This summary does not contain all the information you should consider before investing in the securities. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the "RISK FACTORS" section, the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements. LEVIN TEXTILES INTERNATIONAL INC. We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 7, 2004 to act as a holding company for our wholly-owned subsidiary, Levin Industries Ltd. Levin Industries is a sales and marketing company based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Levin Industries' goal it is to generate manufacturing contracts and place them in manufacturing facilities in North America and Asia. Levin Industries receives a fixed commission for the procurement of these contracts. Levin Industries also intends to acquire minority interests in manufacturing facilities in Asia. We are a development stage business and have had nominal revenues since our formation. There is currently no public market for our common stock. Subsequent to this offering, we hope to have our common stock approved for quotation on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board. We have incurred losses since our inception and we expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future. For the period from February 16, 2004 (date of inception) to November 30, 2004, we incurred a net loss of $24,516. As a result of operating losses from inception and our being a development stage company, these issues raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our principal executive offices are located at 315 E. 2nd Avenue, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V5T 1B9. Our telephone number is (604) 215-3294. Offering Summary Selling stockholders are offering for resale up to 939,500 shares of our common stock which they currently own. We will not be involved in the offer or sale of these shares other than registering such shares for resale pursuant to this prospectus. We are offering up to 2,500,000 shares of its common stock in order to raise up to $250,000 of proceeds to be used in our business operations. 1 RISK FACTORS Our business involves a high degree of risk. Potential investors should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this prospectus before deciding whether to invest in shares of our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, with the loss of part or all of an investment in the common stock. Risks Related to Our Business ----------------------------- Our financial status creates doubt whether we will continue as a going concern for more than 12 months from the date of this prospectus. If we do not continue as a going concern, investors will lose their entire investment. We reported a net loss totaling $24,516 from February 16, 2004, our date of inception, until November 30, 2004. We will require additional working capital to develop business operations. We intend to raise additional working capital either through private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing. There are no assurances that we will be able to achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or obtain additional financing through private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing necessary to support our working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from any private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are insufficient, we will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on acceptable terms. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If adequate working capital is not available we may be forced to discontinue operations, which would cause investors to lose the entire amount of their investment. We are a development stage company and have a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of our prospects can be made. For that reason, it would be difficult for a potential investor to judge our prospects for success. We were organized in July 2004 and our operating subsidiary was organized in February 2004 and have had limited operations since our inception from which to evaluate our business and prospects. There can be no assurance that our future proposed operations will be implemented successfully or that we will ever have profits. If we are unable to sustain our operations, you may lose your entire investment. We face all the risks inherent in a new business, including the expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with conducting operations, including capital requirements and management's potential underestimation of initial and ongoing costs. In evaluating our business and prospects, these difficulties should be considered. We need significant infusions of additional capital, which may result in dilution to your ownership and voting rights in our Company. Based upon our current cash reserves and forecasted operations, we believe that we will need to obtain at least $1 million in outside funding to implement our plan of operation over the next twelve months. Although we are seeking to raise up to $250,000 in this offering, there is no assurance that this amount or any meaningful amount can be raised in this offering. Our need for additional capital to finance our business strategy, operations, and growth will be greater should, among other things, revenue or expense estimates prove to be incorrect. If we fail to arrange for sufficient capital in the future, we may be required to reduce the scope of our business activities until we can obtain adequate financing. We may not be able to obtain additional financing in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms when needed, which could adversely affect our operating results and prospects. Debt financing must be repaid regardless of whether or not we generate profits or cash flows from our business activities. Equity financing may result in dilution to existing stockholders and may involve securities that have rights, preferences, or privileges that are senior to our common stock. 2 If we are not able to manage growth of our business, our financial condition and results of operations will be negatively affected. We anticipate a period of significant growth. This growth could cause significant strain on our managerial, operational, financial and other resources. Success in managing this expansion and growth will depend, in part, upon the ability of our senior management to effectively manage the growth of our business. Any failure to manage the proposed growth and expansion of our business could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. The loss of Simon Levin could have a material adverse effect on our business; if we are not able to retain additional key personnel, our business could suffer. Our success depends to a large degree upon the skills of Mr. Levin, our sole officer and director, and upon our ability to identify, hire, and retain additional senior management, sales, marketing and financial personnel. We may not be able to retain our existing key personnel or to attract and retain additional key personnel. The loss of Mr. Levin or the failure to attract, integrate, motivate, and retain additional key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business. We do not have "key person" insurance on the life of Mr. Levin. We are dependent on certain contractual relationships to generate revenues, the loss of which could significantly reduce revenue. Our revenue is dependent upon the contractual relationships we can establish with companies to place their products in manufacturing facilities. We currently have one contract with ANK Apparel and hope to general additional contracts in the future. Although we believe we will continue to meet all of our material obligations under such contracts, there can be no assurance that such contracts will continue or will be available for renewal on favorable terms. Failure to obtain new contracts or extensions on current contracts for any reason, could have a significant negative impact on our revenue. A manufacturer's inability to produce our clients' goods on time and to our clients' specifications could result in lost revenue and net losses. We do not own or operate any manufacturing facilities and therefore depend upon third parties for the manufacture of all of the products for which we generate contracts for our clients. These products are manufactured to our client specifications. The inability of a manufacturer to process our goods on time, ship orders of the products