SAHLMAN HOLDING COMPANY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2004

Unaudited

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business - Sahlman Holding Company, Inc. (Company), owns 100% of Sahlman Seafoods, Inc. (Sahlman or the Subsidiary), a wholesaler of shrimp and other seafood located in Tampa, Florida. Sahlman's customers are located throughout the United States. Sahlman has three wholly owned foreign subsidiaries. Two are located in Guyana and are involved in the harvesting and processing of shrimp and other seafood. The other foreign subsidiary is located in Nicaragua and is involved in the operation of a shrimp farm and processing plant.

Use of Estimates - The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosed contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable - Trade accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts and trade credit is generally extended on a short-term basis; thus trade receivables do not bear interest. Trade accounts receivable are periodically evaluated for collectibility based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition.

The Company uses the reserve method of accounting for bad debts for financial reporting purposes and the direct write-off method for income tax purposes. Trade accounts receivable are charged against the allowance account when such receivables are deemed to be uncollectible.

Inventories - Inventories of materials and supplies are stated at lower of cost or market, determined under the average cost method. Inventories of finished products are valued at production cost under the average cost method, which is not more than market value. Stock in ponds consists of the direct and indirect costs incurred in the cultivation and maintenance of shrimp.

Other Assets - Prior to 2002, the Company amortized goodwill over a twenty-year period using the straight-line method. However, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and other Intangible Assets" (SFAS No. 142), the Company discontinued the amortization of goodwill effective January 1, 2002. Costs of acquiring loans are capitalized and amortized over the term of the loan using the straight-line method.

Property, Plant and Equipment - Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The Company computes depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Land improvements	15 years
Building	5 - 30 years
Marine vessels	10 - 20 years
Machinery and equipment	5 - 20 years

For income tax purposes, buildings, marine vessels and machinery and equipment are depreciated under the lives and methods of the applicable income tax regulations in effect at the acquisition date.

Income Taxes - The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates.

Concentration of Credit Risk - The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

For the year ended December 31, 2004, one customer accounted for $2,748,000 of the Company's sales.

Foreign Currency Translation - Financial statements for two of the foreign subsidiaries have been remeasured to U.S. dollars considering the dollar as the functional currency. Under this method, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured as of the exchange rate in effect as of the financial statement date; nonmonetary assets and liabilities at the date when they were acquired or incurred; property and equipment at its acquisition date; and capital stock at the exchange rate in effect when recorded. Income and expenses are recorded at an average rate for the year, except for depreciation and amortization whose remeasurement is made at the historical exchange rate. Under this method, gains and losses from remeasurement are recognized in net income of the period. For the year ended December 31, 2004 a net loss of $62,200 on remeasurement is included in other expense. The 2004 loss on remeasurement net of income taxes is $41,000.

Advertising Costs - All of the Company’s advertising costs are nondirect-response costs and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $36,498.

Shipping and Handling Costs - Included in "freight and other sales expense" on the statement of operations is shipping and handling costs of $259,513 for 2004.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever adverse events or changes in business climate indicate that the expected undiscounted future cash flows from the related assets may be less than previously anticipated. If the net book value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows of the asset, the carrying amount would be reduced to the present value of its expected future cash flows and an impairment loss would be recognized. As of December 31, 2004, management does not believe that an impairment reserve is required.

NOTE 2 - INVENTORIES

Inventories consist of the following:

	2004
Seafood products	$	1,233,091
Supplies		1,751,653
Stock in ponds		94,730

Total inventories	$	3,079,474

NOTE 3 - PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment consist of the following:

	2004
Land and land improvements	$	825,405
Buildings		6,054,805
Marine vessels		15,987,066
Machinery and equipment		5,418,794
Furniture and fixtures		350,041

Total property, plant and equipment		28,636,111
Less accumulated depreciation		(10,872,801	)

Property, plant and equipment, net	$	17,763,310

Construction in progress consists of costs incurred for expanding the shrimp processing plant in Nicaragua.

NOTE 4 - OTHER ASSETS

Other assets consist of the following:

	2004
Foreclosed property	$	179,744

Goodwill	$	566,880
Less accumulated amortization		(401,514	)

Goodwill, net	$	165,366

Deferred financing costs	$	85,318
Less accumulated amortization		(44,479	)

Deferred financing costs, net		40,839

Other assets (see Note 11)		76,036

Total other assets, net	$	116,875

During 2004, the Company began foreclosure proceedings to repossess real property in satisfaction of a note receivable defaulted upon by the owners of the property. Management anticipates that the foreclosure will be completed by June 2005 and that there will be a recovery in excess of the $179,744 balance due on the note plus any expenses incurred. Therefore, as of December 31, 2004, $179,744 is included on the balance sheet in other assets. It is the intention of the Company to list the property for sale once the foreclosure is completed.

