Annual Report <strong>2005</strong><br />
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm<br />
The Board of Directors and Shareholders<br />
Open Joint Stock Company “Vimpel-Communications”<br />
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Open Joint Stock Company “Vimpel-Communications”<br />
(“<strong>VimpelCom</strong>”) as of December 31, <strong>2005</strong> and 2004 and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity<br />
and accumulated other comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December<br />
31, <strong>2005</strong>. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of <strong>VimpelCom</strong>'s management. Our responsibility<br />
is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.<br />
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United<br />
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the<br />
financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of <strong>VimpelCom</strong>’s internal<br />
control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for<br />
designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on<br />
the effectiveness of <strong>VimpelCom</strong>’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An<br />
audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,<br />
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall<br />
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.<br />
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the<br />
consolidated financial position of Open Joint Stock Company “Vimpel-Communications” at December 31, <strong>2005</strong> and 2004,<br />
and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December<br />
31, <strong>2005</strong>, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.<br />
