FAR EAST VENTURES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by Far East
Ventures, Inc. (the "Company"), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The information furnished herein reflects
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating
results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally present in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations. The results of the six months ended June
30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year ending December 31, 2000.
NOTE 2 - UNEARNED CONSULTING FEES
In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting
Bulletin 4-E, prepaid consulting fees are shown as a deduction from equity.
NOTE 3 - LOSS PER SHARE
In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share." SFAS No.
128 replaced the previously reported primary and fully diluted loss per share
with basic and diluted loss per share. Unlike primary loss per share, basic loss
per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants, and convertible
securities. Diluted loss per share is very similar to the previously reported
fully diluted loss per share. Basic loss per share is computed using the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Common
equivalent shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is
anti-dilutive.
There are no common stock equivalents.
NOTE 4 - CONSULTING AGREEMENTS
In January 2000, the Company issued to R.R.P., L.L.C., an unrelated third party,
300,000 shares of the Company's common stock in accordance with a one year
consulting agreement. The shares have been valued in accordance with FASB No.
123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" at $1,274,880 based on the fair
market value of the Company's common stock on the date of issuance of the
shares.
In January 2000, the Company entered into a one-year consulting agreement with
the majority stockholder of the Company. The agreement is for investor and
public relations services to be rendered by the Consultant over a twelve-month
period. For the services rendered, the Consultant will receive 500,000 shares of
the Company's common stock. The shares have been valued in accordance with FASB
No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" at $2,062,500 based on the
fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of issuance of the
shares.

NOTE 4 - CONSULTING AGREEMENTS, continued
In January 2000, the Company engaged Chanin Capital Partners, LLC ("CCP") and
its affiliates to act as exclusive financial advisor and/or agent to the Company
in connection with acquisitions. CCP has agreed to initiate a private placement
of up to $100,000,000, on best efforts, of senior secured debt, senior
subordinated notes or equity. For these services CCP will be paid a one-time
advisory fee of $25,000 and a commission, based on a percentage of funding, for
any private placement financing.
In March 2000, the Company issued to Alan Burkun, an unrelated third party,
900,000 shares of the Company's common stock in accordance with a consulting
agreement. The shares have been valued in accordance with FASB No. 123
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" at $3,037,500 based on the fair market
value of the Company's common stock on the date of issuance of the shares.
In March 2000, the Company issued to J.B. Marc & Associates, an unrelated third
party, 900,000 shares of the Company's common stock in accordance with a
consulting agreement. The shares have been valued in accordance with FASB No.
123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" at $1,237,500 based on the fair
market value of the Company's common stock on the date of issuance of the
shares.
In December 1999, Churchill Resources, Inc. ("CRI") engaged Crary Onthank and
O'Neil LLC ("COO"), who have agreed to initiate a private placement of up to
$6,000,000, on best efforts, of senior secured debt, senior subordinated notes
or equity. The funds will be used for CRI's acquisition of the operating assets
of Orangeville Raceway, Ltd. For these services, COO will be paid a one-time
advisory fee of 25,000 shares of the Company's common stock and a commission,
based on a percentage of funding, for any private placement financing.
NOTE 5 - ACQUISTION
In January 2000, the Company completed an acquisition of CRI. The Company issued
4,500,000 shares of its common stock for all of the issued and outstanding
common stock of CRI. After the acquisition, CRI will have a majority ownership
of the Company. Since CRI will be the controlling stockholder, CRI will be the
successor by merger to the Company. Therefore, the acquisition will be accounted
for as a recapitalization of CRI and the historical and continuing financial
statement presentation will be that of the legal subsidiary, CRI, not the legal
parent, the Company. Due to the Company's lack of business activity prior to the
merger, no excess cost over fair value of net assets acquired will be recorded.
In January 2000, the Company, formerly CRI, executed an asset purchase agreement
and paid an initial deposit of $100,000 to purchase the operating assets of
Orangeville Raceway, Ltd. The asset purchase agreement closing is contingent
upon regulatory approval from the British Columbia Racing Authority.

stock.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
GENERAL
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
our consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended
December 31, 1999 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. The discussion
of results, causes and trends should not be construed to imply any conclusion
that such results or trends will necessarily continue in the future.
OVERVIEW
Our initial focus after acquiring Churchill Resources, Inc. was to develop
a management team and a corporate identity. Business offices were leased in Las
Vegas, Nevada and management was secured, including a Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer who were knowledgeable in the gaming and horse
racing industries.
We also focused on the development of what was to be our core business,
horse racing and gaming. To that end we entered into an agreement to purchase
the Fraser Downs Raceway assets in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. We also
signed a letter of intent to purchase the Sandown Raceway assets on Vancouver
Island, British Columbia.
We, since our inception, have incurred net losses of $3,206,398. We may be
unable to continue in existence unless we are able to arrange financing to fund
our acquisitions and our new business strategy. We have not yet generated any
revenues and are still considered in the development stage.
PLAN OF OPERATION
In August 2000, we changed our corporate focus from that of acquiring
gaming and horse racing establishments to acquiring telecommunication companies.
On August 10, 2000 we entered into a Stock Transfer and Exchange Agreement with
Sophisticated Communication, Inc. ("SCI"). As a result of this acquisition, we
have reorganized the board of directors and management team to focus on the
telecommunications industry. This reorganization resulted in the removal of
certain board members and our recently hired Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer. We have also withdrawn our agreements to purchase Fraser
Downs Raceway and Sandowns Raceway.
To acquire SCI, we will issued 7,000,000 shares of our common stock to the
former shareholder of SCI which represents approximately 40% of our issued and
outstanding common stock. SCI is a telecommunications company based in Florida
that distributes prepaid calling cards in 42 states through approximately 50,000
locations. Cards are sold in increments of $5, $10 and $20.
