The Company would like to caution certain readers regarding certain forward-looking statements in this documents and in all if its communications to shareholders and others, on managements projections, estimates and all other communications. Statements that are based on managements projections, estimates and assumptions are forward-looking statements, the words believe, expect, anticipate, intend and similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements. While the Company believes in the veracity of all statements made herein, forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates, and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies and know and unknown risks. Many of the uncertainties and contingencies can affect events and the Company's actual results and could cause its actual results to differ materially from this expressed in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf, of the Company.

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

    S3 Investment Company, Inc. ("the Company" or "SEIH") was incorporated under the laws of California under the name of Retail Windows, Inc. on April 19, 2000 to engage in any lawful activity as shall be appropriate under laws of the State of California. On June 30, 2001 the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to Axtion Foods, Inc. Prior to April 2003, Axtion Foods, Inc. was engaged in the development, manufacturing and distribution of health bars and health drinks. The business plan was not fully implemented and on April 16, 2003 Axtion Foods, Inc. changed its name to S3I Holdings, Inc. and pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement (Agreement) closed the definitive agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Securesoft Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation, making Securesoft Systems, Inc (Securesoft) a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and exchanging all of Securesoft's capital stock for shares of Company's authorized but un-issued shares of common stock as provided in Agreement.

    Further in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, the controlling shareholders of the Company surrendered their stock in exchange for transfer of all right, title and interest to the sports nutrition products developed by the company since its inception. In accordance with the agreement, it was the intention of the parties that the company would acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Securesoft in exchange solely for the number of shares of the Company's authorized but un-issued common stock and that the exchange qualify as a tax-free reorganization under section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and related sections there under; and the exchange qualify as a transaction in securities exempt from registration or qualification under the Securities Act of 1933 and under the applicable securities laws of each state or jurisdiction where the shareholders reside.

    Securesoft Systems, Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary, was incorporated in September 1999. Securesoft develops, markets and sells enterprise compliance and risk management software solutions enabling clients to ensure that privacy, ebusiness and security policies remain aligned with regulatory requirements, and an organization's business strategies and performance goals. The Securesoft software provides a structured approach that combines knowledge of current business processes and systems, an understanding of related legislation and the use of cohesive teams that are experienced with the issues and objectives surrounding compliance. Securesofts implementation services include compliance gap analysis, risk management, cost benefit analysis, implementation strategies and monitoring.

    On April 12, 2004 the Company's Board of Directors elected to be regulated as a business investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a business development company ("BDC"), the Company is required to maintain at least 70% of its assets invested in "eligible portfolio companies", which are loosely defined as any domestic company which is not publicly traded or that has assets less than $4 million. As of September 30, 2004 the Company's sole portfolio investment was Securesoft Systems, Inc., of which it owned 100% of the capital stock.

    In June of 2004 the office was moved to Temecula, California and administrative changes were made to help cut overhead and concentrate on adding portfolio companies that are cash flow positive. Continued efforts in this regard have culminated in the resignation of Wayne Yamamoto as Chief Executive Officer and the appointment of Chris Bickel as Chief Executive Officer in September of 2004. On October 12, 2004 the Company changes it's name to S3 Investment Company, Inc. to properly reflect the nature of its business.

Investment Strategy

    S3 Investment Company, Inc. intends to make strategic investments in cash-flow positive companies with perceived growth potential. The Investment Committee has adopted a charter wherein these two criteria a weighed against other criteria including strategic fit, investment amount, management ability, etc. In principle, the Company will prefer to make investments in companies where S3I can acquire at least a 51% ownership interest in the outstanding capital of the portfolio company.

3


    As a Business Development Company, the Company is required to have at lease 70% of its assets in "eligible portfolio companies." It is stated in the Investment Committee Charter that the Company will endeavor to maintain this minimum asset ratio.

Portfolio Investments

    The Company presently has one portfolio investment: Securesoft Systems, Inc., a Delaware company specializing in the development, and marketing of compliance and risk management software solutions. The Company owns 100% of the common stock of Securesoft Systems, Inc., which it acquired in exchange for 20,076,644 shares of the Company's common stock on April 16, 2003. As of June 30, 2004, the Company's investment in Securesoft Systems, Inc. was valued at $0.00 in recognition of Securesoft's history of losses and current liabilities

SECURESOFT SYSTEMS, INC.

