Statement of the type of external auditor’s report | Qualified conclusion |
Modification, Qualification or Emphasis of a Matter as Stated within the External Auditor Opinion | Basis for Qualified Conclusion• As stated in note 6, the consolidated financial statements include investment in an associate (50% ownership) with a carrying value of SR 317 million and share of results of SR 13.1million as at and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 (SR 319.12 million and SR 1.52 million as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020). The associate had trade receivables amounting to SR 48 million, out of which the Group’s share is SR 24 million; that are overdue for more than one year, against which management has not recognized any allowance for expected credit losses. Management was unable to provide us with adequate information to ensure the recoverability of those trade receivables balances. Had we been provided adequate information, matters might have come to our attention indicating that adjustments might be necessary to the interim condensed consolidated financial information for and as of the period ended June 30, 2021.• As stated in note 17, the Group received assessments from the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (the Authority), claiming additional Zakat liabilities of SR 199.8 million (December 31, 2020: SR 201.9 million) in respect of the assessment for prior years against which the Group has filed appeals. It is management’s assertion that they have grounds to contest against items included in the assessments raised by the Authority, that the outcome of the appeals is uncertain at this stage and, therefore, it is not possible to determine the potential Zakat provision. No provision has been made in these consolidated financial statements for the items under appeal and for any potential exposure relating to open years not yet assessed by the Authority. We have not been provided details or basis of certain appeals, including details of zakat computation in respect of certain open years for the Company and of the certain subsidiaries. Had we been able to complete our review of zakat assessments, matters might have come to our attention indicating that adjustments might be necessary to the interim condensed consolidated financial information for and as of the period ended June 30, 2021.Material Uncertainty Related to Going ConcernWe draw attention to Note 2.5 in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements which states that the Group incurred a net loss of SR 54.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 and, as of that date, the Group’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by SR 113.32 million. These events or conditions, along with other matters, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.Other MatterThe interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 were reviewed by another auditor who expressed an unmodified review conclusion on those financial statements on August 25, 2020.Qualified ConclusionExcept for the adjustments to the interim condensed consolidated financial information that we might have become aware of had it not been for the situation described above, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial information does not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at June 30, 2021, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the six-month period then ended in accordance with IAS 34, as endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. |