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, which includes requirements to test goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment rather than amortize them, the Company performed the annual impairment test during fiscal 2004. The results of this test indicated that the Company's goodwill was not impaired, as the fair value of the asset did exceed its carrying value.

As of December 31, 2004 the gross carrying amount of deferred financing costs is $85,318. During 2004, new loan costs were incurred in the amount of $33,324 that are to be amortized over one to three years. Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs included in other expense for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $14,803.

The future estimated amortization expense is as follows:

2005	$	8,448
2006		8,448
2007		8,448
2008		8,448
2009		7,047

	$	40,839

NOTE 5 - SHORT-TERM DEBT

In 1997, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Second Amended Credit Agreement) (see Note 6) with SouthTrust Bank now known as Wachovia Bank, N.A., (SouthTrust), which provided financing under a line of credit facility of up to $2,000,000. During 2003, the line of credit was amended and restated by the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the First Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Third Amended Credit Agreement) with SouthTrust. The Company and the bank desired to amend and restate the Second Amended Credit Agreement to concisely and accurately reflect the current agreements of the parties. The Third Amended Credit Agreement consolidates two term notes outstanding with SouthTrust (see Note 6) and the line of credit was amended to allow for advances not to exceed $2,250,000. Advances are limited based on a formula applied to assets and less any issued letters of credit and accrue interest at the Company’s option at either LIBOR plus 130 to 225 basis points as determined by the Company's ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth or the prime rate of SouthTrust.

During 2004, the line of credit was amended and restated by the Second Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to extend additional credit to the Company and to modify certain provisions of the loan agreement. The Second Amendment allows for advances not to exceed $2,500,000 for the period commencing July 8, 2004 and ending November 4, 2004 and not to exceed $2,250,000 at all other times. Advances accrue interest at LIBOR plus 225 basis points. At December 31, 2004 advances of $1,264,439 were outstanding. The line of credit is secured by the Company's accounts receivable, inventory and certain equipment. The line of credit matures on July 31, 2005 and is subject to annual renewal at SouthTrust's discretion.

NOTE 6 - LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consists of the following:

	2004
SouthTrust term loans	$	2,168,633
Sahlman Seafoods of Nicaragua, SA bank loan		224,085

Total long-term debt		2,392,718
Less current maturities of long-term debt		246,200

Total long-term debt	$	2,146,518

SouthTrust - During 1997, the Company paid off its revolving loan and consolidated the remaining debt balances of the original term loan and Vessel Acquisition Facility Note into one consolidated term loan governed by the provisions of the SouthTrust Second Amended Credit Agreement. On January 23, 2001, the Company refinanced the remaining balance due on this note as of that date into a new 2001 Consolidation Note. The total amount advanced under the agreement was $1,200,000. Advances under the note accrued interest at the LIBOR rate plus 130 to 225 basis points as determined by the Company's ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth. The note was secured by real property with a Negative Pledge Agreement on all shrimp trawlers of the Company.

In 2003, the 1999 term note and the 1999 Vessel Acquisition Facility were consolidated and refinanced with SouthTrust into a new term note, the 2003 Term Loan. The 2003 Term Loan was governed by the provisions of the Third Amended Credit Agreement. The original principal amount of the note was $1,287,667. The note was renewed in August 2003 to increase the principal amount by $250,000 for a note balance of $1,430,362. The note accrued interest at the Company's option at either the LIBOR rate plus 155 to 250 basis points as determined by the Company's ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth or the prime rate of SouthTrust. The loan was to mature on August 15, 2006 and was unsecured; however, SouthTrust required a Negative Pledge Agreement on all shrimp trawlers of the Company as a condition of, and as partial consideration for, entering into the credit agreement.

In 2004, the 2001 Consolidation Note and the 2003 term loan were consolidated and refinanced with SouthTrust into a new term note, the 2004 Consolidation Note. The 2004 Consolidation Note is governed by the provisions of the Third Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The original principal amount of the note was $2,193,000, which included an advance in the principal amount of $454,659. The note accrues interest at the Company's option at either the LIBOR rate plus 155 to 250 basis points as determined by the Company's ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth or the prime rate of SouthTrust. At December 31, 2004, the loan bore interest at 4.7% and is to be repaid in equal monthly installments of $12,183. The loan matures on October 28, 2009 and is secured by real property with a Negative Pledge Agreement on all shrimp trawlers of the Company. The outstanding balance at December 31, 2004 was $2,168,333.