    During the last fiscal year, ending June 30, 2004, Securesoft experienced a severe decline in sales. This was due to management dropping its sales effort and trying to make changes to its software. As a result the software product became unstable and sales were not possible. New management was brought in and focus was placed on the development of new software (immunity 2.0), which is not yet finished at this time. Delays associated with the development of this new software program added to the lack of revenues.

    The Immunity 2.0 software is being developed with the intent to market to larger health care facilities, as well as to companies in the financial, banking, and insurance industries. Companies within these industries are required by law to comply with a number of federal regulations. Immunity 2.0 can be used as a compliance program across regulations and across industries. Completion of the new software is scheduled for November of 2004. The most recent management change has stepped up its efforts to form partnerships and marketing alliances so that when the new product is ready for the market the market will be ready for it. The focus of the company will be to find reseller and distribution partners who will be able to sell Immunity 2.0 as part of their overall compliance solution. This will add value to our reseller and distribution partners, as well as provide a revenue stream for Securesoft, without adding additional overhead to our operational budget. Securesoft plans to focus its initial efforts in the healthcare industry, before branching out to the insurance and financial sectors.

Employees

    Exclusive of Securesoft operations, S3 Investment Company, Inc. presently has two employees who serve in administrative positions. Management intends to hire additional employees only as needed and as funds are available. In such cases compensation to management and employees will be considered with prevailing wages for services rendered.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

    S3 Investment, Inc. subleases approximately 2,337 square feet in Temecula, CA which serves as the headquarters for both S3 Investment Company, Inc. and Securesoft Systems, Inc.. The Company uses this space on a month-to-month basis as part of its management contract with Javelin Advisory Group.

    Management believes that its facilities are adequate for its present business.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

    There are a number of cases pending involving S3 Investment Company, Inc. and/or Securesoft Systems, Inc. The following is a complete list.

    Securesoft was named as a defendant in a case entitled I-Sol, Inc. V. Securesoft Systems, Inc. The matter was submitted to binding arbitration before a JAMS Judge of the Orange County Superior Court on August 15, 2003. Judgment was awarded to the plaintiff in the amount of $77,000.00. The Company is presently seeking a settlement with the plaintiff for a lesser amount.

    S3I Holdings, Inc and Securesoft were named defendants in a case entitled Fink and Villella V. Yamamoto, Berlandier, Luke Zouvas, Mark Zouvas, S3I and Securesoft. Fink and Villella filed complaint on November 20, 2003 and filed amended complaint on April 16, 2004. S3I filed a counterclaim on May 18, 2004 against Villella and on August 16, 2004 Villella was dismissed out of the case. Fink has continued to pursue the action. The Company and its counsel feel that this case will be dismissed within the next month based on the facts. S3I Holdings, Inc was plaintiff in a case entitled S3I Holdings, Inc. v. Fink. S3I Holdings filed a complaint in October 10, 2003 for injunctive relief, misrepresentation and fraud. The action was taken to stop the illegal sale of stock. The action was taken too late and the sale of stock took place. Any amount that would have been due Fink was more than offset by the stock sale.

4


    S3I Holdings, Inc. and Securesoft were named defendants in a case entitled Radford v. Yamamoto, Berlandier, S3I, Securesoft and Grant. Radford filed complaint on February 10, 2004 alleging nonpayment of back wages. Defendants answered the complaint on July 9,2004. Stipulated mediation before an arbitrator will be completed by November 29, 2004. The Company feels the claim is baseless and that it will receive a favorable ruling.

    Securesoft was named defendant in a case entitled Kim Anderson v. Securesoft Systems, Inc. Securesoft failed to answer complaint and a Court Judgment was awarded in favor of the defendant in the amount of $66,323.92. This amount is for back office rent. The Company is seeking to settle with the plaintiff for a lesser amount.

