| Statement of the type of external auditor's report | Conservation |
| Comment mentioned in the external auditor’s report, mentioned in any of the following paragraphs (other matter, conservation, notice, disclaimer of opinion, or adverse opinion) | As stated in note 4, during the prior years the Group received assessments from the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA), claiming additional Zakat and withholding tax liabilities of SR 111.5 million related to the years from 2015 to 2018 and SR 68 million related to the years from 2019 to 2020. The Group had filed appeals against ZATCA’s assessments through the process including with the Appellate Committee for Tax, and Customs Violations and Disputes (ACTVD) which has been also rejected. As of the date of this report, the Group filed pleas for reconsideration against the decisions taken by ACTVD in respect of both assessments, which are still under study. The Group has not provided sufficient provisions for these amounts on the basis of its assessment that its pleas will be upheld on appeal. We have not been provided sufficient support for management’s assessments in respect of the years from 2015 to 2020 and any potential exposure relating to open years not yet assessed by ZATCA. We are, therefore, unable to determine whether any adjustments are necessary to the Group’s current or prior year’s zakat charges and corresponding liability. Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023 was qualified for this matter. |
