NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company
without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include
only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows at March 31, 2002 and March 31,
2001 and for all periods presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 2001
audited financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended
March 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the
full year.
NOTE 2 - NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business - Kubla Khan, Inc. was incorporated on March 28,
2000 in the state of Utah. The Company began conducting operations on
May 4, 2001 and prior to that incurred only expenses for travel and
entertainment for the review of various business opportunities and marketing
strategies.
Intangibles - Organizational costs consisting of legal fees of $1000
have been expensed in accordance with the AICPA's Statement of Position (SOP)
98-5 which requires that costs incurred in the organization of a new entity be
expensed rather than amortized over a period of years.
Income Taxes - The Company has no deferred tax assets or liabilities.
A tax loss carryforward of $40,881 has occurred and is available for
carryforward to offset future profits for the next 20 years. No tax benefit
for the loss carryforward has been established due to the Company's lack of
operating history and it's ability to demonstrate that it can realize a profit
from future operations.
Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amount os revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from those
estimates.
Per Share Information - Per share information has been computed using
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS - ADVANCES FROM OFFICER/STOCKHOLDER AND
RENTAL OF PERSONAL RESIDENCY
Prior to May 4, 2001 the President of the company paid all company
travel
6
and entertainment costs which was reimbursed by the company without interest.
Since inception to May 4, 2001, the Company's president provided 190.7 hours
of service valued at $2,860 capital contribution) to the formation and initial
marketing efforts of the Company; he also provided the office facilities for
the use of the Company valued at $1,083 from inception through April 30, 2001.
Both the services and facilities use have been reflected as a capital
contribution by the president as he will not receive reimbursement for these
services and expenses. The Company now pays $500 per month for the space.
The Company began paying rent and salaries effective May 1, 2001.
NOTE 4 - COMMON STOCK/PREPAID LEGAL FEES/DEFERRED OFFERING COSTS

quarter of 2000, an additional $1,350 in offering costs were recorded as
deferred offering costs; during the quarter ended March 31, 2001, an
additional $1,933 in deferred offering costs were recorded by the Company.
During the second quarter $1,234 in offering costs were incurred. All

