Item 1.

Description of the Business

Important Disclosures and Disclaimers . Please note that ProtoKinetix (the "Company") is a development stage company that has not yet sold or marketed any products. The Company had no revenues for the year ended December 31, 2003.

It is important to understand that although the Company (as is discussed below) is focused on various efforts related to the use of antibodies and superantibodies in order to identify and treat malignancies, to date, there has been no development of any product (antibodies or superantibodies) by the Company. Although the Company is continuing to conduct research based on the above referred to and below stated theses, such successful research and development and the ultimate commercialization of a viable product may never occur, and there can be no certainty that any such antibodies will be developed by the Company. Further, even if a product or antibody or superantibody is developed, the desired results for which it was originally intended may not be achieved.

The core of the Company's thesis regarding it's research and development efforts is that there is a protein receptor site (hereinafter referred to as "RECAF") common to many malignant or cancerous cells. The Company has a license from Biocurex, Inc. to develop superantibody therapies for the RECAF receptor site. As of the date of this report, the Company is engaged in efforts to validate the existence of the RECAF receptor site. However, the Company's efforts to validate the existence of the RECAF receptor site may fail and no such site may be located. If this is the case, the complete foundation of the Company's efforts may be undermined.

The Company faces exposure to fluctuations in the price of our common stock due to the very limited cash resources we have. For example, the Company has very limited resources to pay legal and accounting professionals. If we are unable to pay a legal or accounting professional in order to perform various professional services for the Company, it may be difficult, if not impossible, for the Company to maintain its reporting status as a public company. If the Company felt that it was likely that it would not be able to maintain its reporting status, it would make a disclosure by filing a Form 8-K with the SEC. In any case, if the Company was not able to maintain its reporting status, it would become "delisted" and this could potentially cause an investor or an existing shareholder to lose all or part of his investment.

ProtoKinetix's Mission . The Company's mission is to develop a new generation of medicines and diagnostics for the treatment of malignancies. The Company is focused on the anti-cancer applications of certain enhanced monoclonal antibodies, termed "superantibodies," that may improve medicinal and treatment potencies and increase sensitivity in use as diagnostics. ProtoKinetix hopes to leverage technology to create new antibodies and diagnostic assays that will be able to be used to treat and detect certain cancers.


 
     
 
In particular, ProtoKinetix will attempt to create a superantibody that will attach to RECAF molecules. The RECAF molecules with the superantibody attached are theoretically expected to then attach to cancer cells, with minimal or no harm to non-cancerous cells, so that the superantibody can destroy the cancer cells.

ProtoKinetix Inc. is a biotechnology research and development company focused on the application of superantibody-based products for the treatment and diagnosis of certain cancers.

The ProtoKinetix business plan is based primarily on the furtherance of certain intellectual property rights obtained by way of "sub-licenses" of technology from other companies. At present, the Company has no product or products, and has received no patents or FDA approval for any product or diagnostic procedures.

The Company has no employees. Instead, the Company is heavily reliant on the efforts of a number of independent consultants who engage in the Company's research and development efforts from discrete and established laboratories in various parts of the world.

Definitions of the terms used above are as follows :

"SuperAntibody" . This is an industry-adopted term used to describe genetically-engineered antibodies, isolated from a single blood cell, which have been expanded in the laboratory to attack or have a desired effect on certain targeted antigens, such as cancer cells.

"RECAF" or Receptor Alpha Fetaprotein . This is a carbohydrate molecule that is located on the surface of cancer cells.

"Receptor" . A structure exposed on the cell surface used for signaling or transport of molecules into the cell.

Subsequent Financing Events :

On February 1, 2004, when the Company common stock had a closing price of USD $.44, the Company entered into a financing arrangement (the "Financing") and executed and delivered a 12 month, 8% convertible note (the "Note") to Thunderbird Global Corporation ("Thunderbird").

