PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
History
American Capital Holdings, Inc.("the Company") originated through a series of
transactions and restructurings from US Amateur Sports Company, one of ten
wholly-owned subsidiaries of eCom eCom.com ("eCom"), an internet-based e-
commerce company with businesses ranging from sports memorabilia and equipment
to data compression technology. eCom eCom.com trades on the OTC/Bulletin Board
under the symbol 'ECEC.'
eCom incorporated in the State of Florida on June 14, 1994 as US Amateur
Sports, Inc., but on December 17, 1998, eCom's directors voted to change the
name from US Amateur Sports, Inc. to eCom eCom.com,Inc. in the belief that the
proposed name more accurately reflected the nature of the core business--
electronic commerce. At a Special Meeting of Shareholders held on January 25,
1999, the shareholders approved an amendment to Articles of Incorporation of US
Amateur Sports Company in order to adopt the new name. At that time, a current
report on Form 8-K was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
the name change became effective on January 27, 1999.
Throughout these transactions and restructurings, and as the market's
infatuation with dot-coms began to wane, eCom began to lose market
capitalization. From the historical high share price of $21.50 in April 1999,
shares saw a rapid decline to a low of $.01 in February 2003. eCom concluded
that it did not have the financial resources necessary to develop all ten of
its business units collectively, so in an effort to preserve and restore
shareholder value, eCom decided to spin off the ten subsidiaries into
independent companies. The rationale behind this move was that each
independent company would be better suited to obtain their own funding, and to
develop and execute their distinct business plans. eCom would then be able to
develop and streamline its business plan as well. This belief was based in
part on eCom's experience with potential business partners who sought
involvement with only one operating segment of eCom's multi-faceted business.
On December 1, 2003, eCom's Board of Directors approved the spin-off, and USA
SportsNet, Inc. emerged as an independent company, and subsequently changed its
name to American Capital Holdings, Inc.("the Company"), in anticipation of
making a certain acquisition. After the spin-off, the Company was presented
with an opportunity to acquire certain assets of a company then known as
American Capital Holdings, Inc., now known and referred to as ACHI. On January
12, 2004, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with ACHI
whereby the Company agreed to acquire certain assets of ACHI in return for 95%
of the total stock ownership of the Company. In order to accomplish this
transaction, the Company effected a 20-to-1 reverse stock split, which reduced
its outstanding shares to 2,497,756 shares, and agreed to issue ACHI 49,995,112
shares. ACHI agreed to accept the issuance of 13,561,804 at closing, and
assigned the right to receive these shares to its principle, Barnard A.
Richmond, who is now the President of the Company. The remaining 36,393,308
shares were reserved for issuance by the Company in connection with future
acquisitions and financing.
4
AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
The Spin Off. On December 1, 2003, the Board of Directors of eCom approved the
spin-off of the Company. They voted to issue to the shareholders of eCom one
share of the Company for every one share of eCom owned as of the record date of
January 5, 2004. Fractional shares are to be purchased by the Company. No
payment will be required of the eCom shareholders.
Pursuant to Staff Legal Bulletin No. 4 issued September 16, 1997, the SEC has
addressed the Division of Corporation Finance's views regarding whether the
registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 applies to
spin-offs. The Division has taken the view that the subsidiary does not have
to register a spin-off under the Securities Act when it meets certain
requirements.
1. The parent company's shareholders do not provide consideration for the
spun-off shares;
2. The spin-off is pro-rata to the parent company's shareholders;
3. The parent company provides adequate information about the spin-off and
the subsidiary to its shareholders and to the trading markets;
4. The parent company has a valid business purpose for the spin-off; and
5. If the parent company spins-off "restricted securities," it has held
those securities for at least two years.
The Company believes that the spin-off of ACH shares to the shareholders of
eCom meets the above requirements and does not have to register the spin-off
company under the Securities Act. As a result, the common shares to be issued
pursuant to the spin-off company may be issued without restriction except for
affiliates of eCom.
Assets Acquired from American Capital Holdings, Inc. The assets acquired from
ACHI consist primarily of approximately $10.8 million of investment interests
in ten developing companies (described below), approximately $5.3 million of
restricted securities, approximately $233,000 of marketable securities,
approximately $100,000 in cash, and proprietary investment programs known as
Energy Tax Incentive Preferred Securities ("ETIPS")and Guaranteed Principal
Insured Convertible Securities ("GPICS") which ACHI had developed See the
American Capital Holdings balance sheet included in the Financial Statements
section of this report.
