Our audit report dated March 15, 2007, with respect to the consolidated balance sheets of Frozen Food Express Inc. as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three-years ended December 31, 2006 refers to the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment and the provisions of Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in the Current Year Financial Statements.
 
Our report dated March 15, 2007, on management's assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, expresses our opinion that Frozen Food Express Industries, Inc. did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 because of the effect of a material weakness on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria and contains an explanatory paragraph that states the Company lacked adequate policies and procedures to ensure the completeness and accuracy of the reserve for cargo claims. Specifically, the Company lacked (a) adequate policies and procedures to ensure the timely reporting of asserted cargo claims by personnel responsible for the daily management of those claims, and (b) adequate management supervision and review of the reserve for cargo claims. This deficiency resulted in material errors in the reserve for cargo claims and related expenses in the 2006 annual consolidated financial statements.
