This unaudited Consolidated profit and loss account has been converted from Microsoft's audited consolidated income statement into local currency and adjusted for accounting principles and format that are generally accepted in the United Kingdom. This presentation differs in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States that are used in Microsoft's primary financial statements and its filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The Microsoft 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders and the Form 10-K are available on this Web site or copies may be obtained by writing to the Company.

All figures have been translated at the average exchange rate for the year (£1 = USD 1.6474).
