FAQ

Providing clarity on our processes, dedicated support, and strategic partnership

Is a financial statement audit mandatory for my company?

The obligation to undergo a statutory audit applies to, among others, joint-stock companies and other entities that exceeded at least two of the following three thresholds in the previous financial year: a balance sheet total of EUR 2.5 million, net revenues of EUR 5 million, or an average annual headcount of 50 persons. We verify this obligation for each client individually.

How long does the financial statement audit process take?

The duration depends on the size of the company and the quality of the data prepared. As a standard, the process — from the interim audit through to the issuance of the opinion — takes between three and six weeks of auditor work, spread over time in accordance with the year-end closing schedule.

What is the difference between an audit and a review of financial statements?

An audit provides a high level of assurance and concludes with an opinion confirming that the financial statements present a true and fair view of the entity’s financial position. A review provides a moderate level of assurance and focuses on analytical procedures and discussions with management, without detailed testing of source documentation.

Can the auditor provide advice on accounting matters?

A statutory auditor must maintain independence and therefore cannot maintain the accounting records of the audited entity. However, the auditor may identify irregularities and recommend the correct recognition of transactions in accordance with applicable regulations, acting as a substantive partner in the discussion.

What is a management letter?

It is a letter addressed to the Management Board, issued upon completion of the audit. It contains our observations regarding weaknesses in the internal control system, operational risks and proposed improvements identified during the audit that were not included in the formal audit opinion.
