The Board of Directors and Stockholders |
American International Industries, Inc.: |
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of American International Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2000, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month and six-month period ended June 30, 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of American International Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated July 7, 2000, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived. As discussed in Note 3, the Company's financial statements as of June 30, 2000 have been restated to reflect the restatement of the 1999 financial statements. |

AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(1) General
American International Industries, Inc. (the "Company" or "AIII"), formerly Black Tie Affair, Incorporated, operates as a diversified holding company with a number of wholly-owned subsidiaries and one majority-owned subsidiary.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation for each of the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be achieved for full fiscal years.
As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under Regulation S-B, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been condensed and do not contain certain information that will be included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. For further information, refer to the Company's 1999 audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes.
(2) Industry Segments
The Company has three reportable segments and corporate overhead: industrial/commercial, oil and gas, and real estate. The industrial/commercial segment includes (1) a supplier of automotive after-market products; (2) a manufacturer and distributor of barbecue pits and custom sheet metal products for customers predominately in the energy industry; (3) distributors of specialty chemicals for the automotive after-market, including specializing in the application of spray-on bed liners for truck beds; and (4) a holding company for future commercial ventures. The oil and gas segment owns an oil, gas and mineral royalty interest in Washington County, Texas. Prior to 1999, the Company had a media/entertainment segment, which they sold in 1999. The comparative segment information for 1999 had been restated to delete the media entertainment data, which had been treated as a loss from discontinued operations in 1999. The corporate overhead includes the Company's investment holdings including financing current operations and expansion of its current holdings as well as evaluating the feasibility of entering into additional businesses.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates performances based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes, not including nonrecurring gains and losses and foreign exchange gains and losses.
The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different technology and marketing strategies. Most of the businesses were acquired as subsidiaries and the management at the time of the acquisition was retained.
Consolidated net revenues, net operating losses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, and identifiable assets as of June 30, 2000 and 1999, were as follows:
2000 | 1999 | ||

$ 8,395,413 | $ 17,748,279 | ||
The Company's areas of operations are principally in the United States. No single foreign country or geographic area is significant to the consolidated financial statements.
(3) Restatement
The Company's financial statements for six months ended June 30, 2000 have been restated to reflect the restatement of the 1999 financial statements. As noted in Note 3 to the 1999 restated financial statements, certain transactions, which occurred subsequent to December 31, 1999, caused management to reevaluate the collectibility of the consideration received (note receivable in the amount of $250,000) for the sale of CRC and the assumption of liabilities related to CRC.
The effects of the restatement as of June 30, 2000 is a follows:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements; Market Data
As used in this Quarterly Report, the terms "we", "us", "our" "AIII" and the "Company" means American International Industries, Inc., a Nevada corporation. To the extent that we make any forward-looking statements in the "Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Quarterly Report, we emphasize that forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and our actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect our current views about future events and are based on assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements, which forward-looking statements may include, but not be limited to, statements about our plans, objectives, expectations, intentions and assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. Generally, forward-looking statements include phrases with words such as "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "plan", "believe", "seek", "estimate" and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.
Overview
We are a holding company and currently have six wholly owned operating subsidiaries and one majority-owned (consolidating) subsidiary. The historical financial statements of AIII include the acquisitions of acquired companies as of the effective dates of the purchases and the results of these companies subsequent to closing, as these transactions were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.The acquisitions of certain subsidiaries were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, whereby the purchase price of the acquisition was allocated based on the fair market value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the purchase price exceeded the net fair market value of the assets acquired, any remaining purchase price was allocated to goodwill. In addition, certain subsidiaries were accounted for using the historical cost basis of the predecessor. Reference is made to our Form 10-KSB/A for our year ended December 31, 1999 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on December 15, 2000 for a full discussion of our business and subsidiaries under "Description of Business" and Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements which were filed as part of the Form 10-KSB/A.
