HOUSEHOLD DIRECT.com, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) ORGANIZATION
On January 2, 1992, RDI Marketing, Inc. ("RDI") (AKA Household Direct.com)
was formed as a Florida corporation. Upon formation, RDI issued 1,000 shares of
common stock. RDI essentially remained dormant with no direct or indirect
business activity until reinstatement on May 18, 1998. On May 18, 1998, RDI
adopted a plan of recapitalization whereby the 1,000 shares of common stock were
converted into 1,000,000 shares of .001 par value common stock. In addition to
the recapitalization on May 18, 1998, RDI filed a disclosure statement under
Rule 15C2-11 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (hereafter the "Exchange
Act") with the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD"). As a result,
commencing on June 11, 1998, RDI's common stock was quoted on the OTC Bulletin
Board.
On July 10, 1998, RDI exchanged 10,000,000 shares of common stock for all
of the outstanding stock of Preferred Consumer Network International, Inc.
("PCNI") (see Note 3).
PCNI, incorporated on June 13, 1997, was engaged in the business of
developing and operating a wholesale buying club which provided buying,
marketing and financial services to third party owned wholesale buying clubs.
The traditional buying club business model (the "Traditional Model") being
utilized by PCNI was predicated on the sale of memberships to the general
public, which memberships entitled the holders to purchase goods and services
through the wholesale buying club at wholesale prices (exclusive of separately
charged taxes, handling and shipping charges and a processing fee of up to 10%).
During the fourth quarter of 1998, RDI elected to abandon the Traditional Model
in preference to a new business model (the "New Model") predicated on the mass
marketing (through telemarketing and the internet) of memberships. Additionally,
the operations of PCNI, based on the Old Model were suspended and PCNI became
inactive. Subsequently, RDI sold all of the issued and outstanding capital stock
of PCNI to Mr. John Folger (the President, a member of the Board of Directors
and a principle shareholder of RDI) for nominal consideration (see Note 3).
RDI, in furtherance of the development of the New Model, entered into
several acquisitions during 1999.
On May 7, 1999, the Company acquired all of the common stock of
Thunderstick in exchange for 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. A
shareholder donated 500,000 shares to the Company and the shares were given as
50% consideration to the former shareholders of Thunderstick. The Company
recorded a liability of $5,000 as balance owed in acquisition, pending an
additional 500,000 shares. In May 2000, the Company issued the additional
500,000 shares to the former shareholders of Thunderstick and charged off the
liability.
On May 14, 1999, RDI entered into an acquisition agreement whereby RDI
agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
Thunderstick, Inc. ("Thunderstick") in exchange for 1,000,000 shares of common
stock. Thunderstick, through its wholly-owned affiliate Thunderstick Software,
LLC, is engaged in the business of developing and marketing internet software
which will be utilized to support RDI's website and e-commerce operations (see
Note 3).
HOUSEHOLD DIRECT.com, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(1) ORGANIZATION (CONTINUED)
In July, 1999, RDI, changed its corporate domicile from Florida to
Delaware, and its name to HouseHold Direct.com, Inc. (the "Company"). These
changes were effectuated by merging the Company into its wholly-owned Delaware
subsidiary, and such merger had no impact on the shareholders or the capital
accounts of the Company.
In September, 1999, the Company entered into an acquisition agreement with
Megappliance, Inc. ("Mega") pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire a
website (including software, technology and related commercial relationships) in
exchange for shares of the Company's common stock (see Note 3).
On March 9, 2000, the Company executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger with
Cross Check Corp., a Colorado corporation ("Cross") and a Letter Agreement with
the shareholders of Cross. Pursuant to such agreements, the Company merged Cross
(which had no business operations but was registered, and fully reporting, under
the Exchange Act) into the Company so that the Company could achieve "successor
issuer" status under the Exchange Act. In connection with such merger which was
consummated on March 20, 2000, the Company paid $150,000 in cash and issued
100,000 shares of common stock of the Company to the former shareholders of
Cross.
(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate the
continuation of the Company as a going-concern. However, the Company is in the
development stage, and since inception has been engaged primarily in raising
capital and developing its website, product, and market strategy. The Company
has not generated significant revenues from operations, and in the course of
funding product and website development and other start-up activities, has
experienced cumulative net losses of $4,796,714 for the period from May 18, 1998
(inception) to September 30, 2000, and has used cash in operations of $2,542,148
for the period from May 18, 1998 (inception) to September 30, 2000. The Company
expects that it will continue to incur net operating losses as it expends
substantial resources on product development and sales and marketing in an
attempt to capture market share and develop market recognition. Management is in
the process of raising additional capital through continued issuance of stock.
Management of the Company believes that its additional capital that is expected
to be raised in the future will be sufficient to cover its working capital needs
until the Company's revenue volume reaches a sufficient level to cover operating
expenses. Without the assurances of additional capital, these factors raise a
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going-concern.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. Intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue for services is recognized when the service is rendered, while
product revenue is recognized when the product is shipped to the customer.
Revenue consisted of products sold and shipped from the PCNI subsidiary. Revenue
relates to consulting services performed by Thunderstick. Revenue consists of
service income earned related to the contract entered into with Personal
Consumer Services, Inc.
Deferred Revenues
Deferred revenue, as presented on the balance sheet, relates to unpaid
service agreement fees to be paid by PCS from uncollected accounts receivable of
Personal Consumer Services, Inc (PCS). Due to the uncertainty of collection
history of PCS, only the fee actually paid by PCS to the Company in the first
six months and fees received subsequent to the second quarter were recorded as
revenue. Only revenues projected to be collected in the next year are shown as
current service fee receivable. The balance is shown as other assets.

