PART I


ITEM 1. BUSINESS


(a)

Business Development


Biomasse International Inc. (the "Company"), a Florida corporation, was organized on March 19, 1999. The Company has not been involved with any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings. The Company has not had any material reclassification, merger, consolidation, or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets that is not in the ordinary course of business.


(b)

Business of Issuer


The main business goal of Biomasse is to provide to the pulp and paper industry the most practical, economical and efficient way of giving enhanced value to the waste sludge (and other solid residues) generated by their wastewater treatment systems.


We have acquired and improved a waste-to-energy process originally developed by Marc Dufresne (1978) Inc., of Trois-Rivieres, Quebec This process is capable of processing pulp and paper mills waste sludge and wood residues in an efficient and environmentally-friendly way into steam. This innovative process integrates state-of-the-art technologies that combine fuel conditioning, efficient combustion, steam generation and flue gas treatment. The steam generated by this process can be used to generate electrical power or heat.


We believe that the North American pulp and paper industry is facing many challenges caused by an increasingly competitive world market. Pulp and paper plants in Canada are lagging behind their competitors in the U.S.A. and Europe in productivity and in quality of their products. It is generally accepted in the industry that globally, the industry is now in a restructuring phase to reduce its costs of operations and diversify its product line. Production of steam and power from waste sludge and other residues and minimal use of landfill is one of the solutions for the reduction of operating costs in the pulp and paper industry.


As is generally known, the pulp and paper industry produces, through its activities, enormous amounts of waste sludge. Production of pulp and paper generates by-products that exit the mill in waterborne, airborne or solid forms. As mills reduce their emissions of airborne particles by installing stack scrubbers and their waterborne particles and oxygen-consuming solutes by installing clarifiers and secondary treatment systems, more and more of these by-products end up in the solid residue stream. Thus, our research shows that the rising use of secondary treatment facilities is continuously increasing, considerably, the amount of sludge generated by this industry.


We are aware that the sludge is currently being buried, and this practice constitutes a method of disposal that has a major impact on the environment. As is generally known, landfill consumes valuable space, may lead to long-term leaching problems, and wastes the potential value of these residues. Due to the severe regulations covering the burial of these wastes, their disposal has become increasingly costly. New regulations in Quebec, in Canada and in the USA stipulate that landfill sites must be impermeable and that the lixivium, or liquid effluent, must be collected and treated to prevent water contamination and soil/ground water table contamination.


As is generally known, the organic substances found in the sludge tend to decompose once buried, leading to the formation of gases containing a large fraction of methane produced by anaerobic degradation of buried sludge and other organic constituents that substantially contribute to the greenhouse effect. These gases also contain strong smelling compounds that constitute a major source of odor pollution for neighboring populations. We are aware that this pollution, combined with the costs related to the management and the development of landfill sites, as well as the transport costs of sludge, that are bulky with a high water content, have led the pulp and paper mills to consider alternatives to landfill.

Waste sludge contains an important fraction of organic matter that has an attractive energy recovery potential. Our research shows that energy production from organically rich industrial wastes, such as paper mills sludge, is now considered by a majority of industrialized countries as an intrinsic aspect of a responsible care policy. This disposal approach involves several strategic advantages. This approach reduces the volume of residues to be buried by at least 90%. The production of energy using these wastes leads to significant economies in terms of traditional non-renewable fossil fuels, also providing a net reduction of the emission rates of gases believed responsible for the greenhouse effect.


However, pulp and paper mills' conventional combustion systems are either not well- suited or are simply inadequate for sludge combustion. For this reason the combustion of sludge in conventional systems often lead to:

a decrease in the boiler's capability to produce steam with the addition of wet wastes;

an important consumption of auxiliary fuel such as natural gas or oil to maintain boiler output and sufficiently high combustion temperatures due to inconsistency of waste fuel moisture and the high water content in the wastes;

higher maintenance costs due to ash clogging in the boiler grate; and

an increase in particle emissions and slag.


