Regency Equities Corp.
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2003
(Unaudited)

1.    Significant accounting policies
 
     Significant accounting policies of Regency Equities Corp. (the Company) 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.
 
     In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies accounting and reporting for derivative instruments and hedging activities under SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” SFAS No. 149 is effective for derivative instruments and hedging activities entered into or modified after September 30, 2003, except for certain forward purchase and sale securities. For these forward purchase and sale securities, SFAS No. 149 is effective for both new and existing securities after September 30, 2003. This statement is not applicable to the Company.
 
     In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.” SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures in its statement of financial position certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. In accordance with the standard, financial instruments that embody obligations for the issuer are required to be classified as liabilities. SFAS No. 150 will be effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and otherwise will be effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. This statement is not applicable to the Company.
 
2.    Basis of reporting
 
     The balance sheet as of September 30, 2003, the statements of operations for the three month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 and the nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and the statements of cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 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 with 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 statement presentation. 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 September 30, 2003 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three month and nine month periods 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. The results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be affected for the year ending December 31, 2003.
 
3.    Rental property
 
     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

        (1)    During the third quarter of 2003, the Company recorded a loss of $50,520 before income taxes compared to a loss of $39,944 for the same period of 2002. The increase in loss resulted principally from (i) a decrease in interest income of $4,004, (ii) an increase in insurance expense of $9,063 arising from an increased insurance premium, and (iii) an increase in miscellaneous repairs of $2,154. This was offset by a decrease in directors fees due to the resignation of two board members.
 
        (b)    During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company recorded a loss of $172,715 before income taxes compared to a loss of $124,554 for the same period of 2002. The increase in loss resulted principally from (i) a decrease in interest income of $10,628, (ii) an increase in insurance expense of $27,614 arising from an increase in insurance premium, and (iii) an increase in legal fees of $6,236 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.
 
     Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), the Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
