CHADMOORE WIRELESS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Condensed Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2005
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Chadmoore Wireless Group, Inc. ("Chadmoore") was a holder of frequencies in the
United States in the 800 megahertz band for commercial specialized mobile radio
service.
On January 28, 2002, holders of Chadmoore common stock approved the asset sale
to Nextel Communications, Inc. ("Nextel"), the dissolution of Chadmoore and a
Plan of Liquidation (the "Plan"). On February 8, 2002, Chadmoore closed the sale
of substantially all of its assets to Nextel for $130 million in cash. Net
proceeds to Chadmoore were approximately $108 million after the payoff of
Barclays Bank debt. On February 22, 2002, Chadmoore filed its Articles of
Dissolution, closed its stock transfer record book, de-listed its shares from
the over-the-counter bulletin board and began an orderly wind-up of its business
operations. The key features of the Plan are
o the conclusion of all business activities, other than those related to
the execution of the Plan
o the sale or disposal of all of Chadmoore's non-cash assets
o the establishment of reasonable reserves to be sufficient to satisfy
the liabilities, expenses and obligations of Chadmoore not otherwise
paid, provided for or discharged
o the periodic payment of per share liquidating distributions to
shareholders; and
o the authorization of the filing of a Certificate of Dissolution with
the State of Colorado.
As a result of the adoption of the Plan, Chadmoore adopted the liquidation basis
of accounting effective January 29, 2002. This basis of accounting is considered
appropriate when, among other things, liquidation of a company is probable and
the net realizable value of assets are reasonably determinable. Under this basis
of accounting, assets are valued at their estimated net realizable value, and
liabilities are stated at their estimated settlement amounts. The ongoing
application of the liquidation basis of accounting requires management to make
significant estimates and judgments. The amount and timing of future liquidating
distributions will depend upon a variety of factors including, but not limited
to, the ultimate settlement amounts of Chadmoore's liabilities and obligations,
actual costs incurred in connection with carrying out the Plan including
administrative costs during the liquidation period, and the time frame it takes
to complete the liquidation.
The accompanying financial statements, notes and discussions should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, related notes and
discussions contained in Chadmoore's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended December 31, 2004.
The interim financial information contained herein is unaudited; however, in the
opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of
such financial information on a liquidation basis have been included.
6
NOTE 2 - LIQUIDATION BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
Immediately following the sale of substantially all of its assets on February 8,
2002, Chadmoore began an orderly wind-down of its operations. Accordingly,
management has presented its financial statements on the liquidation basis of
accounting.
The preparation of financial statements on the liquidation basis of accounting
requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the
net reliability of assets and estimated costs to be incurred during the
liquidation period and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements. These estimates are imprecise and subject to
change, among other things, the estimates may be based on assumption about
future conditions, transactions, or events whose outcome is uncertain. It is
likely, therefore, that the actual outcome and settlement of assets and
liabilities through completion of the Plan will differ from management's
estimates, and those differences may be significant.
ESTIMATED VALUES OF ASSETS OF THE COMPANY
The estimated assets of Chadmoore that are set forth in the March 31, 2005
"Consolidated Statement of Net Assets in Liquidation" have been presented on the
following basis:
(a) Chadmoore classifies as cash and cash equivalents amounts on
deposit in banks and cash invested temporarily in various
instruments, with maturities of three months or less at time of
purchase. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at fair value.
Generally, cash balances held in financial institutions may be in
excess of federally insured amounts.
(b) Investment in debt securities with maturities prior to February,
2007 are carried at par value with an accrual in future estimated
income for expected earnings to the total settlement amount.
Management intends to hold these securities until their maturity
due dates. Those debt securities with maturities after February,
2007 are carried at market value with any periodic unrealized gain
or loss recorded as an adjustment in the Statement of Changes in
Net Assets in Liquidation.
(c) Estimated future interest income was estimated by management based
upon future expected cash flows. Actual interest income will
likely differ from management's current estimate.
(d) Other assets, net, represent primarily prepayments of future
operating costs.
(e) Other receivables, net, are carried at their expected collectible
amounts and pertains, primarily, to funds held by Nextel to offset
any potential liabilities that might occur from any unknown or
unanticipated unpaid state taxes. Management is working with
counsel to obtain tax certificates of good standing in about 12
remaining states in which Chadmoore operated. Though a somewhat
lengthy and detailed process, management believes it will collect
substantially all of the funds held by Nextel.
7
ESTIMATED LIABILITIES OF THE COMPANY
The estimated liabilities of Chadmoore that are set forth in the March 31, 2005
"Consolidated Statement of Net Assets in Liquidation" has been presented on the
following basis:
(a) Notes payable represent non-interest bearing amounts owed in
connection with license commissions, the purchase of assets and
the purchase of licenses from licensees and are recorded at their
estimated settlement amounts.
