PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
History, Organization and Change of Control.
Lahaina Acquisitions, Inc ("Lahaina" or the "Company") was organized
under the laws of the State of Colorado, on April 5, 1989, to make a
distribution of securities to shareholders of Coyote Acquisitions, Inc.
("Coyote"). Lahaina filed a Form S-10 registration statement (33-31031-D) with
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") but
subsequently abandoned the same. Lahaina subsequently decided to make a
distribution of securities to the shareholders of St. Joseph Corp. ("St. Joe"),
a shell corporation. In May, 1991, Lahaina gifted to the shareholders of St. Joe
on a pro rata basis, 496,500 "Units" (as described herein). Each Unit consisted
of one share of Lahaina Common Stock ("Common Shares"), two Class A Warrants and
two Class B Warrants (collectively referred to as the "Warrants"). Each Class A
Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one (1) share of Common Stock at a price
of $1.00 per share. Each Class B Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one
share of Common Stock at price of $1.50 per share. Lahaina reserved the right to
redeem the Warrants upon 30 days' written notice at $0.0001 per Warrant. The
Warrants were due to expire in May, 1995; however, the Board of Directors
extended the exercise period until May 15, 1999.
In August 1989, Lahaina issued a total of 1,000,000 shares of Common
Stock. 800,000 shares were issued to Gary Agron; 50,000 shares were issued to
Barry Swartz; 50,000 shares were issued to James Eller; and 100,000 shares were
issued to Coyote Acquisitions, Inc. ("Coyote"). The shares issued to Coyote were
part of 100,000 Units issued to Coyote, each Unit
2
<PAGE> 3
consisting of one share of Common Stock; five Class A Warrants, exercisable at
$1.00 per share; and five Class B Warrants, exercisable at $1.50 per share (the
"Coyote Unit").
On April 24, 1991, Mr. Swartz gratuitously reconveyed his 50,000
shares to Lahaina; Mr. Eller gratuitously reconveyed his 50,000 shares to
Lahaina; and Mr. Agron gratuitously reconveyed his 400,000 shares to Lahaina. On
the same date, the Units issued to Coyote Acquisitions, Inc. were canceled and
50,000 shares of Common Shares were issued to Philip Davis, Lahaina's President,
and to Janice Agron, for services rendered.
In May, 1991, Lahaina gifted 496,500 Units (as described herein) to
shareholders of St. Joe (the "St. Joe Units"). The purpose of the distribution
was to cause the shares of Lahaina to be widely held, in anticipation of
creating a public market for the Company's securities. Lahaina has no operating
history nor any revenues or earnings from operations. Lahaina has no significant
assets or financial resources. As such, Lahaina can be defined as a "shell"
company, whose sole purpose at this time is to locate and consummate a merger or
acquisition with a private entity.
On May 23 1997, Paxford Investments, S.A., a Bahamian corporation
(the "Corporation" or "Paxford"), consummated a Stock Purchase Agreement ( the
"Agreement") with Philip J. Davis, John C. Lee and Charles C. Van Gundy (the
"Selling Shareholders") whereby the Corporation purchased Seven Hundred and
Fifty Thousand (750,000) shares of Lahaina Common Stock from Philip J. Davis
(selling 366,667 shares), John C. Lee (selling 366,667 shares), and Charles C.
