NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(1) The accompanying financial statements are un-audited. The un-audited
financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10 QSB.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included with financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted, although the Registrant believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is
suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Registrant's annual
report for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2000 contained in the FORM 8 K/A
filed on November 15, 2000.
(2) In the opinion of management, the accompanying un-audited financial
statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only a normal and recurring
nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Registrant as
of October 31, 2000 and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim
period presented. Operating results for the three months ended October 31, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year
ending July 31, 2001.
(3) The Company's ability to commence full and expanding operations for
production and distribution of its product line will depend upon its ability to
identify and raise the capital it will require to achieve the goals and
objectives of its business venture plan.
(4) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
A. Preferred Stock: The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of
preferred stock at $0.001 par value with such designations, voting, other rights
and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors
and the Consent of the Shareholders. Currently there are authorized 200,000
shares of Series A Preferred of which 2,557 are outstanding; 200,000 shares of
Series B Preferred of which 4,653 are outstanding and 10,000 Series C Preferred
of which 200 have been issued and are outstanding.
B. Common Stock: The Company is authorized to issue 120,000,000 shares of common
stock of which 32,481,408 were outstanding on October 31, 2000. As of October
31, 2000 the 2,557 shares of Series A Preferred and the 4,653 shares of Series B
Preferred were convertible to common stock at the rate of 1,924.7 common for
each A and B Preferred Share. If converted they represent 13,877,087 common
shares. The Series A and B Preferred are subject to restrictive covenants that
allow for the remainder to become fully convertible as of October 15, 2001.
Under certain circumstances these restrictions can be modified and waived. The
200 Series C Preferred Shares can be converted to 200,000 common shares.
(5) CORRECTION OF AN ERROR
The accompanying financial statements for October 31, 2000 have been restated to
correct an error in the amount of revenues reported. The effect of the
restatement of revenues was to decrease the amount of revenues by $417,000, cost
of goods sold by $149,000 and promotion and advertising expense by $268,000.
This correction had no effect on net income or earnings per share as previously
reported for October 31, 2000.

requirements, governmental approvals, tariffs and trade barriers, risks
associated with competition and technological and product innovation by
competitors, dependence on proprietary formulas, general economic conditions and
conditions in the beverage industry, reliance on key management, limited
manufacturing production history with respect to the aseptic bottling system,
dependence on key suppliers, future capital needs and uncertainty of additional
financing, potential recalls and product liability, dilution, effects of
outstanding convertible debentures and preferred stock , limited public market,
liquidity, possible volatility of stock price, recently adopted new listing
standards for NASDAQ securities and environmental matters.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Financial Statements, related notes and other information included in this
quarterly report on FORM 10QSB.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Aqua Vie Beverage Corporation, a Delaware corporation, was incorporated
on July 30, 1998. For a more detailed description of corporate
structure, refer to the Company's Form 10-KSB. Throughout most of its
fiscal year ending July 31, 2000, Aqua Vie was a traditional
development stage company whose early efforts encompassed the
development and marketing of several flavors of bottled water. In the
quarter ended October 31, 2000, the Company has appeared to have
emerged from the development stage and actively commenced the sale of
its products.
At October 31, 2000, the Company's total assets of $562,000
approximated that of $585,000 at its July 31, 2000 year-end although
the composition of the assets changed during this interim period as
most of the year-end inventories were sold and converted to accounts
receivable. While total current assets at October 31, 2000 of $368,000
remained consistent with year-end current assets of $380,000, the
Company's current liabilities climbed from $1,768,000 at July 31 to
$2,479,000 at October 31 during this same three month period as the
Company funded larger operating losses with increased short-term debt.
During its first two years of existence (from inception to July 31,
2000), the Company accumulated a deficit of $3,654,000. In the
subsequent three months ended October 31, 2000, the Company's
accumulated deficit grew to $4,448,150 as the Company's marketing and
executive expenses burgeoned, creating a quarterly operating loss of
$776,000.
