FORM 10-KSB PART I
Item 1. Description of Business.
History. Temporary Financial Services, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Washington on October 11, 2000. We formed the company to engage in the business of financing accounts receivable for temporary labor businesses. We also invest in temporary labor businesses and provide services to temporary labor businesses. We know a number of operators in the temporary labor industry that have experience and operational expertise that are interested in starting up new operations or expanding existing operations. We offer our accounts receivable financing, investing, and business services capabilities to these customers. We are currently focused on sales to potential customers already known to our management. As our business grows, we may expand our focus to include other prospects in the temporary labor industry. We also review and consider other business opportunities as they are presented to us.
As of December 31, 2001, we have loans outstanding in the aggregate amount of $406,081 to a total of four temporary labor businesses. In early January, we began offering our common stock in an initial public offering, and we expect to close the offering sometime in March, 2001. Until our public offering closes, we are not actively soliciting new borrowers.
Our investing activities relating to temporary labor businesses will be conducted through our wholly owned subsidiary, Temps Unlimited, Incorporated, which was incorporated under the laws of the State of Washington on October 31, 2000. Since inception, Temps Unlimited, Inc. has invested in two temporary labor businesses. A total of $12,000 was invested in Temps Unlimited of Minnesota, LLC doing business as Staffing on Demand, and $11,250 was invested in Temps Unlimited of Nebraska, LLC doing business as ValuStaff. In each instance, we received an 18% equity stake in the business. Both Staffing on Demand and Valustaff have established operations but have not yet reached consistent breakeven results. For financial statement purposes, we report the investments on the equity method. At December 31, 2001, net investments after deducting our share of losses were $582 for Staffing on Demand, and $1,123 for Valustaff.
Our business plan also calls for review of other business opportunities as they are presented to us for evaluation. In January, 2002, we reviewed and invested in Genesis Financial, Inc., a newly formed entity that will acquire seller financed real estate receivables at a discount. After holding the real estate receivables for a short time to provide some loan seasoning, Genesis will sell the contracts at a premium over its cost. Genesis will generate revenue from interest on the real estate receivable contracts while they are being held for seasoning, and from the premium received when the real estate receivable contracts are sold. TFS invested $200,350 and 50,000 shares of TFS Common Stock in exchange for 800,000 shares of Genesis common stock constituting approximately 42% of the total shares currently outstanding, and also loaned Genesis $200,000 on a convertible note. Subsequently, TFS has agreed to provide a secured warehousing line of credit with a $2,000,000 credit limit to Genesis for the acquisition of real estate contract receivables. It is expected that the Company will start to fund Genesis real estate receivables contract purchases in the first quarter of 2002.
Temporary Labor Industry Overview. TFS will provide financing to temporary labor offices engaged in the staffing services industry. In recent years, the staffing services industry has experienced significant growth in response to the changing work environment. According to published industry sources, the total staffing services market in the United States had revenues of approximately $124.8 billion in 1999 and 139.3 billion in 2000 (the Staffing Industry Report, Vol. XII, No. 12, June 26, 2001).
The staffing industry is evolving. Traditionally, employers used staffing services to manage personnel costs and meet fluctuating staffing requirements. More recently, however, employers see

ZEQ.=1,SEQ=2,EFW="2074630",CP="TEMPORARY FINANCIAL SERVICES INC",DN="1",CHK=320699,FOLIO='10-KSB Page 2',FILE='DISK033:[02SEA9.02SEA1139]DE1139A.;5',USER='PKIEU',CD='28-MAR-2002;23:52'
temporary staffing as a way to reduce administrative overhead by outsourcing human resources operations that are not part of the employers' core business competencies. The use of temporary workers typically shifts employment costs and risks, such as workers' compensation and unemployment insurance and the possible adverse effects of changing employment regulations, to temporary staffing companies, which can allocate those costs and risks over a larger pool of employees and customers. In addition, through the use of temporary employees, businesses avoid the inconvenience and expense of hiring and firing regular employees. The American Staffing Association has estimated that more than 81% of all U.S. businesses utilize staffing services. See Staffing Facts from the American Staffing Association, (www.staffingtoday.net/aboutasa/staffingfacts.shtml).
The U.S. remains the largest and most developed staffing services market in the world. Since 1997, the U.S. staffing market grew at an annual rate of 11.4%. According to the Staffing Industry Report, U.S. staffing industry revenue for the industrial sector grew to an estimated $17.8 billion in 2000. Due to the economic slowdown that began in late 2000, the industrial sector of the temporary placement industry is expected to decline to $15.7 billion in 2001, and then recover to $18.1 in 2002. See Staffing Industry Report, Vol. XII, No. 12, June 26, 2001. Our proposed lending business will focus on loans to temporary staffing firms in the industrial sector.
