SURE TRACE SECURITY CORPORATION

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003

(Unaudited)

(Expressed in U.S. dollars)



1.

Presentation of Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

 

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnotes normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results, which may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2004.  This Form 10-QSB should be read in conjunction with our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2003 on the Form 10-KSB on April 15, 2004. The consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared following the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the audited consolidated sta tements for the year ended December 31, 2003.


These consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries Sure Trace Security Inc. and I.D.Ology Laboratories Inc. All Significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

2.

Operations and going concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations. The Company has incurred significant operating losses over the last two years, has a working capital deficiency of $1,686,228, a stockholders’ deficiency of $1,587,760 and has yet to secure significant sales.  The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon its ability to continue to raise capital and achieve profitable operations.  It is management’s intention to continue to pursue market acceptance for its product and identify alternate equity funding sources until such time that there is sufficient operating cash flow to fund operating requirements.

 

The Company has raised and management feels will continue to raise sufficient capital on a monthly basis to fund the Company’s operating requirements.  There can be no assurance that such capital will be successfully obtained.  Should the Company not be able to raise sufficient capital, it will need to reduce expenses and/or curtail operations accordingly.

 

The Company has entered into agreements for a bridge financing in the amount of $350,000 in the form of convertible debenture securities and an equity financing in the amount of up to $8,000,000. If such agreements are performed as contemplated, the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its operational needs for the next (12) months. (see Note 9)

 


F-5


On June 1, 2004, the Company announced the acquisition of Globe Staff Consulting (“GSC”) a privately owned French Company. This acquisition is based on an agreement in principle to purchase, and is not yet structured due to intricacies of international tax issues. Consequently these statements do not reflect the results of GSC. While the principal of GSC has joined the board of the Company, due to the complexity of tax issues, international accounting standards and the conversion to US


2.        Operations and going concern (continued)

GAAP, final terms are not expected to close until the third quarter ending, September 30, 2004. General terms include cash and equity components to close concurrent with the expected financing with Cornell Capital, LP.

If the going concern assumption were not appropriate for these financial statements, no material adjustments would be necessary in the carrying values of assets and liabilities as the book value currently reflects liquidation value. The reported revenues and expenses would require no adjustments and all balance sheet long-term classifications would be reclassified to current

 

3.        Significant Accounting Policies

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of interest receivable and note receivable, the balances of which are stated on the balance sheet. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its debtors and maintains allowances for possible losses with, when realized, have been within the range of management’s expectations.   The Company places its cash in high credit quality financial institutions.  The Company does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk.

Due to related parties

 

In the ordinary course of business, a related company with common officers provided the Company with $36,975 of consulting services during the year ended December 31, 2003.  A balance of $33,691 remains outstanding as of June 30, 2004.

6.

Capital Stock

 

During the quarter, 12,987,424 common shares were issued for services provided to the Company. The number of shares issued for services were based on the current market price of the Class A Common Stock of the Company at the time the services were provided and totalled $1,251,718. Also, during the quarter 3,015,476 common shares were issued as a result of the exercising of stock options.  The Company received $175,000 when these options were exercised.



7.

Stock option plans

 

Under the Company’s 2003 Special Stock Option Plan 33,000,000 options were made available to be issued to certain consultants in exchange for services.  These options are granted and exercised at the time such services are deemed to be performed at the discretion of the Board of Directors. For all options granted under this plan the exercise price equals fifty percent of the preceding thirty day low.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2004, 3,015,476 options were granted and immediately exercised; leaving 3,184,136 options available for granting. During quarter ended June 30, 2004 the Company recorded $111,000 of consulting expense relating to the granting of options under this plan.

Convertible Debenture

 

The Company issued in May 2004 to Cornell Capital LP, (the “Investor”) $150,000 of convertible debentures that are convertible into shares of common stock at a discounted market price.  The convertible debentures are secured by all of Company’s assets, interest bearing at 5% per annum and matured two years from the date of issuance.  The Company has the right to redeem the debenture upon 30 days notice for 120% of the amount plus accrued interest.   

