PART I ITEM 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT On September 4, 2001, KIK Technology International, Inc. (KTII) (formerly Russian-Imports.com) issued 16,700,000 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock to KIK Tire Technologies, Inc. (a publicly-owned Canadian corporation) (KTTI) for 100.0% of the issued and outstanding stock of KIK Technology, Inc. (a wholly- owned subsidiary of KTTI). By virtue of this transaction, KIK Technology, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of KTII and KTTI became an approximate 73.6% shareholder in KTII. Concurrent with this transaction, Russian-Imports.com changed it's corporate name to KIK Technologies International, Inc. At the transaction date, KTII was a "shell company" as the Company had no assets or liabilities, had generated no revenues since inception and had incurred total expenses of approximately $940,000 since its inception on February 1, 2000 through the September 4, 2001 transaction. The acquisition of KIK Technology, Inc. (KTI), on September 4, 2001, by KTII effected a change in control of KTII and was accounted for as a "reverse acquisition" whereby KTI is the accounting acquiror for financial statement purposes. For accounting purposes, the acquisition was treated as an acquisition of the Company by KIK and as a recapitalization of KIK. The historical shareholders' equity of KIK, prior to the transaction, was retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares exchanged in the transaction after giving effect to any difference in the par value of the Company and KIK's common stock, with an offset to additional paid-in capital. Accordingly, the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company are those of KTI from it's inception and those of the consolidated entity subsequent to the September 4, 2001 transaction date. The Company follows the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and has adopted a year-end of January 31. The Company operates through it's wholly-owned subsidiary, KIK Technology, Inc. (KTI). KTI operates from its manufacturing plant and marketing offices located at Oceanside, California and manufactures and markets an extensive and high 3 quality line of off-highway micro-cellular polyurethane tires for the healthcare, light industrial, lawn and garden and recreational industries. The current KIK production processes, formulations, manufacturing equipment, and line of some 150 products are the result of over ten years of research and development, funded by over $5 million of invested capital, and protected by trade secrets and licensing agreements. In its formative years, KIK, through it's research and development efforts, developed new and tougher varieties of urethane formulations for it's products; obtained tooling for new products; and added extensive production capacity. The Company introduced initiated various marketing programs as capital was available resulting in revenues of approximately $3.2 million for Fiscal 2003, approximately $2.6 million for Fiscal 2002 and approximately and $3.7 million for Fiscal 2001. Revenues are generated through direct sales to the medical market segment (primarily wheelchair tires) and through an extensive network of third party marketing distributors. KIK now intends to implement ambitious marketing strategies, directly and through carefully selected new strategic partners. The manufacturing infrastructure sufficient to meet projected demand through the next few years is in place. The Company relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder ("Rule 506") for recent issuances of its unregistered securities. In each instance, such reliance was based upon the fact that (i) the issuance of the shares did not involve a public offering, (ii) there were no more than thirty-five (35) investors (excluding "accredited investors"), (iii) each investor who was not an accredited investor either alone or with his purchaser representative(s) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment, or the issuer reasonably believes immediately prior to making any sale that such purchaser comes within this description, (iv) the offers and sales were made in compliance with Rules 501 and 502, (v) the securities were subject to Rule 144 limitations on resale and (vi) each of the parties was a sophisticated purchaser and had full access to the information on the Company necessary to make an informed investment decision by virtue of the due diligence conducted by the purchaser or available to the purchaser prior to the transaction (the "506 Exemption"). On January 2, 2001, February 2, 2001 and March 2, 2001, the Company issued 600,000 shares of its common stock, (for a total 1,800,000 shares), pursuant to the S-8 Registration Statement previously registered with the SEC, to third party outside consultants for services in developing products for import, such services valued at $180,000. During the second fiscal quarter of Fiscal 2002, the Company issued 4,200,000 shares of its common stock, pursuant to the S-8 Registration Statement previously registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, to four (4) third party outside consultants for services in developing products for import, such services valued at $420,000. The issuances were part of a plan conceived in January 2001 and implemented in this quarter. In June 2001, the Company issued 600,000 shares of its common stock, pursuant to the S-8 Registration Statement previously registered with the SEC, to third party outside consultants for services in developing products for import, such services valued at $60,000. On September 4, 2001, the Company merged with KIK, with the Company as the surviving corporation. The acquisition was consummated by the execution of a Share Exchange Agreement dated June 25, 2001. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Holders tendered to the Company all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of KIK in exchange for 16,700,000 shares of common stock of the Company. As a result of the foregoing transaction, there was a change in control of the Company. The previous shareholders of KIK now control the Company and hold approximately 69.6% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. On October 17, 2001, in connection with the acquisition of KIK, the Company canceled 6,775,000 shares of common stock of the Company. On October 30, 2001, in connection with the acquisition of KIK, the Company canceled 236,500 shares of common stock of the Company and reissued 63,500 shares of common stock of the Company. 