After Deloitte raised its proposed fee for the 2025 audit to HK$1.69 million, citing the need to hire third-party support in Mongolia where it lacks a local presence, the company’s audit committee compared proposals and selected EY, which quoted HK$1.3 million and has its own Mongolian establishment, suggesting a more cost-efficient and operationally aligned audit arrangement for the group’s expanding activities there.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:1145) stock is a Hold with a HK$0.17 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Courage Investment Group Limited stock, see the HK:1145 Stock Forecast page.
