Note 1 - Basis of Preparation
The annual financial statements of CLS Holdings plc are prepared in accordance
with IFRS as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial
statements included in this half-yearly financial report has been prepared in
accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 `Interim Financial
Reporting', as adopted by the European Union.
The same accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation are
followed in the condensed financial statements as were applied in the Group's
latest annual audited financial statements, except for the IAS1 "Presentation
of Financial Statements" (revised 2007). The Group has adopted IFRS 8
"Operating Segments" but the Standard has no significant impact on these
financial statements.
The information for the year ended 31 December 2008 does not constitute
statutory accounts as defined in section 240 of the Companies Act 1985. A copy
of the statutory accounts for that year has been delivered to the Registrar of
Companies. The auditors' report on those accounts was not qualified, did not
include a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way
of emphasis without qualifying the report and did not contain statements under
section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.
This half-yearly financial report incorporates the financial review section.
Note 2 - Going concern
The Directors regularly stress-test the business model to ensure that the Group
has adequate working capital and have reviewed the current and projected
financial position of the Group, taking into account the repayment profile of
the Group's loan portfolio, and making reasonable assumptions about future
trading performance. After making detailed enquiries, and based upon current
information available to them, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that
the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the
foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis
in preparing the half-yearly financial report.
REPORT ON REVIEW OF CONDENSED SET OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF CLS HOLDINGS PLC
We have been engaged by the company to review the condensed set of financial
statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June
2009 which comprises the condensed consolidated income statement, the condensed
consolidated balance sheet, the condensed consolidated statement of
comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated statement of changes in
equity, the condensed consolidated cash flow statement and related notes 1 and
2. We have read the other information contained in the half-yearly financial
report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or
material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial
statements.
This report is made solely to the company in accordance with International
Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 "Review of Interim
Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity"
issued by the Auditing Practices Board. Our work has been undertaken so that we
might state to the company those matters we are required to state to them in an
independent review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other
than the company, for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions
we have formed.
Directors' responsibilities
The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been
approved by, the Directors. The Directors are responsible for preparing the
half-yearly financial report in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency
Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority.
As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the Group are
prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The
condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly financial
report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard
34 `Interim Financial Reporting', as adopted by the European Union.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed
set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report based on our
review.
Scope of Review
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review
Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information
Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing
Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial
information 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 (UK and Ireland) 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.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to
believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly
financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2009 is not prepared, in all
material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as
adopted by the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the
United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority.
