FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
MGPX Ventures, Inc. (the "Company") cautions readers that certain important
factors may affect the Company's actual results and could cause such results to
differ materially from any forward-looking statements that may be deemed to have
been made in this Form 10-SB registration statement, or that are otherwise made
by or on behalf of the Company. For this purpose, any statements contained in
the registration statement that are not statements of historical fact may be
deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, words such as "may," "expect," "believe," "anticipate," "intend,"
"could," "estimate," or "continue," or the negative or other variations thereof
or comparable terminology, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Factors that may affect the Company's results include, but are not limited to,
whether the Company will be able, in a timely manner, to identify appropriate
acquisition or merger candidates, to negotiate satisfactory terms for an
acquisition or merger, and to satisfy any regulatory, business, financing or
other requirements and address other types of contingencies that may arise in
connection with the acquisition or merger.

PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
MGPX Ventures, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State
of Nevada on August 7, 1986 under the name of Maple Enterprises, Inc. ("Maple").
On July 8, 1988, Maple acquired approximately 99% of the outstanding shares of
Warner Technologies, Inc. ("Warner"), a privately held California corporation,
in exchange for shares of common stock and stock options. On September 16,
1988, Warner merged into Maple, and the name of the surviving company was
changed to Warner Technologies, Inc.
While doing business under the name of Warner Technologies, Inc., the Company
provided energy efficiency products and services in three principal areas: (1)
lighting retrofits, (2) electrical control systems for buildings, and (3)
strategic energy planning services. These products and services were delivered
to commercial, industrial, institutional and government buildings through
contracts with building owners and managers, as well as directly to utilities
for their customers' benefit. However, as a result of deregulation and other
significant changes in the industry, the Company did not have sufficient capital
resources to compete effectively within the electricity industry.
On February 16, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Agreement") to
sell its operating business and substantially all of its net operating assets
(the "Sale of Assets"), effective as of December 31, 1997, to Thomas S. Hathaway
and Joseph A. Ferrari, who were then serving as the Company's President and
Executive Vice President, respectively. See Note 3 to the financial statements
on page 31 for a description of the net operating assets. The cash purchase
price of $650,000 was established through negotiations between the outside
members of the Company's Board of Directors and Messrs. Hathaway and Ferrari and
was supported by: (i) a September 24, 1997 independent valuation by Singer
Lewak Greenbaum & Goldstein LLP of the Company's net assets, using the
capitalization of excess earnings - return on assets method of valuation, which
established an estimated fair market value of $475,000; and (ii) a February 14,
1998 fairness opinion from The Mentor Group, Inc. ("TMG") to the Company's Board
of Directors to the effect that, in the opinion of TMG, the terms of the Sale of
Assets were fair to the shareholders of the Company from a financial point of
view. On March 10, 1998, at the annual shareholders meeting of the Company,
approximately 87% of the Company's outstanding voting equity (and approximately
82% of the outstanding voting equity held by persons other than Messrs. Hathaway
and Ferrari) voted, in person or by proxy, to approve the Sale of Assets.
Shareholders also voted to change the name of the Company from Warner
Technologies, Inc. to MGPX Ventures, Inc. To the Company's best knowledge,
there is no relationship between Messrs. Hathaway and Ferrari and any other
shareholders of the Company. The Sale of Assets was completed on March 31,
1998. The Company received net proceeds of $585,000 from the sale after closing
costs.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company also purchased from Messrs. Hathaway and
Ferrari for $1,000 all of the shares of common stock of the Company ("Common
Stock") owned by them (183,481 shares from Mr. Hathaway and 159,396 shares from
Mr. Ferrari). In addition, under the Agreement, all of their options and option
rights were canceled.
As a result of the sale of its assets, the Company is now a "shell" company with
minimal operations. The Company's business plan is to identify and complete an
acquisition, merger or other transaction that will
3
<PAGE>
enhance shareholder value. See Part I, Item 2, "Management's Discussion and
Analysis or Plan of Operation."
Under Nevada law, stockholder approval will not be required for the Company to
make an acquisition of assets for cash or for stock, so long as the number of
shares to be issued does not exceed the number currently authorized for
issuance, as described in Part I, Item 8, "Description of Securities - Common
Stock." Stockholder approval will be required for the Company to complete a
merger with another entity unless all of the following conditions are satisfied:
(1) the Company will be the surviving corporation; (2) the Company's articles of
incorporation following the merger will not differ from its articles of
incorporation as existing prior to the merger; (3) each stockholder of the
Company will hold the same number and type of shares after the merger as before;
(4) the number of shares of the Company that entitle their holders to vote
unconditionally in elections of directors ("voting shares") which are
outstanding after the merger, plus the number of voting shares that will be
issued as a result of the merger, will not exceed by more than 20% the number of
voting shares of the Company outstanding before the merger; and (5) the number
of shares of the Company that entitle their holders to participate without
limitation in distributions ("participating shares") which are outstanding after
the merger, plus the number of participating shares that will be issued as a
result of the merger, will not exceed by more than 20% the number of
participating shares of the Company outstanding before the merger. Therefore,
the particular terms of any agreement of merger that is negotiated will
determine whether stockholder approval is required.
The Company is voluntarily filing this registration statement to become a
reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 because the Company
believes that reporting company status may enhance the Company's desirability as
a potential acquiror or potential merger candidate.
The Company currently does not have any full-time or part-time employees and
does not intend to hire any employees until it completes an acquisition or
merger. The Company's President and Chief Executive Officer serves as such on a
part-time basis under the terms of a consulting agreement. The Company's
Chairman and Chief Financial Officer serves as such on a part-time basis without
compensation. See Part I, Item 6, "Executive Compensation."

