This report should be read in its entirety. No one section of the report deals with all aspects of the subject matter. ii PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS. GENERAL AutoLend Group, Inc. (the "Company") is a holding company headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The Company is currently winding down two businesses. Historically the Company primarily operates through its subsidiaries. 1. AutoLend Corporation maintained a residual portfolio of sub-prime consumer used-car loan contracts purchased from used-car dealers (also referred to as installment contracts receivable, or the "Loans"). AutoLend Corporation ceased purchasing these Loans in December 1995. This portfolio consisted entirely of inactive loans that had been more than six months in arrears and had been written off. On April 1, 2000, AutoLend Corporation adopted a plan to sell the Loan portfolio and has treated this portfolio as a discontinued operation since that date. On April 4, 2001 the Loan portfolio was sold to an unrelated third party for $95,000. 2. American Life Resources Group, Inc., and LBNM, Inc. maintain portfolios of unmatured life insurance policies purchased from persons with life-threatening illnesses, a business generically referred to as viatical settlements (the "Policies"). This subsidiary ceased purchasing Policies in September 1994. The four remaining Policies have an aggregate face value of approximately $356,000 and a net book value of $50,000 on March 31, 2002. NOTE: THE COMPANY IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH THE WEBSITE WWW.AUTOLEND.COM, NOR IS THE COMPANY AFFILIATED WITH THE MIAMI-BASED BUSINESS, AUTOLEND IAP (WHICH IS OWNED BY AUCTION FINANCE GROUP, INC.) BANKRUPTCY The Company sought protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on September 22, 1997. Between September 22, 1997 and January 13, 2000, the Company concentrated its efforts on addressing the legal and financial problems that caused the Company to file for protection under Chapter 11. The Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Company's creditor-approved Plan of Reorganization, which became effective March 5, 1999, at which time the Company attained a positive net equity (in conjunction with the adoption of fresh start accounting), and was no longer classified as a "debtor-in-possession." On January 13, 2000, the Bankruptcy Court entered its final decree, thereby closing the Company's Chapter 11 case. On January 13, 2000, in connection with the resolution of the bankruptcy, unsecured creditors received payments for 100 percent of their allowed claims. Likewise, qualified former Debenture holders have received, in aggregate, $2.9 million in cash payments, as well as stock in the reorganized Company, and $609,000 (undiscounted) uncollateralized, non-interest-bearing note obligations. 1 These note obligations are payable in five equal annual installments of $121,800. However, the first, second, and third annual payments of $122,000 scheduled for March 5, 2000, March 5, 2001, and March 5, 2002, respectively have not yet been made. The Company cannot make those payments. GOING CONCERN At March 31, 2002, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $400, and a negative net equity of $644,000. The equity is exclusive of any remaining amounts due pursuant to the Albuquerque office lease obligation, which approximated $243,000 at March 31, 2002. The Company believes that it presently has insufficient cash necessary to meet its daily operating requirements without regard to its notes payable obligations, through to fiscal year ending March 31, 2003. The Company is exploring various strategic options and financial opportunities including the possibility of a merger with Prinova Capital Group, Inc. ("Prinova Inc."). Prinova Inc. is a New Mexico corporation, which is a private, closely-held financial services company, headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Prinova Inc. has no past or present ties or affiliations to any shareholder, director, or officer of the Company prior to October 2000. From October 2000 to January 29, 2002, Mr. Vincent Garcia, the majority owner of Prinova Inc., was a member of the Company's Board of Directors. Due to the legal opinion of the Company's former counsel, the first annual $122,000 notes payable payments due in March 2000, were not made as originally scheduled, and as of the date of this filing, have not been made. Additionally, the second and third annual $122,000 payments due in March 2002, and 2001 have also not been made as of the date of the filing. To date, there have been no demands from the debenture holders. The Company cannot make these payments. CHANGE IN CONTROL Effective October 12, 2000, a block of 634,028 shares of the Company's common stock, equal to approximately 58% of the total shares outstanding, changed hands in a private sale between two third parties. The buyer and new majority owner of the Company is Prinova Capital Group LLC ("Prinova LLC"). Prinova LLC is a separate entity from Prinova Inc., though under the same general ownership and control as Prinova Inc.

