United Community Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
United Community Holdings, Inc. (Company) was incorporated under the corporate
name of Professionalistics, Inc. on May 31, 1989, under the laws of the State of
Delaware, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Halter Venture Corporation, a
publicly-owned corporation. The Company changed its name to Pacific Great China
Co., Ltd. on May 8, 1996 as a result of an action by the Company's Board of
Directors in anticipation of a business acquisition or merger transaction.
Subsequently, this anticipated business acquisition or merger transaction was
mutually canceled by both parties.
On December 17, 1998, the Company changed its state of Incorporation from
Delaware to Nevada by means of a merger with and into a Nevada corporation
formed solely for the purpose of effecting the reincorporation. The Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws of the Nevada corporation are the Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws of the surviving corporation. Such Articles of
Incorporation did not change the capital structure of the Company. The effect of
this action also changed the Company's name to United Community Holdings, Inc.
On November 19, 1998, the Company's then majority shareholder sold 7,200,000
shares of the 7,750,129 shares held by the then majority shareholder to an
unrelated third party in anticipation of a reverse merger transaction whereby
the Company would merge with and into a privately held operating company during
the first quarter of 1999.
On February 28, 1999, effective as of January 1, 1999, the Company exchanged
1,000 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock with its then current
majority shareholder for 100.0% of the issued and outstanding stock of Rosemont
Gardens Funeral Chapel-Cemetery, Inc. (a Mississippi corporation) (Rosemont). At
closing, Rosemont became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company
Rosemont Gardens Funeral Chapel-Cemetery, Inc. (Rosemont) was originally
incorporated on March 4, 1994 under the laws of the State of Mississippi.
Rosemont's operations consist of a funeral home and cemetery operation in
Jackson, Mississippi. Rosemont personnel at the funeral service location provide
all professional services related to funerals, including the use of funeral
facilities and motor vehicles. Funeral related merchandise is sold at the
funeral service location. Rosemont sells prearranged funeral services whereby a
customer contractually agrees to the terms, conditions and price of a funeral to
be performed at an unknown future date at the time the contract is executed.
Rosemont's cemetery provides cemetery interment rights (including mausoleum
crypts and lawn spaces) and certain merchandise including stone and bronze
memorials and burial vaults. These items may be sold on either a pre-need or an
at-need basis. Rosemont personnel at the cemetery site perform interment
services and provide management and maintenance of the cemetery grounds.
The acquisition of Rosemont by the Company was accounted for as a "reverse
acquisition" with the Company being the parent company and Rosemont being a
wholly-owned subsidiary. Due to common control and ownership of the two
corporations, this transaction was accounted for on an "as-if-pooled" basis in
accordance with Interpretation #39 of Accounting Principles Board Opinion #16.
These combined entities are referred to as Company. Accordingly, the combined
financial statements of the Company and Rosemont represent the historical
consolidated financial statements as of the first day of the first period
presented.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation - Continued
During interim periods, the Company follows the accounting policies set forth in
its annual audited financial statements contained as a component of its Form
10-QSB for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The accompanying financial statements do not include all
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Users of
financial information provided for interim periods should refer to the annual
audited financial statements contained as a component of its Form 10-QSB for the
quarter ended March 31, 1999 when reviewing the interim financial results
presented herein.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial statements,
prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-QSB, are unaudited and
contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective interim periods
presented. The current period results of operations are not necessarily
indicative of results which ultimately will be reported for the full fiscal year
ending December 31, 1999.
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.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
1. Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit
and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less,
when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.
Cash overdraft positions may occur from time to time due to the timing of
making bank deposits and releasing checks, in accordance with the Company's
cash management policies.
2. Accounts receivable
In the normal course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to its
at-need customers which are regionally concentrated in and around Jackson,
Mississippi. Because of the credit risk involved, management has provided an
allowance for doubtful accounts which reflects its opinion of amounts which
will eventually become uncollectible. In the event of complete
non-performance, the maximum exposure to the Company is the recorded amount
of trade accounts receivable shown on the balance sheet at the date of
non-performance.
3. Inventory
Inventory consists of funeral merchandise and cemetery property and
merchandise and are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the
first-in, first-out method.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued
4. Property, plant and equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost. These costs are
depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets,
generally four (4) to twenty-five (25) years, using the straight-line method.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense whereas renewals and major
replacements are capitalized. Gains and losses from disposition of property
and equipment are recognized as incurred and are included in operations.
For the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, depreciation expense of
approximately $79,084 and $64,227, respectively, was charged to operations.
