1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Concentration of cash
The Company at times maintains cash balances in excess of the federally insured limit of $100,000 per institution. There were balances that exceeded $100,000, and the uninsured balances at June 30, 2004, were $152,363. There were no uninsured balances as of December 31, 2003.
D. Income Taxes
The Company utilizes SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The Company is subject to California and New York State franchise taxes.
E. Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenues are derived from three sources.
The Company’s primary source of revenue is from model services provided to print media. Revenue for print media is recorded when the models have completed the fashion shoot. The revenue is recorded at gross billings, which includes all agency fees. Costs of revenues consist of payments due to the models for services rendered and expenses and costs incurred for models in performance of those services.
The second source of revenue is from commissions on payments received by models and actors for appearing in television and cable commercials. The Company records a commission of 10% to 15% when cash is received.
The third source of revenues is from photographers doing work for print media. The revenue from photographers is recorded when the photographers work/job is completed. The revenue is recorded as gross billings. Costs of revenues consist of payments due to the photographers for services rendered and expenses and costs incurred for photographers in performance of those services.

F. Advertising Costs
All advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
G. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Management makes estimates that affect reserves for doubtful accounts, depreciation and reserves for any other commitments or contingencies. Any adjustments applied to estimates are recognized in the year in which such adjustments are determined.
H. Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information
The Company follows SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” SFAS No. 131 requires that a public business enterprise (optional for a private enterprise) report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments on the basis that is used internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. Currently, the Company operates in only one segment.
I. Business Risks and Credit Concentrations
The Company operates in the high-end fashion modeling industry segment, which is rapidly evolving and highly competitive. The Company relies on clients engaging its models. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to provide models to support its operations.
The Company advances funds to its models, talent and photographers for preparing model and talent portfolios, prints, delivery travel costs and other costs. The Company evaluates these advances from time to time and sets up a reserve against such advances.

J. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, which amends SFAS 133 for certain decisions made by the FASB Derivatives Implementation Group. In particular, SFAS 149: (1) clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative, (2) clarifies when a derivative contains a financing component, (3) amends the definition of an underlying instrument to conform it to language used in FASB Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others,” and (4) amends certain other existing pronouncements. This Statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging relationships design ated after June 30, 2003. In addition, most provisions of SFAS 149 are to be applied prospectively. Management does not expect the adoption of SFAS 149 to have a material impact on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity” (“SFAS 150”). SFAS 150 changes the accounting for certain financial instruments that under previous guidance issuers could account for as equity. It requires that those instruments be classified as liabilities in balance sheets. The guidance in SFAS 150 is generally effective for all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective on July 1, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 150 does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
K Advances to Models
The Company pays bills on behalf of models for the preparation of their professional modeling portfolios and for travel costs. These amounts have no specific repayment terms, but management expects repayment within one year.
L. Receivables
Accounts receivable are typically unsecured. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. It generally requires no collateral and maintains reserves for potential credit losses on customer accounts when necessary.
The Company establishes an allowance for uncollectible trade accounts receivable based on historical collection experience and management evaluation of collectibility of outstanding accounts receivable.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
M. Basic and Diluted Net Earnings per Share
Basic net earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) applicable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of shares that might be issued upon exercise of common stock options. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
N. Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income consists of net income and other gains and losses affecting shareholders’ equity that, under generally accepted accounting principles are excluded from net income in accordance with Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income.” The Company, however, does not have any components of comprehensive income (loss) as defined by SFAS No. 130 and therefore, for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, comprehensive income (loss) is equivalent to the Company’s reported net income (loss).
O. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based employee compensation plans using the intrinsic value method. As such, compensation expense is recorded on the date of grant if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. The compensation expense is recorded over the vesting period of the grant.
As allowed under SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation”, the Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its stock-based compensation plans and, accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the plans in the financial statements because no options were granted to employees during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

2. Income Taxes
Income tax expense has been recorded based on an estimated effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2004. The estimated effective tax rate has taken into account any change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets where the realization of various deferred tax assets is subject to uncertainty. Management believes that sufficient uncertainty exists regarding the future realization of deferred tax assets and, accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been provided against the gross deferred tax assets.
3. Financing Agreement
The Company had a secured asset-borrowing program with a financial institution to collateralize, with recourse, certain eligible trade receivables up to a maximum percentage of 70% of the net amounts of each receivable. As receivables collateralized to the financial institution are collected, the Company may transfer additional receivables up to the discretion of the lending institution. The Company retains the right to recall collateralized receivables under the program, and the receivables are subject to recourse. Therefore, the transaction does not qualify as a sale under the terms of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 125 (Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities). Included in the Balance Sheets as receivables at June 30, 2004, and December 31, 2003, are account balances totaling $157,071 and $213,40 6 of uncollected receivables collateralized to the financial institution.

C. Contingent Liability
On May 15, 2002, FIXN completed a transaction pursuant to a Settlement of Debts and Asset Purchase Agreement, dated March 29, 2002, with Starbrand, LLC, pursuant to which FIXN divested all of its operations and sold substantially all of its assets and certain specified liabilities to Starbrand, LLC, in exchange for cancellation of $450,000 of outstanding 4%, $1,500,000 convertible debentures. FIXN is contingently liable for the payment of the liabilities transferred aggregating approximately $200,000. No claim has been made regarding these liabilities as of June 30, 2004, and management believes that it is remote that any claim may arise, thus no reserve is deemed necessary.

