Change of Auditor

 

Virgin Wines UK plc (AIM: VINO), one of the UK's largest direct-to-consumer online wine retailers, announces that following a competitive and comprehensive tender process, the Group has appointed Azets Audit Services Limited ("Azets") as its auditor for the financial year ending 30 June 2024.

 

Azets is a Top 10 accountancy firm with a strong regional network across the UK. The Group was impressed throughout the process with the Azets team's sector experience, specific audit approach, and references. The Group intends to confirm the appointment in a vote of shareholders at the Group's 2024 Annual General Meeting later this year.

 

The appointment of Azets follows the resignation of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") with effect from 25 April 2024. As required by Section 519 of the Companies Act 2006, PwC has confirmed to the Group that there are no circumstances connected with the resignation which it considers should be brought to the attention of the members or creditors of the Company.

 

The Board wishes to take this opportunity to thank PwC for its services to the Group in recent years.
