INNOVATIVE DESIGNS, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

JANUARY 31, 2004 

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 û Basis of Preparation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (ôGAAPö) for interim financial information.  They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Note 2 û Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates net income (loss) per share as required by SFAS No. 128, ôEarnings per Share.ö  Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding.  During the periods presented common stock equivalents were not considered as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Note 3 û Going Concern

The CompanyÆs financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. 

The Company has experienced a significant loss from operations as a result of its investment necessary to achieve its operating plan, which is long-range in nature.  For the period ended January 31, 2004 the Company incurred a net loss of $129,284 and has a working capital surplus of $179,475 and a stockholdersÆ deficit of $463,004 at January 31, 2004.  In addition, the Company has no significant revenue generating operations.  

The CompanyÆs ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to attain profitable operations and secure financing.  In addition, the CompanyÆs ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses and complications frequently encountered by entrance into established markets and the competitive environment in which the Company operates.

The Company is pursuing equity financing for its operations.  Failure to secure such financing or to raise additional capital or borrow additional funds may result in the Company depleting its available funds and not being able to pay its obligations.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

-11-

 

Note 4 - Note Payable - Affiliate

On April 9, 2003 the Company converted $1,010,500 in advances and $67,081 of accrued interest into a convertible promissory note in the amount of $1,077,581.  The note bears interest at 8% per annum and is due on January 1, 2005.  The note may be converted into common shares of the Company as follow

a.        The unpaid principal in whole or in part together with accrued interest shall at the option of the holder be converted into the class of the Company's shares on the same terms and conditions applicable to any investors in a financing agreement.  The holder may elect to negotiate separate terms and conditions however the unpaid balance will not be payable in cash, but convertible only into shares of the Company.  For the purposes of this calculation the aggregate value of the Company's shares received by the holder in conversion shall be determined by subtracting $1,000,000 from the unpaid original principal balance of the note, which remains unpaid at the time of conversion.  A financing agreement is defined as the receipt by the Company of a least $1,500,000 of net cash proceeds from the sale of capital stock.

 

b.       The unpaid principal in whole or in part together with accrued interest shall be converted into shares if the Company realizes revenue of $1,500,000 during the period commencing April 9, 2003 and ending on December 31, 2004.  The price per share shall be determined as provided in c below.  The unpaid balance will not be payable in cash but convertible only into shares of the Company.  For the purposes of this calculation the aggregate value of the Company's shares received by the holder in conversion shall be determined by subtracting $1,000,000 from the unpaid original principal balance of the note, which remains unpaid at the time of conversion.

 

c.        If no financing agreement has occurred by December 31, 2004 and/or the Company has not realized the requirements of a and b above the holder may elect to convert the unpaid principal balance and accrued interest into the number of common shares of the Company determined by dividing the unpaid balance by the average bid price of the Company's common stock for the previous 30 trading days.  The unpaid balance will not be payable in cash but convertible only into shares of the Company.

ITEM 2.  PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Plan of Operations

The following discussion provides information that we believe is relevant to our Plan of Operations, and should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-QSB.á This discussion contains forward-looking statement based on our current expectations, assumptions, and estimates.á The words or phrases ôbelieve,ö ôexpect,ö ômay,ö ôanticipates,ö or similar expressions are intended to identify ôforward-looking statements.öá Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of risks and uncertainties pertaining to our business, including:á (a) Our limited operating history and our history of losses makes it difficult for you to evaluate our current and future business and prospects and future financial results; (b) If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will be unable to proceed with our Plan of Operations and even if we obtain additional debt or equity financing, your equity interest in our stock will be diluted; (c) If RMF Global, Inc. violates the terms of its agreement with Ko-Myung Kim or we violate our agreement with RMF Global, Inc., we may have no eliotex by which to manufacture our products andá we will have to terminate our business, and you will lose your entire investment; (d) If our products are found to cause injury, have defects, or fail to meet industry standards, we will incur substantial litigation, judgment, product liability, and product recall costs, which will increase our losses and negatively affect our band name reputation and product sales; (e) Because we offer only six products and our competitors have a variety of products, we may not obtain consumer acceptance of our products, which may adversely affect our ability to generate revenues; (f) We have not established the Innovative Design brand name or the ôidigearö label, and eliotex has little, if any, name recognition,

 

-12-


which may prevent us from generating revenues and reduce the value of your investment; (g) we do not have written agreements with certain companies and persons providing us with services and instead receive such services on a per project basis; and (h) other risk factors discussed in our From SB-2 Registration Statement which is available for review at www.sec.gov.á The terms ôwe,ö ôour,ö or ôusö are used in this discussion refer to Innovative Designs, Inc.á Statements made herein are as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-QSB with the Securities and Exchange Commission and should not be relied upon as of any subsequent date.á Unless otherwise required by applicable law, we do not undertake, and we specifically disclaim any obligation, to update any forward-looking statements to reflect occurrences, developments, unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statement.

