UNIVERSAL ICE BLAST, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002

(UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

     The accompanying unaudited  financial  statements  have  been  prepared in

accordance  with accounting principles generally accepted in the United  States

of America for  interim  financial statements and with instructions to Form 10-

QSB pursuant to the rules  and  regulations  of  the  Securities  and  Exchange

Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by

accounting  principles  generally accepted in the United States of America  for

complete financial statements.  The accompanying financial statements should be

read in conjunction with  the  audited consolidated financial statements of the

Company included in the Company's  December  31, 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-

KSB.

 

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments,  consisting  only of normal

recurring  accruals  considered  necessary  for a fair presentation, have  been

included. The results of operations for the six-month  period  ended  June  30,

2002 are not necessarily representative of operating results to be expected for

the entire fiscal year.

 

NOTE 2 - USE OF ESTIMATES

 

      The  preparation  of  financial  statements in conformity with accounting

principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America  requires

management to make estimates and assumptions  that  affect the amounts reported

in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ

from those estimates.

 

NOTE 3 - FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN

 

     The Company's consolidated financial statements  have  been  prepared on a

going   concern  basis,  which  contemplates  the  realization  of  assets  and

settlement  of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for

the foreseeable  future.   Since inception in 1995, the Company has accumulated

losses aggregating $4,104,000,  including  a loss of $548,000 for the six-month

period ended June 30, 2002.

 

     The Company had a working capital deficit  of $742,000 and a stockholders'

deficit  of  $897,000  at  June  30,  2002. Management's  plans  for  continued

existence include a focus towards sales  of  ice blast systems and machines and

raising additional capital through the sale of  common  stock  and  issuance of

debt.  The  Company  is  actively  pursuing  marketing  arrangements  for their

products in the precision, environmental and industrial cleaning markets. These

efforts include the arrangement with Ford Motor Company ("Ford") as more  fully

described  in  Note  6.   The  Company's  future  success is dependent upon its

ability  to  achieve  profitable operations and generate  cash  from  operating

activities, and upon obtaining  additional  financing.   There  is no assurance

that  the  Company will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations  or

through the  sale  of  additional  shares  of  common  stock or from additional

borrowings.

 

      During  the  six  months  ended  June  30,  2002,  the Company  converted

approximately $97,000 in trade accounts payable to two suppliers  to short-term

notes  payable bearing interest at annual rates of 12% and 18%.  The  Company's

ability  to  obtain additional cash could have a material adverse effect on its

financial position,  results  of  operations  and  its  ability  to continue in

existence. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments

that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

      During  the  six  months ended June 30, 2002, the Company issued  853,333

shares of common stock through  private  placements  under  Section 4(2) of the

Securities  Act in the aggregate amount of $127,962 to five investors,  all  of

whom were accredited  investors  and/or  existing  shareholders of the Company.

During the same period, under Section 4(2) of the Securities  Act  the  Company

issued  277,000  shares  of common stock and 100,000 warrants to four investors

for goods and services having  a  fair  market  value  of  $42,566.  All common

shares issued above are restricted subject to Rule 144.

 

NOTE 5 - STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

 

     The Company has a stock option plan under which employees, consultants and

others  may  be  awarded  incentive  or non-statutory stock options.  The  plan

authorizes the grant of options for the  purchase  of up to 6 million shares of

common stock. At December 31, 2001 options outstanding,  all of which were non-

statutory, totaled 1,021,175.  New options to purchase 650,000  shares of stock

were granted to employees at prices from $0.20 to $0.25 during the  six  months

ended June 30, 2002.  Of the options granted, 350,000 vested immediately,  with

the  balance  vesting  over  four  years.  Based on the intrinsic value method,

150,000 of the vesting options included a compensation element in the amount of

$3,000.   During the three months ended  June  30,  2002,  employees  forfeited

200,000 of the issued but unvested options.

 

NOTE 6 - CONTRACT WITH THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY

 

     During  2001  the  Company  designed, assembled, and installed a precision

gear cleaning ice blast system under  the  terms  of a purchase order from Ford

Motor Company. The purchase order is for a price of approximately $341,000 with

commitments  for  an  additional  three similar systems.  In  June  2002,  Ford

notified the Company that Ford has accepted the system and that orders for more

systems will be forthcoming.  Management believes the delivery of these systems

could occur in 2002 or 2003.    During the six months ended June 30, 2002, Ford

paid all amounts due to the Company  under  the  terms  of the initial purchase

order.

 

     As a result of Ford's acceptance of the gear cleaning  system, the Company

recognized approximately $341,000 in revenue during the quarter  ended June 30,

2002.   Costs  associated  with  the  system, also recognized during the  three

months ended June 30, 2002, were approximately  $344,000 resulting in a loss of

approximately $3,000. Because of the initial design  costs associated with this

project,  the  foregoing  results were in line with management's  expectations.

However, management expects  that  future systems will provide the Company with

margins that will secure the profitability of the Company in the long term.

 

NOTE 7 - FOREIGN OPERATIONS

 

     During the six month period ended  June  30,  2002, the Company reached an

agreement in principle to acquire certain assets of  its Dutch distributor. The

Company is in the process of forming a Dutch subsidiary  in order to consummate

the transaction.  Terms are still being negotiated and no definitive agreements

have been signed.  The Company expects to finalize the formation  of  its Dutch

subsidiary and the acquisition of these assets during the second half of fiscal

2002.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The  Company's  financial statements and accompanying  notes  are  prepared  in

accordance with accounting  principles  generally accepted in the United States

of  America.  Preparing  financial  statements   requires  management  to  make

estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported   amounts  of  assets,

liabilities,  revenue,  and  expenses.  These  estimates  and  assumptions  are

affected   by   management's   application  of  accounting  policies.  Critical

accounting  policies  for Universal  Ice  Blast  include  revenue  recognition,

accounting  for research  and  development  costs,  and  accounting  for  stock

compensation expense, as well as the preparation of the financial statements on

a going concern basis.

 

Revenue Recognition  -  Revenue from the sale of stand alone Ice Blast machines

and accessories to end users and distributors are shipped FOB shipping point at

which time the title passes  and revenue is recognized. Where customers require

installation services and operational  acceptance,  shipment is FOB destination

and  revenue  is  recognized  upon  acceptance  by the customer.  Revenue  from

services is recognized as the services are provided. Revenue from the rental of

Ice Blast machines is recognized over the rental  period  based on the terms of

the rental agreements.

 

Research and Development Costs - Research and development costs  are charged to

expense  as  incurred.  These  costs primarily consist of salaries, development

materials, supplies and related  costs  of  personnel  directly involved in the

research and development of new technology.
