American Ammunition, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2005 and 2004
Note A - Organization and Description of Business
American Ammunition, Inc. (AAI or Company) was incorporated on February 1, 2000
in accordance with the Laws of the State of California. The Company functions as
a holding company providing management oversight services to its wholly-owned
operating subsidiaries; F&F Equipment, Inc. and Industrial Plating Enterprise
Co.
F&F Equipment, Inc.(F&F) was incorporated on October 4, 1983 in accordance with
the Laws of the State of Florida. F&F is engaged in the design, manufacture and
international sales of small arms ammunition. F&F has conducted its business
operations under the assumed name of "American Ammunition" since its inception.
Industrial Plating Enterprise Co. (IPE), which was incorporated and commenced
production on June 14, 2002. IPE is a fully licensed and approved state of the
art electrochemical metallization facility for processing the Company's line of
small arms projectiles as well as other products and services while employing
environmentally sound water conservation and proven waste treatment techniques.
The facility meets or exceeds all current environmental requirements and enjoys
the "conditionally exempt small quantity generator" status for State and Federal
regulations. All activities of IPE since its inception have been dedicated to
the needs and demands of F&F.
Note B - Preparation of Financial Statements
The Company and its subsidiaries follow the accrual basis of accounting in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America and have adopted a year-end of December 31 for all entities.
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 and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound
accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal
accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company's system of
internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that 1)
recorded transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3)
transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce
financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being
presented
During interim periods, the Company follows the accounting policies set forth in
its annual audited financial statements filed with the U. S. Securities and
Exchange Commission on its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 2004. The information presented within these interim financial
statements may not include all disclosures required by generally accepted
accounting principles and the users of financial information provided for
interim periods should refer to the annual financial information and footnotes
when reviewing the interim financial results presented herein.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial statements,
prepared in accordance with the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission's
instructions for Form 10-QSB, are unaudited and contain all material
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to
present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of
the Company for the respective interim periods presented. The current period
results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results which ultimately
will be reported for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2005.

American Ammunition, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
June 30, 2005 and 2004
Note B - Preparation of Financial Statements - Continued
For segment reporting purposes, the Company operated in only one industry
segment during the periods represented in the accompanying financial statements
and makes all operating decisions and allocates resources based on the best
benefit to the Company as a whole.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements contain the accounts of
American Ammunition, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, F&F Equipment, Inc.
and Industrial Plating Enterprise Co. All significant intercompany transactions
have been eliminated. The consolidated entities are collectively referred to as
"Company".
Note C - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
1. Cash and cash equivalents
For Statement of Cash Flows purposes, the Company considers all cash on
hand and in banks, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid
investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be
cash and cash equivalents.
Cash overdraft positions may occur from time to time due to the timing of
making bank deposits and releasing checks, in accordance with the Company's
cash management policies.
2. Accounts receivable and Revenue Recognition
In the normal course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to
virtually all of its customers which are located throughout the United
States. Because of the credit risk involved, management has provided an
allowance for doubtful accounts which reflects its opinion of amounts which
will eventually become uncollectible. In the event of complete
non-performance, the maximum exposure to the Company is the recorded amount
of trade accounts receivable shown on the balance sheet at the date of non-
performance.
The Company ships all product on an FOB-Plant, "as-is" basis. Accordingly,
revenue is recognized by the Company at the point at which an order is
shipped at a fixed price, collection is reasonably assured and the Company
has no remaining performance obligations related to the sale. The Company
sells all products with "no right of return" by the purchaser for any
factor other than defects in the product's production.
On rare occasion, the Company may elect to accept product returns from
customers on a case-by-case basis to offset unpaid accounts receivable.
These situations are a "last case" scenario and are initiated by senior
management through negotiations with the respective customer.
3. Inventory
Inventory consists of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods
related to the production and sale of small arms ammunition. Inventory is
valued at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method.
4. Property, plant and equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost. These costs are
depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets using
the straight-line method, generally three to ten years.

