Client stories
These notes refer to real service types we offer — statutory audits, readiness reviews, and inventory observation — including where timelines slipped because records were incomplete.
Statutory Financial Audit
Kaede walked our manufacturing ledger through a full statutory review before our lender renewal. They flagged two inventory cut-off issues we had missed for years — the schedule of findings was clear enough that our bookkeeper could correct them without another visit.
Haruto Mori
Finance Director, Seto Precision Parts
Statutory Financial Audit
The fieldwork took longer than we hoped because our subsidiary records were incomplete, and they said so early rather than papering over it. Once we produced the missing bank reconciliations, the final opinion arrived on the date they revised with us.
Elena Vos
Controller, Hikari Marine Logistics
Compliance Readiness Review
We needed a compliance readiness review before our first external audit. Their sampling of expense claims and related-party disclosures saved us from a scramble in December.
Yui Nakamura
Managing Partner, Nakamura Family Holding
Inventory Observation
I asked for a narrow inventory observation at our Shimonoseki warehouse. The count instructions for our floor supervisors were practical, and the observation memo was short enough for our board pack.
Kenji Watanabe
Operations Lead, Nishi Fisheries Co-op
A manufacturing client needed a statutory opinion before a facility renewal. We observed the year-end inventory at two floors, circularised major customers, and issued the report within the revised calendar after two cut-off adjustments were posted.
The management letter focused on inventory cut-off and approval limits on expense claims — items the finance director could assign to named staff.
Nakamura Family Holding had never sat an external audit. Over three weeks we sampled expense claims, mapped related-party balances, and left a remediation list. They returned the following year for a full statutory engagement with cleaner files.
