NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
------------------------------------------
(Amounts in thousands, except number of shares,
per share data and unless otherwise stated)
1. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
-------------------------------------
Physical Spa & Fitness Inc. ("the Company") a Delaware Corporation, acquired
Physical Beauty & Fitness Holdings Limited ("Physical Holdings") and Physical
Holdings' subsidiaries in October of 1996, issuing 8,000,000 shares (80% of the
Company's outstanding shares) to the shareholder of Physical Holdings ("the
Shareholder"). Physical Holdings and its subsidiaries operate fitness and beauty
centres in Hong Kong and the Peoples Republic of China ("PRC") and other related
businesses.
Physical Holdings was incorporated on March 8, 1996 under the laws of the
British Virgin Islands ("BVI") with a capital of one common share being held by
the Shareholder.
As part of the above transaction, certain shareholders of the Company also
transferred 990,000 common shares to Goodchild Investments Limited
("Goodchild"). Accordingly, the Shareholder and Goodchild became the major
shareholders of the Company. In February, 1998, Goodchild sold all its common
shares of the Company in a private transaction to a Japanese institutional
investor.
On November 27, 1996, the Company changed its name to Physical Spa & Fitness,
Inc.
The transfer of the Shareholder's interests in Physical Holdings and the
Operating Subsidiaries was a reorganization of companies under common control
and has been accounted for effectively as a pooling of interests, and the
consolidated financial statements of the Company have been presented as if the
Operating Subsidiaries had been owned by the Company since their date of
incorporation or acquisition by the Shareholder whichever is later.
The details of Physical Holdings and the Operating Subsidiaries and their
principal activities as of the date of this report are summarized below:

Regent was originally 67% owned by Physical HK upon its incorporation. In June,
1995, Physical HK increased its equity interest to 83.5% by acquiring additional
shares issued by Regent at the par value of the shares. In June, 1996, 5% of the
equity interest of Regent owned by a minority shareholder was acquired by the
Shareholder. All the shares owned by Physical HK and the Shareholder were then
transferred to Physical Holdings at the original cost of their investment to
Physical HK and the Shareholder. In January 1998 Physical Holdings increased its
equity interest to 92.5% by acquiring additional shares owned by a minority
shareholder.

1. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES (Cont'd)