4 In October 2001, the Company issued 1,200,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock valued at $0.07 per share to two (2) entities for services rendered to the Company. In January 2002, the Company sold 85,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock to a private investor for $8,500, or $0.10 per share. Effective at the end of each Fiscal quarter during Fiscal 2003, the Company and the holders of the two convertible notes agreed for the payment of accrued interest in restricted, unregistered common stock. The Company issued an aggregate 101,964 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock in payment of accrued interest. These transactions were valued at an aggregate approximately $6,978. The convertible note terms allow for the payment of accrued interest with restricted, unregistered common stock using an average value of 50% of the daily average of the market price of the common stock for the 30 calendar days preceding the interest due date. In two instances, the closing stock price, as discounted was at or in excess of the closing price on the settlement date. In two instances, the closing stock price on the settlement date was in excess of the prescribed calculation. The differential between the discounted "fair value" and the settlement price resulted in a charge to operations of approximately $906 for compensation expense related to common stock issuances at less than "fair value". BUSINESS STRATEGY KIK is a manufacturer of micro-cellular polyurethane (MCP) tires with the technology and equipment to take advantage of the growing market for flat-free tires. It has developed what it considers is an excellent reputation within the industry. It is the objective of the Company to become a major force throughout the world as a MCP tire producer. The Company believes the tire industry is looking for an alternative to pneumatic tires and that the KIK tires provide a viable, "value added" alternative. The Company's initial focus is to determine the needs of existing and potential customers and supplying a superior product at competitive prices. The Company will also continue to pursue and evaluate new business diversification opportunities available tit using its technology. PRODUCT KIK manufactures polyurethane tires by blending hydrocarbon-based quality isocyanate intermediates with glycol-based polyols and other chemicals. The resulting compound makes a light but tough tire which the Company believes will set an evolutionary trend in the tire industry. KIK tires are environmentally friendly, puncture and leak proof and maintenance free. They ride like a pneumatic tire but last much longer due to their tough polymer construction. The Company also manufactures non-tire urethane products, for non-tire customers. THE COMPANY'S EQUIPMENT AND PRODUCTION LINE CAPABILITIES KIK owns all the equipment necessary to turn raw material to the finished product - tires and wheel assemblies. The Company's technology and equipment enable it to produce a large variety of tires and other products. Although the Company is licensed for three variant features of MCP tire technologies, it has developed its own unique chemical formulations and manufacturing processes. The Company's production process requires the dispensing of catalyzed liquid chemicals into a spinning mold. This centrifugal casting of mixed, activated polyurethane base stock raw materials results in a tough molded polymer with smooth, solid outer skin and a lighter, uniformly dense porous foam core. KIK tires can be designed and molded to virtually any tread specification and are available in a variety of colors. The spin casting results in perfectly balanced tires. The Company has the equipment to produce, depending on the size of the tire, 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 tires annually. 5 The Company has a machine shop and maintains its own testing and quality assurance equipment and program. Completed tires must meet specific protocols such as weight and pressure. Whenever possible, the Company purchases raw materials in bulk to produce significant savings in the manufacturing process. The Company is constantly looking into developing new products and modifying existing products for its production lines, and is evaluating improvements to its technology designed to lower production costs and improve competitiveness in its markets. PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY The Company operates under perpetual licensing agreements with patent holders that cover various aspects of tire and equipment designs, chemical formulations and manufacturing processes. MARKETING AND SALES DISTRIBUTION The Company has grouped the worldwide market for off-highway tires into four major market segments, each possessing identifiable business characteristics requiring separate sales strategies. HEALTHCARE: The Company's immediate focus is penetration of the existing wheelchair and power scooter pneumatic tire business, with emphasis at the OEM level. This has been the "prototype" industry around which the Company has developed and perfected its MCP tire technology. Through trade shows, trade magazine advertising, distributors and direct sales contacts, an excellent base has been established to facilitate future growth in this sector. INDUSTRIAL: KIK markets light, off-highway industrial and utility tires through its strategic alliance with ARNCO, A Los Angeles based producer of pneumatic tire sealants and foam-fill compounds. ARNCO, a world leader in their field, has a North American distribution network in place providing an immediate and natural sales outlet for KIK's "Carefree" branded products. KIK private-labels tires for ARNCO under the "Carefree Tire" registered trademark, and for selected high volume customers. RECREATIONAL: Although the Company has products for recreational devices such as golf carts and skate boards, this market is dominated by bicycles. KIK will likely manufacture bicycle tires outside of North America through selected strategic (joint venture) partners in countries such as China active in export markets, and where users are reliant on the bicycle as basic transportation. There are an estimated 500 million bicycles in China and approximately 90 million more are manufactured each year, with 40 million remaining in China, and the balance exported. LAWN & GARDEN: KIK will attack the international lawn and garden OEM market directly and through established distributors. Most of Carefree Tire's North American downstream tire distribution network services this industry parallel to the industrial market. Initial results indicate that users embrace this new technology enthusiastically for such applications as wheelbarrows, powered lawn mowers, snow blowers, and farm carts, etc. OEMs are also being aggressively pursued in the United States, Canada and Europe. ADVERTISING & PROMOTION As the Company has available capital, the Company is developing a variety of collateral materials to support sales efforts. These materials include informational and instructional video tapes, brochures, product catalogs with data sheets, flyers, sample presentations etc. The Company also advertises and markets its products on its website - www.kiktire.com. COMPETITION Currently the Company knows of three tire manufacturers that utilize a manufacturing process similar to its own (Green Tire, U.K., Alshin Tire, U.S.A., Amerityre Corporation, U.S.A.). The Company has also heard of a manufacturer in India and one in China. To the best of the Company's knowledge, only