Financial Statements Quarterly Financial Statements: The accompanying unaudited financial statements for the three-month period ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10QSB and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for completed financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period have been made. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share Primary income per share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1999 and March 31, 1998 was computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods. Fully diluted income per share for the three-month period ended March 31, 1999, was computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods, as well as the number of common shares that would be outstanding as a results of the conversion of the Company's preferred stock. For the Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------- 1999 1998 ---------- ---------- Number of shares used in calculation Basic 22,004,000 22,004,000 Diluted 26,364,395 26,364,395 -6- Cash and Cash Equivalents For cash flow purposes the Company considers all certificates of deposit and highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized using the accrual method of accounting. Note 3. Liquidity As previously reported, on June 16, 1997, the Company sold substantially all of its assets and business to West Coast Entertainment Corporation, ("West Coast"). Notwithstanding the sale of its operating business, the Company's financial statements included herein have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company's viability for the foreseeable future is and will continue to be dependent upon its ability to find other business opportunities, to secure needed capital and to successfully conclude existing litigation. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in that regard. In the event the Company is not successful, it is unlikely that there would be any amounts available for distribution to the Company's stockholders. Note 4. West Coast Transaction and Discontinued Operations As previously reported, the Company consummated the previously announced sale of substantially all of its assets to West Coast on June 16, 1997. The consideration for the assets sold consisted entirely of cash in the amount of $2,430,000. A substantial portion of the proceeds was used to reduce a portion of the Company's liabilities at closing. In addition, $243,000 of the proceeds was escrowed with West Coast pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement between the Company and West Coast. The escrowed funds have been released to the Company and expended. Note 5. Long Term Notes Payable The Company has been dependent on borrowing for operating capital. The Company has borrowed $75,000 as of quarter ending March 31, 1999. The notes are for a two- (2) year term and accrued interest at 10% per annum compounded annually payable at maturity. Note 6. Borrowing, Related Party Transactions A current Company officer has loaned the Company $5,000 as of quarter ended March 31, 1999. The Company has repaid the amount. -7- Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following Management's discussion of certain significant factors that have affected the Company's financial condition changes in financial condition, and results of operations. The discussion also includes the Company's liquidity and capital resources at March 31, 1999 and later dated information, where practicable. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and notes included in this form 10-QSB. The Company generated no revenues during the three-months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. Management of the Company anticipates that the Company will not generate any significant revenues until the Company accomplishes it business objective of merging or acquiring revenue producing assets from a nonaffiliated entity. The Company presently has no liquid financial resources to offer an acquisition candidate and must rely upon an exchange of its stock to complete a merger or acquisition. Between December 31, 1998 and March 31, 1999 the Company incurred a net loss of $46,144 resulting in a net working capital deficiency of approximately $60,000 as of March 31, 1999. The Company's viability for the foreseeable future is and will continue to be dependent upon its ability to find other business opportunity, to secure needed capital and to successfully resolve existing disputes. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in that regard. In the event the Company is not successful, it is unlikely that there would be any amounts available for distribution to the Company's stockholders. As previously reported, on June 16, 1997, the Company sold substantially all of its assets and business to West Coast Entertainment Corporation, ("West Coast"). Notwithstanding the sale of its operating business, the Company's financial statements included herein have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has no operations at the present, however, and has engaged in no business since at least June 16, 1998. Current officers and Directors of the Company estimated that outstanding liabilities of the Company are approximately $138,000 and cash in the bank is approximately $2,000. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB contains forward looking information with respect to, among other things, plans future events or future performance of the Company, the occurrence of which involve certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or future events to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risk and uncertainties associated -8- with adverse litigation, the ability to identify and conclude alternative business opportunities, and those risks and uncertainties detailed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Where any forward looking statement includes a statement of the assumption or bases believed to be reasonable and are made in good faith, assumed facts or bases almost always vary from actual result, and the differences between assumed facts or bases and actual results can be material, depending upon the circumstances. Where, in any forward looking statement, the Company expresses and expectation or belief as to plans or future results or events, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the statement of expectation or belief will result or be achieved or accomplished. The words "believe", "expect" and "anticipate" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The Company is aware of the issues associated with Year 2000 ("Y2K") software compliance and the need to upgrade existing programming code in any computer system that it may use or purchase as the year 2000 approaches. The year 2000 issue relates to whether a computer system will properly recognize dates after 1999. If it cannot adequately process beyond the year 1999 and is not corrected, significant difficulties may be encountered in using the computer system. The Company currently uses computer time on a system that is available on an as needed basis provided for by an affiliate of the Company. It is not anticipated that the Company will incur any negative impact as a result of this potential problem. However, it is possible that this issue may have an impact on the Company if the Company successfully consummates a merger or acquisition. Management intends to address this potential problem with any prospective merger or acquisition candidate. There can be no assurances that new management of the Company will be able to avoid a problem in this regard after a merger or acquisition is so consummated. Part II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings On February 9, 1999 a lawsuit was filed against the Company by a law firm seeking payment of professional fees of $353,799. The Company entered into a settlement agreement in the amount of $50,000 that was paid on March 31, 1999. Further on June 9, 1999 the Company entered into a settlement agreement with another law firm, which was seeking payment of $15,500 for professional fees.