Acquisition of Spaulding. On December 30, 2003, prior to the Company's
acquisition from ACHI, ACHI entered into a letter agreement with Spaulding
Ventures, LLC, pursuant to which ACHI agreed to acquire all of Spaulding's
assets in return for 2,093,351 shares of ACHI common stock, plus warrants to
purchase a total of 209,335 additional shares of ACHI common stock at a
purchase price of $6.00 per share. As part of its acquisition from ACHI of the
assets ACHI acquired from Spaulding, the Company has agreed to replace the
shares and warrants issued by ACHI with shares and warrants of the Company. In
order to facilitate the distribution of these securities by Spaulding to its
shareholders, the Company intends file a Registration Statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission registering the distribution to Spaulding's
shareholders of both the acquisition shares and the shares to be issued upon
exercise of the warrants. American Capital has closed out the operations of
Spaulding Ventures.
5
AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
Assets Acquired from Spaulding. The assets acquired by ACHI from Spaulding,
and subsequently acquired by the Company from ACHI, consist primarily of equity
ownership positions in ten developing companies. The companies included; Smart
Pill Holding Corp., Brilliant Roadways, Inc., @Visory, LLC., eSmokes, Inc.,
Efficien, Inc., IS Direct Agency, Inc., Solid Imaging, Ltd., Century Aerospace
Corporation., Traffic Engine, Inc. and Metroflex, Inc. (See Financial
Statement Footnote E)
Activity Since May 31, 2004. Since May 31, 2004, the Company's plan of
operation has changed significantly. The Company is currently focused on
providing provide balance sheet funding options for unfunded government and
private sector pension plan liability. For a current description of the
Company's plan of operation, see "Description of Business" in the Company's
Amended and Restated Registration Statement on Form 10SB, as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on January 11, 2005.
Employees. The Company currently has seven employees, none of which are full
time employees, since they all also provide services to affiliated companies.
RISK FACTORS
The risk factors discussed below could cause our actual results to differ
materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. See
"Forward-Looking Statements." Although we have attempted to list
comprehensively these important factors, we caution you that other factors may
in the future prove to be important in affecting our results of operations. New
factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all
of these factors, nor can we assess the impact of each such factor on the
business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may
cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-
looking statement.
The risks described below set forth what we believe to be the most material
risks associated with the purchase of our common stock. Before you invest in
our common stock, you should carefully consider these risk factors, as well as
the other information contained in this prospectus.
LACK OF OPERATING HISTORY. To date, we have been participating exclusively in
activities associated with the start-up of the Company, including structuring
the Company, acquiring assets, negotiating the acquisition of the insurance
subsidiaries needed to sell our products, obtaining the required licenses for
our intended insurance subsidiaries, and formulating our marketing strategies.
We have not yet commenced operations, and thusly have had no significant
revenues since inception. Until our pending acquisitions of Universe Life and
Cosmopolitan Life are completed, and until they are capitalized sufficiently to
obtain the insurance licenses needed to underwrite our products, we will use
the services of third-party insurance carriers in connection with any sales of
our products, which will reduce our net revenues. We have not yet realized
revenues from sale of our products, and have incurred a net loss of
$(4,638,264) since inception, of which $(3,023,199)are asset write-downs.
6
AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
We expect our acquisition of Cosmopolitan Life to be completed by May 31, 2005,
and some of the proceeds of this offering are designated for additional
expansion capitalization of those subsidiaries. We intend to begin sales of
our products within 60 days, regardless of the status of this offering, but do
not expect significant net revenues until after our acquisitions Cosmopolitan
Life is complete.
SPECULATIVE NATURE OF THE COMPANY'S PROPOSED OPERATIONS. The success of our
proposed plan of operation will depend primarily on our ability to sell the
proprietary products we have created. There can be no assurance that we will
be successful in these efforts.
WE WILL FACE INTENSE COMPETITION. We are and will continue to be only one
participant in the business of selling life insurance backed financial
products. Although we have applied for a patent on our product addressing
Statement 45, we will face competition from companies who may offer a similar
product that have greater financial resources, broader arrays of products,
higher ratings and stronger financial performance, which may impair our ability
to retain existing customers, attract new customers and maintain our
profitability and financial strength. We operate in a highly competitive
industry. Many of our competitors are substantially larger and enjoy
substantially greater financial resources, broader and more diversified product
lines and more widespread agency relationships. Our products can be expected to
face competition with products sold by other insurance companies, financial
intermediaries and other institutions based on a number of factors, including
premium rates, policy terms and conditions, service provided to distribution
channels and policyholders, ratings by rating agencies, reputation and
commission structures.
