I am trying to find NOT unqualified opinion. Some reports do not say "unqaulified." Does it mean that they are NOT UNQUALIFIED? Here is a report. If it is not unqualified, please explain me why it is not unqualified. In other words, it is qualified or adverse.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Duonas Corp.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Duonas Corp. as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, and the related statement of operations, changes in stockholdersâ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companyâs 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits include examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also include 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 financial position of Duonas Corp. as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 and the related statement of operations, changes in stockholdersâ equity and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has had no revenues and earnings since inception. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Companyâs ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 2, which includes achieving profitable operations and raising additional funds. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The following report was drafted on October 25, 2015, by Major,CPA, at the comple-
tion of an engagement to compile the financial statements of AjaxCompany for the fis-
cal year ended September 30, 2015. Ajax is a non-public entity inwhich Majorâs child

has a material direct financial interest. Ajax decided to omitsubstantially all of the

disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principlesbecause the financial

statements will be for managementâs use only. The statement ofcash flows was also

omitted because management does not believe it to be a usefulfinancial statement.

To the Board of Directors of Ajax Company:

I have compiled the accompanying financial statements of AjaxCompany as of

September 30, 2015, and for the year then ended. I planned andperformed the compila-
tion to obtain limited assurance about whether the financialstatements are free of material

misstatements.

Management is responsible for the preparation and fairpresentation of the financial

statements in accordance with accounting principles generallyaccepted in the United

States of America and for designing, implementing, andmaintaining internal control rel-
evant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financialstatements.

My responsibility is to conduct the compilation in accordancewith Statements on Stan-
dards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the AmericanInstitute of Certified

Public Accountants. It is substantially less in scope than anaudit in accordance with gen-
erally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is theexpression of an opinion

regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. I have notaudited the accompanying

financial statements and, accordingly, do not express anyopinion on them.

Management has elected to omit substantially all of thedisclosures required by

accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica. If the omit-
ted disclosures were included in the financial statements, theymight influence the userâs

conclusions about the companyâs financial position, results ofoperations, and cash flows.

I am not independent with respect to Ajax Company. This lack ofindependence is due

to my daughterâs ownership of a material direct financialinterest in Ajax Company.

This report is intended solely for the information and use ofthe board of directors and

management of Ajax Company and should not be used for any otherpurpose.

Major, CPA