The loan agreements contain certain restrictive covenants requiring the Company to meet certain financial ratios and other matters. At December 31, 2004, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

Other long-term debt in the amount of $150,000 originated in 2003, with an additional $150,000 in 2004, in connection with one of the wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sahlman Seafoods of Nicaragua, S.A. (SSN). The note matures on December 11, 2006 and is payable in 36 monthly installments bearing an annual interest rate of 9.55%. The loan is guaranteed by equipment and a mortgage on land and facilities of SSN. In addition, a new car loan was taken out in October 2001 in the amount of $17,386 payable in 36 monthly installments of $483 beginning on November 30, 2001 at 0% interest.

Aggregate maturities of long-term debt during the five years ending in 2009 are as follows:

2005	$	246,200
2006		270,285
2007		146,200
2008		146,200
2009		1,583,833

	$	2,392,718

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

For the year ended December 31, 2004 the benefit from income taxes consists of the following:

	2004
Current
Federal	$	(46,900	)
Foreign		49,377

Total current		2,477

Deferred
Federal		(212,720	)
State		(10,020	)
Foreign		(19,437	)

Total deferred		(242,177	)

Total benefit from income taxes	$	(239,700	)

Deferred income taxes resulting from the tax effects of temporary differences consist of book depreciation in excess of tax depreciation, fixed asset sales, reserves and accrued expenses, intercompany profit and unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries. Other differences between income taxes computed using the statutory federal and state income tax rates and the provision for income taxes are attributed primarily to foreign income being subject only to federal income tax. Net deferred tax liabilities and assets are $2,571,401 at December 31, 2004.

A valuation allowance for the cumulative state loss carryforward of $2,068,000, resulting in a deferred tax asset of $114,000, is not considered necessary as it is anticipated that future income will absorb the losses. The state loss carryforward expires from 2021 to 2024.

NOTE 8 - CAPITAL STOCK

Common Stock - The Company has four classes of authorized common stock: Class A, B, C and D. Under the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the relative rights and preferences of each class of stock are as follows:

Voting Rights - The holders of Class A, B and C common stock will vote together as a single combined class on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders, with each holder of Class A, B and C common stock being entitled to one vote per share of such stock held. The holders of Class D common shares have no right to vote on any matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders.

Liquidation Preferences - Upon dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Corporation, holders of Class B common stock are entitled to a minimum liquidation value of $100 per share. Holders of Class C and D common stock are then entitled to the remaining assets available for distribution after the distribution to holders of Class B based upon the number of shares of C and D shares over the total number of common shares outstanding. Remaining distributions shall be to all holders of Class A and B shares on the basis of the number of such shares outstanding.

Redeemable Stock - If any employee ceases to be employed, then such employee’s Class A stock that was purchased through the exercise of options will be subject to repurchase by the Company. The Company has the right of first refusal to purchase any or all of such Class A common stock held, if such employee’s termination was with or without cause or if termination is the result of death, disability, or achieving the age of 65. If the employee voluntarily terminates or is terminated for cause, the repurchase price for Class A common stock will be the lesser of the price the employee paid for the repurchased shares plus seven percent annual simple interest, or the value of such repurchased shares on the date 30 days prior to the date of termination. If the employee is terminated without cause or if the termination is a result of death, disability, or achieving the age of 65, the repurchase price of Class A common stock will be the value as defined in the Stock Options and Repurchase Agreement of such repurchased shares on the date 30 days prior to the date of termination.

Convertible Stock - Class D common stock is convertible into shares of Class C common stock. Such conversion will be effected by the surrender of the Class D common stock in exchange for the Class C common stock upon consummation of an initial public, Rule 144, or Regulation A offering or upon the sale of Class C common stock to those shares convertible to Class C shares equaling 2% or more of the outstanding common stock having voting rights.

Additional stock information is as follows:

NOTE 9 - STOCK OPTION PLANS

During 2001, 1999, 1998 and 1997, the Company’s stockholders approved the granting of incentive stock options for shares of Class A common stock to key executives and management. Under the Stock Option and Repurchase Agreements, all options were granted at a price of $160.08, which is considered by management to be equal to market value on the date of grant. All options are exercisable immediately.

