REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Starbucks Corporation
Seattle, Washington
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Starbucks Corporation and subsidiaries (the
“Company”) as of October 2, 2011 and October 3, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, equity,
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended October 2, 2011. 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 audit 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Starbucks Corporation and subsidiaries as of October 2, 2011 and October 3, 2010, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended October 2, 2011, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of October 2, 2011, based on criteria established
in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission and our report dated November 18, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