He has attended additional classes from the University of Denver and Hebrew Union College in Los Angeles, California. After the appointment of Mr. Reynolds, Mr. Baca, and Mr. Gellert to the Board of Directors, Mr. John Emery tendered his resignation as an officer and the Chairman and Secretary of the Board of Directors and acting President of the company. Mr. Vincent Garcia tendered his resignation as a member of the Board of Directors for the Company and in all other capacities, which the Board accepted. EMPLOYEES As of June 21, 2002, the Company and its subsidiaries had no employees. Accounting and management services are being contracted from Prinova Inc. 3 ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. During February 1999, the Company assumed the lease on its offices at 600 Central SW, Albuquerque, New Mexico pursuant to a legal settlement involving the return of funds to the Company. In January 2001, the Company renegotiated its lease. The lease terminates on December 31, 2003, and the lease payments are $7,000 per month for the first year and increase to $12,900 per month for the second year. Each January 1, the lease payments may be adjusted according to any changes in the Consumer Price Index. Additionally, as of February 1, 2001, the Company centered into a month-to-month sublease with Prinova Inc. for $3,250 per month. Rent expense for operating leases was approximately $90,000 for the fiscal year-ended March 31, 2002, as compared to rent expense of $115,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001. ITEM 3.

9 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. GENERAL The Company has been winding down its two businesses, one of which is classified as a discontinued operation (see below). During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 the Company sold the residual Loan portfolio. The Company continues to collect amounts due from the residual Policy portfolio. At March 31, 2002, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $400, and a negative net equity of $644,000. The equity is exclusive of any remaining amounts due pursuant to the Albuquerque office lease obligation, which approximated $243,000 at March 31, 2002. The Company believes that it presently has insufficient cash necessary to meet its daily operating requirements without regard to obligations currently due the debenture holders, through the fiscal year ending March 31, 2003. The Company is exploring various strategic options and financial opportunities including the possibility of a merger with Prinova Inc. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, compared to fiscal year ended March 31, 2001 The Company recorded a net loss of approximately $67,000 for the year ended March 31, 2002. Contributing to the net loss were general and administrative expenses of $222,000. Net revenues realized from viatical insurance Policies for the years ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001 were $8,000 and zero, respectfully. The Company generally ceased purchasing Policies after September 1994. Future net revenues from the remaining portfolio of five Policies will be irregular, depending primarily upon the timing of mortality of the insured. Net viatical revenues from the Policies are determined by subtracting the Policy cost from the relevant face value after a Policy "matures" (becomes payable by the insurance company). As of April 1, 2000, the used car loan portion of the Company's business (the "Loans") had been classified as a discontinued operation. Since that date, Loan collections are no longer recorded as Loan revenues or Loan loss recoveries, and likewise, collection expenses are no longer recorded as part of general and administrative expenses; instead, the total net result of any remaining Loan activity were recorded as either a net income or loss from discontinued operations. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 these loans ere sold resulting in a gain of $95,000. During the year ended March 31, 2001, the Company recognized $57,000 of revenues from this discontinued operation. General and administrative expenses were $222,000 during the year ended March 31, 2002, which represented a reduction of $494,000, compared to the $716,000 expended during the year ended March 31, 2001. This decrease resulted from a combination of offsetting factors, a $237,000 reduction in salary expense and related payroll expenses approximately $107,000 reduction in general administrative expenses (insurance, supplies, licenses, taxes, rent and supplies), and a $150,000 reduction in legal and accounting fees. The $222,000 expended during the year-ended March 31, 2002 consisted primarily of $21,000 in salaries, payroll taxes, and benefits, $77,000 in legal and accounting fees and $90,000 in rent. 10 Operating losses for the year ended March 31, 2002, were $214,000, compared to operating losses of $834,000 for the year ended March 31, 2001. In total, the $620,000 decrease in operating losses were primarily due to a reduction in general and administrative expenses (as noted above), offset by the loss on the termination agreement