Board of Directors
Adven, Inc.
We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheets of Adven, Inc. as of
September 30, 2000, and the related statements of operations, stockholders'
equity, and cash flows for the three and nine months then ended, in
accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services
issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. All
information included in these financial statements is the representation of
the management of Adven, Inc.
A review consists principally of inquiries of Company personnel and
analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in
scope than an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards,
the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such
an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to
be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The balance sheet for the period ended December 31, 1999, was audited by us,
and we expressed an unqualified opinion on it in our audit report dated
February 10, 2000, but we have not performed any auditing procedures since
that date.
As discussed in Note 1, certain conditions indicate that the Company may be
unable to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements
do not include any adjustments to the financial statements that might be
necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STAEMENTS
September 30, 2000 (unaudited)
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
The Company was incorporated in the State of Washington on August 22, 1986,
as a subchapter C corporation for income tax purposes. The Company has no
operations at this time.
The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will
continue as a going concern. The Company has sustained recurring losses over
the past years and currently has no source of operating income. The
Company's cash flow and existing credit are insufficient to fund the
Company's cash flow need based on the expenses expected to be incurred during
the next year. The President of the Company intends to advance funds as
necessary to fund the cash flow needs of the Company.
The preparation of financial statements for the three-months and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 2000, have been prepared by the Company without
audit by the Company's independent auditors. In the opinion of the Company's
management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company as of
September 30, 2000, and for the periods then ended have been made. Those
adjustments consist only of normal and recurring adjustments. The balance
sheet of the company as of December 31, 1999, was derived from the audited
financial statements of the Company as of that date.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting standards requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the company considers all highly
liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of three months or less to be
cash equivalents. The Company has no cash equivalents as of September 30,
2000.
Public Offering
The Company registered 15,000,000 of its common stock shares with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and made an initial public offering of
5,000,000 shares at $.03 per share in 1987.
Capitalization
The Company has authorized 20,000,000 shares of common stock, and has
5,69,667 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
Fixed Assets
Depreciation expense is provided for on a straight-line basis over the
estimated useful lives of owned assets.
Loss per share
Basic loss per share for each period is computed by dividing net loss by the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the
period.
2. Investment
FASB No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities," requires that all applicable equity securities be classified as
either trading of available for sale. The Company classified the investment
in Grand Slam Treasures, Inc., formally Parks America!, Inc., as available
for sale at December 31, 1999. FASB No. 115 also requires that all available
for sale securities be reported at fair value, with any unrealized losses
included as a part of comprehensive income and as a separate component of
stockholders' equity until the losses are realized (net of the effect of
income taxes). The fair market value and the unrealized loss of the Grand
Slam Treasurers, Inc. investment at September 30, 2000, were $36,138 and
$361,385 respectively.
3. Supply and Licensed Manufacturing Agreement
On March 17, 1997, the Company entered into a supply and licensed
manufacturing agreement with DI International, Inc., a Barbados corporation.
Pursuant to the agreement, the Company received the exclusive right to
formulate, manufacture, sell, distribute, and put into use two products,
the first a plant growing medium that aids the use of hydroponics, and the
second an oil absorbent urethane foam. The Company'' rights to these
products extend only to Australia and New Zealand.
During 1998, Adven, Inc. became aware that a company located in the Isle of
Man claimed that it owns the patent on one of the products and that DIS
International, Inc. has no rights to the product at all. The claimant is
suing DIS International, Inc. in Canada. The lawsuit is till ongoing as of
September 30, 2000.
In June 1999, the Company filed suit against DIS International, Inc., to void
its supply and licensed manufacturing agreement with DIS International, Inc.,
and to obtain a refund of all monies paid as well as Adven common stock
issued to DIS International, Inc. Currently, this lawsuit is pending.
4. Provision for Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and benefits for the expected
future tax impact of the transactions that have been accounted for
differently for book and tax purposes.
Deferred tax benefits and liabilities are calculated using enacted tax rates
in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A
valuation allowance has been provided to reduce the asset to the amount of
tax benefit management believes it will more likely than not realize. As
time passes, management will be able to better assess the amount of tax
benefit it will realize from using the carryforward.
Deferred tax benefits and liabilities are calculated using enacted tax rates
in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The
following is a schedule of the composition of the provision for income taxes.
September 30, 2000
Deferred noncurrent tax asset $439,604
Valuation allowance (439,604)
Total provision for income taxes 0
Deferred federal income taxes consist of future tax benefits and liabilities
attributed to:
September 30, 2000
Loss carry forward $316,733
Loss on available for sale
Securities 122,871
Net deferred income tax 0
The net change in valuation account at September 30,2000 was $(64,112).

5. Related Party Transactions
During 1999, the President of Adven, Inc. paid a $5,000 legal reainer on
behalf of the Company and during the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
he advanced the Company and additional $20,000. Both advances are due on
demand and carry an interest rate of 8%.
6. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 107, "Disclosure
about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," is a part of a continuing process
by the FASB to improve information of financial instruments. The following
methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value
disclosures for such financial instruments a defined by the Statement.
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and prepaid
expenses approximate fair value at September 30, 2000.
The Carrying amount and the estimated fair value for the investment in Grand
Slam Treasures, Inc. at September 30, 2000, was $36,138. The estimated fair
value of this investment is based on the quoted market price.
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for both the accounts
payable and the shareholder advance at September 30, 2000, approximate fair
values because the maturities are less than one year in duration.
