PART 1
ITEM 1 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Business Development
The Company was incorporated in California on August 15, 1983 using the name of
Tahoe Lake Concessions, Inc. The Company did not conduct any business activities
until 1993. On June 21, 1993, the Company's shareholders approved a name change
to BAOA, Inc. From 1993 through 1997, BAOA was engaged in the development,
marketing, and sales of an educational and entertainment board game.
There have been no bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings.
There have been no material reclassifications, mergers, consolidations, or
purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of
business.
Business of the Issuer
The management of BAOA, Inc. ("the Company") changed the primary focus of the
company from the marketing and sales of a board game to telemarketing in 1997.
The Company used its 1998 operating resources and cash to enable it to compete
in the telemarketing call center business in 1999. After considerable analysis,
management determined that the best business strategy to ensure the
profitability of the telemarketing centers would be to open call centers in
federally designated empowerment zones throughout the United States. BAOA formed
a strategic alliance with MKT Communications Corp., a major telemarketing and
call center management company, to assist BAOA in marketing and managing its
telemarketing call centers. The first call center will be in Atlanta, with an
anticipated opening in the third quarter of 1999. The City of Atlanta and the
State of Georgia have issued final site and financial commitment approval for
the Company's first call center in Atlanta. The second call center is scheduled
to open in the City of New York in the first quarter of 2000. The City of New
York has issued final site and financial commitment for the Company's call
center in New York. The Company plans to open a third call center in the City of
Los Angeles in the second quarter of 2000. Each call center is expected to
potentially employ up to 400 people and generate significant annual revenues.
This new business strategy allows BAOA to become a direct to consumer
distribution network with each potential customer being anyone who answers the
phone.
BAOA's strategy for opening call centers in empowerment zones is designed to
help inner cities and the residents of the empowerment zones, as well as provide
substantial revenues to the Company. The Company's niche in the call center
business will be enhanced by the empowerment zone benefits that include job
training subsidies, grants, loans, investment tax credits and energy credits.
These incentives significantly reduce start up and direct costs of operations.
<PAGE> 4
BAOA's call center projects substantively meet one of the chief empowerment zone
prerequisites which is to create new jobs. Each call center will potentially
create up to 400 new teleservice representative jobs.
BAOA's long-term strategy is to evolve as a lead distributor of products and
services through direct-to-consumer telemarketing channels. BAOA intends to
distribute the products and services of other companies and professionals as
well as market and distribute its own products.
Competition
While the size and financial strength of the Company's competitors are
substantially greater than those of the Company, management believes the Company
will be able to compete effectively because it will incur lower costs and
expenses due to government funding programs and tax incentives as it provides
telecommunications and computer jobs to economically depressed areas of inner
cities. There is currently no direct competition in this inner city market.
Year 2000 Disclosure
The year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's
computer programs that have time- sensitive software may recognize a date using
"00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system
failure or miscalculations causing disruption of normal business activities.
Based on a recent and ongoing assessment, the Company has determined that it
will be required to modify or replace portions of its software so that computer
systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and
thereafter. The Company presently believes that with modifications to existing
software or conversions to new software, the Year 2000 issue will not pose
significant operational problems and will not materially affect future financial
results.
The Company has initiated communications with its significant suppliers to
determine the extent to which the Company is vulnerable to any third party's
failure to remedy their own Year 2000 issues. The Company will utilize both
internal and external resources to modify, or replace, and test software for
Year 2000 compliance. The Company currently anticipates completing the Year 2000
project not later than September 30, 1999, which is prior to any anticipated
impact on its operating systems. The costs of the project, which at the current
time are projected to be immaterial, and the date on which the Company believes
it will complete Year 2000 modifications are based on management's best
estimates, which were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events,
including the continued availability of certain resources, third party
modification plans and other factors. However, there can be no guarantee that
these estimates will be achieved and actual results could materially differ from
those anticipated.
<PAGE> 5
ITEM 2 DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
The Company leases its corporate office space located at 2635 Camino del Rio
South, Suite 210, San Diego, California. The office space consists of
approximately 2,700 square feet. The lease commenced November 1996 and will
terminate November 30, 2001.
ITEM 3 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company had no legal proceedings in 1998 and none are pending.
ITEM 4 SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
There have been no such submissions, as the Company did not have a shareholders
meeting during 1998.
PART II
ITEM 5 MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDERS
MATTERS.
General
The Company's common stock is traded on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. The
OTC Electronic Bulletin Board is sponsored by the National Association of
Securities Dealers (NASD). The Electronic Bulletin Board is a network of
security dealers who buy and sell stocks.
For the periods indicated, the following table sets forth the high and low bid
prices per share of common stock. These prices represent inter-dealer quotations
without retail mark-up, markdown, or commission and may not necessarily
represent actual transactions.