American Ammunition, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
June 30, 2005 and 2004
Note C - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued
4. Property, plant and equipment - continued
Gains and losses from disposition of property and equipment are recognized
as incurred and are included in operations.
5. Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income
taxes. At June 30, 2005 and 2004, the deferred tax asset and deferred tax
liability accounts, as recorded when material to the financial statements,
are entirely the result of temporary differences. Temporary differences
represent differences in the recognition of assets and liabilities for tax
and financial reporting purposes, primarily accumulated depreciation and
amortization, allowance for doubtful accounts and vacation accruals.
As of June 30, 2005 and 2004, the deferred tax asset related to the
Company's net operating loss carryforward is fully reserved. If these
carryforwards are not utilized, they will begin to expire at the end of
2005.
6. Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income
(loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of
common shares outstanding during the respective period presented in our
accompanying financial statements.
Fully diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic income
(loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the
number of common stock equivalents (primarily outstanding options and
warrants).
Common stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed
exercise of the outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury
stock method, at either the beginning of the respective period presented or
the date of issuance, whichever is later, and only if the common stock
equivalents are considered dilutive based upon the Company's net income
(loss) position at the calculation date.
As of June 30, 2005 and 2004, and subsequent thereto, the Company had no
options outstanding. The outstanding warrants and convertible preferred
stock and mandatorily convertible debentures are anti- dilutive due to the
Company's net operating loss position.
7. Advertising costs
The Company does not conduct any direct response advertising activities.
For non-direct response advertising, the Company charges the costs of these
efforts to operations at the first time the related advertising is
published.
Note D - Correction of an Error
On August 22, 2007, our management concluded that the financial statements
included in our Forms 10-QSB for June and September 2005, the calendar year 2006
and for the period ending March 31, 2007, and the Forms 10-KSB for the periods
ending December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006, all of which have been
previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, need to be
restated, due to the failure to include the beneficial conversion feature
discount on unsecured convertible indebtedness.

American Ammunition, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
June 30, 2005 and 2004
Note D - Correction of an Error - Continued
Management discovered such changes needed to be made after consulting with
Pollard-Kelley Auditing Services, our independent registered public accounting
firm as of June 26, 2007, who have concurred with management as to the
reexamination of the above mentioned issues.
The Company has entered into certain notes payable to shareholders and other
affiliated parties with embedded conversion features and warrant issues. The
appropriate accounting is governed by EITF 98-5: "Accounting for convertible
securities with beneficial conversion features or contingency adjustable
conversion" and EITF No. 00-27: "Application of issue No 98-5 to certain
convertible instruments". Conversion features determined to be beneficial to the
holder are valued at fair value and recorded to additional paid in capital. The
fair value is determined to be ascribed to the detachable warrants issued with
the convertible debentures utilizing the Black-Scholes method. Any discount
derived from determining the fair value to the debenture conversion features and
warrants is amortized to financing cost over the life of the debenture. The
unamortized discount, if any, upon the conversion of the debentures is expensed
to financing cost on a pro rata basis.
Debt issues with the variable conversion features are considered to be embedded
derivatives and are accountable in accordance with FASB 133; "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". The fair value of the embedded
derivative is recorded to derivative liability. This liability is required to be
marked each reporting period. The resulting discount on the debt is amortized to
interest expense over the life of the related debt.
The errors discovered by management relate directly to the accounting for and
recording various conversion features and warrants as follows:

American Ammunition, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
June 30, 2005 and 2004
Note D - Correction of an Error - Continued
In light of the restatements to the financial statements disclosed above,
caused, in part, by a failure in the Company's internal control over financing
reporting due to the limitations in the Company's accounting resources to
identify and react in a timely manner to non-routine, complex and/or
transactions originated by other parties on the Company's behalf, as well as
gaining an adequate understanding of the disclosure requirements relating to
these types of transactions, we feel that the existing controls and procedures
were and remain effective. Because of said controls, which resulted in the
review, discovery and disclosure by amendment of filings to adequately disclose
required information, management also concludes that by requiring supplemental
reviews of financing transactions that its existing controls and procedures will
be more effective.
Note E - Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes
payable, as applicable, approximates fair value due to the short term nature of
these items and/or the current interest rates payable in relation to current
market conditions.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the Company's earnings are subject to
fluctuations in interest rates on either investments or on debt and is fully
dependent upon the volatility of these rates. The Company does not use
derivative instruments to moderate its exposure to interest rate risk, if any.
Financial risk is the risk that the Company's earnings are subject to
fluctuations in interest rates or foreign exchange rates and are fully dependent
upon the volatility of these rates. The company does not use derivative
instruments to moderate its exposure to financial risk, if any.
Note F - Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash accounts in a single financial institution
subject to insurance coverage issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC). Under FDIC rules, the Company and its subsidiaries are
entitled to aggregate coverage of $100,000 per account type per separate legal
entity per financial institution.
During the period ended June 30, 2005 and the periods subsequent thereto,
respectively, the various operating companies maintained deposits in this
financial institution with credit risk exposures in excess of statutory FDIC
coverage. The Company incurred no losses during 2003 and 2004, and subsequent
thereto, as a result of any of these unsecured situations.