a limited number of their tires have been marketed in the United States. The Company's main competition comes from firms that manufacture and market tires and tubes 6 made from rubber. Several of these competitors are large well-established companies with considerably greater financial, marketing, sales and technical resources than those available to the Company. Additionally, many of the Company's present and potential competitors have capabilities that may allow such competitors to offer its products at prices which may compete with the Company's products. The Company's products could be made uneconomical by the introduction of new products or marketing or pricing actions by one or more of the Company's competitors. However, the Company believes that once the superior characteristics of the MCP tires have been properly communicated to the consumers, an increasingly large percentage of consumers will switch to the Company's tires. SOURCES AND AVAILABILITY OF RAW MATERIALS The materials needed to produce the Company's products are widely available from numerous third parties. No shortage of materials is expected in the foreseeable future. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT The Company constantly seeks to improve its MCP technology and develop new products. However, the Company does not anticipate that it will be required to commit any substantial funds for existing development projects or for new research and development. REGULATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE The Company is subject to general local, state and federal regulations governing environmental concerns. Management believes the Company has always been and continues to be in compliance with all such laws. EMPLOYEES As of April 28, 2003, the Company has 24 full-time employees. None of these employees are represented by a labor union. The Company considers its relations with its employees to be excellent. The Company may employ additional personnel, as necessary, to accommodate future expansion.

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES On January 2, 2001, February 2, 2001 and March 2, 2001, the Company issued 600,000 shares of its common stock, (for a total 1,800,000 shares), pursuant to the S-8 Registration Statement previously registered with the SEC, to third party outside consultants for services in developing products for import, such services valued at $180,000. 8 During the second fiscal quarter, the Company issued 4,200,000 shares of its common stock, pursuant to the S-8 Registration Statement previously registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, to four (4) third party outside consultants for services in developing products for import, such services valued at $420,000. The issuances were part of a plan conceived in January 2001 and implemented in this quarter. In June 2001, the Company issued 600,000 shares of its common stock, pursuant to the S-8 Registration Statement previously registered with the SEC, to third party outside consultants for services in developing products for import, such services valued at $60,000. On September 4, 2001, the Company merged with KIK, with the Company as the surviving corporation. The acquisition was consummated by the execution of a Share Exchange Agreement dated June 25, 2001. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Holders tendered to the Company all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of KIK in exchange for 16,700,000 shares of common stock of the Company. As a result of the foregoing transaction, there was a change in control of the Company. The previous shareholders of KIK now control the Company and hold approximately 69.6% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. On October 17, 2001, in connection with the acquisition of KIK, the Company canceled 6,775,000 shares of common stock of the Company. On October 30, 2001, in connection with the acquisition of KIK, the Company canceled 236,500 shares of common stock of the Company and reissued 63,500 shares of common stock of the Company. In October 2001, the Company issued 1,200,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock valued at $0.07 per share to two (2) entities for services rendered to the Company. In January 2002, the Company sold 85,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock to a private investor for $8,500, or $0.10 per share. Effective at the end of each quarter during Fiscal 2003, the Company and the holders of the two convertible notes agreed for the payment of accrued interest in restricted, unregistered common stock. During Fiscal 2003, the Company issued an aggregate 101,964 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock during Fiscal 2003 in payment of accrued interest. These transactions were valued at an aggregate approximately $6,978. The convertible note terms allow for the payment of accrued interest with restricted, unregistered common stock using an average value of 50% of the daily average of the market price of the common stock for the 30 calendar days preceding the interest due date. In two instances, the closing stock price, as discounted was at or in excess of the closing price on the settlement date. In two instances, the closing stock price on the settlement date was in excess of the prescribed calculation. The differential between the"fair value" and the settlement price resulted in a charge to operations of approximately $906 for compensation expense related to common stock issuances at less than "fair value". ITEM 6 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW During Fiscal 2003, the Company achieved revenues of approximately $3,156,000 as compared to approximately $2,567,000 for Fiscal 2002. These revenues were derived primarily from the sale of tire products. Net loss for the year ended January 31, 2003 was approximately $(12,700) as compared to a net loss of approximately ($179,000) for the year ended January 31, 2002. The net loss in 2002 included an extraordinary gain of approximately $203,000 resulting from the extinguishment of trade accounts payable that related to prior business operations. The net loss per share of common stock for Fiscal 2003 was approximately $0.00 per share and for Fiscal 2002 was approximately $0.01. 