Information on press releases concerning Independent Limited Assurance Auditor Report on the information included in the current reports issued by the Company in accordance with requirements of Law 24/2017 (Article 82) and Regulation no. 1/2006

The Company Alro S.A. informs its shareholders as well as investors that the news releases and, especially,  the ones published by the Financial Newspaper (Ziarul Financiar), under the headline „Ernst & Young, Auditor of  Alro Slatina, finds nonconformities in the semestrial statement but, surprisingly, the Company shares increase. „The details indicated in the attached current reports are not in compliance with the agreements/contracts presented to us by the Company.” are completely false and are based on a misperception of the content of the Independent Auditor Report. 

Conclusions of the Independent Auditor Report,   publicly available on the website of the Bucharest Stock Exchange as well as on the Company’s website, are quite clear:

Conclusion:

b) The details in the attached Reporting Schedules are not, in all material respects, consistent with the requirements of the legislation.

c) The related contracts/agreements provided to us were not properly authorized by representatives of the Company.

d) The prices have not been established by mutual agreement between the parties in accordance with the type of goods/services and also by considering other terms and conditions mentioned in the respective contracts signed between the parties.

The Company together with its consultants analyses the situation and measures that are to be taken to protect the interests of the Company and its shareholders.
