PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
BACKGROUND OF THE COMPANY
Anglotajik Minerals, Inc. was originally incorporated August 1, 1997 in
Nevada as MexiMed Industries to develop and produce a non-reusable medical
syringe. We later abandoned that business, as we lacked sufficient capital
resources. In 1999 we changed our name to Digital Video Display Technology Corp.
and obtained a license to market a patented audio video jukebox technology in
Canada and in five U.S. states. However, disagreements arising out of
contractual relationships impeded the development of the business. In July of
2001 we changed our name to Iconet, Inc. in connection with a proposal to build
the jukeboxes and sell them back to the licensor of the technology, but owing to
changing technology and to disagreements among our board as to the future
direction the company should take, we eventually abandoned that business as
well.
In June of 2002 we resolved to investigate some possible opportunities in
mineral exploration. We optioned a property in Ontario, Canada, but after our
due diligence investigation we elected not to proceed and mutually rescinded the
agreement.
In June of 2003 our board appointed Mr. Matthew Markin as president and as
a director to replace Randy Miller. Mr. Miller also resigned as director, so
that Mr. Markin became the sole executive officer and director of the Company.
Mr. Miller's resignation was voluntary to pursue other interests, and not as a
result of any dispute with the Company.
In July of 2003, we adopted a plan of reorganization whereby our common
stock was reverse split by a ratio of 1-for-143. Shortly thereafter, we effected
a 2-for-1 forward split. (See "Changes in Securities" below.) For the reader's
convenience, references to stock transactions throughout this Current Report are
expressed in terms of their post-split equivalents.
BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY
We are currently pursuing what we perceive to be promising opportunities in
mineral exploration. We are in negotiation with officials of the Republic of
Tajikistan to acquire interests in certain properties that have known
occurrences of valuable minerals, including gold, silver, aluminum, and perhaps
others. We do not currently have a producing mine or reserves of ore.
Tajikistan, in central Asia, was formerly part of the U.S.S.R., gaining
its independence in 1991. Tajikistan adopted a new constitution in 1994, which
restored the office of President, transformed the Soviet-era "Supreme Soviet"
into the Supreme Assembly, recognized civil liberties and property rights, and
provided for a judiciary. However, factionalism led to a five-year civil war,
which ended in a peace agreement in 1997 and a new republican government, with
executive and legislative branches and a judiciary, implemented in 2000.
-1-
Attention in the wake of the war in Afghanistan has brought increased economic
development assistance, which analysts believe could create jobs and increase
stability in the long term. The country is seeking World Trade Organization
membership and has joined NATO's Partnership for Peace.
Tajikistan is known to have significant natural resources, including
hydropower, uranium, some petroleum, mercury, brown coal, lead, zinc, antimony,
tungsten, silver, and gold. The civil war (1992-1997) severely damaged the
already weak economic infrastructure and caused a sharp decline in industrial
and agricultural production. Since the war, however, economic growth has been
steady, with a rate of 5% for the year 2002 (estimated). A debt restructuring
agreement was reached with Russia in December 2002, which included an interest
rate of 4%, a 3-year grace period, and a US$49.8 million credit to the Central
Bank of Tajikistan. A number of foreign corporations are currently active in
Tajikistan in the exploration, development, and production stages.
We have been engaged in discussions with officials of the government of
Tajikistan regarding the acquisition of exploration rights to certain properties
where mineral deposits are known to exist. In March of 2004 we completed a
formal agreement with the Tajikistan Ministry of Industry granting us exclusive
mineral exploration and development rights in a 400 square kilometer area of
southeastern Tajikistan known as the Rushan Complex. See Item 2 - Description of
Property.
We have entered into key-employee contracts with two Tajik nationals who
will assist us in business development there, to include establishing our
offices and corporate infrastructure, liaison with the appropriate ministers and
other federal and local governmental authorities, translation, and various other
functions which may be important or essential to the establishment and
continuation of our proposed exploration activities (see "Employees" below). At
an appropriate future date, we intend to either employ or contract appropriate
experts in the field of mineral exploration.
Subsequent to the period covered by this report, we employed Dr. Vladislav
Minaev as our Chief Geologist. We understand Dr. Minaev to be the country's
recognized leading authority on the Rushan Complex, as he was originally
involved in the Pamir Expedition's exploration of the property during 1971-77.
