NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2003

(Unaudited)

TreeCon Resources, Inc., formerly Overhill Corporation and Polyphase Corporation (the “Company”), is a holding company that, through its subsidiaries, currently operates in forestry and timber related businesses. These operations are conducted through the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Texas Timberjack, Inc. (“Timberjack” or “TTI”) and TTI’s subsidiaries Southern Forest Products, LLC (“SFP”) and Wood Forest Products, LLC (“WFP”). Through these entities, the Company distributes, leases and provides financing for industrial and logging equipment and is also engaged in the harvesting and processing of timber products.

The Company’s Board of Directors, in August 2001, approved a plan to spin off all of its shares of Overhill Farms, Inc. (“Overhill Farms”) to the holders of the Company’s common stock. This spin-off was completed in October 2002. Overhill Farms has been accounted for as a discontinued operation in the accompanying financial statements

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the continuing operations of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its majority owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions were eliminated. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 Article 10 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, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Additionally, a nonrecurring adjustment was made to recognize a valuation allowance on parent company notes receivable from Mr. George Schrader and Mr. Michael Buck, who were directors until March 2004, and from an attorney who performed services for the Company and Overhill Farms, Inc. This adjustment reduced the carrying amount of the notes to the fair market value of the underlying collateral. The net effect of the adjustment was to reduce assets and increase SG&A expenses by $176,000. Of this amount, $128,000 is related to the note from the attorney and $48,000 is related to the notes from former directors. Operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30. 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30, 2003 or for any other period.

Table of Contents

TTI has a 49.9% ownership in a construction related limited liability company (the “LLC”), which is accounted for under the equity method. TTI’s initial capital investment in the LLC was nominal, and its investment in the LLC is comprised primarily of related party receivables arising from operating advances and financed equipment sales to the LLC, with such sales being transacted primarily at Texas Timberjack’s cost of acquiring the related equipment. During the nine months ended June 30, 2003, the net related party receivable from the LLC increased approximately $145,000 to $772,000. Additionally, we recorded a loss of approximately $175,000 relating to TTI’s investment in the LLC during the nine months ended June 30, 2003. During fiscal 2002, the LLC’s activities were substantially reduced and only minimal activity currently exists.

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000, in exchange for approximately $400,000 of raw timber inventory and the assumption of certain liabilities, SFP acquired all of the outstanding stock of Quantum Fuel & Refining, Inc. (“Quantum”) from TTI’s minority partner in SFP. Quantum’s assets consist primarily of a non-operating refinery in Egan, Louisiana. Liabilities assumed included a $1.0 million note payable, along with accrued interest, to Mr. Harold Estes, President of TTI. SFP acquired the assets of Quantum for resale and had classified the assets as held for sale since the date of acquisition. In February 2003, SFP sold 100% of the stock of Quantum back to TTI’s minority partner in SFP, and received in exchange the aforementioned minority partner’s 24.95% interest in SFP, which then became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TTI. No gain or loss resulted from this transaction.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Forward-Looking Statements

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to financial statements included elsewhere in this document. This report, together with our unaudited condensed financial statements and notes thereto, contain forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements, which generally include the plans and objectives of management for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to our future economic performance and management’s current beliefs regarding revenues we might earn if we are successful in implementing our business strategies.

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations or beliefs, including, but not limited to, statements concerning our operations and financial performance and condition. For this purpose, statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements which are predictive in nature, which depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, which include words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” or similar expressions. In addition, any statements concerning future financial performance (including future revenues, earnings or growth rates), ongoing business strategies or prospects, and possible future company actions, which may be provided by management, are

- 11 -

Table of Contents

also forward-looking statements. We caution that these statements by their nature involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of important factors, including, among others:

Risk Factors Related to Our Business and Industry

The Company is subject to various risks which could have a negative effect on the Company and its financial condition. These risks could cause actual operating results to differ from those expressed in certain “forward looking statements” contained in this Form 10-Q as well as in other Company communications. Before you invest in our securities you should carefully consider these risk factors together with all other information included in our publicly filed documents.

Logging Equipment Industry. The demand for our logging equipment products is directly related to the strength of the logging industry in East Texas. If the demand for timber declines, we will experience a decrease in product demand. A decline in demand for timber can occur due to national economic factors such as decreased construction starts or increased mortgage interest rates. A decline can also occur due to regional or local factors, such as extended bad weather or the closing of paper or saw mills that drive the East Texas logging economy.