in a timely manner or to meet the quality standards could cause us to miss the delivery date requirements of our customers for those items, which could result in cancellation of orders, refusal to accept deliveries or a reduction in purchase prices, any of which could have a material adverse effect as our revenues would decrease and we would incur net losses as a result of the manufacture of such products, if any sales could be made. Because of the seasonality the apparel business in particular, the dates on which customers need and require shipments of products are critical, as styles and consumer tastes change so rapidly in the apparel business, particularly from one season to the next. Further, because quality is a leading factor when customers and retailers accept or reject goods, any decline in quality by our third-party manufacturers could be detrimental not only to a particular order, but also to our future relationship with that particular customer. If we need to replace manufacturers, our expenses could increase resulting in smaller profit margins. We compete with other companies for the production capacity of manufacturers and import quota capacities. Many of these competitors have greater financial and other resources than we have, and thus may have an advantage in the competition for production and import quota capacity. If we experience a significant increase in demand, or if an existing manufacturer of ours must be replaced, we may have to expand our third-party manufacturing capacity. We cannot assure you that this additional capacity will be available when required on terms that are acceptable to us or our clients or similar to existing terms which we have had with manufacturers in the past, either from a production standpoint or a financial standpoint. 3 Should we be forced to replace one or more of our manufacturers, particularly a manufacturer that we may rely upon for a substantial portion of its production needs, such as ANK Apparel Source Inc. and their affiliates, then we may experience an adverse financial impact, or an adverse operational impact, such as being forced to pay increased costs for such replacement manufacturing or delays upon distribution and delivery of our clients' products to their customers, which could cause us to lose customers or lose revenues because of late shipments. If a manufacturer fails to use acceptable labor practices, we might have delays in shipments or face joint liability for violations, resulting in decreased revenue and increased expenses. While we require our independent manufacturers to operate in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, we have no control over the ultimate actions of our independent manufacturers. While our internal and vendor operating guidelines promote ethical business practices and our staff periodically visit and monitor the operations of our independent manufacturers, we do not control these manufacturers or their labor practices. The violation of labor or other laws by an independent manufacturer of ours or the divergence of an independent manufacturer's labor practices from those generally accepted as ethical in the United States, could interrupt, or otherwise disrupt the shipment of finished products to our clients or damage our reputation. Any of these, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In particular, the laws governing garment manufacturers in the State of California impose joint liability upon us and our independent manufacturers for the labor practices of those independent manufacturers. As a result, should one of our independent manufacturers be found in violation of state labor laws, we could suffer financial or other unforeseen consequences. We have never used or currently intend to use a manufacturer in the State of California, although we cannot rule out using one in the future. Many of our competitors are larger and have greater financial and other resources than we do and those advantages could make it difficult for us to compete with them. The fashion apparel manufacturing industry is extremely competitive and includes several companies which have achieved substantially greater market shares than we have, and have longer operating histories, have larger customer bases, have substantially greater financial, development and marketing resources than we do. If overall demand for our services should decrease it could have a materially adverse affect on our operating results. We face intense competition in the manufacturing contract procurement industry. We face a variety of competitive challenges from other domestic and foreign fashion-oriented apparel producers, many of which may be significantly larger and more diversified and have greater financial and marketing resources than we have. We do not currently hold a dominant competitive position in any market. We compete with fashion apparel producers and manufacturers for the placement of the manufacturing business. The elimination of quotas may lead to increased competition. In 1995, the Agreement on Textiles and Clothing came into effect, requiring importing countries, including Canada, the United States and countries in Western Europe, to eliminate quotas on imports of textiles and apparel from WTO member exporting countries by 2005. This could result in increased competition from developing countries which have lower labor costs and reliable infrastructures, such as China, India and Pakistan. Increased competition from such countries could adversely affect our business. Moreover, since January 2003, Canada has granted duty and quota free access to approximately 48 least developed countries, which may result in increased competition from these least developed countries in the Canadian textile and apparel markets. To obtain new customers, we must overcome long-standing customer relationships and long sales cycles; failure to obtain new customers could result in increased expenses and operating losses. Many of the potential customers that we pursue have long-standing business relationships and personal ties with their existing manufacturers, which they are reluctant to disrupt. To successfully sell our services, we generally must educate potential customers on the use and benefits of our services, which can require significant time and resources. Consequently, we must incur substantial expenses in acquiring new customers. The period between initial contact and the retention of our services is often long and subject to delays associated with the lengthy approval and competitive evaluation processes that typically accompany a customer's decision to change its outsourcing relationships. For many customers, the cycle could takes several months, and for large customers, the cycle may require more than one year. If we are unable to obtain new customers, it could result in increased operating and marketing expenses and operating losses. 4 The offering price of $0.10 per share was arbitrarily determined by us and is not based on any trading market value which makes the offering price speculative and subject to significant change after purchase. The price of our common stock offered hereby has been arbitrarily determined by us and bears no relationship to our earnings, book value or any other recognized criteria of value. Our shares are not currently traded on any stock market. Consequently, no established market value for our shares exists. As a result, there is no assurance that shares purchased pursuant to this prospectus can be resold at or above the offering price. Our sole officer and director, Mr. Levin, will own a controlling interest in our voting stock and investors will not have any voice in our management. Upon completion of this offering, our sole officer and director, Mr. Levin will, in the aggregate, beneficially own approximately 50.51% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, Mr. Levin will have the ability to control substantially all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including: o election of our board of directors; o removal of any of our directors; o amendment of our certificate of incorporation or bylaws; and o adoption of measures that could delay or prevent a change in control or impede a merger, takeover or other business combination involving us. As a result of his ownership and position, Mr. Levin is able to influence all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. In addition, sales of significant amounts of shares held by Mr. Levin, or the prospect of these sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Mr. Levin's stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price. Risks Related to Our Common Stock --------------------------------- There is currently no public market for our common stock. Failure to develop or maintain a trading market could negatively affect the value of our shares and make it difficult or impossible for you to sell your shares. Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock and a public market for our common stock may not develop upon completion of this offering. Failure to develop or maintain an active trading market could negatively affect the value of our shares and make it difficult for you to sell your shares or recover any part of your investment in us. Even if a market for our common stock does develop, the market price of our common stock may be highly volatile. In addition to the uncertainties relating to our future operating performance and the profitability of our operations, factors such as variations in our interim financial results, or various, as yet unpredictable factors, many of which are beyond our control, may have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. 5 THE OFFERING We are registering up to 2,500,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public. The common stock will be sold by our sole officer and director Simon Levin, to investors inside and outside the United States. Other than possible reimbursement for out-of-pocket selling costs incurred by the officers and directors in their selling efforts and costs of preparing this prospectus, no commissions or other deductions will be paid from the proceeds raised. There is no minimum number of shares that must be sold in order for us to accept funds and consummate investor purchases. Determination of offering price We have arbitrarily determined the initial public offering price of the shares at $0.10 per share which price does not necessarily bear any relationship to established valuation criteria such as earnings, book value or assets. Rather, the offering price per share was derived from a subjective consideration by management of various factors including: o prevailing market conditions, including the history and prospects for the industry in which we compete; o our future prospects; and o our capital structure. Due to the arbitrary nature of the $0.10 offering price of the shares, such valuation may not be indicative of prices that may prevail at any time or from time to time in the future. You cannot be sure that a public market for any of our securities will develop and continue or that the shares will ever trade at a price higher than the offering price in this offering. We are also registering on behalf of selling stockholders, for resale up to 939,500 shares of common stock. The shares of common stock offered for resale may be sold in a secondary offering by the selling stockholders by means of this prospectus. The shares will be sold at a price of $0.10 per share. We will not participate in the resale of shares by selling stockholders. USE OF PROCEEDS The proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock offered by us are estimated to be up to $250,000 based on a public offering price of $0.10 per share. We intend to utilize the estimated proceeds during the twenty-four month period following this offering for the following purposes:
------------------------------- ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- 25% of Maximum 50% of Maximum 75% of Maximum Maximum Offering Offering Amount Offering Amount Offering Amount Amount ------------------------------- ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- Total Proceeds $ 62,500 $ 125,000 $ 187,500 $ 250,000 Legal and Accounting Costs of Offering $ 15,000 $ 15,000 $ 15,000 $ 15,000 Net Proceeds from Offering $ 47,500 $ 110,000 $ 172,500 $ 235,000 Use of Net Proceeds Joint Ventures $ 21,000 $ 42,000 $ 63,000 $ 84,000 Research and Travel $ 6,000 $ 12,000 $ 18,000 $ 24,000 Marketing and Advertising $ 9,500 $ 46,000 $ 80,500 $ 117,000 Working Capital $ 11,000 $ 10,000 $ 11,000 $ 10,000 ------------------------------- ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- -----------------
6 DILUTION Our book value per share, as of November 30, 2004 was $0.00 per share. Without taking into account any changes in our book value after November 30, 2004 and giving effect to the sale by us of 1,250,000 or 2,500,000 shares of common stock offered hereby (after deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us) the pro forma book value at November 30, 2004, would have been approximately $112,820 or $0.03 per share if 1,250,000 shares are sold and $237,820 or $0.04 per share if 2,500,000 shares are sold. This amount represents an immediate and significant dilution to new investors. The following table illustrates this dilution per share:
1,250,000 2,500,000 Shares Sold Shares Sold ----------- ----------- Public offering price per share $ 0.10 $ 0.10 Weighted average price per share paid by existing stockholders $ 0.10 $ 0.10 Book Value per share at November 30, 2004 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 Book value per share after offering $ 0.03 $ 0.04 Increase per share attributable to existing stockholders $ 0.03 $ 0.04 Dilution per share to new investors $ 0.07 $ 0.06

MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK Our common stock is not quoted on any exchange and there is no public trading market. As of March 11, 2005, we had 3,439,500 issued and outstanding shares of common stock and 13 stockholders of record. We do not have any outstanding options, warrants or other arrangements providing for the issuance of additional shares of our capital stock. Of the 3,439,500 shares of common stock outstanding, none of these shares are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Act as they have been held for less than one year. Except for the shares being registered in this prospectus, we do not have any current intention or obligation to register any additional shares of common stock for sale. 7 There is no public market for our common stock. Trades of our common stock, should a market ever develop, will be subject to Rule 15g-9 of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which rule imposes certain requirements on broker/dealers who sell securities subject to the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For transactions covered by the rule, brokers/dealers must make a special suitability determination for purchasers of the securities and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction prior to sale. The SEC also has rules that regulate broker/dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks". Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in that security is provided by the exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker/ dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker/dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker/dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker/dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock. As a result of these rules, investors in this offering, even if a market for our shares ever develops, may find it difficult to sell their shares. The provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation allow our board of directors to issue preferred stock with rights, preferences and privileges superior to our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock with such rights may make the removal of management difficult even if such removal would be considered beneficial to stockholders generally. It would have the effect of limiting stockholder participation in certain transactions such as mergers or tender offers if such transactions are not favored by our management. There are no shares of preferred stock outstanding, and there are no current plans, arrangements, commitments or undertakings to issue any preferred stock. However, the board of directors has the authority to issue shares of preferred stock at any time up to the amount authorized in our Certificate of Incorporation. DIVIDEND POLICY Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by our board of directors and, in the event of liquidation, to share pro rata in any distribution of our assets after payment of liabilities. We have not paid any dividends on our common stock and we do not have any current plans to pay any common stock dividends.

