SOUTHERN INVESTORS SERVICE COMPANY, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



(1) Current Business Conditions



Southern Investors Service Company, Inc., (the Company), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1972. Prior to 1990, the Company was engaged in the ownership and development of real estate primarily in the Houston,
Texas area. The operations of the Company were significantly reduced during 1990, as a result of various debt settlements with lenders and other creditors. These settlements resulted in the transfer of substantially all of the Companys
holdings to its creditors. The Companys operations since 1990 have been limited to attempts to settle or restructure the Companys remaining liabilities. The Companys operations also included the management of residential
developments and two office buildings owned by others. During 1998, the majority of these residential projects were sold by the owners and therefore the Company no longer is managing these projects. Effective January 1, 1999, the Company ceased all
management activity and all employees related to this activity were terminated.



The Company determined in late 1999 that the sale of Lajitas (a resort property in west Texas), its sole remaining operating asset, would facilitate the Companys ability to settle its existing liabilities most
favorably. As a result, the Company retained the National Auction Group, Inc., (National Auction) to conduct an auction of Lajitas. The auction was conducted on February 24, 2000 and the property was sold for $3,950,000. The sale of the Lajitas
property closed on May 2, 2000. During 2000, the Company realized a gain on the sale of Lajitas of $755,000 and received net cash proceeds of approximately $2.4 million, after the payment of a mortgage note related to the property sold.



The Company has attempted to use the net proceeds from the sale of Lajitas
to settle or restructure existing debt, of which approximately $4,874,000 (plus accrued interest) has matured and is currently past due, and to realize the carrying amount of its remaining assets. On March 26, 2002, the Board of Directors of the
Company determined that the best alternative to settle the Companys existing debt was to file a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (Chapter 11) with the United States Bankruptcy Court
(Bankruptcy Court). The Company currently anticipates that it will file its voluntary petition with the Bankruptcy Court during 2004 and that any plan of liquidation submitted to the Bankruptcy Court in connection therewith will call for the
disposition of the Companys remaining assets and the distribution of all the net proceeds therefrom to the Companys creditors whose claims are ultimately allowed by the Bankruptcy Court. These financial statements have been prepared
using the historical cost basis of accounting. Management of the Company believes the historical cost basis of accounting states the Companys assets at approximately their liquidation



---

values and states the Companys liabilities at their historical amounts. It is not presently determinable what
amounts the creditors will agree to accept in settlement of the obligations due them. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Accordingly, the Company believes the equity of
the Company has, and will continue to have, no value and that any Chapter 11 plan confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court will result in the elimination of the equity interests of all of the Companys stockholders. The Company anticipates that it
will take approximately nine months after the plan is filed to complete its liquidation process; however, any and all Chapter 11 plans that may be proposed will be subject to obtaining all necessary approvals, including but not limited to creditor
votes and judicial determinations of confirmability. There can be no assurance, therefore, as to how long it may take to complete the Companys liquidation process.



(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the significant accounting policies
included in the notes to the Companys latest annual report on Form 10-KSB. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with those notes.

of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this section and elsewhere in this report are forward looking statements and, although the Company believes that the expectations
reflected in such forward looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. The Companys business and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including
the Companys ability to settle or restructure its remaining debt and other obligations and to generate positive cash flow to cover its operating expenses, that may cause actual results to differ materially from the Companys expectations.
The Company does not intend to provide updated information other than as otherwise required by applicable law. All subsequent written and oral forward looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly
qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained in this paragraph and elsewhere in this report.



Current Business Conditions, Operations, Certain Events and Uncertainties



The Company has attempted to use the net proceeds from the sale of Lajitas to settle or restructure existing debt, of which approximately $4,874,000
(plus accrued interest) has matured and is currently past due, and to realize the carrying amount of its remaining assets. On March 26, 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company determined that the best alternative to settle the Companys
existing debt was to file a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 with the



---

Bankruptcy Court. The Company currently anticipates that it will file its voluntary petition during 2004 and that any
plan of liquidation submitted to the Bankruptcy Court in connection therewith will call for the disposition of the Companys remaining assets and the distribution of all the net proceeds therefrom to the Company creditors whose claims are
ultimately allowed by the Bankruptcy Court. The financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost basis of accounting. Management of the Company believes the historical cost basis of accounting states the Companys assets at
approximately their liquidation values and states the Companys liabilities at their historical amounts. It is not presently determinable what amounts the creditors will agree to accept in settlement of the obligations due them. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Accordingly, the Company believes that the equity of the Company has, and will continue to have, no value and that any Chapter 11 plan confirmed by the
Bankruptcy Court will result in the elimination of the equity interests of all of the Companys stockholders. The Company anticipates that it will take approximately nine months after the plan is filed to complete its liquidation process;
however, any and all Chapter 11 plans that may be proposed will be subject to obtaining all necessary approvals, including but not limited to creditor votes and judicial determinations of confirmability. There can be no assurance, therefore, as to
how long it may take to complete the Companys liquidation process.



Results of Operations



The Company reported a
net loss of ($115,000) or ($0.04) per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 compared with a net loss of ($95,000) or ($0.03) per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2003.



Revenues primarily include the recognition of previously deferred gross profits from the sale of real estate.



Operating expenses increased due to higher legal and professional fees.



The decrease in interest income is primarily due to the lower
interest rates during 2004.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



As of March 31, 2004, the Company was delinquent on notes payable and
other long-term debt of approximately $4,874,000 and interest payments of $3,434,000. As of March 31, 2004, the Company had recorded accounts payable and accrued expenses (including interest) and other liabilities of $3,496,000. Due to the sale of
Lajitas, the Company has sufficient funds to pay its current general and administrative operating expenses; however, the Company is unable to repay its notes payable at the face amounts and the related accrued interest.



In assessing the Companys liquidity, the impact of income taxes has
been considered. The Company does not expect its cash flow to be affected by income taxes in the foreseeable future because of its net operating loss carry forward.



---

The impact of inflation on the Company over the past several years has not been material.



No major additions to property, plant and equipment are currently
anticipated.