As of March 31, 2005, the outstanding balance on the convertible debenture is

============ ==========
The debentures bear interest at 8%, mature on June 30, 2007, and are convertible
into our common stock, at the selling stockholder's option. The convertible
debentures are convertible into the number of our shares of common stock equal
to the principal amount of the debentures being converted multiplied by 11, less
the product of the conversion price multiplied by 10 times the dollar amount of
the debenture. The conversion price for the convertible debentures is the lesser
of (I) $1.00 or (ii) seventy six percent of the average of the five lowest
volume weighted average prices during the twenty (20) trading days prior to the
conversion. Accordingly, there is in fact no limit on the number of shares into
which the debenture may be converted.
However, in the event that our market price is less than $.30, we will have the
option to prepay the debenture at 125% rather than have the debenture converted.
In addition, the selling stockholder is obligated to exercise the warrant
concurrently with the submission of a conversion notice by the selling
stockholder. As of June 30, 2005, the warrant is exercisable into 2,413,650
shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share.
In December 2004, the Company entered into an addendum to the convertible
debenture and warrant whereby the Company agreed to the following:
* the discount multiplier was reduced from eighty percent to seventy six
percent;
* within five business days after this registration statement being declared
effective, La Jolla is required to submit a debenture conversion in the
amount of $10,000 and every ten business days thereafter La Jolla shall
submit three additional debenture conversion in the amount of $10,000 each;
* within five business days after this registration statement being declared
effective, La Jolla shall wire $400,000 to us as a prepayment towards the
exercise of its warrant; and
* immediately following the sale of all shares held by La Jolla in connection
with the debenture conversions in the aggregate amount of $40,000, La Jolla
shall wire $275,000 to us as a prepayment towards the exercise of its
warrant and shall submit a debenture conversion in the amount of $6,250 on
the first business day of each month until the debenture is no longer
outstanding.
LaJolla has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to convert or exercise
its warrants and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of
shares of common stock held by them and their affiliates after such conversion
or exercise does exceed 4.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common
stock.

Note J - Convertible Debenture - Continued
Due to the contractually agreed mandatory conversion of this Debenture, the
Company has reflected this transaction in its balance sheet as a "mezzanine"
level debt obligation on its balance sheet, between "Total Liabilities" and
"Stockholders' Equity". Upon the respective mandatory conversion, the Company
will relieve the respective portion of the Debenture and the any related
accrued, but unpaid interest, and credit this amount to the respective "common
stock" and "additional paid-in capital" accounts in the stockholder's equity
section for the par value and excess amount over the par value of the respective
shares issued.
As the warrant is non-detachable from the Debenture and requires simultaneous
exercise upon conversion of the Debenture, no value was assigned to the issued
warrant. Upon exercise of the warrant, the Company will record the issuance of
the underlying shares as a new issuance of common stock on the date of each
respective exercise.
On various dates through December 31, 2003, the Debenture Holder elected to
convert an aggregate $208,635, through 24 separate transactions, in outstanding
Debenture principal into restricted, unregistered common stock. This election
caused the Company to issue 4,561,753 shares of restricted, unregistered common
stock to the Debenture Holder. Additionally, pursuant to the contract terms, the
Debenture Holder concurrently exercised a portion of the outstanding Warrant to
purchase 2,086,350 shares of the Company's restricted, unregistered common stock
for gross proceeds of $2,086,350.
On various dates between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2004, the Debenture
Holder elected to convert an aggregate $125,000, through 6 separate
transactions, in outstanding Debenture principal into registered common stock.
This election caused the Company to issue 4,150,000 shares of common stock to
the Debenture Holder. Additionally, pursuant to the contract terms, the
Debenture Holder concurrently exercised a portion of the outstanding Warrant to
purchase 1,250,000 shares of the Company's common stock for gross proceeds of
$1,250,000. As of December 31, 2004, an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the
Company's common stock have been issued by the Company and are being held in
escrow by the Company's counsel pending receipt of the final $150,000 from the
Debenture Holder.
Between January 1, 2005 and June 30, 2005, the Debenture Holder elected to
convert an aggregate $25,000, through a separate transaction, in outstanding
Debenture principal into registered common stock. This election caused the
Company to issue 750,000 shares of common stock to the Debenture Holder.
Additionally, pursuant to the contract terms, the Debenture Holder concurrently
exercised a portion of the outstanding Warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of the
Company's common stock for gross proceeds of $250,000.
On May 6, 2005 and June 21, 2005, the Company authorized the issuance of an
aggregate 14,000,000 shares into the A designated escrow account for the purpose
of facilitating future conversions of the outstanding Debenture into common
stock in conjunction with the exercise of the outstanding Warrants. Subsequent
to June 30, 2005, the Debenture Holder, in 4 separate transactions, was issued
an aggregate 5,824,758 shares for the conversion of an aggregate $40,000 in
Convertible Debenture and the exercise of 400,000 Warrants at an aggregate price
of $400,000.

