NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of accounting policies for eFoodSafety.com, Inc. &
Subsidiary (a development stage company) is presented to assist in understanding
the Company's consolidated financial statements. The accounting policies conform
to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied
in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
Interim Financial Statements
The unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months
ended July 31, 2004 reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments
(which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state the
financial position and results of operations for the three months ended July 31,
2004 and 2003. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results which can be expected for full years.
Organization and Basis of Presentation
The Company was incorporated in Nevada on October 28, 1996 as DJH
International, Inc. to market products through the Internet. On October 16,
2000, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of reorganization with
Global Procurement Systems, Inc. ("GPS") whereby the Company acquired GPS. This
business combination was accounted for as a reverse merger with GPS being the
surviving entity for financial reporting purposes. As a result of the
acquisition, the Company issued 37,620,000 shares of common stock in exchange
for the outstanding shares of GPS and changed its name to eFoodSafety.com, Inc.
GPS was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January
28, 1998. Since January 28, 1998 the Company is in the development stage, and
has not commenced planned principal operations.
On October 29, 2003, the Company issued 1,500,000 restricted shares of
common stock to acquire Food Safe, Inc. As of October 29, 2003, Food Safe, Inc.
is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
In May 2004, the Company incorporated Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd.
("Knock-Out") as a wholly- owned subsidiary of the Company. Knock-Out is to be a
manufacturer of all-natural, non-toxic, food-grade products.
Nature of Business
The Company was organized as a vehicle to provide methods and products
to ensure the safety of fruits and vegetables being marketed worldwide.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less
to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment
purposes.
Pervasiveness of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles required 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.
Business Condition
These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As
of July 31, 2004, the Company has accumulated operating losses of $2,721,766
since its inception. The continuation of the Company is dependent upon the
continuing financial support of directors and stockholders. It is the intention
of the Company to raise new equity financing of approximately $2,500,000 within
the upcoming year. Amounts raised will be used to implement the company's plan
of operations. While the Company is expending its best efforts to achieve the
above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate funds
that will be available for operations.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements for the three months ended July
31, 2004 include the accounts of eFoodSafety.com, Inc. and its subsidiaries Food
Safe, Inc. and Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. Food Safe, Inc. was acquired by the
Company on October 29, 2003. Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. was incorporated by
the Company in May 2004 as a wholly-owned subsidiary.
The results of subsidiaries acquired or sold during the year are
consolidated from their effective dates of acquisition through their effective
dates of disposition.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
Depreciation
Office furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements, are stated at
cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method
over the estimated economic useful lives of the related assets as follows:
Furniture & Fixtures 5-10 years
Equipment 5- 7 years
Leasehold improvements 2-10 years
Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations; betterments are
capitalized. The cost of property sold or otherwise disposed of and the
accumulated depreciation thereon are eliminated from the property and related
accumulated depreciation accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is credited or
charged to income.
Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic loss per share has been computed by dividing the loss for the
year applicable to the common stockholders by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the years. There were no common equivalent
shares outstanding at July 31, 2004 and 2003.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of
credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other
foreign hedging arrangements. The Company maintains the majority of its cash
balances with one financial institution, in the form of demand deposits.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized from sales of product at the time of shipment to
customers. Title passes to the customer at the time the items are shipped, and
are no longer owned by the Company.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2003 financial
statements to conform with the 2004 presentation.

Investment in Marketable Securities
The Company's securities investments that are bought and held for an
indefinite period of time are classified as available-for-sale securities.
Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet in
current assets, with the change in fair value during the period excluded from
earnings and recorded net of tax as a component of other comprehensive income.
Investments in securities are summarized as follows:

NOTE 2 - INCOME TAXES
As of April 30, 2004, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward
for income tax reporting purposes of approximately $1,800,000 that may be offset
against future taxable income through 2024. Current tax laws limit the amount of
loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial
change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future
taxable income may be limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial
statements, because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the
carryforwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the
loss carryforwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.