9 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes. YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 2003 AS COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 2002 The Company posted net sales of approximately $3,156,000 for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2003 as compared to net sales of approximately $2,567,000 for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2002. This increase reflects sales of the Company's tire products to both key customers and other new third party customers during the year as management made an effort to replace the business lost during Fiscal 2002. The Company's cost of sales increased by approximately $354,000 to approximately $2,600,000 for the year ended January 31, 2003 as compared to approximately $2,245,000 for the year ended January 31, 2002. This increase profiles favorably to the increase in sales volume during Fiscal 2003. Virtually all of the increase is directly attributable to increased raw material purchases. All other costs related to production were relatively stable during Fiscal 2003. The Company experienced a gross profit margin of approximately 17.71% (approximately $556,000) for Fiscal 2003 as compared to approximately 12.54% (approximately $322,000) for Fiscal 2002. General and administrative expenses dropped from approximately $712,000 for Fiscal 2002 to approximately $578,000 in Fiscal 2003. At the KIK operating subsidiary level, all general and administrative costs were virtually consistent (approximately $536,000 for Fiscal 2002 versus $525,000 for Fiscal 2003). The difference reflects various overhead expenses at the corporate administrative level which are subject to random fluctuation based upon business and overhead activities. YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 2002 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 2001 The Company posted net sales of approximately $2,567,000 during the year ended January 31, 2002 compared to approximately $3,715,000 for the year ended January 31, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to the loss in 2002 of a large customer contract for wheelbarrow tires and wheel assemblies. In 2001, sales for this particular product were approximately $1 million. In addition, there was also a decrease in sales during 2002 as a result of other customers cutting back on their parts inventories to combat recessionary pressures. The Company's cost of sales decreased by approximately $914,000 to $2,245,370 for the year ended January 31, 2002. This decrease relates to the decrease in sales. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales remained relatively consistent at approximately 87% in 2002 compared to 85% in 2001. Raw material costs in 2002 were 57 % of sales compared to 60% of sales in 2001. This decrease was a result of production efficiencies and reductions in product rejects from quality control procedures. Plant labor costs were reduced by approximately $86,000 compared to the previous period due to holding all manufacturing to a single shift per day, and by reducing overtime levels. Shipping costs were lower than the previous year due to the fact that a higher percentage of customers paid for their own freight. General and administrative expenses during the year ended January 31, 2002 were approximately $712,000 compared to approximately $528,000 for the year ended January 31, 2001. Three primary factors contributed to the $184,000 increase. The Company incurred approximately $93,000 in consulting expense during 2002. These services were primarily related to assistance required by the Company as a result of its new status as a public company. Professional fees incurred during 2002 included approximately $48,000 in legal expenses and accounting fees associated with the reverse acquisition that occurred in September 2001. Advertising expenses increased by approximately $35,000 during 2002 due to the Company contracting with a graphic arts specialist to modernize the Company's brochures, product data sheets, and advertising materials. The Company experienced a loss before extraordinary item of approximately $382,000 during the year ended January 31, 2002, compared to income of approximately $35,000 for the previous year. The aforementioned drop in sales due to the economic slowdown negatively impacted earnings. Additional factors included one-time expenses associated with the reverse acquisition transaction finalized in 2002. 10 The extraordinary gain of approximately $203,000 recognized in the fourth quarter of the year ended January 31, 2002 resulted from the extinguishment of trade accounts payable for which the Company's legal counsel has determined the statute of limitations has passed, thereby barring collection by the creditors. The Company's results of operations have and continue to fluctuate depending on, amongst other things, the mix of products sold; success of the Company's distributors in penetrating new markets; the timing and availability of products developed by the Company and/or requested by its customers; and general economic and political conditions. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $27,000 and $16,000 at January 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company maintained business liquidity and capital resources during the year adequate to fund all capital and operating expense requirements. Operations were primarily funded from internally generated funds, line of credit borrowings, and capital raised via a private placement of securities in previous years. For the years ended January 31, 2002 and 2001, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was approximately $18,000 and $(157,000), respectively. Net cash used in operating activities consists of cash received from sales of products to customers, less purchases of raw materials, payment of payroll and payment of other general operating expenses, including interest. Cash provided by (used in) investing activities was approximately $80,000 and $($76,000) for the years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Fiscal 2003 increase was attributable to the release of a $100,000 certificate of deposit pledged as collateral on a revolving line of credit which was retired during Fiscal 2003. The Fiscal 2002 cash utilization was mainly due to acquisition of equipment of $(22,000) and funding on a note receivable from the Company's President of approximately ($53,400). This note agreement with the President contains terms calling for the accrual of interest at 4% per year with principal and interest due on or before May 11, 2003. The Company experienced cash provided by (used in) financing activities of approximately $(89,000) in Fiscal 2003 compared to $107,000 for Fiscal 2002. The Fiscal 2003 usage was related principally to the retirement of the Company's line of credit with a financial institution. The Fiscal 2002 net fundings in this category were attributable to net borrowings on the Company's line of credit with a financial institution and the proceeds from the sale of convertible notes and warrants. The Company believes that sufficient cash will be generated internally to fund its operations for the next twelve months. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Financial Reporting Release No. 60, which was recently released by the Securities and Exchange Commission, requires all companies to include a discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of financial statements. Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements includes a summary of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. The following is a brief discussion of the more significant accounting policies and methods used by the Company. REVENUE RECOGNITION Our revenue recognition policy is significant because our revenue is a key component of our results of operations. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of tires and accessories. Revenue is recognized upon shipment to, or receipt by customers, depending upon contractual terms and when there is no significant uncertainty regarding the consideration to be received and the associated costs to be incurred. Additionally, we provide a reduction of recorded revenue for billing adjustments and billing corrections. 11 ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts based upon historical experience and specific customer collections issues that have been identified. Depending upon management's assessment of a customer's creditworthiness and order size, certain shipments are made on "COD" terms using common carriers. Since accounts receivable are concentrated in a relatively few customers, a significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of these customers could have a material adverse impact on the collectibility of the Company's accounts receivable and future operating results. In the event of complete non-performance by any customer or customers, the maximum exposure to the Company would be the recorded amount of trade accounts receivable shown on the balance sheet at the date of non-performance. INVENTORIES Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined principally on the average cost method. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on hand and records, when necessary, a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on the Company's estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements for the next twelve months. Demand for the Company's products can fluctuate significantly. A significant increase in the demand for the Company's products could result in a short-term increase in the cost of inventory purchases while a significant decrease in demand could result in an increase in the amount of excess inventory quantities on hand. In addition, the Company's industry is characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product development and rapid product obsolescence that could result in an increase in the amount of obsolete inventory quantities on hand. Additionally, the Company's estimate of future product demand may prove to be inaccurate, in which case the Company may have understated or overstated the provision required for excess and obsolete inventory. Therefore, although the Company makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of its forecasts of future product demand, any significant unanticipated changes in demand or technological developments could have a significant impact on the Company's inventory value and reported operating results. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, defines a fair-value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans and transactions in which an entity issues its equity instruments to acquire goods and services from non-employees, and encourages but does not require companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. For periods prior to November 1, 2002, the Company has chosen to account for employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB No. 25), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Accordingly, employee compensation cost for stock options and warrants is measured as the excess, if any, of the market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. This treatment was allowed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" (SFAS 123). In December 2002, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure" (SFAS 148). This statement amends SFAS 123 and provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. This statement also amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require more prominent and frequent disclosures in financial statements about the effects of stock compensation. The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS 148 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. Effective November 1, 2003, the first day of the reporting quarter including the effective date of SFAS 148, the Company's Board of Directors, in conjunction with public opinion and SFAS 148, elected to expense the imputed compensation cost related to any stock options granted during Fiscal 2003 and for future 12 periods. The Company did not issue any stock options during Fiscal 2003 and the adoption of SFAS 148 did not have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

(Remainder of this page left blank intentionally) 13 ITEM 8 - CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE On March 6, 2003, the Company notified its accountants, Horwath Gelfond Hochstadt Pangburn, P.C. of Denver, Colorado that they were being dismissed as the Company's independent auditors. The stated reasons were that the Company wanted to try to save audit costs and limit expenses. The Company's Board of Directors made the decision to change accountants. Financial statements audited by Horwath Gelfond Hochstadt Pangburn, P.C. did not contain any adjustment for uncertainties stated therein. The Company has had no disagreements with Horwath Gelfond Hochstadt Pangburn, P.C. on any matter of accounting principle or practice, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure. During the Company's past two (2) fiscal years and during any subsequent interim period preceding the date of dismissal, the Company has had no disagreements with Horwath Gelfond Hochstadt Pangburn, P.C. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure. The report of Horwath Gelfond Hochstadt Pangburn, P.C. on the financial statements for the past two (2) fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion nor a disclaimer of opinion nor was the report qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. On March 6, 2003, the Company received a letter from Horwath Gelfond Hochstadt Pangburn, P.C. that it agreed with the statements contained in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filing. On March 6, 2003, the Company engaged the firm of S. W. Hatfield, CPA of Dallas, Texas as the Company's independent auditors. Prior to such engagement, the Registrant had not consulted S. W. Hatfield, CPA on any prior matters, including any matters relative to the application of accounting principles or any subject of disagreement with Horwath, Gelfond, Hochstadt, Pangburn, P.C. On March 4, 2002, the Company notified its accountant, Rogelio G. Castro that he was being dismissed as the Company's independent auditor of record. The stated reason was that the Company would retain Horwath Gelfond Hochstadt Pangburn, P.C., the auditor of the Company's operating subsidiary as the auditor of the consolidated entity. This decision to change accountants was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. From the Registrant's inception (February 1, 2000) through December 31, 2000 and during subsequent interim periods preceding the date of dismissal, the company has had no disagreements with Rogelio G. Castro on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. F-8 KIK TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS KIK Technology