THERE ARE NUMEROUS CONFLICTS OF INTEREST THAT MAY ARISE BETWEEN AMERICAN
CAPITAL HOLDINGS AND ITS OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS. Because some of our directors
are in the business of providing services to the insurance industry, they could
encounter conflicts of interest from time to time between the interests of the
Company and the interests of their clients. Douglas Sizemore provides
consulting services to various insurance companies. Norman E. Taplin is an
attorney specializing in insurance regulatory matters. Michael Camilleri owns
an actuarial firm which provides services to various insurance entities.
Resulting conflicts of interest will be resolved through exercise of such
judgment as is consistent with the fiduciary duties of management to the
Company.
NO PUBLIC MARKET CURRENTLY EXISTS. Although we intend to apply for listing of
our Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange, there is currently no public
market for the Company's common stock. There can be no assurance, however,
that a market will in fact develop, or that a shareholder ever will be able to
sell his shares without considerable delay. If a market should develop, the
price may be highly volatile. Factors such as those discussed in this "Risk
Factors" section may have a significant impact upon the market price of the
Company's stock.
7
AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
WE WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL. We have not yet begun sales of our
products, and will therefore require additional capital to sustain us until
sales begin and we are able to receive revenues from those sales. We may also
require additional capital in the future to sustain growth and achieve
favorable ratings. The required capital may not be available when needed or
may be available only on unfavorable terms. Our long-term strategic capital
requirements will depend on many factors including the accumulated statutory
earnings of our life subsidiary and the relationship between the statutory
capital and surplus of our life subsidiary and (i) the rate of growth in sales
of our products; and (ii) the levels of credit risk and/or interest rate risk
in our invested assets. To support long-term capital requirements, we may need
to increase or maintain the statutory capital and surplus of our life
subsidiary through additional financings, which could include debt, equity,
financial reinsurance and/or other surplus relief transactions. Such
financings, if available at all, may be available only on terms that are not
favorable to us. In the case of additional equity offerings, dilution to our
shareholders could result, and/or such securities may have rights, preferences
and privileges that are senior to those of our common stock. In the case of
debt offerings or placements, the holders of the debt will have rights
preferences and privileges that are senior to those of our common stock. If we
cannot maintain adequate capital, we may be required to limit growth, and such
action could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
CHANGES IN STATE AND FEDERAL REGULATION MAY AFFECT OUR PROFITABILITY. We are
subject to regulation under applicable insurance statutes, including insurance
holding company statutes, in the various states in which our current and
intended life subsidiaries write insurance. Insurance regulation is intended to
provide safeguards for policyholders rather than to protect shareholders of
insurance companies or their holding companies. Regulators oversee matters
relating to trade practices, policy forms, claims practices, guaranty funds,
types and amounts of investments, reserve adequacy, insurer solvency, minimum
amounts of capital and surplus, transactions with related parties, changes in
control and payment of dividends.
State insurance regulators and the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners, or NAIC, continually re-examine existing laws and regulations,
and may impose changes in the future. Our current and intended life
subsidiaries are subject to the NAIC's risk-based capital requirements which
are intended to be used by insurance regulators as an early warning tool to
identify deteriorating or weakly capitalized insurance companies for the
purpose of initiating regulatory action. Our current and intended life
subsidiaries also may be required, under solvency or guaranty laws of most
states in which they do business, to pay assessments up to certain prescribed
limits to fund policyholder losses or liabilities of insolvent insurance
companies. In addition, federal legislation and administrative policies in
several areas, including pension regulation, age and sex discrimination,
financial services regulation, securities regulation and federal taxation, can
significantly affect the insurance business. As increased scrutiny has been
placed upon the insurance regulatory framework, a number of state legislatures
have considered or enacted legislative proposals that alter, and in many cases
increase, state authority to regulate insurance companies and holding company
8
AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
systems. The regulatory framework at the state and federal level applicable to
our insurance products is continuously evolving. The changing regulatory
framework could affect the design of such products and our ability to sell
certain products. Any changes in these laws and regulations could materially
and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
OUR COMMON STOCK IS CURRENTLY CLASSIFIED AS "PENNY STOCK" AND IS NOT A SUITABLE
INVESTMENT FOR ALL INVESTORS. Our common stock is a penny stock and is not a
suitable investment for all investors. Generally, a penny stock is a security
that (i) is priced under five dollars, (ii) is not traded on a national stock
exchange or on NASDAQ (as opposed to the Over the Counter Bulletin Board or the
"pink sheets"), and (iii) is issued by a company that has less than $5 million
in net tangible assets and has been in business less than three years.
