-1- 24HOLDINGS INC. (formerly known as Scoop, Inc.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (1) Description of Business: Interim Financial Statements: The accompanying financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in the annual report of 24Holdings Inc. and subsidiary on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. General: 24Holdings Inc., formerly known as Scoop, Inc. ("24Holdings" or the "Company"), was incorporated in 1996 in the state of Delaware as an online news provider. In July 1998, the Company filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the federal bankruptcy laws in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California. On October 5, 1999 pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company was acquired in a reverse merger with 24STORE (Europe) Limited, formerly known as 24STORE.com Limited ("24STORE"), whose parent company acquired 91% of the outstanding shares of the Company, or 60,783,219 of newly issued shares, in exchange for all the outstanding shares of 24STORE. 24STORE was incorporated July 28, 1998 in England and Wales, and was a wholly owned subsidiary of InfiniCom AB, a publicly listed company on the SBI market in Sweden, whose principal activity is that of a consulting company. On May 6, 1999, 24STORE acquired three companies registered in the United Kingdom, related through common ownership. Scoop, Inc. changed its name to 24Holdings Inc. on April 2, 2001. All the consolidated entities are in the business of selling and distributing consumer and commercial electronic products in Europe. Basis of Presentation: The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred net losses of $827,279 and $230,518 during the year ended December 31, 2002 and the nine months ended September 30, 2003, respectively, and has an accumulated deficit of $10,098,610 at September 30, 2003. The Company had negative working capital of $1,044,646 at September 30, 2003. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management is currently attempting to decrease operating costs and enter into new sources of revenue, including software sales and consulting, and selling some assets to raise funds. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. -2- 24HOLDINGS INC. (formerly known as Scoop, Inc.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (2) Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated statements include the accounts of 24Holdings Inc. and subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The financial statements of subsidiaries outside the United States are generally measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates, and operating statement items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as other comprehensive income. Exchange adjustments resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net loss. (3) Long-term asset held for sale: The Company is in negotiations to sell the freehold property in which its operations are conducted. As all the conditions of SFAS 145 "Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of by Sale", paragraph 30, have been met, the property has been classified in the accompanying financial statements as a separate line item. (4) Contingencies: On January 28, 2002, the Company's parent company, InfiniCom AB, applied to the Stockholm District Council for reconstruction in accordance with Swedish law, similar to a Chapter 11 filing in the United States bankruptcy system. The parent company restructured its debt and emerged from reconstruction during 2002. As a result, the parent company is experiencing difficulties in providing funds to assist in financing the working capital of the Company, including the reporting requirements of the Company. The parent company experienced a change of control during the second quarter of 2003 and during the third quarter of 2003 advanced approximately $70,000 to the Company. However, it cannot be guaranteed that the parent company will continue to advance funds to the Company, either for operations or reporting requirements. On July 17, 2002, the Company, by way of redundancy, terminated the employment of its President/Chief Executive Officer, with the Company's Board of Directors ratifying the termination on August 12, 2002. Under the terms of the former President/Chief Executive Officer's employment agreement with the operating companies, the Company paid six months' salary to him upon his termination. The former President/Chief Executive Officer pursued a claim against the Company in the United Kingdom for unfair dismissal; however, during March 2003 the Company reached a settlement agreement with the former President/Chief Executive Officer for approximately $72,000, which amount has been paid as of September 30, 2003. -3- Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The following discussion and analysis provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's interim results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the Three Months ended September 30, 2003: NET SALES. Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were $3,170,609 compared to $4,215,707 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 representing a decrease of 25%. The main reason for the reduction in the three months ended September 30, 2003 was a reduction in sales to a volume export account and a low level of demand in the computer hardware market. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was $437,669 compared to $456,403 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 representing a decrease of 4%. Gross profits as a percentage of sales were 13.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to 10.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The changes in gross profit between periods are a result of the reduction in sales to the low margin high volume export account, improved computer hardware margins due to product mix, and higher margins on software solutions sales which the Company began to sell during 2003. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were $487,159 compared to $542,964 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease is primarily attributable to a reduction in advertising expenditure and reduction in professional cost accruals. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense, net of interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was $13,456 compared to $11,658 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2003 were $143 compared to $802,091 as of December 31, 2002. This decrease is primarily due to the position of cash advances on the revolving line of credit at year-end and the timing of payments to creditors at year-end and at September 30, 2003. The cash balance has remained almost unchanged for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to a net decrease of $133,442 in the three months ended September 30, 2002. -4- In its United Kingdom operating subsidiaries the Company has (1) a revolving line of credit based on 70% of eligible receivables and (2) a ten year mortgage expiring in 2008, secured by the underlying property and (3) a $75,000 overdraft facility. The mortgage, the revolving line of credit and the overdraft facility bear interest at the prime rate plus 2%. For the Nine Months ended September 30, 2003: NET SALES. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $10,352,836 compared to $15,119,034 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 representing a decrease of 32%. The reduction in sales was primarily attributable to a drop in demand across the market and reduced sales to a lower margin volume export account that had accounted for approximately 6% of net sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2002. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $1,372,683 compared to $1,398,293 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 representing a decrease of 1%. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 13.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to 9.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. For the first nine months of 2003 higher margins were the result of improved product mix in computer hardware, higher margins on software solutions sales, and the impact of the first nine months of 2002 having included low margin sales to the volume export account. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $1,560,831 compared to $1,601,285 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. In the UK, costs in local currency were reduced from 908,594 Pounds Sterling for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to 1,007,399 Pounds Sterling for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The main area of cost reduction was in staffing levels and audit/accountancy cost. Due to changes in the exchange rate, costs in US dollars increased by 7%. At the Parent company costs were reduced by 15% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to September 30, 2002. The cost reductions were primarily in professional and legal costs associated with SEC filing requirements. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense, net of interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $42,370 compared to $40,194 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. The Company does not hold any derivative financial instruments. However, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk. The Company believes that the market risk arising from holdings of its financial instruments is not material. However, all of the Company's operations are conducted through its subsidiary 24STORE and denominated in British pounds sterling or, prior to the sale of its Norwegian subsidiary, Norwegian Kroner, and none of the Company's revenues are generated in US Dollars. For consolidation purposes, the assets and liabilities of 24STORE are converted to US Dollars using year-end exchange rates and results of operations are converted using a monthly average rate during the year. Fluctuations in the currency rates -5- between the United Kingdom, Norway and the United States may give rise to material variances in reported earnings of the Company. -6- PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
