PART I

Item 1.       Description of Business

General

We were incorporated in Florida on June 10, 1998. We are a development stage company and have had no revenues to date. Since incorporation, our activities have been limited to actions related to our organization. Our business plan is to acquire a controlling equity interest in or assets of an operating company. Our administrative offices are located at 22154 Martella Avenue, Boca Raton, Florida 33433 and our telephone number is (561)451-9674.

Elsie Sanchez was the incorporator of our company and served as Baxter Capital’s sole director and officer until August 13, 1999. In August, 1999 an investor group led by Peter Goldstein and Kenneth Greenberg (collectively, the “GreenGold Group”) acquired control of Baxter Capital Company. The GreenGold Group acquired control of Baxter Capital for the purpose of listing Baxter Capital’s common stock on the OTC electronic bulletin board of the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. to facilitate a public market for the company’s common stock.

Effective October 24, 2001, Kenneth Greenberg resigned as Chairman and president and director of the Company. Peter Goldstein continues as the sole director of the Company and was elected effective October 24, 2001 as President of the Company. Concurrently, the Board of Directors and shareholders of the Company approved certain amendments to the Company’s articles of incorporation, including an increase in the authorized shares of common stock, par value $.001, to 10,000,000 shares. In addition, Messrs. Greenberg and Goldstein entered into agreements providing for, among other things, the assignment of shares owned by Mr. Greenberg and his wife to Goldco Properties Limited Partnership, a limited partnership controlled by Mr. Goldstein. Following the consummation of the transaction, Mr. Goldstein beneficially owned 928,200 shares of common stock of the Company, representing 92.82 % of the total outstanding shares. On October 17, 2002, the company filed an Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation increasing the authorized common stock to 100,000,000, $.001 par value and authorizing 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.001 par value.

We intend to use our common stock to acquire a controlling equity interest in or the assets of a suitable operating company. The registration of our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 was one step that we took to implement our business plan. We are only nominally capitalized and have no other assets, and no revenues or operations. Since our incorporation, we have not conducted any business other than in connection with our organization and the implementation of our business plan.

Baxter Capital and companies of its type are commonly referred to as “public shell corporations” and the transactions through which public shell corporations acquire an interest

-3-

in a suitable operating business are commonly referred to as “shell reorganizations.” Our management believes that certain privately-held companies are interested in “going public” through a shell reorganization for a variety of reasons. In the opinion of management, the most common motivation is the belief that the private company’s reconstitution as a publicly- traded corporation will aid the operating company in obtaining equity capital and in making acquisitions of other privately-held companies using stock on the theory that investors are more interested in purchasing equity securities where a public market for such securities exists.

In selecting a suitable operating company, although we have established no specific criteria, our management intends to focus on companies with

  * a history of profitability
  * the potential for future profits, and
  * strength of management

Our management believes that companies operating in technology and goods or products- related industries have the greatest potential. However, if other factors exist which commend an operating company as a candidate, such as recent profitability or a recent improvement in operations or perceived potential or if the operating company is engaged in a line of business considered by our management to be strategic in relation to other businesses acquired or contemplated to be acquired by us, we will consider such other opportunities as they may arise. In general, we intend to be flexible about the criteria we will use to evaluate possible acquisition candidates.

We will undertake an examination and review of privately-held operating companies to identify a suitable candidate for a business to acquire. Once we identify a suitable candidate our management will, where necessary and appropriate, prepare a business plan for the operating company using their general experience and business acumen, or hire consultants to prepare analyses of the operating company’s capital, production, marketing, labor and other related requirements.

Although we have conducted some preliminary investigations of operating companies that may be appropriate as acquisition candidates and, in some cases, have had preliminary discussions with representatives of such operating companies, we have not yet reached an agreement in principal with any company. We cannot assure you that we will ever be able to locate an operating company that we consider a suitable business opportunity and reach an acceptable agreement with its management, or that our management has the requisite experience to recognize and understand a business opportunity that would benefit us.

Our ability to complete any transaction may also be dependent on the availability of adequate financing, competition from other potential bidders and general market conditions. In the event that we are able to locate and conclude a shell reorganization with what we consider

-4-

to be a suitable operating company, we cannot assure you that such company will be successful.

We believe that the most likely structure for a transaction with an operating company is a stock-for-stock exchange having the following features:

  * qualification as a tax free reorganization issuance of shares of common stock by Baxter Capital to the shareholders of the operating company equal to approximately 90% to 95% of our issued and outstanding shares in exchange for the shares of the operating company, diluting existing shareholders to ownership equal to approximately 10% to 5%
  * appointment of a new slate of officers and directors of Baxter Capital who are appointees of the operating company

We intend if possible to structure any shell reorganization transaction so that the transaction may be approved by our board of directors without the need to obtain the consent of any shareholders. In the event that shareholder approval is required, Mr. Goldstein acting alone without any other shareholders has sufficient votes to approve any transaction without the need to obtain the approval of any other shareholders.

After giving effect to the expected terms of a shell reorganization with a suitable operating company, we expect that our company will operate as a holding corporation for the operating company.

We are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. These requirements oblige us to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission specified financial and other information regarding any company that is a party to a shell reorganization with us, including audited financial statements for any acquired companies. The financial statement requirements imposed by the Exchange Act will necessarily limit our pool of candidates with which we may engage in a shell reorganization to those entities with audited financial statements meeting the Commission’s requirements.

