PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. Financial Statements
The unaudited financial statements for the quarter year ended August 31, 1999
follow.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
- -----------------------
The Company produces consolidated information and data relating to
brewpubs and microbreweries located in the area generally described as the Rocky
Mountain area, comprised of the states of Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado,
Arizona and New Mexico, and the various beers which are brewed by these
establishments.
Information and data about brewpubs and microbreweries are collected
and assembled in part from public state and federal data banks relating to
liquor and restaurant licensing. In addition, the Company acquires information
and retail documentation from various trade associations and organizations. This
information is compiled, catalogued and marketed in several ways including
printed brochures, pamphlets, promotional items, and through internet sites.
This acquisition and assemblage of information and data does not require a
material amount of resources of the Company as the information is available at
no charge from a number of industry sources.
In the company's target sales area, there are approximately 145
microbrewers and brewpubs in the State of Colorado with the largest grouping in
metropolitan Denver numbering 54. The next largest grouping is north of Denver
encompassing Boulder and Ft. Collins, each being college towns and numbering in
total 31. There are approximately 14 of such establishments in Arizona, 14 in
Montana, 3 in Wyoming, 11 in Utah, and 13 in New Mexico. The exact number of
establishments changes frequently as some organizations founder and close,
others consolidate and merge, while other new ones emerge from time to time. The
Company sees this fluctuating number of microbrewers and brewpubs as an
advantage to its business as the documentation of these organizations and the
products they produce will, of necessity, need to be updated monthly or
quarterly.
The Company does not intend to become a gathering or source depository
for industry data, but will report such data to media and promotional
organizations. The primary thrust of the Company is the coordinate a listing of
microbrews and brewpubs for release to the general public as an encouragement to
patronize these establishments and products. To facilitate this publishing
effort, the Company will rely on advertising revenue for space sales in printed
and internet media. The printed materials will be made available to advertisers
for free handouts at various public events, gatherings, concerts, etc.
Competition from other companies which may or may not be engaged in the
same or similar business is difficult to ascertain at the present time. General
circulation newspapers publish local restaurant and bar information from time to
time in restaurant and entertainment guides, but the Company has determined that
these listings are infrequent and often times obsolete after several months.
Some data are disbursed by industry associations but this information is usually
of a technical nature and of small use to retail customers of microbrewery
products and brewpubs. The Company believes it can compete successfully as it
has determined that although the information and data are available from many
scattered sources in numerous forms, no company to the Company's knowledge has
yet compiled such information in an organized and useful manner with the thrust
to the retail customer and beer affectionados.
Management believes that the Company's minimal level of business
operations currently will be sufficient to sustain its operations. Management is
prepared, however, to seek additional equity and/or debt financing, the
availability of which could not be assured, in order to expand and increase the
level of the Company's operations. This capital, if available, would be utilized
for the immediate, up-front costs of employing additional staff and sales
personnel. The Company has been operating only a short period of time and is
still in the process of developing techniques and sales methods appropriate to
its business plan. At the present time, management is unable to predict the
number of additional employees which may be needed in the future.
Financial Condition, Capital Resources and Liquidity
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
At August 31, 1999, the Company had cash assets totaling $343.00 and
$2,100.00 in liabilities. Since the Company's inception, it has received a total
of $2,500 in revenues attributable to the sale of printed circulars of
microbrewery listings.
The unaudited financial statement for the quarter-year ended August,
1999, indicates the Company's small amount working capital and its lack of
liquidity. Management believes that the Company must increase its sales efforts
Year 2000 Issues. The publication business of the Company may be
impacted to an unknown degree in the sales and marketing of its products and
services, but only to the extent of its own internal word processing and billing
procedures. The Company is unable at this date to make any reasonable estimate
of difficulties which may be encountered in the future due to the impact of
computer technology which may be unable to accommodate the automatic use of the
year 2000 in numbered use.
