EVOLVE ONE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Evolve One, Inc. (the "Company" or "EONE") is a diversified holding company that
develops and operates Internet and direct retail marketing companies. The EONE
Group includes wholly owned subsidiaries, StogiesOnline.com, Inc. ("Stogies")
(www.CigarCigar.com), A1Discount Perfume, Inc. (www.A1Discountperfume.com), and
International Internet Venture I, LLC ("Ventures"). EONE, through its Venture
division, owns an equity interest in several companies, some of which are
classified as trading securities and some of which are classified as
available-for-sale securities. EONE was incorporated in Delaware on June 21,
1994.
Stogies became an online distributor and retailer of brand name premium cigars
within the United States on November 18, 1998. Stogies' products consist of

On September 28, 2001, the Company created a new Subsidiary named

specializing in men's and women's fragrances. The site named
A1DiscountPerfume.com is located at http://www.A1DiscountPerfume.com. The site

Perfume and Cologne
The financial statements included in this report have been prepared by the
Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission for interim reporting and include all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for a fair presentation. These financial statements have not been audited.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations for
interim reporting. The Company believes that the disclosures contained herein
are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, these
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended
December 31, 2003, which is included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year
ended December 31, 2003. The financial data for the interim periods presented
may not necessarily reflect the results to be anticipated for the complete year.
Certain reclassifications of the amounts presented for the comparative period
have been made to conform to the current presentation.
8
ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NET EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss)
by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted net earnings
(loss) per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options. The calculation
of diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the quarters ending March 31,
2004 and 2003 excludes 24,000 and 16,000 common shares respectively, issuable
pursuant to outstanding options. Theses shares were excluded because their
effect was anti-dilutive.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company granted stock options to directors and employees that are more fully
described in Note F. The Company accounts for its stock options using the
intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25,
"ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES."
The proforma effect of the compensation expense would not be material in
computing the net (loss) and (loss) per share if the Company had applied the
fair value recognition provisions of Statements on Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION," and SFAS
No. 148 "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - TRANSITION AND DISCLOSURE."
STOCK SPLIT
On January 31, 2003, the Company issued a 250: to 1 reverse stock split. All
share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the
reverse stock split.
NOTE B. MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES
SFAS No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,"
requires that all applicable investments be classified as trading securities,
available-for-sale securities or held-to-maturity securities. The Company has
classified certain of its investments as trading securities which are reported
at fair value, which is defined to be the last closing price for the listed
securities. The unrealized gains and losses which the Company recognizes from
its trading securities, are included in earnings. The Company also has
investments classified as available-for-sale, which are also required to be
reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings
and reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity (net of the effect
of income taxes). Fair value is also defined to be the last closing price for
the listed security. Due to the size of certain of the Company's
9
investments and their limited trading volume, there can be no assurance that the
Company will realize the value which is required to be used by SFAS No. 115.
The amortized cost of equity securities as shown in the accompanying balance
sheet and their estimated market value at March 31, 2004 are as follows:
2004
----
Trading securities:
Cost ................................................... $ 10,572