International, Inc. (KTII) was incorporated on February 1, 2000 under the laws of the State of California as Russian-Imports.com. Russian-Imports.com was initially founded to develop an internet e-commerce website which would sell handmade lacquer boxes, Matroshka dolls and crystal imported from Russia. This venture was unsuccessful. On September 4, 2001, KTII (formerly Russian-Imports.com) issued 16,700,000 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock to KIK Tire Technologies, Inc. (a publicly-owned Canadian corporation) (KTTI) for 100.0% of the issued and outstanding stock of KIK Technology, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of KTTI). By virtue of this transaction, KIK Technology, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of KTII and KTTI became an approximate 73.6% shareholder in KTII. Concurrent with this transaction, Russian-Imports.com changed it's corporate name to KIK Technologies International, Inc. At the transaction date, KTII was a "shell company" as the Company had no assets or liabilities, had generated no revenues since inception and had incurred total expenses of approximately $940,000 since its inception on February 1, 2000 through the September 4, 2001 transaction. KIK Technology, Inc. (KIK) was incorporated in June 1988 under the laws of the State of California. KIK manufactures and markets an extensive and high quality line of off-highway micro-cellular polyurethane tires for the healthcare, light industrial, lawn and garden and recreational industries. KIK operates from a sole manufacturing plant and marketing offices located in Oceanside, CA. The Company's principal raw materials are purchased from a sole supplier who is also a major customer for the Company's products. In the event of any disruption in the availability of raw materials or a market for the Company's products purchased by this key supplier, the Company may experience a negative economic impact. The Company believes that suppliers of raw materials are available at comparable prices and management is seeking other avenues of distribution of the Company's products to consumers. Management is of the opinion that no interruption of either raw materials or product demand will occur. NOTE B - PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The acquisition of KIK Technology, Inc. (KTI), on September 4, 2001, by KTII effected a change in control of KTII and was accounted for as a "reverse acquisition" whereby KTI is the accounting acquiror for financial statement purposes. Accordingly, the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company are those of KTI from it's inception and those of the consolidated entity subsequent to the September 4, 2001 transaction date. The Company follows the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and has adopted a year-end of January 31. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. F-9 KIK TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED NOTE B - PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company's system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that 1) recorded transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being presented For segment reporting purposes, the Company operated in only one industry segment during the periods represented in the accompanying financial statements and makes all operating decisions and allocates resources based on the best benefit to the Company as a whole. These financial statements reflect the books and records of KIK Technology International, Inc. (formerly Russian-Imports.com) (KTII) and KIK Technology, Inc. (KTI) as of and for the years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated entities are referred to as Company. NOTE C - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 1. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For Statement of Cash Flows purposes, the Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents. Cash overdraft positions may occur from time to time due to the timing of making bank deposits and releasing checks, in accordance with the Company's cash management policies. 2. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND REVENUE RECOGNITION In the normal course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to virtually all of its customers which are located throughout the United States and are principally concentrated in the midwest region of the country. Depending upon management's assessment of creditworthiness and order size, certain shipments are made on "COD" terms using common carriers. Because of the credit risk involved, management has provided an allowance for doubtful accounts which reflects its opinion of amounts which will eventually become uncollectible. In the event of complete non-performance, the maximum exposure to the Company is the recorded amount of trade accounts receivable shown on the balance sheet at the date of non-performance. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of tires and accessories upon shipment to, or receipt by customers, depending upon contractual terms and when there is no significant uncertainty regarding the consideration to be received and the associated costs to be incurred. Additionally, the Company recognizes reductions of recorded revenue for product returns from unsatisfied customers and other billing adjustments or corrections, at the point that the returned products are received by the Company or upon the completion of negotiations between the Company and it's customer. F-10 KIK TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED NOTE C - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED 3. INVENTORY Inventory consists of raw materials, principally chemical feedstocks, and finished goods, principally tires and accessories manufactured by the Company and other minor miscellaneous items purchased from third-party vendors for resale as a component of the Company's products. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market value, using principally the average cost method. 4. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost. These costs are depreciated over the estimated useful lives, generally two (2) to seven (7) years, of the individual assets using the straight-line method. Gains and losses from the disposition of property and equipment are included in operations as incurred. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the Company follows the policy of evaluating all property and equipment as of the end of each reporting quarter. For each of the years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002, no charges to operations were made for impairments in the future benefit of property and equipment. 5. DEFERRED DEBT ISSUE COSTS Deferred debt issue costs represent monies paid investment bankers and legal counsel in connection with the $75,000 in convertible notes payable. These costs are amortized as a component of operations over the life of the underlying debt instrument using the straight line method. 