Our name change was effected in 1984. Arbor engages in the production and wholesale distribution of wood products for home use, principally fireplace wood and garden stakes. The fireplace wood, which is sold under the name "Arborlogs(R)", is shrink wrapped in bundles of approximately 6 pieces each. Tomato stakes are delivered in bulk to be sold individually. Arbor's products are packaged in and distributed from Arbor's facility in Little Marsh, Pennsylvania, and then delivered by various independent trucking concerns to customer locations in the northeastern United States. Uncut logs and cut firewood are purchased from various loggers and cut and split, if necessary, and packaged and palletized. Garden stakes are purchased precut and are banded with a UPC code for customer delivery. Arbor also trades securities for its own account. Customers Substantially all of Arbor's products are sold to Home Depot Inc. for resale at its retail outlets. Arbor has no written agreement with Home Depot with respect to these sales. Arbor believes it has a good relationship with Home Depot, but were sales to Home Depot to diminish or cease for any reason, Arbor's business would not be viable unless it developed relationships with Home Depot's competitors in this area, such as lawn and garden shops, hardware stores and supermarkets. Suppliers Arbor obtains logs, cut firewood and garden stakes from many independent loggers. Arbor believes that if it could no longer obtain its raw logs and firewood from loggers it currently utilizes, there are many alternate sources of supply, including commencing logging operations on its own forest land. Competition Arbor competes with many other wood product companies. Some of the major competitors are Ultraflame and Ossipee. Arbor also competes with local tree companies and others who sell wood by the cord. Arbor competes on the basis of price, consistency of product quality and prompt delivery. Arbor also competes with paper firelog companies and with suppliers of metal plant cages and stakes. Intellectual Property The trademark "Arborlogs(R)" has been registered with the U.S. Trademark and Copyright Office. While there can be no guarantee that some entity will not attempt to utilize the same name, we believe we have taken adequate steps to protect this trademark. Governmental Regulation There are no government regulations which materially impact our packaging and distribution operations, except for regulations promulgated by OSHA (the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Agency), pursuant to which we are required to maintain a safe warehouse environment for our workers, and by state departments of weights and measures with respect to the labeling of our products. Personnel Arbor is a seasonal employer. The number of employees ranges from a high of approximately 17 from September to January to 4 in the remaining months. One is an officer, who is fulltime, one is a full-time foreman and from 2 to 15 full-time employees are in the wood preparation and packaging area. Sales and marketing is undertaken by Arbor's Executive Vice President; a foreman oversees production at the Pennsylvania facility. Arbor's president and treasurer serve in a part-time capacity and do not devote a substantial amount of time to the affairs of Arbor. There are no employment contracts with any employee and no employee is unionized. Legal Proceedings Arbor is not currently involved in any outstanding legal proceedings. In the ordinary course of business Arbor may become involved in proceedings involving workers' compensation, trucking issues and disputes involving orders, none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on its business. How to Contact Arbor Arbor's principal executive offices are located RD 1, Box 1076, Little Marsh, Pennsylvania, and its telephone number is (570) 376-2217. Arbor is not required to deliver an annual report to security holders, and no such report will be sent. Arbor does not file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The public may read and copy this Form 10-SB and any other materials filed with the SEC at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS General We are a wood products company which has been in business since 1980. Our business has increased over the years. We are almost wholly dependent on sales to Home Depot. Arbor also trades securities for its own account. Results of Operations Fiscal year ended April 30, 1999 compared to the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998. Net sales for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999 were approximately $1,048,000, an increase of 42% as compared to net sales of approximately $737,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998. Net sales increased due to additional sales to Home Depot. Net gains from trading securities were approximately $255,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999, an increase of 190% as compared to net gains from trading securities of approximately $88,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998. Net gains increased from more successful trading. Cost of sales were approximately $518,000 for fiscal 1999, an increase of approximately $253,000, or 95% over fiscal 1998 cost of sales of approximately $265,000. This increase is primarily attributable to Arbor's growth in sales and Arbor's reduction in gross profit margins in connection with higher sales. Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $755,000 for fiscal 1999, an increase of approximately $227,000, or 43% over fiscal 1998 selling general and administrative expenses of approximately $528,000. This increase was due to additional salary and other expenses incurred in connection with Arbor's growth in sales and trading income. Interest income for fiscal 1999 was approximately $123,000, an increase of approximately $36,000, or 41% over fiscal 1998 interest income of approximately $87,000. This increase was primarily attributable to greater loan balances due from related parties. The income tax provision increased from approximately $18,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998 to approximately $49,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999. This increase of 172% was primarily attributable to greater taxable income and a lesser amount of net operating loss utilization compared to fiscal 1998. Arbor's net income increased from approximately $66,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998 to approximately $88,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999. This was an increase of approximately $22,000, or 33%. The results of operations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future interim or fiscal year period. Fiscal year ended April 30, 1998 compared to fiscal year ended April 30, 1997. Net sales for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998 were approximately $737,000, a decrease of 4% as compared to net sales of approximately $764,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1997. Net gains from trading securities were approximately $88,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998, an decrease of 74% as compared to net gains from trading securities of approximately $338,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1997. Net gains decreased because of less successful trading. Cost of sales were approximately $265,000 for fiscal 1998, a decrease of approximately $99,000, or 27% over fiscal 1997 cost of sales of approximately $364,000. This decrease is primarily attributable to Arbor's ability to purchase and produce its products at a lower cost. Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $528,000 for fiscal 1998, an increase of approximately $180,000, or 52% over fiscal 1997 selling general and administrative expenses of approximately $348,000. This increase was due to additional salary and other expenses incurred in connection with Arbor's growth in sales and trading income. Interest income for fiscal 1998 was approximately $87,000, an increase of approximately $54,000, or 164% over fiscal 1997 interest income of approximately $33,000. This increase was primarily attributable to greater loan balances due from related parties. The income tax provision decreased from approximately $36,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1997 to approximately $18,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998. This decrease of 50% was primarily attributable to a higher level of utilization of net operating loss carryforwards, offsetting higher taxable income. Arbor's net income decreased from approximately $387,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1997, to approximately $66,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998. This was a decrease of approximately $321,000, or 83% due primarily to a significant decrease in gains from Arbor's securities trading activities. The results of operations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future interim or fiscal year period. Liquidity and Capital Resources In the periods discussed above, Arbor's working capital requirements have been met primarily from sales of its wood products and gains from its trading activities. At April 30, 1999 we had a working capital of approximately $666,000. As at April 30, 1999, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $887,000, which represented approximately 40% of total assets. Arbor believes it has adequate working capital and will generate net revenues adequate to fund its operations for at least the next 12 months. Year 2000 Issues We have devised a plan and have substantially completed a review and assessment of all hardware and software and believe that our hardware and software are substantially year 2000 compliant so that the computer programs do not cease functioning because of an inability to process on a date occurring from and after January 1, 2000. Our review has not revealed any Year 2000 issues that cannot be remediated in a timely manner. We do not believe that any remediation costs will be material.

