                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000


NOTE 1            UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
                  have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
                  accounting principles for interim financial information and
                  with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 310(b) of
                  Regulation SB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
                  information and footnote disclosures normally included in
                  complete consolidated financial statements prepared in
                  accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For
                  further information, such as significant accounting policies
                  followed by the Company, refer to the notes to the Company's
                  audited consolidated financial statements.

                  In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated
                  financial statements include all necessary adjustments
                  (consisting of normal, recurring accruals) for a fair
                  presentation of the financial position, results of operations
                  and cash flow for the interim periods presented. Preparing
                  consolidated financial statements requires management to make
                  estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
                  assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results may
                  differ from these estimates. Interim results are not
                  necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

NOTE 2            SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

                  Universal Beverages Holdings Corporation and its wholly owned
                  subsidiary, Universal Beverages, Inc., are in the business of
                  manufacturing and distributing the SYFO(R) brand of bottled
                  water as well as other beverage products under contract. The
                  Company was incorporated in the State of Florida on July 18,
                  1989 under the name International Bon Voyage, Inc. On March 6,
                  1998 the Company acquired 100% of Universal Beverages, Inc., a
                  Florida corporation, and changed its name to Universal
                  Beverages Holdings Corporation.

                  Accounting Estimates
                  --------------------
                  The preparation of consolidated 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 and
                  disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
                  the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts
                  of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
                  results could differ from those estimates.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000

NOTE 2            SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

                  Property and Equipment
                  ----------------------
                  Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of
                  depreciable assets is computed using the Modified Accelerated
                  Recovery System (MACRS) for federal and state tax purposes.
                  Major expenditures for property acquisitions and those
                  expenditures, which substantially increase the estimated
                  useful lives of the property, are capitalized. Expenditures
                  for maintenance, repairs, and minor replacements are charged
                  to expense as incurred.

                  Cash and Cash Equivalents
                  -------------------------
                  The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments
                  purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to
                  be cash equivalents.

                  Inventories
                  -----------
                  Inventories consisting of raw materials, work in process,
                  pallets and furnished goods are valued at the lower of cost or
                  market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method
                  (FIFO).

                  Revenue Recognition
                  -------------------
                  Revenues are recognized when the products are shipped. Revenue
                  is reduced for estimated customer returns and allowances.

                  Accounts Receivable
                  -------------------
                  Accounts receivable are stated at the face amount net of
                  allowance for doubtful accounts. Generally accepted accounting
                  principles require that the allowance method be used to
                  reflect bad debts. A provision for doubtful accounts has been
                  established to reflect an allowance for uncollectible amounts.

                  Income Taxes
                  ------------
                  The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
                  Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109,
                  Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires companies to use
                  the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.

                  Concentration of Risk
                  ---------------------
                  Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
                  concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of balances at
                  financial institutions.

                        QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000

NOTE 2            SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

                  Concentration of Risk
                  ---------------------
                  The Company had deposits with four financial institutions
                  amounting to $104,352 and ($37,885) at September 30, 2000 and
                  December 31, 1999, respectively, which were insured for up to
                  $100,000 per financial institution by the U.S. Federal Deposit
                  Insurance Corporation. The Company believes that risks
                  relating to cash balances are minimized as a result of the
                  size and stature of the financial institutions in which the
                  Company maintains its account.

                  Advertising
                  -----------
                  Advertising costs are charged to operations when they first
                  take place. The Company had capitalized $188,573 on September
                  30, 2000, related to the final version of the infomercial that
                  has yet to be aired. Advertising expense totaled $138,230 for
                  the nine months ended September 30, 2000.

                  Amortization
                  ------------
                  Amortization of trademarks, brand names, copyrights and
                  goodwill is determined utilizing the straight-line method
                  based generally on the estimated useful lives of the
                  intangibles as follows:

                             Organization expense                       5 years
                             Trademark and brand name                  15 years

                  Accounting Pronouncements
                  -------------------------
                  In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
                  Statement of Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about
                  Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (SFAS No.
                  131), which established presentation of financial data based
                  on the "management approach". SFAS No. 131 is applicable for
                  years beginning after December 15, 1997. For the current
                  fiscal year we are not going to present segment reporting
                  because it is immaterial.

                  Basic Loss per Share and Diluted Loss per Share
                  -----------------------------------------------
                  In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
                  issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128,
                  Earnings Per Share (SFAS No. 128), which specifies the
                  computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for
                  earnings per share. SFAS No. 128 supercedes Accounting
                  Principle Board Opinion No. 15 entitled Earnings Per Share.
                  Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income
                  available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the
                  weighted-average number of common shares (the denominator) for
                  the period. The computation of diluted earnings per share is
                  similar to basic earnings per share, except that the
                  denominator is increased to include the number of additional
                  common shares that would have been outstanding if the
                  potentially dilutive common shares had been issued.

