We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of misstatement. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In ouropinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly the financial position of Bellamy Corporation as of December31, 2013, and the results of its operations for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted auditingstandards, applied on a basis consistent with those of the preceding year.
