NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2004
1. BACKGROUND
OVERVIEW
Coach is a holding company which manufactures luxury limousines, specialty
vehicles and limousine buses and sells financial services and products related
to its business through its various operating subsidiaries. We currently have
two subsidiaries. Commercial Transportation Manufacturing Corporation ("CTMC")
focuses on manufacturing specialty vehicles and limousine buses. Springfield
Coach Industries Corporation, Inc. ("SCB"), SCB focuses on manufacturing Lincoln
Town Car limousines and Ford Excursion limousines.
HISTORY
On June 1, 2000, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Business Combination,
dated as of April 14, 2000, PAN International Gaming, Inc., a Nevada corporation
("PAN"), purchased all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
SearchHound.com 2000, Ltd., a Nevada corporation, from their 22 record holders
for an aggregate of 50,373 shares of its common stock, which was approximately
71% of the issued and outstanding shares of PAN International Gaming, Inc. The
amount of consideration paid and received was negotiated by the parties to the
Plan of Business Combination. On June 6, 2000, after the merger, PAN changed its
name to SearchHound.com, Inc. ("Searchhound")
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 4, 2000, effective July
11, 2000, Searchhound purchased all of the issued and outstanding capital stock
of SoloSearch.com, Inc., a Missouri corporation ("SoloSearch"), from Cohen
Capital Technologies, L.L.C., a Missouri limited liability company, Kirk C.
Reivich, an individual, and October Capital, L.L.C., a Missouri limited
liability company, for an aggregate of 18,097 shares of common stock and an
aggregate of $300,000 in cash. The foregoing transaction resulted in the
issuance of 20.3% of the issued and outstanding shares of PAN. The amount of
consideration paid and received was negotiated by the parties to the Stock
Purchase Agreement.
Prior to June 1, 2000, SearchHound was not engaged in substantial operating
activities and there were no revenues or business operations. In 2002,
Searchound's Board of Directors changed its strategy due to poor operating
conditions and operating results in its primary businesses coupled with
difficulties in raising capital through debt and equity sources. The Board of
Directors adopted the new strategy during 2002, which committed to the disposal
of all of its current assets and businesses and to seek a merger or acquisition
candidate with better financial resources. By early 2003, the Board of Directors
of Searchhound had successfully disposed of all of the assets and all of the
liabilities of the company.
On August 22, 2003, the Company held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders, whereby
the shareholders voted to amend the Articles of Incorporation to change the name
of the company from Searchound.com to Coach Industries Group, Inc.
GENERAL
Through our subsidiaries, we manufacture luxury limousines, specialty vehicles
and limousine buses. Coach's principal executive offices are located in Coral
Springs, Florida. We are one of seven limousine manufacturers in the limousine
manufacturing industry operating under agreements with Ford Motor Company and
General Motors Corporation. The Company's long-term strategy is to offer and
expand our array of specialty vehicles and limousines and to offer and expand
financial services to existing customers, other limousine operators and others
outside of the limousine business. The Company will actively pursue acquisition
candidates that can support the expansion of these products and financial
services.
On September 1, 2003, we acquired CTMC through a reverse merger. Coach issued 3
million shares of common stock to CTMC in a stock for stock exchange. CTMC's
principal executive offices are located in Bohemia, New York. CTMC's operation
consists of manufacturing, selling and servicing specialty vehicles, limousine
buses and to a lesser extent, Lincoln Town Cars. The operation is housed in a
30,000 square foot manufacturing facility with approximately 27 employees
involved in the direct manufacture of the various modified chassis. CTMC
manufactures its vehicles pursuant to a Quality Vehicle Modifier Agreement with
Ford Motor Company. CTMC's New York presence allows the Company to support the
lucrative Northeastern market.
On December 31, 2003, Coach, through SCB, newly formed wholly owned subsidiary,
acquired certain assets and liabilities from Springfield Coach Builders, Inc.
("Springfield"). The acquisition was valued at $2.66 million based on 2 million
shares of common stock, at $1.33 per share, the closing market price on November
6, 2003. SCB's principal executive offices are located in Springfield, Missouri.