with Nunzio P. DeSantis, the Company's former CEO, of approximately $117,000, which was primarily due to the cancellation of an outstanding receivable due under the adversary settlement which was offset in the termination agreement with a cancellation of DeSantis' claim for reimbursement of legal expenses. The impact of non-operating income for the year ended March 31, 2002, was a net $51,000, compared to $13,000 for the year ended March 31, 2001. This results in a net increase in non- operating income of approximately $38,000, which difference is due to a confluence of one-time events, as follows. The $51,000 of non-operating income for the current period was primarily due to $42,000 of rental income related to subleasing the Company's office space, $21,000 gain from the settlement of the lawsuit with the New Mexico Gaming Control Board, and $6,000 gain from investment income. This income was offset by $20,000 from the amortization of the discount on the notes payable. The $13,000 non-operating income for the year ended March 31, 2001 was primarily due to the recapture of $16,000 related to a purchased viatical insurance policy written off in the prior year, $6,000 in rental income related to subleasing the Company's office space, $5,000 of interest income, and a $10,000 gain related to the receipt of rights to a security deposit related to the ITB settlement, offset by the amortization of the discount on the notes payable of $26,000. Fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, compared to fiscal year ended March 31, 2000 The Company recorded a net loss of $764,000 for the year ended March 31, 2001. Contributing to the net loss were general and administrative expenses of $716,000 and a $117,000 loss on the termination agreement with Nunzio P. DeSantis, the Company's former CEO. Net revenues realized from viatical insurance Policies in the year ended March 31, 2001, was zero, as compared to $5,000 in net viatical revenues in the year ended March 31, 2000. The Company generally ceased purchasing Policies after September 1994, and in May and July 1995, sold the majority of its portfolio. Future net revenues from the remaining portfolio of five Policies as of March 31, 2001 will be irregular, depending primarily upon the timing of mortality of the insured. Net viatical revenues from the Policies are determined by subtracting the Policy cost from the relevant face value after a Policy "matures" (becomes payable by the insurance company). As of April 1, 2000, the used car loan portion of the Company's business (the "Loans") has been classified as a discontinued operation. Since that date, Loan collections are no longer recorded as Loan revenues or Loan loss recoveries, and likewise, collection expenses are no longer recorded as part of general and administrative expenses; instead, the total net result of any remaining Loan activity are recorded as either a net income or loss from discontinued operations. Thus, there were no revenues from Loans recognized during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, compared to the $10,000 realized during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000. Similarly, there was no Loan loss recovery recognized for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, compared to a recovery of $274,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000 related to previously charged-off Loans. (The recoveries were the result of collections on old Loans, which had, in the past, been more than six months in arrears and had therefore been written off, in accordance with the Company's long-standing procedures.) The net result of discontinued (Loan) operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, was a net income of $57,000. 11 General and administrative expenses were $716,000 during the year ended March 31, 2001, which represented a reduction of $656,000, compared to the $1,372,000 expended during the year ended March 31, 2000. This decrease resulted from a combination of offsetting factors, a $420,000 reduction in salary expense and related payroll expenses approximately $300,000 reduction in general administrative expenses (insurance, supplies, licenses, taxes, rent and supplies), and approximately $100,000 reduction in legal and accounting fees. The $716,000 expended during the year-ended March 31, 2001 consisted primarily of $300,000 in salaries, payroll taxes, and benefits, $237,000 in legal and accounting fees and $115,000 in rent. Operating losses for the year ended March 31, 2001, were $833,000, compared to operating losses of $1,367,000 for the year ended March 31, 2000. In total, the $534,000 decrease in operating losses were primarily due to a reduction in general and administrative expenses (as noted above), offset by the absence of any operating revenue sources for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, and a loss on the termination agreement with Nunzio P. DeSantis, the Company's former CEO, of approximately $117,000, which was primarily due to the cancellation of an outstanding receivable due under the adversary settlement which was offset in the termination agreement