The Company's Board of Directors determines any payment of dividends. The Board
of Directors does not expect to authorize the payment of cash dividends in the
foreseeable future. Any future decision with respect to dividends will depend on
future earnings, operations, capital requirements and availability, restrictions
in future financing agreements, and other business and financial considerations.
As of December 31, 1998, there were approximately 591 holders of record of the
Company's Common Stock. The Board of Directors believe that the number of
beneficial owners is substantially greater than the number of record holders
because a portion of the Company's outstanding Common Stock is held of record in
broker "street names" for the benefit of individual investors.
ITEM 6 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Plan of Operations
As the Company advanced its business plan to open call center businesses in
Enterprise Zones, the Company has maintained sufficient cash to sustain
corporate operations through the sale of equity securities and direct advances
and loans from shareholders. During the next twelve months the Company's plan of
operations includes opening a call center in the City of Atlanta in the third
quarter of 1999 and a call center in the City of New York in the first quarter
of 2000. The Company will face considerable risk in each of its business plan
steps, such as difficulty of building site renovation within its budget,
difficulty of completing its build-out within its timetable and budget,
difficulty of hiring competent personnel within its budget, and a lack of
funding due to the Company's inability to raise capital in the equity securities
market. If no funding is received during the next twelve months, the Company
will be forced to rely on its existing cash in the bank and funds loaned by
shareholders. In such a restricted cash flow scenario, the Company would be
unable to complete its business plan steps, and would, instead, delay all cash
intensive activities.
<PAGE> 7
Results of Operations
As of December 31, 1998, the Company had no cash on hand and in the bank. The
primary sources of cash and financing for the Company for the year ended
December 31, 1998 were $339,000 from issuance of stock and shareholders' loans
to the Company of $113,000. The primary use of cash during 1998 was $361,000 to
finance the Company's operations and $92,000 for an option to purchase a
building in the City of Atlanta for the Company's call center business. The
Company had two full time employees during 1998.
Significant losses in 1998 were primarily due to the lack of sales due to
management's decision to utilize operating funds in order to advance the
Company's business plan to open call center business locations in Empowerment
Zones in Atlanta and New York. Management believes the Company will have a
better chance of achieving revenue and profit goals through the new call center
businesses in 1999.
ITEM 7 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
The audited financial statements of the Company and related Notes which are
included in this filing have been examined by S.W. Hatfield, Certified Public
Accountants, and have been so included in reliance upon the opinion of such
accountants given upon their authority as experts in auditing and accounting.

ITEM 8 CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON
ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
On May 5, 1999, the Board of Directors approved the engagement of S.W.
Hatfield, Certified Public Accountants to perform the audit of the
Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1998.
The Company's previous auditors, Harlan & Boettger, LLP decided to
discontinue providing their services to the Company on May 3, 1999.
During the two most recent years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997,
there have been no disagreements with Harlan & Boettger, LLP on any
matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure or any reportable events.
The audit report of Harlan & Boettger, LLP on the financial statements
for the two years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 contained no
adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or
modified as to audit scope or accounting principles. However, the
audit report was modified to include a statement concerning doubts
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company has requested that Harlan & Boettger, LLP furnish it with
a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the above
statements. A copy of Harlan & Boettger, LLP's letter to the SEC dated
May 3, 1999, was filed as Exhibit 16 to the Company's Form 8-K.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Shareholders and Board of Directors
BAOA, Inc. and Subsidiaries
We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of BAOA, Inc. (a California
corporation) and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998, and the related
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, changes in
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits. The financial statements of BAOA, Inc. as of and
for the year ended December 31, 1997 were audited by other auditors whose report
was dated April 9, 1998 and included a paragraph expressing substantial doubt
about BAOA, Inc.'s ability to continue as a going concern.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit also includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of BAOA,
Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the results of its
consolidated operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note B to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered losses in prior years, working
capital deficiencies and continues to experience liquidity problems that raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note B. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