After our acquisition of Springfield, we determined that the production of the
various vehicles previously manufactured by Springfield and CTMC needed to be
segregated to eliminate any duplication of production processes at the CTMC and
SCB facilities. CTMC personnel have extensive depth of knowledge in prototype
development, modification and engineering of specialty vehicles, such as the
Chrysler Sprinter and the General Motors' Hummer H2. Accordingly, since January
2004, SCB manufactures the Lincoln Town Car limousines, which represent
approximately ninety percent (90%) of the limousine market and the Ford
Excursion limousines. CTMC manufactures our specialty vehicles and limousine
buses.
SCB manufactures its vehicles pursuant to a Quality Vehicle Modifier Agreement
with Ford Motor Company and a Cadillac Master CoachBuilder Agreement with
General Motors Corporation. SCB, because of its Midwest location, provides us
with the opportunity to economically support customers located in the
Midwestern, Southeastern and Western region of the United States. SCB's
Midwestern location also provides the Company significant operating expense
advantages due to lower labor and occupancy costs. SCB's operations consists of
manufacturing, selling and servicing Lincoln Town Cars and Ford Excursions
Limousines The operations is housed in a 45,000 square foot manufacturing
facility with 38 employees involved in the direct manufacture of the modified
chassis.
Management believes that the acquisition of Springfield enabled the Company's to
use its existing sales force, engineering expertise and management to enter the
Midwestern and Western United States limousine markets. Coach was able to assume
the existing lease for the manufacturing facility in Springfield, Missouri,
which increased its manufacturing capacity and reduced the cost of distribution
in those markets.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
Effective September 1, 2003, the Company has restated its consolidated balance
sheet, consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash
flows in conjunction with the reverse merger with CTMC. The accompanying
financial statements include the accounts of the Company from September 1, 2003,
and its wholly owned subsidiaries CTMC from January 8, 2003 (inception) and SCB,
effective December 31, 2003. CTMC was formed on January 8, 2003 (inception),
however they did not commence operations until April 1, 2003, thus, no activity
has been presented for the three months ended March 31, 2003.
All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company, after careful consideration and review, has elected to change the
accounting treatment of the transaction between the Company and CTMC. (the
"Transaction") and accordingly restate the financial statements. Originally, the
Transaction was accounted for as a business combination that resulted in
recording goodwill, an intangible asset, of approximately $490,000. After
further investigation and consideration, the Company has concluded that the
accounting treatment of this Transaction as a reverse merger more accurately
reflects the nature of this transaction. The primary factor influencing the
accounting treatment change for this Transaction is that the Company, Coach
Industries Group, Inc. had no operations prior to the Transaction. The
accounting impact of treating this Transaction as a reverse merger instead of a
business combination is an elimination of approximately $490,000 of goodwill and
a reduction of Additional Paid - in Capital by the same amount.
INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The interim financial statements presented herein have been prepared pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations. The interim financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements, notes and accounting
policies included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended December 31, 2003 as filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are
necessary to provide a fair presentation of financial position as of March 31,
2004 and the related operating results and cash flows for the interim period
presented have been made. The results of operations, for the period presented
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Generally accepted accounting principles state that costs that provide no
discernible future benefits, or allocating costs on the basis of association
with revenues or among several accounting periods that serve no useful purpose,
should be charged to expense in the period occurred. SFAS No. 2 "Accounting for
Research and Development Costs" requires that certain costs be charged to
current operations including, but not limited to: salaries and benefits;
contract labor; consulting and professional fees; depreciation; repairs and
maintenance on operational assets used in the production of prototypes; testing
and modifying product and service capabilities and design; and, other similar
costs. The Company expensed $747,665 of research and development costs for the
three months ended March 31, 2004.
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company is a party to a non-cancelable operating lease pertaining to the
office and plant facilities. The lease term, as amended, expires in December
2007 with payments commencing in July 2003. The lease is to a related party.
Rental expense under all operating leases totaled approximately $98,282 for the
three months ended March 31, 2004, respectively, that includes amortization of
approximately $7,200 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 of deferred
rental expense.
As of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 the Company had receivable balances
for approximately $171,517 and $31,593 due from related parties, respectively.
At March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Company had a note payable to a
related party outstanding for $823,494 and $613,659. This balance relates
directly to chassis purchases that are outstanding on the related party floor
plan with an unaffiliated third party. Interest on the note payable is due when
paid by the related party. The unaffiliated line of credit does not charge
interest to the line of credit for 90 days, thus no interest is incurred by the
Company unless the chassis is outstanding longer than 90 days.
