Explanation:
This is an additional audit review which the WP is required by the HGB to carry out if the previously audited accounts are changed.

"Die Nachtragsprüfung gem. § 316 Abs.3 HGB ist eine erneute (Teil-)Prüfung geänderter Teile eines bereits geprüften Jahresabschlusses bzw. Lageberichts." => bei Änderungen des JA oder KA
http://www.stud.uni-siegen.de/fsr5/skripte/Krawitz/jahresabs...

This may have a number of reasons including the desire to improve on a qualified audit report:
' Nach Einschätzung des neuen Vorstandes ist aufgrund des eingeschränkten Bestätigungsvermerkes für das Geschäftsjahr 2002 eine Nachtragsprüfung gemäß § 316 (3) HGB erforderlich'

I don't think there is an equivalent for this in UK/US practice, except maybe in special one-off circumstances, but maybe someone can come up with a more precise translation
