ITEM 2.01: COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS On February 27, 2006, we acquired eighty percent (80%) of the outstanding capital stock of ATN Capital & Participacoes Ltda. or ATN, a Brazilian limited company, pursuant to a share exchange agreement among the Company, ATN, Omar Malheiro Silva Araujo and Manuel da Costa Fraguas, the two stockholders of ATN or ATN Stockholders. As consideration to the acquisition of ATN, we issued 2,000,000 shares of our common stock to the two ATN Stockholders. As a result, Upon the consummation of such share exchange, the ATN Stockholders became holders of 23.72% of our common stock and ATN became our 80% majority-owned subsidiary. None of the ATN Stockholders had any prior relationship with us, our affiliates, any of our directors or officers or any of their associates. FORM 10-SB DISCLOSURE As disclosed elsewhere in this report, on February 27, 2006, we acquired 80% of the outstanding capital stock of ATN. Item 2.01(f) of Form 8-K states that if the registrant was a shell company like we were immediately before the transaction disclosed under Item 2.01 (i.e., the acquisition transaction), then the registrant must disclose the information that would be required if the registrant were filing a general form for registration of securities on Form 10 or, as in our case, Form 10-SB. Accordingly, we are providing below the information that would be included in a Form 10-SB if ATN were to file a Form 10-SB. Please note that the information provided below relates to the combined Company after the acquisition of ATN, except that information relating to periods prior to the date of the acquisition only relate to Lexicon United Incorporated unless otherwise specifically indicated. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Our History Our corporate name is Lexicon United Incorporated. We were incorporated in the state of Delaware on July 17, 2001. During the period from our inception through February 27, 2006, we had no operations other than organizational matters and conducting a search for an appropriate acquisition target. On February 27, 2006, we acquired an eighty percent equity interest in ATN Capital & Participacoes Ltda., a Brazilian limited company, pursuant to a share exchange agreement among us, ATN and the two stockholders of ATN. Pursuant to the share exchange agreement, we issued to ATN's two stockholders 2,000,000 shares of our common stock in the aggregate (constituting 23.72% of our outstanding common stock). As a result of the share exchange, ATN became our majority-owned subsidiary. Accordingly, our current operations consist solely of those conducted by our majority-owned subsidiary, ATN. ATN was incorporated in Brazil in April 1997. ATN is a consumer receivables company that specializes in the management and servicing of consumer receivables for third parties in Brazil. The information contained in this report about our business reflects the historical business of ATN. 1 Our Business Generally We have been in the collection business for over 8 years. We provide a wide range of accounts receivable management services to our clients. Our focus is on the recovery of delinquent accounts (generally, accounts that are 60 days or more past due). We generate revenue from the recovery of delinquent accounts receivable on a contingency fee basis. Our contingent fees typically are around 15 percent of the amounts recovered on behalf of our clients. Our average fee for contingency-based revenue was approximately 15 percent during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. We do not acquire accounts receivable for our own account. Our services are limited to managing the recovery of accounts receivable for our third-party clients. The types of receivables that we generally manage include charged-off receivables, which are accounts receivable that have been written-off by the originators and may have been previously serviced by collection agencies and semi-performing receivables, which are accounts receivable where the debtor is currently making partial or irregular monthly payments, but the accounts may have been written-off by the originators. An Overview of Our Industry The servicing and collection of charged-off and semi-performing consumer receivables in Brazil is a growing industry that is driven by: o increasing levels of consumer debt; o increasing defaults of the underlying receivables; and o increasing utilization of third-party providers to collect such receivables. According to financial bulletins, consumer credit in Brazil has been increasing at an annual rate of 15 percent on average and the credit card market will be steadily growing. We believe that as a result of the difficulty in collecting these receivables and the desire of originating institutions to focus on their core businesses and to generate revenue from these receivables, originating institutions are increasingly electing to outsource the servicing of these receivables. Strategy Our primary objective is to utilize our management's experience and expertise to effectively grow our business by identifying, evaluating and servicing consumer receivable portfolios and maximizing collections of such receivables in a cost efficient manner. Our strategy includes utilizing the systemization of our operations to reduce overhead costs and to provide intensive training to our call center representatives to increase our percentage of successful account receivable collections. Our management team also includes statisticians that have developed models that guide our collection efforts and assist us in deciding the extent to which we believe we can successfully recover a charged-off or semi-performing receivable. Our Services Engagement Planning. Our approach to accounts receivable management and collection for each client is determined by a number of factors, including account size and demographics, the client's specific requirements and management's estimate of the collectibility of the account. We have standard accounts receivable management and collection methods that we employ to collect accounts receivable. These methods were developed based on our 8 years of experience in this industry. In order to properly serve our customers we carefully study our customer's account receivable needs and employ the proper collection method for each particular client. In most cases, our approach to accounts receivable collection changes over time as the relationship with the client develops and both parties evaluate 2 the most effective means of recovering accounts receivable. Our standard approach, which may be tailored to the specialized requirements of each client, defines and controls the steps that will be undertaken by us on behalf of the client and the manner in which we will report data to the client. Through our systematic approach to accounts receivable management and collection, we remove most decision making from the recovery staff and ensure uniform, cost-effective performance. Once the approach has been defined, we transfer pertinent client data into our information system. When the client's records have been established in our system, we begin the recovery process. Account Notification. We initiate the recovery process by forwarding a preliminary letter that is designed to seek payment of the amount due or open a dialogue with client's customers who cannot afford to pay at the current time. Telephone representatives remind the client's customer of their obligation, inform them that their account has been placed for collection with us and begin a dialogue to develop a friendly payment program. Determination of Obligor Contact Data. In cases where the client's customer's contact information is unknown, we conduct research through the "CreditLink" system to determine a means of contacting the customer debtor. "CreditLink" is a paid service that assists with investigations into customer contact information, and costs approximately $300 per month. Once we have located the client's customer, the notification process can begin. Payment Process. After we receive payment from the client's customer, depending on the terms of our contract with the client, we can either remit the amount received minus our fee to the client or remit the entire amount received to the client and subsequently bill the client for our collection services. Activity Reports. Clients are provided with a system-generated set of customized reports that fully describe all account activity and current status. These reports are typically generated daily; however, the information included in the report and the frequency that the reports are generated can be modified to meet the needs of the client. Quality Tracking. We emphasize quality control throughout all phases of the accounts receivable management and collection process. Some clients may specify an enhanced level of