BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 10,
2001 under the name Princeton Ventures, Inc. The Company was primarily
engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties from its
inception until May 30, 2003.
On May 30, 2003, Princeton Ventures, Inc., Aero Marine Engine Corp., a Nevada
corporation (hereinafter "Aero Marine NV") and the former Aero Marine NV
Shareholders entered into an Exchange Agreement whereby Aero Marine NV became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Princeton Ventures, Inc. and control of Princeton
Ventures, Inc. shifted to the former Aero Marine NV Shareholders. As a result
of the acquisition of Aero Marine NV and a change in business focus, Princeton
Ventures, Inc. subsequently changed its name to Aero Marine Engine, Inc. Aero
Marine NV is engaged in the development, manufacture and distribution of the
Dyna-Cam Engine.
On June 30, 2003, Aero Marine NV acquired substantially all of the assets of
Dyna-Cam Engine Corporation (the "Acquired Assets"), which at the time was a
development stage company that was further developing a proprietary internal
combustion, gasoline powered engine (the "Dyna-Cam Engine") and that owned and
had created certain tangible and intangible assets in furtherance of the
development, manufacture and distribution of such engine. The Acquired Assets
include, but are not limited to, three Dyna-Cam Engines, all engineering plans,
designs and drawings, system maps, abstracts, blueprints, surveys and drawings
relating thereto, materials to assemble approximately twenty Dyna-Cam Engines,
the tooling to manufacture the Dyna-Cam Engine, the www.dynacam.comWeb site and
all interest in and to the trade name and trademarks and all other rights
related to the use of the name "Dyna-Cam" or any combination or variation
thereof.
BUSINESS OF THE ISSUER
The Company's principal product is the Dyna-Cam Engine. The Dyna-Cam Engine is
an internal combustion engine where the pistons drive a cam to generate power to
the main shaft. The main shaft is in a parallel direction to the piston
movement, without connecting rods or crankshaft. The engine has approximately
40% fewer moving parts than a conventional internal combustion engine, has a
greater power to weight ratio, produces high torque at low rpm, operates with
less vibration, and is lighter than the competition. The Dyna-Cam Engine can be
put to the following uses: marine, automotive, electric generation, light
aircraft and the lifting of water.
Aero Marine has one patent relating to the oiling and water cooling system.
In addition, Aero Marine has eight patent applications in process with one
relating to cam shaft delivery to valve train. Aero Marine also has proprietary
intellectual property and is exploring the climate to protect its technology and
anticipates taking additional steps to protect its technology.
The Dyna-Cam engine was FAA approved and it is expected that Aero Marine
will receive additional FAA approval for the engine.
COMPETITION
Aero Marine has many competitors, including major automotive, engine, marine,
and aircraft manufacturers, but it believes that it will be competitive in these
markets due to the reasons mentioned above.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Aero Marine has one patent relating to the oiling and water cooling system.
In addition, Aero Marine has eight patent applications in process with one
relating to cam shaft delivery to valve train. Aero Marine also has proprietary
intellectual property and is exploring the climate to protect its technology and
anticipates taking additional steps to protect its technology.
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
Aero Marine currently has a month-to-month lease of premises in Torrance,
California, where the Dyna-Cam Engine has been produced. Over the next several
months, Aero Marine will be analyzing the market to determine whether to remain
in California or relocate to another area that will be close to markets and
suppliers. to the New York City area.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is not a party to any litigation.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003, the majority stockholders
approved articles of amendment to the articles of incorporation approving a name
change to Aero Marine Engine, Inc., a 3.1126202:1 forward stock split and
reauthorizing Two Hundred Million (200,000,000) shares, of which One Hundred
Million (100,000,000) shares will be common stock, with a par value of $0.001
per share, and One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares will be preferred stock,
with a par value of $0.001 per share. The number of shares consenting to the
action was 12,528,000 out of 16,062,000.
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCK MATTERS
"Bid" and "asked" offers for the common stock are listed on the NASDAQ
OTC-Bulletin Board published by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. The trading
symbol for the common stock was PVEN and was changed to ARMR in connection with
the Company's name change on July 10, 2003.