The Company has related party payables at December 31, 2003 to a related party
of $305,739. This balance, as well as additional cash funding during the period
were reclassified to related party payable - convertible as of March 31, 2004.
The Company has related party payables - convertible at March 31, 2004 and
December 31, 2003 to a related party of $839,632 and zero, respectively. These
balances outstanding were for funding operating shortfalls as well as expenses
associated with Coach. In an effort to conserve cash resources the outstanding
balances were transferred to related party payable - convertible as of March 31,
2004. The related party payable will be converted for warrants and common stock
based on the lowest stock price during the second quarter. These balances are
anticipated to be converted in the second and third quarter of 2004.
4. LINE OF CREDIT
The Company has established a $1.6 million floor plan line of credit with a
local dealership in New York. The dealership funds the purchase of chassis
inventory, interest free for 90 days. The balance outstanding at March 31, 2004
was $292,440. Currently all chassis outstanding on the line of credit are under
90 days, thus no interest has been accrued for these chassis.
5. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
As of August 26, 2003, the Company reserved 1.6 million shares, valued at $0.45
cents per share, for the purpose of using as agreed consideration for a
potential transaction. The shares shall vest on the effective date of the
aforementioned potential transaction. The shares are issued and classified as
treasury stock as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003. On May 7, 2004, the
Company signed a letter of intent to acquire all the common stock of Go
Commercial Leasing Corporation. The deal is valued at $720,000. Effective July
9, 2004, the Company consummated this transaction and issued 423,529 common
shares valued at $1.70, the stated market value on the date of close.
On July 8, 2004, the Company announced the formation of CFS which is intended to
provide financial services to the luxury limousine industry and the high-end
automobile industry at that time. Go Commercial was merged into CFS through a
reverse merger, in a stock for stock exchange.
On May 19, 2004, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement, with Fusion
Capital pursuant to which Fusion Capital has agreed to purchase, subject to
Coach's rights to reduce or suspend these purchases and terminate the agreement
with Fusion Capital at any time, on each trading day, $12,500 of our common

common stock is to be purchased over a twenty four (24) month period, subject to
a three (3) month extension or earlier termination at the discretion of the
Company.
On June 1, 2004, the Company signed an agreement with Ford Motor Company,
whereby, pending certain additional authorizations, the Company would receive a
$2.0 million floor plan line of credit, solely for the purchase of chassis
inventory.
On August 6, 2004, the company signed a letter of intent to acquire Corporate
Development Services, Inc., and its affiliated companies, whereby the company
will issue a combination of stock and cash . The final terms of the agreement
are contingent upon various factors, including completion of due diligence. The
acquisition is anticipated to close during the third quarter.
On August 7, 2004, the Company signed an agreement with GE Commercial
Distribution Finance Corporation, whereby pending certain additional
authorizations, the Company would receive a $2.0 million floor plan line of
credit, solely for the purchase of chassis inventory.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The following discussion contains, in addition to historical information,
forward-looking statements regarding Coach Industries, Group, Inc. (the
"Company", "CIGI" or "Coach"), that involve risks and uncertainties. The
Company's actual results could differ materially. For this purpose, any
statements contained in this Report that are not statements of historical fact
may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, words such as "may," "will," "expect," "believe,"
"anticipate," "intend," "could," "estimate," or "continue" or the negative or
other variations thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
difference include, but not limited to, history of operating losses and
accumulated deficit; possible need for additional financing; competition;
dependence on management; risks related to proprietary rights; government
regulation; and other factors discussed in this report and the Company's other
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
ACCOUNTING TREATMENT CHANGE:
After careful review and consideration, the Company has elected to treat the
original transaction between Coach Industries Group, Inc., and CTMC as a reverse
merger and not as a business combination from an accounting standpoint. The
purpose for this filing is to restate the financial statements to reflect the
accounting treatment change for recording this transaction.
At the time of the transaction, the Company adopted the business combination
accounting treatment to record this transaction, whereby the market value of the
common stock exchanged for the assets plus the book value of the assets acquired
were used to determine the valuation of the transaction. Employing this
accounting treatment, the Company recorded approximately $490,000 of goodwill,
an intangible asset. After considering that the Company, Coach Industries Group,
Inc., had no operations prior to the Transaction, the Company concluded that the
reverse merger accounting treatment more appropriately reflects the nature of
this transaction. Under the reverse merger accounting treatment, historical
asset values (book value of the assets) are utilized to determine the valuation
of the transaction. Accordingly, no goodwill is generated with this transaction.
