WASHINGTON, May 26, 2017

The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board today announced that the Open Meeting on Thursday, June 1, will begin at 10 a.m., rather than at 2:30 p.m., as previously announced. At the meeting, the Board will consider adopting a standard that would provide additional information in the auditor's report.

The Board also will consider proposing amendments to standards that would strengthen and enhance requirements for auditing accounting estimates, including fair value measurements, and an auditor's use of the work of specialists.

The meeting is open to the public and will take place in the Board's meeting room at 1666 K Street NW, Washington, DC. The meeting will be streamed live via a link on the PCAOB website and a recording will be available shortly after the meeting concludes.
