NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2004 Note 1. Basis of Presentation In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) have been made to the unaudited financial statements to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2004 and the results of the Company's operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Parent - M Corp, Great Falls, Montana owns approximately 95% of the outstanding shares of the Company. Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies For purposes of the statements of cash flows, cash equivalents include time deposits, certificates of deposit and money market accounts, all with original maturities of three months or less. Comprehensive income includes net income, as well as other changes in stockholder's equity that result from transactions and economic events other than those with stockholders. The Company's only significant element of other comprehensive income is unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. Basic earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted number of common shares outstanding for the period. Note 3. Contingencies The Board of Directors has approved the Company's participation in an attempt to purchase a savings and loan institution. The Company will participate in the purchase with its parent, M Corp. Should the purchase take place, the liquidity of the Company will be significantly affected. The Board of Directors has approved a merger between a newly formed company and Diversified Realty, Inc. in order to take the Company private and such merger is pending. Schedule 13e-3 and Schedule 13e-3/A have been filed electronically with the Securities Exchange Commission, and can be viewed at www.sec.com. Note 4.