6. INCOME TAXES The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. At January 31, 2003 and 2002, the deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability accounts, as recorded when material to the financial statements, are entirely the result of temporary differences. Temporary differences represent differences in the recognition of assets and liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes, primarily accumulated depreciation and amortization, allowance for doubtful accounts and vacation accruals. As of January 31, 2003 and 2002, the deferred tax asset related to the Company's net operating loss carryforward is fully reserved. 7. ADVERTISING COSTS The Company does not conduct any direct response advertising activities. For non-direct response advertising, the Company charges the costs of these efforts to operations at the first time the related advertising is published. F-11 KIK TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED NOTE C - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED 8. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents (primarily outstanding options and warrants). Common stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of the outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method. The calculation of fully diluted earnings (loss) per share assumes the dilutive effect of the exercise of outstanding options and warrants at either the beginning of the respective period presented or the date of issuance, whichever is later. As of January 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company's issued and outstanding, warrants, options and convertible debt are considered antidilutive due to the Company's net operating loss position. 9. EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTIONS For periods prior to November 1, 2002, the Company has chosen to account for employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB No. 25), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Accordingly, employee compensation cost for stock options and warrants is measured as the excess, if any, of the market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. This treatment was allowed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" (SFAS 123). In December 2002, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 "Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure" (SFAS 148). This statement amends SFAS 123 and provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock- based employee compensation. This statement also amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require more prominent and frequent disclosures in financial statements about the effects of stock-based compensation. The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS 148 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. Effective November 1, 2003, the first day of the reporting quarter including the effective date of SFAS 148, the Company's Board of Directors, in conjunction with public opinion and SFAS 148, elected to expense the imputed compensation cost related to any stock options granted during Fiscal 2003 and for future periods. The Company did not issue any stock options during Fiscal 2003 and the adoption of SFAS 148 did not have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. 10. NEW AND PENDING ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (" SFAS") No. 141 "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141, among other things, eliminates the pooling of interests method of accounting for business acquisitions entered into after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires companies to use a fair-value approach to determine whether there is impairment of existing and future goodwill. In August 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets". SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" and APB No. 30 "Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions" and combines the two accounting models into a single model based on the framework established in SFAS No. 121. We were required to implement these pronouncements for the fiscal year beginning June 1, 2002. The implementation of these pronouncements did not have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. F-12 KIK TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED NOTE C - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED 10. NEW AND PENDING ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, FASB also issued SFAS No. 143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" that addresses asset retirement obligations that result from the acquisition, construction or normal operation of long-lived assets. It requires companies to recognize asset retirement obligations as a liability when the liability is incurred at its fair value. There was no impact on our results of operations or financial condition as a result of the adoption of the standard. In April 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 145 "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections". SFAS No. 13 is amended to eliminate any inconsistency between the required accounting for sale leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to leaseback transactions. This statement also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. We will be required to adopt this standard in our fiscal year beginning June 1, 2003. We do not believe that there will be a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition as a result of the adoption of this standard. In June 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 146 "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". This statement requires recording costs associated with exit or disposal activities at their fair value when a liability has been incurred. Under previous guidance, certain exit costs were accrued upon management's commitment to an exit plan, which is generally before an actual liability has been incurred. The provisions of this statement are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. This standard will not have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN45") "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others". This interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that is has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The disclosure requirements and initial measurement requirements of FIN45 are effective prospectively for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. We are not a party to any agreement in which we are a guarantor of indebtedness of others. Accordingly, the pronouncement is currently not applicable to us. NOTE D - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable, as applicable, approximates fair value due to the short term nature of these items and/or the current interest rates payable in relation to current market conditions. Interest rate risk is the risk that the Company's earnings are subject to fluctuations in interest rates on either investments or on debt and is fully dependent upon the volatility of these rates. The Company does not use derivative instruments to moderate