We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Electronic Business Machines, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 1996 and May 31, 1997, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the two years ended December 31, 1996 and the five-month period ended May 31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 1996 and May 31, 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years ended December 31, 1996 and the five-month period ended May 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
