REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Nordstrom, Inc. Seattle, Washington We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Nordstrom, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of January 31, 2015,  based on criteria established in  Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013),  issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the  Treadway Commission. The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for  its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying  Management’s Report on  Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial  reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit 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 effective internal control over financial  reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting,  assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on  the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit  provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive  and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management, and  other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for  external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes  those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the  transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to  permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of  the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide  reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that  could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management  override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any  evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may  become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2015,  based on the criteria established in  Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013)  issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of  the Treadway Commission. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the  consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended January 31, 2015 of the Company and our report dated March 16, 2015  expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Seattle, Washington March 16, 2015  Nordstrom, Inc. and subsidiaries 67
