Yes, it's a regulatory requirement. The thing is, they did the very minimum they were required by law. It would be very wise of them get proper financial adviser/auditor and also prepare the extended, full accounts (to be more transparent and credible).
They also had some issues with filing the papers on time. I hope that any of the newly appointed directors has some solid knowledge and experience in such things.
Agree, quite poor.
Statements dated Oct 2013 (almost a year ago) and not approved by their board until last month?
No income statement, or statement of cash flows.
In fact, that stinks.
