THERMACELL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, which are for
interim periods, do not include all disclosures provided in the annual
consolidated financial statements. These unaudited financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the footnotes thereto
contained in Form 10-KSB for the fiscal period ended September 30, 1998 of
ThermaCell Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments (which are of a normal and recurring nature) necessary
for a fair presentation of the financial statements. The results of operations
for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Note 2 - Basic loss per share calculations
The computation of net earnings (loss) per common share has been based upon the
weighted average number of shares of outstanding common stock, which for the
three month periods ended June 30, 1999 and June 30, 1998 were 8,696,238 and
4,153,620, respectively. The weighted average number of shares outstanding for
the nine month periods ended June 30, 1999 and June 30, 1998 were 7,575,889 and
3,432,484, respectively.
Note 3 - Accounting Change
The Company adopted Statement of Accounting Standards #128, Earnings per Share,
during the quarter ended December 31, 1997. Since the Company has reported a
loss only the basic earnings (loss) per share is thereby reported as the
reporting of diluted loss per share would be anti-dilutive. The inclusion of
converted preferred shares in the calculation of weighted average shares for
diluted earnings per share purposes would be anti-dilutive and per FASB 128,
cannot be included in the financial statements.
Note 4 - Equity Transactions
On June 22, 1999 the Company issued a 9% convertible promissory note in the face
amount of $666,667 for cash consideration of $500,000 before placement fees. The
note's maturity is July 1, 2002, and allows the holder to purchase this
Company's common stock at 105% of the market price at the time of conversion.
On August 6, 1999, the Company's board of directors waived conditions for
conversion of the preferred stock Series A, held by its Chairman and President.
The original number of such preferred shares outstanding was 5,000,000 but was
subsequently changed to 2,500,000 shares in January 1998 to facilitate an equity
funding. The conversion features remained as originally designated and allowed
conversion into 1.25 million shares of the Company's common stock. The Board of
Directors authorized the issuance of common stock in exchange for the retirement
of this preferred stock. Conversion rights for this preferred had originally
been allowed if the company had achieved any one quarter of profitable
operations and any one year of profitable operations. Neither of these
conditions was achieved. The conversion of this series A preferred stock amended
to 2,500,000 in January 1998, allowed the holder to vote 2,500,000 shares on
matters that come before and are voted on by the common stock shareholders. The
retirement of this preferred issue eliminates these voting privileges in the
Company's capital structure.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
In May 1999, the Company and Innovation Associates, Inc.("IA") reached an
agreement and settled litigation that was commenced by IA for trade secrets
misappropriation among other matters. As part of the settlement of this
litigation, the Company has agreed to license certain patents relating to
microspheres that are owned by IA. Consideration for such license is the payment
of $25,000 and the issuance of 470,544 shares of the Company's common stock
having a value of $500,000. This common stock bears a restrictive legend as to
marketability but provides a penalty should this stock not be registered by the
Company within 150 days. If the Company is not able to provide registration of
these shares by November 7, 1999, than an additional payment of $62,500 worth of
common stock is to be made. With this licensing of IA's patents, all litigation
is dismissed. The Company intends to utilize the IA's patents with its own
microsphere technologies to strengthen its patent position in this field.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The statements contained in this Report on Form 10-QSB, that are not purely
historical, are forward-looking information and statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. These include statements regarding the Company's
expectations, intentions, or strategies regarding future matters. All
forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information
available to the Company on the date hereof. It is important to note that the
Company's actual results could differ materially from those projected in such
forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-QSB. The forward-looking
statements contained here-in are based on current expectations that involve
numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve
judgments regarding, among other things, the Company's ability to secure
financing or investment for capital expenditures, future economic and
competitive market conditions, and future business decisions. All these matters
are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which may be
beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes that the
assumptions underlying its forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the
assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that
the forward-looking statements included in this form 10-QSB will prove to be
accurate.
GENERAL
The Company was incorporated in Florida in August 1993, for the purpose of
developing, manufacturing and marketing insulating materials and coatings using
partially evacuated glass microspheres ("shells"). The Company's technology
utilizes the insertion of the shells in various materials and products that
improve the thermal resistive characteristics of such products.
