NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Six Months Ended June 30, 2003
NOTE 1 UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB
and, therefore, omit or condense certain footnotes and other
information normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. It is suggested that these condensed financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's audited financial statements on Form 10-KSB for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.
The accounting policies followed for interim financial
reporting are the same as those disclosed in Note 1 of the
Notes to Financial Statements included in the Company's
audited financial statements on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2002.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial
statements include all necessary adjustments (consisting of
normal, recurring accruals) for a fair presentation of the
financial position, results of operations and cash flow for
the interim periods presented. Preparing financial
statements requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may
differ from these estimates. Interim results are not
necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The
results of operations for the six-month period ended June
30, 2003, are not necessarily indicative of operating
results to be expected for a full year.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
Stock Options
The Company elected to account for stock options issued to
employees in accordance with Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25 (APB Opinion No. 25) Accounting For Stock
Issued to Employees and related interpretations, which
established financial accounting and reporting for
compensation cost of stock issued to employees through
non-variable plans, variable plans, and non-compensatory
plans, and accounts for stock options and warrants issued to
non-employees in accordance with SFAS 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, which established a fair value
method of accounting for stock compensation plans with
employees and others.
Accounting Pronouncements
In June, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued Statement of Accounting Standards No. 141, Business
Combinations (SFAS No. 141), which establishes financial
accounting and reporting for business combinations and
establishes financial accounting and reporting for business
combinations and supersedes APB Opinion No. 16, Business
Combinations, and FASB Statement No. 38 Accounting for
Preacquisition Contingencies of Purchased Enterprises. All
business combinations in the scope of this statement are to
be accounted for using the Purchase Method. SFAS No. 141 is
applicable for fiscal years beginning after June 30, 2001.
Accounting Standards No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets (SFAS No. 142) addresses financial accounting and
reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets
and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17. This statement addresses
how goodwill and intangible assets other than those acquired
in a business combination should be accounted for after they
have been initially recognized on the financial statements.
SFAS No. 142 is applicable for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2001.
Statement No. 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal
of Long-Lived Assets supersedes Statement No. 121 Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed of ("SFAS 121"). Though it retains
the basic requirements of SFAS 121 regarding when and how to
measure an impairment loss, SFAS 144 provides additional
implementation guidance. SFAS 144 excludes goodwill and
intangibles not being amortized among other exclusions.
SFAS 144 also supersedes the provisions of APB 30, Reporting
the Results of Operations pertaining to discontinued
operations. Separate reporting of a discontinued operation
is still required, but SFAS 144 expands the presentation to
include a component of an entity, rather than strictly a
business segment as defined in SFAS 131, Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.
SFAS 144 also eliminates the current exemption to
consolidation when control over a subsidiary is likely to be
temporary. This statement is effective for all fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company believes
that the future implementation of SFAS 144 will not have a
material effect on the Company's financial position, results
of operations or liquidity.
Concentration of Risk
There were no cash balances at June 30, 2003, that exceed
federal insurance limits.
Basic Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share for each year is computed by
dividing income (loss) for the year by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings (loss) per share include the effects of
common stock equivalents to the extent they are dilutive.
Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding at June
30, 2003, is as follows:
Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding 500,000
NOTE 3 STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY
Common Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of
common stock at $0.001 par value. On June 29, 2000, the
Company issued 500,000 shares of common stock for an
aggregate consideration of $500.
NOTE 4 GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY
These financial statements are presented assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has
no operating history, no established source of revenue or
earnings from operations, as well as an accumulated deficit.
This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern. Management's plan in regard
to these matters includes active pursuit of suitable
business opportunities with which to negotiate business
combinations on terms favorable to the Company.
NOTE 5 CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT
On April 25, 2003, the then sole shareholder, officer and
director, Peter R. Goss of Kaw Acquisition Corporation
("Kaw/Company") appointed Henry J. Boucher, Jr., and Robert
Laraia as Directors of Kaw with Henry J. Boucher, Jr., to
serve as President and Robert Laraia to serve as
Secretary/Treasurer. Mr. Goss resigned as the Company's
sole Officer and Director of the Company. Mr. Goss'
resignation did not involve any disagreement with the
Company on any matter related to Kaw's operations, policies
or practices.