The industrial sector is believed to be highly fragmented. While there are a number of large national and international temporary labor businesses, most have not yet aggressively expanded into the industrial sector of the temporary labor business. One company that has aggressively pursued the industrial market is Labor Ready. With year 2000 revenues of $976 million, Labor Ready has an estimated 6% market share. We believe that Labor Ready is one of the largest competitors in this market segment. The remaining market is serviced by a small number national firms, many regional, multi-location firms, and a large number of local operations with fewer than five offices. We believe that many of these local operations will require capital for financing operations and growth, and we intend to focus our marketing efforts on this type of borrower.
Market Opportunity. The factors that have caused the rapid growth in the temporary labor industry give rise to several market opportunities that we are pursuing. Since inception, we have been refining our business plan to address these perceived market opportunities. Our business will have three primary activities: lending money, investing in businesses, and providing services.
We believe that there are many individuals and small operators that have experience in the temporary labor industry that are currently looking to open their own business or expand the business they already have. Our management has extensive experience in growing a large international temporary labor business, and in the process many contacts have been established with entrepreneurs that have expressed interest in owning and operating temporary labor businesses. While the barriers to entry in the temporary labor business are low, a single location still requires a level of start-up capital and financial wherewithal that exceeds the capacity of many entrepreneurs. By serving as a source of capital, both for accounts receivable financing and seed investing, we will be offering a chance to these persons and it is our belief that our willingness to work with this group will build a loyal and capable customer base.
Working with new or recently formed businesses increases the risks of our business plan because we will not have the benefit of evaluating our customers on the basis of historical information. We intend to offset this risk by focusing on individuals with whom our management has prior dealings, and who have demonstrated success in other similar endeavors in a management capacity. We believe individuals that demonstrate the ability to manage a successful temporary labor business will have a better than average likelihood of success as a business owner in a similar field.
Lending Money. We will provide accounts receivable financing for businesses engaged in the temporary labor business. We are new and relatively inexperienced at lending to businesses against
10-KSB Page 3
ZEQ.=2,SEQ=3,EFW="2074630",CP="TEMPORARY FINANCIAL SERVICES INC",DN="1",CHK=983736,FOLIO='10-KSB Page 3',FILE='DISK033:[02SEA9.02SEA1139]DE1139A.;5',USER='PKIEU',CD='28-MAR-2002;23:52'
accounts receivable balances. In order to protect our capital base and minimize the potential for losses from bad loans, we will apply a multi-step evaluation and monitoring process to all of our borrowers.
At the time a prospective customer applies for a loan, we will perform a detailed review of a number of lending criteria. We will evaluate the capitalization of the borrower, we will consider the adequacy of the borrowing base, and we will review credit information on the borrower and the principal owners of the borrower. We will also include documentation in the loan file on the operator's experience, character and references. When multiple borrowers are being evaluated for a limited amount of loan capital, we will prefer those operators known to management over those with whom we have not had prior dealings, all other criteria being equal.
Our definition of the borrowing base refers to the unencumbered assets owned by the borrower that support the decision to advance credit. Most temporary labor businesses do not have a significant investment in fixed assets, since most of the business is in the nature of services provided. As a result, the borrowing base will primarily consist of the accounts receivable that the temporary labor business borrower has from its customers. Our focus on evaluation of the borrowing base will therefore consist primarily of a review of the accounts receivable aging and credit information on the significant accounts of the temporary labor business borrower. The borrowing base will be considered adequate when the evaluation indicates that the collateral is sufficient to support the loan being offered.
Once the data for evaluating lending criteria is accumulated, we will submit the loan to the loan committee for consideration and when appropriate, approval. Once a loan is approved, we will prepare a loan documentation package that will include all of the loan documents necessary for the loan in question. This package will generally include the Loan Agreement, a Security Agreement, Continuing Personal Guarantees, and if applicable, a Pledge Agreement. We will request personal guarantees and pledge of ownership in the borrower prior to lending against accounts receivable when the risk assessment indicates that personal guarantees are warranted.
As collateral for the loans we make, we will require a first position security interest in all of the assets of the borrower. We will also follow the appropriate procedures to perfect our security interests in assets under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, or other applicable secured transactions laws. In general, a perfected security interest provides protection to the first-to-perfect creditor against other creditors of the borrower. When we are the creditor in the first position with a perfected security interest on all of a borrower's assets, we will have a right to apply all of those assets toward our debt (including late fees, default interest charges, and collection cost), before payment to other creditors, with only limited exceptions (such as tax liens). This will increase the likelihood that we will be able to recover all, or at least some, of the amounts due from the debtor.
