CEA Acquisition Corporation
(a corporation in the development stage) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Cash & Cash
Equivalents
    
    The Company considers all highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.Income Taxes
    
    The Company follows Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS No. 109),
Accounting for Income Taxes which is an asset
and liability approach that requires the
recognition of deferred tax assets and
liabilities for the expected future tax
consequences of events that have been recognized
in the Companys financial statements or tax
returns. The Company has a net operating loss
carryforward of approximately $128,000 available
to reduce any future income taxes. The tax
benefit of this loss, approximately $50,000, has
been fully offset by a valuation allowance due
to the uncertainty of its realization.Net Loss Per
Share
    
    Net loss per share is computed on the basis of
the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period, including common
stock equivalents (unless anti-dilutive) which
would arise from the exercise of stock warrants.Use of Estimates
    
    The preparation of 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 reported amounts of
assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of
expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

CEA Acquisition Corporation
(a corporation in the development stage) Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements 1.
    
    Basis of
Presentation
    
    The financial statements are
unaudited and include the
accounts of CEA Acquisition
Corporation (a corporation in
the development stage)
(Company).In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting
primarily of normal accruals)
have been made that are
necessary to present fairly the
financial position of the
Company as of June 30, 2004 and
the results of its operations
and its cash flows for the
period from January 1, 2004
through June 30, 2004.
Operating results for the
interim period presented are
not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for
a full year.The statements and related
notes have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the U.S.
Securities and Exchange
Commission. Accordingly,
certain information and
footnote disclosures normally
included in financial
statements prepared in
accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles
have been omitted pursuant to
such rules and regulations.
These financial statements
should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements
that were included in the
Companys Form 10KSB for the
period ended December 31, 2003.2.
    
    Organization
and Business
Operations
    
    The Company was incorporated in
Delaware on October 14, 2003 as
a blank check company, the
objective of which is to
acquire an operating business
in the entertainment, media and
communications industry. The
Companys initial stockholders
purchased 875,000 common
shares, $.0001 par value, for
$25,000 on October 23, 2003.On February 19, 2004, the
Company consummated an Initial
Public Offering (Offering)
and raised net proceeds of
$21,390,000 which is discussed
in Note 3. The Companys
management has broad discretion
with respect to the specific
application of the net proceeds
of this Offering, although
substantially all of the net
proceeds of this Offering are
intended to be generally
applied toward consummating a
business combination with a
operating business in the
entertainment, media and
communications industry
(Business Combination).
Furthermore, there is no
assurance that the Company will
be able to successfully effect
a Business Combination. An
amount of $20,527,500 of the
net proceeds is being held in
an interest bearing trust
account (Trust Fund) until
the earlier of (i) the
consummation of its first
Business Combination or (ii)
liquidation of the Company.
Under the agreement governing
the Trust Fund, funds will only
be invested in United Stated
government securities

##### Table of Contents



CEA Acquisition Corporation
(a corporation in the development stage) Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements (treasury bills) with a
maturity of 180 days or less.
The remaining proceeds may be
used to pay for business, legal
and accounting due diligence on
prospective acquisitions and
continuing general and
administrative expenses.The Company, after signing a
definitive agreement for the
acquisition of a target
business, will submit such
transaction for stockholder
approval. In the event that
stockholders owning 20% or more
of the outstanding stock
excluding, for this purpose,
those persons who were
stockholders prior to the
Offering, vote against the
Business Combination, the
Business Combination will not
be consummated. All of the
Companys stockholders prior to
the Offering, including all of
the officers and directors of
the Company (Initial
Stockholders), have agreed to
vote their 875,000 founding
shares of common stock in
accordance with the vote of the
majority in interest of all
other stockholders of the
Company (Public Stockholders)
with respect to any Business
Combination. After
consummation of the Companys
first Business Combination, all
of these voting safeguards will
no longer be applicable.With respect to the first
Business Combination which is
approved and consummated, any
Public Stockholder who voted
against the Business
Combination may demand that the
Company redeem his shares. The
per share redemption price will
equal the amount in the Trust
Fund as of the record date for
determination of stockholders
entitled to vote on the
Business Combination divided by
the number of shares of common
stock held by Public
Stockholders at the
consummation of the Proposed
Offering. Accordingly, Public
Stockholders holding 19.99% of
the aggregate number of shares
owned by all Public
Stockholders may seek
redemption of their shares in
the event of a Business
Combination. Such Public
Stockholders are entitled to
receive their per share
interest in the
Trust Fund computed without
regard to the shares held by
Initial Stockholders.The Companys Certificate of
Incorporation provides for
mandatory liquidation of the
Company, without stockholder
approval, in the event that the
Company does not consummate a
Business Combination within 18
months from the date of the
consummation of the Offering,
or 24 months from the
consummation of the Offering if
certain extension criteria have
been satisfied. In the event
of liquidation, it is likely
that the per share value of the
residual assets remaining
available for distribution
(including Trust Fund assets)
will be less than the Offering
price per share in the Offering
due to costs related to the
Offering (assuming no value is
attributed to the warrants
contained in the Units in the
Offering discussed in Note 3).