(b) Accounts payable and accrued liabilities include all amounts that
remain unpaid for liquidation activities and remaining partnership
operations.
(c) Chadmoore recorded amounts for estimated future operating costs
during liquidation and for settlement reserves on January 29,
2002, when the Company adopted the liquidation basis of
accounting. The table presented below summarizes the estimated
amounts as of December 31, 2004 and changes in estimates and, the
actual costs that have been incurred and paid during the period
from January 1, 2005 through March 31, 2005. During the quarter
ended March 31, 2005, Chadmoore recorded a change in estimate of
$37,000 to its estimated expenses for insurance, utilities and
facility expenses to reflect anticipated expenses associated with
the administration of funds held in escrow for settlement of the
Goodman/Chan liabilities.

================ ================ ============= ==============
In view of the expected duration of the liquidation period until
February 22, 2007, and the provision in Colorado law that
Chadmoore maintain reserves sufficient to allow for the payment of
all its liabilities and obligations, including all known and
unknown contingent claims, Chadmoore established a settlement
reserve upon the adoption of liquidation basis accounting on
January 29, 2002. The amount of the settlement reserve is $8.0
million at March 31, 2005.
The majority of this general reserve at March 31, 2005, $7.0
million, relates to contingencies involving the resolution of
various federal taxation issues. Other matters covered by this
reserve include existing litigation and claims, settlement of
8
existing liabilities, and a general reserve for currently
unidentified contingencies and unasserted claims. This reserve has
been established for matters for which there is insufficient
information upon which management can reasonably estimate a
settlement amount, or where the ultimate settlement amount will be
based on future events which management cannot reasonably predict
at this time. The outcome of these contingencies may involve
litigation, the ultimate outcome of which cannot be determined at
this time. Accordingly, management believes the range of possible
estimated settlements is from $0 to $7 million.
As a result of the uncertainty regarding the estimates associated
with the general contingency reserve, it is likely that the actual
outcome of the resolution of these contingencies will differ from
management's estimates at this time, and those differences may be
significant. In addition, since the resolution of these matters
will inevitably involve procedural, and probably judicial
proceedings, it is likely that the resolution of the majority of
these contingencies will not occur in the near term. As more
information becomes available to management, and as future
resolution of events regarding these contingencies occur,
management will adjust the general contingency reserve
appropriately, if needed. See Note 3 - Commitments and
Contingencies for further discussion.
The amount and timing of future liquidating distributions will
depend upon a variety of factors including, but not limited to,
the actual proceeds from the realization of Chadmoore's assets,
the ultimate settlement amounts of Chadmoore's liabilities and
obligations, actual costs incurred in connection with carrying out
the Plan, including salaries, administrative and operating costs
during the liquidation period, resolution of uncertainties and
litigation, and the timing of the liquidation and dissolution. A
summary of significant estimates and judgments utilized in
preparation of the March 31, 2005 consolidated financial
statements on a liquidation basis follows:
Estimated future interest income
At March 31, 2005, the estimated value of future interest income
represented about 7.8% of Chadmoore's estimated net assets in
liquidation. During 2005, management invested excess cash amounts in
debt securities with varying maturities. The estimated future interest
income of $723,000 on Chadmoore's cash holdings and investment in debt
securities represents management's estimate of future interest earnings
based on current (3.5% annual rate at April 1, 2005) market rates of
interest over the remaining liquidation period.
NOTE 3 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In late September, 2002, Chadmoore received a letter from Cindy Ashcroft,
principal of Ashcroft ITV ("Ashcroft") seeking payment for licenses which
Ashcroft purports were transferred to
9
Chadmoore. Ashcroft requested, through its letter, a payment in excess of $4
million from Chadmoore for the subject licenses, or alternatively a further
explanation from Chadmoore as to why such a payment would not be forthcoming.
Chadmoore has reviewed its files and Chadmoore management, along with outside
counsel, has analyzed the matter at considerable length. Upon review of the
evidence in the light most favorable to Ashcroft, Chadmoore believes that it
could potentially be liable to Ashcroft for approximately $23,750 in license
payments. On the other hand, Chadmoore believes it has a valid counterclaim for
approximately $89,000 against Ashcroft for interim management fees earned while
the Company managed and operated Ashcroft's licensed facilities in order to keep
them in compliance with FCC requirements. In late 2001, Chadmoore suggested to
Ms. Ashcroft that a direct meeting between the parties take place as promptly as
practicable to resolve this matter. At this time, management has received no
reply from Ms. Ashcroft. While Chadmoore cannot forecast the ultimate outcome of
this matter, based on management's review of the files and Ashcroft's request,
as well as internal conferences and conferences with outside counsel regarding
this matter, the Company believes that the possibility that this matter will
have a substantial adverse impact on the Company is remote.