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, ranging from three to
five years. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 "Disclosure About Fair
Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure about the fair value of all
financial assets and liabilities for which it is practicable to estimate. At
September 30, 2000, the carrying value of all of the Company's accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value
because of their short term nature. The note payable carrying value approximates
fair value based on the borrowing rate currently available to the Company for
loans with similar terms.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill
Goodwill reflects the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net
assets purchased and is amortized on a straight-line basis over 3 years. As of
September 30, 2000, amortization expense for the nine months ended was $7,014.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
considers all highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months
or less to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated 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 and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial statements and the reported amounts of the revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined
principally on the average cost method. Inventory at September 30, 2000 were as
follows:

Loss per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per
share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common
shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period. Net
loss per share has been stated for all periods presented in accordance with SFAS
No. 128.
(3) ACQUISITIONS AND SALES
Preferred Consumer Network International, Inc.
On July 10, 1998, the Company purchased PCNI in exchange for 10,000,000
shares of common stock at $0.001 par value per share. This acquisition was
accounted for by using the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly the
deficit assumed was initially recorded by the Company based on estimated fair
values at the date of acquisition:
Deficit $ (693,716)
Goodwill 703,716
---------------
Purchase consideration $ 10,000
===============
On December 31, 1998, the Company sold PCNI to a major shareholder of the
Company for $1.
Thunderstick, Inc.
On May 7, 1999, a related party exchanged 500,000 shares of .001 par value
per share personally held common stock (par value $5,000) of the Company for 50%
of the purchase consideration for all of the stock of Thunderstick. The Company
agreed to replace the shares so applied and therefore, $5,000 was included in
amounts payable to related parties. The outstanding portion, 500,000 shares of
common stock (par value $5,000), was issued in May 2000.

Company based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition:
Equity $ 28,580
Negative goodwill (18,580)

Purchase consideration $ 10,000
===============
The market value of the Company's shares on May 7, 1999 was $0.346 per
share, equating to a value of $346,000. Based on the substance of the purchase
agreement, as well as the underlying net assets of the acquired company, the
transaction was recorded at fair value and subsequently written down to the par
value of the Company's shares.
The non-current assets of the purchased company were reduced by the
negative goodwill.
Megappliance, Inc.
On September 9, 1999, a related party exchanged personally held stock of
the Company valued at $34,720 for the assets of Mega. This acquisition was
accounted for by using the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly the
assets assumed were initially recorded by the Company based on estimated fair
values at the date of acquisition:
Computer equipment $ 16,000
Goodwill 18,720

(6) FORMATION OF ADDITIONAL SUBSIDIARIES
During the first nine months of 2000, the Company formed additional wholly
owned subsidiaries for the purpose of expanding and pursuing other related
business opportunities.
(7) AGREEMENT WITH PERSONAL CONSUMER SERVICES, INC.
In January 2000, the Company entered into a service agreement (the
"Agreement") with a third party wholesale buying club, Personal Consumer
Services, Inc. ("PCS"). The Company is to provide services for PCS members in
exchange for a base fee and monthly retainer as defined in the Agreement. The
Agreement expires in December 2005 with an option to extend the term for an
additional five years. As of September 30, 2000, the Company is owed $652,872
from PCS, of which $612,688 has been recorded as deferred revenue. The Company
has had no prior history of collection on this receivable, which is secured by
only memberships receivable of PCS that in most instances are at least one year
old. Because of this fact, the Company has set up a reserve of $520,000 against
the receivable which is offset as a reduction of deferred revenue.
(8) PURCHASE OF CROSS CHECK CORP.(CROSS)
On March 9, 2000, the Company executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger with
Cross and a Letter of Agreement with the shareholders of Cross. Pursuant to such
agreements, the Company merged Cross (which had no business operations but was
registered, and fully reporting, under the Exchange Act) into the Company so
that the Company could achieve "successor issuer" status under the Exchange Act.

