Equity Financing


In June 2005, the Company received $185,000 of proceeds from the sale of common stock to two groups. The stock was valued at $0.01, the fair market value on the date of the sale. As of June 30, 2005, the shares had not been issued and have been recorded as Common Stock Issuable in the accompanying Financial Statements.

Liquidity


To continue with our business plan, we will require additional short-term working capital and we have not had generating sufficient cash from operations to fund our operating activities. Presently, as a BDC, our only source of revenues is through distributions from our majority-owned investees. We cannot assure you that we will receive distributions from our majority-owned investees, if any, and that borrowings under any interim financing we are able to secure will be sufficient to meet our projected cash flow needs.


In January 2004, we filed an election to become subject to Sections 55 through 65 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, such that we could commence conducting our business activities as a BDC. Additionally, the Board of Directors determined that it was necessary to raise additional capital to carry out the company’s business plan and the Company filed a Form 1-E pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 notifying the SEC of the Company’s intent to sell up to $4,000,000 of the Company’s common stock at prices between $0.01 and $0.10 per share, or 40,000,000 and 400,000,000 shares, respectively. On January 29, 2004, the 1-E filing notification with the SEC became effective. The Company is presently registered as an Investment Company under the Act and as such, is authorized to issue up to $4,000,000 in “free-trading” stock at prices ranging from $0.01 to $0.10 per share.


On February 22, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interest of the Company to discontinue the offering discussed above and to investigate other financing alternatives. Accordingly, the Company filed a Form 2-E pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 notifying the SEC of the Company’s termination of the offering. However, the filing was not acknowledged by the SEC and the Company re-filed the Form with the SEC, with an effective date of June 30, 2005. The Form 2-E filing discloses that the Company received $1,820,000 of proceeds from the offering, net of $30,000 of expenses, through the sale of 171,000,000 shares of the Company’s $0.001 par value common stock.


Our ability to obtain additional financing depends on many factors beyond our control, including the state of the capital markets, the market price of our common stock, the prospects for our business as a BDC and the success of our majority-owned investees. Additionally, any necessary additional financing may not be available to us or may be available only on terms that would result in further dilution to the current owners of our common stock. Failure to obtain commitments for financing would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. If the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs is unavailable or insufficient or we do not receive the necessary financing, we may be unable to continue as a going concern.




Cash is King until further notice!!!

My comments on companies are usually my opinion of long term success (years). The PPS may go up or down greatly in the meantime depending on the number of greedy suckers with money.
