Advanced Info Service : Report of the Auditor (financial statement yearly 2025

About this update from Advanced Info Service Public Co., Ltd.
Advanced Info Service Public Company Limited and its Subsidiaries Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 and Independent Auditor's Report 2 Independent Auditor's Report To the shareholders of Advanced Info Service Public Company Limited Opinion I have audited the consolidated and separate financial statements of Advanced Info Service Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries (the "Group") and of Advanced Info Service Public Company Limited (the "Company"), respectively, which comprise the consolidated and separate statements of financial position as at 31 December 2025, the consolidated and separate statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes, comprising a summary of material accounting policies and other explanatory information. In my opinion, the accompanying consolidated and separate financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group and the Company, respectively, as at 31 December 2025 and their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Thai Financial Reporting Standards (TFRSs). Basis for Opinion I conducted my audit in accordance with Thai Standards on Auditing (TSAs). My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements section of my report. I am independent of the Group and the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants including Independence Standards issued by the Federation of Accounting Professions (Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants) that is relevant to my audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements, and I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in my professional judgment, were of most significance in my audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of my audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements as a whole, and in forming my opinion thereon, and I do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Revenue recognition Refer to Note 3(q), and 22 to consolidated and separate financial statements. The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in the audit For the main operating revenues - mobile service, data and internet and sale of equipment, there is a risk around the accuracy and existence of revenue recognition given the complexity of systems and the impact of changing pricing models. In addition, the application of the revenue recognition accounting standard is complex. I consider the accounting treatments relevant to the accuracy and existence of revenue recognition as a key audit matter. My audit procedure included the following: · Evaluated the relevant IT systems, and the design and implementation and operating effectiveness of automated controls over the capture of data and interfaces between relevant IT applications, measurement and billing of revenue, and the recording of entries in the general ledger. · Evaluated the process controls over authorising rate changes, new price plans, and the input of this information to the relevant billing systems. We also tested the access controls and change management controls over the systems. · Checked the accuracy of customer bill generation on a sample basis, tested a sample of the credits and discounts applied to customer bills, and tested cash receipts for a sample of customers back to their customer invoices. · Checked key reconciliations used by management from business support systems to billing systems and the general ledger to assess the completeness and accuracy of revenue. · Checked supporting evidence for manual journal entries posted to revenue accounts to identify any unusual items. · Challenged the assumptions and key management estimates adopted where revenue is recognized but the invoice has not yet been issued. · Assessed the appropriateness of the revenue recognition policies for the products and services offered by the Group in respect of TFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers , including the appropriateness of the transaction prices and their allocation to performance obligations identified within bundled contracts based on stand-alone selling prices. Significant commercial disputes and litigation Refer to Note 3(p), and 32 to consolidated and separate the financial statements. The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in the audit The Group's has a number of significant commercial disputes and litigation from which the Group may be exposed to significant losses as a result of any unfavourable outcome of such disputes. Significant judgement is required by management in assessing the likelihood of the outcome of each matter and whether the risk of loss is remote, possible or probable and whether the matter is considered a contingent liability to be disclosed. Where the risk of loss is probable, management is required to estimate the provision amount based on the expected economic outflow resulting from the disputes and litigation. I consider this as a key audit matter. My audit procedure included the following: · Inquired with the management and legal department regarding the procedures followed to collect and monitor all litigation and disputes. · Examined legal expense accounts. · Read minutes of meetings of management executives who monitor commercial disputes and litigation, and correspondence between the management and its external legal counsel. · Inquired with the legal department and external legal counsel as to the progress of the litigation and disputes and their opinion on the possibility of outcomes. · Compared the legal department and external legal counsel's opinion on the possibilities of outcomes to the provisions set up or contingent liability disclosures. · Requested management to provide written representation that all known actual or possible litigation and claims whose effects should be considered when preparing the financial statements have been disclosed to me. · Considered the adequacy of the Group's disclosures in accordance with the related Thai Financial Reporting Standards. Other Information Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, but does not include the consolidated and separate financial statements and my auditor's report thereon. The annual report is expected to be made available to me after the date of this auditor's report. My opinion on the consolidated and separate financial statements does not cover the other information and I will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with my audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements, my responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated and separate financial statements or my knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. When I read the annual report, if I conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, I am required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and request that the correction be made. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated and separate financial statements in accordance with TFRSs, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated and separate financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the consolidated and separate financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group's and the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group and the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group's and the Company's financial reporting process. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated and separate financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes my opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with TSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated and separate financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with TSAs, I exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. I also: · Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated and separate financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. · Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's and the Company's internal control. · Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. · Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's and the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated and separate financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of my auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group and the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. · Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated and separate financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated and separate financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. · Plan and perform the group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the Group as a basis for forming an opinion on the group financial statements. I am responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for purposes of the group audit. I remain solely responsible for my audit opinion. I communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that I identify during my audit. I also provide those charged with governance with a statement that I have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on my independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, I determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. I describe these matters in my auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, I determine that a matter should not be communicated in my report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