We are the authorized distributor of Timberjack and Blount logging equipment. For continued success, we must offer equipment that is technologically advanced and competitively priced when compared to our competition. If our competitors begin to offer equipment with better, more efficient operation, we may be unable to maintain our sales volumes. Also, we must be able to meet or improve upon our competitors’ price and financing offerings.

- 12 -

Table of Contents

Timber and Wood Products Industry. Our ability to maintain profitability in the highly competitive timber and wood products industry is contingent upon continued strong demand for our lumber products. If lumber prices drop, we may not be able to sell our products at a profit. Lumber prices are influenced by factors that influence the strength of the construction industry, such as housing starts, interest rates, and overall economic conditions.

Our sawmill and wood treating plant have been in operation for many years, and more efficient equipment is now available. If our equipment must be replaced or upgraded, additional capital investment will increase our depreciation expense.

Overall Business. Our overall business and our reported results are affected by general economic and political conditions in the United States. This includes wars and other international conflicts and the threat thereof; actions by the United States Federal Reserve Board and other central banks, actions by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, actions by environmental regulatory agencies, including those related to engine emissions and the risk of global warming; actions by other regulatory bodies; actions by rating agencies, capital market disruptions, investor sentiment, inflation and deflation rates, interest rate levels, customer borrowing and repayment practices, and the number of customer loan delinquencies and defaults; actions of competitors, particularly price discounting; manufacturer production and technological difficulties, changes to accounting standards, the effects of terrorism and the response thereto; and legislation affecting the sectors in which we operate.

Note Payable to Related Party. We currently owe a related party (Mr. Harold Estes) $24,336,841 for a note payable that matured October 31, 2003 and was renewed and extended subsequent to year end to October 31, 2004. As the collateral pledged against the note payable to Mr. Estes represents all of our ownership of our only continuing operation, Mr. Estes’ foreclosure on this collateral would have an adverse effect on our ability to continue as a going concern.

Overview

Our strategy is to be the leading supplier of forestry equipment and timber products within our market territories. We intend to create value for our stockholders by continuing to execute our growth and operating strategies. We employ the following corporate strategies:

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported

- 13 -

Table of Contents

amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the audited financial statements that are included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2002.

We believe the following critical accounting policies are related to the more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition. We generally recognize revenue when products are shipped, which is when title and risk of loss pass to the buyer, or when services are performed, and provide for estimated returns and allowances at the time of sale. However, a portion of our business relates to the sale of equipment through installment sales contracts. Revenue is recognized on these accounts using the installment method due to frequent late payments, periodic repossessions and related uncertainty with respect to ultimate realization at the time of sale. Under the installment method, we record at the point of sale both a sale and a cost of sale for the total cost of the unit. We initially record gross profit in a deferred profit account to be recognized as proceeds are received, based on the relative percentage of transaction profit to sales price. Given the uncertainty with respect to ultimate collection, interest on installment contracts is recognized on a cash basis.

Allowance for Doubtful Receivables. We account for bad debts on accounts receivable using the reserve method. We establish allowance based on a percentage of parts sales, past bad debt experience, the makeup of the current portfolio and current market conditions. We establish allowances for doubtful notes receivable if, at the date of valuation, management believes it is probable that a loss exists in the portfolio based on an evaluation of the individual notes included in the portfolio, payment history, and the expected credit risk based on subject collateral, if any. We account for bad debts on sales contracts receivable using the reserve method. After reviewing economic conditions, as well as historical trends and collateral values, we evaluate our allowance for doubtful sales contracts based on the estimated loss exposure at any given time in the portfolio, which has historically not been significant in comparison to the total portfolio amount.

Our estimates involve a significant amount of judgment, particularly with respect to notes receivable, which are subject to various forms of collateral for which fair value is often not objectively attainable. Actual results could differ adversely from management estimates resulting in additional losses on receivables over and above the reserves provided. However, we believe our allowances for doubtful receivables are fairly stated as of June 30, 2003.

