NOTE 1 - BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. The information furnished in the interim consolidated financial statements include normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Although management believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its December 31, 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004.

NOTE 2 - RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain reclassifications have been made to the March 31, 2003 financial statements to conform to the current quarter's presentation.

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principals generally accepted in the Unites States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company does not have cash or other material assets, nor does it have an established source of revenues to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. It is the intent of the Company to obtain additional financing through equity offerings or other feasible financing alternatives to fund its ongoing operations. The Company also continues to pursue the development of the operations of its subsidiary, Auto Photo Kiosks, GmbH to cover the Company's working capital needs. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising the needed capital or in its efforts to increase revenues of its subsidiary, Auto Photo Kiosks, GmbH.

Forward Looking Statements

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "will", "should", "expects", "plans", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "predicts", "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks in the section entitled "Risk Factors", that may cause our company's or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. In this annual report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars. All references to CDN$ refer to Canadian dollars.

As used in this annual report, the terms "we", "us", "our" and "Spectre Industries" mean Spectre Industries, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiary, unless otherwise indicated.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2004 (see Item 1 "Financial Statements").

General Overview

Spectre Industries, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 13, 1986 under the name Abercrombie, Inc. On June 6, 1995, our name was changed to Spectre Motor Cars, Inc. We changed our name to Spectre Industries, Inc. on November 6, 1997. In December 1997, we retained the services of I.S. Grant & Company, Ltd. to assist in exploring opportunities in the automotive after-market.

In June 1998, Mr. Ian S. Grant, President of I.S. Grant & Company, was appointed to serve as our President and Director. Mr. Grant assisted us with the acquisition of our formerly 100% owned subsidiary, Grant Automotive Group, Inc., an Ontario corporation ("GAG"), from Grant Brothers Sales, Ltd. ("GBS"). Mr. Grant was an officer, director and shareholder of both GBS and our company at the time. As part of a Management Services Agreement entered into concurrently with that transaction, GBS received an aggregate of 450,000 shares. Through his ownership interest in GBS, Mr. Grant holds a beneficial interest in those shares.

We acquired all of the shares of GAG pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement, dated January 1, 2000, from GBS, a Canadian manufacturers' representative of automotive parts. The business of GAG consisted of GBS's traditional automotive division and heavy-duty division, consisting of the representation of approximately 53 manufacturers of parts used in the automotive after-market industry. As part of this transaction, we entered into the Management Services Agreement with GBS to provide managerial, sales and office support services to GAG for a term of five years. The Management Services Agreement provides GBS with a strong incentive to operate GAG efficiently and successfully. Further, it was clear that raising additional capital for our company would be difficult until GAG had been overseen and operated by our company for a substantial period of time.

On December 11, 2002 we entered into an agreement (the "Agreement") for the disposition of all of the shares of our wholly owned subsidiary GAG back to GBS (the "Sale"). A condition subsequent to the Agreement was that we

-10-

receive shareholder approval for the Agreement at a meeting to be called for that purpose. We obtained the approval of a majority of the shareholders at a special meeting held on November 12, 2003.

While we have disposed of GAG, we remain of the view that electronic commerce will be a viable industry in the future for the automotive after-market industry, even though the rate of adoption has been slower than previously forecasted. As a result, GBS will continue to joint venture directly with us in the marketing and sales representation of our e-commerce initiatives such as Turbo Spark, in conjunction with DST/MacDonald. Our recent exclusive distribution agreement with DST/Madonald for the distribution of their proprietary on-line parts procurement software product, "Turbo Spark", is a good opportunity to continue to utilize the GAG sales force in a low risk setting with potentially substantial returns. As a result, we will receive commission income on revenue earned from the sale of Turbo Spark to Canadian customers.