BAOA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1998 and 1997
NOTE A - BACKGROUND AND ORGANIZATION
BAOA, Inc. (BAOA) was originally incorporated on August 15, 1983 according to
the laws of the State of California. BAOA was dormant until 1993. From 1993
through 1997, BAOA was engaged in the development, sale and marketing of an
educational and entertainment board game, the marketing of an affinity credit
card, the licensing of its trademarked logo "Black Americans of Achievement" and
the development for production of a television game show.
Effective, during 1997, BAOA redirected its efforts to the operation of
telemarketing call centers located in Federally designated "Empowerment Zones"
throughout the United States. BAOA has entered into a strategic alliance with
MKT Communications Corp., a telemarketing and call center management entity, to
assist the Company in marketing and managing its call centers. The Company has
no call centers in operation as of June 30, 1999; but, is in negotiation for the
opening of call centers in Atlanta, Georgia and New York City, New York.
In anticipation of opening the Atlanta center and others to be established, the
Company has incorporated wholly-owned subsidiaries: Call Atlanta, Inc. and Call
Harlem, Inc.
The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Call Atlanta, Inc. was incorporated on
January 7, 1998 under the laws of the State of Georgia. Call Atlanta, Inc. will
operate the Company's telemarketing call center operations domiciled in the
Atlanta Georgia designated "Empowerment Zone".
The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Call Harlem, Inc. was incorporated on
September 29, 1998 under the laws of the State of Delaware. Call Harlem, Inc.
will operate the Company's telemarketing call center operations domiciled in the
New York City designated "Empowerment Zone".
The accompanying financial statements present the consolidated financial
condition, operations and cash flows of BAOA, Inc. and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Call Atlanta, Inc. and Call Harlem, Inc. All significant
intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The
consolidated entities are collectively referred to as the "Company".
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure 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 estimates.
NOTE B - GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY
The Company has had continuing losses from operations and experienced negative
cash flows from operating activities since 1993. Further, the Company has
limited ability to utilize traditional financing methods. The Company's survival
in the current and prior years has been substantially dependent upon advances
from related parties and other individuals and the sale of equity securities
through the efforts of Management.
The Company's continued existence is dependent upon its ability to generate
sufficient cash flows from operations to support its daily operations as well as
provide sufficient resources to retire existing liabilities and obligations on a
timely basis.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
December 31, 1998 and 1997
NOTE B - GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY - CONTINUED
The Company has customer contracts to provide telemarketing services commencing
with the opening of its two (2) planned call centers. The City of Atlanta,
Georgia has issued final site and financial commitment approval for the
Company's Atlanta Empowerment Zone call center with an expected opening date in
September 1999. The City of New York City, New York has issued its final site
and financial commitment approval for the Company's New York Empowerment Zone
call center with an expected opening date of January 2000.
Additionally, management believes that its ongoing efforts to raise additional
capital through the sale of equity securities and/or debt instruments will
provide additional cash flows. However, there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to obtain additional funding or, that such funding, if
available, will be obtained on terms favorable to or affordable by the Company.
NOTE C - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1. Cash and Cash Equivalents
For Statement of Cash Flows purposes, the Company considers all cash on hand
and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of
deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months
or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.
Cash overdraft positions may occur from time to time due to the timing of
making bank deposits and releasing checks, in accordance with the Company's
cash management policies.
2. Accounts Receivable
In the normal course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to
virtually all of its clients which are located throughout the United States.
Because of the credit risk involved, management has provided an allowance for
doubtful accounts which reflects its opinion of amounts which will eventually
become uncollectible. In the event of complete non-performance, the maximum
exposure to the Company is the recorded amount of trade accounts receivable
shown on the balance sheet at the date of non-performance.
3. Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a
straight-line basis, over their estimated useful lives (generally 5 to 7
years). Major additions and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over
the remaining estimated useful lives of the related assets. Maintenance,
repairs, and minor improvements are charged to expense as incurred.
4. Organization costs
Organization costs are being amortized using the straight-line method over
five years.

