CSC schikt voor 190 miljoen dollar (2)

08 juni 2015

Geen van de berichten van dit weekend rept over de controlerend accountant van CSC: Deloitte & Touche LLP.

De SEC beschuldigt de top van CSC van het jarenlang valselijk presenteren van te hoge omzetten en winsten. De auditors van CSC waren en zijn Deloitte & Touche LLP, die in de jaarverslagen van 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 en 2014 lovend rapporteren over zowel de interne control van CSC, de juistheid van de gepresenteerde cijfers als de kwaliteit van de door CSC gebruikte accounting principles.

De daarbij gebruikte teksten blijven jaar na jaar dezelfde:

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 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Computer Sciences Corporation and subsidiaries as of March 30, 2012 and April 1, 2011 [ resp: as of March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012, as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013] and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended March 30, 2012[ 2013, 2014] , in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 30, 2012 [2013,2014], based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated May 29, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.”

In het jaarverslag over fiscal year 2014 wordt wel netjes melding gemaakt van het SEC-onderzoek…
