Item 1. Financial Statements.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

General

     The  accompanying  unaudited  financial  statements  have been  prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and,  therefore,  do not include
all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial
position,  results of  operations,  cash  flows,  and  stockholders'  deficit in
conformity  with generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  In the opinion of
management,  all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the
results of  operations  and  financial  position have been included and all such
adjustments are of a normal  recurring  nature.  Operating  results for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997, are not  necessarily  indicative of the results
that can be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997.

        of Operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     As of September 30, 1997,  the Company had $46,341 cash in the bank.  There
is no certainty that the Company can meet its current financial commitments.

     The Company is a  development  stage  company  engaged in the  operation of
international lottery projects,  the sale of equipment and services to the North
American bingo market, and leasing of facilities to charities that conduct bingo
operations.  The Company,  during the quarter ended September 30, 1997,  entered
into a joint venture  agreement with Lymca,  S.A. (A Venezuelan  corporation) to
provide equipment and services for a lottery project in Venezuela. Subsequent to
September  30, 1997,  the Company  entered  into an  agreement  with Sharp Image
Gaming International  Corporation (a California corporation) whereby Sharp Image
will provide  lottery  terminals to the Venezuela  lottery project at no initial
cost to the Company.  The first of approximately 1,300 terminals are expected to
be installed in Venezuela during the fourth quarter of 1997.

     Net loss was $39,618 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 compared

improved management controls over existing operations.