Van Gundy (selling 16,666 shares), representing approximately Seventy Five and
26/100 percent (85.26%) issued and outstanding stock of Lahaina. In
consideration for the shares, the Selling Shareholders received One Hundred and
Twenty Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($125,000.) cash. In addition, pursuant
to the Agreement, the Board of Directors of Lahaina, as of May 23, 1997, have
accepted the return of, and canceled, 380,000 Class A Warrants issued to Philip
J. Davis, 380,000 Class A Warrants issued to John C. Lee and 40,000 Class A
Warrants issued to Charles C. Van Gundy and accepted the return of, and
canceled,
3
<PAGE> 4
380,000 Class B Warrants issued to Philip J. Davis, 380,000 Class B Warrants
issued to John C. Lee and 40,000 Class B Warrants issued to Charles C. Van
Gundy. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company has accepted the resignations of
the Board of Directors, as of May 27, 1997, consisting of Philip J. Davis, John
C. Lee and Charles C. Van Gundy and appointed Graham Cooper, Ivy Lynn Cassar,
and John Burrow, all of whom are affiliated with Paxford, to serve on Lahaina's
Board of Directors. On May 30, 1997, the Board of Directors authorized the
redemption of all outstanding Class A and Class B Warrants of Lahaina. All
outstanding Class A and Class B Warrants have been redeemed or canceled.
Lahaina believes that there is a demand by non-public corporations
for shell corporations that have a public distribution of securities, such as
itself. Lahaina believes that the demand for shells has increased dramatically
since the Commission imposed burdensome requirements upon "blank check"
companies pursuant to Reg. 419 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act"). According to the Commission, Rule 419 was designed to strengthen
regulation of securities offerings by "blank check" companies, which Congress
found to have been a common vehicle for fraud and manipulation in the penny
stock market. See Securities Act Releases No. 6891 (April 17, 1991), 48 SEC
Docket 1131 and No. 6932 (April 13, 1992) 51 Docket 0382, SEC Docket 0382. The
foregoing regulation substantially decreased the number of "blank check"
offerings filed with the Commission, and, as a result, increased the demand for
shell corporations. While Lahaina has made the foregoing assumption, there is no
assurance that the same is accurate or correct and, accordingly, no assurance
that it will be acquired by or acquire an existing non-public entity.
GENERAL
Lahaina proposes to seek, investigate and, if warranted, acquire an
interest in one or more business opportunities or ventures. As of the date
hereof, Lahaina has no business opportunities or ventures under contemplation
for acquisition, but proposes to investigate potential
4
<PAGE> 5
opportunities in the form of investors or entrepreneurs with a concept which has
not yet been placed in operation, or in the form of firms which are developing
companies. Lahaina may seek out established businesses which may be experiencing
financial or operational difficulties and could benefit from the limited
additional capital it could provide. Lahaina anticipates that it will seek to
merge with or acquire an existing business. After the merger or acquisition has
taken place, the surviving entity will be Lahaina; however, management from the
acquired entity will, in all likelihood, operate the Company. There is, however,
a remote possibility that Lahaina may seek to acquire and operate an ongoing
business, in which case the existing management might be retained. Due to the
absence of capital available for investment by Lahaina, the types of businesses
seeking to be acquired by Lahaina will no doubt be smaller and higher risk types
of businesses. In all likelihood, a business opportunity will involve the
acquisition of or merger with a corporation which does not need additional cash
but which desires to establish a public trading market for its Common Shares.
Accordingly, Lahaina's ability to acquire any business of substance will be
extremely limited.
Lahaina does not propose to restrict its search for investment
opportunities to any particular industry, or geographical location and may,
therefore, engage in essentially any business, anywhere, to the extent of its
limited resources.
It is anticipated that business opportunities will be available to
Lahaina and sought by it from various sources throughout the United States,
including its Officers and Directors, professional advisors such as attorneys
and accountants, securities broker/dealers, venture capitalists, members of the
financial community, other businesses and others who may present solicited and
unsolicited proposals. The reason for this is to attract the most favorable
business opportunities, and ventures available. Management believes that
business opportunities and ventures will become available to it, due to a number
of factors, including, among others: (a) management's willingness to enter into
unproven, speculative ventures; (b) management's contacts and acquaintances; and
(c) Lahaina's flexibility with respect to the manner in which it
5
<PAGE> 6
may structure potential financing and/or acquisitions. However, there is no
assurance that Lahaina will be able to structure or finance and/or acquire any
business opportunity or venture.
