PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
ADMIRAL FINANCIAL CORP. ("ADMIRAL"), an inactive corporation, is
currently seeking to recapitalize the Company in order to resume its prior
activities with respect to the acquisition and investment in interest-earning
assets and specialty real estate, as well as other new lines of business, as
yet unidentified. Admiral has been a plaintiff in an unsuccessful
Winstar-type action against the United States government in the United States
Court of Federal Claims since 1993.
This discussion may contain statements regarding future financial
performance and results. The realization of outcomes consistent with these
forward-looking statements is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties to
the Company including, but not limited to, the availability of equity capital
and financing sources, the availability of attractive acquisition
opportunities once such new equity capital and financing is secured (if at
all), the successful integration and profitable management of acquired
businesses, improvement of operating efficiencies, the availability of
working capital and financing for future acquisitions, the Company's ability
to grow internally through expansion of services and customer bases without
significant increases in overhead, seasonality, cyclicality, and other risk
factors.
Admiral is presently conducting virtually no business operation, other
than its efforts to effect a merger, exchange of capital stock, asset
acquisition, recapitalization, or other similar business combination (a
"Recapitalization") with an operating or development stage business which
Admiral considers to have significant growth potential. Admiral currently
receives no cash flow. Admiral anticipates no capital infusions prior to
effectuating a Recapitalization. Until such time as Admiral effectuates a
Recapitalization, with the exception of certain other professional fees
and costs for such a transaction, Admiral currently expects that it will
incur minimal future operating costs.
No officer or director of Admiral is paid any type of compensation by
Admiral and presently, there are no arrangements or anticipated arrangements
to pay any type of compensation to any officer or director in the near future.
Admiral expects that it will meet its cash requirements until such time as a
Recapitalization occurs. However, in the event Admiral depletes its present
cash reserves, or in the event that Admiral management ceases to perform it's
duties on a non-compensatory basis, Admiral may cease operations and a
Recapitalization may not occur. There are no agreements or understandings
of any kind with respect to any loans from officers or directors of Admiral
on the Company's behalf.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
Admiral Financial Corp.'s principal office is located in South Miami,
Florida. The Company is currently being allowed to share, free of charge,
certain office facilities and office equipment located at 7101 Southwest
67 Avenue, South Miami, Florida 33143. Admiral does not have any lease
obligations.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
On August 5, 1993, Admiral filed a Complaint against the United States of
America in the United States Court of Federal Claims, arising in part out of
contractual promises made to Admiral by the United States' Government, acting
through the Federal Home Loan Bank Board ("FHLBB") and the Federal Savings
and Loan Insurance Corporation ("FSLIC") pursuant to their statutory
supervisory authority over federally insured savings and loan institutions
and savings banks (hereinafter referred to a "thrifts" or "thrift
institutions"), and in part out of takings of property by the FHLBB and
FSLIC in the course of exercising that authority. This action was
originally stayed by order of the Court dated September 3, 1993, pending
the en banc decision on rehearing of the Court of Appeal for the Federal
Circuit in Winstar Corp., et al. v. United States, a pending action which
Admiral management believes to contain a similar fact pattern.
On August 30, 1995, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal
Circuit, in an en banc decision, affirmed the summary judgment decisions by
the Court of Federal Claims on the liability portion of the breach of
contract claims against the United States in Winstar, and in two other similar
cases (Statesman and Glendale) which had been consolidated for purposes of
the appeal. In its Winstar decisions, the Court of Federal Claims found that
an implied-in-fact contract existed between the government and Winstar, and
that the government breached this contract when Congress enacted FIRREA.
In Statesman and Glendale, that Court found that the Plaintiffs had express
4
contracts with the government which were breached by the enactment of FIRREA.
The federal government appealed the Winstar decisions to the United States
Supreme Court. On November 14, 1995, Admiral's action (and all other similar
actions) was stayed by order of the Court, pending the outcome of that appeal.
On July 1, 1996, the United States Supreme Court concluded in Winstar
that the United States is liable for damages for breach of contract,
affirmed the summary judgment decisions in Winstar, and remanded the
cases to the Court of Federal Claims for further hearings on the calculation
of damages. The majority of the Court found no reason to question the
Federal Circuit's conclusion that the Government had express contractual
obligations to permit respondents to use goodwill and capital credits in
computing their regulatory capital reserves. When the law as to capital
requirements changed, the Government was unable to perform its promises and
became liable for breach under ordinary contract principles.
Subsequent to the United States Supreme Court decision in Winstar, the
stay on Admiral's litigation proceedings has been lifted. Admiral's Motion
for Summary Judgment, together with several other motions, claims and
counter-claims filed by all the Parties to the litigation, were argued in
two hearings at the United States Court of Claims on December 18, 2001,
and on January 10, 2002.
On October 16, 2002, the Court granted the Admiral Motion for Summary
Judgment in part, by finding that the United States Government liable for
damages for breach of contract, pending the taking of testimony regarding a
possible prior material breach by Admiral. A trial was conducted during
December 2002, and testimony was taken regarding the value of the assets
originally contributed by Admiral, and the Government's arguments regarding
Admiral's prior material breach were heard by the Court. On August 1, 2003,
the Court held in favor of the United States Government, stating that Admiral
had committed a prior material breach when the Company did not meet the
minimum capital requirement at March 31, 1989, despite the fact that FIRREA
was enacted (on August 9, 1989) prior to the end of Admiral's "cure period"
(October 16, 1989), thereby making such a cure impossible to perform.
Admiral appealed, and the finding of the Court of Federal Claims was affirmed
in August 2004. Admiral will not pursue this litigation any further.
Admiral is not a party to any other legal proceedings.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER
MATTERS.
Admiral's common stock currently trades on the Over-The-Counter Market
(often referred to as the Pink Sheets) under the symbol ADFK.
On June 21, 1988, Admiral's common stock began trading on the National
Association of Securities Dealers Automatic Quotation System (NASDAQ) under
the symbol ADFC. In 1989, Admiral was notified by NASDAQ that Admiral's net
worth did not meet the minimum standards for listing on the NASDAQ National
Market System and that Admiral's stock would begin trading in the
"over-the-counter" market after September 30, 1989, if the minimum capital
standards were not met.
From September 30, 1989 until October 1999, Admiral's shares were listed
in the over-the-counter market on the OTC Bulletin Board. Admiral was
notified in October 1999 that as an inactive Company, trading on the OTC
Bulletin Board would no longer be allowed. There is currently no firm
making an active market in Admiral's stock. The Company was notified of a
change in the stock symbol from ADFC to ADFK in January 1999.
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the high and
low sales prices as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board.