with a cancellation of DeSantis' claim for reimbursement of legal expenses. The impact of non-operating income, court settlements and extraordinary items for the year ended March 31, 2001, was a net $13,000, compared to approximately $1.0 million for the year ended March 31, 2000. This results in a net decrease in non- operating income of $987,000, which difference is due to a confluence of one-time events, as follows. The $13,000 non-operating income for the current period was primarily due to the recapture of $16,000 related to a purchased viatical insurance policy written off in the prior year, $6,000 in rental income related to subleasing the Company's office space, $5,000 of interest income, and a $10,000 gain related to the receipt of rights to a security deposit related to the ITB settlement, offset by the amortization of the discount on the notes payable of $26,000. The $374,000 non-operating income for the prior period was primarily due to the $451,000 gain as a result of the settlement with Nunzio DeSantis, a cancellation of a $178,000 Florida tax claim, a $178,000 gain on a Debenture settlement, a viatical policy write-down recapture of $106,000, and interest income of $87,000. In addition to the above, for the year ended March 31, 2001, the Company incurred no reorganization costs related to the bankruptcy proceedings, compared to $190,000 in the prior year. The net effect of the foregoing was a net loss of $763,000 for the year ended March 31, 2001. The net loss for the same period last year was $366,000. The $763,000 loss for the year ended March 31, 2001 is due to a $117,000 loss on the termination agreement with Nunzio P. DeSantis, the Company's former CEO, and general and administrative expenses of $716,000. The $366,000 loss for the year ended March 31, 2000 was due primarily to an operating loss of $1,367,000 and reorganization costs of $189,000, partially offset by non-operating income of approximately $1.0 million. The net decrease in income of $398,000, as compared to the prior fiscal year, was attributable primarily to one-time events occurring in the current year as previously noted, and a reduction in general and administrative expenses. The net decrease in income was also due to one-time events occurring in the prior year including the $451,000 gain on settlement of adversary agreement and the cancellation of a $178,000 tax claim which was partially offset that year by a $189,000 spent on reorganization costs. 12 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's immediate viability as a going concern depends upon the successful installation of a new line of business and the attainment of profitability. Cash flow was a negative $12,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 as compared to a negative $360,000 and a negative $4,565,000 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. At March 31, 2002, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $400, and a negative net equity of $644,000. In comparison the Company had cash and cash equivalents or $13,000, and a negative net equity of $576,000 at March 31, 2001. The equity is exclusive of any remaining amounts due pursuant to the Albuquerque office lease obligation, which approximated $243,000 at March 31, 2002. The Company believes that it presently has insufficient cash necessary to meet its daily operating requirements without regard to obligations currently due the debenture holders, through the fiscal year ending March 31, 2003. The Company is not likely to be able to secure and install a new, profitable line of business in this time frame. Thus, the Company will likely have to either be acquired, merge, or liquidate. Without either an infusion of capital, and / or the sale or realization of assets for cash at greater than net book value, the Company may not be able to meet all its present obligations. The Company's portfolio of unmatured viatical insurance Policies totaled five at March 31, 2002, having a combined face value of $356,000 and a net book value of $50,000. The Company ceased purchasing Policies in September 1994. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, cash provided by investing activities was $95,000, which was primarily the result of the receipt of funds related to the gain from the sale of the loan portfolio. There was $28,000 cash provided by investing activities for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001 which was primarily the result of the receipt of funds related to the termination agreement of Nunzio P. Desantis, the Company's former CEO. There was no cash provided by financing activities for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002. Cash provided by financing activities for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001 was $80,000, which was primarily due to the proceeds received in conjunction with the stock issuance. In summary, the Company decreased its cash and cash equivalents by $12,000 during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, to a total of $400. The decrease was largely due to the net use of cash for operating activities and other business expenses. During the current fiscal year, the Company's net equity decreased, from a negative $576,000 at March 31, 2001, to a negative $644,000 at March 31, 2002, a decrease of approximately $68,000. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001, the Company suffered recurring losses from operations that has raised substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. As a result of the Company's economic condition and the legal opinion of the Company's former counsel, the first $121,000 notes payable payments were not made as originally scheduled, and as of the date of this filing, have not been made. Additionally, the second and third $121,000 notes payable payments were also not made as originally scheduled, and as of the date of this filing, have not been made. 13 ITEM 8.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements of AutoLend Group, Inc. as of March 31, 2001 were audited by other auditors whose report dated May 31, 2001, expressed an unqualified opinion on these statements. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AutoLend Group, Inc. as of March 31, 2002 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and as a result, its liquidity has been impaired. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. F-8 SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULE OF NON-CASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES: There were no non-cash investing or financing activities during the year ended March 31, 2002. During the year ended March 31, 2001, the following non-cash investing and financing activities occurred: The Company received furniture and fixtures with an estimated market value of $5,000, $27,500 in cash and recognized a $117,500 loss related to the cancellation of outstanding amounts due from a former officer as a result of the termination agreement with Nunzio P. DeSantis dated September 28, 2000. During the year ended March 31, 2000, the following non-cash investing and financing activities occurred: As the result of the settlement of the adversary claim against Nunzio DeSantis, the Company cancelled accrued payroll and expenses owed by the Company to Mr. DeSantis in the amount of $256,230 and cancelled $7,058 in accrued payroll taxes. The Company also acquired from Mr. DeSantis furniture and fixtures with an estimated market value of $37,752. Additionally, a receivable in the amount of $150,000 was recorded to account for the outstanding value of equity securities due to the Company by Mr. DeSantis; the transfer of these securities is to be completed by July 11, 2000. The net total of the above resulted in a gain on the adversary settlement of $451,040. At March 31, 2000, the Company had 78,678 shares of Common Stock issued or issuable, for which a related receivable of $78,678 was due from the transfer agent. The Company's former counsel determined that certain debenture claims reported at March 31, 1999 were unable to be substantiated by the respective claimants. As a result of the Company's relief from this obligation, the Company's accounts payable to debenture holders was reduced by $149,250, the notes payable to debenture holders was reduced by $12,567, and a corresponding extraordinary gain of $178,454 was recognized. Additionally, Common Stock and paid-in capital were reduced by $50 and $16,587 respectively. F-9 AUTOLEND GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2002, 2001, AND 2000 The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AutoLend Group, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Autolend Corporation, American Life Resources Group, Inc., and LB NM, Inc. (collectively, the "Company"). AutoLend Group, Inc. maintained a residual portfolio of sub-prime, consumer used-car loans (also referred to as installment contract receivables, or the "Loans") through its wholly owned subsidiary, AutoLend Corporation. On April 4, 2001 the loan portfolio was sold to an unrelated third party for $95,000. This activity had been accounted for as a discontinued operation since April 1, 2000. LB NM, Inc. and American Life Resources Group, Inc., maintain a residual portfolio of life insurance policies purchased from persons with life-threatening illnesses, a business generically referred to as viatical settlements (the "Policies"). Policies were no longer purchased after September 1994. For over three years, the Company's activities have been concentrated on resolving the recently concluded bankruptcy, which among other things, included the filing of a Registration Statement, which was made effective by the SEC on January 19, 2000. During the fiscal year ended 2001, the Company terminated its efforts to develop and obtain licensure as a distributor for a new gaming business as outlined in its Plan of Reorganization. (1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business (see Note 2). (b) Basis of Accounting and Consolidation Policy The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. F-10 (c) Revenue Recognition Purchased Insurance Policies - Revenue and cost of revenue are recognized upon the maturity of a policy (death of the insured). Unmatured