Inventories. Inventories of timber and construction equipment are valued at the lower of cost or market or, in the case of repossessed and used equipment, net realizable value, based upon the specific identification method. Inventories of raw timber and finished wood products are stated at the lower of average cost or market.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. When long-lived asset impairment indicators are present, we evaluate impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 144 by projecting undiscounted cash flows of the related assets over the remaining estimated useful lives of such assets. If undiscounted cash flow projections are insufficient to recover the carrying value of the long-lived assets under review, impairment is recorded for the amount, if any, by which the carrying value of such assets exceeds their fair values. Projections of undiscounted cash flows inherently involve management’s subjective estimates and assumptions regarding future expected operating results. Actual results could differ from management estimates

Income Taxes. We record deferred income taxes using the liability method to 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. Valuation allowances, if any, are established against deferred tax assets based upon whether or not management believes such assets are more likely than not to be recovered, which is a subjective determination based upon considerations of available positive and negative evidence. As of June 30, 2003, we have recorded a valuation allowance against all of our net deferred tax assets that relate to our continuing operations as we currently believe such amount is not likely to be recoverable given our recent history of operating losses.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No.150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Liabilities and Equity,” which is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. However, certain aspects of SFAS 150 have been deferred. SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for our classification of liabilities in the financial statements that have characteristics of both liabilities and equity. We will continue to review SFAS No. 150; however, we do not expect SFAS 150 to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” Under previous practices, certain entities were included in consolidated financial statements based upon controlling voting interests or in other special situations. Under Interpretation No. 46, certain previously unconsolidated entities will be required to be included in consolidated financial statements of the primary beneficiary, as defined. For variable interest entities, often referred to as special purpose entities, created after January 31, 2003, Interpretation No. 46 is effective immediately. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, of Interpretation No. 46 on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.” Interpretation No. 45 clarifies the requirement for recognition of a liability by a guarantor at the inception of the guarantee based on the fair value of a non-contingent obligation to perform. Interpretation No. 45 must be applied prospectively to guarantees entered into or modified after December 31, 2002. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact, if any, of Interpretation No. 45 on our consolidated financial statements.

On July 30, 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”, which requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The provisions of SFAS No. 146 are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In November 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (SFAS 144). These rules supersede FASB Statement No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of”, providing a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of. Although retaining many of the fundamental recognition and measurement provisions of Statement 121, the new rules significantly change the criteria that would have to be met to classify an asset as held-for-sale. Statement 144 also supersedes the provisions of APB Opinion 30 with regard to reporting the effects of a disposal of a segment of a business. The Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and interim periods within those fiscal years, although earlier application is encouraged. We adopted SFAS 144 as of October 1, 2001 and such adoption did not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Results of Operations

Three months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2002

Net Revenues. Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 increased $1,722,000 (20.5%) to $10,120,000 from $8,398,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002. The increase in revenues resulted from revenue increases at the Equipment segment, which was offset by a slight decline in the Timber unit’s revenues.

The Equipment segment’s net revenues were $6,739,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 as compared to $4,807,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2002, an increase of $1,932,000 (40.2%). The increase in sales was a result of a $2,390,000 increase in unit sales, which was partially offset by slight declines in parts, service, and interest income from sales contracts. The increase in unit sales was due to an improvement in the overall timber market and an improvement in weather conditions. As a result of the war with Iraq and an improvement in the US economy, the demand for timber products – plywood, dimension lumber, and Oriented Strand Board (OSB) increased significantly. Since weather conditions also improved from the prior quarter of 2003, our customers were able to work more and purchased more equipment to meet the overall increase in demand.

Timber net revenues were $3,381,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 as compared to $3,591,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2002, a decrease of $210,000 (5.8%). The decline in sales was due to a production decline during the prior quarter, which was caused by wet

- 16 -

Table of Contents

weather conditions. We were not able to obtain raw materials (logs) due to the rainy weather during the second quarter ended 2003, and the mill was closed for approximately three weeks. As a result of the shutdown, production was not able to keep up with demand during the third quarter ending June 30, 2003 resulting in a slight decline in sales.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 declined $720,000 (36.3%) to $1,262,000 from $1,982,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2002. The Equipment unit’s gross profit margin declined $791,000 (59.7%) to $535,000 for the third quarter fiscal 2003 from $1,326,000 for the third quarter fiscal 2002. The Timber unit’s gross profit increased $71,000 (10.8%) from $656,000 for the three months ending June 30, 2002 to $727,000 for the three months ending June, 2003.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 declined $380,000 (20.2%) to $1,500,000 (14.8% of net revenues) from $1,880,000 (22.4% of net revenues) for the third quarter of fiscal 2002. Due to a concerted effort to reduce personnel and operating expenses, SG&A declined $221,000 in the operating units. Additionally, parent company SG&A declined $159,000 from the same period in 2002, primarily due to the closing of the corporate office in Addison, Texas and the assignment of the investor relations function to Texas Timberjack’s existing personnel.

