Notes To Financial Statements
For the Period Ended March 31, 2003 (Unaudited)
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Organization and Business Operations
WPB Financiers, Ltd. (a development stage company) ("the Company") was
incorporated in the State of Delaware on June 3, 2002 to serve as a vehicle
to effect a merger, exchange of capital stock, asset acquisition or other
business combination with a domestic or foreign private business. At March 31,
2003, the Company had not yet commenced any formal business operations, and
all activity to date relates to the Company's formation and proposed fund
raising. The Company's fiscal year end is December 31.
The Company's ability to commence operations is contingent upon its ability to
identify a prospective target business.
B. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the
Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures in these
financial statements are adequate and not misleading.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements contain all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a
fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations
and cash flows. Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 are
not necessarily indicative of the results for any future period.
C. Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation
of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company was only recently
formed, has incurred losses since its inception and has not yet been successful
in establishing profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt
about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
In this regard, management is proposing to raise any necessary additional funds
to meet its ongoing expenses through shareholder loans or private placement of
its equity securities. There is no assurance that the Company will be
successful in raising this additional capital. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these
uncertainties.
D. Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly
liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less
to be cash equivalents.
E. Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the Financial Accounting Standards
Board of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes"
("Statement 109"). Under Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date. There were no current or deferred income tax expense or
benefits due to the Company not having any material operations for the period
ending March 31, 2003.
NOTE 2. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
A. Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock at
$.0001 par value, with such designations, voting and other rights and
preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.
As of March 31, 2003, no preferred stock has been issued.
B. Common Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock at
$0.0001 par value. On June 3, 2002, the Company issued 1,240,000 shares of
its common stock to its founder and then sole officer and director, Darian S.
Tenace, pursuant to Rule 506 for an aggregate consideration of $124 in
services.
On December 20, 2002, the Company entered into a Stock Subscription Agreement
with Brightpoint Capital Partners, LLC ("Brightpoint"), in which Brightpoint
received 7,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company in exchange for cash
consideration of $700 in a private placement transaction. Such transaction
resulted in a change in control of the Company.
On March 24, 2003, the Company's then majority stockholder and sole officer
and director sold 7,828,000 shares of the Company's common stock to Enviromat
Industries Co. Ltd. for $38,000. The purchase price was payable $25,000 in cash
at or prior to closing, and $10,000 through execution of a cognovit promissory
note. Such transaction resulted in a change in control of the Company.
C. Warrant and Options
There are no warrants or options outstanding to issue any additional shares of
common stock.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information
contained in the financial statements of the Company and the Notes thereto
appearing elsewhere herein.
Results of Operations - Inception (June 3, 2002) through March 31, 2003.
The Company is considered to be in the development stage as defined in
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7. There have been no
operations since inception.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
The Company has no cash as of March 31, 2003.
Plan of Operations
Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2003, there was a change of
control of the Company which was completed as the first step in the process of
acquisition of a business opportunity. Therefore, the Company's plan of
operations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2003, is to complete the
business acquisition transaction with EFM Industries Inc., a Nevada
corporation, and thereafter to conduct business operations through EFM
Industries Inc., as its wholly owned subsidiary.
STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This report contains various forward-looking statements that are based on the
Company's beliefs as well as assumptions made by and information currently
available to the Company. When used in this report, the words "believe,"
"expect," "anticipate," "estimate" and similar expressions are intended to
identify forward-looking statements. Such statements may include statements
regarding seeking business opportunities, payment of operating expenses, and
the like, and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions which
could cause actual results to differ materially from projections or estimates
contained herein. Factors which could cause actual results to differ
materially include, among others, unanticipated delays or difficulties in
location of a suitable business acquisition candidate, unanticipated or
unexpected costs and expenses, competition and changes in market conditions,
lack of adequate management personnel and the like. Should one or more of
these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions
prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially form those anticipated,
estimated or projected. The Company cautions again placing undue reliance on
forward-looking statements all of that speak only as of the date made.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures.
The Company maintains a system of controls and procedures designed to provide
reasonable assurance as to the reliability of the financial statements and
other disclosures included in this report, as well as to safeguard assets from
unauthorized use or disposition. Within 90 days prior to the filing of this
report, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer
have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures with the assistance and participation of
other members of management. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures are effective for gathering, analyzing and
disclosing the information the Company is required to disclose in the reports
it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 within the time periods
specified in the SEC's rules and forms. There have been no significant changes
in the Company's internal controls or in other factors which could
significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company
carried out its evaluation.
