Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K 17 2 PART I ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS General ------- Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. ("We" or the "Company"), a Florida corporation incorporated in 1989. In 2003, we changed our name from Jordan American Holdings, Inc. We are a financial service company which provides client investment advisory and related securities brokerage services. We manage investment portfolios for individuals, trust, corporate pension plans, other corporate accounts, and foundations through our wholly owned subsidiary, Equity Assets Management, Inc. ("EAM"). In addition, we operate IMPACT Financial Network, Inc. ("IFNI"), a securities broker-dealer registered with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., through which we receive commission revenues. Developments during the fiscal year 2003 within EAM and IFNI are described in the section below entitled "Operations." W. Neal Jordan was reinstated as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, as President and as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer on November 2, 2002. He had been removed in 2001. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, the Company was not involved in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings or any other material reclassifications, mergers or consolidations, and the Company did not acquire or dispose of any material amount of assets during such year. Operations ---------- Investment Advisory Services We conduct our investment advisory business through EAM. EAM is a state registered investment adviser with registration in the States of California, Florida, Missouri, New York, Texas, and Virginia. In 2004, EAM sought to remove its registration in the State of Colorado. The State of Colorado brought an administrative action against EAM, alleging that it had failed to comply with certain registration requirements imposed by Colorado. EAM settled this proceeding by agreeing that it and Mr. W. Neal Jordan, would not be registered in the State of Colorado as an investment adviser or investment adviser representative for a period of seven years. EAM is an investment advisory firm that specializes in the management of client accounts predominantly containing U.S. equity securities. Our target market includes high net worth individuals, trusts, corporate pension plans and other corporate accounts, foundations and institutional investors. The objective of the individually held portfolio is capital appreciation. EAM is compensated for its management of these accounts through two primary methods. EAM either receives a fixed advisory fee based on the value of assets under its management or an incentive-based advisory fee based upon the annual performance of the individual account. Incentive-based advisory fees on assets under management for our clients provide the largest portion of our revenues. Such revenues began declining in 2001 in a trend that has continued to date. Our assets under management have also declined in recent years. At December 31, 2003, EAM managed 128 individual accounts with assets under management of approximately $4.6 million, down from 171 individual accounts and $7.6 million at 2002 year end. 3 Approximately 30% of the assets under management in these accounts pay the fixed percentage of assets fee of approximately 1.9% annually. Approximately 70% of the assets under management in these accounts are billed on an incentive fee basis, whereby EAM receives 20% of the net realized and unrealized gains, including dividends and interest, in the account following each year of management. Incentive based advisory fees on assets under management for semi- affluent investors provide the largest portion of the Company's revenues, but have been declining since 2000. We believe that this trend may continue through 2004 and beyond. A semi-affluent investor generally has a total net worth greater than $1 million and less than $10 million. For the year ended December 31, 2003 no single client provided more than 5% of the Company's consolidated revenues. Accordingly, the loss of any single client would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's total investment management business. Additionally, because incentive-based fee contracts are billed on an annual basis for each respective client, there may be a delay in billing revenue for as long as eleven months from the time when actual account performance results were achieved. Thus, performance in these accounts may or may not benefit the revenues of the Company for nearly one year after such performance results were achieved, depending on the billing cycle of respective clients and the results of investments held in the portfolio during the interim period prior to the calculation of the billing. Incentive-based fees fluctuate depending on performance of the accounts being managed. Total assets under management and corporate earnings may substantially increase or decrease due to stock market conditions, investment results as influenced by EAM's investment advisory decisions, expenses and the related effectiveness of marketing efforts, and competition from other investment advisory companies and mutual funds. Other indirect influences, such as interest rate charges by the Federal Reserve Board, economic conditions such as high inflation and/or recession, international events, acts of terrorism, and other factors may also affect assets under management and EAM's earnings. The 1999 high-tech and .com boom, followed by the high-tech bust and market decline of 2000 to 2002 impacted most investment portfolios nationwide. We believe that the negative impact on the equities market during that period should benefit successful stock management companies as investors become aware of the need for professionalism in stock market-related investment programs. Securities Brokerage Service The Company also operates a registered broker-dealer, IMPACT Financial Network, Inc. ("IFNI"), which is a wholly owned-subsidiary of the Company and a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). Approximately 90% of EAM's individually managed accounts maintain brokerage accounts with IFNI for assets placed under EAM's management. IFNI is compensated for securities transactions on behalf of the Company's managed accounts by receipt of commissions for orders executed through Pershing & Co., a division of Donaldson, Lufkin, & Jenrette, a securities corporation. Pershing & Co., a member of SIPC, acts as clearing firm and custodian and processes all confirmations and monthly statements for EAM clients who choose to hold their accounts with IFNI. Clients may decide to custody their accounts at another brokerage institution of their own choosing. Management believes that IFNI will continue to be a source of revenue for the Company primarily through the commissions earned on securities transactions. 