Because our common stock is not yet publicly traded, and we have less than
$5,000,000 of net tangible assets, our common stock is currently classified as
"penny stock." While we intend to apply for listing on the American Stock
Exchange, there can be no assurance that we will be successful. If our common
stock does not become listed on the American Stock Exchange, or on another
exchange or the NASDAQ, or if our common stock does not trade at or above $5.00
per share, or if we do not maintain at least $5,000,000 of net tangible assets,
our common stock will continue to be classified as a penny stock. Penny stocks
are subject to Securities and Exchange Commission rules that impose special
sales practice requirements upon broker-dealers that sell such securities to
persons other than established customers or accredited investors.
Consequently, the rule may affect the ability of purchasers of our common stock
to buy or sell in any market that may develop. In addition, the Securities and
Exchange Commission has adopted a number of rules to regulate "penny stocks".
These rules may further affect the ability of owners of our common stock to
sell their shares in any market that may develop for them. Potential investors
should be aware that, according to the Securities and Exchange Commission
Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years
from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:
* control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that
are often related to the promoter or issuer;
* manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales
and false and misleading press releases;
* "boiler room" practices involving high pressure sales tactics and
unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons;
* excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling
broker-dealers; and
* the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers
after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the
inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.

AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
We advise you to consult with your investment, tax and other professional
financial advisors prior to purchasing our stock. No independent rating agency
has reviewed our financial condition to determine whether the stock is a
suitable investment for any purchaser. The stock may not be a suitable
investment for you based on your ability to withstand a loss of your investment
or other aspects of your financial situation, including your income, net worth,
financial needs, investment risk profile, return objectives, investment
experience and other factors. Prior to purchasing any stock, you should
consider your investment allocation with respect to the amount of your
contemplated investment in our stock in relation to your other investment
holdings and the diversity of those holdings.
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.
The Company does not own any real property. The Company leases its
headquarters, consisting of approximately 1.022 square feet of office and
warehouse space located at 100 Village Square Crossings, Suite 202, Palm Beach
Gardens, Florida. The lease is for a term of one year, at a rental of $2,687
per month including sales tax.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company is not a party to any legal proceedings, except for an Involuntary
Bankruptcy Petition filed by the Company, as one of three (3) petitioning
creditors, against eCom that is currently pending in the Federal District Court
in Broward County, Florida. American Capital Holdings, Inc. is a creditor of
eCom and the spin-offs of eCom, and is initiating the bankruptcy proceedings as
means to reorganize eCom and the spin-offs of eCom due to failed or failing
businesses, and lost shareholder value. In 1999, eCom reached market
capitalization of over $250 million. Since 1999, market capitalization has hit
record lows of approximately $120 thousand, and currently ranges between $500
thousand and $1 million. The bankruptcy filing will allow the Company to
reorganize and/or divest their interest in order to pursue profitable
strategies as a means of restoring lost shareholder value.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
There were no matters submitted to a vote by the security holders during the
fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2004.
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK. There is currently no trading market for the
Company's Common Stock and there can be no assurance that any trading market
10
AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
will ever develop or, if such a market does develop, that it will continue.
The Company intends to file a Registration Statement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission to register for resale certain shares previously issued,
and to register additional shares for sale in order to raise additional
capital. Upon effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Company intends
to have its common stock listed for trading on the American Stock Exchange.
If, for any reason, the Company does not meet the qualifications for listing on
a major stock exchange, the Company's securities may be traded in the over-the-
counter ("OTC") market. The OTC market differs from national and regional stock
exchanges in that it (1) is not sited in a single location but operates through
communication of bids, offers and confirmations between broker-dealers and (2)
securities admitted to quotation are offered by one or more broker-dealers
rather than the "specialist" common to stock exchanges.
SECURITY HOLDERS. The Company has approximately 5,500 shareholders. The
Company has 1,621,209 shares subject to options, at an exercise price of $.01
per share.
DIVIDENDS. There have been no cash dividends declared or paid since the
Company was formed, and no dividends are contemplated to be paid in the
foreseeable future.
RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES. In February 2004, the Company issued
13,561,804 shares of its common stock to American Capital Holdings, Inc. in
connection with the Company's acquisition of certain assets from that company
(See "Description of Business - Acquisition of American Capital Holdings").