Comparison of Years Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002
- ------------------------------------------------
Admiral was inactive, and recorded no revenues or expenses during either
period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Admiral is currently inactive. There is no corporate liquidity, no
available capital resources, and no immediately foreseeable prospects for the
future improvement of Admiral's financial picture.
Admiral management intends to seek a new line of business, as yet
unidentified. In connection therewith, Admiral's management believes that a
restructuring of Admiral may be necessary in order to raise capital for new
operations, and any such restructuring may have a substantial dilutive effect
upon Admiral's existing shareholders. Admiral has no ongoing commitments or
obligations other than with respect to its obligations related to the
acquisition and subsequent confiscation of Haven.

Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, based on management's
recommendations and evaluations of performance. No bonuses have been

Retirement Plan
No Admiral employee is currently covered under any form of retirement plan.
In prior years, Haven employees were covered under a non-contributory
trusteed pension plan, which was replaced by a contributory Section 401(k)
plan for Admiral and Haven employees on March 31, 1989. Employees were
permitted to contribute amounts up to 6% of their annual salary to this plan,
with the employer providing matching contributions at a rate of 50% of such

together with a discretionary contribution amount not exceeding 1% of

8

shares of authorized but unissued Common Stock for the future issuance of
option grants. Options granted under the Program can be in the form of
incentive options, compensatory options, stock appreciation rights,
performance shares, or any combination thereof.
There have been no grants of any rights or options to any director,
officer or employee of Admiral or any affiliate. The Company expects to
distribute such option grants in the event of any Recapitalization
transaction.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Board of Directors and shareholders of Admiral approved the 1988
Employee Stock Purchase Program on December 19, 1988, enabling the
directors, officers and employees of Admiral and its affiliates to acquire a
proprietary interest in Admiral's Common Stock through a payroll deduction
program. This plan has been suspended by Admiral management.
Employment Agreements
There are no employment agreements between Admiral and any of Admiral's
employees.
Indebtedness of Management
Admiral has made no loans to its directors, officers or employees.
Compensation of Directors
While each Director is entitled to receive $500 plus reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses for attending each meeting, each Director volunteered
to suspend the receipt of all director fees due to Admiral's current
financial condition, beginning with the meeting held during the third fiscal
quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 1989. This suspension of payments