The Company's business strategy is to (i) expand the marketing and distribution
of ThermaCool(TM) paints and coatings, (ii) develop and manufacture the
Company's own shells and (iii) expand the shell technology to other products,
such as drywall, gypsum board, home siding materials, and space foam insulation,
among others.
On November 30, 1995, the Company acquired the assets of C.F. Darling Paint &
Chemicals, Inc., a paint manufacturing company, located in New Port Richey,
Florida. The Company acquired these assets so that it would have a facility to
produce and develop paints and coatings for its ThermaCool(TM) product line.
On March 19, 1997, the Company completed a public offering for 1,375,000 Units,
each Unit consisting of one share of Common Stock, $.0001 par value, and one
Series A Redeemable Common Stock Purchase Warrant, at a price of $4.00 per Unit.
In addition, the underwriter exercised its over-allotment purchase option and
purchased 206,250 additional Units at the initial per Unit public offering price
less the underwriting discounts and commission. The net proceeds from this
offering was more than $4.7 million.
On July 28, 1997, the Company acquired all the outstanding common stock,
representing 100% ownership, of Atlas Chemical Company, a paint manufacturer and
distributor, located in Miami, Florida. The Company acquired this firm so that
it would have a larger manufacturing facility to both expand production of
paints and coatings and to obtain an established marketing distribution channel
which included major retail paint accounts such as Ace Hardware, among others.
On March 2, 1998, the Company acquired the assets of Ladehoff Paints, Inc., a
paint manufacturer and distributor located in Mesa, Arizona. The total purchase
price was $115,000. This acquisition is classified as a purchase transaction.
The Company acquired T-Coast Pavers/Sealco Systems, Inc., which had annual
revenues of about $2 million, on December 1, 1998 for 300,000 shares of common
stock valued at $300,000 and an employment agreement with its founder that
requires an earn-out of an additional 300,000 shares over three years. T-Coast
Pavers/Sealco Systems. provides paver installation and driveway sealant and
coating services primarily to contractors in Southeast Florida.
7
<PAGE>
The Company acquired American Paints, Inc., a Pompano Beach, Florida paint
manufacturer and distributor with $2.5 million in annual revenues, for 572,000
common shares on December 1, 1998. American Paints' production capabilities have
been consolidated into the Company's Atlas manufacturing facility while its
retail operations remain in Pompano Beach.
On January 22, 1999, the Company launched its www.paint-n-stuff.com e-commerce
web site that includes more than 10,000 name brand home, boating, and commercial
building paint, hardware supplies and other improvement items for contractors,
dealers and consumers. This represents the first time such a complete array of
these products has been offered on a internet site.
The Company has sustained significant operating losses since its inception.
Management's strategy of expanding the ThermaCool(TM) product line, developing a
commercially viable manufacturing process for shells and expansion into new
markets for its shell technology may result in the Company incurring additional
losses due to the costs associated with these strategies. The Company expects to
incur losses until it is able to increase its sales, expand its product line,
and increase its distribution capabilities to a sufficient revenue level to
offset ongoing operating and expansion costs.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to three months ended June 30, 1998
Total consolidated revenue for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was
$1,310,625 compared to $789,183 for the same period of 1998, which represents an
increase of $521,442, or 66%. This increase was primarily attributed to the
additional revenues of two recent acquisitions: American Paints and T-Coast
Pavers/Sealco Systems, Inc. ("Sealco"). The revenues for the Company's existing
business declined for this period as compared to the prior period. This decline
resulted from loss of customers because of severe competition within the
Company's Florida markets. The Company has elected to maintain its profit
margins on its business rather than resort to competitive bidding. Management
feels that at this stage in the Company's development this is the more prudent
strategy.
Gross profit margins were 30% and 37%, respectively, for the three month period
ended June 30, 1999, as compared to the prior period ended June 30, 1998. This
decrease is the result of a change in the mix of paint and coatings products
sold by the Company, and in part, by lower contribution margin from the Sealco
acquisition. Sealco has traditionally had gross profit margins in the 16% range.
The Company expects that continued buying efficiencies and supplying all coating
and sealant needed for the Sealco operations are expected to further improve
profit margins. During the recent quarter ended, Sealco's gross profit margin
was 24%.
