                                     PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

         (a)      Introduction

     Aden Enterprises,  Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on May 22, 1986, and was
reincorporated  in  California  effective  August 12,  1988.  Unless the context
otherwise requires, the term "Company" means Aden Enterprises, Inc. The original
business  purpose  of  the  Company  and  the   circumstances   surrounding  its
reincorporation are more fully described in the Registration Statement.

     On  January  31,  1995,  a group of  investors  based in  Omaha,  Nebraska,
acquired  from  the  Company's  principal  shareholder  19.8%  of the  Company's
outstanding  Common  Stock and  options to acquire an  additional  21.8% of such
Common  Stock  (which  options  were  not   exercised).   Concurrent  with  this
transaction,  the selling shareholder (being the sole director of the Company at
the time)  designated  members of this group of  investors  as  directors of the
Company,  who thereupon assumed control of the Company.  Since then, the Company
has undertaken to locate and negotiate with selected  business  entities for the
purpose of acquiring, or entering into business combinations,  with the selected
businesses.  As of the end of the fiscal year to which this report pertains, the
Company has not consummated any such acquisitions or business combinations. As a
consequence, the Company has not engaged in any material business operations.

     The Company incorporates by this reference the information set forth in its
report under Form 8-K dated June 21, 1996.

         (b)      Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

         Forward-looking and Cautionary Statements: Certain statements contained
in this report may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 ("Reform Act"). The Company
may also  make  forward-looking  statements  in  other  reports  filed  with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission,  in materials delivered to stockholders and
in press releases. In addition,  the Company's  representatives may from time to
time make oral forward-looking  statements.  Forward-looking  statements provide
current  expectations of future events based on certain  assumptions and include
any statement  that does not directly  relate to any historical or current fact.
Words  such as  "anticipates,"  "believes,  "expects,"  "estimates,"  "intends,"
"plans," "projects," and similar expressions,  may identify such forward-looking
statements.

         The  Company's  stock  price  is also  affected  by a  number  of other
factors,  including quarterly variations in results, the competitive  landscape,
general  economic and market  conditions  and estimates and  projections  by the
investment  community.  As  a  result,  like  other  technology  companies,  the
Company's stock price is subject to significant volatility.

         Much of the future  success  of the  Company  depends on the  continued
service and availability of skilled personnel,  including  technical,  marketing
and  staff  positions.  Experienced  personnel  in  the  information  technology
industry are in high demand and competition for their talents is intense.  There
can be no  assurance  that the Company will be able to  successfully  retain and
attract the key personnel it needs.

     The Company expects to make  acquisitions or enter into alliances from time
to time.  Acquisitions and alliances  present  significant  challenges and risks
relating to the  integration of the business into the Company,  and there can be
no  assurances  that  the  Company  will  manage   acquisitions   and  alliances
successfully.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

         As of December 31, 1999, the Company operated at three offices,  all of
which are leased. The Company owns no real property at this time.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     During the fiscal  year ended  April 30,  1997,  the Company was a party to
certain legal proceedings as set forth at Note 10 to the Financial Statements.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         No matters  were  submitted to a  shareholder  vote from April 30, 1996
through April 30, 1997.

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
         MATTERS.

         (a)      Market Information.

     The Company's original articles of incorporation authorized the issuance of
100,000,000  shares of Common  Stock.  On February  25,  2000,  the  articles of
incorporation  were amended to authorize the issuance of  750,000,000  shares of
common stock.

     Until  July 2,  1999,  the  Company's  Common  Stock was  quoted on the OTC
Bulletin Board (trading symbol "ADEN")  operated by the National  Association of
Securities  Dealers.  As of that date, the Company's Common Stock was ineligible
for further  quotation  on the OTC  Bulletin  Board  because the Company was not
current in its reports with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC").  Since July 2, 1999, the Company's  Common Stock has been quoted on
the so-called "pink sheets" maintained by the National Quotation Bureau.  During
the fiscal year ended April 30,  1997,  there was no  signficant  trading of the
Company's Common Stock.

         (b)      Holders.

     As of July 20, 2000, the Company's  Common Stock was held by  approximately
302 holders.

<PAGE>

         (c)      Dividends.

         The  Company has never paid cash  dividends  on its Common  Stock,  and
anticipates that it will continue to retain its earnings, if any, to finance the
growth of its business.

         (d)      Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

     During the fiscal year ended  April 30,  1997,  the  Company  issued in the
aggregated  8,687,087 shares of its Common Stock which were not registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the  "Securities  Act"), as set forth in
the Statement of  Stockholders'  Equity.  The issuance of  securities  described
above in this paragraph (d) of Item 5 were deemed exempt from registration under
the  Securities  Act in  reliance  on  Section  4 (2) of the  Securities  Act as
transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. Such securities are
subject to the restrictions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

<PAGE>



ITEM 6.  SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

     During the five years ended April 30, 1997, the Company did not conduct any
material  operations.  The  Company  does  not  believe,   therefore,  that  any
meaningful financial information can be provided in response to this item.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     During the five years ended April 30, 1997, the Company did not conduct any
material  operations.  The  Company  does  not  believe,   therefore,  that  any
meaningful financial information can be provided in response to this item.