Inasmuch as American Capital Holdings had access to comprehensive information
about the Company, the shares were issued in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act. A legend was placed on the certificates stating that the
securities were not registered under the Securities Act and setting forth
appropriate restrictions on their transfer or sale.
ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATION.
Our primary business is insurance and related financial products. In addition
to traditional offerings such as life insurance, health insurance, and
annuities, we will offer financial strategies which utilize insurance as a part
of their structure. American Capital Holdings, Inc. owns the patent and the
trademarks for five proprietary products:
GPICS(tm) -- Guaranteed Principle Insured Convertible Securities
ETIPS(tm) -- Energy Tax Incentive Preferred Securities
ETICS(tm) -- Equipment Tax Incentive Convertible Securities
GPACS(tm) -- Guaranteed Pension Accounting Contract Solutions
GPACS(tm)-- Government Pension Accounting Contract Solutions
11
AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
We intend to use the insurance products of our subsidiaries as part of a plan
to reduce currently unfunded government and private sector pension plan
liability, addressing the needs of governmental and private sector businesses
regarding unfunded pension liabilities and other post-employment benefit
("OPEB") liabilities. By purchasing whole and term life insurance products for
a pool of employees, of which the employer is beneficiary, and utilizing the
tax benefits of mandatory participation in a tax-qualified retirement plan, an
employer can realize numerous financial benefits, as described in greater
detail below. We intend to collect premiums and commissions on the insurance
products sold as a part of the structuring, and also collect a consulting fee
for the product itself. Until our pending acquisitions of Universe Life and
Cosmopolitan Life are completed, and they are capitalized sufficiently to
obtain the insurance licenses needed to underwrite our products, we will use
the services of third-party insurance carriers in connection with any sales of
our products.
Our GPACS(TM) products, which refers to both the Guaranteed Pension Accounting
Contract Solutions product and the Government Pension Accounting Contract
Solutions product, relate to a business method of adjusting the balance sheet
of a business or governmental organization, and particularly to a system for
organizing the unfunded obligations of the organization so that the liability
on the balance sheet is offset by an asset. The product also provides a
systematic investing capability to enhance the profitability of the
organization via investment income, and the improved treatment of tax
obligations via qualified plans which exempt OPEB income from FICA tax. The
restructuring of the balance sheet in such a manner can generate favorable
financial implications such as improved borrowing scenarios, reduction in the
cost of insurance coverage, and increases in the value of outstanding or newly-
issued bonds.
American Capital Holdings, Inc. plans to utilize the existing sales and
marketing divisions of both IS Direct Agency, Inc. and Cosmopolitan Life
Insurance Company to target the municipalities and school boards in the states
in which the subsidiaries are licensed to sell our financial products.
Our GPICS(TM), ETIPS(TM) and ETICS(TM) products are investment structures
designed to maximize the benefit of energy and equipment tax incentives, in
order to facilitate investment in energy-related and other business
enterprises. An essential feature of these products is a guarantee of the
principal invested, as a result of the structuring of the investment. When
and if these products are utilized, when applicable, they will require separate
SEC registration statements and/or insurance product approvals in the states in
which the products are utilized. The sale of these products generates
consulting revenue from the strategic planning provided by the Company.
Our plan of operation includes the underwriting of the insurance aspects of our
products through our subsidiaries. Pending approvals of our above described
proposed acquisitions of Universe Life and Cosmopolitan Life, we will use third
party insurance carriers. However, upon receiving the approvals, which are
expected in due course, we will retain as much premium and commission money as
possible within our subsidiaries. We expect to be able to support operating
expenses with operating revenues beginning in our fourth quarter.
12
AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
IS Direct Agency, Inc.
American Capital Holdings, Inc. purchased IS Direct Agency ("IS Direct") for
800,000 shares of the common stock of American Capital Holdings. The
acquisition was completed May 20, 2004. Included in this acquisition are the
assets listed below:
IS Direct Term Quick Website IS Direct Agency Name
Insurance Licenses Software
Business Process Methods Trademarks
Customers Prospective Customers
Vendor Relationships Insurance Carrier Relationships
Broker Relationships
IS Direct is an insurance agency which currently sells primarily term and whole
life insurance products. However, upon the completion of our proposed
acquisition of Universe Life, a life, health, and annuities carrier, the scope
of products available for sale by IS Direct is expected to broaden. In
addition to placing the insurance components of our financial products, IS
Direct will also sell term life products, annuities, and other traditional
insurance products. We expect most of the insurance products sold by IS Direct
will eventually be underwritten by Universe Life.
