SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES General ------- The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Accordingly, the results from operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2004. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated December 31, 2003 financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's SEC Form 10-KSB. Business and Basis of Presentation ---------------------------------- The Jackson Rivers Company (the "Company") was incorporated on May 8, 2001 under the laws of the State of Florida. The Company does not presently conduct business operations and is in the process of raising capital and financing for its future operations. The Company is in the development stage, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7 ("SFAS No. 7"). To date, the Company has generated no sales revenues, has incurred expenses and has sustained losses. Consequently, its operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from inception through March 31, 2004, the Company has accumulated losses of $2,557,333. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Jackson Rivers Technologies, Inc. and JRC Global Products, Inc. Significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Stock Based Compensation In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of SFAS 123." This statement amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation expense for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the exercise price of the related option. The Company has adopted the annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 in its financial reports for the year ended December 31, 2003 and will adopt the interim disclosure provisions for its financial reports for the subsequent periods. The Company has no awards of stock-based employee compensation outstanding at March 31, 2004. 8 THE JACKSON RIVERS COMPANY (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION MARCH 31, 2004 (UNAUDITED) NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Reclassification ---------------- Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to prior periods' data to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported losses. NOTE B - CAPITAL STOCK The Company has authorized 100,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $.001 per share. As of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Company has 79,432,750 and 39,432,750 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. In June 2001, the Company issued an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock to founders in exchange for $15,000 of cash, net of costs and fees. On February 8, 2002, the Company's registration statement became effective. The statement provided for the utilization of an escrow agent for the proceeds of an offering of common stock, pending the sale of the minimum number of shares (15,000,000). However, the bank which the Company believed had committed to serve as escrow agent eventually declined to serve due to the small size of the offering. The Company revised the subscription agreement, accepted subscriptions made payable to the Company (instead of the escrow agent), and deposited subscription funds received into the Company's operating account. The Company then issued shares of stock to subscribers prior to receiving subscriptions for the stated minimum of 15,000,000 shares. Management corrected the subscription acceptance errors by closing the offering and extending a rescission offer to all investors. A total of three investors accepted the rescission offer; the investors' shares certificates were returned to the Company and cancelled, and a total of $2,500 was refunded to the investors (representing a total of 62,500 shares of common stock). As of December 31, 2002, the rescission offer had expired according to its express terms and no further requests will be honored. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company received a total of $80,750 in deposits on thirty-seven subscription agreements for the purchase of an aggregate of 2,018,750 shares of common stock at $0.04 per share. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had received payment in full and had issued the shares related to these subscriptions. In September 2002, the Company issued an aggregate of 250,000 shares of common stock to sophisticated investors for $10,000 of cash, net of costs and fees. In September 2002, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of common stock to consultants in exchange for $50,000 of services rendered, which approximated the fair value of the shares issued during the period the services were rendered. In November 2002, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,926,500 shares of common stock to consultants in exchange for $58,530 of services rendered, which approximated the fair value of the shares issued during the period the services were rendered. In June 2003, the former majority shareholder sold his 10,000,000 shares of common stock to twelve investors in a private sale. As a result of this change in ownership, a change in control was deemed to have occurred. The new shareholder, an individual, was elected president of the Company and the former majority shareholder resigned from the Company's board of directors. 9 THE JACKSON RIVERS COMPANY (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION MARCH 31, 2004 (UNAUDITED) NOTE B - CAPITAL STOCK (CONTINUED) In August 2003, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of common stock to consultants in exchange for $90,000 of services rendered, which approximated the fair value of the shares issued during the period the services were rendered.