With a total of 34 UK LSE and AIM listed clients, and a further 15 listed on European markets, we are ranked 10th in the league table of Auditors by Total Stock Market Clients (as of late-2021).
Our “sweet spot” are audit clients with a market cap of up to £50 million, but we also have experience with clients with a market cap of up to £600 million.
Our Capital Markets team, led by Nick and Sanjay, have worked together on listed audits and corporate transactions for over 20 years and can provide a long-term relationship.
This unique selling proposition is demonstrated by having successfully obtained new audit assignments from the larger firms. For example, Alien Metals Ltd (from RSM), the Local Shopping REIT PLC (from KPMG), Windar Photonics PLC (from BDO), Premier African Minerals (from KPMG), Modern Water Plc (from Grant Thornton), Zenith Energy Ltd (from PKF) and hVIVO Plc (from BDO).

Our audit approach focuses on enhancing shareholder value by providing meaningful recommendations on ways to improve business practices.
We adopt a risk-based approach to our audit work, ensuring that we focus on the key areas of judgement and risk. Our audit approach will be set once we have undertaken a review of the systems and controls in place to ascertain where it would be more efficient to undertake compliance testing rather than substantive testing. Crucially, we avoid any unnecessary work on immaterial low risk items, thereby ensuring a streamlined audit process.
We enjoy a high retention rate amongst our staff which means that clients often work with the same people over a number of years.
We would also plan ahead to ensure any foreseen staff absences (Covid or otherwise), training leave or holidays is managed around your audit timetable.
Our listed audit clients receive priority, and as a result, we have never missed an interim or sign off deadline. Where a tight deadline may arise, we have a pool of 30 audit professionals that can be made available to meet deadlines with little disruption to you.
We have developed an efficient audit process over many years, having worked closely with finance directors, audit committees and non-executive directors.
Read more on how our software supports remote audits.
KARBON & CCH PRO-AUDIT
We currently use Karbon along with CCH Pro-Audit, a cloud-based job management and tracking software, to communicate and track audit requests and deliverables. This provides transparency of the status on each request and deliverables and anticipate bottlenecks or upcoming issues in the audit.
CIRCIT
Initiated at the audit planning stage, Circit managed progress and control of all bank and legal confirmation requests with improved turnaround.
INFLO
We use Inflo, an AI based audit tool, that allows us to analyse 100% of transactions so we can better understand the risk of material misstatement, design a more effective audit process and speed up routine tasks.