    Offering
    
    On February 19, 2004, the
Company sold 4,025,000 units
(Units) in the offering,
which includes all of the
525,000 Units subject to the
underwriters over allotment
option. Each Unit consists of
one share of the Companys
common stock, $.0001 par value,
and two Redeemable Common Stock
Purchase Warrants (Warrants).
Each Warrant will entitle the
holder to purchase from the
Company one share of common
stock at an exercise price of
$5.00 commencing the later of
the completion of a business
combination with a target
business or one year from the
effective date of the Offering
and expiring four years from
the date of the prospectus.
The Warrants will be redeemable
at a price of $.01 per Warrant
upon 30 days notice after the
Warrants become exercisable,
only in the event that the last
sale price of the common stock
is at least $8.50 per share for
any 20 trading days within a 30
trading day period ending on
the third day prior to date on
which notice of redemption is
given. In connection with this
Offering, the Company issued an
option for $100 to the
representative of the
underwriters to purchase
350,000 units at an exercise
price of $9.90 per Unit. In
addition, the warrants
underlying such Units are
exercisable at $6.40 per share.4.
    
    Note Payable, Stockholder
    
    The Company issued a $60,000
unsecured non-interest bearing
promissory note to a
stockholder on October 22,
2003. The stockholder advanced
additional amounts aggregating
$34,300 through January 31,
2004. This note was paid in
full on March 3, 2004 from the
net proceeds of the Offering.5.
    
    Commitment
    
    The Company presently occupies
office space provided by an
affiliate of an Initial
Stockholder. Such affiliate
has agreed that, until the
acquisition of a target
business by the Company, it
will make such office space, as
well as certain office and
secretarial services, available
to the Company, as may be
required by the Company from
time to time. The Company is
obligated to pay such affiliate
$7,500 per month for such
services commencing from
February 19, 2004, the
effective date of the Offering.6.
    
    Preferred Stock
    
    The Company is authorized to
issue 1,000,000 shares of
preferred stock with such
designations, voting and other
rights and preferences as may
be determined from time to time
by the Board of Directors.

Commission. We were formed on October 14, 2003 to serve as a vehicle to effect a
merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business
combination with a company in the entertainment, media and communications
industry. We intend to utilize cash derived from the proceeds of our recently
completed public offering, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash,
capital stock and debt, in effecting a business combination. Net loss of $4,244 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 consists of
$22,500 expense for a monthly administrative services agreement, $45,932 for
professional fees, $11,250 expense for officer liability insurance, $6,438 for
travel expenses, $16,109 for other expenses and offset by a $25,000 reduction
in the excess offering expenses that had been charged in the three months
period ended March 31, 2004. Interest income on the Trust Fund investment was
$71,443 along with $1,542 of other interest income. Net loss of $127,570 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 consists of
$72,336 excess offering expenses, $32,586 expense for a monthly administrative
services agreement, $56,247 for professional fees, $20,250 expense for officer
liability insurance, $15,299 for travel expenses and $26,763 for other
expenses. Interest income on the Trust Fund investment was $93,634 along with
$2,277 of other interest income. We consummated our initial public offering on February 19, 2004. Gross
proceeds from our initial public offering, including the full exercise of the
underwriters over-allotment option, were $24,150,000. After deducting
offering expenses of $1,069,500 including $724,500 evidencing the underwriters
non-accountable expense allowance of 3% of the gross proceeds, and underwriting
discounts of $1,690,500, net proceeds were $21,390,000. Of this amount,
$20,527,500 is held in trust and the remaining proceeds are available to be
used to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective
acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses. We will use
substantially all of the net proceeds of this offering to acquire a target
business, including identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition
candidates, selecting the target business, and structuring, negotiating and
consummating the business combination. To the extent that our capital stock is
used in whole or in part as consideration to effect a business combination, the
proceeds held in the trust fund as well as any other net proceeds not expended
will be used to finance the operations of the target business. We believe that
we have sufficient available funds outside of the trust fund to operate through
February 18, 2006, assuming that a business combination is not consummated
during that time. Over this time period, we anticipate $180,000 for the
administrative fee payable to CEA Group LLC ($7,500 per month for two years),
approximately $150,000 of expenses for legal, accounting and other expenses
related to the due diligence investigations, structuring and negotiating of a
business combination, $50,000 of expenses for the due diligence and
investigation of a target business, $40,000 of expenses in legal and accounting
fees relating to our SEC reporting obligations and $285,000 for general working
capital that will be used for miscellaneous expenses and reserves, including
approximately $60,000 for director and officer liability insurance premiums. We
do not believe we will need to raise additional funds following this offering
in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However,
we may need to raise additional funds through a private offering of debt or equity securities
if such funds are required to -12-

consummate a business combination that is
presented to us. We would only consummate such a fund raising simultaneously
with the consummation of a business combination. We are obligated, commencing February 12, 2004, to pay to CEA Group, one
of our initial stockholders and an affiliate of J. Patrick Michaels, Jr., a
monthly fee of $7,500 for general and administrative services. In addition, in
October 2003 and January 2004, CEA Group, LLC advanced an aggregate of $94,300
to us, on a non-interest bearing basis, for payment of offering expenses on our
behalf. This amount was repaid in March 2004 out of proceeds of our initial
public offering. 
 ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. An evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of June 30, 2004 was made under the supervision and with the
participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and
chief financial officer. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period
covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed by
us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. During the
most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no significant change in
our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or
is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting. -13-
