See accompanying notices to consolidated financial statements -3- 24HOLDINGS INC. (formerly known as Scoop, Inc.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2004 (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, 2003. General: 24Holdings Inc., formerly known as Scoop, Inc. ("24Holdings" or the "Company"), is a majority owned subsidiary of InfiniCom AB, a publicly listed company on the SBI market in Sweden. 24Holdings has a wholly owned subsidiary, 24Store Europe LTD, located in the United Kingdom. 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 $352,861 and $107,001 during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and the year ended December 31, 2003, respectively, and has an accumulated deficit of $10,296,280 at September 30, 2004. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company recently sold the building in which they operate, which raised net proceeds of approximately $1,500,000. This money has been used to pay down certain liabilities and for working capital. Management is also seeking to sell the UK operating subsidiary (see Note 3). The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. -4- 24HOLDINGS INC. (formerly known as Scoop, Inc.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2004 (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 income (loss). (3) Discontinued Operations: The Company's management intends to dispose of the Company's UK subsidiary, 24Europe, which presently is anticipated to occur within the next six months. The Company is currently in discussions with its Parent company, Infinicom, concerning Infinicom's possible acquisition of 24Europe in exchange for a note payable. As the intended sale would meet all the requirements of paragraph 30 of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary have been classified as Held for sale on the accompanying balance sheet, while the results of operations have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. As the Company would anticipate selling the subsidiary for an amount in excess of the carrying value, no loss on disposal has been recognized and included as a component of discontinued operations. The carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities included as part of the assets and liabilities held for sale at June 30, 2004, are as follows: Cash and cash equivalents $ 341,367 Accounts receivable 502,932 Inventory 103,525 Prepaid expenses and other assets 22,850 ---------- Current assets held for sale 970,674 Property and equipment - held for sale 43,795 Accounts payable and accrued expenses 785,306 Income taxes payable 95,985 ---------- Current liabilities held for sale $ 881,291 (4) Sale of Building: During the first quarter of 2004, the Company completed its negotiations on the sale of the freehold property in which their operations are conducted, for approximately $1,523,000. On March 25th 2004 contracts for the sale of the building were exchanged with the completion of the sales was made on April 14th 2004. The sale resulted in a gain on sale recognized in the accompanying -5- financial statements of approximately $180,000, which includes the write off of the deferred tax liability which arose in relation to the step up in basis upon acquisition of the UK subsidiary. As the building was an asset of the UK subsidiary which is being disposed of (see Note 3) this gain on sale is included in discontinued operations in the accompanying Statement of Operations. 24Store Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of 24 Holdings Inc., entered into a lease with the purchaser of the building on completion of the sale to remain in the building for the next 18 months. -6- 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, 2003, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the Three Months ended September 30, 2004: Continuing Operations SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2004 were $26,301 compared to $43,192 for the three months ended September 30, 2003.

The reduction is a result of 24Store Ltd failure to make significant investment in a web trading combined with the loss of key sales staff and the loss of some major accounts. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2004 was $205,876 compared to $437,670 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 representing a decrease of 53%. Gross profits as a percentage of sales were 13.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2004 compared to 13.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2003. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2004 were $373,836 compared to $445,764 for the three months ended September 30, 2003. The decrease was the result in reductions in salaries and marketing cost. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense, net of interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2004 was on income of $5,188 compared to a cost $13,455 for the three months ended September 30, 2003, this reduction is the result of paying off the mortgage on the building, with the respective reduction in mortgage interest. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Continuing Operations Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2004 were $928 compared to $13,283 as of December 31, 2003. This reduction in cash was from payments to Accounts Payable. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Discontinued Operations -7- Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2004 were $341,369 compared to $134,558 as of December 31, 2003. This increase is the result of the sale of the building. The cash generated from the sale has been used to pay off the long-term debt on the building and to reduce the borrowing on our credit facility with Lombard. In its United Kingdom operating subsidiaries the Company has a revolving line of credit based on 70% of eligible receivables. The revolving line of credit bear interest at the prime rate plus 2%. For the Nine Months ended September 30, 2004: Continuing Operations SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 were $79,711 compared to $90,663 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004: Discontinued Operations NET SALES. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30 , 2004 were $6,732,970 compared to $10,352,835 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 representing a decrease of 35%. The reduction in sales was primarily attributable to a drop in demand across the market and a loss in our market position because failure to invest in improved web marketing combined with a weak third quarter the result of the loss of key sales personnel. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $840,200 compared to $1,372,683 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 representing a decrease of 39%. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 12.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 compared to 13.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The main reason for the margin on sales decline was a reduction in marketing funding from suppliers. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 were $1,090,259 compared to $1,471,964 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. $180,288 of the decrease was the result of the profit on the sale of the building and reduction of the deferred tax provision. The rest of the reduction was primarily the result of savings in salaries and advertising cost. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense, net of interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $12,370 compared to $42,374 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003.The reduction is the result of paying off the mortgage on the property at the start of the second quarter. PLAN of OPERATIONS It is the intention of 24Holdings Inc to sell the UK operations and in accordance with SFAS 144 assets and liabilities of the units have been shown as held for sale and operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented. -8- 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 between the United Kingdom, Norway and the United States may give rise to material variances in reported earnings of the Company. Item 4. Controls and Procedures. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, have concluded that, as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this report on Form 10-Q, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under such Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. -9- PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 5. Other Information. On April 14, 2004, the Company completed its sale of the building currently occupied by the Company for a total cash purchase price of $1,523,220.
