ITEM 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Business Overview

We are a holding company which currently operates through five (5) subsidiaries, namely American Residential Funding, Inc., a Nevada corporation (AMRES), ExpiDoc.com, Inc., a California corporation (Expidoc), Titus Real Estate LLC, a California limited liability company (Titus Real Estate), Bravo Realty.com, a Nevada corporation (Bravorealty.com), and Bravo Real Estate, Inc. (Bravo Real Estate Network).

General

Anza Capital, Inc. (ANZA) is a financial services company, whose primary subsidiary, American Residential Funding, Inc. (AMRES), provides home financing through loan brokerage and banking. Another subsidiary, Expidoc.com, arranges for notaries to perform loan document signing services for lenders, the largest being Ditech.com. Bravo Real Estate Services, Inc. is in the process of launching a real estate brokerage franchise business. Bravo Realty.com has had limited operations in the last two years and Titus Real Estate LLC is currently non-operational.


AMRES

The name "AMRES" is approved by the California Department of Real Estate, the primary governing body of AMRES, for use by American Residential Funding, Inc. An appropriate DBA filing of AMRES has been done, and the company is regularly referred to as "AMRES".

Loan Making

AMRES is primarily a loan broker, arranging during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2003 an average of greater than $150,000,000 per month in home loans. AMRES, through its agents in some 200 branches (an average of 1-8 agents in each branch) is licensed in 34 states to originate loans. AMRES has a $10,000,000 warehouse line of credit (with the possibility to increase to $25,000,000) with which to directly fund loans. Currently, less than 5% of total loan volume is funded this way, although this percentage is expected to increase in future periods. AMRES, through its loan agents, locates prospective borrowers from real estate brokers, home developers, and marketing to the general public. After taking a loan application, AMRES processes the loan package, including obtaining credit and appraisal reports. AMRES then presents the loan to one of approximately 420 approved lenders, who then approve the loan, draw loan documents, and fund the loan. AMRES receives a commission for each brokered loan, less what is paid to each agent.

 
  2  

 
 
Loan Standards

Mortgage loans arranged by AMRES are generally loans with fixed or adjustable rates of interest, secured by first mortgages, deeds of trust or security deeds on residential. Generally, mortgage loans having a loan-to-value ratio in excess of 80% will be covered by a Mortgage Insurance Policy, FHA Insurance Policy or VA Guaranty insuring against default of all or a specified portion of the principal amount thereof.

The mortgage loans are generally "one-to-four-family" mortgage loans, which are permanent loans (as opposed to construction or land development loans) secured by mortgages on non-farm properties, including attached or detached single-family or second/vacation homes, one-to-four-family primary residences and condominiums or other attached dwelling units, including individual condominiums, row houses, townhouses and other separate dwelling units even when located in buildings containing five or more such units. Each mortgage loan may be secured by an owner-occupied primary residence or second/vacation home, or by a non-owner occupied residence. The mortgaged property may be a mobile home.

In general, no mortgage loan is expected to have an original principal balance less than $30,000. While most loans will be less than $700,000, loans of any size may be brokered to unaffiliated third-party mortgage lenders.

Credit, Appraisal and Underwriting Standards

Each mortgage loan must (i) be an FHA-insured or VA-guaranteed loan meeting the credit and underwriting requirements of such agency, or (ii) meet the credit, appraisal and underwriting standards established by the lender for which the loan is brokered or sold. A lender's underwriting standards are intended to evaluate the prospective mortgagor's credit standing and repayment ability, and the value and adequacy of the proposed mortgaged property as collateral. The various lenders underwriting standards generally follow guidelines acceptable to FNMA ("Fannie Mae") and FHLMC ("Freddie Mac"). The lender’s underwriting policies may be varied in appropriate cases, especially in sub-prime loans.

Mortgage Software and Technology

AMRES currently uses loan origination software developed by an independent third party. The software allows the routing of pertinent information to the automated underwriting systems employed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the primary secondary-market purchasers of mortgages, and the automated systems of independent lenders such as IndyMac.