The change in unrealized gains (losses) from available-for-sale securities
included as a component of equity for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and
2003 were as follows:
2004 2003
---- ----
Net unrealized gain ............................. $ 267,595 $ 73,110
Decrease in deferred tax asset .................. 100,700 27,400
Allowance deferred taxes ........................ (100,700) (27,400)
--------- --------
Accumulated other comprehensive income .......... $ 267,595 $ 73,110
========= ========
The Company's investment in available-for-sale securities includes 10,000,000
shares which are not registered of SGD Holdings, Ltd., formerly known as
Goldonline International, Inc. ("SGD"), a holding company primarily engaged in
acquiring and developing jewelry related businesses, with a cost of $58,854 and
a closing value on March 31, 2004 of $350,000 ($.035 per share). The Company's
investment represents approximately 10.4% of the outstanding stock of SGD and
accordingly the Company is subject to certain restrictions on the number of
shares it can sell. There can be no assurance that the company will realize the
calculated carrying value of the securities. The Company classifies 6,159,000
shares of SGD as non-current and 3,841,000 shares of SGD as current, which is
approximately the maximum number of shares it could sell within the next twelve
months.
During the latter part of 2002 the Company became aware, based upon Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings by SGD, that SGD had taken the position
that the Company was the holder of pre-split shares (SGD had a 6 for 1 reverse
split) and rather than the Company owning 10 Million shares of SGD the Company
was the holder of only 1,666,666 shares of SGD. It is the Company's position
that the number of shares that the Company held of SGD as of March 31, 2004 and
2003 is 10 Million. This is based upon purchase and sale arrangements between
the Company and SGD wherein the Company was sold, issued and receive 10 Million
post split shares of SGD from SGD (formerly known as GoldOnline.com, Inc.). The
shares issued and delivered to the Company by SGD reflected the split and the
new split CUSIP change. On November 11, 2000, following the Company's receipt of
these shares, the Company filed a Form 13D, with the SEC, reflecting the
ownership of these shares. The Form 13D had been prepared by SGD's Counsel. SGD
filed quarterly and annual financial reports with the SEC reflecting the
ownership of 10 Million shares by the Company. Should it ultimately be
determined that the shares should be pre-split shares then our investment in
SGD, as of March 31, 2004, rather then being included in the accompanying
balance sheet as $350,000 (current $134,435; long-term $215,565) might be
reduced depending upon the impact of the share price differential on the market
price of the SGD shares and the reduced number of shares that the Company would
be considered as holding.

The Company has provided a valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets
because of uncertainty regarding its realization. The increase in the valuation
account during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 was $17,100 and
$59,300, respectively. Management utilizes tax planning strategies and projected
future taxable income in assessing these assets.
NOTE E. LOAN RECEIVABLE
The Company issued a demand line of credit with Onspan Networking, Inc a related
party where certain officers and directors of the Company are also officers and
directors of Onspan Networking Inc., totaling $1,000,000, under which Onspan
Networking, Inc. may borrow on an unsecured basis at 5% annually. On June 19,
2003, Onspan Networking, Inc. borrowed $675,000 under this line of credit. On
March 30, 2004, Onspan Networking, Inc. borrowed an additional $6,000 under this
line of credit, for a total of $681,000. The Company has accrued $26,331 in
interest on the note for a total of $707,331.
The terms of the demand line of credit state that Onspan Networking, Inc. must
issue options to the Company to purchase common stock equal to 10% of the dollar
amount of the loan advance at an exercise price of $0.10 per share, and options
to purchase common stock equal to 90% of the dollar amount of the loan advance
at the ten trading day average at the time of the draw ($0.30 at June 30, 2003).
On June 19, 2003, Onspan Networking, Inc. granted 67,500 stock options to Evolve
One, Inc. under the revolving note agreement. The options have an exercise price
of $.10 per share. Onspan Networking , Inc also granted on June 19, 2003,
607,500 stock options to Evolve One, Inc. in the same note agreement. These
options have an exercise price of $.30 per share. The Company currently has
excluded these "options" on common stock from assets of the company as the
underlying stock due to market conditions, are not readily convertible to cash.
If conditions are satisfied and the underlying stock becomes marketable, the
"options" would be reclassified as a derivative and recorded at fair value as an
adjustment through current period results of operations.
On May 27, 2004, Onspan Networking, Inc. repaid the entire original balance
outstanding under the line of credit, including accrued interest. On April 5,
2004, Onspan Networking, Inc. repaid the additional $6,000 balance.
NOTE F. STOCK OPTIONS
In November 1999, the Board of Directors approved the establishment of Evolve
One, Inc. Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") to provide incentives to attract future
employees and retain existing key employees with the Company. The Company has
reserved 100,000 shares of common stock for the grant of qualified incentive
options or non-qualified options to employees and directors of the Company or
its parents or subsidiaries, and to non-employee directors, consultants and
advisors and other persons who may perform significant services for or on behalf
of the Company under the Plan. These options were granted in accordance with the
employment agreements. Prices for incentive stock options must provide for an
exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the common
stock on the date the options are granted unless the eligible employee owns more
than 10% of the Company's common stock for which the exercise price must be at
least 110% of such fair market value. Non-statutory options must provide for an
exercise price of not less than 85% of the fair market value. The Plan was
approved by the shareholders at a meeting on November 11, 1999.
13
The Company applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related
interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost
has been recognized for the incentive stock options granted to employees under
its stock option plan in its statements of operations. On January 3, 2003, the
Company granted nonqualified options to purchase an additional 8,000 shares of
common stock to directors outside of the Plan. The additional stock options,
expiring January 3, 2008, have en exercise price of $.001 per share and vest
immediately. On January 3, 2004 the Company granted nonqualified options to
purchase an additional 8,000 shares of common stock to directors outside of the
Plan. The additional stock options, expiring January 3, 2009, have en exercise
price of $.131 per share and vest immediately.
A summary of the status of the Company's stock options as of March 31, 2004 and
the changes during the quarter ended March 31, 2004 and the year ended December
31, 2003 is presented below:

The pro forma compensation expense of the stock options would not be material to
the accompanying financial statements for the current period, if the Company
would have elected SFAS No. 123. The Company used the Black-Scholes option
pricing model to determine the fair value of the grants. The assumptions were
applied as follows:

Evolve One, Inc., Civil Action No. 4-03-CV-1224-A, in the United States District
Court of the Northern District of Texas, Ft. Worth Division (Complaint filed on
August 6, 2003). This action asserts claims for violation of Texas securities
law, fraud, breach of contract, and breach of fiduciary duties. The action
sought damages in the amount of $4,125,000, for the plaintiff, the plaintiffs'
attorneys' fees and costs, and certain other relief.
On April 6, 2004, United States District Court Judge John McBryde of the United
States District Court of the Northern District of Texas, Ft. Worth Division,
entered a final judgment in favor of Evolve One, Inc. and its officers Gary
Schultheis and Herbert Tabin dismissing the case with prejudice. The court also
ordered Lakewood to pay defendants' court costs.
NOTE I. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On June 25, 2004, the company purchased the URL named (www.Auctionstore.com) for
$6,500. On July 22, 2004, the Company created a new wholly owned subsidiary,
Auctionstore.com a Florida Corporation. The Company is in the preliminary stages
of forming a business plan relating to internet sales.
On August 6, 2004, the Company received a late filers notice from the Securities
and Exchange Commission. The letter dated July 29, 2004, stated: "IT APPEARS
THAT THE REGISTRANT ("EVOLVE ONE, INC."), IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH ITS
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS UNDER SECTION 13(A) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF
1934. IF THE REGISTRANT IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH ITS REPORTING REQUIREMENTS, PLEASE
CONTACT US WITHIN FIFTEEN DAYS FROM THE DATE OF THIS LETTER SO WE CAN DISCUSS
THE REASONS WHY OUR RECORDS DO NOT INDICATE THAT COMPLIANCE. IF THE REGISTRANT
IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH ITS REPORTING REQUIREMENTS, IT SHOULD FILE ALL
REQUIRED REPORTS WITHIN FIFTEEN DAYS FROM THE DATE OF THIS LETTER. IF THE
REGISTRANT HAS NOT FILED ALL REQUIRED REPORTS WITHIN FIFTEEN DAYS FROM THE DATE
OF THIS LETTER, PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE REGISTRANT MAY BE SUBJECT, WITHOUT
FURTHER NOTICE, TO AN ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDING TO REVOKE ITS REGISTRATION UNDER
THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934. THIS ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDING WOULD BE
BROUGHT BY THE COMMISSION'S DIVISION OF ENFORCEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 12(J) OF
THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934. IF THE REGISTRANT'S STOCK IS TRADING, IT
ALSO MAY BE SUBJECT TO A TRADING SUSPENSION BY THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO
SECTION 12(K) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934. FINALLY, PLEASE CONSIDER
WHETHER THE REGISTRANT IS ELIGIBLE TO TERMINATE ITS REGISTRATION UNDER THE
16
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934. IF THE REGISTRANT IS ELIGIBLE TO TERMINATE ITS
REGISTRATION, IT WOULD DO SO BY FILING A FORM 15 WITH THE COMMISSION. WHILE THE
FILING OF A FORM 15 MAY CEASE THE REGISTRANT'S ON-GOING REQUIREMENT TO FILE
PERIODIC AND CURRENT REPORTS, IT WOULD NOT REMOVE THE REGISTRANT'S OBLIGATION TO
FILE ALL REPORTS REQUIRED UNDER SECTION 13(A) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGES ACT OF
1934 THAT WERE DUE ON OR BEFORE THE DATE THE REGISTRANT FILED ITS FORM 15.
AGAIN, IF THE REGISTRANT IS ELIGIBLE TO TERMINATE ITS REGISTRATION UNDER THE
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, PLEASE NOTE THAT THE FILING OF A FORM 15 WOULD
NOT REMOVE THE REGISTRANT'S REQUIREMENT TO FILE DELINQUENT SECURITIES EXCHANGE
ACT OF 1934 REPORTS - THE REGISTRANT WOULD STILL BE REQUIRED TO FILE WITH THE
COMMISSION ALL PERIODIC REPORTS DUE ON OR BEFORE THE DATE ON WHICH THE
REGISTRANT FILED A FORM 15."
On August 20, 2004, the Company signed a new five year lease for 5,325 sq feet

