COMPANY

     Sunstyle Corporation is a Florida corporation whose only asset currently is its 100% ownership of Sunstyle Homes Corporation, which in turn has a consolidated subsidiary, Sunstyle Homes Corporation of Citrus County. The consolidated entity is hereafter collectively referred to as "Sunstyle" or the "Company". Sunstyle has been principally engaged in real estate acquisition and development and the construction of single family housing on the west coast of Florida.

     In May of 1991, the Company finished construction on its final house and ceased construction activities. During 1993 and 1992 the Company sold its remaining lots in Pinellas and Manatee counties to other developers and builders. During 1995, the company sold its office/storage building in Largo, Florida. The Company's President has continued to manage the affairs of the Company while pursuing other business interests.

     The Company is taking steps to liquidate and dissolve under Florida law by December 31, 2003.

SUNSTYLE CORPORATION

Item 7.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results           of Operation

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002, COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001

The Company's revenues of $2,274 for 2002 consisted of $2,274 interest earned on savings accounts. The Company's only activity in the year ended December 31, 2002, was administrative.

General and administrative expenses totaled $10,008 for the year ended December 31, 2002, resulting in net loss for the year of $7,734.

The Company's revenues of $7,132 for 2001 consisted of $7,132 interest earned on savings accounts. The Company's only activity in the year ended December 31, 2001, was administrative.

General and administrative expenses totaled $9,728 for the year ended December 31, 2001, resulting in net loss for the year of $2,596.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001, COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000

The Company's revenues of $7,132 for 2001 consisted of $7,132 interest earned on savings accounts. The Company's only activity in the year ended December 31, 2001, was administrative.

General and administrative expenses totaled $9,728 for the year ended December 31, 2001, resulting in net loss for the year of $2,596.

The Company's revenues of $11,493 for 2000 consisted of $11,493 interest earned on savings accounts. The Company's only activity in the year ended December 31, 2000, was administrative.

General and administrative expenses totaled $6,017 for the year ended December 31, 2000, combined with $2,730 of accounts payable, which were written off against expenses, resulting in a net income for the year of $8,206.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Due to continuing losses in a depressed market, the Company ceased construction activities and terminated all employees during May of 1991. All remaining real estate assets have been sold.

     The Company's liabilities are primarily to its former Parent in the form of an unsecured note ($255,000), interest on the note and other payables. The Company is currently negotiating the settlement of its outstanding debt to its former Parent.

     In addition to the uncertainty discussed above, the Company has sustained substantial net losses and has a deficit net worth at December 31, 2002 of $148,880. These issues raise considerable doubt as to the Company's ability to continue operations. The Company is taking steps to liquidate and dissolve under Florida law by December 31, 2003. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from any of the above events.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
 of Sunstyle Corporation
 St. Petersburg, Florida


     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sunstyle Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with accounting principles 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 consolidated 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 that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Sunstyle Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described more fully in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's substantial net losses and deficit net worth of $148,880 raise considerable doubt as to the Company's ability to continue operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments regarding this uncertainty.

SUNSTYLE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2002

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS:

     Sunstyle Homes Corporation ("Sunstyle") was incorporated in 1976 for the purpose
of purchasing and subdividing tracts of land for the sale of developed lots and the construction of single and multi-family residential units on the west coast of Florida.

     On August 25, 1988 the former Parent incorporated a new wholly-owned subsidiary, Sunstyle Corporation. All 500 shares of Sunstyle Homes Corporation were exchanged for 1,096,024 shares of Sunstyle Corporation. On the same date, the Board of Directors of the former Parent declared a distribution of Sunstyle Corporation's stock to shareholders of the former Parent in the form of a tax-free spin-off. The effective date of the spin-off was September 30, 1988 and the distribution was made on October 6, 1988. Sunstyle Corporation became a separate, publicly traded entity and has discontinued substantially all relationships with the former Parent.

     Sunstyle Corporation, including its consolidated subsidiaries consisting of Sunstyle and Sunstyle - Citrus, are collectively referred to as the "Company".

     Due to continuing losses in a depressed market, the Company terminated all employees and ceased construction activities in May of 1991. The Company, including all of its consolidated subsidiaries, is inactive. The Board of Directors is taking steps to liquidate and dissolve under Florida law by December 31, 2003.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Basis of Accounting

     The Company utilizes the accrual basis of accounting whereby revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized as obligations are incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

     It is the Company's policy to include all money market funds with an original maturity of three months or less in Cash and Cash Equivalents.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

     Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists principally of cash investments in excess of federally insured limits. The Company places its cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions and in a money market mutual fund that is managed by a wholly owned subsidiary of Raymond James Financial, Inc.


Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. These estimates are based on management's knowledge and experience. Accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.


Income Taxes

     The Company uses the liability method in accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.

     As of December 31, 2002, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $2,889,000 for tax purposes, which will expire beginning in 2003.

NOTE 3 - NOTES PAYABLE

     Notes payable at December 31, 2002 and 2001 consisted of the following:
                                             2002             2001
     Note payable to former Parent,         -----            - -----
     unsecured, principal payable on
     demand                            $  255,000       $  255,000
                                       ==========       ==========

     Sunstyle has an interest bearing demand note payable to Raymond James Financial, Inc., the Company's former parent. The note bears interest at prime plus one percent. Raymond James Financial, Inc. has an allowance for doubtful accounts for the total amount of the interest income receivable from Sunstyle, because they do not consider payment of the interest probable. For the same reason, no interest is being accrued on Sunstyle's books for the note payable. There is an understanding between the parties that the note will be paid, as cash becomes available or upon the Company's sale.

NOTE 4 - FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAXES:

Substantial losses have been sustained by the Company, which raise considerable doubt as to its ability to continue operations. As a result, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to benefit from the deferred tax asset which consists of tax loss carryforwards available as of December 31, 2002. Therefore, a valuation allowance has been established at the full amount of the deferred tax asset.

                                                    2002
                                                   - -----
       Deferred tax asset                      $ 1,165,384
       Less: valuation allowance                 1,165,384
                                                -----------
                                                         0
                                                ===========

The change in the valuation allowance during 2002 was as follows:

        Balance at beginning of year            $ 1,162,328
        Increase due to increase in deferred
        tax asset                                     3,056
                                                 -----------
        Balance at end of year                  $ 1,165,384
                                                 ===========


NOTE 5 - CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER EVENTS:

     The Company is currently negotiating the settlement of its outstanding debt to its former Parent. Although it is possible a settlement could result in the transfer of essentially all remaining assets to its former Parent, the effect of a final settlement cannot be determined at this time.

     In addition to the uncertainty discussed above, the Company has sustained substantial net losses and has a deficit net worth at December 31, 2002 of $148,880. These issues raise considerable doubt as to the Company's ability to continue operations. Management is taking steps to liquidate and dissolve under Florida law by December 31, 2003. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from any of the above events.

The compensation committee, which is now inactive, included Mr. James and a former director, Mr. Krusen.