Pursuant to the Company's decision to change the accounting treatment, the
financial statements have been restated and are presented within this filing, to
reflect the new treatment.
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2004
COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003
Effective September 1, 2003, the Company has restated its consolidated balance
sheet, consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash

financial statements include the accounts of the Company from September 1, 2003,
and its wholly owned subsidiaries CTMC from January 8, 2003 (inception) and
Springfield, effective December 31, 2003. CTMC was formed on January 8, 2003
(inception), however they did not commence operations until April 1, 2003, thus,
no activity has been presented for the three months ended March 31, 2003.
Summary Overview and Overall Business Strategy
COACH INDUSTRIES GROUP, INC. OVERVIEW AND BUSINESS STRATEGY
Coach is a holding company which, through its subsidiaries, manufactures luxury
limousines, specialty vehicles and limousine buses and sells financial services
and products related to its business through its various operating subsidiaries.
The Company's long-term strategy is to offer and expand our array of specialty
vehicles and limousines and to offer financial services to existing customers as
well as other limousine operators. The Company will actively pursue acquisition
candidates that can support the expansion of these products and financial
services. We currently have two subsidiaries.
In September 2003, Coach acquired Commercial Transportation Manufacturing
Corporation ("CTMC") through a reverse merger. CTMC is a New York corporation.
Its principal executive offices are located in Bohemia, New York. CTMC focuses
on manufacturing specialty vehicles and limousine buses.
In December 2003, the Company formed Springfield Coach Industries Corporation,
Inc. ("SCB"), by acquiring certain assets and assuming certain liabilities from
Springfield Coach Builders, Inc. ("Springfield"). SCB is a Missouri corporation.
Its principal executive offices are located in Springfield, Missouri. SCB
focuses on manufacturing Lincoln Town Car limousines and Ford Excursion
limousines.
Annually, the limousine manufacturing industry generates approximately $400
million in revenues through the sale of luxury limousines, specialty vehicles
and limousine buses to approximately 14,000 limousine operators located
throughout the United States. These limousine operators are located in the
following regions of the United States: 59% in the Northeast, 16% in the
Southeast, 11% in the Midwest and 14% in the West. The Company's facilities are
strategically located to economically service the limousine market. SCB, because
of its Midwest location, provides the Company with the opportunity to
economically support customers located in the Midwestern, Southeastern and
Western region of the United States. SCB's Midwestern location also provides the
Company significant operating expense advantages due to lower labor and
occupancy costs. CTMC's New York presence allows the Company to support the
lucrative Northeastern market. CTMC personnel have extensive depth of knowledge
in prototype development, modification and engineering of specialty vehicles,
such as the Chrysler Sprinter and the General Motors Hummer H2. In January 2004,
the Company made a strategic decision to focus SCB on manufacturing the Lincoln
Town Car limousines, which represent approximately ninety percent (90%) of the
market, and the Ford Excursion limousines and for CTMC to focus on specialty
vehicles and limousine buses.
After our acquisition of Springfield in December 2003, we determined that the
production of the various vehicles needed to be segregated as to eliminate any
duplication of production processes at the CTMC and SCB facilities. CTMC
personnel have extensive depth of knowledge in prototype development,
modification and engineering of specialty vehicles, such as the Chrysler
Sprinter and the General Motors' Hummer H2. As a result, in January 2004, the
Company made a strategic decision for CTMC to focus on manufacturing specialty
vehicles and limousine buses and for SCB to focus on manufacturing the Lincoln
Town Car limousines and the Ford Excursion limousines. Based on these
manufacturing changes and focus on specialty vehicles, the Company plans on
expending $1.25 million on research and development during the next twelve
months, in addition to the $747,665 already incurred for the three months ended
March 31, 2004.
The business strategy of the Company is to further diversify product lines and
develop innovative design, engineering and manufacturing expertise in order to
be the premiere luxury limousine manufacturer in the marketplace. The Company
sells its custom limousine chassis to limousine operators throughout the United
States. The Company markets its limousines through tradeshows, print advertising
and direct marketing to limousine operators. The Company is focusing on certain
custom niches within its geographical markets and believes that opportunities
for growth remain strong for modified limousine chassis. The Company's two major
suppliers are Ford Motor Company and General Motors Corporation, which provide
the chassis for the Lincoln Town Car and the Cadillac products that the Company
then manufactures into a modified vehicle under the QVM and CMC agreements. The
Company believes that their relationship with these major suppliers is in good
standing at this time and that the supply of chassis inventory is adequate to
meet our operating needs.