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We have identified the policies outlined below as critical to our business
operations and an understanding of our results of operations. The listing is not
intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies. In many
cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically
dictated by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, with
no need for management's judgment in their application. The impact and any
associated risks related to these policies on our business operations is
discussed throughout Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations where such policies affect our reported and expected
financial results. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and
other accounting policies, see the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements. Our preparation of the financial statements requires us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our
financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during
the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual results will not
differ from those estimates.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on an accelerated
basis over the assets' estimated useful lives. Changes in circumstances such as
technological advances, changes to the Company's business model or changes in
the Company's capital strategy could result in the actual useful lives differing
from the Company's estimates. In those cases where the Company determines that
the useful life of property, plant and equipment should be shortened, the
Company would depreciate the net book value in excess of the estimated salvage
value over its revised remaining useful life.
DEFERRED TAX ASSETS
The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of its
deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
While the Company has considered future taxable income and prudent and feasible
tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance,
should the Company determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of
its net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the carrying value
of the deferred tax assets would be charged to income in the period in which
such determination was made.
INVESTMENTS
Investments are classified as either available-for-sale or trading securities
and are held for resale in anticipation of short-term market movements or until
such securities are registered or are otherwise unrestricted. At March 31, 2004,
investments consisted of common stock and options to acquire common stock held
for resale. Trading account assets, consisting of marketable equity securities,
are stated at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses on trading securities are
recognized in the statement of operations based on changes in the fair value of
18
the security as quoted on national or inter-dealer stock exchanges.
Available-for-sale assets, which are also required to be reported at fair value,
with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings are reported as a
separate component of stockholders' equity (net of the effect of income taxes).
The Company's continuing operations consist of two Internet based businesses
within the United States. Stogies is an online distributor and retailer of brand
name premium cigars and accessories. A1Discount Perfume is an online retailer of
premium perfumes and colognes.
Stogies became operational in November 1998 and it accounts for substantially
all of the sales revenue.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company decreased its working capital from $946,932 at December 31, 2003 to
$795,001 at March 31, 2004. The working capital decrease in the amount of
$151,931 consists primarily of decreases in cash in the amount of $76,395, and
inventory $98,580, less an increase in accrued liabilities of $57,125 and
accounts payable of $22,648.
During the three months ended March 31, 2004 stockholders' equity decreased
$51,221, which includes an increase in other comprehensive income in the amount
of $267,595, and the net loss for the year of $318,816. (See Other Comprehensive
Income below)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SALES AND COST OF SALES
During the three months ended March 31, 2004, consolidated sales decreased 29%
from $353,077 for 2003 to $249,799 for the current period. The decrease in sales
is attributed to a number of factors, including the company's plan to reduce
inventory due to a refocus of its business effort to concentrate more on cigar
accessories (including Cigar Ashtrays, Cigar Books, Cigar Cutters, Cigar
Humidors and Cigar Lighters) which earn a greater gross profit percentage than
cigars and a planned move out of the Company's warehouse space. Stogies improved
its gross profit percentage of approximately 32.8% during the three months ended
March 31, 2003 to 38.7% during the three months ended March 31, 2004.
A1DiscountPerfume Inc.'s sales during the three months ended March 31, 2003 as
compared to the current period decreased 184% from $13,940 to $8,306. This
decrease is due to decreased spending on advertising and inventory reduction due
to upcoming move.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $29,413 to $377,515 in