The Company accounts for debt with embedded conversion features and warrant
issues in accordance with EITF 98-5: "Accounting for convertible securities with
beneficial conversion features or contingency adjustable conversion" and EITF
No. 00-27: "Application of issue No 98-5 to certain convertible instruments".
Conversion features determined to be beneficial to the holder are valued at fair

discount, if any, upon the conversion of the debentures is expensed to financing
cost on a pro rata basis.
Debt issues with the variable conversion features are considered to be embedded
derivatives and are accountable in accordance with FASB 133; "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". The fair value of the embedded
derivative is recorded to derivative liability. This liability is required to be

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
In September, October and November 2001, the Company sold an aggregate 222,600
shares of $5.00 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (Series A Preferred Stock)
for total proceeds of approximately $1,113,000 through a Private Placement
Memorandum. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock provides for cumulative
dividends at a rate of 8.0% per year, payable quarterly, in cash or shares of
the Company's common stock at the Company's election. Each share of Series A
Preferred Stock is convertible into 11 shares of the Company's common stock
initially at any time after 6 months of the date of issue and prior to the
notice of redemption at the option of the holder, subject to adjustments for
customary anti-dilution events. In December 2001, at the request of the holders
of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company and the individual holders modified
the holding period for conversion to allow for conversion in December 2001.
In September 2001, the Company's principal stockholder converted approximately
$4,007,327 of unsecured debt and approximately $3,546,273 of cumulative and
unpaid accrued interest into 1,510,710 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
In September 2001, a creditor of the Company agreed to convert approximately
$10,000 of trade accounts payable into 2,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
In December 2001, concurrent with a modification in the holding period prior to
conversion, certain holders of the Series A Preferred Stock orally notified the
Company of their intent to exercise the conversion features on 1,749,720 issued
and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock into 19,246,920 shares of
common stock prior to December 31, 2001. Due to the timing of the requisite
documentation, the clerical activities related to this conversion were not
completed until February 2002.
In conjunction with the Series A Preferred Stock, certain shares were sold after
the Company's common stock was approved for trading by the National Association
of Securities Dealers on the OTC Bulletin Board in October 2001. The shares of
Series A Preferred Stock sold subsequent to this date had an equivalent per
share value of common stock below the ending quoted market price of the
Company's common stock on their respective issue dates. This difference created
a Beneficial Conversion Feature Discount of approximately $1,207,993. This
discount was then amortized over the unexpired time period between the date of
issue of the eligible shares and the eligible conversion date, as amended. All
of the shares sold subsequent to the initial trading date were converted in
December 2001 and, accordingly, the approximate $1,207,993 in Beneficial
Conversion Feature Discount was fully amortized to operations.
In December 2002, a holder of 5,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock exercised
his conversion rights and converted these shares of Series A Preferred Stock
into 55,000 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock.
In January 2003, three separate holders of 9,000 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock exercised their conversion rights and converted these shares of Series A
Preferred stock into 99,000 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock.
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
In May 2003, the Company sold an aggregate 91,700 shares of $5.00 Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock (Series B Preferred Stock) for total proceeds of
approximately $458,500 through a separate Private Placement Memorandum. The
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock provides for cumulative dividends at a rate
of 8.0% per year, payable quarterly, in cash or shares of the Company's common
stock at the Company's election. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is
convertible into 11 shares of the Company's common stock initially at any time
after 6 months of the date of issue and prior to the notice of redemption at the
option of the holder, subject to adjustments for customary anti-dilution events.

outstanding debenture balance and approximately $1,250,000 in cash from the

common stock was in excess of the respective price per share on the respective

"compensation expense related to common stock issuances at less than "fair
value". The cumulative effect of transactions where the transaction price, as

shares of common stock in advance of the exercise of a $25,000 redemption on the

Restatement issues
The June 30, 2005, financial statements have been restated to account for
the derivative liability that was incurred in connection with the common stock
conversion features and the warrants issued with certain notes payable (see
Notes I and J to the accompanying consolidated financial statements).
The Company accounts for debt with embedded conversion features and warrant
issues in accordance with EITF 98-5: "Accounting for convertible securities with
beneficial conversion features or contingency adjustable conversion" and EITF
No. 00-27: "Application of issue No 98-5 to certain convertible instruments".
Conversion features determined to be beneficial to the holder are valued at fair
value and recorded to additional paid in capital. The Company determines the
fair value to be ascribed to the detachable warrants issued with the convertible
debentures utilizing the Black-Scholes method. Any discount derived from
determining the fair value to the debenture conversion features and warrants is
amortized to financing cost over the life of the debenture. The unamortized
discount, if any, upon the conversion of the debentures is expensed to financing
cost on a pro rata basis.
Debt issues with the variable conversion features are considered to be
embedded derivatives and are accountable in accordance with FASB 133;
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". The fair value
of the embedded derivative is recorded to derivative liability. This liability
is required to be marked each reporting period. The resulting discount on the
debt is amortized to interest expense over the life of the related debt.
Overview
We were incorporated on February 1, 2000 in the State of California as
FirsTelevision.com. We subsequently changed our corporate name to FBI Fresh
Burgers International which unsuccessfully marketed a business plan concept of a
national "fast food" restaurant chain.

