NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED September 30, 2001
Note 1 - ORGANIZATION AND HISTORY
The Company is a Colorado corporation and had been in the development stage since
its formation on February 12, 1988. The Company was formed to seek potential
business acquisitions and its activities since inception are primarily related
to its initial public offering and merger activities.
Upon the completion of the acquisition of Concorde Management, Ltd. and its
wholly owned subsidiary, L'Abbigliamento, Ltd., the Company had ceased being a
development stage company. This acquisition was effective July 1, 1997.
L'Abbigliamento, Ltd. is a New York State corporation which was incorporated
in March, 1992. L'Abbigliamento, Ltd. commenced operations in August of 1992 as
an importer of fine men's clothing. In October of 1995 Vista International Ltd.,
incorporated in the Cayman Islands, was organized to acquire raw material and to
sell finished goods to areas outside the United States. Effective July 1, 1997
L'Abbigliamento, Ltd. and Vista International Ltd. were acquired through an
exchange of stock by Concorde Strategies Group, Inc. As a result of the
Company's changed focus, an agreement for the divestiture of L'Abbigliamento,
Ltd. effective March 31, 1999, was approved by shareholders on August 12, 1999
(See Note 8), and the divestiture was completed.
On April 21, 1999, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Share
Exchange with W3 Group, Inc. a Delaware corporation which was formed to acquire
and develop young companies whose businesses involved the development of Internet
related technology and applications. Effective October 1, 1999, the Agreement was
completed and the Company changed its name to W3 Group, Inc. (See Note 8).
Note 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting Method
The Company records income and expenses on the accrual method.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, cash on deposit and highly
liquid investments with maturities generally of three months or less.
Deferred Offering Costs
Costs associated with the Company's private offerings have been charged to the
proceeds of the offering. If the offerings are unsuccessful, the costs are
charged to operations.
Sales and expenses
Sales and expenses are recorded using the accrual basis of accounting.
Fixed assets and accumulated depreciation
Fixed assets consist of a computer system and are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation which is provided for by charges to operations over the estimated
useful lives of the assets.
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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Note 3 - CAPITALIZATION
In April 1996, the Company undertook a private placement of its securities
pursuant to the provisions of Rule 504 under Regulation D under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, whereby it issued 9,000,000 shares of its Common Stock
in exchange for the satisfaction of $45,000 in debts owed by the Registrant. Also
in April 1996, the Company effected a 1-for-10 reverse split of its common stock
as the result of which the Company had, following the aforesaid private offering,
1,200,000 shares issued and outstanding. This reverse split was effected in
anticipation of management's renewed efforts to find a suitable business
opportunity for the Company.
In June, 1997 the Company issued 300,000 shares of common stock to certain
parties who had performed services on behalf of the Company. The shares were
issued in consideration for the cancellation of payments owed by the Company at
the agreed upon rate of $.10 per share and were sold through a Private Placement
pursuant to the exemption provided by Rule 504 of Regulation D under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
On October 24, 1997, the Company completed a Private Placement Offering of
450,000 non dividend bearing, no par value, Series B Convertible Preferred
Shares. All of the shares were sold by the Company and no Placement Agent was
involved in this Offering. The shares were sold at a purchase price of $.3125
per share and the Company realized proceeds of $130,633 from the Offering, net
of offering expenses in the amount of $9,992. The shares were sold through a
Private Placement pursuant to the exemption provided by Rule 504 of Regulation
D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Each Preferred Share is
convertible into one and one quarter (1.25) shares of the Company's Common Stock,
no par value, at the election of the Preferred Shareholder at any time after
thirteen months from the date of issuance thereof and for a period of four years
thereafter, ending on October 14, 2002. As discussed below, the conversion right
of the Series B Preferred Shares has been adjusted as a result of a one for
thirty reverse split of the Company's Common Stock on October 1, 1999.
On January 7, 1998, the Company issued 315,000 shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred shares to certain parties who had performed services on behalf of the
Company, including two companies which are principally owned by two Directors of
the Company. The shares were issued by the Company in consideration for the
cancellation of debt owed by the Company at the agreed upon rate of $.25 per
share and were sold through a Private Placement pursuant to the exemption
provided by Rule 504 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
On June 22, 1998, the registrant issued 300,000 shares of Common Stock to a
company which has performed services on behalf of the registrant. The shares
were issued pursuant to an option in the Consulting Agreement to pay for the
consulting fees through the issuance of restricted shares of Common Stock at the
agreed upon rate of $.47 per share.
On August 12, 1998, the Company completed a Private Placement of 337,600 Series
B Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Warrants. All of the Warrants were sold
by the Company and no Placement Agent was involved in this Offering. The
Warrants were sold at a purchase price of $1.00 per Warrant and the Company
realized proceeds of $325,600 from the Offering, net of offering expenses in the
amount of $12,000. The Warrants were sold through a Private Placement pursuant
to the exemption provided by Rule 504 of Regulation D under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one
Series B Convertible Preferred Share at a price of $3.00 per share during the
period commencing thirteen months after the date of the issuance thereof and
continuing until February 1, 2002. The warrants are redeemable by the Company
at any time after thirteen months after their issuance and prior to their
expiration at a price of $0.05 per warrant, upon 30 days prior written notice,
provided that the closing sale price of the shares as reported on the NASD
Electronic Bulletin Board shall have been at least $4.80 (160% of the exercise
price of the warrants) on each of the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the
tenth day prior to the day on which the notice of redemption is given.