 

Upon the issuance of the notes, the net proceeds of  $150,000 received were allocated between the liability and equity components of the notes.  The liability component of $136,983 represents the present value of the notes discounted using the interest rate that would have been applicable to non-convertible debt.  The equity component of $13,017 represents the residual value of proceeds after allocated to the liability component.  Over the terms of the notes, the liability and the interest components are accreted to their face value.  As at June 30, 2004, the convertible debenture was $138,525.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Plan of Operation


At present, based on current operations, the Company does not have sufficient cash and liquid assets to satisfy its cash requirements on a monthly basis.  The Company will expend approximately $2,000,000 to meets its operational needs for the next twelve months and to meet its plans for growth.  See “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Liquidity” below in this Item 2. While the Company does generate income from the operations of its wholly owned subsidiary, I.D.ology, these proceeds are not sufficient to meet the Company's current monthly overhead.


The Company's operational plans call for the expenditure of approximately $2,000,000 over the next twelve months on ongoing sales and marketing, and technical support, including salaries paid to employees and contractors/consultants.  The Company does not intend to participate in any further research and development.  Any research and development work that will be undertaken will be done on a cost recovery basis from the Company’s clients.


Effective March 29, 2004 Mr. Peter Leeuwerke resigned as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors.  Mr. Kjell Sudenius was appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Company as of April 1, 2004 and was also appointed to the Board of Directors.  Mrs. A. Caroline Banks resigned as Chief Financial Officer of the Company as of May 5, 2004. Mr. Cameron Moriarty replaced Mr. Glenn Boyd as Chief Operating Officer effective April 1, 2004.


The Company anticipates that its subsidiary, I.D.ology, will hire additional employees during the upcoming twelve months. I.D.ology intends to substantially expand its business by establishing a team of employed professional sales executives throughout North America with a view to developing sales and sales agencies globally.  If the Company is not successful in its financing plans as described above, it will not be able to hire these employees.


Results of Operations


Comparison of quarters ended June 30, 2004 and 2003


For the three month period ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 Sure Trace incurred net losses of $1,749,792 and $726,059 respectively.


For the three month period ended June 30, 2004 the Company’s losses increased significantly as compared to the previous year as a result of an increase primarily in consulting fees of  $1,325,918, which was common stock issued for services and recorded at the closing market price of day of issuance. The Company's total operating expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 were $1,750,281 compared to total operating expenses of $726,059 for the same period from the previous year. These increased costs occurred primarily are as a result of Corporate finance fees related to the equity standby agreement with Cornell Capital, LLP and bonus amounts paid out in common stock and recorded as consultant fees.  The Company has entered into agreements for a bridge financing in the amount of $350,000 in the form of convertible debenture securities and an equity financing in the amount of up to $8,000,000, that the corpora te finance fees relate to.  If such agreements are performed as contemplated, the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its operational needs for the next (12) months.





3


Additionally the Company expects wages and benefits, professional fees, travel, sales and marketing expenses, consulting fees and administrative expenses incurred during the current fiscal year to be substantially increased over figures reported for comparative periods as a result of the continuing operations of


I.D.ology and the ongoing costs which may be required by the parent to source additional financing.


Gross profits to offset operating expenses from the comparative periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 increased slightly to $10,407 from $7,512.  This change is not considered material.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Summary of Working Capital and Stockholders' Equity


As of June 30, 2004, Sure Trace had negative working capital of ($1,686,228) and Stockholders' Deficiency of ($1,587,760) compared with negative working capital of ($1,135,230) and Stockholders' Deficiency of ($260,397) as of June 30, 2003.  


The increase in Stockholders' Deficiency at June 30, 2004, as compared to the figures reported for the same period ending June 30, 2003 is primarily due to the capital raised from the exercise of stock options and common stock issued for services which has more than offset the loss from operations.  As of June 30, 2004, the Company also had net capital assets of $65,468, cash of $86,422, accounts receivable of $58,176 and prepaid deposits of $1,805, compared to assets as at June 30, 2003 of $13,732.   Current liabilities increased to $1,830,824 as compared to current liabilities of $1,148,962 at June 30, 2003.  The Company's accrued liabilities increased to $626,090 as of June 30, 2004 from $295,491 as of June 30, 2003.  This increase is attributed to the operations of the Company's subsidiary I.D.ology and the costs incurred by the parent as they continue to seek out additional sources of funding. < /P>


Liquidity


To the date of this report the Company has been successful in raising funds required to meet our existing shortfall for the funding of our operations.  Funds have been raised through private loans and equity financing.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2004, $458,936 of cash was used in operations.  The Company anticipates revenues generated from the business of I.D.ology to cover the Company’s operating expenses on an accrual basis commencing in August 2004 and on a cash flow basis commencing October 2004.  The realization of such revenues will reduce the requirement for additional funding to cover expenses associated with the Company’s operations but will not be sufficient to expand the Company’s operations.  Moreover, we cannot be certain the Company will be successful in achieving revenues from those operations.  Furthermore, we cannot be certain that we will be able to raise any additional capital to fund our ongoing operations.


