(formerly COPPER CORPORATION) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Note 1: Basis of Presentation The consolidated condensed financial statements presented herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the accounting policies in its audited financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2003 filed in its Form 10-KSB and should be read in conjunction with the notes thereto. The Company plans to evaluate, structure and complete a merger with (or acquisition of) a privately owned corporation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary to provide a fair presentation of operating results for the interim period presented have been made. The results of operations for the nine-month period ended January 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year. Interim financial data presented herein are unaudited. Note 2: Related Party Transactions During the nine months ended January 31, 2004 and 2003, management provided free office space to the Company, on an as needed basis. The Company's Board of Directors valued this free service at approximately $100 per month, based on prevailing local market rates. The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements include a charge to rent expense and a credit to paid-in capital of $900 and $900, for the nine months ended January 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. During the nine months ended January 31, 2004, affiliates contributed $7,600 to the Company, on an as needed basis, for working capital. During the nine months ended January 31, 2004, certain members of management provided their time and effort to the Company, on an as needed basis, at no charge to the Company. The Company's Board of Directors valued this free service at approximately $50 per hour, based on prevailing local market rates. An affiliate paid certain administrative costs on behalf of the Company, on an as needed basis, for all periods presented in the accompanying financial statements. The costs, consisting of legal, accounting and filing fees, are necessary for the Company to maintain its reporting status in conformity with the provisions Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. During the nine months ended January 31, 2004 the affiliate paid $12,754 in legal, accounting, and general and administrative costs on behalf of the Company, which the Company recorded as a charge to operations with a corresponding credit to contributed capital in the accompanying condensed financial statements. Note 3: Income Taxes The Company records its income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109,"Accounting for Income Taxes'. The Company incurred net operating losses during the periods shown on the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements resulting in a deferred tax asset, which was fully allowed for; therefore, the net benefit and expense result in $-0- income taxes. - -7- Item 2. Plan of Operations. General The Company has no full-time employees, incurs nominal rent and administrative expenses and has no other recurring operating expenses, except for those professional fees and expenses necessary to maintain its reporting status under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company anticipates raising no capital over the next twelve months. The Company has no plans to acquire any assets or make any investments prior to completing a merger. The Company has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Investors Preferred Opportunities, Inc. ("IPO"). The merger is contingent upon Investors Preferred obtaining the business of Princeton Homes, Corporation, a modular home manufacturer located in Virginia. Selection of an appropriate merger candidate is complex and risky due to the lack of Company financial resources, the speculative nature of such a transaction, management's limited time commitment to the Company, management's potential conflicts of interest, the burdens of being a reporting company, and competition in the marketplace. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in consummating a merger with a privately held company or that such a merger will result in profitable operations. Special note regarding forward-looking statements This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws. These statements plan for or anticipate the future. Forward-looking statements include statements about our future business plans and strategies, statements about our need for working capital, future revenues, results of operations and most other statements that are not historical in nature. In this Report, forward-looking statements are generally identified by the words "intend", "plan", "believe", "expect", "estimate", and the like. Investors are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Except as otherwise required by applicable securities statues or regulations, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Because forward-looking statements involve future risks and uncertainties, these are factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied. -8- Results of Operations Nine Months Ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.
