NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (Dollars and Shares in Thousands, Except Per Share Data) NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Company Description and Nature of Operations Home Solutions of America, Inc. ("we," "us," "Home Solutions," or the "Company") is a Delaware corporation that was incorporated in 1998. Our growth strategy is to become a leading provider of specialty residential services that protect the homeowner's single largest investment - their home. We seek a dominant market position through the acquisition of strategic, specialized, profitable and well-managed residential service companies, and through the above average internal growth of these operations. Home Solutions will provide services such as cleaning and fabric protection, fire and water restoration, and residential renovation sales. In November 2002, Home Solutions acquired PW Stephens, Inc. ("PWS"), a provider of residential and light commercial indoor air remediation services, for $13,402, consisting of cash, the exchange of certain assets, seller notes, commissions and other costs. These operations are included in our 2003 financial results. In July 2003, the Company closed the acquisition of Central Texas Residential Services, Inc. ("CTRS") and Fiber Seal Systems, LP ("FSS"). CTRS and FSS operations are included in our 2003 financial results, beginning July 2003. Currently, a letter of intent is outstanding for Quality Interiors, Inc. and for Southern Exposure (See Note 2). The Company is aggressively acquiring complementary specialty residential services businesses as part of its announced strategy. The accompanying unaudited, interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and Regulation S-B, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and related notes as contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2002. In the opinion of management, the interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for fair presentation of the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of results of operations to be expected for the full year. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Home Solutions of America, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of the contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management include, among others, the realizability of accounts receivable, property and equipment and goodwill, and valuation of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the net assets acquired in a business combination and is not amortized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Management reviews, on an annual basis, the carrying value of goodwill in order to determine whether impairment has occurred. Impairment is based on several factors including the Company's projection of future undiscounted operating cash flows. If an impairment of the carrying value were to be indicated by this review, the Company would adjust the carrying value of goodwill to its estimated fair value. Long-Lived Assets The Company's management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of long-lived asset impairment, if any, is measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which long-lived asset impairment is determined by management. At September 30, 2003, the Company's management believes there is no impairment of its long-lived assets. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company's products and services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future. Other Assets During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company prepaid cash of $60, accrued $7 in accounts payable and issued a warrant to purchase 50 shares of the Company's stock at $3 per share for American Stock Exchange initial listing fees and related consulting fees. The warrant vests immediately, expires in July 2007, and is valued at $49 (using the Black-Scholes option pricing model on the date of grant). The Company will amortize this total prepaid cost of $116 over a 3-year period, which is the management's estimate of the period of benefit. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company amortized $10 of this prepaid cost to selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. 5 HOME SOLUTIONS OF AMERICA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (Dollars and Shares in Thousands, Except Per Share Data) NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued Revenue Recognition Since the purchase of PWS, revenue is recognized at the time the contract and related services are performed. Prior to that time, the Company reported revenues from fixed priced contracts using the percentage of completion method for financial reporting purposes. Under the percentage of completion method, revenues with respect to individual contracts were recognized in the proportion that costs incurred to date bore to total estimated costs. Revenue and cost estimates were subject to revision during the terms of the contracts, and any required adjustments were made in the periods in which the revisions become known. Provision was made, where applicable, for the entire amount of future estimated losses on contracts in progress when such losses were determined. General and administrative costs were not allocated to contract costs and were charged to expense as incurred. The Company recognized revenues from time and materials contracts and consulting services as those services were performed. Advance payments made under these contracts were recorded as deferred revenue and recognized when the related services were performed. Stock-Based Compensation The Company uses the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, as amended, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Company accounts for non-employee stock-based compensation under SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." At September 30, 2003, the Company has two stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 4. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, no compensation expense was recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for options issued to employees pursuant to APB 25. No other stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, as all options granted in these periods ended under those plans had either exercise prices equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant or the vesting period starts after the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended Sept. 30, Sept. 30, ---------------------- ----------------------- 2003 2002 2003 2002 -------- -------- -------- --------- Net income (loss) as reported $ 43 $ (275) $ (119) $ (255) Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense under APB 25 -- -- -- -- Add: Total stock-based employee compensation expense under fair value based method for all awards, net of related tax effects -- (55) (77) (226) -------- -------- -------- --------- Pro forma net income (loss) $ 43 $ (330) $ (196) $ (481) ======== ======== ======== ========= Basic and diluted income (loss) per share - as reported $ 0.00 $ (0.03) $ (0.01) $ (0.03) ======== ======== ======== ========= Basic and diluted loss per share - pro forma $ 0.00 $ (0.04) $ (0.02) (0.05) ======== ======== ======== ========= Other Income During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company recognized income of $152 from extinguishment of old accounts payable balances of the Company's inactive subsidiary that is no longer legally collectible by the vendors. The income is recorded in other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Comprehensive Income During the periods presented, the Company had no items of comprehensive income and, therefore, has not presented a statement of comprehensive income. 6 HOME SOLUTIONS OF AMERICA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (Dollars and Shares in Thousands, Except Per Share Data) NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued Per Share Data Basic earnings per share ("BEPS") is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period of computation. Diluted earnings per share ("DEPS") gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period of computation. The computation of DEPS does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an antidilutive effect on earnings. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had the following potentially dilutive securities that would affect loss per share if they were to be dilutive: 2002 ------- Options 347 Warrants 18 ------- 365 ======= Business Segments The Company currently operates in two segments, restoration services, including indoor air contaminate abatement for residential and light commercial properties, and cleaning and fabric protection services, including selling and franchising the Fiber-Seal(R) furniture care system. For the periods presented, cleaning and fabric protection services revenues are less than 10% of total revenues; therefore, segment disclosures are not presented herein. NOTE 2 - DISPOSITIONS AND ACQUISITIONS On February 22, 2002, the Company sold all of its shares of Point To Point Network Services, Inc. ("PTP") to Point to Point of Louisiana, Inc., a Louisiana corporation (the "Buyer"). The sale price was $1,000, which the Buyer paid by issuing a Secured Promissory Note (the "Note") to the Company. The Note had interest at 6.5% per annum, and required a payment of accrued interest on February 22, 2003, and a payment of accrued interest and $100 of principal on February 22, 2004, and all remaining principal and interest accrued thereon on February 22, 2005. The Note was secured by the stock sold, pursuant to a Stock Pledge Agreement dated February 22, 2002. The Note was assigned to the former stockholder of PWS in connection with the acquisition of PWS on November 1, 2002. PTP had revenues of $253 and incurred a loss from operations of $143 during the first quarter of 2002. The loss on sale of PTP is comprised of the following: Current assets $ 811 Property and equipment 476 Goodwill 837 Current liabilities (1,066) Long-term liabilities (12) ------ Net book value of net assets sold 1,046 Legal and other transaction costs 58 Sale price (1,000) ------ $ (104) ====== Prior to the sale of PTP, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a former employee and stockholder of PTP. The agreement required the former stockholder to transfer 1,800 of the 2,000 shares of the Company's common stock issued in the acquisition of PTP back to the Company. As a result, the Company reduced previously recorded goodwill related to PTP by $2,628, the value of the shares on the date of acquisition. Commensurate with the announcement in August 2002 of the Company's strategy of acquiring companies in the specialty residential services industry, on December 27, 2002, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, the Company purchased 100% of the outstanding stock of PWS. The sale was effective November 1, 2002, and has been accounted for as a purchase. The purchase price was comprised of the following: Cash $ 1,000 Notes payable 8,809 Assignment of notes receivable 1,175 Cancellation of note receivable 1,154 Value of warrants 425 Commissions, legal, accounting and other costs 839 ------- 13,402 ======= 7 HOME SOLUTIONS OF AMERICA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (Dollars and Shares in Thousands, Except Per Share Data) The purchase price was allocated as follows: Current assets $ 4,386 Property and equipment 2,022 Other long-term assets 160 Current liabilities (2,552) Long-term liabilities (1,429) ------- Estimated