The Note was delivered in consideration of Thunderbird's investment of USD $315,000.00. The holder of the Note is able to convert all or part of the Note into shares of the Company's common stock at the lesser of (i) $.30, or (ii) 70% of the average of the three lowest trading prices for the Company's common stock for the 30 days preceding the date on which a notice of conversion is delivered.

None of the common shares underlying the Note have been registered; however, the Company is obligated to make certain efforts to register these Note shares.

 
     
 
Government Regulations

We are not subject to any extraordinary governmental regulations. This may change in the future if we acquire or merge with a company that is subject to such regulations.

Item 2. Description of the Property .

The Company does not own any real property. The Company is not currently paying a rental fee where it is located.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings .

There are currently no legal matters pending.

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

Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto included herein. In connection with, and because we desire to take advantage of, the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we caution readers regarding certain forward looking statements in the following discussion and elsewhere in this report and in any other statement made by, or on our behalf, whether or not in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or our behalf. We disclaim any obligation to update forward looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies . Our critical and significant accounting policies, including the assumptions and judgments underlying them, are disclosed in the Notes to the Financial Statements. These policies have been consistently applied in all material respects and address such matters as revenue recognition and depreciation methods. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

OVERVIEW

ProtoKinetix Inc. is a biotechnology research and development company focused on the application of superantibody-based products for the treatment and diagnosis of certain cancers.

The ProtoKinetix business plan is based primarily on the furtherance of certain intellectual property rights obtained by way of "sub-licenses" of technology from other companies. At present, the Company has no product or products, and has received no patents or FDA approval for any product or diagnostic procedures.

The company currently has no employees, nor does it own any laboratory facilities. The Company instead, has opted to conduct its operational research and development efforts by associating itself with and contracting with scientists from all over the world who have access to laboratory facilities, and who are able to engage in efforts at these facilities which further the Company's mission.

The core and the foundation of the Company's mission and research and development thesis is that an alpha fetaprotein receptor site exists on some, if not many, malignant cancer cells. This site is called the RECAF site (as if defined above).

It is important to have a basic idea of what the Company's research thesis is. However, one must understand and appreciate that cancer is extremely complicated disease and that the research and development of therapies for cancer are extremely risky. There are hundreds, if not thousands of companies around the world conducting research on cancer therapies. Many of these companies are better funded, much larger and relative to the company, they are far better positioned to take advantage of the financial and intellectual property resources they possess.

 
     
 
The following is a simple explanation of the Company's research and development thesis :

The RECAF is a site which the Company believes exists on many cancer cells. Think of the RECAF site as a "lock on a door". Cancer cells by their very nature are antigens or foreign invaders to the way the body functions normally. The body has cells which create what are called antibodies. Antibodies are the way in which the human body attacks antigens and to cause them to die. The problem with cancer cells is that in an effort to destroy the cancer cell, it is difficult for an antibody to gain access to and bind to a cancer cell. The Company believes that should the RECAF receptor site exist, it will be able to design a superantibody (or enhanced daisy chain antibody) which will bind to the RECAF receptor site (like a key going into the lock of the door) and destroy the cancer cell.

With respect to the RECAF receptor site, on November 22, 2002, BioKinetix, Inc. entered into an agreement with BioCurex, Inc. which provided BioKinetix with exclusive world wide certain intellectual property rights to produce a therapy using superantibodies for the RECAF receptor site. On July 2, 2003, BioCurex assented to the assignment of all of BioKinetix's rights to the Company. On March 18, 2004, in consideration of 400,000 Company common shares, BioCurex executed a letter agreement ("BioCurex Letter Agreement") with the Company which made the "effective date" of the November 22, 2002 agreement - March 14, 2004. Additionally, the BioCurex Letter Agreement provided the Company with additional intellectual property rights with respect to the RECAF receptor site.