The Company believes that it can best carry out its long-term business plan and
obtain optimal financial flexibility by using a combination of borrowings under
the Company's credit facilities, as well as internally and externally generated
equity capital, as sources of expansion capital. We believe this gives us a
competitive advantage from other manufacturers in our industry who do not have
access to these capital markets.
The Company has signed agreements with Ford Motor Company and GE Commercial
Distribution Finance Corporation, both to provide, $2.0 million lines of credit
for the purchase of chassis inventory. These agreements have not been put in
place at this time however, so the purchase of chassis inventory has been and
will continue to be made through related party funding arrangements. We believe
that the line of credit with the supplier will be adequate to meet the funding
requirements for the manufacturing facilities. In addition, the Company is
negotiating with various lenders to provide floor plan financing for
non-conforming chassis purchases and for vehicles that are built as showroom
models. This will enable the sales force to present completed vehicles to their
prospects in locations outside of the factory. In addition, Company has
established a $1.6 million floor plan line of credit with a local dealership in
New York. The dealership funds the purchase of chassis inventory, interest free
for 90 days. The balance outstanding at March 31, 2004 was $292,440. Currently
all chassis outstanding on the line of credit are under 90 days, thus no
interest has been accrued for these chassis.
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2004 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Company has historically satisfied its
operating cash requirements primarily through private placements of restricted
stock, the issuance of debt securities, issuance of common stock to satisfy
balances currently outstanding, operating cash flow and cash funding from
related parties, as required.
The Company has incurred losses from operations for the period from January 8,
2003 (inception) through December 31, 2003 of $1.7 million and a net loss of
$578,262 for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The Company has acquired
certain assets and liabilities of Springfield effective December 31, 2003. The
Company anticipates that its cash requirements will continue to increase as it
continues to expend substantial resources to build its infrastructure, develop
its business plan and establish its sales and marketing network operations,
customer support and administrative organizations. The Company currently
anticipates that its available cash resources and cash generated from operations
will be sufficient to meet its presently anticipated working capital and capital
expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. If the Company is unable to
maintain profitability, or seeks further expansion, additional funding will
become necessary. There can be no assurances that the Company can realize
sufficient revenues to satisfy its business plan and further, there can be no
assurance that alternative sources of financing can be procured on behalf of the
Company.
The Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of Springfield effective
December 31, 2003 and at that time determined that the production of the various
vehicles needed to be segregated to eliminate any duplication of production
processes at both facilities. CTMC personnel have extensive depth of knowledge
in prototype development, modification and engineering of specialty vehicles,
such as the Chrysler Sprinter and the General Motors' Hummer H2. In January
2004, the Company made a strategic decision to focus SCB on manufacturing the
Lincoln Town Car limousines and the Ford Excursion limousines and for CTMC to
focus on specialty vehicles and limousine buses. Based on these manufacturing
changes and focus CTMC on specialty vehicles, the Company, intends to expend
$2.0 million on research and development during the next twelve months, of which
$747,665 has been incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2004.
In addition, the Company may incur expenses during the next twelve months due to
the conversion of payables into common stock, funded by related parties to
assist the Company's working capital requirements. The related party payable
will be converted for warrants and common stock based on the lowest stock price
during the second quarter. These balances are anticipated to be converted in the
second and third quarter of 2004. At March 31, 2004, the balance of the related
party payable was $839,632.
Effective December 31, 2003, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary,
SCB, a Missouri corporation, consummated the acquisition of certain assets and
liabilities of Springfield.
As of August 26, 2003, the Company reserved 1.6 million shares, valued at $0.45
cents per share, for the purpose of using as agreed consideration for a
potential transaction. The shares shall vest on the effective date of the
aforementioned potential transaction. The shares are issued and classified as
treasury stock as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003. On May 7, 2004, the
Company signed a letter of intent to acquire all the common stock of Go
Commercial Leasing Corporation. The deal is valued at $720,000. Effective July
9, 2004, the Company consummated this transaction and issued 423,529 common
shares valued at $1.70, the stated market value on the date of close.