After a loan is made to a particular borrower, we will perform ongoing monitoring of the borrower's business to assure that early notice of any concerns is received. The nature of the accounts receivable financing will require each borrower to provide weekly sales information to serve as the basis for future advances. This information will be monitored for inconsistent results, or other aberrations that indicate potential problems. Additionally, we will require independent accountants to perform accounting services to most of our borrowers, and we will monitor financial health through the accounting cycle.
In the event one of our borrowers experiences financial difficulties and is unable to repay some or all of the amounts we have loaned, we will take action to protect our collateral position and obtain repayment through appropriate means. In instances where a distressed borrower appears to have an otherwise viable business, we may consider an equity stake offset against the delinquent balance. In the right circumstances, we believe that taking an equity stake in lieu of foreclosing on a security interest may be the best way to maximize value to our shareholders while allowing the business to continue as a customer.

ZEQ.=3,SEQ=4,EFW="2074630",CP="TEMPORARY FINANCIAL SERVICES INC",DN="1",CHK=412046,FOLIO='10-KSB Page 4',FILE='DISK033:[02SEA9.02SEA1139]DE1139A.;5',USER='PKIEU',CD='28-MAR-2002;23:52'
We expect to derive operating revenues from our lending activities through loan fees and financing charges. Each loan made will require that the borrower pay a weekly administrative fee. The amount of the loan fee will depend on the credit worthiness of the borrower, and an overall assessment of the factors evaluated during the loan approval process.
Investing in Businesses. We also intend to invest in businesses from time-to-time. Our business plan for investing in other businesses is focused on generating returns through growth in the value of the businesses we invest in and through near term returns from profits percentage allocations negotiated at the time the investments are made. Eventually, additional investment returns may be generated from sale or other disposition of the business. Exit opportunities for our investments will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis as the opportunities arise.
At this time, we have invested in two temporary labor businesses. We own 18% each of Temps Unlimited of Minnesota, LLC and Temps Unlimited of Nebraska, LLC. We paid $12,000 for our 18% interest in Staffing on Demand, and $11,250 for our 18% interest in Valustaff.
Temps Unlimited of Minnesota, LLC, doing business as Staffing on Demand ("Staffing on Demand"), was formed on March 14, 2001, as a Washington limited liability company, and operates out of a 1,728 square foot building in St. Cloud, Minnesota. In addition to our investment in Staffing on Demand, we also provide loans and accounting services to the business. As of December 31, 2001, Staffing on Demand had an outstanding accounts receivable financing line of $24,497. Staffing on Demand commenced operations on June 15, 2001, and as of December 31, 2001 had generated $202,239 in revenues, $266,003 in operating expenses, and a net loss of $63,664.
Temps Unlimited of Nebraska, LLC, doing business as ValuStaff ("ValuStaff"), was formed on March 14, 2001, as a Washington limited liability company, and operates out of a 1500 square foot facility in Omaha, Nebraska. We also provide loans and accounting services to ValuStaff. As of December 31, 2001, ValuStaff had an outstanding accounts receivable financing line of $86,375. ValuStaff opened for business on May 7, 2001, and as of June 30, 2001 had generated $474,297 in revenues against $530,557 in expenses, for a net loss of $56,260.
We continue to receive additional requests for business investment, but at this time, we are deferring further investment evaluations until after our initial public offering is completed. We will consider investments in businesses as opportunities arise.
Providing Services. We may also provide accounting and management advisory services to the businesses that we invest in. We are currently providing accounting services to two temporary labor businesses, and receive monthly fees for these services. We may also expand our services offerings to include management advisory services, marketing assistance, and other services as our customer base builds. Additional services will be priced on an as used basis. Our services offerings will continue to develop following completion of this offering. The service sector of our business is not expected to be a high priority in the coming months.
Competition. We believe that the businesses of lending to, investing in, and providing services are highly fragmented with a few large national or international players and many small regional or local companies. We expect that we will have to aggressively compete for our customers, and that high levels of competition will serve to keep our pricing for products and services down.
In the lending business, there are many asset based lenders and accounts receivable factors that will offer similar products and services to our customers. We do not expect our competition for loans to come from traditional lenders such as banks and other financial institutions since our target customer base is not likely to qualify for traditional sources of lending. The use of accounts receivable financing and factoring is well known, widespread, and readily available. A search on the World Wide Web under the key words "accounts receivable financing" yields a very large number of firms (too numerous to
10-KSB Page 5
ZEQ.=4,SEQ=5,EFW="2074630",CP="TEMPORARY FINANCIAL SERVICES INC",DN="1",CHK=502481,FOLIO='10-KSB Page 5',FILE='DISK033:[02SEA9.02SEA1139]DE1139A.;5',USER='PKIEU',CD='28-MAR-2002;23:52'
list) that are skilled at lending to businesses, including temporary labor businesses. Many of these firms are better capitalized, more experienced, and have more personnel resources than we have.
