MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited Financial Statements and notes thereto included herein. In connection with, and because it desires to take advantage of, the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company cautions readers regarding certain forward looking statements in the following discussion and elsewhere in this report and in any other statement made by, or on the behalf of the Company, whether or not in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company's control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company. The Company disclaims any obligation to update forward looking statements. OVERVIEW We were incorporated on February 17, 1993, under the name "LBF Corporation" pursuant to the laws of the State of Nevada to engage in any lawful corporate purpose. In December 1997, we filed a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-SB, registering our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "34 Act"). Our intention at that time was to seek to acquire assets or shares of an entity actively engaged in business which generated revenues or provided a business opportunity, in exchange for our securities. In effect, this filing caused us to be a full "reporting company" under the 34 Act. Effective April 17, 1999, we acquired certain assets owned by Michael Levine, including a proposed electronic commerce web site and the right to certain business names, including "Shopshopshopping.com," "Retailhighway.com" and "Greatestmall on earth.com" (the "Assets"). We issued 2,500,000 shares of our common stock equal to ownership of approximately 33% of our then outstanding shares, in exchange for all of the Assets. In addition, our shareholders approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation changing our name to "Retail Highway.com, Inc." Our then management resigned their respective positions and were replaced by our current management. As a result of this acquisition, our principal business objective was changed to becoming a primary portal and transaction point for online extensions of "Bricks and Mortar" ("BAM") retail stores. As described hereinbelow, as well as in our Form 10-KSB for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2 2003, we have abandoned this business plan and are currently seeking to merge with or otherwise acquire another business, or otherwise proceed in accordance with the disclosure below. Results of Operations/Plan of Operations Comparison of Results of Operations for the nine month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 We generated no revenues during the nine month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 and it is not anticipated that we will be able to generate any revenues in the foreseeable future unless we engage in a business combination, as described herein. We had no costs of sales. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $25,914 during our nine month period ended March 31, 2004, compared to $32,034 during the comparable period in 2003, a decrease of $6,120 (19.1%) This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in our office rent. The expenses incurred during the nine month period ended March 31, 2004, arose primarily from professional fees relating to costs associated with our being a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as well as costs associated with possible acquisitions. As a result, we incurred a net loss of ($26,139) during the nine month period ended March 31, 2004 (less than $0.01 per share) as compared to our net loss of ($32,201) during the comparable period in 2003. Plan of Operation We intend to seek to acquire assets or shares of an entity actively engaged in business which generates revenues, in exchange for its securities. We have no particular acquisitions in mind but as of the date of this Report, we have entered into discussions regarding such a business combination. We have no full time employees. Our Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary has agreed to allocate a portion of his time to our business activities. He anticipates that our business plan can be implemented by his devoting minimal time per month to our business affairs and, consequently, conflicts of interest may arise with respect to the limited time commitment by such officer. General Business Plan Our purpose is to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire an interest in business opportunities presented to us by persons or firms who or which desire to seek the perceived advantages of an Exchange Act registered, trading corporation. We will not restrict our search to any specific business, industry, or geographical location and we may participate in a business venture of virtually any kind or nature. This discussion of the proposed business is purposefully general and is not meant to be restrictive of our virtually unlimited discretion to search for and enter into potential business opportunities. Management anticipates that we may be able to participate in only one potential business venture because we have nominal assets and limited financial resources. See "Financial Statements." This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk to our 3 shareholders because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another. We may seek a business opportunity with entities which have recently commenced operations, or which wish to utilize the public marketplace in order to raise additional capital in order to expand into new products or markets, to develop a new product or service, or for other corporate purposes. We may acquire assets and establish wholly owned subsidiaries in various businesses or acquire existing businesses as subsidiaries. We anticipate that the selection of a business opportunity in which to participate will be complex and extremely risky. Due to general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, management believes that there are numerous firms seeking the perceived benefits of a publicly registered corporation. Such perceived benefits may include facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be sought, providing liquidity for incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, providing liquidity (subject to restrictions of applicable statutes) for all shareholders and other factors. Potentially, available business opportunities may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex. We have, and will continue to have, a limited amount of capital with which to provide the owners of business opportunities with any significant cash or other assets. However, management believes we will be able to offer owners of acquisition candidates the opportunity to acquire a controlling ownership interest in a publicly registered, trading company without incurring the cost and time required to conduct an initial