 

We cannot continue to satisfy our current cash requirements for a period of twelve (12) months through our existing capital.á We anticipate total estimated capital expenditures of approximately per month of an aggregate of over the next twelve (12) months, in the following areas:

 

o        Hire approximately 2 additional consultants and 2 employees;

o        Update and develop our web site and develop our online marketing campaign;

o        Contract with manufacturer representatives to sell our online marketing campaign;

o        Design and develop literature, displays, and media and advertising materials;

o        Develop and maintain public relations campaigns;

o        Develop trade show booths;

o        Attend trade shows;

o        Develop and initiate online marketing campaign;

o        Establish relationships with retail chain outlets and mass merchandisers; and

o        Warehouse lease payments.

Accordingly, we will be unable to fund our expenses for our entire one year plan of operations through our existing assets or cash.á Our Chief Executive Officer and President have each verbally agreed to loan us up to $400,000 for our operational needs which will be sufficient to meet our Plan of Operations or Alternative Plans of Operation.á We may still need additional financing through traditional bank financing or a debt or equity offering; however, because we are a development stage company with no operating such financing or the amount of the financing may be minimal and therefore inadequate to implement our Plan of Operations.á In addition, if we only have nominal funds by which to conduct our operations, we may have to curtail advertising or be unable to conduct any advertising, both of which will negatively impact development of our brand name and reputation.á In the event that we do not receive financing or our financing is inadequate, we may have to liquidate our business and undertake any or all of the following actions:

Sell or dispose of our assets, if any;

Pay our liabilities in order of priority, if we have available cash to pay such liabilities;

If any cash remains after we satisfy amounts due to our creditors, distribute any remaining cash to our shareholders in an amount equal to the net market value of our net assets;

File a Certificate of Dissolution with the State of Delaware to dissolve our corporation and close our business;

Make the appropriate filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission so that we will no longer be required to file periodic and other required reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, if, in fact, we are reporting company at that time; and

Make the appropriate filings with the National Association of Security Dealers to affect a delisting of our stock.

Based upon our current assets, however, we will not have the ability to distribute any cash to our shareholders.

If we have any liabilities that we, or our President and/or Chief Executive Officer on our behalf, are unable to satisfy and we qualify for protection under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, we may voluntarily file for reorganization under Chapter 11 or liquidation under Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 or liquidation under Chapter 7.á Our creditors may also file

-13-


a Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 bankruptcy action against us.á If our creditors or we file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 11bankruptcy, our creditors will take priority over our shareholders.á If we fail to file for bankruptcy under Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 and we have creditors; such creditors may institute proceedings against us seeking forfeiture of our assets, if any.

We do not know and cannot determine which, if any, of these actions we will be forced to take.á If any of these foregoing events occur, you could lose your entire investment in our shares.

Our Plan of Operations to Date:

We have accomplished the following in our Plan of Operations from our inception of June 2002 to date:

 

Reviewing Professional Marketing Organizations:

From June 2002 to December 2002, our Chief Executive Officer, Joseph Riccelli, interviewed and considered approximately 10 professional marketing organizations for marketing, sales distribution, produce endorsements and promotion of our products.á In October 2002, MCM Communications, Inc., a marketing and advertising firm located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, informed us that it would provide us with marketing and advertising services.á To date, this firm has developed and designed our initial web site, product literature, and the graphic design of ôPoint of Saleö displays.