5. Funeral operations
Funeral revenue is recognized when the funeral service is performed. The
Company's trade receivables, when recorded, will consist principally of
funeral services already performed. An allowance for doubtful accounts will
be provided based on historical experience. In the event of complete
non-performance, the maximum exposure to the Company is the recorded amount
of trade accounts receivable shown on the balance sheet at the date of
non-performance.
The Company sells prearranged funeral services and funeral merchandise that
provide for the delivery of price guaranteed services and merchandise at
prices prevailing when the agreement is signed. Revenues and related costs
associated with sales of prearranged funeral contracts are deferred and later
recognized when the funeral service is actually performed. Prearranged
funeral services and merchandise are generally financed either through trust
funds or escrow accounts, depending on State Regulatory requirements,
established by the Company or through insurance. Principal amounts deposited
in trust funds or escrow accounts are available to the Company as funeral
services are performed and merchandise is delivered. These amounts may be
refundable to the customer in those situations where state law provides for
the return of those amounts under the purchaser's option to cancel the
contract. Certain jurisdictions provide for non-refundable trust funds or
escrow accounts where the Company receives such amounts upon cancellation by
the customer.
The Company recognizes as revenue on a current basis all dividends and
interest earned, and net capital gains realized, by all prearranged funeral
trust funds or escrow accounts, except in those states where earnings revert
to the customer if a prearranged funeral service or funeral merchandise
contract is canceled. Principal and earnings are withdrawn only as funeral
services and merchandise are delivered or contracts are canceled, except in
jurisdictions that permit earnings to be withdrawn currently and in
unregulated jurisdictions where escrow accounts are used.
Commissions and other related direct marketing costs relating to prearranged
funeral services and prearranged funeral merchandise sales are expensed as
paid, subject to a nominal percentage which is withheld and paid at the time
the service is performed. Other indirect costs, including telemarketing and
advertising costs, are expensed in the period when incurred.
Funeral services sold at the time of need are recorded as funeral revenue in
the period performed.

6. Cemetery operations
Cemetery revenue is accounted for in accordance with the principles
prescribed for accounting for sales of real estate. Those principles require,
among other things, the receipt of a certain portion (generally 25%) of an
installment sale price prior to recognition of any revenue or cost on a
contract. The Company recognizes income currently from unconstructed
mausoleum crypts sold to the extent the Company has available inventory.
Costs related to the sales of cemetery mausoleum or lawn crypts include
property and other costs related to cemetery development activities which are
charged to operations using the specific identification method. Allowances
for customer cancellations are provided at the date of sale based upon
historical experience. Costs related to merchandise are based on actual costs
incurred or estimates of future costs necessary to purchase the merchandise,
including provisions for inflation when required.
Pursuant to applicable state law, all or a portion of the proceeds from each
sale of cemetery merchandise may also be required to be paid into trust funds
until such merchandise is purchased by the Company for the customer. The
Company recognizes realized trust income on these merchandise trusts in
current cemetery revenues as trust earnings accrue to defray inflation costs
recognized related to the unpurchased cemetery merchandise.
Additionally, pursuant to perpetual care contracts and laws, a portion,
generally 15.0%, of the total sales price of cemetery property is deposited
into perpetual care trust funds or escrow accounts. In addition, in those
jurisdictions where trust or escrow arrangements are neither statutorily nor
contractually required, the Company typically on a voluntary basis a portion,
generally 15.0%, of the sale price into escrow accounts. The income from
these funds, which have been established in most jurisdictions in which the
Company operates cemeteries, is used for maintenance of these cemeteries, but
principal, including in some jurisdictions, net realized capital gains, must
generally be held in perpetuity. Accordingly, the trust fund corpus is not
reflected in the financial statements, except for voluntary escrow funds
established by the Company. The Company recognizes and withdraws currently
all dividend and interest income earned and, where permitted, capital gains
realized by perpetual care funds.
A portion of the sales of cemetery property and merchandise is made under
installment contracts bearing interest at 9.75%. Finance charges are
recognized as a component of cemetery revenue under the straight-line method
over the terms of the related installment receivables.
Commissions and other related direct marketing costs relating to cemetery
spaces or mausoleum crypts are expensed as paid, subject to a nominal
percentage which is withheld and paid at the time the related sales contract
service is paid in full. Other indirect costs, including telemarketing and
advertising costs, are expensed in the period when incurred.
7. Organization costs
Costs related to the formation and organization of Rosemont have been
capitalized and are being amortized over a five year period, using the
straight-line method.

