NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 1999, October 31, 1998 and April 30, 1999
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONS - Caribbean Ventures, Inc. was incorporated in the
State of Nevada on April 28, 1997 and is authorized to do business in the United
States. On July 1, 1998, the Board of Directors decided to change the name from
Dom Caribe, Ltd., to Caribbean Ventures, Inc. The Board of Directors also
decided to restate the Articles of Incorporation. The changes were adopted and
approved by a majority vote of the shareholders necessary to constitute a quorum
according to the Bylaws of the Corporation and filed with the Secretary of State
of Nevada on July 17th, 1998. The Company has no revenue from operations during
the period covered by this financial statement.
METHOD OF ACCOUNTING - These financial statements are prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Consequently, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized
when the obligation is actually incurred.
INCOME TAXES AND CASH FLOWS - The Company accounts for income taxes and the
statement of cash flows in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement No. 109 and No. 95.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid
investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.
NOTE 2. CASH
The Company has no bank accounts at this time.
NOTE 3 - ORGANIZATION COSTS
The Company incurred organization costs in the amount of $500 in April, 1997.
These costs were being amortized on a straight-line basis over a five year
period through April 30, 1999 after which time Statement of Position 98-5 as
discussed in Note 8 was adopted.
NOTE 4 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share has been computed by dividing net income/(loss) by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. There are
no items which are deemed to be common stock equivalents during the period.

(continued)
NOTE 5 - COMMON STOCK
The Company had 3,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, issued and
outstanding as of April 30, 1999. The stock was issued for maintaining the
entity and reviewing potential business opportunities.
As of October 31, 1999, the Company had 3,000,000 shares of common stock, par
value $0.001, issued and outstanding.
NOTE 6 - LEASE COMMITMENTS
The Company currently has no commitments for leases or contingencies.
NOTE 7 - USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results
could differ from these estimates.
NOTE 8 - ACCOUNTING CHANGE
Effective May 1, 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position 98-5. As a
result of this change the Company expensed $299 of unamortized organizational
costs during the current period.

ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATION
The Company has not commenced business activities and has no assets or
operations. The Company is dependent upon its officers to meet any incidental
costs, which may occur.
Earl P. Gilbrech, an officer and director of the Company, has agreed to provide
the necessary funds, without interest, for the Company to comply with the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, provided that he is an officer and
director of the Company when the obligation is incurred. All advances are
interest-free.
In addition, since the Company has had no operating history nor any revenues or
earnings from operations, with no significant assets or financial resources, the
Company will in all likelihood sustain operating expenses without corresponding
revenues, at least until the acquisition of a property or property. This may
result in the Company incurring a net operating loss which will increase
continuously until the Company can consummate the acquisition of a property or
project with a profitable opportunity. There is no assurance that the Company
can identify such an acquisition property or project.