He continued to work on the property throughout the further exploration and
independent study performed by Kilborn Engineering in 1997-98. Dr. Minaev was
introduced to us and recommended by the Minister of Industry during Management's
most recent trip to Dushanbe.
We currently have no cash or sources of financing. Our President has
advanced funds to us for our business planning activities, but is under no
obligation to continue to do so. We are attempting to obtain equity financing in
the form of a private placement of our stock so that we can commence exploration
operations if and when we reach a satisfactory agreement with the government of
Tajikistan.
-2-
FACILITIES
We currently occupy office space provided to us at no cost by our
President, Matthew Markin. Mr. Markin is under no obligation to continue to
provide us free office space for any period of time in the future. Our offices
are located at 11400 West Olympic Boulevard Suite 200, Los Angeles, California
90064. Our telephone number is (310) 445-8819.
Contingent upon completing an adequate financing arrangement, we expect to
open an office in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, in December of 2003. The Dushanbe office
will serve as our local base for our operations in Tajikistan.
EMPLOYEES
We currently have four employees, our sole executive officer, and our three
contract employees in Tajikistan. Once the office in Dushanbe is opened, we
expect to recruit two or three additional office staff. If and when we acquire
funding to proceed with exploration in the IKAR region, we expect to either hire
or contract additional staff for positions in the office and in the field.
However, we have not yet deteremined how many or what those positions will be.
RISK FACTORS
An investment in our securities involves certain risks, including those
enumerated below. You should consider the following specific risks before making
an investment in our securities.
EXPLORATION FOR ECONOMIC DEPOSITS OF MINERALS IS SPECULATIVE. The business
of mineral exploration is very speculative, since there is generally no way to
recover any of the funds expended on exploration unless the existence of
mineable reserves can be established and the Company can exploit those reserves
by either commencing mining operations, selling or leasing its interest in the
property, or entering into a joint venture with a larger resource company that
can further develop the property to the production stage. We expect to expend
considerable funds before we are able to determine whether we have a
commercially mineable ore body. Should we fail to find adequate valuable
minerals before our funds are exhausted, and if we cannot raise additional
capital, we will have to discontinue operations, which could make our stock
valueless.
OUR CURRENT MANAGEMENT LACKS EXPERIENCE IN THE BUSINESS OF MINERAL
EXPLORATION. Our Directors and Executive Officers lack significant experience or
technical training in exploring for precious mineral deposits and developing
mines. We intend to recruit management and advisory personnel who have such
experience, but until we do our management may not be fully aware of many of the
specific requirements related to working within this industry. Their decisions
-3-
and choices may not take into account standard engineering or managerial
approaches such as mineral exploration companies commonly use. Thus, our
operations, earnings, and ultimate financial success could suffer irreparable
harm due to management's lack of experience in the industry.
WE EXPECT TO ISSUE ADDITIONAL COMMON SHARES IN THE FUTURE WHICH WOULD
DILUTE THE OUTSTANDING SHARES. As of October 31, 2002, approximately 281,881,035
shares of our common stock were authorized but unissued including 699,301
reserved for the possible exercise of options. These shares may be issued in the
future without stockholder approval. The prices at which we sell these
securities and other terms and provisions will depend on prevailing market
conditions and other factors in effect at that time, all of which are beyond our
control. Shares may be issued at prices which are less than the then-current
market price of our common stock.
WE HAVE NO MINING OPERATIONS, AND DO NOT KNOW IF WE WILL EVER REACH THE
DEVELOPMENT STAGE. We currently have no revenues from operations, no mining
operations, and no reserves. We may never reach the development stage, and if we
do investors in our shares will face additional risks, hazards and
uncertainties, including gold bullion losses, environmental hazards, industrial
accidents, labor disputes, unusual or unexpected geological formations or other
geological or grade problems, unanticipated ground or water conditions,
cave-ins, pit wall failures, flooding, rock falls, periodic interruptions due to
inclement or hazardous weather conditions, other unfavorable operating
conditions and other acts of God. Such risks could result in damage to or
destruction of mineral properties or costs that make further activities
prohibitively expensive.
