(a development stage enterprise) Notes to Financial Statements March 31, 2001, December 31, 2000 and March 31, 2000 NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Description of Operations The Company was organized under the laws of the state of Nevada in 1998 and is authorized to do business in the United States. The Company has no revenue from operations during the period covered by this financial statement. Method of Accounting These financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Consequently, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when the obligation is actually incurred. Income Taxes and Cash Flows The Company accounts for income taxes and the statement of cash flows in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109 and No. 95. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. NOTE 2: CASH The Company has no bank accounts at this time. NOTE 3 - EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share has been computed by dividing net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. There are no items which are deemed to be common stock equivalents during the audit period. NOTE 4: COMMON STOCK As of March 31, 2001, December 31, 2000 and March 31, 2000, the Company had 3,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, issued and outstanding. NOTE 5 - LEASE COMMITMENTS The Company currently has no commitments for leases or contingencies. NOTE 6 - USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATION NOTE REGARDING PROJECTIONS AND FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS This statement includes projections of future results and "forward-looking statements" as that term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the "Exchange Act"). All statements that are included in this Registration Statement, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Although Management believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations are disclosed in this Statement, including, without limitation, those expectations reflected in forward-looking statements contained in this Statement. Plan of Operation The Company's Plan of Operation has not changed since the filing of its Form 10-SB filed with the SEC on March 22, 2000. The description of the current plan of operation is incorporated by reference to Section 2 of its Form 10-SB. Competition The Company will remain an insignificant participant among the firms which engage in the acquisition of business opportunities. There are many established venture capital and financial concerns which have significantly greater financial and personnel resources and technical expertise than the Company. In view of the Company's combined extremely limited financial resources and limited management availability, the Company will continue to be at a significant competitive disadvantage compared to the Company's competitors. Employees The Company has no full time or part-time employees. None of the officers and directors anticipates devoting more than ten (10%) percent of his or her time to Company activities. The Company's President and Secretary have agreed to allocate a portion of said time to the activities of the Company, without compensation. These officers anticipate that the business plan of the Company 8 can be implemented by their devoting minimal time per month to the business affairs of the Company and, consequently, conflicts of interest may arise with respect to the limited time commitment by such officers. See "Item 5 - Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons - Resumes" on the Form 10-SB filed with the SEC on March 22, 2000. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings and, to the best of its knowledge, no such action has been threatened by or against the Company. ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS No issues of securities and no changes in the existing securities took place during the period covered by this report. At the end of the quarter there were 3,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No such matters were submitted during the most recent quarter. ITEM 6. EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K EXHIBITS a) The exhibit consisting of the Company's Articles of Incorporation is attached to the Company's Form 10-SB, filed on March 22, 2000. This exhibit is incorporated by reference to that Form. b) The exhibit consisting of the Company's Bylaws is attached to the Company's Amended Form 10-SB, filed on March 22, 2000.