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
---------------------
The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America .
This basis of accounting differs from that used in the statutory financial
statements of the BVI and Hong Kong Operating Subsidiaries and the PRC joint
ventures, which were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in Hong Kong and the accounting principles and the relevant financial
regulations applicable to enterprises with foreign investments as established by
the Ministry of Finance of China respectively.
<PAGE>
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
------------------------------------------
a. Basis of Consolidation
----------------------
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements
of the Company, its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries and
joint ventures. All material intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated on consolidation.
b. Revenue & Deferred Income
-------------------------
Revenue represents membership fees and service income in connection
with the provision of physical fitness and beauty treatment services
and other related income, net of the related sales tax, if any. Annual
membership fees and service income and other related income are
recognized when services are rendered. During 1996, the Company changed
its membership policy so that the annual membership fee was replaced by
a non-refundable membership admission fee and monthly dues. The
admission fee is recognized as revenue on a pro-rata basis over the
estimated membership term whereas the monthly dues are recognized as
revenue on a monthly basis.
Deferred income represents membership fees, admission fees and service
fees billed but for which the related services, or portion of the
services, have not yet been rendered.
c. Property, Plant and Equipment
-----------------------------
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is computed
using the straight line method over the assets' estimated useful lives.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Leasehold land held under long-term lease Over the lease term
Buildings 20 to 50 years Leasehold improvements Over the lease
term Machinery and equipment 5 to 10 years Furniture and fixtures
5 years Computers 4 to 5 years Motor vehicles 4 to 5 years
The Group recognizes an impairment loss on a fixed asset when evidence,
such as the sum of expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without
interest charges), indicates that future operations will not produce
sufficient revenue to cover the related future costs, including
depreciation, and when the carrying amount of asset cannot be realized
through sale. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the fair
value of the assets.
<PAGE>
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont'd)
------------------------------------------
d. Taxation: Income Taxes
----------------------
No provision for withholding or U.S. federal income taxes or tax
benefits on the undistributed earnings and/or losses of the Company and
its Operating Subsidiaries has been provided as the earnings of the
Operating Subsidiaries, in the opinion of the management, will be
reinvested indefinitely.
Provision for income and other related taxes have been provided in
accordance with the tax rates and laws in effect in the various
countries of operations.
The Group provides for deferred income taxes using the liability
method, by which deferred income taxes are recognized for all
significant temporary differences between the tax and financial
statement bases of assets and liabilities. The tax consequences of
those differences are classified as current or non-current based upon
the classification of the related assets or liabilities in the
financial statements. A valuation allowance is provided for the portion
of deferred tax assets that is not currently realizable, since the
realization of these benefits depends upon the ability of the relevant
entity to generate income in future years.
e. Foreign Currency Translation
----------------------------
The Company and its subsidiaries maintain their accounting books and
records in Hong Kong Dollars HK$, except for the PRC Joint Ventures
which maintain their accounting books and records in Renminbi. Foreign
currency transactions during the year are translated in HK$ at rates of
exchange prevailing at the time of the transactions. Monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end are
translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet
date. Non-monetary asets and liabilities are translated at the rates of
exchange prevailing at the time the asset or liabilty ws acquired.
Exchange gains or losses are recorded in the consolidated statements of
income.
On consolidation, the financial statements of the PRC Joint Ventures
are translated into HK$ using the closing rate method, whereby the
balance sheet items are translated into HK$ using the unified exchange
rates at the respective balance sheet dates. The share capital and
retained earnings are translated at historical unified exchange rates
prevailing at the time of the transactions while income and expense
items are translated at the average unified exchange rates for the
years. The resultant translation differences are recorded in the
consolidated balance sheets as cumulative translation adjustments which
are included as a separate account in shareholders' equity in the
accompanying balance sheets.
<PAGE>
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont'd)
------------------------------------------
f. Finance Leases
--------------
Leases that substantially transfer to the Group all the rewards and
risks of ownership of assets, other than legal title, are accounted for
as finance leases.
Fixed assets held under finance leases are initially recorded at the
present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the
leases, with equivalent liabilities categorized as appropriate under
current or non-current liabilities.
Finance charges, which represent the difference between the minimum
lease payments at the inception of the leases and the fair value of the
assets acquired, are allocated to accounting periods over the period of
the relevant leases so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge
on the outstanding balances.
g. Operating Leases
----------------
Leases where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of
assets remain with the lessors are accounted for as operating leases.
Rental payments under operating leases are expensed as incurred.
h. Related companies
-----------------
A related company is a company in which one or more of the directors or
shareholders of the Company have direct or indirect beneficial
interests.
i. Deferred liabilities
--------------------
Deferred liabilities represent the benefit arose from the rent-free
period of the operating leases. The deferred liabilities are amortized
within the lease term, and the amortization is recorded in the
statement of income.
4. SHORT-TERM BANK LOANS
---------------------
The short-term bank loans are secured and repayable within one year.
5. LONG-TERM BANK LOANS
--------------------
Long-term bank loans bear interest at 10% p.a. on the outstanding balances.
As of December 31, 1998, the Group had various banking facilities available from
financial institutions. These facilities were secured by:
(i) leasehold property in Hong Kong owned by Evergrowth;
(ii) leasehold property in Hong Kong owned by relatives of the Principal
Shareholders;
(iii) leasehold property in Hong Kong owned by a related company; and
(iv) personal guarantees from the Principal Shareholders and their relatives;
and
<PAGE>
6. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
--------------------------
Hong Kong profits tax was provided at 16% on the assessable profits of Hong Kong
subsidiaries.
Enterprise income tax was provided at 33% on the assessable income of the
Shanghai and Dalian JVs in accordance with the relevant tax regulations of the
PRC.
The other BVI and Hong Kong Operating Subsidiaries, except Physical HK, did not
provide for any income taxes during the years as they did not have any
assessable income.
The tax impact of temporary differences between financial and taxable income
that give rise to deferred tax (assets) liabilities are related to the
accelerated depreciation allowances on fixed assets in Hong Kong.
7. DISTRIBUTION OF PROFIT
----------------------
In the opinion of management, any undistributed earnings of Physical Holdings
and the Operating Subsidiaries will be reinvested indefinitely.
8. STOCK OPTION PLAN
-----------------
The Company has a Stock Option Plan which was adopted by the Company's
stockholders and its Board of Directors on April 23, 1997. Under the Plan, the
Company may issue incentive stock options, non-qualified options, restricted
stock grants, and stock appreciation rights to selected directors, officers,
advisors and employees of the Company. A total of 500,000 shares of Common Stock