For the three months ended June 30, 1999, total selling, general and
administrative expenses were $624,738 as compared to $430,055 for the same
period of the previous year, an increase of $194,683, or 45%. This increase is
the result of higher marketing, staffing and other general expenses associated
with both of the Company's acquisitions. The Company has taken steps to reduce
duplication of personnel and has consolidated its staffing, marketing, and
production for more efficient and effective business operation for the American
Paint acquisition. With the expansion of distribution channels provided by the
American Paints, the Company anticipates substantial benefit from the sales of
products to an expanded customer base.
The Company experienced a loss from operations of $237,093 for the three month
period ended June 30, 1999 as compared to a loss of $138,334 for the same prior
year period. This increase in the operating loss over that of the preceding year
period reflects the lower gross margin contribution from the Company's revenues
and the higher S. G & A expense during this period. Management anticipates that
increasing levels of sales, including the contribution of both of the recent
acquisitions, will result in improvement in future operating performances and
eventually profitable operations.
8
<PAGE>
Based upon management's current estimates of future taxable income, management
has determined that a valuation allowance of fifty percent (50%) is appropriate
during the current period ended June 30, 1999 to represent that portion of
deferred taxes that may be realized in future periods.
The interest expense for the period ended June 30, 1999 was $19,430. There was
no interest in the prior years quarter. The interest expense for the current
period was incurred primarily from debenture and vehicle financings. The prior
period benefited from interest income of $15,405. There was no comparable
benefit in the period ended June 30, 1999.
The basic loss, after income tax benefit, and basic loss per share were $205,218
and $0.02 per share respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 1999 as
compared to a basic loss and basic loss per share of $94,849 and $.02
respectively, for the same period in 1998. This loss represents a 116% increase
over the basic loss experienced in the year ago quarter. The loss per share for
the period was same as the loss per share of the year ago period. The weighted
average shares outstanding for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 was 8,696,238 as
compared to 4,153,620 for the preceding year quarter ended June 30, 1998.
The Company has focused, in the recent two quarters on the consolidation of the
acquired American Paint operations with its Miami based production facility.
Presently all paints are manufactured at that Miami location. The company will
aggressively market its paint and coatings products, with the added opportunity
to sell its expanded product line to a greater customer base. Management's
strategy will be to continue to expand within the Sunbelt Region of the United
States. In addition to the Company's marketing efforts, the recent acquisitions
will further the utilization of the Company's paint and coatings production
capacity. Management continues to be optimistic about the benefits of its
near-term strategy.
The Company anticipates improvements in raw material purchasing economies will
result in further cost savings in its purchases for its manufacturing operation.
This benefit will continue in this fiscal year. The Company also anticipates
improvement in gross profit margins during the balance of this fiscal year
resulting from these improved purchasing economies.
Nine months ended June 30, 1999 compared to nine months ended June 30, 1998
Total revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 was $3,250,976 compared to
$2,259,814 for the same period of 1998, which represents an increase of
$991,162, or 44%. The increase was primarily the result of the sales
contribution of the American Paints and T-Coast Pavers/Sealco Systems
acquisitions that more than offset revenue losses in the Company's core business
segment because of competitive factors. Business was lost when management
decided to forgo price concession with customers and instead decided to maintain
its present pricing structure.
Gross profit margins were 30% and 35%, respectively, for the nine-month period
ending June 30, 1999 as compared to the prior period ending June 30, 1998. This
decrease is the result of a change in the mix of paint and coatings products
sold by the Company, and in part, by lower contribution margin from the Sealco
acquisition. Sealco has traditionally had gross profit margins in the 16% range
but that margin has improved to 24% since the acquisition. Sealco's margin is
lower than the margins in the Company's paint business.
For the nine months ended June 30, 1999, total selling, general and
administrative expenses were $1,810,052 as compared to $1,178,124 for the same
period of the previous year, an increase of $631,928, or 54%. This increase is
primarily the result of the Company's recent acquisitions and once the expected
consolidation of operations is completed, S G & A expenses are expected to
become a lower percentage of sales. Management anticipates that further
increases in sales while controlling its S G & A expense levels, will result in
an improvement in its future operating performance.
The Company continued to experience a loss from operations of $833,901 for the
nine month period ending June 30, 1999 as compared to a loss of $382,628 for the
same prior year period.

