Company had 1,750 shareholders.
<PAGE>
ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
OVERVIEW
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on August 24,
1978 with authorized common stock of 25,000,000 shares at a par value of $.01.
Since inception the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary has been engaged
in the business of the exploration, development and production of mineral
properties. During 1992 the Company ceased operations by the loss of its
remaining assets and its wholly owned subsidiary and has since remained
inactive.
On February 29, 1984, the Registrant filed a voluntary petition under chapter
XI of the United States Bankruptcy Code, in the United States Bankruptcy Court,
District of Wyoming. Previous Annual Reports on Forms 10-K have detailed the
background of the filing and progress in the reorganization proceedings. On
February 18, 1987, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Registrant's plan of
Reorganization which had been submitted to and approved by creditors. On July
13, 1988, the Bankruptcy Court issued the final decree closing the case of
Viable Resources, Inc. No 84-00138-B, pursuant to Rule 3022 of the bankruptcy
rules.
The ability of the Registrant to meet its obligations under the plan depended on
the operational success under the agreement. The registrant's share of the
revenues under the agreement was not sufficient to meet the payments to
creditors under the plan and during 1990 became delinquent on the payments to
creditors.
.
At the date of this report all remaining debt of the registrant after completion
of the bankruptcy has been extinguished by the statute of limitations.
The company is considered to have been in the development stage since April 1,
1993.
The Company intends to take advantage of any reasonable business proposal
presented which management believes will provide the Company and its
stockholders with a viable business opportunity. The board of directors will
make the final approval in determining whether to complete any acquisition, and
unless required by applicable law, the articles of incorporation or bylaws or by
contract, stockholders' approval will not be sought.
The investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation,
drafting, and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents, and other
instruments will require substantial management time and attention and will
require the Company to incur substantial costs for payment of accountants,
attorneys, and others. If a decision is made not to participate in or complete
the acquisition of a specific business opportunity, the costs incurred in a
related investigation will not be recoverable. Further, even if an agreement is
reached for the participation in a specific business opportunity by way of
investment or otherwise, the failure to consummate the particular transaction
may result in the loss to the Company of all related costs incurred. In the past
the board of directors has approved a resolution authorizing the Company to
issue shares of its common stock as consideration for monies advanced or
services rendered on behalf of the Company.
<PAGE>
Currently, management is not able to determine the time or resources that will
be necessary to complete the participation in or acquisition of any future
business prospect.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on August 24,
1978 with authorized common stock of 25,000,000 shares at a par value of $.01.
Since inception the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary has been engaged
in the business of the exploration, development and production of mineral
properties. During 1992 the Company ceased operations and has since
remained inactive.
On February 29, 1984, the Registrant filed a voluntary petition under chapter XI
of the United States Bankruptcy Code, in the United States Bankruptcy Court,
District of Wyoming. Previous Annual Reports on Form 10-K have detailed the
background of the filing and progress in the reorganization proceedings. On
February 18, 1987, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Registrant's plan of
Reorganization which had been submitted to and approved by creditors. On July
13, 1988, the Bankruptcy Court issued the final decree closing the case of
Viable Resources, Inc. No 84-00138-B, pursuant to Rule 3022 of the bankruptcy

At the date of this report all remaining debt of the registrant after completion
of the bankruptcy has been extinguished by the statute of limitations.
The company is considered to have been in the development stage since April 1,
1993.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting Methods
- -------------------
The Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method of
accounting.
Dividend Policy
- ----------------
The Company has not yet adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends.
Income Taxes
- -------------
On March 31, 1998, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of
$6,594,325. The tax benefit from the loss carry forward has been fully offset
by a valuation reserve because the use of the future tax benefit is doubtful
since the Company has no operations and an estimated 6,000,000 of the loss
carry forward has expired and the balance will expire starting in 1999 through
2018.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Estimates and Assumptions
- ---------------------------
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and
expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in
preparing these financial statements.
Financial instruments
- ----------------------
The carrying amounts of financial instruments are considered by management to be
their estimated fair values. These values are not necessarily indicative of the
amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
- ----------------------------
Earnings (loss) per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average
number of shares actually outstanding in accordance with FASB No. 128.
3. GOING CONCERN
The Company's management intends to acquire interests in various business
opportunities which, in the opinion of management, will provide a profit to the
Company but it does not have the working capital to be successful in this
effort.
Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the
working capital for its planned activity and the management of the Company has
developed a strategy, which they believe can obtain the needed working capital
through additional equity funding and long term debt which will enable the
Company to pursue its objective.