<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
PLAN OF OPERATION
As a "shell" company, the Company currently has no revenues from operations.
The Company's operations prior to December 31, 1997 (the effective date of the
sale of the Company's operating business as described in Part I, Item 1, above)
are classified and reported as "discontinued operations" in the accompanying
financial statements as of June 30, 1998 and for each of the two years in the
period then ended.
The Company's business plan is to identify and complete an acquisition, merger
or other transaction that will enhance shareholder value. The Company's
President and Chairman are investigating potential business opportunities, as
authorized by the Board of Directors. The Board has placed no limitations on
the type of business or industry to consider. Currently, the Company has no
plans, agreements, arrangements or understandings, written or oral, with respect
to any acquisition, merger or similar transaction. No assurances can be given
as to the Company's ability to identify and complete a transaction by any given
date or as to the nature of the business or profitability of the Company if a
transaction is completed. A proposed transaction could be subject to
significant regulatory, business, financing and other contingencies and might
require stockholder and other approvals. See Part I, Item 1, "Description of
Business."
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is a limited discussion of the results of operations for the three
months ended September 30, 1998, and of results of operations for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1998 compared to those for the fiscal year ended June 30,
1997. A comparison of the results of operations for the 1998 fiscal year are
not directly comparable to results for the prior year periods because of the
sale of substantially all of the Company's net operating assets effective
December 31, 1997. The limited results of operations for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 are described below, but no comparison has been made of the
results of operations for that period to those for the prior year period because
such a comparison would not be meaningful under the circumstances.
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
During the quarter ended September 30, 1998, the Company continued to operate as
a shell corporation. The Company incurred general and administrative expenses
of $19,294 that were mainly comprised of a consulting fee of $12,510 paid to the
Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. Interest income of $7,065
represents income earned during the quarter on the Company's cash and cash
equivalents.
FISCAL 1998 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1997
CONTINUING OPERATIONS. During the last six months of the fiscal year ended June
30, 1998, when the Company was operating as a shell corporation, it incurred
general and administrative expenses of $16,436. These expenses were mainly
comprised of a consulting fee of $12,510 paid to the Company's
5
<PAGE>
President and Chief Executive Officer. Income for the same period totaled
$7,443, and was derived mainly from interest earned on the Company's cash and
cash equivalents.
Management anticipates that while the Company operates as a shell corporation,
it will incur expenses of approximately $7,500 per month.
Net loss per share for the fiscal year was $.17 from discontinued operations and
$.01 from continuing operations, for a total net loss of $.18 per share, as
compared to net income of $.01 per share in fiscal 1997.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS. Effective December 31, 1997, the Company sold
substantially all of its net assets used in operations to management for
$650,000. Net proceeds were approximately $585,000 after closing costs. As a
condition of the transaction, management agreed to the cancellation of its stock
options and the sale of their common shares to the Company for $1,000,
representing more than a 25% reduction in beneficial control of common shares.
As a result, the Company's operations through December 31, 1997 are reported as
discontinued operations. The results from discontinued operations included
total revenues of approximately $2,605,000 and $3,101,000 and net income (loss)
of approximately $(497,000) and $28,000 for the years ended June 30, 1998 and
1997, respectively. Deferred tax assets were recorded as a result of the
Company's operations. With the sale of the Company's assets to members of
former management as of December 31, 1997, management of the Company determined
that it was more likely than not that the tax assets would not be utilized in
the future. Therefore, a full allowance of $515,058 was recorded and included
in income from operations for the year ended June 30, 1998. The $207,572 gain
on the sale of the assets was calculated by deducting the net assets sold of
$377,428 from the net cash received of $585,000. See Note 7 to the financial
statements on page 34.
LIQUIDITY
Working capital at September 30, 1998 was $509,082. The primary component of
such working capital is the Company's cash and cash equivalents of $546,073,
which management believes is sufficient to cover current operations for at least
the next twelve months.
Depending on the success of the Company's efforts to locate a potential
candidate for merger or acquisition, management believes that the Company's
present working capital may need to be supplemented to support the operations of
the merged or acquired company over the next 12 months. Additional working
capital may be sought through additional debt or equity private placements,
additional notes payable to banks or related parties (officers, directors or
stockholders), or from industry-available funding sources at market rates of
interest, or a combination of these. The ability to raise necessary financing
will depend on many factors, including the nature and prospects of any business
to be acquired and the economic and market conditions prevailing at the time
financing is sought. No assurances can be given that any necessary financing
can be obtained on terms favorable to the Company, or at all.
6
<PAGE>
YEAR 2000 ISSUE
The Company's business does not currently utilize any electronic
processing systems and therefore is not directly at risk for having systems
that will not recognize the Year 2000 ("Y2K") or treat any date after
December 31, 1999 as a date during the twentieth century. However, no
assurances can be given that the Company will be able to avoid all Y2K
problems, especially those that might originate with third parties with whom
the Company transacts business, such as financial institutions, and the
Company has not undertaken any investigation to determine the Y2K readiness
of such parties. In addition, the Company will be required to assess the Y2K
readiness of its potential acquisition and merger candidates and can give no
assurance that all potential Y2K problems of such candidates will be
identified and either corrected or avoided. If the Company, an acquired
business or any third party with whom the Company does business were to have
a Y2K problem, the business of the Company could be disrupted and the
Company's financial condition and results of operations could be materially
adversely affected.
ITEM 3. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
In April 1998, the Company relocated its corporate office to 17337 Ventura
Boulevard, Suite 224, Encino, CA 91316. Under the terms of a consulting
agreement with the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, Buddy
Young, the office space is provided at no additional cost to the Company.
The Company anticipates that this space will be adequate for its operations
through the end of fiscal 1999.