Based upon management's current estimates of future taxable income, management
has determined that a valuation allowance of fifty percent (50%) is appropriate
during the current period ending June 30, 1999 to represent that portion of

The net loss, after income taxes benefit and net loss per share was $686,692 for
the nine months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to a net loss of $238,354 for
the same period in 1998. This represented an increase in the loss of $448,338
for this period as compared to the year before nine-month period ended June 30,
1998. The basic earnings (loss) per share was $0.09 for the nine months ended
June 30, 1999 as compared to $0.07 on the same basis for the same period in
1998. The diluted earnings (loss) per share are also $0.09 and $0.07 for these
respective periods. This current nine-month period loss per share was higher
even though there is a dilutive effect with more common shares being
outstanding. During these two comparable periods, the weighted average shares
outstanding increased from 3,432,484 to 7,575,889. This increase is attributed
to the Company's convertible preferred stock Series B financing undertaken
during fiscal year 1998, being exchanged into common stock, the issuance of
common stock for two acquisitions, common stock issued for the license of the
Innovative Associates microshell patents and the dilutive effect of outstanding
stock options.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company continues to fund its operations and product development activities
with funds provided by issuing securities and from borrowings. During the nine
months ended, the Company raised $1.25 million, before placement expenses,
through an equity funding and the issuance of two convertible debentures. During
the year, the Company completed conversion of the "Series B" convertible
preferred stock with the issuance of 1,405,000 shares of its common stock. The
Company issued 9% redeemable convertible debentures in two tranches in the face
amount of $1,333,333 for net proceeds of $1,000,000 before placement expenses.
The Company received approximately $801,000 after placement fees, legal fees and
related expenses. Each of these two debentures are for $666,666.67 and have
maturity dates of March 1, 2002 and July 1, 2002, respectively. Furthermore,
each allows conversion into common stock at a 105% of the market price three
days prior to the election to convert. Proceeds from the debentures were used
for working capital purposes.
The issuance of common stock during the nine-month period included the payment
to retire the convertible preferred stock series B and to provide the Company
with $250,000 in additional funding. The Company received a general release from
the preferred stock Series B investor on March 4, 1999. During this fiscal year
the Company had issued 1.4 million shares of its common stock to satisfy this
preferred stock conversion requirement. In addition, the Company's two
acquisitions of American Paint and T-Coast Pavers/ Sealco Systems included the
issuance of a total of 872,000 shares of common stock with 300,000 additional
shares being issued in escrow on an earn-out basis. Common stock was also issued
for license of certain patents of IA Inc. as part of that litigation settlement.
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended June 30, 1999
was $1,415,161 compared to net cash used of $1,074,139 for the nine months ended
June 30, 1998. This increase in cash used by operating activities reflects a
higher net loss for the current period and an increase in prepaid assets were
offset by higher level of accounts payables.
Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 and
1998 were $2,045,336 and $434,528, respectively. The principal use of funds was
for two acquisitions- American Paints and T-Coast/ Sealco Systems completed
during this period and for patent licensing that involved the settlement of the
Innovative Associates litigation. In addition, capital expenditures for the
recent period decreased to $71,160 from $331,188 over the prior year's period.
There was not an acquisition in the year ago period.

<PAGE>
Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 1999
was $3,889,412 as compared to cash used in financing activities of $1,434,224
for the nine months ended June 30, 1998. During the recent period, the Company
issued common stock with an aggregate value of $2,926,554 for acquisitions,
conversion of preferred stock Series B and payment of services to consultants
and employees. For the present period, convertible notes in the amount of
$1,333,333 were issued. These notes bear annual interest of 9% and have a
three-year maturity, but are convertible into the Company's common stock.
Shareholder loans increased during this period that included the assumption of
certain company incurred professional expenses by a shareholder.
As of June 30, 1999, the Company had net working capital of $1,941,448 as
compared to $616,709 at fiscal year ended September 30, 1998. This increase in
net working capital of $1,324,739 is primarily due to higher levels of cash,
accounts receivable including note receivables from customers, and inventories
while this increase was offset, in part, by higher accounts payable level. The
Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.5 at June 30,
1999 and 2.1 at fiscal year ended September 30, 1998.