NOTE 3 - DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY
The Company has recently begun principal operations and as is common
with a development stage company, the Company has had recurring losses during
its development stage. The Company's financial statements are prepared using
generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which
contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the
normal course of business. However, the Company does not have significant cash
or other material assets, nor does it have an established source of revenues
sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going
concern. In the interim, shareholders of the Company have committed to meeting
its minimal operating expenses. Revenues as of July 31, 2004 are not considered
significant enough for the Company to come out of the development stage.
NOTE 4 - COMMITMENTS
As of April 30, 2004 all activities of the Company have been conducted
by corporate officers from either their homes or business offices. Currently,
there are no outstanding debts owed by the company for the use of these
facilities and there are no commitments for future use of the facilities.
NOTE 5 - COMMON STOCK TRANSACTIONS
On February 9, 1998, the Company issued approximately 50,385,000 shares
(post split) of common stock to its officers and directors for payments made on
the Company's behalf during its formation in the amount of approximately $3,910.
On October 16, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of
reorganization with Global Procurement Systems, Inc. ("GPS") whereby the Company
acquired GPS. This business combination was accounted for as a reverse merger
with GPS being the surviving entity for financial reporting purposes. As a
result of the acquisition, the Company issued 37,620,000 shares of common stock
in exchange for the outstanding shares of GPS and changed its name to
eFoodSafety.com, Inc.
The merger was recorded as a recapitalization. In connection with this
recapitalization, the number of shares outstanding prior to the merger have been
restated to their post merger equivalents (increased from 360 shares to
50,385,000) and the par value of the Common Stock changed from no par value to
$.0001. All references in the accompanying financial statements to the number of
Common shares and per-share amounts since inception have been restated to
reflect the equivalent number of post merger shares.

for research and development expenses valued at $750,000.

common stock for general and administrative expenses valued at $19,184.
On November 14, 2003, the Company changed the number of authorized
Common shares from 50,000,000 to 500,000,000. Par value of the Company's Common
shares was changed from $.0005 to $.0001. On December 5, 2003, the Company did a
3 for 1 forward stock split. All references in the accompanying financial
statements to the number of Common shares and per-share amounts since inception
have been restated to reflect the equivalent number of post stock split shares.
NOTE 6 - RENT AND LEASE EXPENSE
The Company has finalized a lease for 10,000 square feet of industrial
warehouse space to be used as a manufacturing and distribution facility. The
warehouse space is located at 19125 N. Indian Avenue North, Palm Springs,
California. This is a two year lease beginning June 1, 2004. The Company will
pay $4,500 per month for the lease.
The minimum future lease payments under these leases for the next five
years are:
Year Ended April 30, Real Property

course of business, leases that expire will be renewed or replaced by leases on
other properties.

o the loss of the services of any member of our management team;
o whether or not our products are able to compete successfully with
products of other suppliers and whether or not some or all of our
products are rendered obsolete by newer products or technologies;
o the implementation of any government regulation that could make it
impossible, more difficult or more costly to bring our products to
market;
o our ability to obtain financing as and when we need it; and
o other factors, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which
are beyond our control.

statements, which relate only to events as of the date on which the statements
are made. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the
forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results,

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
eFoodSafety.com, Inc., a Nevada corporation, originally incorporated
under the name DJH
International, Inc., was formed on October 28, 1996. We are engaged in the food
safety business which involves sanitizing and disinfecting food product storage
areas and transportation containers, such as produce distribution centers, meat
processing facilities, and produce trucks. Through our acquisition of Knock-Out
Technologies in May 2004, we are also involved in the development of herbal,
non-toxic food grade products, including an anthrax sporocidal.
Our initial products are designed to eradicate harmful agents from
fruits and vegetables. We have identified various new product applications and
product line extensions and are involved in ongoing product research and
development efforts in that regard. Through April 30, 2004, we have had nominal
revenue and our efforts have primarily been concentrated on product development
and testing and assembling our sales and support organization.
Our corporate headquarters is located at 1370 St. George Circle,
Prescott, Arizona, 86301.
