NEXIA HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are those
of Nexia Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) and have been
prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States of America have been condensed or omitted in
accordance with such rules and regulations. The information furnished
in the interim consolidated financial statements includes normal
recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the
opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such
consolidated financial statements. Although management believes the
disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the
information not misleading, it is suggested that these interim
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
Company's most recent audited consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in its December 31, 2003 Annual Report on Form
10-KSB. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2004 are
not indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2004.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the
realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal
course of business. The Company has incurred cumulative operating
losses through June 30, 2004 of $11,373,703 and a working capital
deficit of $1,384,742 at June 30, 2004 all of which raises substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Primarily, revenues have not been sufficient to cover the Company's
operating costs. Management's plans to enable the Company to continue
as a going concern include the following:
o Increasing revenues from rental properties by implementing new
marketing programs.
o Making certain improvements to certain rental properties in
order to make them more marketable.
o Reducing negative cash flows by selling rental properties that
do not at least break even.
o Refinancing high interest rate loans.
o Increasing consulting revenues by focusing on procuring
clients that pay for services rendered in cash or highly
liquid securities.
o Reducing expenses through consolidating or disposing of
certain subsidiary companies.
o Raising additional capital through private placements of the
Company's common stock.
There can be no assurance that the Company can or will be successful in
implementing any of its plans or that they will be successful in
enabling the company to continue as a going concern. The Company's
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The information herein contains certain forward looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are intended to be
covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Investors are cautioned that all
forward looking statements involve risks and uncertainty, including, without
limitation, the ability of Nexia to continue its business strategy, changes in
the real estate markets, labor and employee benefits, as well as general market
conditions, competition, and pricing. Although Nexia believes that the
assumptions underlying the forward looking statements contained herein are
reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore, there can
be no assurance that the forward looking statements included in the Form 10QSB
will prove to be accurate. In view of the significant uncertainties inherent in
the forward looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such
information should not be regarded as a representation by Nexia or any other
person that the objectives and plans of Nexia will be achieved.
General
Nexia operates in two primary areas of business: Nexia acquires, leases and
sells real estate; and, Nexia provides financial consulting services. The
following discussion examines Nexia's financial condition as a result of
operations for the three and months ended June 30, 2004, and compares those
results with the comparable period from last year.
Real Estate Operations
Nexia's objective, with respect to real estate operations, is to acquire,
through subsidiaries, properties which management believes to be undervalued and
which Nexia is able to acquire with limited cash outlays. Nexia will consider
properties anywhere within the continental United States. Nexia attempts to
acquire such properties by assuming existing favorable financing and paying the
balance of the purchase price with nominal cash payments or through the issuance
of shares of common stock. Once such properties are acquired, Nexia leases them
to primarily commercial tenants. Nexia also makes limited investments to improve
the properties with the objective of increasing occupancy and cash flows.
Management believes that, with limited improvements and effective management,
properties can be sold at a profit within a relatively short period of time.
On June 30, 2003 Nexia sold its interest in Wichita Development Corporation
(Wichita) and its subsidiaries Salt Lake Development Corporation and Wichita
Properties to Diversified Financial Resource Corporation ("DFRC"). A similar
transaction did not occur for the period ended June 30, 2004.
Nexia recorded rental revenues of $118,864 and $247,001 for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2004 respectively, as compared to $122,306 and $239,224
for the same periods in 2003. Nexia's rental revenues for the comparative three
month and six months periods did not fluctuate significantly. Management's
current belief id that rental revenues are stabilizing and with certain
improvements being made to various properties rental revenues should improve
over the next 12 months.
Nexia had a loss from real estate operations of $100,729 and $164,954 for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to a loss of $14,037 and a
gain of $82,269 for the same periods in 2003. The increase in loss is
attributable primarily to the decrease in occupancy.