We have three reportable segments and corporate overhead: industrial/commercial, oil and gas, and real estate. The industrial/commercial segment includes (1) a supplier of automotive after-market products; (2) a manufacturer and distributor of barbecue pits and custom sheet metal products for customers predominately in the energy industry; (3) distributors of specialty chemicals for the automotive after-market, including specializing in the application of spray-on bed liners for truck beds; and (4) a holding company for future commercial ventures. The oil and gas segment owns an oil, gas and mineral royalty interest in Washington County, Texas. Prior to 1999,we had a media/entertainment segment, which we sold in 1999. The comparative segment information for 1999 had been restated to delete the media entertainment data, which had been treated as a loss from discontinued operations in 1999. The corporate overhead includes our investment holdings including financing current operations and expansion of its current holdings as well as evaluating the feasibility of entering into additional businesses. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. We evaluate performances based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes, not including nonrecurring gains and losses and foreign exchange gains and losses. Our discussion under "Results of Operations" and "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below is on a consolidated basis. For reference to "Industry Segments" see Note 2 to the Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements in Item 1, Consolidated Financial Statements above.
Results of Operations - American International Industries, Inc. Consolidated
This Form 10-QSB/A for June 30, 2000 contains revised financial statements and a revised discussion under Management's Discussion and Analysis-Liquidity and Capital Resources.
We have made adjustments in this Form-10QSB/A for the period ended June 30, 2000 from the initial report for this period which was filed in August 2000. These adjustments were deemed necessary because of the timing of the application of the certificate of deposit of $1 million and our reevaluation of the collectibility of the $250,000 note receivable from Cinema Research Corporation ("CRC"). These events should have been reflected in the Company's Form 10-QSB for the period ended June 30, 2000 which was filed in August 2000.
The Company has also restated - see Note 3, Restatement, to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - the financial statements regarding the reevaluation by the Company of the CRC disposition (See also note 17 - Restatement in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Form 10-KSB/A filed on December 15, 2000). The Company determined that the Company has no recourse to recover CRC and as a result the sale has been treated as final. Nevertheless, because of the serious doubts about the collectibility of the notes receivable, the liability portion of the Consolidated Balance Sheet, as restated, (see Note 3 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements) reflects an allowance of $1,200,000 for the long-term note receivable of $1,200,000 and a write-off and reduction of the current notes receivable of $250,000. The Consolidated Statement of Operations, as restated, contains therefore an additional loss from discontinued operations in the amount of $1,450,000.
Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 1999
For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company's revenues decrease from $7,902,564 to $7,063,115 and for the three-month periods decreased from $4,845,862 to $3,865,112. The revenues for the six months and three months ended June 30, 2000 decreased by $839,449 or 10.6% and $980,750 or 20.2%, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior years. The decrease in revenue was primarily the result of decreasing sales of approximately $921,000 at our subsidiary NPI for the six months ended June 30, 2000.
Cost of goods sold for the six and three months ended June 30, 2000 decreased by $174,887 or 2.8% and by $808,567 or 19.5%, respectively, over the same periods in the prior year. The total cost of goods sold for the six-month periods decreased from $6,150,020 to $5,975,133 and for the three-month period from $4,137,910 to $3,329,343. The decrease in cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was primarily attributable to a decrease in sales at NPI. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased over the six-month periods from 77.8% to 84.6%. This increase is primarily due to the sale of an option to purchase real estate in 1999. The cost of the option ($100,000) was recorded in 1998 and the sale of the option actually occurred in February 1999 for a price of $600,000. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased by 85.4% to 86.1% for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of management, clerical and administrative salaries and professional services. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six and three months ended June 30, 2000 decreased by $540,086 or 26.6% and decreased by $538,594 or 41.8% over the comparable periods the the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales decreased from 25.7% to 21.1% for the comparable six-month periods and decreased from 26.7% to 19.4% for the comparable three-month periods. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months and three months periods ended June 30, 2000 was attributable to the decrease in the cost of auditing and accounting services incurred during these periods in 2000.