A summary of option transactions during the year ended December 31, 2004 is shown below:

	Number
	of		Weighted Average
	Shares		Option Price
Options (granted and unexercised)
at January 1, 2004		4,117	$	160.08
Granted		-		-
Exercised		-		-
Forfeited		-		-

Options (granted and unexercised)
at December 31, 2004		4,117	$	160.08

The fair value of the options is determined by the management of the Company. The Company applies APB Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock option plans. Had compensation cost been determined based on the fair value at the grant date consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the net loss of the Company would not have been affected in 2004.

NOTE 10 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

The subsidiary has a 401(k) Profit Sharing and Savings Plan (the Plan) covering nearly all employees of the domestic company. Under the provisions of the Plan, participants have the right to make employee contributions in whole percentages of not less than two percent or more than fifteen percent of their gross annual earnings, subject to limitations prescribed by law. Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan if they are age eighteen or older and have completed six months of service. Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and earnings thereon.

The Company may elect to match the employees’ contributions, but not in excess of two percent of the participant’s gross annual earnings. The Company contributions to this plan were $12,553 for the year 2004.

NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation - In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its Subsidiary are involved in litigation primarily as a result of injuries sustained during shrimp boat operations. The Company is self-insured for these claims. Management believes that the reserves are adequate to cover unpaid losses that have been incurred as of December 31, 2004.

Insurance Coverage - The Company provides insurance for workers’ compensation claims and boat reserve claims. The Company is fully insured for group health care claims. In the opinion of management, the boat reserve of $3,000 included in accrued expenses represents adequate provision for covering unpaid losses which have been incurred as of the year ended December 31, 2004. The Company had a protection and indemnity insurance policy to cover the employees working on the shrimp boats. This policy expired on December 15, 2001, and the Company has decided not to renew it as all of the boats are now St. Vincent registry, which the Company feels will virtually eliminate the risk of future claims in the United States.

Rights and Concessions - SSN has entered into contracts for the construction of shrimp farming operations located in Nicaragua.

One contract entered into during 1997 and 1998 is for a 1,787.5 acre land lease for twenty years with the government of Nicaragua. Payments of $52,606 have been made with additional payments of 1% of the gross sales due annually to the government once production begins. No additional amounts have been paid in connection with the requirements of the lease, nor has any been accrued, as construction has not begun as of December 31, 2004. Under the terms of the lease, construction was required to begin by October 1, 1998. The Company is undecided as to when, or if, they will begin construction.

In November 2000, SSN was granted the right to construct a shrimp farm in exchange for a fee of $50,000 paid to a Nicaraguan government agency.

The payments made under these agreements are included with other assets and at December 31, 2004 amounted to $66,897 net of amortization. Payments relating to these rights and concessions are being amortized over 20 years using the straight-line method.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Other Assets - Prior to 2002, the Company amortized goodwill over a twenty-year period using the straight-line method. However, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 142, "Goodwill and other Intangible Assets" (Statement No. 142), the Company discontinued the amortization of goodwill effective January 1, 2002 (see Note 4).

Costs of acquiring loans are capitalized and amortized over the term of the loan using the straight line method.

Land improvements	15 years
Building	5 - 30 years
Marine vessels	10 - 20 years
Machinery and equipment	5 - 20 years

For income tax purposes, buildings, marine vessels and machinery and equipment are depreciated under the lives and methods of the applicable income tax regulations in effect at the acquisition date. Effective January 1, 2003, the salvage value was changed on the marine vessels to more accurately reflect their depreciable value. (See Note 3)

Income Taxes - The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates.

For the year ended December 31, 2003, three customers accounted for $5,269,000 of the Company's sales.

Foreign Currency Translation - Financial statements for two of the foreign subsidiaries have been remeasured to U.S. dollars considering the dollar as the functional currency. Under this method, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at the exchange rate in effect as of the financial statement date; nonmonetary assets and liabilities at the date when they were acquired or incurred; property and equipment at its acquisition date; and capital stock at the exchange rate in effect when recorded. Income and expenses are recorded at an average rate for the year, except for depreciation and amortization whose remeasurement is made at the historical exchange rate. Under this method, gains and losses from remeasurement are recognized in net income of the period. For the year ended December 31, 2003, a net loss of $385,000 on remeasurement is included in other expense. The 2003 loss on remeasurement net of income taxes is $254,000. In years prior to 1998, the foreign currency was considered the functional currency and gains or losses on exchange were recorded as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

Advertising Costs - All of the Company’s advertising costs are nondirect-response costs and are expensed as incurred. Total advertising costs for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $92,654.

