The company has maintained consistency in its accounting policies, adhering to the same standards as its previous annual financial statements. As Arpak International Investments Limited navigates these financial challenges, the board remains committed to regular reviews of its investment portfolio to support the company's long-term objectives in a volatile market environment.