The following table sets forth the quarterly high and low bid prices of the
common stock for June 30, 2003. Such prices represent prices between
dealers, do not include retail mark-ups, mark-downs or commissions, and may
not represent actual transactions.
Bid Prices
Quarter Ended High Low
-------------- ---- ------
June 30, 2003 $0.40 $0.01
There were 29 holders of record of the common stock as of June 30, 2003. The
Company has never paid a dividend on its common stock and does not anticipate
the payment of dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company's common stock
is considered a "penny stock" as defined in certain rules (the "Rules") under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In general, a security which is not quoted
on NASDAQ or has a market price of less than $5 per share where the issuer does
not have in excess of $2,000,000 in net tangible assets (none of which
conditions the Company meets) is considered a penny stock. The SEC's rules
regarding penny stocks impose additional sales practice requirements on
broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established
customers and accredited investors (generally persons with net worth in excess
of $1,000,000 or an annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with
their spouse). For transactions covered by the Rules, the broker-dealer must
make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the
purchaser's written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Thus the
Rules affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company's shares should
they wish to do so because of the adverse effect that the Rules have upon
liquidity of penny stocks. Unless the transaction is exempt under the Rules,
under the Securities Enforcement Remedies and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990,
broker-dealers effecting customer transactions in penny stocks are required to
provide their customers with (i) a risk disclosure document; (ii) disclosure of
current bid and ask quotations if any; (iii) disclosure of the compensation of
the broker-dealer and its sales personnel in the transaction; and (iv) monthly
account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the
customer's account. As a result of the penny stock rules the market liquidity
for the Company's securities may be severely adversely effected by limiting the
ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company's securities and the ability of
purchasers of the securities to resell them.
RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
During the year ended June 30, 2002, the Company issued or sold 12,528,000
shares of its common stock, $.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock") which
were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), to
four individuals pursuant to an Exchange Agreement. The Company claims the
exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) under the Act since no
public offering was involved, the purchasers took the shares for investment and
not resale and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict transfer. No
underwriters or agents were involved in the sale and no underwriting discounts
or commissions were paid by the Company.
We issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock on May 16, 2001 to Mr. Locke B.
Goldsmith and Mr. William C. Robertson. Mr. Goldsmith is one of our directors
and is our president and chief executive officer. Mr. Goldsmith acquired

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section
27a of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21e of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. These forward looking statements are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
historical results or anticipated results, including those set forth under
"Factors that may affect future results" in this Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this
report. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
"Selected Financial Data" and the Company's financial statements and notes
thereto included elsewhere in this report.
OVERVIEW
On June 30, 2003, Aero Marine acquired all of the assets of DynaCam Engine
Corporation, manufacturer of the Dyna-Cam(TM). The Dyna-Cam engine is an
internal combustion engine where the pistons drive a cam to generate power
to the main shaft. The main shaft is in a parallel direction to piston
movement, without connecting rods or crankshaft. The engine has approximately
50% fewer moving parts than a conventional internal combustion engine, has a
greater power to weight ratio, produces high torque at low rpm, operates with
less vibration, and is lighter than the competition.
MARKETING STRATEGY
The Company believes that the Dyna-Cam engine has potential in marine, static
(generators etc.), light aircraft installations. Due to the high torque to
weight ratio, the Company believes that it also has application in automotive
areas, particularly trucking and construction machinery. As a marketing
strategy, the Company intends to install test engines in boats for demonstration
and data acquisition purposes. The Company plans to promote these installations
at boat shows and through contact with parties who have contacted the Company
expressing their interest in acquiring engines. The Company is considering the
installation of an engine in a light aircraft for demonstration and data
acquisition purposes. Prior to the Company's acquisition of the assets of
DynaCam, the Dyna-Cam engine was promoted mainly as a light aircraft engine.
There have been a large number of parties interested in this application.
NEW PRODUCTS
In order to meet the demands of the marine installation, work is commencing on a
diesel version of the engine. Engineering studies are beginning with respect to
the development of a pure diesel version and a spark assisted diesel.
