Notes to Financial Statements
Basis of Consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Initio,
Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Initio Acquisition Corp.
(formerly named Deerskin Trading Post, Inc.), hereinafter collectively
referred to as the "Company". All material intercompany transactions
and balances have been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts have
been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.
Use of Estimates:
Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenue and expenses and consequently stockholders'
equity. Examples include estimates of future revenues and expenses.
Actual results may differ from these estimates.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information in response to the requirements of
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the
opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustment (consisting only of normal recurring items)
necessary to present fairly the financial position as of July 31st,
2000; results of operations for the three months ended July 31st,
2000, and 1999; cash flows for the three months ended July 31st, 2000
and 1999; for further information, refer to the Company's financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for
the year ended April 30th, 2000. The Balance sheet at April 30th,
2000 was derived from the audited financial statements as of that
date. Results of Operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of annual results of operations.
Income per Share:
Basic Income per Common Share has been computed based upon the
weighted average number of actually outstanding shares of the
Company's common stock. Diluted Income per Common Share includes
common shares associated with certain outstanding employee stock
options and a portion of the Company's subordinated convertible
debenture.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards:
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities", which establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts. As of July 31,
2000, this pronouncement would have no effect on the accompanying
financial statements.

RECENT EVENTS
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and the Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis provides information which
management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of
the Company's results of operations and financial condition. The
discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's Financial
Statements and Notes thereto.
Management's discussion and analysis contains "forward-looking
statements" about the Company's future prospects. These statements
are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual
results to differ materially from those expected by Management.
Readers are therefore cautioned not to rely upon any such forward-
looking beliefs or judgements in making investment decisions.
Results of Operations:
As of April 30, 1999 the Company sold substantially all of the
operating assets of its catalog business. In May 1999 the Company sold
its facility in Peabody, Massachusetts to an unrelated party. These
transactions resulted in a gain, net of income taxes of approximately
$1,500,000. Since that time the Company has been in the process of
identifying new business opportunities.
The Company's revenues, excluding gains on the sale of marketable
securities which are transactional in nature and vary from period to
period, decreased by approximately $76,000 during the quarter. The
decrease was primarily attributable to the termination of the lease
for the Company's Nevada facility and the termination of management
fee income from the buyer of the Company's catalog business. The
Company's general, administrative and interest expenses decreased by
approximately $ 61,000.
In the period ended July 31st, 1999, the Company recorded a gain on
the sale of discontinued operations of $1,503,986 (net of income
taxes). No such gain was recorded in the current period. As a
consequence of the foregoing the company reported net income in the
period ended July 31st, 2000 of $11,477 versus $2,442,455 in the
period ended July 31st, 1999.
On July 20th, 2000 the Company entered into a merger agreement with
IncuLab, Inc. ( a Delaware Corporation). IncuLab is a company, which
provides services to and invests in high tech early stage companies
and is in the process of building a high tech launch center in
Manhattan, which will market space as well as professional consulting
and financial services to internet and other high tech early stage
companies.
8.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and the Results of Operations (Continued).
The merger agreement provides that Initio will have a 2 for 3 reverse
split and thereafter will issue approximately 27,870,000 shares of the
common stock of Initio, Inc. so that immediately after such merger the
former shareholders of IncuLab shall own approximately 90% of the
issued and outstanding shares and the other Initio, Inc. shareholders
shall own 10% thereof.
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
In May, 1999, when the sale of its catalog operations was consummated,
the Company received approximately $ 552,000 in cash, a $ 3,400,000
convertible debenture of the purchaser and was released from $
2,000,000 of its subordinated debentures. Additionally, in connection
with the sale of its Peabody, Massachusetts facility in May, 1999, the
Company received approximately $ 253,000 in cash and a $ 275,000
mortgage note from the purchaser.
As of July 31st , 2000 the Company had approximately $ 3,230,159 in
cash and marketable securities.
The sale in May, 1999 of the Company's catalog operations also reduced
its long-term liability on the subordinated debenture from $ 3,500,000
to $ 1,500,000. As of July 31, 2000 the Company's liabilities,
excluding the subordinated debenture and the mortgage payable, was
approximately $ 98,000.
