SEMPER RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. INTERIM FINANCIAL PRESENTATION
The financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit
and are subject to year-end adjustment. Certain information and footnote
disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These
interim statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements filed by the Company on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only
normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary
to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and
cash flows.
Results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September
30, 1999 and 1998, are not necessarily indicative of results to be achieved for
the full fiscal year.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
There were no revenues for either the three months or nine months ended
September 30, 1999 or September 30, 1998 as the sole business activity of the
Company was its search for a business to acquire and the acquisition of certain
timber concessions and the planning for their development.
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30
Operating expenses increased by $545 or 7.8% to $7,470 from $6,925 for the
three months ended September 30, 1998. This increase is the result of an
increase in general and administrative expenses of $449 and an increase in
interest of $96.
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30
Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 decreased
by $90,811 or 80.3% to $22,349 from $113,160 for the corresponding period of the
prior year. The decrease is attributable to a reduction of $3,076 in general and
administrative expenses, $618 in amortization, $471 in interest expense and the
lack of discontinued operations for which there was a charge in 1998 of $86,646.
CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
For the past twelve months, the Company has funded its operating losses and
capital requirements through the sale of stock and loans from its shareholders.
As of September 30, 1999, the Company had a cash balance of $1,386 and a working
capital deficit of $365,500. This compares with cash of $1,395 and a working
capital deficit of $333,228 for the corresponding period of the prior year.
6
Net cash used in operating activities decreased to $14 from $12,234 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The decrease in
cash used in operations resulted from a reduced net operating loss which was
partially offset by the absence of a non-cash charge for discontinued operations
and net charges in current accounts.
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased to $20 from $10,033 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. This decrease
is attributable to reduced loans from related parties.
As of September 30, 1999, the Company had a demand loan payable to a
shareholder of $50,000, a demand loan to a non-related third party of $50,000
and advances from shareholders of $14,343.
The Company has experienced significant operating losses throughout its
history, and the acquisition of Resources of the Pacific, Inc. will acquire
substantial funds for the development of its business. Therefore, the Company's
ability to survive is dependent on its ability to raise capital through the
issuance of stock or borrowing of additional funds. Without the success of one
of these options, the Company will not have sufficient cash to satisfy its
working capital and investment requirements for the next twelve months.
