SIMEX TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2004 and 2003
(Unaudited)
(In thousands, except per share data)

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

On December 5, 2003, the Company acquired Remote Business, Inc. (“RBI”), a newly-formed subsidiary of Probity Investigations, Inc. (“Probity”), in exchange for 16,000,000 newly-issued shares of the Company’s common stock. Immediately prior to the acquisition, Probity transferred security equipment inventory with a fair value of $550,000 and the operations of its subsidiary, Remote Business Management, LLC (“RBMLLC”), excluding all recorded assets and liabilities of RBMLLC, to RBI. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. Because the Company was a non-operating company at the time of the transaction and the common shares of the Company are thinly-traded, the purchase price was deemed to be the fair value of the assets acquired. Accordingly, no goodwill was recorded in the acquisition.

Effective January 16, 2004, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Simex Digital Solutions, Inc. (“Simex Digital”) entered into a marketing agreement with Structured Data Systems, Inc. (“SDS”), a Georgia corporation. SDS is a value-added reseller of computer hardware and software. Under the marketing agreement, Simex Digital markets the products sold by SDS. Operating results for the period from the date of the marketing agreement are included in this Form 10-QSB.

Our common stock is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and was quoted on the over the counter bulletin board under the symbol SMXT until September 24, 2003. The Company did not file its June 30, 2003 Form 10-QSB by the required extended filing date of August 19, 2003. As a result, the Company became delinquent, and had 30 days to file its Form 10-QSB for the period ended June 30, 2003 or the Company would be ineligible for quotation on the over-the-counter bulletin board. The Company filed its Form 10-QSB on September 23, 2003, however, the quarterly report was not reviewed by the Company’s Certified Public Accountants. Therefore, the Company failed to meet its reporting requirements and the Company became ineligible for quotation on the over-the-counter bulletin board on September 24, 2003. There was no disagreement with the Company’s Certified Public Accountants, which prevented their review. Their review was not performed because the Company did not provide them with a timely accounting of transactions involving the reverse acquisition with Probity Investigations, Inc., which occurred on May 20, 2003 and the subsequent rescission of the reverse acquisition, which was executed on September 18, 2003. An amended Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 was filed on October 17, 2003. The Company has subsequently filed all of its required annual, quarterly and current reports, and is proceeding toward reinstatement of quotation on OTCBB.

Note 2: Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and in accordance with the SEC’s instructions applicable to Form 10-QSB interim financial information. In the opinion of management, such consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of March 31, 2004 and for all periods presented. The results of operations presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or for any future period.

9


Table of Contents

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. Such interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Simex’s 2003 financial statements and notes thereto included in Simex’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003. Footnote disclosures that substantially duplicate disclosures contained in that document have been omitted. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2003 financial information to conform to the presentation in 2004. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Nature of Operations

Remote Business, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is engaged in the design, installation, servicing and monitoring of digital surveillance security systems for business and industry. The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of RBI since its formation on December 5, 2003 and the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses applicable to the business. The acquisition of RBI included the business of its predecessor, RBM, which has operated for the past two years. Most of the customers of RBI are small to medium-sized businesses located in the southeastern U.S. The largest customer is a restaurant franchise chain headquartered in the southeast and constituted approximately 50% of the business of RBI and its predecessor, RBM, during the year ended December 31, 2003. The business with this chain was contracted with each individual franchisee and not with the franchisor. The balance of the business was spread across a number of customers.

RBI generally provides the design and installation of security systems to meet its customer’s requirements. Most of the work is new systems, but on occasion old systems are upgraded with new equipment. In some instances RBI is engaged to do alarm monitoring. These monitoring contracts are, at present, fulfilled by third-party monitoring companies.

Simex Digital Solutions, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is a value-added reseller of computer hardware and software, pursuant to a licensing agreement with Structured Data Systems, Inc., effective January 16, 2004. Simex Digital’s customers range from public school administrations to small and medium-sized private businesses.

