UNIVERSAL ICE BLAST, INC.

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 3004

(Unaudited)



Note 1 - Basis of Presentation of Unaudited Interim Financial Information



The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Universal Ice Blast, Inc. (together with its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Company)  have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and with instructions to Form 10-QSB pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the Company's December 31, 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.



In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 are not necessarily representative of operating results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.



The Company has developed a line of machines that utilize ice (plain H\\2\\O) as a blast cleaning/stripping medium. The Company's patented Ice Blast technology has a wide range of potential applications in precision cleaning, industrial cleaning and environmental cleaning.  The Company rents ice-blasting equipment and performs ice-blasting services for customers throughout the United States, and in 2004 began licensing distribution and manufacturing rights of Ice Blast technology and know-how. The Company markets and sells ice-blasting equipment to North America, Europe Asia and Australia.



The Companys consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.  Since inception in 1995, the Company has accumulated losses aggregating approximately $7,679,000.  The Company had a working capital deficit of $927,000 and a stockholders deficit of $1,155,000 at March 31, 2004.



The Company is actively pursuing marketing arrangements for its products in the precision, environmental and industrial cleaning markets.  The Company has changed its business strategy from that of manufacturer of ice blast systems to that of licensor, thereby licensing the rights to build and sell ice blast products to others, including competitors of the Company.  The result of this change in the business model is to reduce the requirement for working capital and improve cash flows and profitability through reduction of administrative, indirect manufacturing costs and marketing costs.



The Companys future success is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations and generate cash from operating activities and upon obtaining additional financing.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations or through the sale of additional shares of common stock or from additional borrowings.  In the event the Company is unable to raise additional capital or to obtain it on acceptable terms or in sufficient amounts, the impact would have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations and its ability to continue in existence.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.



Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Companys financial statements.  The financial statements and notes are representations of the Companys management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity.  These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.  Critical accounting policies include revenue recognition, accounting for research and development costs, and accounting for stock compensation expense, as well as preparation of the financial statements on a going concern basis.



Use of Estimates - The preparation of the 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 amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition - Revenue from the sale of stand alone Ice Blast machines and accessories to end users and distributors is recognized at the time goods are shipped or when title passes. Where customers require installation services and operational acceptance, shipment is FOB destination and revenue is recognized upon acceptance by the customer. Revenue from services is recognized as the services are provided. Revenue from the rental of Ice Blast machines is recognized over the rental period based on the terms of the rental agreements.



Research and Development Costs - Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. These costs primarily consist of salaries, development materials, consultant fees, supplies and related costs of personnel directly involved in the research and development of new technology.



Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.



Stock-Based Compensation  The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Options Issued to Employees, and related interpretations including Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation.  The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees using the intrinsic value method, whereby compensation cost is recognized when the exercise price at the date of grant is less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock. The Company discloses the proforma effect of compensation cost based on the fair value method for determining compensation cost. The value of stock-based compensation awarded to non-employees is determined using the fair value method. Compensation cost is recognized over the service or vesting period.  If the compensation cost for stock options granted to employees had been determined using the fair value method, the proforma net loss and proforma net loss per share would not have differed from amounts reported.

Computation of Net Loss per Share - Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net earnings available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net earnings for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.  Common equivalent shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, and warrants and have been excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculations, as their effect is anti-dilutive.  Shares omitted from the computation of net loss per share due to their anti-dilutive effect approximated 822,000 and 7,943,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.  A summary of the shares used to compute net loss per share is as follows:

|                                               |                            | Three Months Ended March 31,

Segment Information - Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," establishes annual and interim reporting standards for an enterprises operating segments and related disclosures about its products, services, geographic areas and major customers.  The Company has determined that it operates in one segment.  The Company attributes sales to customers in individual foreign countries based on the location where the product was shipped.  Sales for the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 included approximately $103,000 and $17,000, respectively, to customers located outside the United States.



Income taxes  No provision or benefit for income taxes has been recorded for periods presented due to losses incurred.  A valuation allowance has been recorded against deferred tax assets primarily relating to operating loss carryforwards, as it has not been determined that it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be realized.

Note 3 Equipment



During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company sold four Ice Blast machines previously included in equipment in the Companys consolidated balance sheet.  The cost of $175,348 and accumulated depreciation of $135,937 having a net book value for these machines of $39,411, which was removed from equipment accounts and recognized as cost of sales for machines sold.



Note 4 - Common Stock and Stock Options



During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company issued 4,290,000 shares of common stock to four employees for services received.  The Company computed the number of common shares issued in these transactions based on the fair value of services received and the estimated fair value of the Companys common stock on the dates of issuance averaged $0.016.  These shares are subject to a subsequent S-8 registration by the Company. The Company is also correcting the prior years S-8 registration for clerical errors which resulted in approximately 10,000,000 shares being issued but not effectively registered.