WE MAY BE SUBJECT TO EXTRAORDINARY BUSINESS RISKS RELATED TO CONDUCTING
BUSINESS OPERATIONS IN A DEVELOPING COUNTRY. We propose to explore for valuable
minerals in Tajikistan, a newly-independent country that was part of the Former
Soviet Union. We may face additional risks and uncertainties there such as
political instability, currency exchange losses, inadequate infrastructure,
security issues, cultural conflicts, civil strife, government policy changes,
and others. We intend to insure against such risks to the extent practical;
however, we may experience interruptions in our activities, financial losses, or
even cessation of our activities there as a result of such risks.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Current Report contains "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause the
company's actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted
results. These may include statements contained under "Risk Factors,"

Report. In particular, as an exploration stage company our future is highly
uncertain.
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.
Our agreement with the government of the Republic of Tajikistank grants us
exclusive rights to explore, and if warranted to develop, sites of our choosing
within a 400 square kilometer area of southeastern Tajikistan known as the
Rushan Complex. A great deal has been reported about the geology and
mineralization of the region during a period of extensive exploration under the
former Soviet regime from 1970 through 1977. After studying the available
literature, including the comprehensive 1978 technical report of the "Pamir
Expedition", and an independent study in 1997-98 by Kilborn Engineering of
Alberta, we have elected to conduct further exploration in the mineralized zone
known as the IKAR Deposit.
The Pamir Expedition identified 10 "mineralized zones" in the IKAR Deposit,
of which six have been designated "ore bodies." To facilitate identification,
and because we have not evaluated the sites to determine the existence of
recoverable ores according to Western industry standards, we will use the term
"mineralized units" when referring to the structures the Soviet report
identifies as "ore bodies."
Subsequent to the period covered by this report, we elected to commence our
exploration activities in Tajikistan in the Ikar Depost. The Soviet exploration
documents indicate the tungsten/gold deposit as having, on the surface, 8
mineralized segments which have been identified along a trend extending for
approximately 1km. Trenches 1m wide by 1m deep totaling 2183 meters, have been
excavated and sampled across mineralization which varies in width from 0.6 to
3.9 meters. An Adit (i.e., and underground passage), excavated at an elevation
level of 2770 meters is documented to be 2354 meters (2.35 Kilometers / 1.46
miles) deep consisting of 2m wide by 3m high drifts and crosscuts (horizontal
tunnels cut to gain access to the vein), some 160-340 meters beneath the surface
exposures. During this Soviet exploration period, diamond drilling was completed
from surface (5 holes totaling 1515 meters) and underground (17 horizontal holes
totaling 2737 meters and 12 holes angled down totaling 2978 meters) in all
totaling 7230 meters (7.23 kilometers / 4.493 miles).
-5-
The Soviet compilation of these exploration results indicate average grades
of various mineralized units that range from 2 - 9 gms/tonne Au, 2-9 gms/tonne
Ag, 0.1 - 0.8% WO3, 0.1 - 0.4% Cu and 0.05 - 0.4% Co. These results were broadly
confirmed by Kilborn Engineering, an independent internationally recognized
North American mining and engineering corporation based in Alberta, Canada,
subject to certain qualifications on sample sizes and exact locations. Soviet
Exploration grades reported within the Silver deposit indicate mineralization
ranging between several grams Ag. per tonne and 22,790 grams Ag., per tonne.
These were identified in fault and fracture controlled quartz veins across
widths varying between 0.5 to 1.5 meters. Many veins and structures are listed
within the 1978 Soviet exploration documents, but maps and section
identifications have not yet been made available. Current evaluations regarding
procedures to clarify and confirm these measurements to western metal
measurement standards are being addressed.
We have engaged Arctex Engineering Services to consult with us on the
development of an exploration plan for the IKAR Deposit and possibly other
properties.
Under the terms of our agreeement with the Tajikistan Ministry of Industry
(the "Ministry") we are to submit an exploration plan and budget for each site
we propose to explore. At that time the Ministry and we will discuss and arrive
at an agreement as to royalty or other compensation arrangements in the event
the results of exploration warrant development of the property.
