NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business
-----------------------
Peabodys  Coffee (the  "Company")  owns and operates  retail espresso coffee bar
kiosks  in  a  variety  of  corporate  and  institutional  locations  throughout
California  and Nevada.  The Company  has gained  access to this  segment of the
specialty coffee market by contracting with existing food service providers such
as Sodexho  Marriott,  Aramark,  and The Compass  Group.  The Company's  product
offerings include: high quality coffee and espresso beverages,  fruit smoothies,
pastries, accompaniments, and coffee related accessories.

Estimates and Assumptions
-------------------------
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  at the date of the
financial  statements and the reported  amounts of revenues and expenses  during
the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Basis of Presentation
---------------------
In the opinion of management,  all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature,
which were  considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  of these  financial
statements,  have been included.  It is suggested that these statements are read
in conjunction with the financial  statements and footnotes  thereto included in
the annual  report of the  Company on Form  10-KSB for the year ended  March 31,
2000. The results of operations for the period ended  September 30, 2000 may not
necessarily be indicative of the operating results for the entire fiscal year.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

Property and Equipment
----------------------
Property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Depreciation  and amortization are
primarily  accounted for on the  straight-line  method over the estimated useful
lives  of  the  assets,   generally  ranging  from  five  to  seven  years.  The
amortization  of site  improvements is based on the shorter of the lease term or
the life of the improvement.

Intangible Assets
-----------------
Goodwill  represents  the  excess of  acquisition  costs  over the fair value of
assets acquired.  Amortization is recorded on a straight-line  basis over twenty
years.

It is the Company's policy to evaluate the ongoing profitability of the acquired
assets in order to determine  if any  impairment  of the net goodwill  value has
occurred.

Income Taxes
------------
The Company  accounts  for income  taxes under the  provisions  of  Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 109,  "Accounting  for Income Taxes," which
requires the use of the asset and liability method of computing  deferred income
taxes.

Inventory
---------
Inventories  are  stated at the lower of cost  (first-in,  first-out  method) or
market.

Compensated Absences
--------------------
Employees  of the  Company  are  entitled  to  paid  vacation  depending  on job
classification,  length of service and other  factors.  It is  impracticable  to
estimate the amount of compensation  for future absences,  and  accordingly,  no
liability  has been  recorded  in the  accompanying  financial  statements.  The
Company's policy is to recognize the costs of compensated absences when actually
paid to employees.

Reclassifications
-----------------
Certain  amounts from the  September  30, 1999  financial  statements  have been
reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

NOTE 2 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

A member of the  Company's  Board of  Directors  provided  management  and other
services  to the  Company on various  business  issues.  Fees  accrued  for such
services by the Company during the six months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
were $12,000 and $21,000,  respectively.  At September 30, 2000 and 1999, $0 and
$24,196, respectively, was accrued in accounts payable.

An officer  of  Mine-A-Max  corporation  was  related  to a board  member of the
Company.  Pursuant to the merger agreement, the Mine-A-Max corporate officer was
granted 35,000 stock options at an exercise price of $1.00 per share.

                                    UNAUDITED


NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

These statements are presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern.
Going concern  contemplates  the  realization of assets and the  satisfaction of
liabilities  in the normal course of business over a reasonable  length of time.
The accompanying  financial statements show an operating loss for the six months
ended  September 30, 2000 of $468,805,  and current  liabilities  exceed current
assets by $599,050.  Without an infusion of  additional  capital,  the Company's
ability to continue  operations is doubtful.  No adjustment has been made to the
financial  statements  relating  to the  uncertainty  of  continuing  as a going
concern.

Management's Plan
-----------------
The Board and management  acknowledge  the issues raised as to the future of the
Company.  As such, the Company has recently  eliminated  over $1 million of debt
through a combination of debt forgiveness and conversion of debt to equity,  and
intends  to  further  reduce  debt  via the  same  approach.  The  Company  also
anticipates a reduction in cost of goods sold from a new supply agreement with a
national food and beverage distributor. In addition, the Company has engaged the
services of various  consultants to enhance merger and acquisition  activity and
capital raising efforts. The board and management believe that being a reporting
company  under  the  Securities  Exchange  Act of  1934,  along  with  improving
financial   conditions,   will  help  to  attract   investment   and  to  create
opportunities for the Company.