The mill consists of an enclosed structure of 17,000 square feet, with a 7,000 outdoor overhang for airing of inventory.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements. F-6 ARBOR ENTECH CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS APRIL 30, 1999 NOTE 1 - Nature of Business Arbor Entech Corporation (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation that engages in the production and wholesale distribution of wood products for home use, principally fireplace wood and garden stakes. NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less at time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. Property and Equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred where are major betterments and renewals are capitalized. Marketable Securities The Company accounts for its investments in marketable securities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." Management determines the appropriate classification of all securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. The Company classifies all of its debt and marketable equity securities as trading securities. The Company's trading securities are classified as current assets and are recorded at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, are included in earnings. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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-7 ARBOR ENTECH CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS APRIL 30, 1999 NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Stock-Based Compensation In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS No. 123"), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". SFAS No. 123 encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has elected to continue to account for its employee stock-based compensation plans using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB No. 25"), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and to disclose the pro forma effect on net earnings per share had the fair value of options been expensed. Under the provisions of APB No. 25, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the estimated market value of the Company's common stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Revenue Recognition Sales are recorded as products are shipped. Income Taxes The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under such method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The resulting asset or liability is adjusted to reflect enacted changes in tax law. Future tax benefits attributable to temporary differences are recognized to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely than not. Earnings Per Common Share In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128"), which replaced APB No. 15 to conform earning per share with international standards as well as to simplify the complexity of the computation under APB No. 15. The previous primary earnings per share ("EPS") calculation is replaced with a basic EPS calculation. The basic EPS differs from the primary EPS calculation in that the basic EPS does not include any potentially dilutive securities. Fully dilutive EPS is replaced with diluted EPS and should be disclosed regardless of dilutive impact to basic EPS. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company's financial instruments, which consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and long-term receivables and debt, approximate their carrying amounts reported. F-8 ARBOR ENTECH CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS APRIL 30, 1999 NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Concentration of Credit Risk The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents. At times, such amounts are in excess of the FDIC and SIPC insurance limits. The Company's customer base is comprised primarily of one major national retailer. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and records an allowance for doubtful accounts when it determines that collection of a particular amount is unlikely. NOTE 3 - Inventories Inventories consist of the following: Raw Materials $28,480 Finished Goods 41,698 ------- $70,178 ======= NOTE 4 - Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment consists of the following: Estimated Useful Life ----------- Land $ 3,000 -- Building and Improvements 61,114 15-31 Years Machinery and Equipment 4,300 5 Years Delivery Equipment 21,831 5 Years ------- 90,245 Less: Accumulated Depreciation 47,939 ------- $42,306 ======= NOTE 5 - Loans Receivable - Related Parties Loans receivable from related parties consists of amounts due from officers and affiliated companies. These loans have no specific repayment terms and bear interest at 8% per annum. NOTE 6 - Loan Payable - Related Party Loan payable to a related party consists of amounts due to an affiliated company. The loan has no specific repayment terms and bears interest at 8% per annum. F-9 ARBOR ENTECH CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS APRIL 30, 1999 NOTE 7 - Income Taxes Income tax provision consisted of the following: Years Ended April 30, ----------------------- 1999 1998 ------- -------- (Unaudited) Current Federal $29,000 $ -- State 20,000 17,669 ------- ------- 49,000 17,669 ------- ------- Deferred Federal -- -- State -- -- ------- ------- -- -- ------- ------- $49,000 $17,669 ======= ======= The following is a reconciliation of the US statutory income tax rate and the effective tax rate on pretax income: Years Ended April 30, -------------------- 1999 1998 ------- -------- (Unaudited) US federal statutory rate 34% 34% State taxes, net of federal tax Benefit 9.6 13.9 Benefit of net operating loss carryforward (17.1) (34%) Other, net 9.2 7.2 ------- ------- Effective tax rate $ 35.7 $ 21.1% ======= ======= NOTE 8 - Commitments and Contingencies Legal The Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims which may arise in the ordinary course of its business. Currently, the Company is not a party to any known legal proceedings. F-10 ARBOR ENTECH CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS APRIL 30, 1999 NOTE 9 - Major Customers Net sales to a major national retailer in 1999 and 1998 accounted for approximately 98% and 97% of net sales, respectively. As of April 30, 1999, 100% of accounts receivable are amounts due from a major national retailer. NOTE 10 - Year 2000 Considerations The "Year 2000" problem relates to computer systems that have time and date-sensitive programs that were designed to read years beginning with "19", but may not properly recognize the year 2000. If a computer system or software application used by the Company or a third party dealing with the Company fails because of the inability of the system of application to properly read the year 2000 the results could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company's review of its own operating systems has not revealed any Year 2000 issues that cannot be remediated in a timely manner. However, the Company is dependent on third party vendors. Failures and interruptions, if any, resulting from the inability of certain computing systems of third party vendors to recognize the Year 2000 could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. There can be no assurance that the Year 2000 issue can be resolved by any of such third parties prior to the upcoming change in the century. Although the Company may incur substantial costs, as a result of such third party service providers correcting Year 2000 issues, such costs are not sufficiently certain to estimate at this time.