On July 8, 2004, the Company announced the formation of CFS which is intended to
provide financial services to the luxury limousine industry and the high-end
automobile industry at that time. Go Commercial was merged into CFS through a
reverse merger, in a stock for stock exchange.
On May 19, 2004, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement, with Fusion
Capital pursuant to which Fusion Capital has agreed to purchase, subject to
Coach's rights to reduce or suspend these purchases and terminate the agreement
with Fusion Capital at any time, on each trading day, $12,500 of our common
stock up to an aggregate purchase amount up to $6.0 million. The $6.0 million of
common stock is to be purchased over a twenty four (24) month period, subject to
a three (3) month extension or earlier termination at the discretion of the
Company.
On August 6, 2004, the company signed a letter of intent to acquire Corporate
Development Services, Inc., and its affiliated companies, whereby the company
will issue a combination of stock and cash. The final terms of the agreement are
contingent upon various factors, including completion of due diligence. The
acquisition is anticipated to close during the third quarter.
Related party payable - convertible increased from zero at December 31, 2003 to
$839,632 at March 31, 2004. The increase relates to the reclassification of the
$305,739 outstanding at December 31, 2003 from related party payable to
convertible debt. The additional increase in the balance relates to cash funding
requirements at CTMC and SCB as well as expenses funded by the related party for
operating expenses at the parent level. The related party payable will be
converted for warrants and common stock based on the lowest stock price during
the second quarter. These balances are anticipated to be converted during the
second and third quarters of 2004.
FINANCIAL CONDITION - MARCH 31, 2004 COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2003
CURRENT ASSETS
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. Cash and cash equivalents decreased from $91,565 at
December 31, 2003 to $4,226 at March 31, 2004, a decrease of $87,339, primarily
due to the operations of CTMC and SCB utilizing cash resources to fund
operations.
TOTAL CURRENT ASSETS. Total current assets increased from $1.5 million at
December 31, 2003 to $2.6 million at March 31, 2004, an increase of $1.1
million, primarily as a result of the Company acquiring CTMC through a reverse
merger and the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of Springfield. The
Company has increased operations during the three months ended March 31, 2004,
thus increasing accounts receivable, net to $471,892, accounts receivable -
related parties to $171,517 and supply inventory to $1.8 million compared to
December 31, 2003 of $12,939, $31,593 and $1.3 million, respectively. Revenues
for the three months ended March 31, 2004 were $4.2 million compared to $1.1
million for the year ended December 31, 2003, thus increasing the receivable and
inventory balances.
GOODWILL. At December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, goodwill was $2.2 million,
specifically related to the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of
Springfield, effective December 31, 2003. The acquisition was valued at $2.66
million based on 2 million shares of common stock, at $1.33 per share, the
closing market price on November 6, 2003. Management believes that the
acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of Springfield enabled the
Company's entree into the Midwestern and Western United States Markets through
the Company's existing sales force, engineering expertise and management. The
Company was able to assume the existing lease for the manufacturing facility in
Springfield, MO which increased our manufacturing capacity and reduced the cost
of distribution in those markets.
LIABILITIES
ACCRUED WAGES. Accrued wages increased from $32,921 at December 31, 2003 to
$136,709 at March 31, 2004, an increase of $103,788, primarily due to the
accrued wages relating to the operations of CTMC and SCB.
ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND OTHER ACCRUED EXPENSES. Accounts payable increased from
$367,669 at December 31, 2003 to $1.0 million at March 31, 2004, an increase of

companies were fully operational for the three months ended March 31, 2004.
CUSTOMER DEPOSITS. Customer deposits decreased from $230,273 at December 31,
2003 to $37,000 at March 31, 2004. The customer deposits reflected the full
costs of those cars that were not delivered until January 2004, primarily at
CTMC.
RELATED PARTY PAYABLE. Related party payable decreased from $305,739 at December
31, 2003 to zero at March 31, 2004, a decrease of $305,739. The decrease related
to the reclassification of this balance to related party payable - convertible.
NOTES PAYABLE-RELATED PARTIES. Notes payable-related parties increased from
$613,659 at December 31, 2003, to $823,494 at March 31, 2004, an increase of
$209,835, primarily relating to the acquisition of certain assets and
liabilities of Springfield. The notes payable - related parties is funding the
purchase of chassis for the business.
