We have rendered the audit opinion in German, which was translated as follows:
“Auditor’s Report
We have audited the consolidated financial statements prepared by the Evotec AG, Hamburg, comprising the balance sheet, the statements of operations, statements of changes in stock- holder’s equity, cash flow statement and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, together with the Group management report for the business year from January 1 to December 31, 2008. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements and the Group management report in accordance with IFRSs, as adopted by EU, and the additional requirements of German commercial law pursuant to section 315a par. 1 HGB (Handelsgesetzbuch, ‘German Commercial Code’) are the responsibility of the parent company’s manage- ment. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consol- idated financial statements and on the Group management report based on our audit.
We conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with section 317 HGB and German generally ac- cepted standards for the audit of financial statements promul- gated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (‘Institute of Public Auditors in Germany’, IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit such that misstatements materially affecting the presentation of the net assets, financial position and results of operations in the consolidated financial state- ments in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework and in the Group management report are detected with reasonable assurance. Knowledge of the business activ- ities and the economic and legal environment of the Group and expectations as to possible misstatements are taken into account in the determination of audit procedures. The effectiveness of the accounting-related internal control system and the evidence supporting the disclosures in the consol- idated financial statements and the Group management report are examined primarily on a test basis within the framework of the audit. The audit includes assessing the annual financial statements of those entities included in consolidation, the determination of entities to be included in consolidation, the accounting and consolidation principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements and Group management report. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Our audit has not led to any reservations.
In our opinion, based on the findings of our audit, the consol- idated financial statements comply with IFRSs, as adopted by the EU, the additional requirements of German commercial law pursuant to section 315a par. 1 HGB and give a true and fair view of the net assets, financial position and results of opera- tions of the Group in accordance with these requirements. The Group management report is consistent with the consolidated financial statements and as a whole provides a suitable view of the Group’s position and suitably presents the opportunities and risks of future development.”