American Ammunition, Inc. is a holding company with two operating
subsidiaries: F&F Equipment, Inc. and Industrial Plating Enterprise Co.
F&F Equipment, Inc. was incorporated on October 4, 1983 under the laws of
the State of Florida. The company was formed to engage principally in the
"import, export, retail & wholesale of firearms equipment, ammunition & other
devices and for the purpose of transacting any and/or all lawful business." F&F
conducts its business operations under the assumed name of "American
Ammunition."
In June 2002, American Ammunition, Inc. formed a wholly owned subsidiary,
Industrial Plating Enterprise Co., which started production on June 14, 2002.
Industrial Plating is a fully licensed and approved electrochemical
metallization facility with significant capacity for processing our line of
projectiles as well as other products and services while employing
environmentally sound water conservation and proven waste treatment techniques.
During the third quarter of 2003, the Company's operations experienced the
negative impact of a lower than anticipated or budgeted purchases by Elliot
Brothers, a significant customer.
However, during this same time period, the Company has entered into a
strategic alliance with Israel Military Industries (IMI), an entity owned by the
State of Israel, for the cross-production and sale of various small arms
ammunition. This alliance is anticipated to greatly expand the Company's catalog
of products and assist in utilizing existing production capacity.
In prior periods, the Company executed a private labeling agreement with
Century International Arms, Inc. (Century). Under this agreement, the Company
was to produce its standard catalog of small arms ammunition plus one specialty
small arms cartridge to Century's specifications for packaging in Century's
designated labeling. This agreement required no modifications to the Company's
production line and did not require the addition of supplemental personnel or
equipment. The Company made an initial shipment under this agreement to Century
during December 2003. Virtually immediately, the Company began to experience
problems with Century regarding Century's compliance with their performance
criteria under this agreement. During the first quarter of 2004, Century
defaulted on certain agreed-upon payment schedules on merchandise sold during
December 2003. In repayment of the outstanding trade debt, the Company accepted
unscheduled product returns as payment of the trade debt. As a result of these
issues, the Company recognized a charge to operations of approximately $28,000
on its business activity with Century. The returned merchandise was repackaged
and is resalable by the Company to other customers. As of June 30, 2004, the
Company has cancelled this agreement, and is contemplating litigation against
Century for breach of contractual obligations under this agreement.
Additionally, the Company has been awarded three (3) separate contracts
from various departments of the U. S. Government. Each contract is for an
initial term of one year (commencing between April 24, 2003 and September 30,
2003) with four (4) successive individual one-year extension options. The
contracts are summarized as follows:
Contract 1: U. S. Department of State. Minimum annual volume of approximately
100,000 rounds of military grade small arms ammunition. Maximum
annual volume of approximately 5,000,000 rounds. Maximum volume
may be increased at the discretion of the Contracting Officer and
respective utilization requirements. The Company has received
firm orders for 2,265,000 rounds of ammunition under this
contract and has approximately 1,265,000 rounds ready for
shipment. The ammunition under this contract will be subject to
the strategic alliance with Israel Military Industries (IWI).
Contract 2: U. S. Department of Energy. This contract covers seven (7)
separate products in the Company's standard catalog of products.
The U. S. Department of Energy is obligated to purchase an
aggregate of 4,549,000 rounds of ammunition under this contract.
Through March 31, 2004, the Company has not shipped any product
under this contract.
23
Contract 3: U. S. Department of Homeland Security. This contract covers four
(4) separate products being introduced to the Company's catalog
through the strategic alliance with IMI and requires no
modifications to the Company's production facilities or additions
to the labor force. The minimum annual volume is 1,000 rounds of
each product and a maximum annual volume of 9,600,000 rounds of
two (2) products and 36,000,000 of the remaining two (2)
products. The Company has shipped all first article samples, as
defined in the contract, and has received favorable feedback on a
20,000 round shipment during the first quarter of 2004. Full
scale shipments are anticipated to commence during the second
quarter of 2004.
During the first quarter of 2004 and subsequent thereto, the Company
remains in negotiation for the issuance of purchase orders against these
contracts and continues to prepare bids on other contracts from these and other
U. S. Governmental agencies.
During the first quarter of 2004, the Company commenced a direct
solicitation program for its "dealer direct" sales program. As this endeavor has
received a very positive initial response from the qualified retail resellers of
the Company's product, the announcement of this program had a significantly
detrimental impact on the Company's relationship with wholesale distributors
and, accordingly, had a significant negative impact on first quarter 2004 sales.
The Company continues to experience increases in customer demand, order size and
reorder quantities in this program by smaller "single store" owner/operators of
retail outlets selling the Company's products. It is anticipated that the
overall Calendar 2004 sales volume through the "dealer direct" program may well
equal or exceed the sales volumes generated by wholesale distributors in prior
years.
Results of Operations
Six months ended June 30, 2005 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2004
During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we experienced aggregate net
revenues of approximately $1,855,000, as compared to approximately $850,000
during the comparable period ended June 30, 2004. The second quarter of 2005
profiles comparably to the same quarter of 2004 with net sales of approximately
$685,000 versus $569,000.
During the first quarter of 2004, the Company commenced a direct
solicitation program for its "dealer direct" sales program. As this endeavor has
received a very positive initial response from the qualified retail resellers of
the Company's product, the announcement of this program had a significantly
detrimental impact on the Company's relationship with wholesale distributors
