Wyoming Statutes Title 26. Insurance Code § 26-3-303. General requirements related to filing and extensions for filing of annual audited financial reports; audit committee appointment

(a) All insurers shall have an annual audit by an independent certified public accountant and shall file an audited financial report with the commissioner on or before June 1 for the immediately preceding calendar year. The commissioner may require an insurer to file an audited financial report earlier than June 1 with ninety (90) days advance notice to the insurer.

(b) Extensions of the June 1 filing date may be granted by the commissioner for thirty (30) day periods upon a showing by the insurer and its independent certified public accountant of the reasons for requesting the extension and a determination by the commissioner there is good cause for an extension. The request for extension shall be submitted in writing not less than ten (10) days prior to the due date in sufficient detail to permit the commissioner to make an informed decision with respect to the requested extension.

(c) If an extension is granted in accordance with subsection (b) of this section, a similar extension of thirty (30) days is granted to the filing of the management's report of internal control over financial reporting.

(d) Every insurer required to file an annual audited financial report pursuant to this section shall designate a group of individuals as constituting its audit committee. The audit committee of an entity that controls an insurer may be deemed to be the insurer's audit committee for purposes of this article at the election of the controlling person.
