PNNT says JF Holdings' audited financials cannot be relied on; auditor BDO flags GAAP and independence issues
PENNANTPARK INVESTMENT CORP
- On May 2, 2025, PNNT filed amended 10-K including audited financials for JF Holdings (unconsolidated portfolio co.) for 2022-2024.
- BDO, JF Holdings' auditor, advised on May 15, 2025 that those financials do not comply with GAAP (goodwill amortization) and should not be relied on.
- BDO was not independent of JF Holdings due to work on income tax provision during those periods under PCAOB standards.
- PNNT states its own audited FY2024 and unaudited Q1-Q3 FY2025 financials remain reliable; exploring amendment or SEC relief.