to Messrs. Hathaway and Ferrari, who were then serving as the Company's
President and Executive Vice President, respectively. See Note 3 to the
financial statements on page 31 for a description of the net operating assets
sold. The cash purchase price of $650,000 was established through negotiations
between the Company's outside directors and Messrs. Hathaway and Ferrari and was
supported by an independent valuation of the net assets by Singer Lewak
Greenbaum & Goldstein and a fairness opinion from The Mentor Group, Inc. On
March 10, 1998, the Company's stockholders voted to approve the sale and to
change the name of the Company to MGPX Ventures, Inc. The Sale of Assets was
completed on March 31, 1998. The Company received net proceeds of $585,000 from
the sale after closing costs. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company also
purchased from Messrs. Hathaway and Ferrari for $1,000 all of the shares of
Common Stock of the Company owned by them (183,481 shares from Mr. Hathaway and
159,396 shares from Mr. Ferrari). In addition, under the Agreement, all of
their options and option rights were canceled.

ITEM 8. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
COMMON STOCK
The Company's certificate of incorporation provides for the authorization of
12,375,000 shares of Common Stock, $.04 par value per share. As of January 26,
1999, 1,509,865 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding, all of which
are fully-paid and non-assessable.
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record
on all matters to be voted on by stockholders, and are not entitled to
cumulative voting for the election of directors. Upon the liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the business of the Company, after payment of all
liabilities and payment of preferential amounts to the holders of Preferred
Stock, the shares of Common Stock are entitled to share equally in the Company's
remaining assets. Pursuant to the Company's articles of incorporation, no
stockholder of the Company has any preemptive rights to subscribe for securities
of the Company. The Common Stock is not subject to redemption.
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive such dividends as the Board of
Directors may from time to time declare out of funds legally available for the
payment of dividends. No dividends are payable to holders of Common Stock until
all dividends due on Preferred Stock have been paid. See Part II, Item 1,
"Market Price of and Dividends on the Registrant's Common Equity and Other
Shareholder Matters."
PREFERRED STOCK
The Company's certificate of incorporation provides for the authorization of
125,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.04 par value per share, with such rights,
preferences and privileges as may be determined by the Board of Directors.
Therefore, the Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to
issue Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to fix for any series the
dividend rights, dissolution or liquidation preferences, redemption prices,
conversion rights, voting rights, and other rights, preferences or privileges
for such Preferred Stock which could adversely affect the voting power or other
rights of the holders of Common Stock.
The Board of Directors has designated for issuance up to 50,000 shares of
Series B Preferred Stock. As of January 26, 1999, 16,792 shares of Series B
Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding, all of which were fully-paid and
non-assessable. Currently, the Board of Directors has no plans or
arrangements for the issuance of any additional shares of Preferred Stock.
Such shares could, under certain circumstances, be issued as a method of
discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company, and
the issuance of such shares could prevent holders of the Company's Common
Stock from receiving a premium for their shares from a potential third-party
acquiror.
Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as
declared by the Board of Directors out of legally available funds, a
cumulative 6% per annum dividend payable quarterly. Such dividends accrue
and are cumulative whether or not such dividends are paid. See Part II, Item
1, "Market Price of and Dividends on the Registrant's Common Equity and Other
Shareholder Matters." The Series B Preferred Stock is not subject to
redemption.
13
<PAGE>
Holders of Series B Preferred Stock have no voting rights unless the Company
fails to make two consecutive quarterly dividend payments. In such event,
holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to vote as a class with holders
of the Common Stock, with 36 votes for each share of Series B Preferred Stock
they hold, and are entitled to cumulative voting for the election of directors.
These rights are currently available to holders of Series B Preferred Stock
because the Company has not made the required quarterly dividend payments since
March 1997.
Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible at any time, at the option
of the holder, into 12 shares of Common Stock. If any holder converts and
dividends are accrued and unpaid on the date of conversion, the Company is
required to pay such dividends within 60 days. Each share of Series B Preferred
Stock is convertible into 12 shares of Common Stock at the option of the Company
at any time after December 31, 1994 if, during any ten consecutive business day
period, the closing bid price of the Common Stock is $4.00 per share or greater
and all quarterly dividends prior to the date of conversion have been paid.
In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, each
share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive from the assets
of the Company a cash liquidation preference equal to the stated value per share
of $30 and a further preferential amount in cash equal to all unpaid accrued
cumulative dividends. No cash liquidation preference will be payable to holders
of Series B Preferred Stock if the Company completes a merger with another
corporation, so long as the holders of Series B Preferred Stock are given the
right to receive upon conversion of their preferred shares the same number of
shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, or of the
successor corporation resulting from the merger, which the holders would have
been entitled to receive in the merger had they converted their preferred shares
into Common Stock just prior to the merger.
Only the Company's class of Common Stock, and not its class of Preferred Stock,
is subject to this registration statement under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934.
TRANSFER AGENT
The Company's transfer agent is U.S. Stock Transfer Corporation, 1745 Gardena
Avenue, Second Floor, Glendale, California 91204, Contact: Mr. William Garza,