Our state-of-the-art process addresses the shortcomings observed in the currently used methods of energy production from pulp and paper wastes. Additionally, our solution is innovative in that it offers the customer a financing program. Our process can be designed, installed, operated and entirely financed by third parties. Our income is based on the sale of steam and electricity to the plant and/or on a transport charge for removing the sludge from their premises. The main economical and environmental advantages of our process can be summarized as follows:


no investment costs and minimal operation costs for the pulp and paper mill customer;

reduction of more than 90% of solid waste to be buried; extensive reduction of management costs of landfill, sludge transportation and handling costs;

reduction of maintenance costs on inadequate conventional boilers burning sludge;

increase in total efficiency of the existing steam facilities by using available flue gases of existing boilers;

reduction of the total amount of traditional non-renewable fossil fuels used in the plant;

elimination of methane emission of landfill and reduction of the global emission rates of gases responsible of the greenhouse effect;

elimination of problems related to odorous emission of landfills.


Our company offers our process to the pulp and paper mills in a progressive strategic sequence. This sequence first begins with an evaluation of the feasibility and profitability of a Waste-to-energy project for both parties. As a marketing tool, we will provide this evaluation at no cost to mills where we believe the possibility exists for us to introduce our process.


Additionally, in the medium term, we plan to modify and adapt our process to new applications such as power generation from the organic fraction of the municipal solid wastes.


The North American pulp and paper industry is a cornerstone of the American, Canadian and Quebec economies, employing several tens of thousands of workers in regions across North America. There are approximately 379 mills in the U.S. and 121 mills across Canada with 64 in Quebec alone.


Canada's, and particularly Quebec's, pulp and paper industry has always been synonymous with massive exports. Due to market globalization and strong international competition, this industry constantly has to reach new customers and meet new demands. To increase its productivity, diversify its production and improve its environmental performance, the pulp and paper industry in Quebec has proceeded with massive investments over the years. In the pulp and paper sector, capital expenditures reached $6.4 billion between 1987 and 1997, representing 20 % of all manufacturing investments made in Quebec. Between 1989 and 1996, Canadian mills spent $3.7 billion on the biggest environmental upgrade in the industry's history. During the same period, the industry invested $1.0 billion in building up the capacity to recycle recovered paper. Today, 23 mills across Canada are capable of recycling, and 62 mills use recovered paper in whole or in part as a source of fiber.

Technical challenges facing the North American industry are centered on using recycled materials cost-effectively, meeting environmental regulations, and reducing energy and operation costs. Other pressures include the diminishing amount of land available for tree farms and landfill, and a lack of capital for carrying out long-term research and development projects.


As the dynamics of the industry have been changing, the North American pulp and paper industry began facing several challenges. Below are the main threats the North American industry faces today:


Although global consumption of papers is on the increase, this increase has been mainly in foreign markets, particularly in the Far East. This forces North American companies to have to compete for the world market against worldwide paper companies, putting downward pressure on prices and upward pressure on quality and technology.


To be able to be competitive globally, companies have to be present in the potentially large and growing markets. To achieve that, many foreign companies have merged, combining resources and increasing their presence worldwide. This places additional pressure on companies to increase their exposure in these markets and to become more efficient.


As capacity in North America is increasing, prices are likely to drop and companies would have to operate more efficiently to maintain the same level of profitability.


Given the above stated challenges, we believe that in order to compete in today's environment, pulp and paper companies have to satisfy the following four conditions:


1.

Low production costs: The four main elements of production costs that have to be optimized are:


Lower cost of the fiber by increasingly finding close and abundant sources of recycled paper;


Improving the efficiency of the equipment by gradually replacing old machinery with newer ones;


Lower cost of labor by exerting pressure on unions to become more in line with the realities of the international global market; and


Reducing energy and operating costs by increasing the fraction of solid residues (wood and sludge) used for steam and electricity generation and reducing operating costs related to the landfill management.


Our process aims to considerably reduce the residues and landfill management costs, and to recycle these residues in a practical form: steam and power generation at low costs, contributing to reduce the global production costs of the mills.


2.

Market diversification: Since the fastest growth is being found in Asia and to a lesser extent in Europe, it is important that US, Canadian and Quebec companies penetrate these markets effectively. Competing in these markets implies reducing their production costs as described above to price their products in parity with the other global companies;

 

3.

Product diversification: New types of paper have to be developed to meet the increasingly demanding needs of consumers. Companies also have to shift their focus from the declining newsprint paper segment and focus more on writing and printing paper and specialized paper which commands higher profit margins;


4.

