FOODFEST INTERNATIONAL 2000 INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Unaudited
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011
(Expressed in United States Dollars)

 
1.
ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
Foodfest International 2000 Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company" or "Foodfest USA") was incorporated on September 20, 2006 in the State of Delaware, under the name Henya Food Corp.
 
On December 20, 2010, pursuant to a share exchange agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement"), the Company completed the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares of Foodfest International 2000 Inc. ("Foodfest Canada"), a private company incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada.
 
The acquisition of Foodfest Canada is accounted for under the purchase method as a reorganization of entities under common control, as both companies were managed by the same individuals prior to the transaction. The results are similar to a pooling of interests whereby the assets and liabilities were transferred at historical cost. The outstanding common stock of Foodfest USA is accounted for at its net book value and no goodwill was recognized.
 
Foodfest Canada has been operating since June 25, 1987 and is in the business of importing, marketing and distributing kosher, vegetarian and organic food products to grocery stores in Canada and the United States.
 
2.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
These financial statements include in consolidation the accounts of Foodfest USA and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Foodfest Canada, Foodfest Acquisition Corp. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Foodfest USA incorporated under the laws of Ontario, Canada) and Foodfest Call Corp. (a company incorporated under the laws of Ontario, Canada). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
 
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Security and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Form 10-Q and Article 8 of SEC Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2012.

Contingencies
 
On January 21, 2008, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a former stockholder of the Company whereby, in exchange for the return of 10,667 shares on October 31, 2007, the Company agreed to pay $200,000 to the former stockholder with the following terms:
 
 
1) This amount is payable one day following a restriction period of one year from the date the Company's shares of common stock begin to trade publicly. The funds will be raised by issuing new shares of common stock in a private placement. As security for this transaction, 3,000 of the shares were to be placed in escrow with a law firm, however to date no shares have been placed in escrow. $200,000 was accrued for this as severance expense during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008.
 
 
2) Within five business days of the Company receiving funds totaling $3,500,000 from a private placement, the Company will pay a total of $50,000 in final settlement of all obligations owed to the former stockholder. If the Company does not receive the funds from a private placement before the end of the restriction period stated in #1 above, interest at a rate of 5% per annum will accrue on the outstanding balance from the end of the restriction period. Additionally, if the Company does not receive the funds from a private placement before the end of the restriction period stated in #1 above, an amount of the shares held in escrow valued at $50,000 shall be delivered to the former stockholder. As indicated above, to date no shares have been place in escrow, therefore $50,000 of accrued management fees remains payable in relation to this.
 
In May 2011, Foodfest Canada initiated a claim against one of its suppliers for $3,475,000 for breach of the distribution agreement between the two parties. The supplier has counterclaimed against Foodfest Canada for failure to pay a series of outstanding invoices which total approximately $1,000,000. The full amount of these invoices are included in accounts payable, less certain credits which are in also dispute. At present, both parties have exchanged pleadings and have agreed to participate in a mediation which is scheduled to take place at the end of November 2011. Management expects a reasonable settlement will be achieved through the mediation.
 
Guarantee
 
In August 2010, Foodfest Canada entered into a guarantee on behalf of Strubs, the related party described in note 4. Foodfest Canada guaranteed up to a total amount of $200,000 in the event that Strubs was unable to make certain principal payments on its subordinated debts. The required subordinated debt payments are due February 20, 2011 for $100,000 and February 20, 2012 for $100,000.
 
In March 2011, the Company paid $100,000 in respect of its obligation for the first year of the guarantee and has recorded a receivable from Strubs in respect of this amount. In the event that Strubs is unable to repay its obligation, the Company will offset the full amount of this receivable against accounts payable owing to Strubs. As of June 30, 2011, the Company has not accrued a liability in respect of the remaining $100,000 outstanding under this guarantee as it is not known at this time if Foodfest Canada will be required to make this payment on February 20, 2012.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
 
Sales
 
We had $3,401,296 in sales for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $3,745,164 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. This represents a decrease of 9.2%. This decrease is primarily due to the loss of one significant supplier choosing to go direct to the retail chains through warehouse listings rather than having the company deliver on a direct store basis. To offset this loss in sales, we have begun introducing competitive product lines. We will also be introducing new product lines such as a line of mustards and a line of products from Turkey. We will continue to acquire new product listings with major retail chains.
 
Gross profit margin
 
Total cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $2,907,808 and our gross profit margin was 15% as compared to cost of goods sold of $2,746,249 and gross profit margin of 26% for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The gross profit margin decreased mainly as a result of:

·
The loss of one significant supplier, as mentioned above. The products provided from this supplier generally had higher profit margins than other products we are currently selling, resulting in a decrease in gross profit margin. We expect our margins to increase in the future as we introduce and establish new product lines.
·
We also sold off excess inventories at a discount to recover monies invested, resulting in lower margin sales.

