Independent Auditor's Report
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Amazon Natural Treasures, Inc.
We have audited the balance sheet of Amazon Natural Treasures, Inc. as of December 31, 1998, and the related statements of comprehensive income, stockholder's equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. 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 audit. The financial statements of Amazon Natural Treasures, Inc. as of December 31, 1997, were audited by other auditors whose report dated July 17, 1998 expressed an unqualified opinion with a going concern uncertainty on those statements.
We did not observe the physical inventory in 1998 stated in the accompanying financial statements at $444,983. The Company's records do not permit the application of other auditing procedures to inventories. In addition, the Company does not maintain certain customary accounting records and supporting documents relating to transactions with suppliers and customers, nor, in our opinion, is the system of internal control adequate to provide safeguards of assets and to assure proper recording of transactions. Accordingly, it was impracticable to extend our procedures sufficiently to determine the extent to which the financial statements may have been affected by these conditions.
Since inventory at December 31, 1998 enters significantly into the determination of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows, and since the Company does not maintain certain customary accounting records or documents, or an adequate system of internal control, as described in the preceding paragraph, the scope of our work was not sufficient to enable us to express an opinion, and we do not express an opinion on the financial statements referred to above.
As discussed in Note 3, the Company has numerous related party transactions and is dependent upon a related party supplier for its phytogenics products. In addition, as discussed in Note 1, the Company is dependent on its ability to continue to operate within United States Government guidelines for nutritional supplements
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 5, the Company had been in the development stage in years prior to 1998, and the Company's ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations and sustain its operations, either through future revenues and/or additional debt or equity financing, cannot be determined at this time. Further, the Company has sustained losses of $13,645,482 since its inception on June 27, 1995 and has experienced cash flow problems. These uncertainties raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 5. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Executive Level Management would normally view the increase in inventory in 1998 to be a bad idea when one has little cash.
But how did the licensee and Trademark Valuations increase so much over the past 3 years? How is that determined. Granted it is a soft asset. |