Information from the marine industry has indicated that a diesel burning version
would meet with wide acceptance.
MANUFACTURING OVERVIEW
Management has prepared for rapid growth. The Company's manufacturing technique
is flexible because of its modular design and it can respond easily to customer
demand. Modules can be mass-produced and then assembled to meet changing
purchase orders. Production can be increased and new products introduced
readily. Currently the Company is operating at a small percentage of its
manufacturing capacity.
The Company currently has three working prototypes of the engine and parts to
assemble 20 new engines. The Company is commencing production, on a small
scale, of additional engines to refine the manufacturing process and determine
the best configuration for great volume of production.
It is the goal of the Company to prepare for larger production within the next
six to eight months. The Company is examining premises for such production and
determining the flow of production. In addition, contacts with suppliers of raw
materials and castings are in progress.
PLAN OF OPERATION
During the next twelve months, the Company expects to begin to manufacture 20
new engines using existing inventory of parts acquired in the Dyna-Cam
acquisition. The Company expects to source new parts for additional engines,
which includes establishing relationships with suppliers for an ongoing supply
of parts. The initial lead time for parts such as castings can be six to nine
months. The Company will be pursuing the application of new technology to the
existing engine design to facilitate the burning of diesel fuel. The Company
will be examining the existing design with a view towards improving efficiencies
through combustion chamber design, ignition parameters and fuel and exhaust
management.
The Company is continuing to examine the best location for a permanent
manufacturing facility, looking at factors such as access to markets and
suppliers and the best available tax treatments or incentives. Upon the Company
locating a permanent manufacturing facility, the Company will require additional
machinery, tooling and employees.
The Company will be demonstrating the engine at various trade shows and working
with the existing list of potential clients to secure orders for the engines.
This will cause the financing arranged to be utilized and the Company will
pursue additional financing through debt or equity to move to a greater level of
production and sales.
OPERATING RESULTS
For the Period December 30, 2002 (Date of Inception) to June 30, 2003
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company has not generated revenues since its inception in December 2002.
Operating expenses were $137,290 for the period from inception (December 30,
2002) through June 30, 2003 and were composed of consulting expenses of $1,125
and professional fees of $136,165. The Company had an operating loss of
$137,290 as well a net loss of $137,290.
As of June 30, 2003, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $137,282.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
For the year ended June 30, 2003 the Company has not generated positive cash
flow from its own operations due to the preliminary nature of such operations,
ongoing investment in research and development, and expenditures to build the
appropriate infrastructure to support its expected growth. Consequently, the
Company has been dependent on an infusion of capital from its majority
shareholders.
The Company received financing from its majority shareholders in the amount of
$1,084,843 during the period from inception (December 30, 2002) through June 30,
2003. In addition, the Company recently secured financing in the amount of
$2,500,000 from existing shareholders, to be advanced to the Company as
unsecured shareholder loans. The advances will bear interest at the Federal
Reserve prime rate plus 1.25% and interest will be payable annually. There is
no repayment schedule at this time. In addition, Perma-Tune Electronics, Inc.
has agreed to extend to the Company a $1.5 million credit line to provide
products and services to the Company. Over the next four to six months, it is
expected that Perma-Tune will conduct a complete and comprehensive engineering
review of the Company's Dyna-Cam engine. In this review, Perma-Tune will
orchestrate, using state-of-the-art technology, detailed composite testing and
metallurgy which will be used to determine and propose altering various
components of the engine to enhance efficiencies. Perma-Tune will conduct
thorough failure tests on both the old engine and the new one. Also, prior to
going into full production, it is anticipated that Perma-Tune will perform an
in-depth manufacturing overview of the Dyna-Cam engine emphasizing optimizing
performance and minimizing costs. The Company and Perma-Tune share commonality
of ownership and are controlled by the same principal shareholders.
The Company has raised capital via equity and debt of approximately $4 million
dollars to date. This financing will enable the Company to provide a low level
of production. In order to achieve a commercial level of production, the
Company anticipates requiring financing of $10 million dollars or more.
without additional financing, of which no sources of additional financing have
been secured or identified, the Company believes it can operate at its current
level of liquidity for twelve to twenty-four months.