Overview
HouseHold Direct.com, Inc. ("the Company") is in the process of creating a
unique new Internet "consumer services membership club" by offering direct
access to "cost-plus" prices from manufacturers and distributors. The Company
believes manufacturers are seeking a new Internet based consumer service
solution for the first time. Through its fulfillment partners and direct
relationships, the Company provides direct pricing from brand name
manufacturers/distributors on their entire current product line. The Company is
positioned as a massive new "membership club" for the Internet similar to the
proven market acceptability of Costco, Sam's Club and BJ's Warehouse. The
Company believes the Management Team possesses the required skills and
experience from corporate to startup backgrounds; and, is experienced in
business development, marketing, operations, web-site design and management, and
database application support.
The services being developed by the Company create a substantial benefit
for two constituent groups - consumer and manufacturer. The consumers benefit by
a dramatic reduction in product prices. While supplying this price advantage,
the Company collects significant and valuable personal data and product
preferences information. This rich demographic product and psychographic data
helps manufacturers in developing a consumer-direct, knowledge based, product
order and fulfillment capability. These manufacturers will contribute
advertising dollars and participation fees for these services. Value added
service providers, such as insurance and financial services have also allied
strategically with the Company. This innovative concept of "cost-plus-handling
charge" will position the Company in a groundbreaking new category for Internet
service and content providers, and drive revenue for membership fees and
advertising. A number of strategic alliances and acquisitions have been
completed. Additional relationships are in discussion and review stages that
combine the reach of the Internet with physical locations serving key
geographical markets.
The Company expects to expand its membership base by using a "members only"
style of telemarketing program. Residual monthly membership revenues will be
increased by the introduction of additional bundled services. The inexpensive
monthly fee for core services allows for the bundling of additional ISP
(Internet Service Provider), Telco and utility payment services. This revenue
stream, coupled with rich consumer data, will become a valuable corporate asset.

the nine months ended September 30, 2000 resulted from the Company's service
agreement with PCS, a member-based consumer product organization. Consulting

ended September 30, 1999 to $546,601 for the nine months ended September 30,
2000; a 220% increase. This is primarily attributable to the Company's hiring of

Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
INCOME TAX
The Company had net operating losses (NOLs) of $4,796,714 at September
30,2000, primarily because of past expenses associated with development stage
activities. These NOLs and corresponding estimated tax assets, computed at a 38%
tax rate, expire at various dates through the year 2018. Realization of deferred
tax assets associated with the NOL is dependent upon generating sufficient
taxable income prior to their expiration.
Management believes that there is a risk that these NOLs may expire unused
and, accordingly, has established a 100% valuation allowance against them and
has not recognized any tax benefit to the NOLs.
LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND CAPITAL COMMITMENTS
For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, net cash used by operations
was $1,377,667 principally due to the year-to-date loss of $1,932,767. This was
partially offset by depreciation of $46,470, amortization of $7,231 and shares
issued for services in the amount of $154,750, while current assets and
liabilities provided $346,646. For the year ended 1999, net cash used by
operations was $918,833 which was offset by depreciation and amortization of
$23,610 and shares issued for services of $479,503, while current liabilities
provided cash of $817,485.
Cash used by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 were principally related to the investment in software $26,785 (Profitware)
and the addition of computer and office equipment in the amount of $121,005. For
the year ended December 31, 1999, cash used in investing activities was $61,788,
primarily for the acquisition of property and equipment amounting to $79,603.
The Company anticipates that the current negative working capital of
$1,791,853 will be supplemented in the short term by the sale of common stock.
For a description of certain factors that could adversely affect the
Company's future capital requirements and the adequacy of its available funds,
including factors that are beyond the Company's control, see the discussion
under Note 2 to the financial statements in the Company's Report on Form 8KA for
the month of March 2000 which included the Company's financial statement for the
