Overview
Showstar Online.com, Inc. (the "Company", "Showstar" and sometimes "we,"
"us," "our" and derivatives of such words), formerly named Showstar
Entertainment Corporation, was incorporated on July 14, 1995 in the State of
Colorado as Cerotex Holdings, Inc. The Company commenced business as a developer
of computer-based management systems and continued operations on a limited basis
until March 18, 1998.
On March 19, 1998, Barry Forward and Gino Punzo gained control of the
Company through a cash purchase of Common Stock from founding stockholders. On
April 23, 1998, the Company effected an agreement with all the stockholders of
Showstar Entertainment Corporation (formerly Nucom Productions, Inc.), a Nevada
Corporation ("Showstar/Nucom"), whereby the Company issued 3,367,000 shares of
its no par Common Stock in exchange for 77% of the outstanding common stock of
Showstar/Nucom.
In May 1998 the Company changed its name to Showstar Entertainment
Corporation, assuming the name of its majority-owned subsidiary. Effective
August 25, 1998, the remaining 23% of Showstar/Nucom was acquired through
issuance of 999,066 shares of the Company's Common Stock.
On June 18, 1999, the stockholders of the Company approved a change in
corporate name to Showstar Online.com, Inc., which became effective on June 25,
1999.
From April 1998 to February 1999, Showstar engaged in merchandising and
event promotion in secondary markets in the Western United States and Canada.
These operations were discontinued in February 1999.
GENERAL
Showstar Online.com, Inc. is a developer of Internet websites and
e-commerce solutions. One of Showstar's e-commerce solutions is the integration
of ORACLE iStore 3.0 to offer an e-commerce solution for Artstar.com customers.
In addition, Showstar, together with its contractor Shoptek e-Commerce
Solutions, has been developing a customized online catalog to showcase and sell
works of art available through individual artists, galleries and museums.
Showstar has established a unique and scalable e-commerce infrastructure by
developing and integrating several leading edge technologies, including the
incorporation of ORACLE database tools, Cold Fusion, Macromedia Flash and
LIVEPICTURE into Artstar.com. This also includes the customized development of
Artstar.com's art search engine accessing the ORACLE database.
Showstar's development of its website property "Artstar.com" commenced in
May 1999. Showstar launched e-commerce and retail activities on the website in
December 1999 and thus commenced principal operations. A marketing and public
relations program commenced in November 1999.
In March 2000 Showstar introduced its first portal development product
Showstar Webmail. Showstar WebMail was designed as a software solution for web
portals and is available in a customized form on the company's website
Artstar.com. Showstar is now marketing its webmail product to third-party
websites.
Through this website, Showstar offers a variety of products and services
under the domain name "Artstar.com." These are designed to attract viewer
traffic to the site and to generate revenue for Showstar. The
8
<PAGE>
products and services offered include auctions, authentication and appraisal
consulting, buyer (corporate and individual) representation, and education in
art, collectibles and restoration.
Via the Internet, Showstar provides a variety of entertainment and education
products and services to those interested in art and collectibles. Showstar's
revenues are derived from a variety of sources, including online auctions,
appraisals and authentication, commissions, advertising, content licensing,
various consulting services, and merchandising. All of the aforementioned
products and services currently are marketed and sold on the ArtStar.com
website. Showstar does not buy and sell art work or collectibles for its own
account.
In May of 2000 Showstar acquired the assets of ALS Sportswear and began
operating this division with the previous owners in place. This division
supplies products to a variety of corporate clients and sports teams as well as
being able to service galleries and museums with product for their gift shops.
The Company continues to develop the Artstar Web-site through increasing
functionality and finding saleable content. We began actively pursuing affiliate
relationships with other sites and are pleased with the increasing traffic and
sales resulting from visitors from those sites. In addition, we have extended
e-commerce capability to offshore markets and have received and processed orders
from Indonesia, England and Europe.
We are continuing development and enhancement of Showstar WebMail, adding
functionality that does not exist in other e-mail products. Our linux-based
software development team is always looking for opportunities to develop
additional products for third party customers as well as the Artstar web-site.
Management continues to look at opportunities to strengthen the company through
acquisition such as the ALS purchase, partnering with other art sites and/or
brick and mortar businesses.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended July 31, 2000 and July 31, 1999
Sales and Cost of Sales
Sales at $121,445 and Cost of Sales at $56,365 are higher than last year as the
company during the first quarter of 1999 was just beginning development of the
web site and had no other active business happening at that time. The results
reflect the continuing e-commerce development on the Artstar site and the ramp
up of the ALS operation.
Selling, General and Administrative Costs
Selling, General and Administrative Costs ("SGA") of $568,610 compared to
$159,738 also reflect the company being in the start-up stages of the web
development last year. SGA include salaries and benefits for corporate
management, administrative and sales personnel, as well as rent expense for the
Company's office premises.
Other Costs
Other costs are lower by $601,599 reflecting the change in the operations year
over year especially in terms of stock based compensation not required to the
same level this year as last year during the building of the infrastructure
needed to develop the web-site and operate the company.
9
<PAGE>
Net Loss
As a result of the foregoing, the Company experienced a net loss for the quarter
ending July 31, 2000 of $1,045,003, as compared to a net loss of $1,274,670 for
the comparable period in 1999. The company is still effectively in its
development stage and will rely on outside funding during the current year to
cover operating losses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The principal source of funds to the Company since its formation has been
derived from the net proceeds of certain private offerings of securities which
have been used to fund continued development, selling, general and
administrative costs. The Company believes that additional financing for the
next twelve months will continue to be required to continue development of the
Artstar web-site, linux-based software and the expansion of the ALS operation.
The company has been successful in raising funds in the past and expects to be
able to do so in the future until such time as revenues and earnings provide
adequate cash flows.
FOREIGN CURRENCY EXPOSURE
Showstar is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies relative to the
U.S. dollar because it collects revenues in U.S. dollars and incurs certain
costs in foreign currencies, primarily the Canadian dollar. As Showstar expands
its operations, it may begin to collect revenues from customers in currencies
other than the U.S. dollar. Showstar does not currently engage in any hedging
activities.