As of June 30, 2003 the Company's cash held in trust totaled $38,909 and total
current assets were $344,080. Inventory at June 30, 2003 was $266,589.
The Company had accounts payable of $210,349 and accrued expenses of $29,175 at
June 30, 2003.
The Company is taking steps to raise equity capital. There can be no assurance
that any new capital would be available to the Company or that adequate funds
for the Company's operations, whether from the Company's revenues, financial
markets, or other arrangements will be available when needed or on terms
satisfactory to the Company. The Company has received commitments from Murray
Stark and Colonel Fyn, the Company's majority stockholders, as set forth herein,
but there is no commitment to provide additional financing. The failure of the
Company to obtain adequate additional financing may require the Company to
delay, curtail or scale back some or all of its research and development
programs, sales and marketing efforts, and manufacturing operations. Any
additional financing may involve dilution to the Company's then-existing
shareholders.
RISK FACTORS
Dependence upon External Financing. We have raised capital sufficient
only to begin a low level of production. It is imperative that we raise
additional capital to expand our operations and achieve a commercial level of
production. We estimate at this time, additional financing of $10 million
dollars or more to reach a commercial level of production. If we are unable
to obtain debt and/or equity financing upon terms that our management deems
sufficiently favorable, or at all, it would have a materially adverse impact
upon our ability to pursue our business strategy and expand our current
operations.
Reliance on Key Management. Our success is highly dependent upon the
continued services of Garth S. Bailey, our Chief Executive Officer, Patricia
Wilks who is expected to serve as our Marketing and Office Manager, and Dennis
Palmer who is expected to serve as our Operations Manager. If any of the
foregoing persons were to leave us, it could have a materially adverse effect
upon our business and operations. We anticipate entering into employment
agreements with the foregoing individuals, but can provide no assurance that we
will come to terms for such employment agreements.
Our Product is Unproven. Our product has not been utilized for more than
two years. Our product is currently in the prototype stage and is not currently
being used. Therefore, we provide no assurance that the product will be
successful, if, and when completed.
Even if Product is Successful, We May Be Unable to Sell Our Product. In the
event we are successful in completing our product, there can be no assurance
that we will be able to sell our products at all, or enough at prices needed to
maintain operations.
Product Liability. In the event our product is completed, we may suffer
substantial product liability in the event that our product fails. We do not
currently maintain insurance for our product and product liability resulting
from the failure of our product would most likely force us to cease operations.
ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements of the Company are attached hereto.
ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Effective August 5, 2003, the client-auditor relationship between Aero Marine
and Morgan & Company, Chartered Accountants, a Professional Accountancy
Corporation ("Morgan") ceased as Morgan was dismissed. On August 6, 2003, the
Company engaged Epstein, Weber & Conover, PLC ("Epstein") as its principal
independent public accountant to audit the Company's financial statements. The
Board of Directors approved the decision to change accountants.
Morgan's report on the balance sheet of the Company as of June 30, 2002 and
2001, and the statements of loss and deficit accumulated during the exploration
stage, cash flows, and stockholder's equity for the year ended June 30, 2002,
for the period from May 10, 2001 (date of inception) to June 30, 2001, and for
the period from May 10, 2001 (date of inception) to June 30, 2002 and any later
interim period up to and including the date the relationship with Morgan ceased
did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles
except as it relates to the auditors' issuance of a going concern opinion on the
financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2002.
In connection with the audit of the Company's two most recent fiscal years
ending June 30, 2002 and any later interim period, including the interim period
up to and including the date the relationship with Morgan ceased, there have
been no disagreements with Morgan on any matters of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure,
which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Morgan would have caused Morgan to
make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with
its report on the Company's financial statements.
The Company authorized Morgan to respond fully to any inquiries of any new
auditors hired by the Company relating to their engagement as the Company's
independent accountant. The Company requested that Morgan review the
disclosure and Morgan was given an opportunity to furnish the Company with
a letter addressed to the Commission containing any new information,
clarification of the Company's expression of its views, or the respect in
which it does not agree with the statements made by the Company. Such letter
was filed as an exhibit to a report on Form 8-K.
