WELLSPRING INVESTMENTS, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
Wellspring Investments, Inc. (the Company) is a developmental stage
enterprise incorporated on October 24, 1994 under the laws of the State of
Delaware. The Company intends to seek acquisitions or other business endeavors.
The Company has had no operations to date and its activities have been limited
to organization efforts related to obtaining initial financing. The Company
intends to purchase, merge with or acquire securities or assets held by target
entities via an exchange of the targeted company's securities or assets for the
Company's cash, securities and/or assets. The Company has not negotiated with
or identified a prospective acquisition candidate and has not targeted any
particular business or industry within which it will seek acquisitions. The
Company's fiscal year end is December 31.
The unaudited financial statements and notes are presented as
permitted by Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles may have been omitted.
Note 2 Related Parties.
The Company has retained the law firm of its President and majority
shareholder, The Law Offices of M. Richard Cutler, to serve as the Company's
corporate and securities counsel. Mr. Cutler will charge the Company his usual
and customary rates for legal services rendered to the Company. During fiscal
1998, Mr. Cutler prepared the Company's private placement offering and was paid
an attorney's fee of $10,000 in January 1999 from the Company's private
placement proceeds. This amount was accrued, outstanding and deferred as costs
related to the stock issuance as of December 31, 1998.
Mr. Lebrecht, the Company's vice president, owns 190,150 shares of the
Company's common stock and is also employed by The Law Offices of M. Richard
Cutler.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
The Company's activities since inception have been limited to
organizational matters, and the Company has not engaged in any operating
activity since its inception.
The Company has registered its common stock on a Form 10-SB registration
statement filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange
Act") and Rule 12(g) thereof. The Company files with the Securities and
Exchange Commission periodic reports under Rule 13(a) of the Exchange Act,
including quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB and annual reports on Form 10-KSB.
As a reporting company under the Exchange Act, the Company may register
additional securities on Form S-8 (provided that it is then in compliance with
the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act) and on Form S-3 (provided that
is has during the prior 12 month period timely filed all reports required under
the Exchange Act), and its class of common stock registered under the Exchange
Act may be traded in the United States securities markets provided that the
Company is then in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations,
including compliance with its reporting requirements under the Exchange Act.
The Company was formed to engage in a merger with or acquisition of an
unidentified foreign or domestic private company which desires to become a
reporting ("public") company whose securities are qualified for trading in the
United States secondary market. The Company meets the definition of a "blank
check" company contained in Section 7(b)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
Management believes that there are perceived benefits to being a reporting
company with a class of publicly-traded securities which may be attractive to
foreign and domestic private companies.
These benefits are commonly thought to include (1) the ability to use
registered securities to make acquisition of assets or businesses; (2) increased
visibility in the financial community; (3) the facilitation of borrowing from
financial institutions; (4) improved trading efficiency; (5) shareholder
liquidity; (6) greater ease in subsequently raising capital; (7) compensation of
key employees through options for stock for which there is a public market; (8)
enhanced corporate image; and, (9) a presence in the United States capital
market.
A private company which may be interested in a business combination with
the Company may include (1) a Company for which a primary purpose of becoming
public is the use of its securities for the acquisition of assets or businesses;
(2) a company which is unable to find an underwriter of its securities or is
unable to find an underwrite of securities on terms acceptable to it; (3) a
company which wishes to become public with less dilution of its common stock
than would occur normally upon an underwriting; (4) a company which believes
that is will be able to obtain investment capital on more favorable terms after
it has become public; (5) a foreign company which may wish an initial entry into
the United States securities market; (6) a special situation company, such as a
company seeking a public market to satisfy redemption requirements under a
qualified Employee Stock Option Plan; and, (7) a company seeking one or more of
the other benefits believed to attach to a public company.

<PAGE>
The Company is authorized to enter into a definitive agreement with a wide
variety of private businesses without limitation as to their industry or
revenues. It is not possible at this time to predict with which private
company, if any, the Company will enter into a definitive agreement or what will
be the industry, operating history, revenues, future prospects or other
characteristics of that company.
As of the date hereof, management has not made any final decision
concerning or entered into any agreements for a business combination. When any
such agreement is reached or other material fact occurs, the Company will file
notice of such agreement or fact with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
Form 8-K. Persons reading this Form 10-QSB are advised to see if the Company
has subsequently filed a Form 8-K.
Each of the current shareholders of the Company have agreed not to sell or
otherwise transfer any of their common stock of the Company until after such
time as the Company has completed a business combination transaction.
As soon as the Company is eligible, it intends to apply to have its common
stock listed or admitted to quotation on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board or, if it
meets the financial and other requirements thereof, on the Nasdaq Small Cap
Market, National Market System, or other regional or national exchange.
Liquidity
In January 1999, the Company completed a private placement of 5,000 Units,
each Unit consisting of one share of Series A Preferred Stock and one common
stock purchase warrant. The net proceeds to the Company was $30,000, of which
$20,000 went to the Company's President and securities counsel for legal
services related to the offering and the drafting and filing of a Form 10-SB
Registration Statement.
Other than the balance of the funds from the private placement, the Company
has no other funds available and does not anticipate having any funds available
until a merger transaction is consummated. In the event that no transaction is
consummated, the Company will have a very limited amount of funds with which to
operate and may not be able to operate in the future.