public offering. The owners of the business opportunities will, however, incur significant legal and accounting costs in connection with acquisition of a business opportunity, including the costs of preparing Form 8-K's, 10-K's or 10-KSB's, agreements and related reports and documents. The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "34 Act") specifically requires that any merger or acquisition candidate comply with all applicable reporting requirements, which include providing audited financial statements to be included within the numerous filings relevant to complying with the 34 Act. Nevertheless, our officers and directors have not conducted market research and are not aware of statistical data which would support the perceived benefits of a merger or acquisition transaction for the owners of a business opportunity. The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by, or under the supervision of, our officers and directors, none of whom is a professional business analyst. Management intends to concentrate on identifying preliminary prospective business opportunities which may be brought to their attention through present associations of our officers and directors, or by our shareholders. In analyzing prospective business opportunities, management will consider such matters as the available technical, financial and managerial resources; working capital and other financial requirements; history of operations, if any; prospects for the future; nature of present and expected competition; the quality and experience of management services which may be available and the depth of that management; the potential for further research, development, or exploration; specific risk factors not now foreseeable but which then may be anticipated to impact our proposed activities; the potential for growth or expansion; the potential for profit; the perceived public recognition of acceptance of products, services, or trades; name identification; and other relevant factors. Our officers and directors expect to meet personally with management and key personnel of the business 4 opportunity as part of their investigation. To the extent possible, we intend to utilize written reports and personal investigation to evaluate the above factors. We will not acquire or merge with any company for which audited financial statements cannot be obtained within a reasonable period of time after closing of the proposed transaction. Management, while not especially experienced in matters relating to our new business, shall rely upon their own efforts and, to a much lesser extent, the efforts of our shareholders, in accomplishing our business purposes. It is not anticipated that we will utilize any outside consultants or advisors to effectuate our business purposes described herein. However, if we do retain such an outside consultant or advisor, any cash fee earned by such party will need to be paid by the prospective merger/acquisition candidate, as we have no cash assets with which to pay such obligation. There are no present contracts or agreements with any outside consultants and none are anticipated in the future. We will not restrict our search for any specific kind of firms, but may acquire a venture which is in its preliminary or development stage, which is already in operation, or in essentially any stage of its corporate life. It is impossible to predict at this time the status of any business in which we may become engaged, in that such business may need to seek additional capital, may desire to have its shares publicly traded, or may seek other perceived advantages which we may offer. While we reviewed various potential merger or acquisition candidates during the nine month period ended March 31, 2004, no definitive agreement has been reached with any such party and we are continuing to explore various potential opportunities as of the date of this report. Acquisition of Opportunities In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition, we may become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, or licensing agreement with another corporation or entity. We may also acquire stock or assets of an existing business. On the consummation of a transaction, it is probable that our present management and shareholders will no longer be in control of our company. In addition, our directors may, as part of the terms of the acquisition transaction, resign and be replaced by new directors without a vote of our shareholders. It is anticipated that any securities issued in any such reorganization would be issued in reliance upon exemption from registration under applicable federal and state securities laws. In some circumstances, however, as a negotiated element of its transaction, we may agree to register all or a part of such securities immediately after the transaction is consummated or at specified times thereafter. If such registration occurs, of which there can be no assurance, it will be undertaken by the surviving entity after we have successfully consummated a merger or acquisition and we are no longer considered a "shell" company. Until such time as this occurs, we will not attempt to register any additional securities. The issuance of substantial additional securities and their potential sale into any trading market which may develop in our securities may have a depressive effect on the value of the our securities in the future, if such a market develops, of which there is no assurance. While the actual terms of a transaction to which we may be a party cannot be predicted, it may be expected that the parties to the business transaction will find it desirable to avoid the creation of a taxable event and thereby structure the acquisition in a so-called "tax-free" reorganization under 5 Sections 368(a)(1) or 351 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). In order to obtain tax-free treatment under the Code, it may be necessary for the owners of the acquired business to own 80% or more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. In such event, our shareholders would retain less than 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity, which would result in significant dilution in the equity of such shareholders. As part of our investigation, our officers and directors will meet personally with management and key personnel, may visit and inspect material facilities, obtain independent analysis of verification of certain information provided, check references of management and key personnel, and take other reasonable investigative measures, to the extent of our limited financial resources and management expertise. The manner in which we participate in an opportunity will depend on the nature of the opportunity, the respective needs and desires of us and other parties, the management of the opportunity and our relative negotiation