Policies are carried, at estimated market value, as an investment asset. The cost of a Policy includes the initial purchase price, insurance premiums, and other direct expenditures paid by the Company for the purchase and maintenance of the Policy. Revenues are accounted for as "Gross Revenues" (i.e., before deduction of costs) and as "Net Revenues" (after deduction of costs). Net Revenues are combined with revenues from other business operations in calculating the Company's "Total Net Revenues." The ability to recognize matured policy revenue during the period in which a Policy matures depends on the Company's receiving notification of its maturity from a representative of the insured. In some instances, notification may not occur until significantly after the insured's death and after the consolidated financial statements have been finalized for the period in which the Policy matured. To the extent Policy maturities cannot be recorded in the period the Policy matures, the revenue and cost related to the maturity are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations after the maturity of the Policy. Allowance for Credit Losses - As of March 31, 2002 and 2001, management believes that the value reflected for the outstanding Policies is fully collectable, and has, accordingly, not provided for an allowance against these amounts. (d) Income Taxes The Company calculates income taxes using the asset and liability method prescribed by Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109 - Accounting for Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company, based on the weight of the available evidence, provides an offsetting valuation allowance against deferred tax assets to the extent it determines that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realizable. (e) Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company's financial instruments include cash, purchased Policies, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable. The fair values of these financial instruments have been determined using available market information and interest rates as of March 31, 2002. All of the Company's financial instruments are held for non-trading purposes. F-11 (f) Earnings per Share Primary earnings per share amounts are computed based on: the weighted average number of shares issuable and outstanding for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, which were 1,095,303; on the weighted average number of shares issuable and outstanding March 31, 2001, which were 1,093,950; on the weighted average number of shares issuable and outstanding March 31, 2000, which were 1,042,237. There were no Options or Warrants outstanding at March 31, 2002 and 2001. Fully diluted earnings per share amounts computed based on the weighted average number of shares issuable, subscribed for, and outstanding for 2002 and 2001 are not presented because they do not differ significantly from primary earnings per share, and they would be anti-dilutive. (g) Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements conforms with generally accepted accounting principles, and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure 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 estimates. (2) GOING CONCERN The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. Realization of a major portion of the assets is dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its future capital and financing requirements and the success of future operations. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, the Company suffered recurring losses from operations that has raised substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. As a result of the Company's economic condition and the legal opinion of the Company's former counsel, the first $0.1 million notes payable payments were not made as originally scheduled have not been made. Additionally, subsequent notes payable payments were not made as originally scheduled have not been made. The Company's immediate viability as a going concern depends upon the successful installation of a new line of business and the attainment of profitability. At March 31, 2002, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $400 and a negative net equity of $644,000. The equity is exclusive of any remaining amounts due pursuant to the Albuquerque office lease obligation, which approximated $243,000 at March 31, 2002. The Company believes that it presently has insufficient cash necessary to meet its daily operating requirements without regard to its notes payable obligations, through the fiscal year ending March 31, 2003. The Company is not likely to be able to secure and install a new, profitable line of business before it runs out of cash. Thus, the Company will likely have to be acquired, merge, or liquidate. Without either an infusion of capital, and / or the sale or realization of assets for cash at greater than net book value, the Company may not be able to meet all its present obligations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. F-12 The Company is exploring various strategic options and financial