As required by law, we report to you in the context of our statutory auditor's mandate. This report includes our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, as well as the required additional statement. The consolidated financial statements comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31st December 2016, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended 31st December 2016 and the explanatory notes.
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of the company Asit Biotech SA for the year ended 31st December 2016, prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union, which show a consolidated statement of financial position total of 15.555.(000) EUR and a consolidated income statement showing a consolidated loss for the year of 12.339.(000) EUR.
Responsibility of the board of Directors for the preparation of the consolidated financial
The board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union, and for such internal control as the board of Directors determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as adopted in Belgium. Those standards require that we comply with the ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the statutory auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the statutory auditor considers the company's internal control relevant to the preparation of consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view, in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the board of Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We have obtained from the board of Directors and company officials the explanations and information necessary for performing our audit.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements of the company Asit Biotech SA give a true and fair view of the group's equity and financial position as at 31st December 2016, and of its results and its cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 5.1 Going concern in the financial statements which describes the uncertainty with regard to the Company's ability to attract additional funding to further develop its operations in the long run and the ability of the Company's management to reassess its development plan.
The board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and the content of the Director's report on the consolidated financial statements.
In the context of our mandate and in accordance with the Belgian standard which is complementary to the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as applicable in Belgium, our responsibility is to verify, in all material respects, compliance with certain legal and regulatory requirements. On this basis, we provide the following additional statement, which does not modify the scope of our opinion on the consolidated financial statements:
The Director's report on the consolidated financial statements includes the information required by law, is consistent with the consolidated financial statements and is free from material inconsistencies with the information that we became aware of during the performance of our mandate.