We cannot assure you that we will find a suitable operating company willing to enter into a shell reorganization with us, or that we have the requisite experience to recognize and understand the business operations of an operating company suitable to enter into a shell reorganization with us.

Competition

Numerous large, well-financed firms with large cash reserves are engaged in the acquisition of companies and businesses. We expect competition to be intense for available operating companies.

-5-

Employees

We have no employees at the present time and does not contemplate hiring any employees until an operating company is acquired.

Item 2.      Description of Property

Through an oral agreement with Peter Goldstein, who is our controlling shareholder and our sole officer and director, we are currently operating from the offices of Mr. Goldstein, which are located at 22154 Martella Avenue, Boca Raton, Florida 33433, at no cost to us for the use of office space, equipment rental or phone usage. We do not anticipate acquiring separate office facilities until such time as we complete a shell reorganization transaction with an operating company.

Item 3.       Legal Proceedings

There is no litigation pending or threatened by or against the Company.

Item 4.      Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

On October 16, 2002, the holder of the majority of the outstanding shares of the Company approved certain amendments to the Company’s articles of incorporation, including an increase in the authorized shares of common stock, par value $.001, to 100,000,000 shares and authorizing 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.001 par value. No shareholder meeting was held.

PART II

Item 5.       Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

On December 18, 2002, there were 48 shareholders of record of our common stock. Our shares of common stock have never been traded on any recognized stock exchange.

Dividends

We do not intends to retain future earnings to support our growth. Any payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon: the amount of funds legally available therefore; our earnings; financial condition; capital requirements; and other factors which our Board of Directors deems relevant.

Item 6.      Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Plan of Operations

We were organized in June, 1998 for the purpose of engaging in any activity permitted under the laws of the United States and of the State of Florida. In August 1999, the GreenGold Group acquired a controlling interest in our common stock for the purpose of listing our common stock on the OTC electronic bulletin board of the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. to facilitate a public market for the common stock. We intend to use our common stock to acquire a controlling equity interest in or the assets of a suitable operating company.

Effective October 24, 2001, Kenneth Greenberg resigned as chairman and president and a director of the Company. Peter J. Goldstein continues as the sole director of the Company and was elected effective October 24, 2001 as president of the Company. In addition, Messrs. Greenberg and Goldstein entered into agreements providing for, among other things, the assignment of shares owned by Mr. Greenberg and his wife to Goldco Properties Limited Partnership, a limited partnership controlled by Mr. Goldstein. Following the consummation of the transaction, Mr. Goldstein beneficially owned 928,200 shares of common stock of the Company.

The registration of our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 was one step that we took to implement our business plan. We are in the business development stage and have no revenues or operations. Since our incorporation, we have not conducted any business other than in connection with our organization and the implementation of our business plan. We have only nominal assets from the sale of our stock to the GreenGold Group and certain other investors in a private transaction. We anticipate that we will obtain the additional funds to implement our business plan from capital contributions or loans made by Peter Goldstein or the Goldco Properties Limited Partnership, although they are under no obligation to provide us with any additional funding.

The Company is continuing its efforts to locate a merger Candidate for the purpose of a merger. It is possible that the Company will be successful in locating such a merger candidate and closing such merger. However, if the Company cannot effect a non-cash acquisition, the Company may have to raise funds from a private offering of its securities under Rule 506 of Regulation D. There is no assurance the Company would obtain any such equity funding.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Board of Directors
Baxter Capital Company

         I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Baxter Capital Company at October 31, 2002 and 2001 and the related statement of operations, shareholders' deficit, and cash flows for the year ended October 31, 2002 and 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.

        I conducted my audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that I 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. I believe that my audit provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

        In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Baxter Capital Company as of October 31, 2002 and 2001 and its cash flows for the years ended October 31, 2002 and 2001, in conformity with principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 31, 2002

Note 1.   Nature of Business

         The Company was incorporated in Florida on June 11 , 1998 and has been inactive since inception. The Company intends to serve as a vehicle to effect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business.

         The Company's ability to commence operations is contingent upon its ability to identify a prospective target business or raise the capital it may require through the issuance of equity securities, debt securities, bank borrowing or a combination thereof.

Note 2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

        Use of estimates and assumptions by management is required in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

(Loss) Per Share

         Basic (loss) per share equals net (loss) divided by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. There are no items to give rise to diluted shares.

         At October 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company had net operating loss of approximately $2,500 expiring through 2014. The deferred tax benefit of the net operating loss of approximately $375 has been fully reserved for due to the uncertainty of its recognition.

Item 14.    Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

The company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in rule 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of a date within 90 days before the filing of this annual report (the Evaluation Date). Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the company concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the disclosure controls and procedures in place at the company were adequate to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, in reports that the company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. Although the company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer believe the company’s existing disclosure controls and procedures are adequate to enable the company to comply with its disclosure obligations, the company intends to formalize and document the procedures already in place and establish a disclosure committee.

Changes in internal controls

The company has not made any significant changes to its internal controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date. The company has not identified any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses or other factors that could significantly affect these controls, and therefore, no corrective action was taken.