Meeting Environmental Regulations: Pulp and paper plants are on the constant lookout for alternatives and less expensive methods to reduce the total amount of traditional non-renewable fossil fuels used in the plant, elimination of methane emission of landfill and reduction of the global emission rates of gases believed responsible for the greenhouse effect, and elimination of problems related to odorous emission of landfills.

The solid waste management and disposal practices by the U.S. Industry was studied in 1992 by the National Council of the Paper Industry for Air and Stream Improvement, Inc., as reported in their Technical Bulletin 641. The total amount of solid wastes generated by the American pulp and paper industry in 1989 alone was estimated in this study to be 12.3 millions dry metric tons. The total amount of sludge generated in the same year was estimated to be 4.2 million dry metric tons. Sludge consists of fibers, organic matter, ash, inert matter and moisture. When the amount of sludge generated is expressed on a dry basis, the moisture content is excluded. For example, a mill that produces 50,000 dry metric tons per year of sludge having 70% moisture content generates 166,667 metric tons per year of humid or wet sludge. In 1989, the amount of sludge being use as landfill or lagooned accounted for approximately 70% of the total, while burning for energy accounted for approximately 21%. This shows a growing trend to energy conversion that almost doubled during the previous ten years. In 1979, the amount of sludge being used as landfill or lagooned accounted for 86% of the total, while burning for energy accounted for 11%. The considerable amount of sludge being carted to landfills every day represents an important amount of fuel for our process.  The overall average total disposal costs for mills using landfill sites constructed since 1985 was $9.80 per cubic yard or $20.84 per wet metric ton, compared to an average for all sites, regardless of age, of $6.40 dollars per cubic yard or $13.61 per wet metric ton. This data represents current total landfill disposal costs consisting of capital plus operating costs. Estimated costs for disposal of solid wastes in new as yet un-constructed landfill sites were reported in this study to be approximately $15 per cubic yard or $31.90 per wet metric ton. Consequently, the 1989 annual total direct costs of sludge used as landfill in the U.S. is estimated to have been more than $146 million for the pulp and paper industry alone. This estimate is based on an average sludge humidity of 72.6%, and an average cost of landfill of $13.61 per wet metric ton. The process offered by Biomasse enables the pulp and paper mills to avoid most of these sludge disposal costs.


 In early 1990, approximately one-half of the industry's landfill sites had less than 6 years capacity remaining. Approximately 80 percent of the landfill sites had less than 20 years capacity remaining. It was estimated back in 1990 that by the end of 1999, the paper industry would require approximately 200 new landfill sites or major expansions on existing sites, with a total additional area of approximately 10,000 acres. This assumed that the amounts of solid waste would remain unchanged by 1999.


The generation and management of solid waste residues by the Canadian pulp and paper mills were studied in 1995 by the Pulp and Paper Research Institute of Canada. Statistics and information presented in this section originate from this study. In 1995, the amount of solid residues generated by the Canadian paper industry was estimated at 7.3 millions of dry metric tons per year. Of this total, 47% was wood and bark used for fuel, 13% was wood and bark not used as fuel, 23% was sludge, 12% was inorganic, and 5% was in a miscellaneous category. Generation of secondary sludge increased by 247% from 1994. Sludge generation rates represents 44% of the total generation rates for solid residues other than wood and bark used as fuel. In 1995, almost half of the total generated sludge was deposited in landfill sites. The real generation of sludge is 5,705,000 metric tons per year, when their respective mean moistures are considered. The following table summarizes the generation rates of solid residues by the Canadian industry, in 1995:

Use of landfill is still a dominant option for solid residues management. Of the waste used as landfill, 82% goes to private sites owned by the paper mills instead of public landfill sites. Land-spreading, composting and recycling account for only a small fraction of the residues. In 1995, approximately one third of the sludge was burned. A small fraction of the sludge, approximately 13%, were land spread or composted, but almost half of the total sludge generated was deposited in landfill sites. Much of the increment in secondary sludge is used as landfill, despite the problems that secondary sludge produces in these sites. Sludge management is considered to be among the most frequent concerns of the pulp and paper industry. Incineration of sludge is confirmed as a major problem in recent study. A lot of mills have chosen the use of landfill as a temporary measure, intending to find better ways to use sludge in the longer term. The amount of sludge available for utilization in Canada was reported by the Pulp and Paper Research Institute of Canada, in its April 1997 report, to be approximately 1,159,000 dry metric tons per year. The amount of wood and bark was approximately 868,000 dry metric tons per year in the same study. The costs of sludge and residues land filling outlined herein was estimated with the help of local Canadian pulp and paper associations. The estimated costs include handling and transportation, and management of the landfill site. They exclude any investment or social costs. These costs are estimated to range between $3.41 and $23.86 per wet metric ton, with a mean of approximately $8.18 per wet metric ton. Consequently, the annual (1995) total direct costs of wood residues and sludge land filling in Canada can be estimated to have been more than $37 million for the pulp and paper industry alone. The amount of solid residues generated by the Quebec industry was estimated in 1998 by the Environmental Ministry of Quebec to have been 3.1 millions of wet metric tons. Of this total, the total amount of generated sludge is 1,800,000 wet metric tons (58%) with 690,000 wet metric tons that were buried (38%). In Quebec, the 1998 estimated total direct costs of wood residues and sludge land filling is estimated to have been more than $8.2 million.


Much work has been done with land application of pulp and paper mill sludge in the last 15 years. In volume 96 of Pulp and Paper Canada, Pickell and Wunderlich studied the practices and future options of sludge disposals. As mentioned in this study, the sludge has been successfully used as a replacement for manure in agricultural applications, as well as for land reclamation projects. There seems to be no available data about the costs of these applications. The lowest cost method of spreading the sludge appears to be by using dry applications that eliminate the need to re-wet the sludge before spreading. Recent studies published by Pulp & Paper Canada, 1995, show that the projected costs for this approach could be reduced to $38.17 per wet metric ton to apply approximately 36,000 wet tons onto 400 hectares. Finally, composting has been examined but has not gained a lot of support as the process can require a considerable capital investment for equipment and buildings. Odor can also be a problem and production costs can be as high as $20.45 per ton, and the market for compost is limited.


Our process


The basis of our process is the transformation of solid organic wastes into steam. Steam is the most convenient source of energy that is used in pulp and paper plants for heating, drying or for any other energy-intensive process. Our operation combines the service of transporting waste sludge and wood residues brought from the plant to the process, solid fuel preparation, minimizes solid fuels storage, efficient combustion, steam production and flue gases treatment. The available flue gases from new and existing boilers are used to thermally dry solid fuels and/or preheat combustion air. Our process offers the possibility to operate in mixed combustion to produce steam. The process is flexible and easily adapts itself to the individual conditions of each pulp and paper mill. The main objective of the flexibility and adaptability features of the process is to maximize the use of components and utilities that are already available on site, and that can be incorporated into our process. This approach aims to minimize the investment and operational costs, benefiting both parties. For example, these components and utilities can be


stocking yards;

exhaust chimney;

main-power to operate our system;

treatment and processing of the process outputs:

filtered exhaust gases; o wet scrubber liquid output in the mill's waste water treatment basin;

solid boiler outputs such as ash and clay for land filling;

electricity to operate our process;


6



operating control room;

condensation processing and pumping; and

existing buildings to install our equipment.


Our process was externally evaluated by known experts of the chemical engineering department of the Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal (Engineering School of the Montreal University) and their findings were published by Guy and Legros in June 1997 in the University Journal. This scientific evaluation of our process validated the principles of its technology.


The product that we sell is steam and/or a combination of steam and electricity, if the project integrates a cogeneration system. We do not intend to sell the production system that generates the end product. We plan merely to sell the output: steam and electricity. Our plan is to bill our customers based on the volume of steam generated. We will also charge a transport fee for the sludge admitted to the process. We will not charge for the installation, operation and maintenance of the system. The pricing is set on the basis of 1,000 lbs of steam produced and the amount of produced and delivered power (kWh). And will be dependent on the each mill's guarantee to buy a minimum amount of steam (and kWh) from us, and provide a minimum constant mass flow of waste sludge and wood residues, if available. The price of the steam is also based on the confirmed investment, installation, operating and maintenance costs, financing costs of the project to us, as well as the number of components and utilities provided to us by the pulp and paper mill. Due to union regulations, we will be unable to have our employees operate the system. As a result, the mill will provide the personnel to operate the system. We will train the operator(s) as part of our service, but the mill will be completely responsible for paying the salary and benefits of the operator(s). However, these expenses will be charged back to us and are calculated and incorporated into our pricing model. We will remain the owner of the process and contractually sell the steam over a period of time, selected by us to achieve a return on our investment with a reasonable built in profit. The pulp and paper mill can capitalize its gains at the end of the contract.