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION Much of the discussion in this Item is "forward looking" as that term is used in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Actual operations and results may materially differ from present plans and projections due to changes in economic conditions, new business opportunities, changed business conditions, and other developments. Other factors that could cause results to differ materially are described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The following are factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated, and include, but are not limited to general economic, financial and business conditions, changes in and compliance with governmental laws and regulations, including various state and federal environmental regulations, our current dependency on Dennis N. Lauzon, our sole director and executive officer, to continue funding our operations and, to the extent he should ever become unwilling to do so, our ability to obtain additional financing from outside investors and/or bank and mezzanine lenders; and our ability to generate sufficient revenues to cover operating losses and position us to achieve positive cash flow. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained herein, which speak only as of the date hereof. We believe the information contained in this Form 10-QSB to be accurate as of the date hereof. Changes may occur after that date. We will not update that information except as required by law in the normal course of its public disclosure practices. Additionally, the following discussion regarding our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in Item 1 of Part I of this Form 10-QSB, as well as the financial statements in Item 7 of Part II of our Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATION We were originally organized to provide short-term loans to consumers wishing to finance funeral arrangements for their deceased loved ones, while payment of benefits from insurance companies on the lives of the deceased were pending. Due to a change in control of our company and because of the difficulty in securing a line of credit or other sources of funding to establish a loan portfolio large enough to support our operations and return a profit, we abandoned our plans to pursue short-term financing of funeral arrangements. We have now entered the business of providing customized information management systems. We expect to provide innovative solutions for integrating financial and customer information, managing manufacturing processes, reducing inventory and standardizing human resource information. We have recently acquired exclusive distribution rights to a product called STEPS (Straight Through Enterprise Processing Systems). STEPS is a proprietary Java-based platform used to create customized information management applications and information management systems. We plan to market our business management software development platform throughout the United States, Mexico and Canada by utilizing various business software developers, solutions providers and system integrators. Our clients, the solutions providers, are expected to develop customized business applications, using our platform for their clients in less time and with fewer programming, database management, and development resources. We hope to expand our client base and win market share by offering established experts in the various business functions such as supply-chain management and customer relations management to bundle their expertise with our development platform to deliver highly effective business management applications. Because we lack capital, an investment in us involves a very high degree of risk. We are a development stage company and do not presently have any substantial assets or operating business. 12 To date, our activities have been limited to organization, business planning and development, raising capital, and registration of our shares. Until such time as we have established operations with revenues, Dennis N. Lauzon, our president, has agreed to provide an office, office equipment and management without cost to us. We do not have an employment contract with Mr. Lauzon; however, he has indicated a desire to remain with us for the long term. FIRST QUARTER COSTS AND CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITIONS As of the date of this report, we have not engaged in any business activities which provide cash flow, and have not recorded any revenues from operations. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, we incurred an operating loss of $1,740,055 and generated no revenues. The loss consists of sales, marketing, general, and administrative expenses, as well as the cost of acquiring certain business development and software licenses from Multitrade Technologies LLC, a New York limited liability company ("MTT"). In consideration of the transfer of the limited liability company interest in MTT to Jackson Rivers Technologies, a Nevada corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary, we agreed to transfer to Joseph Khan, the sole owner of MTT, 20,000,000 shares of our restricted common stock once such shares became available after we increase our authorized shares of common stock. Simultaneously with the execution of the agreement with MTT, Dennis Lauzon, our president and director, contributed to us all of the issued and outstanding shares in JRC Global Products, Inc, a Nevada corporation, and Jackson Rivers Technologies, owned by him. In exchange for all of the shares in JRC Global Products and Jackson Rivers Technologies, we agree to transfer to Mr. Lauzon 80,000,000 shares of our common stock, once such shares become available after we increase the authorized shares of our common stock. Included in the limited liability company interest purchase was the obligation by MTT to pay the sum of $20,000.00 monthly to Kisnet Corporation, Inc. ("Kisnet") As the result of acquisition of the limited liability company interest in MTT by Jackson Rivers Technologies, Jackson Rivers Technologies will pay to Kisnet the sum of $20,000.00 monthly for software licensing and software sales support. As of March 31, 2004, the 20,000,000 shares have not been issued to Joseph Khan and we have accounted the shares to be issued as common stock subscription payable and acquisition costs of $1,000,000 were charged to operations during the period ended March 31, 2004. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At March 31, 2004, our current assets exceeded current liabilities in the amount of $86,105. We generated a cash flow deficit from operations of $375,585 for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Cash flow deficits from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2004 is primarily attributable to the Company's net loss from operations of $1,740,055 adjusted primarily for common stock issued to consultants and employees for services of $362,067, and 20 million shares of restricted common stock, valued at $1,000,000, to be issued in connection with acquisition of MTT. Cash flow provided from financing activities was $467,432 for the three months ended March 31, 2004. This was mainly from proceeds received from officers and employees for stock options exercised during this period. All proceeds were used for working capital. As discussed by our accountants in the audited financial statements included in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, our revenue is currently insufficient to cover its costs and expenses. Dennis Lauzon, our director and chief executive officer, continues to provide us the funds needed to continue our development and operations. To the extent our revenue shortfall exceeds this stockholder's willingness and ability to continue providing us the funds needed, management anticipates raising any necessary capital from outside investors coupled with bank or mezzanine lenders. As of the date of this report, we have not entered into any negotiations with any third parties to provide such capital. While we have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing needs in the past, additional financing is required in order to meet our current and projected cash flow deficits from operations and development. 13 By adjusting our operations and development to the level of capitalization, management believes we have sufficient capital resources to meet projected cash flow deficits through the next twelve months . However, if thereafter, we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations , liquidity and financial condition. We anticipate that our current financing strategy of private debt and equity offerings will meet our anticipated objectives and business operations for the next 12 months. We will continue to evaluate opportunities for corporate development. Subject to our ability to obtain adequate financing at the applicable time, we may enter into definitive agreements on one or more of those opportunities. THE COMPANY'S INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS HAVE STATED IN THEIR REPORT INCLUDED IN THE COMPANY'S DECEMBER 31, 2003 FORM 10-KSB, THAT THE COMPANY HAS INCURRED OPERATING LOSSES IN THE LAST TWO YEARS, AND THAT THE COMPANY IS DEPENDENT UPON MANAGEMENT'S ABILITY TO DEVELOP PROFITABLE OPERATIONS. THESE FACTORS AMONG OTHERS MAY RAISE SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT THE COMPANY'S ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS On February 24, 2004, Jackson Rivers Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary ("Jackson Rivers Technologies") entered into an LLC Interest Purchase Agreement with Multitrade Technologies LLC, a New York limited liability company ("MTT") pursuant to which Jackson Rivers Technologies purchased the limited liability company interest in MTT. We intend to use the assets purchased from MTT to expand our customer base and product offerings. In consideration of the transfer of the assets by MTT to Jackson Rivers Technologies, we agreed to transfer to Joseph Khan, the sole owner of MTT, 20,000,000 shares of our common stock once they became available after we increase our authorized shares of common stock. Simultaneously with the execution of the agreement with MTT, Dennis Lauzon, our president and director, contributed to us all of the issued and outstanding shares in JRC Global Products, Inc, a Nevada corporation, and Jackson Rivers Technologies, owned by him. In exchange for all of the shares in JRC Global Products and Jackson Rivers Technologies, we agree to transfer to Mr. Lauzon 80,000,000 shares of our common stock, once such shares become available after we increase the authorized shares of our common stock. Included in the limited liability company interest purchase was the obligation by MTT to pay the sum of $20,000.00 monthly to Kisnet Corporation, Inc. ("Kisnet") As the result of acquisition of the limited liability company interest in MTT by Jackson Rivers Technologies, Jackson Rivers Technologies will pay to Kisnet the sum of $20,000.00 monthly for software licensing and software sales support. Following the closing of the LLC interest purchase transaction, our president, Dennis Lauzon, was elected as the chairman of the board of Jackson Rivers Technologies, responsible for sales and marketing, and Mr. Khan was elected as a member of the board and its president and chief executive officer, responsible for product delivery and strategic alliances. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
