When an issuer has not engaged its auditor to perform a review, it is critical that the issuer clearly disclose this fact in a notice accompanying its interim financial report. This disclosure is important as it alerts investors and other users of the financial statements that the issuer’s auditor did not complete a review of the interim financial report. With this disclosure, users of financial statements are able to determine the amount of reliance they may place on an issuer’s interim financial report when deciding to buy or sell investments throughout the year.
