REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Board of Directors of Stork N.V.:

We have audited the combined statements of net assets of Technical Publication
Services and its subsidiary ("TPS") representing the technical publication
operations of Stork N.V. and its subsidiaries (as defined in Note 1 of the Notes
to the Combined Financial Statements) as at December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the
related combined profit and loss accounts and cash flows for each of the years
in the two year period ended December 31, 1998. These combined financial
statements, which are expressed in Dutch Guilders, are the responsibility of
TPS's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
in the Netherlands, which are substantially the same as auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States. These standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the combined 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 combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of TPS at December 31,
1998 and 1997, and the combined results of its operations and cash flows for
each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles in the Netherlands.

Generally accepted accounting principles in the Netherlands differ in certain
significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States. Application of generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States would have affected combined results of operations for each of the years
in the two year period ended December 31, 1998 and net assets at December 31,
1998 and 1997 to the extent summarised in Note 16 to the notes to the combined
financial statements.

1 PRINCIPLES FOR THE VALUATION OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES AND THE DETERMINATION
  OF THE RESULT

GENERAL

 Basis of preparation and combination

Technical Publication Services ("Business Unit") is a business unit of
Koninklijke Machinefabriek Stork B.V. ("KMS B.V."), a private limited company
and a subsidiary of Stork N.V. The Business Unit's principal activities are the
writing and translation of operating manuals for machines and other types of
industrial documentation. TPS B.V. is a separate legal entity and is a
subsidiary of KMS B.V. It has no principal activities other than the employment
of 6 employees. All associated costs incurred by TPS B.V. are charged to the
Business Unit.

The accompanying combined financial statements of Technical Publication Services
("TPS") for the two years ended December 31, 1998 were prepared in connection
with the acquisition of TPS by ALPNET, Inc. in order to show the financial
position, profit and loss account and cash flows for TPS as a whole. They have
been prepared by aggregating the financial information included within the
consolidated accounts of KMS B.V. relating to the Business Unit and TPS B.V. and
as if TPS had formed a discreet operation for the entire two year period. KMS
B.V. financial statements are submitted to Stork N.V. for inclusion in its
consolidated accounts.

TPS is not a separate legal entity, it has not been separately financed and has
not necessarily been subject to full taxation on its results. In addition,
central management and pension charges reflect the cost structure and pension
arrangements for Stork N.V. Central management and pension charges and taxation
have been reflected in the combined financial statements on the basis and to the
extent indicated below.

Certain central management and other similar costs have been directly attributed
to the Business Unit and TPS B.V. based on an appropriate allocation of such
costs between other Stork N.V. businesses and TPS's operations.

The pension cost attributable to TPS has been based on the actual premiums paid
by Stork N.V. relating to the individual employees working for TPS.

During the two years ended December 31, 1998, the operations of TPS were not
separate legal entities or did not operate within the business structure
reflected in the combined financial statements and were not necessarily subject
to full taxation of their results. The tax charge attributable to TPS has been
based on 35% of the statutory tax rate applied to pre-tax earnings.

The principles applied in respect of the valuation of assets and liabilities and
determination of the result are the Stork N.V accounting principles and
practises. Due to their materiality and relevance, the applied practices have
been adjusted for the following aspects:

 .  the bad debts provision does not include a general provision;
 .  the work in progress provision made for expected losses does not include a
   general provision;
 .  the warranty provision is accounted for based on the estimated warranty
   costs;
 .  the accrual for completed projects has been based on the expected costs to be
   incurred in the future.

EXHIBIT 99.1 (continued)

Notes to the combined financial statements (con't)

Insofar as not stated otherwise, monetary assets and liabilities are shown at
nominal value.

TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

Machinery and equipment are valued at historical cost. Depreciation is
calculated using the straight-line method on the basis of useful life.

The rates of depreciation are:
 .  Machinery:               10%
 .  Other equipment:  6,67 - 20%

RAW MATERIALS

Raw materials are valued at historical cost less a provision for obsolescence.

WORK IN PROGRESS

Work in progress is stated at direct costs plus an allocation of indirect costs
which includes an allocation for charges for innovation, less provisions made
for expected losses and amounts billed. Profits are recognised in the profit and
loss account on completion of the project ("completed contract method").

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable are stated at nominal value less a bad debt provision.

CASH AT BANKS AND IN HAND

Cash at banks and in hand are stated at nominal value.

PROVISIONS

Warranty provisions

The warranty provision is accounted for based on the estimated warranty costs.

RESTRUCTURING PROVISIONS

The restructuring provision is accounted for based on the estimated redundancy
costs of personnel.

COMBINED PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT

NET TURNOVER

Net turnover includes the proceeds from the sale and delivery of goods and
services after deducting discounts and bonuses as well as taxes on sales.

EXPENSES

Expenses are included in the profit and loss account at historical costs.

INTEREST

The profit and loss account does not include interest charges or interest income
as the operations of TPS are funded through operating cash flows and advances
from KMS, if any, which are on an interest free basis.

INCOME TAXES

TPS forms part of the fiscal unity of Stork N.V for tax purposes. For purposes
of these combined financial statements, the income taxes are calculated as if
TPS were a stand-alone legal entity. The tax expense is calculated at 35% of
pre-tax earnings, which is the statutory income tax rate in the Netherlands.