We are not aware of any specific competitors that lend primarily to temporary labor businesses, but many diversified firms will make loans of this nature. We do not believe that we will experience a shortage of customers interested in our loan offerings, but our success in providing loans to customers will depend on our ability to price our offerings fairly, to competently service the accounts that we do win, and to manage our loan portfolio to yield a positive return. The large number of competing firms will make this task difficult.
The business of investing in businesses faces a situation similar to the business of lending. The number of firms that make investment capital available to small start-up businesses, including temporary labor businesses, is too numerous to mention. The investment firms run the gamut from individual "angel" investor to very large and professionally managed investment banking concerns. Many of the investment firms are better capitalized and more experienced than we are. As a result, when seeking investment capital, our target customers will be faced with a number of financing options. It is likely that this will result in negotiation on the terms of the investment and could impact the return on our investment if we win the business.
Our services offerings will also be faced with high levels of competition. Accountants and bookkeepers, consultants, and management advisory firms will compete for the right to service our customers. As a result, pricing of our services may be held down by competitive pressures and this could reduce the rate of return an investor in this offering might otherwise expect.
Target Customers. We believe that our customer base will come from small temporary labor businesses that provide unskilled and semi skilled labor to light industrial and commercial establishments and other businesses in a variety of fields.
Methods of Marketing. We will initially rely on the contacts of our Management to generate customers for our business activities. John Coghlan previously worked in the temporary labor industry and has extensive contacts with small temporary labor business operators and entrepreneurs. We believe that many of these small operators may be interested in our financing program, possible investment capital, and services.
In addition, we are known in the business community to be interested in investing in and assisting business development efforts for early growth stage businesses. As a result, we regularly receive contacts on new businesses seeking investment funding and we have a number o f business opportunities waiting for review. We will continue to rely on word of mouth to attract other business opportunities.
Our marketing efforts will be geared to match our availability of funds. As additional capital is required, we will undertake further fundraising and bank borrowing efforts. If we are unable to obtain the additional capital that we need, we will adjust our marketing efforts accordingly. If funds are not available, our business could be adversely affected. When needed, we will seek additional capital through common equity offerings, debt placement, preferred stock offerings, and/or other forms of capital infusion.
Governmental Regulation. Our proposed lines of business will be subject to government regulation in a number of areas.
Temporary staffing firms are the legal employers of their temporary workers. To the extent that the Company invests in controlling interests of temporary staffing businesses, we may be governed by laws regulating the employer/employee relationship, such as tax withholding or reporting, social security or retirement, anti-discrimination and workers' compensation.

We may also offer services to our loan and investment customers. These services may entail the filing of payroll tax returns and other government mandated reports in accordance applicable regulations.
Employees. As of December 31, 2001, the Company has three full time employees, an office manager and two clerical/bookkeeping positions.
Part 1, Item 2. Description of Property.
Facilities. Effective June 1, 2001, we entered into a three year lease for 1,425 square feet of office space in a professional office building in Spokane, Washington. We believe that this space will be adequate to meet our needs for at least the next three years. With the move to larger offices, we also acquired office furniture and equipment.
Part 1, Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
There are no legal proceedings threatened or pending against the Company.
Part 1, Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
No matters were submitted to a vote of the security holders during the quarter ended December 31, 2001. It is anticipated that the Company will hold its annual shareholder meeting sometime in May, 2002.
Part II, Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters.
As of December 31, 2001, there has been no market for the Company's securities. The Company has been conducting its initial public offering and expects to close the offering in March, 2002. Once the initial public offering is closed, the Company's underwriter, Public Securities, Inc. will request a listing symbol and the right to provide quotations from the OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB) operated by NASDAQ. If OTCBB approves the listing request, a market for the Company's securities may develop in the future.
The Company has engaged in two offerings of unregistered securities, both of which were completed prior to December 31, 2000. The details of these unregistered offerings are included in the Prospectus that is part of the Company's Form SB-2 Registration Statement, SEC File Number 333-60326.
The Company expects to close its initial public offering at the end of March, 2002. To date, all proceeds from the offering are held in an impound account and no proceeds from the offering have been applied by the company. Additional disclosure on uses of proceeds will follow in the next periodic report filed by the Company.