Net Loss Per Share

The net loss per share computations for March 31, 2004 and 2003 reflect 33,340,303 and 16,554,908 shares of outstanding common stock, respectively.

Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Because there was a net loss for both periods presented, the effect of common stock equivalents was not considered in computing diluted loss per share, since the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Note 3: Factors Affecting Operations

Effective January 16, 2004, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Simex Digital Solutions, Inc. (“Simex Digital”) entered into a marketing agreement with Structured Data Systems, Inc. (“SDS”), a Georgia corporation. SDS is a value-added reseller of computer hardware and software. Under the marketing agreement, Simex Digital markets the products sold by SDS. Operating results for the period from the date of the marketing agreement are included in this Form 10-QSB.

The Company incurred a net loss of $(100), in the three month period ended March 31, 2004. Working capital and stockholders’ equity as of March 31, 2004 each were $665. The future success of the Company is contingent upon, among other things, the ability to efficiently manage its newly-acquired operations, and attract additional acquisition candidates that are strategically aligned with such operations.

Note 4: Notes and Loans Receivable

In conjunction with the May 20, 2003, reverse acquisition agreement with Probity, the Company had advanced Probity approximately $530 as of December 31, 2003. Included in the $530 advances were separate notes in the amounts of $262 and $137, which matured as of June 25, 2003. These notes are collateralized by inventory and carry interest at 10% per annum. Additional loans in the amount of $131, made prior to December 31, 2003 are unsecured and not subject to interest. To date no interest has been collected or accrued.

The Company subsequently exchanged its notes and loans receivable, which totaled $560 as of the date of the exchange, for inventory of Kyros, which consisted of video monitoring equipment purchased by Kyros from Wooju Communications Co., Ltd. (“Wooju”), a South Korean manufacturing company and a member of Kyros. At the request of Wooju, the equipment was immediately sold, on behalf of Simex, to Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A., a Luxembourg holding related to the Company’s CEO, Kjell Jagelid, for $560, for further sale, in the amount of $560, by Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A. to Wooju. The Company received from Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A., a partial payment on the sale of $112 on September 11, 2003. Additional amounts totaling $448 were paid by Wooju to Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A. between the transaction date and December 31, 2003, to be held by Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A. as agent for the Company. A total of $405 of these additional proceeds have been remitted to the Company by Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A. during the fourth quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2004, and a balance of $43 remains held at March 31, 2004 for the Company by Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring General Holding, S.A..

In conjunction with the acquisition of Remote Business, Inc., the Company advanced $35 to Remote Business Management, LLC to assist in meeting its short-term capital needs.

Note 5: Equity

Preferred Stock

Simex authorized the issuance of 928 shares of $.001 par value Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series A has no voting rights, but can pay a 2.5% annual dividend, when and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. All of the authorized shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were issued in conjunction with the May 20, 2003 Probity reverse acquisition agreement , and were subsequently converted into 9,280 shares of common stock on or about August 4, 2003. The common shares were returned to the Company under the terms of the September 18, 2003 Rescission Agreement.

As a result of the conversion of all of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, there are no longer any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock authorized for issuance.

Simex is authorized to issue 1,496,042 shares of $.001 par value Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series B holders’ vote with common stockholders as if the Series B shares were converted to common at 10 shares of common for each share of preferred, but the Series B does not pay dividends. All of the authorized shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were issued in conjunction with the May 20, 2003 Probity reverse acquisition agreement, which were subsequently returned to the Company under the terms of the September 18, 2003 Rescission Agreement.

Table of Contents

In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreements executed by and between the Company and Wooju, dated May 7, 2004 (the “Wooju Stock Transaction”), the Company agreed to issue to Wooju, at the Closing, two million (2,000,000) shares of a to be newly designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001. The new Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will convert into 10 shares of common stock (subject to adjustment) on December 31, 2004, and participate in any liquidation pari passu with the common stock, as if each share equals 10 shares of common stock. The holders of the new Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will vote with common stockholders as if the Series A shares were converted into common at 10 shares of common for each share of preferred. The new Series A Preferred Stock will not pay dividends. Immediately prior to the Closing of the Wooju Stock Transaction, the Company expects to file a Certificate of Elimination, which will eliminate the current Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.

