August 31, 2003
NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
[1] The Company:
On October 28, 1997, LCS Golf, Inc. (the "Company"), an inactive New
York corporation, was merged in a reverse merger transaction into an
inactive Delaware corporation with the same name ("LCS Delaware") in
exchange for 980,904 shares of LCS Delaware's common stock. The Company
paid $50,000 as a finder's fee in connection with the merger which was
charged to expense. In addition, 3,916,360 shares with a value of
$25,000 were issued to certain existing shareholders of the Company for
services rendered in connection with the merger. For financial
accounting purposes, the merger on October 28, 1997 has been treated as
the acquisition of LCS Delaware by the Company in the form of a
recapitalization. Therefore, no value has been ascribed to the common
stock held by the LCS Delaware shareholders.
The Company was formed under the laws of the State of New York on March
8, 1994. On October 26, 1994, the Company commenced business operations
with the purchase of substantially all of the assets and the assumption
of specific liabilities of Bert Dargie Golf, Inc., a Tennessee
corporation engaged in the business of designing, assembling and
marketing golf clubs and related accessories.
In August 1996, the Company conveyed, assigned, transferred and
delivered substantially all of its business assets to Dargie Golf Co.
(the "Purchaser") in exchange for the: i) cancellation of the remaining
debt owed to the Purchaser arising from the October 26, 1994 purchase,
ii) sale by Herbert A. Dargie III of his 5 percent ownership interest
in the Company to the Company and, iii) the assumption of certain
liabilities of the Company by the Purchaser.
The Company was engaged in the acquisition and operation of companies
which provided products and services to the golf playing public and
marketed the database information obtained from its websites. These
products and services included discounted green fees and other
services, and a golf website (http://www.golfuniverse.com) which
provided various golf-related hyperlinks to other golf websites and
golf course previews.
The Company formerly designed and manufactured consumer products, but
ceased its manufacturing operations in November of 1999. It does not
intend to renew its operations.
During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2003, the Company had lost
its websites and domain names, and its database had become obsolete.
Some of these websites and domain names are being used by a company
owned by the Company's Chief Operating Officer. It is unlikely that the
Company will be able to recover any of these websites and/or domain
names and the Company may not be able to adequately update its
database. The Company does not intend to resume its prior activities.
The Company generated minimal revenues in fiscal 2003 and currently has
no revenue generating operations.
[2] Principles of consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LCS
GROUP, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
[3] Basis of presentation:
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
August 31, 2003
NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(CONTINUED)
[3] Basis of presentation: (continued)
Through August 31, 2003, the Company has not generated revenues from
its operations to cover its costs and operating expenses and has
incurred significant recurring losses. In addition, the Company has a
significant working capital deficiency and a capital deficit. Although
the Company has been able to issue its common stock for a significant
portion of its expenses and has had to rely on loans from its major
stockholder/president and others, it is not known whether the Company
will be able to continue this practice. It is also not known if the
Company will be able to meet its operating expense requirements.
These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern. If the Company is not able to raise
sufficient additional capital or debt financing, the Company will be
forced to cease operations. In addition, the Company is investigating
potential merger candidates that have or may be able to generate
additional capital or obtain debt financing. No assurances can be given
to the success of these plans. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these
uncertainties.
During the six months ended August 31, 2003, the Company issued
$261,987 of non-interest bearing convertible promissory notes payable
on demand and convertible at $0.03 per share (See Note E).
Certain accounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes.
[4] Interim Financial Data
Those condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by
the Company, without audit by independent public accountants, pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying
condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal
recurring adjustments necessary for the information presented not to be
misleading. Certain information and note disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been
condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to such rules and
regulations and, accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements included in the Company's fiscal year 2003 Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB. Operating results for the three and six months
ended August 31, 2003 and 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the full year or any other period.
There have been no significant changes in the accounting policies of
the Company. There were no significant changes in the Company's
commitments and contingencies as previously described in the fiscal
year 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.
[5] Deferred income taxes:
Deferred income taxes are reported using the asset and liability
method. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary
differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences
between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax
bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when,
in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some
portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of
changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(CONTINUED)
[6] Loss per share:
Loss per share has been computed by dividing the net loss by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding, including shares
with respect to liabilities to be paid with common stock, during each
period. The effect of outstanding potential common shares, including
stock options, warrants and convertible debt is not included in the per
share calculations as it would be anti-dilutive.