The Company had not previously consulted with Epstein, Weber & Conover, PLC
regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified
transaction, either completed or proposed; or (ii) the type of audit opinion
that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements; or (iii) any
matter that was either the subject matter of a disagreement (as defined in Item
304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the
Company and Morgan, the Company's previous independent accountant, as there were
no such disagreements or an other reportable event (as defined in Item
304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) from the Company's incorporation on May 10,
2001 through June 30, 2002 and any later interim period, including the interim
period up to and including the date the relationship with Morgan ceased.
Neither has the Company received any written or oral advice concluding there was
an important factor to be considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to
an accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue. Epstein, Weber &
Conover, PLC reviewed the disclosure required by Item 304(a) before it was
filed with the Commission and was provided an opportunity to furnish the
Company with a letter addressed to the Commission containing any new
information, clarification of the Company's expression of its views, or the
respects in which it did not agree with the statements made by the Company in
response to Item 304(a). Epstein, Weber & Conover, PLC did not furnish a letter
to the Commission.
ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Within 90 days of the filing of this Form 10-KSB, an evaluation of the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was carried out under
the supervision and with the participation of Garth S. Bailey, our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Disclosure controls and
procedures are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that
information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, such as this Form 10-KSB, is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time period specified in the Securities and
Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Based on that evaluation, Mr. Bailey
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely
alerting management to material information relating to us required to be
included in our periodic SEC filings and satisfying the objectives for which
they are intended.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting
identified in connection with the evaluation performed that occurred during the
fiscal year covered by this report that has materially affected or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

SECTION 16 (A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) of the securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the
Company's directors, executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of a
class of the Company's equity securities which are registered under the Exchange
Act to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of
ownership and reports of changes of ownership of such registered securities.
Such executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners are
required by Commission regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all
Section 16(a) forms filed by such reporting persons.
To the Company's knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT
-------------------------------
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Aero Marine Engine, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Aero Marine
Engine, Inc. (a development stage enterprise) as of June 30, 2003 and the
related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders' equity and cash
flows for the period December 30, 2002, (date of inception) to June 30, 2003.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Aero
Marine Engine, Inc. as of June 30, 2003, and the consolidated results of its
operations and cash flows for the period December 30, 2002, (date of inception)
to June 30, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has yet to begin revenue
generating operations and will require substantial additional capital to
implement its plan of operations. Even if additional capital is raised, the
Company faces numerous operating challenges. These factors raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans with regard to these matters are discussed in Note 1. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of
liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a
going concern.

AERO MARINE ENGINE, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Princeton Ventures, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada
on May 10, 2001. The Company had not commenced operations. On May 30, 2003,
the Company exchanged 37,944,922 shares of its common stock for all of the
issued and outstanding shares of Aero Marine Engine Corp. ("Aero"). Aero was
formed on December 30, 2002. Aero had no operations and was formed to acquire
the assets of Dyna-Cam Engine Corporation. The Company changed its name from
Princeton Ventures, Inc. to Aero Marine Engine, Inc.
At the time that the transaction was agreed to, the Company had 20,337,860
common shares issued and outstanding. In contemplation of the transaction with
Aero, the Company's two primary shareholders cancelled 9,337,860 shares of the
Company's common stock held by them, leaving 11,000,000 shares issued and
outstanding. As a result of the acquisition of Aero, there were 48,944,922
common shares outstanding, and the former Aero stockholders held approximately
78% of the Company's voting stock. For financial accounting purposes, the
acquisition was a reverse acquisition of the Company by Aero, under the purchase
method of accounting, and was treated as a recapitalization with Aero as the
acquirer. Accordingly, the historical financial statements have been restated
after giving effect to the May 30, 2003, acquisition of the Company. The
financial statements have been prepared to give retroactive effect to December
30, 2002, the date of inception of Aero, of the reverse acquisition completed on
May 30, 2003, and represent the operations of Aero. Consistent with reverse
acquisition accounting: (i) all of Aero's assets, liabilities, and accumulated
deficit, are reflected at their combined historical cost (as the accounting
acquirer) and (ii) the preexisting outstanding shares of the Company (the
accounting acquiree) are reflected at their net asset value as if issued on May
30, 2003.