On April 1, 1999, the Company sold 175,000 shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred stock to certain parties who had performed services on behalf of the
Company, including one company which is principally owned by a Director of the
Company. The shares were sold by the Company in consideration for the
cancellation of payments owed by the Company at the agreed upon rate of $2.00 per
share and were sold through a Private Placement pursuant to the exemption
provided by Rule 504 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
On May 21, 1999, 199,995 restricted shares of Common Stock were sold to a
principal of L'Abbigliamento, Ltd. who had performed consulting services on
behalf of the registrant. These shares were issued in October, 1999 in
consideration for the cancellation of payments in the total amount of $64,995
owed by the registrant for said services.
In October, 1999, the Company issued 116,000 shares of the Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock to three shareholders in satisfaction of a previously existing
obligation relating to consulting services performed on behalf of the Company by
an independent third party.
Effective October 1, 1999, the Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange (the
"Agreement") with W3 Group, Inc. a privately owned company, was completed. (See
Note 8). Under the terms of this Agreement, Concorde acquired 100 percent of the
capital stock of W3 Group, Inc. in exchange for an equal number of shares
(3,250,000) of Concorde's post split Common Stock. W3 Group, Inc, became a wholly
owned subsidiary of Concorde, and Concorde changed its corporation name to W3
Group, Inc.
Also, on October 1, 1999, the reverse split of Concorde's Common Stock on the
basis of one new share for each 30 existing shares was effected. The number of
outstanding shares of Concorde's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series
B Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Warrants remained unchanged, however, the
conversion feature has been adjusted to reflect the reverse split.
As per the Agreement, a special distribution of 520,056 Common Stock Purchase
Warrants was made on October 4, 1999 to holders of the registrant's Common Stock,
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
Purchase Warrants. The special distribution was made on the basis of one Common
Stock Purchase Warrant for each ten shares of Common Stock (pre-reverse split)
either outstanding as of September 30, 1999 or committed to be issued upon
conversion of the then outstanding Preferred shares, or the currently outstanding
Warrants to purchase Preferred Shares. The Common Stock Purchase Warrants are
callable and each represent the right to purchase one share of Common Stock at
a price of $6.00 per share during the exercise period, which is from the date of
their issuance until October 1, 2001. None of the Common Stock Purchase Warrants
were exercised during the exercise period and all of them expired on October 1,
2001, subsequent to the period covered by the report (See "Note 10 - Subsequent
Event").
On October 16, 1999, the Company issued 11,800 shares of Common Stock to the
original investors in Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Warrants to adjust for the effect of the
Company's restructuring.
At a special meeting of shareholders on January 18, 2000, shareholders approved
amending the articles of incorporation to adjust the conversion right of the
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock from an amount equal to 0.0416 shares to 0.5
(one half) share of Common Stock for each one share of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock. Series B Convertible Preferred Stock may be converted to Common
Stock at the election of the shareholder until October 14, 2002.
On April 27, 2000, the registrant issued 300,000 restricted shares of Common
Stock to a former director of the Company in consideration for services being
performed on behalf of the registrant. The shares were issued in lieu of cash
payment at the agreed upon rate of $1.375 per share.
The Company withdrew its private placement offering which had commenced on
December 14, 1999, and returned the private placement proceeds of $50,000 to the
subscribers on May 3, 2000.

ITEM 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of
Operations:
Results of Operations
The Company did not have any revenue during the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2001, or during the comparable periods for the prior year.
Pursuant to SAFS-5, "Accounting for Contingencies", the Company has written off the
outstanding loan receivable and related interest receivable from its former operating subsidiary,
L'Abbigliamento, Ltd., since the loan has been in default for over two years, and repayment of
said loan cannot be reasonably assured. A total of $177,751 was written off to bad debt expense
during the period covered by this report, consisting of the loan balance of $157,522 and interest
receivable in the amount of $20,229 (see Note 7, "DIVESTITURE OF SUBSIDIARY" and Note
9, "WRITE OFF OF BAD DEBT" in the financial statements contained herein).
The Company is still pursuing L'Abbigliamento, Ltd. in regard to obtaining payments toward the
loan but no assurances can be made regarding any such payments.
Operating expenses for the three month period ended September 30, 2001 were $255,670, an
increase of $147,795 from the prior year's period, resulting primarily from bad debt expense of
$177,751 as described in the above, and decreased professional fees and marketing expenses.
The net loss for the three month period ended September 30, 2001 was $2546507,756 compared
to a net loss of $106,705 for the comparable period in the prior year, an increased loss of
$147,802, resulting from the aforementioned changes in operating expenses.
The net loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2001 was $408,313, an increased
loss of $165,697 from the prior year's comparable period, resulting primarily from decreased
marketing expenses of $30,400, decreased professional fees of $29,352, decreased office and

Business Objectives
W3 Group, Inc. intends to acquire, finance, and restructure profitable companies that can utilize
the Internet to expand their business and distribution channel. W3's plan is based on analysis and
evaluation of the current industry environment, trends, and perceived opportunities in certain
industries within the Internet. W3 intends to focus on existing companies that have proven
markets, profitability, and management. W3's objective is to provide a platform for selected
companies to expand their markets via use of the Internet, strengthen internal functions by
providing consulting services and professional management support, and expansion capital,
while allowing the companies to continue management of daily operations.
W3's approach is to develop "partnerships" with companies having exceptional management in
order to improve the long term value of a business. The participation of management through
equity based compensation and stock ownership is a crucial ingredient of W3's plan.