On March 13, 2003, American Tower Corporation ("American Tower") submitted to
Chadmoore a notice of default under several license agreements, which existed
earlier between American Tower and Chadmoore. American Tower sought immediate
payment of an outstanding balance of approximately $234,000. On March 19, 2003,
Chadmoore formally responded to American Tower's notice, rejected its demand,
and indicated that Chadmoore believes it has no legal duty to continue to make
any payments to American Tower on the basis of the agreements. Subsequently, on
May 23, 2003, American Tower filed suit in the Clark County Nevada District
Court seeking redress for its claims of breach of contract, without specifying
the damages sought. Chadmoore timely filed its answer on June 16, 2003 denying
American Tower's claims. The parties have exchanged pre-trial documentation and
witness lists for discovery purposes. Discovery is currently ongoing. A jury
trial is set for October 2005. Currently, management cannot forecast the actual
outcome of this item, nor can it provide a timetable for when this matter will
be concluded.
NOTE 4- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On January 15, 2003, Chadmoore entered into a two-year sublease with a limited
liability company owned by Robert W. Moore. The two-year sublease expired on
January 14, 2005, and was renewed for a six-month period, with an option for an
additional two six-month extensions. Under the terms of the sub-lease, Chadmoore
will continue to co-use with one other tenant approximately 2,290 total square
feet of rentable floor area at a base rent of $1,545 per month, plus one half of
utilities and other normal and ordinary expenses.
During February 2004, the employment agreements for Robert W. Moore, and Stephen
K. Radusch were amended as the resolution of Chadmoore's outstanding liabilities
and the sale of partnership assets has taken longer than anticipated.
Additionally, Chadmoore remains subject to the reporting requirements of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, the board of
10
directors determined that the above employees' services would be needed for
longer than the initial employment agreements contemplated.
The employment agreements for Messrs. Moore and Radusch were amended so that
each will continue as an executive officer of Chadmoore and continue to receive
75% of his annual salary until at least 30 days after the Securities and
Exchange Commission grants relief from making filings under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, unless the agreement is earlier terminated by either
party.
Once relief is granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, this
employment agreement for Messrs. Moore and Radusch will be automatically
extended for a one-year period at the annual rate of $90,000. Upon expiration of
this one year term, the employment agreements will be automatically extended
until February 22, 2007, unless terminated by either party. During this final
stage of employment, Mr. Moore and Mr. Radusch will be paid $6,500 and $6,000
per month, respectively.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND STATUS
OF LIQUIDATION
Statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking
statements as that term is defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. These statements contain words such as "intends", "plan", "future",
"will", "anticipates", and "believes" and include statements regarding
Chadmoore's dissolution and liquidation. Although Chadmoore believes that the
expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, the
forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual results to differ from those projected. Chadmoore cautions
investors that any forward-looking statements made by Chadmoore are not
guarantees of future performance and that actual results may differ materially
from those in the forward-looking statements. See Chadmoore's annual report on
Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2004.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS FOR DISSOLUTION
Chadmoore is continuing to wind up its affairs as quickly and as efficiently as
possible to maximize the liquidating distributions to all shareholders.
Chadmoore's goal is to minimize the length of time necessary to resolve or
satisfy its known liabilities while also minimizing the risks to shareholders by
conserving corporate assets.
In order to reduce liquidation costs, Chadmoore's full-time staff has been
reduced to two remaining officers who will handle all remaining liquidation
issues. Under Colorado law, Chadmoore will remain in existence as a
non-operating entity for five years from February 22, 2002 and will maintain
liquid assets to cover any remaining liabilities and pay operating costs during
the dissolution period. During the dissolution period, Chadmoore will attempt to
convert its remaining assets to cash and settle its liabilities as expeditiously
as possible.
11
STATUS OF LIQUIDATION
On February 8, 2002, Chadmoore sold substantially all of its assets to Nextel
Communications, Inc. ("Nextel") for $130 million in cash resulting in a gain of
about $88 million, terminated its operations and began an orderly liquidation of
Chadmoore, including laying off most of its employees. Chadmoore adopted the
liquidation basis of accounting effective January 29, 2002, whereby assets are
recorded at their estimated net realizable values, liabilities are recorded at
their estimated settlement amounts and a reserve has been provided for potential
claims. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, Chadmoore recorded a change in
estimate of $37,000 to its estimated expenses for insurance, utilities, and
facility expenses to reflect anticipated expenses associated with the
administration of funds held in escrow for settlement of the Goodman/Chan
liabilities. In addition, Chadmoore recorded a change in the estimated value of
future interest income of $242,000 to reflect rising interest rates and its
investment in debt securities.