NOTE 4 - ACQUISITIONS

In June 2000, the Company  purchased certain assets of a coffee roasting company
in Van Nuys, California, an unrelated party. Terms of the agreement specify that
the  ultimate  consideration  paid for the  assets is  contingent  on the seller
meeting  certain  conditions.  The  seller  has  since  been  unable to meet the
required  conditions of the agreement.  The purchase price has been allocated to
the acquired  assets on the basis of their  estimated  fair value on the date of
acquisition.  The ultimate  fair value of the assets  acquired is  summarized as
follows:

     Inventory                                                   $   11,662
     Roasting equipment                                              52,338
                                                                 ----------

                                                                 ==========

In April 1999, the Company  purchased  certain assets of a coffee company in San
Diego,  California,  an unrelated party, for $120,000 and 5,000 shares of common
stock of the  Company.  The  purchase  price has been  allocated to the acquired
assets on the basis of their  estimated  fair value on the date of  acquisition.
The fair value of the assets acquired is summarized as follows:

     Inventory                                                   $    5,125

NOTE 5 - RECAPITALIZATION

On June 30, 1999, Mine-A-Max Corporation,  a public shell corporation,  acquired
88% of the outstanding stock of Peabodys Coffee, Inc., a California  corporation
("Peabodys  California")  at which time  Peabodys  was merged  into  Mine-A Max.
Twelve percent of Peabodys California  shareholders have dissenter rights, which
could be exercised. For accounting purposes the acquisition will be treated as a
recapitalization   of  Peabodys,   with   Peabodys  as  the  acquirer   (reverse
acquisition).  Pro-forma  statements  are not provided given the merger is to be
considered a reverse acquisition and not a business  combination.  Subsequent to
the merger,  Peabodys stockholders own 95.82% of the recapitalized  company. The
pre-merger balance sheet of Mine-A-Max at June 30, 1999 was as follows:

     Cash                                                        $      157

NOTE 8 - BRIDGE NOTE FINANCING (DUE AND PAYABLE ON DECEMBER 31,1998)

In May 1996,  the  Company  issued  "units"  consisting  of secured  convertible
promissory  notes and  warrants to purchase  the  Company's  common  stock.  The
offering  closed August 1996 with $760,000 of notes and warrants  sold.  Through
September 30, 2000 and 1999,  $720,000 and $392,500 of principal  notes had been
converted to common stock, respectively.

In addition, the Company is obligated to make quarterly interest payments on the
principal balance outstanding,  at nine percent (9%) per annum and to repay such
principal  balance in full on December  31,  1998.  Certain  note  holders  have
elected to forgive all accrued  interest  in exchange  for  warrants to purchase
common  stock.  This  transaction  is  discussed  in  detail  in Note 10.  As of
September 30, 2000, the Company is approximately  $24,860 in arrears on interest
payments  relating  to the  remaining  Secured  Notes.  Under  the  terms of the
Security  Agreement  relating to the Secured  Notes, a note holder has the right
to: (a)  declare all  principal  and  interest  immediately  due and owing,  (b)
exercise  its rights and  remedies  under the  California  Commercial  Code as a
secured creditor having a security  interest in the collateral,  which includes,
but is not limited to  equipment,  inventory,  accounts,  trademarks,  and trade
names and  other  intellectual  property  rights  (the  "Collateral"),  and,  in
particular,  sell, any part of the Collateral, and (c) exercise any other rights
or remedies of a secured party under  California  Law. As of September 30, 2000,
the  Company  has not  received  any notice of default  relating  to the Secured
Notes.

NOTE 10 - FORGIVENESS OF DEBT

This income represents the forgiveness of accrued expenses, recorded as expenses
in prior years and in the six months ended September 30, 2000.

