ACCOUNTANT'S INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT

We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of FirstBingo.Com, a development stage enterprise, as of September 30, 2002 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, and for the period from March 30, 1990 (inception) through September 30, 2002. All information included in these financial statements is the representation of the management of FirstBingo.Com.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001 were audited by us and we expressed an unqualified opinion on them in our report dated March 22, 2002. We have not performed any auditing procedures since that date.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has been in the development stage since its inception on March 30, 1990, has little revenues, has limited resources and a large accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans are also discussed in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

FIRSTBINGO.COM
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
September 30, 2002

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

FirstBingo.com, formerly Vista Medical Terrace, Inc. (hereinafter "the Company"), was incorporated in March 1990 under the laws of the State of Nevada for any lawful business. The name change to FirstBingo.com was effective on May 25, 1999 to reflect the Company's change in primary focus to the offering of interactive online Internet entertainment and game playing. As part of the acquisition of software in 1999, the Company acquired a non-operating wholly owned subsidiary, Lucky Port Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation. See Note 4.

The Company is in the development stage and as of September 30, 2002 had not realized any significant revenues from its planned operations. The Company's year-end is December 31.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies of FirstBingo.com is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the of the preparation of the financial statements.

Development Stage Activities
The Company has been in the development stage since its formation on March 30, 1990. It is primarily engaged in internet entertainment and the business of gaming. During 2001, the Company received an initial payment on its licensing agreement, but this was not sufficient for recognition as an operating company. (See Note 7.)

Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,738,011 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The future of the Company is dependent upon future profitable operations from the commercial success or licensing of its trivia bingo in the form of the final production of an internet game, television game show and or stand alone video game. The Company is currently putting technology in place that will, if successful, mitigate these factors that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. For the twelve-month period subsequent to September 30, 2002, the Company anticipates that its minimum cash requirements to continue as a going concern will be less than $225,000. The anticipated source of funds is the issuance for cash of additional equity instruments. In addition, management is actively seeking outside parties for the licensing of its trivia bingo game. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Going Concern (continued)
the Company cannot continue in existence. Management has established plans to seek new capital from new equity securities issuances that will provide funds needed to increase liquidity, fund internal growth and fully implement its business plan.

Interim Financial Statements
The interim financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2002, included herein, have been prepared for the Company without audit. They reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the results of operations for these periods. All such adjustments are normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. At this time, the financial statements and the notes thereto, are not considered consolidated since the Company's only subsidiary is non-operating and dormant, containing no material assets or liabilities.

Accounting Method
The Company uses the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
Net loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. Basic and diluted loss per share were the same, as inclusion of common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Provision for Taxes
Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences on future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the "more likely than not" standard imposed by SFAS No. 109 to allow recognition of such an asset.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Provision for Taxes (continued)
At September 30, 2002, the Company had net deferred tax assets of approximately $515,000 principally arising from net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes. As management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax asset has been established at September 30, 2002.

At September 30, 2002, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $2,575,000, which expire in the years 2020 through 2022. This includes $200,000 of losses for stock issued in 2002 for directors' salaries which had been previously classified as nondeductible service payments. The Company recognized approximately $41,600 of losses for the issuance of common stock for services in 2001, which were not deductible for tax purposes and are not included in the above calculation of deferred tax assets.

Use of Estimates
The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.

Impaired Asset Policy
In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS No. 144). SFAS No.144 replaces SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." This new standard establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, including discontinued operations. SFAS No. 144 requires that these long-lived assets be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or discontinued operations. This statement is effective beginning for fiscal years after December 15, 2001, with earlier application encouraged. During the three months ended September 30, 2002, the Company determined that its software was impaired. See Note 3.

Derivative Instruments
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB No. 133", and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities", which is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2001. These standards establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. They require that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Derivative Instruments (continued)
If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change.

Historically, the Company has not entered into derivatives contracts to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes.

At September 30, 2002, the Company has not engaged in any transactions that would be considered derivative instruments or hedging activities.

Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146," Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities ("SFAS No. 146"). SFAS No. 146 addresses significant issues regarding the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs associated with exit and disposal activities, including restructuring activities. SFAS No. 146 also addresses recognition of certain costs related to terminating a contract that is not a capital lease, costs to consolidate facilities or relocate employees, and termination benefits provided to employees that are involuntarily terminated under the terms of a one-time benefit arrangement that is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred-compensation contract. SFAS No. 146 was issued in June 2002 and is not yet effective. The impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations from adopting SFAS No. 146 has not been determined.

