In this article in Accounting Today by Michael Cohn, Mitt Romney has said he has been audited in the past and implied his tax preparer did a good job, so I assume he didn’t owe any additional taxes:

One point Romney made in the article was that he paid what was legally due, so he is following the most important tax planning strategy – don’t pay the government anymore taxes than you are required to.
Call me or email me if you want to discuss this or think you pay too much tax.
