WELUND FUND, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements


(A) Organization, Change in Control, and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization, Nature of Operations and Change in Control — Welund Fund, Inc. ("the Company") was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 16, 2002 to serve as a vehicle to effect a merger, exchange of capital stock, asset acquisition or other business combination with a domestic or foreign private business. Since July 16, 2002, the Company’s activities have primarily related to the Company's formation and the seeking of investment or merger opportunities. On June 9, 2004, an entity acquired 100% of the stock of the Company from the former sole shareholder of the Company for $90,000. At this time, control of the Company was transferred to the new shareholder who appointed a new board of directors. The change of control did not constitute a business combination or reorganization, and consequently, the assets and liabilities of the Company continued to be recorded at historical cost. From July 16, 2002 through March 31, 2005, the Company did not recognize revenue from any of its business activities. Between March and June of 2005, the Company sold 1,000,000 shares of common stock for $250,000, less offering costs. The Company used part of the proceeds from the sale of common stock to purchase a pool of sub-prime auto loans from an affiliate of the Company’s president for $107,357 in March 2005. Although the Company has now recognized revenue from the auto loans, the Company continues to be considered to be in the development stage because revenues recognized have not been significant in relation to the level of planned future operations.

Condensed Interim Financial Statements - The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of Welund Fund, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2006, its results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and its results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and for the period from July 16, 2002 (date of inception), through June 30, 2006. The results of operations for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2006, may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006.

Business Condition - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company’s operating losses and lack of significant operations, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company took the first step toward meeting concerns about its ability to continue as a going concern by selling 1,560,000 shares of restricted common stock in August 2006 for total proceeds of $166,438. Any substantial increase in business may require the Company to raise additional funds. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital, or if successful, on terms favorable to the Company. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Basic Loss Per Share - Loss per share amounts are computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. At June 30, 2006 and 2005, there were no potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding.

(B) Finance Receivables

On March 30, 2005, the Company purchased a pool of sub-prime auto loans with a pay-off balance of $126,302 from an affiliate of the Company’s primary shareholder, officer, and director for $107,357. The purchase price was 85% of the loan pool’s pay-off balance. The discount of $18,945 on the purchase of the loans is being amortized over the term of the loans using a method which approximates the effective yield method. The seller of the pool is required to repurchase loans that become 90 days delinquent. As such, no allowance for uncollectible loans is needed. At the date of purchase, the average loan had a principal balance of approximately $4,708 with an average annual percentage interest rate of approximately 21.54%. The remaining terms of the loans ranged from 6 to 46 months. The Company has contracted with Accredited Adjusters, LLC, a related party, to service and administer the loans for a monthly fee equal to ½% of the outstanding principal balance. Accredited Adjusters is an affiliate of the Company’s primary shareholder, officer, and director.

Summary information regarding finance receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2006 is as follows:

(C) Related Party Transactions

Since the inception of the Company, certain expenses of the Company had been paid by the principal shareholder of the Company. The Company does not own any any real or personal property. The Company currently pays rent in the amount of $2,300 per month to an affiliate of the officer and director for the use of certain office space on a month-to-month basis. Total rental expense for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 was $6,900 and $13,800, respectively. Total rental expense for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 was $5,400 and $7,200, respectively.

In connection with the servicing of the auto loans, the Company pays Accredited Adjusters, LLC, a related party, to service and administer the loans for a monthly fee equal to ½% of the outstanding principal balance. The fee for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 for servicing the loans was $609 and $1,455, respectively. The fee for the period from March 30, 2005 through June 30, 2006 for servicing the loans was $1,764. At June 30, 2006, the Company owes Accredited Adjusters, LLC $365 for services rendered. Additionally, Accredited Adjusters, LLC owes the Company $215 for loan proceeds collected, but not remitted to the Company by June 30, 2006.

During the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Company incurred consulting fees with Village Auto, a related party, in the amount of $3,200, which is included in payables to related parties at June 30, 2006.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION


 
Forward Looking Statements

This discussion and analysis is designed to be read in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis set forth in Welund Fund’s Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. As used herein, “we,” “our,” “us” and the like refer to Welund Fund, Inc.

This report and other information made publicly available from time to time may contain certain forward-looking statements and other information relating to the Company and its business that are based on the beliefs of management and assumptions made concerning information then currently available to management. Such statements reflect the views of management at the time they are made and are not intended to be accurate descriptions of the future. The discussion of future events, including the business prospects of the Company, is subject to the material risks listed below under "Risk Factors" and assumptions made by management.

