NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 ---------------------------------------- The accompanying financial statements of W3 Group, Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2002 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2003. Note 1 - Organization and History --------------------------------- The Company was originally incorporated in the State of Colorado 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. On May 7, 2003 the Company changed its state of incorporation to Delaware (See Note 11). 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 corporationwhich 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 7 - Divestiture of Subsidiary" and "Note 8 - Merger and Acquisitions") 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 - Merger and Acquisitions".) Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies --------------------------------------------------- Accounting Method ----------------- The Company records income and expenses on the accrual method. 5 W3 GROUP, INC. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 ---------------------------------------- Cash and Cash Equivalents ------------------------- Cash and cash equivalents include 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 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. 6 W3 GROUP, INC. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 ---------------------------------------- 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 was originally 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 was adjusted as a result of a 1-for-30 reverse split of the Company's Common Stock on October 1, 1999. Also, as discussed below, the conversion right was further adjusted on January 18, 2000 so that each share of Series B Preferred Stock may be converted to 0.5 (one half) share of Common Stock at the election of the shareholder. 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 ("B Warrants"). All of the B Warrants were sold by the Company and no placement agent was involved in this offering. The B 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 B 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 B Warrant entitled 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. None of the 337,600 B Warrants were exercised and all of them expired on February 1, 2002. 7 W3 GROUP, INC. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 ---------------------------------------- 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 - Merger and Acquisitions".) Under the terms of this Agreement, Concorde acquired one hundred (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 was 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 represents 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 such Warrants expired on October 1, 2001. 8 W3 GROUP, INC.

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 ---------------------------------------- Note 10 - Going Concern ----------------------- As of September 30, 2003, the Company had stockholders' deficit of $533,547 and no cash. The audit report accompanying the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002 contains a going concern qualification because the Company has no operations, has incurred recurring losses and has no cash. As a result, substantial doubt exists about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis under which an entity is considered to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Refer to the audit report contained in "PART F/S" of Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2002. Operations to date have been primarily financed by equity transactions. Management is re-evaluating business opportunities and looking for a new direction for the Company. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Note 11 - Change of Company's Domicile -------------------------------------- Effective May 7, 2003, the Company changed its domicile from the State of Colorado to the State of Delaware. This change in its state of incorporation had been previously approved by a vote of the requisite number of holders of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock. On the effective date, the Company merged into W3 Group, Inc., a newly formed Delaware corporation for the purpose of changing its domicile to Delaware. There was no change in the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company as a result. The Certificate of Incorporation and By Laws of W3 Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, became the Certificate of Incorporation and By laws of the Company. As a result, the Company's total number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock was changed from 100,000,000 shares to 10,000,000 shares, and the number of authorized shares of Common Stock was changed from 500,000,000 shares to 40,000,000 shares. Also, the par value for both the Preferred Stock and Common Stock was changed from no par value to $.0001 par value per share. This change resulted in adjustments to the Company's unaudited Balance Sheet at June 30, 2003, consisting of an increase in the amount of $609 to Additional Paid-in Capital and a decrease in the amount of $539 to Common Stock, based on 5,392,084 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and a decrease in the amount of $70 to Preferred Stock, based on 699,060 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2003. 12 Item 2.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operation is based on our financial statements, which we prepare in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. These estimates and assumptions also require the application of certain accounting policies, many of which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events and their impact on amounts reported in our financial statements and related notes. We periodically review our accounting policies and estimates and make adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. 13 Results of Operations The Company did not have any revenue during the three month period ended September 30, 2003, or during the comparable period for the prior year, and has not had any revenue since the first quarter of 1999. The Company had no operating expenses for the three month period ended September 30, 2003, a decrease of $578 from the prior year period. The net loss for the three month period ended September 30, 2003 was $1,200 compared to a net loss of $1,778 for the comparable period in the prior year, a decrease of $578. The net loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2003 was $3,600, compared to a net loss of $56,167 for the prior year comparable period, resulting from a decrease in consulting expenses of $51,561, a decrease in depreciation expense of $239 and a decrease in transfer fees of $767. The Company had no cash at September 30, 2003 and at December 31, 2002. Accounts payable at September 30, 2003 totaled $248,999, a decrease of $45,000 from December 31, 2002, resulting from the payment of two creditors by the issuance of the Company's Common Stock. (See Financial Statements, "Note 3 - Capitalization.") The liability to Ameristar decreased $108,000 to $116,694 during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as a result of the issuance of the Company's Common Stock and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock in partial satisfaction of the Company's obligation to Ameristar (See Financial Statements, "Note 3- Capitalization" and "Note 6- Related Party Transactions"). On January 10, 2003, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 1,499,999 restricted shares (the "Shares") of Common Stock to two creditors of the Company in payment of their outstanding invoices for services. The Shares were issued at the agreed upon rate of $0.03 per share. On June 16, 2003, a Resolution was passed by the Board of Directors, which extended the conversion period of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock from July 14, 2003 until the close of business on October 14, 2003. On September 30, 2003, the Board of Directors passed a Resolution to extend the conversion period to January 14, 2004. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock may be converted to 0.5 (one half) share of Common Stock at the election of the shareholder. (See Financial Statements, "Note 3 - Capitalization.") The Company is still pursuing L'Abbigliamento, Ltd., the Company's former operating subsidiary, in regard to obtaining payments toward the loan, which was written off in 2001. (See Financial Statements, "Note 7 - Divestiture of Subsidiary and "Note 9 - Write Off of Bad Debt.") No assurance can be made regarding any such payments. The Company is continuing to look for suitable acquisition candidates. As of the date of this Report, no additional acquisition candidates have been found, and there is no assurance that any additional candidates will be found. 14 Present Overview W3 intends to acquire, finance, and restructure profitable companies that can utilize the internet to expand their business and distribution channel. As a result of the significant changes in the internet industry, the Company's focus is no longer on internet related companies. The Company is seeking to acquire companies that would become wholly owned, or majority owned, subsidiaries of W3. W3 intends to concentrate on existing companies that have proven markets, profitability, and management. The Company's goal is to provide a platform for selected companies to expand their markets, 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 objective is to better meet the needs of growing companies that may have had difficulty obtaining capital from traditional sources such as banks, large asset based lenders, and the public securities markets. Also, W3 believes that its opportunity is enhanced because of the consolidation in the commercial banking industry and the emphasis in investment banking toward increasingly larger financings. The resulting diminishing of available capital has affected the flow to smaller companies, where the need for capital is the most critical. 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. Liquidity and Capital Resources At September 30 2003, the Company had no cash. The Company has received an audit opinion, which includes a "going concern" risk, which raises substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. (See "Note 10 to Financial Statements). Management is re-evaluating business opportunities and looking for a new direction for the Company. General Risk Factors Affecting the Company Various factors could cause actual results of the Company to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements made from time to time in news releases, reports, proxy statements, registration statements and other written communications (including the preceding sections of this document), as well as oral statements made from time to time by representatives of the Company. Except for historical information, matters discussed in such oral and written communications are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to the following: . Rapidly changing business environment. . Intense competition within the market place. 15 . Many well established companies and smaller entrepreneurial companies have significant resources that will compete with the Company's limited resources in the acquisition of companies. . There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully in the acquisition of subsidiary companies. . The management of growth is expected to place significant pressure on the Company's managerial, operational, and financial resources. . The Company will not be able to accomplish its growth strategy if it is not able to consummate future acquisitions and raise capital. . The Company may not be able to operate as a going concern.