fair value of tangible net assets acquired 2,587 Goodwill and other intangible assets 10,815 ------- 13,402 ======= The Company has classified the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the tangible net assets acquired as goodwill as of September 30, 2003, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company is in the process of analyzing the components of the intangible assets and will have an appraisal performed by a third party during 2003 to determine final purchase price allocation. In July 2003, the Company acquired Central Texas Residential Services, Inc ("CTRS") for 850 shares of common stock, 600 shares of which are held in escrow pending CTRS reaching certain financial targets. The 600 shares are not considered outstanding by the Company as the contingency has not been satisfied. In July 2003, the Company acquired Fiber Seal Systems, LP ("FSS") for 300 shares of common stock, a promissory note of $520, and a warrant to purchase 250 additional shares of the Company. The 250 warrants are subject to FSS meeting certain financial targets. In the event the Company either does not repay the $520 note on December 31, 2003 or does not raise $2,000 in debt or equity capital, the seller of FSS can exercise a repurchase option in exchange for canceling the $520 note and returning the 250 warrants. This repurchase option is valid for one day, January 2, 2004. In addition, the Company would then have a 30-day option to purchase the undeveloped Houston market franchise from FSS for $125. The purchase price of CTRS and FSS was comprised of the following: 550 shares of the Company's common stock $ 1,327 Notes payable (see Note 3) 520 Commissions and other costs 280 ------- 2,127 ======= The purchase price of CTRS and FSS was allocated as follows: Current assets $ 105 Property and equipment 432 Current liabilities (23) ------- Estimated fair value of tangible net assets acquired 514 Goodwill and other intangible assets 1,613 ------- $ 2,127 ======= The Company has classified the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the tangible net assets acquired as goodwill as of September 30, 2003, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company is in the process of analyzing the components of the intangible assets and will have an appraisal performed by a third party during 2004 to determine final purchase price allocation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the operations of PWS from November 1, 2002 forward and CTRS and FSS since July 2003. The following unaudited pro forma information presents the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, as though the acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 2002: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2003 2002 2003 2002 -------- -------- -------- ------ Revenue $ 3,781 $ 4,035 $ 11,135 11,456 Net income (loss) 60 6 (184) 771 Earnings (loss) per share 0.00 0.00 (0.01) 0.06 8 HOME SOLUTIONS OF AMERICA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (Dollars and Shares in Thousands, Except Per Share Data) Letters of Intent The following letters of intent are currently outstanding at the time of this 10 Q filing: Quality Interiors, Inc. In June 2003, the Company entered into a letter of intent to acquire Quality Interiors, Inc., a company that provides restoration services, for $6,750 in total consideration, including: (i) 1,333 common shares of Home Solutions and (ii) $2,750 in cash or seller note. SE, Inc. In October 2003, the Company entered into a letter of intent to acquire SE, Inc. and related companies. SE, Inc. provides specialty interior installation services in the southeastern portion of the United States. The purchase price is $9,500 in total consideration, including: (i) 1,000 common shares of Home Solutions; (ii) $4,500 in seller notes and (iii) $2,500 in cash. These acquisitions are expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2003; however, they are subject to the satisfactory completion of our due diligence review, and the successful negotiation and execution of definitive purchase and/or loan agreements, which will contain numerous conditions to closing. There can be no assurance that we will be able to consummate these transactions. We will continue to aggressively pursue the acquisition of companies that provide specialty residential services as we proceed with our growth strategy. Our ability to acquire such businesses will be dependent upon, among other factors, our ability to obtain outside financing and/or issue shares of the Company's common stock as a portion of the purchase price. NOTE 3 - SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM DEBT Short-Term Debt In the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company borrowed a total of $500, of which $250 was from an affiliate of a stockholder of the Company and $250 from two unrelated entities, to fund general working capital.

The Company has a $520 note to Amherst Merritt International, the seller of FSS, due at the earlier of 12/31/03 or the date in which the Company completes a debt or equity offering of at least $2,000. Interest is computed at the prime rate. In June 2003, the Company converted $2,242 in seller debt from the PWS transaction into 862,479 shares of common stock of the Company. In addition, the Company renewed and extended a $1,500 payment due in March 2003 to the seller of PWS into a $1,554 promissory note payable quarterly over the next five years with an interest rate of 6%. In addition, as part of this transaction, the Company sold $823 in non-essential assets back to the seller of PWS in exchange for a $786 reduction in debt owed to the seller and an assumption of $101 in capital lease obligations, recognizing a gain of $64. 9 HOME SOLUTIONS OF AMERICA, INC.

