E-COMMERCE WEST CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED October 31, 1998
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim financial statements of
E-COMMERCE WEST CORP. (The Company) are unaudited; however, in
the opinion of Management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of such financial statements have been reflected in
the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consisted only
of normal recurring items.
Due to the fact that the Companys previous single source
of revenue, Goldiggers Hotel & Gaming Est., closed on January 5,
1998; and the Company experienced no revenues during the
transition period from a gaming company to an Internet company;
and with revenues anticipated to resume in the first calendar
quarter of 1999 coinciding with the planned launch of the
Companys first retail Web site; operating results for the three
months ended October 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ended July 31,
1998. The significant accounting policies and certain financial
information which are normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, but which are not required for interim reporting
purposes, have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying
financial statements of the Company should be read in
conjunction with the Companys audited financial statements for
the year ended July 31, 1998 and the notes thereto, included in
the Companys annual report on Form 10-K.
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
General Financial Condition
The Company does not have any current revenue streams from
operations. However, revenues are anticipated to commence with
the launch of the Companys first Internet retail Web site which
is scheduled to occur in the first quarter of calendar year
1999. The Company does anticipate revenues within the current
fiscal year to be derived from its Internet niche Web sites
although there can be no assurances as to the amount of revenues
or if the revenues will be sufficient to satisfy ongoing
corporate operating expense.
The Companys direct expenses throughout the quarter have
been made from cash on hand plus loans from time to time from
its President/CEO. The Company is currently seeking financing to
sustain operations. Current cash on hand is not sufficient to
meet ongoing operating expenses however the Company is
optimistic that financing will be available, although there can
be no assurances that financing in the amount and on terms
acceptable to the Company will be available within the time
frame required.
Results of Operations:
E-Commerce West
The quarter was spent in the continuing research into the
Internet in general and electronic commerce specifically plus
the development of the Companys initial retail Web site. Funds
were expensed and are expected to continue to be expensed in the
ongoing development of the Web site.
Proposed Wyatt, Missouri Riverboat Casino
Subsequent to the Company notifying the Army Corps of
Engineers that the points proposed by the Missouri Department of
Natural Resources in their comment letter responding to the
Corpss Public Notice were acceptable, the Companys engineer
has been notified by the Corps that they will request the
Missouri Department of Natural Resources to issue a Water
Certification Permit. Once received by the Corps, they will
proceed to issue the Section 404 permit necessary prior to the
commencement of any construction related to the Companys
proposed Riverboat Casino Entertainment Center. However, the
Company can not project a time frame for the issuance of the
permit.
Option To Purchase Land Adjacent to the Triple J Casino in
Henderson,
Nevada.
In anticipation of its planned acquisition of the Triple J
Casino in Henderson, Nevada, the Company obtained an eighteen
month option to purchase for $75,000 7.28 acres of land adjacent
to the 16 acres which comprised the Triple J. The option
allowed the Company to purchase the property for $1.5 million
with the $75,000, which was paid in restricted shares of the
Companys common stock, to be credited toward the purchase
price. Since the Company elected not to proceed with the
acquisition of the Triple J, the Company had no further use for
the property and allowed its option to expire on September 30,
1998. The Company previously wrote off the $75,000 down payment.
S-8 Registration
An S-8 registration statement was filed on July 28, 1998.
On August 21, 1998 E-Commerce West received its registration
number from the Securities & Exchange Commission making the
registration statement effective as of that date. The
Registration Number 333-59975 is for employees and consultants
and is for 750,000 common shares with the proposed maximum
offering price of $0.30 per share resulting in a proposed
maximum aggregate offering price of $225,000. A copy of this
registration statement is included as an exhibit with this
report.
Stock Issuances
The shares issued by the Company this quarter were:
- - on September 9, 1998 20,000 restricted common shares were
issued to Keith & Kristi Schillinger for their participation in
E-Commerce Wests Internet Web site from the treasury.
- - on October 26, 1998 25,000 restricted common shares were
issued as a bonus to Craig Mathias, the Companys outside
accountant from the treasury; 300,000 restricted common shares
were issued to Deb Berg from the treasury for her participation
in a variety of yet-to-be defined Internet Web sites. The
300,000 shares are provided to Ms. Berg with the understanding
that she will return 100,000 shares to the Company for each year
less than three that she provides services to the Company.
Issued to John Lowe for consulting services relative to the
Internet, 1,294 common shares from the Companys active S-8
registration # 33-34786 completing the issuance of the total
number of shares to be issued under the registration, plus 492
common shares from the Companys active S-8 registration #
333-32415.
Common Stock Trading Symbol Change
Reflecting the name change to E-Commerce West the trading
symbol for the common stock was changed from WINZ to ECOM on
August 7, 1998.
Sale of Slot Machines
The terms of the sale agreement of the slot machines
called for monthly payments commencing 60 days after the date of
the agreement and continuing for an extended period of time. As
the Company was in need of cash, the Company and the purchaser
agreed to an accelerated payment totaling $51,000 to complete
the transaction. The Company included a few separate bill
acceptors and its casino signage in the transaction.
Nevada Gaming Commission
In April, 1997 Royal Casino Group applied to the Nevada
Gaming Commission for a gaming license pursuant to its proposed
acquisition of the Triple J Casino in Henderson, Nevada. In
July, 1997 Royal Casino Group gave the Nevada Gaming Commission
$85,000 to begin their investigation into the background of the
Company and its officers and directors. As previously reported,
Royal Casino Group determined not to proceed with the
acquisition and requested permission from the Nevada Gaming
Commission to withdraw its application later that same month in
July, 1997. Both the Nevada Gaming Control Board and the Nevada
Gaming Commission voted to grant permission to allow Royal
Casino Group to withdraw its application in June, 1998. In
October, 1998 the Company received a refund of $38,000 of the
$85,000 deposited with the Nevada Gaming Commission.
Corporate Loans
Jon Elliott, the Companys President/CEO has not received
any cash compensation per the terms of his Employment Agreement
for the 17 month period from June, 1997 through October, 1998.
He owes the Company a total of $9,000 per loans of $3,000 on
August 5, 1998; $2,000 on August 28, 1998; and, $4,000 on
October 3, 1998. The loans have an interest rate of 5%, simple
interest, calculated annually.
Equipment Rental, Overhead Reimbursement, Rent, Support Services
The Company leases approximately 640 square feet for its
corporate headquarters in Deadwood, South Dakota for $400 per
month on a lease through April, 1999.
Consultants
The Company did not retain any consultants during this
quarter.
Subsequent Events
echristmastrees.com
On November 18, 1998 the Company launched the first of what
the Company plans are several seasonal Web sites. The site,
www.echristmastrees.com, sells two varieties of Christmas trees
in various sizes plus two types of Holiday wreaths. The
Companys goal this year was to brand the site. As such the
Company purchased over 4 million banner ads on popular Web
sites, such as www.usatoday.com. The Company retained the
services of the Internet public relations firm that promoted the
launch of Amazon.com, CoolShopping, ONSALE and
LinkExchange, all successful Web sites. The Company was the
beneficiary of significant publicity including an article in
Business Week Online, an article syndicated to over 800
newspapers by Bloomberg, a review by Yahoos Daily News and
many others. Of significance was the large number of measurable
banner ad responses as click-throughs from Internet users in
over 85 foreign countries. The Company interprets these results
as extemely encouraging as to its ability to create interesting
Web sites; creative advertising that produces results and an
array of products generating significant world-wide appeal, as
that is the future of the Internet.
New Internet Web Site
The Company continues to apply its time and money to the
development of its second retail Web site. Suppliers and
distribution arrangements are taking form. The Company
anticipates the launch will occur in the first quarter of
calendar year 1999. The Company will offer a product line
currently not offered on the Internet. The site will be a year
round retail site, and although it is premature to project the
amount of revenues, the Company believes the site will be
successful.
Proposed Wyatt, Missouri Riverboat Casino
The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has issued a
Water Certification Permit to the Company. The Company had been
previously advised this was the one remaining regulatory hurdle
prior to the Army Corps of Engineers proceeding to issue the
Section 404 permit necessary prior to the commencement of any
construction related to the Companys proposed Riverboat Casino
Entertainment Center. Although the Companys engineer has been
advised by representatives of the Corps that they plan to issue
the permit, the Company can not project a time frame for the
issuance.
Stock Issuance
On November 17, 1998 the Company issued 8,422 common
shares to Arthur Lovett for his assistance with the Companys
EDGAR compliance and, 35,000 common shares to Lucky Management
pursuant to its consulting agreement. Both issuances were from
the companys active S-8 registration, registration number
333-59975.
In November, 1998 the Company, in private transactions
with existing stockholders, placed 500,000 shares for $50,000.
The funds were used to launch, advertise, promote and cover
operating expenses for echristmastrees.com
Consultants
The Company retained the services of The Ward Group to
promote the launch of its initial Web site, echristmastrees.com.
Additionally, the Company retained the services of Lucky
Management as an Internet marketing consultant. Both
organizations were retained in November, 1998.
Regulatory Matters
The Company reached a settlement with the South Dakota
Department of Revenue over an alleged underpayment of sales and
use tax by Goldiggers for the period 1994-1997. An audit by the
Department demanded over $12,000 however the Company was able to
provide proof of payment reducing the amount claimed as owed to
under $5,000. Although the Company believes it could provide
additional proof of payment, it would be required to do so in a
trial at the State capitol in Pierre. The Company elected not
to pursue the costly endeavor of a trial as the costs of legal
fees, travel and accommodation could approach or exceed the
under $5,000 settlement amount.
Other Matters
In November, 1998 Jon Elliott, the Companys Chief
Executive Officer and a Director sold a total of 21,500 common
shares in three separate transactions at an average price of
$0.65 on the open market. All appropriate forms concerning the
aforementioned transactions were filed in a timely fashion with
the Securities & Exchange Commission.