Although specifics of our proposed exploration plan remain to be
determined, in general we intend to follow the recommendations for exploration
of the IKAR Deposit contained in the Kilborn Engineering 1998-99 Report. Work
will be done to clean up all the overburden, reinforce and clean the original
Adit and commence a drilling program, which would be similar to the original
drilling program completed by the Pamir Expedition during it's extensive
exploration program of 1971-77. The property will be drilled out according to
the original drill program and the new core will be split and samples will be
assayed under extreme security and stringent western assay principals. These
assay's would be performed in countries outside of Tajikistan including Germany
and Canada.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
Merrill Lynch Canada Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") filed suit against ua on June
26, 2001, seeking damages in connection with an alleged dispute related to the
sale of restricted shares of the Company's common stock to Merrill Lynch by a
non-affiliate stockholder. The case is captioned "Merrill Lynch vs. Digitial
Video Display Technology, and others" and is identified as Action No. S-004012
in the Vancouver Law Court, Supreme Court of British Columbia. The case is in
its very early stages, and our legal counsel has not yet formed an opinion as to
the merits of the suit or the likely outcome.
We are not aware of any other current or threatened legal proceedings
disclosable under this item.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
Plan of Operation
We are in the exploration stage and have no revenues from operations, nor
do we expect revenues for the foreseeable future. To date, we have funded our
various business activities through advances from officers and stockholders and
through the issuance of equity stock. Our officers are under no obligation to
continue to provide advances to the us.
We have no cash or cash equivalent resources, no lines of credit, nor
any other source of funds. We are negotiating with various commercial funding
sources in Europe to raise approximately %5,000,000 to fund our exploration
operations, although we have not yet received any commitments from any source
for any amount of funding. We will not be able to begin a meaningful exploration
program unless and until we acquire funding.
-9-
If we are able to obtain financing, we expect to spend approximately
$2,000,000 on exploration of the IKAR Deposit property before making a
determination whether or not to proceed with development. Whether we conduct any
other exploration activities will depend upon the amount of financing, if any,
we are able to obtain.
If we sell equity stock to raise capital, our current stockholders will
experience substantial dilution of their shareholdings.

ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Anglotajik Minerals, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Anglotajik Minerals, Inc. as
of December 31, 2003 and the related statements of operations, stockholders'
equity and cash flows for the year then ended. The 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 audit. The
financial statements of Anglotajik Minerals, Inc. for the year ended December
31, 2002, were audited by other auditors whose report dated May 14, 2003
expressed an unqualified opinion.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit 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 audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Anglotajik Minerals, Inc. as of
December 31, 2003 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the year
then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, the Company's
operating loss and lack of working capital raise substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to those
matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Iconet, Inc. (an exploration
stage Company) as of December 31, 2002, and the related statements of
operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years ended December
31, 2002, and 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted

exploration stage), as of December 31, 2002, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2002, and 2001, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 1 to the
financial statements, the Company is in the Exploration stage, and existing cash
and available credit are insufficient to fund the Company's cash flow needs for
the next year. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these
matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Anglotajik Minerals, Inc.
(A Company in the Exploration Stage)
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a. Organization
Anglotajik Minerals, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of
Nevada in August 1997, under the name Meximed Industries, Inc. In January
1999 the Company changed its name to Digital Video Display Technology
Corporation and in July 2001 to Iconet, Inc. With new management in the
middle of 2003 the company again changed its name to Anglotajik Minerals,
Inc. The Company is considered to be in the exploration stage as its
operations principally involve research and exploration, market analysis,
and other business planning activities, and no revenue has been generated
from its business activities.
These financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. The Company is currently in the
exploration stage and existing cash and available credit are insufficient
to fund the Company's cash flow needs for the next year. The Company plans
to raise additional capital through private placements. The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual
results could differ from those estimates.
b. 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. As of December 31, 2003, and 2002, the Company
held no cash equivalents.
c. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Unless otherwise indicated, the fair values of all reported assets and
liabilities which represent financial instruments (none of which are held
for trading purposes) approximate the carrying values of such amounts.
d. Provision for Income taxes
No provision for income taxes has been recorded due to net operating loss
carryforwards totaling over $5.1 million that will be offset against future
taxable income. Thes NOL carryforwards begin to expire in the year 2017. No
tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements because the
Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the carryforward will
expire unused.