The exercise price of the awards shall be determined by the Plan administrator at the date of grant, but shall not be less than the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant for employees, or 85 percent of the fair market value for non-employees. The exercise period shall be no more than 10 years and the awards will vest over a period of time determinable by the Board of Directors. The number of options under the 2001 Plan available for grant at September 30, 2003 was 1,410. At the Company's 2003 annual stockholders' meeting, which was held on May 20, 2003, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to the 2001 Plan that increased the options available for grant under the 2001 Plan by 1,000, bringing the total to 3,000. The Company's Board of Directors approved the 1998 Stock Option Plan (the "1998 Plan"). The 1998 Plan covers two types of options: incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options. The aggregate number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the 1998 Plan may not exceed 2,000 shares. The exercise price for the options shall be determined by the Plan administrator at the date of grant, but shall not be less than the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant. The option period can be no more than 10 years and the options will vest over a period of time determinable by the Board of Directors. The number of options under the 1998 Plan available for grant at September 30, 2003 was 867. At the Company's 2003 annual stockholders' meeting, which was held on May 20, 2003, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to the 1998 Plan that increased the options available for grant under the 1998 Plan by 1,000, bringing the total to 2,000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company issued options to purchase 500 shares of the Company's common stock (at $2.00 to $2.10) (fair value on the date of grant) to its officers under the 1998 Plan, and options to purchase 300 shares (at $1.65 to $1.75 per share, the fair values on the date of grant) to each of the three new directors of the Company, with all such options vesting over a three-year period, under the 2001 Plan. The Company also amended an officer's 170 options to fully vest all options in the event that the officer is terminated prior to the expiration of his employment agreement. Warrants From time to time, the Company issues warrants pursuant to various consulting and third party agreements. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company recorded a consulting expense of $102 related to warrants issued in the year ended December 31, 2002, and which fair value is recognized over the period of service. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company recorded a prepaid expense of $49 for the fair value of warrant issued for consulting fees related to American Stock Exchange listing (see Note 1). During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company cancelled 125 warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at $1.50 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, 67 warrants were exercised as a cashless exercise for a net 34 shares of the Company's common stock. NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Litigation The nature and scope of the Company's business operations bring it into regular contact with the general public, a variety of businesses and government agencies. These activities inherently subject the Company to potential litigation, which are defended in the normal course of business. At September 30, 2003, there were various claims and disputes incidental to the business. The Company believes that the disposition of all such claims and disputes, individually or in the aggregate, should not have a material adverse affect upon the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 11 HOME SOLUTIONS OF AMERICA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (Dollars and Shares in Thousands, Except Per Share Data) NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, continued On or about August 1, 2002, National Union Fire Insurance commenced an adversary proceeding against us entitled National Union Fire Ins. Co. v. QHI Stephens Contractors, Inc., EIF Holdings, Inc., P.W. Stephens Contracts, Inc., P.W. Stephens Contractors, Inc. (CA), P.W. Stephens Services, Inc., P.W. Stephens Residential, Inc., American Temporary Sanitation, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The Company believes its costs for this proceeding will be covered under an indemnification agreement with Spruce MacIntyre Holding Corp. ("Spruce") and in no case will be more than $150. On or about October 3, 2002, in the Superior Criminal Court of Los Angeles County, California a misdemeanor claim was filed against the Company and two employees alleging that certain events violated state and local regulations. The Company settled these claims for $30 due November 15, 2003. Pursuant to an indemnification agreement between the Company and Spruce MacIntyre Holding Corp. ("Spruce"), the Company settled claims brought by CIT Group/Equipment Financing, Inc. and Ackstar Insurance Company, both filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. The CIT settlement agreement requires Spruce to make certain payments to the plaintiffs. In the event that Spruce fails to make the remaining settlement payments, the plaintiffs could seek satisfaction of their $713 consent judgment against the Company, in which case the Company would have to seek indemnification from Spruce. At this time, Spruce owes a payment of $40 to CIT, which the Company has been put on notice as not having been received. If this payment is not paid by November 21, 2003, the plaintiff will seek their consent judgment against the Company. In September 2003, Missouri State Bank and Trust commenced and adversary proceeding against us entitled Missouri State Bank and Trust, a banking corporation v. PW Stephens Contractors, Inc., PW Stephens, Inc., and Mary Ennis in the Circuit Court for St. Louis County, State of Missouri. The plaintiff seeks approximately $58 plus interest and attorneys fees. The Company believes the indemnification agreement between the Company and Spruce applies to this proceeding and is pursuing that indemnification. The Company has accrued $96 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements related to the above proceedings. Based on management's analysis, the Company believes that this amount will be sufficient to cover any potential losses that may occur. Indemnities and Guarantees During the normal course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These indemnities include certain agreements with the Company's officers, under which the Company may be required to indemnify such person for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship. The duration of these indemnities and guarantees varies and, in certain cases, is indefinite. The majority of these indemnities and guarantees do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated to make significant payments for these obligations and no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. 