Statement of the type of external auditor's report Qualified conclusion
Modification, Qualification or Emphasis of a Matter as Stated within the External Auditor Opinion Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed interim statement of financial position of ETIHAD ATHEEB TELECOMMUNICATION COMPANY (the "Company") as at 30 September 2021, and the related condensed interim statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three and six months period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes .Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed interim financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard (34) "Interim Financial Reporting" that is endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed interim financial statements based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" that is endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A review of condensed interim financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing that are endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Basis for Qualified Conclusion

We have not received a related party confirmation as at 30 September 2021, accordingly we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidences about the differences that existed on 31 March 2021 between the carrying amount of this related party and the confirmation received as at that date of SAR 8,5 million, and we were unable to verify the carrying amount of the related party as at 30 September 2021 by performing alternative audit procedures. Accordingly, we were unable to determine whether any adjustments to this amount were necessary.

Qualified Conclusion

Based on our review, with the exception of the matter described in the preceding paragraph, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard (34) "Interim Financial Reporting" that is endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Note (1) to the accompanying condensed interim financial statements, which indicates that the accumulated losses of the Company amounted to SR 138,58 million as of 30 September 2021, exceeding half of the Company's capital, and the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by SR 203,83 million as at 30 September 2021 and it made a loss of SR 9,7 million for the period then ended. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty, which may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. As stated in Note (1), the management has made an assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, and as result, the accompanying condensed interim financial statements has been prepared on a going concern basis. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
