Independent Auditors’ Letter

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 March 31, 2000, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation'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 4, the Company's financial statements as of March 31, 2000 have been restated to reflect the restatement of the 1999 financial statements.

/s/ R. B. Bassie & Co., P.C.

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 Rules of 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 reflects media entertainment data prior to restatement. 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, and identifiable assets were as follows:

   Corporate 683,879 2,304,082
$ 10,253,248 $ 15,526,605

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) Subsequent Events

In May 2000, the Company sold 12,500,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock to a company controlled by the brother of the CEO of AIII for total consideration of $500,000. Of this amount, $250,000 was paid by conversion of an existing debt. The Company received cash for the remaining $250,000. The company that purchased the restricted common stock agreed to a two-year lock-up agreement whereby the stock is restricted for a two-year period, without registration rights. In addition, the Company received a 12-month commitment to borrow up to $500,000 for working capital requirements.

In June 2000, the Company sold 3,636,363 shares of the Company's restricted common stock to a trust established for the benefit of the son of the Company's CEO for a total purchase price of $200,000.

(4) Restatement

The Company's financial statements for three months ended March 31, 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 March 31, 2000 is a follows:

As previously As
reported Changes restated
Consolidated Balance Sheet:
   Notes receivable, current $ 440,458 $ (250,000) $ 190,458
   Note receivable, long-term - 1,200,000 1,200,000
   Allowance for long-term note receivable - (1,200,000) (1,200,000)

   Minority interest 70,298 (70,298) -
   Accumulated deficit (10,703,721) (1,450,000) (12,153,721)

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 "Management’s 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 for the year ended December 31, 1999.

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

The following defined terms are used in this Quarterly Report: Northeastern Plastics, Inc. (NPI), Marald, Inc.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended March 3, 1999

Consolidated net earnings for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 was $97,957 as compared to $41,275 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The factors contributing to the consolidated net earning are discussed below.

Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $3,198,003 as compared to $4,214,020 for March 31, 1999. Such 24.3% decrease is primarily due to discontinued operations of CRC at October 31, 1999. CRC had sales of $1,157,317 during the period ended March 31, 1999. TREE had no revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000, compared to revenue of $600,000 for the same period in the prior year. NPI had sales of $1,887,967 during the period ended March 31, 2000 as compared to $1,545,390 for the same period ended March 31, 1999. Marald had sales of $561,432 during the period ended March 31, 2000 compared to $472,866 during the same period in the prior year. Armor Linings, acquired in April 1999, had sales of $188,907 during the three month-month period ended March 31, 2000. Har-Whit sales for the three months ended March 31, 2000 were $550,790 as compared to $438,447 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Brenham reported royalty income of $2,553 in the current quarter. The activity of Acqueren during the three months ended March 31, 2000 consisted of investments and trading in various securities; such activities resulted in unrealized gains of $258,374 and a loss $91,398 during the period ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was approximately 83% with gross margin of 17%, as compared to approximately 69.6% cost of sales and 30.4% gross margin during the three-month period ended March 31, 1999. The change is primarily due to NPI's gross margin of 7.9% during this quarter as compared to 16.9% during the three months ended March 31, 1999. Har-Whit sustained a 31.4% margin in 2000 as compared to 30.4% in 1999. Marald posted margins averaging 32.5% during the quarter and Armor Linings sustained margins averaging 18% at March 31, 2000.

Selling, general and administrative expenses during the period ended March 31, 2000 were $736,636 which compares to $1,191,505 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. This decrease is primarily the result of discontinued operations of CRC, which had operating expenses during the three month period ended March 31, 1999 of $453,377. Armor Linings incurred $57,704 in operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2000. AIII incurred corporate expenses of $196,785, including $69,704 of legal and accounting fees and $25,000 of goodwill compared to total corporate expenses of $246,029 during the same quarter in the prior year. This represents a decrease of 20%.

Other income (expense) totaled $282,380 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 including interest income of $22,985, Acqueren's realized and unrealized gains on investments of $47,371 and $258,374, other income of $2,915 and $49,265 of interest expense. This compares to total other income (expense) for the three-month period ended March 31, 1999 of $(46,775). The primary reason for the difference is Acqueren's unrealized gain for the quarter as compared to an unrealized loss of $91,398 for the three-month period ended March 31, 1999.

Net Earnings and Comprehensive Income

Consolidated net earnings for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 was $97,957 as compared to $41,275 during the period ended March 31, 1999. During the three months ended March 31, 2000, TREE had a net loss of $6,945, Brenham had net earnings of $2,517, Har-Whit had a net loss of $11,763, Armor Linings had a net loss of $24,094, and Marald had net earnings of $16,151. Acqueren (including NPI) had net earnings of $309,675. There was no adjustment from net earnings to comprehensive income, since there were no unrealized gain on securities available-for-sale in this quarter, . During the three month period ended March 31, 1999, comprehensive income included Acqueren's unrealized gains of $968,828 on available-for-sale equity securities, which were included as a component of stockholders' equity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources - AIII

Total assets at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 were $10,253,248 and $10,158,514, respectively, an insignificant increase. Total liabilities at March 31, 2000 were $5,882,182 as compared to $5,925,405 at December 31, 1999. The decrease is primarily the result of the required reductions of long-term debt.

At March 31, 2000, AIII's current working capital was $819,962 as compared to $657,207 at December 31, 1999. The increase in working capital is attributable to an insignificant increase in current assets. AIII's consolidated cash position at March 31, 2000 was $791,042 as compared to $639,396 at December 31, 1999. Accounts receivable at March 31, 2000 were $1,628,589 compared to $1,609,561 at December 31, 1999.
