For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004


Note 1 - Management's Statement


The financial statements included herein have been prepared by FACT Corporation (the “Company”) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations, and the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2003, audited financial statements and the accompanying notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. While management believes the procedures followed in preparing these financial statements are reasonable, the accuracy of the amounts are in some respects dependent upon the facts that will exist, and procedures that will be accomplished by the Company later in the year.

Interest is payable monthly on the last day of each month until maturity, at which time principal and all accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable.  If the shares underlying the debenture are registered by the Company with the SEC in an effective registration statement and the market price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock exceeds $4.00 for a ten (10) day period of time, the balance of this debenture and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock.


Note 4 – Other Events


On February 5, 2004, certain terms relating to the conversion rights of the Company's Class C common stock into shares of the Company's Class A common stock were revised by amendment to the Articles of Incorporation, which was approved by holders of the Class C common stock holding a majority of the outstanding shares of such class. The amended terms allowed for the conversion of shares of Class C common stock upon the election of the holders of such shares. On February 10, 2004, all Class C holders elected to convert their 2.0 million shares of Class C common stock into 12.0 million shares of the Company's Class A common stock. Such shares were issued on April 9, 2004, but have been reflected in the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital as of the date of approval.


On April 27, 2004, the Company issued a total of 25,000 Class A common shares at a value of $1.20 per share in consideration for consulting services provided to the Company totaling $30,000.

Subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2004 the Company entered into a loan agreement in the total amount of $250,000 with International Securities Group Inc., which is owned by a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, W. Scott Lawler.

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


Plan of Operation


At present, based on current operations, the Company does not have sufficient cash and liquid assets to satisfy its cash requirements on a monthly basis. While the Company does generate income from sales of functional premix, a line of branded non-dairy crèmes, rental income and negligible income from producing oil and gas properties on a monthly basis, these proceeds are not sufficient to meet the Company's current consolidated monthly overhead, which includes the on-going business of three operational subsidiaries. The Company will require a projected amount totaling $4,778,000 to cover its anticipated overhead, which includes projected inventory and costs of goods sold of $3,732,100 for the upcoming twelve-month period.  Revenues generated from operations (excluding oil and gas operations and real estate operations) are expected to contribute approximately $5,286,800 in gross revenues and offset operational overhead by approximately $1,554,700.  The Company anticipates the sale of both of its commercial real estate properties prior to the close of fiscal 2004, and therefore has not included potential revenues generated from these properties to offset overhead expenditures in its forward looking twelve month forecast.  However, operational overhead related to the real estate operations has been included in our calculation of forecasted expenditures. While the Company has projected gross revenues from its food operations of approximately $5,286,800 over the upcoming twelve months, such projections are subject to numerous factors that are beyond our control. Projected operational costs and overhead of $4,778,000 include $3,262,100 for inventory and premix costs associated with the Company’s functional foods business, $469,977 associated with costs and inventory associated with the sale of our branded non-dairy whipped topping, $125,000 in start up costs for our “at-home” line of premixes and snack bars intended to be sold over the Internet and $920,900 in general operating expenses relating to the Company and all of its existing subsidiaries. The Company will be required to raise up to $317,250 to meet its projected operational costs should revenues realized during the current fiscal year to date remain consistent and should the Company not be successful in achieving its projected gross revenues. The Company expects that it will be able to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing to meet this need, or that proceeds will be derived from the sale of its commercial real estate properties.


The Company entered into a purchase agreement for one of its commercial properties prior to the end of fiscal 2003, with an anticipated closing date of May 31, 2004, however, completion of the sale of this property was conditional upon the building being fully leased at the time of the closing.  As at the anticipated closing date, however, the building had not achieved a 100% occupancy rate, and the sale was not concluded.  Presently the commercial property has a 21% vacancy rate and remains listed for sale at an asking price of $2,700,000 CDN.   The Company has also listed one of two condominium units comprising its second commercial property for sale at an asking price of $455,000.  While there is no certainty the Company will be able to sell either property, funds contributed from either sale would substantially meet any shortfall in general operating expenses.   The Company may alternatively be required to locate additional sources for financing, and also intends to contact investors that have previously provided funds to the Company.


The Company’s budget of $920,900 in general operating expenses includes the expenditure of approximately $347,000 over the next twelve months on ongoing product refinement, technical support, the development of second and third generation functional formulations, advertising and marketing and the start-up of its “at-home” Internet sales program, including amounts paid to employees and consultants retained for the purposes of providing research and development support. The Company does not intend to participate in any further development of its existing oil and gas properties and has commenced the spin off of Capital Canada, which will become effective during the fourth quarter of 2004.