In 1995  and  1996 the  Company  issued  interest  bearing  convertible  secured
promissory  notes ("Bridge  Notes").  During the six months ended  September 30,
2000, a Bridge Note holder elected to convert its outstanding  principal balance
into common stock at a  conversion  price of $1.00 per share.  In addition,  the
Bridge Note holder who elected to convert its  outstanding  principal  agreed to
forgive  the  Company  of its  debt  obligations  related  to  accrued  interest
associated  with their Bridge  Note.  In exchange  for the debt  forgiveness  of
$9,266, the Company issued this note holder warrants to purchase 9,266 shares of
the Company's common stock at a price per share of $1.00.

On  September  30,  2000,  the  Company's  legal  counsel  agreed  to  accept  a
nonstatutory  option for the purchase of 150,000 shares of common stock, with an
exercise price of $0.20 per share as full and final settlement for accrued legal
fees totaling $19,370.

A tax  effect  was not  attributed  to the  gain as the  gain  will  reduce  the
Company's prior net operating loss.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS OF  FINANCIAL  CONDITIONS  AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The preparation of this section  requires  management to make estimates and
assumptions about the past, current and future activities,  business  practices,
and  financial  records of the  Company.  Actual  results  may differ from these
estimates and assumptions.

     The Statements of Loss and Accumulated Deficit show a decrease in Sales and
Gross Profit for the six months ended September 30, 2000 over the same period in
fiscal  1999.  The  Company  also shows a  significant  ongoing  increase in the
Accumulated  Deficit for the six months ended  September 30, 2000,  indicating a
poor overall operating performance.

         REVENUES

     Net revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2000 decreased 10.3% to
$946,221  from  $1,054,785  for the same  period  in fiscal  1999.  This was due
primarily to a decrease in the number of operating  kiosks from 28 to 21. Retail
kiosk and cart sales accounted for 100% of revenues for both periods.

          COSTS AND EXPENSES

     Cost of sales for the six months ended  September 30, 2000 decreased  11.8%
to $371,634 from $429,601 for the same period in fiscal 1999. As a percentage of
net  revenues,  cost of sales was 39.3% for the six months ended  September  30,
2000 and 40.7% for the comparable period in fiscal 1999.

     Employee  compensation  and benefits for the six months ended September 30,
2000  decreased to $476,175 from $576,420 for the same period in fiscal 1999. As
a percentage of net revenues,  employee  compensation and benefits  decreased to
50.3% for the six months ended  September 30, 2000 from 54.7% for the comparable
period in fiscal  1999.  The decrease as a percent of net revenues is due to the
restructuring of supervision at the Company's operating sites.

     General and administrative  expenses for the six months ended September 30,
2000  increased to $169,693 from $148,724 for the same period in fiscal 1999. As
a percentage of net revenues,  general and administrative  expenses increased to
17.9% for the six months ended  September 30, 2000 from 14.1% for the comparable
period in fiscal  1999.  The  increase as a percent of net revenues is primarily
due to an increase in training costs  associated  with new unit level  employees
and increased  repairs and maintenance  expenditures  for improving  operational
efficiencies.

     Occupancy  costs for the six months ended  September 30, 2000  decreased to
$141,349  from  $152,472 for the same period in fiscal 1999.  As a percentage of
net  revenues,  occupancy  costs  increased  to 14.9% for the six  months  ended
September 30, 2000 from 14.5% for the comparable period in fiscal 1999.

     Director and professional  fees for the six months ended September 30, 2000
increased  to $194,713  from  $87,748 for the same period in fiscal  1999.  As a
percentage of net revenues,  director and  professional  fees increased to 20.6%
for the six months ended September 30, 2000 from 8.3% for the comparable  period
in fiscal 1999.  The increase as a percentage  of net revenues was primarily due
to the  engagement  of various  consultants  to assist the Company in  obtaining
growth financing and in the penetration of new markets.  The increase is further
due to the accounting  fees incurred  directly  related to the completion of the
audit for the year ended March 31, 2000.  These audit fees were  incurred in the
three months ended December 31, 1999 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999.

