NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization - The Company was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada
on July 26, 1990. The Company has not yet generated significant revenues from
its planned principal operations and is considered a development stage company
as defined in SFAS No. 7. The Company was organized to provide a vehicle for
participating in potentially profitable business ventures which may become
available through the personal contacts of, and at the complete discretion of,
the Company's officers and directors. The Company has, at the present time,
not paid any dividends and any dividends that may be paid in the future will
depend upon the financial requirements of the Company and other relevant
factors.
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, 1999 and for all the periods presented 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, 1998
audited financial statements. The results of operations for the periods ended
March 31, 1999 and 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results for the full year.
Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires 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.
NOTE 2 - COMMON STOCK
During July 1990, in connection with its organization, the Company issued
1,000,000 shares of its previously authorized, but unissued common stock.
Total proceeds from the sale of stock amounted to $1,000 (or $.001 per share).
During May 1998, the Company issued 10,000,000 shares of its previously
authorized, but unissued common stock. Total proceeds from the sale of stock
amounted to $40,000 (or $.004 per share). The issuance of common stock
resulted in a change in control of the Company [See Note 5].
NOTE 3 - INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes". FASB
109 requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset/liability equal
to the expected future tax benefit/expense of temporary reporting differences
between book and tax accounting methods and any available operating loss or
tax credit carryforwards. At March 31, 1999, there were no material deferred
tax assets or liabilities, current or deferred tax expense, or net operating
loss carryforwards.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Management Compensation - The Company has not paid 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 home as
a mailing address, as needed, at no expense to the Company.
NOTE 5 - CHANGES IN CONTROL
During May 1998, the Company raised $40,000 through the sale of 10,000,000
shares of common stock. The shares sold represent approximately ninety-one
percent (91%) of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company
resulting in a change in control of the Company. The proceeds from the stock
sale will be used to pay for legal and accounting fees and for management to
search for possible business opportunities. The former officers and directors
of the Company resigned and an individual holding approximately 23% of the
outstanding common stock was appointed as the sole member of the Board of
Directors of the Company and as the new President, Chief Executive Officer,
Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary/Treasurer of the Company.
NOTE 6 - EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
The following data show the amounts used in computing income (loss) per share
and the effect on income and the weighted average number of shares of dilutive
potential common stock for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 and
from inception on July 26, 1990 through March 31, 1999:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
The following discussion and analysis provides information which
management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the
Company's consolidated results of operations and financial condition. The
discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto.
Plan of Operation
The Company has no business operations, and very limited assets or
capital resources. The Company's business plan is to seek one or more
potential business ventures that, in the opinion of management, may warrant
involvement by the Company. The Company recognizes that because of its limited
financial, managerial and other resources, the type of suitable potential
business ventures which may be available to it will be extremely limited. The
Company's principal business objective will be to seek long-term growth
potential in the business venture in which it participates rather than to seek
immediate, short-term earnings. In seeking to attain the Company's business
objective, it will not restrict its search to any particular business or
industry, but may participate in business ventures of essentially any kind or
nature. It is emphasized that the business objectives discussed are extremely
general and are not intended to be restrictive upon the discretion of
management.
The Company will not restrict its search for any specific kind of firms,
but may participate in a venture in its preliminary or development stage, may
participate in a business that is already in operation or in a business in
various stages of its corporate existence. It is impossible to predict at this
stage the status of any venture in which the Company may participate, in that
the venture may need additional capital, may merely desire to have its shares
publicly traded, or may seek other perceived advantages which the Company may
offer. In some instances, the business endeavors may involve the acquisition
of or merger with a corporation which does not need substantial additional
cash but which desires to establish a public trading market for its common
stock.
The Company does not have sufficient funding to meet its anticipated cash
needs. The current sole officer and director has expressed his intent to
borrow funds to the extent possible, to fund the costs of operating the
Company until a suitable business venture can be completed. Management does
not anticipate raising funds during the next twelve months through the sale of
securities. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to
successfully identify and/or negotiate a suitable potential business venture
or raise additional funding.
The Company has experienced net losses during the development stage (July
3, 1990 to present) and has had no significant revenues during such period.
During the past two fiscal years the Company has had no business operations.
In light of these circumstances, the ability of the Company to continue as a
going concern is significantly in doubt. The attached financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
Forward-Looking Statements
When used in this Form 10-Q or other filings by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company's press releases or other
public or shareholder communications, or in oral statements made with the
approval of an authorized officer of the Company's executive officers, the
words or phrases "would be", "will allow", "intends to", "will likely result",
"are expected to", "will continue", "is anticipated", "estimate", "project",
or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-
looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and advises readers
that forward-looking statements involve various risks and uncertainties. The
Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation to
update any forward-looking statements to reflect occurrences or unanticipated
events or circumstances after the date of such statement.