Included in the cash requirements noted above of $4,778,000 over the next twelve months is an amount of $639,000 with respect to the operations of FACT Group, exclusive of inventory requirements and forecasted costs of goods sold.  From the date of acquisition in November 2001 to September 30, 2004, the Company has funded a total of $814,651 (exclusive of associated interest charges) to FACT Group in respect of its ongoing operational expenses.  





2






Should it be required, and if the Company is able to negotiate favorable terms, the Company may look to raise funds in excess of the current cash requirement by way of debt or equity financing in order to accelerate its growth.  The Company is currently assessing strategic joint ventures with complementary businesses in order to enhance and support its current operational objectives.  


 The Company anticipates that its subsidiary FACT Group will hire an additional one to three employees during the upcoming twelve months should the functional foods business meet projected operational and revenue targets. The Company will also look to retain one additional employee to assist in corporate development and financial operations.


Results of Operations


Comparison of quarters ended September 30, 2004 and 2003


For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 the Company incurred operating losses of $124,127 and $698,343 respectively. September 30, 2004 losses include a substantial reduction in legal fees from $198,231 (2003) to $59,464 (2004) as a result of the settlement of certain legal matters during the fall of 2003, a decrease in consulting fees (paid in cash and by the issuance of shares collectively) from $329,097 (2003) to $200,404 (2004) due to a reduction in the number of technical and administrative consultants retained by FACT Group, Inc., and a decrease in administrative expenses totaling $221,191(2004) and $298,186 (2003) over the respective periods.  Depreciation and amortization expenses increased during the respective nine month periods from $58,932 (2003) to $115,586 (2004) due to a one time adjustment provided by the Company’s property management firm in the quarter ended September 30, 2004. During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Company generated revenues from sales of petroleum and natural gas, rental income, consulting income and sales of functional food premixes and non-dairy whipped toppings totaling $1,138,299.  Revenues for the same nine months in 2003 consisted of limited premix sales, as well as sales of petroleum and natural gas and rental income totaling $406,162.  Revenues from sales of petroleum and natural gas during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 of $1,019 were substantially decreased compared to $28,811 over the nine months ended September 30, 2003. This decrease was due to the Company's divestiture of its primary oil and gas revenue generating property with the effective date for the sale being the April 2003 production month. The Company’s subsidiary still holds a marginal, producing oil and gas property which accounts for the diminutive revenue from oil and gas operations.  Associated production costs were also substantially decreased over the respective nine month periods from $19,068 (2003) to 776 (2004). Any revenues and associated costs with respect to this property will be eliminated from the Company’s consolidated financial statements as soon as the pending spin-off of the subsidiary holding this asset becomes effective, which event is anticipated prior to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.     Rental income remained relatively constant over the comparative nine month periods totaling $128,466 (2003) and $143,075 (2004).  The increase in rental income over the comparative three month periods ending September 30, 2004 and 2003 is attributable to certain one time adjustments to the rent rolls as indicated by the Company’s property management company. Functional food premix sales have substantially increased during the nine month period ended September 30, 2004 totaling $757,620 versus sales of $248,886 during the same nine months in fiscal 2003, and represent the majority of the Company’s revenue stream.  The Company also generated sales from its line of non-dairy whipped toppings during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 totaling $224,885, as compared to sales of $0 for the same nine month period in fiscal 2003.


Other income and expenses include comparable interest expenses over the nine month periods totaling $238,559 (2004) and $286,583 (2003).  


Other costs and expenses over the nine months ended September 30, 2004  reflect the recorded equity in the Company’s ownership of Texas T Petroleum Ltd., which remained relatively constant over the respective nine month periods with an equity loss of $48,553 reported at September 30, 2004  as compared to a loss of $48,484 recorded at September 30, 2003.





3






Net losses for the two completed periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 were $361,487 (2004) and $938,730 (2003) respectively.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Summary of Working Capital and Stockholders' Equity


As of September 30, 2004, the Company had negative working capital of $1,796,067 and negative Stockholders' Equity of $119,265 compared with negative working capital of $1,259,137 and Stockholders' Equity of $146,790 as of December 31, 2003. The Company's working capital has decreased as a result of the addition to current liabilities of loans that had previously been allocated as long term debts and increased accounts payable predominantly related to an increase in inventory.  Stockholders' Equity declined predominantly as a result of the operating losses for the period. Additionally, the Company was unable to obtain additional capital investment in amounts sufficient to fund operating losses and cash used as described in our financial statements.