6
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's revenues of $192,256 for the quarter ended October 31,
2000 were greater than the $152,000 of revenues in its prior
fiscal year and a dramatic increase from the $13,000 of revenues in the
corresponding first quarter (10-31-99) of its prior fiscal year.
Because it has sustained recurring losses from operations, the Company
cannot assure that it will be able to fully carry out its plans as
budgeted without additional operating capital. At October 31, 2000, the
Company had negative working capital of $2,111,000. This amount
represents a further deterioration in liquidity and capital resources
from its negative working capital position of $1,388,000 at July 31,
2000 and represents increased deterioration from the Company's negative
working capital of $663,000 at July 31, 1999.
In the three months ended October 31, 2000, the Company funded a
portion of its operations from the sale of its common stock, which
raised $188,000 in cash. In addition, $288,000 of its quarterly
operations were financed by a combination of increasing trade payables
and accrued expenses, while an additional $202,000 was raised from
short-term notes and another $106,000 from short-term related party
loans. This recent mix of diversified funding sources contrasts with
the corresponding quarter of the prior year when the primary source of
funds was $280,000 originating with the Company's sale of its stock.
The Company recently paid off its only long-term debt, which was
$18,000 at July 31, 2000, and now stands free of long-term debt at
October 31, 2000.
The Company anticipates that its use of cash will be substantial for
the foreseeable future. In particular, management of the Company
expects substantial expenditures in connection with production of
inventory for the planned increase in sales, expansion of the Company's
marketing organization, and to a lesser degree, for quality assurance
and production and distribution management. The Company does not expect
to incur major capital expenditures in the next year. Aqua Vie's
management expects that funding for operating expenditures will be
available from the issuance of equity and/or debt securities.
7
The availability of sufficient future funds for Aqua Vie will depend to
a significant extent on the market acceptance of the Company's primary
product line. Accordingly, the Company may be required to issue
additional convertible debentures and/or equity securities to finance
such working capital requirements. There can be no assurance whether or
not such financing will be available on satisfactory terms.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Aqua Vie commenced operations in 1998 and has only a limited history of
operations which to date have not been profitable. Its operations are
subject to the risks and competition inherent in the establishment of a
relatively new business enterprise.
Aqua Vie is currently operating at a loss. While the Company's first
quarter revenues of $192,256 were slightly larger than the revenues of
the prior fiscal year ($152,000 for FYE 7-31-00), sales to date have
not been sufficient to cover the costs of operations. The Company's
ability to develop increasing revenues and profitable net income is
dependent upon the effectiveness of its marketing efforts in generating
sales of its line of flavored spring water products.
For the three months ended October 31, 2000, the Company's sales
produced gross profit of $54,857, which compares favorably with the
negative gross profit of $80,000 for the prior fiscal year (7-31-00)
when the Company's cost of sales exceeded the related revenues.
Operating expenses were $831,331 for the three months ended October 31,
2000 and were only $383,000 for the same quarterly period of the prior
year. The year-to-year change principally reflects an increase in
8
marketing expenses of $457,687, which is primarily from slotting fees
(one time, non-recurring fees charged by large chain stores for shelf
space), and which directly correlates with an increase in marketing
expenses. During this same year-to-year time frame, the increase in
operating expenses to a lesser extent reflects heightened expenditures
for general and administrative expenses which were substantially offset
by reduced expenses for professional fees.
The Company's net loss of $794,000 for the three months ended October
31, 2000 resulted in a net loss per share of $0.02 for the quarter.
This contrasts with a net loss of $409,000 for the three months ended
October 31, 1999, which also posted a per share loss of $0.02.
PART II - - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no legal proceedings against the Company and the Company is unaware of
any such meaningful proceedings contemplated against it. The Company anticipates
that in the future it will have conflicts as regards certain Accounts Payable
for services invoiced but not adequately performed and for the use of selected
names for products and product lines in selected market places.