HISTORY AND COMPANY DEVELOPMENT
eFoodSafety.com, Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on October 28, 1996 as
DJH International, Inc. to market products through the Internet. The founder,
Michael J. Daniels, saw a need for good products and services to be marketed
traditionally and via the World Wide Web and sought opportunities through
companies that had the ability to sell and deliver in a timely fashion.
On October 16, 2000, we entered into an agreement and plan of
reorganization with Global Procurement Systems, Inc. whereby we acquired Global.
As a result of the acquisition, we issued 37,620,000 common shares and changed
our name to eFoodSafety.com, Inc. Upon the merger, Ms. Patricia Ross assumed the
official duties as president and brought us to our present path toward
development of sanitation services and products in the fruit and vegetable
market worldwide.
On October 29, 2003, the Company issued 1,500,000 restricted shares of
common stock to acquire Food Safe, Inc. As of October 29, 2003, Food Safe, Inc.
is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
In May 2004, the Company incorporated Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd.
("Knock-Out") as a wholly- owned subsidiary of the Company. Knock-Out is to be a
manufacturer of all-natural, non-toxic, food-grade products.
We have undergone no bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings.
We are still considered to be a development stage company. We have
little revenue and are dependent upon the raising of capital through placement
of its common stock. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in
raising the capital required through the sale of debt or equity securites, and
that would be able execute our business plan even if we obtained such capital.
Success of the plan of operation is contingent on the prudent usage of funds
raised, through equity and/or debt financing, to finance our food safety
products and services business.
PRODUCTS
We intend to offer a suite of products and processes designed to
eliminate pathogens and pesticides from phases of food distribution, primarily
produce. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has estimated that the annual
value of all food consumption in the U.S. totals $760 billion. Of this amount
18%
or $137 billion, is fruits and vegetables. The USDA further estimates that less
than 2% of all fruits and vegetable are pathogen, or "germ free", at the initial
packing point, and less still are provided with a way to continue to eliminate
the growth of pathogens during the distribution cycle.
We have developed products and equipment based on treatment of fruits
and vegetables with ozone. We believe ozone to be effective in keeping produce
free from pathogens and pesticides. The ozone material, along with water and
citric acid (to maintain desired water ph balance) would be sprayed on produce.
Our research, covering the past four years and, our process development
has demonstrated that our chemical-free Food Safe Program, utilizing ozone or
electronic pasteurization, virtually eliminated all pesticides and pathogens,
including E. Coli, Salmonella, and Listeria, at the packing house or
distribution center. Pesticides are chemical sprays used on a product while it
is growing in the field. The residue is left on the product under the normal
packing process. Pathogens are disease-causing bacteria, such as Salmonella,
Listeria, and E.Coli. The Food Safe Process effectively removes both pesticides
and pathogens. The Food Safety Program is intended to be a complete process that
would incorporate an application and monitoring system utilizing an ozonated
wash to fresh fruit and vegetables. A monitoring device will continuously
monitor water quality, Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP), ph balance, and
maintains continuous records that satisfy Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point
(HACCP) requirements. The data supplied by the monitoring device would be sent
to the USDA to ensure compliance with HACCP standards.
The ozone-based products and services provided by eFoodSafety are
available in an array of formats.
PRODUCE DISTRIBUTION FACILITY. To establish the Food Safe Program, the Company
intends to acquire a produce distribution facility. A "run-through" will be
completed after the Company has acquired such a distribution facility, set up
production lines, tested equipment, and ensured that all FDA standards have been
met or exceeded. From the time the Company takes possession of a distribution
facility, the first test run will be in 30 days of that point. The Company will
be fully operational, including equipment, labor, sales, and product testing,
approximately two (2) days after the test run. eFood's marketing plans will be
initiated immediately and those clients, if any, currently awaiting commencement
would then be serviced.
For the entire sanitization program to be deemed efficient, the process
must be completed at the company's distribution facility upon it being acquired
and operational. The results of such process shall exceed any FDA/USDA
standards. As stated above, the company offers a variety of services implemental
in a multitude of environments.
