Report of Independent Auditors
Board of Trustees
University of Notre Dame du Lac
Notre Dame, Indiana
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position and the related consolidated statements of changes in unrestricted net assets, changes in net assets and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the University of Notre Dame du Lac (the “University”) and its subsidiaries at June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the changes in their net assets and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the University’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