Operation of Lahaina
Lahaina intends to search throughout the United States and Canada
for a merger/acquisition candidate; however, because of the lack of capital, the
company believes that the merger/acquisition candidate will be conducting
business within a limited geographical area. Lahaina, however, intends to
maintain its corporate headquarters and principal place of business at 5459
South Iris Street, Littleton, Colorado 80123. All corporate records will be
maintained at said office, and it is anticipated that all shareholders' meetings
will take place in Colorado. Upon consummation of any merger or acquisition, no
assurance can be given that the corporate records or headquarters will continue
to be maintained at Littleton, Colorado, or that shareholders' meetings will be
held in Colorado.
The Officers and Directors will personally seek acquisition/merger
candidates and/or orally contact individuals or broker/dealers and advise them
of the availability of Lahaina as an acquisition candidate. The Officers and
Directors will review material furnished to them by the proposed
merger/acquisition candidates and decide if a merger/acquisition is in the best
interests of the company and its shareholders.
Lahaina may employ outside consultants; however, until a
merger/acquisition candidate has been targeted by the Company, management
believes that it is impossible to consider the criteria that will be used to
hire consultants. While Lahaina may hire independent consultants, it has not
considered any criteria regarding their experience, the services to be provided
or the term of service. Lahaina has not had any discussions with any consultants
and there are no agreements or understandings with any consultants.
6
<PAGE> 7
Other than as disclosed herein, there are no other plans for
accomplishing the business purpose of Lahaina.
Selection of Opportunities
The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or
under the supervision of the Officers and Directors, none of whom is a
professional business analyst or has any previous training or experience in
business analysis. Inasmuch as Lahaina will have no funds available to it in its
search for business opportunities or ventures, it will not be able to expend
significant funds on a complete and exhaustive investigation of such business or
opportunity. Lahaina will, however, to the extent believed reasonable by its
management, investigate such potential business opportunities or ventures.
As part of Lahaina's investigation, Officers and Directors will meet
personally with management and key personnel of the firm sponsoring the business
opportunity, may visit and inspect plants and facilities, obtain independent
analysis or verification of certain information provided, check references of
management and key personnel, and conduct other reasonable measures, to the
extent of Lahaina's limited financial resources and management and technical
expertise.
Prior to making a decision to participate in a business opportunity
or venture, Lahaina will generally request that it be provided with written
materials regarding the business opportunity containing such items as a
description of products, services and company history; management resumes;
financial information; available projections with related assumptions upon which
they are based; evidence of existing patents, trademarks or service marks or
rights thereto; present and proposed forms of compensation to management; a
description of transactions between the prospective entities and its affiliates
during relevant periods; a description of present
7
<PAGE> 8
and required facilities; an analysis of risks and competitive conditions; and
other information deemed relevant.
It is anticipated that the investigation of specific business
opportunities and the negotiation, drafting, and execution of relevant
agreements, disclosure documents, and other instruments will require substantial
management time and attention and costs for accountants, attorneys, and others
Lahaina will have unrestricted flexibility in seeking, analyzing,
and participating in business opportunities. In its efforts, Lahaina will
consider the following kinds of factors:
(a) Potential for growth, indicated by new technology, anticipated
market expansion or new products;
(b) Competitive position as compared to other firms engaged in
similar activities;
(c) Strength of management;
(d) Capital requirements and anticipated availability of required
funds from future operations, through the sale of additional securities, through
joint ventures or similar arrangements or from other sources; and
(e) Other relevant factors.
Potentially available business opportunities may occur in many
different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will
make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business
opportunities extremely difficult and complex. Potential investors must
recognize that due to Lahaina's limited capital available for investigation and
management's
8
<PAGE> 9
limited experience in business analysis, Lahaina may not discover or adequately
evaluate adverse facts about the opportunity to be acquired.