Operating Income. Operating income declined $338,000 (334.7%) to a loss of $237,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 from income of $101,000 for the third quarter fiscal 2002. The decline in operating income is the result of a decline in the gross profit margin, which was partially offset by an improvement in SG&A expenses. We intend to continue to reduce SG&A and manage our cost structure with increased emphasis on increasing gross profit margins as we seek to develop additional revenue opportunities.

Other Income/Expense. Total other income/expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 increased $814,000 (157.3%) to net income of $297,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 from a net expense of $517,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2002. This change is mostly due to a gain on the sale of timber and land totaling $845,000 experienced in the third quarter of fiscal 2003, a 100% increase in this type of income over the comparable quarter in 2002. Interest and other income declined $109,000 (121.1%) for the quarter, from $90,000 net income for the third quarter of 2002 to $19,000 net expense for the comparable quarter in 2003. The decline in interest and other income during the quarter ended June 31, 2003 was partly due to income from sale of dirt in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 amounting to $62,000. There were no dirt sales in the comparable period of fiscal 2003, resulting in a 100% decline in this type of revenue. This decline in income from dirt sales was partly offset by reduced losses related to Timberjack’s 49.9% investment in a construction company accounted for on the equity method. For the third quarter fiscal 2002, Timberjack recorded a loss of $165,000 related to Timberjack’s investment in the company as compared to a $124,000 loss for the third quarter fiscal 2003, an improvement of $41,000 (24.8%). Interest expense decreased $63,000 (10.3%) from $607,000 for the third quarter of 2002 to $544,000 for the same quarter in 2003. Interest expense increased due to refinancing of Harold Estes’ note during the first quarter fiscal 2003, but was offset by interest savings due to reductions of bank debt.

Net Loss. The net result for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 was income of $59,000 ($0.00 per share) as compared to a loss of $97,000 ($0.01 per share) for the third quarter of fiscal 2002.

Nine Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Nine Months Ended June 30, 2002

Net Revenues. For the nine months ended June 30, 2003, revenues increased $1,265,000 (4.6 %) to $29,015,000 as compared to $27,750,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2002.

The Equipment unit recognized a $1,661,000 (8.8%) increase in revenues from $18,884,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 to $20,545,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily due to an increase in equipment revenue ($2,516,000 increase from fiscal 2002 to fiscal 2003), partially offset by declines in parts revenue ($334,000 decline from fiscal 2002 to fiscal 2003), service revenue ($234,000 decline from fiscal 2002 to fiscal 2003) and interest income from sales contracts ($287,000 decline from fiscal 2002 to fiscal 2003). Although new equipment sales increased from June 30, 2002 to June 30, 2003, the continued softness in the timber industry plus wet weather conditions contributed to the decline in parts, service, and installment contract revenue.

The Timber segment reported a $396,000 decline in revenues from $8,865,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 to $8,469,000 for the comparable period. As previously discussed, the East Texas area received an unusually high amount of rainfall during the second quarter of fiscal 2003. Due to the high rainfall, the sawmill was closed for approximately three weeks because we were not able to obtain raw materials (logs). This caused our production to decline substantially, which in turn resulted in a decline in revenues.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the nine months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $1,905,000 (30.5%) to $4,334,000 from $6,238,000 for the comparable period in 2002. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues decreased to 14.9% in 2003 as compared to 22.5% for the same period in 2002. The gross profit decrease is mostly related to the decision to wholesale our slower moving inventory. Competitive pressures also contributed to the decline in the Equipment Unit’s gross profit.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $469,000 to $5,045,000 (17.4% of revenues) from $ 5,515,000 (19.9 % of revenues) for the comparable period in 2002. Due to a concerted effort to reduce personnel and operating expenses, SG&A declined approximately $423,000 in the operating units during the nine month period, when compared with the same period in 2002. In addition, parent company SG&A decreased $46,000 from the same period in 2002. The parent company decrease is primarily due to savings experienced due to the closing of the corporate office in Addison, Texas and the assignment of the investor relations function to Texas Timberjack’s existing personnel. These savings were partially offset by legal expenses incurred in connection with the defense of our class action lawsuit during the first quarter fiscal 2003. Also, in connection with the completion of the spin-off of Overhill Farms, we provided for a $48,000 collectibility reserve against the notes receivable from Messrs. Michael Buck and George Schrader, who were directors of the Company until March 2004. Additionally, we established a $128,000 reserve against a note receivable from an attorney who performed services for the Company and Overhill Farms, Inc.