The Company is not presently profitable and continues to fund itself from the
proceeds of securities placements and debt fundings. Once the Company achieves
profitability, it will then be in a position to fund itself on an operating
basis.
The Company continues to focus its marketing efforts within the Sunbelt Region
of the United States to increase consumer awareness and acceptance of both its
existing and new products. In addition to this marketing effort, the Company has
positioned itself to expand the near term production of its proprietary
products.
Management believes that additional capital will be needed to fund its present
plan to build a manufacturing facility to produce shells for its paint and
coating technology products. The Company is optimistic that such funds will be
available from investment or financing sources to provide for this expansion
plan. Should funds not be readily available, management intends to defer the
building of the manufacturing facility to a later time when appropriate funding
can be arranged. The Company is in need of additional funding to provide for its
working capital requirements over the next six months to supplement the cash
proceeds that can be generated from its recently acquired businesses. Should
such funding not be available, the Company would have to significantly curtail
its planned operations to achieve breakeven operations.
On August 6, 1999, the Company's board of directors waived conditions for
conversion of the preferred stock, "Series A", held by its Chairman and
President. The Company authorized the issuance of 1.25 million shares of common
stock in exchange for the retirement of this preferred stock. Conversion rights
for this preferred had originally been allowed if the company had achieved one
quarter of profitable operations and any one year of profitable operations.
Neither of these conditions was achieved. The conversion of this series A
preferred stock, originally 5,000,000 shares but was amended to 2,500,000 in
January 1998, allowed the holder to vote 2,500,000 shares on matters that come
before and are voted on by the common stock shareholders. The retirement of this
preferred issue eliminates the super-voting rights in the Company's capital
structure. In addition, the Company's board of directors required that within
180 days, the promissory notes in the total amount of $591,389 owed the Company
by its president and chairman be repaid in full. A further consideration in
retiring the Series A preferred stock was the simplification of the Company's
capital structure to attract capital to fund the Company's future needs.
Enclosed in Item 5 attached as Exhibit 99 are the audited financial statements
for the Company's two most recent acquisitions, American Paints Inc. and T-Coast
Pavers/ Sealco Systems Inc., that the Company completed in December of 1998. The
presentation included the operating results had each acquisition been completed
in the earlier fiscal periods. This enclosure completes filing requirements for
the presentation of audited financials for these entities combined with the
Company's historical results.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
In May 1999, the Company and Innovation Associates, Inc. ("IA") reached
agreement and settled litigation that was initiated by IA for trade secrets
misappropriation among other allegations. As part of the settlement of this
litigation, the Company has agreed to license certain patents relating to
microspheres that are owned by IA. The Company paid $25,000 and issued 470,544
shares of its common stock having a value of $500,000 to IA. This common stock
bears a restrictive legend as to marketability but provides a penalty should
this stock not be registered by the Company within 150 days. If the Company is
not able to provide registration of these shares by November 7, 1999, then an
additional payment of $62,500 worth of the Company's common stock is to be made.
With licensing of IA's patents, this litigation is dismissed. The Company
intends to utilize IA's patents with its own microsphere technologies to
strengthen its patent position in this field.
In February 1999, the Company was notified that the Kevin Horrell litigation
against the Company and Mr. John Pidorenko, the Company's president, was
dismissed. A part of this settlement, Mr. Pidorenko, transferred 40,000 shares
of the Company's common stock, he personally owned, to Mr. Horrell. The Company
did not make any payment in settlement of this matter.
On March 1, 1999, the Company reached a settlement agreement with David Feingold
and his law firm of Feingold & Kam, RAM Capital Partners, Ltd., Diversified
Lending Company and RAF Enterprises regarding compensation and the issuance of
the Company's common stock, among other matters. As a result of this settlement,
the Company's obligations to the investor who held a convertible preferred stock
issue was satisfied. Other than the common stock the Company issued in November
1998, no further consideration was paid.
On February 4, 1999, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court,
Middle District of Florida by Mr. Russell Haraburda and Eden Group, Inc. against
John Pidorenko, the Company's president, and the Company for monies purportedly
due for arranging financing for the Company prior to its IPO in March of 1997.