    S3I Holdings was named defendant in a case entitled Professional Traders Fund, LLC v. S3I Holdings, Inc, and Luke Zouvas. A judgment was rendered against S3I and Zouvas by the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the amount of $274,239.60. The court is at this time reviewing this judgment based on the fact that the award to the plaintiff was based on forged documents. The Company and its counsel are confident that this judgment will be dismissed.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

    A special meeting of shareholders of S3 Investments Company, Inc. was held on October 12, 2003 where the following actions were taken by a majority vote of shareholders:

1. The Company's Articles of Incorporation were amended:
a. To authorize 2,020,000,000 shares of capital stock of the company, of which 2 billion will relate to common stock, subject to further designation by the Board of Directors of the company, and 20 million will relate to preferred stock, subject to further designation by the Board of Directors of the Company.

c. To permit action upon the written consent of less than all shareholders of the Company.
d. To authorize the Company's Board of Directors, without the consent of the stockholders of the corporation, to adopt any recapitalization affecting the outstanding shares of capital stock of the corporation by effecting a forward or reverse split of all of the outstanding shares of any class of capital stock of the corporation, with appropriate adjustments to the corporation's capital accounts, provided that the recapitalization does not require any amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the corporation

Holders of record

    As of June 30, 2004 there were approximately 154 holders of record of the Company's common stock.

Dividends

    The Company has never paid a cash dividend on its common stock. Payment of dividends is at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors plans to retain earnings, if any, for operations and does not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

    Except as otherwise noted, the securities described in this Item 5 were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. Each such issuance was made pursuant to individual contracts which are discrete from one another and are made only with persons who were sophisticated in such transactions and who had knowledge of and access to sufficient information about the Company to make an informed investment decision. Among the information provided was the fact that the securities issued were restricted securities. No commissions were paid in connection with the transactions described below unless specifically noted.

    From July 1, 2003 through October 13, 2004 the following unregistered securities were issued:

    Between December 1, 2003 and June 30, 2004 the company issued convertible debentures in the amount of $729,000.00. All debentures are due within six months of issue and carry a rate of interest of eight percent (8%) per year on the unpaid principal. The holders of the debentures are entitled, at their option, to convert the principal amount of these debentures plus accrued interest into shares of the Company's common stock at a price per share equal to a 50% discount to current market. In the event of bankruptcy all debentures convert to shares of common stock.

    Between April 1, 2004 and June 30, 2004 the company issued 13,910490 shares of common stock upon the conversion of $249,000.00 of these convertible debentures. The stock was issued under a regulation E exemption.

    Between July 1, 2004 and October 13, 2004 the company issued 82,200,000 shares of common stock upon the conversion of $470,000.00 of these convertible debentures. The stock was issued under a regulation E exemption.

    As of June 30, 2004 S3 Investment Company, Inc had 38,039,687 shares of common stock outstanding.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

    The following information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

Plan of Operation

    On April 12, 2004 the Company's Board of Directors elected to be regulated as a business investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a business development company ("BDC"), the Company is required to maintain at least 70% of its assets invested in "eligible portfolio companies", which are loosely defined as any domestic company which is not publicly traded or that has assets less than $4 million.

    As of April 28, 2004, management has recognized that there is a deficiency in liquidity. Such deficiency has been noted in the notes to the financial statements and the audit opinion. To remedy this situation, the Board of Directors authorized management to file Form 1-E with the Commission notifying of its intent to sell up to $5 million of the Company's common stock under a Regulation E exemption.

    S3 Investment Company, Inc. presently has one portfolio investment, Securesoft Systems, Inc. No additional portfolio investments were made this past year. Management anticipates making additional portfolio investments as opportunities present themselves in the coming year.

6


    Currently, there are no commitments for material expenditures. It should be noted that the Company's auditors Chisholm & Associates have expressed in their audit opinion letter that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

    In October of 2004 S3 Investment Company, Inc. signed a management contract with Javelin Advisory Group to provide administrative services. Javelin will provide services such as accounting, public relations, and various other administrative functions as well as office rent. This service will eliminate virtually all overhead costs plus it will free up present staff to concentrate on revenue generating activities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    The Company's financial statements present an impairment in terms of liquidity. As of June 30, 2004 the Company had $121,391 in current assets and the Company's total assets exceeded total liabilities by approximately $303,512. The Company has accumulated $609,924 of net operating losses through June 30, 2004, which may used to reduce taxes in future years through 2022. The use of these losses to reduce future income taxes will depend on the generation of sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carry-forwards. The potential tax benefit of the net operating loss carry-forwards have been offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. The Company has not yet established revenues to cover its operating costs. Management believes that the Company will soon be able to generate revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs through the acquisition of operating subsidiaries. In the event the Company is unable to do so, and if suitable financing is unavailable, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Results of Operation

