Notes for Financial Statements
(1) The unaudited financial statements include the accounts of Emerald
Capital Investments, Inc., and include all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring items) which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September
30, 1998 and the results of operations for the nine months and three
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, cash flows for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 and cumulative amounts
since inception of the development stage through September 30, 1998.
The results of operations for the nine months and three months ended
September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the entire year.
(2) Income (loss) per common share is based on the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the period.

ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General
The Company currently has no operations. Prior to December 29, 1995, the
Company had been involved in the business of recycling used tires and designing,
manufacturing, and marketing shredding equipment. The Company's tire recycling
and shredding equipment operations were unsuccessful and the Company generated
significant losses during 1994 and 1995. During 1995, the Company funded its
operations with loans from a commercial bank from management and other
individuals. By November 1995, the Board of Directors had concluded that the
Company did not have the capital, or the ability to obtain capital necessary to
continue its current operations. The Company's Board of Directors initiated
efforts to sell the Company's WRTI and CTR operations. The Company was able to
interest one of its directors and several other individuals in purchasing WRTI
and CTR.
Effective December 29, 1995, the Company sold all of its shares of WRTI
and CTR for $30,000 and the payment and or assumption of liabilities. As a
result of such sale, the Company's total liabilities, on a consolidated basis,
decreased from $1,758,308 to $6,665.
On May 7, 1998, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
to acquire American Polymer Corporation, a Utah Corporation. The Merger was
subject to several conditions including the Company raising additional capital.
In November 1998, the Company and American Polymer Corporation agreed to
terminate the Merger Agreement due to the failure of the Company to raise
additional capital as set forth in the Merger Agreement. The Company is now
seeking other acquisitions and mergers.
Financial Condition
Total assets at September 30, 1998 were $701, all of which was cash. At
September 30, 1998, the Company had no liabilities. The Company intends to use
such cash to pay for various filing fees and professional fees relating to its
reporting obligations and to fund the costs which may arise from seeking new
business opportunities.
It is likely that the Company will be required to raise additional capital
in order to attract any potential acquisition partner but there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to raise any additional capital. It is
also likely that any future acquisition will be made through the issuance of
shares of the Company's common stock which will result in the dilution of the
percentage ownership of the current shareholders.
Results of Operations
The Company has generated no revenues since the sale of the WRTI/CTR
operations and assets. The Company will not generate any revenues, if ever,
until and unless it merges with an operating company or raises additional
capital for its own operations. There can be no assurance that either of such
events will happen.
8
The Company had a net loss of $6,572 for the nine months ended September
30, 1998 compared to $5,074 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The
Company had a net loss of $866 for the three months ended September 30, 1998
compared to $1,386 for the three months ended September 30, 1997.
Plan of Operation
Commencing in the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company's Plan of Operation
was essentially the plan to sell its WRTI and CTR operation. Effective December
29, 1995 these operations were sold. The Company's current plan of operation is
to acquire another operating company. It is likely that any acquisition will be
a "reverse merger" acquisition whereby the Company acquires a larger company by
issuing shares of the Company's common stock to the shareholders of the larger
company. Although the Company would be the surviving or parent company from a
corporate law standpoint, the shareholders of the larger company would be the
controlling shareholders of the Company and the larger company would be treated
as the survivor or parent company from an accounting point of view. It can be
expected that any company which may desire to be acquired by the Company will do
so as a method of potentially becoming a public company more quickly and less
expensively than if such company undertook its own public offering.
The Company has terminated its Merger Agreement with American Polymer
Corporation due to the failure of the Company to obtained additional capital as
required by the Merger Agreement. The Company will now look for additional
merger or acquisition candidates.