Shipping and Handling Costs - Included in "freight and other sales expense" on the statement of operations is shipping and handling costs of $214,451 for 2003.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever adverse events or changes in business climate indicate that the expected undiscounted future cash flows from the related assets may be less than previously anticipated. If the net book value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows of the asset, the carrying amount would be reduced to the present value of its expected future cash flows and an impairment loss would be recognized. As of December 31, 2003, management does not believe that an impairment reserve is required.

Asset Disposals - During 2003, the Company sold four shrimp trawlers for $1,130,000. A portion of the total proceeds was used to pay down the term debt upon the bank's approval. The cost of the four vessels sold totaled $1,768,000 with accumulated depreciation of $900,000 leaving a net book value of $868,000. After expenses to ready the boats for sale, the Company recognized a gain on the sale in the amount of $234,355.

The sale of the vessels will reduce the high repair expense incurred in previous years on the vessels as well as reduce interest on the loan, enabling the Company to improve its loan service position.

NOTE 2 - INVENTORIES

Inventories consist of the following:

	2003
Seafood products	$	1,474,220
Supplies		1,635,113
Stock in ponds		95,237

Total inventories	$	3,204,570

NOTE 3 - PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment consist of the following:

	2003
Land	$	561,854
Land improvements		1,542,668
Buildings		4,383,481
Marine vessels		15,990,078
Machinery and equipment		5,802,766
Furniture and fixtures		750,841
Construction in progress		223,950

Total property, plant and equipment		29,255,638
Less accumulated depreciation		(10,742,840	)

Property, plant and equipment, net	$	18,512,798

Effective January 1, 2003, the Company changed the salvage value of their shrimp trawlers from $100,000 to $200,000. This change was made to more accurately reflect the value expected to be received by the Company upon the sale of their used boats and was based on used shrimp trawler sales by the Company in recent years. For 2003, this change resulted in a $443,000 reduction in depreciation expense and a reduction in the net loss after income taxes of $276,000.

Construction in progress consists of costs incurred for expanding the shrimp processing plant in Nicaragua.

NOTE 4 - OTHER ASSETS

Other assets consist of the following:

	2003
Goodwill	$	566,880
Less accumulated amortization		(401,514	)

Goodwill, net	$	165,366

Deferred financing costs	$	51,994
Less accumulated amortization		(29,676	)

Deferred financing costs, net		22,318

Other assets (see Note 11)		93,102

Total other assets, net	$	115,420

In June 2001, FASB issued Statement No. 142, which includes requirements to test goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment rather than amortize them. The provisions of Statement No. 142 require an annual impairment test. In accordance with the provisions of Statement No. 142, the Company performed the annual impairment test during fiscal 2003. The results of this test indicated that the Company's goodwill was not impaired, as the fair value of the asset did exceed its carrying value.

As of December 31, 2003, the gross carrying amount of deferred financing costs is $51,994. During 2003, new loan costs were incurred in the amount of $16,122 that are to be amortized over three years. Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs included in other expense for the year ended December 31, 2003.

The future estimated amortization expense is as follows:

2004	$	9,224
2005		8,674
2006		4,420

	$	22,318

NOTE 5 - SHORT-TERM DEBT

In 1997, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Second Amended Credit Agreement) (see Note 6) with SouthTrust Bank, (SouthTrust), which provided financing under a line of credit facility of up to $2,000,000. During 2003, the line of credit was amended and restated by the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the First Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Third Amended Credit Agreement) with SouthTrust. The Company and the bank desired to amend and restate the Second Amended Credit Agreement to concisely and accurately reflect the current agreements of the parties. The Third Amended Credit Agreement consolidates two term notes outstanding with SouthTrust (see Note 6) and the line of credit was amended to allow for advances not to exceed $2,250,000. Advances are limited based on a formula applied to assets and less any issued letters of credit. Advances accrue interest at the Company’s option at either LIBOR plus 130 to 225 basis points as determined by the Company's ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth or the prime rate of SouthTrust. At December 31, 2003, advances of $1,731,000 were outstanding. The line of credit is secured by the Company's accounts receivable, inventory and certain equipment. The line of credit matures on July 31, 2004 and is subject to annual renewal at SouthTrust's discretion.