Overview of Company's Business:
The Company, through its predecessor companies and its subsidiaries,
has been an established commercial operator of fitness and spa centers in Hong
Kong and China since 1986. The Company currently operates eleven facilities: six
in Hong Kong and three in China. Management believes that the Company is one of
the top providers of fitness facilities and spa and beauty treatment services in
Hong Kong and China, with approximately 55,000 members. The Company offers to
its customers, at each location, access to a wide range of U.S.- styled fitness
and spa services.
The Company was incorporated on September 21, 1988 in the state of
Delaware under the name of "Foreclosed Realty Exchange, Inc", a development
stage company seeking acquisitions with no material assets or liabilities. Prior
to acquisition of Physical Beauty & Fitness Holdings Limited, a British Virgin
Islands corporation ("Physical Limited"), the Company had no revenue producing
operations, but planned to enter into joint ventures and/or acquisitions
originally in the area of real estate, to expand its operations. In October,
1996, the Company closed a transaction with Ngai Keung Luk (Serleo), a 100%
shareholder of Physical Limited, whereby the Company entered into a Share
Exchange Agreement with Ngai Keung Luk (Serleo), pursuant to which the Company
issued 8,000,000 pre-split (6,000,000 post-split) shares of its Common Stock to
Ngai Keung Luk (Serleo) in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of
Physical Limited (the "Closing"). At the Closing, the then current management of
the Company resigned and was replaced by the current management of the Company.
See "Management."
The Company derives its revenues from two main lines of business:
fitness and spa services. The revenues derived from fitness services steadily
increased from HK$82,311,000 (US$10,621,000) in the fiscal year ended December
31, 1997 to HK$139,829,000 (US$18,042,000)in the fiscal year ended December 31,
1998. The revenue from beauty treatment increased slightly from HK$66,496,000
(US$8,580,000) in the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997 to HK$70,317,000
(US$9,073,000) in fiscal year 1998.
<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company's revenues are derived from its two main lines of business
of fitness and spa services in three principal ways: sale of memberships to
fitness facilities, monthly membership fees and the sale of beauty treatments.
The sale of beauty products and exercise clothing also contributes an
insignificant amount to the total revenues. In respect to fitness services,
customers are invited to join as a member at a fee currently set at
HK$2,000(US$258) for one person. (A current promotion allows a special fee of
HK$500 (US$65) at a particular booth). A monthly subscription fee of HK$299
(US$39) is charged to each customer for the usage of the fitness center and spa
area.
In respect to beauty treatments, the customers may purchase single
treatments, or in packages of ten or more treatments, with quantity discounts
available. There is a wide range of beauty treatments available at prices
ranging from HK$200 (US$26) to HK$3,000 (US$388).
The following table sets forth selected income data as a percentage of
total operating revenue for the periods indicated.

- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATING REVENUES. The Company's operating revenues enjoyed strong
growth in the first three months of 1999 as compared to the first three months
of 1998. Operating revenues for the first three months of 1999 totaled
HK$54,019,000 (US$6,970,000) compared to HK$41,553,000 (US$5,362,000) in the
first three months of 1998, representing an increase of 30%. Operating revenues
derived by the Company's fitness services increased 32% to HK$36,915,000
(US$4,763,000) compared to HK$27,893,000 (US$3,599,000) in the first three
months of 1998. Fitness revenues as a percentage of total revenues were 68% in
the first three months of 1999 as compared to 67% in the first three months of
1998.
Operating revenues from the Company's beauty treatment business totaled
HK$17,099,000 (US$2,206,000) compared to HK$13,633,000 (US$1,759,000) in the
first three months of 1999, representing an increase of 25%. Beauty treatment
revenues as a percentage of total revenues were 32% in the first three months of
1999 as compared to 33% in the first three months of 1998.
Operating revenues derived from the Company's Hong Kong locations remain an
important contributor to the Company's business, generating HK$49,332,000
(US$6,365,000) in the first three months of 1999 as compared to HK$37,952,000
(US$4,897,000) in the first three months of 1998. These represented 91% of total
operating revenues of the respective period.

<PAGE>
OPERATING EXPENSES. The Company's operating expenses for the first
three months of 1999 totaled HK$47,601,000 (US$6,142,000) compared to
HK$36,971,000 (US$4,771,000) in the first three months of 1998, representing an
increase of 29%. Total operating expenses, after taking into account all
corporate expenses, were 88% of total operating revenue as compared to 89% of
last year. This reflects the additional costs incurred by the Company in
following its business expansion plan. The increase in operating expenses was
primarily due to additional marketing, administrative and salary costs as a
result of increased revenues and additional costs incurred by the new Tsuen Wan
branch which opened in July 1998.
Operating expenses associated with the Company's Hong Kong locations for the
first three months of 1999 were HK$42,529,000 (US$5,488,000), representing an
increase of HK$10,391,000 (US$1,341,000) or 32% as compared to HK$32,138,000
(US$4,147,000) in 1998. Hong Kong operating expenses represented 89% of total
operating expenses in the first three months of 1999 as compared to 87% of total
operating expenses in 1998. The increase in operating expenses was primarily
incurred by a new branch in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong which has not yet been opened
in the same period of 1998. The operating expenses for the Tsuen Wan center
amounted to HK$10,967,000 (US$1,415,000) in the first three months of 1999,
representing 23% of total operating expenses.
Operating expenses associated with the Company's China locations were
HK$5,072,000 (US$654,000), representing an increase of 5% as compared to
HK$4,833,000 (US$624,000) in the first three months of 1998. The increase was
primarily due to inflation. Operating expenses in China represented 11% of total
operating expenses in the first three months of 1999 as compared to 13% of last
year.
TOTAL NON-OPERATING EXPENSES (INCOME). Total non-operating expenses
(income) for the first three months of 1999 totaled a net expense of HK$682,000
(US$87,000) compared to a net expense of HK$893,000 (US$115,000) in the first
three months of 1998, representing a decrease of 24% due to less interest
expenses incurred for bank loans.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. Provision for income taxes for the first
three months of 1998 totaled HK$997,000 (US$130,000) compared to HK$1,063,000
(US$137,000) in the first three months of 1998, representing a decrease of 6%.
The effective tax rate of operating income was 17% as compared to 29% of last
year. The decrease in the effective tax rate of operating income was due to the
increasing contribution from Hong Kong operations at the income tax rate of 16%
compared with the tax rate of 33% for China operations.
NET INCOME. The Company's net income for the first three months of 1999
totaled HK$4,473,000 (US$577,000) compared to HK$2,374,000 (US$306,000) for the
first three months of 1998, representing an increase of 88%. The net income
margin in the first three months of 1999 was 8% compared to 6% in the first
three months of 1998, representing an increase of 33%. This reflects the
additional contribution from the new branch.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has financed its operations primarily through cash
generated from operations, short-term bank credit, long-term bank loans, long
term loans from third parties and minority shareholders of subsidiaries,
advances from customers relating to prepaid fitness and spa income, and leasing

three-month period ended March 31, 1999, respectively. The Company's operating
activities are historically financed by cash flows from operations. Net cash

