PART I

ITEM 1 -- BUSINESS.

Business Development and Summary of The Regency Group Limited, Inc.

We are a Nevada corporation incorporated on February 1, 1999, and are a developmental stage company with a principal business objective to become a leading online information and marketing services firm. We seek to offer our corporate clients the ability to gain maximum exposure via the Internet. As an online corporate marketing services firm, we believe we can assist corporations in enhancing product exposure and improving profitability for their online sales division. Our activities to date have been limited primarily to organization, initial capitalization, finding and securing an appropriate, experienced management team and board of directors, development of a business plan, purchase and installation of computer servers, and initial web site development.

At the time of this filing, we have two products that we plan to offer to our customers once the development and testing of our web site is completed:

  • Market Find-R - A software package that integrates database development tools with automated Internet research capabilities. This package would allow users to identify Internet search engines most relevant to their interests, and to submit reference information to such engines automatically.
  • Market Mine-R - An e-commerce / shopping cart technology package.

In addition to our products, we will offer clients the following services: web-site hosting and maintenance, database development and maintenance, and operation of web-based "store fronts" (selling of merchandise and collection of payments). Since our designated promotion and advertising tool is our future web site, we are delaying the offering of these services until our web site is fully functional.

We intend to use technology to deliver an outstanding service offering and to achieve the significant economies inherent in the online store model. Our strategy is to pursue strategic acquisitions and alliances, exploit international opportunities, promote repeat purchases, attract, train and retain employees, build strong brand recognition, customer loyalty and supplier relationships, while creating an economic model that is superior to that of the capital and personnel-intensive direct response marketing industry.

We intend on providing a new category of professional services called eBusiness systems innovation. eBusinesses are businesses that employ the reach and efficiency of the Internet to enable companies strengthen relationships with customers and business partners, create new revenue opportunities, reduce costs, improve operating efficiencies, shorten cycle times and improve communications. As an eBusiness systems innovator, we will provide integrated eBusiness strategy and technology implementation services to clients who are creating eBusinesses or are rethinking or expanding their existing businesses to integrate eBusiness capabilities. These services will include strategy consulting, customer experience design, systems architecture, and application and technology infrastructure development. We intend to provide a framework for each stage of a client's Internet strategy from helping the client conceive its strategy to designing, engineering and extending its eBusiness. We believe that our approach will allow us to deliver reliable, robust, secure, scalable and extensible eBusiness systems solutions and innovation in rapid time.

We believe that most companies seeking to build or enhance their eBusiness capabilities require a professional services provider - eBusiness systems innovator -- with a broad range of integrated capabilities. Such a service provider must provide strategic industry insights combined with extensive technological skills to create applications, technology infrastructure and business systems that are reliable, robust, secure, scalable and extensible. Moreover, it must have a structured approach and the skills necessary to achieve the rapid innovation and deployment of eBusinesses demanded by today's competitive marketplace. Such a skill set must include the ability to understand and integrate a wide spectrum of technologies. Regency intends to use its resources and expertise to become such an eBusiness systems innovator.

Regency will provide the integrated services required to rapidly design, build and improve eBusinesses. We will provide strategy consulting that combines expertise in eBusiness with market-specific knowledge in order to produce a combined business and technology strategy for our clients. We will also design and build applications and technology infrastructure that support a wide variety of eBusiness functions. We believe that we have a set of integrated skills that will enable our clients to create or enhance competitive eBusinesses in rapid timeframes.

Regency's objective is to build a strong position as an eBusiness systems innovator. Our strategies for achieving that objective are as follows:

Secure Outstanding Innovative Professionals

We will place a strong focus on attracting, hiring, developing and retaining outstanding professionals. We will focus on maintaining a one-firm culture that fosters innovation and emphasizes professional development.

Target Potential Clients Through Market-Specific Business Units.

Our marketing and sales strategy will include targeting potential clients through market-specific business units that operate globally.

Establish Global Presence to Support Emerging eBusiness Leaders.

In order to better serve the needs of enterprises operating on a worldwide basis, we intend to expand our geographic presence within the United States and abroad.

Refine the Regency Strategy and Knowledge Management.

In order to capture, upgrade and refine our intellectual capital, including the Regency Strategy, we intend to invest in our knowledge management processes and systems. We believe that these processes and systems will allow us to use our intellectual capital in order to accelerate the delivery of our services, reduce our costs and leverage our industry expertise.

