REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors
And Stockholders of
ContiFinancial Corporation:
We have audited in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated financial statements included in ContiFinancial
Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and its subsidiaries' Form 10K, and have
issued our report thereon dated July 14, 1999. Our report on the consolidated
financial statements includes a qualification paragraph noting that, as
discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
incurred a significant operating loss in fiscal 1999 and suffered a critical
loss of liquidity that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as
a going concern. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on
those statements taken as a whole. The schedule listed in the index above is the
responsibility of the Company's management and is presented for purposes of
complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and is not part of
the consolidated financial statements. This schedule has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the consolidated financial
statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in all material respects the
financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the consolidated
financial statements taken as a whole.