Antibody and Superantibody Development . In terms of creating an antibody, the Company's efforts are being led by Professor Max Arella (please see the Company's press release dated September 4, 2003). Once an antibody is created, it must be enhanced or converted into a superantibody. In order to create a superantibody, the Company has acquired access to various technologies from (a) Innexus Corporation; and (b) Perigene Corporation.

On November 22, 2002, a BioKinetix, Inc., a research and development subsidiary of Begland Corporation, entered into an agreement with Innexus Corporation which provided BioKinetix with certain intellectual property rights to develop up to four (4) antibodies into superantibodies using the related Innexus Corporation technology. On July 3, 2003, Innexus Corporation assented to an assignment of all of BioKinetix's rights under the November 22, 2002 agreement to the Company.

On December 3, 2003, Perigene Corporation entered into an agreement with the Company whereby the Company had the right to access various Perigene intellectual property resources in order to create superantibodies.

As is discussed above, the very existence of the RECAF has yet to be determined. Both BioCurex and the Company have entered into agreement with research institutions in order to prove that a RECAF does in fact exist on some, if not many malignant cancer cells. Of course, should the RCAF not exist, the consequences to the Company and its current research efforts could be catastrophic.

Selling, General and Administrative . SG&A expenses arose primarily from professional and consulting fees. We incurred professional fees relating to costs associated with our being a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As a result, we incurred a net loss of $1,528,995 during the twelve month period ended December 31, 2003 (approximately $.05 per share).

Plan of Operation . Our current operations are centered around the Company's relationships with various research and development consultants who are conducting research on behalf of the company at discrete and established laboratories in various parts of the world. The Company intends to continue these efforts throughout 2004.
 
 
     
 
Subsequent Financing Event .

On February 1, 2004, when the Company common stock had a closing price of USD $.44, the Company entered into a financing arrangement (the "Financing") and executed and delivered a 12 month, 8% convertible note (the "Note") to Thunderbird Global Corporation ("Thunderbird").

The Note was delivered in consideration of Thunderbird's investment of USD $315,000.00. The holder of the Note is able to convert all or part of the Note into shares of the Company's common stock at the lesser of (i) $.30, or (ii) 70% of the average of the three lowest trading prices for the Company's common stock for the 30 days preceding the date on which a notice of conversion is delivered.

None of the common shares underlying the Note have been registered; however, the Company is obligated to make certain efforts to register these Note shares.

Sales and Marketing . The Company is currently not selling or marketing any products.

Liquidity and Capital Resources . At December 31, 2003, we had $104 in cash and total current assets of $2,400,104. As of the date of this report, we require additional capital investments or borrowed funds to meet cash flow projections and carry forward our business objectives. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise capital from outside sources in sufficient amounts to fund our new business.

The failure to secure adequate outside funding would have an adverse affect on our plan of operation and results therefrom and a corresponding negative impact on shareholder liquidity.

Inflation . Although management expects that our operations will be influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the year ending December 31, 2003.

E.    Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The history of losses and the inability for the Company to make a profit from selling a good or service has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

In spite of the fact that the current cash obligations of the Company are relatively minimal, given the cash position of the Company, we have very little cash to operate .

We intend to fund the Company and attempt to meet corporate obligations by selling common stock. However the Company's common stock is at a low price and is not actively traded.

F.    Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2003 as Compared to December 31, 2002

1.  Net Revenue . There was $0 revenue in 2003, and there was $0 in revenue for 2002.
2.  Net Loss From Operations . There was $1,517,344 gross loss from operations for 2003 and a gross loss from operations of $0 for 2002.
3.  Operating Expenses . Operating expenses were $1,517,344. These monies were paid for professional fees, consulting services related to the operations of the Company's business and other general and administrative expenses.
 
