FORM 10-K
PART 1
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
LBO Capital Corp. (the "Registrant") was organized under the laws of the State
of Colorado on October 8, 1987. The Registrant was formed based on the belief of
its management that there are business opportunities that, for one or more
reasons, are available for acquisition by the Registrant.
On March 15, 1988, the Registrant completed a public offering of 3,000,000
Units, each Unit consisting of one share of its common stock, one Callable Class
A Warrant, one Callable Class B Warrant and one Callable Class C Warrant. The
Warrants are detachable from the Units and may be traded separately in the
over-the-counter market. Each Class A Warrant entitles the holder thereof to
purchase at a price of $0.50, one share of Common Stock at any time until
February 26, 1989. Each Class B Warrant entitled the holder thereof to purchase
at a price of $0.75 one share of Common Stock at any time until August 26, 1989.
Each Class C Warrant entitled the holder thereof to purchase at a price of
$1.00, one share of Common Stock at any time until February 26, 1990. The
expiration dates of these warrants were subsequently extended by the Board of
Directors to expire on various dates, the latest being July 25, 1999. A Form 8-K
was filed on July 20, 1998 reporting this extension. The Registrant received net
proceeds of approximately $474,300 after payment of all costs of the offering.
Since its inception, the Registrant has directed its activities toward
evaluating potential business opportunities with the goal of acquiring and
continuing one or more business opportunities. The Registrant may acquire an
existing business which may be a corporation, partnership or sole
proprietorship. One form which such a business combination might take would be
an exchange of the Registrant's stock for stock of the acquired business.
However, the Registrant may exchange its common stock to acquire the assets of
this entity, or may purchase a percentage of the entity outright.
The Registrant has evaluated and attempted to acquire a number of entities to
date.
ACQUISITION OF ASSETS
- ---------------------
Ajay Sports, Inc.
- -----------------
On April 3, 1989 LBO acquired an aggregate of 1,880,000 shares of the restricted
common stock of Ajay Sports, Inc. ("Ajay") for a total cash purchase price of
$182,000.
In 1991, the Registrant pledged 400,000 shares of Ajay to a bank as collateral
for $300,000 in loans to Hendricks Manufacturing Company. On July 1, 1991, this
bank declared the loan in default and foreclosed on the shares.
On August 13, 1998, Ajay announced that its board of directors had authorized
the implementation of a 1-for-6 reverse split of the company's common stock,
effective with the commencement of trading on August 14, 1998. The reverse split
was approved by the stockholders of Ajay at the company's annual meeting on May
29, 1998.
Following the reverse split, holders of Ajay's common stock received one new
share of $.01 par value common stock for every six shares of common stock
currently held. Therefore, the number of Ajay shares held by the Company is
246,667. The reverse split also affected the number and exercise price of the
Company's warrants, such that the Company now holds 33,333 warrants entitling it
to purchase one share of Ajay's common stock at $1.08 per share.
The 246,667 common stock and 33,333 warrants owned by the Registrant represented
6.7% of the total shares of Ajay common stock outstanding as of December 31,
1998. The decrease is the result of new shares issued.
Ajay's Common Stock ("AJAY") and Units ("AJAYU") are trading on the Nasdaq Small
Cap and the Warrants ("AJAYW") have been traded over-the-counter since 1989 and
are reported by the National Quotation Service. The following table sets forth
the range of high and low trade prices for the common stock:
HI LOW
------ ------
1998
----
First Quarter $ 1.50 $ .78
Second Quarter $ 2.28 $ .78
Third Quarter $ 3.78 $ .75
Fourth Quarter $ 1.03 $ .34
On June 10, 1993, Thomas W. Itin, President and Chairman of the Board of
Directors of the Registrant, was elected to the positions of Chairman of the
Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Ajay Sports, Inc. It is felt
that the direct intervention by the Registrant's management into the operations
of Ajay would have a positive effect on the Ajay earnings and the value of the
Ajay stock held by the Registrant.
Business Ajay Sports, Inc., through its operating subsidiaries Ajay Leisure
Products, Inc., Palm Springs Golf and Leisure Life, Inc., is a leading
manufacturer and distributor of golf bags, clubs, carts, accessories and casual
living furniture throughout the United States.
Enercorp, Inc.
- -------------
On November 21, 1994, the Registrant bought 2,667 shares of Enercorp, Inc. for
$8,702. During 1996, the Registrant bought 12,674 additional shares of Enercorp,
Inc. for $39,694.
Enercorp, Inc. is a business development company under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended.
Competition
- -----------
The Registrant expects to encounter substantial competition in its efforts to
locate businesses for acquisition. The primary competition for desirable
business acquisitions is expected to come from other small companies organized
and funded for purposes similar to the Registrant, small venture capital
partnerships and corporations, small business investment companies and wealthy
individuals. Should the Registrant elect to engage in a leveraged buyout
acquisition, competition may also be anticipated from investment bankers. Many
of these entities have significantly greater experience, resources and
managerial capabilities than the Registrant and are therefore in a better
position than the Registrant to obtain access to businesses.
Employees
- ---------
As of December 31, 1998, the Registrant had no employees.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Registrant currently uses office space provided by Acrodyne Corporation, a
company whose Chairman and President is also Chairman and President of the
Registrant. The space is used for purposes of administration and development.

for the direct operating expenses. The Registrant believes its current
facilities are sufficient for its present business activity.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Registrant is not a present party to any material pending legal proceedings
and no such proceedings were known as of the filing date.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
No matter was submitted to a vote of the Registrant's shareholders during the

OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Working capital at December 31, 1998 was decreased by $38,360 from the period
ended December 31, 1997. This was mainly caused by a net loss of $59,454 and an
increase of $21,094 in the market value of securities available for sale.
On December 2, 1996, the Registrat had a change in its borrowing arrangements.
The Registrant borrowed $325,790 from Dearborn Wheels, Inc. to repay a note

majority by the Registrant's President's spouse.
Year 2000 Compliance

a material impact on earnings. The Company has initiated replacement of the

to be year 2000 compliant. Installation of these updates is anticipated to be
completed prior to June 30, 1999. All other programs subject to year 2000
concerns will be evaluated utilizing internal and external resources to

LBO CAPITAL CORP.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996
On August 13, 1998, Ajay announced that its board of directors had
authorized the implementation of a 1-for-6 reverse split of the
company's common stock, effective with the commencement of trading on
August 14, 1998. The stockholders of Ajay at the company's annual
meeting on May 29, 1998 approved the reverse split.
Following the reverse split, holders of Ajay's common stock received
one new share of $.01 par value common stock for every six shares of
common stock currently held. Therefore, the number of Ajay shares held
by the Company is 246,667. The reverse split also affected the number
and exercise price of the Company's warrants, such that the Company now
holds 33,333 warrants entitling it to purchase one share of Ajay's
common stock at $1.08 per share. These warrants expire June 13, 1999.
All of the Ajay shares are pledged as security for a note payable (see
note 4).
The stock of Ajay is traded over-the-counter and is reported by the
National Quotation Service. The following table sets forth the range of
high and low trade prices given quarterly by NASDAQ.

Note 8. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Note 9: Year 2000 Compliance
The Company does not anticipate the year 2000 compliance requirements
will have a material impact on earnings. The Company has initiated
replacement of the Company's most significant computer programs with
new updates that are warranted to be year 2000 compliant. Installation
of these updates is anticipated to be completed prior to June 30, 1999.
All other programs subject to year 2000 concerns will be evaluated
utilizing internal and external resources to reprogram, replace or test
each of them.