[7] Use of estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets, which are subject to impairment considerations,
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

NOTE B - DEBT IN DEFAULT
On February 16, 2000, the Company borrowed from Traffix, Inc. (formerly Quintel
Communications, Inc.) ("Traffix"), an internet marketing and development
company, $500,000 in the form of a convertible promissory note ("Note"). The
Note was due on demand at any time after August 16, 2000 and is convertible into
500,000 shares of common stock of the Company at any time prior to repayment.
Any shares issued by the Company will have registration and piggyback
registration rights and are subject to anti-dilution adjustments in certain
cases. If any additional shares are issued under the anti-dilution provisions,
the Company will have a one-time repurchase right at a $1.00 per share during
the twelve-month period following the date of conversion of the Note. The Note
was without interest until the earlier of August 17, 2000 or an event of default
under the Note. Interest is being charged at prime plus 4%, not to exceed 14%.
The Note may be prepaid at anytime after giving 15 days prior written notice.
The Note is collateralized by the Company's database and all related records,
contract rights and intangibles which has been delivered to the lender and must
be updated upon request, until the obligation has been paid.
The Company entered into a ten-year licensing agreement with Traffix for the use
of its database for a monthly payment of $5,000 which can be used to offset the
remaining balance owed to Traffix. During the quarter and six months ended
August 31, 2003, no such payments were made.
On the same date, the Company also entered into a two-year marketing agreement
with Traffix to develop programs to market products and services and send
promotional e-mails to the visitors and customers of the Company's websites.
Traffix is to pay the Company $.25 for each individual who "opts in" to be
registered with Traffix at its site. Revenues generated from these programs
(less direct "out-of-pocket" costs, including royalties, cost of producing the
marketing materials and other expense directly related to the programs) is to be
divided equally and distributed quarterly less any required reserves. There have
been no revenues recognized from these programs.
LCS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
August 31, 2003
NOTE B - DEBT IN DEFAULT (CONTINUED)
In connection with the marketing agreement, the Company issued two-year options
to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.00 a share and
100,000 shares at $2.00 per share. The value of these options at grant date,
utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, was $139,000. The assumptions
used in determining the value was an expected volatility of 155%, an average
interest rate of 6.68% per annum and an expected holding period of two years.
The estimated value of these options was expensed in the year ended February 28,
2001. These options are subject to certain anti-dilution provisions and provide
registration rights for the underlying shares. The agreement can be terminated
in the event of a default under the agreement by either party which is not
corrected within 30 days after notice is given.
On August 8, 2000, following certain disagreements concerning Traffix's use of
the Company's database, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement and
amended the security agreement with Traffix. The Company made a $50,000 payment
against the $500,000 convertible note which was funded personally by its major
stockholder/president. The Note was amended to provide for payment on demand.
The amended security agreement requires the Company to remit to Traffix, 50% of
collections on the outstanding accounts receivable as of August 10, 2000 and 25%
of all subsequent accounts receivable collected, within five days. Payments are
to be credited, first to interest and then to principal. Traffix is also to
receive 50% of all other cash receipts, including additional loans, until the
Note is paid. The amended security agreement also includes all accounts of the
Company and all security, or guarantees held with respect to the accounts and
all account proceeds. In addition, the Company's major stockholder/president
personally guaranteed up to $250,000 of the Note of which $160,000, (including
the two payments of $50,000 each discussed below) has been paid against this
guaranty.
Due to the above amendment, Traffix agreed not to demand payment on the Note or
commence any action against the Company, as long as it receives payments for
interest and principal of at least $10,000 per month or collection of the
Company's accounts receivable or money from the guarantor, the Company's major
stockholder/president, and the Company generates gross revenues of at least
$75,000 per month.
On August 8, 2000, the Company received $300,000 from American Warrant Partners,
LLC ("AWP") evidenced by an 8% convertible subordinated promissory note (see
below). The Company did not remit 50% of the cash proceeds of this note, as
required by the Forbearance Agreement, which put the Company into default under
its agreement with Traffix. The Company has not obtained a waiver of the
default, however, the major stockholder/president personally made two payments
of $50,000 each towards the principal and interest on the Traffix Note. The
Company recorded these payments as a loan from its stockholder/president. In
addition, the Company agreed to remit 50% (formerly 25%) of cash received from
new accounts receivable.