12 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation. Overview Home Solutions of America, Inc. ("we," "us," "Home Solutions," or the "Company") is a Delaware corporation that was incorporated in 1998. Our growth strategy, developed in 2002, is to become a leading provider of specialty residential services that protect the homeowner's single largest investment - their home. We seek a dominant market position through the acquisition of strategic, specialized, profitable and well-managed residential service companies and through the above average internal growth of these operations. Home Solutions will provide services such as cleaning and fabric protection, restoration services, and residential renovation sales. Growth Strategy Home Solutions seeks to acquire companies or internally generate projects that will focus on providing specialty residential services to homeowners. Effective November 1, 2002, we closed our first acquisition as part of this strategy, acquiring PW Stephens, Inc. ("PWS"), a provider of indoor air contaminate removal services for homeowners in California. In July 2003 we acquired Central Texas Residential Services, Inc. and Fiber-Seal Systems, L.P. We expect to continue our aggressive growth strategy with additional acquisitions. The following is a list of the targeted services that we are pursuing: Cleaning and Fabric Protection: We will provide fabric protection services to protect furniture, carpet and draperies from stains and daily wear and tear. This niche market is primarily targeted at above-average income homeowners with an average ticket of approximately $400 or more. We will provide our customers with an annual fabric protection service agreement that will allow them to have on-site spill clean up during the life of the agreement. In addition, using well-tested methods of cleaning carpet, we will offer maintenance and emergency response services to our customer base to repair carpet damaged by common stains, pet dander, bacteria and dust. This procedure will extend the life of the homeowners' carpets and make the carpet look its finest. Furthermore, air duct cleaning is another under-developed market the Company will approach. Particulate (organic and inorganic) material within a home's heating and air conditioning systems and the transfer air ducts can cause allergic reactions and generally indicate poor air quality. Furthermore, the conditions of these systems, high moisture content and heat are often the breeding ground for many types of mold. It is expected that a portion of our cleaning operations will generate additional opportunities across our other business segments. Restoration Services: As part of Home Solutions' specialty residential services strategy, we will provide highly trained technicians to respond to fire, water and weather-related emergencies to inspect structural members and contents damaged by water, to determine the likelihood or extent of mold growth, and to provide immediate cleaning, drying, moving, storage, and deodorization, among other services. Indoor air contamination, including contamination from mold, asbestos and lead paint, is a growing concern for the homeowner. With increased media attention regarding the health threat of mold, fewer insurance options, and property transfers at risk, current market conditions have created significant demand for mold inspections, certifications and remediation services. These services consist of property and system inspections, surface and air testing, project design, microbial removal, light interior demolition, repair and specialized cleaning work. Home inspections and testing can range from $300 to several thousand dollars. Customer opportunities are developed through a regional sales force as well as through referrals by real estate firms, insurance adjusters, mortgage companies, attorneys and nationally branded retailers. As most cases of mold are associated with excess moisture, we believe that response to this type of event-related damage will provide significant additional revenue opportunities. The cost and time requirements of these projects can vary dramatically from case-to-case. It is expected that a portion of our fire/water damage restoration operations will generate additional opportunities across our other business segments. 13 Residential Renovation Sales: Home Solutions seeks out exceptional home buying opportunities by marketing to homeowners in need of quick closings on the sale of their home. In addition, the foreclosure market provides substantial opportunities for Home Solutions to purchase its inventory of homes. Moreover, often these homes are in need of a few thousand dollars in repairs which the Company provides through its existing sister companies by providing such services as mold remediation and carpet cleaning or through its approved network of residential service providers. Typically, the inventory of homes turns over in three to four months and results in a gain of approximately five percent to ten percent of the purchase price. Home Solutions has identified several regional operators that are available for acquisition in this industry. Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make estimates, assumptions and judgments that can have a significant effect on our revenues, income (loss) from operations, and net income (loss), as well as on the value of certain assets on our balance sheet. We believe that there are several accounting policies that are critical to an understanding of our historical and future performance as these policies affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, and significant estimates and judgments applied by management. While there are a number of accounting policies, methods and estimates affecting our financial statements, areas that are particularly significant include revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, and goodwill. In addition, please refer to Note 1 to the accompanying financial statements for further discussion of our accounting policies. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized at the time the contract and related services are performed. Stock-Based Compensation The Company uses the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, as amended, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Company accounts for non-employee stock-based compensation under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." At September 30, 2003, the Company had two stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 4 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company accounts for those plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB 25, and related interpretations. The Company has applied the disclosure provisions in SFAS No. 148 in its consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The Company does not anticipate adopting the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the net assets acquired in a business combination. Management reviews, on an annual basis, the carrying value of goodwill in order to determine whether impairment has occurred. Impairment is based on several factors including the Company's projection of future undiscounted operating cash flows. If an impairment of the carrying value were to be indicated by this review, the Company would adjust the carrying value of goodwill to its estimated fair value. 14 Results of Operations (Dollars In Thousands) Comparison of Three Months ended September 30, 2003 to Three Months ended September 30, 2002 Revenue The revenue of $3,583 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 is comprised of revenue from PWS and FSS. The Company had no revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2002. Costs of Sales Costs of sales were $1,734 for the three months ended September 30, 2003. The Company had no cost of sales during the three months ended September 30, 2002. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,658 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $434 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This represents an increase of $1,224 over 2002. This increase is due to the addition of PWS and FSS' administrative costs together with Home Solutions' administrative costs. Other Income (Expense): Interest income decreased from $60 in 2002 to $0 in 2003. This is primarily a result of lower cash balances during 2003. Interest expense was $125 in 2003 compared to $9 in 2002, which is largely due to the debt incurred with the acquisition of PWS and interest on the line of credit and long-term debt at PWS. Other income was $115 in 2002 and $7 in 2003, which represents a gain on extinguishment of debt. Comparison of Nine Months ended September 30, 2003 to Nine Months ended September 30, 2002 Revenue The revenue of $10,565 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 is comprised of revenue from PWS and FSS. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company had no revenue during this period other than revenue earned by PTP, the Company's former wholly-owned subsidiary that was divested in February 2002, which revenue is included in the "Income (loss) from discontinued operations" line item on the consolidated statements of operations. Costs of Sales Costs of sales were $5,518 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company had no cost of sales during this period other than from the Company's divested subsidiary PTP, which is included in the "Income (loss) from discontinued operations" line item on the consolidated statements of operations. 15 Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4,881 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $1,331 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This represents an increase of $3,550 over 2002. This increase is due to the addition of PWS and FSS' administrative costs together with Home Solutions' administrative costs. Other Income (Expense): Interest income decreased from $123 in 2002 to $1 in 2003. This is primarily a result of lower cash balances during the first nine months of 2003. Interest expense was $483 in 2003 compared to $13 in 2002. This is largely due to the debt incurred with the acquisition of PWS and interest on the line of credit and long-term debt at PWS. Other income was $163 in 2003 compared to $1,220 in 2002, which represents a gain on extinguishment of debt. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's existing capital resources as of September 30, 2003, consisted of cash and accounts receivable totaling $2,878, compared to cash and notes receivable of $2,292 as of September 30, 2002. The Company believes that the financing arrangements the Company currently has in place are sufficient throughout the next twelve months to finance its working capital needs. Implementation of the Company's strategic plan of acquiring niche residential services companies will require additional capital, however. The Company has a credit agreement with a financial institution. The credit agreement includes a $733 term loan, a revolving line of credit and an equipment line of credit. The credit agreement is guaranteed by the former stockholder of PWS, secured by substantially all PWS assets and contains a provision that requires PWS to maintain certain financial covenants. The revolving line of credit expired on January 28, 2003, and the institution is not willing to extend the credit facility. The Company is currently negotiating with other financial institutions to refinance this line, the equipment line and the $733 term loan. The balance on the revolving line of credit was $499 at September 30, 2003. The equipment line of credit bears interest at the prime rate plus 1.00% per annum, payable monthly. The terms of the agreement provide for borrowings up to $200. The equipment line of credit expired on January 31, 2003, at which time all outstanding amounts will be repaid over 36 equal monthly installments including principal and interest through February 28, 2006. The balance at September 30, 2003 was $23. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company generated net cash from operating activities of $1,081, including a net loss of $(119). The Company's investing activities used net cash of $(330), primarily due to the purchase of property and equipment and payment of fees for closed and pending acquisitions. The Company's financing activities used net cash of $(800), primarily due to principal payments made on long-term debt and capital leases.