NOTE 6 - LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consists of the following:

	2003
SouthTrust term loans	$	2,202,330
Sahlman Seafoods of Nicaragua, SA bank loan		150,000
Other		4,830

Total long-term debt		2,357,160
Less current maturities of long-term debt		611,617

Total long-term debt	$	1,745,543

SouthTrust - During 1997, the Company paid off its revolving loan and consolidated the remaining debt balances of the original term loan and Vessel Acquisition Facility Note into one consolidated term loan governed by the provisions of the SouthTrust Second Amended Credit Agreement. On January 23, 2001, the Company refinanced the remaining balance due on this note as of that date into a new 2001 Consolidation Note. The total amount advanced under the agreement was $1,200,000. Advances under the note accrue interest at the LIBOR rate plus 130 to 225 basis points as determined by the Company's ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth. The loan bore interest at 2.619% at December 31, 2003, and is to be repaid in equal monthly installments of $6,667 with a final payment of $800,000 due January 23, 2006. The note is secured by real property with a Negative Pledge Agreement on all shrimp trawlers of the Company. The outstanding balance at December 31, 2003 was $966,667.

In 2003, the 1999 term note and the 1999 Vessel Acquisition Facility were consolidated and refinanced with SouthTrust into a new term note, the 2003 Term Loan. The 2003 Term Loan is governed by the provisions of the Third Amended Credit Agreement. The original principal amount of the note was $1,287,667. The note was renewed in August 2003 to increase the principal amount by $250,000 for a note balance of $1,430,362. The note accrues interest at the Company's option at either the LIBOR rate plus 155 to 250 basis points as determined by the Company's ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth or the prime rate of SouthTrust. At December 31, 2003, the loan bore interest at 2.7% and is to be repaid in equal monthly installments of $39,732. The loan matures on August 15, 2006 and is unsecured; however, SouthTrust has required a Negative Pledge Agreement on all shrimp trawlers of the Company as a condition of, and as partial consideration for, entering into the credit agreement. At December 31, 2003, the outstanding loan balance was $1,235,663.

The loan agreements contain certain restrictive covenants requiring the Company to meet certain ratios and other matters. At December 31, 2003, the Company was not in compliance with one of these covenants. On March 18, 2004, the bank has agreed to waive compliance with this covenant.

Other long-term debt in the amount of $150,000 originated in 2003 in connection with one of the wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sahlman Seafoods of Nicaragua, S.A. (SSN). The note matures on December 11, 2006 and is payable in 36 monthly installments bearing an annual interest rate of 9.55%. The loan is guaranteed by equipment and a mortgage on land and facilities of SSN. In addition, a new car loan was taken out in October 2001 in the amount of $17,386 payable in 36 monthly installments of $483 beginning on November 30, 2001 at 0% interest.

Aggregate maturities of long-term debt during the three years ending in 2006 are as follows:

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

For the years ended December 31, 2003, the provision for (benefit from) income taxes consists of the following:

	2003
Current
Federal	$	354,941

Total current		354,941

Total provision for (benefit from) income taxes	$	(729,104	)

During 2003, the Company's 2000, 2001 and 2002 income tax returns were examined by the IRS. As a result of the examination, taxable income will be recognized in 2003 in the amount of $932,400 from unremitted earnings of a foreign subsidiary. The effect of this change on the balance sheet is to reclassify deferred income taxes - long term liability in the amount of $317,000 to income taxes currently payable.

For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company had a federal tax loss of approximately $664,000. This loss will be carried back to recover federal income taxes of $225,626 paid in 2002. For state income tax purposes, this loss will be carried forward to offset taxable income of future years. A valuation allowance for the cumulative state loss carryforward of $1,930,000, resulting in a deferred tax asset of $106,000, is not considered necessary, as it is anticipated that future income will absorb the losses. The state loss carryforward expires from 2021 to 2024.

A summary of option transactions during the years ended December 31, 2003 is shown below:

The fair value of the options is determined by the management of the Company. The Company applies APB Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock option plans. Had compensation cost been determined based on the fair value at the grant date consistent with the method of FASB No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the net loss of the Company would not have been affected in 2003.

NOTE 10 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Insurance Coverage - The Company provides insurance for workers’ compensation claims and boat reserve claims. The Company is fully insured for group health care claims. In the opinion of management, the reserve for workers’ compensation claims of approximately $180,000 and the boat reserve of $9,000 included in accrued expenses represent adequate provision for covering unpaid losses which have been incurred as of the year ended December 31, 2003. The Company had a protection and indemnity insurance policy to cover the employees working on the shrimp boats. This policy expired on December 15, 2001, and the Company has decided not to renew it as all of the boats are now St. Vincent registry, which the Company feels will virtually eliminate the risk of future claims in the United States.