In an effort to diversify Spectre's business operations, on September 4, 2001, we founded Auto Photo Kiosk GmbH ("APK"), a limited liability corporation under the laws of Germany, together with three other shareholders: Joachim Zweifel €6,500 (13%), Gerhildt Voigtlaender €6,500 (13%) and Vending Concept GmbH €10,000 (20%). Spectre paid €27,000 (approximately US$24,519) for a 54% interest in APK. Pursuant to a shareholder's agreement dated July 5, 2002 (the "APK Agreement"), we acquired without paying a premium, 26% of the capital of APK for €13.000 (approximately US$12,736) from two of the four shareholders of APK, Joachim Zweifel and Gerhild Voigtlaender, both residing in Germany. We also took over two shareholder loans as part of the agreement. Each loan amounting to €18.453,60 (approximately US$18,079) for a total of €36,907.20 (approximately US$36,159), with no accumulated interest; from the selling shareholders Zweifel and Voigtlaender. We now own 80%, and Vending Concept GmbH, a Swiss corporation, continues to own the remaining 20% of the share capital of APK.

APK was incorporated in September 2001 as a service company to operate instant photo booths and related products, in major public access areas, primarily in Germany.

APK's existing customers are government and municipal agencies, malls and shopping centres. APK currently has 16 instant photo booths installed. The end users are individuals who go to the photo booths for photos to use in forms of personal identification (such as passports, driver's licenses, personal identification, etc.). APK's photo booths produce photos using digital technology and require no photo processing chemicals.

The locations for installation of a photo booth are made available by APK's customers who provide the locations for the photo booths. APK remunerates its customers, the location provider, through a revenue sharing arrangement of approximately 30-44% of the net revenues (gross revenues less 16% value-added-tax ("V.A.T.")), generated by each installed photo booth, or alternatively through a fixed rental rate. The length of the contracts for the location rentals vary from one year (contracts with written termination three months prior to expiration) up to 10 years.

Of the 16 instant photo booths that are installed, 11 are leased from EFS Business Consult GmbH & Co. Hora OHG in Germany under two lease agreements at a price of €12,271 plus 16% V.A.T. Both lease agreements have the same terms, and are for a period of 36 months with an automatic extension of an additional 24 months. The terms of the lease agreements are such that during months 1 through 36, APK pays a fixed lease payment of €300 per month per machine, plus the applicable 16% V.A.T. Additionally, there is a variable lease payment component in months 1 through 36 that is payable annually, beginning December 31, 2003 (applicable for the period from August 2002 to the end of December 2003). This is an amount that is based upon net revenues less costs (i.e. sales, service & maintenance). Upon extension of the lease agreement, in months 37 through 60, APK's lease payment is completely variable. The payment will be based upon a value that is in the middle of a range, which is based upon three calculations: (1) 25% of the monthly net revenues per photo booth, (2) 2.5% of the purchase price (€12,271 x € 306.78 x 24 months per machine), and (3) 4% of the purchase price (€12,271 x €490.84 x 24 months per machine). The lease agreements assume there will be a residual value at the end of the extension period (60 months). This is estimated to be approximately €250-€500 per machine.

The remaining five machines are directly owned by APK, having been purchased at a cost of €14, 271 plus 16% V.A.T. per booth. Of the instant photo booths that are installed, 4 are located in shopping centres and 12 are located in various city government buildings.

-11-

As we would like to relocate our assets and operations to an operating subsidiary, we entered into an agreement with Spectre Holdings Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary, on December 10, 2003, for the transfer of all our assets and liabilities to Spectre Holdings, which transfer remains subject to shareholder approval.

APK currently has only one full time employee and expects to hire more employees as required.

Three-Month Period Ended March 31, 2004 Compared to the Three-Month Period ended March 31, 2003.

Results of Operations

We incurred a net loss of $64,010 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 compared to a net loss of $168,212 for the comparative period in 2003. The decrease in the net loss occurred primarily as a result of the elimination of losses from our discontinued operations.

Revenues

We recognized a marginal increase in revenues to $71,954 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004. During the comparable period in 2003, we recognized revenues of $70,751. The marginal increase in revenue was due photo kiosk and consulting revenues remaining stable from the prior period. Our gross margins decreased slightly to $22,763 for the period ended March 31, 2004 from $29,538 for the period ended March 31, 2003.

General, Administration and Professional Fees

We experienced an decrease in general and administration expenses in the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 to $45,943, as compared to general and administration expenses for the same period in 2003 of $120,025. This decrease was primarily due to the elimination of the expenses associated with the operations of GAG.

