Adjust financial statements for adjusting events - events after the balance sheet date that provide further evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, including events that indicate that the going concern assumption in relation to the whole or part of the enterprise is not appropriate. [IAS 10.8] Do not adjust for non-adjusting events - events or conditions that arose after the end of the reporting period. [IAS 10.10] If an entity declares dividends after the reporting period, the entity shall not recognise those dividends as a liability at the end of the reporting period. That is a non-adjusting event. [IAS 10.12]
