which are intended to teach people how to make positive changes in their lives.
The Company sells materials and delivers seminars to corporations, nonprofit

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of L.L. Brown
International, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary L.L. Brown & Associates,
Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consists primarily of trade receivables, bad debts allowance
is accrued at .5% of net sales.
Inventories
Inventories consist of printed and audio/visual materials developed by the
Company and are stated at the lower cost or market based on the first-in,
first-out method.
Federal income tax
The provisions for income taxes is recorded in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS 109), "Accounting for Income
Taxes". Under the liability method of SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and

reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and have been measured using
the enacted marginal tax rates and laws that are currently in effect. The types
of significant temporary differences include depreciation.

L.L. Brown International, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2001 and 2000
Property and equipment
Property is stated at historical cost as detailed in Note 3. Major expenditures
for property and those that substantially increase the useful lives of property
are capitalized. Property is depreciated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging between five and seven years.
Leased property is stated at the lower of the present value of future minimum
lease payments or fair value of the property. Leased property is depreciated on
a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful
lives ranging between five and seven years. Amortization of assets held under
capital leases is included in depreciation expense.
Management's Estimates and Assumptions
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 amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue at the time of shipment of product to its
customers or completion of services provided.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company has chosen to account for stock-based compensation using the
intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related Interpretations and to
elect the disclosure option of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation". Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options issued to
employees is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the
Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to
acquire the stock.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations.
General
In March 2001, the Company issued an additional 26,000 shares of its
restricted common stock to Neil Rand for continuing services performed by Mr.
Rand d/b/a Corporate Imaging for the Company. Additionally, the Company issued
10,000 shares of its restricted common stock to Alan and Viola Ose for storage
space in the Phoenix area and sold 1,000 shares to one (1) investor for $1,000.
For such offering, the Company relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Act"), Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder
Section 517.061(11) of the Florida Code, Section 406-44A-506 of the Washington
Code and Section 2 of Chapter 9 - Notice Filings for Public Securities and
Section 17-4-132 of the Wyoming Statutes.
The facts relied upon to make the Florida exemption available include the
following: (i) sales of the shares of common stock were not made to more than
thirty-five (35) persons; (ii) neither the offer nor the sale of any of the
shares was accomplished by the publication of any advertisement; (iii) all
purchasers either had a preexisting personal or business relationship with one
or more of the executive officers of the Company or, by reason of their business
or financial experience, could be reasonably assumed to have the capacity to
protect their own interests in connection with the transaction; (iv) each
purchaser represented that he was purchasing for his own account and not with a
view to or for sale in connection with any distribution of the shares; and (v)
prior to sale, each purchaser had reasonable access to or was furnished all
material books and records of the Company, all material contracts and documents
relating to the proposed transaction, and had an opportunity to question the
executive officers of the Company. Pursuant to Rule 3E-500.005, in offerings
made under Section 517.061(11) of the Florida Statutes, an offering memorandum
is not required; however each purchaser (or his representative) must be provided
with or given reasonable access to full and fair disclosure of material
information. An issuer is deemed to be satisfied if such purchaser or his
representative has been given access to all material books and records of the
issuer; all material contracts and documents relating to the proposed
transaction; and an opportunity to question the appropriate executive officer.
The facts relied upon to make the Washington Exemption applicable include
the following: (i) the Company filed a completed SEC Form D with the Washington
Department of Financial Institutions, Securities Division; (ii) the Form was
filed not later than fifteen (15) days after the first sale; and (iii) the
Company executed a Form U-2 consent to service of process, and (iv) the Company
paid an appropriate filing fee of $300.00 to the Washington State Treasurer.
The facts relied upon to make the Wyoming Exemption applicable include the
following: (i) the sale was to not more that fifteen (15) persons within twelve
(12) months, (ii) the issuer reasonably believes that all the buyers are
purchasing for investment purposes, (iii) no commission or other remuneration is
paid for soliciting any prospective buyer in Wyoming, (iv) the Company filed a
completed SEC Form D with the Wyoming Secretary of State; (v) the Company
executed a Form U-2 consent to service of process in the state of Wyoming; and
(vi) the Company paid an appropriate filing fee of $200.00.

