According to the Securities and Futures Commission, Redrover inflated its equity capital by misclassifying and incorrectly accounting for gains and losses on financial products during 2018-2019. On the 20th, the Commission imposed a six-month restriction on securities issuance, fines, a two-year auditor designation, and recommended the dismissal of two former executives responsible. For Jeongil Accounting Firm, which audited in 2018, the Commission ordered fines, an additional 50% contribution to the joint compensation fund, and a three-year restriction on auditing Redrover. For Jeongmyeong Accounting Firm, the 2019 auditor, fines, an additional 30% contribution to the joint compensation fund, and a two-year restriction on auditing Redrover were imposed. The final decision on fines against auditors and company officials will be made by the Financial Services Commission in the future.