On May 16, 2001, the Company entered into an agreement Traffix, Inc. which
amended the aforementioned Forbearance Agreement dated August 8, 2000. The
Company agreed to pay $10,000 on signing. Upon the closing of the AWP financing
(see Note G), Traffix was to be paid an additional $10,000. Commencing on June
1, 2001, the Company agreed to a payment schedule of a minimum of $10,000 per
month. Since May 16, 2001 the Company has not made all of the required $10,000
monthly payments to Traffix, as called for by the amended Forebearance
Agreement. As a result, as of August 31, 2002, the Company is in default of
its amended Forbearance Agreement with Traffix.

NOTE C - DEBT NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH TERMS
[1] On August 8, 2000, AWP loaned the Company $300,000 evidenced by 8%
convertible subordinated promissory note with a maturity date of August
8, 2002. The note is convertible, at the option of AWP, into common
stock at $.25 per share (market price of $.4375 per share), subject to
adjustment which resulted in a discount of the note of approximately
$201,000. This discount was immediately recognized as interest expense
due to the ability of AWP to convert the note at any time. Interest is
payable quarterly commencing on September 30, 2000. The Company also
issued a five-year warrant expiring on August 8, 2005 to purchase
600,000 shares of common stock, exercisable at $.40 per share, subject
to adjustment, to be exercised in whole or in part. The value of this
warrant at grant date, utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model, was approximately $260,000. The assumptions used in determining
the value was an expected volatility of 227%, an average interest rate
of 6.06% per annum and an expected holding period of five years. The
allocated value of the warrant is $99,000. This amount is to be
amortized over the life of the two-year note, or shorter if exercised
earlier. Based upon the values ascribed to the convertibility feature
of the note and the warrant, the Company has recorded additional
interest expense of approximately $228,000 during the year ended
February 28, 2001. The Company also entered into a registration rights
agreement whereby a Registration Statement for the shares is to be
filed as soon as reasonably practicable but not later than September
15, 2000. The Company did not file the Registration Statement by
September 15, 2000 and since a Registration Statement was not declared
effective by November 15, 2000, the terms of the agreement are that for
each 30-day period that the Registration Statement is not declared
effective, the conversion price of $0.25 of the convertible note and
the warrant exercise price of $0.40 will each be reduced by 2% per
30-day period, until the exercise price reaches $0.05. Pursuant to this
provision, at Feburary 28, 2002, the reduced conversion price and the
exercise prices were each $0.04 respectively. In addition, the interest
rate on the convertible note will increase 2% for each 30-day period,
not to exceed 15%. Pursuant to this provision, the Company has recorded
interest expense of $2,000 and $8,000 for the three and six momths
ended August 31, 2002, respectively. As of August 31, 2002, the
interest rate was 15%. Certain officers and directors agreed to a
lock-up agreement restricting their right to sell, transfer, pledge or
hypothecate or otherwise encumber their shares until the earlier of 1)
the one year anniversary of the agreement, 2) the effective date of the
Registration Statement or 3) until the Company raises $1,000,000 in
equity or debt financing. The Company agreed to recommend and use its
best efforts to elect a representative of AWP to the Board of Directors
until one year from the date of the agreement or until the Company
raises $1,000,000 in equity or debt financing.
On May 16, 2001, the Company entered into an amendment, waiver and
consent relating to the 8% convertible subordinated promissory note,
warrant, and registration rights agreement revising the conversion
price of the promissory note and the exercise price of the warrant to
the lower of $0.12 or 80% of the current market price on the date
immediately preceding the date of the exercise or conversion. The
Company is required to register the underlying common stock in a
registration statement to be filed in connection with a proposed new
investment no later than 60 days from June 15, 2001, in consideration
for which, AWP has agreed to waive any penalty provisions with respect
to the filing of the registration statement and consent to the issuance
of common stock below the then applicable conversion or exercise price
of the promissory note and warrant relating to the financing received
on May 24, 2001.

August 31, 2003
NOTE C - DEBT NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH TERMS (CONTINUED)
[1] (continued)
Pursuant to this amendment of the Conversion and Exercise price, the
Company recorded a charge of approximately $239,000 during the quarter
ended May 31, 2001, which represents the beneficial conversion feature
resulting from the difference between the fair market value of the
shares at the effective date of the amendment and the effective
conversion rate of the note.