Our responsibilities can be summarized as follows:

design of the process taking into account available components

manufacturing and subcontracting of process components

installation and start-up of the process

operation and maintenance of the process which can be done in collaboration with or by the customer's operator, supervised by our representative


The customer's responsibilities can be summarized as follows:

salary of the provided operator

environment conformity permits for operation

components and utilities that can be provided advantageously, by the plant


The primary target market for our process is the North American pulp and paper industry. Once established in this industry, we intend to offer our process to the wood processing industries (saw mills, furniture manufacturers, etc.). In the longer term, we plan to adapt our process to generate power from another problematic solid residue: the organic fraction of municipal solid wastes. After realizing a few projects in North America, we expect to also expand our market to other continents if opportunities are offered. There are approximately 500 pulp and paper mills in North America. Based on available studies, these mills generate more than 19.6 million of dry metric tons of solid residues per year. The real generation of wastewater treatment sludge can be estimated to be 21 million of wet metric tons per year. As discussed earlier, wet residue is sludge with a high moisture content making it heavier and more difficult to dispose of in an environmentally safe fashion. The total direct costs of sludge sent to landfill sites in North America can be estimated to more than $200 million annually. A large fraction of the North American pulp and paper mills do not currently attribute any enhanced value to this residue that we have shown can be efficiently transformed into valuable steam and electricity and contribute significantly to reductions in their production costs. We also intend to capitalize on the fact that pulp and paper companies often operate several plants in the same state or geographic region. Once our processes has been installed in one plant and its benefits become clear, the installation of the process in other plants of the same paper company can reasonably be expected.

We believe that after the industry sees the success of our initial installations that we will be able to obtain more contracts. Our first objective is to identify the most profitable "sludge & residues-to-energy" projects in North America. To enable us to target the projects with the most profit potential, we have contracted with the engineering firm, McBurney of Norcross, Georgia to assist us in analyzing the needs of potential clients. Using publicly available data, we are able to survey information on likely candidates and perform preliminary determinations of projects that would be the most profitable for us. To do so, we have developed a questionnaire soliciting information from most likely potential customers on their solid waste management and current disposal practices. Typical required information are: flow rate generation of sludge and other wood residues, solid wastes disposal costs, age of currently used landfill and availability of landfill sites, residues combustion problems, landfill site management problems, de-watering problems, utility costs, fuel costs, current costs of steam production by the mill, sludge characteristics, etc.


Thereupon, we intend to follow up by establishing direct contact with management and the engineering department of those pulp and paper mills that have been deemed most suitable for us.  We intend to establish a direct contact with the management and the engineering of the most suitable pulp and paper mills. We will offer our expertise and services to evaluate the feasibility and the profitability of a waste-to-energy project, for both parties, in collaboration with the mill. This collaboration will be dictated by involvement agreements. The proposed studies could be partially or fully financed by the mills. Our analyses will be proposed with an optimal sharing of responsibilities, as outlined previously under the product, pricing and benefits sections. We further intend to promote our process in industry trade shows, public seminars and in industry publications. We will intensify this promotion of our process and approach once we have completed our first major Waste-to-Energy project.


Competition


The Company believes that the combination of our improved steam generating process, and the "turnkey" business model offered to the industry has no direct competition. In addition, the specialized boilers used in our process, that are uniquely designed and built by McBurney are available to us exclusively when sold to any Canadian clients initially contacted by us.


Environmental costs


We currently have only negligible expenses relating to environmental compliance laws. Our process was specifically designed to be environmentally-friendly and to comply with generally popular environmental laws. Based upon our research, we do not expect to incur any significant expenses in adapting our process to comply with local environmental laws in the jurisdictions we are marketing our process. Approximately 20% of our equipment expenses for installing our system is for environmental compliance. This cost is built into our pricing.


Employees


We currently have four full time employees, three of whom are senior management. One is engaged in financial activities, one is in charge sales and marketing activities and one oversees our legal and compliance issues. Additional financing permitting, we intend to hire up to three additional employees. None of our employees are represented by a labor union. We believe that relations with our employees are good.