Universe Life
Universe Life is a life insurance company which we expect to use to underwrite
the insurance policies required by our GPACS products. We have an agreement to
purchase Universe Life, which is planned as another wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company, pending regulatory approval of the change in control by the
Insurance Commissioner of the State of Idaho. The agreement stipulates a
purchase price of $100,000 in exchange for 100% ownership. Universe Life will
be acquired through receivership with no existing operations, but the process
for reinstatement is in progress and should be completed by August 31, 2005.
Universe Life is a life, health and annuities insurance carrier, which is
currently licensed to operate in twenty-three (23) states. Universe Life will
be initiating the application process to become licensed in all remaining
states, and expects to obtain the necessary licenses to operate in all fifty
(50) states in the near future. We expect Universe Life to be domiciled in the
State of South Carolina, with its principal offices in Charleston. We
anticipate merging Universe and Cosmopolitan in the near future as means of
jointly utilizing each company's capital surplus resources and/or licenses.
Our application for approval of our acquisition of Universe Life has been filed
with the Insurance Commissioner of the State of Idaho. We expect to receive
regulatory approval for our purchase of Universe Life by August 31, 2005.
Cosmopolitan Life
On October 30, 2004, we entered into an agreement to purchase one-hundred
(100%) percent of the voting shares of Cosmopolitan Life for $500,000 and a
surplus note in the amount of $250,000. We expect to close our acquisition of
Cosmopolitan Life by May 31, 2005, upon regulatory approval by the Arkansas
13
AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
Department of Insurance. Upon closing, we intend to contribute additional
capital to Cosmopolitan Life, from the amount raised pursuant to this offering,
in order to provide capital for expansion and additional licensing.
Cosmopolitan Life is a stipulated premium insurer chartered in 1931 in the
State of Arkansas. A "stipulated premium insurer" is one issuing policies or
certificates promising money or other benefits to a policyholder upon his or
her disability or, upon his or her decease, to his or her legal representatives
or beneficiaries designated by him or her, which money or benefit is derived
from stipulated premiums collected in advance from those policyholders and from
interest and other accumulations. Since 1998, Cosmopolitan Life has offered
both direct and re-insurance coverage related to health and dental care plans,
with a specialty in providing stop-loss coverage for self-funded employer
plans.
Until 1998, Cosmopolitan Life was engaged exclusively in providing burial/final
expense insurance, and was operated as a small stipulated premium carrier in
association with the funeral home business. In 1998, Cosmopolitan Life was
acquired by Stephen E. Whitwell and Matt Lile, who implemented plans to grow
the company. In 1998 a dental insurance product was file-approved and marketing
commenced. Cosmopolitan Life also became involved in providing specific stop-
loss coverage for self-funded employer plans for which there was a retro-
session agreement. In 2001, Cosmopolitan Life introduced a new product,
Employers Choice Health Plan, referred to as ECHP. Recently, most of
Cosmopolitan Life's revenues have been realized from re-insurance assumed,
while its dental product has been a small but profitable segment for the
company. Cosmopolitan Life sees great opportunity for each product to expand
and to have great growth potential with the added authority by way of either
obtaining Certificate of Authority in additional jurisdictions or by
affiliating with an issuing carrier with authority in other jurisdictions to
enter into a quota share agreement.

Independent Auditors' Report
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
American Capital Holdings, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of American Capital
Holdings, Inc. as of May 31, 2004 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the twelve
months ending May 31, 2003 and 2004. 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 standards established by the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (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 consolidated financial statements referred to in the first
paragraph present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position of American Capital Holdings, Inc. as of May 31, 2004 and the results
of its consolidated operations and cash flows for the period from June 1, 2003
through May 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally

AMERICAN CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
TWELVE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2004
NOTE A - NATURE OF OPERATIONS
American Capital Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State
of Florida on January 27, 1999 as U S Amateur Sports Company, a wholly owned
subsidiary of eCom eCom.com, Inc.("eCom") which trades on the OTC/Bulletin
Board under the symbol 'ECEC.' On March 19, 2003, the Company changed its name
to USA SportsNet Company, and on December 12, 2003 changed its name to American
Capital Holdings, Inc. in connection with its spin off by eCom and its
acquisition of certain assets of a company formerly known as American Capital
Holdings, Inc. (now known as ACHI, Inc.) The Company's main office is located
at 100 Village Square Crossing, Suite 202, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410,
and the telephone number is (561) 207-6395.