Discussion and Analysis
The Company has been engaged in the motivational training business since
its inception in February 1997. In March 1998, it acquired L.L. Brown and
Associates, Inc., a Washington corporation ("LLBA") formed in September 1992 as
a wholly-owned subsidiary, which was also engaged in the motivational training
business. Both the Company's and LLBA's founding philosophies arose from the
diversified experience of their management in the motivational training and
related industries.
The Company was formed in February 1997 and had little or no operations
until March, 1998, when it acquired LLBA. L.L. Brown is a public educational
corporation which designs and markets curricula and training materials that
teach people how to make positive changes in their lives. Its principle purpose
is to teach techniques in critical thinking, self-image psychology and self
motivation which helps people to improve the quality of their lives.
L.L. Brown's seminars and training material are widely used by
corporations, non-profit agencies, universities, social service agencies, school
districts and youth services agencies. The Company works with people to show
them that change is possible and shows organizations and their employees how to
become resilient, focused, goal oriented and innovative. They use techniques in
self-image psychology and mind/brain research and apply it to everyday
situations, such as transition and decision making. Their customers are taught
to achieve their personal and professional goals with an array of products and
services.
Results of Operations -For the Three Months Ending March 31, 2001 and March 31,
2000
Financial Condition, Capital Resources and Liquidity
Through the 1st quarter ended March 31, 2000 and 2001 the Company recorded
revenues of $114,760 and $106,938 respectively. The decrease in revenues was due
to the fact that the Company focused on and entered into longer term contracts
than it had in the past. Although this guaranteed the Company a steady revenue
stream, packages for service and products were at bulk (lower) rates and
resulted in decreased revenues.
For the 1st quarter ended March 31, 2000 and 2001 the Company had general
and administrative expenses of $77,532 and $119,709 respectively. This increase
in expenses of $42,177 was due to the hiring of a full time chief of operations
and computer programmer/webmaster and also the fees associated with having to
prepare GAAP compliant quarterly and annual financial statements.
Net Losses
Through the 1st quarter ended March 31, 2000 the Company reported a net
loss of $7,973. Through the 1st quarter ended March 31, 2001 the Company
reported a net loss of $115,926.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
increasing sales and obtaining additional capital and financing. The Company is
currently seeking financing to allow it to continue its planned operations.
14
Employees
At March 31, 2001, the Company employed three (3) persons. None of these
employees are represented by a labor union for purposes of collective
bargaining. The Company considers its relations with its employees to be
excellent. The Company plans to employ additional personnel as needed upon
product rollout to accommodate fulfillment needs.
Research and Development Plans
The Company believes that research and development is an important factor
in its future growth. The self improvement and motivation industry is closely
linked to psychological advances, which enhance the quality of the Company's
products and services for its use by the public. Therefore, the Company must
continually invest in the latest technology to appeal to the public and to
effectively compete with other companies in the industry. No assurance can be
made that the Company will have sufficient funds to research psychological
advances as they become available. Additionally, due to the rapid advance rate
at which self-psychology advances, the Company's research and materials may be
outdated quickly, preventing or impeding the Company from realizing its full
potential profits.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 10-QSB includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than
statements of historical facts, included or incorporated by reference in this
Form 10-QSB which address activities, events or developments which the Company
expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including such things as
future capital expenditures (including the amount and nature thereof), expansion
and growth of the Company's business and operations, and other such matters are
forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain assumptions
and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and its perception
of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as
well as other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. However,
whether actual results or developments will conform with the Company's
expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties,
general economic market and business conditions; the business opportunities (or
lack thereof) that may be presented to and pursued by the Company; changes in
laws or regulation; and other factors, most of which are beyond the control of
the Company.
Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this Form
10-QSB are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no
assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by the Company
will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the
expected consequence to or effects on the Company or its business or operations.