ITEM 2. PROPERTIES


The Company maintains its corporate offices at 4720 boulevard Royal, Suite 103, Trois-Rivieres-Ouest, Quebec,Canada where we have approximately 1,115 square feet at an annual rental of US $8,600 including all utilities and applicable taxes. The property is leased for three years expiring June 30, 2004.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


The Company entered into an agreement to secure financing whereby the Company would receive $250,000 US at the signing of a 12% secured convertible debenture and an additional $250,000 US in the near future.  The $500,000 US debenture is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of the lesser of $.225 or the average of the lowest 3 inter-day trading prices during the 20 trading days immediately prior to the conversion date discounted by 50%.  The debenture holder will also receive for each $1.00 of debenture investment, warrants to purchase 3 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The warrant term shall be for three years.  The exercise price of the warrant is the lessor of of $0.107, subject to adjustment under certain antidilution provisions, and the average of the lowest three inter-day trading prices for our common stock during the twenty trading day period ending one trading day prior to the date of exercise.  During the current year, the debenture holder filed suit against the Company for non compliance with the terms of the agreement.  At September 30, 2002 the Company had no legal representation on this matter. The Company has been in negotiations with the debenture holder to settle this matter without any further legal proceedings.

ITEM 6.  PLAN OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes that are included under Item 7. Statements made below which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, general economic conditions, our ability to complete development and then market our services, competitive factors and other risk factors as stated in other of our public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


Our main business purpose is to provide the pulp and paper industry with the most practical, economical and efficient way of disposing of the sludge they produce as a by-product of their operations. Our proprietary technology also allows us to give enhanced value to the waste sludge and other residues generated by their wastewater treatment systems. We own a process to convert, by combustion, in an environmentally safe manner, the waste residue produced by pulp and paper mills into steam. We intend to profit by charging mills for the disposal of their sludge by converting it to steam, which will be less than they are currently paying for shipping and storage of waste sludge. As an added benefit to the mill, it can, in turn, use the steam as energy thereby creating a low cost, clean energy source.


We signed our first agreement on April 12, 2002 with J. Ford Ltee., a pulp and paper manufacturer in Quebec, Canada. This agreement is for five years with a revenue stream of approximately $1 million US per year to Biomasse. The equipment for this projuect is in the construction phase and we anticipated the project to begin generating revenue by December 2002.   Due to financing difficulties we experienced with this project, the installation has yet to take place and tentatively is scheduled to begin in the later part of the second calendar quarter of 2003, which postpones our revenue generation to October 2003 from this project.  


We intend to concentrate initially on the North American pulp and paper companies. During the past year we identified several potential customers, The Great Northern Paper Company of Millinocket, Maine and Kruger in Bromptonville, Quebec. We completed the profitability and feasibility studies for these installation and based upon the study's very positive conclusions, we believe we are close to finalizing a ten-year contract for the sale of steam utilizing our process with both of these organizations in the near future. Once these contracts are finalized, a nine to twelve month installation process will ensue. We do not expect to generate any substantial revenue until the installation is completed and the system has been tested and is operational. Our studies indicate that the cost of equipment and installation for a plant suitable for Great Northern Paper Company and Kruger Bromptonville is estimated at approximately $7,000,000 and $9,200,000 respectively.

Liquidity


As reflected in our September 30, 2002 balance sheet, we have minimal cash on hand.  The Company’s operations are not generating sufficient cash to maintain its present operations.  The Company had a negative working capital of approximately $864,372 at September 30, 2002.  The company has reviewed all non-essential activities and expenditures and has aggressively curtailed these items to assist in reducing the cash used in operating activities. Monthly operating expenses including rent, communications, travel, consulting, and professional fees and other general and administrative are approximately $30,000.  When we listed on the OTC bulletin board, the number of our employees increased to four with the addition of a Vice President of Legal Affairs as well as an administrative person. Once this happened, executive and management salaries are estimated to be approximately $20,000 per month. We have several options to fund the above monthly expenditures: In our contract with the pulp and paper manufacturers, we are requiring a deposit with the signing of the contract of approximately one months revenue. In the case of the J Ford Ltee project, that equates to approximately $83,000 US. These deposits will then contribute to the satisfying our overall monthly expenditures. Additional capital and/or borrowings will be necessary in order for the Company to continue in existence until attaining and sustaining profitable operations.  The Company is aggressively pursuing strategic alliances which will bring a cash infusion, restructuring and a forward looking business plan.

