Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation. The Company is in the development stage and, in October 1995, completed an initial public offering (the "Offering") pursuant to a Registration Statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 30, 1995 and sold 500,000 shares of its common stock, $.0001 par value, at a price of $.10 per share. The Offering was conducted directly by the Company without the use of a professional underwriter. The Company is a "blank check" company subject to Rule 419 of Regulation C which was organized to obtain funding from persons purchasing in the Offering in order to provide a vehicle to take advantage of business opportunities which management believes arise from time to time. Except for 10% of the deposited funds (10% of $50,000, or $5,000) which was released under Rule 419 upon completion of the Offering, the deposited funds and the securities to be issued to subscribers are remaining in escrow and may not be released until an acquisition meeting certain specified criteria has been made and a sufficient number of subscribers reconfirm their investment in accordance with the procedures set forth in Rule 419. The Company has entered into negotiations to acquire a business opportunity but no assurance can be given that an agreement will be signed or that the transaction will be completed. The Company had no revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The Company had a net loss of $(130) for the three months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to a net loss of $(236) for the three months ended March 31, 1995. In addition, at March 31, 1996, the Company had total assets of $47,317 (which amount includes $45,867 of deposited funds being held in escrow pursuant to Rule 419) and total liabilities of $4,544. There can be no assurance that an acquisition can be done which meets the requirements of Rule 419 of Regulation C under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Rule 419 was adopted to strengthen the regulation of securities offerings by "blank check" companies. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings. None. Item 2. Changes in Securities. None.