The Company has a stock option plan under which employees, consultants and others may be awarded incentive or non-statutory stock options. The plan authorizes the grant of options for the purchase of up to 6 million shares of common stock. At December 31, 2003, options outstanding, all of which were non-statutory, totaled 821,667, substantially all of which were exercisable.   No options have been granted during 2004.



Note 5  Shareholder Notes Receivable



During 2001, the Companys board of directors approved and the Company made loans to officers and employees to assist them in purchasing the Companys common stock.  These loans bear interest at an annual rate of 6.5% and are collateralized by a pledge of the purchased shares of Company common stock.  In connection with these notes, the Company retained as collateral a security interest in 7.85 million shares of common stock issued.  The principal is repayable five years from the date of the loans, with interest only payments required annually on or before December 31 of each year.  Shareholder notes receivable are presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as a reduction in stockholders equity.



Effective March 31, 2004, the Company cancelled $141,550 of shareholders notes receivable, and related accrued interest income, from six employees or former employees in consideration for the return of the underlying 950,000 shares of Company common stock in which the Company had a security interest.



The Company has a $514,050 note receivable from its former President, which was collateralized by the Company having an interest in the 3,450,000 shares purchased with the note receivable.  Management of the Company became aware that the underlying stock had been sold. The note receivable was transferred to other assets from the stockholders deficit section of the consolidated balance sheet as it is no longer collateralized by Company common stock.  The Company is pursuing collection of the note receivable and anticipates that a settlement arrangement will be agreed to in 2004, and that such agreement will include, among other things, an offset of advances payable and deferred officers compensation.  Included in other assets at March 31, 2004, are notes receivable of $514,050 and interest receivable of approximately $25,000, net of advances payable of approximately $70,000 and deferred officer compensation of $121,500, together having a total of approximately $348,000, before reduction for impairment.  On the basis of forecast cash flows considered probable of collection of this note receivable, the Company recorded a provision for impairment of notes receivable of approximately $358,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004.



Note 6  License Agreement



In January 2004, the Company entered into a five-year Marketing/Integration license agreement with a machine building company located on Ontario, Canada to exclusively market the Companys products in Ontario to its customers and to utilize the Companys technology and know-how to integrate the Companys products with other products they offer.  The Company received $55,000 upon execution of the agreement and the agreement requires the Licensee to purchase an Ice Blast machine as part of the License Fee. In addition, the agreement requires the licensee to make certain minimum future annual purchases of Ice Blast products.  Pursuant to terms of the agreement, License Fees are subject to return in the event of early termination on a prorated basis.  Accordingly, amounts received for License Fees, which totaled $55,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004, are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the five year term.

Note 7  Commitments and Contingencies



In October, 2002, a lawsuit was brought against the Company by Systems Interface, Inc. (Systems Interface) which is one of the Companys vendors, in King County Superior Court.  Systems Interface sought judgment for amounts payable by the Company for goods and services the plaintiff provided to the Company in 2001.  A judgment was entered against the Company in the amount of $75,454.  The Company entered into an agreement with the plaintiff under which the judgment is paid in monthly installments.  At December 31, 2003, the Company owed approximately $12,300 to this vendor, which was paid during the three months ended March 31, 2004.



In August of 2003 a lawsuit was brought against the Company and its founders in the Superior Court of Washington for King County by one of its Note holders for amounts due of $38,000 and for the 144 restrictions to be released on 575,000 shares that was previously issued to Mr. Cox so as to allow these shares to become freely tradeable.  In the first quarter of 2004, a judgment was entered against the Company for $38,000, due to the Note Holder. The Company has reached a settlement plan with the Note Holder wherein the obligation should be repaid by December 2004.  The unregistered shares issue is subject to an ongoing lawsuit.



Other vendors of the Company have threatened to bring legal action and some have filed lawsuits for payment of overdue amounts, in addition to the Systems Interface lawsuit.  The company has settled some of these suits, worked out payment plans, or is negotiating payment plans.  Of the amounts settled, all were settled for the liability previously recorded by the Company.  The Company is working to resolve these issues.  In the opinion of management, all reasonable amounts relating to these past due and disputed liabilities have been accrued in the Companys March 31, 2004 consolidated financial statements.



Note 8  Subsequent Events



Subsequent to March 31, 2004, the Company issued 600,000 shares of its common stock to a consultant  for services.  Shares were considered to have an estimated fair value per share of $0.029.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Companys interim consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB (the Quarterly Report) and with the Companys consolidated annual financial statements and managements discussion and analysis included in the Companys December 31, 2003 Annual report on Form 10-KSB (the Annual Report).



