Change of Auditor
Idox plc, a leading supplier of specialist information
management solutions and services, is pleased to confirm the
appointment of Deloitte LLP ("Deloitte") as the Company's auditor
with effect from 19 June 2018 following the resignation of Grant
Thornton UK LLP ("Grant Thornton") on 14 June 2018. This is further
to the announcement on 29 May 2018, signalling the intention to
appoint Deloitte.
In accordance with section 520(2) of the Companies Act 2006, a
communication will shortly be sent to shareholders of the Company
for information only in relation to the statutory statement
received from Grant Thornton in connection with its resignation as
the Company's auditor. The reason given by Grant Thornton was that
challenges during the conduct of the statutory audit of the
financial statements for the year ended 31 October 2017 strained
the working relationship with the Board.
A copy of the section 519 statement of reasons provided by Grant
Thornton is available to view on the Company's website using the
