Item 1. Business
- -----------------
(a) General Development of the Business.
ASDAR INC (the "Company") was formed under the laws of the State of
Nevada on November 29, 1983 under the name Venture Group, Inc. In April
1985, the Company conducted an initial public offering of its securities
pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-18.
In 1987, the Company announced its Registration Distribution Program
("RDP"). The RDP was designed to assist privately-owned companies in
becoming publicly held. In exchange for financial consulting and other
services, the Company's RDP clients issued to the Company shares of common
stock and common stock purchase warrants, some or all of which were to be
subsequently registered by the client with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") in order to facilitate the public distribution of those
securities by the Company to its shareholders. Subsequently, the client
would attempt to raise equity capital from the exercise of the common stock
warrants.
In 1988, the SEC and the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc., ("NASD") reviewed the RDP and insisted on certain changes to the
program which reduced the overall benefits and incentives to the Company.
As a result of the SEC and NASD review, the Company determined it was
impracticable to continue the RDP and discontinued all efforts in its
business venture in 1990.
From 1990 to the filing of this report in April 2000, the Company has
conducted no business operations other than the pursuit of a merger, or
reverse acquisition with an active business operation interested in
restructuring itself as a publicly-held company and the define and
litigation of certain federal and state actions.
(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments

Item 2. Properties
- -------------------
The Company's offices are currently located in the residence of its
Secretary. The Company's Secretary does not charge the Company any rent or
overhead for its use of his residence or utilities.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
- --------------------------
In 1995, the Plaintiffs in a securities class action lawsuit obtained
a judgement against the Company in the amount of $2,500,000. In June,
1996, the Company's Secretary negotiated a Settlement whereby the
Plaintiffs released the Company in Consideration of the payment of $150,000
to the class and the issuance of 50,000 (post 1 for 100 reverse split
stock) to the Plaintiffs. In August, 1996, this transaction was approved
by the San Diego Superior Court, Judge Terry O'Rourke presiding, and was
finalized in March of 1997. As a result of this settlement the Company no
longer has a judgement against it.
In January, 1997, a shareholder of the Company filed a lawsuit against
the Registrant which was never served. The shareholder, however, attempted
to obtain a Default Judgement. The Default was granted but subsequently
reversed when the Registrant received notice of the Judgement and had it
set aside. In November, 1997, Registrant answered the complaint and filed
a counter claim neither of which, to date, have been responded to. The
Registrant intends to vigorously pursue this action.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Result of Operations
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company was formed under the laws of the State of Nevada on
November 29, 1983, under the name Venture Group, Inc. In April, 1985, the
Company conducted an initial public offering of its securities pursuant to
a Registrant Statement on Form S-18.
In 1987, the Company announced its Registration Distribution Program
("RDP"). The RDP was designed to assist privately owned companies in
becoming publicly held. In exchange for financial consulting and other
services, the Company's RDP clients issued to the Company shares of common
stock and common stock purchase warrants, some or all of which were to be
subsequently registered by the client with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") in order to facilitate the public distribution of those
securities by the Company to its shareholders. Subsequently, the client
would attempt to raise equity capital from the exercise of the common stock
purchase warrants.
In 1988, the SEC and the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc., ("NASD") reviewed the RDP and insisted on certain changes to the
program which reduced the overall benefits and incentives to the Company.
As a result of the SEC and NASD review, the Company determined it was
impracticable to continue the RDP and discontinued all efforts in its
business venture in 1990.
From 1990 to the filing of this report in April 2000, the Company has
conducted no business operations other than the pursuit of a merger or
reverse acquisition with an active business operation interested in
restructuring itself as a publicly-held company. In 1992, the Company
attempted to acquire the assets and operations of Royal Hill Resources
Corporation ("Royal Hill"). This acquisition failed when management of the
Registrant learned that Royal Hills had improperly accounted for its
assets. In the last half of 1992, the Company attempted to acquire certain
theme restaurants in Las Vegas, Nevada. These acquisitions never reached
fruition and were abandoned in January, 1995. On May 13, 1996, the
Company entered into an agreement with James A. Egide (the "Egide
Agreement") by which Mr. Egide agreed to advance $1,000,000 to the Company
to settle its class action lawsuit (referenced in Item 3 of this report)
and to initiate acquisition of a software license from Casino World
Holdings, Ltd. The Egide Agreement further required Mr. Egide to raise an
additional $4,000,000 to develop and operate an online casino operation.
After executing the Egide Agreement, the Company on May 13, 1996, entered
into an agreement with Casino World Holdings, Ltd., to purchase this
license by which the Company agreed to pay cash and issue stock to Casino
World Holdings, Ltd., in consideration for the license. The acquisition
failed due to adverse publicity and several questions concerning the
viability of the software and value of the license.
On January 25, 1997, the Company reached a settlement with James A.
Egide and Casino World Holdings, Ltd., by which the Company issued 500,000
share of its common stock to persons and issued a note in the amount of
$50,000 to James A. Egide. In addition, certain agreements were made
between Mr. Egide and Casino World Holdings, Ltd. Contemporaneously, each
of the parties issued full general releases to each other. A detailed copy
of the Settlement Agreement appears as Exhibit 10.9 of this filing.

Independent Auditors Report
Board of Directors
ASDAR INC
I have audited the accompanying balance sheets of ASDAR INC, as of December
31, 1997 & 1996, and the related statements of operations, stockholders'
equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1997 & 1996. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on my audit.
I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and the significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statements presentation. I believe that
my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the aforementioned financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of ASDAR INC, as of December
31, 1997 & 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the year ended December 31, 1997 & 1996, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note #4 to the
financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit and a negative
net worth at December 31, 1997. These factors raise substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note #4. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
NOTE #1 - Corporate Data
- ------------------------
ASDAR INC, (the Company), formerly known as the ASDAR Corporation, was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on November 29, 1983.
Its initial public offering was completed in April, 1985.
In 1987, the Company announced its Registration Distribution Program (RDP).
This Program was designed to assist privately owned companies to become
publicly-held. In exchange for financial consulting and other services,
the Company's shareholders received shares and warrants for the right to
purchase additional shares, which are registered and issued by the client
Company. The Company also may receive a certain percentage of the shares
and warrants offered by the client Company. Subsequently, the client
Company may raise equity capital via proceeds from the exercise of its
common stock purchase warrants.
During 1988, the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) and the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., (NASD) reviewed and recommended
changes to the RDP structure, reducing certain benefits and incentives to
the Company and its principals, and improving the benefits to the public
shareholders of the Company.
In 1990, the Company discontinued its efforts in this business venture.
NOTE #2 - Significant Accounting Policies
- -----------------------------------------
1 The Company uses the accrual method of accounting.
2 Revenues and directly related expenses are recognized in the period
when the goods are shipped to the customer.
3 The Company considers all short term, highly liquid investments that
are readily convertible, within three months, to known amounts as cash
equivalents. The Company currently has no cash equivalents.
4 Primary Earnings Per Share amounts are based on the weighted average
number of shares outstanding at the dates of the financial statements.
Fully Diluted Earnings Per Shares shall be shown on stock options and
other convertible issues that may be exercised within ten years of the
financial statement dates.
5 The cost of furniture and equipment was depreciated over an estimated
useful life of five years using the straight-line method. It is the
general practice of the Company to charge maintenance and repairs to
expense; major expenditures for renewals and betterments are
capitalized and are subjected to depreciation over their useful lives.
Upon disposal or retirement, the cost of assets and related
accumulated depreciation are eliminated and any gain or loss is
included in operations.
6 Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could
defer from those estimates.