[2] On May 24, 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with Private
Capital Group, LLC ("PCG") (an entity related to AWP) for the sale of
$200,000 of 8% convertible debentures with Private Capital Group, LLC
("PCG") ( an entity related to American Warrant Partners) which can be
converted at any time by the holder or will automatically convert into
common stock in five years, at the lower of $0.12 per share or 80% of
the market price as defined. The $200,000 Note has been personally
guaranteed by the Company's major stockholder/president with 750,000 of
his shares of the Company's stock being held in escrow. The Company
also agreed to file a registration statement for the shares but no
later than sixty calendar days from June 15, 2001. The Company did not
file the registration statement within the sixty-day period. The
lenders waived this noncompliance. At February 28, 2002, the Company
had received $175,000 of proceeds from this note. The Company has
recorded a charge of $175,000 for the year ended February 28, 2002. The
charge represents the beneficial conversion feature resulting from the
differences between the fair market value of the shares at the date of
issuance of the debt and the effective conversion rate for the
convertible debentures.
On January 31, 2002, the Company was notified that it was in default of its
convertible debentures agreements with Private Capital Group, LLC ("PCG") and
its 8% convertible subordinated promissory note to American Warrant.
As of January 31, 2002 the Company had not filed its quarterly report on Form
10-QSB for the period ending November 30, 2001 within the time required pursuant
to Rule 13a-13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. PCG considered this to be
an event of default as defined in the debenture agreement and demanded that the
Company cure this default within thirty business days in accordance with the
debenture agreement. The Company believed that it cured this default with the
filing of this Form 10-QSB for the period ending November 30, 2001 on February
11, 2002.
The Company has not paid the interest due on the promissory note, which American
Warrant considers this to be an event of default under the note. This default
was not cured within twenty calendar days therefore, the principal and accrued
interest are payable immediately.
On June 28, 2002, the Company entered into an Agreement and Release with AWP and
PCG, the holders of the Company's 8% convertible promissory notes. The Agreement
and Release addresses the Company's noncompliance with the terms of the 8%
convertible promissory notes.
LCS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
August 31, 2003
NOTE C - DEBT NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH TERMS (CONTINUED)
Pursuant to the Agreement and Release, AWP and PCG in the aggregate converted
$200,000 of the 8% convertible promissory notes at a price of $0.04 per share,
as adjusted, for an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
Should the price of the Company's stock not reach and remain at $0.50 per share
for a minimum period of thirty trading days within 120 days of a merger with an
operating company, at an average volume of 150,000 shares per day, then the
Company will issue a total of an additional 6,000,000 shares of its common stock
to AWP and PCG. Since a merger with an operating company did not occur within
thirty days of the aforementioned agreement and release, AWP and PCG have the
option to receive immediate repayment of their notes or to receive the
additional 6,000,000 shares of common stock. On November 26, 2002, the Company
issued the aforementioned 6,000,000 shares of common stock to AWP and PCG.
Also pursuant to the Agreement and Release described above, AWP exercised the
warrants that were issued in conjunction with the 8% convertible promissory
notes. These warrants were exercised on a cashless basis into 512,951 shares of
the Company's common stock.
The 800,000 shares that had been held in escrow as security for the promissory
notes were released and returned to the Company's president and chief executive
officer.

NOTE D - Bridge Note
On May 28, 2002, the Company entered into a loan agreement with a third
party for $75,000. In conjunction with this loan the Company also
granted the third party 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
The Company's president, chief executive officer and principal
stockholder had personally pledged 2,000,000 shares of the Company
common stock as collateral for the loan. The Company defaulted on the
aforementioned loan when it was not able to make the required repayment
of $75,000 on June 11, 2002. Pursuant to the loan agreement, the
Company was required to issued 10,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock ("Penalty Shares") to the third party for each day the loan is
past due.
On May 1, 2003 the Company repaid the $75,000 loan from the third
party. In addition the Company has agreed to issue 1 million shares of
it's common stock in full settlement of the default provisions under
the note. In order to issue these shares the Company must amend its
certificate of incorporation to increase the number of shares it is
authorized to issue. The Company has also agreed to issue and
additional 100,000 shares of common stock to the third party if the
certificate of incorporation is not amended within six months. The
third party also received piggyback registration rights with respect it
the aforementioned shares. Concurrent with the repayment of the loan,
the third party has also released 2 million shares of the Company's
stock to the Company's major stockholder/president that the third party
had been holding as collateral for the loan.
