Shell plc (NYSE: SHEL) announced it will file amendments to its 2023 and 2024 Form 20-Fs due to Ernst & Young LLP's (EY) non-compliance with SEC auditor independence rules. The issue arose when EY disclosed that its lead audit partner had exceeded the allowed period under SEC audit partner rotation rules for these years.
Despite this compliance issue, Shell emphasized that no changes are required to the previously issued financial statements for 2023 and 2024. EY has assigned a new lead audit partner and will issue new US audit opinions, which remain unqualified. The company will file the amended Form 20-Fs with the SEC on July 2, 2025.
Additionally, EY informed that time limitations under the UK Financial Reporting Council's Revised Ethical Standard regarding partner rotation had also been exceeded. However, no amended filings are required in the UK, and this matter will be handled between EY and the UK Financial Reporting Council.