                        QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000

NOTE 2            SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

                  Basic Loss per Share and Diluted Loss per Share
                  -----------------------------------------------
                  The numerator in calculating basic earnings per share is
                  reported net loss. The denominator is based on the following
                  weighted-average number of common shares:

                                    Basic                         6,906,012
                                    Dilutive                      7,267.070

                  The 5,191,996 shares of common stock reserved for the exercise
                  of warrants are not included in the diluted earnings per share
                  because the exercise price is above the average market price
                  per share.

                  Principles of Consolidation
                  ---------------------------
                  The consolidated financial statements of the Company include
                  those accounts of Universal Beverages, Inc. All significant
                  intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
                  the consolidation.

NOTE 3            PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

                  Property and equipment at September 30, 2000 and December 31,
                  1999 consisted of the following:

                                                  September 30,     December 31,
                                                      2000            1999

period of 1999. This revenue includes approximately $1,097,000 from the sale of
spring water to Sam's Club, for which shipments began in September 2000. Our net
sales of Syfo(R) increased during the third quarter by approximately $150,000 as
a result of our increased marketing. However, our results for the third quarter
of 2000 do not include any revenue from the sale of water to the United States
to meet hurricane emergencies. We generated approximately $550,000 from this
source in the third quarter of 1999.

         Our cost of goods sold did not increase proportionately resulting in an
increase in our cost of goods sold to approximately 82% for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 in contrast to approximately 67% for the same period in
1999. Management does not believe that this increase in costs of goods sold
actually reflects what is occurring and attributes this number to the fact that
for the month of September it installed a new


                                       20

computer system while the first two months of the quarter were recorded on the
old computer system. Management believes that the variance that occurred may
very well be cancelled during the year end at the annual audit. However, there
can be no assurances that management's belief is correct. In any event, as a
result of the low gross profit margin, our gross profit for the quarter ended
September 30, 2000 was $ 318,533 in contrast to $360,483 for the same quarter in
1999.

         Our general and administrative expenses substantially increased for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 resulting in an increase of approximately
154%. This substantial increase is primarily attributable to our write-off of
costs incurred in an acquisition we did not complete, increased public company
costs and our increase in staff to support our increase in business. Our sales
expense increase of approximately $130,000 is primarily due to freight costs
incurred in shipments to Sam's Club. Marketing expenses increased by
approximately $80,000. About one-half of this increase is attributable to our
exclusive agreement to distribute water in AllTel Stadium in Jacksonville,
Florida and our marketing of the Jacksonville Jaguars NFL team. The other
marketing increase is from our increase in marketing our Syfo(R) brand. The
increase in consulting and professional fees is from an increase in routine
litigation as the result of our tight cash flow, and increased accounting costs
resulting from our new Securities and Exchange Commission reporting obligations
and an increase in investor relations expenses.

         As the result of our March 31, 2000 debt restructuring, our interest
expense for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was $29,698 in contrast to
$123,412 for the same quarter in 1999. The other significant item for the


                                       21

<PAGE>


quarter was that we had no extraordinary litigation expenses which accrued for
the last quarter in contrast to $127,389 for the quarter ended September 30,
1999. These factors resulted in our sustaining a loss of $608,039 for the
quarter ended September 30, 2000 in contrast to $255,633 for the same quarter in
1999.

         For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 our revenue was a record
of $2,972,946 in contrast to $2,200,363 for the nine months ended September 30,
1999. The reasons for the increase are the same as the reasons for the increase
of the third quarter of 2000. Because of the substantial increase in cost of
goods sold, and for the same reasons expressed above, our gross profit margins
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 were approximately 18% in contrast
to approximately 22% for the same period in 1999. Our general administrative
expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 were $2,116,235 in contrast
to $992,225 for the same period of 1999. This increase and increases in sales,
marketing and consulting and professional expenses were for the same reasons as
expressed above although consulting and professional fees totaled $548,597 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000 in contrast only $39,016 for the same
period of 1999. Additionally, we incurred significant non-cash charges during
the first six months of this year as the result of stock issuances recorded as a
consulting expense.

         Our interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was
$190,126 in contrast to $383,023 for the same period 1999. Much of the interest
occurred in the first quarter prior to the March 31, 2000 restructuring. We also
incurred other income of $451,473 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000

                                       22

primarily resulting from gains recognized in connection with the restructuring.
The other significant item during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was
that extraordinary litigation expenses were only $10,680 in contrast to $365,381
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Most of these litigation expenses
are attributable to significant litigation, which we settled in 1999.

         Our loss from continuing operations from the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 was $1,398,495 in contrast to $1,245,870 for the same period
in 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         As of September 30, 2000, our current liabilities, including the
current portion of long-term debt, exceeded our current assets by $2,436,675. We
have a substantial amount of debt due in the next several months. Because we do
not anticipate receiving proceeds from the exercise of warrants by that date, we
are currently seeking alternate sources of financing and to restructure or
extend our indebtedness. Between our indebtedness, which is coming due in the
next several months, and dividends owed to preferred to shareholders due in
January 2001, we estimate that we need over $1,500,000 including interest by
early January 2001. This includes $600,000 owed to First National Bank of Blue
Island which holds a first lien on all of our assets including our manufacturing
facility and equipment as well as our accounts receivable and cash. This amount
also includes $350,000 plus interest owed to Telcoa International Corporation,

                                       23

<PAGE>


and $150,000 owed to Clifford Alan Moore, who holds a junior security interest
in our cash, accounts receivable and equipment. We also owe Mr. Moore a $35,000
transaction fee which is to be paid in four equal monthly installments beginning
October 4, 2000. Further, we have recently learned that one of our creditors,
Eva and Lasse Moe and Roberto and Barbara Rial, has elected to accelerate the
repayment on its $50,000 note, with an unpaid balance of $43,792 at September
30, 2000, due to our alleged failure to make monthly payments as agreed. We are
currently endeavoring to find short-term financing or reach accommodations with
creditors in order to extend our indebtedness.

