INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors of:
The Hydrogiene Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets
of The Hydrogiene Corporation and Subsidiaries (a
development stage company) as of December 31, 1998 and
1997 and the related consolidated statements of operations,
changes in stockholders' deficiency and cash flows for the years
then ended and for the period from December 28, 1995
(Inception) to December 31, 1998. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the consolidated financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly in all material respects, the financial
position of The Hydrogiene Corporation and Subsidiaries (a
development stage company) as of December 31, 1998 and
1997 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years then ended and for the period from December 28, 1995
(Inception) to December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going
concern. As discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial
statements, the Company's recurring losses from operations,
working capital deficiency and stockholders' deficiency raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern. Management's Plan in regards to these matters is also
described in Note 10. The consolidated financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
of this uncertainty.

THE HYDROGIENE CORPORATION
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACOUNTING
POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION
(A) Organization
On December 28, 1995, Hydrogiene Corporation ("HC-Delaware"),
was incorporated in Delaware. The Hydrogiene Corporation
("HC-California") was incorporated in the State of
California on August 21, 1997.
On September 1, 1997, HC-Delaware, the predecessor, was
merged into HC-California. The merger was treated as a
combination of entities under common control and, accordingly,
recorded at historical cost. The accompanying consolidated
financial statements reflect the operations of both companies for
the periods presented. Concurrent with the merger, HC-Delaware
changed its name to Magna IV, Ltd. and was never dissolved.
Therefore, it remains as an inactive subsidiary.
On October 13, 1998, The Hydrogiene Corporation, ("THC"), a
Nevada corporation, acquired all the net assets of HC-California
by issuing one share of its common stock for each share of
HC-California common stock outstanding. HC-California was
never dissolved and remains as an inactive affiliate.
On October 14, 1998, High Climbers, Inc. ("HCI"), an inactive
shell Florida corporation quoted at that time on the NASD
OTCBB, acquired all of the outstanding stock of THC. The
merger agreement stipulated that HCI issue to the shareholders
of THC 2.1367 shares of HCI's common stock for every one
share held by THC's stockholders. As a result of the merger,
the shareholders of THC received 6,754,571 shares and became
shareholders of approximately 72% of HCI. Generally accepted
accounting principles require that the company whose
shareholders retain a majority voting interest in a combined
business be treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes. As
a result, the merger was treated as an acquisition of HCI by
THC and as a recapitalization of THC. Accordingly, the
financial statements include the following: (1) the balance sheet
consists of the THC's net assets at historical cost and HCI's net
assets at historical cost and (2) the statement of operations
includes the THC's operations for the period presented and the
operations of HCI from the date of merger. HCI changed its
name to The Hydrogiene Corporation (hereinafter referred to as
"the Company").
The Company manufactures and markets a family of personal
hygiene products similar to European cleansing, therapy and
sitz bath systems. The Company currently is in the
development stage and activities to date include fund raising,
product design and development, and establishment of markets.
(B) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements includes the accounts of
the Company and its wholly-owned inactive subsidiaries,
Magna IV, Ltd., The Hydrogiene Corporation, a Nevada
Corporation, and Hydrogiene Corporation de Mexico, S.A. de
C.V. All intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consoidation.
(C) Use of Estimates
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, management is required to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
(D) Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the cash flow statements, the Company
considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities
of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash
equivalents.
(E) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107,
"Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,"
requires disclosures of information about the fair value of
certain financial instruments for which it is practicable to
estimate the value. For purposes of this disclosure, the fair
value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the
instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between
willing parties other than in a forced sale or liquidation.
The carrying amounts of the Company's accounts payable,
accrued liabilities, and loans payable approximates fair value
due to the relatively short period to maturity for these
instruments.
(F) Stock Options and Warrants
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, ("SFAS 123") the Company has elected to
account for Stock Options and Warrants issued to employees
under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB
Opinion No. 25") and related interpretations. The Company
accounts for stock options and warrants issued to nonemployees
for services under the fair value method of SFAS 123.
(G) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using
the double-declining balance method over the estimated
economic useful lives of 3 to 7 years. Expenditures for
maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Major improvements are capitalized.
(H) Revenue Recognition and Cost of Goods Sold
The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment of products.
Cost of goods sold in 1998 and 1997 includes the cost of
impaired inventory disposed of.
(I) Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the Financial
Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("Statement
109"). Under Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted
tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered
or settled. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the enactment date.
(J) Advertising Costs
In accordance with the Accounting Standards Executive
Committee Statement of Position 93-7 ("SOP 93-7"), costs
incurred for producing and communicating advertising of the
Company are charged to operations.
(K) Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts,
which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The
Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and
believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash
and cash equivalents.
(L) Loss Per Share
Basic and diluted net loss per common share for the years ended
December 31, 1998 and 1997 is computed based upon the
weighted average common shares outstanding as defined by
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share".
In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission
Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 4(D), for purposes of
computing loss per share, a nominal issuance of 1,025,616
common shares in 1997 and 2.777.641 common shares in 1998
has been treated as outstanding for all reported periods in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. Common
stock equivalents have not been included in the computation of
diluted loss per share since the effect would be anti-dilutive. At
December 31, 1998 there were 550,505 warrants issued and
outstanding that could potentially dilute earnings per share in
future periods.
(M) Business Segments
The Company applies Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." The Company operates in
one segment and therefore segment information is not
presented.
(N) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has recently issued
several new accounting pronouncements. Statement No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities", as amended by Statement No. 137, establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments
and related contracts and hedging activities. This statement is
effective for all fiscal quarters and fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000. The Company believes that its adoption of
pronouncement No. 133, as amended by No. 137, will not have
a material effect on the Company's financial position or results
of operations.
NOTE 2 STOCK SUBSCRIPTION RECEIVABLE
Pursuant to a Regulation D, Rule 504 private offering in 1998,
the Company issued 2,946,000 shares of common stock to
investors for proceeds of $450,000 (See Note 7(C)). As of
December 31, 1998 the Company received $378,200 in cash
and recorded a stock subscription receivable of $71,800. The
Company received the $71,800 in 1999.

NOTE 4 ACCRUED COMPENSATION
The Company has employment agreements with two individuals
to serve as the Chief Executive Officer and Vice President-
Communications of the Company (See Note 6(C). The
individuals agreed to defer payment of the amounts owed to
them pursuant to the agreements due to the Company's lack of
funds. During 1998, $74,600 of accrued compensation from
1997 and $85,000 from 1998, totaling $159,000, was converted
to common stock at $1.00 per share. Additional compensation
expense of $1.00 per share or $159,000 was recognized on the
conversion date based on a recent cash offering price of $2.00
per share. The Company owed the individuals $79,262 and
$74,600 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, which is
included in accrued compensation in the balance sheets.