In May, 2004, the Company executed an agreement with a group of investors whereby the Company issued $810,000 in convertible loan notes. The Company issued warrants convertible into 91,797,300 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.025 per share in conjunction with these notes.

Total funds received of $810,000 were allocated as follows: none to the convertible notes; $460,000 to the detachable note warrants; $230,500 to the beneficial conversion featu re; and $119,500 were debt issuance costs related to legal fees and commissions. The value allocated to the note warrants, the beneficial conversion feature, and the debt issuance costs are being amortized to interest expense over the term of these notes.

Under the terms of the agreement, the $1,500,000 principal amount of the 4% debentures was issued for cash of $500,000 and the surrender of the outstanding $1,000,000 of 0% Convertible Debentures described above. The entire issue of the $1,500,000 4% Convertible Debentures was due on August 7, 2001, with a 5% premium on principal, plus accrued interest. Effective May 15, 2002, FIXN was relieved of $450,000 of the outstanding principal and the premium of $75,000 as a result of the asset sale to Starbrand, LLC. The debentures are convertible into common stock commencing on the maturity date at a conversion price of the lesser of $.054 per share or an amount computed under a formula, base d on the discounted average of the lowest bid prices during a period preceding the conversion date.
The conversion of the 4% debentures into common shares is subject to the condition that, no debenture holder may own an aggregate number of shares, including conversion shares, which is greater than 9.9% of the then outstanding common stock. Other provisions of the agreement include default, merger and common stock sale restrictions on FIXN. The debenture holders may cause FIXN to redeem debentures, with interest and a 30% payment premium, from up to 50% of the net proceeds received under an equity line of credit type of agreement or other permitted financing. The equity line of credit agreement was a condition to the October 27, 2000, 4% Convertible Debenture and Warrants Purchase Agreement.
Interest on the 4% convertible debentures is payable semi-annually and is convertible into common stock at the investors' option. Due to the non-payment of interest in fiscal year 2000, the debenture holders had the right to consider the debentures as immediately due and payable.
In July 2002, FIXN issued an additional $100,000 of 4% convertible debentures. These debentures are due in July 2003 and are classified as current. The notes have a $5,000 premium due at maturity.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
General
Plan of Operation
Short-term Objectives:
Continue to expand revenue through organic growth of existing business lines;
Source and develop new talent in both male and female models and photographers
Seek additional financing so as to provide capital to rapidly growing components of the organization, such as the Talent Division.
Long-term Objectives:
Continue business expansion through acquisitions, merger or joint venture with business areas to provide economy of scale, incremental revenue.;
Acquire complementary product lines to provide a broader service offering for customers, expand services including modeling, talent and photographers careers and revenue sources.
We have no expected or planned sale of significant property or equipment.
As shown in the accompanying Financial Statements, WNMI has incurred recurring losses from operations, and as of June 30, 2004 the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $1,340,319, its total liabilities exceeded its total assets by $4,334,245, and for the three months ending June 30, 2004, net cash used in operations was ($712,219). These factors raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In addressing the going concern issue, WNMI has been able obtain additional financing through the issuance of debt which has been used to attract and add new models and clients. In addition, WNMI is doing the following in its effort to reach profitability and to develop the business:
Cut costs in areas that add the least value to WNMI.
Bring in new models, talent, photographer and new business lines
Developing existing model, talent and photographers to derive more income
We feel that sufficient working capital will be available from internal operations and from outside sources during the next twelve months thereby enabling us to meet our obligations and commitments as they become payable for the following reasons: 1) On April 23, 2004, WNMI entered into a funding where a net of $690,000 cash was received, 2) We have successfully negotiated with a financial institution a credit line, 3) $2,563,000 of our debt is with management and 3) we are seeking additional outside financing. WNMI has in the past successfully relied on private placements of common stock securities, bank debt and loans from private investors to sustain operations. If WNMI is unable to obtain additional funding in the future, it may be forced to curtail or terminate o perations.

The decrease is mainly attributable to a reduction in the company's business from Model fees and Commercial commissions which is a result of a tighter model management market due to poor economic conditions, which led to lower marketing and advertising spending during the period.
Gross profit for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004 was $141,395 as compared to $305,240 for the same period in 2003, or a decrease of $163,845 or 54%.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was ($638) and ($2,304) for the six month period ending June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. This change is due to a decrease in purchases of property and equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,187,005 and $(170,242) for the six month period
ending June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, reflecting a change of $1,357,247.

WNMI’s revenues have been insufficient to cover operating expenses. Therefore, WNMI has been dependent on private placements of its common stock and issuance of convertible notes in order to sustain operations. In addition, there can be no assurances that the proceeds from private or other capital will continue to be available, or that revenues will increase to meet WNMI’s cash needs, or that a sufficient amount of WNMI’s common stock or other securities can or will be sold or that any common stock purchase options/warrants will be exercised to fund the operating needs of WNMI.
Over the next twelve months an addition of $300,000 will be needed to sustain the business. Management is of the opinion that sufficient working capital will be obtained from operations and external financing to meet WNMI's liabilities and commitments as they become payable. WNMI has in the past relied on private placements of common stock securities, and loans from private investors to sustain operations. However, if WNMI is unable to obtain additional funding in the future, it may be forced to curtail or terminate operations.

In addition, the Company has instituted more efficient management techniques and continues to attract and add new Models, talent and adding the new line photographers Management believes these factors will contribute toward achieving profitability. The accompanying Financial Statements
do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a
going concern. In May 2004, the Company raised $810,000 in cash through the issuance of
convertible notes payable.
