ACTRON GROUP LIMITED
Report of Independent Accountants
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Actron Group Limited:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Actron
Group Limited and its subsidiaries as at December 31, 1994, and the
related consolidated statements of income, cash flows and changes in
shareholders' equity for the year then ended. These consolidated
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards in the United States. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of Actron Group Limited and its subsidiaries as
at December 31, 1994, and the consolidated results of their operations
and cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States.