LINE OF CREDIT. The line of credit increased from zero at December 31, 2003 to
$292,440 at March 31, 2004, primarily related to a line of credit established by
CTMC with a local dealership for the purchase of chassis for production.
TOTAL CURRENT LIABILITIES. Total current liabilities increased from $1.7 million
at December 31, 2003 to $2.5 million at March 31, 2004, an increase of $0.8
million. The increase is primarily attributed to operations of both CTMC and
SCB, offset by the reclassification of related party payables to a convertible
status.
RELATED PARTY PAYABLE - CONVERTIBLE. Related party payable - convertible
increased from zero at December 31, 2003 to $839,632 at March 31, 2004. The
increase relates to the reclassification of the $305,739 outstanding at December
31, 2003 from related party payable to convertible debt. The additional increase
in the balance relates to cash funding needs at CTMC and SCB as well as expenses
funded by the related party for operating expenses of Coach. See discussion
above, regarding conversion of these shares.
RESULTS OF OPERATION MARCH 31, 2004 COMPARED TO MARCH 31, 2003
Effective September 1, 2003, the Company has restated its consolidated balance
sheet, consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash
flows in conjunction with the reverse merger with CTMC. The accompanying
financial statements include the accounts of the Company from September 1, 2003,
and its wholly owned subsidiaries CTMC from January 8, 2003 (inception) and SCB,
effective December 31, 2003. CTMC was formed on January 8, 2003 (inception),
however they did not commence operations until April 1, 2003, thus, no activity
has been presented for the three months ended March 31, 2003.
GROSS REVENUES. Gross revenues were $4.2 million for the three month period
ended March 31, 2004 relating to the Company's acquisition of CTMC through a
reverse merger effective September 1, 2003 and the Company acquiring certain
assets and liabilities of Springfield effective December 31, 2003. Gross
revenues for the period reflect revenues for both CTMC and SCB for the three
months ended March 31, 2004.
COSTS OF GOODS SOLD. Costs of goods sold were $3.3 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2004, primarily as a result of the Company acquiring CTMC
through a reverse merger effective September 1, 2003 and acquiring certain
assets and liabilities of Springfield effective December 31, 2003. The costs of
goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2004 reflect costs for both CTMC
and SCB.
OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses were $1.5 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2004 specifically related to the operations of CTMC, SCB and
Coach as described below.
General and administrative expenses were $425,185 for the three months ended
March 31, 2004, primarily due to the operations of CTMC, Coach and SCB during
2004.
Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2004 were
$747,665. After the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of Springfield
on December 31, 2003, we determined that the production of the various vehicles
needed to be segregated to eliminate any duplication of production processes at
the SCB and CTMC facilities. CTMC personnel have extensive depth of knowledge in
prototype development, modification and engineering of specialty vehicles, such
as the Chrysler Sprinter and the General Motors' Hummer H2. Accordingly, in
January 2004, the Company made a strategic decision for SCB to manufacture the
Lincoln Town Car limousines and the Ford Excursion limousines and for CTMC to
manufacture specialty vehicles and limousine buses.
Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2004 were
$187,877. Both CTMC and SCB attend an annual trade show for limousine
manufactures and operators. The sales and marketing expenses attributed to the
trade show were approximately $100,000 and the remaining expenses were
attributed to commissions paid on limousine sales.
Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was $92,282. Rent expense
is specifically attributed to the plant facilities in Springfield, Missouri and
Bohemia, New York.
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was $18,898. Interest
expense is directly attributed to the line of credit and floor plan facilities
due a related party. The interest represents interest paid on these facilities
for limousine chassis, held over 90 days.
NET LOSS. Net loss was $578,260 for the three months ended March 31, 2004,
primarily due to research and development expenses incurred for the three months
ended March 31, 2004. In January 2004, the Company made a strategic decision to
focus SCB on manufacturing the Lincoln Town Car limousines and the Ford
Excursion limousines and for CTMC to focus on specialty vehicles and limousine
buses, the result was a charge for the three months ended March 31, 2004 of
$747,665.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES SUBJECT TO ESTIMATION AND JUDGMENT
Management's Discussion and Analysis of 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. When preparing our financial statements, we make estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts on our balance sheets and income
statements, and our related disclosure about contingent assets and liabilities.
We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue,

base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions,
which we believe to be reasonable in order to form the basis for making
judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not
readily ascertained from other sources. Actual results may deviate from these
estimates if alternative assumptions or condition are used.
