NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization - Holmes Microsystems, Inc. (the Company) was organized under the
laws of the State of Texas on January 20, 1988, under the name of Blackwing
Corporation. On April 4, 1989, Blackwing Corporation, a publicly held
corporation, acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of a company
known as Surface Tech, Inc., which was originally known as Holmes
Microsystems, Inc. The transaction had been accounted for as a
recapitalization of Holmes Microsystems, Inc. in a manner similar to a reverse
purchase. Accordingly, Holmes Microsystems, Inc. has been treated as the
surviving entity. As part of this transaction, Blackwing Corporation changed
its name to Holmes Microsystems Inc. and the original Holmes Microsystems
Inc., which was then a wholly owned subsidiary, was dissolved.
Until the fiscal year ended January 31, 1994, the Company had been engaged in
the sale of modems which provide data and facsimile capabilities for portable
computers. The Company had used the trade name "Fax Em" as an overall
description of its products. As of the year ended January 31, 1994, the
Company ceased all sales and operations and became totally inactive. The
Company is considered to have re-entered into a new development stage on
February 1, 1994.
Condensed Financial Statements - The accompanying financial statements have
been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at
July 31, 2000 and 1999 and for the periods then ended have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's January 31, 2000
audited financial statements. The results of operations for the periods ended
July 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the
full year.
Development Stage - The Company is considered a development stage company as
defined in SFAS no. 7.
Loss Per Share - The computation of loss per share of common stock is based on
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods
presented, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
128, "Earnings Per Share" [See Note 7].
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the
Company considers all highly liquid debt investments purchased with a maturity
of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles required management to make
estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated
by management.

Activities - deferral of the effective date of FASB statement No. 133 ( an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 133.)," were recently issued. SFAS No. 132,
133, 134, 135, 136 and 137 have no current applicability to the Company or
their effect on the financial statements would not have been significant.
Restatement - The financial statements have been restated for all periods
presented to reflect a 1 for 100 reverse stock split effective June 25, 1999
(See Note 5).
NOTE 2 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Management believes that the Company is not liable for any existing
liabilities related to its former operations, as the amounts were assumed by
the Company's president for stock (approximately $27,000 remain outstanding as
of the date of the financial statements) [See Note 5]. At January 31, 2000
there is the possibility that creditors and others seeking relief, which if
not paid by the Company's president, may cause the Company to be included in
claims and or lawsuits. The Company is not currently named nor is it aware of
any such claims or suits against the Company. No amounts have been reflected
or accrued in these financial statements for any contingent liability.
NOTE 3 - INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes". FASB
109 requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset/liability equal
to the expected future tax benefit/expense of temporary reporting differences
between book and tax accounting methods and any available operating loss or
tax credit carryforwards. At July 31, 2000, the Company has available unused
operating loss carryforwards of approximately $35,000, which may be applied
against future taxable income and which expire in various years through 2020.
The amount of and ultimate realization of the benefits from the operating loss
carryforwards for income tax purposes is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws
in effect, the future earnings of the Company, and other future events, the
effects of which cannot be determined. Because of the uncertainty surrounding
the realization of the loss carryforwards the Company has established a
valuation allowance equal to the tax effect of the loss carryforwards and,
therefore, no deferred tax asset has been recognized in the financial
statements for the loss carryforwards. The net deferred tax assets are
approximately $11,900 as of July 31, 2000 with an offsetting valuation
allowance at each year end of the same amount, resulting in a change of $1,100
in the valuation allowance during the period ending July 31, 2000.

Change in Management - During the year ended January 31, 2000, the Company had
a change in the officers and Board of Directors of the Company.

preferred stock, $.001 par value. At July 31, 2000 there are 3,750 shares
issued and outstanding. The Company has also authorized 5,000 shares of
Series B preferred stock. At July 31, 2000 there are no shares issued or
outstanding.
During January 2000, a shareholder of the company contributed 3,750 shares
Series A preferred stock back to the Company. The shares were immediately
cancelled.
Common Stock Split - During the year ended January 31, 2000 the Company
completed a 1 for 100 reverse common stock split. An additional 59 common
shares were issued as fractional shares, due to rounding up to the next whole
share. These financial statements have been retro-actively re-stated to
reflect the change.

common stock in exchange for 840 shares of series B preferred stock.