The forward-looking statements contained herein are also subject generally to other risks and uncertainties that are described from time to time in our reports and registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, prior financial performance and customer orders are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected in the future and we believe that such comparisons cannot be relied upon as indicators of future performance. Additionally, we undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements, which may be made to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Introduction and Background We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 7, 2004 to act as a holding company for our wholly-owned subsidiary, Levin Industries Ltd. Levin Industries is a sales and marketing company based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Levin Industries' goal it is to generate manufacturing contracts and place them in manufacturing facilities in North America and Asia. Levin Industries receives a fixed commission for the procurement of these contracts. Levin Industries also intends to acquire minority interests in manufacturing facilities in Asia. We are a development stage business and have had nominal revenues since our formation. Contract Procurement Our primary focus is to generate contracts with companies that create technical outerwear clothing to place their manufacturing orders with manufacturing facilities and oversee the process from design to finished product. Many large fashion and apparel companies do not own their own manufacturing facilities; instead, they have internal departments that are responsible for finding manufacturing facilities, negotiating contracts and overseeing the process at such facilities until the products are produced and shipped. We believe there is a growing market for the outsourcing of this services from in-house to companies like ours. We offer the following services to clients to be outsourced: o Design and development; o Pattern making and grading; o Fabric sourcing; o Sample sewing; o Production; o Quality control; o Private label development; and o Duty, quota, brokerage and TPL services. Design and development ---------------------- This involves the creation of actual designs, including styles, colors, stitching and fabric selection through the process of having such designs make into patterns, samples created and arranging for manufacturing of the products. 9 Pattern making and grading -------------------------- Creates first pattern or make alterations to existing hard paper patterns or digitized data. All patterns are computerized using a Gerber pattern making system. Patterns made from sample or specification. Grading involves making grade rules for the market that product is intended, such as men, women, youth, child, toddler, etc. Fabric sourcing --------------- This service involves searching for the type, quality, fiber and amount of fabric needed for the customers' needs. Sample sewing ------------- This service involves finding companies to provide the sewing of samples of the garments to be manufactured to ensure stitching, quality and proper pattern design. The samples are provided to clients for proofing prior to full manufacture of the garments. Samples can be sewn using various methods. Production ---------- This involves placing orders with manufacturers to mass-produce a customer's clothing line based upon developed patterns. Quality control --------------- This involves the assessment of product compliance with stated patterns, including reviewing for proper material, color, stitching and gluing. Private label development ------------------------- Involves the creation of a new, independent line of clothing. Private labels are clothing lines for companies to sell in addition to, or instead of nationally known brands. For example, a retail store may carry jeans from nationally recognized brands such as Levi's, Polo, and Calvin Klein, but also carry a brand of jeans made for that retain store and only sold in that retail store. This typically involves the process from design to development. Duty, quota, brokerage and TPL services. ---------------------------------------- This involves the many laws and regulations relating to the amount of certain products that can be imported into a country at a particular time or over a period of time. This also involves payment of various taxes, depending on what type of goods are being shipped, where they are shipped from, where they are shipped to and how much of the product is being shipped. Failure to comply with these regulations could result in shipments being held up in transit or large financial penalties, among other repercussions. Manufacturing Facility Ownership Our second business objective is to acquire interests in manufacturing facilities in Asia. In connection with any contracts we would enter into with manufacturing facilities in Asia, it is our intention to negotiate to receive an ownership interest at a discount to the market price. Through securing ownership interests in these facilities, we will have added incentive to place future manufacturing contracts with such facilities and will help ensure that our clients have access to manufacturing facilities at the best rate possible. This in turn will hopefully lead to additional business for us. Contract with and Ownership in ANK Apparel Source Inc. We entered into an agreement with ANK Apparel Source Inc. to procure contracts on their behalf for the manufacture of clothing in ANK's manufacturing facilities. Pursuant to our agreement with ANK, we receive a commission based upon the total value of the contract we secure on their behalf. In addition, we own approximately 16% of the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock of ANK. It is our intention for the immediate future to place all manufacturing contracts we secure at ANK's Canadian manufacturing facility. 10 ANK Apparel Source Inc. ANK Apparel Source Inc. was incorporated on November 7, 2001. It is in its fourth year of business in the technical outerwear industry. Its primary source of business is the manufacture of Technical Sports Outerwear Apparel for North American and European markets. ANK does not have a brand or its own line of clothing. ANK is a contract manufacturer. ANK has a manufacturing facility in Canada, owns a 35% interest in another facility in Hang Zhou, China and is negotiating to acquire an interest in another facility in China. The Canadian facility has 120 operators, a gluing facility for technical welding of pockets and seams and a quality control and trimming section. There is also a cutting department on premise that consists of the latest Gerber computerized pattern making, product grading and marker producing technology. The cutting equipment is all computerized and fully automated for consistency and accuracy. In addition, there is also an Embroidery department consisting of 24 heads for bulk production and four head machines for sampling. Within the facility, there is a small sewer-sewing floor, bulk fabric storage, packaging and shipping departments for finished products. The facility in Hang Zhou holds 100 operators with existing space to increase capacity to 200 sewers. ANK Canadian facilities are slowly decreasing the manufacturing capacity in Canada and increasing the capacity in Asia. This is due solely to the change in the quota and duties being abolished or decreased. As a result, China without quotas now makes it a prime location for manufacturing. ANK Apparel offers full package programs consisting of patternmaking, pattern size grading, fabric sourcing, sampling, fabric purchases for bulk production, packaging development, labeling, UPC coding, and EDI capabilities. ANK offers a second option of cut, make and trim only. This gives a customer an option to bring an already developed style and in stock fabric to the facility and have the production floor cut, sew and package the product. Following is a list of some of ANK's current and recent customers: o Polo RLX Sport Line; o Moonstone; o Marmot; o Patagonia; o Cloudvail; o Cabela's; o Gander Mountain; o Bass Pro; o Arcteryx; o Alpha Broder; o Costco; o Running Room; o Forzani Group; and o Eddie Bauer. ANK's strength is in the ability to develop and source technical fabric or develop fabrics with foreign mills and service the customer in North America rather than companies having to go offshore themselves. As a result of the pattern making and production expertise of ANK, it has developed a solid reputation for technical, well designed, sound fitting garments with a high level of quality and on time delivery. All development and sampling is done in Canada and finished approved garments are then sent to the Asian facility for production. 