Statement of the type of external auditor's report Emphasis of Matter
Modification, Qualification or Emphasis of a Matter as Stated within the External Auditor Opinion Unmodified Conclusion - nothing has come to the attention of the Auditors that causes them to believe that the interim condensed financial statements of Medgulf are not prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as endorsed by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Attention is drawn at the notes of the FS, whereby an emphasis of matter has been disclosed, regarding the going concern of the Company - the accummulated losses as at 30 June 2023 are 34.1% of the subscribed capital decreasing from the ones at 31 December 2022, which stood at 43.7%. These events and conditions indicate a material uncertainty on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, various strategic options and optimization solutions have been considered by the Company's Board of Directors.

Based on the above, the Company's management has assessed its ability to continue as a going concern and is satisfied that the Company's operations shall continue for the foreseeable future under the normal course of business. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis and do not include any adjustments, which may be required, if the Company is not able to continue as a going concern.

The auditors' conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
