The Australian Securities and Investments Commission reported that recruitment firm Hudson Global Resources (Aust) Pty Ltd was convicted and fined AUD 270,000 by the Downing Centre Local Court on July 21, 2026. The large proprietary company failed to lodge audited financial reports for the 2022, 2023 and 2024 financial years. Failure to lodge full-year financial reports breaches sections 319(1) and 1311(1) of the Corporations Act. The outcome forms part of ASIC’s 2026 enforcement focus on non-lodgement, and the regulator urged companies to confirm their reporting status and deadlines and schedule audit and board approval processes accordingly.