-21-
The deferred tax asset and the valuation account is as follows at December
31, 2003 and 2002:

Valuation allowance (1,787,725) (1,287,659)
--------------- ---------------
Total - -
================ ===============
e. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements
and accompanying notes. In these financial statements, assets, liabilities
and earnings involve extensive reliance on managements estimates. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
f. Earning (loss) per share
Net loss per share is provided in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128 Earnings Per Share. Basic loss per
share for each period is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted loss per share is computed in a manner consistent with that of
basic loss per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common
shares that were outstanding during the period. The number of additional
shares is calculated by assuming that outstanding stock options were
exercised and that the proceeds from such exercises were used to acquire
shares of common stock at the average market price during the reporting
period. The weighted averages for the years ended December 31, 2003, and
2002, and from inception reflect the reverse stock split of 1:200 that was
approved by the board of directors in July 2001, the 1:143 reverse stock
split effective July 16, 2003 and the 2:1 forward split on September 15,
2003.
NOTE 2 - New Technical Pronouncements
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of FAS 123. SFAS No. 148
amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation, to provide
alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the
fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. It
also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent
-22-
disclosure about the effects on reported net income of an entity's accounting
policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation. This
Statement also amends APB Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to
require disclosure about those effects in interim financial information. SFAS
No. 148 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15,
2002. The adoption of the interim disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 did not
have an impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or
cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating whether to adopt the fair value
based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation in accordance
with SFAS No. 148 and its resulting impact on the Company's financial
statements.
In January 2003, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") issued EITF Issue No.
00-21, Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. This
consensus addresses certain aspects of accounting by a vendor for arrangements
under which it will perform multiple revenue-generating activities,
specifically, how to determine whether an arrangement involving multiple
deliverables contains more than one unit of accounting. EITF Issue No. 00-21 is
effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning
after June 15, 2003, or entities may elect to report the change in accounting as
a cumulative-effect adjustment. The adoption of EITF Issue No. 00-21 did not
have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation ("FIN") No. 46, Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities. Until this interpretation, a company generally
included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only if it
controlled the entity through voting interests. FIN No. 46 requires a variable
interest entity, as defined, to be consolidated by a company if that company is
subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's
activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns.
FIN No. 46 is effective for reporting periods ending after December 15, 2003.
The adoption of FIN No. 46 did not have an impact on the Company's financial
statements.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which amends and clarifies
accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. SFAS
No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003
and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of
SFAS No. 149 will not have an impact on the Company's financial statements.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150
changes the accounting guidance for certain financial instruments that, under
previous guidance, could be classified as equity or "mezzanine" equity by now
requiring those instruments to be reported as liabilities. SFAS No. 150 also
requires disclosure relating to the terms of those instruments and settlement
alternatives. SFAS No. 150 is generally effective for all financial instruments
entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and is otherwise effective at the
beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The
adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have an impact on the Company's financial
statements.
-23-
In December 2003, the SEC issued SAB No. 104. SAB No. 104 revises or rescinds
portions of the interpretative guidance included in Topic 13 of the codification
of staff accounting bulletins in order to make this interpretive guidance
consistent with current authoritative accounting and auditing guidance and SEC
rules and regulations. It also rescinds the Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements Frequently Asked Questions and Answers document issued in conjunction
with Topic 13. Selected portions of that document have been incorporated into
Topic 13. The adoption of SAB No. 104 in December 2003 did not have an impact on
the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 3 - Stock Options
The Company applies APB Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for
its stock option plans. No compensation cost has been recognized during the year
ended December 31, 2003. Deferred compensation is recorded only when the market
price exceeds the option price at the grant date. Compensation is recorded using
the straight-line method over the vesting period.
In September 2001 the Company issued an option to purchase 13,986 shares of
common stock at $0.10 per share to a Director of the Company. The Company
accrued $400,000 in deferred compensation costs, as the option price at the
grant date was less than the market price. The option expires in September 2006.
The compensation cost will be accrued over the vesting period. Compensation
costs of $280,000 and $100,000 were included in the statements of operation for
the years ended December 31, 2003, and 2002, respectively.
