Executive Summary

Century Casinos filed this DEFA14A to supplement its 2026 proxy statement, disclosing the dismissal of auditor Grant Thornton and appointment of Ernst & Young as its independent registered public accounting firm, effective May 22, 2026. The change follows the identification of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that led to a restatement of prior-period financial statements. The board unanimously recommends shareholders vote FOR ratifying EY as auditor at the June 22, 2026 annual meeting.

Actionable Insight

Auditor dismissal after material weaknesses and restatements is a governance red flag, but the switch to a Big Four firm (EY) may be viewed as a corrective step. Monitor the annual meeting vote outcome and any further disclosures on remediation of the material weaknesses.

Key Facts

  • Auditor changed from Grant Thornton to Ernst & Young effective May 22, 2026.
  • Material weaknesses identified in internal controls related to impairment testing inputs and assumptions.
  • Material weaknesses resulted in restatement of FY 2024 annual and FY 2025 interim financial statements.
  • No disagreements or reportable events with Grant Thornton other than the material weakness disclosure.
  • Board unanimously recommends voting FOR ratification of EY as auditor.
  • Previously submitted votes on auditor ratification will be applied to EY without re-voting.
  • Annual meeting scheduled for June 22, 2026.

Financial Impact

Auditor change follows material weaknesses that caused restatements; no specific dollar amounts disclosed for the impact of the weaknesses or restatements.

Risk Factors

  • Remediation of material weaknesses may take longer than expected, delaying clean audit opinions.
  • Shareholder dissent on auditor ratification could signal governance concerns.
  • Restatement history may increase regulatory scrutiny or lender covenant reviews.
