure was made in accordance with Section 96 of the Securities Act, 2016, and Clause 5.6.1(a) of the Pakistan Stock Exchange Regulations, which require listed companies to promptly inform the market about material corporate developments.

The notification was signed by Muhammad Saeed, Company Secretary, on behalf of Zuma Resources Limited. The company stated that the appointment of the new audit firm was approved by the Board following the resignation of the previous auditors.

Changes in external auditors are a routine aspect of corporate governance and are important for maintaining transparency, regulatory compliance, and the integrity of financial reporting. The appointment of a new audit firm enables the company to continue fulfilling its statutory obligations while ensuring an independent review of its financial statements.

With the transition now complete, Zuma Resources Limited is expected to continue its financial reporting processes under the oversight of its newly appointed external auditors.