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections", which updates, clarifies and simplifies existing accounting pronouncements. FASB No. 4, which required all gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt to be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of related tax effect was rescinded, as a result, FASB No. 64, which amended FASB No. 44, was rescinded as it was no longer necessary. FASB No. 145 amended FASB No. 13 to require lease modifications in certain sale-leaseback transactions. Management has not yet determined the effects of adopting this statement on the financial position or results of operations.

Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" (SFAS No. 143). SFAS No. 143 establishes guidelines related to the retirement of tangible long-lived assets of the Company and the associated retirement costs. This statement requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived assets. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for the fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002 and with earlier application encouraged. The Company adopted SFAS No. 143 and does not believe that the adoption will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company at September 30, 2002.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 provides for the elimination of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations with an acquisition date of July 1, 2001 or later. SFAS No. 142 prohibits the amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives and requires periodic reassessment of the underlying value of such assets for impairment. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. An early adoption provision exists for companies with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. On December 31 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142. The Company does not have assets with indeterminate lives, therefore application of SFAS No. 142 had no effect in the Company's financial statements.

In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities." This statement provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishment of liabilities and also provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. SFAS No. 140 is effective for recognition and reclassification of collateral and for disclosures relating to securitization transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000, and is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. The Company believes that the adoption of this standard will not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.

Reclassification
Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. This reclassification has resulted in no changes to the Company's accumulated deficit or net losses presented.

NOTE 3 - INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In past years, the Company capitalized $205,841, which is the contractual cost of the website and software license purchased from an independent supplier, and $1,500,000, which is the value of the shares exchanged for software. (See Note 4). No portion of this software-acquired during the year ended December 31, 2000-was internally developed and, accordingly, there were no internal costs associated with this software which were charged to research and development. Consistent with SOP 98-1, the costs of the website and related software license-which was purchased solely for internal use and will not be marketed externally-have been capitalized and will be amortized over five years.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company determined that the majority of its software was substantially impaired due to the fact that it would no longer be used in any aspect of the Company's operations as described in Note 1. The analysis performed by the Company included a review by management of the direction the Company would be taking in the future. This analysis determined that the software which was placed in service in 2001 and was being amortized by the Company was no longer being used in the Company's operations. Therefore, the software was deemed to be fully impaired and the impairment was charged to operations.

During the three months ended September 30, 2002 the website and software license amortization expense was $10,292.

NOTE 4 - COMMON STOCK

Upon incorporation, the Company issued 419,520 shares of common stock for $2,500. During the years ending December 31, 1990 through December 31, 1996, the Company was dormant and had minimal activity, resulting in a combined loss of $3,200. There were no additional stock transactions during this period. In 1997, the Company's board of directors authorized a 92-for-1 forward stock split, which increased the number of issued and outstanding shares to 5,244,000. In 1999, the Company authorized a 2-for-1 forward split, which increased the number of issued and outstanding shares to 10,488,000. All financial statement information herein has been changed to reflect these stock splits.

During 2000, the Company issued 244,000 shares for services which were valued at the fair market value of the shares at the date of issuance. Under a 1999 agreement, the Company acquired Lucky Port Ltd, a British Virgin Islands corporation, whose sole asset was computer software. This agreement required the Company to issue 240,000 shares of its common stock. This stock was issued during the year ended December 31, 2000. Valuation of these shares was determined based upon the value of the shares at the original signing date of the agreement.

NOTE 4 - COMMON STOCK (continued)

During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company issued 7,011 shares for services which were valued at the fair market value of the shares at the dated granted. On December 31, 2001, the Company's board of directors authorized a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of the Company's $0.001 par value common stock. All references in the accompanying financial statements and notes, to the number of common shares and per share amounts, have been restated to reflect all changes in the Company's capital stock, including stock splits and reverse stock splits

During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company issued 200,000 shares to two of its directors for salaries and bonuses which were valued at $1.00 per share, the fair market value of the shares at the date of issue. In addition, the Company issued 719,094 shares of stock in lieu of a note payable to a related party. (See Note 5.)

All noncash stock transactions are valued at the fair market value of the shares on the date the shares were granted. This value is derived from the market activity of the stock on the date of the transactions. The market activity is exclusively unrelated third party activity

NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Certain consultants who received common stock options under the Company's non-qualified stock option plan are the Company's directors and stockholders. The Company also received uncollateralized advances from a related party to pay certain expenses. These advances bear no interest and are reflected in the financial statements as advances from shareholder.