Therefore, billing for the company's products and services must be
determined on a case-by-case basis further described below:
Outline of the sanitization process listed by service and cost if the
client brings the produce to the company-owned distribution facility
for processing. This process exceeds any FDA, USDA Standards:
1. Inspection of Product Cost per unit $ 0.10
2. Handling Product before Processing Cost per unit $ 0.15
3. Food Safety Process/Packaging Cost per unit $ 2.50
4. Chemical Inspection Cost per unit $ 0.25
5. Sanitizing the Truck Cost per unit $ 0.15
6. Cost of Delivery of Product Cost per unit $ 1.75
-----------------
Total Cost per unit $ 4.90
=================
Please note that all prices are subject to change.
Outline of a la carte services available at the company-owned
distribution facility without utilizing the sanitization process:
1. Load Consolidation Cost per unit $ 1.00
2. Store Drop Delivery Cost per unit $ 1.50
3. Repacking Cost per unit $ 2.25
4. Storage Cost per unit $ 0.50
5. Sales/Marketing Cost per unit $ 1.00
6. Transportation Cost per load $ 250.00
Please note that all prices are subject to change.
Outline of services available at the customer's facility, not including
the cost for leasing/purchasing eFood approved equipment:
1. Process Cost per unit $ 0.30
Please note that a unit could be defined as follows:
a) trays (berries); b) cartons (oranges, peppers,
bananas); c) lugs (grapes, tomatoes); d) sacks
(potatoes, cucumbers), etc.
The program will use common materials, as will the manufacture of
equipment, so that we will have a multitude of vending sources from which to
choose. In addition, we plan to market our products and services so as not to
become dependent on any one customer.
EQUIPMENT LEASING. In addition to developing a Food Safe Program, we intend to
supply machinery and materials to those patrons who will be leasing/purchasing
the equipment and performing the process at their own (the vendor) facility. The
equipment will be custom fabricated by eFoodSafety.com, at its Palm Springs
manufacturing facility, thus causing the Company to require a deposit from the
customer in order to outlay any initial manufacturing costs. By performing the
process in the vendor's facility, it will give an extended shelf life to the
produce, including a reduction in pathogens, and an impression of sanitization
to the end- customer, but such produce will not meet any certification for
government standards due to cross contamination in packing, shipping, delivery,
etc.
TRUCK WASHING SERVICES. Using our ozone-based technology, we also are developing
a truck washing service designed to wash trucks and the produce they deliver.
This is intended to reduce the level of pathogens that may grow on produce
during the transportation process.
KNOCK-OUT SUBSIDIARY PRODUCTS. Through our subsidiary, Knock-Out Technologies,
we are developing a variety of products based on a proprietary blend of organic,
non-toxic and food-based substances. These products include an anthrax
sporocidal, a germicidal cleaner, a wound care antiseptic, an herbicide and an
insect repellent.
We are currently having an outside organization, Celsis Laboratory
Group, commence EPA protocol testing for the anthrax sporocidal product.
SALES AND MARKETING
Initially, the program will be marketed locally. In order to set up a
potential customer base, the Company intends to introduce its program to various
parties in the fruit and vegetable industry, as well as various government
officials. The company sales staff will carry out its marketing plan in the
areas of produce sales, equipment sales, food safe audits, and distribution
center access. The local marketing areas are the states of Arizona, California,
Maryland, Nevada, Oregon and Washington.
We also plan to market all services, products and produce through
outside commissioned sales persons and through our website,
http://www.e-foodsafety.com.
CUSTOMERS
Our potential customers for our food safety products include produce
shippers and processors, meat processors and liquid processors.. Customers for
our Knock-Out subsidiary products vary depending on the product. Potential
customers for our anthrax sporocidal may include the U.S. government, which has
expressed interest in products that kill the anthrax virus. Potential customers
for the germicidal cleaner includes nursing homes, hospitals and food service
facilities.
COMPETITION
The fresh fruits, vegetables and produce industries are extremely
competitive and have become highly fragmented over the years. Operators have
been attempting to hold or increase market share through the development and
operating of traditional sales and distribution outlets.