the three month period ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the same period of
the prior year. This increase in selling, general and administrative expense
consists primarily of increases in: salaries and wages - $27,071; due to a
$30,000 payment to a temporary employee for services completed offset by less
employees; advertising - $5,959; due to increased usage of internet search
19
engine; legal - $52,842; due to lawsuit with Lakewood Development (Note H);
offset by decreases to insurance - ($35,315); due to the cancellation of the D &
O policy in 2003; and rent - ($8,310); due to the Company not renewing the lease
of its former corporate headquarters at Suite 240.
MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES
The Company sold marketable equity securities and realized a loss of ($49,050)
during the period ended March 31, 2004, and during the three months ended March
31, 2003 the company did not sell any marketable equity securities.
The Company recorded unrealized gains in the amount of $1,652 during the three
month period ended March 31, 2004 and unrealized losses in the amount of
$(1,156) during the same period of the prior year. Available-for-sale securities
are described in Other Comprehensive Income (below).
INVESTMENT INCOME
The Company had income of $8,392 and $967 from interest and dividends in the
three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The interest
income for 2004 was mainly earned on the outstanding loan balance from Onspan
Networking, Inc., a related party (Note E).
INCOME TAXES
The Company recorded no income tax expense for 2004 and 2003.
OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)
During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company recorded an increase
in its net unrealized gain from available-for-sale securities in the amount of
$267,595, due to an increase in market value . Available-for-sale securities
consists primarily of SGD Limited Holdings (SGD) a holding company principally
engaged in acquiring and developing jewelry related businesses. Our investment
represents approximately 10.4% of the outstanding stock of SGD and accordingly,
the Company is subject to certain restrictions on the shares it can sell. Of the
10,000,000 shares held by the Company 3,841,000 shares valued at $134,435 have
been classified as current. Due to the size of the Company's investment and the
limited trading volume of SGD as well as other available-for-sale securities,
there can be no assurance that the Company will realize the value assigned,
under Statement of Accounting Standards #115 (Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities), to these securities.
During the latter part of 2002 the Company became aware, based upon Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings by SGD, that SGD had taken the position
that the Company was the holder of pre-split shares (SGD had a 6 for 1 reverse
split) and rather than the Company owning 10 Million shares of SGD the Company
was the holder of only 1,666,666 shares of SGD. It is the Company's position
that the number of shares that the Company held of SGD as of March 31, 2004 and
2003 is 10 Million. This is based upon purchase and sale arrangements between
the Company and SGD wherein the Company was sold, issued and receive 10 Million
post split shares of SGD from SGD (formerly known as GoldOnline.com, Inc.). The
shares issued and delivered to the Company by SGD reflected the split and the
new split CUSIP change. On November 11, 2000, following the Company's receipt of
20
these shares, the Company filed a Form 13D, with the SEC, reflecting the
ownership of these shares. The Form 13D had been prepared by SGD's Counsel. SGD
filed quarterly and annual financial reports with the SEC reflecting the
ownership of 10 Million shares by the Company. Should it ultimately be
determined that the shares should be pre-split shares then our investment in
SGD, as of March 31, 2004, rather then being included in the accompanying
balance sheet as $350,000 (current $134,435; long-term $215,565) might be
reduced depending upon the impact of the share price differential on the market
price of the SGD shares and the reduced number of shares that the Company would
be considered as holding.
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company's President and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer and
Controller have concluded, based on their evaluation within 90 days of the
filing date of this report, that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a -14(c) and 15d-14(c)) were
adequate and designed to ensure that material information relating to the
Company and its consolidated subsidiaries would be made known to them by others
within those entities. There have been no significant changes in our internal
controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls
subsequent to the date of the previously mentioned evaluation.

this section or elsewhere in this report are, or may be deemed to be,
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934. Important factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in such
forward-looking statements include: 1. General economic factors including, but
not limited to, changes in interest rates and trends in disposable income; 2.