    For the year ended June 30, 2004 the Company had a net loss of $609,924 compared to a net loss of $674,162 for six months ended June 30, 2003 and a $56,569 profit for the year ended December 31, 2002. During the fiscal year, ending June 30, 2004, Secursoft experienced a severe decline in sales. This was due to a number of factors not the least of which was destabilizing the software product itself. Focus and effort was then placed on the development of new software, which is scheduled for completion in November 2004.

    The new software, Immunity 2.0, is compliance and risk management software that will be marketed to larger health care facilities, as well as to companies in the financial, banking, and insurance industries. The marketing effort will focus on working with resellers and distribution partners who will sell Immunity 2.0 as part of their overall compliance solution. By partnering with these marketing specialists we can generate revenue without having to develop own marketing team. This will allow us to keep overhead low and allow us to concentrate on product enhancement and service implementation.

RISK FACTORS
 

We are subject to various risks that may materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this filing before deciding to purchase our common stock. If any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

We Have Historically Lost Money and Losses May Continue in the Future

We have historically lost money. The combined loss for the year ending June 30, 2004 was approximately $609,924 and future losses are likely to occur. Accordingly, we may experience significant liquidity and cash flow problems if we are not able to raise additional capital as needed and on acceptable terms. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in reaching or maintaining profitable operations.

We Will Need to Raise Additional Capital to Finance Operations

Our operations have relied almost entirely on external financing to fund our operations. Such financing has historically come from a combination of borrowings and from the sale of common stock and assets to third parties. We will need to raise additional capital to fund our anticipated operating expenses and future expansion. Among other things, external financing will be required to cover our operating costs. We cannot assure you that financing whether from external sources or related parties will be available if needed or on favorable terms. The sale of our common stock to raise capital may cause dilution to our existing shareholders. Our inability to obtain adequate financing will result in the need to curtail business operations. Any of these events would be materially harmful to our business and may result in a lower stock price.

There is Substantial Doubt About Our Ability to Continue as a Going Concern Due to Recurring Losses and Working Capital Shortages, Which Means that We May Not Be Able to Continue Operations Unless We Obtain Additional Funding

The report of our independent accountants on our June 30, 2004 financial statements included an explanatory paragraph indicating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring losses and working capital shortages. Our ability to continue as a going concern will be determined by our ability to obtain additional funding. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Our Common Stock May Be Affected By Limited Trading Volume and May Fluctuate Significantly

Prior to this offering, there has been a limited public market for our common stock and there can be no assurance that an active trading market for our common stock will develop. As a result, this could adversely affect our shareholders' ability to sell our common stock in short time periods, or possibly at all. Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations that could adversely affect the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. Substantial fluctuations in our stock price could significantly reduce the price of our stock.

Our Common Stock is Traded on the "Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board," Which May Make it More Difficult For Investors to Resell Their Shares Due to Suitability Requirements

Our common stock is currently traded on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB) where we expect it to remain for the foreseeable future. Broker-dealers often decline to trade in OTCBB stocks given that the market for such securities is often limited, the stocks are more volatile, and the risk to investors are greater. These factors may reduce the potential market for our common stock by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in our common stock to sell shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them. This could cause our stock price to decline.

We Could Fail to Retain or Attract Key Personnel

Our future success depends, in significant part, on the continued services of Chris Bickel our Chief Executive. We cannot assure you that we would be able to find an appropriate replacement for key personnel. Any loss or interruption of our key personnel's services could adversely affect our ability to develop our business plan. We have no employment agreements or life insurance on Mr. Bickel.

