Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financialreporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financialstatements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud orerror, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assuranceis a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted inaccordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if,individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence theeconomic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment andmaintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
(i) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the interimconsolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design andperform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidencethat is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The riskof not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher thanfor one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
(ii) Obtain an understanding of internal controls relevant to the audit in order todesign audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not forthe purpose of expressing an opinion on whether the Company has in placean adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and theoperating effectiveness of such controls
(iii) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and thereasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made bymanagement
(iv) Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concernbasis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a
material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may castsignificant doubt on the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern.If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to drawattention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the interimfinancial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify ouropinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to thedate of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may causethe Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
(v) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financialstatements, including the disclosures, and whether the interim consolidatedfinancial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in amanner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statementsthat, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of areasonably knowledgeable user of the standalone financial statements may beinfluenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planningthe scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) toevaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the standalone financialstatements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among othermatters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings,including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during ouraudit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we havecomplied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and tocommunicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably bethought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, the auditordetermines those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financialstatements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describesthese matters in the auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes publicdisclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, the auditordetermines that a matter should not be communicated in the auditor’s report becausethe adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh thepublic interest benefits of such communication.