Operating losses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased by $124,476 compared to the same period in 1999. Operating losses for the three months ended June 30, 2000 decreased by $366,411 over the same period in 1999.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's operations have been financed principally through internal growth and liquid assets on hand. At June 30, 2000, the Company's working capital was $528,163.
Net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2000 of $1,496,874 was primarily due to the Company paying-off two notes ($1,000,000 and $200,000) that were the liabilities of CRC. The Company's bank required us to apply the $1,000,000 restricted certificate of deposit to pay-off one of the notes. (see Note 3 - Restatement in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements)
Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2000 of $1,110,325 was primarily due to the redemption of restricted certificates of deposit in the amount of $1,150,000 to pay-off notes to banks.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2000 of $137,677 was primarily due to receipts of proceeds from the sale of the Company's common stock in the amount of $72,000 and the reduction of a note receivable in the amount of $88,765.
The Company believes that internally generated funds and the available borrowings under its exiting credit facilities will provide sufficient liquidity and enable it to meet current and foreseeable working capital requirements.

None, reference is made to Item 3. in Part I of the amended Form 10-KSB filed on December 15, 2000.
Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds
The following information sets forth certain information as of December 12, 2000, for all securities the Company sold since March 31, 2000, without registration under the Act, excluding any information "previously reported as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. There were no underwriters in any of these transactions, nor were any sales commissions paid thereon.
1. In May 2000 the Company entered into transactions involving the sale of restricted shares of Common Stock to Elk, a company controlled by Daniel Dror's brother, but of which Mr. Dror disclaims any beneficial ownership or interest, and Elk also converted debt into equity as discussed in 2(i) below.
In June 2000 the Company also sold restricted shares of Common Stock to the Daniel Dror II Trust of 1998 as discussed in 2(ii) below. These transactions were for the purpose of providing the Company with additional working capital and improving debt to equity ratios, as follows:
2 (i) On May 17, 2000 the Company and Elk agreed that Elk would convert $250,000 of debt owed to Elk into 15,000,000 restricted shares of Common Stock, which conversion was based upon a price of $.0166 per share. On December 12, 2000 the conversion price was adjusted to $.04 per share effective as of May 17, 2000, based upon the closing price of the Company's Common Stock on May 17, 2000. As a result the number of shares issued to Elk upon the conversion was adjusted from 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock to 6,250,000 shares of Common Stock. In addition, on May 17, 2000 the Company sold to Elk 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock for cash consideration of $250,000 or $.0166 per share, which was paid to the Company prior to September 30, 2000. The price per share of this transaction was also adjusted on December 12, 2000 as of May 17, 2000 to a price of $.04 per share, the closing price on May 17, 2000. As a result, the number of shares sold in this transaction was adjusted from 15,000,000 shares to 6,250,000 shares. The Company and Elk agreed to a two-year lock-up of the restricted shares without registration rights and the waiver of the availability to Elk of Rule 144 under the Act to resell these shares. In addition, in a separate letter commitment dated on May 17, 2000 Elk gave the Company a one-year commitment to loan up to $500,000, which commitment provided for an interest rate of 8% per annum to be funded from time to time by Elk in amounts necessary to assist the Company in its working capital requirements. The commitment if funded by Elk will be evidenced by an 8% note or at the option of Elk and at December 12, 2000 Elk and the Company agreed that there will be no conversion feature applicable to the loan if funded. See Note 16, Subsequent Events, to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements; and
(ii) On June 12, 2000 the Company sold to the Daniel Dror II Trust of 1998 10,000,000 restricted shares of Common Stock for cash consideration of $200,000 or a purchase price of $0.02 per share. The price of the shares of Common Stock reported on the pink sheets on June 12, 2000 was approximately $.055 per share. The Company and the Daniel Dror II Trust of 1998 agreed to a two-year lock-up of the restricted shares, without registration rights or the availability of Rule 144 under the Act to sell the shares. The price per share of this transaction was also adjusted on December 12, 2000 as of June 12, 2000 to a price of $.055 per share, the price on May 17, 2000. As a result, the number of shares sold in this transaction was adjusted from 10,000,000 shares to 3,636,363 shares. Further, in a separate letter commitment dated June 12, 2000 the Daniel Dror II Trust of 1998 gave the Company a one-year commitment to loan the Company up to $200,000, which commitment provided for an interest rate of 8% per annum to be funded from time to time by the Daniel Dror Trust II of 1998 in amounts necessary to assist the Company in its working capital requirements. The commitment if funded by the Trust will be evidenced by an 8% note and at December 12, 2000 the Trust and the Company agreed that there will be no conversion feature applicable to the loan if funded. See Note 16, Subsequent Events, to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company believes that the transactions with Elk and the Daniel Dror II of 1998 are as fair as those obtainable from independent third parties, if in fact, any funding was available from independent third parties. Further, following the delisting of the Company's Common Stock from the OTC:BB on November 4, 1999, the Company was not readily able to secure financing from non-affiliates at satisfactory terms and conditions and had to rely upon transactions with related and affiliated parties to secure financing, principally through the sale of the restricted shares of Common Stock and the conversion of debt into restricted shares.