ITEM 5. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Section 78.751 of the Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS") provides that a
corporation may indemnify any director or officer against expenses (including
attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and settlements arising in connection with a
legal proceeding to which such a person is a party, if the person acted in good
faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Unless
the person is successful upon the merits in such an action, indemnification may
be awarded only after a determination is made by independent decision of the
Board of Directors, by legal counsel, or by a vote of the stockholders that the
applicable standard of conduct was met by the person to be indemnified.
The circumstances under which indemnification is granted in connection with an
action brought on behalf of the Company is generally the same as those set forth
above; however, with respect to such actions, indemnification is granted only
with respect to expenses actually incurred in connection with the defense or
settlement of the action. In such actions, the person to be indemnified must
have acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and must not have been
adjudged liable for negligence or misconduct.
Section 78.751 also provides that indemnification pursuant to its provisions
shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a person seeking
indemnification may be entitled under the articles of incorporation or any
bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise,
except that indemnification (unless ordered by a court) may not be made to any
director or officer if a final adjudication establishes that his acts or
omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the
law and was material to the cause of action.
Article V of the Company's by-laws provide that the Company shall indemnify any
director or officer against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments,
penalties, fines and settlements arising in connection with a legal proceeding
to which such a person is a party to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of
Nevada as they may exist from time to time.
In addition, Article Eleven of the Company's articles of incorporation provides
that no director or officer of the Company shall be liable to the Company or its
stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer,
except for (a) acts of omission which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a
knowing violation of law; or (b) the payment of dividends in violation of
Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (regarding unlawful distributions
to stockholders).
Under NRS Section 78.752 and Article V of the Company's by-laws, the Company may
purchase and maintain insurance for directors and officers. The Company
purchased a three-year policy effective February 1, 1998, which insures the
Company's directors and officers against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the federal securities laws.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Maple Enterprises, Inc. ("Maple") was incorporated under the laws of the
State of Nevada on August 7, 1986. On July 8, 1988, Maple acquired
approximately 99% of the outstanding shares of Warner Technologies, Inc.
("Warner"), a privately held California corporation, in exchange for shares
of common stock and stock options. On September 16, 1988, Warner merged
into Maple, and the name of the surviving company was changed to Warner
Technologies, Inc. Warner Technologies, Inc. provided energy efficiency
products and services in three principal areas: 1) turnkey lighting
retrofits, 2) building automation & control systems, and 3) strategic
energy planning services. These products and services were delivered to
commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings through contracts with
building owners and managers, as well as directly to utilities for their
customers' benefit. Warner Technologies, Inc. was headquartered in Los
Angeles and maintained regional offices in Boston and San Diego.
Effective December 31, 1997, Warner Technologies, Inc. sold substantially
all of its operations to Thomas S. Hathaway and Joseph A. Ferrari, who were
then serving as President and Executive Vice President, respectively, of
Warner Technologies, Inc. On March 31, 1998, Warner Technologies, Inc. was
renamed MGPX Ventures, Inc. (the "Company"), and Messrs. Hathaway and
Ferrari resigned from all of their positions with the Company.
The Company is currently operating as a "shell" corporation, has minimal
operations, and is headquartered in Encino, California. The Company is in
