NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS:
On November 12, 1997, Mid-Way Medical and Diagnostic Center, Inc.
("Mid-Way Medical") a Florida corporation, changed its domicile state
to Nevada and changed is name to Ciro International, Inc. ("the
Company"). On December 2, 1997, Mid-Way Acquisition Corp. ("Mid-Way"),
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid-Way Medical, merged with Ciro Jewelry,
Inc.
At the closing, Jewelry's sole shareholder was issued 2,500,000 shares
of the Company's stock in exchange for all the outstanding shares of
the subsidiary. As a result of the merger all the assets, liabilities
and the business of the subsidiary became the assets, liabilities and
business of Mid-Way. At the same time, the former majority shareholder
of Mid-Way Medical canceled and/or sold a vast majority of his shares
in the Company. After the merger Mid-Way changed it's name to Ciro
Jewelry, Inc. This transaction is considered to be a recapitalization
with Ciro Jewelry as the accounting acquirer and has been reflected
using reverse acquisition accounting.
Ciro Jewelry Inc. (subsidiary) owns a trademark for the "Ciro" jewelry
name in the following countries: Bolivia, Chile, Hungary, Israel,
Japan, Macao, Mexico, Monaco, Panama, Philippines, Portugal, South
Korea, Russia and the United States. The Company licenses its trademark
and receives royalties from the licensees.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets
and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. For
the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company incurred a loss of
$265,732, which increased the accumulated deficit to $842,842. The loss
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 increased this deficit to
$859,560. In addition the Company has lost its main source of
royalties. It is the Company's intention to seek a replacement licensee
for its main source of royalty income, however to date, a replacement
has not been found.
The current operating expenses of the Company are minimal. The majority
of the 1999 loss was a result of amortization and the subsequent write
off of a trademark as well as bad debt expenses. The majority
shareholder has indicated his willingness to provide the funds for all
operating expenses at least through September 30, 2001, which primarily
consist of professional fees associated with SEC filings and other
nominal costs. The shareholder has indicated this willingness to
provide the necessary working capital until sufficient royalty income
is generated from its trademark or other financing is obtained to make
the Company self sufficient.
In view of these matters, realization of the assets of the Company is
dependent upon the Company's ability to generate royalty income from
its trademark, and the success of its future operations. The financial
statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability
and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of
liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to
continue in existence. The Company will attempt to market the trademark
to other sources, although management cannot provide assurance that
they will be successful in doing so.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Ciro International, Inc. ("Company") exists primarily as a holding company. The
Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Ciro Jewelry, Inc. ("Ciro Jewelry") generates
income as a result of the licensing of the CIRO name in connection with the sale
of fashion (costume) Jewelry. Ciro Jewelry currently has 3 licensees in the
United States, Korea, Mexico, and Russia who operate approximately 5 fashion
jewelry stores using the CIRO name. The Company is seeking additional licensees.
The Company does not manufacture or distribute the products sold under the CIRO
name, nor does it secure the source of availability of materials used to
manufacture Ciro products. These responsibilities are left up to the individual
licensees.
Results of Operations
The Company had royalty revenues for the quarter and nine months ended September
30, 2000 of $360 and $5,482, representing a 100% increase and a 89% decrease
from royalty revenues of $0 and $50,849 for the same periods of 1999. The
decrease in royalty income was caused by the fact that the Company lost its
primary licensee. The Company is currently attempting to market its trademark to
other sources, although management cannot provide assurance that they will be
successful in doing this.
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $2,564 for the third
quarter of 2000 compared to $7,061 for the third quarter of 1999. SG&A for the
first nine months of 2000 was $30,213 compared to $68,349 for the first nine
months of 1999. The differences are caused by bad debt expense and amortization
expenses for trademarks which were written off at December 31, 1999. The Company
had no amortization expense for the quarter and nine months ended September 30,
2000 and amortization expense of $6,210 and $18,629 for the same periods of
1999. The Company had no bad debt expense for the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and bad debt expense of $0 and $33,490 for the same periods
of 1999.
The Company had net losses of $2,504 and $16,718 for the third quarter and first
nine months of 2000 down 63% and 7% from losses of $6,691 and $17,880 for the
same periods of 1999. The ongoing losses are caused primarily by the fact that
the Company lost its primary licensee.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had a working capital deficiency at September 30, 2000 of $15,088
compared to working capital of $1,630 as of December 31, 1999. The difference
was caused by accrued expenses incurred as of September 30, 2000 for accounting
and printing fees. The majority shareholder has indicated his willingness to
provide the funds for all expenses not covered by cash flow at least through
September 30, 2001. The Company is actively attempting to add additional
licensees in an attempt to generate sufficient cash flow as to not have to rely
on working capital loans from the majority shareholder.