There are presently, to the best of our knowledge, no companies that
provide complete inspection services, processes and equipment. There are,
however, competitors that do provide partial food-safe programs. We would
compete with companies who use chlorine, irradiation and other methods designed
to eliminate pathogens and pesticides from produce and other food items.
We will compete with many different companies regarding certain
commodities in the market place including, but not limited to:
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
The only license required by the food safety products will be a PACA
(Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act) License and a State's License issued
by the State Department in each state the Company is conducting its business. On
December 9, 2003, the Company received its PACA license from the U.S. Department
of Agriculture. In June 2002, the FDA approved the use of ozone on food
products.
Any distribution center we develop would be subject to various federal,
state and municipal regulations with regards to health, safety and environmental
issues. Such facilities are subject to supervision or periodic inspection by
other regulators.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Although we have filed for patent protection for some of our certain
products, there is no assurance we will obtain patent approval. Even if they
were obtained, we may not have any patent protection for any derivative uses of
such products, or for any other products we may later acquire or develop. We
also cannot assure that we will be able to obtain foreign patents to protect our
products.
Litigation may be required to enforce our intellectual property rights,
protect our trade secrets or determine the validity and scope of proprietary
rights of others. Any action we take to protect our intellectual property rights
could be costly and could absorb significant management time and attention. In
addition, as a result of any such litigation, we could lose any proprietary
rights we have. If any of the foregoing occurs, we may be unable to execute on
our business plan and you could lose your investment.
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
We do not anticipate incurring material research and development costs
during the next 12 months, nor do we anticipate the acquisition or sale of any
material property, plant or equipment during the next 12 months. We have
acquired and expensed $43,712 and $0 for research and development during the
three months ended July 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
EMPLOYEES
We currently have six (6) paid full time employees. We believe that
relations with our employees is good. We believe that the management team will
eventually consist of approximately ten officers and/or directors and that, as
our business grows, we may have up to six (6) supervisors oversee the operations
divisions a distribution center. The employees at each facility will be
contracted through local vendors. Mr. Karney, our Chief Executive Officer and
the rest of the management team devote one hundred percent of their professional
time to the success of the business.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2004
Prior to April 2004, we had no active operations. Thus any comparisons
of results of operations and financial position compared with the three months
ended July 31, 2003 and the financial position as at July 31, 2004 are not
relevant.
SALES
Our revenues from operations for the three months ended July 31, 2004
were $17,634, and was generated from a sale of an Ozone Air Clean unit and
accessories on May 25, 2004.
COST OF SALES AND GROSS PROFIT
Our cost of sales for the three months ended July 31, 2004 was $5,835,
generating a percentage margin on sales of 66.91%.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and Development expenses include $8,500 cash compensation paid
to Mr. Nelson.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
A summary of our Selling, General and Administrative costs is as
follows:
Cash based compensation was paid to our staff of six full-time
employees, consulting fees for outside directors, legal advisors and marketing
consultants.
Other selling, general and administrative costs include rent, office
expenses, and travel expenses.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expenses of $10,959 were incurred during the three months
ended July 31, 2004 and relate to interest accrued on outstanding promissory
notes payable to related parties in lump-sum including interest at 5% on June 3,
2009. Interest expenses also included $3,238 from $2.0 million in convertible
debentures that were sold during the quarter.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of July 31, 2004, we had working capital of $2,408,236. As a result
of our operating losses during the three months ended July 31, 2004, we
generated a cash flow deficit of $587,195 from operating activities. We used
cash flows in connection with investing activities of $514,587 during the three
months ended July 31, 2004 for the purchase of components for truck sanitation
units to be put into operation during second quarter of the 2005 fiscal year,
and the purchase of marketable securities. We met our cash requirements for the
three months ended July 31, 2004 through loans of $675,000 from shareholders.