Operating Income. Operating income declined $1,435,000 (198.4%) to a loss of $712,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2003 from income of $724,000 for the comparable period in 2002. The decline in operating income is the result of a decline in the gross profit margin, which was partially offset by an improvement in SG&A expenses. We intend to continue to reduce SG&A and manage our cost structure with increased emphasis on increasing gross profit margins as we seek to develop additional revenue opportunities.

Other Income/Expense. Total other income/expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2003 improved $892,000 (50.1%) to $861,000 net expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2003 from $1,753,000 net expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2002. This change is mostly due to a gain on the sale of timber and land totaling $845,000 experienced in the third quarter of fiscal 2003, a 100.0% increase in this type of income over the nine months ended June 30, 2002. For the nine months ended June 30, 2003, interest and other income improved $21,000 (42.9%) to $28,000 net expense in the current year from $49,000 net expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2002. The improvement in interest and other income was partly due to a decline in losses related to Timberjack’s 49.9% owned investment in Tony Currie Construction, LLC, which is accounted for on the equity method. For the nine months ended June 30, 2003, Timberjack recorded a loss of $175,000 related to Timberjack’s investment in the LLC as compared to a loss of $628,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2002, an improvement of $453,000 (72.1%). This improvement was partly offset by a decline in dirt sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 of $62,000. There were no dirt sales in the comparable period of fiscal 2003, resulting in a 100% decline in this type of revenue. Interest expense decreased $10,000 (0.6%) to $1,693,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 2003, from $1,703,000 expense in the comparable period in the prior year. This decrease is mostly due to additional interest expense resulting from the refinancing of Harold Estes’ note during the first quarter of fiscal 2003, offset by interest savings due to reductions of bank debt.

Net Loss. The net result for the first nine months of fiscal 2003 was a net loss of $1,639,000 ($.09 per share) as compared to a loss of $413,000 ($.02 per share) for the first three quarters of fiscal 2002.

We currently expect to improve on our operating results, and hope to return to profitable operations, primarily through (a) improving gross margins achieved by raising our pricing structure on equipment sales (b) growing revenues on profitable equipment lines (c) increasing production and cost efficiencies at the sawmill operations (d) reducing raw timber inventory costs at the sawmill operations (e) reducing SG&A expenses in both segments and (f) pursuing profitable investments relating to the timber industry.

We may be unable to improve our operating results if we continue to suffer softness in the East Texas timber market, which affects demand for equipment. Market conditions and weather patterns may affect the cost of timber as well as the market for our equipment. Our business may also suffer other adverse changes, such as the impact of competitive products and pricing.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and additional financing capacity. Our cash and cash equivalents decreased by $1,181,000 to $1,147,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 2003.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2003, our operating activities resulted in cash provided of $4,030,000, as compared to cash provided of $4,900,000 during the first nine months of fiscal 2002. During the current period, the cash provided resulted primarily from a $2,298,000 reduction in accounts receivable and a $1,702,000 reduction in inventories. As of June 30, 2003, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $6,606,000, resulting from the reclassification to current liabilities of our note and accrued interest to Mr. Estes, which matures in October 2003 and has been renewed through October 2004.