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(1) Organization and Regulatory Matters
-----------------------------------
Admiral Financial Corp. ("Admiral") is inactive.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
------------------------------------------
(a) Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 2004 and 2003, include
references to the accounts of Admiral and the net assets and net
liabilities of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Haven Federal Savings and
Loan Association. All significant intercompany transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
(b) Office Properties and Equipment
-------------------------------
All office properties and equipment were sold when the offices of the
Company were closed during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1990, and the
proceeds from such sales are reflected as "other income."
(c) Income Taxes
------------
Admiral and its wholly-owned subsidiary file a consolidated tax return.
Taxes are provided on all income and expense items included in earnings,
regardless of the period in which such items are recognized for tax
purposes, except for income representing a permanent difference.
(d) Real Estate
-----------
Loss from real estate operations includes rental income, operating
expenses, interest expense on the related mortgages payable, gains on
sales, net and provision for estimated losses to reflect subsequent
declines in the net realizable value below predecessor cost.
Provisions for estimated losses on real estate are charged to earnings
when, in the opinion of management, such losses are probable. While
management uses the best information available to make evaluations,
future adjustments to the allowances may be necessary if economic
conditions change substantially from the assumptions used in making
the evaluations.
(e) Excess Cost Over Net Assets Acquired and Other Intangibles
----------------------------------------------------------
The excess cost over net assets acquired was amortized by the interest
method over the estimated lives of the long-term, interest-bearing
assets acquired. The remaining unamortized excess cost over net assets
acquired was written off at June 30, 1989 (see note 1).
(g) Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents
include the accounts of Admiral.

(3) Purchase Accounting
-------------------
At June 30, 1989, the remaining unamortized excess cost over net assets
acquired of $7,768,074 was written off and charged to operations
(see note 1).
(4) Income Taxes
------------
At June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company has estimated net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $10,447,000 and $10,447,000, respectively,
for Federal income tax purposes, and $10,095,000 and $10,095,000,
respectively, for state income tax purposes to offset future taxable
income. These carryforwards were scheduled to expire in future years as
follows:

============ =============
The Company has not filed its federal or Florida income tax returns for
the fiscal years ended June 30, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998,
1997, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991 and 1990.
The net operating loss carryforwards expiring through 1988 were
generated by the Association prior to its acquisition by Admiral
Financial Corp. and have been carried over at their original amounts
for income tax purposes. For financial statement purposes, these
purchased loss carryforwards will not be used to offset the future tax
expense of Admiral. They will be accounted for as an adjustment to
equity if and when a tax benefit is realized. At June 30, 2004 and
2003, such purchased loss carryforwards remaining amounted to
approximately $0 and $0, respectively.

(5) Commitments and Contingencies
-----------------------------
On August 5, 1993, Admiral filed a Complaint against the United States of
America in the United States Court of Federal Claims, arising in part out
of contractual promises made to Admiral by the United States' Government,
acting through the Federal Home Loan Bank Board ("FHLBB") and the Federal
Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation ("FSLIC") pursuant to their
statutory supervisory authority over federally insured savings and loan
institutions and savings banks (hereinafter referred to a "thrifts" or
"thrift institutions"), and in part out of takings of property by the
FHLBB and FSLIC in the course of exercising that authority.
On July 1, 1996, the United States Supreme Court concluded in Winstar
that the United States is liable for damages for breach of contract,
affirmed the summary judgment decisions in Winstar, and remanded the
cases to the Court of Federal Claims for further hearings on the
calculation of damages. The majority of the Court found "no reason to
question the Federal Circuit's conclusion that the Government had
express contractual obligations to permit respondents to use goodwill
and capital credits in computing their regulatory capital reserves.
When the law as to capital requirements changed, the Government was
unable to perform its promises and became liable for breach under
ordinary contract principles."
Admiral's Motion for Summary Judgment, together with several other
motions, claims and counter-claims filed by all the Parties to the
litigation, were argued in two hearings at the United States Court of
Claims on December 18, 2001, and on January 10, 2002.
On October 16, 2002, the Court granted the Admiral Motion for Summary
Judgment in part, by finding that the United States Government liable
for damages for breach of contract, pending the taking of testimony
regarding a possible prior material breach by Admiral. A trial was
conducted during December, 2002, and testimony was taken regarding the
value of the assets originally contributed by Admiral, and the
Government's arguments regarding Admiral's prior material breach were
heard by the Court. On August 1, 2003, the Court held in favor of the
United States Government, stating that Admiral had committed a prior
material breach when the Company did not meet the minimum capital
requirement at March 31, 1989, despite the fact that FIRREA was enacted
(on August 9, 1989) prior to the end of Admiral's "cure period"
(October 16, 1989), thereby making such a cure impossible to perform.
Admiral filed a Notice of Appeal in September, 2003, and the decision
of the lower court was affirmed in August 2004. There will be no further
appeal, and there will be no recovery by Admiral.
Admiral is not a party to any other legal proceedings.