          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT





To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Biomasse International, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Biomasse International, Inc. as of September 30, 2002 and 2001 and the related statements of operations, shareholders’ equity (deficiency) and cash flows for the year ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards generally accepted in the 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Biomasse International, Inc. at September 30, 2002 and 2001, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 5 to the financial statements, the Company has experienced an operating loss for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BIOMASSE INTERNATIONAL, INC.

(A COMPANY IN THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001


NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION


     Biomasse International, Inc., was incorporated in the State of Florida on March 19, 1999.  The company has acquired a unique technology to process and dispose of the waste created by pulp and paper companies in an efficient and environmentally-friendly way.  The pulp and paper industry in Canada is facing many challenges caused by an increasingly competitive world market.  Pulp and paper plants in Canada are lagging behind their competitors in the U.S.A. and Europe in productivity and in quality of their products.  The industry is now in a restructuring phase to reduce its costs of operations and diversify its products line.  The industry is also increasingly scrutinized by environmental agencies as this industry is a major producer of toxic waste.  Environmental regulations are becoming tighter and the public is becoming more environmentally-conscious.  Biomasse International, Inc.’s technology addresses both problems:  to eliminate the toxic waste by incinerating it and then from the waste material to produce steam energy which can be used for the operation of machinery in the plants.  The plant thus saves the cost of trucking the waste to distant locations to bury it, and at the same time it eliminates the waste completely, meeting the most stringent environmental concerns.


     Biomasse International, Inc. prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted  accounting principles.  This basis of accounting involves the application of accrual accounting; consequently, revenues and gains are recognized when earned, and expenses and losses are recognized when incurred.  Financial statement items are recorded at historical cost and may not necessarily represent current values.


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Management estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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.  Certain amounts included in the financial statements are estimated based on currently available information and management’s judgment as to the outcome of future conditions and circumstances.  Changes in the status of certain facts or circumstances could result in material changes to the estimates used in the preparation of financial statements and actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions.  Every effort is made to ensure the integrity of such estimates.


Fair value of financial instruments:

The carrying amounts of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short duration of these instruments.


Intangible assets

Intangible assets consist principally of intellectual property and rights related to the technology to process and dispose of waste created by pulp and paper companies.  Intangible assets are amortized on a straight line basis over 5 years.


Impairment of long-lived assets:

Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to the future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.  The fair value of an asset is the amount at which the asset could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.  Quoted market prices in active markets are the best evidence of fair value and shall be used as the basis for the measurement, if available.  If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value shall be based on the best information available in the circumstances.  The estimate of fair value shall consider prices for similar assets and the results of valuation techniques to the extent available in the circumstances.  Valuation techniques include the present value of estimated expected future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risk involved, option-pricing models, matrix pricing and fundamental analysis.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):


Cash and cash equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of ninety days or less to be cash and cash equivalents.  Such investments are valued at quoted market prices.


Receivables:

The Company believes that the carrying amount of receivables at September 30, 2002 and 2001 approximate their fair values at such date.


Property, equipment and depreciation:

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows when the property and equipment is placed in service:


Estimate Useful Life

        (In Years)


Office Furniture and Equipment

10

Computer Equipment

  3

Machinery and Equipment

10


Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred, and expenditures for significant improvements are capitalized.  The cost of property and equipment retired or sold, together with the related accumulated depreciation, are removed from the appropriate asset and depreciation accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in operations.  


Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues recognized to date are consultation services.  In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (“SAB 101”), “Revenue Recognition,” which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC.  SAB 101 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provide guidance for disclosures related to revenue recognition policies.  Management believes that Biomasse International, Inc.’s revenue recognition practices are in conformity with the guidelines of SAB 101.