Common Stock

Simex is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock, of which 33,340,303 shares were issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2004.

Common Stock Options

On May 20, 2003, the Company entered into Stock Option Agreements with certain of its officers, directors and consultants, and issued options to purchase 6,499,287 shares in connection with the original acquisition of Probity. Options issued pursuant to these Agreements are exercisable for a period of 10 years from the date of issuance, at $.05 per share. The Agreements were restated on July 25, 2003, and restated again on September 15, 2003, in connection with the rescission of the Probity acquisition transaction. In July 2003, the Board of Directors also approved an amendment to the stock option plan to reserve up to 20% of the total outstanding shares.

Income Taxes

The Company has recorded no benefit for income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. A valuation allowance has been recorded to offset the recognition of any deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of future realization.

ITEM 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors. The following discussion should be read together with our financial statements and the notes to those financial statements included elsewhere in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Except for historical information, the materials contained in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis are forward-looking (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These include the Company’s historical losses, the need to manage its growth, general economic downturns, and other risks detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect the good faith judgment of management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by the Company. Consequently, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by the Company in this Quarterly Report, as an attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

The following analysis compares the results of operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003.

Results of Operations (In thousands)

Sales and Gross Profit

The Company, through its newly-acquired subsidiary, Remote Business, Inc., reported sales and service revenues from installations of surveillance equipment of $231, resulting in a gross profit of $107. The Company’s newly-formed subsidiary, Simex Digital Solutions, Inc. reported sales of hardware and software of $737, resulting in a gross profit of $110.

Table of Contents

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses of Simex decreased slightly to $93 for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 from $95 for the quarter ended March 31, 2003. Selling, general and administrative expenses for RBI and SDS were $122 and $102, respectively. These figures reflect, among other issues, some duplication of both personnel and facilities in the early stages of their operations.

Net Loss

During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Company had a net loss of $(100) or $(0.00) per diluted weighted-average share. During the year ended March 31, 2003, the Company reported a net loss of $(93) or $(0.01) per diluted weighted-average share. The $7 increase in net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, was primarily due to net loss reported by RBI of $(14). The Company’s other operating subsidiary, SDS, reported net income of $8.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources (in thousands)

The accompanying unaudited financial statements indicate that the Company has limited liquidity, and may require additional funds to meet its short-term working capital requirements. These additional funds are expected to be derived from distribution arrangements concerning its inventories and from the proceeds of additional financing transactions and sales of its securities. If necessary funds are not available, the Company’s business and operations would be materially adversely affected and in such event, the Company would attempt to reduce costs and adjust its business plan.

Operating Activities

Cash flows used in operating activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 aggregated $(107) compared to cash used in operating activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 of $(56). The unfavorable impact on operating cash flows for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 was primarily due to increased cash flow requirements of the Company’s operating subsidiaries, especially the $124 increase in accounts receivable. The unfavorable impact on operating cash flows for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 was primarily due to the $(93) net loss from operations.

Investing Activities

Cash provided (used) by investing activities for the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 aggregated $142 and $(136), respectively. The cash provided for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 was primarily attributable to the proceeds of notes receivable, representing the retainage by Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale, S.A. of proceeds from the sale of equipment pursuant to the exchange of notes receivable with Kyros. The cash used for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 due to a loan to Probity, Inc. pursuant to a planned acquisition of Probity, which was later rescinded.

Financing Activities

There were no cash flows provided or used by financing activities for the quarters ended March 31, 2004 or 2003.

Management’s Plans

The Company’s resources consisted of $56 in cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2004. The Company continues to seek operating companies with viable products or services strategically related to its core business that have growth potential.