and, accordingly, had a significant negative impact on first quarter 2004 sales.
The Company continues to experience high demand for small arms ammunition
from both the retail channel market and domestic and foreign governments. The
Company has identified certain production issues which has inhibited the full
realization of existing product demands and has begun to take the necessary
steps to add specific machinery to counteract these issues.
We experienced costs of goods sold of approximately $2,885,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to approximately $1,950,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2004.
Through June 30, 2005, and subsequent thereto, we continue to experience
negative trends off of our standard production costs for material and labor due
to difficulties in training new employees, adding new products to our catalog
and lower than expected orders during the first two quarters of 2004 due to
uncontrollable delays in ordering by various U. S. Governmental entities.
Management is of the opinion that the production labor force is stable and able
to maintain a constant standard of quality for future periods. We experience
24
variable costs in the area of material consumption and direct labor. We have
recognized depreciation expense on production equipment of approximately
$382,000 and $348,000, respectively, in the above cost of goods expense totals.
These depreciation levels are anticipated to fluctuate nominally in future
periods based upon either the full depreciation of older equipment and/or the
addition of new equipment to expand capacity. For the six month periods ended
June 30, 2005 and 2004, we generated a negative gross profit of approximately
$(1,030,000), or (55.53%), and approximately $(1,100,000), or (129.36%). Based
on orders received and products shipped during the first six months of 2005 and
our ongoing conversations with various customers, management continues to
believe that the Company should be able to generate a positive gross profit in
future periods..
We experienced nominal research and development expenses of approximately
$1,600 and $6,500, respectively, during the respective six month periods ended
June 30, 2005 and 2004, principally related to refinements in and the expansion
of our product line.
During the first six months of 2005 and 2004, we expended approximately
$112,000 and $254,000, respectively, in advertising and marketing expenses,
principally in developing and promoting our retail dealer direct program. We
anticipate to continue our marketing efforts in this area in future periods;
however, the volume and frequency of our expenditures may fluctuate as
management allocates available capital to these efforts.
Other general and administrative expenses increased by approximately
$37,000 from approximately $595,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 as
compared to approximately $632,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. These
increases are not identifiable by one specific area; however, relate to general
corporate expenses, office and administrative wages and salaries and other
related office overhead. Included in our results of operations for the first six
months of 2005 and 2004 are certain non-cash expenditure charges to operations
of approximately $201,000 and $356,000 for compensation expense related to
common stock issuances at less than "fair value". The calculation of these
charges result from our issuing common stock for either cash or services at
valuations below the closing quoted market price of our common stock and either
the cash received or the value of the services provided to us by third parties.
We recognized a net loss of approximately $(2,014,000) and $(2,344,000) for
the respective six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, or
$(0.03) per share in each respective period.
Six months ended June 30, 2004 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2003.
During the six and three months ended June 30, 2004, we experienced net
revenues of approximately $850,000 and $569,000, respectively, as compared to
approximately $898,000 and $290,000 for the same respective periods of 2003.
During the first quarter of 2004, the Company commenced a direct
solicitation program for its "dealer direct" sales program. As this endeavor has
received a very positive initial response from the qualified retail resellers of
the Company's product, the announcement of this program had a significantly
detrimental impact on the Company's relationship with wholesale distributors
and, accordingly, had a significant negative impact on first quarter 2004 sales.
The Company continues to experience increases in customer demand, order size and
reorder quantities in this program by smaller "single store" owner/operators of
retail outlets selling the Company's products. It is anticipated that the
overall Calendar 2004 sales volume through the "dealer direct" program may well
equal or exceed the sales volumes generated by wholesale distributors in prior
years.
We experienced costs of goods sold of approximately $1,950,218 for the six
months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $1,428,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2003. Included in these amounts are approximately $348,000
and $329,000, respectively, for depreciation expense on manufacturing equipment
and leasehold improvements on our production facility.
25
Management is of the opinion that the production labor force is stable and
able to maintain a constant standard of quality for future periods. We
experience variable costs in the area of material consumption and direct labor.
These depreciation levels are anticipated to remain fairly constant as
compared to the first quarter of 2004. Management has placed on order, and
placed initial deposits on, new manufacturing equipment to automate the product
packaging process and to add new quality assurance equipment on the production
line. These commitments aggregate approximately $260,000, of which the majority
has been expended through June 30, 2004. Management, at this time, does not
anticipate any further significant capital equipment acquisitions. Further, the
addition of the Industrial Plating Enterprise Co. equipment during 2003 allows
us to produce certain components which were previously outsourced to unrelated
third parties.
For the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, we have
generated a negative gross profit of approximately $(1,100,000), or (129.36%),
and approximately $(530,000), or (59.06%).
Our research during the second quarter of 2004 has revealed that the
various governmental agencies which have issued purchase contracts to us either
purchased large quantities during the last 60 days of the Federal Government's
