REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
TELEMIG CELULAR PARTICIPACOES S.A.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Telemig Celular
Participacoes S.A. as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related
consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
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 audits 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. 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Telemig Celular
Participacoes S.A. at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the consolidated results
of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.
As discussed in Note 3.j to the consolidated financial statements, in 2001 the
Company changed its method of accounting for derivative financial instruments.
