Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
American Inflatables, Inc. (the "Company") (a Delaware Corporation) which
provides, manufactures, and markets alternative advertising products such as
inflatables, blimps, and other custom inflatable products.
Prior to December 27, 1999 (the merger date) the Company operated as Can/Am
Marketing Group, LLC. On the merger date, the Company completed a "reverse
merger" transaction and changed its name to American Inflatables, Inc. This
"reverse merger" has been accounted for as an equity transaction. The Company's
historical financial statements are those of Can/Am Marketing Group, LLC.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING. The Company uses the accrual method of accounting and
prepares and presents financial statements that conform to generally accepted
accounting principles. The preparation of 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 financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements
and related notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments consisting of a normal recurring nature and considered necessary for
a fair presentation have been included. It is suggested that these financial
statements are read in conjunction with the annual financial statements and
notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1999. The results of operations
for the three- (3) month and nine- (9) month periods ended September 30, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the year ended
December 31, 2000.
RECLASSIFICATIONS. Certain September 30, 1999 balances have been reclassified to
conform to the September 30, 2000 financial statement presentation.
INVENTORY. Finished goods and raw materials are valued at the lower of cost
(first in first out) or market, work-in-process, consisting of labor, materials,
and overhead on partially completed projects, are recorded at cost but not in
excess of net realizable value.
PROPERTY, PLANT, AND EQUIPMENT. Property, plant, and equipment are stated at
cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets, which generally range from three (3) years for
computer software to seven (7) years for equipment. Leasehold improvements are
amortized on a straight-line method over ten (10) years.
7
<PAGE>
REVENUE AND EXPENSE RECOGNITION. Revenue from product sales are generated
primarily from the manufacturing and selling of advertising products, which
consist of inflatable blimps and other custom inflatables. The period of time
from initial order to final shipment of the product typically ranges from seven
(7) to ten (10) days. Revenue is recognized when the Company ships the product
to the client.
Expenses are recorded when incurred.
ADVERTISING. The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising
to expense as incurred. The Company's significant advertising expenses are trade
show costs. The Company depreciates the tradeshow blimps over sixty (60) months.
INCOME TAXES. The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes. "
3. INVENTORY
Inventories as of September 30, 2000, by major classification, were as follows:
Finished goods.......................................$ 23,100
Work-in-process........................................26,486
Raw materials......................................... 41,500
--------
$ 91,086
========
Inventory is valued using the first in first out ("FIFO") method.
4. NOTES PAYABLE
Convertible notes in the amount of $300,000 were converted into common shares at
$1.00 per hare as of September 30, 2000.
5. GOING CONCERN
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted
accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the
realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of
business. The Company has sustained significant losses and has a negative
working capital. Without the realization of additional capital, it may be
unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.
6. LEASES
The Company leases a combination of offices and production facility in Costa
Mesa, California totaling 10,000 square feet. The lease is accounted for as an
operating lease, under the terms of a one- (1) year lease with ten (10) one- (1)
year consecutive renewal options.

<PAGE>
7. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133"), "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. " This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments, including some derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
derivatives), and for other hedging activities. The Company will adopt SFAS 133
in Fiscal 2001, in accordance with SFAS 137, which deferred the effective date
of SFAS 133. The adoption of this standard in Fiscal 2001 is not expected to
have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB
Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock
Compensation--an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25" ("FIN 44"). FIN 44
clarifies the application of APB No. 25 to certain issues including: the
definition of an employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion 25; the criteria
for determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan; the
accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of previously fixed
stock options or awards; and the accounting for the exchange of stock
compensation awards in a business combination. FIN 44 is effective July 1, 2000,
but certain conclusions in FIN 44 are applicable retroactively to specific
events occurring after either December 15, 1998 or January 12, 2000. The Company
does not expect the application of FIN 44 to have a material impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.

Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company has authorized 20,000,000 shares of $0.01 par value common stock. As
of November 1, 2000 there were 8,475,330 shares issued and outstanding.
THREE (3) MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE (3) MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1999
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. net sales were $612,961 for the three (3) months ended
September 30, 2000, an increase of $408,575 or 199% compared to net sales of
$204,386 for the three (3) months ended September 30, 1999. The increase in
sales is due to the Company increasing its customer base. Sales for the Company
continues to grow at an increasing rate not just from repeat customers but from
new customers. The Company continues to increase its presence and exposure in
the advertising markets through increased attendance at trade shows and other
advertising mediums that provide greater exposure. The Company is currently on
aggressive growth strategy that may include entering new lines and products, and
identified various businesses that would compliment the Company's core business.
Gross margin for three (3) months ended September 30, 2000 was 59%, compared to
83% for the three (3) months ended September 30, 1999. The Company earned
$363,728 in the three (3) months ended September 30, 1999. The increase in net
sales and production efficiencies contribute to the gross margin as a percentage
of sales. The Company through its use of higher quality materials for production
which it believes decreases replacements and warranty coverage, provides a
stronger and more durable product for sale to the customer and consumer. During
Fiscal 1999 and the first quarter of Fiscal 2000 the Company ramped up and
increased production and manufacturing staff, in order to increase sales,
enabling the Company to fully utilize its production staff to increase gross
margins. This is evident by the Company's continuing ability to increase its
sales and maintain a production facility that keeps up with this growth. The
Company has begun to allocate a larger portion of its staffing to production and
has incurred a positive learning curve on the productivity of staff utilization.
The Company's marketing expense (which consists of sales expense, marketing
costs and trade show expense) totaled $132,316 for the three (3) months ended
September 30, 2000 compared to $58,258 for the three (3) months ended September
30, 1999, an increase of $74,058 or 127%. The Company during Fiscal 1999
increased its trade show presence 700% fold from Fiscal 1998 and continues to
increase its trade show presence into 2000. Management believes that the
additional trade show costs associated with this presence will be realized in
increased sales over the next year as evidenced by the Company's nine (9) months
of sales for Fiscal 2000.
The Company's total general and administrative expenses (less marketing expense)
increased by $22,913 for the three (3) months ended September 30, 2000. This
increase is due to the additional infrastructure necessary to support its
growing revenues.
10
<PAGE>
NINE (9) MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO NINE (9) MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1999
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. Net sales were $1,453,317 for the nine (9) months ended
September 30, 2000, an increase of $653,945 or 81% compared to net sales of
$799,386 for the nine (9) months ended September 30, 1999. The increase in sales
is due to the Company increasing its customer base and new products. Sales for
the Company still continue to grow at an increasing rate not just from repeat
customers but from new customers. The Company continues to increase its presence
and exposure in the advertising markets through increased attendance at trade
shows and other advertising mediums that provide greater exposure. The Company
is currently pursuing an aggressive growth strategy that may include entering
new lines and products, and through the acquisition of complimentary businesses.
The Company has identified various businesses that would compliment the
Company's core business.
Gross margin for the nine (9) months ended September 30, 2000 was 50%, compared
to 58% for the nine (9) months ended September 30, 1999. The Company earned
gross margin of $737,082 in the nine (9) months ended September 30, 1999. The
increase in net sales and production efficiencies, still contribute to the gross
margin as a percentage of sales. The Company through its use of higher quality
materials for production which it believes decreases replacements and warranty
coverage, provides a stronger and more durable product for sale to the customer
and consumer. During Fiscal 1999 and the first quarter of Fiscal 2000 the
Company ramped up and increased production and manufacturing staff, in order to
increase sales, enabling the Company to fully utilize its production staff to
increase gross margins. This is evident by the Company's continuing ability to
increase its sales and maintain a production facility that keeps up with this
growth. The Company has begun to allocate a larger portion of its staffing to
the production and has incurred a positive learning curve on the productivity of
staff utilization.
The Company's marketing expense (which consists of sales expense, marketing
costs, and trade show expense) totaled $356,638 for the nine (9) months ended
September 30, 2000 compared to $126,258 for the nine (9) months ended September
30, 1999, an increase of $230,569 or 182%. The Company during Fiscal 1999
increased its trade show presence 700% fold from Fiscal 1998 and continues to
increase its trade show presence into 2000. Management believes that the
additional trade show costs associated with this presence will be realized in
increased sales over the next year as evidenced by the Company's nine (9) months
of sales for Fiscal 2000.
The Company's total general and administrative expenses (less marketing expense)
increased by almost $2,000,000 for the nine (9) months ended September 30, 2000.
These costs were primarily due to the Company entering into various consulting
agreements to pursue merger and acquisition candidates and other representative
functions. The Company believes these expenses of this size and magnitude to be
one time occurrences and charges to operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At September 30, 2000, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $74,275, an
increase of $73,557 from $900 at December 31, 1999.
Cash used in operating activities was $343,547 during the nine- (9) month period
ended September 30, 2000. Use of cash in operating activities consisted mainly
of the net loss for the nine- (9) month period of $2,115,433, the offsetting
effects of depreciation and amortization of $45,144, a non-cash issuance of
stock for services of $1,122,700, and fluctuations in certain assets and
liabilities.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine- (9) month period ended
September 30, 2000 was $332,216, consisting principally of the proceeds from the
issuance of common stock.
To date, the Company has not invested in derivative securities or any other
financial instruments that involve a high level of complexity or risk. Cash has
been, and the Company contemplates that it will continue to be, used for general
operating purposes.
From time to time, the Company may evaluate potential acquisitions of products,
businesses, and technologies that may complement or expand the Company's
business. Any such transactions consummated may use a portion of the Company's
working capital and/or require the issuance of equity or debt.
The Company believes that its current cash and cash equivalent balance along
with the additional financing is insufficient to meet its working capital
expenditures through the near term and will require the Company in seeking
additional capital and/or equity. The Company is currently exploring various
financing and credit facilities and continues to conduct a private placement of
its securities.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133"), "Accounting for Derivative

of SFAS 133. The adoption of this standard in Fiscal 2001 is not expected to
have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
