NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
August 31, 1997
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Development stage company
Buffalo Capital IV, Ltd. (the "Company") was incorporated under the
laws of the State of Colorado on August 28, 1996. Its office is
located at the office of its President at 7331 South Meadow Court,
Boulder, CO 80301.
The Company is a new enterprise in the development stage as defined
by Statement No. 7 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board and
has not engaged in any business other than organizational efforts. It
has no full-time employees and owns no real property. The Company
intends to operate as a capital market access corporation by registering
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. After this, the Company intends to
seek to acquire one or more existing businesses which have existing
management, through merger or acquisition. Management of the
Company will have virtually unlimited discretion in determining the
business activities in which the Company might engage.
Accounting Method
The Company records income and expenses on the accrual method.
Fiscal year
The Company has selected an May 31 fiscal year end for financial
reporting purposes. For tax reporting purposes, the fiscal year end is
August 31.
Organization costs
Costs to incorporate the Company have been capitalized and will be
amortized over a sixty-month period.
Statement of cash flows
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers
all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity
of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principals requires the Company's
management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the
amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
As of August 31, 1997, 135,000 shares of the Company's no par value
common stock had been issued, along with 4,830,000 Class A warrants
and 2,415,000 Class B warrants entitling the holder to purchase one
share of stock for $2.00 and $4.00 respectively. Of these shares,
120,000 were subscribed for services rendered in the capacity of
directors and consultants. The remaining 15,000 shares were issued
for cash at a price of $.50.
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company's directors and officers are also the principal
shareholders. Each has received 30,000 shares of stock (22% each of
the outstanding shares) in consideration of services provided. The
total value of services provided by officers, directors and shareholders,
for which shares were issued, was $60,000.
The Company's general and securities counsel, Gary S. Joiner, a
partner in the law firm of Frascona, Joiner & Goodman, P.C., is one
of the Company's principal shareholders. Since inception, the
Company has paid $2,500 for legal services rendered, $300 of which
was capitalized as organizational costs, with $0 payable at August 31,
1997.
The President of the Company is providing office space at no charge
to the Company. For purposes of the financial statements, the
Company is accruing $50 per month as additional paid-in capital for
this use.
4. SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE OF NON-CASH
FINANCING ACTIVITIES.
As mentioned in Note 3, the Company has incurred $600 since
inception in rent expense which has been designated as paid-in capital.
Similarly, the Company recorded amortization of the organization costs
of $60.
5. INCOME TAXES
The Company has Federal net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $65,290 expiring in the year 2012. The tax benefit of
these net operating losses, which totals approximately $12,405, has
been offset by a full allowance for realization. This carryforward may
be limited upon the consummation of a business combination under
IRC Section 381.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR
PLAN OF OPERATION
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
The Company remains in the development stage, and since inception,
has experienced no significant change in liquidity or capital resources
or stockholders' equity other than the receipt of net proceeds in the
amount of $7,500 from its inside capitalization funds. Consequently,
the Company's balance sheet for the period of August 31, 1997,
reflects a current asset value of $3,572 and a total asset value of
$3,812.
The Company will carry out its plan of business to seek out and take
advantage of business opportunities that may have potential for profit,
and acquire such businesses, or a controlling interest therein. The
Company cannot predict to what extent its liquidity and capital
resources will be diminished prior to the consummation of a business
combination or whether its capital will be further depleted by the
operating losses (if any) of the business entity which the Company
may eventually acquire.
Results of Operations.
During the period from August 28, 1996 (inception) through August
31, 1997, the Company has engaged in no significant operations other
than the acquisition of capital and registering its securities under the
Securities and exchange Act of 1934, as amended. No revenues were
received by the Company during this period. The Company has
experienced a net loss of $65,288 since inception. This loss is
primarily the result of legal and accounting costs of compliance with
the reporting requirements of the securities laws and issuance of stock
to the Company's officers and directors and other non-management
principal shareholders for consulting services related to organization of
the Company and development of its business plan.
For the current fiscal year, the Company anticipates an increased net
loss owing to expenses associated with locating and evaluating
acquisition candidates. The Company anticipates that until a business
combination is completed with an acquisition candidate, it will not
generate revenues, and may continue to operate at a loss after
completing a business combination, depending upon the performance
of the acquired business.
Irrespective of whether the Company's cash assets prove to be
inadequate to meet the Company's operational needs, the Company
might seek to compensate providers of services by issuance of stock in
lieu of cash.
Need for Additional Financing.
The Company believes that its existing capital will be sufficient to
meet the Company's cash needs, including the costs of compliance
with the continuing reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, until the Company shall have completed a
business combination.
There is no assurance, however, that the available funds will ultimately
prove to be adequate for the Company's operations. No other
commitments to provide funds have been made by management or
other stockholders. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any
other loans will be made to the Company or that other funds will
prove to be available to cover the Company's expenses.