Summary

We have incurred operating losses since inception. The continuation of our business is dependent upon the continuing financial support of our creditors and stockholders, obtaining further financing, and, finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. There are however, no assurances that we will be able to generate further funds required for our continued operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our net loss for the three-months ended March 31, 2004 was $64,010, compared to $168,212 for the same period in 2003. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2004, we incurred an operating loss of $61,692. During the same period in 2003, we incurred an operating loss of $166,843.

Net cash provided in operating activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 was $28,410 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $91,503 during the comparative period in 2003.

Net cash used in investing activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 was $nil, compared to cash provided by investing activities of $nil for the same period in 2003. Net cash used in financing activities was $30,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004, which consisted of payment on a note, compared to net cash provided of $55,000 for the comparative period in 2003. The net decrease in cash during the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 was $1,590, leaving us with a cash balance at March 31, 2004 of $22,079.

We anticipate that we will be able to raise sufficient short-term capital in order to finance our operations and working capital requirements through the end of the fiscal year. Before the end of the current fiscal year, we also anticipate an increase in revenues that, in addition to any financing raised, will fund operations and working capital requirements. We do not currently have any material commitments for capital expenditures.

-12-

Our capital requirements are difficult to plan in light of our current strategy to expand our customer base for the automated photo booth operations of APK. Since our inception, we have been dependent on investment capital as an important source of liquidity. Our operations presently are generating negative cash flow, and we do not expect positive cash flow from operations in the near term. We need to secure additional working capital in the short-term in order to sustain our operations and execute our business plan. It is our intention to raise sufficient funds necessary to carry our company through to positive cash flow and profitability. Management projects that we may require an additional $200,000 to $250,000 to help fund our ongoing operating expenses and working capital requirements for the next twelve months.

Personnel

As of March 31, 2004, we do not have any employees other than our directors and officers. Our company is managed by Ian S. Grant under a consulting agreement with Grant & Co., dated June 1, 1998. Over the twelve months ending March 31, 2005, we do not expect to hire any employees.

Future Operations

An investment in our common stock involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in this quarterly report in evaluating our company and our business before purchasing shares of common stock. It is possible that our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed due to any of the risks disclosed herein. The trading price of shares of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you could lose all or part of your investment.

Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, in their report on our consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as the continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further financing, successful and sufficient market acceptance of our automated photo products, the continuing successful development of our photo booth operations, and, finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.

There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. We are pursuing various financing alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements, which we anticipate will consist of further private placements of our equity securities or shareholder loans. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due and we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, which established a uniform methodology for accounting for estimated reclamation and abandonment costs. The statement was effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

On April 30, 2002, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 145 (SFAS 145), "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." SFAS 145 rescinds both FASB Statement No. 4 (SFAS 4), "Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt," and the amendment to SFAS 4, FASB Statement No. 64 (SFAS 64), "Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund

-13-

Requirements." Through this rescission, SFAS 145 eliminates the requirement (in both SFAS 4 and SFAS 64) that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect. However, an entity is not prohibited from classifying such gains and losses as extraordinary items, so long as it meets the criteria in paragraph 20 of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions. Further, SFAS 145 amends paragraph 14(a) of FASB Statement No. 13, "Accounting for Leases", to eliminate an inconsistency between the accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. The amendment requires that a lease modification (1) results in recognition of the gain or loss in the 9 financial statements, (2) is subject to FASB Statement No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate," if the leased asset is real estate (including integral equipment), and (3) is subject (in its entirety) to the sale-leaseback rules of FASB Statement No. 98, "Accounting for Leases: Sale-Leaseback Transactions Involving Real Estate, Sales-Type Leases of Real Estate, Definition of the Lease Term, and Initial Direct Costs of Direct Financing Leases." Generally, FAS 145 is effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS 145 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities" (SFAS 146). SFAS 146 addresses significant issues regarding the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs that are associated with exit and disposal activities, including restructuring activities that are currently accounted for under EITF No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." The scope of SFAS 146 also includes costs related to terminating a contract that is not a capital lease and termination benefits that employees who are involuntarily terminated receive under the terms of a one-time benefit arrangement that is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred-compensation contract. SFAS 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002 and early application is encouraged. The provisions of EITF No. 94-3 shall continue to apply for an exit activity initiated under an exit plan that met the criteria of EITF No. 94-3 prior to the adoption of SFAS 146. The effect on adoption of SFAS 146 will change on a prospective basis the timing of when the restructuring charges are recorded from a commitment date approach to when the liability is incurred. The adoption of SFAS 146 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In October 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 147, "Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions" which is effective for acquisitions on or after October 1, 2002. This statement provides interpretive guidance on the application of the purchase method to acquisitions of financial institutions. Except for transactions between two or more mutual enterprises, this Statement removes acquisitions of financial institutions from the scope of both SFAS 72 and Interpretation 9 and requires that those transactions be accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". The adoption of SFAS No. 147 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123" which is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. This Statement amends SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" which is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting for derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and hedging activities under SFAS 133. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity" which is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and is otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. This Statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures in its statement of financial position certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances) because that financial instrument embodies an obligation of the issuer. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

"Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others - an Interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107". The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of this Interpretation are to be applied prospectively to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements in the Interpretation were effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 45 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." FIN 46 provides guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights, variable interest entities, and how to determine when and which business enterprises should consolidate variable interest entities. This interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. It applies in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

RISK FACTORS

Much of the information included in this quarterly report includes or is based upon estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". Such forward-looking statements include any projections or estimates made by us and our management in connection with our business operations. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumption upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgement regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions, or other future performance suggested herein. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.

Such estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements" involve various risks and uncertainties as outlined below. We caution readers of this quarterly report that important factors in some cases have affected and, in the future, could materially affect actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in any such estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". In evaluating us, our business and any investment in our business, readers should carefully consider the following factors.

"Penny Stock" Rules

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our company's securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors." The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require that a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In

addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of, our common stock.

Limited Operating History In Providing Services to the Instant Photo Booth Industry

On September 4, 2001 we commenced the operation of our current business in the instant photo booth market. As such, we have a limited operating history on which to base an evaluation of our business and prospects. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development. Some of these risks and uncertainties relate to our ability to:

- establish and maintain relationships with key location providers for our instant photo booths;

- respond effectively to competitive and technological developments;

- build an infrastructure to support our business;

- attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.

We cannot be sure that we will be successful in addressing these risks and uncertainties and our failure to do so may impair our ability to capture market share and generate revenues. In addition, our operating results are dependent to a large degree upon factors outside of our control, including the general strength and viability of the automotive after-market industry and the acceptance of our instant photo booths in the German market.

Many of Our Competitors Have Greater Resources And Better Name Recognition

Many of our competitors are substantially larger than us and have significantly greater financial resources and marketing capabilities than we have, together with better name recognition. Competitors with superior resources and capabilities may be better able to utilize such advantages to market their services better, faster and/or cheaper than we can.

Increased competition from future or existing competitors in the instant photo booth market will likely impair our ability to establish and maintain market share. If we are unsuccessful in establishing and maintaining a sufficient number of instant photo booths in profitable locations, it is unlikely that we will be able to generate sufficient revenues to sustain operations

We lack working capital and due to the losses incurred since inception, our stockholders' deficiencies and lack of revenues, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to the losses incurred since inception, our stockholders' deficiency, and lack of revenues.

We have not generated sufficient revenues to cover our operational expenses and do not anticipate doing so in the near future. If our business does not meet our intended income goals, we will require additional financing. If we are not successful in obtaining additional financing by the end of 2004, we may be required to reduce operations to a sustainable level until any such financing is obtained, or sufficient revenues are generated to sustain operations. There can be no assurances that additional equity or other financing will be available at all or available on terms acceptable to us.

Our ability to continue in business in part depends upon our continued ability to obtain financing. There can be no assurance that any such financing would be available upon terms and conditions acceptable to us, if at all. The

-16-

inability to obtain additional financing in a sufficient amount when needed and upon acceptable terms and conditions could have a materially adverse effect upon us. Inadequate funding could impair our ability to compete in the marketplace and could result in our dissolution.

We have a history of net losses and a lack of established revenues, and as a result, we expect to incur our net losses in the future.

We have had a history of losses and expect to continue to incur losses, and may never achieve or maintain profitability. As of March 31, 2004 we have an accumulated deficit of $12,378,881.