The Company does not believe any monies are due Mr. Haraburda or his firm. In
addition, the Company has been assigned two promissory notes of the Eden Group,
Inc., Mr. Haraburda's firm, that are unpaid. The Company will vigorously defend
itself in this matter and will seek full and complete payment under its
promissory notes from the Eden Group.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE - 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
The Company, wholesales and retails, paint, roofing materials and
related items. Sold goods include purchased products and items
manufactured by the company. The company was incorporated in the
State of Florida on February 15, 1987. On December 1, 1998, the
Company's business and operating were acquired and became a Division
of Thermacell Technologies, Inc. ( a publicly-held company )
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized at the time of sale..
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, the 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.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash in banks, and
any highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or
less at the time of purchase.
The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances at a
financial institution which is insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. In 1998 and 1997 there are no
concentrations of credit risk from uninsured bank balances.
Income Taxes
In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes." Under SFAS No. 109, deferred assets and liabilities
are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying
amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective
basis.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market
<PAGE>
AMERICAN PAINT, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE - 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Deferred assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect
on deferred assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Due to the immaterial effect of any deferred based income tax
provisions, no related tax adjustments have been recognized.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Stockholders
Of Sealco Systems, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Sealco Systems, Inc. (an S
Corporation) as of December 31, 1997, and the related statements of income,
retained earnings, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Sealco Systems, Inc. as of
December 31, 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note K to the financial statements, certain errors resulting in
understatement of previously reported Property and Equipment as of December 31,
1996, were discovered during the subsequent audit of the prior year.
Accordingly, adjustments have been made to correct the error.

SEALCO SYSTEMS INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A - GENERAL
Nature of Business
The Company is engaged in paving roads in residential developments and providing
customized paving work for residences in the Stuart area of Florida. Over 50% of
the company's business is from local developers and builders and the balance of
business is from individual homeowners.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Risk
Amounts on deposit in a financial institution do not exceed the federally
insured limit. The Company grants credit to its customers, primarily located in
the Stuart area of Florida, during the normal course of business. The
concentration of credit risk is limited due to the large number of customers
comprising the Company's customer base but is dependent on the economy of the
construction industry in the area.
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition
The accrual basis of accounting records revenue in the period which earned
rather than when received and records expenses in the period in which incurred
rather than paid. The Company uses the percentage of completion method of
accounting for long term construction type contracts. Using this method,
contract revenues are recognized based on the ratio of contract costs incurred
to total estimated contract costs. Because of the inherent uncertainties in
estimating costs, it is possible that the Company's estimates of costs and
revenues may be revised prior to contract completion.
Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability,
including those arising from final contract settlements may result in revisions
to costs and income and are recognized when the revisions are determined.
<PAGE>
The asset, "Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted
contracts," represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. The
liability, "Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted
contracts," represents billings in excess of revenues recognized.
Operating Cycle
The accompanying financial statements are based upon a one-year operating cycle,
which exceeds the life span of most of the Company's contracts.
Inventory
Inventory of merchandise for resale and materials is stated at the lower of cost
or market method using the first-in, first-out method.
Property and Equipment/Depreciation
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Minor additions and renewals are
expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and
depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is calculated using
straightline and accelerated methods. Total depreciation for the year ended
December 31, 1997 was $7,731.
Income Taxes
The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected to be taxed under
the Internal Revenue Code as an S corporation. In lieu of corporate income
taxes, the stockholders of an S corporation are taxed on their proportionate
share of the Company's taxable income. Therefore, no provision or liability for
federal income taxes has been included in these financial statements.
Accounts Receivable
The allowance for doubtful accounts of $7,000 was based on management's
evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of the year.

The Company is a defendant in two civil actions. The Company intends to resolve
these actions in exchange for services of less than $ 8,000. Since the ultimate
resolution of these matters is not ascertainable at this time and the amount is
not material, no provision has been made in the financial statements related to
these claims.
NOTE K - PRIOR PERIOD ADJUSTMENTS
Certain errors resulting in an understatement of previously reported Property &
Equipment were discovered during the subsequent audit of 1996. Accordingly, an
adjustment of $ 33,688 was made at December 31, 1996 to correct Property &
Equipment as of the beginning of the year. Corresponding entries were made to