(US$858,000) for Fiscal Year 1998 and the three-month period ended March 31,
1999, primarily as a result of expenditures for property, plant and equipment.

loans, net interest and repayment, were HK$9,593,000 (US$1,238,000) and
HK$2,281,000 (US$294,000) in Fiscal Year 1998 and the three-month period ended

The Company obtained a term loan in the amount of HK$1,000,000
(US$129,000) from Shanghai Commercial Bank Limited in Fiscal Year 1996 in
connection with payment of rental deposits for the new Causeway Bay center
(relocation of an existing center). This loan is secured by leasehold property
in Hong Kong owned by relatives of Mr. Luk and is repayable in one lump sum on
November 6, 1997. No consideration has been paid by the Company for such
security. As of June 30, 1998, the outstanding principal amount of this loan was
HK$1,000,000 (US$129,000). The Company has negotiated with the bank to replace
the loan with a new loan which is to be repaid by sixty (60) equal monthly
installment payments commencing November, 1997.
The Company entered into a capital lease agreement with East Asia
Finance Company Limited in April, 1996 for the purchase of exercise equipment in
the amount of HK$1,759,200 (US$227,000) for the Dalian, China, center . The
lease is repayable in thirty six (36) monthly installments, commencing April,
1996 at an interest rate of 6.75% per annum. In addition, the Company secured a
loan of HK$3,168,000 (US$409,000) from Dao Heng Finance in August 1996 for the
equipment for a proposed new center in Zhongshan, China, however, the loan was
fully repaid in February 1997. In March, 1997 the Company entered into a capital
lease agreement with the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited for
the purchase of exercise equipment in the amount of HK$7,432,320 (US$959,000)
for the centers in Hong Kong. The lease is repayable in sixty (60) monthly
installments, commencing April, 1997 at an interest rate of 10.75% per annum. In
May, 1997 the Company entered into a capital lease agreement with East Asia
Finance Company, Limited for the purchase of exercise equipment in the amount of
HK$7,742,000 (US$999,000) for the Hong Kong centers. The lease is repayable in
thirty (30) monthly installments, commencing May, 1997 at an interest rate of
6.5% per annum.
The Company has revolving lines of credit with three banks - The
Kwangtung Provincial Bank, Dao Heng Bank, and Shanghai Commercial Bank Limited.
As of March 31, 1999, the Company has fully utilized these lines of credit. The
Company draws down from the lines of credit primarily for general working
capital purposes. The lines of credit contain covenants requiring the
maintenance of minimum net worth.
Consistent with the general practice of the fitness and spa industry,
the Company receives prepaid memberships to fitness facilities, which are
non-refundable, and spa treatment dues from its customers. This practice creates
working capital that the Company generally utilizes for working capital
purposes. However, the unused portion of the pre-paid membership and spa
treatment dues is characterized as deferred income, a current liability, for
accounting purposes.
The Company's trade receivable balance at March 31, 1999, was
HK$7,267,000 (US$938,000). The Company has never experienced any significant
problems with collection of accounts receivable from its customers.
Capital expenditure for 1998, and the three-month period ended March
31, 1999, were HK$38,416,000 (US$4,956,000) and HK$7,060,000 (US$910,000)
respectively. The Company believes that cash flow generated from its operations
and its existing credit facilities should be sufficient to satisfy its working
capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months.
YEAR 2000 DISCLOSURE
The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written
using two digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year. Computer
programs that have sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the
year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system failure or
miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other
things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage
in similar normal business activities.
The Company underwent a system redevelopment project to improve the
efficiency of the system with respect to changing its computer programs to
properly identify a year in the year field. The new system which is year 2000
compliant was implemented by July 1, 1999.
