ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT
Board of Directors
VERMILLION VENTURES, INC.
Salt Lake City, Utah
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed balance sheet of
Vermillion Ventures, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of
March 31, 2000, and the related condensed statements of
operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31,
2000 and 1999, and for the period from the re-entering of
development stage on January 1, 1996 through March 31, 2000. All
information included in these financial statements is the
representation of the management of Vermillion Ventures, Inc..
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. 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 condensed financial
statements reviewed by us, in order for them to be in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying condensed financial statements have been
prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.
As discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements, the company
has no on-going operations, has incurred substantial losses since
its inception, has liabilities in excess of assets and has no
working capital. These factors raise substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in
regards to these matters are also described in Note 7. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization - Vermillion Ventures, Inc. (the Company) was
organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 23,
1987. The Company was formed to acquire other operating
corporate entities. On March 15, 1988 The Company acquired all
of the outstanding stock of BMC Incorporated (BMC) by issuing
129,000,000 shares of common stock. BMC was unsuccessful in its
satellite bingo operations and was dissolved. During 1996,
Management determined it was in the best interest of the Company
to discontinue its previous operations. The Company is
considered to have re-entered into a new development stage on
January 1,1996. Because the Company discontinued its previous
operations and is seeking new potential business opportunities,
the Company adopted quasi-reorganization accounting procedures to
provide the Company a "fresh-start" for accounting purposes.
Condensed Financial Statements - The accompanying financial
statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows at March
31, 2000 and 1999 and for the periods then ended have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's December 31, 1999 audited financial
statements. The results of operations for the periods ended
March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results for the full year.
Development Stage - The Company is considered a development stage
company as defined in SFAS no. 7.
Loss Per Share - The computation of loss per share of common
stock is based on the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the periods presented, in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings
Per Share" [See Note 8].
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the statement of cash
flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt investments
purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles required
management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimated by management.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Continued]
Recently Enacted Accounting Standards - Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 132, "Employer's Disclosure about
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits", SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities",
SFAS No. 134, "Accounting for Mortgage-Backed Securities.", SFAS
No. 135, "Rescission of FASB Statement No. 75 and Technical
Corrections", SFAS No. 136, "Transfers of Assets to a not for

contributions for others", and SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - deferral of the
effective date of FASB statement No. 133 ( an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 133.)," were recently issued. SFAS No. 132, 133,
134, 135, 136 and 137 have no current applicability to the
Company or their effect on the financial statements would not
have been significant.
NOTE 2 - QUASI-REORGANIZATION
Subsequent to December 31, 1999 the shareholders of the Company
approved to adopted quasi-reorganization accounting procedures.
Quasi-reorganization accounting allowed the Company to eliminate
its previous retained (deficit) of $701,761 against additional
paid-in capital. Therefore, the adoption of quasi-reorganization
accounting procedures gave the Company a "fresh start" for
accounting purposes. The Company is also considered as re-
entering a new development stage on January 1, 1996, as it
discontinued all of its previous bingo operations. These
financial statements have been restated to reflect the change.
NOTE 3 - INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting
for Income Taxes" which requires the liability approach for the
effect of income taxes.
The Company has available at March 31, 2000, unused operating
loss carryforwards of approximately $24,800, which may be applied
against future taxable income and which expire in various years
through 2019. If certain substantial changes in the Company's
ownership should occur, there could be an annual limitation on
the amount of net operating loss carryforward which can be
utilized. The amount of and ultimate realization of the benefits
from the operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes is
dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, the future
earnings of the Company and other future events, the effects of
which cannot be determined. Because of the uncertainty
surrounding the realization of the loss carryforwards the Company
has established a valuation allowance equal to the tax effect of
the loss carryforwards (approximately $8,400) at March 31, 2000
and, therefore, no deferred tax asset has been recognized for the
loss carryforwards. The change in the valuation allowance is
equal to the tax effect of the current period's net loss
(approximately $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2000).
NOTE 4 - COMMON STOCK
On April 29, 1997 the company issued 666,667 shares of its
previously authorized but unissued common stock for services
rendered valued at $20,000 (or $.30 per share). The stock
issuance resulted in a change of control of the Company.

NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Management Compensation - During the periods presented, the
Company did not pay any compensation to its officers and
directors.
Office Space - The Company has not had a need to rent office
space. An officer/shareholder of the Company is allowing the
Company to use his office as a mailing address, as needed, at no
expense to the Company.
Capital Contributions - A shareholder paid expenses on behalf of
the Company, of $2,440 in 1999 and $100 in 1996. These have been
accounted for as contributions to capital.
NOTE 6 - COMMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Management believes that the Company is not liable for any
existing liabilities related to its former discontinued
operations. The Company is not currently named nor is it aware
of any such claims or suits against the Company. No amounts have
been reflected or accrued in these financial statements for any
contingent liability.
NOTE 7 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which
contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.
However, the Company has no on-going operations and has incurred
losses since its inception. Further, the Company has current
liabilities in excess of assets and has no working capital to pay
its expenses. These factors raise substantial doubt about the
ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. In this
regard, management is proposing to raise any necessary additional
funds not provided by operations through loans or through sales
of its common stock or through a possible business combination
with another company. There is no assurance that the Company
will be successful in raising this additional capital or
achieving profitable operations. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
these uncertainties.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION OR PLAN OF OPERATION
The Company has -0- in cash and $2,100 in current
liabilities in the form of accounts payable. The Company did not
generate any revenue during the quarterly period ended March 31,
2000. The Company has no material commitments for capital
expenditures for the next twelve months.
The Company believes that its current cash needs can be met
with the cash on hand and loans from officers and directors for
at least the next twelve months. However, should the Company
obtain a business opportunity, it may be necessary to raise
additional capital. This may be accomplished by loans from the
principals of the Company, debt financing, equity financing or a
combination of financing options.