Competition from Bigger, More Established Competitors Who Have Greater Financial Resources Could Result in Price Reductions, Reduced Profitability and Loss of Market Share

Despite our assessment of the viability of our business objective, it must be noted that there can be no assurance of success. Competition in the eBusiness services market is intense. If we fail to compete successfully against future competitors, our business, financial condition and operating results would be seriously harmed. We will compete against companies selling electronic commerce software and services, and the in-house development efforts of companies seeking to engage in electronic commerce. We expect competition to persist and intensify in the future. We cannot be certain that we will be able to compete successfully with existing or new competitors. Because relatively low barriers to entry characterize our market, we also expect other companies to enter our market. We expect that competition will continue to intensify and increase in the future. Some large information technology consulting firms have announced that they will focus more resources on eBusiness opportunities. Because we will contract with our clients on an engagement-by-engagement basis, we will compete for engagements at each stage of our methodology. There is no guarantee that we will be retained by our existing or future clients on later stages of work.

Services

We will offer professional services to build and enhance eBusinesses. These services will include strategy consulting, customer experience design, systems architecture, and application and technology infrastructure development. Recognizing that all clients have different needs at different times, we will use our proprietary methodology, the Regency Approach, to customize our service offerings based on each client's requirements. The following descriptions highlight the primary services that we will offer.

Strategy Consulting. We will work with clients to tailor an eBusiness strategy designed to provide them with a measurable competitive advantage in a short timeframe. Our goal is to leverage the industry experience and knowledge base of our professionals along with the experiences of our clients' senior executives to formulate innovative, executable and flexible eBusiness strategies.

 

Customer Experience Design. Regency will develop user interface designs for clients. Because Regency considers the user interface to be more than just visual design, we will incorporate our abilities in information architecture, user interface engineering, editorial services and usability research to develop systems with innovative customer experiences. In addition to offering these services directly to our clients, Regency also will partner with third- party design firms to achieve our clients' specific visual design requirements. At the time of this filing, however no agreements or specific plans to enter into agreements with third-party design firms exist.

Systems Architecture. Using the Internet technologies, we will architect and design eBusiness applications and technology infrastructure for clients in rapid timeframes. We will offer application designs that range from intranet solutions to complex business-to-business and business-to-consumer innovations. Recognizing that the technical infrastructure becomes the foundation for any future application development, our technology infrastructure design services will focus on enabling eBusiness applications to be reliable, robust, secure, scalable and extensible.

Application and Technology Infrastructure Development. We will build and implement innovative eBusiness applications and technology infrastructure that take into account the current and future business needs of our clients. We recognize that new types of communications devices are proliferating, network usage is expanding, and the future of eBusiness will be dependent upon the development and integration of a variety of technologies. We will build applications and technology infrastructure to be able to accommodate these changes in the eBusiness environment. Our applications and technology infrastructure development services will utilize our capabilities in application software, networks, systems, security and infrastructure architecture. Regency will develop applications and technology infrastructure to be robust and to serve as the foundation for eBusiness innovations that can link to existing systems and technologies. We intend in the near future to offer our clients, upon completion of engagements with them, services to help them extend, enhance and innovate their eBusinesses. These services will draw from all of our major competencies in order to provide our clients with iterative innovation in all aspects of their eBusiness implementations. To date, however, we have not been engaged to provide these services for a client.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

The statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Forward-looking statements are made based upon management's current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects upon the Company. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Company will be those anticipated by management. Actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements.

Overview

We were organized on February 1, 1999, and are considered to be a developmental stage company engaged in the business of providing online information and marketing services seeking to offer our corporate clients the ability to gain maximum exposure via the Internet. Regency Group was formed to capitalize, acquire and formulate alliances between web-based, Internet and broadband technology companies. Regency will provide a full range of resources to provide companies with the development strategies and financial support needed to rapidly introduce innovative products and services. Resources include office space and the accompanying network infrastructure, consulting and services relating to development and technology, graphic design, marketing, competitive research, legal, accounting and business development support and services. Additionally, Regency will provide consulting resources including development strategies.

Plan of Operation

We have a limited operating history and have generated minimal revenues. As of December 31, 1999, our activities have been limited primarily to organization, initial capitalization, finding and securing an appropriate, experienced management team and board of directors, development of a business plan, purchase and installation of computer servers, initial web site development and initial consulting services. Consequently, we have incurred the expenses of such procedures. Future operating results will depend on many factors, including our ability to raise adequate working capital, demand for our services, the level of competition and our ability to satisfy governmental regulations and deliver company services while maintaining quality and controlling costs.