In September 2003 the Company issued an option to purchase 699,301 shares of
common stock at $0.21 per share to a Director of the Company. The Company did
not accrue any deferred compensation costs, as the option price was greater that
the market price on the date of grant. The option expires in July 2011. Had
compensation cost for the Company's stock-based compensation plan been
determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards under those
plans consistent with the method of FASB Statement 123, the Company's net loss
and loss per share would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated
below:
2003
-------------
Net loss:
As reported $ 1,381,726
Pro forma $ 1,383,918
Loss per share:
As reported $ 0.17
Pro forma $ 0.17
The Company has determined the pro-forma information as if the Company had
accounted for the stock option granted on July 1, 2003, under the fair value
method of SFAS 123. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was used with a risk
free interest rate of 4.67%; dividend yield of 0.0%; a volatility factor of 214%
and an expected life of 8 years. The fair value of the stock options granted in
July 2003 is $0.01 per share. If the Company had recognized deferred
compensation cost based on the fair value method, it would have increased
deferred compensation by $6,577. It would also have increased the compensation
cost for the year by $2,192.
-24-
NOTE 4 - Related Party Transactions
During the years ended December 31, 2003, and 2002, the Company charged $37,500,
and $276,084 respectively, to consulting expense, and $0 and $80,000,
respectively, to legal fees for services rendered by directors or stockholders
of the Company. Outstanding balances payable for consulting and legal fees to
these related parties were $450,465 and $481,065 at December 31, 2003, and 2002,
respectively.
The President of Anglotajik Minerals, Inc. advanced the Company funds to pay
expenses. During the year ended December 31, 2003, travel and other office
expenses of $62,073 were paid by an officer.
In May 2003 the Company issued 13,986 shares of its common stock to the officer
pursuant to a stock option dated September 1, 2001. This issuance relieved
officer advances payable and consulting fees payable by $31,900 and $68,100,
respectively.
In July 2003 the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 286,713
restricted common shares to the President to relieve the shareholder advance of
$48,773 and for a receivable of $51,227 from the President.
During the third quarter of 2003, the President was the only member of the Board
of Directors. In July 2003 the Company issued an option to purchase 699,301
shares of common stock at $0.21 per share to a Director of the Company. Also in
July 2003 a signing bonus of $100,000 was paid to the President via the issuance
of 279,720 shares of restricted common stock. Wages payable to the President of
$120,000 for 3rd and 4th quarter were accrued during the year.
During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company issued a total of
16,999,984 common shares to each of the shareholders to whom interest was due on
an old line of credit. The issuance of these shares relieved the entire
outstanding payable of $150,519.
NOTE 5 - Stockholders' Equity
In July 2003 the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 286,713
restricted common shares to the President in exchange for a shareholder advance
of $48,773 and a receivable from the President of $51,227. The President is the
only member of the Board of Directors. Also in July 2003 a signing bonus of
$100,000 was paid to the President via the issuance of 279,720 shares of
restricted common stock.
In July 2003 a reverse stock split of 1:143 was authorized by the Board of
Directors, and the number of authorized shares was increased to 300 million. The
financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse
stock split.
In August 2003 the Company issued 16,999,984 common shares to the shareholders
to whom interest was due on the line of credit. The issuance of these shares
relieved the entire outstanding payable of $150,519.
-25-
In September 2003 a 2:1 forward stock split was authorized by the Board of
Directors. The financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect
the forward stock split.
On October 13, 2003 the board of directors authorized the issuance of 1,000,000
shares of restricted common stock to a law firm for services valued at $370,000.
NOTE 6 - Commitments and Contingencies
There are various claims and lawsuits pending against the Company arising in the
normal course of the Company's business. Although the amount of liability at
December 31, 2003, cannot be ascertained, management is of the opinion that any
resulting liability will not materially affect the Company's financial position.
Merrill Lynch Canada Inc., has filed suit against the Company regarding a
dispute related to the sale of its restricted common stock by an unrelated third
party to Merrill Lynch. At this time the Company does not know if it will
sustain a loss, or the amount of the loss.
The Company settled an action by a bank regarding an overdraft. The settlement
carried an interest rate of 9.0% and twelve monthly payments of $3,321. The
Company made three payments before defaulting on this settlement. The amount due
as of December 31, 2003 is $28,343. Related interest of $4,692 has also been
accrued by the Company.
ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES.
On February 13, 2004 the board of directors of Anglotajik Minerals, Inc.
appointed the firm of Chisholm, Bierwolf and Nilson of Salt Lake City, Utah to
be the company's certifying accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31,