The Company believes transactions in (1) through (2) were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act as privately negotiated, isolated, non-recurring transactions not involving any public solicitation. All of the recipients were either: (a) accredited investors due to their positions with the Company as officers and directors, or (b) sophisticated persons with specific knowledge of the Company and with general expertise in financial and business matters that they were able to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company.

DESCRIPTION OF EXHIBITS
EXHIBIT 99.1PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 SAFE HARBOR COMPLIANCE STATEMENT FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
In passing the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Reform Act"), 15 U.S.C.A. Sections 77z-2 and 78u-5 (Supp. 1996), Congress encouraged public companies to make "forward-looking statements" by creating a safe harbor to protect companies from securities law liability in connection with forward-looking statements. Fifth Avenue Acquisition I Corp. ("the Company") intends to qualify both its written and oral forward-looking statements for protection under the Reform Act and any other similar safe harbor provisions.
"Forward-looking statements" are defined by the Reform Act. Generally, forward-looking statements include expressed expectations of future events and the assumptions on which the expressed expectations are based. All forward- looking statements are inherently uncertain as they are based on various expectations and assumptions concerning future events and they are subject to numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties which could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those projected. Due to those uncertainties and risks, the investment community is urged not to place undue reliance on written or oral forward-looking statements of the Company. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise this Safe Harbor Compliance Statement for Forward-Looking Statements (the "Safe Harbor Statement") to reflect future developments. In addition, the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time.
The Company provides the following risk factor disclosure in connection with its continuing effort to qualify its written and oral forward-looking statements for the safe harbor protection of the Reform Act and any other similar safe harbor provisions. Important factors currently known to management that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include the following:
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
THIS FORM 10-QSB/A AND OTHER STATEMENTS ISSUED OR MADE FROM TIME TO TIME BY AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL INDUSTRIES INC. OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES CONTAIN STATEMENTS WHICH MAY CONSTITUTE "FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS" WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT") AND THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 (THE "EXCHANGE ACT") BY THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995. 15 U.S.C.A. SECTIONS 77Z-2 AND 78U-5 (SUPP. 1996). THOSE STATEMENTS INCLUDE STATEMENTS REGARDING THE INTENT, BELIEF OR CURRENT EXPECTATIONS OF THE COMPANY AND MEMBERS OF ITS MANAGEMENT TEAM AS WELL AS THE ASSUMPTIONS ON WHICH SUCH STATEMENTS ARE BASED. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS ARE CAUTIONED THAT ANY SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE NOT GUARANTEES OF FUTURE PERFORMANCE AND INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, AND THAT ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE CONTEMPLATED BY SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THE COMPANY UNDERTAKES NO OBLIGATION TO UPDATE OR REVISE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS TO REFLECT CHANGED ASSUMPTIONS, THE OCCURRENCE OF UNANTICIPATED EVENTS OR CHANGES TO FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS OVER TIME.