supervisory review and others may request customized quality reports. Large financial services organizations will typically have exacting performance standards which require sophisticated capabilities, such as documented complaint tracking. Collection Strategy At the outset of each engagement, we perform a collectibility analysis utilizing information prepared by our statisticians. This analysis is the basis for our collection efforts and dictates our strategy for any particular receivable or group of receivables. We continuously refine this analysis to determine the most effective collection strategy to pursue for each account. Our collection strategies consist of: o Call Centers. We maintain an inbound and outbound collection call center at ATN's executive offices in Rio De Janeiro in Brazil. Our collections department is divided into two client teams, each team consisting of a collection manager and six or seven collection supervisors, each assigned to an individual client. Each collection supervisor is in charge of anywhere from 4 to 15 collectors. Collectors are trained to use a friendly but firm approach to assess the willingness of the customer to pay. They attempt to work with customers to evaluate sources and means of repayment to achieve a full or negotiated lump sum settlement or develop payment programs customized to the individual's ability to pay. In cases where a payment plan is developed, collectors encourage debtors to pay through automatic payment arrangements, if available. 3 o Legal Action. We generally outsource those accounts where it appears the debtor is able but unwilling to pay. We utilize lawyers that are independent from us, but who are located on our premises. These lawyers specialize in collection matters and we pay them a contingency fee on amounts collected. The name of the firm that we use is Andrada & Negreiros Associates. Prior to sending accounts to the law firm, our collectors communicate to the debtor our intention to have a lawyer evaluate the suitability of the account for litigation if payment arrangements cannot be established. o Direct Mail. We have an in-house marketing team that develops mail campaigns. The mail campaigns generally offer debtors targeted discounts on their balance owed to encourage settlement of their accounts and provide us with a low cost recovery method. o Removal from Restricted Lists. There are two restrictions imposed upon debtors in Brazil that fail to pay their debts when they come due. The first is called "Serasa", which is a restriction imposed by every Brazilian bank. Such debtor's names are put on the Serasa restricted list and no Brazilian Bank will provide them credit. The second restricted list is called "SPC", which is a restriction imposed by Brazilian merchants. Once a debtor's name is put on the SPC list, merchants will no longer provide the debtor with credit. Once we agree with the debtor on a payment program and the debtor makes the first installment towards such program, we notify our client that a payment has been made. The client then causes such debtor's name to be removed from such lists. The removal of a debtor's name from such lists is very beneficial to the debtor, who may then be able to obtain limited credit and who no longer has to suffer the other negative social effects of being on such lists. Technology and Infrastructure Our customer contact center utilizes the NEO system. Our Information Technology staff is comprised of approximately four employees. We provide our services through the operation of our main call center, located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, which utilizes 140 persons, and two smaller call centers: one located in Vitoria, Brazil, using about 15 people, and the other located in Niteroi, using about two people. We maintain disaster recovery contingency plans and have implemented procedures to protect against the loss of data resulting from power outages, fire and other casualties. We believe fast recovery and continuous operation are ensured. We spent approximately $30,000 and $35,000 on research and development activities during fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Quality Assurance and Client Service In the accounts receivable management industry, a company's reputation for quality service is of the utmost importance. We regularly measure the quality of our services by capturing and reviewing such information as the amount of time spent talking with clients' customers, level of customer complaints and operating performance. In order to provide ongoing improvement to our telephone representatives' performance and to ensure compliance with our policies and standards, quality assurance personnel supervise each telephone representative on a frequent basis and provide ongoing training to the representative based on this review. We maintain a client service department to promptly address client issues and questions and alert senior executives of potential problems that require their attention. In addition to addressing specific issues, a team of client service representatives contacts clients on a regular basis in order to establish a close rapport, determine clients' overall level of satisfaction, and identify practical methods of improving their satisfaction. 4 Major Customers We have approximately 15 clients. Unibanco accounts for approximately 40% of our revenues. Personnel and Training All of our call center personnel receive comprehensive training that instructs in each of the following topics: o how to use the system; o how to communicate with the client; o scripts; and o role playing. These programs are conducted through a combination of classroom and role-playing sessions. New employees receive training on how to use our operating systems and on how to approach clients. Special orientations are also given out to employees on the respect of customer's codes and how to respect creditors' rights. Various upgrades and incentives are closely monitored by our human resource supervisor, including an upscale gradual commission that is awarded to each employee reaches at least 70% of the targeted performance. As of January 15, 2006, we had a total of approximately 113 full-time employees and 41 trainees and 24 cooperatives. Our employees are not represented by a labor union. We believe that our relations with our employees are satisfactory. Sales and Marketing Our sales force is comprised of ATN's senior management team, which markets our accounts receivable services to potential clients. Competition The accounts receivable management and collection industry in Brazil is highly competitive. We compete with a large number account receivable management providers, including Sincred, Mastercob and Easycob. Some of our competitors may offer more diversified services and/or operate in broader geographic areas than we do. In addition, many companies perform accounts receivable management services through their own in-house staff. Moreover, many larger clients retain multiple outsourcing providers, which exposes us to continuous competition in order to remain a preferred vendor. We believe that the primary competitive factors in obtaining and retaining clients are the ability to provide customized solutions to a client's requirements, personalized quality service, sophisticated call and information systems, and price. Regulation The accounts receivable management industry in Brazil is regulated by Brazil Consumer Defense Code (Law 8078 of September 11, 1990). The Consumer Defense Code is a regulatory entity designed to maintain a standard procedure to protect the privacy and rights of the debtors. It is intended to limit and outline the collection procedure so that such procedure remains within acceptable commercial practice. No pressure or harassment is permitted. We believe that we are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable regulations. RISK FACTORS Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below before you purchase any of our common stock. If any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In this event you could lose all or part of your investment. 