PRIME AIR, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Expressed in US dollars)
(unaudited)
1. Development Stage Company
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on November
10, 1996, for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company from the State
of Delaware to the State of Nevada. This change was approved by the shareholders
of both corporations on November 26, 1997 and effected through a "Plan and
Agreement of Merger" with the surviving corporation being Prime Air, Inc.
(Nevada). The articles of merger were filed with the appropriate State
authorities on December 15, 1997, which became the effective date of the merger.
The Delaware Corporation was incorporated on April 4, 1995, for the purpose of
changing the domicile of the Company from the State of Utah to the State of
Delaware by acquiring all of the assets and liabilities of the Utah Corporation,
and issuing shares of the Delaware Corporation to the shareholders of the Utah
Corporation on a one for one basis. The Utah Corporation was voluntarily
dissolved by the State of Utah on May 18, 1995.
The Utah Corporation was incorporated on August 30, 1993 as Astro Enterprises,
Inc. ("Astro"). On June 28, 1994, pursuant to appropriate shareholder
agreements, the Utah Corporation acquired all outstanding shares of Prime Air
(BC) Inc., a private Canadian corporation ("the Canadian Corporation") in
exchange for shares of its capital stock on a .787796 to 1 basis, thereby
providing the shareholders of the Canadian Corporation with 90% of the
outstanding common shares of Astro. The acquisition was a capital transaction
in substance and therefore was accounted for as a recapitalization of Astro. The
Canadian Corporation was incorporated on March 10, 1989. Astro then changed its
name to Prime Air, Inc., which subsequently was acquired as a wholly owned
subsidiary by the Delaware Corporation, as described above. Prior to the
acquisition, Astro had no principal operations and had nominal net assets.
The Company is a development stage company as defined by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 7. In a development stage company, management
devotes most of its activities in developing a market for its products and/or
services. The Company is presently in its developmental stage and currently has
minimal sources of revenue to provide incoming cash flows to sustain future
operations. The Company's present activities relate to the construction and
ultimate exclusive operation of an international passenger and cargo air
terminal facility in the Village of Pemberton, British Columbia and the
operation of scheduled flight services between that facility and certain major
centers in Canada and the United States in conjunction with Voyageur Airways
Limited. Terminal building construction was substantially completed in May
1996.
The future successful operation of the Company is dependent upon its ability to
obtain the financing required to complete the terminal facility and commence
operations on an economically viable basis. The ability of the Company to emerge
from the development stage with respect to any planned principal business
activity is dependent upon its successful efforts to raise additional equity
financing and/or attain profitable operations. Management believes the Company
will be able to generate sufficient funds to meet its obligations for a period
of at least twelve months from the balance sheet date. There is no guarantee
that the Company will be able to raise any equity financing or sell any of its
services at a profit. There is substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern.
In May, 2004 the Company agreed to issue 1,920,000 shares of restricted common
stock to Noble Securities Holding Ltd. at $0.05 per share to raise cash proceeds
of $96,000, and 100,000 shares of restricted common stock to a director at $0.05
per share to raise cash proceeds of $5,000 for working capital purposes.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a) Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, Prime Air Inc. (the Canadian
corporation). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
b) Year End
The Company's fiscal year end is December 31.
c) Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires
management to make 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
5
PRIME AIR, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Expressed in US dollars)
(unaudited)
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
d) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three
months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
e) Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for the
reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial
statements. As at March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company's only component of
comprehensive income (loss) were foreign currency translation adjustments.
f) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is carried at cost less accumulated amortization.
Amortization is computed on the following methods over the estimated useful life
of the asset at the following annual rates:
Air terminal - Straight-line over 30-year term of land and airport facilities
lease
Furniture and equipment - 20% Declining-balance
Computer equipment - 30% Declining-balance
g) Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long Lived Assets", the carrying value of long-lived assets is reviewed on a
regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest
impairment. The Company recognizes an impairment when the sum of the expected
undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset.
Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of
the asset over its estimated fair value.
h) Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of the Company's Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian
dollar. The financial statements of this subsidiary are translated to United
States dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52 "Foreign Currency Translation"
using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates
of exchange for the year for revenues and expenses. Translation gains (losses)
are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of
stockholders' equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included
in current operations.
i) Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange
Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 ("SAB 104"), "Revenue Recognition
in Financial Statements." Revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or
determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is
performed, and collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company receives income
from the rental of the air terminal located in Pemberton, BC, Canada.
j) Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No.
128, "Earnings per Share" (SFAS 128). SFAS 128 requires presentation of both
basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement.
Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common
shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding
(denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive
potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options,
using the treasury stock method, and convertible preferred stock, using the
if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the
period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased
6
PRIME AIR, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Expressed in US dollars)
(unaudited)
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all
dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive.
k) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". Common stock issued by the Company
for services is recognized as compensation expense based on the fair market
value of the stock award or fair market value of the goods and services
received, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company does not currently
have a stock option plan.
l) Financial Instruments
The fair values of cash, prepaid expenses, other receivables, notes payable,
advances payable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities were estimated to
approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of
these financial instruments. The Company's operations are in Canada and
virtually all of its assets and liabilities are giving rise to significant
exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. The financial
risk is the risk to the Company's operations that arise from fluctuations in
foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently,
the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to
foreign currency risk.
m) Income Taxes
The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set
forth in SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes ("SFAS 109"). Under the
liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary
differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and
liabilities using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance is recorded when it
is more likely than not that some of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized.
n) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 104, "Revenue Recognition" (SAB 104), which supersedes SAB 101,
"Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." The primary purpose of SAB 104 is
to rescind accounting guidance contained in SAB 101 related to multiple element
revenue arrangements, which was superseded as a result of the issuance of EITF
00-21, "Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables." While
the wording of SAB 104 has changed to reflect the issuance of EITF 00-21, the
revenue recognition principles of SAB 101 remain largely unchanged by the
issuance of SAB 104. The adoption of SAB 104 did not have a material impact on
the Company's financial statements.
In January 2003 the FASB issued FIN 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities ("FIN 46"), which was amended in December 2003. FIN 46 requires an
investor with a majority of the variable interests (primary beneficiary) in a
variable interest entity ("VIE") to consolidate the entity and also requires
majority and significant variable interest investors to provide certain
disclosures. A VIE is an entity in which the voting equity investors do not have
a controlling financial interest or the equity investment at risk is
insufficient to finance the entity's activities without receiving additional
subordinated financial support from the other parties. Development stage
entities that have sufficient equity invested to finance the activities they are
currently engaged in and entities that are businesses, as defined in FIN 46, are
not considered VIE's. The provisions of FIN 46 were effective immediately for
all arrangements entered into with new VIE's created after January 31, 2003. For
arrangements entered into with VIE's created before January 31, 2003, the
provisions of FIN 46 are effective at the end of the first reporting period
ending after March 15, 2004. The Company does not have VIE's.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity". SFAS No. 150
establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain
financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It
requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope
as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). The requirements of SFAS No.
150 apply to issuers' classification and measurement of freestanding financial
instruments, including those that comprise more than one option or forward
contract. SFAS No. 150 does not apply to features that are
7

