been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions
to form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Plan
- ------ --------------------------------------------------------------------
of Operations
- -------------
(a) Plan of Operation
The Company has generated no revenues from its operations and has
been a development stage enterprise since inception.
In order to implement its plans for 2004 and 2005, the Company is
seeking approximately $2,000,000 in financing. The financing could be
in the form; of debt or equity The Company has not obtained any of
this financing and currently has no commitments for any of this
financing. If this financing is obtained, the Company has established
the following budgets as outlined below.
The Company requires approximately a $2 million cash investment
in order to carry out its business plan and to achieve the projected
results described below.
The Company currently has a distribution agreement for all Asian
countries, excluding China. China sales will come from the joint
venture in China with the Shangdon Weigao Group. Sales activity in all
other Asian countries is expected to begin in the first calendar
quarter of 2005
The company and Shangdon Weigao Group of Weihai own the joint
venture in China equally. The name of the joint venture company is:
Weihai Barrington Biological Engineering Co. Ltd. The partners have
funded the joint venture company. The joint venture company will
employ its own sales staff and will have access to markets that have
been developed by Weigao Group over the past twenty years.
The following projections are for a one-year period [following
completion of the Company's $2 million financing]
o Sales: $1.3 million to $2.5 million.
o Gross Profit: $ 0.52 million to $1 million based on 40%
margin.
o Operating Expenses: $0.4 million to $ 0.6million.
o Profit from the Joint Venture operation in China: $.02
million to $.1million).

(b) Liquidity and capital resources
Management believes that it will able to raise additional equity
capital to meet the Company's liquidity needs, due to the prospects
for success of the Company. However, the Company has no commitments
from potential equity investors and has never generated any revenues
from its products or operations.
(c) Comparison of 2004 and 2003 Second Quarter
Operating costs, excluding joint venture related costs, decreased
as the company curtailed operations due to cash constraints. Total
operating costs reduced from $345,662 in 2003 to $24,826 in 2004. The
costs consisted of: legal fees, travel costs and compensation for
contract staff of $12,275. During this period management has agreed to
work without compensation.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
- ------ ----------------------------------------------------------
None. The Company does not hold any material market risk sensitive
instruments.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
- ------ ------------------------
