+Added: The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome

+Added: financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.
+Added: Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s

+Added: Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
+Added: audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error
+Added: or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.
+Added: Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding
+Added: the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
+Added: Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant
+Added: estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
+Added: We believe that our audits
+Added: provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
+Added: Audit Matters
+Added: critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated
+Added: or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that:
+Added: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial
+Added: statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.

+Added: does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit
+Added: matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
+Added: of Impairment
+Added: Company is required to test the carrying amount of goodwill at least annually, or more frequently upon the occurrence of certain events.
+Added: The Company is also required to assess the recoverability of its long-lived assets, including its amortizable intangible assets, whenever
+Added: certain events occur or circumstances change that may be indicators of impairment.
+Added: We identified this area as a critical audit matter
+Added: because the annual goodwill impairment test and the evaluation of recovery of long-lived assets requires significant judgment regarding
+Added: the evaluation of qualitative factors.
+Added: Additionally, these assessments also require appropriate determination of reporting units and
+Added: asset groups, including the allocation of acquired tangible and intangible assets to such groupings.
+Added: The evaluation of a certain asset
+Added: group also required comparison of future non-discounted cash flows to the carrying value of the asset group, which required estimates
+Added: of future cash flows associated with that asset group, including growth rates, profitability rates and estimates of other sources and
+Added: uses of cash such as changes in working capital and capital expenditures.
+Added: The Company engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist
+Added: with its assessment.
+Added: audit procedures to address the risk of material misstatement relating to goodwill and intangible assets included, among others, evaluating
+Added: the appropriateness of asset groupings at the reporting unit level and asset group level.
+Added: We also evaluated management’s assessment
+Added: of qualitative factors associated with the reporting unit containing goodwill and associated with all relevant asset groups.
+Added: Our procedures
+Added: also included evaluating management’s forecast of non-discounted cash flows associated with a certain asset group where a qualitative
+Added: factor required such further analysis.
+Added: We also assessed the competence, independence, qualifications, experience, and capabilities of
+Added: the third-party valuation specialist, and evaluated the appropriateness and reasonableness of the methodology and assumptions used by
+Added: comparing them to external and historical data;
+Added: testing the calculation and forecast model for mathematical accuracy;
+Added: validating the
+Added: appropriateness and reliability of inputs and amounts used;
+Added: and evaluating the adequacy of the financial statement disclosures relating
+Added: to goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, including disclosure of key assumptions and judgments.
+Added: As a result of our
+Added: testing we did not take exception to management’s conclusion that no impairment should be recognized related to goodwill or long-lived
+Added: assets for the year ended December 31, 2022.