 

Completion of Design, Prototype and Testing Phase of New Products:

In November 2002, we completed the design, prototype, and testing phase of our windshirts and our jackets.á In January 2003, we completed the design and testing phase of our ball caps.á We assumed no direct material costs associated with the testing, prototype, and testing of these products because:á (a) we did not utilize the services of any outside consultant or company for these purposes; (b) although we used the services of our Vice President of Sales and Marketing and Chief Executive Officer for these purposes, their efforts were part of their normal responsibilities; (c) prior to the time we had undertaken the design and prototype of these products, we had purchased for less than $1000; and (d) the testing of these products was performed in-house and were conducted by our Vice President of Sales and Marketing and Chief Executive Officer as part of their normal responsibilities.á The design, prototype, and testing of the Swimmeez, sleeping bag and stadium pillow products in which we had obtained an exclusive license to sell such products from our affiliated entity, RMF Global, had been completed by RMF Global.

 

Leased Warehousing Space:

In October, 2002, we arranged for the lease of warehouse space for our inventory, eliotex, and other raw materials storage at 124 Cherry Street, Etna, Pennsylvania from Frank Riccelli, our President/Director.á The warehouse space is being utilized for the following:á (a) inventory/raw material storage, (b) sales offices, (c) conference/presentation room, (d) sample/source area, (e) distribution center, and (f) an aquatic area that tests our products.

 

Website Development, Point of Sale Display, Website Design and Advertising/Product Literature Layout:

In October 2002, we obtained the services on a per project basis of a website marketing consultant, BA Web Productions, located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to assist with marketing and developing our website, which has included adding new product selections, a product page, and links.á Our website became operational on November 10, 2002.

In October 2002, we retained the services on a per project basis of MCM Communications, Inc. located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to provide us with marketing and advertising services, including creating our point of sale display, text for website, product information, and marketing literature, all of which have been completed.

Retailers:

In November 2002, the website retailer, Woodlandsoutdoorworld.com, began ordering our sleeping bag and wind shirt products on a wholesale basis for their retail sale.á In addition, Woodlands Outdoor World, a retail store, located in Farmington, Pennsylvania, began carrying our sleeping bag product and our wind shirt products and

 

-14-


Nemacolin Woodlands Resort and SpaÆs retail store located in Farmington, Pennsylvania began carrying our wind shirt product in its retail store.

 

In June 2003, the following retail stores began carrying our ôSwimeezö products:

o        Pool Nation located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania;

o        B & R Pools located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania;

o        Knabes Swim Shop located in Monroeville, Pennsylvania; and

o        Ross and Sons Pools located in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania.

In June 2003, the Pittsburgh Shop located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania began carrying our windshirts and hats.

Contract with Manufacturer Representative Group:

In November of 2002, we entered into a verbal agreement with a manufacturer representative group, Havel-Giarusso and Associates, located in Big Lake, Minnesota to sell our products to outdoor retail chains.á This manufacturer representative group has relationships with outdoor retailers located in various states.

 

Additional Hiring:

From March 2003 to May 2003, we hired our Vice Presidents, Joseph A. Riccelli, Jr. and Michelle Griffith, on a full time, salaried position basis.á From March 2003 to present, we hired two part time employees for clerical and warehouse duties at the rate of $7.00 per hour.

 

Letter Agreement with Victory Junction Gang Camp:

On March 6, 2003, we agreed to partner with Victory Junction Gang Camp in a cause related marketing alliance, and have added the Victory Junction Gang Camp logo and Internet link to our web site.

 

Services of First Impression Printing:

In April of 2003, we hired First Impression Printing in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on a one time project basis to design and print our product catalogue, sleeping bag Point of Sale posters and mailing labels.á The project was completed on April 22, 2003.á The total cost for these marketing and advertising materials was $7,309.17.

 

Services of Professional Trade Show Marketing Agency/Promoter:

On June 12, 2003, we arranged for Discovery Marketing Associates, Inc. to represent us and our products at the 2003 Mid-Atlantic Market Week Showcase Rent A Rep from July 7 to July 11, 2003.á Discovery Marketing Associates has indicated that it will represent us at future trade shows on a per project invoice basis.

 

Manufacturers Agreement:

On June 16, 2003, we completed an agreement with Haas Outdoors, Inc. located in West Point, Mississippi, which grants a non-exclusive license in North America to manufacture or sell products or to have manufactured, and to sell Haas Outdoors licensed products.á In conjunction with the rights conferred to us in this agreement, we plan to use Haas Outdoors Mossy Oak fabric on the outside portion of our Stadium Pillow products using the trademarked and registered ôMossy Oakö pattern and ôMossy Oakö hang tags.

