                               September 30, 2002


1.   General

     The interim financial  statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements
for  reporting  on Form 10-QSB.  The  December  31, 2001 balance  sheet data was
derived from audited  financial  statements but does not include all disclosures
required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  The interim  financial
statements and notes thereto  should be read in  conjunction  with the financial
statements  and notes  included in the Company's  Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December  31,  2001.  In  the  opinion  of  management,  the  interim  financial
statements  reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a
fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

Material Changes in Result of Operations

     During the three months and nine months ended  September 30, 2002 and 2001,
the Company had no operations other than the search for a business to acquire or
with which to combine.

     The  Company  reported  no  revenues  for either of the three or nine month
periods  ended  September 30, 2002 or 2001.  The Company did incur  expenses for
legal and  accounting  services  and filings fees  totaling  $7,785 in the three
months and nine months  ended  September  30,  2001.  For the three months ended
September  30,  2002,  the  Company  incurred  expenses  of $2,500 for legal and
accounting  services  and filing fees and $7,500 for such  expenses for the nine
months ended September 30, 2002.

Material Changes in Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

     At  September  30,  2002 the  Company  had no current  assets  and  current
liabilities of $10,000 as compared to no current assets and current  liabilities
of $2,500 at December 31, 2001.

     Although the Company has no liquidity,  it believes that it will be able to
find a suitable Company with which to merge.
