FRANKFURT (Reuters) – German financial services company Wirecard on Tuesday said an independent investigation by auditor KPMG delivered no evidence of suspect balance sheets.
Having received the special audit report overnight, Wirecard said none of four areas of its audit had yielded significant findings that would have required an adjustment of annual accounts in 2016 through 2018.
“Incriminating evidence for the public allegations of balance sheet forgery has not been identified,” Wirecard said.
Wirecard shares were down 2% in early Frankfurt trade.