 

Packaging Design and Manufacture:

During September 2003, we arranged with Packaging Specialists, Inc., a box manufacturing firm located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to design and manufacture the boxes for all of our products.á On October 1, 2003, Packaging Specialists provided us with 2400 boxes for our various products.

 

Hired Marketing Employee on an Hourly Basis:

On October 13, 2003, we hired Gina Leone to draft brand and advertising related marketing materials. Ms. Leone is compensated on an hourly basis for approximately 20 hours per week.

 

-15-

Our Future Plan of Operations: 

Our Plan of Operations over the next twelve (12) months, from February 2004 to February 2005, will consist of the following:

 

Hire In House Employees for Shipping, Receiving, Customer Service, Data Entry and Invoicing. 

We plan to hire up to 3 part time and 3 full time employees which we plan to compensate on an hourly basis to perform shipping, receiving, customer service, data entry and invoicing services; however, the number of employees that we hire will be dependent upon the number of product orders we receive.á Initially, we plan to hire 2 part time employees, one of which will be responsible for our shipping and receiving and another which will be responsible for customer service, data entry and invoicing.á We will pay these hourly employees $7 per hour.á On March 10, 2003 we hired two part time employees at the rate of $7.00 per hour to assist with warehouse and clerical duties.

 

February 2004 û September 2004

Increase the Utility of our Web Site

We intend to continually improve the utility and design of our website.á We have added the following features since March 1, 2003:

 

o        Simple navigational menu;

o        Testimonials and third party product reviews, including a customer testimonial for our sleeping bag;

o        Product information and pictures/graphics;

o        Wholesaler only area disclosing confidential price list; and

o        Links to pertinent/affiliated websites, including a link to the Victory Junction Gang CampÆs website.

 

We estimate that the cost of the web site layout modification and continuing development will be $20,000, including approximately $75.00 per month for web site hosting and payment provider fees.

 

February 2003 û September 2004

Develop and Initiate Online Marketing Campaign

We will utilize marketing professionals to focus on increasing our website page rank, which is the numerical location or position of our web site among search engine results.á BA Web Productions updates, expands, and develops our web site.á This ongoing campaign will start with search engine optimization strategies, and continue with banner advertisements and reciprocal linking campaigns with established web sites with complementary or relevant products and/or services to the companyÆs products.

 

Our online marketing campaigns will entail the following:

o        Reciprocal linking with well-established websites with related content and/or complementary products;

o        Issuance of press releases about our products to targeted on-line publications; and

o        Strategic placement of banner advertisements on websites. 

 

The estimated cost of this online marketing campaign is $500 per month or $6,000 per year, including travel expenses and lodging, business lunches/dinners, and telephone charges.

 

To date, we have not accomplished anything regarding this step in our Plan of Operations due to insufficient cash resources.

 

February 2004 û March 2004

Hire Sales People

From January 2004 through March 2004, we will advertise in trade journals to recruit sales representatives.á Our Chief Executive Officer and Vice President of Sales and Marketing will conduct the pre-qualification and personal interviews of candidates.á In addition, we may utilize placement agencies for assistance in fulfilling our personnel needs. The estimated cost for the classified advertisements and/or placement agency fees is $1,200.á We originally planned to hire 3 sales representatives at a base starting salary of $30,000 with no commission by July 2003;

however, because we have been utilizing manufacturers representatives affiliated with Havel-Giarosso and Associates since July 2003 to a greater extent than originally anticipated, and their representatives are compensated on a commission basis only, we have chosen to delay the salary expenditures associated with hiring 3 sales representatives until January 2004.á These sales representatives will market our products to and service retail chain stores, facilitate trade shows, initiate and nurture relationships with relevant local and national organizations, and provide support to manufacturer representatives of our products.

 

In March 2003, we entered into a verbal agreement and hired one independent representative:á Mr. George Douglas, of Concord, North Carolina.á Mr. Douglas is an independent contractor whose compensation is 10% of any Purchase Orders he receives for our products.

 

February û August 2004

Initially Contract with five (5) Manufacturer Representatives 

Our Vice President of Sales and Marketing will interview and contact additional established apparel representatives from manufacturer representative organizations.á Compensation to these manufacture representatives will be on a commission basis only.á We do not anticipate any expenses associated with this activity.