NOTE E - Convertible Debt
During May, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement to borrow
funds, payable on demand, with no interest, and will be convertible
into common stock of the Company at $.03 per share. Since the current
loan agreement provides that the authorized number of shares required
to convert the loan is subject to shareholder approval, a commitment
date has not occurred. Upon approval for an increase in the authorized
number of shares, a substantial charge may be incurred representing the
beneficial conversion feature on the difference between the stated
conversion of $.03 per share and the market price. At August 31, 2003,
such charge could amount to the full loan proceeds under this
agreement. As of October 21, 2003, shareholder approval for such change
in authorized shares has not been effectuated.
As of October 22, 2003, $381,853 has been borrowed under this
agreement.
NOTE F - Settlement of Litigation
On May 1, 2003 a complaint naming the Company and its two officers was
filed by a third party in Palm Beach County, Florida. The complaint
alleged a breach of contract and contained allegations of losses of
$1,625,000 plus securities and other compensation. The Company entered
into a settlement agreement on September 5, 2003. The settlement calls
for the issuance of 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock and
payment of $10,000 in cash. The Company accrued this settlement as of
August 31, 2003, the common stock being valued at $12,000 based upon
the market price on the settlement date.
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Overview
On July 16, 2003, pursuant to the terms of Section 251(g) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, LCS Golf, Inc. hereafter referred to as "Golf," became
the wholly-owned subsidiary of LCS Group, Inc., hereinafter referred to as
"Group" or "we." Pursuant to this transaction, Group acquired all of the assets
of Golf, all former stockholders of Golf became the stockholders of Group, which
is the entity that is now publicly traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, and the
officers and sole director of Golf became the officers and sole director of
Group. The historical and financial information that we have set forth in this
Item relate to Golf except were the context indicates that it refers to Group.
We were a holding company that until December 31, 2001 operated as a provider of
out sourcing of permission e-mail marketing technologies and services. We
provided permission email direct marketing services through Golfpromo.net and
Targetmails.com, Internet and direct marketing services through Ifusionco.com.
and PlayGolfNow.com, Golf ecommerce news and information through a vertical golf
portal and discounts on golf services.
We have terminated all of our revenue generating operations and released all but
two of our employees, our two executive officers. As of August 31, 2003, we had
lost most of our websites and domain names, and our database had become
obsolete. Some of these websites and domain names are being used by a company
owned by our Chief Operating Officer. We do not intend to recover any of these
websites and/or domain names, update our database, or resume our prior
operations.
On August 21, 2003, we, together with our subsidiary, LCS Acquisition Corp., and
Conversion Services International, Inc. and Scott Newman and Glenn Peipert,
CSI's executive officers and principal stockholders, executed an Agreement and
Plan of Reorganization to merge CSI into LCS Acquisition Corp. If the
transaction is consummated, CSI will become the operating entity, LCS Group will
change its name to Conversion Services International, Inc. and the CSI
stockholders will control approximately between 85% and 90% of the shares of the
combined company. The transaction is subject, among other things, to the
approval of the CSI stockholders, the approval by the LCS Group stockholders to
an increase in the authorized LCS Group shares to one billion and appropriate
due diligence by the parties.
CSI was founded in 1990 by Messrs. Newman and Peipert and is located in East
Hanover, New Jersey. The company, with its Center for Data Warehousing, is a
leading provider of a new category of professional services that embraces IT
Management Consulting, Data Warehousing, Business Intelligence and e-Business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Balance, Working Capital and Cash Flows from Operating Activities
We had negative cash flow from operations of ($143,477) during the six-month
period ended August 31, 2003 because we had no revenue generating operations.
Over the 24-month period ending March 31, 2002, we continuously reduced our
operations so that as of that date we had suspended almost all of our revenue
generating operations because the income generated by our business was not
sufficient to sustain these operations. Since that date we have terminated all
of our revenue generating operations.
During the past six months lenders have advanced funds on our behalf that, as of
the date of this filing, approximate $400,000. These advances bear no interest
and are repayable on demand. They will be convertible into our common stock at
the rate of $0.03 per share after we have amended our certificate of
incorporation to increase the number of shares of common stock we are authorized
to issue. We have used these funds to repay certain indebtedness and for
professional fees and to pay certain ongoing expenses. Certain of these lenders
are holders of our common stock and/or have loaned funds to CSI.
On May 28, 2002, we entered into a loan agreement with an unaffiliated party
pursuant to which we borrowed $75,000. The loan bore no interest and was
repayable by July 23, 2002. We issued 200,000 shares of our common stock to the
lender. The loan agreement provided that if the loan was not repaid by the due
date, we would be obligated to issue 10,000 shares of our common stock to the
lender for each day that the loan remained unpaid.