Cautionary Statement - Certain forward-looking statements contained herein regarding the Company's business and prospects are based upon numerous assumptions about future conditions, which may ultimately prove to be inaccurate and actual events, and results may materially differ from anticipated results described in such statements. The Company's ability to achieve such results is subject to certain risks and uncertainties, such as the impact of competition and pricing, changing market conditions, general economic conditions, the Companys history of losses and need for additional capital and other risks. Forward-looking statements are identified by words such as "believe", "anticipate", "expect", "intend", "plan", "will", "may", "confident" and other similar expressions. Any forward-looking statements contained herein represent the Company's judgment as of the date hereof. The Company disclaims, however, any intent or obligation to update such forward-looking statements. As a result, the reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements contained herein.



Overview - The Company reports its revenues as sales of machines and accessories, or product sales, and as services and rental income. Services and rental income includes primarily cleaning services and income from the renting of equipment to customers who have not yet purchased Company equipment. Typically, the Company performs services at customer locations and receives rental income for equipment use and fees for time incurred. As the cost of monthly rental is significantly less than the purchase price of a machine, rentals have a much lower customer pricing hurdle to overcome and accordingly may be closed with a relatively higher frequency. Further, follow-on rentals are similarly more common and provide the basis for expectation of future revenues from the same customers. The Company has customers in industries including  precision cleaning (automotive  deburring applications), environmental cleaning (lead paint or asbestos removal), and industrial cleaning (marine cleaning), which are located in various locations throughout the United States (including New York, Ohio, Hawaii and Washington) and the world (including Canada, Holland, Japan and Australia).



The Company reports its costs and expenses as cost of revenues, research and development, selling and marketing, and general and administrative. Research and development costs consist primarily of compensation and related costs of personnel engaged in product design and enhancements and patent related costs. Selling and marketing costs relate to product sales and promotion and costs associated with responding to requests for proposals, including on-site demonstrations. General and administrative costs are comprised primarily of compensation and related expenses, occupancy and professional, legal, and accounting fees.



The Company has changed its business model during 2004 to a licensing strategy in the form of Marketing/Integration licenses and Manufacturing Licenses. The Company entered into five-year Market/Integration license agreement in January 2004 with a machine building company located in Ontario Canada to exclusively market the Company's products in Ontario to its customers and to utilize the Company's technology and know-how to integrate the Company's products with other products they offer.  The Company received approximately $55,000 upon execution of the agreement and is to receive an additional $70,000 upon the sale of an ice blast machine. In addition, the agreement requires the company to make certain minimum future annual purchases of Ice Blast products. The benefits of licensing to marketing/integrators, includes relying on their core competency of machine building and total system integration with all automotive companies and their marketing and other relationships with these clients. The benefits of obtaining licensees to manufacture the Companys proprietary equipment are a reduction in cost and improvement in build quality. It is expected that the benefits will improve margins and provide a faster sales cycle.

Critical Accounting Policies -The Companys financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by managements application of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies for Universal Ice Blast include revenue recognition, accounting for research and development costs, and accounting for stock compensation expense, as well as the preparation of the financial statements on a going concern basis.

Revenue Recognition - Revenue from the sale of stand alone Ice Blast machines and accessories to end users and distributors are shipped FOB shipping point at which time the title passes and revenue is recognized. Where customers require installation services and operational acceptance, shipment is FOB destination and revenue is recognized upon acceptance by the customer. Revenue from services is recognized as the services are provided. Revenue from the rental of Ice Blast machines is recognized over the rental period based on the terms of the rental agreements.

Research and Development Costs - Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. These costs primarily consist of salaries, development materials, supplies and related costs of personnel directly involved in the research and development of new technology.



Stock-Based Compensation - The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Options Issued to Employees, and related interpretations including Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation." The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees using the intrinsic value method, whereby compensation cost is recognized when the exercise price at the date of grant is less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock. The Company discloses the proforma effect of compensation cost based on the fair value method for determining compensation cost. The value of stock-based compensation awarded to non-employees is determined using the fair value method. Compensation cost is recognized over the service or vesting period.



Results of Operations



Three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to three months ended March 31, 2003



During the three months ended March 31, 2004, revenues increased to $147,000 as compared to $33,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003. First quarter 2004 sales of machines and accessories increased to $120,000 for four machines from $8,000 during the comparable prior year period when no machines were sold.  Service and rental income remained approximately the same with $24,000 and $25,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.



Gross profit increased to $92,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $5,000 during the comparable prior year period.   As a percent of sales, gross profit increased to 62% during the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to 16% during the comparable period of 2003. Gross profits from sales of machines and accessories was $77,000 or 64% of revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $3,499 or 44%, due primarily to the fact that four machines were sold during the 2004 period and no machines were sold during the 2003 period. Gross profits from services and rental income increased to $12,000 or 48% of revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $2,000 or 8% during comparable period of 2003.



Professional fees decreased to $40,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $713,000 for the comparative prior year period.  Substantially all of 2003 expense consisted of stock-based compensation expense recorded in connection with issuances of equity securities to financial advisors.  No such expenses have been incurred during 2004.



