101、ers related to going concern,and for using the going concern basis of accounting unless it is expected to liquidate the Company or to cease operations.The Performance Audit Committee is responsible for monitoring the financial reporting process and the effectiveness of internal control and risk mana

103、achOur role is to issue a report on the parent company financial statements.Our objective is to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether the parent company financial statements taken as a whole are free from material misstatement.Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance,but is not a guaran
104、tee that an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards 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 expected to influence the economic deci
105、sions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.As specified in Article L.82155 of the French Commercial Code(Code de commerce),our statutory audit does not include assurance on the viability or the quality of management of your Company.As part of an audit conducted in accordance wit
106、h professional standards applicable in France,the Statutory Auditor exercises professional judgment throughout the audit.The Statutory Auditor also:identifies and assesses the risks of material misstatement of the parent company financial statements,whether due to fraud or error;designs and performs
107、 audit procedures responsive to those risks;and obtains audit evidence considered to be sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for its opinion.The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error,as fraud may involve collusion,forg
108、ery,intentional omissions,misrepresentations,or overriding internal control;obtains an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 intern
109、al control;assesses the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management in the parent company financial statements;assesses the appropriateness of managements use of the going concern basis of accounting and,based
110、on the audit evidence obtained,whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.This assessment is based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of its audit report.However,future events
111、 or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.If the Statutory Auditor concludes that a material uncertainty exists,there is a requirement to draw attention in the audit report to the related disclosures in the parent company financial statements or,if such disclosures
112、 are not provided or inadequate,to issue a qualified or adverse audit opinion;assesses the overall presentation of the parent company financial statements and whether these statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.Statutory Auditors repo
