DOrSU earns ‘Unmodified Opinion’ for 2024 Financial Statements

Davao Oriental State University (DOrSU) has once again demonstrated its commitment to transparency and good governance, receiving an ‘Unmodified Opinion’ from the Commission on Audit (COA) for its 2024 Financial Statements—the highest rating COA confers for fair and accurate financial reporting.
The official Annual Audit Report was formally transmitted to University President Dr. Roy G. Ponce by COA Regional Director Atty. Emilio A. Asi, Jr. The audit was conducted in accordance with international public sector auditing standards and confirmed that DOrSU’s financial statements are in full compliance with government accounting rules and reflect sound financial management.
An unmodified opinion, also known as an unqualified opinion, means that the university’s financial statements are presented correctly in all material respects.
This achievement is a testament to the strategic leadership of Dr. Ponce and the tireless efforts of the university’s finance team—including the Accounting Office, Budget Office, and other administrative units—who have worked diligently to uphold the university’s financial integrity.
Congratulations to the entire DOrSU community for this significant milestone!