Additionally, on June 30, 2003, the Company acquired the operating assets of
Dyna-Cam Engine Corp. ("Dyna-Cam"). Dyna-Cam was a development stage enterprise
developing a unique, axial cam-drive, free piston, internal combustion engine.
Dyna Cam intended to produce and sell the engine primarily for aircraft and
marine applications. Dyna-Cam had not generated significant revenues at the
time of the Company's acquisition.
The accompanying financial statements represent the consolidated financial
position and results of operations of the Company and includes the accounts and
results of operations of the Company and Aero, its wholly owned subsidiary, for
the period December 30, 2002, date of inception, to June 30, 2003. The purchase
of the operating assets of Dyna-Cam occurred on June 30, 2003 and the effect of
that purchase is included in the accompanying balance sheet at June 30, 2003.
There were no material results of operations of Dyna-Cam for the period ended
June 30, 2003. The consolidated entity is considered a development stage
enterprise as of June 30, 2003.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of
assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company faces many operating and industry challenges. The Company intends
to do business in a highly competitive industry. Future operating losses for
the Company are anticipated and the proposed plan of operations, even if
successful, may not result in cash flow sufficient to finance the initiation and
continued expansion of its business. These factors raise substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Realization of
assets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is
dependent upon management's plans to meet its financing requirements, as
discussed below, and the success of its future operations. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this
uncertainty.
A-7
The Company, under its new management, has raised over $1,000,000 in cash to
effect the acquisition of Dyna-Cam. Management believes that it has the ability
to raise additional capital adequate to complete the development of the Dyna-Cam
engine and begin revenue generating operations. Subsequent to June 30, 2003,
the Company raised additional capital of approximately $220,000.
Management believes the Company's capital restructuring and financing plans
along with the expected sale of engines will allow the Company to obtain
sufficient capital for operations and to continue as a going concern.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash includes all short-term highly liquid investments that are readily
----
convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three
months or less. At June 30, 30, 2003, the Company had not yet established its
own bank accounts. The Company's cash was held in a trust account with its
attorney's office.
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the
----------------------------
accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Aero Marine Engine
Corp. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.
Inventories consist of raw materials and purchased parts used in the
-----------
manufacturing of engines. The Company records its inventory at the lower of
cost (first-in, first-out) or market.
Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
----------------------
Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful
lives of the assets ranging from three to seven years. There was no depreciation
expense for the period ended June 30, 2003.
Income taxes: The Company provides for income taxes based on the provisions of
------------
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income
Taxes, which, among other things, requires that recognition of deferred income
taxes be measured by the provisions of enacted tax laws in effect at the date of
financial statements.
Financial Instruments: Financial instruments consist primarily of cash and
---------------------
obligations under accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amounts
of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of
the short maturity of those instruments. The Company has applied certain
assumptions in estimating these fair values. The use of different assumptions or
methodologies may have a material effect on the estimates of fair values.
A-8
Net loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of
-------------------
common stock outstanding during the year as prescribed by the provisions of SFAS
No. 128 Earnings Per Share.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
------------------
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Intangible Assets: Intangible assets are comprised of goodwill and certain
------------------
finite life intangible assets purchased in the acquisition of the Dyna-Cam
operating assets. These assets represent the value of the difference between
the purchase price of the acquired business and the fair value of the
identifiable tangible net assets. The Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The
Company does not amortize goodwill but rather annually evaluates the carrying
value of goodwill for impairment, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No.
142. The finite life intangibles will be amortized over 7 to 10 years. There
was no amortization expense for the period ended June 30, 2003 due to the
intangible assets being acquired on June 30, 2003.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
-----------------------------------------
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
With Exit or Disposal Activities". This Standard requires costs associated with
exit or disposal activities to be recognized when they are incurred. The
requirements of SFAS No. 146 apply prospectively after June 30, 2003, and as
such, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the impact of adopting these new
rules.