     
 
Item 6A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We face exposure to fluctuations in the price of our common stock due to the very limited cash resources we have. For example, the Company has very limited resources to pay legal and accounting professionals. If we are unable to pay a legal or accounting professional in order to perform various professional services for the company, it may be difficult, if not impossible, for the Company to maintain its reporting status under the '34 Exchange Act. If the Company felt that it was likely that it would not be able to maintain its reporting status, it would make a disclosure by filing a Form 8-K with the SEC. In any case, if the Company was not able to maintain its reporting status, it would become "delisted" and this would potentially cause an investor or an existing shareholder to lose all or part of his investment.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

 
To the Board of Directors
and Shareholders
ProtoKinetix, Incorporated


We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of ProtoKinetix, Incorporated (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2003, and the related statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, and for the period from December 23, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ProtoKinetix, Incorporated (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, and for the period from December 23, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has not developed a commercially viable product and, therefore, has not been able to generate any revenues to date and as a result has an accumulated deficit of $1,560,810 at December 31, 2003. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1. The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company

ProtoKinetix, Inc. (formerly known as RJV Network, Inc.) (the "Company"), a development stage company, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 23, 1999. The Company was formed for the purpose of developing an internet-based listing site that would provide detailed commercial real estate property listings and related data. In 2002, the Company suspended its original business plan while it considered a potential merger with another company, BioKinetix. In 2003, the Company discontinued its original business plan and entered into the licensing agreement described below. Effective as of the date of the license agreement, the Company became a medical research company in the development stage.

In 2003, the Company entered into an assignment of license agreement (the "Agreement") with BioKinetix, an Alberta, Canada, corporation. The Agreement provided the Company with an exclusive assignment of all of the rights (the "Rights") that BioKinetix possessed relating to two proprietary technologies that are being developed for the creation and commercialization of "superantibodies,'' an enhancement of antibody technology that makes ordinary antibodies much more lethal. In consideration, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the Company to issue 16,000,000 shares of its stock to the shareholders of BioKinetix. A lso, the Company's existing directors agreed to resign and the Company cancelled 9,325,000 common shares owned by the former president (representing the majority of his shares). New Company directors were installed. In October 2003, 14,000,000 of the committed shares were issued. The remaining 2,000,000 shares were issued in February 2004, after the Company increased its authorized number of shares.

Going Concern

As shown in the financial statements, the Company has not developed a commercially viable product and has not generated any revenues to date and has incurred losses since inception resulting in a net accumulated deficit of $1,560,810 at December 31, 2003. The Company's current liabilities exceed their current assets. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company will need additional working capital to continue its medical research or to be successful in any future business activities and to pay its current liabilities. Therefore, continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the additional working capital necessary to accomplish its objective. Management is presently engaged in seeking additional working capital.

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company fail in any of the above objectives and is unable to operate for the coming year.

Cash

Cash consists of funds held in a checking account.

 
     
 
Intangible Asset

As required, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," beginning January 1, 2002. Under this standard intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives are not amortized but are tested annually for impairment.

Due to Outside Management Consultants

The loan is unsecured, bears no interest and is due on demand. Based on the amount of the loan and its short-term nature, carrying value approximates fair value.

Taxes on Income

The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than enactments of changes in the tax laws or rates.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Earnings per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period. The Company's stock split 1:75 on August 24, 2001. In April 2002, the Board of Directors approved a 2.5 for 1 split of the Company's stock. The accompanying financial statements are presented on a post-split basis. The earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the period cumulative during the development stage have been adjusted accordingly. Diluted earnings per share takes into consideration common shares outstanding (computed under basic earnings per share) and potentially dilutive securities. There were no potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period December 23, 1999 to December 31, 2003. During the year, the Company obtained certain licensing rights in exchange for 16,000,000 common shares of the Company's stock, 2,000,000 of which shares were issued subsequent to year end. For purposes of earnings per share computations, all of these shares have been included as outstanding as of October 2003, the date of the original issuance of the shares to affect the acquisition of the license rights (Note 2).

