Item 8. Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of VIVIC CORP.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of VIVIC CORP. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit as of June 30, 2024, and negative cash flows from operations. The Company does not have sustained and stable income, and there is also significant uncertainty in the income for the next 12 months. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 3. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statement. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or are required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.
Evaluation of the Identification of Related Parties and Related Party Transactions
Description of the Matter
As disclosed in Notes 16 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company engages in transactions with related parties, which are integral to its operations. These transactions include prepayments of goods and working capital injections. We identified the evaluation of the identification of related parties and related-party transactions as a critical audit matter due to the complexity and the inherent risk of omission or incomplete disclosure of related parties and their transactions. The potential for these transactions to not be conducted on arm’s length terms, along with the extensive nature of transactions.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
In order to address the matter above, our audit procedures included, among others,
| (1) | Gaining and understanding of the Company’s process for identifying related parties and related-party transactions, reviewing the Company’s policies and procedures for identifying and disclosing such relationships and transactions, as well as the controls in place to ensure completeness and accuracy. |
| (2) | Conducting inquiries with management and those charged with governance to identify all related parties and understand the nature of transactions with these parties. We also obtained confirmations from identified related parties to corroborate the information provided by management. |
| (3) | For significant related-party transactions identified during the audit, we reviewed the underlying contracts and agreements to assess whether the terms and conditions were consistent with those of arm’s length transactions. |
| (4) | Conducting targeted searches for potential undisclosed related-party relationship using the names of the entities, key management personnel, significant shareholders and known related parties. |
| (5) | Reviewing the financial statement disclosures related to related parties and related-party transactions to ensure they were complete and in accordance with the relevant financial reporting framework. |