For the three months ended March 31, 2004, general and administrative expense decreased 9% to $204,000 from $224,000 during the comparable period of 2003, primarily due to reduced compensation costs.



Research and development expenses decreased 44% to $18,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $41,000 during the comparable period of 2003, primarily the result of reduced compensation costs in 2004 as compared to 2003 when Ford related research and development activities were ongoing.



Selling and marketing expenses decreased to $3,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $39,000 for the comparable 2003 period.  The decrease in selling and marketing expenses is attributable primarily to reduction in travel related to work with Ford in 2003.

The Companys operating losses decreased to $174,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $1,012,000 for the comparable 2003 period.  The decrease was primarily the result of the increase in gross profit of $86,000 and decrease in professional fees of $673,000. Management anticipates incurring additional future operating losses through the remainder of 2004.



During the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the Company recorded interest income in the amount of $19,000 in connection with Shareholder notes receivable. The Company has since ceased accruing interest income on these notes receivable.



The Company has a $514,050 note receivable from its former President, which was collateralized by the Company having an interest in the 3,450,000 shares purchased with the note receivable.  Management of the Company became aware that the underlying stock had been sold. The Company is pursuing collection of the note receivable and anticipates that a settlement arrangement will be agreed to in 2004, and that such agreement will include, among other things, an offset of advances payable and deferred officers compensation.  Included in other assets at March 31, 2004, are notes receivable of $514,050 and interest receivable of approximately $25,000, net of advances payable of approximately $70,000 and deferred officer compensation of $121,500, together having a total of approximately $348,000, before reduction for impairment.  On the basis of forecast cash flows considered probable of collection of this note receivable, the Company recorded a provision for impairment of notes receivable of approximately $358,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004.

Interest expense decreased to $8,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $18,000 for the comparable prior year period. This decrease is primarily the result of repayments on debt and leases.



Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources



The Companys working capital deficit was $ 927,000 and its stockholders deficit was $ 1,155,000 at March 31, 2004.  As of March 31, 2004, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $348. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, operating activities provided cash of $2,000 as compared using cash of $205,000 during the comparative 2003 period. Cash used by operating activities resulted primarily from the Company's net loss reduced by working capital movements, as well as depreciation, amortization and other non- cash charges, such as the issuance of stock in exchange for goods and services. The Company used cash of $24,000 for capital expenditures during the three months ended March 31, 2003 as compared to no capital expenditures for 2004. The Company has no significant commitments for future purchases of capital assets.



Financing activities used cash of $37,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to providing cash of $229,000 during the comparative period of 2003. Cash has been provided primarily from sale of Company Common Stock and the issuance of notes payable to lenders. Sales of Common Stock provided $0 and $249,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Repayments on notes payable for 2004 was $29,000 and $10,000 in 2003. Payments on capital lease obligations used cash of $8,000 and $12,000 in 2004 and 2003, respectively. Long-term debt repayments were $0 and $10,000 in 2004 as compared to 2003. The Company used to borrow and repay, on a revolving basis, cash advances from its two founders and officers. Repayments were $28,000 during 2003.



The Company is actively pursuing marketing arrangements for their products in the precision, environmental and industrial cleaning markets. The Company intends to change its commercial arrangements from that of manufacturer of ice blast systems to that of licensor, licensing the rights to build and sell Ice Blast products to others, including competitors of the Company. Additionally, the Companys business plans to include long-term rental income into the industrial markets, would reduce the reliance on the automotive markets. The intended result of this change in business model is to reduce the requirement for working capital and improve cash flows and profitability through reduction of administrative and selling costs.



The Company's future existence is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations and generate cash from operating activities, and upon obtaining additional financing. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations or through the sale of additional shares of common stock or additional borrowings.

The revised business strategies reduces the cash demands that was required in prior years, however, it is still necessary that the Company raises sufficient capital to fund working capital needs, debt service and the cash flow deficits expected to be generated by future operating losses. Current cash balances, the realization of accounts receivable, cash received from the sale of common stock, and cash received from licensees upon entering into license agreements will not be sufficient to fund the Company's current business plan beyond the second quarter 2004.  Consequently, the Company is currently seeking convertible debt and/or additional equity financing in the aggregate amount of at least $300,000, to fund the Company's immediate liquidity needs. Management is currently negotiating with existing shareholders as well as other individuals and organizations in order to obtain the working capital necessary to meet both current and future obligations and commitments. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital on satisfactory terms or at all. In the event that the Company is unable to obtain such additional capital or to obtain it on acceptable terms or in sufficient amounts, the impact thereof would have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, operating results and financial condition as well as its ability to service debt requirements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.



As disclosed in an explanatory paragraph in the Report of Independent Accountants on the Company's consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report, the foregoing liquidity and financial conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