Financing activities during the nine month period resulted in an increase to loans payable of $393,872 from figures reported at the year ended December 31, 2003 as a result of a second mortgage obtained on certain of the Company's commercial real estate properties and other related party loans. The majority of proceeds from the loan were used to retire a current loan in the amount of $387,000, which became due and payable at the start of the current fiscal year. Additionally the Company obtained funds totaling $440,186 from related parties and $19,600 through sales of its common stock to private investors during the most recent nine month period.  Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $283,517 over the period as a result of additions to inventory, associated freight and brokerage fees and certain product development work.  The Company also expended 14,844 in leasehold improvements for one of its commercial real estate properties and $752 for the acquisition of a new computer for its Freehold, NJ office.  Accounts receivable increased over the respective periods as a result of an increase in product sales during the most recently completed three month period.  Inventory was substantially increased over the respective periods due to the acquisition of the exclusive distribution rights to Aunt Lydia’s Italian Crèmes, and minimum product orders associated with the new line. During the most recently completed nine month period, the Company also received proceeds from the sale of certain marketable securities totaling $9,215.


The Company was unable to obtain additional capital investment in amounts sufficient to fund operating losses and cash used as described in our financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2004.


Liquidity


The Company anticipates it will require approximately $347,000 over the next twelve months to fully implement its existing business model, which includes significant marketing efforts, the continued development and refinement of functional food formulations and products, a consumer awareness and public relations campaign, concepts for development, manufacturing and distribution of a line of our own branded food products via the Internet, expanded management resources and support staff, and other day to day operational activities.  The Company may require additional funds over the next three years to assist in realizing its goals should it not achieve anticipated bench marks over the 2004, 2005 and 2006 fiscal years.  The amount and timing of additional funds required can not be definitively stated as at the date of this report and will be dependent on a variety of factors.   As of the filing of this report, the Company has been successful in raising funds required to meet our existing revenue shortfall for the funding of our operations. Funds have been raised through private loans, equity financing and conventional bank debt. The Company anticipates revenues generated from its functional food business will greatly reduce the requirement for additional funding; however, we can not be certain the Company will be successful in achieving revenues from those operations. Furthermore the Company cannot be certain that we will be able to raise any additional capital to fund our ongoing operations.


Sources of Working Capital





4






During the nine months ended September 30, 2004 the Company's primary sources of working capital have come from sales of functional premix, non-dairy whipped toppings and rental income from its commercial rental properties, as well as the net proceeds from loans in the amount of $438,119, sales of marketable securities totaling $9,215 and the sale of common stock with net proceeds totaling $19,600.


The Company is actively pursuing the divestiture of its real estate and completion of a spin-off of its operational subsidiary, Capital Canada, as well as the liquidation of all marketable and non-marketable securities.  On March 6, 2003 the Company announced the pending distribution of all of the issued and outstanding shares of its wholly owned subsidiary, Capital Canada, to the existing shareholders of the Company on the basis of one (1) share of Capital Canada for every five (5) shares of the Company.  Holders of the Company's Class C common stock do not have the right to participate in this distribution.  As of September 30, 2004 Capital Canada is in debt to the Company in the amount of $644,028, the repayment of which amount, and any subsequent amounts to the date of the spin-off, will be recorded as account receivable on the balance sheet of the Company, repayment of which will be negotiated by the Boards of the Company and Capital Canada, once Capital Canada has an independent Board of Directors in place.  


This transaction will close during the final quarter of fiscal 2004, and repayment terms for the amount due can be finalized during that time.  The Company will look to establish the most aggressive repayment plan available during negotiation with Capital Canada's independent Board.   Additionally, concurrent with the spin off of Capital Canada, the Company will lose certain incremental income from two real estate leases entered into between Capital Canada and two third parties, which income is currently realized through consolidation of Capital Canada's operations for purposes of Fact's financial reporting.  The Company does not expect this loss in incremental income to greatly impact its financial position.


ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


The Company's sole executive officer, Ms. Jacqueline Danforth, who serves as the Company's principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, has implemented the Company's disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to Ms. Danforth.  Ms. Danforth has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2004 (the “Evaluation Date”).


Based on such evaluation, Ms. Danforth has concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting her on a timely basis to material information relating to the Company that is required to be included in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Moreover, there were no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.


PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


In our annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 on Form 10-KSB, we provided details regarding litigation involving a group of food scientists from whom our subsidiary, Food and Culinary Technology Group Inc. (“FACT Group”), the formulas on which FACT Group has created its functional food pre-mixes.   On August 14, 2003, FACT Corp. reached a settlement with the Plaintiffs in the legal matter pending in the Superior Court of the State of New Jersey.  As a result of this settlement, the formulas to the pre-mixes and other intellectual property were immediately released to FACT Corp. The purchase price for the intellectual property remains at $2 million, to be paid in the form of royalties on a per pound of product sold by FACT Group.  FACT Group will pay a maximum of $207,500 in additional income to two of the plaintiffs over the next 3 and 1/2 years, the payments commenced on November 2003.  The Plaintiffs will be prohibited from competing with FACT Group for 5 years, must keep all trade secrets confidential and provide training for FACT Group's new technical support personnel.
