NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 1 - PRESENTATION The Corporation has prepared its financial statements as of September 30, 2002 in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). These statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial condition and results of operations for the periods represented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002. These financial statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2001. NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplates continuation of the Corporation as a going concern. However, the Corporation has sustained substantial operating losses since inception and the Corporation has used substantial amounts of working capital in its operations. The Corporation presently has no assets, approximately $877,000 in current liabilities and a stockholders' deficit of approximately $798,000. The above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Corporation's ability to continue as a going concern. The Corporation has acquired, as its wholly owned subsidiary, AmCorp Group, Inc. a newly formed management consulting corporation. The acquisition was a reversed merger whereby AmCorp will be the new management. AmCorp's management (See Note 3 "Acquisition") is responsible for finding emerging companies that require management consulting service. Because AmCorp is in the development stage there can be no assurance that the new management will be successful and the Corporation will continue to exist. NOTE 3 - ACQUISITION In September 2002 the Corporation acquired AmCorp Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation, for 78,300,000 shares of its common stock. The stock will be released as follows: 46,980,000 shares released immediately; and 31,320,000 shares held in escrow contingent upon AmCorp reaching certain benchmarks, i.e., the acquisition of companies over two years under various scenarios. If the benchmarks are not reached, the transaction will be rescinded. In substance, the transaction is considered to be a capital transaction rather than a business combination and is accounted for as a reverse merger. The stockholders of AmCorp will own 78,300,000 shares of the 153,631,648 shares of the Corporation's common stock outstanding or 51%. NOTE 4 - LOSS PER SHARE The effect on weighted average number of shares of diluted potential common stock are not included in the computation because their inclusion would have an antidilutive effect (reduce the loss per common share) applicable to the loss from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. NOTE 5 - INCOME TAXES Deferred taxes are provided on the asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of asset and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. Because of the change in ownership, the operating losses carried forward will be substantially reduced. At September 30, 2002 and 2001 there were no temporary differences between books and tax. The operating loss carryforwards are fully reserved. NOTE 6 - LONG-TERM DEBT The carrying value of the Corporation's long-term debt approximates market value and is as follows: September 30 2002 2001 Note payable, due in monthly installment of $1,517, interest at 9.25%, uncollateralized, due on demand $26,380 $26,380 Note payable, interest at 9.25%, uncollateralized, due July 21, 2001 17,661 17,661 $44,041 $44,041 Less current maturities $44,041 $44,041 $ - $ - The above notes are in a default status. The Corporation is presently renegotiating the notes. NOTE 7 - GOODWILL Goodwill represents the 78,300,000 shares of common stock given in the acquisition of AmCorp. The shares were valued at the Corporation's par value of it common stock ($0.001). NOTE 8 - USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. NOTE 9 - STOCK OPTIONS At September 30, 2002 there were 1,568,679 options vested and 1,657,000 options non- vested. NOTE 10 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY The Corporation filed with the Securities Exchange Commission Form S-8 on February 6, 2002 registering 5,550,000 shares of its common stock as a "Non-Employee Directors and Consultants Retainer Stock Plan." The 5,550,000 shares were issued March 1, 2002 at a market value of $0.001 per share. On July 30, 2002 the Corporation amended the above S-8 filing to bring the Plan up to 25,000,000 shares including the 5,500,000 shares already issued. On August 19, 2002, the Corporation issued 13,700,000 shares and on September 19, 2002, 5,000,000 shares were issued. This brought the total shares issued under the Plan to 24,200,000. The Corporation increased its authorized common shares from 85,000,000 to 500,000,000 shares and changed the par value from $0.0001 to $0.001 (in connection with its re-domicile from Delaware to Nevada). This transaction was recorded as an increase in common stock ($37,052) and a decrease in additional paid-in capital. NOTE 11 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On October 31, 2002, the Corporation entered into an acquisition agreement with the shareholders of Naturally Safe Technologies, Inc., a privately held Nevada corporation ("Naturally Safe"). Under the terms of this agreement, on the closing date, the parties exchanged common stock on a 1-for-1 basis, with Naturally Safe exchanging with the Corporation all of its issued and outstanding shares representing in the aggregate 28,139,801 shares and the Corporation exchanging with Naturally Safe 28,139,801 shares of its restricted common stock. ITEM 2. PLAN OF OPERATION. