--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company is an e-business services provider to perishable commodity
marketplaces. Through its subsidiaries, the Company is focused on the
installation and maintenance of clock and cooling systems for internet
auction halls. To date, the Company continues to focus on streamlining
and increasing the capabilities of electronic commerce processing for
internet auction halls.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a) Reverse takeover
Pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement dated February 26, 1999,
e-Auction Global Trading Inc. (formerly Kazari International Inc.)
("Nevada"), a Nevada company, acquired 100% of the issued and
outstanding shares of e-Auction Global Trading Inc., ("Barbados"),
a Barbados company, for the issuance of 34,500,000 common shares.
As a result of the transaction, control of the Company passed to
Barbados. Accordingly, the share exchange has been accounted for as
a reverse takeover of Nevada by Barbados.
Application of reverse takeover accounting results in the
following:
i) The consolidated financial statements of the combined entity are
issued under the name of the legal parent, e-Auction Global
Trading Inc. (formerly Kazari International Inc.), but are
considered a continuation of the financial statements of the
legal subsidiary (Barbados).
ii) As Barbados is deemed to be the acquirer for accounting
purposes, its assets and liabilities are included in the
consolidated financial statements of the continuing entity at
their carrying value.
iii)The 34,500,000 shares issued are deemed to be issued on April
30, 1998, the date of incorporation of Barbados.
b) Principles of consolidation
The accompanying financial statements consolidate the accounts of
the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries: Aucxis N.V.
(formerly e-Auction Belgium N.V.), and their wholly owned
subsidiary; Schelfhout Computer Systemen N.V. and their 99% owned
subsidiary SDL Invest N.V.; e-Auction Global Trading Inc.
(Barbados) and their wholly owned subsidiary Aucxis Corp. (formerly
e-Auction Global Trading Inc. (Canada)); V-Wholesaler.com B.V. and
the Company's 50.01% interest in e-Auction Australasia Limited.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a) Foreign currency translation
The Company's functional currencies are Euros, Australian dollars,
and U.S. dollars; and its reporting currency are U.S. dollars. The
Company follows SFAS 52 where all foreign currency transactions
are translated using the exchange rate in effect at the date of
the transaction. At each balance sheet date, recorded balances
denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars are adjusted to
reflect the period end exchange rate.
b) Loss per common share
The weighted average number of shares used for calculating loss
per share is 60,074,118 (1999 - 28,955,359).
c) Measurement uncertainty
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Significant areas requiring the use of management
estimates relate to the determination of impairment of assets and
useful lives for depreciation and amortization. Financial results
as determined by actual events could differ from those estimates.
d) Financial instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, short term
deposits, accounts receivable, accounts payable, financial debts,
short-term loan, due to related parties and obligations under
capital lease, the fair market value of which approximates their
carrying value.
e) Amortization
Amortization of capital assets and goodwill. Amortization is
provided at the following annual rates:
Land and buildings Straight-line over 20 years
Software Straight-line over 5 years
Furniture and fixtures Straight-line over 5 to 15 years
Tools and equipment Straight-line over 3 to 5 years
Vehicles Straight-line over 5 years
Goodwill Straight-line over 5 years
f) Related party transactions
Related party transactions are recorded at their exchange amounts
which approximate fair market value.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONT'D
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
g) Non-controlling interest
Non-controlling interest, as stated on the balance sheet,
represents the carrying value in the net assets of minority
shareholders of the Company's subsidiaries. The balance is
increased or decreased by the minority shareholders' percentage of
the subsidiaries' earnings or losses during the period.
h) Income taxes
The Company would record a deferred tax asset subject to an
evaluation allowance where that asset is impaired or not expected
to be realized. At December 31, 1999 the Company had deferred tax
assets of approximately $1,194,494. The Company's valuation
allowance would be equal to the amount of the deferred tax assets.
Therefore, there have been no amounts booked in the accounts of
the Company.
i) Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from license fees upon the signing
of the specific agreement and the delivery of software to the
purchaser. Royalties are recognized in the period it is earned.
The Company follows the completed contract method for recognizing
revenues earned from clock and cooling systems installation. The
application is reasonable given majority of contracts are short
term in nature. Cost of sales relating to the clock and cooling
systems installation include only costs directly related to the
specific contracts. Revenue earned from maintenance contracts are
recognized on a straight line basis over the life of the contract.
j) Inventory and work in progress
Raw materials and consumables inventories are stated at the lower
of cost or market with cost being determined using the weighted
average method. Obsolete or defective inventories have been
reduced to net realizable value. Write-downs of inventories are
recorded on the basis of age and turnover of inventory according
to the judgment of management.
The work in progress includes only direct costs (i.e. raw materials
and labour costs).

and 606,061 shares with a deemed value of $1,000,000 on each of the 36,
48 and 60 month anniversary of the closing. If the Company's shares are
not freely trading on any given release date the equivalent cash is to be
paid by the Company and the shares returned to the treasury.
The 3,636,364 common shares issued to the vendors on closing has been
valued at $1 per share for accounting purposes; however, should the
Company decide to redeem the shares, the redemption price would be $1.65
per share.
As at October 2, 2000 the shares of the Company are not freely trading
