Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2003
(Unaudited)

1.   Significant accounting policies
 
    Significant accounting policies of Regency Equities Corp. are set forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2002 together with certain procedural disclosures.
 
2.   Basis of reporting
 
    The balance sheet as of March 31, 2003, the statements of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2003, and the statements of cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, have been prepared by the Company without audit. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company at March 31, 2003 and the results of its operations and cash flow for the three month period then ended. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

    Real estate owned consists of a shopping center (the “Center”) located in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Approximately 12.5% of the Center is leased to a tenant on a month-to-month basis. Minimum rent in connection with this tenant is $3,500 per month. The remaining 87.5% of the Center is vacant.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of operations

During the first quarter of 2003, the Company recorded a loss of $65,431, before income taxes, compared to loss of $47,661 before income taxes for the same period in 2002. The increase in loss resulted principally from (i) a decrease in interest income of $3,381, (ii) an increase in insurance expense of $9,276 arising from increased insurance premiums, and (iii) an increase in legal fees of $5,496 due to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

    Not Applicable.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures.

    Within the 90-day period prior to the filing date of this report, an evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the

    Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in bringing to their attention on a timely basis material information relating to the Company that is required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports that are filed under the Exchange Act. Subsequent to the date that the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer completed their evaluation, there have not been any significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect such internal controls.