 

February 2003 û August 2004

Design and Development of Literature, Displays, and Media Materials:

We will develop literature, point-of-sale and media materials in our attempt to integrate our products into large retail store outlets.á We will utilize marketing consultants to develop and implement professional photography and graphics, brochures, point-of-sale displays, mailers and literature, which we plan to use as a trade show exhibits, and sales tools for our sales representatives.á We estimate that our total expenditure in this area will be $60,000.

 

February 2004 û June 2004

Develop and Initiate Print Advertising:

Throughout our Plan of Operations and as a congruent part of our overall marketing strategy, we intend to initiate our targeted print advertising campaign in specific newspapers, magazines, and trade journals.á We plan on beginning an advertising campaign with ôTeaser Ads,ö advertisements stating product and company information but not specific ads on one particular product, in outdoor publications and magazines along with trade show brochures.á Additionally we will utilize ad space in chain store news and inserted flyers.á We will utilize marketing/advertising agencies to assist in the design, development, printing, and distribution of these advertising campaigns, along with our Chief Executive Officer and Vice President of Sales and Marketing.á The total estimated cost for our print advertisements is $30,000.

 

To date, we have not placed any print advertisements due to our lack of cash resources to do so.

 

February 2004 û September 2004

Develop and Maintain Public Relations Campaigns:

Starting in January 2004 and continuing throughout our Plan of Operations, we intend to utilize marketing consultants to develop advertisements and press releases for apparel and outdoor gear magazines and trade journals.á The press releases and advertisements will discuss issues such as company status, product innovations, and other notable events and developments.á The estimated cost is $3,000 for consultant services, advertisements, press release submission via PR Newswire, software and administrative expenses.

 

February 2003 û September 2004

Establish Wholesale Relationships with Retail Chain Outlets and Mass Merchandisers to Carry Our Products and Product Promotion:

We plan to develop wholesale relationships or distribution points for our products.á Throughout our Plan of Operations, we plan to implement sales campaigns to established retailers with the goal of establishing wholesale relationships.á Our Chief Executive Officer and Vice President of Sales and Marketing will initiate these campaigns.á Our sales campaigns will be on ongoing process and will consist of our sales representatives accomplishing the following:

 

-17-


 

o        Lead Generation û Accomplished through cold calling, follow-up contacts from tradeshows and mailers, and networking with outdoor gear and apparel industry associations;

o        Personal Presentations to Executives and Purchasing Departments of Targeted Retailers û Through these sales presentations, we will attempt to convince the retailer to purchase our products at wholesale prices for resale in their store or chain of stores.á The orientation of the presentation will be an introduction of the innovative aspects of our products, as well as the advantages of our products over some of our competitors.á For example, we will highlight the light weight, compactness, thermal insulation, and buoyancy features of eliotex used in our products.á These personal presentations of our products will be on-location at prospectsÆ facilities to executives and purchasing departments and will include a product display and a video demonstration of the products in use;

o        Order Acquisition and Management û Once the retailer places an order for products, the sales representative is responsible for managing the order fulfillment process, forwarding the purchase order to the distribution manage who will then arrange the shipping specifics, as well as coordinating the physical merchandising of our products on the shelves of the client stores.á By maintaining this hands-on approach, we will attempt to continue successful relationships with our distributors; and 

o        Relationship Management û The sales representative is also responsible for maintaining on ongoing relationship with acquired distributors.á Our Vice President of Sales and Marketing will enforce a regimented account management program.á This program is to include monthly telephone contacts, and personal visits, once per six months minimum, with the distributor.

 

To date, we have not accomplished any aspect of this part of our Plan or Operations.

 

February 2004 to September 2004

Sub Manufacturing, Raw Materials Procurement and Fulfillment Process:

We will conduct our sub-manufacturing, raw materials procurement and fulfillment Process as follows:

Manufacturing

Swimeez Products

Our completed Swimeez swim suit products are sub-manufactured by R& M Apparel located in Gallitzen, Pennsylvania.

 

Sleeping Bag Products

Our completed sleeping bag products are sub-manufactured by Equinox located in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.

 

Stadium Pillow, Ballcap, and Jacket Products:

Our completed Stadium Pillow, ball cap, and jacket products are sub-manufactured by PT.á Lidya & Natalia located in Sidoarjo, Indonesia.á Because the predominant function of the Stadium Pillows is a sleeping bag, they are imported as sleeping bags.á Indonesia does not impose quotas that limit the time period or quantity of items which can be imported.á The United States Customs Service imposes a 9% importation duty for Indonesia based goods imported into the United States.

