Total operating expenses were $959,446 in the second quarter 2004, as against $789,591 in first quarter 2004, reflecting slightly higher costs related to two acquisitions made in the second quarter. The company recorded its first quarterly profit with a gain on operations of $84,359 in the second quarter 2004 versus a loss on operations of $631,107 in the first quarter. Net profit after interest and foreign exchange adjustments was $63,469 in the second quarter or 0.00 cents per share versus a loss in the first quarter 2004 of $56,344 after accounting for a non-recurring net gain of $600,764 related to the sale of a division in that quarter. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the second quarter 2004 was 384,426,147 shares. The balance sheet for the second quarter ended June 30, 2004 showed similar improvement quarter over quarter with current assets increasing from $349,221 at December 30, 2003 to $1,074,620. Total assets rose from $1,240,543 at December 30, 2003 to $4,214,363 at June 30, 2004. Current liabilities increased marginally to $2,057,576 from $1,925,965 at December 30, 2003. Total stockholders equity climbed from a deficiency of $1,135,803 at the end of December 2003 to a surplus of $1,503,979 at the end of June 2004. While the company remains saddled with a working capital deficit the company disclosed that it is in negotiation with an unrelated party to obtain additional financing through a preferred share issue to allow the increased growth rate of the company to continue. In addition to the preferred stock transaction the company also recently obtained a term loan from a Canadian bank to fund additional equipment purchases for expansion. Peter Hamilton, President and CEO stated "I am very excited by our rapid improvement quarter over quarter in 2004 and can reiterate that we will have an excellent year of growth in 2004 and even better results in 2005. We foresee very high growth rates in our UK and US operations with solid increases in our Canadian operations as well. Based on what we know today we feel confident in reiterating our guidance for the full fiscal year of 2004 of positive earnings per share of approximately $0.01 for the full year." Mr. Hamilton also said "the 10QSB is expected to be delayed for several weeks pending completion of audits of two recent acquisitions and as a result of regulatory changes related to implementation of recent PCAOB rules which affect our US and non US based auditing firms. The delay caused by the PCAOB rules was not anticipated and should be a one time occurrence that will allow us to meet future filings on time. Both of our acquisitions in the second quarter were privately held operating businesses that were not previously subject to audits. As a result of the delay in filing the 10QSB the company will have an ("E") attached to its stock symbol until the filing is made. Investors are cautioned that the filing is still subject to final review by our auditors and that the income and balance sheet statements may be adjusted once their review has been completed and this may affect asset and stockholder's equity balances."