4 The Industry ------------ Revenues in the investment advisory business are determined primarily by fees based on the value of assets under management and on investment results. Therefore, the principal determinants of growth in the industry are the growth of individual assets under management and achieving positive investment performance results. In management's judgment, the major factors which influence growth in the industry are: (1) changes in the market value of securities; (2) net cash flow into or out of existing accounts; (3) gains of new or losses of existing accounts; and (4) the general stock market condition. Competition ----------- EAM competes to manage investment portfolios for individuals, trusts, corporate pension plans, other corporate accounts, and foundations. Management believes that the most important factors affecting competition in the investment advisory business are: (1) the abilities and reputations of investment advisors; (2) the differences in the investment results achieved by investment advisory firms; (3) the reputation and stability of a firm's workforce, especially of portfolio managers; (4) an effective marketing and business plan; and (5) quality of client services. EAM has many competitors, including other investment advisors, investment companies, broker-dealers and financial planners in addition to investment alternatives offered by insurance companies, banks, credit unions, securities dealers and other financial institutions. Many of these institutions possess large sales forces and significant financial resources, are able to engage in more extensive marketing and advertising than EAM and may offer accounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. EAM has gone through an extended period of time wherein it has been essentially dormant. From 2002 through 2005, EAM has not sought additional clients and has not actively managed the portfolios of its customers. In order to remain competitive, EAM must distinguish its services and performance from those of its competitors. Regulation ---------- EAM is registered with and subject to regulation by the State of Missouri under that State's Investment Advisers Act and, where applicable, under the state advisory laws of California, Florida, New York, Texas and Virginia. EAM is also subject to regulation by the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. IFNI is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and, where applicable, under state securities laws, and is regulated by the SEC, state securities administrators and the NASD. By law, investment advisors and broker-dealers are fiduciaries and are required to serve their clients' interests with undivided loyalty. There is a potential conflict of interest because of the affiliation between EAM and IFNI. While EAM believes that its existing relationships are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, because of this potential conflict of interest, the SEC and the various states in which EAM and IFNI are registered may closely examine these relationships. Many aspects of the financial services industry involve substantial liability risks, including exposure under federal and state securities laws in 5 connection with the distribution of securities and investment advisor activities. The Company does not currently have errors and omissions insurance policies insuring against these risks. There can be no assurance that any changes to existing laws, regulations or rulings promulgated by government entities having jurisdiction over the Company's investment advisory, broker-dealer, investment company and commodities trading business will not have an adverse effect upon the business of the Company. Employees --------- At March 1, 2005, the Company employed 2 full-time personnel, 1 of whom are executive officers of the Company. As of March 1, 2003 the Company employed 2 full time personnel, 1 of whom were executive officers. Those numbers in 2004 were 2 and 1 respectively. The Company utilizes the services of independent contractors to assist the employees in the operation of the Company's business. ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY The Company currently maintains its headquarters at 2458 Old Dorsett Road, Suite 118, Maryland Heights, Missouri 63043. The Company no longer has any satellite offices. Currently, the Company uses this space free of rent. The space is owned by Gordon Gundaker. During 2003, the Company paid $19,483 in rent to unrelated entities. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Wallace Neal Jordan, Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings and the shareholders of Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings have filed a legal action against Charles Clark, A.J. Elko and other parties to be named for damages incurred as a result of the attempted takeover of the Company by those parties. Proceedings are ongoing. Other than the foregoing, the Company is not a party to any material litigation, and management has no knowledge of any threatened material litigation against the Company. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS On September 15, 2003, the shareholders voted to change the Company's name from Jordan American Holdings to Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings and approved increase in authorized shares from 20,000,000 to 20,000,000,000 to allow for splits/sale of new shares.