its exposure to interest rate risk, if any. Financial risk is the risk that the Company's earnings are subject to fluctuations in interest rates or foreign exchange rates and are fully dependent upon the volatility of these rates. The company does not use derivative instruments to moderate its exposure to financial risk, if any. F-13 KIK TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED NOTE E - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK The Company and its KIK subsidiary maintain their respective cash accounts in financial institutions subject to insurance coverage issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Under FDIC rules, the Company and its subsidiaries are entitled to aggregate coverage of $100,000 per account type per separate legal entity per financial institution. During the years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, the various operating companies had deposits in a financial institution with credit risk exposures in excess of statutory FDIC coverage. The Company has incurred no losses during Fiscal 2003 or 2002 as a result of any of these unsecured situations. NOTE F - INVENTORIES Inventories consist of the following at January 31, 2003: January 31, 2003 -------- Raw materials $ 57,271 Finished goods 244,140 -------- Total $301,411 ======== NOTE G - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment consists of the following at January 31, 2003: January 31, 2003 Estimated life -------- -------------- Machinery and Equipment $530,039 7 years Office furniture and fixtures 23,284 5 years Leasehold improvements 14,180 2 years Vehicles 9,279 5 years -------- 576,782 Less accumulated depreciation (438,239) -------- Net property and equipment $138,543 ======== Depreciation expense for the years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002 was approximately $37,480 and $44,148, respectively. NOTE H - RESTRICTED CASH As collateral for a $100,000 line of credit at KIK's principal financial institution, KIK placed and pledged a $100,000 certificate of deposit as collateral. This amount was released and returned to KIK upon the repayment and termination of the line of credit. F-14 KIK TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED NOTE I - NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM OFFICER In May 2001, the Company loaned $53,400 to its President. The loan bears interest at 4.0% annually and is unsecured. All principal and unpaid interest are due upon maturity in May 2003. Pursuant to the provisions of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, this loan may not be renewed or extended upon maturity. NOTE J - NOTES PAYABLE TO INVESTORS Pursuant to the terms of a private placement agreement, the Company attempted to raise up to $600,000 through the placement of two-year senior notes bearing interest at 10% payable quarterly. This Private Placement Memorandum was terminated by the Company during the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2002. In November 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with an investment banker whereby the investment banker would act as exclusive dealer-manager in this private placement of securities to be issued by the Company pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As compensation, the investment banker was paid $15,000 for professional fees and will receive a commission equal to 10% of the gross proceeds, an expense allowance equal to 4% of the gross proceeds and, for every $500,000 raised, 150,000 shares of the Company's restricted, unregistered common stock. Such shares will be issued upon completion of the private placement. In addition, the investment banker will have the option to nominate one person to the Company's Board of Directors if at least $2,000,000 is raised. As of the termination of this Private Placement Memorandum, only $75,000 had been successfully raised. Note holders can elect, with the consent of the Company, to accept Company common stock in lieu of cash interest payments. Such payments in stock would be calculated at 50% of the daily average of the market price of the common stock for the 30-calendar days preceding the interest due date. After six months from the date of issue of the notes, the Company can convert the notes to common stock if the daily average market price of the Company's common stock for any 30-calendar days after the initial six-month period equals or exceeds $1.00. The conversion of the notes to common stock would also be calculated at 50% of the daily average market price for the 30 days prior to the Company giving notice of its plan to convert. In conjunction with the offering of the notes, each note holder was given one warrant for each $1.00 invested. Each warrant allows the holder to purchase one share of the Company's common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.60 per share, and is exercisable for two years. In March 2002, the Company repriced the outstanding warrants to an exercise price of $0.40 per share. Pursuant to the private placement, the Company sold a $50,000 convertible note on November 12, 2001 and a $25,000 convertible note on December 26, 2001 to two unrelated investors. Warrants to purchase a combined total of 75,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $0.60 per share were also issued to the investors. The warrants were valued at $11,789 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and therefore $11,789 of the total debt proceeds of $75,000 was allocated to the warrants, resulting in a discount on the notes, which will be amortized to interest expense over the term of the underlying debt. During the years ended January 31, 2003 and 2002, approximately $5,900 and $1,100 of the discount was amortized to interest expense. The weighted average assumptions utilized to value the warrants using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model were as follows: Expected life of the option: The initial life of the corresponding option, generally two (2) years Expected volatility in the Company's stock price: 150.0%, which was based on fluctuations of the Company's stock price over the past Fiscal year. Expected dividends: Zero (0.00) based on past performance F-15 KIK TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED NOTE J - NOTES PAYABLE TO INVESTORS - CONTINUED Anticipated risk free interest rate: Estimated to be 2.80%. The convertible notes contained a beneficial conversion feature valued at a combined total of approximately $63,000. However, because the conversion features are fully contingent upon the occurrence of certain future events, the Company did not record a discount resulting from the beneficial conversion feature. The aggregate maturities of the notes are as follows: Year ending January 31, 2004 $ 75,000 Less unamortized discount (4,775) -------- Balance at January 31, 2003 $ 70,225 ======== The Company recognized interest expense related to the line of credit and notes payable of approximately $16,000 and $8,700 for the years ended January 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