Item 9. Undertakings
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
being
made, a post effective amendment to this
registration statement:
(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities
Act);
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of this registration

the most recent post-effective amendment
thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental
change in the information set forth in the
registration
statement; and
(iii)to include any material information with respect to the plan
of distribution not previously disclosed in the
registration statement or any material
change to such information in the

required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
those paragraphs which are contained in periodic reports
filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference
in this registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under
the Securities Act, each such

registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the registrant in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled bycontrolling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.

RE:
Registration Statement on Form S-8
Gentlemen:
At your request, we have examined the Registration Statement on
Form S-8, together with exhibits thereto, to be filed by you
relating to the registration of 750,000 shares of common stock,
$0.001 par value per share (the Common Stock), issuable in
connection with Royal Casino Group Inc., a Utah Corporation (the
Company) Consulting/Compensation plan (Plan). We are
familiar with the proceedings taken, and to be taken, by the
Company in connection with the issuance of shares of Common
Stock under the Plan and authorization of such issuance
thereunder, and have examined such documents and such questions
of law and fact as we deem necessary in order to express the
opinion hereinafter stated.
Based on the foregoing, it is our opinion that the shares of
Common Stock of the Company to be issued pursuant to the Plan
have been duly authorized, and that such Common Stock, when
issued in accordance with the terms of the Plan, will be legally
and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to
the above referenced Registration Statement .
Very truly yours,
LEONARD R. MILSTEIN