11 ANK's produces the following types of fabrics and designs: o Base layer and next to skin underwear - moisture transfer; o Fleece Outerwear - Jackets, bottoms, vests - hoodies, men's, woman's and kids; o Soft shell technology for windproof and waterproof outerwear; o Woven shells for wind resistance; o Military ECWACS (Extended Cold Weather Clothing Systems) for Navy Seals and Military Personnel; and o Gloves, hates scarves and other accessory items. Customers and Marketing Strategy We currently have one customer, ANK Apparel. We are seeking contracts with additional customers. We intend to focus our marketing strategy on the attending of trade shows and the networking of our President, Simon Levin, who has been involved in this industry for over 15 years. Competition The market for clothing manufacturing contracts is very competitive. Many companies own their own manufacturing facilities or have long-standing business relationships and personal ties with their existing manufacturers, which they are reluctant to disrupt. Additionally, we do not own our own manufacturing facility, so we are reliant upon other manufacturers whom we shall solicit to fulfill manufacturing orders. We must educate potential customers on the use and benefits of our services, which can require significant time and resources. The period between initial contact and the retention of our services is often long and subject to delays associated with the lengthy approval and competitive evaluation processes that typically accompany a customer's decision to change its outsourcing relationships. For many customers, the cycle could take several months, and for large customers, the cycle may require more than one year. If we are unable to obtain new customers, it could result in increased operating and marketing expenses and operating losses. We also face direct competition from other manufacturing service brokers who might also have contracts or relationships with existing manufacturing facilities. Employees We currently have one full time employee. We consider our relations with our employee to be good. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY We maintain our principal office at 315 E. 2nd Avenue, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V5T 1B9. Our telephone number at that office is (604) 215-3294 and our facsimile number is (604) 255-3290. We lease 300 square feet of office space. Our monthly rent for this location is $250 per month. The lease expires on September 30, 2005 and we have an option to renew the lease. We believe that our current office space and facilities are sufficient to meet our present needs and do not anticipate any difficulty securing alternative or additional space, as needed, on terms acceptable to us. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other 12 matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS The information in this registration statement contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This Act provides a "safe harbor" for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information about themselves so long as they identify these statements as forward looking and provide meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ from the projected results. All statements other than statements of historical fact made in this registration statement are forward looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect management's current expectations and are inherently uncertain. The Company's actual results may differ significantly from management's expectations. Plan of Operations Our first objective is to increase the annual sales for ANK Apparel. To achieve this goal, we will attend four major trades shows for the technical and ski wear industries at which we will have a booth soliciting customers and placing contracts in the ANK's facility. These four shows are the Magic Show, Outdoor Retailer show, SIA Show and the Shot Show. Our second objective will be to travel to Asia to achieve the following two initiatives: o Inspecting the manufacturing facility in Hang Zhou, China to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations and to ensure that is has the ability and capacity to handle the production capacity that Levin Industries hopes to deliver. o Investigating other manufacturing facilities in Asia and looking to purchase our own equity stake in one or two facilities so as to have direct interest in the manufacturing process to ensure customer service and deliverability. To that end, Levin will travel to Da Lian, China, where the town council has expressed an interest in renovating an existing manufacturing facility and assisting us in purchasing an interest in that company. The town council is interested in growing the manufacturing base/employment opportunities in this particular region. They see a North American equity owner as a way to drive North American business to the region, which would increase employment. It is expected that we will be offered an equity ownership at a discounted price pursuant to the profitability of specific contracts consuming the factories' production capacity. This purchase can be either paid out of the proceeds raised or by the profits generated by significant contracts. Our third objective is to raise $250,000 via a public offering to expedite our growth. Results of Operation Period from inception (February 16, 2004) to fiscal year end November 30, 2004 We have commenced operations and have received $70,961 of revenues through November 30, 2004. Start-up expenses of $85,488 were incurred in the period from inception through November 30, 2004. Professional and consulting fees represented $71,685 of these start-up expenses as we are using outside consultants in such areas as legal, accounting, web design and marketing in developing our business. Consulting fees include $34,975 paid to Mr. Levin. Included in operating expenses in the period is $2,367 of rent donated by the Company's President. We incurred a net loss of $24,516 during the period from inception through November 30, 2004. Prior to our acquisition of assets from Levin Industries on July 7, 2004, our business had not yet commenced and no revenues had been generated. 14 Liquidity and Capital Resources We have incurred operating losses since the inception of our business (February 16, 2004), and, as of November 30, 2004, we have an accumulated deficit of $24,516. At November 30, 2004, we had cash and cash equivalents of $7,430 and a net working capital deficiency of $40,478. To date, we have funded our operations through the issuance of common stock. During the period from inception to March 1, 2005, we raised $25,000 from the sale of 3,000,000 shares of common stock to our President, Simon Levin and $43,950 from the sale of 439,500 shares of common stock to 12 unrelated persons. We also received the benefit of having the costs of our premises donated by a related party having a total value of $2,367. We have used the $68,950 cash raised to date from the sale of stock for legal and accounting services and general working capital purposes. We expect our expenses will continue to increase during the foreseeable future as a result of increased marketing expenses and the enhancement of our website. We are dependent on the proceeds from future debt or equity investments to sustain our operations and implement our business plan. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital, we will be required to delay or forego some portion of our business plan, which may have a material adverse effect on our anticipated results from operations and financial condition. Alternatively, we may seek interim financing in the form of bank loans, private placement of debt or equity securities, or some combination of these. Such interim financing may not be available in the amounts or at the times when we require, and will likely not be on terms favorable to us. 15 MANAGEMENT Executive Officers, Directors, Director Nominees and Key Employees The following is the name and certain information regarding our current Director and Executive Officer: Name Age Position ---- --- -------- Simon Levin 40 President, Principal Financial Officer, Principal Accounting Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and Director Pursuant to our bylaws, our directors are elected at our annual meeting of stockholders and each director holds office until his successor is elected and qualified.