Lahaina is unable to predict when it may participate in a business
opportunity. It expects, however, that the analysis of specific proposals and
the selection of a business opportunity may take several months or more. Lahaina
does not plan to raise any capital at the present time, by private placements,
public offerings, pursuant to Regulation S promulgated under the Act, or by any
means whatsoever. Further, there are no plans, proposals, arrangements or
understandings with respect to the sale or issuance of additional securities
prior to the location of an acquisition or merger candidate.
Form of Acquisition
The manner in which Lahaina participates in an opportunity will
depend upon the nature of the opportunity, the respective needs and desires of
Lahaina and the promoters of the opportunity, and the relative negotiating
strength of Lahaina and such promoters. The exact form or structure of Lahaina's
participation in a business opportunity or venture will be dependent upon the
needs of the particular situation. Lahaina's participation may be structured as
an asset purchase agreement, a lease, a license, a joint venture, a partnership,
a merger, or acquisition of securities.
As set forth above, Lahaina may acquire its participation in a
business opportunity through the issuance of Common Shares or other securities
in the Company. Although the terms of any such transaction cannot be predicted,
it should be noted that in certain circumstances the criteria for determining
whether or not an acquisition is so-called "tax free" reorganization under
Section 368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, may depend
upon the issuance to the shareholders of the acquired company of at least eighty
percent (80%) of the Common Shares of the combined entities immediately
following the reorganization. If a
9
<PAGE> 10
transaction were structured to take advantage of these provisions rather than
other "tax free" provisions provided under the Internal Revenue Code, all prior
shareholders may, in such circumstances, retain twenty percent (20%) or less of
the total issued and outstanding Common Shares. If such a transaction were
available to the Company, it will be necessary to obtain shareholder approval to
effectuate a reverse stock split or to authorize additional shares of Common
Shares prior to completing such acquisition. This could result in substantial
additional dilution to the equity of those who were shareholders of the Company
prior to such reorganization. Further, extreme caution should be exercised by
any investor relying upon any tax benefits in light of the proposed new tax
laws. It is possible that no tax benefits will exist at all. Prospective
investors should consult their own legal, financial, and other business
advisors.
The present management and the shareholders of Lahaina in all
likelihood will not have control of a majority of the voting shares of the
Company following a reorganization transaction. In fact, it is most probable
that the shareholders of the acquired entity will gain control of the Company.
Further, management may issue additional securities to make available for
purchase by shareholders of the acquired entity up to 90% of the shares of
Common Shares. As part of such a transaction, all or a majority of Lahaina's
Directors may resign and new Directors may be appointed without any vote by
shareholders.
Present shareholders have not agreed to vote their respective shares
of Common Shares in accordance with the vote of the majority of all
non-affiliated future shareholders of the Company with respect to any business
combination.
Lahaina is required by the regulations promulgated under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to obtain and file with the Commission, audited
financial statements of the acquisition candidate not later than sixty days from
the date the Form 8-K is due at the Commission disclosing the
acquisition/merger.
10
<PAGE> 11
Rights of Dissenting Shareholders
Under the Colorado Corporation Code, a business combination
typically requires the approval of two thirds of the outstanding shares of both
participating companies. The Company's Articles of Incorporation reduce the
voting requirement to a majority of the Company's outstanding Common Stock.
Shareholders who vote against any business combination in certain instances may
be entitled to dissent and to obtain payment for their shares pursuant to
Sections 7-113-102 and 7-113-103 of the Colorado Corporation Code. The
requirement of approval of the Company's shareholders in any proposed business
combination is limited to those transactions identified as a merger or a
consolidation. A business combination identified as a share exchange does not
require the approval of the Company's shareholders, nor does it entitle
shareholders to dissent and obtain payment for their shares. Accordingly, unless
the acquisition is a statutory merger requiring shareholder approval, the
Company will not provide shareholders with a disclosure document containing
audited or unaudited financial statements, prior to such acquisition.