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Registrant and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Financial Overview. A comparison between nine months ending September 30, 2002 and September 30, 2001 would be meaningless because operations have been inactive during the 2002 nine month period. Since inception through September 30, 2002 the Registrant has incurred losses resulting in an accumulated deficit at September 30, 2002 of approximately $7.7 million. Currently, the Company's president is seeking out new business opportunities and will need to renegotiate with our creditors whose outstanding balances at September 30, 2002 are approximately $814,000. Liquidity and Capital Resources. As of September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Registrant's cash position was $0 and $3,059 respectively. Prior to 2001, the Registrant has funded its operations primarily through private equity financing from accredited investors pursuant to Regulation D, which is a limited offer and sale of securities without registration under the Securities Act of 1933. During the first nine months of 2002, net cash provided by financing was $0 as compared to $91,502 provided by financing during the first nine months of 2001. The Registrant has made no provision for any current or deferred U.S. federal, state income tax or benefit for any of the periods presented. The Registrant cannot provide an assurance as to when profits will materialize, if at all. Therefore, the Registrant cannot predict when it can use the net operating loss carry-forwards, which begin to expire in 2017, and which may be subject to certain limitations imposed under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Due to the uncertainty concerning the Registrant's ability to realize the related tax benefit, it has provided a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset, which consists primarily of net operating loss carry-forwards (NOL). Because of an ownership change, the NOL's will be substantially reduced. Net cash (used) in operations was $0 during the first nine months of 2002 compared to $(110,661) during the comparable 2001 nine months. Net cash provided by in investing activities was $0 and $3,059 for the nine months of 2002 and 2001, respectively. Net cash provided in financing activities was $0 and $91,502 for the nine months of 2002 and 2001, respectively. Because of the Registrant's recurring losses, $0 assets and approximately $877,000 in liabilities and $798,000 stockholders' deficit, its independent accountants have expressed substantial doubt as to the Registrant's ability to continue as a going concern. Inflation. The Registrant's management does not believe that inflation has had or is likely to have any significant impact on the Registrant's operations. Management believes that the Registrant will be able to increase subscriber rates after its wireless systems are launched, if necessary, to keep pace with inflationary increases in costs. Twelve-Month Plan of Operation. (a) Business Summary. The Registrant intends to function as a holding company which through its subsidiaries (wholly owned and partially owned) to provide management services to businesses that have an operating history and can substantiate future performance in their respective industries. The Registrant participates in companies in various fields of business by providing executive-level managerial assistance as well as arranging for and contributing capital investment. Potential ventures are evaluated based on the ability of the business to be viable and reach significant milestones set forth in their business plans through strong intellectual property rights and experienced management. The Registrant also continually seeks out and evaluates investment opportunities that have the potential of earning reasonable returns. The Registrant also has plans to raise capital specifically for the purpose of permitting it to start new ventures and make investments in portfolio companies that it believes are attractive based upon its investment criterion (see below for more details). The Registrant consults in ventures have at least a two-year operating history and a need for experienced managerial assistance. Identifying and developing each new business opportunity may require the Registrant to dedicate certain amounts of financial resources, management attention, and personnel, with no assurance that these expenditures will be recouped. Similarly, the selection of companies and the determination of whether a company offers a viable business plan, an acceptable likelihood of success and future profitability involves inherent risk and uncertainty. (b) Business Segments. Management Services (Current). The Registrant's primary business segment is performing management consulting services for emerging companies and realizing a return on from those services through management fess paid and stock appreciation. The Registrant provides these services through its wholly owned subsidiary AmCorp Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation formed in June 2002. The services to be provided are most often geared towards marketing, distribution, accounting, and finance. These management fees will be the primary source of revenue for the Registrant and are negotiated based upon the level of participation and the complexity of the services. However, generally the monthly management fees range from $5,000 and $20,000 per company and the payments are often a combination of stock and cash. Since the Registrant will receive a portion of its revenue in the form of stock, the revenue derived from stock appreciation is realized when the shares of stock held by the Registrant are judiciously sold either in the open market or by private transaction. As the Registrant expands its client base, the turnover of stock will increase to a level whereby the Registrant will have a monthly revenue stream from the strategic depletion of its stock portfolio. Any dividends received from the investment portfolio companies is considered ancillary to the investment return and is not relied upon for the Registrant's operations. The Registrant plans to obtain least three clients per year starting in 2003. These companies will be selected by the Registrant's management based upon their qualifications, both qualitative and quantitative. They must satisfy, at minimum, the Registrant's client selection criterion as well as be considered an attractive investment given the economic and capital market conditions present at the time of evaluation. Each