Effective January 16, 2004, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Simex Digital Solutions, Inc. (“Simex Digital”) entered into a marketing agreement with Structured Data Systems, Inc. (“SDS”), a Georgia corporation. SDS is a value-added reseller of computer hardware and software. Under the marketing agreement, Simex Digital markets the products sold by SDS.

Table of Contents

The Company has a limited amount of cash reserves, and is dependent upon the performance of its operating subsidiaries, and cash flow resulting therefrom, to meet its operating cash requirements. Since the acquisition of these subsidiaries is relatively recent and the Company’s operating history with these entities is brief, the Company can give no assurances as to the ability of its operations to generate sufficient funds to meet its needs.

As previously reported, on December 23, 2003, the Company announced that it had entered into a Letter of Intent for the acquisition of Wooju Communications Company, Ltd. (“Wooju”) of Incheon, Korea. The Letter of Intent was amended in February 2004. Wooju, a KOSDAQ listed company, is one of Korea’s leading manufacturers of specialized security equipment and systems. Its principal products include digital video recorders, video door-phones, closed-circuit TV monitors and surveillance cameras.

Instead of the transaction described in the Letter of Intent, as amended, the Company and Wooju executed two Stock Purchase Agreements on May 7, 2004 (the “Wooju Stock Transaction”). The first Stock Purchase Agreement provides for the purchase of approximately $13,000,000 worth of shares of Wooju common stock by the Company (estimated to be approximately 3,714,285 shares or approximately 21% of Wooju’s issued and outstanding shares). The second Stock Purchase Agreement provides for the purchase of 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock by Wooju, immediately after the Closing of the first Stock Purchase Agreement, and for the same aggregate consideration provided under the first Stock Purchase Agreement. The new Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 20,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on December 31, 2004 (subject to adjustments) or approximately 37% of the Company’s issued and outstanding stock. The number of the Company’s shares to be purchased by Wooju is subject to a repricing provision through the first anniversary date of the Closing, which provides that the Company must issue to Wooju that number of additional shares that equal the difference between (i) the aggregate purchase price of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock divided by the average of the high and low bid price of such shares (as converted) for the 20 trading days prior to the repricing date, and (ii) the number of shares issued to Wooju under the second Stock Purchase Agreement. Wooju also has the option (at anytime within 6 months after the Closing) to purchase an additional 18,571,428 shares of the Company’s common stock for $13,000,000 (or $0.70 per share). The Closing of the Wooju Stock Transaction is scheduled for May 31, 2004. Although management for the Company believes that the Closing of the Wooju Stock Transaction will occur, there can be no assurance that it will occur on May 31, 2004, or at all.

The Wooju Stock Transaction was structured to comply with Korean law, and is expected to be accomplished through the use of a bank loan, which is expected to be paid off immediately after the Closing. Because the aggregate consideration paid for the Wooju common stock and SIMEX Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is expected to be identical, neither company will receive any proceeds from the sale of its stock.

In connection with the Wooju Stock Transaction, Wooju and the Company have agreed to enter into a Shareholders’ Agreement, which provides that, until the first annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders after the Closing, Wooju will agree to vote its shares of SIMEX stock to elect the following persons to the Board of Directors of the Company: Hyung-Tae Kim, Kjell Jagelid, Mike Moye, and two other person to be nominated by Wooju, and to maintain a SIMEX board composed of five members. At the first annual shareholders meeting of the Company after the Closing, Wooju shall have the right to expand the board to seven members and nominate two additional members. The Shareholders’ Agreement also provides that SIMEX shall waive any voting rights that it has for the Wooju stock until the termination of the Shareholders’ Agreement.

As a publicly traded company subject to ongoing reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Company will continue to incur significant expenses to maintain current reporting status with the SEC. These expenses are likely to increase in coming periods based on more stringent reporting requirements and public oversight initiatives that have been or are being adopted by the SEC in response to corporate governance concerns and recent corporate scandals and abuses. Audit and professional fees will increase as a result of these changes and the increases will impact the profitability of the company in future periods.

