We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of NUWAVE Technologies,

statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.
We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements enumerated above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of NUWAVE Technologies,
Inc. at December 31, 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the amounts for such year included in