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This periodic report contains certain forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with
respect to the financial condition , results of operations, business
strategies, operating efficiencies or synergies, competitive positions, growth
opportunities for existing products, and plans and objectives of management.
Statements in this periodic report that are not historical facts are hereby
identified as "forward-looking statements" for the purpose of the safe harbor
provided by Section 21E of the Exchange Act and Section 27A of the Securities
Act.
General
We were incorporated under the laws of the state of Utah on March 28,
2000, as Kubla Khan, Inc., for the purpose of engaging in the business of the
sale of "distressed" merchandise (closeouts, factory overruns and retail
overstocks) primarily to retailers. Upon completion of our public stock
offering on May 4, 2001, we commenced acquiring closeout merchandise and
selling it to retailers or individuals. During our third quarter 2001, we
began realizing minimal revenues. Management continues to investigate
potential sources of revenues and merchandise.
Financial Condition
Since inception the we have operated at a loss with a loss of $6,013 in
our first quarter of 2002. Up through our second quarter of 2001, our losses
were a result of expenses associated with finding product sources and retail
clients, rent and service expenses, as well as professional fees. During our
third quarter of 2001, we began incurring expenses associated with purchase of
inventory as a result of commencement of operations. We have realized only
minimal revenues and have conducted limited operations since our inception; we
are therefore considered a development stage company.
We had $37,256 in assets at March 31, 2002: $23,393 in cash (the balance
of the proceeds from our offering which closed on May 4, 2001 with maximum
offering proceeds of $75,000); inventory of $10,200 consisting mainly of
leather jackets; accounts receivable of $1,850; office equipment of $1,106
(net after depreciation of $487) and prepaid expenses of $697. As of March 31,
2002, our liabilities of $2,211 were comprised solely of professional fees
payable primarily related to costs incurred in the preparation and filing of
our audited financial statements and Form 10-KSB for our year ended December
31, 2001.
Prior to the completion of our offering, we expensed services performed
by Bill Roberts, our president, and rent on space provided by Bill Roberts.
Mr Roberts was not and will not be repaid and this has been reflected on our
books as a contribution to capital. Services were performed at a rate of
$15.00 per hour and the office space was prorated at a value of $ 250 per
quarter due to its limited use during the initial stages of operations. We
commenced paying Mr. Roberts $500 per month for the use of office space upon
the completion of our offering and continued to do so during the first quarter
of 2002. No salaries or compensation have been paid by since June 30, 2001 at
which time the maximum allowable salaries to be paid out of offering proceeds
8
of $10,000 had been reached.
Since inception, management has actively initiated contacts and developed
relationships with various entities which purchase factory overruns from
manufacturers and distressed merchandise from retailers at a discount;
management has also made every effort to resell the same to various resellers
in Utah. We have never had a profitable quarter since the commencement of
actual operations during the third quarter of 2001. During the first quarter
of 2002, sales were only $870 and cost of goods sold was $702 resulting in a
gross profit margin of approximately 19%. Since the commencement of actual
operations our sales have totaled $5,956 with cost of goods sold totaling
$4,592 resulting in a gross profit margin of approximately 23%. This is not
indicative of a positive cash flow situation since we operated at a net loss
of $7,132, $3,971 and $6,013 for the third and fourth quarters of 2001 and the
first quarter of 2002, respectively. Unless we are able to gear up our
operations significantly, the 23% gross profit margin experienced during our
first three quarters of operations is not sufficient to cover the other costs
and expenses incurred by the Company. Nor will it be sufficient to provide us
with the ability to purchase sufficient merchandise to increase our cash
flows. It will be difficult to increase our sales volume sufficiently to
achieve a profit in the coming year. Although better than average prices on
wholesale goods are available to us, we do not have sufficient cash resources
to take advantage of these lower prices. Our lack of cash flows has dictated
that we make inventory purchases based on pre-sales, which is difficult to
achieve in a cautious economy.
Plan of Operation.
Our plan of operation for the next 12 months is to vigorously pursue
sources of bargain priced closeout, overstock and overrun merchandise and
retail outlets seeking such merchandise. We will minimize acquiring inventory
on "speculation" and will focus primarily on matching buyers with what sellers
have to offer. In this way we shall focus on conserving our financial
resources. We will also investigate other business opportunities if they
become known to us and we remain open to a change of business direction.
During the next 12 months, our only foreseeable cash requirements will
relate to overhead items. We have approximately $23,000 in cash available to
us for the next 12 months. We can expect minimum day to operating expenses
during the next year of approximately $15,000 including rent of $6,000, $2,000
in travel expenses related to locating inventory and customers, $1,200 in
telephone expenses, and storage expenses of $1,236; in addition, we will
require approximately $5,000 for legal and accounting necessary to maintain
compliance with our reporting obligations under the Exchange Act. We believe
the funds available to us will be sufficient to conduct operations as well as
pursue our business purpose so long as we minimize our inventory purchases as
indicated above. We will be dependent from cash flow generated from the sale
of our current inventory to continue implementing ours business plan through
the purchase and sale of additional inventory. Management will use every
effort to minimize expenses and has no plans for additional employees until or
unless warranted due to business needs.
If we cannot increase our limited revenues in the next twelve months, we
could be forced to discontinue operations unless we are able to raise
additional capital. It may be difficult to secure additional financing. We may
be able to attract some private investors, or officers and directors may be
9
willing to make additional cash contributions, advancements or loans. However,
there are no agreements with our officers and directors obligating them to
make additional cash contributions. We could also attempt some form
of debt or equity financing. There is no guarantee that any of the foregoing
methods of financing would be successful.

No selling shareholders participated in the offering which commenced on March
29, 2001, and closed on May 4, 2001 with maximum proceeds. The offering price
was $1.00 per share.

========
(1) Paid to Mr. William Roberts as agreed upon at a rate of $500 per
month for use of his home as our office
(2) Most of these expenses were incurred by Mr. Roberts in his efforts to
locate suppliers and acquire inventory
(3) Paid to Mr. Roberts and Kristine Ramsey, an officer, for services
performed at a rate of $15.00 per hour until the maximum allowable $10,000 was
reached.
(4) The balance of the proceeds remain on deposit in our bank account.
Except those expenses footnoted above, all other expenses were incurred
to parties other than:
. our directors, officers, or general partners or their associates;
. persons owning 10% or more of any class of our equity securities, or
. our affiliates.
Management believes that those expenses paid to or incurred by Mr.
Roberts/Ms. Ramsey are equal to or less than if the same were incurred or paid
to a non-related party.