opportunities including the purchase of certain operating assets of Prinova Capital Group, Inc. Prinova Capital Group Inc. is a private, closely-held financial services company, headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico and has no past or present ties or affiliations to any recent or former shareholder, director, or officer of the Company. (3) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Transactions with Prinova Capital Group, LLC - Prinova Capital Group LLC ("Prinova LLC") is a New Mexico limited liability company which is a private, closely-held company, headquartered in New Mexico. Prinova LLC has no past or present ties or affiliations to any shareholder, director, or officer of the Company prior to October 2000. From October 2000 to January 29, 2002, Mr. Vincent Garcia, the majority owner of Prinova LLC, was a member of the Company's Board of Directors. Effective October 12, 2000, a block of 634,028 shares of the Company's common stock, equal to approximately 58% of the total shares outstanding, changed hands in a private sale between two third parties. Prinova LLC has also acquired a majority of the seller's rights under the 5-year, uncollateralized, non-interest bearing debt obligations of the Company having a face value of $412,500. Transactions with Prinova Capital Group, Inc. - Prinova Capital Group, Inc. ("Prinova Inc.") is a New Mexico private, closely-held corporation, headquartered in New Mexico. Prinova Inc. is a separate entity form Prinova LLC, though under the same general ownership and control as Prinova LLC. Prinova Inc. has no past or present ties or affiliations to any shareholder, director, or officer of the Company prior to October 2000. From October 2000 to January 29, 2002, Mr. Vincent Garcia, the majority owner of Prinova Inc, was a member of the Company's Board of Directors. Prinova Inc. subleases office space from the Company on a month-to-month basis for $3,250 per month. In November 2001 the Company entered into a debt arrangement with Prinova Inc. for a total of $75,000 that may be drawn on an as needed basis. The term of the note includes interest at 12% and is due on or before December 31, 2003. The note is secured by the first proceeds from the potential sale of the viatical settlements and the property and equipment of the company. During the year the Company purchased several fractional assignments of interest held by Prinova Investments, Ltd., a whole-owned subsidiary of Prinova Inc., and two other unrelated companies. The company acquired assignments of interest for a total $65,000. The Company received the entire investment balance of $65,000 plus a profit of $6,500. (4) PURCHASED INSURANCE POLICIES At March 31, 2002 and 2001, the face values of the policies held were $356,044 and $366,044, respectively. The book value of these policies at March 31, 2002 and 2001 was the same at $50,459 and $52,037, respectively. F-13 (5) FIXED ASSETS Depreciation is computed by using the straight-line method over five years, the estimated useful life of the asset(s). A summary of fixed assets and accumulated depreciation recorded for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 is as follows: 2002 2001 --------- --------- Furniture and fixtures $ 46,705 $ 46,705 Computers and software 9,486 9,486 --------- --------- Gross book value. 56,191 56,191 Less: accumulated depreciation (33,876) (24,376) --------- --------- Total net book value $ 22,315 $ 31,815 ========= ========= (6) INCOME TAXES A reconciliation of the Company's actual income tax (benefit) / expense to that computed using the United States federal statutory rate of 34% is as follows:
Year Ended Year Ended Year Ended March 31, 2002 March 31, 2001 March 31, 2000 ---------------- ---------------- --------------- Computed "expected" tax (benefit expense $ (25,890) $ (259,621) $ 124,439 Increase (decrease0 in income taxes resulting from: Change in valuation allowances 3,450,928 (200,593) Other (55) (51,978) Net operating loss carryforward 25,890 (3,191,252) 128,132 ---------------- ---------------- --------------- Total income tax expense $ - $ - $ - ================ ================ ===============
F-14 The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to deferred tax liabilities at March 31, 2002 and 2001 are presented as follows:
2002 2001 ---------- ---------- Deferred tax assets: Capital loss carryover $ 515,076 $ 515,076 Net operating loss 191,137 191,137 Other 1,182 1,182 ---------- ---------- Subtotal: Gross deferred tax assets $ 707,395 $ 707,395 ---------- ---------- Deferred tax liabilities: Other Subtotal: Gross deferred tax liabilities $ - $ - ---------- ---------- Net deferred tax asset, before valuation allowance 707,395 707,395 Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets (707,395) (707,395) ---------- ---------- Total deferred tax asset $ - $ - ========== ==========