On July 21, 2004, the Company sold $2.0 million in convertible
debentures. The convertible debentures carry an interest rate of 6% per annum,
payable quarterly. We paid a consultant 10% of the gross proceeds of $2.0
million as a finder's fee. The debentures carry a conversion price of $0.40 per
share of the Company's common stock.
The purchasers of the debentures will receive an A Warrant to purchase
an amount of common stock equal to 50% of the number of shares of common stock
purchased via this investment. The A Warrants shall expire two years from the
date of issuance and the exercise price of the A Warrants shall be $0.80 per
share.
The purchasers of the debentures will also receive a B Warrant to
purchase an amount of common stock equal to 50% of the number of shares of
common stock purchased via this investment. The B Warrants shall expire two
years from the date of issuance and the exercise price of the B Warrants shall
be $1.00 per share.
Our operating revenues may be less than adequate to fund future
operations and growth. We will continue to fund our operations through
additional sales of our securities and/or through shareholder loans. There is no
guarantee that we will be successful in obtaining any additional financing
should it be required. If we cannot secure additional financing when needed, we
may be required to cease operations.
By adjusting its operations and development to the level of
capitalization, management believes it has sufficient capital resources to meet
projected cash flow deficits through the next twelve months.
However, if thereafter, we are not successful in generating sufficient
liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms
acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations liquidity and financial condition.
In May 2004, the Company incorporated Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd.
("Knock-out") as a wholly- owned subsidiary of the Company. Knock-Out is to be a
manufacturer of all-natural, non-toxic, food-grade products.
Our independent certified public accountants have stated in their
report, which is included with our audited financial statements for the year
ended April 30, 2004, that we have incurred operating losses in the last two
years and that we are dependent on management's ability to raise capital and
develop profitable operations. These factors, among others, may raise
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, special purpose entities,
financing partnerships or guarantees.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our critical accounting policies are those which we believe require
significant judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the
effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. A discussion of our critical
accounting policies is set forth in the Notes to our Financial Statements
included as part of this Registration Statement.
RISK FACTORS
An investment in our securities is very speculative and involves a high
degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, along
with the other matters discussed in this prospectus, before you decide to buy
our securities. Any of these factors could cause the value of your investment to
decline significantly or become worthless. If you decide to buy our securities,
you should be able to afford a complete loss of your investment.
WE ARE A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY, WITH VIRTUALLY NO REVENUE, LIMITED OPERATING
HISTORY, AND YOU COULD LOSE YOUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT.
We have had virtually no revenue and have operated with cash from debt
or equity financings. We have a limited operating history and our operations are
subject to all the risks inherent in a business enterprise with such a limited
operating history, including limited capital, possible delays in the development
and successful execution and implementation of our business plan, uncertain
markets, and the absence of an operating history. The likelihood that we will
succeed must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, and delays
frequently encountered in connection with the development of new businesses, as
well as many other factors. Our business has not shown a profit. Since we
commenced operations, we have accumulated a net loss. There is no assurance that
we will be able to develop successfully the business we are pursuing. We cannot
be certain that our business will be successful or that we will generate
significant revenues.
WE HAVE CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS AND WE MAY HAVE THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL CAPITAL IN
THE FUTURE.
As of July 31, 2004, we believe that execution of our primary business
goal will result in net losses for at least the next three quarters. Based on
our estimates, we believe our current resources will be sufficient to fund
operations through the first quarter of 2006. We had been dependent primarily on
private placements of our debt and equity securities and shareholder loans to
fund our operations. In the near term, we intend to focus on increasing our
revenues and marketing efforts for our products. Although our management is
cautiously optimistic that we will be able to grow our revenue in the near
future, there can be no assurance that we will generate sufficient revenue to
support our operations, and if such revenue will be sustainable.
In the event that we will seek additional capital, there can be no
assurance that any such funding will be available to us when needed, on
commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to generate
sufficient additional revenue or obtain additional financing if needed, we will
likely be required to curtail our marketing and operating plans and possibly
cease our operations. In addition, any additional equity financing may involve
substantial dilution to our then-existing stockholders.
