Western Financial Corporation
(A Development Stage Company)



      We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheets of Western
Financial  Corporation (a development stage company) as  of  June
30,  2000  and  December 31, 1999, and the related statements  of
operations  for  the three and six month periods ended  June  30,
2000  and  1999, and cash flows for the six month  periods  ended
June  30,  2000  and  1999.  These financial statements  are  the
responsibility of the Company's management.

      We  conducted  our  review  in  accordance  with  standards
established  by  the  American  Institute  of  Certified   Public
Accountants.  A review of interim financial information  consists
principally  of applying analytical procedures to financial  data
and  making  inquiries of persons responsible for  financial  and
accounting  matters.  It is substantially less in scope  than  an
audit  conducted  in accordance with generally accepted  auditing
standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion
regarding the financial statement taken as a whole.  Accordingly,
we do not express such an opinion.

      Based  on  our  review, we are not aware  of  any  material
modifications  that should be made to the accompanying  financial
statements  for them to be in conformity with generally  accepted
accounting principles.

                              Respectfully submitted



                              /s/ Robison, Hill & Co.

                  WESTERN FINANCIAL CORPORATION
                  (A Development Stage Company)
                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999


NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
--------------------------------------------------------------------

      This  summary of accounting policies for Western  Financial
Corporation is presented to assist in understanding the Company's
financial   statements.   The  accounting  policies  conform   to
generally   accepted   accounting  principles   and   have   been
consistently   applied  in  the  preparation  of  the   financial
statements.

      The unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2000  and
for  the  three and six months then ended reflect, in the opinion
of   management,  all  adjustments  (which  include  only  normal
recurring  adjustments) necessary to fairly state  the  financial
position and results of operations for the three and six  months.
Operating   results  for  interim  periods  are  not  necessarily
indicative of the results which can be expected for full years.

Organization and Basis of Presentation
--------------------------------------

      The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of
Nevada  on  September 16, 1997.  The Company ceased all operating
activities  during the period from September 16, 1997 to  October
20, 1999 and was considered dormant.  Since October 20, 1999, the
Company  is  in  the  development stage, and  has  not  commenced
planned principal operations.

Nature of Business
------------------

     The Company has no products or services as of June 30, 2000.
The  Company  was  organized  as a  vehicle  to  seek  merger  or
acquisition candidates.  The Company intends to acquire interests
in  various  business  opportunities, which  in  the  opinion  of
management will provide a profit to the Company.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------

      For  purposes of the statement of cash flows,  the  Company
considers  all  highly liquid debt instruments purchased  with  a
maturity  of three months or less to be cash equivalents  to  the
extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.

Pervasiveness of Estimates
--------------------------

      The  preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally  accepted accounting principles required 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.

Loss per Share
--------------

      The  reconciliations of the numerators and denominators  of
the basic loss per share computations are as follows:

                                    =========       =========     =========

                                    For the six months ended June 30, 1999
                                    --------------------------------------
Basic & Diluted Loss Per Share
Loss to common shareholders         $       -       1,000,000     $       -
                                    =========       =========     =========


      The  effect  of  outstanding stock  equivalents  are  anti-
dilutive for June 30, 2000 and 1999 and are thus not considered.

Reclassification
----------------

      Certain  reclassifications  have  been  made  in  the  1999
financial   statements  to  conform  with  the  June   30,   2000
presentation.

NOTE 2 - INCOME TAXES
---------------------

      As  of June 30, 2000, the Company has a net operating  loss
carryforward  for income tax reporting purposes of  approximately
$3,000  that may be offset against future taxable income  through
2011.  Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to  be
offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in
ownership  occurs.   Therefore, the amount  available  to  offset
future  taxable income may be limited.  No tax benefit  has  been
reported  in  the  financial  statements,  because  the   Company
believes there is a 50% or greater change the carry-forwards will
expire  unused.  Accordingly, the potential tax benefits  of  the
loss  carry-forwards are offset by a valuation allowance  of  the
same amount.

NOTE 3 - DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY
----------------------------------

      The  Company has not begun principal operations and  as  is
common  with  a  development stage company, the Company  has  had
recurring losses during its development stage.

                           (Continued)

NOTE 4 - COMMITMENTS
--------------------

      As of June 30, 2000 all activities of the Company have been
conducted  by  corporate  officers from  either  their  homes  or
business offices.  Currently, there are no outstanding debts owed
by  the Company for the use of these facilities and there are  no
commitments for future use of the facilities.

NOTE 5 - STOCK SPLIT
--------------------

      On October 20, 1999 the Board of Directors authorized 1,000
to  1  stock  split, changed the authorized number of  shares  to
100,000,000  shares and the par value to $.001 for the  Company's
common  stock.   As  a result of the split, 999,000  shares  were
issued.   All references in the accompanying financial statements
to the number of common shares and per-share amounts for 1999 and
1998 have been restated to reflect the stock split.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

This Quarterly Report contains certain forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of  1933,
as  amended,  and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange  Act  of
1934,  as  amended, which are intended to be covered by the  safe
harbors  created  thereby.   Investors  are  cautioned  that  all