Prior to any business combination for which shareholder approval is
required, the Company intends to provide to its shareholders complete disclosure
documentation concerning the business opportunity or target company and its
business. Such disclosure will in all likelihood be in the form of a proxy
statement which will be distributed to shareholders at least 20 days prior to
any shareholder's meeting.
Not an "Investment Adviser"
Lahaina is not an "investment adviser" under the Federal Investment
Advisers Act of 1940, which classification would involve a number of negative
considerations. Accordingly, the Company will not furnish or distribute advice,
counsel, publications, writings, analysis or reports
11
<PAGE> 12
to anyone relating to the purchase or sale of any securities within the
language, meaning and intent of Section 2(a)(11) of the Investment Advisers Act
of 1940, 15 U.S.C. 80b2(a)(11).
Not an "Investment Company"
Lahaina may become involved in a business opportunity through
purchasing or exchanging the securities of such business. Lahaina does not
intend however, to engage primarily in such activities and is not registered as
an "investment company" under the Federal Investment Company Act of 1940. The
company believes such registration is not required.
Lahaina must conduct its activities so as to avoid becoming
inadvertently classified as a transient "investment company" under the Federal
Investment Company Act of 1940, which classification would affect the company
adversely in a number of respects. Section 3(a) of the Investment Company Act
provides the definition of an "investment company" which excludes an entity
which does not engage primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or
trading in securities, or which does not engage in the business of investing,
owning, holding or trading "investment securities" (defined as "all securities
other than United States government securities or securities of majority-owned
subsidiaries") the value of which exceeds forty percent (40%) of the value of
its total assets (excluding government securities, cash or cash items). Lahaina
intends to implement its business plan in a manner which will result in the
availability of this exemption from the definition of "investment company."
Lahaina proposes to engage solely in seeking an interest in one or more business
opportunities or ventures.
Employees
Lahaina is a development stage company and currently has no
employees other than certain of its officers and directors. Management of the
Company expects to use consultants, attorneys, and accountants as necessary, and
does not anticipate a need to engage any full-time
12
<PAGE> 13
employees long as it is seeking and evaluating business opportunities. The need
for employees and their availability will be addressed in connection with the
decision whether or not to acquire or participate in a specific business
opportunity.
Subsequent Events
On December 14, 1998, the Company completed the purchase of all of
the outstanding stock of Beachside Commons I, Inc. from Mongoose Investments,
LLC. The purchase was effective as of December 7, 1998. Beachside is the owner
of a commercial real estate development located on Fernandina Beach, Florida in
the resort area of Amelia Island in northeast Florida.
The Company paid for Beachside stock with 1,250,000 shares of its
Common Stock; 1,910,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock which is convertible
into 1,910,000 shares of Common Stock, and $667,500 in cash which was a portion
of $750,000 borrowed by the Company from GCA Strategic Investments Limited under
a Note. The Note and a related Warrant are convertible into an additional
estimated 800,000 to 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock.
At the same time Mongoose purchased 750,000 shares of Common Stock
from Paxford Investments, Limited, an existing shareholder, for $300,000.
As a result of these transactions, a change in control of the
Company has occurred and Mongoose, whose Managing Member is Richard P. Smyth,
owns 2,000,000 of the 2,246,500 shares of Common Stock outstanding after the
transaction. In addition, Mongoose could own an additional 1,910,000 shares of
Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock.
13
<PAGE> 14
The previous directors have resigned, but, before resigning, elected
Richard P. Smyth, Gerald F. Sullivan, Sidney E. Brown and D. Nelson Lester as
director of the Company. The Board of Directors also elected Mr. Smyth as
Chairman, CEO and Treasurer and Mr. Sullivan as Vice Chairman and Secretary.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Lahaina's offices are located at 5459 South Iris Street, Littleton.
Colorado 80123, and the telephone number is (303) 932-9998. Lahaina's office is
located in the home of Philip Davis' the Company's past President. Approximately
nine square feet are allocated to the Company on a rent-free basis. The office
will remain at Mr. Davis's home until acquisition has been concluded.