 

Windshirts

Our completed wind shirt products are sub-manufactured by CMT Contractors located in Butler, Pennsylvania.

 

We have no verbal or written agreements or long term agreements with any of our sub-manufacturers, and we do not plan to obtain such agreements.á Our sub-manufacturers manufacture our products on a per order basis.

 

 

February 2004 to September 2004

Product Design and Development

We plan to expand our sleeping bag and floating swimwear products and research and develop other apparel and accessory items containing ôeliotexö.á We plan to continually evaluate trends, monitor the needs and desires of consumers by conducting customer purchase follow-up, ongoing market research, and maintaining open channels of communication with our distributor retailers and manufacturer representatives.á We plan to consult with our sub-manufacturers and raw material suppliers regarding the development and use of new materials and the enhancement of our product designs.á In addition, we will continually evaluate our product lines for proper positioning in the marketplace, by:

 

o        Consulting with experts in the textiles and design engineering; and

o        Consulting with third-party apparel designers and outdoor equipment experts.

 

The steps involved in our prospective design and development are:

 

o        Product conception and design by our Chief Executive Officer, Vice Presidents, and/or third party designers;

o        Patterns made from design concept;

o        Pattern cut and distributed to contracted sub-manufacturer;

o        Sample manufactured û The manufacturer constructs one or a few of the sample garments by combining and sewing the appropriate materials as specified in the design presentation;

o        Sample testing û We plan to forward the sample garment to Vartest Laboratories, Inc. for testing regarding weight, water repellency, and thermal insulation properties or other aspects depending on the type of product being tested and product functions.á In addition, our Officers and Directors will be asked to use the prototype products to provide feedback to the designer of the product and possible product improvements; and

o        Final manufacturing plans submitted to manufacturer for production sample.

 

Based on previous product development experience, we expect that our product development cycle, from initial design to product introduction will take three to twelve months, depending upon the complexity of the design and

 

-20-


associated testing.á Based on our previously established relationships with garment manufacturers, we estimate new product design and development costs at roughly $5,000 per new item.á We estimate that we will develop no more than two new products during our Plan of Operations from February 2004 to September 2004.á We have not yet designed or commenced development of any new products.

 

Although we are not currently developing products that will contain eliotex for use in the military and airline industries, we may do so in the future.á Because eliotex has insulation and water repellent properties, it potentially has widespread application to products that may be used by the military and airline industries, such as additional sleeping bag products or flotation devices.á We anticipate that we will not begin to develop such products until we have effectively penetrated the sporting goods market or established sufficient market share that enables us to allocate resources for this type of industry specific application development and material testing procedures, which we do not anticipate until we complete our Plan of Operations over the next 12 months as detailed above.

 

Our Plan of Operations is dependent upon our ability to generate revenues to fund our operations; however, our revenues may be insufficient to provide adequate funding.á If our revenues are insufficient, Joseph Riccelli, our Chief Executive Officer, and Frank Riccelli, our President, have verbally agreed to loan us sufficient funds to meet our Plan of Operations or Alternative Plans of Operation.á Messrs. Joseph and Frank Riccelli have further verbally agreed to loan us sufficient funds at no interest, with no specified term for the repayment of the loan. áWe may seek financing through traditional bank financing.á However, because we are a development stage company with a poor financial condition, financial institutions may no provide us with financing, in which case we may have to curtail or cease our operations and you may lose your entire investment.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources January 31, 2004

Cash at January 31, 2004 amounted to $27,725.á We have experienced significant losses from our operations.á Our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon our ability to attain profitable operations and secure financing.á Although we are pursuing financing to expand our operations, there are no assurances that we will be successful in obtaining such financing.á Our failure to secure financing or expand our operations may result in our not being able to continue as a going concern.á For the period ended January 31, 2004, we incurred a net loss of $129,284 and a net loss of $3,105,514 since inception.á The net loss since inception includes (1) losses on transactions in which Company common stock was issued in exchange for services and (2) interest accrued on the note payable to RMF Global.á The net loss since inception attributable to the stock for services transactions amounts to $2,427,625 and the net loss since inception attributable to the interest on the note amounts to $233,105.

 

ITEM 3.á CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

As of January 31, 2004, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.á Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of January 31, 2004.

 

There have been no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended January 31, 2004, or subsequent to January 31, 2004, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