company selected will enter into a two-year consulting agreement with the Registrant for the management services to be provided. Small-business Lending (Proposed Activity). The Registrant plans to enter into the small-business lending market by acting as a broker/underwriter for loans qualified emerging companies for between $25,000 and $5,000,000. The loans are generally used for accounts receivable, inventory, real estate, purchase order financing, rediscount, SBA Loans, construction, and equipment. The interest rates on the loans will vary based upon the financial qualifications of the borrowing entity and amount borrowed. The Registrant will receive a commission on brokered loans and interest revenue on any directly financed loans. The Registrant projects an anticipated average of $6,000,000 of brokered transactions and $500,000 of direct finance loans per year once its fully operational (fiscal year 2005). The small-business lending is not only intended to produce recurring income for the Registrant, but it will also provide a steady flow of potential clients that the Registrant can evaluate for client selection. The Registrant has several lending institutions that it will use for its brokered deals, with the primary lender being Alliance Bank in Culver City, California. The funding for this venture will come from the accumulated earnings of the Registrant and/or from capital raised in a public offering of the Registrant's common stock. (c) Management Criteria The Registrant has a management team strategy that allows it to evaluate its potential portfolio companies independent from each other to determine their suitability. This strategy imposes the following criterion on potential portfolio companies: 1. An operating history of at least two complete fiscal years, or net income of greater than $200,000 for the previous fiscal year, or net assets of $1,000,000 or greater; 2. A need for experienced managerial assistance to further its business plan; and 3. A desire to realize growth by use of higher outside management. Risk Factors Connected with Plan of Operation. (a) Limited Prior Operations, History of Operating Losses, and Accumulated Deficit May Affect Ability of Registrant to Survive. The Registrant has had limited prior operations to date. Since the Registrant's principal activities recently have been limited to organizational activities, and seeking new business ventures, it has no recent record of any revenue-producing operations. Consequently, there is only a limited operating history upon which to base an assumption that the Registrant will be able to achieve its business plans. In addition, the Registrant has only limited assets. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Registrant will generate significant revenues in the future; and there can be no assurance that the Registrant will operate at a profitable level. Accordingly, the Registrant's prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered in connection with the establishment of a new business. The Registrant has incurred losses from operations: $576,724 for the year ended December 31, 2000, $646,939 for the year ended December 31, 2001, and $53,131 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. At September 30, 2002, the Registrant had an accumulated deficit of $7,725,531. This raises substantial doubt about the Registrant's ability to continue as a going concern. (b) Need for Additional Financing May Affect Operations and Plan of Business. The working capital requirements associated with any adopted plan of business of the Registrant may be significant. The Registrant anticipates that it must seek financing to start-up a new business line (an amount which is as yet to be determined). However, such financing, when needed, may not be available, or on terms acceptable to management. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, the Registrant may not be able to take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a negative impact on the business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, if additional shares were issued to obtain financing, current shareholders may suffer a dilutive effect on their percentage of stock ownership in the Registrant. (c) Control by Officers and Directors Over Affairs of the Registrant May Override Wishes of Other Stockholders. The Registrant's officers and directors beneficially own approximately 41% of the outstanding shares of the Registrant's common stock. As a result, such persons, acting together, have the ability to exercise significant influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval. In addition, all decisions with respect to the management of the Registrant will be made exclusively by the officers and directors of the Registrant. Investors will only have rights associated with stockholders to make decisions that effect the Registrant. Accordingly, it could be difficult for the investors hereunder to effectuate control over the affairs of the Registrant. Therefore, the success of the Registrant, to a large extent, will depend on the quality of the directors and officers of the Registrant. Accordingly, no person should invest in the Registrant unless he is willing to entrust all aspects of the management of the Registrant to the officers and directors. (d) Loss of Any of Current Management Could Have Adverse Impact on Business and Prospects for Registrant. The Registrant's success is dependent upon the hiring and retention of key personnel. None of the Registrant's officers and directors currently has employment or non-competition agreements with the Registrant. Therefore, there can be no assurance that these personnel will remain employed by the Registrant. Should any of these individuals cease to be affiliated with the Registrant for any reason before qualified replacements could be found, there could be material adverse effects on the Registrant's business and prospects. The Registrant's success will also be highly dependent on its ability to attract and retain qualified employees. (e) Limitations on Liability, and