Abstract: Abstract Family enterprises hold a prominent position in the economic development process yet are confronted with a multitude of governance hurdles. By selecting the Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share listed family enterprises during the period from 2014 to 2022 as research specimens, this study delves into the influence of non-family shareholder governance on the postponement of audit reports within family enterprises from the vantage point of ownership structure. The research findings demonstrate that non-family shareholder governance is capable of remarkably diminishing the delay of audit reports. This implies that such governance can augment the timeliness of audit reports in family enterprises, optimize the financial information setting, and reinforce the capacity to foresee and react to risks, which is highly significant for the growth of family enterprises.
