Board of Directors Diversified Resources Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (Formerly Data 1, Inc.) (A Development Stage Company) Sarasota, Florida
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Diversified Resources Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (formerly Data 1, Inc.) (a development stage company) as of December 31, 1998 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Diversified Resources Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (formerly Data 1, Inc.) (a development stage company) as of December 31, 1998, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's recurring losses from operations and net accumulated deficit raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 4. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1998 and 1997
NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah on July 31, 1984. The Company has a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary, named Data 1, Inc., and a wholly- owned subsidiary named Memory 1, Inc. (Mem 1). The Company changed its name to Diversified Resources Group, Inc. in May 1999. The Company has not paid dividends. Dividends that may be paid in the future will depend on the financial requirements of the Company and other relevant factors. Memory 1, Inc. (Mem 1) was organized February 6, 1996 under the laws of the State of Florida to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of Florida. Mem 1 is currently inactive. A summary of the significant policies consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements follows:
a. Accounting Method The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has adopted a calendar year end.
b. Basic Income (Loss) Per Share The computation of basic income (loss) per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding at the date of the consolidated financial statements.
c. Income Taxes At December 31, 1998, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $4,500,000 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2013. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements, because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the carryforward will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carryforward are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.
d. Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments and deposits with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
e. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized upon shipment of goods to the customer. Sales primarily require immediate payment or C.O.D.
f. Restated Consolidated Financial Statements Prior period consolidated financial statements have been restated to conform with current consolidated financial statement presentation.
g. Depreciation Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, primarily from three to seven years.
h. Principles of Consolidation The December 31, 1998 consolidated financial statements, include those of Data 1, Inc. and Memory 1, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
i. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
j. Advertising The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred.
NOTE 2 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
a. Escrow Agreements The Company is a party to a February 8, 1994, escrow agreement entered into as a source of working capital. Under the terms of the escrow agreement certain funds were held by the Company's attorney in an escrow account and disbursed to repay principal and to pay interest to the funding source. This agreement was terminated under the terms of the bankruptcy proceedings discussed in Note 10.
b. Leases Effective June 30, 1999, the Company terminated its lease for facilities in Sarasota, Florida it has been leasing on a month-to-month basis. Lease payments were $1,551 per month. The Company has since relocated to a facility leased by an affiliate company.

The Company has incurred losses from its inception through December 1998. Management intends to restructure its product lines to generate desired levels of revenues and profit as it emerges from the bankruptcy proceedings discussed in Note 10. Thereafter, the Company intends to seek a merger with an existing, operating company.
NOTE 5 - CUSTOMERS AND EXPORT SALES
During 1998 and 1997, the Company operated primarily in one industry segment which includes the manufacturing and marketing of computer memory devices. The Company's financial instruments subject to credit risk are primarily trade accounts receivable from its customers.

Total $ 194,396
This amount represents notes issued under the bankruptcy proceedings discussed in Note 10 as payment for certain amounts due as provided for in the Company's Plan or Reorganization.

NOTE 9 - STOCK SUBSCRIPTION RECEIVABLE

The notes due from the two officers were liquidated in the settlement of employment contracts discussed in Note 11, and the amount subscribed to by the related party was received in 1999.
NOTE 10 - REORGANIZATION ITEMS
On September 24, 1997, Data 1, Inc. (the "Debtor") filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the federal bankruptcy laws in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division, Case No.: 97-15827-8P1. Under Chapter 11, certain claims against the Debtor in existence prior to the filing of the petitions for relief under the federal bankruptcy laws are stayed while the Debtor continues business operations as debtor-in-possession. These claims are reported in the December 31, 1997 balance sheet as "liabilities subject to compromise." Claims secured against the Debtor's assets ("secured claims") also are stayed, although the holders of such claims have the right to move the Court for relief from the stay. There are no secured claims. The Debtor received approval from the bankruptcy Court to pay or otherwise honor certain of its prepetition obligations.
