Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone Financial Statements as awhole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's reportthat includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that anaudit conducted in accordance 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 the economic decisions of users taken based on theseStandalone Financial Statements
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professionalskepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone Financial Statements,whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, andobtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for_ouropinion. The riskof not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is highei^^yf^l'./q^fe'resulting from
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or theoverride of internal control.

If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in ourauditor's report to the related disclosures in the Standalone Financial Statements or, if suchdisclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidenceobtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may causethe Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