NOTE C - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
5. Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income
taxes. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, the deferred tax asset
and deferred tax liability accounts, as recorded when material to the
financial statements, are entirely the result of temporary differences.
Temporary differences represent differences in the recognition of assets and
liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes, primarily accumulated
depreciation and amortization, allowance for doubtful accounts and vacation
accruals.
As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the deferred tax asset related to the
Company's net operating loss carryforward is fully reserved. If these
carryforwards are not utilized, they will begin to expire in 2007.
6. Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss)
by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and common stock
equivalents (primarily outstanding options and warrants). Common stock
equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of the
outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method. The
calculation of fully diluted earnings (loss) per share assumes the dilutive
effect of the exercise of outstanding options and warrants at either the
beginning of the respective period presented or the date of issuance,
whichever is later. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the outstanding
warrants and options are deemed to be anti-dilutive due to the Company's net
operating loss position.
7. Stock Options
During 1997, the Company adopted a method of accounting for stock-based
compensation as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
123 (SFAS 123), "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation". SFAS 123 allows
for two methods of valuing stock-based compensation. The first method allows
for the continued application of Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 25
(APB 25). The second method uses an option pricing model to value stock
compensation and record such valuation as compensation expense within the
financial statements over the anticipated period that the options will be
outstanding. The Company has elected to apply the tenets of APB 25 and the
supplemental disclosure standards of SFAS 123.
8. Advertising
The Company expenses direct advertising and marketing costs as incurred.
Advertising expenses of approximately $1,801 and $14,432 are included in the
accompanying financial statements as a component of sales and marketing
expense for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
9. Research and development
The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. Research and
development costs of approximately $-0- and $41,949 are included in the
accompanying financial statements as a component of general and
administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

10. Reclassifications
Certain 1997 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1998 financial
statement presentations.
NOTE D - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company has both advances and notes payable to related parties, who are also
stockholders or related to stockholders of the Company. The advances arose from
the direct payment of expenses paid on behalf of the Company and for various
cash advances made directly to the Company. The advances are not formally
documented, unsecured, non-interest bearing and are due upon demand based on the
initial understanding of the Company and the related parties.
Further, the Company has received loans from related parties, who are also
stockholders or entities controlled by stockholders of the Company. The loans
are not formally documented, bear interest at 8.0% and are due on demand.
During 1999, the Company, with advice of legal counsel, determined that no
formal documents related to the notes and/or advances exist. Additionally, no
demand for payment had been made within a time period specified in the Uniform
Commercial Code from the inception of the advances through December 31, 1998.
Accordingly, the Company, upon the advice of legal counsel, wrote off these
advances as forgiveness of debt in the accompanying financial statements.
The following summarizes these amounts as of December 31, 1998 and 1997:

Additionally, the Company has paid, in cash and/or common stock, certain amounts
to related parties, including members of management, officers and directors of
the Company for various consulting, marketing and management services. These
amounts are shown as "Marketing and consulting fees to related parties" in the
accompanying Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
NOTE E - OPTION TO ACQUIRE REAL PROPERTY
In 1997, the Company entered into an contractual agreement, which was
subsequently modified and extended, to purchase a building in Atlanta, Georgia
to house its administrative offices and its initial telemarketing call center.
On March 23, 1998, the building was purchased by an affiliated individual, who
intends to deed the property to the Company at a future date to be determined.
Since the closing date, the Company funded all initial deposits, closing costs
and debt service payments on behalf of the owning party. The monies advanced on
behalf of the owning party have been classified as "Option to acquire real
property" in the accompanying balance sheets and statements of cash flows.

Had compensation cost for options granted in 1998 and 1997, respectively, been
determined based on the fair values at the grant dates, as prescribed by SFAS
123, the Company's net loss and net loss per share would not have changed due to
the fact that the exercise price of the options was substantially higher than
the market price at the grant date.
The calculations to estimate the fair value of the options were made using the
Black-Scholes pricing model which required making significant assumptions. These
assumptions include the expected life of the options, which was determined to be
one year, the expected volatility, which was based on fluctuations of the stock
price over a 12 month period, the expected dividends, determined to be zero
based on past performance, and the risk free interest rate, which was estimated
using the bond equivalent yield of 6.0% at December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