FORM 10-KSB PART II
Part II, Item 6. Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
Temporary Financial Services, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Temps Unlimited, Inc. are engaged in the business of lending to, investing in, and providing services to businesses. We generate revenues from lending activities and fee based services. Our investing activities will yield returns through current distributions of earnings from the businesses we invest in and through realization of value appreciation when the investment asset is sold or transferred. After payment of operating expenses, we anticipate that profits and surplus cash flows will be reinvested in the growth of the Company for the foreseeable future.
Results of Operations
The Company was organized in October, 2000, and began operations in the second quarter of 2001. Prior to April 1, 2001, our efforts were focused on initial fundraising activities and the development of our business plan and operational procedures.
As of December 31, 2001, we had loans outstanding of $406,081, with four temporary labor businesses. We also hold minority investments in two temporary labor businesses through Temps Unlimited, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary corporation. Investments of $12,000 for 18% of Temps Unlimited of Minnesota, LLC (dba Staffing on Demand), and of $11,250 for 18% of Temps unlimited of Nebraska, LLC (dba ValuStaff), were made in the second quarter 2001. We also provide accounting services to Staffing on Demand and Valustaff.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2001, we have generated $56,498 from loan fees, and $14,522 from fee based accounting services, and $12,543 from interest and investment income. Total revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001 were $83,563.
We account for our investments in Staffing on Demand and ValuStaff under the equity method of accounting. Unrealized profits and losses on the investments are recorded as income or loss on the books of Temps Unlimited, Inc. and are then consolidated with the results of Temporary Financial Services, Inc. During the year ended December 31, 2001, we recorded an unrealized loss on investments of $11,418 from our investment in Staffing on Demand, and an unrealized loss of $10,127 from our investment in ValuStaff. Staffing on Demand commenced operations on June 15, 2001, and since its inception has generated $202,339 in total revenues, $266,003 in expenses, and has incurred total losses of $63,664. ValuStaff opened for business on May 7, 2001 and generated $474,297 in total revenues, $530,557 in total expenses, and total losses of $56,260. As the cold winter months end in Minnesota and Nebraska, we expect the businesses of Staffing on Demand and ValuStaff to pick up. Breakeven or better results for both operations are expected in 2002.
On a consolidated basis, including the unrealized losses on investments, Temporary Financial Systems, Inc. incurred total expenses of $199,610, yielding a pre-tax net loss of $116,047 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001.
We believe that the losses incurred to date are consistent with the stage of development of the company and are in line with the business plan. We will continue to monitor progress throughout 2002 and will adjust our business plan to address any operational issues as they arise.
Liquidity and Capital Resources .
At December 31, 2001, we have loans to temporary labor businesses outstanding in the amount of $406,081. We expect the amount of loaned funds to continue to increase as the borrowers' businesses grow and their borrowing needs increase.

Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2001, amounted to $262,072. These amounts will be used to fund operations during 2002. In March, 2002, the company expects to close its initial public offering to raise additional equity capital between $1,000,000 and $4,000,000. With the near term completion of the public offering, we will have sufficient cash to fund our plan of operations for at least the next twelve months.
Pending use of offering proceeds for loans, investments, or operations, we will place the funds in accessible interest or dividend bearing accounts and will manage our surplus working capital position to provide current earnings.

Temporary Financial Services, Inc. and Subsidiary Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Organization:
The accompanying financial statements are those of Temporary Financial Services, Inc., incorporated in Washington State on October 4, 2000, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Temps Unlimited, Incorporated, which was incorporated in Washington State on October 31, 2000 (collectively referred to herein as the Company). Both companies have established their fiscal year end to be December 31.
The Company had no significant operations from inception through December 31, 2000, and was considered to be a development stage company. In late 2001, the Company evolved from the development stage to the operating stage and is no longer considered to be a development stage company. The Company's operations consist of two segments: financing and other services for the temporary employment services industry and minority ownership of temporary staffing businesses.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All material intercompany accounts and transactions are 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 contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash Cash consists of demand deposits, including interest-bearing accounts, held in three local banks.
Deferred stock offering costs Legal and other fees and costs incurred in connection with the Company's proposed public stock offering have been deferred and are presented as current assets. Such costs, together with any additional costs to be incurred in connection with the offering, will be deducted from the offering proceeds and will reduce additional paid-in capital. If the offering is unsuccessful, offering costs will be charged to expense.
Office furniture and equipment Office furniture and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of seven years.
Revenue recognition The Company generates revenues from loan fees, loan administration fees, and fee based accounting services. The Company recognizes loan fees at the time the loan amounts are advanced to borrowers. Loan administration fees are set at a weekly fixed amount and are recognized as earned at the end of the week to which the loan administration fee applies. Loan advances are typically made on a weekly basis, and the amount of the advance is netted against the applicable loan fees and loan administration fees. Fee based accounting services are typically charged at a monthly fixed rate, and are invoiced as income at the end of the month in which the services are performed.