There are no written documents memorializing the foregoing.
There are no preliminary agreements or understandings with respect
to the office facility subsequent to the completion of an acquisition. Upon a
merger or acquisition, Lahaina intends to relocate its office to that of the
acquisition candidate.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no material legal proceedings pending or to the knowledge
of management, threatened against the Company.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
No matter was submitted to security holders during the fourth
quarter of the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998.

MATTERS
(a) Market Information
The Company's Common Stock has been traded over-the-counter on the
bulletin Board operated by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
under the symbol "LAHA." The following table sets forth the high and low
closing, bid of the Company's Common Stock for each quarter during the past two
fiscal years. The prices reflect inter-dealer quotations without retail
mark-ups, mark downs or commissions, and do not necessarily represent actual
transactions. The Company's securities began trading actively in August 1996.
Since the foregoing date, the high bid has been $3.250 and the low bid has been
$0.875.

</TABLE>
On December 14, 1998, the closing bid on the Common Stock was $0.50.
(b) Holders
As of September 30,1997, there were approximately 195 holders of the
Company's Common Stock. This number does not include those beneficial owners
whose securities are held in street name.
15
<PAGE> 16
(c) Dividends
No dividend was paid to stockholders during the fiscal years ended
September 30, 1997 and 1998. The Company intends to continue to retain earnings
for use in the business of the Company and therefore does not anticipate
declaring or paying cash dividends in the immediate future.
(d) Blue Sky Considerations
The laws of some states prohibit: the resale of securities issued by
"blank check" or "shell" corporations. The Company may be considered a "blank
check" or "shell" corporation for the purpose of state securities laws.
Accordingly, it is possible that current shareholders may be unable
to resell their securities in other states. The Company is unaware which
particular states prohibit such resales, other than Idaho and Indiana. Further,
because each state has a series of exempt securities transactions predicated
upon the particular facts off each transaction, it is impossible to determine if
a contemplated transaction by an existing shareholder would possibly violate the
securities laws of any particular state.
In the event a current shareholder or broker/dealer resells its
securities in the state where such resale is prohibited, the Company believes
that the seller thereof may be liable criminally or civilly under that
particular state's laws. The Company believes that it will not be liable for
such improper secondary sales.
Existing shareholders should exercise caution in the resale of their
shares of common stock in light of the foregoing.

(1) For the purposes of this table, beneficial ownership has been
determined in accordance with the provisions of Rule 13d-3 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, under which, in
general, a person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of a security
if he or she has or shares the power to vote or to direct the voting
of the security or the power to dispose or to direct the disposition
of the security, or if he or she has the right to acquire beneficial
ownership of the security within 60 days of December 15, 1998.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULT OF OPERATIONS.
Results of Operations - Inception (April 5, 1989) through September 30, 1998.
The Company is considered to be in the development stage as defined
in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7. There have been no
operations since incorporation.
There were no material changes in the Company's results of
operations for fiscal 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Certain officers and shareholders have paid for expenses on behalf
of the Company. Those amounts were treated as capital contributions and credited
to common stock. The Company has no cash as of September 30, 1998.
Year 2000
Computer programs have been written using two digits rather than
four to define the applicable year, which could result in the computer
recognizing as a date using "double 00" as the year 1900 rather than the year
2000. This, in turn, will result in major system failures and in
miscalculations, and is generally referred to as a "Year 2000" problem. The
Company, as a development stage company, maintains its books and records on a
personal computer and has no significant customers or suppliers. The Company
does not believe that the cost to achieve Year 2000 compliance will be material,
nor does the Company have any information that the Year
19
<PAGE> 20
2000 problem will have material adverse effect on its business, operations or
financial performance. Further, the Company is not aware of any Year 2000
problems among its customers or suppliers that will have a material adverse
effect on its business, operations or financial performance.
