NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002

In the opinion of management of World Services, Inc. (the Company), the accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2002, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001.

These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2001.

NOTE 1 — NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of significant accounting policies is currently on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-KSB.

NOTE 2 — INCOME TAXES

As of December 31, 2001, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards for income tax purposes totaling approximately $657,000 which expire in the years 2003 to 2011. The net operating loss carry forwards may be limited with respect to their availability due to prior ownership changes and the consolidated return regulations.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

Past and Future Operations

World Services, Inc. (“we” or “World Services”) has had no significant operations since 1989. Since 1995, our activities have consisted of maintaining our investment in Super 8 Motel Developers, Inc., a South Dakota Corporation (“Developers”) and complying with applicable administrative and regulatory requirements. Our only earnings since 1995 have been from dividends received from our investment in Developers and interest earned on deposits.

On February 22, 2002, Developers acquired control of World Services pursuant to the terms of a public tender offer commenced on October 3, 2001. Subsequent to the completion of the tender offer, all previous members of the Board of Directors resigned, and designees of Developers were appointed to fill the vacant positions.

As of the date of this filing, our new Board of Directors has not decided upon an appropriate course for World Services to follow, but our Board of Directors may decide upon one of the following alternatives:

1. Dissolution and liquidation. Pursuant to this alternative, we would seek shareholder approval for the liquidation of the company and the distribution of net assets to shareholders on a pro rata basis.

2. Continuation of World Services as a going concern. Pursuant to this alternative, we would seek business opportunities and consider various possibilities of reorganization for World Services with the intention of allowing us to engage in active business operations.

3. Sale or distribution of World Services’ minority interest in Developers. Pursuant to this alternative, we would seek a sale or distribution of World Services’ minority interest in Developers to Developers, an affiliate of Developers, or an unrelated third party. This may require shareholder approval.

4. Declare and pay a dividend of World Services’ cash and cash equivalents on a pro rata basis to all shareholders.

5. Other alternatives not contemplated herein.

Our available working capital and anticipated dividends from Developers should allow us to continue our current business of maintaining our public reporting status and investigating

possible business combinations indefinitely. If World Services acquires a business, however, it is likely that expenses would increase significantly before we would realize any significant revenues from any new business. Nevertheless, we believe that we will have sufficient funds available to meet all our capital obligations in the foreseeable future.

Except for dividends that Developers may pay to us (which cannot be assured), and interest from any funds on deposit, we do not currently anticipate any other income. We anticipate continuing expenditures during the 2002 fiscal year as we continue to comply with our obligations as a reporting company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the South Dakota corporations law. During the quarter ended September 30, 2002, our outstanding shareholder base dropped below 500 shareholders and we became eligible to de-register our shares (providing our total assets do not exceed $10,000,000 on the last day of our most recent three fiscal years prior to the de-registration), thus eliminating our obligation to continue reporting under the 1934 Act, but we must comply with certain requirements of the federal securities laws to do so. The Board has not decided yet whether to de-register our shares.

Liquidity and Capital Resources — September 30, 2002, Compared to December 31, 2001

During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, cash increased approximately $842,000, as a result of redeeming certificates of deposits and current period operations. Interest receivable decreased from $14,795 at December 31, 2001, to $8,373 at September 30, 2002.

Primarily as a result of current period income in excess of expenses, current assets increased by $49,584 from $1,493,494 at December 31, 2001 to $1,543,078 at September 30, 2002.

Current liabilities decreased $6,999 from $51,959 at December 31, 2001, to $44,960 at September 30, 2002. The decrease is the result of the decrease in accounts payable and stock redemption payable.

As a result of the Company’s net income for the nine months of $56,583, the accumulated deficit decreased from $4,357,535 at December 31, 2001 to $4,300,952 at September 30, 2002. As a result, total stockholders equity increased from $2,009,535 at December 31, 2001, to $2,066,118 at September 30, 2002.

In August of 1997, the Company completed a reverse stock split followed by a forward stock split. Following the reverse stock split, there were a number of fractional shares, which were redeemed. Not all of the fractional shares had been submitted for payment by December 31, 2001 or September 30, 2002. As a result, the “current liabilities” portion of the balance sheet reflects a “stock redemption payable.” During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company redeemed outstanding fractional shares with a value of approximately $1,021. The total number of outstanding shares of common stock reflected on the balance sheet does not give any effect to the fractional shares outstanding.

World Services’ most significant asset is its investment in Developers, which is carried at cost on its books. World Services believes that the fair market value of this investment is in

excess of its book value. However, as a result of Developers’ controlling interest in World Services, World Services’ minority ownership in Developers, and World Services’ inability to significantly influence Developers, the ultimate realization of this investment may be subject to conditions outside of World Services’ control.

fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split, all as described in the

company’s proxy statement for the shareholders’ meeting in August of 1997.

Operating expenses (primarily legal, accounting, and administrative costs) increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2002, due to matters associated with the tender offer and related party transactions discussed herein.

Related Party Transactions

The Company pays a monthly administrative fee to Super 8 Motel Developers, Inc. and bookkeeping expenses to a company beneficially owned by Ron Rivett, the Chairman and a significant shareholder of Super 8 Motel Developers, Inc., to cover such costs as office rent, phone, administrative services, accounting services and general office expenses. Payments for these services totaled $5,553 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002

Item 3. Controls and Procedures

As a result of such purchases, Developers owns over 84% of the currently outstanding shares of World Services common stock.
