db normalization

Is there ever a justification for NOT normalizing a db?

A consultant and I are in a debate right now. We have an Access db which
essentially acts as a data repository, from which data are reported upon once
a month in Excel.

My take: the db should be normalized.

His take: the db doesn't need to be normalized because it is not being
queried daily.

Thoughts?