         Our short-term liquidity needs include approximately $165,000 owed in
dividends to our preferred shareholders. Under the terms of all of our
outstanding classes of preferred stock, if we fail to make three consecutive
dividend payments, holders of each outstanding series may declare a dividend
default in which event each share of the series of preferred stock shall have 10
votes per share in connection with the election of directors. We have failed to
make the initial two dividend payments and the third payments are due January
10, 2001. We recently offered our Series B holders the opportunity to receive
shares of our common stock at $1.00 per share in lieu of past-due dividends for
two quarters. This offer has been well received.

         We are currently seeking to borrow $157,000, which we intend to use to
complete the installation of our own bottling facility. If we are able to make
arrangements for this loan, we will likely issue warrants or other equity
securities in connection with the financing, as well as execute a promissory
note.

                                       24

         In connection with our arrangements for this loan, one of our preferred
shareholders affiliated with the potential lender agreed to convert its
preferred stock into 383,333 shares of our common stock at an effective price of
$1.40 per share including other consideration. This conversion price was above
fair market value; the preferred shareholder actually could have converted at
20% discount to market. We believe this favorable transaction coupled with the
related loan negotiation reflects the confidence in our business plan.

         Additionally, we need approximately $600,000 to purchase additional
laboratory equipment for our quality control efforts. Our future results of
operations will be directly affected by our ability to acquire this additional
equipment, particularly the completion of our bottle making facility. We
estimate, that based upon our existing business, operating our own bottle making
facility will save us approximately $2,100,000 in 2001.

Forward-Looking Statements

         The above management's discussion and analysis contains forward-looking
statements as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
relating to adjustments in costs of goods sold expected to occur in or following
the fourth quarters, our ability to solve our working capital needs and
liquidity, results of the offer to our Series B preferred shareholders and
estimated savings from operating our own bottling facility. In addition to these

                                       25

<PAGE>

statements, trend analyses and other information including words such as "seek,"
"anticipate," "believe," "plan," "estimate," "expect," "intend" and other
similar expressions are forward looking statements. Some or all of these
forward-looking statements may not occur. These forward-looking statements are
subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties
include the following: our ability to harmonize our old accounting system with
our new accounting system, our ability to reach an accommodation with our
creditors and preferred shareholders and ability to efficiently install and
operate our bottle making facility.

These statements are based on our beliefs as well as assumptions we made using
information currently available to us. We undertake no obligation to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events, or otherwise.

                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


         ITEM 1.           LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         We are a party to a number of lawsuits arising out of commercial
transactions. Although none of the suits would normally involve a material
amount of potential liability, our current liquidity needs result in a different
conclusion. Any adverse determination would have a material adverse effect on
our financial condition. Additionally, a contractor which installed our plant's
production line and performed preliminary work for our proposed second line,
recently filed a lien against our Leesburg real property for $394,000. It also
is threatening suit.

         Further, we recently were given notice of default by the holders of a
note for which we currently owe approximately $44,000. The default arose because
we inadvertently failed to pay the November 1st installment of $1,389 plus
interest. We are attempting to persuade the note holders to withdraw their
notice of default. If they fail to do so and initiate litigation, we will defend
the suit since we believe the holders have acted in a commercially unreasonable
manner.


         ITEM 2.           CHANGES IN SECURITIES

                           None.

         ITEM 3.           DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

         We are required to make quarterly dividend payments to our Series B,
Series C, Series D, Series E and Series F preferred shareholders in the amount
of $167,500 and our annual dividend payments to these preferred shareholders
equals $668,600. The scheduled dividend payment dates are January 10, April 10,
July 10 and October 10. We failed to make our first and second scheduled
dividend payment on July 10 and October 10, 2000. If we fail to make three
dividend payments, the preferred shareholders can send us a notice stating that
we are in default under the terms of the preferred stock. If we are in default,
each share of preferred stock will have 10 votes per share toward the election
of directors of the Company. Accordingly, if we are in default under the terms
of the preferred stock, the preferred shareholders will probably be in a
position to control our board of directors. In October and November of 2000, we
offered shares of our common stock, as provided in our articles of
incorporation, in lieu of past due dividends. To date, more than half of the
Series B preferred shareholders have accepted this offer.

         ITEM 4.           SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

                           None.

         ITEM 5.           OTHER INFORMATION

                           None.

         ITEM 6.           EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K.
