Sino-Forest has hired PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC) to "examine and review" the allegations and is working to restore its image. Sino-Forest has stated that it needs three months to prove the veracity of its financial reports. In a recent piece for the Financial Times, Merryn Somerset Webb, the editor-in-chief of Money Matters said that "given that confidence is hard won and easily lost, [three months] is too long." Immediately following a June 14 th phone call that was meant to reassure analysts, Sino-Forest's shares slid an additional 14%.