It was determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized, therefore, the net deferred tax asset was fully allowed for as of March 31, 2002 and 2001. F-15 (7) NET OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARDS As of March 31, 2002, the Company had available unused capital loss carryforwards and operating loss carryforwards that may provide future tax benefits, which expire as follows: Unused Capital Federal Unused Net State Unused Net Year of Loss Operating Loss Operating Loss Expiration Carryforwards Carryforwards Carryforwards 2003 $ - $ - $ 7,000 2004 186,000 10,000 2005 126,000 12,000 2006 321,000 2007 26,000 2012 35,000 2013 39,000 2019 58,000 2020 61,000 2021 321,000 2022 26,000 --------------------------------------------------------- Total $ 312,000 $ 540,000 $ 376,000 ========================================================= Capital loss carryforwards arise due to losses incurred on the disposal of capital assets and may be used to offset future capital gains associated with the disposal of capital assets (but may not be used to offset ordinary income). Net operating loss carryforwards are the result of prior (and current) years' operations, which had recorded a net loss in terms of income tax computations. In general, operating loss carryforwards can be used to offset future operating profits, thus negating the necessity to pay corresponding future income taxes (until the loss carryforwards become used up or expire). Any such future operating profits (which might realize these tax benefits) could be derived internally, or could be derived from acquiring additional assets, or from the purchase of another qualified business entity through the acquisition of its stock. During fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, a substantial change in ownership occurred that resulted in a reduction of net operating loss tax benefit. The federal net operating loss was reduced by $10,828,000 and the state net operating loss was reduced by $11,835,000. Other limiting factors may also apply. At a combined federal and state corporate statutory tax rate of 38.8%, the remaining losses can, in a valid situation, result in the cancellation of a requirement to pay approximately $200,000 in federal and state income taxes, either immediately in one year or spread out until their expiration dates. The requirements to utilize such loss carry forwards are strict and the possibilities for usage are limited. F-16 (8) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY As of March 31, 2002 and 2001, 1,095,303 shares were issued and outstanding. The Company has paid no dividends on its Common Stock. The Company presently intends to retain any earnings to finance the development of its future business. The Company has had a stock option plan under which both incentive and non-qualified stock Options may be granted to purchase up to 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock. For Options granted as incentive stock options under the Plan, the exercise price must be at least equal to the fair market value on the date of the grant. The exercise price for non-qualified Options may be less than fair market value. All presently outstanding Options expired as of March 4, 2000. (9) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Notes Payable. As a result of the Debenture debt forgiveness, uncollateralized, non-interest-bearing notes aggregating $609,000 (undiscounted) were received by former Debenture holders who elected Option A under the Plan. For financial statement presentation, these notes have been discounted based on an imputed interest rate of 6%, resulting in an unamortized discount of $98,267; thus, these notes have been recorded at their discounted value of $510,733. During the year ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, $20,018 and $25,931, respectively, of the discount has been amortized. These notes are payable in five equal annual payments of $121,800. The first annual payment was originally scheduled for March 5, 2000; however, on advice of the then corporate counsel, a payment was not made according to that original schedule. The scheduled payments due March 5, 2002 and March 5, 2001 were also not made. The payments that are due are, at this point, due primarily to shareholders. Management is seeking appropriate guidance with respect to this issue. Albuquerque Office Lease. In January 2001, the Company entered into a lease, which resulted in scheduled lease payments of approximately $101,700, $156,540, and $121,320 for the fiscal years ending 2002, 2003, and 2004, respectively. The lease terminates on December 31, 2003, and the lease payments are $7,000 per month for the first year and increase to $12,900 per month for the second year. Each April 1, the lease payments may be adjusted according to any changes in the Consumer Price Index (which estimated adjustments are included above). At March 31, 2002, the remaining obligation under the lease totaled approximately $114,000. The lease grants two options to extend the term of the lease for five years each. Effective February 1, 2001, the Company subleases a portion of its space on a month-to-month basis to Prinova Capital Group, LLC, the controlling shareholder of the Company. The amount paid to the Company from Prinova during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001 was $6,500. F-17