Letters of Credit - The Company was contingently liable as of December 31, 2003 for $175,000 related to letters of credit which guarantee workers’ compensation claims.

Rights and Concessions - SSN has entered into contracts for the construction of shrimp farming operations located in Nicaragua.

One contract entered into during 1997 and 1998, is for a 1,787.5 acre land lease for twenty years with the government of Nicaragua. Payments of $52,606 have been made with additional payments of 1% of the gross sales due annually to the government once production begins. No additional amounts have been paid in connection with the requirements of the lease, nor has any been accrued, as construction has not begun as of December 31, 2003. Under the terms of the lease, construction was required to begin by October 1, 1998. The Company is undecided as to when, or if, they will begin construction.

In November 2000, SSN was granted the right to construct a shrimp farm in exchange for a fee of $50,000 paid to a Nicaraguan government agency.

The payments made under these agreements are included with other assets and at December 31, 2003, amounted to $74,112 net of amortization. Payments relating to these rights and concessions are being amortized over 20 years using the straight-line method.

NOTE 12 - RECONCILIATION OF SSN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The financial statements of SSN were audited by other auditors in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Included in the financial statements of SSN is the recognition and recording of depreciation of buildings on the basis of an estimated useful life of ten years. Management of the Company is of the opinion that the proper estimated useful life for the buildings of SSN is twenty-five years. Following is a reconciliation of the significant differences in amounts reported in the financial statements of SSN of the other auditors to the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as a result of recording the depreciation of the buildings of SSN based on an estimated life of twenty-five years.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2002

Unaudited

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable - The Company uses the reserve method of accounting for bad debts for financial reporting purposes and the direct write-off method for income tax purposes.

Land improvements	15 years
Building	5 - 30 years
Marine vessels	10 - 20 years
Machinery and equipment	5 - 20 years

For income tax purposes, buildings, marine vessels and machinery and equipment are depreciated under the lives and methods of the applicable income tax regulations in effect at the acquisition date.

For the year ended December 31, 2002, four customers accounted for $7,789,000 of the Company's sales.

Foreign Currency Translation - Financial statements for two of the foreign subsidiaries have been remeasured to U.S. dollars considering the dollar as the functional currency. Under this method, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured as of the exchange rate in effect as of the financial statement date; nonmonetary assets and liabilities at the date when they were acquired or incurred; property and equipment at its acquisition date; and capital stock at the exchange rate in effect when recorded. Income and expenses are recorded at an average rate for the year, except for depreciation and amortization whose remeasurement is made at the historical exchange rate. Under this method, gains and losses from remeasurement are recognized in net income of the period. For the year ended December 31, 2002 a net loss of $238,900 on remeasurement is included in other expense. The 2002 loss on remeasurement net of income taxes is $157,700.

Advertising Costs - All of the Company’s advertising costs are nondirect-response costs and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs for the year ended December 31, 2002 were $77,167.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever adverse events or changes in business climate indicate that the expected undiscounted future cash flows from the related assets may be less than previously anticipated. If the net book value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows of the asset, the carrying amount would be reduced to the present value of its expected future cash flows and an impairment loss would be recognized. As of December 31, 2002, management does not believe that an impairment reserve is required.

Asset Disposals - During 2002, the Company sold ten older shrimp trawlers for $2,445,000. Net sales proceeds in the amount of $1,874,000 were used to pay down the term debt in accordance with the loan agreement. The sale of the vessels will reduce the high repair expense incurred in previous years on the vessels as well as reduce interest on the loan, enabling the Company to improve its loan service position. The cost of the ten vessels sold totaled $3,808,000 with accumulated depreciation f $2,807,000, leaving a net book value of $1,001,000. After expenses to ready the boats for sale, the Company recognized a gain on the sale in the amount of $1,338,468.

Less accumulated amortization		(401,514	)

Goodwill, net	$	165,366

Less accumulated amortization		(20,596	)

Deferred financing costs, net		15,276

Other assets (see Note 11)		92,699

Total other assets, net	$	107,975

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 142, which includes requirements to test goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment rather than amortize them. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 require an annual impairment test. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, the Company performed the annual impairment test during fiscal 2002. The results of this test indicated that the Company's goodwill was not impaired, as the fair value of the asset did exceed its carrying value.

As of December 31, 2002 the gross carrying amount of deferred financing costs is $35,872. During 2002, loans with costs in the amount of $205,894 expired, thereby reducing the gross carrying amount. Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs included in other expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 was $9,843.

