PA Resources Publishes 2014 Annual Report and a Modified Auditors’ Opinion

Regulatory News:

PA Resources AB (STO:PAR)(OSE:PAR) has today published its 2014 annual report with a modified auditors’ opinion. While the auditors recommend that the Board of Directors and the Managing Director be discharged from liability for the financial year they do not express an opinion on the financial statements. As a result the auditors can also not provide any recommendation to the annual meeting regarding the adoption of the income statement and balance sheet of the parent company and the group.

The reason for the modified auditors’ opinion are the significant uncertainties relating to the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The auditors point to the company’s need to secure long-term financing to provide the group with the necessary capital, the board’s strategic review of the continued operation of PA Resources and the Tunisian government’s still pending approval of an extension of the Zarat license as the key uncertainties. The auditors state that they have been unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to confirm or dismiss these uncertainties and thus provide a basis for an audit opinion.

It is the view of the board of directors that it has acted in accordance with IFRS when approving the financial accounts on a going concern basis to which the auditors are in agreement. The auditors’ opinion should also consider if there is sufficient and appropriate audit evidence, as defined by the International Standards of Auditing (ISA) that supports the going concern assumption and thus has resulted in the modified opinion.
