NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- ------------------------------
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of Ashlin Development
Corp. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and Regulation S-B.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the
interim periods presented have been included.
These results have been determined on the basis of generally accepted accounting
principles and practices applied consistently with those used in the preparation
of the Company's Annual Financial Statements for the year ended December 31,
2004. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2005 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2005.
It is recommended that the accompanying condensed financial statements be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and notes for the year ended
December 31, 2004, found in the Company's Form 10-KSB.
The Company's financial statements in the three and six months ended June 2005
are not comparative to the financial statements for the three months ended June
2004. The effective date of the Company's plan of reorganization was January 28,
2005.
Effective January 28, 2005 the Company completed a plan to divest its core
operations of Health and Nutrition Systems, Int'l Inc. The results of operations
and financial position are shown in the accompanying financial statements as
discontinued operations.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ---------------------------------------------------
Cash and Cash Equivalents
- -------------------------
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There are no cash
equivalents as of June 30, 2005.
Use of Estimates
- ----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with general accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
- -------------------
The Company recognizes revenue when
o Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists
o Shipment has occurred
o Price is fixed or determinable, and
o Collectability is reasonably assured
Basic Earnings Per Share
- ------------------------
Basic income per common share is computed by dividing the net income by the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year.
- 4 -
ASHLIN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
Diluted Earnings Per Share
- --------------------------
Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if
dilutive securities (stock options and stock warrants) to issue common stock
were exercised or converted into common stock that then shared in the earnings
of the Company.
Stock Compensation
- ------------------
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123
("SFAS 123"), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." SFAS 123 encourages the
use of a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based awards, under
which the fair value of stock options is determined on the date of grant and
expensed over the vesting period. Under SFAS 123, companies may, however,
measure compensation costs for those plans using the method prescribed by
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB No. 25"), "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees." Companies that apply APB No. 25 are required to include
pro forma disclosures of net earnings and earnings per share as if the
fair-value-based method of accounting had been applied. The Company elected to
account for such plans under the provisions of APB No. 25. The Company accounts
for stock options granted to consultants under SFAS 123.
Had the compensation expense for the stock option plan been determined based on
the fair value of the options at the grant date consistent with the methodology
prescribed under Statement of Financial Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock
Based Compensation," at June 30, the Company's net income and earnings per share
would have been effected to the proforma amounts indicated below:
JUNE 30, 2005
-------------
Net Income
As reported $ 1,326,581
=============
Pro forma $ 1,326,581
=============
Earnings per share
As reported $ 0.31
=============
Pro forma $ 0.31
=============
All but 55,000 options expired 30 days after January 28, 2005, the effective
date of the sale of substantially all of our operating assets.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
- ----------------------
The Company's condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that
the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has ceased it's Health
and Nutrition business effective January 28th, 2005. The Company is currently
exploring its options which may include acquiring or otherwise entering into a
new business or merging with an as yet unidentified company or companies.
On October 15, 2004, the Company filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the
United States Bankruptcy Code. The Company has operated under the Chapter 11
guidelines since October 15, 2004 and under a plan of reorganization filed by
the Company. The effective date of the Company's plan of reorganization was
January 28, 2005.
There remains substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to
reflect the possible effects on the recoverability and classification of assets
or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 4 - EQUITY
- ---------------
During the six months ended June 30, 2005, 300,000 share of common stock were
issued to the Company's chief executive officer as per his employment agreement.
These shares were valued at $0.04 per share of common stock and the Company
recorded compensation expense of $12,000.
On March 3, 2005, the Company issued 320,000 shares of common stock to the
Company's chief executive officer in recognition of performance. These shares
were valued at $0.10 per share and the Company recorded compensation expense of
$32,000.
On March 3, 2005, the Company entered in to a consulting contract with a
consultant and issued 100,000 shares of common stock as part of this contract.
These shares were valued at $0.10 per share of common stock and $10,000 was
recorded as compensation expense.