year ended September 30, 2003 or are experiencing transitional purchasing
problems or issues surrounding the reorganization of various agencies into the
Department of Homeland Security, with the related issues of Congressional
appropriations for funding the necessary expenditures of these reorganized
agencies. We continue to anticipate that with the fulfillment of the government
contracts discussed above, continued retail consumer demand for our product
line, lower production costs being experienced from internally generated plating
activities and adequate liquidity, we will be able to generate a positive gross
profit in future periods. Further, based on production cost information
developed during the 4th quarter of 2002 and further refined during 2003,
management has developed a new model for the pricing of its products to its
customers. It is anticipated that this model will allow management to better
manage expense levels, control labor costs and maximize revenue opportunities.
We had minimal costs allocated to research and development expenses during
either of the quarters ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.
During the six months of 2004, we expended approximately $254,000 in
advertising and marketing expenses, principally in developing and promoting our
retail dealer direct program. We anticipate to continue our marketing efforts in
this area in future periods; however, the volume and frequency of our
expenditures may fluctuate as management allocates available capital to these
efforts.
Other general and administrative expenses increased by approximately
$137,000 from approximately $595,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as
compared to approximately $458,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. These
increases are not identifiable by one specific area; however, relate to general
corporate expenses, office and administrative wages and salaries and other
related office overhead.
Included in our results of operations for the first six months of 2004 are
certain non-cash expenditure charges to operations of approximately $356,000 for
compensation expense related to common stock issuances at less than "fair
value". The calculation of these charges result from our issuing common stock
for either cash or services at valuations below the closing quoted market price
of our common stock (as discounted, as applicable) and either the cash received
or the value of the services provided to us by third parties. During Calendar
2003, we experienced a charge of approximately $94,000 for the amortization of
the Beneficial Conversion Feature Discount on our Preferred Stock. This charge
results from the difference between the closing quoted market price on our
common stock and the equivalent converted price of our Mandatory Convertible
Preferred Stock which was sold and converted during 2003.
26
We recognized a net loss of approximately $(2,344,000) and $(1,404,000) for
the respective three month periods ended March 31,2004 and 2003, respectively,
or $(0.03) and $(0.02) per share.
Liquidity And Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2005, December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004, respectively, we
had working capital of approximately $(237,000), $872,000 and $1,296,287. Our
working capital position continues to fluctuate based on our sales volume,
collections on our trade accounts receivable and cash received from the
contractually mandatory exercise of our outstanding warrant related to our
convertible debenture. Further, we anticipate that we have sufficient inventory
levels to support our retail dealer direct program and our existing and
anticipated U. S. Government contracts.
We have used cash in operating activities of approximately $(797,000) and
$(973,000) during the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
We anticipate that our liquidity position will continue to improve as
management is of the opinion that, with the current changes to our production
capacity, the Company will be in a position to better support all existing
orders and accept existing inquiries which have previously been denied due to
the lack of production capacity and liquidity.
During the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, we added
approximately $98,,000 and $338,000 in new equipment. Based on communicated
future demand for our products, we have instituted a program to expand our
production capacity through the addition of additional equipment from the open
market. The equipment ultimately to be added is fully dependent upon the
Company's cash position, the availability of either new equity or debt capital
and the ultimate realization of communicated future product sales demand.
Management is of the opinion that sufficient demand will be present, as
supported by new product development and increased product marketing efforts, to
justify this expansion. However, we may not be able to obtain additional funding
or, that such funding, if available, will be obtained on terms favorable to or
affordable by us.
Convertible Debenture
The Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with La Jolla Cove
Investors, Inc. ("La Jolla") on October 4, 2002 for the sale of (I) $250,000 in
convertible debentures and (ii) warrants to buy 30,000,000 shares of our common
stock. On March 13, 2003 and May 6, 2003, La Jolla advanced an aggregate of
$350,000 to our company which such funding was allocated towards the principal
balance of our convertible debentures.
As of June 30, 2005, the outstanding balance on the convertible debenture
is approximately $241,365 and we have approximately 2,413,650 warrants
outstanding.
The debentures bear interest at 8%, mature on June 30, 2007, and are
convertible into our common stock, at the selling stockholder's option. The
convertible debentures are convertible into the number of our shares of common
stock equal to the principal amount of the debentures being converted multiplied
by 11, less the product of the conversion price multiplied by 10 times the
dollar amount of the debenture. The conversion price for the convertible
debentures is the lesser of (I) $1.00 or (ii) seventy six percent of the average
of the five lowest volume weighted average prices during the twenty (20) trading
days prior to the conversion. Accordingly, there is in fact no limit on the
number of shares into which the debenture may be converted. However, in the
event that our market price is less than $.30, we will have the option to prepay
27
the debenture at 125% rather than have the debenture converted. In addition, the
selling stockholder is obligated to exercise the warrant concurrently with the
submission of a conversion notice by the selling stockholder. As of June 30,