United Community Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued
8. Income taxes
The Company filed a separate corporate federal income tax return through
December 31, 1998. Due to the change in control occurring in 1998, the
Company has no net operating loss carryforwards available to offset financial
statement or tax return taxable income in future periods.
Rosemont, with the consent if its former sole shareholder, has elected under
the Internal Revenue Code to be taxed as an "Subchapter S corporation",
through December 31, 1998. In lieu of corporate income taxes, the shareholder
of a "Subchapter S corporation" is taxed directly on the Company's taxable
income. Accordingly, no provision, benefit or liability for income taxes is
included in the accompanying financial statements.
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income
taxes. At June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, the deferred tax asset and
deferred tax liability accounts, as recorded when material to the financial
statements, are entirely the result of temporary differences. Temporary
differences represent differences in the recognition of assets and
liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes, primarily accumulated
depreciation and amortization, allowance for doubtful accounts and vacation
accruals.
As of June 30, 1999, the deferred tax asset related to the Company's six
month 1999 consolidated net operating loss carryforward is fully reserved.
9. Income (Loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss)
by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and common stock
equivalents (primarily outstanding options and warrants). Common stock
equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of the
outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method. The
calculation of fully diluted earnings (loss) per share assumes the dilutive
effect of the exercise of outstanding options and warrants at either the
beginning of the respective period presented or the date of issuance,
whichever is later. As of June 30, 1999 and 1998, the Company had no warrants
and options outstanding which could be deemed to be dilutive.
Note 3 - Trust Funds and Restricted Cash
Pursuant to State law or Company policy, certain portions of contracts related
to the sales of prearranged funeral services and funeral merchandise and
cemetery spaces, mausoleum crypts and related merchandise are deposited into a
common trust for the period ended June 30, 1999 and in separate trusts for the
period ended June 30, 1998 to provide funds for the fulfillment of the
underlying contracts and/or perpetual care of the cemetery property.
The Company recognizes as revenue on a current basis all dividends and interest
earned, and net capital gains realized, by all prearranged funeral trust funds
or escrow accounts, except in those states where earnings revert to the customer
if a prearranged funeral service or funeral merchandise contract is canceled.
The Company recognizes realized trust income on these merchandise trusts in
current cemetery revenues as trust earnings accrue to defray inflation costs
recognized related to the unpurchased cemetery merchandise. The Company
recognizes and withdraws currently all dividend and interest income earned and,
where permitted, capital gains realized by perpetual care funds.

(2) Results of Operations
United Community Holdings, Inc. (Company) was incorporated under the corporate
name of Professionalistics, Inc. on May 31, 1989, under the laws of the State of
Delaware, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Halter Venture Corporation, a
publicly-owned corporation . The Company changed its name to Pacific Great China
Co., Ltd. on May 8, 1996 as a result of an action by the Company's Board of
Directors in anticipation of a business acquisition or merger transaction.
Subsequently, this anticipated business acquisition or merger transaction was
mutually canceled by both parties.
On December 17, 1998, the Company changed its state of Incorporation from
Delaware to Nevada by means of a merger with and into a Nevada corporation
formed solely for the purpose of effecting the reincorporation. The Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws of the Nevada corporation are the Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws of the surviving corporation. Such Articles of
Incorporation did not change the capital structure of the Company. The effect of
this action also changed the Company's name to United Community Holdings, Inc.
On November 19, 1998, the Company's then majority shareholder sold 7,200,000
shares of the 7,750,129 shares held by the then majority shareholder to an
unrelated third party in anticipation of a reverse merger transaction whereby
the Company would merge with and into a privately held operating company during
the first quarter of 1999.
On February 28, 1999, effective as of January 1, 1999, the Company exchanged
1,000 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock with its then current
majority shareholder for 100.0% of the issued and outstanding stock of Rosemont
Gardens Funeral Chapel-Cemetery, Inc. (a Mississippi corporation) (Rosemont). At
closing, Rosemont became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company
Rosemont Gardens Funeral Chapel-Cemetery, Inc. (Rosemont) was originally
incorporated on March 4, 1994 under the laws of the State of Mississippi.
Rosemont's operations consist of a funeral home and cemetery operation in
Jackson, Mississippi. Rosemont personnel at the funeral service location provide
all professional services related to funerals, including the use of funeral
facilities and motor vehicles. Funeral related merchandise is sold at the
funeral service location. Rosemont sells prearranged funeral services whereby a
customer contractually agrees to the terms, conditions and price of a funeral to
be performed at an unknown future date at the time the contract is executed.
