We have audited the accompanying Financial Statements
of Bafna Pharmaceuticals Limited ("the Company"), which
comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2025, the
Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive
Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the
Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes
to the Financial Statements, including a summary of material
accounting policies and other explanatory information
(hereinafter referred to as "the Financial Statements").
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according
to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid Financial
Statements give the information required by the Companies
Act, 2013, as amended (''the Act'') in the manner so required
and give a true and fair view in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in India including the Indian
Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the
Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2015, as amended ("Ind AS"), of the state of affairs of
the Company as at 31st March 2025, its profit (including other
comprehensive income), its changes in equity and its cash
flows for the year ended on that date.
We conducted our audit of the Financial Statements in
accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SAs") specified
under Section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under
those SAs are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities
for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report.
We are independent of the Company in accordance with the
Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India ("ICAI''") together with the ethical requirements that are
relevant to our audit of the Financial Statements under the
provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we have
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with
these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the
audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate
to provide a basis for our opinion on the Financial Statements.
a. the non-receipt of the foreign currency receivables as on
31st March 2025 aggregating to INR 120 Lakhs (as on
31st March 2024 - INR 174 Lakhs), which are outstanding
beyond the stipulated time period permitted under the RBI
Master Direction on Export of Goods and Services vide
FED Master Direction No. 16/2015-16 dated 1st January,
2016 (as amended), issued by the Reserve Bank of
India ("RBI"). The management of the Company is in the
process of obtaining approval towards extension of time
limits for realization or write off of the balances. Pending
such confirmation, no adjustment is envisaged in the
books of accounts as on 31st March 2025.
b. the adjustment of Income Tax Refund pertaining to
previous Assessment Years amounting to INR 45.17
Lakhs. The Income Tax Department has issued the refund
order on various dates for respective assessment years;
however, such refunds have been adjusted against the
outstanding demands through Centralized Processing
Centre ("CPC"). As represented by the management, the
Company has filed a writ petition with Honourable Madras
High Court against the adjustment of refund issued with
the outstanding demand.
c. Note No. 36 to the Financial Statement regarding the
non-compliance with various statutory compliances
under Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing
Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations,
2015 and Securities Contracts (Regulations) Rules,
1957, as amended with respect to the Minimum Public
Shareholding, appointment of Compliance Officer and
submission of certain prescribed information to the
Stock Exchanges during the previous reporting periods.
The Company has received the communication from BSE
Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited
in respect to such non-compliance and appropriate
provision has been accounted in the books of accounts as
on reporting date. However, the management is perusing
with the Stock Exchanges for waiver of such penalties
since the Company has complied with the Minimum
Public Shareholding threshold.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above
matters.
Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of the most significance in our audit of the Financial
Statements of the financial year ended 31st March 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Financial
Statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have
determined the following matters as Key Audit Matters to be communicated in our report:

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the
preparation of the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Company''s Annual
Report, but does not include the Financial Statements, and our
auditor''s report thereon. The other information is expected to
be made available to us after the date of auditor''s report. Thus,
our report does not deal with matters mentioned under other
information in Annual Report.
Our opinion on the Financial Statements does not cover the
other information and we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the Financial Statements,
our responsibility is to read the other information identified
above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider
whether the other information is materially inconsistent with
the Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained during
the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated.
When we read the other information, if we conclude that
there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to
communicate the matter to those charged with governance.
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the
matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the
preparation of these Financial Statements that give a true and
fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total
comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of
the Company in accordance with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India, including the Ind AS specified
under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes
maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance
with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of
the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and
other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate
accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that
are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation
and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls,
that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy
and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the
preparation and presentation of the Financial Statement
that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Financial Statements, Board of Directors is
responsible for assessing the Company''s ability to continue as
a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to
going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting
unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the
Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative
but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the
Company''s financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the Financial Statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to
issue an auditor''s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable
assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee
that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs 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 decisions of users taken
on the basis of these Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
throughout the audit. We also:
a) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of
the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error,
design and perform audit procedures responsive to those
risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our 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, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
b) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to
the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)
(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our
opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal
financial controls with reference to Financial Statements
in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used
and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and
related disclosures made by the management.
d) Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use
of the going concern basis of accounting and, based
on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material
uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that
may cast significant doubt on the Company''s ability
to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that
a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw
attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures
in the Financial Statements or, if such disclosures are
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are
based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of
our auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions
may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going
concern.
e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content
of the Financial Statements, including the disclosures,
and whether the Financial Statements represent the
underlying transactions and events in a manner that
achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the
Financial Statements that, individually or in aggregate,
makes it probable that the economic decisions of
a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Financial
Statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative
materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the
scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of
our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified
misstatements in the Financial Statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance
regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including
any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify
during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a
statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate
with them all relationships and other matters that may
reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where
applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with
governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the Financial Statements of the
financial year ended 31st March 2025 and are therefore the
Key Audit Matters. We describe these matters in our auditor''s
report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure
about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances,
we determine that a matter should not be communicated in
our report because the adverse consequences of doing so
would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest
benefits of such communication.

Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of the most significance in our audit of the Financial Statements of the financial year ended 31st March 2024. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Financial Statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the following matters as Key Audit Matters to be communicated in our report:
|
Key Audit Matters |
Auditor''s Response |
|
Litigations, Claims, Provisions and Contingent Liabilities As disclosed in Note 33 detailing contingent liability and provision for contingencies, the Company is involved in litigations concerning direct tax, indirect tax and other matters that are pending with various statutory authorities. Whether a liability is recognized or disclosed as a contingent liability in the Financial Statements is inherently judgmental and dependent on a number of significant assumptions and assessments. The amounts involved are potentially significant and determining the amount, if any, to be recognized or disclosed in the Financial Statements, is inherently subjective. |
Our audit approach include: ⢠Assessed the appropriates of the Company''s accounting policies, including those relating to provision and contingent liability by comparing with the applicable Indian Accounting Standards; ⢠Assessed the Company process for identification of the pending litigations and completeness for financial reporting and also for monitoring of significant developments in relation to such pending litigations; ⢠Engaged subject matter specialists to gain an understanding of the current status of litigations and monitored changes in the disputes, if any, through discussions with the management and by reading external advice received by the Company, where relevant, to establish that the provisions had been appropriately recognized or disclosed as required; ⢠Assessed the Company''s assumptions and estimates in respect of litigations, including the liabilities or provisions recognized or contingent liabilities disclosed in the Financial Statements. This involved assessing the probability of an unfavorable outcome of a given proceeding and the reliability of estimates of related amounts; ⢠Obtained details of completed tax assessments and demands. ⢠We involved our internal experts to review the management''s underlying assumptions in estimating the tax provision and the possible outcome of the disputes. ⢠Assessed the management''s conclusions through understanding precedents set in similar cases; and considering the appropriateness of the Company''s description of the disclosures related to litigations and whether these adequately presented in the Financial Statements. |

Key Audit Matters |
Auditor''s Response |

Inventories Inventories are also the critical component of Financial Statement. Correctness, completeness and valuation are critical for reflecting true and fair financial results of operations. |
Our audit approach include: ⢠We assessed the Company''s process regarding Maintenance of records, Valuation and accounting of transactions relating to Inventory as per the IND AS - 2. ⢠We have evaluated the design of Internal Controls relating to recording and valuation of Inventory. ⢠We have carried out substantive audit procedures at financial and assertion level to verify the allocation of overheads to Inventory. ⢠We have verified the compliance with the standard norms relating to production as framed and timely updated by the management. |
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company''s Annual Report, but does not include the Financial Statements, and our auditor''s report thereon. The other information is expected to be made available to us after the date of auditor''s report. Thus, our report does not deal with matters mentioned under other information in Annual Report.
Our opinion on the Financial Statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Financial Statements, or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
When we read the other information, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance.
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Ind AS specified under section 133 of the Act.. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Financial Statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Financial Statements, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor''s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs 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 decisions of users taken on the basis of these Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
a. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our 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, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
b. Obtain an understanding of internal financial control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3X0 of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to Financial Statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
c. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.
d. Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the Financial Statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
e. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Financial Statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Financial Statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) Planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Financial Statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of the most significance in our audit of the
Financial Statements of the financial year ended 31st March 2023. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of
the Financial Statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these
matters. We have determined the following matters as Key Audit Matters to be communicated in our report:

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Company''s Annual Report, but does not include the Financial Statements, and our auditor''s report thereon. The
other information is expected to be made available to us after the date of auditor''s report. Thus, our report does not deal with
matters mentioned under other information in Annual Report.
Our opinion on the Financial Statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above
when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Financial
Statements, or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
When we read the other information, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to
communicate the matter to those charged with governance.
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the
preparation of these Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, including
other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS and other
accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records
in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting
frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates
that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that
were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation
and presentation of the Financial Statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Financial Statements, the management is responsible for assessing the Company''s ability to continue as a
going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting
unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but
to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor''s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance
is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs 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 decisions of users taken on the basis of these
Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout
the audit. We also:
a. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error,
design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our 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, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
b. Obtain an understanding of internal financial control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our
opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to Financial Statements in
place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
c. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and
related disclosures made by the management.
d. Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on
the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast
significant doubt on the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty
exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements
or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence
obtained up to the date of our auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to
cease to continue as a going concern.
e. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair
presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Financial Statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it
probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Financial Statements may be influenced.
We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) Planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating
the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Financial Statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the
audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements
regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought
to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the Financial Statements of the financial year ended 31st March 2023 and are therefore the key
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor''s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about
the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report
because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such
communication.
The financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2022 were audited by other auditor, who have issued unmodified report

Compliance with IND AS 36 and IND AS 113: With a view to resolve the Insolvency and Bankruptcy proceedings initiated on the Company, the Promoter had submitted Resolution plan which was approved by NCLT, Chennai bench. The Resolution plan had proposed restructuring and restating of all assets liabilities which would have resulted in write offs as well as write backs in the books of accounts. However, due to appeal by an aggrieved party, NCLAT has stayed the handing over of the Corporate Debtor to the Resolution applicant and has also instructed that the status of the corporate debtor be maintained as a Going concern. In view of the above, the Company did not test the assets for recovery/impairment as per principles of IND AS 36 nor restated them at fair values as per IND AS 113. Similar is the case of non-restatement at fair values in the case of current liabilities. The Company has deferred the above to be carried out in the ensuing financial year (Ref: Foot note no. 5 of Audited Financial results as well as Note No.3 of IND AS notes to Financial Statements) |

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act,2013,to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls.Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the internal financial controls system over financial reporting of the Company.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorization of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting of future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