2005, the warrant is exercisable into 2,413,650 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $1.00 per share.
In December 2004, we entered into an addendum to the convertible debenture
and warrant whereby the Company agreed to the following:
* the discount multiplier was reduced from eighty percent to seventy six
percent;
* within five business days after this registration statement being
declared effective, La Jolla is required to submit a debenture
conversion in the amount of $10,000 and every ten business days
thereafter La Jolla shall submit three additional debenture conversion
in the amount of $10,000 each;
* within five business days after this registration statement being
declared effective, La Jolla shall wire $400,000 to us as a prepayment
towards the exercise of its warrant; and
* immediately following the sale of all shares held by La Jolla in
connection with the debenture conversions in the aggregate amount of
$40,000, La Jolla shall wire $275,000 to us as a prepayment towards
the exercise of its warrant and shall submit a debenture conversion in
the amount of $6,250 on the first business day of each month until the
debenture is no longer outstanding.
LaJolla has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to convert or
exercise its warrants and receive shares of our common stock such that the
number of shares of common stock held by them and their affiliates after such
conversion or exercise does exceed 4.9% of the then issued and outstanding
shares of common stock.
Due to the contractually agreed mandatory conversion of this Debenture, the
Company has reflected this transaction in its balance sheet as a "mezzanine"
level debt obligation on its balance sheet, between "Total Liabilities" and
"Stockholders' Equity". Upon the respective mandatory conversion, the Company
will relieve the respective portion of the Debenture and the any related
accrued, but unpaid interest, and credit this amount to the respective "common
stock" and "additional paid-in capital" accounts in the stockholder's equity
section for the par value and excess amount over the par value of the respective
shares issued.
As the warrant is non-detachable from the Debenture and requires
simultaneous exercise upon conversion of the Debenture, no value was assigned to
the issued warrant. Upon exercise of the warrant, the Company will record the
issuance of the underlying shares as a new issuance of common stock on the date
of each respective exercise.
On various dates through December 31, 2003, the Debenture Holder elected to
convert an aggregate $208,635, through 24 separate transactions, in outstanding
Debenture principal into restricted, unregistered common stock. This election
caused the Company to issue 4,561,753 shares of restricted, unregistered common
stock to the Debenture Holder. Additionally, pursuant to the contract terms, the
Debenture Holder concurrently exercised a portion of the outstanding Warrant to
purchase 2,086,350 shares of the Company's restricted, unregistered common stock
for gross proceeds of $2,086,350.
On various dates between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2004, the
Debenture Holder elected to convert an aggregate $150,000, through 6 separate
transactions, in outstanding Debenture principal into registered common stock.
This election caused the Company to issue 4,900,000 shares of common stock to
the Debenture Holder. Additionally, pursuant to the contract terms, the
28
Debenture Holder concurrently exercised a portion of the outstanding Warrant to
purchase 1,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock for gross proceeds of
$1,500,000. As of December 31, 2004, an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the
Company's common stock have been issued by the Company and are being held in
escrow by the Company's counsel pending receipt of the final $150,000 from the
Debenture Holder.
Between January 1, 2005 and June 30, 2005, the Debenture Holder elected to
convert an aggregate $25,000, through a separate transactions, in outstanding
Debenture principal into registered common stock. This election caused the
Company to issue 750,000 shares of common stock to the Debenture Holder.
Additionally, pursuant to the contract terms, the Debenture Holder concurrently
exercised a portion of the outstanding Warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of the
Company's common stock for gross proceeds of $250,000.
On May 6, 2005 and June 21, 2005, the Company authorized the issuance of an
aggregate 14,000,000 shares into the A designated escrow account for the purpose
of facilitating future conversions of the outstanding Debenture into common
stock in conjunction with the exercise of the outstanding Warrants. Subsequent
to June 30, 2005, the Debenture Holder, in 4 separate transactions, was issued
an aggregate 5,824,758 shares for the conversion of an aggregate $40,000 in
Convertible Debenture and the exercise of 400,000 Warrants at an aggregate price
of $400,000.
ITEM 3 - Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we
conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term
is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (Exchange Act), for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. As of the
end of the period covered by this report, management, including the chief
executive officer and chief financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of the
design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon and
as of the date of that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the disclosure
controls and procedures were effective
(b) Changes in Internal Controls
There were no significant changes (including corrective actions with regard
to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls
over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2005
that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.
(c) Findings
In light of the restatements to the financial statements disclosed above,
caused, in part, by a failure in the Company's internal control over financing
reporting due to the limitations in the Company's accounting resources to
identify and react in a timely manner to non-routine, complex and/or
transactions originated by other parties on the Company's behalf, as well as
gaining an adequate understanding of the disclosure requirements relating to
these types of transactions, we feel that the existing controls and procedures
were and remain effective. Because of said controls, which resulted in the
review, discovery and disclosure by amendment of filings to adequately disclose
required information, management also concludes that by requiring supplemental
reviews of financing transactions that its existing controls and procedures will
be more effective.