Our head office is located in Canada and our functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The majority of our purchases are in U.S. dollars. The value of the Canadian dollar weakened during the three months ended September 30, 2011, resulting in higher inventory purchase costs which were paid in U.S. dollars.  At the beginning of the quarter, the Canadian dollar was worth approximately $1.05 for $1.00 US. At the end of the quarter it was worth approximately $0.96 for $1.00 US.

Selling, general and administrative expenses
 
Total expenses for the three months September 30, 2011 were $822,731 as compared to $806,425 for the three months ended September 30, 2010.
 
Our expenses are generally consistent with the prior period. We are focusing on decreasing our overheads by reducing the number of employees as a result of the decline in our sales. In addition the company has eliminated the use of brokers in most areas and is dealing directly with its customers.

Interest and bank charges have remained constant in the first three months of fiscal 2012. Despite a slight decrease during the quarter, the Canadian dollar remains strong minimizing our foreign exchange risk.
 
Income taxes
 
We recorded a current tax provision of $Nil for the three months ended September 30, 2011 which represents no taxable income in Foodfest Canada, less tax loss carry-forwards.  
 
We recorded a deferred tax recovery of $4,291 for the three months ended September 30, 2011.  This provision resulted from our tax losses carried forward and the difference in the carrying value of our property and equipment compared to the tax values.

Net (loss) earnings
 
Net loss was $324,952 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to net income of $178,916 for the three months ended September 30, 2010.  The overall loss was mainly related to the loss of a significant supplier, which resulted is a decrease in sales and gross margin.  We also sold off excess inventories at a discount to recover monies invested, resulting in lower margin sales.
  
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of September 30, 2011, we had current ratio of 0.81 to 1 or working capital deficit of $808,200.  We reduced our inventory levels which accounted for the decrease in liquidity. Over the next three months of our fiscal year, we expect to decrease bank indebtedness and our accounts payable which will help to increase our working capital and fund operating activities.  We also have repaid one of our term loans as of September 30, 2011, which helps to reduce our overall debt.
 
Cash flows from operating activities

Cash flows from operating activities improved during the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we improved the collection of accounts receivable compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010.

Cash flows from investing activities

During the three months ended September 30, 2011 the only capital additions were $3,820 for the purchase of office furniture.

Cash flows from financing activities

During the three months ended September 30, 2011 we paid down balances in our bank indebtedness, long-term debt and obligations under capital leases as required.

We intend to raise $5,000,000 through equity financing to support our sales and marketing efforts in the North American market as well as pursue acquisitions of manufacturers and distribution based companies that focus on Kosher, organic and natural foods.  We anticipate completing our financing goals by the end of the fourth quarter 2012 to enable us to continue our sales growth, introduction of new product lines, and actively pursue potential acquisitions and/or joint ventures.
 
We will be seeking out and pursuing foreign manufacturers that specialize in Kosher, organic and natural foods to import into the North American market. The addition of such products will further enhance the Company’s overall business plan. Concurrently we will be seeking out opportunities to export domestically produced Kosher, organic and natural foods that can fill a need in foreign markets.
 
While we continually seek out new products, acquisition and/or joint venture opportunities in the domestic market we will be looking at the same opportunities in foreign markets to potentially establish domestic production facilities for new products or for products previously imported. If successful this would reduce costs, lead times and reduce inventories, improve cash flow and result in better value for the customer.
 
We do not anticipate the purchase or sale of any significant equipment in the near future. We also do not expect any significant changes in the number of employees although depending on if financing is raised we may add additional representatives. We do not intend to increase our staff until such time as we can raise the capital or generate revenues to support the increase in overhead expense. The foregoing represents our best estimate of our cash needs based on current planning and business conditions. The exact allocation, purposes and timing of any monies raised in subsequent private financings may vary significantly depending upon the exact amount of funds raised and status of our business plan.
 
Seasonal

The only seasonal aspect of our business is around Passover, which raises inventory levels and sales around March to April which is typically in our 3rd and 4th quarter of our fiscal year.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not have any outstanding derivative financial instruments, off-balance sheet guarantees, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency contracts. We do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.

In addition, the disclosure controls and procedures must ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial and other required disclosures.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
 
In May 2011, Foodfest Canada initiated a claim against one of its suppliers for $3,475,000 for breach of the distribution agreement between the two parties. The supplier has counterclaimed against Foodfest Canada for failure to pay a series of outstanding invoices which total approximately $1,000,000. The full amount of these invoices are included in accounts payable, less certain credits which are in also dispute. At present, both parties have exchanged pleadings and have agreed to participate in a mediation which is scheduled to take place at the end of November 2011. Management expects a reasonable settlement will be achieved through the mediation.