Risk of Termination of Site Contracts

The contracts pursuant to which we place instant photo booths on site locations that are short-term, ie. one year "evergreen" contracts that are easily terminated by either party. There can be no assurance that contracts to place instant photo booths will not be terminated at any time. The termination of a contract or other arrangement with a provider of multiple sites, would significantly reduce our number of auto photo kiosk installations and limit access to prime site locations in the future. Such a termination could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Dependence on a Single Product; Rapid Technological Change

Going forward we will derive the majority of our revenues from the operation of our instant photo booths. The digital technology incorporated by our instant photo booths is characterized by rapid technological change, new products and services, evolving industry standards and changing client preferences. Our success will depend, in significant part, upon our ability to make timely and cost-effective enhancements and additions to the auto photo kiosk technology and to introduce new products and services that meet customer demands. We expect new products and services to be developed and introduced by other companies that compete with our products and services. The proliferation of new digital photographic technology may reduce demand for our instant photo booths. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in responding to these or other technological changes, to evolving industry standards or to new products and services offered by our current and future competitors. In addition, we may not have access to sufficient capital for our research and development needs in order to develop or acquire new products and services.

Disruption in Manufacturing and Repair; Inability to Manufacture or Service Instant Photo Booths

The supply, manufacture technical updates and servicing of the instant photo booths is provided exclusively by Vending Concepts GmbH. We are dependent on this one supplier for the provision, repair and servicing of the instant photo booths. Our reliance on this supplier, as well as industry supply conditions generally, subject us to various risks, including the possibility of a shortage or a lack of availability of instant photo booths, key components, quality control problems, increases in component costs and reduced control over delivery schedules, any of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. In situations where we are unable to rectify supply or quality problems associated with our instant photo booths costly delays could result. Although we believe that our supplier has current manufacturing capabilities to enable it to produce sufficient instant photo booths for our purposes through fiscal 2004, there can be no assurance that this will be adequate for unanticipated future growth.

Uncertain Ability To Achieve, Manage Or Sustain Growth

It may be necessary for us to grow in order to remain competitive. Our ability to grow is dependent upon a number of factors including, but not limited to, our ability to hire, train and assimilate management and other employees, the adequacy of our financial resources, our ability to identify and efficiently provide new services as may be demanded by our customers in the future and our ability to adapt our services to accommodate necessary operational changes. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve such expansion or that we will be able to manage expanded operations successfully. Failure to manage growth effectively and efficiently could have an adverse effect on our ability to acquire sufficient market share and remain competitive.

Dependence Upon Ian S. Grant

Our key personnel is limited at present to Ian S. Grant, our President. The loss of the services of Mr. Grant and other employees, for any reason, may have a materially adverse effect on our prospects. Although we believe that the loss of any of our management or other key employees (apart from Mr. Grant) will not have a material adverse impact upon us, there can be no assurance in this regard, nor any assurance that we will be able to find suitable replacements. In addition, competition for personnel is intense, making it difficult to find highly skilled employees with appropriate qualifications. Furthermore, we do not maintain "key man" life insurance on the lives of any of our management or other of our key employees. To the extent that the services of any key employee of ours becomes unavailable, we will be required to retain other qualified persons. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to employ qualified persons upon acceptable terms.

Volatility Of Stock Price

The trading price of our common stock has been and may continue to be subject to wide fluctuations. Trading prices of our common stock may fluctuate in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. The trading prices of many companies' stocks have recently been at historical highs and reflected price earnings ratios substantially above historical levels. There can be no assurance that such trading prices and price earnings ratios will be achieved again. These broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of the common stock, regardless of our operating performance.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources.

Effect Of Shares Eligible For Public Sale

As of May 10, 2004, there were 20,878,081 common shares issued and outstanding. As of May 10, 2004, there were no shares held in escrow. Sales of a large number of shares could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. Any sales by these stockholders could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

Insider Control Of Common Stock

As of May 10, 2004, directors and executive officers beneficially owned approximately 1,000,000 shares of our outstanding common stock. As a result, these stockholders, if they act as a group, will have a significant influence on all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. Such control may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control.

Item 3. Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report, being March 31, 2004, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our company's disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our company's management, including our company's president. Based upon that evaluation, our company's president a concluded that our company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. There have been no significant changes in our company's internal controls or in other factors, which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date we carried our evaluation.