The shares of common stock may be sold by the selling stockholders by one or more of the following methods, without limitation: (a) block trades in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares of common stock as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; (b) ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers; (c) privately negotiated transactions; and (d) a combination of any aforementioned methods of sale.

The offering of shares by the selling stockholders will run concurrently with the offering of shares on our behalf. In this regard, the selling stockholders, will be competing with us for the sale of shares. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders or, if any of the broker-dealers act as an agent for the purchaser of said shares, from the purchaser in amounts to be negotiated which are not expected to exceed those customary in the types of transactions involved. In connection with such resales, the broker-dealer may pay to or receive from the purchasers of the shares, commissions as described above. The selling stockholders may also sell the shares of common stock in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, rather than pursuant to this prospectus. 20 The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the selling stockholders in the sale of the shares of common stock may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with these sales. In that event, any commissions received by the broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Furthermore, selling stockholders are subject to Regulation M of the Exchange Act. Regulation M prohibits any activities that could artificially influence the market for our common stock during the period when shares are being sold pursuant to this prospectus. Consequently, selling stockholders must refrain from directly or indirectly attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase the common stock being offered with any information not contained in this prospectus. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the price of our common stock in connection with the stock offered pursuant to this prospectus. A selling stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers and the broker-dealers may engage in short sales of our common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume with such selling stockholder, including, without limitation, in connection with the distribution of our common stock by such broker-dealers, or pursuant to exemption from such registration. A selling stockholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers that involve the delivery of the common stock to the broker-dealers, who may then resell or otherwise transfer such common stock. A selling stockholder may also loan or pledge the common stock to a broker-dealer and the broker-dealer may sell the common stock so loaned or upon default may sell or otherwise transfer the pledged common stock. Under the securities laws of certain states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers or persons exempt from such registration. The selling stockholders are advised to ensure that any brokers, dealers or agents affecting transactions on behalf of the stockholders are registered to sell securities in such states. In addition, in certain states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless the shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with. All expenses of the registration statement estimated to be $20,000-$25,000 including but not limited to, legal, accounting, printing and mailing fees have or will be paid by us. We have agreed to pay the incremental costs of including the selling stockholders' shares in this prospectus.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of March 11, 2005 are deemed to be beneficially owned by the person holding such securities for the purpose of computing the percentage of ownership of such person, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. 22 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, with amendments, all of which have been filed as exhibits to our registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. Dividend Policy We have not had any earnings or profits and have not paid any dividends. Our proposed operations are capital intensive and we need working capital. Therefore, we will be required to reinvest any future earnings in our operations. Our Board of Directors has no present intention of declaring any cash dividends, as we expect to re-invest all profits in the business for additional working capital for continuity and growth. The future declaration and payment of dividends will be determined by our Board of Directors after considering the conditions then existing, including our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, and other factors. There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that restrict us from declaring dividends. Capital Structure Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,005,000 shares of capital stock, par value $.001 per share, of which 100,000,000 shares are common stock and 5,000 shares are preferred stock that may be issued in one or more series at the discretion of the Board of Directors. As of March 11, 2005, 3,439,500 shares of common stock and 0 shares of Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding. Common Stock The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders. The holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends ratably, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available therefor. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Levin Textiles International Inc., the holders of common stock are entitled to share equally and ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. The holders of shares of common stock, as such, have no conversion, preemptive, or other subscription rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to the common stock. All of the outstanding shares of common stock are, and the shares of common stock offered by us hereby, when issued against the consideration set forth in this prospectus, will be, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Preferred Stock Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as may from time to time be determined by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has authority, without action by the stockholders, to determine the voting rights, preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion rights and any other rights of such series. Any preferred shares, if and when issued in the discretion of the Board of Directors, may carry voting, conversion or other rights superior to those of the shares of common stock and may adversely affect the voting power and rights of the common stockholders. Our Board of Directors has not designated any series or class of preferred stock and, as such, there are no shares of preferred stock currently outstanding. Options and Warrants We have not yet issued any options, warrants or other rights to acquire our securities. Transfer Agent and Registrar The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Colonial Stock Transfer, Salt Lake City, Utah. 23 INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES Our Articles of Incorporation provide to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, that our directors or officers shall not be personally liable to us or our shareholders for damages for breach of such director's or officer's fiduciary duty. The effect of this provision of our Articles of Incorporation, as amended and restated, is to eliminate our rights and our shareholders (through shareholders' derivative suits on behalf of our company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations defined by statute. We believe that the indemnification provisions in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. Our By Laws also provide that the Board of Directors may also authorize our company to indemnify our employees or agents, and to advance the reasonable expenses of such persons, to the same extent, following the same determinations and upon the same conditions as are required for the indemnification of and advancement of expenses to our directors and officers. As of the date of this Registration Statement, the Board of Directors has not extended indemnification rights to persons other than directors and officers. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the common stock offered hereby will be passed upon for Levin Textiles International Inc. by Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP, New York, New York.

INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Page ---- Independent Auditor's Report F-1 Consolidated Balance Sheet F-2 Consolidated Statement of Operations F-3 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows F-4 Consolidated Statement of Stockholders' Deficit F-5 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements F-6 25 [MANNING ELLIOTT LETTERHEAD] Independent Auditors' Report To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Levin Textiles International, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Levin Textiles International, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of November 30, 2004 and August 31, 2004 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the three month period ended November 30, 2005 and the period from February 16, 2004 (Date of Inception) to August 31, 2004 and accumulated for the period from February 16, 2004 (Date of Inception) to November 30, 2004. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the aforementioned consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Levin Textiles International, Inc. (A Development Stage Company), as of November 30, 2004 and August 31, 2004, and the results of its operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity for the three month period ended November 30, 2004 and the period from February 16, 2004 (Date of Inception) to August 31, 2004 and accumulated for the period from February 16, 2004 (Date of Inception) to November 30, 2004, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company is in the development stage and has incurred losses from operations since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ "Manning Elliott" CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS Vancouver, Canada March 1, 2005 F-1

F-5 (The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements) Levin Textiles International, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements November 30, 2004 1. Development Stage Company The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware, USA on July 7, 2004. Effective July 16, 2004, the Company acquired all the outstanding common stock of Levin Industries Ltd. ("Industries"), a company under common control. Prior to the acquisition, the Company was a non-operating shell corporation with net assets consisting solely of cash of $25,000. The acquisition is a capital transaction in substance and therefore has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition. See Note 6. The Company's principal business is in the garment manufacturing industry (technical outerwear), specializing in sales, product development, initial sample approval, fabric sourcing, and product placement in Asian Pacific Rim and North American facilities. The Company is in the development stage and planned principal activities have commenced, but there has been no significant revenue therefrom. In a development stage company, management devotes most of its activities to developing a market for its products and services. The Company's primary source of revenue is currently commission income from product sales to third parties. These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has generated minimal revenues since inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern and the ability of the Company to emerge from the development stage is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, to generate significant revenues and the attainment of profitable operations. As at November 30, 2004, the Company has accumulated losses of $24,516 since inception. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In December 2004, the Company issued 439,500 common shares at a price of $0.10 per share for total proceeds of $43,950 pursuant to a private placement. The Company is planning to file a Form SB-2 Registration Statement ("SB-2") with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission to register up to 939,500 shares of common stock held by existing shareholders for resale at a price of $0.10 per share. Also pursuant to the SB-2, the Company plans to offer up to 2,500,000 common shares at a price of $0.10 per share for maximum proceeds of $250,000 to the Company. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies a) Basis of Presentation and Fiscal Year These financials statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars. The Company has not produced significant revenue from its principal business and is a development stage company as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 7 "Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises". These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Levin Industries Ltd. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company's fiscal year-end is August 31, 2004. b) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. F-6 Levin Textiles International, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements November 30, 2004 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) c) Other Comprehensive Income SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in the financial statements. As at November 30, 2004, the Company's only component of comprehensive income (loss) was foreign currency translation adjustments. d) Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. e) Concentrations The fair value of financial instruments, which include accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, income taxes payable, and due from a related party were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company's operations are in Canada resulting in exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. The financial risk is the risk to the Company's operations that arise from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. As at November 30, 2004, accounts receivable from a single, related party customer represented 100% of total accounts receivables, and this customer represented 99% of total revenues. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash. Cash was deposited with a high quality institution. f) Foreign Currency Transactions/Balances During the three-month period ended November 30, 2004, the functional currency of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary changed to the Canadian dollar. The financial statements of this subsidiary are translated to United States dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52 "Foreign Currency Translation" using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues and expenses. Translation gains (losses) are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of stockholders' equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in current operations. g) Revenue Recognition The Company earns commission income from product sales made by an affiliated company, ANK Apparel Source Inc. ("ANK"). Commission income is recognized at the time products are shipped to customers by ANK. The Company records commission income on a net basis in accordance with EITF 99-19, "Reporting revenue gross as a principal vs. net as an agent". The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 ("SAB 104"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements". Revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product is shipped by ANK, and collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company's accounts receivable are due entirely from ANK, an affiliated company. The Company has not encountered any collectibility issues relating to amounts owed from ANK and therefore has not established allowance for doubtful accounts. h) Property and Equipment Property and equipment consists of computer hardware and is recorded at cost. Computer hardware is being amortized on the straight line basis over the estimated life of four years. F-7 Levin Textiles International, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements November 30, 2004 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) i) Long-Lived Assets In accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. The Company recognizes impairment when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value. j) Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS 128"). SFAS 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. k) Investment Investment consists of a 16% interest in the common shares of ANK Apparel Source Inc., a private company incorporated in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. These securities are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at cost of $42,150, which approximates fair value at November 30, 2004. Any unrealized gains and losses in the valuation of the investment will be included in stockholders' equity. l) Income Taxes Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" as of its inception. Pursuant to SFAS No. 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. F-8 Levin Textiles International, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements November 30, 2004 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) m) Recent Accounting Pronouncement In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123R, "Share Based Payment". SFAS 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and its related implementation guidance. SFAS 123R establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. SFAS 123R focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R does not change the accounting guidance for share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees provided in SFAS 123 as originally issued and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services". SFAS 123R does not address the accounting for employee share ownership plans, which are subject to AICPA Statement of Position 93-6, "Employers' Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans". SFAS 123R requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award - the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). SFAS 123R requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The scope of SFAS 123R includes a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. Public entities (other than those filing as small business issuers) will be required to apply SFAS 123R as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. Public entities that file as small business issuers will be required to apply SFAS 123R in the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. For nonpublic entities, SFAS 123R must be applied as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29". The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, "Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions", is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS No. 153 amends Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Early application is permitted and companies must apply the standard prospectively. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. F-9 Levin Textiles International, Inc.