5 Financial Risks We only have approximately $1,000,000 in cash and if we are unable to raise more money we will be required to delay, scale back or eliminate our marketing and development programs. As of February 24, 2006, we had approximately $1,000,000 in cash available to fund our operations, which includes cash held by both Lexicon and ATN on a consolidated basis. The amounts and timing of our expenditures will depend primarily on our ability to raise additional capital. We may seek to satisfy our future funding requirements through new offerings of securities or from other sources, including loans from our controlling stockholders. Additional financing may not be available when needed or on terms acceptable to us. We have no current commitment for additional financing. Unavailability of financing may require us to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our marketing and development programs. To the extent we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, your ownership interest would be diluted. Risks Relating To Our Business Our business is dependent on our ability to grow internally. Our business is dependent on our ability to grow internally, which is dependent upon: o Our ability to retain existing clients and expand our existing client relationships; and o Our ability to attract new clients. Our ability to retain existing clients and expand those relationships is subject to a number of risks, including the risk that: o We fail to maintain the quality of services we provide to our clients; o We fail to maintain the level of attention expected by our clients; o We fail to successfully leverage our existing client relationships to sell additional services; and o We fail to provide competitively priced services to our clients Our ability to attract new clients is subject to a number of risks, including: o The market acceptance of our service offerings; o The quality and effectiveness of our sales personnel; and o The competitive factors within the accounts receivable management industry in Brazil. If our efforts to retain and expand our client relationships and to attract new clients do not prove effective, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. If we are not able to respond to technological changes in telecommunications and computer systems in a timely manner, we may not be able to remain competitive. Our success depends in large part on our sophisticated telecommunications and computer systems. We use these systems to identify and contact large numbers of debtors and record the results of our collection efforts. If we are not able to respond to technological changes in telecommunications and computer systems in a timely manner, we may not be able to remain competitive. We anticipate that it will be necessary to invest in technology in the future to remain competitive. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, we invested approximately $40,000 and $50,000 in technology, respectively. We expect that in future years we will have to invest similar amounts in technology. Telecommunications and computer technologies are changing rapidly and are characterized by short product life cycles, so we must anticipate technological developments. If we are not successful in anticipating, managing, or adopting technological changes on a timely basis or if we do not have the capital resources available to invest in new technologies, our business could be materially adversely affected. We are highly dependent on our telecommunications and computer systems. As noted above, our business is highly dependent on our telecommunications and computer systems. These systems could be interrupted by terrorist acts, natural disasters, power losses, or similar events. Our business is also materially dependent on services provided by various local telephone companies. If our equipment or systems cease to work or become unavailable, or if there is any 6 significant interruption in telephone services, we may be prevented from providing services. Because we generally recognize revenue only as accounts receivables are collected, any failure or interruption of services would mean that we would continue to incur payroll and other expenses without any corresponding income. An increase in communication rates or a significant interruption in communication service could harm our business. Our ability to offer services at competitive rates is highly dependent upon the cost of communication services provided by various local telephone companies. Any change in the telecommunications market that would affect our ability to obtain favorable rates on communication services could harm our business. Moreover, any significant interruption in communication service or developments that could limit the ability of telephone companies to provide us with increased capacity in the future could harm existing operations and prospects for future growth. We compete with a large number of providers in the accounts receivable and collection industry in Brazil. This competition could have a materially adverse effect on our future financial results. In the accounts receivable management and service industry in Brazil, we compete with sizable corporations, as well as many regional and local firms. We may lose business to competitors that offer more diversified services and/or operate in broader geographic areas than we do. We may also lose business to regional or local firms who are able to use their proximity to or contacts with local clients as a marketing advantage. In addition, many companies perform the accounts receivable management services offered by us in-house. Many larger clients retain multiple accounts receivable service providers, which exposes us to continuous competition in order to remain a preferred provider. Because of this competition, in the future we may have to reduce our fees to remain competitive and this competition could have a materially adverse effect on our future financial results. Many of our clients are concentrated in the financial services sector. If this sector performs poorly or if there are any adverse trends in this sector it could materially adversely affect us. For the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, we derived approximately 100 percent of our revenue from clients in the financial services sector. If this sector performs poorly, clients in this sector may do less business with us, or they may elect to perform the services provided by us in-house. If there are any trends in this sector to reduce or eliminate the use of third-party accounts receivable service providers, it could harm our business. All of our operations take place in Brazil. Various factors relating to our Brazilian operations could affect our performance, including fluctuations in currency exchange rates. All of our revenues are derived from Brazil. Political or economic instability in Brazil could have an adverse impact on our results of operations due to diminished revenues. Our future revenue, costs of operations and profit results could also be affected by a number of other factors related to our Brazilian operations, including changes in economic conditions in Brazil, changes in a country's political condition, trade protection measures, licensing and other legal requirements, and local tax issues. Unanticipated currency fluctuations in the Brazilian Real could lead to lower reported consolidated results of operations due to the translation of these currencies into U.S. dollars when we consolidate our financial results. We provide accounts receivable collection and management services to our Brazilian clients utilizing Brazilian labor sources. A decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar in relation to the Brazilian Real could increase our cost of doing business in Brazil. Our success depends on our senior management team and the senior management team of our operating subsidiary, ATN, and if we are not able to retain them, it could have a materially adverse effect on us. We are highly dependent upon the continued services and experience of our senior management team. We depend on the services of our senior management team to, among other things, continue the development and implementation of our growth strategies, and maintain and develop our client relationships. 7 We are dependent on our employees and a higher turnover rate would have a material adverse effect on us. We are dependent on our ability to attract, hire and retain qualified employees. The Brazilian accounts receivable service and management industry, by its nature, is labor intensive and experiences a high employee turnover rate. Many of our employees receive modest hourly wages and some of these employees are employed on a part-time basis. A higher turnover rate among our employees would increase our recruiting and training costs and could materially adversely impact the quality of services we provide to our clients. If we were unable to recruit and retain a sufficient number of employees, we would be forced to limit our growth or possibly curtail our operations. Growth in our business will require us to recruit and train qualified personnel at an accelerated rate from time to time. We cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to hire, train and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees to meet the needs of our business or to support our growth. If we are unable to do so, our results of operations could be harmed. Any increase in hourly wages, costs of employee benefits or employment taxes in Brazil could also have a materially adverse affect. We may experience variations from quarter to quarter in operating results and net income that could adversely affect the price of our common stock. Factors that could cause quarterly fluctuations include, among other things, the following: o The timing of our clients' accounts receivable collection programs and the commencement of new contracts and termination of existing contracts; o Customer contracts that require us to incur costs in periods prior to recognizing revenue under those contracts; o The effects of a change of business mix on profit margins; o The timing of additional selling, general and administrative expenses to support new business; o Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; o The amount and timing of new business; and o That our business tends to be slower during summer and holiday seasons. Most of our accounts receivable management contracts do not require clients to place accounts with us, may be terminated on 30 or 60 days notice and are on a contingent fee basis. We cannot guarantee that existing clients will continue to use our services at historical levels, if at all. Under the terms of most of our accounts receivable management contracts, clients are not required to give accounts to us for collection and usually have the right to terminate our services on 30 or 60 days notice. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that existing clients will continue to use our services at historical levels, if at all. In addition, most of these contracts provide that we are entitled to be paid only when we collect accounts. Therefore, under applicable accounting principles, we can recognize revenues only upon the collection of funds on behalf of clients. We rely on our client Unibanco for a significant portion of our revenues. The loss of Unibanco as our client or its failure to pay us could reduce revenues and adversely affect results of our operations. We receive approximately 35 percent of our revenues from our client Unibanco. We are exposed to customer concentration and Unibanco is not contractually obligated to continue to use our services at historic levels or at all, subject only to notice periods for termination. If Unibanco were to significantly reduce the amount of service, fail to pay, or terminate the relationship altogether, our business could be harmed. We have engaged in transactions with members of our Board of Directors, significant stockholders, and entities affiliated with them; future transactions with related parties could pose conflicts of interest. In the past, we have engaged in transactions with members of our Board of Directors, significant stockholders, and entities affiliated with them, which inherently give rise to conflicts of interest. For example, certain of these parties have previously provided debt financing to us and have received additional equity interests, such as shares of our stock upon the conversion of such debt financing. Transactions with related parties such as these pose a risk that such transactions are on terms that are not as beneficial to us as those that may be arranged with third parties. 8 Concentrated Control Rirsk The management team collectively has the power to make all major decisions regarding the company without the need to get consent from any stockholder or other person. Our management team, including the management of our subsidiary, ATN, collectively owns 95.70% of the outstanding common stock. Management, therefore, has the power to make all major decisions regarding our affairs, including decisions regarding whether or not to issue stock and for what consideration, whether or not to sell all or substantially all of our assets and for what consideration and whether or not to authorize more stock for issuance or otherwise amend our charter or bylaws. The management team is in a position to elect all of our directors and to dictate all of our policies. Market Risks There has been no established public trading market for our common stock. If a market in our stock is ever developed, our stock price may become highly volatile. Since we are relatively thinly capitalized and our stock is a penny stock, if a market in our stock is ever developed, our stock price may become highly volatile. There has been no established public trading market for our common stock and, none of our shares are currently eligible for sale in a public trading market. The likely market for our stock would be the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board or the Pink Sheets. As a result, investors may find it difficult to dispose of our securities, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of our securities This lack of information limits the liquidity of our common stock, and likely will have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and on our ability to raise additional capital. If an active trading market does develop, the market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile due to, among other things, the relatively low revenue nature of our business and because we are a thinly capitalized company. Further, even if a public market develops, the volume of trading in our common stock will presumably be limited and likely be dominated by a few individual stockholders. The limited volume, if any, will make the price of our common stock subject to manipulation by one or more stockholders and will significantly limit the number of shares that one can purchase or sell in a short period of time. The equity markets have, on occasion, experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market prices for many companies' securities that have often been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. Any such fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. As a result, stockholders may be unable to sell their shares, or may be forced to sell them at a loss. We do not intend to pay dividends to our stockholders, so you will not receive any return on your investment in our company prior to selling your interest in us. We have never paid any dividends to our stockholders. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for funding growth and, therefore, do not expect to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. If we determine that we will pay dividends to the holders of our common stock, we cannot assure that such dividends will be paid on a timely basis. As a result, you will not receive any return on your investment prior to selling your shares in our company and, for the other reasons discussed in this "Risk Factors" section, you may not receive any return on your investment even when you sell your shares in our company and your shares may become worthless. 9 A significant number of our shares will be eligible for sale and their sale or potential sale may depress the market price of our common stock. Sales of a significant number of shares of our common stock in the public market could harm the market price of our common stock. We have authorized 40,000,000 shares of common stock. As of February 24, 2006, we had outstanding 8,456,250 shares of common stock. Accordingly, we have 31,543,750 shares of common stock available for future sale. Because our stock is considered a penny stock, any investment in our stock is considered to be a high-risk investment and is subject to restrictions on marketability. Our common stock is a "penny stock" within the meaning of Rule 15g-9 to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which is generally an equity security with a price of less than $5.00. Our common stock is subject to rules that impose sales practice and disclosure requirements on certain broker-dealers who engage in certain transactions involving a penny stock. Under the penny stock regulations, a broker-dealer selling penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or "accredited investor" must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and must receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the sale, unless the broker-dealer is otherwise exempt. Generally, an individual with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 individually or $300,000 together with his or her spouse is considered an accredited investor. In addition, the penny stock regulations require the broker-dealer to: o deliver, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt; o disclose commissions payable to the broker-dealer and the Registered Representative and current bid and offer quotations for the securities; and o send monthly statements disclosing recent price information with respect to the penny stock held in a customer's account, the account's value and information regarding the limited market in penny stocks. Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may encounter difficulties in their attempt to sell shares of our common stock, which may affect the ability of holders of our capital stock to sell their shares in the secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our securities. In addition, the liquidity of our securities may be decreased, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our securities. Our common stock in all probability will be subject to such penny stock rules and our stockholders will, in all likelihood, find it difficult to sell their securities. Certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Delaware law may make it more difficult for a third party to effect a change- in-control. Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the Board of Directors to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined at the time of issuance by the Board of Directors without further action by the stockholders. These terms may include voting rights including the right to vote as a series on particular matters, preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion rights, redemption rights and sinking fund provisions. The issuance of any preferred stock could diminish the rights of holders of our common stock, and therefore could reduce the value of such common stock. In addition, specific rights granted to future holders of preferred stock could be used to restrict our ability to merge with, or sell assets to, a third party. The ability of the Board of Directors to issue preferred stock could make it more difficult, delay, discourage, prevent or make it more costly to acquire or effect a change-in-control. In addition, we are also subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law that, subject to certain exceptions, prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder. The preceding provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation, as well as Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, could discourage potential acquisition proposals, delay or prevent a change-in-control and prevent changes in our management, even if such things would be in the best interests of our stockholders. 10 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION ND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Our Business Overview General We are engaged in the business of managing and servicing accounts receivables for large financial institutions in Brazil. Our focus is on the recovery of delinquent accounts (generally, accounts that are 60 days or more past due). We generate revenue from the recovery of delinquent accounts receivable on a contingency fee basis. Our contingent fees typically are around 15 percent of the amounts recovered on behalf of our clients. Our average fee for contingency-based revenue was approximately 15 percent during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. We do not acquire accounts receivable for our own account, however, we may do so in the future if we are able to raise sufficient capital for this purpose. Our services are currently limited to managing the recovery of accounts receivable for our third-party clients. The portfolios of consumer receivables that we service consist of one or more of the following types of consumer receivables: o charged-off receivables - accounts that have been written-off by the originators and may have been previously serviced by collection agencies; o semi-performing receivables - accounts where the debtor is making partial or irregular monthly payments, but the accounts may have been written-off by the originators; and o performing receivables - accounts where the debtor is making regular monthly payments that may or may not have been delinquent in the past.

Net Revenues increased due primarily to increased collections of receivables from our service portfolios from our customers. 11 The Cost of Sales increase was primarily due to an increase in servicing costs. The increase in receivable servicing expenses resulted from the increase in our average outstanding accounts that we serviced during the nine month period ended September 30, 2004 coupled with increased costs associated with court costs, data processing costs, salaries, payroll taxes and benefits, professional fees, telephone charges and rent. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses increased due primarily to an increase in payroll expenses and related fringe benefits based on an increase in payments for our "pay for performance programs" to our employees, which gives the proper incentives for our employees to increase collections, which increased our revenues. Interest Expense increased due primarily to an increase in our notes payable to our Banks. Years Ended December 31, 2004 and 2003

We provided $59,952 in cash from our operating activities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 as compared to $74,718 used in the prior nine month period. The difference of $134,670, or a 180% increase, is attributable primarily to the following factors: o Increased collection of our accounts receivable of $58,572 o Increase in our accounts payable of $60,187 o Increase in our net profit of $202,689 These increases were offset by decreases in: o Accounts payable to credit card companies of $165,715 o Advances from our stockholders of $51,461 We used $27,533 in cash from our investing activities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 as compared to $11,011 used in the prior period. This increase is due primarily to the purchase of property and equipment for our office. We used a net $8,687 from financing activities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 as compared we received a net of $75,954 during the prior period. This decrease is due primarily to the repayment of our bank loan December 31, 2004- ATN Capital & Participacoes Ltda. We used $11,099 in cash from our operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to $54,004 used in the prior year ended December 31, 2003.

This decrease of 71,284 is due primarily to a decrease in the purchase of property and equipment for our office. We provided a net $49,328 from our financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to where we received a net of $152,944 during the prior year. This decrease in 2004 is due primarily to the net repayment of our bank loan 13 December 31, 2004- Lexicon United Incorporated We used $7,446 in cash from our operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to $40,000 provided for in the prior year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease of $47,446, or a 119% decrease in the operating activities funds, is attributable primarily to the decrease in our loans from officers of $100,000. The above decrease was offset by an increase primarily due to the following: o Increase in accounts payable and accrued expense of approximately $48,000 o Decrease in our loss of approximately $5,000 We provided a net $1,012,000 from our financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to where we used a net of $40,000 during the prior year. This increase in 2004 is due primarily to a $1,000,000 loan we received from an officer. Liquidity and Capital Resources Operations to date have been primarily financed by debt and equity transactions. As a result, our future operations will continue to be dependent upon the successful completion of additional equity financing and the timing and terms thereof, as well as support of principal stockholders. Implementation of our business acquisition and growth strategies has increased our need for working capital if we are to be able to seek out and capitalize on available business opportunities and attain our intended growth. Additionally, even if we continue to raise working capital, there can be no assurance that the net proceeds will be sufficient to enable us to develop our business to a level where we will be able to generate profits and positive cash flows. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts nor to amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. We had total current assets of $1,257,723 as of September 30, 2005, of which $1,043,302 was cash. We had total current liabilities of $970,543 as of September 30, 2005. Our total stockholders' equity as of September 30, 2005 was $1,276,916. We believe that our current working capital will be sufficient to sustain our operations at our current levels for the next twelve months. We will require additional working capital to operate beyond such period. Our financial statements have been prepared on the basis that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization and satisfaction of our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Our entire board of directors, which currently consists of Mr. Saltoun and Mr. Nunez, handles the functions that would otherwise be handled by an audit committee. We do not currently have the capital resources to pay director fees to a qualified independent expert who would be willing to serve on our board and who would be willing to act as an audit committee financial expert.