Allowance for loan losses The Company provides for estimated loan losses on loans receivable at a level which, in management's opinion, is adequate to absorb credit losses on such loans. The amount of the allowance is based on management's evaluation of the collectibility of the loans receivable, including the nature of the loans, adequacy of collateral, credit concentrations, trends in loss
10-KSB Page 16
ZEQ.=1,SEQ=16,EFW="2074630",CP="TEMPORARY FINANCIAL SERVICES INC",DN="1",CHK=498699,FOLIO='10-KSB Page 16',FILE='DISK033:[02SEA9.02SEA1139]DS1139A.;9',USER='LSTARKE',CD='29-MAR-2002;11:37'
experience, specific impaired loans, economic conditions, and other risks inherent in the loans. At December 31, 2001, management determined that no allowance for loan losses was necessary.
Investments in affiliates The Company's minority investments in affiliated limited liability companies that operate temporary labor businesses are reported using the equity method. The Company's share of earnings and losses of the affiliates is reported as income or expense in the period in which the earnings or losses are incurred.
Stock subscriptions receivable Such amounts are classified as current assets at December 31, 2000 as full payment was received on January 2, 2001.
Notes receivable for stock purchase Notes receivable from officers/directors and a consultant in connection with the sale and issuance of common stock was reported as a reduction to stockholders' equity until payment was received in 2001. See note 3.
Income tax The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with its subsidiary. Deferred taxes are provided, when material, on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. There were no material temporary differences for the periods presented. Deferred tax assets, subject to a valuation allowance, are recognized for future benefits of net operating losses being carried forward.
Earnings per share Earnings (loss) per common share has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period presented.
NOTE 2RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
An officer/stockholder provided office space and administrative support to the Company through an informal arrangement at $200 per month through May 31, 2001. Beginning June 1, 2001, the Company provided the officer/stockholder office space and support under an informal arrangement at the rate of $500 per month.
Interest income of $760 in 2001 and $800 in 2000 relating to notes receivable from stock purchases by officers/directors and a consultant, was accrued through December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
During 2001, the Company purchased professional services of an officer/director at a cost of $68,289. As discussed in note 3, the Company had loans receivable from affiliates totaling $110,872 at December 31, 2001.
At December 31, 2001, the Company had a $1,000,000 line of credit with an officer/stockholder (see note 5) on which interest expense of $959 was incurred in 2001.
NOTE 3LOANS RECEIVABLE:
The Company provides short-term financing for temporary staffing businesses, including affiliates. The financing consists of notes receivable that are generally collateralized by the borrower's accounts receivable, all assets of the borrower, and the use of personal guarantees and pledges where appropriate. Lending criteria established to minimize credit risk include, among other things, assessment of the operators capabilities, minimum business capitalization requirements, maintenance of an adequate accounts receivable borrowing base, and a requirement for timely reporting of financial information to demonstrate ongoing compliance with loan covenants. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company incurred no loan losses and there were no impaired loans outstanding at December 31, 2001.
At December 31, 2001, the Company had no outstanding commitments for undisbursed loans.

NOTE 4INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES:
In 2001, the Company, through Temps Unlimited, Incorporated, made minority (18%) investments in two start-up temporary labor dispatch offices. These investees, Temps Unlimited of Minnesota, LLC doing business as Staffing on Demand, and Temps Unlimited of Nebraska, LLC, doing business as ValuStaff, are formed as limited liability companies. These businesses provide unskilled and semi-skilled temporary workers to customer businesses as requested.
NOTE 5LINE OF CREDIT:
At December 31, 2001, the Company had an outstanding balance of $100,959 against a $1,000,000 line-of-credit with an officer/stockholder. The line-of-credit is unsecured and bears interest at 10%. The line-of-credit agreement expires on August 15, 2002 and any outstanding balance is due on that date.
NOTE 6CAPITAL STOCK:
Shares Issued to Officers/Directors and Consultant:
Upon incorporation, the Company entered into stock subscription agreements with three officers/directors and a consultant for a total of 100,000 common shares. Each of the four agreements provided for the sale and issuance of 25,000 shares at $1 per share. The agreements called for an initial payment of $6,250 in cash and an $18,750 note receivable from each of the individuals. The notes receivable, totaling $75,000 at December 31, 2000, were unsecured and bore interest at 6.3%. The notes receivable were reflected as a reduction of stockholders' equity until collected in full in 2001.