During the month of July, 2002, Peter Goss, the sole
shareholder the of the Company, agreed to sell all of his
shares of stock comprising 500,000 common shares of Kaw
Acquisition Corporation for $165,000. The sale was subject
to the Company being current in all of its required filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission through December
31, 2002. Mr. Goss received a partial payment of $55,000 in
October, 2002, as against the then purchase price. The
transaction was a private sale by Mr. Goss of his restricted
common shares of the Company. The parties to the sale and
purchase agreement then renegotiated the terms of the
agreement (including the undertaking of Mr. Goss to update
all filings required to be made with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission). These filings are now
complete and the sale of stock was completed as follows:
Mr. Goss sold 250,000 shares of the common shares of the
Company to each of Trails End Management, LLC, and Deerwood
Capital, LLC, each Delaware limited liability companies, and
Mr. Goss resigned as an Officer and Director of the Company
and appointed new Directors.
Upon completing the events described above, a change of
control of Kaw resulted.
NOTE 6 BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP
The following table shows the Kaw Common Stock owned
beneficially by (i) each of our Executive Officers, (ii)
each of our current Directors, (iii) all Executive Officers
and Directors as a group, and (iv) each person known by us
to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of our
Common Stock as of April 25, 2003. "Beneficial ownership"
is a technical term broadly defined by the Securities and
Exchange Commission to mean more than ownership in the usual
sense. For example, you beneficially own Common Stock not
only if you hold it directly, but also if you indirectly
(through a relationship, a position as Director or Trustee,
or a contract or understanding), have (or share the power to
vote the stock or sell it) the right to acquire it within 60
days. Except as disclosed in the footnotes below, each of
the Executive Officers and Directors listed have sole voting
and investment power over his shares. As of April 25, 2003,
there were 500,000 shares of Common Stock issued and
outstanding and two holders of record.

OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no legal proceedings against the Company and the
Company is unaware of such proceedings contemplated against it.
ITEM 2 CHANGES IN SECURITIES
Not applicable.
ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company has registered its common stock on a Form 10-SB
registration statement filed pursuant to the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and Rule 12(g)
thereof. The Company files with the Securities and Exchange
Commission periodic and episodic reports under Rule 13(a) of
the Exchange Act, including quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB
and annual reports Form 10-KSB.
The Company was formed to engage in a merger with or
acquisition of an unidentified foreign or domestic private
company which desires to become a reporting company whose
securities have been registered under the Exchange Act. The
Company may be deemed to meet the definition of a "blank
check" company contained in Section (7)(b)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Management believes that there are perceived benefits to
being a reporting company which may be attractive to foreign
and domestic private companies.
These benefits are commonly thought to include:
(1) the ability to use securities to make acquisition f
assets or businesses;
(2) increased visibility in the financial community;
(3) the facilitation of borrowing from financial institutions;
(4) improved trading efficiency;
(5) the potential for shareholder liquidity;
(6) greater ease in subsequently raising capital;
(7) compensation of key employees through options for stock
for which there may be a public market;
(8) enhanced corporate image; and
(9) a presence in the United States capital market.
A private company which may be interested in a business
combination with the Company may include:
(1) a company for which a primary purpose of becoming a
reporting company is the use of its securities for the
acquisition of assets or businesses;
(2) a company which is unable to find an underwriter of its
securities or is unable to find an underwriter of
securities on terms acceptable to it;
(3) a company which wishes to become a reporting company
with less dilution of its common stock than would occur
normally upon an underwriting;
(4) a company which believes that it will be able to obtain
investment capital on more favorable terms after it has
become a reporting company;
(5) a foreign company which may wish an initial entry into
the United States securities market;
(6) a company seeking one or more of the other benefits
believed to attach to a reporting company.
The Company is not currently engaged in negotiations with
any potential target company for a business combination.
The Company is authorized to enter into a definitive
agreement with a wide variety of private businesses without
limitation as to their industry or revenues. It is not
possible at this time to predict with which private company,
if any, the Company will enter into a definitive agreement
or what will be the industry, operating history, revenues,
future prospects or other characteristics of that company.
The current shareholders of the Company have agreed not to
sell or otherwise transfer any of their common stock of the
Company except in connection with a business combination.
The Company does not intend to trade its securities in the
secondary market until completion of a business combination.
It is anticipated that following such occurrence the
Company will take the steps required to cause its common
stock to be admitted to quotation on the NASD OTC Bulletin
Board or, if it then meets the financial and other
requirements thereof, on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market,
National Market System or regional or national exchange.
