The Vienna, Virginia, office of Grant Thornton LLP (Grant Thornton), and the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), performed the single audit for The CNA Corporation (CNA), Alexandria, Virginia, a nonprofit organization.

The Grant Thornton audit report is dated November 20, 1996. Grant Thornton issued an unqualified opinion on the financial statements, Schedule of Federal Awards, internal controls and compliance requirements. The DCAA audit report on incurred costs is dated October 31, 1997.
