Its the audit that takes place in the middle of the year. Its a common practice for companies to have an interim audit for many reasons. For example, having an interim audit will help the year end audit to finish earlier as less evidence will be collected.

I agree with the answer Abrar professor and Distinguished Professors
INTERIM AUDIT is an audit conducted during the fiscal year usually as a means of minimizing the work and time involved in concluding the audit after the fiscal year. A corporation might have an interim audit covering the first nine months of the fiscal year so that at the end of the fiscal year most of the auditing will focus on the last three months of the fiscal year thus allowing for a comprehensive audit and early completion of the audit reports. An interim audit does not usually yield any formal reports from the external auditors

I would just like to add that apart from financial audits there is another type of audits that is done by the client in a bpo. Based on the audit the client could decide whether the cotract is to be extended or not. It is very bad time for emploees in the BPO as any answer by an emploee not liked by the client could cost his /her job. Some take casual leaves when the audit takes place.
The examination, monitoring and analysis of activities related to a company's operation, including its business structure, employee behavior. An internal audit is designed to review what a company is doing in order to identify potential threats to the organization's health and profitability, and to make suggestions for mitigating the risk associated with those threats in order to minimize costs.