NOTE 6 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of
the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has no on-going
operations and has incurred losses since its inception. Further, the Company
has current liabilities in excess of assets and has no working capital to pay
its expenses. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the
Company to continue as a going concern. In this regard, management is
proposing to raise any necessary additional funds not provided by operations
through loans or through sales of its common stock or through a possible
business combination with another company. There is no assurance that the
Company will be successful in raising this additional capital or achieving
profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
NOTE 7 - EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
The following data show the amounts used in computing income (loss) per share
and the effect on income and the weighted average number of shares of dilutive
potential common stock for the three and six months ended July 31, 2000 and

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
The Company had no revenues from operations during the fiscal year ended
January 31, 2000, or during the first six months ended July 31, 2000.
Management of the Company is in the process of settling all of the
outstanding liabilities of the Company and attempting to repurchase or convert
the outstanding preferred shares. When current management took control of the
Company in December 1996, Mr. Eardley began the process of attempting to
settle the outstanding obligations and convert or repurchase the outstanding
preferred stock. At the commencement of last year he agreed to assume all of
the outstanding judgements and promissory notes and attempt to settle these
individually using his own funds. In September 1999, this agreement was
memorialized in writing and Mr. Eardley agreed, subject to shareholder
approval, to accept 610,711 post 100-for-1 reverse split shares as
consideration for such assumption.
In connection with attempting to locate a new business venture, the
Company reverse split the outstanding common stock at the rate of one share
for each 100 shares outstanding. The reverse split was effective December 29,
1999. The Company now intends to take advantage of any reasonable business
proposal presented which management believes will provide the Company and its
stockholders with a viable business opportunity.
The Company has no funds with which to pursue a new business venture.
The president of the Company has offered to advance an undetermined amount of
funds for the Company to seek and locate a potential merger or acquisition
candidate, and to postpone repayment of such advances until a new business
venture is acquired. In addition, he has negotiated with counsel to perform
legal services for the Company and to postpone payment for such services until
a merger or acquisition transaction is completed. Management anticipates that
it will negotiate with the owners of the new business venture to repay the
advances from him and to pay the legal costs incurred by the Company through
the consummation of an acquisition or merger. Mr. Eardley estimates that he
will be able to advance sufficient funds to the Company to meet the Company's
cash needs until a transaction with a new business venture can be consummated,
but the amount of such funds will be contingent upon the costs of locating and
consummating a transaction with a new business venture, which costs are
impossible to estimate. If the funds advanced by the president are
insufficient to locate a suitable business opportunity, he may seek additional
advances on behalf of the Company from Mr. Howard M. Oveson, a principal
shareholder of the Company. There is presently no agreement or specific
arrangement with Mr. Oveson to provide such additional funds and there is no
assurance that such funds would be available. The Company may also seek
equity financing if additional funds are necessary through the sale of shares
of its common stock. It is very unlikely that traditional forms of financing,
such as bank loans, would be available to the Company.
The investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation,
drafting, and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents, and
other instruments will require substantial management time and attention and
will require the Company to incur costs for payment of accountants,
attorneys, and others. If a decision is made not to participate in or
complete the acquisition of a specific business opportunity, the costs
incurred in a related investigation will not be recoverable. Further, even
if an agreement is reached for the participation in a specific business
opportunity by way of investment or otherwise, the failure to consummate the
particular transaction may result in the loss to the Company of all related
costs incurred.
Currently, management is not able to determine the time or resources that
will be necessary to locate and acquire or merge with a business prospect.
There is no assurance that the Company will be able to acquire an interest in
any such prospects, products, or opportunities that may exist or that any
activity of the Company, regardless of the completion of any transaction, will
be profitable. If and when the Company locates a business opportunity,
management of the Company will give consideration to the dollar amount of that
entity's profitable operations and the adequacy of its working capital in
determining the terms and conditions under which the Company would consummate
such an acquisition. Potential business opportunities, no matter which form
they may take, will most likely result in substantial dilution for the
Company's shareholders due to the likely issuance of stock to acquire such an
opportunity. If management fails to locate and complete a transaction with a
merger candidate, it is likely that current management would resign and that
the Company would eventually be dissolved by the State of Texas.