the process of identifying potential merger and acquisition candidates.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. The financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto
included in this registration statement for the fiscal year ended June 30,
1998. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30,
1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1999.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
During the year ended June 30, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share."
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common
shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.
Diluted earnings per share is computed 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 potential
common shares had been issued and if the additional
22
<PAGE>
MGPX VENTURES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
common shares were dilutive. Diluted earnings per share are not
presented for 1998 and 1997 because common stock equivalents are
anti-dilutive.
INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method
of accounting. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is required when it
is less likely than not that the Company will be able to realize all or a
portion of its deferred tax assets.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which is
effective for financial statements with fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. Earlier application is permitted. SFAS No. 130
establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The
Company does not expect adoption of SFAS No. 130 to have a material impact,
if any, on its financial position or results of operations.
The FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise
and Related Information," effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. SFAS No. 131 requires a company to report certain
information about its operating segments including factors used to identify
the reportable segments and types of products and services from which each
reportable segment derives its revenues. The Company does not anticipate
any material change in the manner that it reports its segment information
under this new pronouncement.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Maple Enterprises, Inc. ("Maple") was incorporated under the laws of the
State of Nevada on August 7, 1986. On July 8, 1988, Maple acquired
approximately 99% of the outstanding shares of Warner Technologies, Inc.
("Warner"), a privately held California corporation, in exchange for shares
of common stock and stock options. On September 16, 1988, Warner merged
into Maple, and the name of the surviving company was changed to Warner
Technologies, Inc. Warner Technologies, Inc. provided energy efficiency
products and services in three principal areas: 1) turnkey lighting
retrofits, 2) building automation & control systems, and 3) strategic
energy planning services. These products and services were delivered to
commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings through contracts with
building owners and managers, as well as directly to utilities for their
customers' benefit. Warner Technologies, Inc. was headquartered in Los
Angeles and maintained regional offices in Boston and San Diego.
As more fully described in Note 3, effective December 31, 1997, Warner
Technologies, Inc. sold substantially all of its operations to Thomas S.
Hathaway and Joseph A. Ferrari, who were then serving as President and
Executive Vice President, respectively, of Warner Technologies, Inc. On
March 31, 1998, Warner Technologies, Inc. was renamed MGPX Ventures, Inc.
(the "Company"), and Messrs. Hathaway and Ferrari resigned from all of
their positions with the Company.
The Company is currently operating as a "shell" corporation, has minimal
operations, and is headquartered in Encino, California. The Company is in
the process of identifying potential merger and acquisition candidates.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
EARNINGS PER SHARE
During the year ended June 30, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share."
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common
shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.
Diluted earnings per share is computed 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 potential
common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were
dilutive. Diluted earnings per share are not presented for 1998 and 1997
because common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive.
INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method
of accounting. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred
29