3
Nexia will continue efforts to improve profitability and cash flow by working to
increase occupancy and rental income from those properties which have a high
vacancy rate as well as focusing on properties with the highest per square foot
rental rates. Nexia also intends to continue to purchase real estate primarily
for appreciation purposes. Accordingly, Nexia hopes to not only minimize any
real estate cash flow deficit, but also generate sufficient cash to record a
substantial profit upon property disposition.
Consulting Operations
Nexia, through its majority owned subsidiary, Hudson Consulting Group, Inc.,
("Hudson") provides a variety of financial consulting services to a wide range
of clients. The primary service performed by Hudson involves assisting clients
in structuring mergers and acquisitions. This includes locating entities
suitable to be merged with or acquired by Nexia's clients, as well as providing
general advice related to the structuring of mergers or acquisitions. Hudson
also assists clients in restructuring their capital formation, advises with
respect to general corporate problem solving and provides shareholder relations
services designed to expose its clients to the investment community.
Nexia's consulting subsidiary generates revenues through consulting fees payable
in the client's equity securities, cash, other assets or some combination of the
three. The primary form of compensation received is the equity securities of
clients. When payment is made in the form of equity, the number of shares to be
paid is usually dependent upon the price of the client's common stock (if such
price is available) and the extent of consulting services provided. When stock
is received as payment it is booked as deferred revenue at its currently quoted
market value. After the stock is sold, it is then booked as revenue along with
an accompanying gain or loss on the sale.
Nexia generates cash flow, in part, by liquidating non_cash assets (equity
securities) received as fees for consulting services. As most fees are paid in
the form of equity, the revenues and cash flows realized by Nexia are somewhat
tied to the price of its clients' securities and Nexia's ability to sell such
securities. A decline in the market price of a client's stock can affect the
total asset value of Nexia's balance sheet and can result in Nexia incurring
substantial losses on its income statement.
Nexia's portfolio consists primarily of restricted and unrestricted shares of
common stock in micro to small cap publicly traded companies. This portfolio
currently consists of shares of common stock in different companies whose
operations range from that of high-tech to oil and gas companies. The Company's
ownership in the above publicly traded companies is less than 20% and thus
accounts for them as investments available for sale at the lower of cost or
market. Nonetheless, Nexia's portfolio is considered extremely volatile.
Revenues from Nexia's financial consulting operations decreased for the period
ended June 30, 2004, as compared to the comparable periods in 2003. Nexia
recorded $34,819 and $56,433 in revenues for the three months and six months
ended June 30, 2004, respectively, from its financial consulting operations as
compared to $52,630 and $110,833 for the same periods in 2003. Nexia experienced
a loss from consulting operations of $108,732 and $196,390 for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2004, as compared to profits of $5,351 and $6,463 for the
same periods in 2003. The increase in losses from consulting is a result of
Nexia's efforts to restructure and redefine the types of services it will
provide in the future.
Company Operations as a Whole
Revenues
Gross revenues for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, were
$153,683 and $303,444 respectively as compared to $174,936 and $350,057 for the
same periods in 2003. The decrease in six month revenues of $46,613 is due to a
decrease in consulting revenues due to restructuring efforts.
4
Losses
Nexia recorded operating losses of $502,253 and $1,408,653 for the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 2004 respectively, compared to losses of $29,122
and $105,188 for the comparable periods in the year 2003.
Nexia recorded net losses of $397,671 and $1,149,236 for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2004, as compared to net income of $209,914 and $118,851
for the same periods in 2003. The increase in losses is attributable primarily
to the issuance of shares of common stock to pay for services rendered which
increased expenses, and a decrease in consulting revenues.
Nexia does not expect to operate at a profit through fiscal 2004. Since Nexia's
activities are closely tied to the securities markets and the ability to operate
its real estate properties at a profit, future profitability or its revenue
growth tends to follow changes in the securities and real estate market place.
There can be no guarantee that profitability or revenue growth can be realized
in the future.
Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30,
2004, were $290,674 and $859,419, respectively, compared to $20,436 and $24,360
for the same periods in 2003. The increase in expenses is due primarily to
directors fees of $480,000 and $107,153 in legal and accounting fees. The
Company issued 10,000,000 shares of restricted stock to each director as fees
during the first quarter of the year.
Depreciation expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003,
were $65,398 and $70,484, respectively. This change was due primarily to the
sale of properties by the Company.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
On June 30, 2004, Nexia had current assets of $312,219 and $3,460,986 in total
assets. Nexia had a net working capital deficit of $1,384,742 at June 30, 2004.
The working capital deficit is due primarily to mortgages, which will, or may,
come due in the next twelve months and are thus considered as current
liabilities.
Net cash used in operating activities was $131,346 for the six months ended June
30, 2004, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $403,764 for the
six months ended June 30, 2003.
Cash used in investing activities was $117,030 for the six months ended June 30,
2004, compared to cash used by investing activities of $2,761 for the same
period in 2003.
Cash provided by financing activities was $229,292 for the six months ended June
30, 2004, compared to cash provided of $129,177 for the same period in 2003.
Due to Nexia's debt service on real estate holdings, willingness to acquire
properties with negative cash flow shortages and acceptance of non-cash assets
for consulting services, Nexia may experience occasional cash flow shortages. To
cover these shortages we may need to sell securities from time to time at a
loss. In addition, the Company is currently experiencing challenges with regard
to cash flows. We are looking at several options to improve this situation,
including the private placement of Nexia common stock.
5
Stock and Options To Employees and Contractors
During the quarter ending June 30, 2004, Nexia's subsidiary, Hudson Consulting
Group, Inc., has continued a policy of limited cash payments to its employees
and relied primarily on the issuance of Nexia's common stock registered under
the Company's S-8 Registration Statement for employee compensation.
Impact of Inflation
Nexia believes that inflation has had a negligible effect on operations over the
past three years. Nexia believes that it can offset inflationary increases in
the cost of materials and labor by increasing sales and improving operating
efficiencies.
Known Trends, Events, or Uncertainties
General Real Estate Investment Risks
Nexia's investments are subject to varying degrees of risk generally incident to
the ownership of real property. Real estate values and income from Nexia's
current properties may be adversely affected by changes in national or local
economic conditions and neighborhood characteristics, changes in interest rates
and in the availability, cost and terms of mortgage funds, the impact of present
or future environmental legislation and compliance with environmental laws, the
ongoing need for capital improvements, changes in governmental rules and fiscal
policies, civil unrest, acts of God, including earthquakes and other natural
disasters which may result in uninsured losses, acts of war, adverse changes in
zoning laws and other factors which are beyond the control of Nexia.
Value and Illiquidity of Real Estate
Real estate investments are relatively illiquid. The ability of Nexia to vary
its ownership of real estate property in response to changes in economic and
other conditions is limited. If Nexia must sell an investment, there can be no
assurance that Nexia will be able to dispose of it in the time period it desires
or that the sales price of any investment will recoup the amount of Nexia's
investment.
Property Taxes
Nexia's real property is subject to real property taxes. The real property taxes
may increase or decrease as property tax rates change and as the property is
assessed or reassessed by taxing authorities. If property taxes increase,
Nexia's operations could be adversely affected.
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Nexia's president acts both as the Company's chief executive officer and chief
financial officer ("Certifying Officer") and is responsible for establishing and
maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for Nexia. The Certifying Officer
has concluded (based on his evaluation of these controls and procedures as of a
date within 90 days of the filing of this report) that the design and operation
of Nexia's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15) under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective and adequate.
There were no significant changes made in Nexia's internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect Nexia's controls subsequent to the date
of the evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to slight
deficiencies and material weaknesses. Due to the Certifying Officer's dual role
as chief executive officer and chief financial officer, Nexia has no segregation
of duties related to internal controls.