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking Statements ------------------------------------------ Certain statements provided by us in this report are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The most significant of such factors include, but are not limited to, the following: our auditors have determined that there is an uncertainty as to our ability to continue as a going concern, we will require additional capital in order to meet our cash needs during 2005, we have recently experienced significant changes at the senior management and Board of Directors levels, the performance of financial markets, the investment performance of our managed accounts, general economic conditions, competitive conditions and government regulations, including changes in tax rates. We caution readers to carefully consider such factors. Further, such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements. Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings is the surviving company of what was originally the public company named the Christian Purchasing Network. When Wallace Neal Jordan merged his private companies into that public entity, the name of the public company was changed to Jordan American Holdings, and operations continued under that name until the name was changed to Gundaker/ Jordan American Holdings in 2003. The profitable operations within the public company have historically been the investment advisory firm and the broker-dealer -- Equity Assets Management, and Impact Financial Network. All attempts to diversify the Company's operations were unprofitable. 8 In the year 2001, after years of attempts at diversification, Wallace Neal Jordan, as CEO, made the decision to halt the diversification efforts, stop the negative cash flow associated with those failed attempts to broaden the financial base of operations of the Company and focus on increasing the benefits to be derived from the business of portfolio management. The personnel associated with the unprofitable operations needed to be terminated, all unproductive facilities needed to be closed, and the Company needed to be downsized to the point of maximized profitability. That process was to begin on May 22, 2001. A new board of directors was to be installed, and the new business plan initiated at the annual meeting held on that date. Instead of the anticipated result on May 22, 2001, Mr. Jordan was removed from his positions by a vote of two-to-one (the two being parties intended to be terminated by the aborted annual meeting). His positions within the Company were assumed by others. Mr. Jordan spent the next 17 months in a legal battle to regain control of the Company, and within that 17 month period of Mr. Jordan's absence, the Company and its business were almost destroyed. On November 2, 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company voted Mr. Jordan back into the Company and placed the operations back into his hands. From November 2, 2002 to date, efforts within the Company have been directed toward identifying individuals who can contribute positively to the anticipated future success of the Company. One employee has been hired and trained, and other potential employees have been identified and are under consideration. Having the right people within a company is a prerequisite to greatness in any business. In the money management business, the more prominent and visible the involved parties, the better the image and perception surrounding the company. We believe that the Company is in an excellent business, with the potential for the future to far exceed the positive result of the past. Our association with Gordon Gundaker, a successful realtor in St. Louis, Missouri, is a positive first step in that direction, and Mr. Gundaker is a substantial investor in the Company's stock. Since November of 2002, the time of Mr. Jordan's reinstatement into positions of control, any required financing of the business of the Company has been provided either from assets within the Company or by Mr. Jordan from his personal assets. Results of Operations --------------------- COMPARISON OF FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003 WITH FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 Net loss for 2003 was $314,211 or $.02 per common share and share equivalent compared to a net loss of $487,299 or $.03 per common share and share equivalent for 2002. Total revenues decreased by $335,970, or 80%, from $420,292 in 2002 to $84,322 in 2003, as a result of decreased activity in the management of accounts. Investment advisory fees declined 84%, commission income declined 76%, and other income decreased 100% from 2002 to 2003. Operating expenses decreased $571,589, from $939,722 in 2002 to $368,133 in 2003, a decrease of 61%, as activities of the company were reduced in late 2002. Salaries declined 86%, commission expense 95%, communications 81%, taxes and licenses 73%, clearing costs 67%, occupancy 79%, depreciation 80% and other general and administrative expenses decreased 35%. These declines were offset by an increase in professional fees of $127,104, or 367% from 2002 to 2003. Included in professional fees in 2003 was a legal settlement with a customer totaling $75,000, as well as legal fees related to this settlement. 9 Total other income (loss) was $56,746 for 2003, compared to $101,546 for 2002. The decrease in other income can be primarily attributed to loss on disposal of fixed assets, and a reduction in interest income resulting from the sale of a portion of the company's debenture holdings. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- At December 31, 2003, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $18,886 versus $36,570 at December 31, 2002. This decrease is primarily due to the Company's working capital expenditures. Marketable securities were valued at $350,000 at December 31, 2003, as compared to $500,000 at December 31, 2002, a decrease of approximately 30%. During 2003, the Company sold $150,000 of its investments in Boston Restaurant debentures and used the proceeds to satisfy legal fees. Net investment advisory fees receivable were $984.00 at December 31, 2003, as compared to $3,513 at December 31, 2002, a decrease of approximately 73%. This decrease can be primarily attributed to lessened business activities. Accounts payable and accrued expenses were $222,645 at December 31, 2003, as compared to $184,211 at December 31, 2002, a increase of approximately 21%. The increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses can be primarily attributed to the accrual of a remaining lease obligation for premises vacated by the Company - $20,000, the remaining obligation on a lease of a company auto - $13,000, and increased unpaid legal and accounting fees - $22,000, as offset by a reduction in vendor payables attributable to reduced business activities in 2003. Accruals are based upon actual expenses incurred as well as unbilled expenses. Deposits, which represent amounts received for the unconsummated sale of the assets of the investment advisory business, are accruing interest at 8% per year. The increase in deposits of $25,000 is made up of $10,000 in accrued interest and an additional $15,000 received in 2003 by the Company for stock, for which shares have not yet been issued. At December 31, 2003, the Company had $18,886 in cash and marketable securities. Analysis of Cash Flows ---------------------- Cash used in operating activities increased to $188,597 in 2003 from $168,448 in 2002. A decrease in net loss was offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities during 2003. Cash provided (used) in investing activities increased to $145,913 in 2003 compared to $(16,039) cash used by investing activities in 2002. The increase is primarily the result of sale for $150,000 of an investment in 2003. Cash provided by financing activities decreased to $25,000 in 2003 compared to $131,333 cash provided by financing activities in 2002. In 2002 the Company received $125,000 for the purchase of the assets of the investment advisory business. The sale was never consummated, and the purchase deposit was converted to an interest bearing obligation in 2002. In 2003, the Company received cash for the purchase of shares which have not yet been issued. 10 COMPARISON OF FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 WITH FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 Net loss for 2002 was $487,299 or $0.03 per common share and share equivalent compared to a net loss of $1,493,496 or $0.13 per common share and share equivalent for 2001. The decrease in our net loss was primarily caused by our reduction in selling general administrative expenses as discussed below. Revenue from investment advisory fees for 2002 totaled $159,938 compared to $247,562 for 2001, a decrease of 35%. Realized income on trading equity securities for 2002 were $63,843 compared to realized losses on trading equity securities of $250,914 for 2001. Commission revenue decreased for 2002 to $239,940, as compared to $351,138 for 2001, a decrease of approximately 32%. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the volume of securities transactions for client accounts by the Company based on its investment strategy, market conditions and other factors. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses of $939,722 were incurred during 2002, compared to SG&A expenses of $1,917,912 for 2001, a decrease of approximately 51%. The decrease in SG&A expenses stems primarily from a reduction in salaries due to our decrease in employees $(304,893), a reduction is professional fees, largely as a result of reduced litigation expenses $(356,714) and a reduction in overall general and administrative expenses $(96,760). Total other income was $165,389 for 2002, compared to $171,460 for 2001. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- The Company did not hold any marketable securities as of December 31, 2002, as compared to marketable securities valued at $49,298 at December 31, 2001. During 2002 we sold the securities owned at December 31, 2001 in order to meet our operating expenses. Net investment advisory fees receivable were $3,513 at December 31, 2002, as compared to $16,394 at December 31, 2001, a decrease of approximately 79%. This decrease can be primarily attributed to significantly lower incentive- based billings in 2002 as compared to 2001. Accounts payable and accrued expenses were $184,211 at December 31, 2002, as compared to $32,574 at December 31, 2001, an increase of approximately 466%. The increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses can be primarily attributed to our lack of available working capital to pay bills as they become due. Accruals are based upon actual expenses incurred as well as unbilled expenses. Net cash used in continuing operating activities for fiscal year 2002 was $91,780 compared to net cash used in continuing operations of $1,034,991 for the same period in 2001. This change was due primarily to the decrease in the Company's net loss from the prior year. Net cash provided by financing activities for fiscal year 2002 was $131,333 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $34,500 in 2001. This financing activity in 2002 related to the deposit received from Schneider Capital in connection with our attempted sale of the Impact Total Return Portfolio mutual fund. Our negotiations with Schneider Capital have ceased and, therefore, we have recorded this deposit as a liability in or financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002. 11 Recent Accounting Pronouncements -------------------------------- The following information is as of December 31, 2003. In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," ("FIN 46"). The interpretation provides guidance for determining when a primary beneficiary should consolidate a variable interest entity, or equivalent structure, that functions to support the activities of the primary beneficiary. The adoption of this statement did not materially effect the financial statements. In March 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS 149 did not materially effect the financial statements. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity". SFAS 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. This statement establishes new standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. SFAS 150 requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within the scope of this statement as a liability because the financial instrument embodies an obligation of the issuer. This statement applies to certain forms of mandatorily redeemable financial instruments including certain types of preferred stock, written put options and forward contracts. SFAS 150 did not materially effect the financial statements. ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Financial statements contained in this report reflect no change from the preceding year in any accounting principles or practices or in the method of application of those principles or practices. The report to the financial statements does contain a statement regarding doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Information with respect to this item is contained in the consolidated financial statements beginning on page F-1 of this report. Such information is incorporated herein by reference. ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures --------------------------------------------------- We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily 12 applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management's control objectives. With the participation of management, our chief executive officer and interim chief financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at the conclusion of the period ended December 31, 2003. Based upon this evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed is included in the reports that it files with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Changes in Internal Controls ----------------------------- There were no significant changes in our internal controls or, to the knowledge of our management, in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of most recent evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures utilized to compile information included in this filing. Within the twenty-four (24) months prior to the date of our most recent Financial Statements and through the date of this report, we have had no disagreements with our accountants on accounting or financial disclosure.

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 audit. The financial statements of Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. as of December 31, 2002 were audited by other auditors whose report dated April 8, 2003 expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements. We conducted our audit in accordance with the 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. as of December 31, 2003, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 13 to the financial statements, the Company's operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ Richey May & Co., LLP Richey May & Co., LLP Englewood, Colorado June 24, 2005 F-1 Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS December 31, 2003 and 2002 2003 2002 ----------- ----------- ASSETS ASSETS Cash and cash equivalents $ 18,886 $ 36,570 Investment advisory fees and commissions receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $0 and $38,156 984 3,513 Deposit with clearing broker 24,602 27,721 Interest receivable 31,759 - Other receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $0 and $68,403 2,283 8,780 Other assets 1,030 4,127 Property, equipment and leasehold improvements, at cost; net of accumulated amortization and depreciation of $27,125 and $241,025 14,457 61,011 Receivable from stockholder 29,998 23,825 Investment, convertible debenture 350,000 500,000 Net assets held for disposal - 62,724 ----------- ----------- TOTAL ASSETS $ 473,999 $ 728,271 =========== =========== LIABILITIES AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY LIABILITIES Accounts payable and accrued expenses $ 222,645 $ 184,211 Deposits 156,333 131,333 Deferred investment advisory fees 1,034 4,529 ----------- ----------- Total liabilities 380,012 320,073 ----------- ----------- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Variable rate, cumulative, convertible, non- voting preferred stock, $0.01 par value, $1.00 liquidation value; 5,000,000 shares authorized, 2,000,000 shares issued and outstanding 20,000 20,000 Common stock, $0.001 par value; 20,000,000,000 shares authorized, 14,217,266 shares issued and outstanding 14,217 14,217 Additional paid-in capital 4,463,657 4,463,657 Accumulated deficit (4,403,887) (4,089,676) ----------- ----------- Total stockholders' equity 93,987 408,198 ----------- ----------- TOTAL LIABILITIES AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY $ 473,999 $ 728,271 =========== =========== The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements.

F-5 Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ORGANIZATION Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("JAHI") ("the Company") was incorporated in Florida in May 1989 under the name Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and subsequently changed its name to Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. JAHI has conducted its investment advisory business under the name of Equity Assets Management. In 2001, JAHI announced the formation of a wholly-owned subsidiary named Equity Assets Management, Inc. ("EAM") and moved its investment advisory business into that entity. EAM provides investment advisory and portfolio management services to individual investors, pooled accounts and its mutual fund (which was dissolved in 2002) with its customers located mainly in the United States. EAM is registered as an investment advisor under the Investment Advisor Act of 1940. The Company also owns 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of IMPACT Financial Network, Inc. ("IFNI"). EAM's customer investment transactions are primarily brokered through IFNI, a registered broker-dealer in securities acting as a non-clearing introducing broker. In addition, the Company owned 100% of IMPACT Administrative Services, Inc. ("IASI") until January 2003 and IMPACT Tax and Business Services, Inc. ("ITABS") until December 2002, at which times these businesses were disposed (see Notes 2, 5, and 9). IASI provided operational and administrative support to Impact Management Investment Trust. ITABS, provided tax preparation and tax planning services to individuals and small businesses (see Note 5). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of JAHI and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 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 reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. DEPOSIT WITH CLEARING BROKER The Company has entered into an agreement with a clearing broker that requires a minimum restricted cash balance of $25,000. Due to the restricted nature of the cash deposit, it is not considered a cash equivalent for financial reporting purposes. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method, over estimated useful lives of three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lease term. Software is amortized using the straight-line method over three years. F-6 Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) LONG-LIVED ASSETS Potential impairment of long-lived assets is reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Impairment is recognized when the estimated future net cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) from the asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset. REVENUE RECOGNITION Commission income is recognized on a settlement date basis, which does not differ materially from the trade date basis of accounting. Interest income is accrued and credited to income based on the principal amount outstanding. Fixed investment advisory fees received in advance are deferred and amortized into income over the period in which services are performed. Investment advisory fees based on a percentage of the annual increase in the market value of a customer's portfolio (including interest and dividends) are recognized at the contract anniversary date. Fees due to sales representatives are recognized when such fees are earned. STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS For cash flow purposes, the Company considers cash and temporary investments with original maturities of three months or less, to be cash and cash equivalents. INCOME TAXES Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of certain assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred taxes represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are limited to amounts considered to be realizable in future periods. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is determined using net income divided by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued. Common stock equivalents are not included in the weighted average calculation since their effect would be anti-dilutive. Net loss per common share has been adjusted to reflect preferred stock dividends in arrears of $60,000 and $52,500 for the years ending December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. STOCK OPTIONS The Company accounts for stock options under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations. The effect on net income or earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", to stock-based employee compensation has not been presented as no options were granted and therefore there is no effect for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. F-7 Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances to conform to the current year financial statement presentation. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," ("FIN 46"). The interpretation provides guidance for determining when a primary beneficiary should consolidate a variable interest entity, or equivalent structure, that functions to support the activities of the primary beneficiary. The adoption of this statement did not materially effect the financial statements. In March 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS 149 did not materially effect the financial statements. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity". SFAS 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. This statement establishes new standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. SFAS 150 requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within the scope of this statement as a liability because the financial instrument embodies an obligation of the issuer. This statement applies to certain forms of mandatorily redeemable financial instruments including certain types of preferred stock, written put options and forward contracts. SFAS 150 did not materially effect the financial statements. 2. DEPOSIT LIABILITIES The Company formed Impact Management Investment Trust ("the Trust"), which was registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management investment company (mutual fund). EAM was the investment advisor of the Trust and IFNI was the primary distributor of the Trust. In 2002, the Company entered into a transaction to sell the Trust to the Trust's sub advisor, Schneider Capital Management, Inc. ("Schneider"), and received a deposit on the sale of $125,000. The negotiations ceased and Schneider decided against purchasing the Trust. The Company subsequently liquidated the Trust in 2002. The deposit liability is due on demand and bears interest at 8% per annum. The outstanding balance includes accrued interest of $16,333 and $6,333 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. At December 31, 2003, JAHI held a $15,000 deposit from an individual for an anticipated future stock subscription by the Company. F-8 Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 3. INVESTMENT, CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE The Company owns a variable rate, convertible subordinated debenture from Boston Restaurant Associates, Inc. (BRAI). The principal balance of the debenture is due and payable on December 31, 2011, has a conversion price of $1.25 per share and bears interest at a rate of 14% per annum. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company sold $150,000 of the debenture. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company's investment in the debenture was $350,000 and $500,000, respectively. In connection with the purchase of the debenture, the Company also acquired, at no cost, warrants to subscribe for the purchase from BRAI of up to 500,000 fully paid and nonassessable shares of BRAI's common stock. The purchase rights represented by the warrants are exercisable by the Company, in whole or in part, at any time through December 31, 2006, at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. The Company's management has estimated that the BRAI warrants have no value at December 31, 2003 and 2002. This determination was made considering primarily the current value of the underlying common stock and the current illiquidity of the warrants. The cost carrying value of the convertible debenture approximates the fair market value as estimated by management, after considering such factors as current interest rates, liquidity, conversion terms and the credit worthiness of the borrowers. 4. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY At December 31, 2003, The Company has stock warrants outstanding entitling the warrant holder to acquire 1,113,000 shares of common stock at $.50 per share expiring June 5, 2010. The Company also has outstanding underwriter warrants related to the initial public offering entitling the Company's former president to purchase 44,545 units at a price of $2.58 per unit expiring through January 8, 2011. Each unit contains five shares of common stock and five stock warrants; two warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of common stock for $.60 per share. JAHI has authorized 5,000,000 shares of $0.01 par value preferred stock. The Board of Directors is authorized to issue preferred stock in one or more series, to determine the rights thereto, and to fix the number of shares on any series of preferred stock and the designation of any such series. The Company issued 3,000,000 shares of 8% cumulative, convertible, non-voting preferred stock and one share of common stock to a customer of EAM in a private placement offering in 1993. In connection with this offering, 750,000 shares of common stock were given to the Company to distribute to the preferred shareholder by three officers of the Company for no additional consideration. F-9 Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 4. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) On December 31, 2000, the Company entered into a preferred stock exchange agreement (the "Agreement") with its sole preferred shareholder (the "Shareholder"). The Shareholder was the owner of 3,000,000 shares of the Company's 8% Convertible Redeemable Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Outstanding Preferred Stock"). The Company was in arrears with respect to the payment of dividends on the Outstanding Preferred Stock, which arrearages totaled $600,000 as of December 31, 2000 (the "Dividend Arrearage"). The Agreement provided that the Company declare and pay a cash dividend of $100,000 on the Outstanding Preferred Stock and exchange 3,500,000 shares of a new 2000 Convertible Preferred Stock (the "New Preferred Stock") for the 3,000,000 shares of the Outstanding Preferred Stock and cancellation of the $500,000 balance of the Dividend Arrearages. The New Preferred Stock has a dividend rate of 3% for each of the calendar years 2001 through 2003, 4% for calendar year 2004, 5% for calendar year 2005, 6% for calendar year 2006, 7% for calendar year 2007, and 8% for calendar year 2008 and thereafter. The New Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock at the rate of one share of common stock for each $3.50 in face amount of the New Preferred Stock. Unpaid and accrued dividends shall be credited to the conversion price. In August 2001, the Company issued 3,100,000 shares of common stock in exchange for 1,500,000 shares of the New Preferred Stock. In addition, the preferred stock agreement was modified to provide that the dividend rate for 2001 and 2002 was to be 5.25%. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, cumulative dividends in arrears totaled $217,500 and $157,500, respectively. 5. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS The receivable from the officer/stockholder is unsecured, bears interest at 10% per annum, and is due on demand. The outstanding balance amounted to $29,998 and $23,825 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. On November 30, 2000, the Company purchased certain assets of a tax preparation and tax planning services company from an officer and shareholder of JAHI valued at $105,100 as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company issued 100,500 stock options valued at $20,100 as part of the purchase price. The subsidiary that purchased these assets was discontinued during 2002 (see Note 9). 6. INCOME TAXES As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had approximately $4,132,000 and $3,818,000, respectively, of net operating loss carryforwards, expiring through the year 2023. A large portion of the net operating loss carryforwards were incurred prior to the 1991 reverse acquisition of JAHI and its subsidiaries and, as such, management of the Company anticipates restrictions on the use of these carryforwards due to provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company also had net capital loss carryforwards of approximately $597,000 and $603,000, respectively, which expire through 2007. F-10 Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 6. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED) The estimated deferred tax asset related to the net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards amounted to approximately $1,762,000 and $1,647,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Based upon the Company's current operating losses and the uncertainty as to future taxable income and the realization of the deferred tax assets, a full valuation allowance has been provided for the Company's net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2003 and 2002. 7. STOCK OPTIONS During August 1991, the Board of Directors of JAHI approved the Long-Term Incentive Plan ("the Plan"), a stock option plan. The aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be granted by the Company will not exceed a maximum of 2,000,000 shares during the period of the Plan. The option price per share shall be at least the fair market value (as determined by the Finance/Compensation Committee or, in lieu thereof, the Board of Directors) of the common stock on the date the stock option is granted. If at any time a stock option is granted, an employee owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, then the terms of the stock option shall specify that the option price shall be at least 110% of the fair market value of the stock subject to the option, and shall be exercisable for up to five years from the date of the grant. In addition, the Plan provides for the mandatory grant of options to directors on a yearly basis commencing March 1, 1993. If for any reason a change in control of the Company occurs, or under the sole discretion of the Finance/Compensation Committee or, in lieu thereof, the Board of Directors, all shares subject to the stock option shall immediately become earned and exercisable. The Board of Directors may discontinue the Plan at any time, and may amend it from time to time. Certain amendments require stockholders' approval. The Company has also issued certain stock options outside of the Plan.

LEASE EXPENSE The Company leases office space from unrelated entities under month-to-month agreements. Total rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 was approximately $19,483 and $64,435 (net of sublease rentals of $7,200), respectively. 9. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS During the year ended December 31, 2002, an officer and shareholder of the Company who was in charge of ITABS discontinued his employment with the Company. The Company originally purchased ITABS from this individual in November 2000 for $105,100 in cash and stock options of the Company (see Note 5). When this officer left the Company, the Company ceased its activities in this subsidiary. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company discontinued the operation of its subsidiary, IASI. IASI had no operations during 2003 and at the beginning of 2003, had liabilities in excess of its assets of $900. During 2003, the Company wrote off the assets held for disposal in ITABS of approximately $63,000 and incurred approximately $24,000 of other costs in disposing of the subsidiaries. F-12 Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 9. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) Net assets and results of operations of IASI and ITABS are as follows: 2003 2002 -------- --------- Assets $ - $ 76,333 Liabilities - (13,609) -------- --------- Net assets held for disposal $ - $ 62,724 ======== ========= Revenue $ - $ 92,366 Expenses (87,146) (161,781) -------- --------- Net loss from discontinued operations $(87,146) $ (69,415) ======== ========= 10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND CONTINGENCIES In the normal course of business, the Company's client activities ("clients") through its clearing broker involve the execution, settlement, and financing of various client securities transactions. These activities may expose the Company to off-balance sheet risk. In the event the client fails to satisfy its obligations, the Company may be required to purchase or sell financial instruments at prevailing market prices in order to fulfill the client's obligations. The Company's revenues are primarily derived from a percentage of the assets under management and performance fees based on the appreciation of those assets. Assets under management are impacted by both the extent to which the Company attracts new (or looses existing) clients and the appreciation or depreciation of the U.S. and international equity and fixed income markets. A downturn in general economic conditions could cause investors to cease using the services of the Company. The Company has assets on deposit with its clearing broker which are subject to credit risk. In the event of the broker's insolvency, recovery of Company assets on deposit may be limited to account insurance or other protection afforded such deposits. 11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, receivables, other assets, payables, and other liabilities, are carried at amounts that approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of those instruments. 12. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS IFNI is a registered broker-dealer in securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission and, accordingly, is subject to Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("the net capital rule"). Pursuant to the net capital rule, IFNI is required to maintain a minimum net capital, as defined under such rule. F-13 Gundaker/Jordan American Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 12. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS (CONTINUED) At December 31, 2003, IFNI had net capital and net capital requirements of $12,924 and $5,000, respectively. The Company's net capital ratio (aggregate indebtedness to net capital) was 1.26 to 1. According to Rule 15c3-1, the Company's net capital ratio shall not exceed 15 to 1. Therefore, on a consolidated basis as of December 31, 2003, net assets of $5,000 are not available for any purpose other than meeting IFNI's net capital requirements. 13. GOING CONCERN The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in this regard are to raise capital through the issuance of common stock and/or selling certain subsidiaries or assets of the Company. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company discontinue operations.