strength and such other management. With respect to any merger or acquisition, negotiations with target company management is expected to focus on the percentage of stock which the target company shareholders would acquire in exchange for all of their shareholdings in the target company. Depending upon, among other things, the target company's assets and liabilities, our shareholders will in all likelihood hold a substantially lesser percentage ownership interest following any merger or acquisition. The percentage ownership may be subject to significant reduction in the event we acquire a target company with substantial assets. Any merger or acquisition effected by us can be expected to have a significant dilutive effect on the percentage of shares held by our then shareholders. We will participate in a business opportunity only after the negotiation and execution of appropriate written agreements. Although the terms of such agreements cannot be predicted, generally such agreements will require some specific representations and warranties by all of the parties thereto, will specify certain events of default, will detail the terms of closing and the conditions which must be satisfied by each of the parties prior to and after such closing, will outline the manner of bearing costs, including costs associated with our attorneys and accountants, will set forth remedies on default and will include miscellaneous other terms. As stated hereinabove, we will not acquire or merge with any entity which cannot provide independent audited financial statements within a reasonable period of time after closing of the proposed transaction. We are subject to all of the reporting requirements included in the 34 Act. Included in these requirements is the affirmative duty to file independent audited financial statements as part of our Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission upon consummation of a merger or acquisition, as well as our audited financial statements included in its annual report on Form 10-KSB. If such audited financial statements are not available at closing, or within time parameters necessary to insure our compliance with the requirements of the 34 Act, or if the audited financial statements provided do not conform to the representations made by the candidate to be acquired in the closing documents, the closing documents will provide that the proposed transaction will be voidable, at the discretion of our present management. If such transaction is voided, the agreement will also contain a provision providing for the acquisition entity to reimburse us for all costs associated with the proposed transaction. 6 Liquidity and Capital Resources At March 31, 2004, we had $2,115 in cash. Also at March 31, 2004, we had accounts payable in the amount of $53,159 and two (2) outstanding loans payable. One of these loans is in the principal amount of $31,592, which is due to Mr. Levine and arose out of expenses incurred by Mr. Levine on our behalf and includes $6,000 advanced by Mr. Levine during the three month period ended March 31, 2004. This loan is unsecured, due upon demand and does not accrue interest. Additionally, in September 2002, we executed a note in favor of Mr. Levine in the principal amount of $10,000, in order to allow us to pay our obligations to third parties. This note is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.0075 per share and is due on the earlier of (i) our successfully consummating a merger or acquisition; or (ii) one year from the date of the note, which date has subsequently been extended for an additional year as of the date of this report. Interest accrues at the rate of 3% per annum. While no assurances can be provided, we believe that the terms of this note are more favorable to us than would have been provided by a commercial lending institution, if we could have identified such a lender, which we could not. As of the date of this Report, our current cash position is not sufficient to meet our current obligations. Furthermore, as we continue operations we expect to incur additional costs and expenses related to the implementation of our business plan described above. To meet these obligations, it is anticipated that current management may need to make loans to us, or otherwise make other arrangements with these creditors. Because we are not currently required to pay salaries to any of our officers or directors, management believes that we will be able to continue operations through the foreseeable future. However, because of our working capital deficit, stockholders' deficit and history of operating losses, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. It is further anticipated that we will continue to incur expenses without corresponding revenues during the foreseeable future. Inflation Although management expects that our operations will be influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the nine month period ended March 31, 2004. ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Within 90 days prior to the date of filing of this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB, we carried out an evaluation, under supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, our CEO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to us required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. Subsequent to the date of that evaluation, there have been no changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls, nor were any corrective actions required with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses. 7 PART II.

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2004 (UNAUDITED) Note 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included in the accompanying unaudited financial statements. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes therto, included in the Company's Form 10-KSB as of and for the year ended June 30, 2003. Note 2. Going Concern The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since inception of $1,574,768, has a working capital (deficit) of $91,820 and stockholders' (deficit) of $89,901 at March 31, 2004. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to obtain capital or be party to an acquisition agreement. The Company is reliant on advances from related parties to maintain operations and is currently seeking acquisition candidates. However, the Company has no firm commitments for obtaining capital or effecting a merger. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Note 3. Earnings Per Share The Company calculates net income (loss) per share as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 128, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding. During the periods presented, common stock equivalents were not considered, as their effect would be anti-dilutive. 12 RETAIL HIGHWAY.COM, INC.