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
embedded in a financial instrument that is not a derivative in its entirety.
SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified
after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first
interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable
financial instruments of non-public entities. It is to be implemented by
reporting the cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle for
financial instruments created before the issuance date of SFAS No. 150 and still
existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption. Restatement is not
permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the
Company's results of operations or financial position.
o) Reclassifications
Certain amounts and/or disclosures in the prior year consolidated financial
statements have been reclassified or disclosure revised to conform with the
current year presentation.
p) Interim Financial Statements
These interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same
basis as the annual financial statements and in the opinion of management,
reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments,
necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of
operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for
such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full
year or for any future period.

without specific terms of repayment.
5. Related Party Transactions
a) Included in due to related parties is an amount of $34,736 (December 31,
2003 - $12,846) which has been advanced to the Company by a shareholders and/or
a corporation controlled by that shareholder. This shareholder controls 100% of
the related corporation. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, cash
advances of $21,890 were made. This amount is unsecured, non-interest bearing
and has no specific terms of repayment.
b) Included in due to related parties is an amount of $49,960 (December 31,
2003 - $26,402) which represents consulting fees and expenses incurred on behalf
of the Company by directors and officers. These amounts are unsecured,
non-interest bearing and have no specific terms of repayment.
6. Common Shares

7. Commitments
The Company's wholly owned Canadian subsidiary ("subsidiary") entered into an
Airport Lease and Operating Agreement ("the "Agreement") with The Corporation of
The Village of Pemberton in British Columbia in 1993
8
PRIME AIR, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Expressed in US dollars)
(unaudited)
whereby it was granted an exclusive and irrevocable lease over the lands and
airport facilities associated with the Pemberton Airport. The initial lease term
commenced on October 29, 1993 and ended on October 31, 1996. The subsidiary
exercised its option for extensions of the Agreement, which currently expires in
2004, however the Company has two ten-year options for extension available,
which require written notice within six months prior to the expiry of the
Extension Term. The Company plans to file written notice with the Village of
Pemberton to exercise the first 10 year option extension.
Rent payable under the Agreement is based on 5% of gross receipts per annum
derived from the operation of the terminal facilities, excluding amounts
received in connection with the sale of airline tickets and other forms of
transportation. The Company paid rent expense of $165 for the year ended
December 31, 2003 (2002: NIL), which represented 5% of gross rental receipts.
The lease commitment amounts for 2003 through 2007 cannot be quantified as the
amount of gross receipts for those years cannot be determined and active
operation of the terminal facilities has not yet commenced. The Company paid
property taxes imposed by municipal authorities amounting to $9,383 for the year
ended December 31, 2003 (2002: $9,859).
The Village of Pemberton in the event of a material default or bankruptcy by the
Company may terminate the Agreement. The terminal facilities shall become the
property of the Village of Pemberton at the expiration of the Agreement.
8. Subsequent Event
In May, 2004, the Company issued 2,005,000 shares of common stock to settle
outstanding debt of approximately $100,000. Included in this amount is the
issuance of 1,150,000 common shares to a company controlled by a director to
settle debt of $57,000.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
GENERAL
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATION
---------
Some of the information presented in this report constitutes "forward-looking
statements." Although the Company believes that its expectations are based upon
reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its proposed
business and operations, it is possible that actual results may differ
materially from its expectations. Factors that could cause actual results to
differ from expectations include the inability of the Company to raise the
additional capital necessary to commence its principal operations or the failure
to consummate a definitive agreement with Voyageur Airways Limited.
To the present date, Prime Air (BC) has constructed the basic terminal building
and proposes to facilitate regular, scheduled air service to Pemberton Airport
to serve the nearby resort community of Whistler. Sufficient funding has not
been secured to provide for costs for completion of certain infrastructure items
including landing lights, airside and groundside related equipment, advance
marketing and working capital requirements. Management estimates the
requirement for a commitment of approximately $3,000,000 to provide a
satisfactory start up of the British Columbia operation. It is conceivable
that a considerably lesser amount to provide for "lead in lights" and basic
weather and ground handling equipment would allow charter operations to commence
on a limited basis. Management is attempting to raise sufficient capital to
allow a "start up" consisting of charter flights from Boeing Field in Seattle to
Pemberton.
THE PAST QUARTER. Due to the Company's negative working capital, the year 2004