During the first nine months of fiscal 2003, our investing activities resulted in a use of cash of approximately $292,000, as compared to a use of cash of $101,000 during the first nine months of fiscal 2002. Our use of cash in the current year resulted from capital expenditures of $689,000, of which $365,000 of the capital expenditures related to the installation of a dry kiln at our treating plant in Houston, Texas and $269,000 related to equipment purchased at our sawmill in Bon Wier, Texas. Other cash uses included increases of $120,000 in notes receivables and increases of $354,000 in related party receivables, which were reduced by $870,000 proceeds from asset sales. The $354,000 increase in related party receivables resulted mostly from a $320,000 advance to Tony Currie Construction, LLC, for the nine months ended June 30, 2003.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2003, our financing activities resulted in a use of cash of approximately $4,918,000, as compared to a use of cash of $3,892,000 during the first nine months of fiscal 2002. The use of cash in the current year resulted from significant reductions in both long and short-term indebtedness.

We believe that funds available to us from operations and existing capital resources will be adequate for our operating and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months. Our note payable to Mr. Harold Estes, in the amount of $22.3 million plus accrued interest, matured on October 31, 2003. Subsequent to October 31, 2003, we agreed with Mr. Estes to a further extension of the maturity date to October 31, 2004, under substantially the same terms and conditions except for a reduction of the interest rate to 5% from 9%. Interest payable to Mr. Estes as of October 31, 2003, totaling approximately $2.1 million, will be added to the principal of the refinanced note. As the collateral pledged against the note payable to Mr. Estes represents all of our ownership of our only continuing operation, Mr. Estes’ foreclosure on such collateral upon maturity or thereafter would have a material adverse effect on our ability to continue as a going concern.

Following is a summarization of our contractual obligations at June 30, 2003:

Future debt maturities at June 30, 2003:

Other contractual obligations at June 30, 2003:

In addition to the contractual obligations mentioned above, at June 30, 2003, we had open purchase orders for equipment to be delivered in the subsequent quarter totaling approximately $391,000.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk – Obligations. We are currently subject to interest rate risk on variable interest rate obligations. A hypothetical 10% increase in average market interest rates would increase annual interest expense on currently outstanding debt by approximately $11,000. We are also subject to interest rate risk on our fixed interest rate obligations. Based upon outstanding amounts of fixed rate obligations as of June 30, 2003, a hypothetical 10% decrease in average market interest rates would increase the fair value of outstanding fixed rate debt by approximately $73,000.

We do not own, nor do we have an interest in, any other market risk sensitive instruments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company was late in filing its Form 10-Q reports for the quarters ended December 31, 2002, March 31, 2003, and June 30, 2003, and its Form 10-K report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2003. At the time such reports were due, the Company had a different Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer. The current Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer were appointed and elected in March, 2004.

The spin-off of Overhill Farms in October 2002 and the concurrent resignation of William Shatley, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer at the time, left the Company with only its Chief Executive Officer, who remained with the Company without pay to aid in transition, two additional Board Members and no paid employees. The CEO subsequently resigned in December 2003. This shortage of personnel and the resignation of the Company’s auditors in November 2003 prevented the Company from filing the reports in a timely manner. The Company was without outside auditors until March, 2004 when Langley, Williams and Company was engaged, and at which time the Company was able to gather the information necessary to complete and file the late reports.

The information gathered included a note dated November 1, 2002 from an attorney who had performed work for Overhill Farms, Inc. and the Company. The $262,350 note is secured by an unperfected lien on 86,000 shares of Overhill Farms Inc. stock, a former subsidiary of the Company that was spun off in October 2002. The Company has written down the note to the value of the stock. In evaluating the Company’s controls and procedures, management concluded that the controls and procedures that allowed the loan evidenced by the note to be made were not adequate. Since that time the Company has implemented enhanced control measures. These measures have included instituting Board approval procedures for loans and other significant actions and increasing controls on bank accounts.

The Company also conducted an evaluation of its disclosure controls and procedures taking into account matters covered by the letter to the Audit Committee included in the Report to the Board of Directors issued by Ernst & Young, L.L.P. in connection with the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002. The letter stated that none of the financial accounting personnel have extensive experience with the rules and regulations of the SEC, and none of them were devoted solely to the financial reporting function. In response to the letter from Ernst & Young, L.L.P. the Company has taken the following actions and is commencing initiatives to address these issues including:

The Company will continue to evaluate the effectiveness of its controls and procedures on an ongoing basis and will implement further actions as necessary in its continuing efforts to strengthen its control process.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s senior management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of the date of this report. Based upon that evaluation, combined with a consideration of the additional procedures described above, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the filing date of this report the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act has been recorded, processed, summarized and reported as required.

Changes to Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than as described above, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
