In 2025, the Audit Committee convened a total of 5 meetings in accordance with a pre-scheduled meeting plan. All Audit Committee members attended all meetings. 1 meeting was held with the external auditor without the presence of the management, to ensure the auditor’s independence in obtaining information and in auditing material information used in the preparation of the financial statements. In addition, 4 joint meetings were held between the Audit Committee and the Risk Management Committee to receive information and exchange views on risk management. (Details of attendance by each Audit Committee member are shown in the Board of Directors’ meeting attendance table under the Corporate Governance topic.) At Audit Committee meetings, the management of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as the external auditor, attended to present information and receive views and recommendations beneficial to management. The outcomes of each meeting are reported to the Board of Directors as a regular agenda item.
During the past year, the Audit Committee carried out the following key activities:
- Reviewed the accuracy, completeness, and reliability of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ quarterly and annual financial statements in accordance with financial reporting standards. The review covered material matters and special items, and included explanations received from the external auditor and the management, until the Audit Committee was assured that the financial statements were prepared in compliance with legal requirements and financial reporting standards, prior to submission to the Board of Directors.
- Reviewed and assessed the adequacy of the internal control system, including information technology internal controls, to provide assurance that the Company’s operations were efficient and effective and able to achieve the established objectives. The review found that the Board of Directors, the management, and employees strictly complied with the established policies.
- Reviewed compliance with the securities and exchange laws, the regulations of the Stock Exchange of Thailand, laws relevant to the Company’s business, principles of good corporate governance, and the Company’s rules and policies, including the anti-corruption policy. The Company has implemented the anti-corruption policy in a serious manner through participation in the Thai Private Sector Collective Action against Corruption (CAC).
- Reviewed transactions that may involve conflicts of interest to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations as prescribed by the Capital Market Supervisory Board and other relevant authorities. Related party transactions or transactions that may involve conflicts of interest were required to be submitted to the Audit Committee for consideration and approval prior to submission to the Board of Directors for approval.
- Oversaw the accounting and financial reporting systems to provide assurance that appropriate internal control systems were established for relevant processes, covering fraud or corruption risks, and that such controls were fully implemented and operated effectively.
- Reviewed risk management practices, including the review of risk management policies, compliance with such policies, and risk management approaches with the management, and held joint meetings with the Risk Management Committee to align risk management with internal audit in a consistent direction, ensuring effective and efficient risk management. The Audit Committee also provided advice to the management on investment decision criteria, taking into account the Company’s objectives (Key Corporate Performance Appraisal) together with enterprise-level risk assessments relating to generation capacity targets, new business targets, operating performance targets, financial targets, sustainability targets, etc.
- Oversaw internal audit activities to provide assurance that internal audit operations were conducted efficiently and effectively. This included approving the annual internal audit plan and the long-term audit plan and providing additional recommendations on audit frequency to ensure close monitoring of changing circumstances, operating environments, and project risks. The Audit Committee acknowledged internal audit reports, and for projects with significant audit findings requiring follow-up, requested that such matters be further reported to the Committee for joint consideration with management. The Audit Committee also provided opinions on internal controls to ensure that they were sufficiently robust to prevent or mitigate potential risks, recommended greater use of digital technology in internal audit to enhance the efficiency of data analysis, and provided recommendations on operational approaches, follow-up, and corrective actions. Furthermore, the Audit Committee considered the appropriateness of the internal audit budget, staffing levels, and personnel development, and recommended improvements to the quality of internal audit work in line with international standards by applying the results of the internal audit Quality Assurance Review conducted by an external advisor, to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the internal audit system in accordance with professional internal auditing standards and recognized international best practices.
In conclusion, the Audit Committee is of the opinion that the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries were prepared in accordance with financial reporting standards, with adequate disclosure, and are accurate, complete, and reliable. The internal control system and risk management were adequate, efficient, and effective, with clear separation of duties. No material weaknesses or deficiencies in the internal control system were identified, and no observations or issues relating to fraud or corruption were noted. The business operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, including related party transactions, were conducted in compliance with the securities and exchange laws, the regulations of the Stock Exchange of Thailand, and other relevant laws, consistent with the assessment of the Company’s external auditor.