IS Direct Agency, Inc. ("ISDA"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company, was
incorporated in the State of Florida on May 20, 2004. On May 21, 2004 ISDA
acquired the assets of IS Direct Agency, Inc., a New York Corporation. ISDA
provides internet based term life insurance quotes.
While a wholly owned subsidiary of eCom, the Company developed an e-commerce
Internet infrastructure. This product provided an affordable, user-friendly
technological platform and professional resources to facilitate web business
development. It also operated an on-line business as a test model using
Company developed e-commerce concepts to sell sports products.
The Spin-Off. The Company was one of ten wholly owned subsidiaries of eCom,
with varying business plans. In recent years, eCom concluded that it did not
have the financial resources necessary to develop all of its ten business units
collectively. eCom decided to spin off its subsidiaries into independent
companies in the belief that independent companies, each with a distinct
business, would be better able to obtain necessary funding and develop their
business plans. This belief was based in part on eCom's experience with
potential business partners which sought involvement with only one of eCom's
subsidiaries, rather than involvement with the multi-faceted eCom.
On December 1, 2003, the Board of Directors of eCom approved the spin-off of
the Company. They voted to issue to the shareholders of eCom one share of the
Company for every one share of eCom owned as of the record date of January 5,
2004. Fractional shares will be purchased by the Company. No payment was
required of the eCom shareholders.
Acquisition from American Capital Holdings. After the spin off of the Company
was completed, the Company was presented with an opportunity to acquire certain
assets of American Capital Holdings, Inc. (now known as, and referred to
hereafter as ACHI). On January 12, 2004, the Company entered into an Asset
Purchase Agreement with ACHI whereby the Company acquired certain assets, and
assume certain liabilities of ACHI in return for the issuance of common stock of
the Company in an amount equal to 84.1% of the total ownership of the Company.
In order to accomplish this transaction, the Company effected a 20 to 1 reverse
stock split, which reduced its outstanding stock to 2,497,756 shares, and agreed

to issue to ACHI 49,955,112 shares. ACHI agreed to accept the issuance of
13,561,804 shares at closing, and assigned its right to receive the 13,561,804
shares to its principle, Barney A. Richmond, now the President of the Company.
The remaining 36,393,308 shares were reserved for issuance by the Company in
connection with future acquisitions and financings. The Company then changed
its name to American Capital Holdings, Inc., and ACHI changed its name to ACHI,
Inc. Of the 36,393,308 shares reserved for future issuance, 2,162,099 shares
have now been issued to the shareholders of Spaulding Ventures, LLC, in
replacement of shares of ACHI to be issued to Spaulding in connection with a
prior acquisition of assets by ACHI from Spaulding.
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation, Use of Estimates
The Company maintains its accounts on the accrual basis of accounting. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue and dividends from investments are recognized at the time the
investment dividends are declared payable by the underlying investment.
Capital gains and losses are recorded on the date of sale of the investment.
Cash
Cash consists of deposits in banks and other financial institutions having
original maturities of less than ninety days.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
It is the policy of management to review the outstanding accounts receivable
at year end, as well as the bad debt write-offs experienced in the past, and
establish an allowance for doubtful accounts for uncollectible amounts.
Depreciation
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over the
estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method.
See accompanying independent accountants' audit report.

TWELVE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2004
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Amortization
The accounting for a recognized intangible asset acquired after June 30, 2001
is based on its useful life to the Company. If an intangible asset has a
finite life, but the precise length of that life is not known, that intangible
asset shall be amortized over management's best estimate of its useful life.
An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized. The
useful life to an entity is the period over which the asset is expected to
contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of that entity.
Investments
Investments are stated at the lower of cost and market value.
NOTE C - NOTES RECEIVABLE
Notes Receivable at May 31, 2004 consist of the following:
An 8% non-collateralized note that matures in December 2004,
Interest is payable quarterly. Included in the balance is
$11,963 of accrued interest receivable. $ 111,963
A 4% non-collateralized note due on demand. Included in
the balance is $1,989 of accrued interest receivable. 26,989
----------
Total Notes Receivable $ 138,952
==========
Management has made a determination that all of the notes receivable are
collectable and therefore, has not established an allowance for doubtful
accounts.
NOTE D - LOANS RECEIVABLE RELATED PARTIES
The three loans receivable from related corporate entities are non-
collateralized, non-interest bearing and are due on demand.
