The Company is required to remit on a weekly basis the total collections from the installment contracts in the acquired loan portfolio reduced by the amount necessary to fund up to $15,000 per month of actual expenses incurred by the Company to effect such collections (“net proceeds”). The remittances are applied first to interest owed, then to the principal balance due, until paid in full. Thereafter, the Company is required to remit 25% of the net proceeds to be applied to the commitment and facility fees until paid in full. In the event the net proceeds referred to above are insufficient to repay the special purpose loan, including accrued interest, Oak Rock Financial, LLC has the option of combining the unpaid balance with the amount outstanding under the Company’s line of credit balance.
All of the funds are secured by all of the assets of the Company and a personal validity guarantee by the Company’s president.

| | |
NOTE 5 – ADVANCES FROM RELATED PARTY
Advances from related party of $264,941 at December 31, 2003, represent unsecured, non-interest bearing funds advanced to the Company by Gateway Credit Holdings, Inc. (“Gateway”), a company with a common officer and shareholder, to fund working capital operations, as necessary.
NOTE 6 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred recurring net losses and has a significant accumulated deficit, resulting in a net stockholders’ deficiency. Continuation of the Company is dependent upon raising additional capital and ultimately, achieving net profits and positive cash flow from operations.
To meet these objectives, management is actively seeking additional capital and potential merger candidates, however, the ultimate success of these efforts are unknown. During the 2003 calendar year the Company raised $350,000 pursuant to a private placement of unsecured convertible promissory notes. In connection with this offering, the Company paid the placement agent $52,500, which will be amortized into expense over the period the notes are outstanding. The notes have an interest rate of 9.25% and all or a portion of the unpaid principal balance is convertible into common stock at $0.005 per share, which management estimates is the current market value of the shares. The Company also received advances of approximately $26,000 from affiliated entities, which were repaid from proceeds of the note offering. The Company also negotiated a $2,000,000 line of credit with a finance company. The terms of this line of credit are interest at the greater of 11% or 7% over prime, expiring on March 31, 2004 (renewable). Advances under the line are subject to 80% of the Company’s eligible receivables. Additionally, the Company negotiated a special purpose loan with the same finance company for the purchase of a loan portfolio in the amount of $2,237,687, bearing interest at 12% per annum, including a $150,000 commitment fee and a $150,000 facility fee. The funds are secured by all of the assets of the Company and a personal validity guarantee by the Company’s president.
To assist in funding its working capital operations, the Company received $264,941 in the form of an unsecured, non-interest bearing loan from Gateway, a related party. The Company estimates that it can satisfy its cash requirements in the next twelve (12) months through revenues from installment contracts, its bank line-of-credit, and the proceeds from the prior offering of unsecured notes to accredited investors.
Should the Company be unable to successfully accomplish the above objectives, it will not be able to continue operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments should the Company be unable to continue operations.
NOTE 7– COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
License fee– The Company has entered into an informal license agreement with Gateway, a company with a common officer and shareholder, to pay Gateway a fee of $150 per funded receivable contract for use of Gateway’s computer systems and software in qualifying prospects. This license agreement is subject to change based on the execution of a formal agreement between the companies.
Operating lease– The Company leases office space located at 2755 Campus Drive, San Mateo, CA, under a noncancelable office lease agreement commencing July 1, 2003 through July 31, 2005. Future minimum rental commitments under noncancelable leases for the fiscal years ended June 30 are as follows: (2004: $23,290; 2005: $24,017)
Contingencies– As a consumer finance company, the Company is subject to various consumer claims and litigation seeking damages and statutory penalties, based upon, among other things, usury, disclosure inaccuracies, wrongful repossession, violations of bankruptcy stay provisions, certificate of title disputes, fraud, breach of contract and discriminatory treatment of credit applicants. Some litigation against the Company could take the form of class action complaints by consumers. The Company believes that it has taken prudent steps to address the litigation risks associated with its business activities.
In the opinion of management, the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations. However, the Company cannot provide assurance that damages that result in a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations will not be imposed in these matters. The Company accounts for contingent liabilities when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated.