Indemnification, of Directors and Officers May Result in Expenditures by Registrant. The bylaws of the Registrant and the Nevada Revised Statutes generally provide for permissive indemnification of officers and directors and the Registrant may provide indemnification under such provisions. Any indemnification of directors, officer, or employees, could result in substantial expenditures being made by the Registrant in covering any liability of such persons or in indemnifying them. (f) Potential Conflicts of Interest May Affect Ability of Officers and Directors to Make Decisions in the Best Interests of Registrant. The officers and directors have other interests to which they devote time, either individually or through partnerships and corporations in which they have an interest, hold an office, or serve on boards of directors, and each will continue to do so notwithstanding the fact that management time may be necessary to the business of the Registrant. As a result, certain conflicts of interest may exist between the Registrant and its officers and/or directors which may not be susceptible to resolution. All of the potential conflicts of interest will be resolved only through exercise by the directors of such judgment as is consistent with their fiduciary duties to the Registrant. It is the intention of management, so as to minimize any potential conflicts of interest, to present first to the board of directors of the Registrant, any proposed investments for its evaluation. (g) Non-Cumulative Voting May Affect Ability of Shareholders to Influence Registrant Decisions. Holders of the shares are not entitled to accumulate their votes for the election of directors or otherwise. Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the shares present at a meeting of shareholders will be able to elect all of the directors of the Registrant, and the minority shareholders will not be able to elect a representative to the Registrant's board of directors. (h) Absence of Cash Dividends May Affect Investment Value of Registrant's Stock. The board of directors does not anticipate paying cash dividends on the shares for the foreseeable future and intends to retain any future earnings to finance the growth of the Registrant's business. Payment of dividends, if any, will depend, among other factors, on earnings, capital requirements, and the general operating and financial condition of the Registrant, and will be subject to legal limitations on the payment of dividends out of paid-in capital. (i) No Assurance of Continued Public Trading Market and Risk of Low Priced Securities May Affect Market Value of Registrant's Stock. There has been only a limited public market for the common stock of the Registrant. The common stock of the Registrant is not currently traded on any exchange. As a result, an investor may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of the Registrant's securities. In addition, the common stock is subject to the low-priced security or so called "penny stock" rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker- dealers who sell such securities. The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock (generally, according to recent regulations adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions), including the delivery, prior to any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith. The regulations governing low-priced or penny stocks sometimes limit the ability of broker- dealers to sell the Registrant's common stock and thus, ultimately, the ability of the investors to sell their securities in the secondary market. (j) Shares Eligible For Future Sale. Approximately 98,262,800 shares of common stock which are controlled directly or indirectly by affiliates of the Registrant have been issued in reliance on the private placement exemption under the Securities Act of 1933. Such shares will not be available for sale in the open market without separate registration except in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. In general, under Rule 144 a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned shares acquired in a non-public transaction for at least one year, including persons who may be deemed affiliates of the Registrant (as that term is defined under that rule) would be entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of common stock, or the average weekly reported trading volume during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale, provided that certain current public information is then available. If a substantial number of the shares owned by these shareholders were sold pursuant to Rule 144 or a registered offering, the market price of the common stock could be adversely affected. Forward Looking Statements. The foregoing Plan of Operation contains "forward looking statements" within the meaning of Rule 175 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 3b-6 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, including statements regarding, among other items, the Registrant's business strategies, continued growth in the Registrant's markets, projections, and anticipated trends in the Registrant's business and the industry in which it operates. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intends," "forecast," "project," and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. These forward- looking statements are based largely on the Registrant's expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond the Registrant's control. The Registrant cautions that these statements are further qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking statements, including, among others, the following: reduced or lack of increase in demand for the Registrant's products, competitive pricing pressures, changes in the market price of ingredients used in the Registrant's products and the level of expenses incurred in the Registrant's operations. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the forward- looking information contained herein will in fact transpire or prove to be accurate.