As of September 30, 2003, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective. No significant changes were made in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to September 30, 2003. 17 PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings. The nature and scope of our business operations bring us into regular contact with the general public, a variety of businesses and government agencies. These activities inherently subject us to potential litigation, which we defend in the normal course of business. At September 30, 2003, there were various claims and disputes incidental to the business. The Company believes that the disposition of all such claims and disputes, individually or in the aggregate, should not have a material adverse affect upon our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Pursuant to an indemnification agreement between the Company and Spruce MacIntyre Holding Corp. ("Spruce"), the Company settled claims brought by CIT Group/Equipment Financing, Inc. and Ackstar Insurance Company, both filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. The CIT settlement agreement requires Spruce to make certain payments to the plaintiffs. In the event that Spruce fails to make the remaining settlement payments, the plaintiffs could seek satisfaction of their $713,000 consent judgment against the Company, in which case the Company would have to seek indemnification from Spruce. At this time, Spruce owes a payment of $40,000 to CIT, which the Company has been put on notice as not having been received. If this payment is not paid by November 21, 2003, the plaintiff will seek their consent judgment against the Company. On or about August 1, 2002, National Union Fire Insurance commenced an adversary proceeding against us entitled National Union Fire Ins. Co. v. QHI Stephens Contractors, Inc., EIF Holdings, Inc., P.W. Stephens Contracts, Inc., P.W. Stephens Contractors, Inc. (CA), P.W. Stephens Services, Inc., P.W. Stephens Residential, Inc., American Temporary Sanitation, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The Company believes its costs for this proceeding will be covered under an indemnification agreement with Spruce MacIntyre Holding Corp. ("Spruce") and in no case will be more than $150,000. In September 2003, Missouri State Bank and Trust commenced and adversary proceeding against us entitled Missouri State Bank and Trust, a banking corporation v. PW Stephens Contractors, Inc., PW Stephens, Inc., and Mary Ennis in the Circuit Court for St. Louis County, State of Missouri. The plaintiff seeks approximately $58,000 plus interest and attorneys fees. The Company believes the indemnification agreement between the Company and Spruce applies to this proceeding and is pursuing that indemnification. Item 2. Changes In Securities. The Company issued the following shares of its common stock without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"): 1. In July 2003, the Company issued 300,000 shares of common stock, at a price of $2.00 per share, and a warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of the Company's stock at $2.00 per share, to finance the acquisition of FSS. This warrant is contingent upon FSS meeting certain financial targets. 2. In July 2003, the Company issued 850,000 shares of common stock, at approximately $2.35 per share, to finance the acquisition of CTRS. Of these shares, 600,000 are currently held in escrow contingent upon CTRS meeting certain financial targets. 3. In July 2003, the Company issued approximately 14,000 common shares pursuant to the exercise of outstanding warrant agreements at prices between $2.86 and $3.23 . The above issuances were unregistered, as the Company was relying on the exemptions from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, and Regulation D promulgated thereunder, on the basis that such transactions did not involve public offerings of securities. 18 Item 5. Other Information. On September 16, 2003, the Company's Board of Directors re-appointed Frank J. Fradella, the Company's Chairman of the Board and former Chief Executive Officer, as the Company's Chief Executive Officer. Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K.