NOTE 5 - LEGAL MATTERS
- ----------------------
We were involved in litigation with J.C. Herbert Bryant, III, a former officer,
director and one of our shareholders, and KMS-Thin Tab 100, Inc., which was
settled in September 2002. As part of the settlement, we entered into a
distribution agreement with Mr. Bryant, beginning on September 26, 2002 and
ending on September 25, 2007, permitting Mr. Bryant to purchase certain products
from us and to exclusively distribute those products in Florida from Orlando
south. In October 2003, we terminated the distribution agreement with KMS based
on KMS's breach of material terms of the agreement. On December 1, 2003, we
filed suit against KMS-Thin Tab 100, Inc. in the Palm Beach County Circuit Court
(Case No. 2003CA012757XXCDAN) for breach of contract, trademark infringement and
for a declaration of rights that the distribution agreement is terminated and of
no further force and effect. KMS answered the complaint and filed its own
counterclaim for fraud in the inducement, trademark infringement, dilution and
fraudulent misrepresentation; the fraud-based counterclaims were dismissed with
prejudice by the Court on summary judgment. KMS subsequently amended its
counterclaim to allege a breach of contract under the distribution agreement. In
January 2005, the State Court in Florida ruled that neither party should
prevail, and rejected a request for attorney's fees by KMS-Thin Tab 100 Inc.,
thus adjudicating the matter. KMS-Thin Tab 100 Inc. subsequently filed a notice
of appeal.
Subsequently, on July 29, 2005, the 4th District Court of Appeals granted the
Company's motion to dismiss the appeal by KMS-Thin Tab 100 Inc.
The Company is not aware of any other outstanding litigation.
NOTE 6- ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
- --------------------------------
SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, was issued in May 2005
and replaces APB Opinion N0. 20 and SFAS No. 3. SFAS No. 154 requires
retrospective application for voluntary changes in accounting principle in most
instances and is required to be applied to all accounting changes made in fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company's expected April 1, 2006
adoption of SFAS No. 154 is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
NOTE 7-SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
- ------------------------
On August 4, 2005, the shareholders also approved an amendment to the Company's
Articles of Incorporation which increased the total number of authorized shares
of the Company to 160,000,000 shares, consisting of (i) 150,000,000 shares of
common stock and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of "blank check" preferred stock.
- 6 -
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
This quarterly report on Form 10-QSB contains forward-looking statements. Any
statements that are not statements of historical fact should be regarded as
forward-looking statements. For example, the words "intends," "believes,"
"anticipates," "plans," and "expects" are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. There are a number of important factors that could cause our actual
results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking
statements. These factors include without limitation those factors contained in
our Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not
undertake any obligation to update any such factors or to publicly announce the
result of any revision to any of the forward looking statements contained herein
to reflect future events or developments.
The following discussion of our results of operations and financial condition
should be read together with our unaudited Financial Statements contained in
Part I, Item 1 and the related Notes in this Form 10-QSB and our audited
Financial Statements and the related Notes contained in our Form 10-KSB filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Critical Accounting Estimates
- -----------------------------
Financial Reporting Release No. 60, which was released by the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission, encourages all companies to include a discussion of
critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of financial
statements. Our financial statements include a summary of the significant
accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our financial
statements.
Management believes the following critical accounting policies affect the
probable returns, significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of
the financial statements. These policies relate specifically to discontinued
operations, as the Company completed the sale of substantially all of its assets
effective January 28, 2005. Since our current business plan is to acquire or
otherwise enter into a new business or merge with an as yet unidentified company
or companies, each of the following policies are subject to change.
Revenue Recognition
- -------------------
The Company recognizes revenue when
o Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists
o Shipment has occurred
o Price is fixed or determinable, and
o Collectability is reasonably assured
Use of Estimates
- ----------------
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to
make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates these estimates,
including those related to valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset,
estimated useful life of fixed assets and the carrying value of long-lived
assets, intangible assets and allowances for sales returns, doubtful accounts,
and obsolete and slow moving inventory and reserve for customer liabilities.
Management based these estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions.
- 7 -
Recent Developments
- -------------------
At the 2005 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on August 4, 2005, Theodore T.
Alflen, James A. Brown, and Steven Pomerantz were duly reelected as our board of
directors. At the meeting, the shareholders also approved an amendment to our
Articles of Incorporation which increased the total number of authorized shares
of the Company to 160,000,000 shares, consisting of (i) 150,000,000 shares of
common stock and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of "blank check" preferred stock.
On October 15, 2004, the Company filed in the southern district of Florida a
plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States bankruptcy code.