The loans due as of May 31, 2004 are as follows:

NOTE N - INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)
The Company does not believe that the realization of the related net
deferred tax asset meets the criteria required by generally accepted
accounting principles and, accordingly, the deferred income tax asset arising
from such loss carry forward has been fully reserved.
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB Statement No.
109, Accounting for Income Taxes (FASB 109). Under FASB 109, income taxes are
provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial
statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related to
certain income and expenses recognized in different periods for financial and
income tax reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent
the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be
taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.
Deferred taxes also are recognized for operating losses and tax credits that
are available to offset future taxable income and income taxes, respectively.
A valuation allowance is provided if it is more likely than not that some or
all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
NOTE O - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
To facilitate the purchase of the assets of ACHI, the Company recorded a one
for twenty reverse split on the Effective Date of the currently outstanding
common stock, while maintaining the conversion and exercise prices of the
Senior Notes, the Secured Notes, the Subordinated Notes and the related
warrants. All prior period share and per-share amounts have been restated to
account for the reverse split. Any fractional shares remaining after the
reverse split will be paid out in cash to the shareholder on the Effective
Date.
Warrants were granted to Promissory Noteholders with detachable warrants.
Management has determined that the fair value of each warrant is $0.01.
The computation of diluted loss per share before extraordinary item for the
year ended May 31, 2004 does not include shares from potentially dilutive
securities as the assumption of conversion or exercise of these would have an
anti-dilutive effect on loss per share before extraordinary items. In
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, diluted loss per
share from extraordinary item is calculated using the same number of potential
common shares as used in the computation of loss per share before extraordinary
items.
NOTE P - DEFERRED TAX ASSET
Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between the
financial reporting and income tax basis of the Company's assets and

principles and, accordingly, the deferred income tax asset arising from such
loss carry forward has been fully reserved.

working capital and inventory purchased by ACHI, subsequently purchased by the

NOTE R - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations with
an effective date for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2002. The statement addresses financial accounting and
reporting for obligations related with the retirement of tangible long-lived
assets and the costs associated with asset retirement. The statement requires
he recognition of retirement obligations which will, therefore, generally
increase liabilities; retirement costs will be added to the carrying value of
long-lived assets, therefore, assets will be increased; and depreciation and
accretion expense will be higher in the later years of an assets life than in
earlier years. The Company adopted SFAS No. 143 at January 1, 2002. The
adoption of SFAS No. 143 had no impact on the Company's operating results or
financial positions.
See accompanying independent accountants' audit report.

TWELVE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2004
NOTE R - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)
The FASB also issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal
of Long-Lived Assets and is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years beginning January 1, 2002. This statement addresses financial
accounting and reporting for the impairment or the disposal of long-lived
asset. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of a long-
lived group exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flow expected to result
from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group. Long-lived assets
should be tested at least annually or whenever changes in circumstances
indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. This statement
does not apply to goodwill and intangible assets that are not amortized. The
Company adapted SFAS No. 144 in the first quarter of 2002. The adoption of SFAS
No. 144 had no impact on the Company's operating results or financial position.
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of the FASB Statements
No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical
Corrections"("SFAS No. 145"). SFAS No. 145 eliminates the requirement to
classify gains and losses from the extinguishment of indebtedness as
extraordinary, requires certain lease modifications to be treated the same as a
sale-leaseback transaction, and makes other non-substantive technical
corrections to existing pronouncements. SFAS No. 145 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after May 15, 2002. SFAS No. 145 was adopted on June 1, 2003
and did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.
The FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments
with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity" and is effective for
financial instruments entered into after May 31, 2003. This Statement
establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures in its
statement of financial position certain financial instruments with
characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer
classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability because
that financial instrument embodies an obligation of the issuer. The Company
has adopted SFAS No. 150 and the adoption has had no impact on the Company's
operating results or financial position.
Goodwill and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001 will continue to
be amortized and tested for impairment in accordance with pre- SFAS No. 142
requirements until adoption of SFAS No. 142. Under the provision of SFAS
No.142, intangible assets with definite useful lives will be amortized to their
estimated residual values over those estimated useful lives in proportion to
the economic benefits consumed. Such intangible assets remain subject to the
impairment provisions of SFAS No. 121. Intangible assets with indefinite useful
lives will be tested for impairment annually in lieu of being amortized. The
impact of adopting SFAS Nos. 141 and 142 will not cause a material change in
the Company's consolidated financial statements as of the date of this report.

ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
