Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a whole are free from materialmisstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinbn. Reasonable assurance is a high levelof assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit 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 expectedto influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standabne financial statements.

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standabne financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design andperform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for ouropinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud mayinvolve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to therelated disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions arebased on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report However, future events or conditions may cause the Companyto cease to continue as a going concern.
