SFEI's audited financial statement is available upon request. SFEI has a July 1­- June 30 fiscal year, therefore, amounts in the official audit will not correspond directly to the amounts shown here. Much of SFEI's work on the Annual Report was done during the 1998 calendar year, therefore, the final cost of the Annual Report is not reflected in these figures.