Private Placements:
Through December 31, 2001, the Company completed two series of unregistered private placements of common stock. A total of 250,000 shares were subscribed and, for all but 40,000 shares at December 31, 2000, payment had been received in full by December 31, 2000. Subscriptions receivable for the remaining 40,000 shares ($120,000) at December 31, 2000, were collected on January 2, 2001. The gross proceeds, including the subscriptions subsequently collected, for the two private placements totaled $650,000.
Preferred Stock:
Shares of the Company's authorized but unissued preferred stock, if issued, are entitled preference over common shares in distribution of assets upon the Company's liquidation or dissolution. Preferred shares have no stated dividend rate.
Public Stock Offering:
Effective January 9, 2002, the Company initiated an initial public offering of 200,000 to 800,000 shares of its common stock at $5 per share. The Company has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the offering. The offering will terminate on March 31, 2002.
In connection with the offering, the Company has entered into an underwriting agreement with Public Securities of Spokane, Washington on a 200,000 share "best efforts, all or none" basis, with an additional 600,000 shares on a "best efforts" basis. The Company will pay the Underwriter a 10% commission on sales, except for sales to existing stockholders, and a 1% non-accountable expense allowance. The Underwriter will also receive one common stock warrant for each ten shares of stock sold in the public offering. The warrants and underlying shares will be registered and entitle the Underwriter to purchase the stock covered by the warrants at $7 per share any time following

expiration of twelve months after the effective date of the offering and prior to the expiration of 60 months following the effective date.
NOTE 7INCOME TAX:
The Company generated a tax-basis net operating loss of approximately $115,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001, which is available for carryover to offset future taxable income through 2021.
At December 31, 2001, the Company had a $20,000 deferred tax asset relating to the operating loss carryover. The deferred tax asset was fully offset by a valuation allowance because of uncertainties if the Company will generate sufficient future taxable income to realize the tax benefit. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the income tax benefit differed from the $20,000 expected amount because of the impact of recognizing the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
NOTE 8OPERATING LEASES:
In June, 2001, the Company entered into an operating lease of its office premises. Also in 2001, the Company leased certain office equipment under an operating lease agreement. Following are the future commitments under the leases as of December 31, 2001:

Independent Directors .
In registering the Company's shares for its initial public offering, the Securities Administrators of several states required that the Company agree to maintain a minimum of two independent directors of the Company. For this purpose, independent directors are individuals that do not have an employment, significant business, or ownership relationship with the Company. Maintaining at least two independent directors will provide an independent source for evaluating and approving or disapproving transactions that may involve the inside officers and directors. We consider individuals owning less than 5% of the outstanding shares following completion of this offering to be independent provided they are not employees and do not have some other business relationship with us that could affect their independence.
Gregory B. Lipsker , age 51, is an independent Director of the Company. Mr. Lipsker is a practicing attorney in Spokane, Washington. Mr. Lipsker graduated from the Georgetown University Law Center in 1976. Mr. Lipsker's practice emphasizes corporate transactions and securities matters. Since 1993 Mr. Lipsker has been the president and a director of Metaline Mining and Leasing Company, an inactive mining exploration company. From 1993 to 2000 Mr. Lipsker was the president and a director of CimarronGrandview Group, Inc. (now Full Moon Universe, Inc.). Both companies are reporting companies.
C. Eugene Olsen , age 60, accepted a position as an independent Director of the Company in October, 2001. Mr. Olsen has over fifteen years experience in public accounting, with seven years as a partner in the Spokane, Washington office of an international CPA firm. Since 1995, Mr. Olsen has served as Chief Financial Officer for Dellen Wood Products, Inc. in Spokane Washington.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

Transactions with Affiliates and Conflicts of Interest .
In all transactions between the Company and an affiliated party, the transaction will be presented to the Board of Directors and may only be approved if (1) if the transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company than those that can be obtained from unaffiliated third parties and, (2) a majority of the independent directors who do not have an interest in the transaction approve of the action. We will pay for legal counsel to the independent directors if they want to consult with counsel on the matter. We believe that the requirement for approval of affiliated transactions by disinterested independent directors will assure that all activities of the Company are in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.
Through our wholly owned subsidiary, Temps Unlimited, Inc., we intend to invest in temporary labor businesses. We also expect that there may be opportunities to invest in more businesses than we will choose to accept. We may decline an investment because of the timing, other commitments, size, suitability standards, or any number of other sound business reasons. In such circumstances, it is possible that some or all of our officers and directors may choose to make the investment from personal funds. In order to fulfill their fiduciary responsibilities to the Company and our shareholders, each officer and director is aware that he or she must make business opportunities that are consistent with our business plan available to the company first. If we decline to participate, the individual officers and directors may then participate individually. Beyond the obligation to present opportunities to the Company first, there are no restrictions on participation in business opportunities by our officers and directors.