                        INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT
                        ----------------------------

Board of Directors
Aden Enterprises, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)

I have audited the  accompanying  balance sheets of Aden  Enterprises,  Inc., (A
Development  Stage  Company)  as of April  30,  1997 and 1996,  and the  related
statements  of  operations,  stockholders'  equity  and cash flows for the years
ended  April  30,  1997,  1996  and 1995 and for the  period  from May 28,  1986
(inception) to April 30, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on my audit.

I conducted my audit in accordance with generally  accepted auditing  standards.
Those standards  require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain  reasonable
assurance   about  whether  the  financial   statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, financial position of Aden Enterprises, Inc., as of April 30,
1997 and 1996,  and the  results  of its  operations  and its cash flows for the
years ending April 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 and from May 28, 1986  (inception) to
April 30, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying  financial  statements have been prepared  assuming the Company
will  continue as a going  concern.  As  discussed  in Note #3 to the  financial
statements,  the Company has an accumulated  deficit and a negative net worth at
April 30,  1997.  These  factors  raise  substantial  doubt about the  Company's
ability to continue as a going  concern.  Management's  plans in regard to these
matters are also  discussed in Note #3. The financial  statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                       Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE #1 - Corporate History
---------------------------

Organization of Business

The Company was organized on May 22, 1986 under the laws of the state of
Nevada.  During August 1988, the Company merged with Aden Enterprises,
Inc., a California Corporation, changing the Company's corporate domicile
to the state of California.

The Company has not commenced planned principal operations and is
considered to be a development stage enterprise.  The Company's principal
business activity is investing in all forms of investments or lawful
business activities.

NOTE #2 - Significant Accounting Policies
-----------------------------------------

A.   The Company uses the accrual method of accounting.
B.   Revenues and directly related expenses are recognized in the period
     when the services are performed for the customer.
C.   The Company considers all short term, highly liquid investments that
     are readily convertible, within three months, to known amounts as cash
     equivalents.  The Company currently has no cash equivalents.
D.   Basic Earnings Per Share amounts are based on the weighted average
     number of shares outstanding at the dates of the financial statements.
     Fully Diluted Earnings Per Shares shall be shown on stock options and
     other convertible issues that may be exercised within ten years of the
     financial statement dates.
E.   Inventories:   Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined
     by the FIFO method or market.
F.   Depreciation:   The cost of property and equipment is depreciated over
     the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The cost of
     leasehold improvements is depreciated (amortized) over the lesser of
     the length of the related assets or the estimated lives of the assets.
      Depreciation is computed on the straight line method for reporting
     purposes and for tax purposes.
I.   Estimates:   The preparation of the financial statements in conformity
     with generally accepted accounting principles 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.

NOTE #3 - Going Concern
-----------------------

The accompanying financial statements of Aden Enterprises, Inc., have been
prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates profitable operations
and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
There are uncertainties that raise substantial doubt about the ability of
the Company to continue as a going concern, as shown in the statements of
operations.  In addition the Company has no assets with which to conduct
profitable operations and has an inordinately high amount of current debt.
These items raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to
continue as a going concern.

Subsequent to its year end the Company is commencing new operations in the
electronics commerce industry where it will sell, or facilitate the sale,
of travel services through the Internet utilizing the Company's proprietary
technology in a web site.  The Company presently is working on an improved
version of the web site systems.

The Company has accrued ownership of a technology that among other things
provides a new way to navigate the Internet.

The Company entered into a License Agreement whereby the Company acquired
an exclusive right to certain patents, pending patents and proprietary
plans and strategies to operate in the travel service industry subject to
certain restrictive terms and conditions.

The Company has also entered into negotiations to acquire traditional type
travel agencies and four providers.

In addition to its efforts in the travel industry the Company has formed a
Nevada Corporation, as a wholly owned subsidiary, to establish and maintain
web sites pertaining to the offer and sale of artwork and related
merchandise.

The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability
to satisfactorily meet its obligations, generate cash flows from operations
for current operating costs and to raise capital to fund the planned
ventures.

The Company's President has personally guaranteed the Company's current
debt.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

</TABLE>

The Company has adopted FASB 109 to account for income taxes.  The Company
currently has no issues that create timing differences that would mandate
deferred tax expenses.  Net operating losses would create possible tax
assets in future years.   Due to the uncertainty as to the utilization of
net operating loss carryforwards an evaluation allowance has been made to
the extent of any tax benefit that net operating losses may generate.