MGPX VENTURES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to
apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences
are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is required
when it is less likely than not that the Company will be able to realize
all or a portion of its deferred tax assets.
ESTIMATES
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements,
as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses included in the
determination of net earnings from continuing operations and discontinued
operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1997 financial statements
to conform with the 1998 presentation and relate primarily to the
presentation of discontinued operations as more fully described in Note 3.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the statements of cash flows the Company considers all
highly-liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The FASB issued SFAS 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which is
effective for financial statements with fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. Earlier application is permitted. SFAS 130 establishes
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The
Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 130 to have a material impact, if
any, on its financial position or results of operations.
The FASB issued SFAS 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information," effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997. SFAS 131 requires a company to report certain information about
its operating segments including factors used to identify the reportable
segments and types of products and services from which each reportable
segment derives its revenues. The Company does not anticipate any material
change in the manner that it reports its segment information under this new
pronouncement.

NOTE 3 - DISPOSAL OF OPERATIONS
Effective December 31, 1997, Warner Technologies, Inc. sold substantially
all of its net assets used in operations to management for $650,000 in
cash. Net proceeds were approximately $585,000 after closing costs. As a
condition of the transaction, management agreed to the cancellation of its
stock options and the sale of their common shares to the Company for
$1,000, representing more than a 25% reduction in beneficial control of
common shares. As a result, the Company's operations through December 31,
1997 are reported as discontinued operations. The results from
discontinued operations included total revenues of approximately $2,605,000
and $3,101,000 and net income (loss) from operations of approximately
$(497,000) and $28,000 for the years ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
Net assets sold to management and the resulting pretax gain were determined
as follows:

NOTE 5 - CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
On December 31, 1992, the Company issued 16,792 shares of Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock at $30.00 per share and 100,752 Class B
Warrants to purchase common stock at exercise prices between $3.00 and
$5.00 per share in a private placement. Each share of Series B Preferred
Stock is convertible at any time, at the option of the holder, into 12
shares of Common Stock. If any holder converts and dividends are accrued
and unpaid on the date of conversion, the Company is required to pay such
dividends within 60 days. The Company has the right to convert Series B
Preferred shares into 12 shares of Common Stock after December 31, 1994, if
the closing bid price of the common stock on any ten consecutive business
days equals or exceeds $4.00 per share, and all quarterly dividends prior
to the date of conversion have been paid.
Series B holders are entitled to receive a cumulative 6% per annum dividend
payable quarterly. Series B shares and Class B Warrants are restricted from
trading in accordance with governing SEC rules and regulations. Series B
shareholders are entitled to preference upon liquidation equal to the
stated value of $30.00 per share plus any accrued but unpaid dividends up
to the time of liquidation, but have no voting rights unless the Company
fails to make two consecutive dividend payments. In that case, Series B
holders would have

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cumulative voting rights equal to three times the number of common shares
into which their preferred shares may be converted.
The Class B Warrants expired on December 31, 1995.
By order of its Board of Directors, the Company deferred payment of the
dividends payable for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 through June 30,
1998. At June 30, 1998, total cumulative unpaid dividends payable were
$45,339.
NOTE 6 - STOCK OPTIONS
From time to time, the Company may grant options to purchase common stock
to employees, officers, directors, and consultants. The options generally
have a two or three year exercise period, and have exercise prices set at
or above the current market value of the common stock at the time the
options are granted. The following table summarizes the Company's stock
option transactions:

</TABLE>
The Company has adopted only the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." It applies Accounting Principles
Bulletin ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees," and related interpretations in accounting for its plans and
does not recognize compensation expense for its stock-based compensation
plans. If the Company had elected to recognize compensation expense based
upon the fair value at the grant date for awards under these plans
consistent with the methodology prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the Company's
net income and earnings per share would be reduced to the pro forma amounts
indicated below:

</TABLE>
These pro forma amounts may not be representative of future disclosures
because they do not take into effect pro forma compensation expense related
to grants made before June 30, 1995. The fair value of these options was
estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model
with the following weighted-average assumptions for the year ended June 30,
1997: dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 150%; risk-free interest
rate of 6%; and expected life of 3 years. The weighted-average per share
fair value of options granted during the year ended June 30, 1997 was
$0.08, and the weighted-average exercise price of options granted during
the year ended June 30, 1997 was $0.50.
The pro forma amounts shown for the year ended June 30, 1998 are equivalent
to the reported amounts because there were no stock options granted during
the year.