16 DIFFERENCES BETWEEN DUTCH GAAP AND US GAAP

The combined financial statements of TPS have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the Netherlands (Dutch GAAP) which
differ in certain significant respects from those generally accepted in the
United States (US GAAP).

The principal differences are set out below.

1.   The pension cost included in the combined profit and loss accounts are
     computed in accordance with Dutch GAAP. For defined benefit plans, those
     amounts are based upon the actuarially determined premiums which TPS is
     required to pay each year. No assets or obligations in respect of these
     benefits is included in the combined statements of net assets. Under US
     GAAP pension costs are determined in accordance with Statement No.
     87,"Employer's Accounting for Pensions" which requires that pension costs
     be determined based on a comparison of the projected benefit obligation
     with the market value of the underlying plan assets and other unrecognised
     gains and losses on an actuarial basis and the accrual or prepaid pension
     costs are recorded in the balance sheet.
2.   Under Dutch GAAP, TPS recognises the profit or loss on work in progress as
     the work is completed (completed contract method). Under US GAAP, the
     percentage of completion method is required if progress and costs to
     completion can be estimated. The US GAAP adjustment is the difference
     between profit recognised under Dutch GAAP and profit recognised based on
     percentage of completion as determined under US GAAP.
3.   Under Dutch GAAP and for purposes of these combined financial statements,
     certain corporate charges are made by KMS to TPS and have been included in
     the cost of sales. For US GAAP purposes charges in excess of actual costs
     incurred by KMS would not qualify for recognition in the profit and loss
     accounts. Accordingly, these excess costs have been removed.

ALPNET, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES


Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

1.  Basis of Presentation

On July 30, 1999, the Registrant entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to
acquire the entire outstanding share capital of Technical Publishing Services
B.V. ("TPS"), formerly Stork TPS, a Dutch corporation based in Hengelo, The
Netherlands.  The purchase price approximated $6,392,000.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet assumes the
acquisition took place as of June 30, 1999 and combines ALPNET's unaudited
consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1999 with TPS' unaudited balance sheet
as of June 30, 1999.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations assume that the
acquisition took place as of the beginning of 1998 and then carried forward into
fiscal 1999.  ALPNET's consolidated statements of operations for the periods
presented include the acquistion of EP Publishing Partners GmbH ("EP") as
previously filed in the Current Report on Form 8-K/A dated September 10, 1999.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations combine:

ALPNET's consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31,
1998 (including EP) and TPS' statement of operations for the year ended December
31, 1998, and

ALPNET's consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30,
1999 (including EP) and TPS' statement of operations for the six months ended
June 30, 1999.

There were no material transactions between ALPNET and TPS during the periods
presented.

There are no material differences between the accounting policies of ALPNET and
TPS.

The pro forma consolidated provision for income taxes may not represent the
amounts that would have resulted had ALPNET and TPS filed consolidated income
tax returns during the periods presented.


2.   TPS

The amounts shown in the TPS column of the unaudited pro forma consolidated
statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1998 have been adjusted
to reflect certain US GAAP adjustments as detailed in the notes to the combined
financial statements of TPS.


3.    Pro Forma Adjustments

The pro forma adjustments are based on ALPNET management's estimates.  In
addition, management is in the process of assessing and formulating its
integration plans and does not foresee any material charges or credits against
income during the 12 months succeeding the acquisition.

3.      Pro Forma Adjustments (continued)

(a) In conjunction with the acquisition, ALPNET obtained a loan from STORK
    N.V., a Netherlands corporation and former parent of TPS ("STORK"), in the
    amount of NLG 1,700,000 (approximately $797,000). The proceeds from the loan
    were used to satisfy the current account due to STORK (NLG 1,220,000 or
    $572,000 as of June 30, 1999) from TPS and to provide additional funding for
    ALPNET. The additional funding of $225,000 ($797,000 less $572,000) is
    included as a pro forma adjustment. Per the loan agreement, the loan bears
    interest at 5 percent and is to be repaid on July 31, 2000.

(b) The purchase price of approximately $6,392,000, including acquisition costs,
    was allocated entirely to goodwill which is being amortized over a period of
    12 years, its estimated useful life. The purchase price was paid with
    3,000,000 shares of ALPNET common stock with a fair value approximating
    $6,136,000 and includes acquisition costs approximating $256,000.

(c) The pro forma consolidated statements of operations include certain internal

ALPNET, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

4.    Pro Forma Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Pro forma income (loss) per share - basic was calculated based on the issuance
of approximately 3,000,000 shares of ALPNET common stock.  Pro forma loss per
share - assuming dilution, at December 31, 1998, does not include any common
stock equivalents as their effect would be anti-dilutive.  Pro forma income per
share - assuming dilution, at June 30, 1999, includes 3,876,000 ALPNET common
shares of which approximately 876,000 are attributable to shares of ALPNET
common stock which will be issued in part or in whole contingent upon the stock
price at July 30, 2000, as defined in the stock purchase agreement which was
previously filed in the Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 10, 1999.
