This is an adjusting event and provisions should be created if it becomes a legal obligation and probability of winning this fraud case is high. Company accounts can be adjusted.

How it is adjusting event ..
the theft was not detected earlier

This is an existing event ie., this theft happened before reporting date And discovered before statements are approved. So anything which occurred before reporting date is also an adjusting event.