Before retaining any such expert, our board would make a determination as to whether such person is independent. Director Compensation We have no standard arrangements in place to compensate our directors for their service as directors or as members of any committee of directors. In the future, if we retain non-employee directors, we may decide to compensate them for their service to us as directors and members of committees. Family Relationships There are no family relationships among our directors or officers. Code of Ethics Our board of directors has adopted a code of ethics that our principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller and any person who may perform similar functions are subject to. Currently Elie Saltoun, our Chief Executive Officer, President and Treasurer, Jeffrey G. Nunez, our Secretary, Omar Malheiro Silva Araujo, the Chief Executive Officer and President of ATN, and Manuel da Costa Fraguas, the General Manager of ATN, are our and ATN's only officers and directors, therefore, they are the only persons subject to the Code of Ethics. If we retain additional officers in the future to act as our principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller or persons serving similar functions, they would become subject to the Code of Ethics. The Code of Ethics does not indicate the consequences of a breach of the code. If there is a breach, our board of directors would review the facts and circumstances surrounding the breach and take action that it deems appropriate, which action may include dismissal of the employee who breached the code. Currently, since Messrs Saltoun and Nunez serve as directors and are also our officers, they are largely responsible for reviewing their own conduct under the Code of Ethics and determining what action to take in the event of their own breach of the Code of Ethics. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION The following table sets forth information concerning all cash and non-cash compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to our Chief Executive Officer, for services during the last three fiscal years in all capacities to us, our subsidiaries and predecessors.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES The following description of our capital stock is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and bylaws, as amended, all of which have been filed as exhibits to this report. Common Stock We are presently authorized to issue 40,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share. We presently have 8,456,250 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding. The holders of our common stock are entitled to equal dividends and distributions per share with respect to the common stock, when and if declared by our Board of Directors, from funds legally available therefore. No holder of any shares of common stock has a preemptive right to subscribe for any of our securities, nor are any common shares subject to redemption or convertible into other of our securities. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, and after payment to creditors and preferred stockholders, if any, our assets will be divided pro-rata on a share-for-share basis among the holders of the shares of common stock. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote with respect to the election of any director or any other matter upon which stockholders are required or permitted to vote. Holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. The holders of more than 50% of the combined shares voting for the election of directors may elect all of the directors if they choose to do so, and, in that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any members to the Board of Directors. Preferred Stock We are authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value Preferred Stock. Under our Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors has the power, without further action by the holders of the common stock, to designate the relative rights and preferences of the preferred stock, and to issue the preferred stock in one or more series as designated by the Board of Directors. The designation of rights and preferences could include preferences as to liquidation, redemption and conversion rights, voting rights, dividends or other preferences, any of which may be dilutive of the interest of the holders of the common stock or the preferred stock of any other series. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control without further stockholder action and may adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of common stock. In certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could depress the market price of the common stock. The Board of Directors effects a designation of each series of preferred stock by filing with the Delaware Secretary of State a Certificate of Designation defining the rights and preferences of each such series. Documents so filed are matters of public record and may be examined in accordance with procedures of the Delaware Secretary of State, or copies thereof may be obtained from us upon request. Dividend Policy We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business. As a result, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Share Purchase Warrants We have not issued and do not have outstanding any warrants to purchase shares of our common stock. Options We have not issued and do not have outstanding any options to purchase shares of our common stock. 19 Convertible Securities We do not have outstanding any securities that are convertible to our common stock.

This indemnification is not exclusive of any other right to which those indemnified may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in their official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such position with the company. This indemnification is to continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent and will inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of that person. We have not entered into any indemnification agreements with our officers and directors, however, we may enter into an indemnification agreement with them or others who become our officers and/or directors in the future.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND 2003 AND THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 (UNAUDITED) MEYLER & COMPANY, LLC CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS ONE ARIN PARK 1715 HIGHWAY 35 MIDDLETOWN, NJ 07748 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Board of Directors and Stockholders ATN Capital & Participacoes, Ltda. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of ATN Capital & ParticipacoesLtda., a Brazilian company, as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the related statements of operations and stockholder's equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the two years in the period then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ATN Capital & Participacoes Ltda. as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note A to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred cumulative losses of $449,323 since inception, has negative working capital of $546,593, and there are existing uncertain conditions the Company faces relative to its ability to obtain capital and operate successfully. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are also described in Note A. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. /s/ Meyler & Company, LLC Middletown, NJ February 5, 2006 F-1 ATN CAPITAL & PARTICIPACOES LTDA.