Our independent accountants have included an explanatory paragraph in
our financial statements included in our public filings, which are incorporated
by reference into this prospectus, stating that we have incurred operating
losses since inception and that we are dependent on our management's ability to
develop profitable operations, and that these factors, among others, may raise
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
IF OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES DO NOT GAIN MARKET ACCEPTANCE, IT IS UNLIKELY THAT
WE WILL BECOME PROFITABLE.
The market for products that affect the sanitizing of fruits and vegetables is
evolving and we have many competitors. Competitors used various technologies,
including chlorine-based solutions, to eliminate pathogens and bacteria in the
food storage and distribution process. Compared to these technologies, our
technology is unproven and less mature, and the use of our technology by our
potential customers is limited. The commercial success of our products will
depend upon the adoption of our technology by food transportation, distribution
and storage facilities as an approach to remove pathogens from fruits,
vegetables and other foods. Market acceptance will depend on many factors,
including:
o the willingness and ability of food industry distributors and producers
to adopt new technologies;
o the willingness of governments to approve our products;
o our ability to convince potential industry customers that our
technology is an attractive alternative to currently accepted
technologies for reduction of pathogens from meats, fruits, vegetables
and other food items;
o our ability to manufacture products and provide services in sufficient
quantities with acceptable quality and at an acceptable cost; and
o the willingness by our potential customers to make capital expenditures
for our products.
If our products do not achieve a significant level of market
acceptance, demand for our products will not develop as expected and it is
unlikely that we will become profitable.
RISK OF LOSS OF INVESTMENT DUE TO HIGHLY COMPETITIVE NATURE OF OUR INDUSTRY.
The market for sanitation products for fruits and vegetables is intensely
competitive. We have limited operating history and minimal revenues from
operations. We currently have assets and financial resources, but we had
operated at a loss for some time and must now execute its business plan. We are
smaller than our national competitors, and consequently lack comparable
financial resources to enter into certain markets. In fact, we compete with
several companies that specialize in the $5 billion dollar fruit and vegetable
sanitation market. Most of these companies have longer histories, greater name
recognition and more financial resources than we do.
RISK OF FAILING TO OBTAIN CRITICAL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
We intend to enter into an agreement with Clarence W. Karney, who is our CEO and
a Director of the Company, for the right to use the Global Inspection Service
(GIS) that is a concept created by Mr. Karney. The company plans to negotiate an
agreement whereby GIS can be implemented and offered as a standard service. No
contract has been entered into to date although a letter of intent to contract
has been signed. Failure to reach a definitive agreement with Mr. Karney for the
right to offer GIS could adversely affect the Company's ability to continue in
business. Furthermore, no assurances can be given that a contract entered into
would be the product of arms length negotiations and result in terms favorable
to the Company.
DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL.
The success of the Company will depend to a great extent on Clarence Karney,
Patricia Ross-Gruden, Rich Speidell, William Nelson, and other members of our
management. These individuals do not have employment contracts and may terminate
their employment at any time. If we lose our key personnel, our business may
suffer. We depend substantially on the continued services and performance of our
senior management and, in particular, their contracts and relationships,
especially within the fresh fruit and vegetable industry.
NEED TO BUILD OUT OUR SALES AND MARKETING ORGANIZATION.
We are and shall continue marketing our existing products and future products
that we may license or acquire either through the utilization of contract sales
representatives and brokers, the establishment of our own sales force, strategic
alliances and various other methods. We are in the early stages of developing
such sales and marketing channels, and further development of those channels
will require an investment of substantial amounts of capital. Accordingly,
despite our plans, we may be unable to substantially develop our own marketing
channels.
WE MAY BE UNABLE TO PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, OR WE MAY INFRINGE
THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF OTHERS, WHICH MAY RESULT IN LAWSUITS AND
PREVENT US FROM SELLING OUR PRODUCTS.
We rely on patent, trademark, and trade secret laws to protect our trademarks,
content, and proprietary technologies and information. We have filed or intend
to file patents for several of our products. However, there can be no assurance
that such laws will provide sufficient protection to us, or other parties will
not develop technologies that are similar or superior to ours.