In October 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 147, "Acquisitions of Certain
Financial Institutions." SFAS No. 147 is effective October 1, 2002. The adoption
of SFAS No. 147 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial
statements.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," effective for contracts entered
into or modified after June 30, 2003. This amendment clarifies when a contract
meets the characteristics of a derivative, clarifies when a derivate contains a
financing component and amends certain other existing pronouncements. The
Company believes the adoption of SFAS No. 149 will not have a material effect on
the Company's financial statements.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150
is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31,
2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003. SFAS No. 150 requires the classification as a
liability of any financial instruments with a mandatory redemption feature, an
obligation to repurchase equity shares, or a conditional obligation based on the
issuance of a variable number of its equity shares. The Company does not have
any authorized preferred shares or other financial instruments with a mandatory
redemption feature. The Company believes the adoption of SFAS No. 150 will not
have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
A-9
In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" (FIN 45). FIN 45 clarifies the
requirements for a guarantor's accounting for and disclosure of certain
guarantees issued and outstanding. The initial recognition and initial
measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable to guarantees issued or modified
after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements of FIN 45 are effective
for financial statements for periods ending after December 15, 2002. The
adoption of FIN 45 did not impact the Company's financial statements.
In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities" (FIN 46). FIN No. 46 states that companies that have exposure to the
economic risks and potential rewards from another entity's assets and activities
have a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity and should
consolidate the entity, despite the absence of clear control through a voting
equity interest. The consolidation requirements apply to all variable interest
entities created after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities that
existed prior to February 1, 2003, the consolidation requirements are effective
for annual or interim periods beginning after June 15, 2003. Disclosure of
significant variable interest entities is required in all financial statements
issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest was
created. The adoption of FIN No. 46 did not have a material impact on the
Company's financial statements.
Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed by the Company for impairment
-------------------------------
whenever there is an indication that the carrying amount of the asset may not be
recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the
forecasted undiscounted cash flows generated by those assets to the assets' net
carrying value. The amount of impairment loss, if any, is measured as the
difference between the net book value of the assets and the estimated fair value
of the related assets.
3. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
On May 30, 2003, the Company exchanged 37,944,922 shares of its common stock for
all of the issued and outstanding shares of Aero Marine Engine Corp. As
discussed in Note1, Aero had no operations or material assets or liabilities at
the time of the acquisition. The exchange of shares resulted in the
shareholders of Aero obtaining control of the voting interest in the Company at
the time of the transaction. Additionally, Aero's management and board of
directors became the new management of the Company. The Company had no material
assets or operations at the time of the transaction. For financial accounting
purposes, the acquisition was a reverse merger and was treated as a
recapitalization with Aero as the acquirer.

issued in the transaction was determined to be $0.028 per share. This value
represents the per share price of the 37,944,922 shares issued for cash.The
aggregate purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the date of
acquisition. The excess consideration paid over the estimated fair value of the
net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired of $897,821 is

6. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.
The deferred tax consequences of temporary differences in reporting items for
financial statement and income tax purposes are recognized, if appropriate.
Realization of the future tax benefits related to the deferred tax assets is
dependent on many factors, including the Company's ability to generate taxable
income within the net operating loss period. The Company has considered these
factors in reaching its conclusion as to the valuation allowance for financial
reporting purposes.
A deferred tax liability of $5,714 existed as of June 30, 2003, pertaining to
differences in book and tax bases of equipment. Deferred tax assets totaling
$86,895 as of June 30, 2003 were offset by the $5,714 deferred income tax
liability and a valuation allowance of $81,261. The valuation allowance was
provided due to the uncertainty of future realization of federal and state net
operating loss carryforwards that give rise to approximately substantially the
entire net deferred income tax asset. The valuation allowance was increased by
$47,261 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003. Approximately $34,000 of
the deferred income tax asset relates to net operating losses generated in the
Company prior to its acquisition by Aero. Due to the change in ownership
control, the Company's ability to utilize that net operating loss is
significantly restricted. The Company has federal and state net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $236,000 as of June 30, 2003. The federal net
operating loss carryforwards expire in 2020 and state loss carryforwards expire
in 2007.
