EMERGING BETA CORPORATION
(A Company in the Development Stage)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(All information as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 is unaudited)
1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION
Emerging Beta Corporation (the "Company") is considered to be in the
development stage as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 7. The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State
of Delaware on February 10, 1993, for the purpose of seeking out business
opportunities, including acquisitions, that the board of directors, in
their discretion, believe to be good opportunities. The Company will be
heavily dependent on the skills, talents, and abilities of its management
to successfully implement its business plan. An affiliate of a director
is expected to be the source for most business opportunities submitted to
the Company. Due to its currently limited funds and to the fact that the
Company will only receive limited capital from a public offering, it is
likely that the Company will not be able to compete with larger and more
experienced entities for business opportunities which are lower risk and
are more attractive for such entities; business opportunities, in which
the Company ultimately participates will likely be highly risky and
speculative. Since inception, the Company's activities have been limited
to capital formation.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organizational costs relating to the expenses of incorporation will be
amortized on a straight-line basis over five years.
The financial statements for the three and nine months ended December 31,
1996 and 1995 are unaudited, but in the opinion of the management of the
Company, contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring
accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position at December
31, 1996, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended
December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the cash flows for the three and nine
months ended December 31, 1996 and 1995. The results of operations for
the three and nine months ended December 31, 1995 have been adjusted from
the results as previously reported to include amortization expenses.
The results of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected
for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 1997.
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company currently has informal arrangements with an affiliate of
certain officers and directors for use of office space and professional
and clerical services. Professional services, if any, are to be billed to
the Company at $60 to $100 per hour. Use of clerical services, if any,
are to be billed to the Company at $20 per hour. The Company currently
receives the use of office space free of charge. As of December 31, 1996,
no services had been billed to the Company.
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
AND FINANCIAL
CONDITION
The Company has not commenced operations. Expenses for the three and nine
months ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 include consulting fees of $3,750
and $11,250, respectively.