The Company subsequently exchanged its notes and loans receivable, which totaled $560 as of the date of the exchange, for inventory of Kyros, which consisted of video monitoring equipment purchased by Kyros from Wooju Communications Co., Ltd. (“Wooju”), a South Korean manufacturing company and a member of Kyros. At the request of Wooju, the equipment was immediately sold, on behalf of Simex, to Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A., a Luxembourg holding sompany related to the Company’s CEO, Kjell Jagelid, for $560, for further sale, in the amount of $560, by Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A. to Wooju. The Company received from Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A., a partial payment on the sale of $112 on September 11, 2003. Additional amounts totaling $448 were paid by Wooju to Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A. between the transaction date and December 31, 2003, to be held by Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A. as agent for the Company. A total of $405 of these additional proceeds have been remitted to the Company by Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring Generale Holding, S.A. during the fourth quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2004, and a balance of $43 remains held at March 31, 2004 for the Company by Kjell Jagelid and Montain Sebring General Holding, S.A..

As previously reported, on December 23, 2003, the Company announced that it had entered into a Letter of Intent for the acquisition of Wooju Communications Company, Ltd. (“Wooju”) of Incheon, Korea. The Letter of Intent was amended in February 2004. Wooju, a KOSDAQ listed company, is one of Korea’s leading manufacturers of specialized security equipment and systems. Its principal products include digital video recorders, video door-phones, closed-circuit TV monitors and surveillance cameras.

Instead of the transaction described in the Letter of Intent, as amended, the Company and Wooju executed two Stock Purchase Agreements on May 7, 2004 (the “Wooju Stock Transaction”). The first Stock Purchase Agreement provides for the purchase of approximately $13,000,000 worth of shares of Wooju common stock by the Company (estimated to be approximately 3,714,285 shares or approximately 21% of Wooju’s issued and outstanding shares). The second Stock Purchase Agreement provides for the purchase of 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock by Wooju, immediately after the Closing of the first Stock Purchase Agreement, and for the same aggregate consideration provided under the first Stock Purchase Agreement. The new Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 20,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on December 31, 2004 (subject to adjustments) or approximately 37% of the Company’s issued and outstanding stock. The number of the Company’s shares to be purchased by Wooju is subject to a repricing provision through the first anniversary date of the Closing, which provides that the Company must issue to Wooju that number of additional shares that equal the difference between (i) the aggregate purchase price of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock divided by the average of the high and low bid price of such shares (as converted) for the 20 trading days prior to the repricing date, and (ii) the number of shares issued to Wooju under the second Stock Purchase Agreement. Wooju also has the option (at anytime within 6 months after the Closing) to purchase an additional 18,571,428 shares of the Company’s common stock for $13,000,000 (or $0.70 per share). The Closing of the Wooju Stock Transaction is scheduled for May 31, 2004. Although management for the Company believes that the Closing of the Wooju Stock Transaction will occur, there can be no assurance that it will occur on May 31, 2004, or at all.

The Wooju Stock Transaction was structured to comply with Korean law, and is expected to be accomplished through the use of a bank loan, which is expected to be paid off immediately after the Closing. Because the aggregate consideration paid for the Wooju common stock and SIMEX Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is expected to be identical, neither company will receive any proceeds from the sale of its stock.

In connection with the Wooju Stock Transaction, Wooju and the Company have agreed to enter into a Shareholders’ Agreement, which provides that, until the first annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders after the Closing, Wooju will agree to vote its shares of SIMEX stock to elect the following persons to the Board of Directors of the Company: Hyung-Tae Kim, Kjell Jagelid, Mike Moye, and two other person to be nominated by Wooju, and to maintain a SIMEX board composed of five members. At the first annual shareholders meeting of the Company after the Closing, Wooju shall have the right to expand the board to seven members and nominate two additional members. The Shareholders’ Agreement also provides that SIMEX shall waive any voting rights that it has for the Wooju stock until the termination of the Shareholders’ Agreement.
