FINANCIAL REPORT
2004

Commercial software and advances paid
The notes relating to “Commercial software” and “Advances and installments paid” in the section titled “Accounting principles”
describes the procedures used to record additional amortization at the close of the fiscal year. Our task was to evaluate the
data and premises on which these estimates were based and to review the calculations performed by the company. As part of
our assessment, we verified that these estimates could be considered reasonable.
Our evaluations were conducted within the context of our audit of the annual accounts as a whole and in part, and provided a
basis for the unqualified opinion that we expressed in the initial portion of this report.
III - Specific audits and information
In accordance with accepted professional standards in France, we have also carried out the specific audits required by law.
We have no criticisms to make with regard to the accuracy of the information given in the management report prepared by the
Board of Directors or in the documents sent to shareholders concerning the financial situation and annual accounts, or with
regard to its consistency with the annual accounts.
As required by law, we have ascertained that the various information relating to acquisition of equity holdings and control and
to the identity of the holders of share capital was given to you in the management report.
