Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
 
This quarterly report contains both historical and forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements in this quarterly report are not based on historical facts, but rather reflect the current expectations of our management concerning future results and events.
 
The forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of terms such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “ plan,” “foresee,” “likely,” “will” or other similar words or phrases. Similarly, statements that describe our objectives, plans or goals are or may be forward-looking statements.
 
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be different from any future results, performance and achievements expressed or implied by these statements. You should review carefully all information, including the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements included in this quarterly report. The following important factors could affect future results, causing the results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements in this quarterly report.
 
 
 
the timing, impact and other uncertainties related to pending and future acquisitions by us;
 
 
 
the impact of new technologies;
 
 
 
changes in laws or rules or regulations of governmental agencies; and
 
 
 
currency exchange rate fluctuations.
 
These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements in this quarterly report. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could have material adverse effects on our future results. The forward-looking statements in this quarterly report are made only as of the date of this quarterly report, and we do not have any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. Investors are advised to consult any further disclosures by us on the subject in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, especially on Forms 10-KSB, 10-QSB and 8-K (if any), in which we discuss in more detail various important factors that could cause actual results to differ from expected or historic results. It is not possible to foresee or identify all such factors. As such, investors should not consider any list of such factors to be an exhaustive statement of all risk, and certainties or potentially inaccurate assumptions. We cannot assure you that projected results will be achieved.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
 
Results Of Operation
 
The following is derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and related notes, as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001.
 
Three Months Ended June 30, 2002 As Compared To Three Months Ended June 30, 2001
 
Revenues.    Revenues were flat decreasing by $12,160 or .41% to $2,921,133 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $2,933,293 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to the fact that the activity during the three months ended June 30, 2001 was higher than usual because of certain changes in Russian legislation, which took effect on July 1, 2001.
 
Cost of sales.    Cost of sales increased by $492,523 or 31% to $2,049,193 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $1,566,670 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This increase was primarily due to increased production price costs.
 
Consulting and merger costs.    Consulting and merger costs decreased by $4,000,000 and $504,177 respectively to zero for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $4,000,000 and $504,177 respectively for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease was due to the non-recurring nature of consulting and merger costs incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2001.
 
Selling and Administrative.    Selling and administrative expenses decreased by $261,387 or 40% to $391,517 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $652,904 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to decreased professional fees as well as operational efficiencies due to the integration of processes between subsidiaries.
 
Income from Operations.    As a result of the foregoing, our income excluding interest expense other than minority interest expense and before income taxes increased by $4,158,046 to $281,643 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from a loss of $3,876,403 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This increase was primarily due to the non-recurring nature of consulting and merger costs incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2001.
 
Interest Expense.    Interest expenses increased by $112,077 or 203% to $167,173 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $55,096 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This increase was primarily due to increased borrowings and interest expense related to our acquisition of a controlling interest in Vitis Hincesti S.A.
 
Income Taxes.    Income taxes decreased by $127,341 or 82% to $28,223 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $155,564 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our operating income before taxes related to our subsidiaries.
 
Net Income.    Our net income increased by $4,173,310 to $86,247 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from a net loss of $4,087,063 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This increase was primarily due to the non-recurring nature of consulting and merger costs incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2001.
 
Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 As Compared To Six Months Ended June 30, 2001
 
Revenues.    Revenues increased by $834,926 or 18% to $5,548,768 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $4,713,842 for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This increase was primarily due to increased production and sales resulting from acquisitions in 2000 through 2002.

Income Taxes.    Income taxes decreased by $116,564 or 51% to $110,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from $226,564 for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our operating income before taxes related to our subsidiaries.
 
Net Income.    Our net income increased by $4,237,984 to $331,579 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 from a net loss of $3,906,405 for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This increase was primarily due to the non-recurring nature of consulting and merger costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2001.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
 
For the past few months, we have funded capital requirements through operations. As of June 30, 2002, we had a cash balance of $89,868 and a working capital surplus of $1,726,004. This compares with a cash balance of $15,244 and a working capital surplus of $1,980,269 at December 31, 2001.
 
Net cash provided in operating activities increased by $2,883,523 to $1,969,871 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $(913,652) for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This increase in cash provided by operations resulted primarily from a decrease in trade receivables of $924,442 and a decrease in inventories of $1,015,528.
 
Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2002 increased by $638,624 or 444% as the current period used $782,293 for investing activities as opposed to $143,669 used for investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This change was due primarily to the additional investment in the acquisition of Vitis Hincesti S.A. in the amount of $703,707.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
 
 
ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
Other than as set forth below, we are not a party to any pending legal proceedings or are aware of any pending legal proceedings against us that, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse affect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
 
We filed a complaint on July 17, 2001, in the Circuit Court of the Ninth Judicial circuit in and for Orange County, Florida, against Vadim Enikeev, an individual; Serguei Melnick, an individual; La-Sal Capital, Inc., a Florida corporation; Icara, Inc. a Florida corporation, Stoneside Development Limited, a personal services corporation, Goldberg Law Group, PA., a Florida corporation; Glenn E. Goldberg, an individual; Alan S. Lipstein, an individual; George Carapella, an individual; Thomas L. Tedrow, an individual; Larry Eastland, an individual; Robert Klosterman, an individual; and John Does and Jane Does, fictitious parties, the true parties intended to be those individuals or entities liable to plaintiff.
 
The amended complaint seeks damages for breach of contract (defendants Enikeev, La-Sal, Icara, Goldberg Law Group, Stoneside); rescission (defendants La-Sal, Icara, Goldberg Law Group, Stoneside); breach of fiduciary duty (defendants Enikeev, Melnick, Goldberg Law Group, Goldberg, Eastland and Klosterman); aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty (defendants Stoneside, La-Sal, Icara, Goldberg Law Group, Goldberg, Carapella, Lipstein and Tedrow); declaratory relief (defendants Klosterman and Eastland); civil conspiracy (defendants Enikeev, Melnick, Goldberg, Goldberg Law Group, La-Sal, Icara, Stoneside, Lipstein, Carapella, Tedrow, Eastland and Klosterman); violation of Florida Securities Investors Protection Act (defendants La-Sal, Goldberg Law Group, Stoneside and Icara); fraudulent inducement (defendants Stoneside, La-Sal, Icara, Goldberg Law Group, Goldberg, Carapella, Lipstein and Tedrow).
 
We allege that defendants Melnick and Enikeev abused limited authority given to them to act as corporate promoters and entered into a civil conspiracy with the remaining defendants to issue corporate stock without our approval for their individual and collective profit. We further allege that many of the defendants entered into, or facilitated entry into, unapproved “consulting agreements” as a vehicle to justify issuance of the stock, and that the “consultants” provided little or no services to Asconi but received stock valued at as much as $11,200,000. The complaint seeks monetary damages, rescission and return of the stock still possessed by any of the defendants, and other relief.
 
Defendant Enikeev has been defaulted and we obtained an entry of final judgment against him on July 8, 2002, in the amount of $12.8 million. The remaining defendants have in some instances answered the amended complaint while also filing motions to dismiss, or have moved to dismiss only. Defendants Klosterman and Eastland have filed “General Denials” but have raised no defenses. No counterclaims have been filed against us at this time.