The Company has received written confirmation from Cornell Capital Partners, LP that they will provide the Company with $350,000 in convertible securities financing.  Cornell Capital has also provided a firm commitment to the Company for up to $8,000,000 in equity financing.  All of which is subject to definitive documentation and registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Sources of Working Capital


The majority of the Company's financing activities subsequent to June 30, 2004 have been by way of private investor's loans and subscriptions for shares of the Company's common stock.  

During the quarter ended June 30, 2004, Sure Trace's primary sources of working capital are a result of 3,015,476 stock options being exercised.  A total of $175,000 was realized from such issuances.  These proceeds were allocated to ongoing operations of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, I.D.ology and Sure Trace Security Inc.

Sure Trace has been identifying and reviewing potential acquisition candidates.  On June 1, 2004, the Company announced the acquisition of Globe Staff Consulting (“GSC”) a privately owned French Company. These statements do not reflect the results of GSC. While the principal of GSC has joined the board of the Company and agreements have been executed, due to the complexity of international accounting standards and the conversion to US GAAP, this acquisition is not expected to close until the third quarter ending September 30, 2004.


The Company currently has no material commitments for capital expenditures.


Off Balance Sheet Arrangements


The Company does not currently utilize any off balance sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities to enhance liquidity and capital resource positions or for any other purpose.  Any future transactions involving off balance sheet arrangements will be scrutinized and disclosed by the Company’s management ITEM 3. Controls and Procedures


As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2004, being the date of our most recently completed fiscal quarter.  This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Kjell Sudenius, and our Chairman Mr. James Mackay.  Based upon this evaluation, Mr. Sudenius concluded that our internal control over financial reporting are effective in timely alerting management to material information relating to us required to be included in our periodic SEC filings.  There have been no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors that have materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.


Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


During our most recently completed fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2004, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


The term “internal control over financial reporting” is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the registrant's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons




5


performing similar functions, and effected by the registrant's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES

During the quarter ended June 30, 2004, we issued a total of 462,548 shares to three investors located in Canada, at an average price of $0.1408 per share for gross proceeds of $65,000.  These securities were issued to non-U.S. persons outside the United States.

Each of the foregoing issuances of securities was exempt from registration due to the exemption found in Regulation S promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933. These sales were offshore transactions since all of the offerees were not in the United States and the purchasers were outside the United States at the time of the purchase. Moreover, there were no directed selling efforts of any kind made in the Untied States neither by us nor by any affiliate or any person acting on our behalf in connection with any of these offerings. All offering materials and documents used in connection with the offers and sales of the securities included statements to the effect that the securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons unless the securities are registered under the A ct or an exemption therefrom is available and that no hedging transactions involving those securities may not be conducted unless in compliance with the Act. Each purchaser under Regulation S certified that it is not a U.S. person and is not acquiring the securities for the account or benefit of any U.S. person and agreed to resell such securities only in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S, pursuant to registration under the Act or pursuant to an available exemption from registration. The shares sold are restricted securities and the certificates representing these shares have been affixed with a standard restrictive legend, which states that the securities cannot be sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or an exemption therefrom and we are required to refuse to register any transfer that does not comply with such requirements.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2004, we received subscriptions for a total of 6,408,257 restricted shares from five investors located in the United States, at an average price of $0.082 per




6


share for gross proceeds of $524,998.  As of June 30, 2004, 3,908,257 of such shares had been issued.  

Each of the foregoing share purchases was exempt from registration due to the exemption found in Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933. The Company paid no commissions or finders fees in connection with this offering. Neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf offered or sold these securities by any form of general solicitation or general advertising. The shares sold are restricted securities and the certificates representing these shares have been affixed with a standard restrictive legend, which states that the securities cannot be sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or an exemption therefrom. Each purchaser represented to the Company that he was purchasing the securities for his own account and not for the account of any other persons. Each purchaser was provided with written disclosure that the securities have not be en registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and therefore cannot be sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or an exemption therefrom.