Part III, Item 10. Executive Compensation.
Effective July 1, 2001, Ms. Jesmore receives a salary of $3,000 per month from the Company. Ms. Jesmore currently handles all of the administrative and set-up tasks related to establishing loan accounts, monitoring loan activity, and addressing daily operational matters. Ms. Jesmore receives assistance as needed on business matters from John Coghlan and Brad Herr.
John Coghlan is not currently compensated by the Company for their activities on our behalf. Brad E. Herr, P.S., a professional services corporation solely owned by Brad E. Herr, receives payment for professional services provided to the company as invoiced at the rate of $60 per hour. In the year ended December 31, 2001, Brad E. Herr, P.S. received $68,289 from the Company for services and costs.
At this time, our directors receive no annual compensation or attendance fees for serving as directors. Reasonable directors' fees may be established for attendance at meetings once this offering is competed. The Company does not anticipate payment to officers for serving in that capacity, although corporate officers may also serve and will be compensated as employees when appropriate.
During the year ended December 31, 2001, no executive officer received $100,000 in compensation. The Company does not currently provide any employees with any form of benefits other than cash compensation, normal payroll tax benefits, and health insurance.

Part III, Item 12. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.
Temporary Financial Services, Inc. was formed in October, 2000. Since its inception, we have engaged in a number of transactions with our management in an effort to establish business operations. These transactions may not be considered to have been conducted at arms length, although the disinterested Directors approved the transactions and the terms were considered fair at the time.
The initial capitalization of the company was derived from a private placement of 100,000 shares of common stock sold to officers and directors (the founders' shares) at an offering price of $1.00 per share. In that offering, John Coghlan, Brad Herr, Kristie Jesmore, and Dwight Enget each purchased

25,000 shares in exchange for $6,250 cash and a promissory note for $18,750 payable in three annual installments of $6,250 each. The promissory notes are unsecured obligations of the individual officers and directors bearing interest at 6.3% per annum. Subsequently, on June 26, 2001, Mr. Coghlan purchased the notes from the company and the full value for the founders' shares has now been received by the Company. Brad Herr, Kristie Jesmore and Dwight Enget are now indebted to Mr. Coghlan under the promissory notes. At the same time that we were conducting the offering of founders' shares, we also offered 50,000 shares to unaffiliated investors at $1.00 per share payable in cash at the time of investment. This offering was fully subscribed in November, 2000.
In December, 2000, we offered an additional 200,000 shares of Common Stock at an offering price of $3.00 per share. This offering was fully subscribed on December 31, 2000, and all subscriptions for shares in this private placement were received by January 2, 2001. In this private placement, John Coghlan purchased 55,500 shares, Brad Herr purchased 5,000 shares, and Dwight Enget purchased 20,000 shares. In each case, the full $3.00 per share price was paid by the officers and directors in cash, on the same terms as offered to other investors.
Following incorporation and initial funding of the business, we operated out of offices provided by Mr. Coghlan and reimbursed Mr. Coghlan $200 per month for use of his facilities and office equipment. On June 1, 2001, we rented office space located at 200 N. Mullan, Suite 213, Spokane, Washington and Mr. Coghlan now shares our offices. Mr. Coghlan reimburses the company for his use at the rate of $500 per month. The amounts of rent we paid Mr. Coghlan prior to June 1, 2001, and the amounts of rent we now receive from Mr. Coghlan for his personal use of our facilities, are considered fair value for the facilities provided.
Prior to July 1, 2001, Ms. Kristie Jesmore was employed by the Coghlan Family Corporation and compensated for the services she performed for Coghlan Family Corporation and John Coghlan. From October 1, 2000 through June 30, 2001, Mr. Coghlan and Ms. Jesmore were activlely involved in establishing and developing the business plan for Temporary Financial Services, Inc., but no charges were made to us for the time Ms. Jesmore and Mr. Coghlan spent on company business. Effective July 1, 2001, Ms. Jesmore is now employed by us. If her ongoing work with Coghlan Family Corporation and John Coghlan require that Ms. Jesmore spend time on Mr. Coghlan's personal business, we will be reimbursed for Ms. Jesmore's time by Mr. Coghlan.
Since May 1, 2001, we have been working with Brad E. Herr, P.S., a professional service corporation owned by Brad E. Herr. Mr. Herr is paid on a hourly basis at that rate of $60 per hour for hours actually spent on our business. Mr. Herr is currently working on general business matters including business plan development, loan documentation and loan procedures, and other business matters as requested.