The valuation of assets and liabilities requires many estimates and assumptions
by management and actual values may vary greatly from estimates. The majority of
Chadmoore's assets have been liquidated and the amounts and timing of future
liquidating distributions will depend upon a variety of factors including, but
not limited to, the ultimate settlement amounts of Chadmoore's liabilities and
obligations, actual cost incurred in connection with carrying out the Plan
including administrative costs during the liquidation period, and the time frame
it takes to complete the liquidation.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Chadmoore's primary objectives are to liquidate its assets in the shortest time
period possible while realizing the maximum values for these assets and to
settle all claims on terms most favorable to Chadmoore. The liquidation is
expected to be concluded prior to the fifth anniversary of the filing of the
Certificate of Dissolution in Colorado by a final liquidating distribution
directly to shareholders of record. The initial cash distribution to
shareholders under the Plan was made on July 12, 2002 in the aggregate amount of
$22.7 million, or about $.3323 per equivalent share. On February 28, 2003,
Chadmoore made a second distribution of cash to shareholders in the aggregate
amount of $4.2 million, or $.0620 per equivalent share, was initiated. On
December 5, 2003, a third distribution of cash in the aggregate amount of $7
million, or $.1014 per share, was made to shareholders of record. As of May 12,
2005, Chadmoore has distributed an aggregate of about $34 million, or $.4957 per
equivalent share. Remaining net assets available for distribution to
shareholders as of March 31, 2005, assuming assets are realized and liabilities
are settled at their estimated amounts, are currently estimated to be about $5.7
million.
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
12
Chadmoore, under the supervision and with the participation of its management,
including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out
an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Chadmoore's
disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2005 (the "Evaluation Date").
Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that Chadmoore's disclosure controls
and procedures were effective for purposes of recording, processing, summarizing
and timely reporting material information required to be disclosed in reports
that it files under the Exchange Act.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during our quarter ended March 31, 2005 that has materially affected or
is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
13
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In late September, 2002, Chadmoore received a letter from Cindy Ashcroft,
principal of Ashcroft ITV ("Ashcroft") seeking payment for licenses which
Ashcroft purports were transferred to Chadmoore. Ashcroft requested, through its
letter, a payment in excess of $4 million from Chadmoore for the subject
licenses, or alternatively a further explanation from the Company as to why such
a payment would not be forthcoming. Chadmoore has reviewed its files and
Chadmoore management, along with outside counsel, has analyzed the matter at
considerable length. Upon review of the evidence in the light most favorable to
Ashcroft, Chadmoore believes that it could potentially be liable to Ashcroft for
approximately $23,750 in license payments. On the other hand, the Company
believes it has a valid counterclaim for approximately $89,000 against Ashcroft
for interim management fees earned while the Company managed and operated
Ashcroft's licensed facilities in order to keep them in compliance with FCC
requirements. Chadmoore has not recorded, however, an asset on its books for the
potential counterclaim against Ashcroft. In late 2001, the Company suggested to
Ms. Ashcroft that a direct meeting between the parties take place as promptly as
practicable to resolve this matter. At this time, management has received no
reply from Ms. Ashcroft. While Chadmoore cannot forecast the ultimate outcome of
this matter, based on management's review of the files and Ashcroft's request,
as well as internal conferences and conferences with outside counsel regarding
this matter, the Company believes that the possibility that this matter will
have a substantial adverse impact on the Company is remote.
On March 13, 2003, American Tower Corporation ("American Tower") submitted to
Chadmoore a notice of default under several license agreements, which existed
earlier between American Tower and Chadmoore. American Tower sought immediate
payment of an outstanding balance of approximately $234,000. On March 19, 2003,
Chadmoore formally responded to American Tower's notice, rejected its demand,
and indicated that Chadmoore believes it has no legal duty to continue to make
any payments to American Tower on the basis of the agreements. Subsequently, on
May 23, 2003, American Tower filed suit in the Clark County Nevada District
Court seeking redress for its claims of breach of contract, without specifying
the damages sought. Chadmoore timely filed its answer on June 16, 2003 denying
American Tower's claims. The parties have exchanged pre-trial documentation and
witness lists for discovery purposes. Discovery is currently ongoing. A jury
trial is set for the October, 2005. Currently, management cannot forecast the
actual outcome of this item, nor can it provide a timetable for when this matter
will be concluded.
Chadmoore may also be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that may
arise during liquidation. Chadmoore currently believes that any such proceedings
and potential claims will not have a material adverse impact on Chadmoore's
estimate of net assets in liquidation. Chadmoore has, however, included in its
settlement reserve an accrual, at the lower end of the range, for the matters
discussed above.