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based equity incentive plan, which is described more fully in Note 5. The Company accounts for the plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, " Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ," and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in the net loss when options granted under the plan have an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. No options have been granted under the plan therefore no reconciliation is provided of the effects on net income in applying the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Compensation cost for stock options and warrants to purchase stock granted to non-employees is measured using the Black-Scholes valuation model at the date of grant multiplied by the number of options granted, amortized over the estimated life of the option or warrant. This compensation cost is recognized ratably over the vesting period. In accordance with APB No. 25, the Company records compensation costs only for stock options issued to non-employees. The issuance of common shares for services is recorded at the quoted price of the shares on the date the services are rendered.

 
     
 
Estimates

The preparation of these 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 these financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

New Accounting Standards

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 147 gives guidance on accounting for the acquisition of financial institutions (effective for acquisitions on or after October 1, 2002). SFAS No. 148 clarifies treatment of stock-based compensation (effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002). SFAS No. 149 amends existing standards on derivatives (effective for derivatives entered into or modified after June 30, 2003). SFAS No. 150 gives guidance on the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity (effective for financial instruments entered into after May 31, 2003). Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46 requires consolidation of certain variable interest entities (effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2003). These new standards do not have an effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Intangible Asset

The intangible asset consists of the license rights described above. The cost of the license rights is stated at the value of the shares issued by the Company to acquire the license rights. The cost is not amortized because it has an indefinite life. At December 31, 2003, management has determined that there is no impairment in the license rights that should be recorded against the carrying amount of the asset.

Note 3. Income Taxes

The Company is liable for taxes in the United States. As of December 31, 2003, the Company did not have any income for tax purposes and, therefore, no tax liability or expense has been recorded in these financial statements.

The Company has tax losses of approximately $1,560,000 available to reduce future taxable income. The tax loss expires in years between 2022 and 2023.

The deferred tax asset associated with the tax loss carryforward is approximately $390,000. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset. The valuation allowance increased by $379,200 from December 31, 2002, and $8,300 from December 31, 2001.

Note 4. Discontinued Operations

In 2003, the Company signed the licensing agreement described in Note 1. This agreement changed the Company's business plan to that of a medical research company. Accordingly, the operating results related to the internet-based real estate listing segment have been presented as discontinued operations in these financial statements for all periods presented.

 
     
 
Note 5. Stock-Based Compensation

In 2003, the Company adopted its 2003 and 2004 Stock Incentive Plans. Each plan provides for the issuance of incentive and non-qualified shares of the Company's common stock and options to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock to officers, directors, employees and non-employees. The Board of Directors determines the terms of the shares or options to be granted, including the number of shares or options, the exercise price, and the vesting schedule, if applicable. During 2003, the Company issued a total of 8,200,000 shares from both plans to non-employee consultants for services rendered as follows:

Note 6. Subsequent Event

On February 1, 2004, the Company executed a subscription agreement under which the Company issued and sold to subscribers an 8% secured convertible note in exchange for $315,000. The note is due February 1, 2005, and is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at the lower of $.30 per share or 70% of the average of the three lowest trading prices for the 30 days prior to the conversion date.

Research Experience

Since 1997 I have been involved in research to demonstrate the value of a 53 Kd protein. This protein is produced by the epithelial cells that line the ducts of breast tissue. It is a naturally occurring protein that regulates cell growth of mammary tissue and of malignancies that arise from breast tissue. We have demonstrated a relationship between a deficiency of this protein and a risk for developing breast cancer. We have also shown that we can stop the growth of breast cancer cells in the laboratory, in balb mice and some palliative women who were dying of breast cancer responded well when treated with this protein. We are now trying to synthesize this protein.

Volunteer Work

January/February 1998: Worked in an 18 bed mission hospital in Ste. Clotilde, Peru and with the Interplast Surgical team in Iquitos, Peru.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, currently consisting of Dr. John Todd, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures within 90 days of the filing date of this quarterly report, and based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings. There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
Disclosure controls and procedures are the controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
