NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
NOTE 1 -- ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization of the Company
Breakthrough Electronics, Inc., formerly Golden Queens Mining
Company, was incorporated on July 31, 1986 under the laws of the' State of
Nevada. The Company changed its name to Breakthrough Electronics, Inc. on
June 10, 1987. The change was in response to the Company's new business focus
of developing an electronic telephone screening device then known as
"Phoneguard". Phoneguard was acquired through the issuance of common stock
with no acquisition cost assigned. The Company is still in the development
stage, as it has virtually no revenue to date. Efforts to develop and market
the electronic screening device were discontinued several years ago.
The Company is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of common
stock, $.001 par value. Over the years, the Company has raised capital under
both public offerings as well as private stock sales. The Company intended to
utilize capital raised to complete the research and development of
Phoneguard, and then implement a marketing plan thereafter. As of the
reporting date, the Company has expended all of the capital raised, without
completing the intended task. As of the reporting date, the Company has
ceased any and all operations, and its technology has rapidly become
outdated. Currently, the Company's sole business focus, is the contemplation
of acquiring, or being acquired by, an existing company via either purchase
or merger. The Company has begun preliminary discussions with potential
candidate companies, but has not as of the date of this report come to any
contractual arrangement.
The financial statements reflect certain capital equipment items
which have been fully expensed either from previous depreciation expense or
loss on asset abandonment. The total original expenditures for all capital
equipment has been included in losses to date, and is not segregated in the
statement of cash flows.

offering which raised $ 201,500 and $ 245,000 through the sale of 503,750 and
612,500 units respectively. Each unit consisted of 4 shares of common stock
and 1 warrant to purchase common stock. on December 17, 1987, 162,500
warrants were exercised to purchase 40,625 shares of common stock for a total
of $ 6,094. Four warrants entitled the shareholders to purchase 1 share of
common stock at $.15 per share. The Company incurred approximately $ 65,000
in costs related to this offering.
On December 28, 1987 the Company issued a Notice of Call of Warrants
to the shareholders. The call price of the warrant was $.001 per warrant. All
warrants which were not exercised or tendered back to the Company by February
1, 1988 expired.
On February 1, 1988, 895,976 warrants were exercised to purchase
223,994 shares of common stock for $30,656.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
NOTE 4 GENERAL INFORMATION
The company entered into an agreement with Cipher Voice, Inc.,(CVI)
whereby it granted CVI an exclusive license to the use of the Company's
Phoneguard technology. The license agreement provided for a profit sharing
arrangement based on anticipated future sales of the Phoneguard. CVI also
raised capital through a public offering during 1994. The intent of CVI was
to attempt to complete the research and development of Phoneguard. As was the
case with the Company, CVI never completed its intended task, and expended
all of its capital and has ceased operations as of the reporting date. CVI
has subsequently been purchased by a third party unrelated company. Both the
Company and CVI were founded by Barry Rose, who at one time served as
President of both CVI and the Company.
It is uncertain, as of the issuance date of these financial
statements, as to the marketability or value of the research and development
efforts of the Company or CVI. Management has indicated that it feels that
given the rapid advancements ongoing in the technology field, as well as the
passage of time, that there is limited or no value to the technology. If the
Company were to be acquired by another entity, consideration should be given
to any residual value of the research and development to date.
During 1995, the company and Barry Rose agreed to an arrangement
whereby Rose returned 11,813,850 shares of common stock to the company in the
form of Treasury Stock.
During August 1998, the Company obtained consents from a majority of
stockholders authorizing a reverse split of the Company's Common Stock, on a
1 for 100 basis. The split became effective during February 1999. All
references to shares outstanding and earnings per share have been adjusted to
reflect the effect of the reverse split on a retroactive basis.

PART I - ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(1) CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This quarterly report contains certain forward-looking statements
and information relating to the Company that are based on the beliefs of the
Company or management as well as assumptions made by and information
currently available to the Company or management. When used in this document,
the words "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect" and "intend" and
similar expressions, as they relate to the Company or its management, are
intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the
current view of the Company regarding future events and are subject to
certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including the risks and
uncertainties noted. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties
materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results
may vary materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed,
estimated, expected or intended. In each instance, forward-looking
information should be considered in light of the accompanying meaningful
cautionary statements herein.
(2) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Breakthrough Electronics, Inc. (Company) was incorporated as "Queens
Mining Company" on July 31, 1986 under the laws of the State of Nevada,
primarily for the purpose of exploration, development and production of
certain mining properties located in Esmeralda County, Nevada. In July, 1987,
the Company changed its name to "Breakthrough Electronics, Inc.," terminated
its activities in the mining business, and began efforts to develop and
market electronic products, including a telephone device designed to screen
telephone calls, acquired from its then President.
The Company has had no operations or significant assets or
liabilities over the past several years. Accordingly, the Company is
dependent upon management and/or significant shareholders to provide
sufficient working capital to preserve the integrity of the corporate entity
during this phase. It is the intent of management and significant
shareholders to provide sufficient working capital necessary to support and
preserve the integrity of the corporate entity.
(3) LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has no operations, and essentially no assets or
liabilities and, accordingly is fully dependent upon its controlling
shareholder for operating capital. During the period(s) presented herein, the
Company was dormant and no advances were made or expenses paid on the
Company's behalf.
The Company has no specific plans or future capital requirements due
to its dormant state. However, the Company will seek to enter into a business
acquisition or reorganization with an enterprise, as yet unidentified. At
such time as the Company enters into a transaction, of which there can be no
assurance, the Company will require additional capital.