See accompanying notes to financial statements. F-5 ATN CAPITAL & PARTICIPACOES LTDA. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2004 (Unaudited September 30, 2005) NOTE A - NATURE OF BUSINESS ATN Capital & Participacoes Ltda. (the "Company"), a Brazilian Company incorporated in April 1997, is in the business of managing and servicing accounts receivable for large financial institutions. The Company's focus is on the recovery of delinquent accounts (generally, accounts that are 60 days or more past due). The Company generates revenues from the recovery of the delinquent accounts receivable on a contingency fee basis. Going Concern As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred cumulative net operating losses of $449,323 since inception and has a negative working capital of $546,593 at December 31, 2004. At September 30, 2005, the cumulative operating loss was $368,382 and the negative working capital was $622,754. Management's plans include merging with a public company in order to raise capital through the equity markets to fund future operations and generating of revenue through its business. Failure to raise adequate capital and generate adequate sales revenues could result in the Company having to curtail or cease operations. Additionally, even if the Company does raise sufficient capital to support its operating expenses and generate adequate revenues, there can be no assurances that the revenue will be sufficient to enable it to develop business to a level where it will generate profits and cash flows from operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less. There are no cash equivalents at September 30, 2005, December 31, 2004, and December 31, 2003. Equipment and Depreciation Equipment is stated at cost and is depreciated using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The estimated useful life of office equipment is five years. Routine maintenance, repairs and replacement costs are expensed as incurred and improvements that extend the useful life of the assets are capitalized. When equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in operations. F-6 ATN CAPITAL & PARTICIPACOES LTDA. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2004 (Unaudited September 30, 2005) NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Revenue Recognition The Company derives its revenue primarily from collection of distressed debt. When satisfactory agreements are reached between the debtor and the credit card company, a commission is earned and recorded. Fair Values of Financial Instruments The Company uses financial instruments in the normal course of business. The carrying values of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, which requires the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are adjusted by a valuation allowance, if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Income tax provisions require the use of management judgments, which are subject to challenge by various taxing authorities. Significant estimates used in accounting for income taxes relate to determination of taxable income and the determination of differences between book and tax bases. Net Loss Per Common Share The Company computes per share amounts in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Consolidated Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Stock-Based Compensation SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based compensation plans, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights. SFAS No. 123 requires employee compensation expense to be recorded using the fair value method. F-7 ATN CAPITAL & PARTICIPACOES LTDA. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2004 (Unaudited September 30, 2005) NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Foreign Currency Translation The Company considers the Brazilian currency (Reais) to be its functional currency. Assets and liabilities were translated into U.S. dollars at the period end exchange rates. The equity accounts were translated at historical rates. Statement of Operations amounts were translated using the average rate during the year. Gains and losses resulting from translating foreign currency financial statements were accumulated in other comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of stockholder's equity (deficit). Business Combinations and Goodwill In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations". SFAS No. 141 requires the purchase method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method. In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", which the Company adopted during 2004. SFAS No. 142 requires, among other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, the standard includes provisions for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the identification of reporting units for purposes of assessing potential future impairment of goodwill. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". SFAS No. 144 changes the accounting for long-lived assets to be held and used by eliminating the requirement to allocate goodwill to long-lived assets to be tested for impairment, by providing a probability weighted cash flow estimation approach to deal with situations in which alternative courses of action to recover the carrying amount of possible future cash flows and by establishing a primary-asset approach to determine the cash flow estimation period for a group of assets and liabilities that represents the unit of accounting for long-lived assets to be held and used. SFAS No. 144 changes the accounting for long-lived assets to be disposed of other than by sale by requiring that the depreciable life of a long-lived asset to be abandoned be revised to reflect a shortened useful life and by requiring the impairment loss to be recognized at the date a long-lived asset is exchanged for a similar productive asset or distributed to owners in a spin-off if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. SFAS No 144 changes the accounting for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale by requiring that discontinued operations no longer be recognized at a net realizable value basis (but at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell), by eliminating the recognition of future operating losses of discontinued components before they occur, and by broadening the presentation of discontinued operations in the income statement to include a component of an entity rather than a segment of a business. A component of an entity comprises operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished operationally, and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the entity.

NOTE D - NOTE PAYABLE TO BANK The Company has several loans with various Brazilian banks and financial institutions. The loans are secured by personal guarantees of the Company's principal shareholders and bear interest at rates ranging from 2.48% to 6%. An analysis of the current and long-term portion is as follows:
September 30, December 31, ------------------------ 2005 2004 2003 ---------- ---------- ---------- Total loans outstanding $ 330,155 $ 285,540 $ 212,379 Less: current portion 330,155 241,252 148,271 ---------- ---------- ---------- Long-term portion $ $ 44,288 $ 65,108 ========== ========== ==========
The majority of the loans expire in November 2005 and have been renewed for one year. NOTE E - ACCRUED CONTINGENT LIABILITIES The Company is responsible to the Brazilian taxing authorities for a municipal service tax at the rate of 5% based upon salaries by location. Since the Company paid taxes at rates lower than the 5%, it is contingently liable for the balance. The Company is in dispute with the taxing authorities relating to this matter. Since it is probable that such amount will be paid, a contingency provision has been recorded in the financial statements. NOTE F - CAPITAL ADVANCES TO BE RETURNED The Company's two major stockholders have taken capital contributions from investors who were to be stockholders. It was subsequently decided to return the capital contributions as cash resources become available. There is currently no demand by these investors to have the funds immediately returned. NOTE G - INCOME TAXES No provision has been made for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 since the Company has a net operating carry forward loss of approximately $368,000 which has an unlimited carry forward period.

See accompanying notes to financial statements. F-14 LEXICON UNITED INCORPORATED (A Development Stage Company) NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. Results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Lexicon United Incorporated annual report on Form 10 KSB for the year ended December 31, 2004. NOTE B - GOING CONCERN As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred cumulative net operating losses of $246,737 since inception and is considered a company in the development stage. Management's plans are to seek a viable merger candidate which is a going concern and reverse merge with it. It also seeks to raise capital for working capital and potential capital projects. However, even if the Company does find a viable merger candidate to reverse merge, and raises capital in the capital markets, there can be no assurances that the revenues and profits will be sufficient to enable it to continue as a going concern. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. NOTE C - STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT On April 29, 2004, the majority stockholders of the Company authorized a 4 for 1 reverse split. Accordingly, all per share figures in the financial statement have been restated. NOTE D - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On November 22, 2005, the Company entered onto a Debt Conversion Agreement with Keyano Interest, Inc. ("Keyano") to convert the convertible promissory note in the amount of $1,000,000 plus accrued interest of $63,750 into common stock of Lexicon United Incorporated. The conversion price was adjusted from $1.00 per share to $0.20 per share as an incentive to convert the loan. As a result of the conversion, Keyano received 5,318,750 shares of restricted common stock and the note was cancelled. On December 12, 2005, (amended January 18, 2006) Lexicon United Incorporated (the "Company") entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement") with ATN Capital & Participacoes Ltda., a Brazilian limited company ("ATN"), Omar Malheiro Silva Araiyo, and Manuel da Costa Froguas, each shareholders of ATN (the "ATN Shareholders") pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire four hundred thousand (400,000) shares of outstanding capital stock of ATN ("ATN Shares") from the ATN shareholders, in exchange for two million (2,000,000) shares of the Company's common stock, in the aggregate. The ATN Shares constitute eighty percent (80%) of ATN's issued and outstanding shares. F-15 LEXICON UNITED INCORPORATED (A Development Stage Company) NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE D - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (CONTINUED) In connection with the share exchange agreement, the Company has valued the 2,000,000 shares issued at $0.25 per share for an aggregate value of $500,000. F-16 LEXICON UNITED INCORPORATED (A Development Stage Company) AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2004 F-17 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Board of Directors Lexicon United Incorporated New York, NY We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Lexicon United Incorporated (a Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of Lexicon United Incorporated's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2004 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note B to the financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $161,585 since inception and there are existing uncertain conditions the Company faces relative to its ability to obtain capital and operate successfully. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters also are described in Note B. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. /s/ Meyler & Company, LLC Middletown, NJ March 29, 2005 F-18 LEXICON UNITED INCORPORATED (A Development Stage Company) BALANCE SHEETS

See accompanying notes to financial statements. F-22 LEXICON UNITED INCORPORATED (A Development Stage Company) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2004 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization Lexicon United Incorporated was incorporated on July 17, 2001 under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. Lexicon has been in the development stage since its inception and has had no operations to date other than issuing of shares of its common stock to Lexicon's three founding stockholders. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Business Combinations and Goodwill In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations". SFAS No. 141 requires the purchase method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method. In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS NO. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", which the Company adopted during 2004. SFAS No. 142 requires, among other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, the standard includes provisions for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the identification of reporting units for purposes of assessing potential future impairment of goodwill. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". SFAS No. 144 changes the accounting for long-lived assets to be held and used by eliminating the requirement to allocate goodwill to long-lived assets to be tested for impairment, by providing a probability weighted cash flow estimation approach to deal with situations in which alternative courses of action to recover the carrying amount of possible future cash flows and by establishing a primary-asset approach to determine the cash flow estimation period for a group of assets and liabilities that represents the unit of accounting for long-lived assets to be held and used. SFAS No. 144 changes the accounting for long-lived assets to be disposed of other than by sale by requiring that the depreciable life of a long-lived asset to be abandoned be revised to reflect a shortened useful life and by requiring the impairment loss to be recognized at the date a long-lived asset is exchanged for a similar productive asset or distributed to owners in a spin-off if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. SFAS No 144 changes the accounting for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale by requiring that discontinued operations no longer be recognized at a net realizable value basis (but at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell), by eliminating the recognition of future operating losses of discontinued components before they occur, and by broadening the presentation of discontinued operations in the income statement to include a component of an entity rather than a segment of a business. A component of an entity comprises operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished operationally, and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the entity. F-23 LEXICON UNITED INCORPORATED (A Development Stage Company) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2004 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Net Loss Per Common Share The Company computes per share amounts in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share." SFAS per share ("EPS") requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the income (loss) available to Common Stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents outstanding during the periods. NOTE B - GOING CONCERN As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred cumulative net operating losses of $161,585 since inception and is considered a company in the development stage. Management's plans are to seek a viable merger candidate which is a going concern and reverse merge with it. It also seeks to raise deficit capital for working capital and potential capital projects. However, even if the Company does find a viable merger candidate to reverse merge, and raises deficit capital in the capital markets, there can be no assurances that the revenues and profits will be sufficient to enable it to continue as a going concern. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. NOTE C - INCOME TAXES The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Statement SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this method, the Company recognizes a deferred tax liability or asset for temporary differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and the related amount reported on the financial statements. The principal types of differences, which are measured at the current tax rates, are net operating loss carry forwards. At December 31, 2004, these differences resulted in a deferred tax asset of approximately $41,000. SFAS No. 109 requires the establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. Since realization is not assured, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the entire deferred tax asset, and the accompanying financial statements do not reflect any net asset for deferred taxes at December 31, 2004. The Company's net operating loss carry forwards amount to $161,585 and expire through 2018. NOTE D - LONG-TERM DEBT - CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE - RELATED PARTY On August 12, 2004, the Company issued a convertible promissory note to Keyano Corporation, a company 50% owned by the President of the Company, in the amount of $1,000,000 with a simple rate of interest of 5% per annum. The principal and related interest is due on August 12, 2007. The principal and all accrued interest is convertible into the Company's common stock based upon a share price of $0.25 per share. The agreement provides for an antidilution provision relating to stock splits and recapitalization. F-24 LEXICON UNITED INCORPORATED (A Development Stage Company) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2004 NOTE E - STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT In July 2001, the Assistant Treasurer who was also a major shareholder of the Company, acquired 4,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $40,000. The Company, in a separate transaction, allowed the Assistant Treasurer to hold $100,000 in custody during his travels to Asia in connection with a proposed business venture. It was subsequently discovered in August 2003, that the funds were not used for the intended purposes and that the Assistant Treasurer absconded with the funds and has left the United States. The Board of Directors, on August 4, 2003, cancelled the shares originally issued to the Assistant Treasurer and wrote off the $100,000 held in custody by the Assistant Treasurer. NOTE F - SUBSEQUENT EVENT On February 28, 2005, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent with ATN Capital & Participacoes Ltda. ("ATN") relating to the acquisition of 80% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ATN. This non-binding letter of intent contemplates that the Company could pay to certain holders of the 80% interest of ATN, in the aggregate, $219,230 in cash and issue to such holders, in the aggregate, such number of shares of the Company's common stock, which would constitute 75% of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock. The letter of intent also contemplates that the Company will have at least $107,692 in cash at the closing which would be available for ATN's working capital needs after the closing. The letter of intent is non-binding and also subject to several conditions, including due diligence by both parties, negotiation and execution of a binding agreement relating to the acquisition, negotiation of employment agreements with management of ATN, approval by the Company's board of directors, negotiation and execution of a shareholder's agreement between the Company and the holders of the remaining 20% shareholders of ATN. ATN is based in Brazil and is engaged in the business of credit collection and credit counseling. F-25 LEXICON UNITED INCORPORATED PRO-FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENT September 30, 2005
