Statutory auditor's report to the general meeting of shareholders of ThromboGenics NV on the financial statements for the year ended December 31st, 2010
In accordance with the legal and statutory requirements, we report to you on the performance of the engagement of statutory auditor, which has been entrusted to us. This report contains our opinion on the true and fair view of the financial statements as well as the required additional statements and information.
Unqualified audit opinion on the financial statements
We have audited the financial statements of ThromboGenics NV for the year ended December 31st, 2010, prepared in accordance with the financial reporting framework applicable in Belgium, which show a balance sheet total of 179.781.554,12 EUR and a loss for the year of 26.838.888,17 EUR.
Management is responsible for the preparation and the fair presentation of these financial statements. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the legal requirements and the Auditing Standards applicable in Belgium, as issued by the Institute of Registered Auditors (Institut des Réviseurs d'Entreprises / Instituut van de Bedrijfsrevisoren). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In accordance with the above-mentioned auditing standards, we have carried out procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The selection of these procedures is a matter for our judgment, as is the assessment of the risk that the financial statements contain material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we have considered the company's internal control relating to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements, in order to design audit procedures that were appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control. We have also assessed the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as the overall financial statement presentation. Finally, we have obtained from management and the company's officials the explanations and information necessary for our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
