                          (A Development Stage Company)
                          Notes to Financial Statements
                                   (Unaudited)

1. Business

      Colecciones de Raquel, Inc. (The "Company") designs and markets cosmetics,
      skin care, fragrance, and lingerie. The Company's cosmetics line is
      specifically designed for golden skin tones such as sallow and olive
      complexions.

2. Unaudited financial statements

      The financial statements as of March 31, 1999 and for the periods ended
      March, 1998 and 1997 included herein are unaudited; however, such
      information reflects all adjustments consisting of normal recurring
      adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
      presentation of the information for such periods. In addition, the results
      of operation for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
      results for the entire year. The accompanying financial statements should
      be read in conjunction with the Company's 1998 annual report filed on Form
      10-KSB.

3. Warrants and related settlement agreement

      In August 1994, the Company completed an initial public offering of its
      securities. The Company sold 1,000,000 units at $.10 per unit for gross
      proceeds of $100,000 on a self-underwritten basis. Expenses of the
      offering were $8,910. Each unit consists of one share of common stock and
      one Class A Warrant. The Class A Warrants were exercisable for one share
      of common stock and two Class B Warrants at a price of $.25 each. The
      Class B Warrants were exercisable for one share of common stock and one
      Class C Warrant at a price of $.50 each. The Class C warrants were to be
      exercisable for one share of common stock at a price of $1.00 each.

      In February 1995, all of the B Warrants were exercised in a transaction
      which the Company claims was fraudulent. Although the Company received no
      portion of the $250,000 exercise price, Units consisting of one share of
      common stock and two B Warrants were issued by the Company's transfer
      agent without the knowledge of the Company's officers or directors to
      persons purportedly exercising the A Warrants.

      In September 1995, the Company entered into an Agreement with Moore
      McKenzie, Inc., a Philippine corporation ("MMI"), which purchased and
      resold the shares following their exercise by third party entities. MMI
      has expressly denied any involvement in the exercise of the A Warrants, B
      Warrants, and C Warrants. Solely for the purpose of protecting and
      preserving its investment in the Shares and its reputation and goodwill,
      MMI agreed to pay the Company the exercise price of the A Warrants
      ($250,000) and B Warrants ($1,000,000). As of February 29, 1996, the


                                                                               6

      Company had received all of the settlement. Further, the Company agreed to
      sell MMI an additional 1,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of
      $1.00 per share in place of the shares which could have been purchased
      upon exercise of the canceled C Warrants. MMI did not purchase the
      additional 1,000,000 and no additional shares were issued. The option to
      purchase the additional 1,000,000 shares at $1.00 per share expired in
      September, 1996.

4. Legal proceedings

      In September of 1998, the Company filed a complaint and Demand for
      Arbitration before the American Arbitration Association against John W.
      Vanover. The Demand for Arbitration is for the return of $10,000 in cash
      and stock certificates for 2.6 million Company common shares. In July,
      1998, the Company placed a stop order on the above shares. The basis of
      the dispute is for non-performance, bad faith, and willful malfeasance.
      Other than this item, there are no material pending legal proceedings to
      which the Company or the property of the Company are subject. In addition,
      no proceedings are known to be contemplated by a governmental authority
      against the Company or any officer or director of the Company.

5. Leases

      On October 1, 1995, the Company entered into a two year lease for a store
      front located in Beverly Hills, California. In October, 1997 this lease
      was renewed for another 2 years. The space is approximately 700 square
      feet, and the monthly rent is $1,100. In May 1996, the Company entered
      into a three year lease for a 900 square foot store front in downtown Los
      Angeles, California. Monthly rent for the space, which the Company is
      utilizing for its second showroom/boutique location, is $1,451 per month,
      this lease ends on June 30, 1999.


                                                                               7

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion And Analysis Or Plan Of Operation

      Material Changes in Results of Operations

      Sales were down 18% in the 1999 Third Quarter revenues compared to those
      of 1998. However, the First Quarter 1988 Cost of Goods Sold were
      substantially lower in 1999 due to an increase in cosmetic sales and
      decrease in lingerie, who have a lower mark-up value. First Quarter 1999 S
      G& Expenses were down 23% from the prior year. This is mostly attributed
      to cut-backs in costs in September of 1998. The First Quarter expense were
      higher from Fourth Quarter, 1998 due to accounting expenses incurred
      during the audit.

      Material Changes in Financial Condition

      The Company's cash position decreased the three month period ended March
      31, 1999. This is attributed to the Company's continued low level of sales
      relative to its cost of operations, and lack of offsetting inflows from
      financing activities. Due to sales, inventory levels were lower from
      year-end 1998.

      The continued operation and existence the Company will be dependent on
      obtaining additional capital to implement its plans to increase
      distribution and sales, and its ability to generate significant product
      sales and ultimately to achieve profitable operations. The Company's
      available cash at March 31, 1999 is expected to be sufficient to defray
      the Company's operating expenses through calendar year 1999.


                                                                               8