The future estimated amortization expense is as follows:

2003	$	6,600
2004		3,850
2005		3,300
2006		950
2007		576

	$	15,276

NOTE 5 - SHORT-TERM DEBT

In 1997, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Second Amended Credit Agreement) (see Note 6) with SouthTrust Bank, National Association (SouthTrust), which provides financing under a line of credit facility of up to $2,000,000. Advances are limited based on a formula applied to assets and less any issued letters of credit and accrue interest at the Company’s option at either LIBOR plus 130 to 240 basis points as determined by the Company's ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth or the prime rate of SouthTrust. At December 31, 2002 advances of $1,510,047 were outstanding. The line of credit is secured by the Company's accounts receivable, inventory and certain equipment. The line of credit matures on July 31, 2003 and is subject to annual renewal at SouthTrust's discretion.

NOTE 6 - LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consists of the following:

	2002
SouthTrust term loans	$	2,745,763
Other		10,625

Total long-term debt		2,756,388
Less current maturities of long-term debt		1,471,510

Total long-term debt	$	1,284,878

SouthTrust - During 1997, the Company paid off its revolving loan and consolidated the remaining debt balances of the original term loan and Vessel Acquisition Facility Note into one consolidated term loan governed by the provisions of the SouthTrust Second Amended Credit Agreement. On January 23, 2001, the Company refinanced the remaining balance due on this note as of that date into a new 2001 Consolidation Note. The total amount advanced under the agreement was $1,200,000. Advances under the note accrue interest at the LIBOR rate plus 130 to 225 basis points as determined by the Company's ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth. The loan bore interest at 2.88% at December 31, 2002 and is to be repaid in equal monthly installments of $6,667 with a final payment of $800,000 due January 23, 2006. The note is secured by real property with a Negative Pledge Agreement on all shrimp trawlers of the Company. The outstanding balance at December 31, 2002 was $1,046,667.

On July 31, 2001, a short-term loan was renewed for $880,000 with a maturity date of July 31, 2003. The renewed term loan bore interest at the LIBOR rate plus 130 to 225 basis points as determined by the Company’s ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth. The renewed loan required equal monthly principal payments in the amount of $10,476 plus accrued interest beginning September 1, 2001. The loan was paid off during 2002.

In February 1999, the Company entered into an additional term loan agreement with SouthTrust. The loan proceeds of $5,500,000 were used to redeem the Polk County Industrial Revenue Bonds. The loan accrues interest at the Company’s option as either the LIBOR rate plus 155 to 265 basis points as determined by the Company’s ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth or the prime rate of SouthTrust. The term loan bore interest at 2.93% at December 31, 2002, and is to be repaid in 60 equal monthly installments of $91,667. The loan matures on February 24, 2004 and is secured by real property. The outstanding balance at December 31, 2002 was $1,375,000.

In August 1999, the Company entered into the 1999 Vessel Acquisition Facility with SouthTrust. Under the terms of this agreement, the aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time is not to exceed $2,000,000. The loan accrues interest at the Company’s option at either the LIBOR rate plus 155 to 265 basis points as determined by the Company’s ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth or the prime rate of SouthTrust. The loan bore interest at 2.93% at December 31, 2002, and is to be repaid in 84 equal monthly installments of $23,810. The loan matures on August 5, 2003 and is unsecured. The outstanding balance at December 31, 2002 was $324,096.

The loan agreements contain certain restrictive covenants requiring the Company to meet certain financial ratios and other matters. At December 31, 2002, the Company was not in compliance with one of these covenants. The bank has agreed to waive compliance with this covenant.

Other long-term debt in the original amount of $11,500 is in connection with expenses related to the sale of a commercial building in Lakeland, Florida. The note calls for four annual payments in the amount of $2,875, commencing February 12, 1999, and bearing interest at 8.5% per annum. In addition, a new car loan was taken out in October 2001 in the amount of $17,386 payable in 36 monthly installments of $483 beginning on November 30, 2001 at 0% interest.

Aggregate maturities of long-term debt during the four years ending in 2006 are as follows:

2003	$	1,471,510
2004		398,211
2005		80,000
2006		806,667

In the opinion of management, the reserve for workers’ compensation claims of approximately $176,000 and the boat reserve of $11,000 included in accrued expenses represent adequate provision for covering unpaid losses which have been incurred as of the year ended December 31, 2002. The Company had a protection and indemnity insurance policy to cover the employees working on the shrimp boats.