On May 1, 2003, we repaid the $75,000 loan to the lender and agreed to issue him
one million shares of our common stock as soon as we amend our certificate of
incorporation to increase the number of shares we are authorized to issue, which
will then permit us to issue these shares. We also agreed to issue him an
additional 100,000 shares in the event that we fail to commence the procedure to
effect this amendment prior to six months after the repayment of the loan, and
granted him certain "piggy-back" registration rights with respect to his shares.
The lender released to Dr. Mitchell 2 million shares of our common stock owned
by Dr. Mitchell that he was holding as collateral for the repayment of the loan.
In addition, the lender, Dr. Mitchell and Golf exchanged general releases.
We continue to have a significant working capital deficiency and to generate
substantial losses.
Issues and Uncertainties
Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements in this Report, and any documents incorporated by reference
herein, constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 and the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking
statements include, among others words such as "expects," "anticipates,"
"intends," "believes" and other similar language. Our actual results could
differ materially from those discussed herein. You should not place undue
reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of
this Report. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include,
but are not limited to, the risks discussed in the risk factors set forth below,
which are not meant to be all-inclusive.
Risks Associated with our Company
We currently have no revenue generating operations. The following discussion
highlights certain material risks we currently face.
GOLF IS IN DEFAULT OF A SENIOR SECURED LOAN, WHICH COULD PREVENT US FROM
AFFILIATING WITH A REVENUE GENERATING BUSINESS.
Golf's failure to remit 50% of the cash proceeds from a financing transaction
with American Warrant Partners to Traffix, Inc. resulted in one of a number of
defaults under Golf's forbearance agreement with Traffix. Although we believe
that we are not bound by Golf's agreement with Traffix, we cannot assure you
that if Traffix elects to pursue its remedies under the forbearance agreement
against us we will be successful in maintaining our position. In the event that
we are not successful or are otherwise unable to reach a resolution with Traffix
acceptable to us, we may be unable to affiliate with a revenue generating
business because, among other things, Traffix's actions could prevent us from
obtaining needed financing. In addition, in the event that we are obligated to
satisfy Golf's continuing obligations under the Traffix agreements, any cash
flow we may generate in the future would be significantly adversely impacted if
we are required to remit 50% from new accounts receivable until Traffix is paid
in full. See also Notes B through D to Golf's unaudited consolidated financial
statements for the six months ended August 31, 2003 for information relating to
additional defaults by Golf on Golf's outstanding indebtedness for which we
could be liable.
OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION IS EXTREMELY WEAK AND WE MAY BE UNABLE TO CONTINUE AS A
GOING CONCERN.
Our operations have been dependent upon short-term borrowings and other funding
resources. From March 1, 1999 through August 31, 2003, our president made net
advances of approximately $910,497, of which $41,144 was advanced during our
fiscal year ended February 28,2003, $260,024 was advanced during our fiscal year
ended February 28,2002 and $359,566 was advanced during our fiscal year ended
February 28,2001. Our independent auditors' report on our consolidated financial
statements for the year ended February 28, 2003 and the notes to our unaudited
financial statements for the six months ended August 31, 2003 include language
reflecting that substantial doubt exists as to our ability to continue as a
going concern. Our financial statements show an accumulated deficit of
approximately $[INSERT AMOUNT]. We expect to continue to incur net losses and
negative cash flow for the foreseeable future and, unless we are able to acquire
or affiliate with a business that generates revenue and secure financing
necessary to support these activities by January 2004, we will most likely be
forced to cease all activities. Accordingly, any purchaser of our securities
should be prepared to lose his entire investment.
THE LOSS OF OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER WITHOUT AN ADEQUATE REPLACEMENT WOULD
REQUIRE US TO TERMINATE ALL ACTIVITIES.
Dr. Michael Mitchell, our president and chief executive officer, is one of only
two remaining employees and the only one who devotes any material time to our
matters. If Dr. Mitchell leaves the Company or is otherwise unable to act as our
Chief Executive Officer, we will be required to terminate all activities unless
we are able to find an adequate replacement, which we believe is most unlikely.
ITEM 3 - Controls and Procedures
Our management, which is comprised of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of
disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based
on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring
that all material information required to be filed in this quarterly report has
been made known to them in a timely fashion since they are our only employees
and we are inactive. There have been no significant changes in internal
controls, or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls,
subsequent to the date our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
completed their evaluation.