Debt– See Notes 3, 4 and 5 above for details.
NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Proxy Statement– The Company filed a Preliminary Proxy Statement on January 8, 2004, for the purpose of approving the following matters: (i) elect three directors to hold office until the next annual meeting, (ii) approve the 2004 Stock Option Plan, (iii) ratify its independent auditors for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004, (iv) approve a 100:1 reverse stock split, (v) amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation authorizing up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock; and (vi) amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to change the Company’s name to “Auto Underwriters of America, Inc.”

Overview
Advanced Cellular Technology, Inc. is a publicly held company that was previously engaged in the business of developing, assembling, marketing and selling cellular mobile telephones and peripheral products. For all practical purposes, the Company ceased operations following December 31, 1990 due to extensive competition in the wireless communication industry and lack of capital to fund continued operations. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, the Company reorganized and instituted new management headed by the Company’s original founder, Dean Antonis. The Company now operates as a non-prime, automobile finance company using advanced software, including the internet, to engage in the purchasing and servicing of non-prime installment sales contracts (“Installment Contracts”) originated by automobile dealers in the sale of new and used automobiles. The Company acquires directly or through intermediaries Installment Contracts originated by automobile dealers in connection with their sale of new and used automobiles, vans, SUVs and light duty trucks to borrowers with limited credit histories or past credit problems (“Non-prime Consumers”). To achieve an acceptable rate of return and provide adequate protection from excessive credit risks, Installment Contracts are purchased from dealers at a discount to the remaining principal balance.
In connection with its new business focus, the Company is seeking additional financing from public and private sources. To facilitate this financing, the Company believes it is essential to regain its public status and obtain a listing on a recognized trading exchange. Accordingly it has filed annual, quarterly and other reports as required by the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, for the fiscal years June 30, 1990 to the present. In addition, the Company will hold an annual meeting of shareholders to approve the election of directors, adopt a stock option plan, authorize a name change consistent with its new business focus, authorize a series of preferred stock and effectuate a reverse stock split.
Plan Of Operation
The Company’s goal is to become a leading lender engaged in the purchasing and servicing of Non-prime Consumer Installment Contracts. To help the Company accomplish this goal, it has executed a non-binding letter of intent with Gateway Credit Holdings, Inc. (“Gateway”), a related party also engaged in the non-prime automobile finance industry. Gateway has developed proprietary software, called AutoUnderwriter.com, that allows an automobile dealer or borrower to input various fields of information into an online financing application, conducts the credit screening process, and provides an answer to the applicant within thirty seconds of the application’s submittal. The non-binding letter of intent provides for the Company to purchase Gateway’s software applications and existing loan portfolio in exchange for a promissory note, which will be convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock. It is contemplated that the note will bear interest at 9.25% and that the conversion ratio will be $0.30 per share of Common Stock. If the note is converted, it is estimated that the Company may issue to Gateway shares of Common Stock representing between 16% and 32% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. The Company values the software at $375,000 and the loan portfolio at $1,010,000. Prior to the consummation of a definitive agreement with Gateway, the Company is using AutoUnderwriter.com and paying Gateway a fee of $150 per funded contract pursuant to an informal license agreement. Shareholder approval from the Company’s shareholders and Gateway’s shareholders may be required as a condition to consummating this transaction.
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred recurring net losses and has a significant accumulated deficit, resulting in a net stockholders’ deficiency. Continuation of the Company is dependent upon raising additional capital and ultimately, achieving net profits and positive cash flow from operations.
To meet these objectives, management is actively seeking additional capital and potential merger candidates, however, the ultimate success of these efforts are unknown. The Company raised $350,000 pursuant to a private placement of unsecured convertible promissory notes in January and August 2003. In connection with this offering, the Company paid the placement agent $52,500, which will be amortized into expense over the period the notes are outstanding. The notes have an interest rate of 9.25% and are convertible into common stock at $0.005 per share, which management estimates is the current market value of the shares. As of December 2003, four noteholders elected to convert their notes into shares of the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the notes. The Company issued 27,000,000 shares of Common Stock, in the aggregate, to these noteholders pursuant to the conversion terms.