The Company received funds from a related party in the form of an unsecured loan. This credit facility is a drawdown loan, with a maximum loan limit of $750,000. Interest is payable at 12% per annum, based upon the principal outstanding, and is due when the loan is called. In January 2002 the balance of the note was converted into 719,094 shares of stock, which approximates the value of the note and accrued interest at December 31, 2001. The shares were issued at a price of $1.00 per share, the fair market value of the shares on the date the shares were granted. As of September 30, 2002, the Company has received from this related party an additional $99,251 from this related party and interest of $7,470 has been accrued and expensed.

NOTE 6 - CONVERTIBLE DEBT

During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company sold in a private placement to accredited investors a convertible pay-in-kind note due October 2, 2002, in the principal amount of $31,985 in cash. The convertible note bears interest at the rate of 15% or $4,797 and is payable at the due date of the loan in cash or common stock.

This debt is convertible into shares of Company common stock at a conversion price equal to $1.00 per share. The Company offered the convertible subordinated debt pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act.

NOTE 7-STOCK OPTIONS

During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company's board of directors granted options to acquire 1,000,000 common stock shares for prices ranging from $7.00 to $13.00 per share to consultants for marketing and public relations services. After the reverse stock split in 2001, there were 40,000 options outstanding with prices ranging from $175.00 to $325.00 per share.

The fair value of each option granted was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes Option Price Calculation. The following assumptions were made to estimate fair value: the risk-free interest rate is 5%, volatility is 30 percent, and the expected life of the options is one year. Accordingly, $15,000 was recorded in the accompanying financial statements. During the year ended December 31, 2001, these options expired.

During the year ended December 31, 2001, the board of directors granted options to acquire 12,400 shares of stock, including 400 shares that were granted in lieu of the forfeiting of 20,000 options granted in 2000 for prices ranging from $12.50 to $75.00 per share to officers and directors of the Company for their services.

The fair value of each option granted was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes Option Price Calculation. The following assumptions were made to estimate fair value: the risk-free interest rate is 5%, volatility is 166 percent, and the expected life of the options is one year. Accordingly, $41,600 was recorded in the accompanying financial statements.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND                                   RESULTS OF OPERATION

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company continues to maintain a minimal cash balance in order to fulfill its financial commitments. All of this cash balance has been obtained through borrowing. The company was not in a liquid position at September 30, 2002, having $ 8066 of working capital. This compares to working capital of $427 at June 30, 2002. The majority shareholders have funded all cash shortfalls experienced by the Company.

Current assets increased from $ 427 at June 30, 2002 to $ 8066 at September 30, 2002, an increase considered by the Company to be negligible. Current liabilities at June 30, 2002, were $ 200,321. These liabilities increased at September 30, 2002, to $246,736.

A major reason for the increase in current assets is that the Company continues to utilize these funds to finance both its day-to-day expenses and its ongoing marketing initiatives. In addition, the funding of the year to date, shortfalls are reflected in the "Note 5 payable-related party" of $ 99,251 and interest of $ 7,470 has been accrued and expensed which represents monies advanced to the Company by its majority shareholders in the first three quarters of 2002. It is important to note that the "Note Payable" and the "Accrued Interest" from the December 31, 2001 statements were converted to equity on January 3, 2002, with the issue of 719,094 common shares at a rate of One (1) common share for each dollar of indebtedness calculated by adding the principal amount of the "Note Payable" together with "Accrued Interest", further demonstrating the commitment of the majority shareholder to the long-term viability of the Company.

The Company has continuously maintained minimal liquidity, however, through its commitment from its majority shareholder to provide funding when necessary, has had no problems in fulfilling its financial obligations. Presently, the Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures. Management believes that there will be insufficient funds generated by operations to satisfy working capital requirements, however, the majority shareholders will continue to satisfy working capital requirements until such time as the Company's operations are significantly expanded or upon the successful completion of its intended financing which was referred to in our first quarter filing and continues to be processed satisfactorily, in fact, the Company has completed a Form SB-2 registration statement which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday, October 11, 2002 at 3:30 p.m. EDT. This offering will allow the Company to offer up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock on a self-under written basis.

 


 

Results of Operations

Upon the successful completion of its intended financing the Company intends to derive its operating revenues from the following sources.

1. advertising campaigns on its website, including merchandising its products;
2. the sale of CD ROMS and its "board game";
3. launching an internet initiative using a pay-for-play model; and
4. launching its television game show.

 

Fiscal Third Quarter September 30, 2002 Compared to Fiscal June 30, 2002

The Company has had no revenues from operations in either First, Second, or Third Quarters of 2002.

 

Effects of Inflation

Inflation and changing prices will not and are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company's operations during the foreseeable future.
