ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
ARIES HOLDINGS, INC.
We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Aries Holdings, Inc. (a
Delaware corporation) as of June 30, 2000 and the related statements of
operations and accumulated deficit, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the
period from inception (September 7, 1999) to June 30, 2000 in accordance with
standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
All information included in these financial statements is the representation of
the management of Aries Holdings, Inc.
A review consists principally of inquiries of company personnel and analytical
procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an
audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FROM INCEPTION TO THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2000
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS:
Aires Holdings, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated on September 7,
1999 in the state of Delaware. The Company was formed in order to seek
business opportunities and is currently a "shell" with no business
operations. As of the date of these financial statements all of the
Company's operations have been organizational in nature and as a
result it must be considered in its developmental stage.
The Company's current business plan is to seek out business
opportunities and to pursue other related activities intended to
enhance shareholder value. The Company will be seeking opportunities
which will probably be in the form of a merger with a foreign or
domestic private issuer that wishes to become a reporting issuer.
However, the Company will explore opportunities which may take the
form of a purchase, exchange of stock, or encompass entities such as a
corporation, joint venture or partnership. This includes industries
such as service, finance, natural resources, manufacturing, high
technology, product development, medical, communications and others.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The Company's accounting policies are in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. Outlined below are those policies
considered significant.
(a) STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS:
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the company considers all
highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.
NOTE 3 - CAPITAL STOCK:
As part of the Company's initial organization the Company was
authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of it's $ .0001 par value
preferred stock and 100,000,000 shares of it's $ .0001 par value
common stock. As of the date of this financial statement none of the
preferred stock has been issued. Subsequent to its formation the
Company entered into subscription agreement authorizing the issuance
of 4,750,000 shares of it's $ .0001 par value common stock. The
subscription agreement was completed on January 25, 2000 when payment
for the shares was received by the Company. On November 29, 1999 the
Company authorized a stock option plan reserving 1,000,000 shares of
it's common stock, and pursuant to the plan granted stock options to
it's officers and directors in the amount of 250,000 shares
exercisable as defined by the terms of the stock option agreements. As
of June 30, 2000, all of the stock options granted were exercised.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
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 and episodic reports under Rule 13(a) of the Exchange Act,
including quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB and annual reports 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 underwriter 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 it will be able 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. Management is actively engaged in seeking a qualified private company
as a candidate for a business combination. 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 December 31,
1999, management had not made any final decision concerning or entered into any
agreements for a business combination. See "SUBSEQUENT EVENTS" below. 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
<PAGE>
this Form 10-QSB are advised to see if the Company has subsequently filed a Form
8-K. The current shareholders of the Company have agreed not to sell or
otherwise transfer any of their common stock of the Company except in connection
with a business combination. The Company does not intend to trade its securities
in the secondary market until completion of a business combination. It is
anticipated that immediately following such occurrence the Company will cause
its common stock to be listed or admitted to quotation on the NASD OTC Bulletin
Board or, if it then meets the financial and other requirements thereof, on the
Nasdaq SmallCap Market, National Market System or a regional or national
exchange.