California Law and Our Charter May Inhibit a Takeover of Our Company That Stockholders May Consider Favorable

Provisions of California law, such as its business combination statute, may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company. As a result, these provisions could limit the price some investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

 8


Our Officers and Directors Have the Ability to Exercise Significant Influence Over Matters Submitted for Stockholder Approval and Their Interests May Differ From Other Stockholders

Our executive officers and directors have the ability to appoint a majority to the Board of Directors. Accordingly, our directors and executive officers, whether acting alone or together, may have significant influence in determining the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to our Board for approval, including issuing common and preferred stock, and appointing officers, which could have a material impact on mergers, acquisitions, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of these board members may differ from the interests of the other stockholders.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR OPERATION AS A
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT COMPANY
 

We May Change Our Investment Policies Without Further Shareholder Approval

Although we are limited by the Investment Company Act of 1940 with respect to the percentage of our assets that must be invested in qualified investment companies, we are not limited with respect to the minimum standard that any investment company must meet, nor the industries in which those investment companies must operate. We may make investments without shareholder approval and such investments may deviate significantly from our historic operations. Any change in our investment policy or selection of investments could adversely affect our stock price, liquidity, and the ability of our shareholders to sell their stock.

Our Investments May Not Generate Sufficient Income to Cover Our Operations

We intend to make investments into qualified companies that will provide the greatest overall return on our investment. However, certain of those investments may fail, in which case we will not receive any return on our investment. In addition, our investments may not generate income, either in the immediate future, or at all. As a result, we may have to sell additional stock, or borrow money, to cover our operating expenses. The effect of such actions could cause our stock price to decline or, if we are not successful in raising additional capital, we could cease to continue as a going concern.

In the event the Board shall reject an opportunity that was presented to it and only in that event, any of the Company's officers and directors may avail themselves of such an opportunity. Every effort will be made to resolve any conflicts that may arise in favor of the Company. There can be no assurance, however, that these efforts will be successful.

ITEM 13. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

    Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the our management as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.

    Changes in Internal Controls. There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. There were no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, and therefore there were no corrective actions taken. However, the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there is no certainty that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goal under all potential future considerations, regardless of how remote.

 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
S3 Investment Company, Inc.
Temecula, CA

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of S3 Investment Company, Inc.  as of June 30, 2004 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended and for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and the year ended December 31, 2002. These 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 generally accepted auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of S3 Investment Company, Inc.  as of June 30, 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, the Company has had recurring operating losses and is dependent on financing to continue operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to those matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2004



NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 

a. Organization

S3I Holdings, Inc. (the Company), was organized under the laws of the State of California in April 2000. The original name of the Company was Rental Windows, Inc. which was subsequently changed on August 10, 2001 to Axtion Foods, Inc. (Axtion). In June 2001, the Company adopted a business plan to distribute nutritional foods and supplements. In March 2003, while in the development stage, this business plan ceased.

On April 16, 2003, Axtion completed an agreement and plan of share exchange with SecureSoft Systems, Inc. (SecureSoft), a private California corporation and changed its name to S3I Holdings, Inc.. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company exchanged 15,727,197 shares of common stock for all of the outstanding shares of common stock of SecureSoft. In addition to the share exchange, the Company cancelled 20,000,000 shares of common stock. The management of Axtion resigned and was replaced by the management of SecureSoft. The acquisition has been recorded as a reverse acquisition whereby SecureSoft is the accounting survivor and Axtion is the legal survivor; therefore, the historical financial statements presented prior to the acquisition are those of SecureSoft.

The financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2003 are consolidated with SecureSoft. However on April , 2004, the company registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a Business Development Company. In so doing has effected a change in accounting principle ( see below) and no longer consolidates it's financial statements with SecureSoft. Therefore the financial statements at June 30, 2004 are unconsolidated. The Company is currently engaged as an investment company developing its various business interest, specifically SecureSoft's business of developing HIPPA compliance software.

b. Accounting Method

The Company recognizes income and expense on the accrual basis of accounting.

c. Revenue Recognition

For the period June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, revenue from the sale of software and consulting is recognized when an agreement is made, delivery is complete, no significant obligations remain unfulfilled and collection of the receivable is probable. In instances where a significant obligation exists, revenue recognition is delayed until the obligation has been satisfied.

d. Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

e. Investments

The company has recorded it's investment in SecureSoft at cost which approximates the Fair Market Value.

f. Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment consists of the following at June 30, 2004:

Computers and Equipment $ 0
Accumulated Depreciation   0
   
Total Property & Equipment $ 0
   

The provision for depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation expense for the year ended June 30, 2004, six months ended June 30, 2003 and for the year ended December 31, 2002 was $0, $6,819, and $8,795 respectively.

