NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY 31, 2001
1) Nature of Business and Organization
Nova International Films, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated
on November 27, 1984 in the State of Delaware. The Company was
formed for the purpose of financing and producing motion
pictures for distribution in the theatrical, home video and pay
and free television markets throughout the world.
a. Issuance of Common Stock
On January 2, 1986, the Company completed a public offering,
whereby ten million (10,000,000) units were sold at $.10 per
unit, each unit consisting of one (1) share of Common Stock,
$.00001 par value, and one (1) Redeemable Common Stock Purchase
Warrant. These warrants have now lapsed.
b. Disposition of Assets
On May 12, 1993 (the "Closing"), the stockholders of the
Company approved an Acquisition Agreement dated March 3, 1993
(the "Acquisition Agreement") by and between the Company and
Epic Productions, Inc. ("Epic"), pursuant to which the Company
sold, assigned, transferred and conveyed to Epic and Epic
acquired from the Company (i) all of the issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of each of Byzantine Fire, Inc. a
California corporation, Wings of the Apache, Inc., a
California corporation, and A/R Productions, Ltd., a California
corporation (collectively, the "Subsidiary Corporations"); (ii)
all rights to the completed films "Triumph of the Spirit",
"Firebirds" and "Why Me?", (sometimes collectively herein the
"Completed Films"); and (iii) the Company's rights related to
the film project "Carlito's Way" and Jean Claude Van Damme. In
exchange therefor, Epic assumed all debts and liabilities of
the Company with respect to the assets acquired, paid
the Company the sum of $50,000, acquired the Bank Loan from the
Bank as described in Note #4 "Debt" and modified the loan
arrangements thereafter plus other indebtedness due Epic from
the Company.
2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a. Financial Statement Presentation
In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 53, the Company has elected to present
an unclassified balance sheet.
b. Per Share Amounts

shares outstanding during the period.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
January 31, 2001
3) Short term loan
An officer of the Company made a short term loan to the Company
in order to allow the Company to meet certain working capital
needs. Such loan is without interest and payable on demand.
4) Debt
In connection with the financing of the film "Triumph of the
Spirit", the Company was unable to pay Credit Lyonnais Bank
Nederland N.V. (the "Bank") the note payable (the "Bank Loan")
incurred to finance such film at its original maturity date of
March 31, 1991. The Company was able to negotiate an extension
of the maturity date of this note until September 30, 1991, but
thereupon the Company became in default of its obligation.
Upon the Closing of the Acquisition Agreement, Epic acquired
the Bank Loan from the Bank and modified the payment terms of
the Bank Loan assigned to it and other indebtedness of the
Company to Epic. In October 1993, Epic assigned and
contributed to the capital of the Company all of such
indebtedness of the Company to Epic plus accrued and unpaid
interest. In addition, at the Closing, $3 million of
indebtedness (plus interest thereon) under the Bank Loan was
not acquired by Epic, pursuant to which the Bank,
Epic and the Company agreed that such portion of the Bank Loan
(The "Nonrecourse Obligations") be payable interest and then
principal only from operating receipts from "Triumph of the
Spirit" which was acquired by Epic pursuant to the Acquisition
Agreement.
As of November 30, 1995, Nova assigned to Epic and Epic assumed
the remaining $3 million Nonrecourse Obligations plus interest
thereon.
5) Liquidity and Capital Resources
At the current time, the Company's sole means to pay for its
overhead operations is its existing cash in the total amount of
$1,944. as of January 31, 2001. Accordingly, the Company has
significantly reduced its overhead. The Company has no current
business operations and is in the process of seeking a business
opportunity. As of the date of this report, the Company has no
agreement, understanding or arrangement to acquire or
participate in any specific business opportunity. No assurance
can be given that the Company will be able to consummate
any such arrangements or, if consummated, that such business
opportunity will be successful. Management has indicated that
for the foreseeable future it will cover those costs necessary
to retain the Company's corporate charter, file necessary tax
returns, report to the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
cover certain expenses in seeking business opportunities.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Financial Statements and Notes thereto and is qualified in its entirety
by the foregoing.
The Company had no revenues from operations for the three
months ended January 31, 2001 and for the three months ended January
31, 2000. During the three months ended January 31, 2001, the Company
had a net loss of $(803) as compared to a net loss of $(2,820) during
the three months ended January 31, 2000.
On January 31, 2001, the Company had a working capital deficit
and stockholders' deficit of $(11,980), $1,944 in cash, total assets
of $1,944 and total liabilities of $13,924. The working capital deficit
and stockholders' deficit is principally due to short term loans made
by the President of the Company in order to allow the Company to meet
certain working capital needs.
At the current time, the Company's sole means to pay for its
overhead operations is its existing cash in the total amount of $1,944
as of January 31, 2001. Accordingly, the Company has significantly
reduced its overhead. In connection therewith, the Company does not
pay any officer salaries and rent. Its costs primarily include only
those costs necessary to retain its corporate charter, file necessary
tax returns and report to the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
certain expenses in seeking business opportunities. Management has
indicated that for the foreseeable future it will cover those costs
necessary to retain the Company's corporate charter, file necessary tax
returns, report to the Securities and Exchange Commission, and cover
certain expenses in seeking business opportunities
In addition, as a result of the closing of the Acquisition
Agreement (see Notes to the Financial Statements included elsewhere
herein), the Company has no current business operations and is in the
process of seeking a business opportunity. No assurance can be given
that the Company will be able to consummate any such arrangements or,
if consummated, that such business opportunity will be successful.
