RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, and should further be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in this report. Comparisons made between reporting periods herein are for the three and nine- month periods ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the same period in 2005.

Revenues for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006, increased to $261,154 from $42,405 in revenues for 2005. The Company's net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, decreased to $426,273 from $468,327 in 2005. The Company's expenses for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006, as compared to 2005, are set forth below:

The increase in expenses for the third quarter of 2006 relative to the same period for 2005 is primarily related to the increase in general & administrative expenses to $1,113,960 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, as compared to $672,535 for the same period in 2005, legal and professional expenses increasing to $119,507 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, as compared to $109,510 for the same period in 2005, research and development expenses decreased to $ 0 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, as compared to $66,350 for the same period in 2005, and cost of goods sold increasing to $266,107 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, as compared to $93,874 for the same period in 2005.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, increased to $771,791 as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $481,581 for the same period in 2005. This increase is mainly attributable to the increase of operations and the acquisition of additional subsidiaries in the development stages of operations. The increase in net loss of $1,579,655 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to a net loss of $1,455,624 for the same period in 2005, was primarily due to an increase in G & A expenses.

Net cash used in investing activities increased to $ 403,259 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to $302,127 for the same period in 2005. This increase is due to the purchase of BizAuctions, Inc., and the purchase of inventory assets relating to various contracts the Company has with the retailer-wholesalers.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,216,128 for nine-months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $1,062,033 for the same period in 2005. This increase is due to increased borrowing and the issuance of common stock effected to facilitate our investing activities.

The Company has relied upon its chief executive officer for its capital requirements and liquidity, in addition to raising capital from investors at the subsidiary level. The Company's recurring losses, lack of cash flow, and lack of cash on hand raise substantial doubts about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with respect to these matters include raising additional working capital through equity or debt financing and acquisitions of ongoing concerns, which generate profits, ultimately allowing the Company to achieve consistent profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not participate in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structure finance or special purpose entities ("SPEs"), which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes as part of our ongoing business. As of September 30, 2006, we were not involved in any unconsolidated SPE transactions.