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the Company records impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used or to be disposed of when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amount. As of June 30, 2004, no impairments have been recognized.

g. Provision for Income Taxes

No provision for income taxes has been recorded due to net operating loss carry forward totaling approximately $600,000 that will be offset against future taxable income. These NOL carry forward begin to expire in the year 2019.

Deferred tax assets and the valuation account is as follows at June 30, 2004:
 

Deferred tax asset:    
   NOL carry forward $ 200,000
   Valuation allowance   (200,000)

h. Stock Options and Warrants

As permitted by FASB Statement No. 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" (SFAS No. 123),and amended under FASB Statement 148, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure"(SFAS No. 148), the Company has elected to measure and record compensation cost relative to employee stock option costs in accordance with Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations and make pro forma disclosures of net income (loss) and basic earnings (loss) per share as if the fair value method of valuing stock options have been applied. Under APB Opinion 25, compensation cost is recognized for stock options granted to employees when the option price is less than the market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

For purposes of the pro forma disclosures and to measure and record consideration paid to non-employees in the form of stock options or warrants, the Company applies "SFAS NO, 123", as amended under SFAS 148 which requires the Company to estimate the fair value of each dilutive instrument (stock options and warrants) award at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

i. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The computation of earnings (loss) per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding at the date of the financial statements. Fully dilutive earnings per share has not been presented because it equals primary earnings per share.

j. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and expenses during the reporting period. In these financial statements, assets, liabilities and expenses involve extensive reliance on management's estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 

NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
 

k. Financial Instruments

The recorded amounts for financial instruments, including cash equivalents, receivables, investments, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and long-term debt approximate their market values as of June 30, 2004. The Company has no investments in derivative financial instruments.
.

NOTE 2 - Going Concern
 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has had recurring operating losses and is dependent on financing to continue operation. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. It is management's plan to continue to increase revenues of SecureSoft through additional contracts to provide services. The Company will also raise funds from investors as needed or negotiate loan instruments to provide necessary capital.
 

NOTE 3 - Commitments and Contingencies
 

In June 2004, the Company committed to an operating lease for office space. The lease requires a monthly payment of $1,000 and is on a month to month basis.

Rent expense from operating leases for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and for the years ended December 31, 2002 was $34,452, $43,530, and $107,085, respectively.

NOTE 6 - STOCK OPTIONS (Continued)

In April 2004, the Company filed a form N-54 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to be treated as a Business Development Company (BDC).

The period ended June 30, 2003 reports the consolidated financial statements of the Company and SecureSoft its wholly owned subsidiary, however as of June 30, 2004 the company has valued the investment in SecureSoft at Fair Market Value, and did not consolidate its assets, liabilities or operating activities with SecureSoft.
 

NOTE 8 LEGAL ACTIONS
 

The Company is involved in the following legal actions:

NOTE 8 LEGAL ACTIONS (Continued)
 

The Company did not file a couterclaim against Fink since it had previously filed a separate lawsuit against Fink. No discovery has yet been conducted in the case. The Company plans to vigorously defend itself in this matter, and is unable to evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome.

Radford v. Yamamoto, et al., San Diego Superior Court, North County, Case No. GIN035467.

On February 10, 2004, plaintiff Tamara Radford filed a complaint against defendants Wayne Yamamoto, Christopher Berlandier, the Company, SecureSoft Systems, Inc. and Robert Grant.

On July 9, 2004, the defendants filed their answer to the complaint, and generally denied the allegations. Plaintiff has propounded some written discovery, but by agreement of the parties, the time to respond has been extended indefinitely. The parties agreed to the appointment of a mediator by the Court, and mediation is scheduled for November 17, 2004.

The Company plans to vigorously defend itself in this matter, and is unable to evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome.

On July 30, 2004, the Clerk entered a default judgment against the Company and Luke Zouvas in the amount of $274,239.60. Luke Zouvas has retained counsel in New York to file a motion to set aside the default judgment. The Company plans to retain counsel in New York to determine if it should file a similar motion.

The Company plans to vigorously defend itself in this matter and is unable to evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome.

Federal Grand Jury Investigation

On June 8, 2004, United States federal agents executed criminal search warrants at the offices of the Company and at the residence of Mark Zouvas.