In our initial approximately eleven (11) month operating period from inception (February 1, 1999) to our fiscal year end (December 31, 1999), we incurred a net loss of $136,168 for selling, general and administrative expenses related to these start-up operations. We expect to derive initial revenues primarily from companies seeking assistance and guidance to gain maximum exposure on the Internet.

Results of Operations

Period from February 1, 1999 (Inception) to December 31, 1999

The operational period from February 1, 1999 (Inception) to December 31, 1999, achieved two main goals for the corporation. Our goals were the formation of the organization to pursue the Regency Group's business objective and to obtain sufficient capital to commence operations.

Revenues. Regency Group is a developmental stage enterprise as defined in SFAS #7. We have generated minimal revenues for the period amounting to $2,666. We have devoted substantially all of our present efforts to: (1) developing our presence in the eBusiness market through completion of our website, (2) marketing Regency Group to the general public and leading corporations and (3) completing our 12(g) reporting requirements with the Securities Act of 1934 and our commencement of trading on the NASD Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTC-BBâ ).

Expenses. The Company incurred significant expenses for the operating period February 1, 1999 (Inception) to December 31, 1999, totaling $138,278. Expenditures were primarily due to costs incurred for general and administrative expenses.

Net Loss. Due to the significant operating expenses, Regency Group experienced a net loss of $136,168. We anticipated incurring this loss during the initial commencement of operations until such time that we will realize the increase in our clientele base in the fiscal year 2000 for demand in the services that we provide.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have generated minimal revenues during this period but it is anticipated that we will realize increased revenues pending the increase in demand for our services during the next 12 months. We have financed our cash flow requirements through issuance of common stock. During the normal course of business, we may experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending receipt of sales revenues. Furthermore, we may be required to obtain additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings and bank borrowings, to the extent available, or to obtain additional financing to the extent necessary to augment its working capital.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

April 12, 2000

Board of Directors
The Regency Group Limited, Inc.
7373 E. Double Tree Ranch Road, Suite 200
Scottsdale, AZ 85258

I have audited the Balance Sheet of The Regency Group Limited, Inc. (the "Company") (A Development Stage Company), as of December 31, 1999, and the related Statements of Operations, Stockholders' Equity, and Cash Flows for the period February 1, 1999 (Date of Inception) to December 31, 1999. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.

I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement presentation. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.

In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Regency Group Limited, Inc., (A Development Stage Company), as of February 1, 1999 (Date of Inception) to December 31, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 5 to the financial statements, the Company has had limited operations and have not commenced planned principal operations. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plan in regard to these matters are also described in Note 5. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1 - History and organization of the company

The Company was organized February 1, 1999 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the State of Nevada, as The Regency Group Limited, Inc. The Company has limited operations and in accordance with SFAS #7, the Company is considered a development stage company.

Note 2 - Accounting policies and procedures

Accounting policies and procedures have not been determined except as follows:

Accounting method

The Company reports income and expenses on the accrual method.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principals 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 the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and equivalents

The Company maintains a cash balance in a non-interest-bearing account that currently does not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with the maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There are no cash equivalents as of December 31, 1999.

Reporting in the costs of start-up activities

Statement of Position 98-5 (SOP 98-5), "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities," which provides guidance on the financial reporting of start-up costs and organizational costs, requires most costs of start-up activities and organizational costs to be expensed as incurred. SOP 98-5 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. With the adoption of SOP 98-5, there has been little or no effect on the Company's financial statements.

Loss per share

Net loss per share is provided in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS #128) "Earnings Per Share". Basic loss per share is computed by dividing losses available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share reflects per share amounts that would have resulted if dilutive common stock equivalents had been converted to common stock. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had no dilutive common stock equivalents such as stock options or warrants.

Dividends

The Company has not yet adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends. No dividends have been paid since inception.

Website development

Website development costs totaling $8,900 are capitalized and amortized over a period of 60 months from December 1, 1999 through November 30, 2004. Total amortization for the year ended 12/31/99 is $148.

Note 3 - Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for using the liability method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS #109) "Accounting for Income Taxes".

Note 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. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. However, the Company has not commenced its planned principal operations. Additionally the Company does not have significant cash or other material assets nor does it an established source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs to allow it to continue as a going concern indefinitely. Until that time, the officers have committed to advance the operating costs the company interest free.

The Company has not incurred, nor anticipates that it will incur material expenses to make its computer software programs and operating systems "Year 2000" compliant.
