Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Systemax Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Systemax Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and
2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2010. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These
financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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 consolidated financial position of
Systemax Inc. at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion,
the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly
in all material respects the information set forth therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States),
Systemax Inc.’ s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control-
Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated
March 17, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