Recent Events

On August 9, 2006, the Company sold 1,560,000 shares of its restricted common stock for total proceeds of $166,438. The Company also appointed Steven P. Strasser and Terrell W. Smith as two additional members of the Board of Directors. The Company felt that the mediocre results to date of its loan business dictated that the Company raise additional capital and pursue other business prospects to add to its current business of collecting and servicing sub-prime auto loans. If a future transaction is consummated, the transaction may require that the Company sell off existing operations. Both of the new members of the Board of Directors have considerable experience in locating favorable business opportunities with strong earnings potential.

Risk factors

The material risks that we believe are faced by the Company as of the date of this report are set forth below. This discussion of risks is not intended to be exhaustive. The risks set forth below and other risks not currently anticipated or fully appreciated by the management could adversely affect the business and prospects of the Company. These risks include:

Development Stage Company

While the Company has purchased a loan pool and has commenced operations it still must be considered a start up venture and the Company faces all of the risks inherent in the start-up of a new business and does not have a historical basis on which to evaluate whether or not its business can be successful. Furthermore the company will need to expand its operations to produce results which would be meaningful to a public company. There is no assurance that the Company can complete such an expansion.
 

 
8



Dependence on Management

The Company is heavily dependent upon the skill, talents, and abilities of its president, Robert Freiheit. Mr. Freiheit will be primarily responsible for the decisions concerning the implementation of a business model. Mr. Freiheit will not devote his full business time to the Company and will continue to be engaged in outside business activities. The Company will be dependent upon the business acumen and expertise of management and the applicability of their backgrounds to the business decisions required to be made on behalf of the Company.

No Trading Market for the Common Stock 

There is no existing trading market for the Common Stock and it is unlikely that one will develop in the foreseeable future. The shares of Common Stock may be subject to the Penny Market Reform Act of 1990 (the “Reform Act”). In October 1990, Congress enacted the Reform Act to counter fraudulent practices common in penny stock transactions. If the shares are determined to be subject to the Reform Act, this may also adversely affect the ability to sell shares in the future.

Lack of Dividends

It is anticipated that the Company will invest any profits generated from its operations, and therefore, it is unlikely that the Company will pay dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future.

Control of the Company by Management

The directors of the Company currently hold voting and dispositive power over an aggregate of 3,146,100 shares of Common Stock, which represents a majority of the currently issued and outstanding common stock. Since action by the stockholders on most matters, including the election of directors, only requires approval by a vote of the majority of shares voted on the mater, the current directors and executive officers of the company will be able to significantly influence if not control the election of directors of the Company and the outcome of other matters submitted to the stockholders for consideration.

Unforeseen Risks

In addition to the above risks, the future business of the Company will be subject to risks not currently foreseen or fully appreciated by management of the Company.

Should one or more of these or other risks materialize, or if the underlying assumptions of management prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. We do not intend to update these forward-looking statements, except as may occur in the regular course of our periodic reporting obligations.

Historical Operations

We were incorporated on July 16, 2002 and are in the development stage. During the first half of 2005, we sold 1,000,000 shares of restricted common stock for gross proceeds of $250,000. On March 30, 2005, we used a portion of the proceeds from the sale of common stock to purchase a pool of sub-prime auto loans from an affiliate of our primary shareholder, officer, and director. We purchased the auto loans for $107,357, which represented 85% of the pool’s pay-off balance. For the period from July 16, 2002 (date of inception) through June 30, 2006, we have recognized revenues of $31,938, principally from finance income and the amortization of discount related to the purchased auto loans. During the same period from July 16, 2002 (date of inception) through June 30, 2006, we have incurred general and administrative expenses totaling $142,603, principally consisting of stock-based compensation; legal, audit, and consulting fees; servicing fees for the loan pool; and rent expense.
 

9



At June 30, 2006, we had assets totaling $181,747, including $153,004 of cash and $28,528 of finance receivables. At June 30, 2006, we also had total liabilities of $4,688, resulting in shareholders’ equity of $177,059.

Plan of Operations

The Company plans to collect the initial loan pool purchased and rely on its contracted servicers to assist in such collection.  To the extent that principal balances are collected, we plan to purchase new loans.  Because of the Company’s mediocre results of its loan business, it has raised additional funds and is seeking to pursue or acquire other business opportunities while continuing its current operations. The Company continues to rely on Robert Freiheit and his affiliates to seek and obtain such capital. 

If the Company does not expand its activities it has sufficient resources to pay its administrative costs for the next twelve months. 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), which addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a company receives employee services in exchange for either equity instruments of that company or liabilities that are based on the fair value of that company’s equity instruments, or that may be settled by issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS 123R eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair value-based method and recognized as expense in the statement of operations. SFAS 123R was effective beginning January 1, 2006. The adoption of SFAS 123R did have any immediate effect on the Company as the Company does not currently have stock options or any other share-based payment arrangement outstanding. The future impact of adoption will be dependent on several factors, including but not limited to, our future stock-based compensation strategy and our stock price volatility.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, that provides guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in financial statements. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, with earlier adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of FIN 48 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
