INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
Board of Directors
Art Boutique, Inc.
Hong Kong
We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Art Boutique, Inc. (A
Development Stage Company) as of June 30, 2004 and the related statements of
operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, and for
the period May 15, 1984 (inception) to June 30, 2004, and statements of cash
flows for the six-months ended June 30, 2003 and for the period May 15, 1984
(inception) to June 30, 2003 included in the accompanying Securities and
Exchange Commission Form 10-QSB for the period ended June 30, 2004. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquires of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, the objective
of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements as a
whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements for them to be in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and standard
of the PCAOB.
We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States, the balance sheet as of December 31, 2003, and
the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
the year then ended (not presented herein). In our report dated May 3, 2004, we
expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion,
the information set forth in the accompanying balance sheet as of June 30, 2004
is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the balance sheet from
which it has been derived.

Note 1 - Presentation of Interim Information:
In the opinion of the management of Art Boutique, Inc., the accompanying
unaudited financial statements include all normal adjustments considered
necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2004 and the
results of operations for the three-months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and the
period May15, 1984 (inception) to June 30, 2004, and cash flows for the
six-months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, and for the period May 15, 1984
(Inception) to June 30, 2004. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of
results for a full year.
The financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-QSB,
and do not contain certain information included in the Company's audited
financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.
Note 2 - Going Concern:
The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a
going concern, which contemplated the realization of assets and the satisfaction
of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company is in the development stage and has not earned any revenue from
operations. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent
upon its ability to develop additional sources of capital or locate a merger
candidate and ultimately, achieve profitable operations. The accompanying
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of these uncertainties. Management is seeking new capital to revitalize
the Company.

services, the Company may not be able to attract or retain qualified executives
and technology personnel, the Company's products and services may become
obsolete, government regulation may hinder the Company's business, additional
dilution in outstanding stock ownership may be incurred due to the issuance of
more shares, warrants and stock options, or the exercise of warrants and stock

statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof.
Readers should carefully review the factors described in other documents the
Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB and Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
filed by the Company in 2004 and any Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by the
Company.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATIONS
- - -------------
The company had no business operations but was seeking a business combination in
the period.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED TO SAME PERIOD
ENDED JUNE 30, 2003.
The Company had no revenues from operations in the period in 2004 or 2003. The
Company incurred expenses of $130,169 in the period in 2004 compared to none in
2003 and had a loss on operations of ($130,182) compared to none in the quarter
in 2003. The loss per share was nominal in the quarter in 2004 and none in 2003.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED TO SAME PERIOD
ENDED JUNE 30, 2003.
The Company had no revenues from operations in the period in 2004 or 2003. The
Company incurred expenses of $298,505 in the period in 2004 compared to none
in 2003 and had losses on operations of ($298,459) in 2004 compared to none in
2003. The loss per share was none in the six month period in 2004 compared to
none in the period in 2003.
The company expects the trend of losses to continue at the current rate as the
company seeks a business combination.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company had no cash capital at the end of the period and no assets. The
Company will be forced to either borrow or make private placements of stock in
order to fund operations. No assurance exists as to the ability to achieve loans
or make private placements of stock.
NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING
The Company does not have capital sufficient to meet the Company's cash
needs, including the costs of compliance with the continuing reporting
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company will have to
seek loans or equity placements to cover such cash needs. In the event the
Company is able to complete a business combination during this period, lack of
its existing capital may be a sufficient impediment to prevent it from
accomplishing the goal of completing a business combination. There is no
assurance, however, that without funds it will ultimately allow registrant to
carry out its business
The Company will need to raise additional funds to conduct any business
activities in the next twelve months.
No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by management
or other stockholders. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any
additional funds will be available to the Company to allow it to cover its
expenses as they may be incurred.
Irrespective of whether the Company's cash assets prove to be
inadequate to meet the Company's operational needs, the Company might seek to
compensate providers of services by issuances of stock in lieu of cash.
"GOING CONCERN" QUALIFICATION
The Company's auditor has issued a "going concern" qualification as part of
his opinion in the Audit Report. There is substantial doubt about the ability of
the Company to continue as a "going concern." The Company has no business,
limited capital, debt in excess of $56,494, all of which is current, no cash,
nominal other assets, and no capital commitments. The effects of such conditions
could easily be to cause the Company's bankruptcy.
Management hopes to develop its business plan and will need, at which to
seek and obtain funding, via loans or private placements of stock for operations
debt and to provide working capital. Management has plans to seek capital in the
form of loans or stock private placements in the next quarter of approximately
$250,000.
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
a. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange
Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period
specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures
include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act
is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure. As of the end of the period covered by this
report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with
the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based
upon and as of the date of that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in
the reports the Company files and submits under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported as and when required.
b. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:
There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting
identified in connection with the Company evaluation of these controls as of the
end of the period covered by this report that could have significantly affected
those controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation referred to in the
previous paragraph, including any correction action with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weakness.