There are no pending lawsuits against us regarding infringement of any existing
patents or other intellectual property rights or any material notices that we
are infringing the intellectual property rights of others. However, there can be
no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement claims in the
future. If any claims are asserted and determined to be valid, there can be no
assurance that we will be able to obtain licenses of the intellectual property
rights in question or obtain licenses on commercially reasonable terms. Our
involvement in any patent dispute or other intellectual property dispute or
action to protect proprietary rights may have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results, and financial condition. Adverse determinations in
any litigation may subject us to liabilities, require us to seek licenses from
third parties, and prevent us from marketing and selling our products. Any of
these situations can have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results, and financial condition.
RISK OF INCURRING HIGH LEGAL COST DUE TO LITIGATION.
While we are not currently involved in any litigation, that is no indication
that we will be precluded from being sued in the future. In the past, especially
during periods of market volatility, securities class action litigation has
often been instituted against companies similar to ours. Such litigation, if
instituted, could result in substantial costs and diversions of management's
attention and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our
business, results of operations and financial condition.
RISK OF EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
The price or our stock could be affected by external influences, which are
beyond our control. Examples of these influences are:
o An abrupt economic change resulting in an unexpected downturn in
demand;
o Governmental restrictions or excessive taxes on imports;
o Over-abundance of products and services related to the sanitation
industry; and
o Sudden increase in raw materials, such as steel.
RISK DUE TO MINORITY STATUS OF NEW INVESTORS
Our directors and executive officers beneficially own approximately 52,885,000
common shares; approximately 55.76% of the outstanding common stock if all the
shares offered are sold. As a result, these shareholders, if they act as a
group, will have a significant influence on all matters requiring shareholder
approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant
corporate transactions. Such control may have the effect of delaying or
preventing a change in control of the Company.
RISKS DUE TO RESALE RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY STATE "BLUE SKY LAWS"
There are state regulations, which might affect the transferability of our
shares. We have not registered its shares for resale under the securities or
"blue sky" laws of any state and we have no plans to register or qualify its
shares in any state. Current shareholders, and persons who desire to purchase
the shares in any trading market that may develop in the future, should be aware
that there may be significant state restrictions upon the ability of new
investors to purchase the securities.
SEC and "blue sky" laws, regulations, orders, or interpretations place
limitations on offerings or sales of securities by development stage companies,
or if such securities represent "cheap stock" previously issued to promoters or
others. These limitations typically provide, in the form of one or more of the
following limitations, that such securities are:
o not eligible for sale under exemption provisions permitting sales
without registration to accredited investors or qualified purchasers;
o not eligible for the transactional exemption from registration for
non-issuer transactions by a registered broker-dealer;
o not eligible for registration under the simplified small corporate
offering registration (SCOR) form available in many states;
o required to be placed in escrow and the proceeds received held in
escrow subject to various limitations; or
o not permitted to be registered or exempted from registration, and thus
not permitted to be sold in the state under any circumstances.
Virtually all 50 states have adopted one or more of these limitations, or other
limitations or restrictions affecting the sale or resale of stock of development
stage companies, or "cheap stock" issued to promoters or others.
Specific limitations on offerings by development stage companies have been
adopted in:
Alaska Maryland Rhode Island
Arkansas Nebraska South Carolina
California New Mexico South Dakota
Delaware Ohio Tennessee
Florida Oklahoma Utah
Georgia Oregon Vermont
Idaho Pennsylvania Washington
Indiana
Any secondary trading market, which may develop, may only be conducted in those
jurisdictions where an applicable exemption is available or where the shares
have been registered.
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
concluded, based on an evaluation conducted within 90 days prior to the filing
date of this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB, that the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures have functioned effectively so as to provide those
officers the information necessary whether:
(i) this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB contains any untrue

10-QSB.
There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal
controls or in other factors since the date of the Chief Executive Officer's and
Chief Financial Officer's evaluation that could significantly affect these
internal controls, including any corrective actions with regards to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