The donated office premises are valued at $250 per month.

("ANK"). The Company generated commission income from ANK of $45,462 during the three month period ended November 30, 2004, representing 97% of total revenues. At November 30, 2004, ANK owes $10,599 to the Company. f) All Company commission sales are from shipments made by a related company, of which the Company has a 16% ownership interest. g) The total balance of accounts receivable is due from ANR. 5.

Recapitalization - Reverse Acquisition By a Share Purchase Agreement dated July 22, 2004, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Levin Industries Ltd. ("Industries") in consideration for the issue of 2,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company. Industries was incorporated on February 16, 2004 under the Company Act of British Columbia and was owned by the President of the Company. The principal business of Industries is in the garment manufacturing industry specializing in sales, product development, initial sample approval, fabric sourcing, and product placement. F-10 Levin Textiles International, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements November 30, 2004 6. Recapitalization - Reverse Acquisition (continued) Prior to the reverse acquisition, the Company was a non-operating shell company with net assets consisting solely of cash of $25,000. Therefore, this acquisition is a recapitalization, rather than a business combination, and has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Because Industries is deemed to be the acquirer for accounting purposes, the financial statements are presented as a continuation of Industries and include the results of operations of Industries since incorporation on February 16, 2004, and the results of operations of the Company since the date of acquisition on July 22, 2004. As at July 16, 2004 the Company had $25,000 of net assets which has been allocated to additional paid in capital. 7. Accrued Liabilities As at November 30, 2004 and August 31, 2004, accrued liabilities consist of accrued professional fees. 8. Income Tax The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Pursuant to SFAS 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefit of net U.S. operating losses has not been recognized in the financial statements because the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that it will utilize the net U.S. operating losses carried forward in future years. The Company has a U.S. tax loss of $33,957 to offset future years taxable income expiring commencing in fiscal 2024. Income tax expense was as follows: Three Month From Period Ended February 16, 2004 November 30, 2004 (Date of Inception) $ to August 31, 2004 $ Current Canadian 9,989 -- United States -- -- Deferred: Canadian -- -- United States -- -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total income tax expense 9,989 -- ========================================================================== A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate to the Company's effective tax rate follows: Canada United States Statutory federal income tax rate 37.6% 34.0% Change in valuation allowance -- (34.0%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total income tax expense 37.6% -- ========================================================================== F-11 Levin Textiles International, Inc.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers Our Articles of Incorporation provide to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, that our directors or officers shall not be personally liable to us or our shareholders for damages for breach of such director's or officer's fiduciary duty. The effect of this provision of our Articles of Incorporation, as amended and restated, is to eliminate our rights and our shareholders (through shareholders' derivative suits on behalf of our company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations defined by statute. We believe that the indemnification provisions in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. Our By Laws also provide that the Board of Directors may also authorize our company to indemnify our employees or agents, and to advance the reasonable expenses of such persons, to the same extent, following the same determinations and upon the same conditions as are required for the indemnification of and advancement of expenses to our directors and officers. As of the date of this Registration Statement, the Board of Directors has not extended indemnification rights to persons other than directors and officers. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. Item 25. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution The following table sets forth an itemization of all estimated expenses, all of which we will pay, in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being registered: Nature of Expense Amount ----------------- ------ SEC Registration fee $ 40.49 Accounting fees and expenses 3,000.00* Legal fees and expenses 20,000.00* ---------- Blue Sky Fees and Expenses 100.00 Printing and Engraving Expenses 500.00 Miscellaneous 1,000.00 TOTAL $24,640.49* ========== * Estimated Item 26. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities Since we were formed on February 16, 2004, we issued an aggregate of 3,439,500 shares of our common stock to 13 individuals pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and/or Regulation S, promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act. On July 22, 2004, we sold 500,000 shares of our common stock to our President, Simon Levin, for consideration of $25,000. On July 22, 2004, we issued 2,500,000 shares of our common stock to our President, Simon Levin, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Levin Industries Ltd. II-1 On December 31, 2004, we sold 439,500 shares of our common stock to 12 unrelated individuals in a private placement for $0.10 per share. All of the foregoing issuances were exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation S, promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act. None of the purchasers who received shares under Regulation S are U.S. persons as defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S, and no sales efforts were conducted in the U.S., in accordance with Rule 903(c). Such purchasers acknowledged that the securities purchased must come to rest outside the U.S., and the certificates contain a legend restricting the sale of such securities until the Regulation S holding period is satisfied.

Undertakings The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement during any period in which offers or sales are being made: (i) to include any Prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; (ii) to reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually, or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) ((S)230.424(b) of this Chapter) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement; and (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement of any material change to such information in the Registration Statement. (2) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of this offering. (3) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and this offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (4) That, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising from the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. (5) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of Prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of Prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or Rule 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective. II-3 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Act, the Company certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirement for filing on Form SB-2 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in British Columbia, Canada on March 14, 2005.