This culminated a lengthy effort by management and the Board of Directors to
find alternatives to enhance shareholder value in the face of deteriorating
operating performance. The Court confirmed the Company's plan of reorganization
on January 10, 2005 and the plan was declared effective on January 28, 2005. We
formally emerged from bankruptcy protection on April 29, 2005.
As part of the plan:
(1) TeeZee, Inc., a company formed by our former Chief Executive
Officer, Christopher Tisi, purchased substantially all of the assets of the
Company, including the rights to the name "Health & Nutrition Systems
International, Inc." in exchange for $350,000 in cash and assumption of
approximately $1,841,000 in liabilities. Although allowed for under the plan no
other bids were submitted.
(2) The Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. James
Brown, which provides for:
o Salary of $9,200 per month until May 29, 2005 (30 days after
the Company emerged from bankruptcy), and thereafter at a
rate of $7,000 per month; and
o The issuance by the Company to Mr. Brown of 300,000 shares of
its Common Stock, which are shares subject to repurchase by
the Company if Mr. Brown terminates his employment with the
Company for any reason at any time prior to the first
anniversary of the agreement, or his employment with the
Company is terminated by the Company for cause;
(3) TeeZee, Inc. assumed the secured claim of Garden State Nutritionals
(GSN), a division of Vitaquest International, Inc.; GSN retained its
pre-existing lien on substantially all of the transferred assets;
(4) TeeZee, Inc. assumed the secured claim of SunTrust Bank on the
Company's 2004 Honda Element on the effective date; SunTrust retained its
pre-existing lien on the vehicle;
(5) TeeZee, Inc. assumed most unsecured claims, including those of
trade and employee creditors, together with any unsecured deficiency claims of
GSN and SunTrust. The unassumed unsecured claims of the Company were paid, pro
rata, from a fund which did not exceed $50,000;
(6) A permanent injunction was issued barring the Company and the
purchaser from violating Window Rock Enterprises, Inc.'s trademarks for
"CortiSlim" and the Company agreed not to challenge Window Rock's trademark for
this product; and
(7) All holders of the Company's common stock retained their shares.
Since the effective date of the Plan, the Company has continued to exist as a
separate incorporated entity. The present directors of the Company have
continued as directors of the Company, and Mr. Brown has continued to serve as
Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors. He is the sole
officer of the Company.
- 8 -
The Company has been engaged in the business of seeking suitable commercial
activities or a strategic alliance with an operating entity.
From inception through the effective date of our Plan of Reorganization, we
developed, marketed and sold weight management, energy and sport nutrition
products to national and regional, food, drug, health, pharmacy, mass-market
accounts, and independent health and pharmacy accounts. Our product formulations
were not proprietary.
We currently have no business operations or revenues, and our current business
plan is to acquire or merge with an unidentified company or companies.
OVERVIEW
--------
The Company, effective January 28, 2005, completed the sale of substantially all
of its assets to TeeZee, Inc. The Company had operating activities in January
that have been reported as discontinued operations in the Statement of
Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The discontinued operations
produced a loss of $155,701.
There was no revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, not
attributable to discontinued operations; this compared to revenue for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2004 of $1,390,171 and $2,879,547, all
attributable to discontinued operations.
Total operating expenses from continued operations for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2005 were $144,915 and $312,696, respectively, which primarily
consisted of general and administrative expenses. Total operating expenses from
discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $155,701,
which primarily consisted of general and administrative expenses. Operating
expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 were $1,550,835 and
$2,481,017.
The loss from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005
attributable to continued operations was $144,915 and $312,696, respectively.
The loss from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005 attributable to
discontinued operations was $155,701. This loss represents the full amount of
our operating expenses for the period. This compared to a net loss for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2004 of $868,947 and 959,687.
During the six months ended June 30, 2005, we recorded a one-time gain of
$1,794,893 on the sale of substantially all of our assets.
For the six months ended June 30, 2004, we recorded an expense for interest of
$18,104.
Net income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 was
$(144,830) and $1,326,581, respectively, attributable to the gain from the sale
of substantially all of our assets less the loss from our continued operations
and from our discontinued operations during such period, compared to a loss of
$868,947 for the three months and $959,687 for the six months ended June 30,
2004, representing the loss from our continued operations during such period.