Earnings (Loss) per share calculation:

Earnings (Loss) per common share are calculated under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share,” which establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share.  SFAS No. 128 requires the Company to report both basic earnings (loss) per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, and diluted earnings (loss) per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus all potential dilutive common shares outstanding.  Options and warrants are not considered in calculating diluted earnings (loss) per share since considering such items would have an anti-dilutive effect.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

The Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (SFAS) No. 141, “Business Combinations,” was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in July 2001.  This Statement establishes standards for accounting and reporting for business combinations.  This statement requires the purchase method of accounting to be used for all business combinations, and prohibits the pooling-of-interests method of accounting.  This Statement is effective for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and supercedes APB Opinion No. 16, “Business Combinations” as well as Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 38, “Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies of Purchased Enterprises.”  The adoption of this statement by the Company did not have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):


The Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (SFAS) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in July 2001.  This Statement addresses how intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets should be accounted for in financial statements upon their acquisitiion.  This statement requires goodwill amortization to cease and for goodwill to be periodically reviewed for impairment, for fiscal years beginning after October 31, 2001.  SFAS No. 142 supercedes APB Opinion No. 17, “Intangible Assets.” The adoption of this statement by the Company did not have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.


The Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (SFAS) No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligation,” was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in August 2001.  This Statement will require companies to record a liability for asset retirement obligations in the period  in which they are incurred, which typically could be upon completion or shortly thereafter.  The FASB decided to limit the scope to legal obligation and the liability will be recorded at fair value. This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.


The Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (SFAS) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in October 2001.  This Statement provides a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of and replaces SFAS No. 121 “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of.”  This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

Office Leases


     On May 6th 2001, the Company entered into an agreement to lease office space for a period of three years starting on July 1, 2001 and ending on June 30, 2004.  The annual lease payment is $11,150.00 CAD.


     The following is a schedule by years of future minimum rental payments required under operating leases that have initial or remaining noncancelable lease terms in excess of one year as of September 30, 2002:

                        $ 21,780


NOTE 5 – GOING CONCERN


     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company reported net losses of $1,107,033 and $546,821 for the twelve months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 respectively as well as reporting net losses of $1,948,115 from inception (March 19, 1999) to September 30, 2002.  As reported on the statement of cash flows, the Company incurred negative cash flows from operating activities of $250,518 and $105,075 for twelve months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 respectively and has reported deficient cash flows from operating activities of $557,145 from inception (March 19, 1999). Continuation of the Company as a going  concern is  dependent  upon  obtaining sufficient  working  capital for its planned activity.  Additional capital and/or borrowings will be necessary in order for the Company to continue in existence until attaining and sustaining profitable operations.  The Company is aggressively pursuing strategic alliances which will bring a cash infusion, restructuring and a forward looking business plan.


NOTE 6 – CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE


     The Company entered into an agreement to secure financing whereby the Company shall receive $250,000 US at the signing of a 12% secured convertible debenture and an additional $250,000 US in the near future.  The $500,000 US debenture is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of the lesser of $.225 or the average of the lowest 3 inter-day trading prices during the 20 trading days immediately prior to the conversion date discounted by 50%.  The debenture holder will also receive for each $1.00 of debenture investment, warrants to purchase 3 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The warrant term shall be for three years.  The exercise price of the warrant is the lessor of of $0.107, subject to adjustment under certain antidilution provisions, and the average of the lowest three inter-day trading prices for our common stock during the twenty trading day period ending one trading day prior to the date of exercise.  During the current year, the debenture holder filed suit against the Company for non compliance with the terms of the agreement.  At September 30, 2002 the Company had no legal representation on this matter. The Company has been in negotiations with the debenture holder to settle this matter without any further legal proceedings.


NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES


The Company did not provide any current or deferred United States federal, state or foreign income tax provision or benefit for the period presented because it has experienced operating losses since inception.  The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset, consisting primarily of net operating loss carryforwards, because of uncertainty regarding its realizability.

On November 29, 1999, the Company was advised by Marc Dufresne (1978) Inc., a majority shareholder and affiliate, of a financial difficulty concerning Marc Dufresne (1978) Inc..  By way of a licensing agreement dated April 26, 1999, the Company exercised it right to cancel the agreement and repurchase 4,500,000 shares held by Marc Dufrresne (1978) Inc at $0.001 per share.  These shares are being held by Biomasse International, Inc. as treasury shares.  The company uses the cost method of accounting for treasury stock.  The company has made these shares available first for sale through its circular offering and also before any other unissued common shares are sold.  The total number of treasury shares available at September 30, 2002 is zero.
