Management's Discussion and Analysis
of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations
December 31, 1998 v. December 31, 1997
Overall
E.T. Capital, Inc. is continuing to expand its entry into
"not-for-profit" fund raising using "1-900" "pay-per-call"
telephone numbers
as outlined in the Company's business plan. With campaign
finance reform a
central issue in both the Congress and the Senate, the Company is
ready to
conclude agreements for the use of the Company's two political
"1-900" fund
raising numbers: 1-900-DEMOCRAT and 1-900-REPUBLICAN. These
numbers could
raise hundreds of millions of dollars for both the Democratic and
Republican
parties. Projections indicate the Company could earn over $2.00
per share
from each number.
To develop cash flow from the "1-900" concept, the Company
will continue
to rely on Xanthos Management Corporation to finance the
Company's ongoing
overhead under the terms of the bearer debenture it holds until
fund raising
contracts have been signed. (See notes to September 30, 1998
Audit as filed
and as part of the September 30, 1998 10K.)
The Company has been active in its efforts to acquire and
finance the
Paraguayan hydrocarbon concessions, however the downward trend in
the price of
oil has slowed interest in this project. In late 1997 and
continuing
throughout 1998, the Asian economic crisis as well as a world
wide warming
trend adversely affected the world price of hydrocarbons.
Activity in this
field has historically been cyclical and the Company considers
that this
crisis has already been taken into account by finance
professionals and should
not adversely affect ongoing negotiations.
Cash assets at the close of the first quarter were $50,327
as compared to
$0 at December 31, 1997 and 1996; fixed assets were written down
to $1 at
December 31, 1998 as compared to $1 at December 31, 1997 and
$2,270 at
December 31, 1996. The Rights and associated product development
expenditures
(subject to the amortization schedule set forth in the Financial
Statements)
dropped to $1 at December 31, 1998 compared to $243,841 at
December 31, 1997
and $304,802 at December 31, 1996. Total assets dropped to
$233,210 at
December 31, 1998 from $243,841 at December 31, 1997 and
(because the
financing that had been negotiated through Barclay's Bank in
London was
canceled) from $350,307,072 at December 31, 1996. During the
fiscal year, the
Company and its counsel continue to take the position that
individuals,
corporations and/or financial institutions that either profited
from or
participated in the above transaction through Barclay's should
compensate the
Company for the unauthorized use of its securities and for breach
of the
original contractual agreements. The Company's lawyers are
investigating the
Company's remedies as a result of these transactions and are
confident that
the Company will be successful.
Extraordinary Items
In August, the Company made an Agreement with, Bruce
Straughn of
Wilmette, Illinois, and John McConkey of Trabuco Canyon,
California, whereby
they would raise $5 million in working capital for the Company in
order for
the Company to proceed with extensive marketing studies for the
two political
1 900 fund raising telephone numbers, 1 900 "Democrat" and 1 900
"Republican".
The Company arranged for the delivery of 2.4 million shares of
E.T. Capital,
Inc., borrowed from Xanthos Management, to Straughn and McConkey
on August 23,
1998. The terms of the agreement with Straughn and McConkey
required them to
pay $200,000 immediately and to raise $5 million by the end of
1998. Straughn
and McConkey immediately violated the Agreement by not making the
required
$200,000 payment. When payment of the $200,000 was not made, the
Company
demanded the return of the 2.4 million shares. Notwithstanding
this demand,
Straughn and McConkey further damaged the Company by disposing of
the said 2.4
million shares, by selling them into the market, with the result
that the
price of the stock was forced down to a level of $0.003 per share
from $1.50
per share. The shareholders lost over $25 million in market
capitalization
as a result of the actions of these two individuals. Damages to
the Company
and various causes of action are being assessed by counsel for
the company.
Further, the Company has incurred a potential liability to
Xanthos Management
for the return of the Shares delivered to Straughn and McConkey.
Any loss
payable by the Company to Xanthos as a result of this transaction
will be
added to claims against Straughn and McConkey. An adverse claim
has been
filed by the Company with the Company's transfer agent against
the said 2.4
million shares of E.T. Capital, Inc. delivered to Bruce Straughn
and John
McConkey. There were no other extraordinary items reported in
this fiscal
year other than that as stated above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 1998, the Company had cash assets of $50,327
and total
assets of $233,210 compared with cash assets of $0 and total
assets of
$243,943 at December 31, 1997 and $350,307,072 at December 31,
1996. Except
as previously disclosed, the Company is not aware of any known
trends,
demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in
or that are
reasonably likely to result in the Company's liquidity increasing
or
decreasing in any material way.
Capital Resources and Expenditure
There were no significant capital expenditures made by the
Company during
the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Management of the Company
knows of no
material trends, favorable or unfavorable, with respect to the
Company's
capital resources.
Inflation
The results of the Company's operations have not been
significantly
affected by inflation during the quarter ended December 31, 1998.
