Item 7Audit report To the general meeting of the shareholders of IBS AB, corporate registration number 556198-7289 We have audited the annual accounts, the consolidated accounts, the accounting records and the administration of the Board of Directors and the President of IBS AB for the year 2007. The company’s Annual Report is included in the printed version of this document on pages 37-70. These accounts and the administration of the company and the application of the Annual Accounts Act when preparing the annual accounts and EU-adopted International Financial Reporting Standards when preparing the consolidated accounts are the responsibility of the Board of Directors and the President. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the annual accounts, the consolidated accounts and the administration based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance that the annual accounts and the consolidated accounts are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the accounts. An audit also includes assessing the accounting policies
used and their application by the Board of Directors and the President and significant estimates made by the Board of Directors and the President when preparing the annual accounts and consolidated accounts as well as evaluating the overall presentation of information in the annual accounts and the consolidated accounts. As a basis for our opinion concerning discharge from liability, we examined significant decisions, actions taken and circumstances of the company in order to be able to determine the liability, if any, to the company of any Board member or the President. We also examined whether any Board member or the President has, in any other way, acted in contravention of the Companies Act, the Annual Accounts Act or the Articles of Association. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion set out below. The annual accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and thereby give a true and fair view of the company’s financial position and results of operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting policies in Sweden. The consolidated accounts have been prepared in accordance with the EU-adopted International Financial Reporting Standards and the Annual Accounts Act and thereby give a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position and results of operations. The statutory administration report is consistent with the other parts of the annual accounts and the consolidated accounts. We recommend to the Annual General Meeting that the income statements and balance sheets of the Parent Company and the Group be adopted, that the profit of the Parent Company be dealt with in accordance with the proposal in the administration report and that the members of the Board of Directors and the President be discharged from liability for the fiscal year.
