NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Pet Quarters, Inc. ("Pet Quarters") and Subsidiary (collectively, the "Company")
was organized under the laws of the state of Arkansas on May 22, 1997, for the
purpose of marketing and selling pet supplies over the Internet. From May 22,
1997 to June 30, 1997, the Company had no operations.
THE COMPANY HAS SOLD COMMON STOCK IN OFFERINGS THAT WERE EXEMPT FROM
REGISTRATION WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ("SEC"). THE COMPANY'S
COMMON STOCK IS CURRENTLY TRADED ON THE OTC BULLETIN BOARD.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated condensed financial
statements included herein have been prepared on a basis consistent with prior
periods reported consolidated financial statements and include all material
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly
present the information set forth therein.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial
statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, although the Company believes that the
disclosures in the unaudited interim financial statements are adequate to ensure
that the information presented is not misleading. The results of operations for
the interim reporting periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of
any future operating results.
The financial information as of June 30, 1999 is derived from the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-SB for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1999 as filed
with the Securities Exchange Commission. The interim financial statements
presented herein should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
the notes thereto included in the Form 10-SB.
CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PQ Acquisition
Company, Inc. ("PQ Acquisition") which was organized in August 1999 for the sole
purpose of acting as an intermediate corporation to acquire Humboldt Industries,
Inc. ("Humboldt") and Maplewood Industries, Inc. ("Maplewood") (collectively,
Humboldt and Maplewood shall be referred to as
6
<PAGE> 7
"Humboldt Industries"). PQ Acquisition currently owns all of the issued and
outstanding shares of stock of Humboldt Industries. All of the stock of PQ
Acquisition is owned by Pet Quarters.
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly
owned subsidiaries beginning August 1, 1999.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost, principally determined by the
first-in, first-out method, or market. Inventory at December 31, 1999 and June
30, 1999, consists of pet supplies purchased for retail sale.
PROPERTY, PLANT, AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
depreciable assets, which range from five years for furniture and equipment to
thirty-nine years for buildings and improvements.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The company records stock based compensation using provisions of Accounting
Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, for the preparation of its basic consolidated financial statements.
Such provisions require the company to recognize compensation cost over the
vesting period for the difference between the quoted market price of an award at
the date of grant and the purchase or exercise price of the shares.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated
lives, ranging from 3 to 5 years.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The Company's services are provided primarily to customers throughout the United
States. The Company receives payment largely by customers' use of credit cards
for internet and catalog sales and, for sales by Humboldt to pet care
professionals and veterinarians, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations
and generally does not require collateral. Historically, credit losses have been
within management's expectations.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue from product sales is recognized upon shipment of merchandise, net of an
allowance for estimated customer returns.
7
<PAGE> 8
IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
The Company accounts for any impairment of its long-lived assets using Statement
of Consolidated Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
Of". Under SFAS No. 121, impairment losses are recognized when information
indicates the carrying amount of long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles and
goodwill related to those assets will not be recovered through future operations
or sale.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
NOTE 2. AVERAGE SHARES OUTSTANDING
The following table sets forth the reconciliation of average shares outstanding
for purposes of calculating Basic and Diluted loss per share for the periods
indicated:

NOTE 3. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company's Board of Directors has given approval to the establishment of a
Management Incentive Plan under which shares of the Company's stock are granted
to employees. The shares are restricted for one year following the date of grant
and require that the employee remain in continuous employment for a period of
one year from the date of grant unless waived by management and approved by the
board of directors.
In the six months ended December 31, 1999, the Company granted stock awards to
employees in the amount of 95,000 shares. The Company has waived the employment
period for two
8
<PAGE> 9
employees in the amount of 150,000 shares issued in a prior period and canceled
10,000 shares previously issued to a terminated employee.
During the six months ended December 31, 1999, the Company granted 200,000
options to a key employee at the fair market value at the date of the grant of
$2.96875. Also, the Company engaged an advisor and granted options to purchase
570,350 shares at the fair market value at the date of grant of $1.00. These
options vest on a monthly basis beginning in December 1999.
NOTE 4. ACQUISITION
On August 1, 1999, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of
Humboldt Industries and Maplewood Industries, for $4.6 million cash and
1,146,417 shares of the Company's common stock, valued at $4.6 million on the
date of the acquisition. Humboldt is in the pet supply catalog business and
distributes two pet catalogs - Home Pet Shop and the Dog's Outfitter - to retail
and wholesale customers throughout the United States and in selected foreign
markets. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction. The
purchase price allocated to assets and liabilities acquired based on preliminary
information and is subject to change. The preliminary allocation of purchase
price results in goodwill in the amount of approximately $8.3 million. Goodwill
is amortized over a five year life. The cash paid was financed through a bridge
loan by borrowing $4.6 million from Sun Valley Trust (the "Trust"). This loan
was due in full on October 1, 1999 with an interest rate of 12.5% (the "Bridge
Loan"). Some of the investors in the Trust are also employees of the Company. In
conjunction with the Bridge Loan transaction, the Company issued 153,334 share
of Common Stock with an estimated value of $651,671 as payment for origination
of the loan. This origination fee was amortized over the term of the loan from
August 1, 1999 through October 1, 1999. In addition, the Company issued 4,334
shares of Common Stock with an estimated value of $18,420 for attorney fees
associated with the Bridge Loan. The common stock of Humboldt and Maplewood is
pledged as security for the Bridge Loan.
On October 2, 1999, the Company went into default on the $4.6 million Bridge
Loan. This Bridge Loan was extended on November 10, 1999 with key changes from
the original agreement as follows: The interest rate was reduced from 12.5% to
10%, interest in the amount of $204,723 was paid current, penalties in the
amount of $230,000 were added to the principal balance (total principal
$4,830,000) and $20,000 in interest payments are due monthly with the remainder
to accrue and be paid upon funding. On November 10, 1999, the Company issued an
additional 275,000 restricted shares to the trust at a value equal to the
average market value of $1.756 or $483,000. The terms of the extension required
a partial principal payment of $1,000,000 by February 10, 2000. This payment was
made on February 3, 2000 as required. The remaining principal balance plus
accrued interest will be due in full on May 10, 2000. In addition, as a
condition to the extension of the Bridge Loan, the Company was required to pay
all accrued but unpaid interest and fees in the amount of $204,723 (the
"Interest Payment").
Shareholders Michael D. Parnell and the Matthew J. Hoff
Trust agreed to loan the Company the money to make the Interest Payment. The
loans to make the Interest Payment are due in full on May 10, 2000, together
with interest at the rate of 10% per annum. Alternatively, Mike Parnell and the
Matthew J. Hoff Trust may elect to convert all or any part of the loans into Pet
Quarters common shares at $.50 per share. On January 27, 2000, Mike Parnell and
the Matthew J. Hoff Trust
9
<PAGE> 10
converted the loans to 409,446 shares of Pet Quarters common stock. The Company
expensed the total amount of the beneficial conversion feature related to the
shareholder loans in the second quarter.
The beneficial conversion feature totaled $626,452. The beneficial
conversion feature was computed based on the difference between the closing
price for the Company's stock on November 10, 1999 of $2.03 and the conversion
price of $.50 multiplied by the number of share received on the conversion.
Components of the troubled debt restructuring cost included in the
operating results for the three months and six months ended December 31, 1999
are as follows:

NOTE 5. OPERATING SEGMENTS
Prior to the purchase of Humboldt Industries effective August 1, 1999, the
Company operated in one segment - internet sales of pet supplies. Beginning
August 1, 1999, the Company began, through the purchase of Humboldt Industries,
a catalog segment. Information on the operating segments for the three months
ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 and for the six months ended December 31, 1999
and 1998 is as follows:

Although the Company sells the same product at the same price to retail
customers through the internet and catalog segments, the means of selling is
different with the internet segment having the potential for a much broader
distribution with far more customers that can be reached through the traditional
catalog distribution. Revenues by geographical location of customer is not
practical to determine.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
The following discussion and analysis contains some forward looking statements
which are based upon the plans, goals, and objectives of the Company and its
management. Such statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties,
including the inability of the Company to secure ongoing financing. This risk is
most important with respect to the May 10, 2000 payment on the loan secured by
the stock of Humboldt and Maplewood ("Bridge Loan"). The Company has additional
loans which are demand loans and could require additional infusions of capital.
The Company's longer term development plans also require additional capital for
completion. Consequently, the reader should consider that such uncertainties,
risks, and may cause actual results to vary materially from those stated plans,
goals, and objectives outlined below. Unless otherwise indicated, this
discussion covers the period beginning on September 30, 1999 and concluding on
December 31, 1999.
Assets: The total assets as of December 31, 1999 were $11,485,791. The Company
had total current assets of $2,454,215. This amount includes $102,498 in cash
and $1,714,180 in inventory.
11
<PAGE> 12
Long-Term Assets include Land, Building and Improvements, Furniture and
Fixtures. The total of these items, net of Accumulated Depreciation of $38,923,
was $1,416,827 at December 31, 1999. The Pet Quarters acquisition of Humboldt
Industries included all business assets except the land and building
(approximately 63,500 square feet). Pet Quarters is currently paying $20,000
monthly to lease the land and building in Hazelton, PA under a five-year
non-cancelable operating lease with the former owners of Humboldt Industries.
Pet Quarters has an option to purchase the Hazelton facility, which consists of
the building and ten (10) acres of land in the Humboldt Industrial Park in
Hazelton, PA, for two million five hundred thousand ($2,500,000) for a term of
five (5) years expiring August 5, 2004.
Goodwill in the amount of $7,615,762 is net of accumulated amortization of
$697,514 as of December 31, 1999. This amount represents the unamortized balance
of the excess paid above the fair market value of the net assets of Humboldt
Industries. This goodwill is being amortized over a period of five years.
Liabilities: The current liabilities include accounts payable, accrued expenses,
notes payable, Bridge Loan payable, current portion of notes and capital leases
payable, and notes payable to related parties. Current liabilities total
$7,978,333 at December 31, 1999. Subsequently, the Bridge Loan payable was
reduced by one million ($1,000,000) in February 2000 as required in the Bridge
Loan extension agreement dated November 10, 1999. The balance of this note is
due May 10, 2000. The long-term liabilities contain that portion of notes and
capital leases with maturities exceeding one year. Total liabilities at December
31, 1999 were $8,219,889.

Company made a $1,000,000 payment on February 3, 2000 thereby extending the
Bridge Loan to May 10, 2000. The Company believes the May 10, 2000 payment will
be made on a timely basis. If the payment is not made, the Sun Valley Trust
could dispose of the collateral after the May 10, 2000 maturity. The Company is

associated with the catalog. This cost increase of 4,477% is consistent with the
increase in sales. Cost of Goods Sold totaled sixty six (66) percent of sales

grants outstanding and the issuance of a convertible note are also included in
