Notes to Financial Statements
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Basis of Consolidated Financial Statements Presentation
These Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance
with Form 10-QSB specifications and, therefore, do not include all information
and footnotes normally shown in full annual Financial Statements. These
financial statements consolidate, using the purchase method, the accounts of the
company and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Diamonair, Inc. and Aviv, Inc.
All material intercompany accounts have been eliminated. The investment in
NETJEWELS.COM is accounted for based on the equity method.
b) Principal Activities
The company was incorporated in Canada on October 18, 1979. The company is
principally engaged in the production and trading of jewelry in Canada and the
United States of America.
c) Cash and Bank Indebtedness
Cash and bank indebtedness includes cash in bank, amounts due to banks, and any
other highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or
less. The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity
of those instruments.
d) Other Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of the company's accounts receivable approximates fair value
because of the short maturity of these instruments.
e) Long-term Financial Instruments
The fair value of each of the company's long-term financial assets and debt
instruments is based on the amount of future cash flows associated with each
instrument discounted using an estimate of what the company's current borrowing
rate for similar instruments of comparable maturity would be.
f) Inventory
Raw materials and work-in-process are valued at the lower of cost (first-in,
first-out basis) or market.
Finished goods are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is calculated
using selling price less normal gross margin.
g) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are mainly depreciated on
the declining balance basis over their estimated useful lives.
Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line basis over the terms
of the lease.
h) Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of cost over the value of tangible assets acquired on the
acquisition of subsidiary companies. It is being amortized on the straight-line
basis over 40 years.
The valuation and amortization of goodwill is evaluated on an ongoing basis and,
if considered permanently impaired, goodwill is written down. The determination
as to whether there has been an impairment in value is made by comparing the
carrying value of the goodwill to the projected undiscounted net revenue stream
to be generated by the related activity.
i) Sales
Sales represent the invoiced value of goods supplied to customers. Sales are
recognized upon delivery of goods and passage of title to customers.

<PAGE>
j) Foreign Currency Translation
The translation of the Interim Financial Statements from Canadian dollars
("CDN$") into United States dollars is performed for the convenience of the
reader. Balance Sheet accounts are translated using closing exchange rates in
effect at the Balance Sheet date and income and expense accounts are translated
using an average exchange rate prevailing during each reporting period. No
representation is made that the Canadian dollar amounts could have been, or
could be, converted into United States dollars at the rates on the respective
dates and or at any other certain rates. Adjustments resulting from the
translation are included in the cumulative translation adjustments in
stockholders' equity.
k) Use of Estimates
The preparation of Interim Financial Statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the Interim Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
l) Long-Lived Assets
On January 1, 1996, the company adopted the provosions of SFAS No. 121,
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed of SFAS No. 21 requires that long-lived assets to be held and used
by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. Management used its best estimate of the undiscounted cash flows to
evaluate the carrying amount and have determined that no impairment has
occurred.
m) Stock Based Compensation
In December 1995, FAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-based Compensation, was
issued. It introduced the use of a fair value-based method of accounting for
stock-based compensation. It encourages, but does not require, companies to
recognize compensation to employees based on the new fair value accounting
rules. The company chose to continue to account for stock-based compensation
using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related
interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as
the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the company's stock at the
measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock.
n) Concentrations of Credit Risks
The company's receivables are unsecured and are generally due in 90 days.
Currently, the company's customers are primarly local, national and
international users of jewelry products. The company's receivables do not
represent significant concentrations of credit risk as at September 30, 2000,
due to the wide variety of customers, markets and geographic areas to which the
company's products are sold.
o) Net Income and Fully Diluted Net Income Per Weighted Average Common Stock
Net income per common stock is computed by dividing net income for the period by
the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period.
Fully diluted net income per common stock is computed by dividing net income for
the period by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the
period, assuming that all stock options were exercised. Stock warrants have not
been included in the fully diluted net income per common stock calculations as
their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
2. CASH SURRENDER VALUE OF LIFE INSURANCE
5
<PAGE>
The cash surrender value of life insurance represents the value of life
insurance policies of former directors of Aviv, Inc.
3. BANK INDEBTEDNESS
The bank indebtedness bears interest at the bank's prime lending rate plus 3/4%
per annum. As security, the company has provided a general assignment of
accounts receivable, a general security agreement constituting a first charge
over all present and future personal property of the company and an assignment
of key man life insurance of a director payable to the bank. The facility
contains covenants specifying minimum and maximum financial ratios. The
agreement contains restrictions on changes in ownership and line of business, on
further encumbrances of assets and on the guarantees and other contingent
liabilities.
4. LOANS PAYABLE
Loans Payable includes loans from stockholders of $1,844,450 as on September 30,
2000.($1,905,356 as on December 31,1999)

6. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
The company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130
"reporting Comprehensive Income" as of January 1, 1998 which requires new
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components
in the financial statements. However, it does not affect net income or total
stockholders' equity. The components of comprehensive income are as follows:

7. UNUSUAL ITEM
The 1999 amount represents $1, 687, 783 being the net book value of waxes, modes
and models that management decided to write-off. and $321,640 which represents
the value of accounts receivable from the 50% owned NetJewels.com that
management decided to write-off. The prior figures for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1999 have been revised to correct the accounting error of
not writing off the net book value of waxes, models and moulds and a portion of
accounts receivable from the 50% owned NetJewels.com as indicated above.
Consequently, the following 1999 amounts have been revised:
i) Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1999 has decreased from $
236,627 to a Net loss of $ 181,023; consequently, the earnings per common share
and earnings per common share assuming dilution for the three months ended
September 31, 1999 have both decreased from $ 0.04 to a loss of $0.03.
ii) Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 has decreased from $
2,565,391 to $ 906,192; consequently, the earnings per common share and earnings
per common share assuming dilution for the nine months ended September 31, 1999
have decreased from $ 0.43 and $ 0.41 to $0.26 and $0.26 respectively.
The entire 2000 amount represents the value of accounts receivable from the 50%
owned NetJewels.com that the management decided to write-off ($ 884,653) and a
provision for the estimated costs of moving the manufacturing plant from Houston
to the Toronto location ($ 327,418). The Aviv plant was closed effective
November 06, 2000. All the manufacturing was moved to our Toronto plant; the
customer service and repairs functions were kept in Houston, as was our jewelry
store, New York Gold and Diamonds.
8. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding.
Fully diluted income per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of shares calculated using the "treasury stock" method.
9. CHANGE OF NAME
The Company changed the name from "D.G. Jewellery of Canada Ltd." to "D.G.
Jewelry Inc." effective July 29, 1999.
10. CONTINGENCY
The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit arising from an agreement with Haymarket
LLC. On November 16, 2000, the jury rendered a verdict in favor of the Company
which was reversed by the judge who directed a verdict for the plaintiff. The
judge indicated he will put a stay on the obligation to give additional shares
to the plaintiff and the determination of monetary damages pending the appeal of
the Company to the higher court. No provision has been recorded in the accounts
for possible loss. Should any expenditures be incurred by the Company for the
resolution of this lawsuit, they will be charged to the operations of the year
in which such expenditures are incurred.

Three Months September 30, 2000 Compared to the Three Months Ended September
30,1999.
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2000 were $ 8.3 million, or
approximately 20% increase over the third quarter of 1999 revenues of
approximately $7.0 million. This increase is mainly the result of increased
sales to the internet and television customer base.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2000 was $2.9 million which is an increase
of $ 484,482 (19.75%) over the third quarter This9was attributed to the increase
in sales.

564,363 in 1999 to $ 629,543 in 2000 (11.7%). The increase for the three months
is mostly due to the increase in sales.
Administrative expenses of $522,532 for the three months ended September 30,
2000 were approximately 123% higher than the three months ended September 3o,
1999 mainly due to additions to our administrative staff and some computer
related expenses.
The increase in interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2000
as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1999 was approximately
$11,000. The increase was due mainly interest rate fluctuations and an increased
loan level.
The unusual items decreased by approximately $ 90,000 or 12%. The 1999 unusual
items consisted of $ 446,034 of net book value of waxes, models and molds and $
321,640 of accounts receivable from the 50% owned NetJewels.com that the

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30,2000 was $8.8 million which
is an increase of $ 1,111,887 (14.4%) over the same period in 1999. The increase

increased sales. For the period ended September 30, 2000 gross profit increased
from 33.29% in 1999 to 33.85% in 2000.

1,442,061 in 1999 to $ 1,694,837 in 2000 (17.5%). The increase for the nine
months is mostly due to the increase in sales.
Administrative expenses of $1.285,208 for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 were approximately 45.5% higher than the nine months ended September 30,
1999 mainly due to additions to our administrative staff and some computer
related expenses.

The increase in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was approximately $246,000.
The increase was due mainly interest rate fluctuations and an increased loan
level.
The unusual items decreased by approximately $800,000 or 40%. The 1999 unusual
items consisted of $ 1,687,583 of net book value of waxes, models and molds and
$ 321,640 of accounts receivable from the 50% owned NetJewels.com that the
management decided to write-off. The unusual items pertaining to 2000 include $

owned NetJewels.com that management decided to write-off and $ 327,418 allocated
to moving costs of the Houston manufacturing plant to our Toronto location
relating to Aviv Inc.
As a result of the above factors, net income for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1999 increased to $
1,674,242 from $ 906,192 (after unusual item of $ 2,009,223 for 1999.).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The net cash used in operating activities increased by approximately $ 2.4
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 over September 30, 1999.
The principal use of cash was traced mainly to an increase in inventory of $3.4
million.
The cash flow used in investing activities decreased by approximately $ 0.9
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 over September 30, 1999,
which was mainly owing to a decrease in purchases of property, plant and
equipment.
The cash flow from bank financing increased by approximately $ 2.5 million as
compared to the previous period in 1999. The Company repaid approximately $
650,000 less in loans.
The Company did not receive proceeds from the issuance of capital stock for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000, as compared to the proceeds of $ 3,927,330
for the previous period in 1999.
YEAR 2000 BUSINESS SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION
As many computer systems and other equipment with embedded chips or processes
(collectively, "Business Systems") use only two digits to represent the year,
they may be unable to process accurately certain data before, during or after
the year 2000. As a result, business and governmental entities are at risk for
possible miscalculations or systems failures causing disruptions in their
business operations. The company has committed to and is in the process of
implementing a Y2K readiness program, with the objective of having all of their
significant Business Systems, including those that affect facilities and
manufacturing activities, functioning properly, well in advance of January 1,
2000.