The Company has negotiated a $2,000,000 line of credit with Oak Rock Financial, LLC. The line of credit bears interest at 11.25% at December 31, 2003 and expires on March 31, 2004 (renewable). Advances under the line are subject to 80% of the Company’s eligible receivables. At December 31, 2003 the line of credit balance outstanding was $1,096,076 and the Company had available $903,924 for future use. The Company also obtained a special purpose loan from Oak Rock Financial, LLC used to acquire a loan portfolio in the amount of $2,237,687, bearing interest at 12% per annum, a $150,000 commitment fee and a $150,000 facility fee. The Company is required to remit on a weekly basis the total collections from the installment contracts in the acquired loan portfolio reduced by the amount necessary to fund up to $15,000 per month of actual expenses incurred by the Company to effect such collections (“net proceeds”). The remittances are applied first to interest owed, then to the principal balance due, until paid in full. Thereafter, the Company is required to remit 25% of the net proceeds to be applied to the commitment and facility fees until paid in full. In the event the net proceeds referred to above are insufficient to repay the special purpose loan, including accrued interest, Oak Rock Financial, LLC has the option of combining the unpaid balance with the amount outstanding under the Company’s line of credit balance.
The line of credit and the special purpose loan described above are secured by all of the assets of the Company and a personal validity guarantee by the Company’s president.
Finance receivables represent installment loans for the purchase of automobiles, granted to high credit risk individuals. The receivables are collateralized by vehicle titles and the Company has the right to repossess the vehicle in the event the consumer defaults on the payment terms of the contract. The installment loans are typically granted for a period of thirty-six (36) to forty-eight (48) months at rates higher than those obtained in normal market conditions. As of December 31, 2003, finance receivables, after taking account of loan losses and nonaccretable acquisition fees, were $3,612,809.
To assist in funding its working capital operations, the Company received $264,941 in the form of an unsecured, non-interest bearing loan from Gateway, a related party. The Company estimates that it can satisfy its cash requirements in the next twelve (12) months, through revenues from installment contracts, its bank line of credit, and the proceeds from the prior offering of unsecured notes to accredited investors.
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. The Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 under supervision and with the participation of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as of December 31, 2003. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting him to material information required to be included in the Company’s periodic Securities and Exchange Commission filings. No significant changes were made to the Company’s internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. The design of any future system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions regardless of how remote.

ITEM 2. | CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS. |
| In January and August 2003, the Company offered and sold 9.25% unsecured convertible promissory notes pursuant to a private placement memorandum dated November 20, 2002, an amendment dated January 14, 2003 and a supplement dated May 30, 2003. The Company sold a total of $350,000 worth of notes to seventeen (17) accredited investors (four (4) investors purchased notes pursuant to the January 2003 closing and thirteen (13) investors purchased notes pursuant to the August 2003 closing). The notes were offered on a “best efforts” basis on behalf of the Company by Brookstreet Securities Corporation, a NASD licensed broker-dealer. Brookstreet received a sales commission of ten percent (10%) and a non-accountable expense allowance of five percent (5%). The offering was made in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation D and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. No general or public solicitation or advertising was employed in the offering. The notes issued pursuant to the January closing matured on November 1, 2003 and the notes issued pursuant to the August closing mature on May 1, 2004. The notes bear interest at 9.25% per annum from the date of issuance, payable semi-annually to the persons in whose names such notes are issued. At any time prior to maturity, any noteholder has the option to convert all or part of the unpaid principal balance due on the note into that number of shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to all or such part of the unpaid principal balance of the note divided by half a cent ($0.005) per share of Common Stock, any such fractional shares to be paid in cash. Interest due on the notes is not convertible into Common Stock of the Company.
|
| |
| Upon maturity of $135,000 of the Notes in November 2003 that were held by four investors, the investors elected to convert their Notes into shares of the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to the conversion terms set forth in the Notes. As a result, the Company issued a total of 27,000,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the conversion in December 2003. The conversion and issuance of Common Stock was made in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Regulation D and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. |