Rosemont's cemetery provides cemetery interment rights (including mausoleum
crypts and lawn spaces) and certain merchandise including stone and bronze
memorials and burial vaults. These items may be sold on either a pre-need or an
at-need basis. Rosemont personnel at the cemetery site perform interment
services and provide management and maintenance of the cemetery grounds.
The acquisition of Rosemont by the Company was accounted for as a "reverse
acquisition" with the Company being the parent company and Rosemont being a
wholly-owned subsidiary. Due to common control and ownership of the two
corporations, this transaction was accounted for on an "as-if-pooled" basis in
accordance with Interpretation #39 of Accounting Principles Board Opinion #16.
These combined entities are referred to as Company. Accordingly, the combined
financial statements of the Company and Rosemont represent the historical
consolidated financial statements as of the first day of the first period
presented.

The operations for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 compared to the quarter ended
June 30, 1999 show a continued maturation of the operations of the Company's
Rosemont subsidiary. Recognized revenues for the first six months of 1999 were
approximately $202,000 as compared to approximately $115,000 for the same period
of the preceding year. The Company recognizes revenues upon the provision of
funeral services, sale of funeral, cemetery or related merchandise or upon the
receipt of at least 25% of the initial sales price for cemetery spaces and/or
crypts.
The principal generator of cash to support daily operations is the collection of
contractual receivables for both prearranged funeral services and the sales of
cemetery spaces or crypts. This area continues to experience growth in the
number and dollar amount of contracts placed in effect on a cumulative basis and
the related cash flows therefrom.
The Company continues to monitor its expenditures for general operating
expenses, principally personnel costs and professional fees. The Company had
aggregate general and administrative expenses of approximately $150,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to approximately $251,000 for the
same period of 1998. Interest expense decreased by approximately $19,000 due to
1998 debt restructuring and/or repayment which impacted both the amounts
outstanding and the related interest rates. Depreciation and amortization is
relatively constant based on the completion of the Rosemont visitors center and
related placement into service during the first quarter of 1998.
Earnings per share improved from $(0.05) per share for the first six months of
1998 to approximately $(0.03) per share for the first six months of 1999.
(3) Liquidity and capital resources
The Company is principally dependent upon cash flows related to the collection
of long-term contract receivables related to prearranged funeral contracts and
sales of cemetery spaces and/or crypts. The Company had negative cash flows from
operations of approximately $(160,000) and $(359,000) for the first six months
of 1999 and 1998, respectively. These deficits were supported through advances
on the Company's bank line of credit (discussed in the accompanying historical
financial statements) or through controlling shareholder advances (for 1998).
The Company has virtually completed the development of its initial cemetery
garden, visitors center and other funeral related buildings. The Company is in
the process of constructing Phase II to its Mausoleum and the second and third
cemetery gardens. These efforts are being funded from cash flows generated
through operations. Management is of the opinion that it has sufficient cemetery
spaces and mausoleum crypts to meet current demands and construct additional
capacity within the parameters of existing cash flows.
The Company has identified no significant capital requirements for the current
annual period. Liquidity requirements mandated by future business expansions or
acquisitions, if any are specifically identified or undertaken, are not readily
determinable at this time as no substantive plans have been formulated by
management.
Additionally, management is of the opinion that there is additional potential
availability of incremental mortgage debt and the opportunity for the sale of
additional common stock through either private placements or secondary
offerings.

(3) Year 2000 Considerations
The Year 2000 (Y2K) date change is believed to affect virtually all computers
and organizations. The Company has undertaken a comprehensive review of its
information systems, including personal computers, software and peripheral
devices, and its general communications systems. The Company has no direct
electronic links with any customer or supplier. In addition, the Company has
held discussions with certain of its software suppliers with respect to the Y2K
date change. The Company has completed its detailed review, as a preliminary
assessment and the Company believes, as of the date of this filing, that it will
not be required to modify or replace significant portions of its computer
hardware or software and any such modifications or replacements are, or will be,
readily available. The Company anticipates that it will complete its detailed
review by September 1, 1999 and complete any modifications, upgrades or
replacements during the third quarter of 1999.
The Company is also holding discussions with its significant suppliers,
shippers, customers and other external business partners related to their
readiness for the Y2K date change.
The Company does not expect the costs associated with the Y2K date change
compliance to have a material effect on its financial position or its results of
operations. There can be no assurance until January 1, 2000, however, that all
of the Company's systems, and the systems of its suppliers, shippers, customers
or other external business partners will function adequately.