Employees
- ---------
As of June 30, 2005, the Company had one employee, Mr. Brown, our Chairman,
Chief Executive Officer and Secretary. Since all other employees employment was
terminated at the closing, all except 55,000 stock options granted to the
directors of the Company were cancelled 30 days after January 28, 2005.
- 9 -
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
At June 30, 2005, the Company had working capital of $112,001, compared to a
working capital deficit of $1,083,307 at June 30, 2004. The improvement in
working capital is based on the sale of substantially all of our assets.
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2005,
was ($301,192) compared to $330,801 provided by operating activities for the six
months ended June 30, 2004. This decrease, while not directly comparable to 2004
due to the discontinued operations is attributable to the sale of substantially
all of the assets and the loss from operations.
The Company is currently exploring its options which may include acquiring or
otherwise entering into a new business or merging with an as yet unidentified
company or companies. To the extent that we are unable to identify and
successfully complete a transaction within the next six months, we may be unable
to continue as a going concern.
Going Concern Qualification
- ---------------------------
Because of uncertainties as to our future ability to secure capital, our
independent auditors' report on our financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2004 contains an explanatory paragraph about our ability to
continue as a going concern.
There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We
currently have no business operations or revenues, and our current business plan
is to acquire or merge with an unidentified company or companies. Our financial
statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible effects on the
recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, was issued in May 2005
and replaces APB Opinion N0. 20 and SFAS No. 3. SFAS No. 154 requires
retrospective application for voluntary changes in accounting principle in most
instances and is required to be applied to all accounting changes made in fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company's expected April 1, 2006
adoption of SFAS No. 154 is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
- ---------------------------------
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
- ------------------------------------------------
As of the end of the period, the Company carried out an evaluation of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and
procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. This evaluation was done by our
Chief Executive Officer, our sole executive officer and employee. Based upon
that evaluation, he concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in gathering, analyzing, and disclosing information
needed to satisfy our disclosure obligations under the Exchange Act.
Change in Internal Controls

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
- ---------------------------
We were involved in litigation with J.C. Herbert Bryant, III, a former officer,
director and one of our shareholders, and KMS-Thin Tab 100, Inc., which was
settled in September 2002. As part of the settlement, we entered into a
distribution agreement with Mr. Bryant, beginning on September 26, 2002 and
ending on September 25, 2007, permitting Mr. Bryant to purchase certain products
from us and to exclusively distribute those products in Florida from Orlando
south. In October 2003, we terminated the distribution agreement with KMS based
on KMS's breach of material terms of the agreement. On December 1, 2003, we
filed suit against KMS-Thin Tab 100, Inc. in the Palm Beach County Circuit Court
(Case No. 2003CA012757XXCDAN) for breach of contract, trademark infringement and
for a declaration of rights that the distribution agreement is terminated and of
no further force and effect. KMS answered the complaint and filed its own
counterclaim for fraud in the inducement, trademark infringement, dilution and
fraudulent misrepresentation; the fraud-based counterclaims were dismissed with
prejudice by the Court on summary judgment. KMS subsequently amended its
counterclaim to allege a breach of contract under the distribution agreement. In
January 2005, the State Court in Florida ruled that neither party should
prevail, and rejected a request for attorney's fees by KMS-Thin Tab 100 Inc.,
thus adjudicating the matter. KMS-Thin Tab 100 Inc. subsequently filed a notice
of appeal.
Subsequently, on July 29, 2005, the 4th District Court of Appeals granted the
Company's motion to dismiss the appeal by KMS-Thin Tab 100 Inc. The Company is
not aware of any other outstanding litigation.
The disclosure set forth under "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or
Plan of Operation - Recent Developments" is incorporated herein by reference.

Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the small business issuer and have:
(a) Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such

known to me by others within those entities, particularly during the

the small business issuer's internal control over financial reporting;
and
5. I have disclosed, based on my most recent evaluation of internal control
over financial reporting, to the small business issuer's auditors and the
audit committee of the small business issuer's board of directors (or
persons performing the equivalent functions):
(a) All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
reasonably likely to adversely affect the small business issuer's
ability to record, process, summarize and report financial
information; and
(b) Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
employees who have a significant role in the small business issuer's
internal control over financial reporting.