30, 2000  increased  to $55,380 from $49,503 for the same period in fiscal 1999.
The  increase  was  primarily  due  to  increased  depreciation  related  to the
acquisition of property and equipment associated with the Northern Lights Coffee
purchase in April 1999,  the South Lake Tahoe  operating  site in May 1999,  and
site improvements at three locations in March 2000.

     Interest  expense for the six months ended  September 30, 2000 decreased to
$6,102 from $41,279 for the same period in fiscal 1999.  As a percentage  of net
revenues,  interest expense decreased to 0.6% for the six months ended September
30, 2000 from 3.9% for the  comparable  period in fiscal 1999.  The decrease was
primarily  due to savings  from the  conversion  of interest  bearing  debt into
shares of common  stock.  $20,000 of debt was converted to common stock in April
2000, $307,500 in December 1999, and $4,500 in April 1999.

     Operating  losses for the six months ended  September 30, 2000 increased to
$468,805  from  $389,683 the same period in fiscal 1999.  As a percentage of net
revenues, operating losses increased to 49.5% for the six months ended September
30, 2000 from 36.9% for the comparable  period in fiscal 1999. The increase as a
percentage of net revenues was  primarily  due to the increases in  professional
fees associated with the engagement of various consultants to assist the Company
in  obtaining  growth  financing  and in the  penetration  of new  markets.  The
increase is further due to  accounting  fees  incurred  directly  related to the
completion of the audit for the year ended March 31, 2000. These audit fees were
incurred in the three months  ended  December 31, 1999 for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 1999.

     Net loss for the six months ended  September 30, 2000 decreased to $428,368
from  $430,962  for the same  period  in fiscal  1999.  As a  percentage  of net
revenues,  net losses  increased to 45.3% for the six months ended September 30,
2000 from 40.9% for the  comparable  period in fiscal  1999.  The  increase  was
primarily due to the increase in consulting  and  professional  fees,  offset by
extraordinary  income  resulting  from debt  forgiveness  of  $9,266 of  accrued
interest payable on notes.

          LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     At September 30, 2000, the Company ended the period with a working  capital
deficit of $599,050.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased $23,446 during the six
months ended September 30, 2000. Cash utilized by operating  activities  totaled
$248,200  during the six months ended  September  30, 2000,  primarily due to an
operating loss of $428,368 offset by a decrease in prepaid expenses of $103,131,
an increase in accounts payable of $58,487 and depreciation  expense incurred of
$55,380.

     Cash utilized for investing  activities for the six months ended  September
30, 2000  included  capital  additions  to  property  and  equipment  of $22,769
primarily  related  to  the  refurbishment  of  existing  operating  units,  and
increases in deposits to suppliers of $10,000.

     The Company had net cash provided  from  financing  activities  for the six
months  ended  September  30,  2000  totaling  $274,848.   Cash  from  financing
activities  primarily  consists of $231,025  from net proceeds  from the sale of
Company stock.  These amounts were utilized in the day-to-day  operations of the
Company.

     Management is currently  attempting to secure  sufficient equity investment
capital to allow the Company to open or acquire 5  additional  operating  units.
Management  anticipates that the addition of these 5 Company operated units will
have a significant  positive impact on the Company's  overall  operating losses.
However,  management  estimates  that the number of Company  operated units will

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

need to grow to at least 40 with comparable or slightly improved  performance to
the  existing  units in order to reach break even with  operational  costs.  The
Company  estimates  that this  growth  to 40 units  will  require  approximately
$500,000 of additional investment capital (in addition to the investment capital
required to address the current working capital deficit) and  approximately  six
months to achieve.  In anticipation of this growth,  and the need for additional
capital,  the Company has engaged  the  services of various  consultants  and is
currently  negotiating with several alternative  sources of capital.  Management
believes  that  one or more of these  sources  may be in place by the end of the
current fiscal year. However,  there can be no assurances that such capital will
be in place.