Currently AMRES is developing a fully automated online system to help us better serve our branches. The software will allow our branches to upload loans and submit them directly to DU, DO and LP without the use of any third party loan origination software. When this becomes available the process of getting a decision on a loan will be as easy as clicking a couple of buttons.

ExpiDoc ¾ Nationwide Notary Services

ExpiDoc is an Internet-based nationwide notary service that specializes in providing mortgage brokers and bankers with a solution to assist with the final step of the loan process: notarizing signatures of the loan documents. This is accomplished through ExpiDoc's automation of the process, its knowledgeable, experienced staff, and proprietary technology. ExpiDoc provides its clients with real-time access to the status of their documents, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. ExpiDoc's proprietary software executes both the front office notary coordination and the back office administration. ExpiDoc currently employs 5 people, located in Costa Mesa.

Expidoc has delivered six consecutive quarters of increased revenue and profitability. This success can be attributed to several issues, starting with a change in management in May of 2002. Our new management has focused their efforts on expanding our business both within our current account base, as well as growing the business by acquiring new clients. Within the current account base, management has worked closely with such customers as Ditech.com to become one the top three signing services utilizes by Ditech.com. Our business has grown from an average of 10 orders a day from Ditech.com in fiscal year 2001, to over 100 orders per day as of July 2003. In addition, we have continued to focus our efforts on securing new clients. We currently have fifteen clients, and are working to further grow that number over the next 12 months.

As a first step in accomplishing our goal of expanding our customer base, we hired a full-time marketing professional in January of 2003. We will market our services through several outlets, including but not limited to attending mortgage related conferences, direct mail, the internet (through our website), and a growing referral business. Further, we are continuing to evaluate additional sources of revenue we can generate outside the document signing business.

Discussion of Other Operations

Bravorealty.com and Bravo Real Estate, Inc.

Bravorealty.com, which is not affiliated with the now non-operational Bravo Real Estate, Inc. is a real estate brokerage that was incorporated in May 2000 and began operations in January 2001. AMRES owns 69% of Bravorealty.com, with the balance owned by Vincent Rinehart (15%), David Villarreal (15%), and Kevin Gadawski (1%). Bravorealty.com’s business model targets real estate agents as its customers and offers 100% commission retention for the agent, while charging a minimal fixed fee per closed transaction. For the year ended April 30, 2003, Bravorealty.com generated approximately $589,000 in gross revenue and netted a loss of approximately $5,000.

We have reviewed the current model of Bravorealty.com and Brave Real Estate, Inc. and have determined that a franchise type model for Bravo Real Estate, Inc. will provide us the best opportunity to grow our real estate business quicker and with a higher degree of profitability. As such, during the upcoming fiscal year, we will be launching Bravo Real Estate Network, a franchise-type real estate brokerage division of Bravo Real Estate, Inc. The majority of the current Bravorealty.com agents will be transitioned to Bravo Real Estate Network.

Under our franchise model, Bravo Real Estate, Inc. will collect an initial franchise fee, as well as an ongoing percentage of the gross commissions earned, anticipated to be collected at the closing of escrow on each transaction. In addition, we will also require that a small percentage of each transaction be set aside for target marketing in each specific region (newspaper advertisements, homes for sale brochures, etc.) Initially, we plan to recruit ten agents in each of our target markets, namely Los Angeles/South Bay, San Diego, Orange County, San Fernando Valley, Inland Empire, Bakersfield/Fresno/Sacramento and the Bay area. The startup franchise fee for these agents is estimated to be approximately $4,000. As we increase our agent base beyond these initial agents, we anticipate that the startup franchise fee will increase.

We believe there are many benefits for prospective agents. First the initial franchise fee for a more mature brand name is typically in the range of $25,000. Second, we will be able to offer our prospective agents all of the tools they require to grow their business, including, but not limited to, recruiting and training materials, internet presence through our website (each agent will have their own web page) and high quality selling and marketing brochures which may otherwise be unavailable to them due to the added benefit we offer in purchasing through economies of scale.

We have already started marketing our franchise model to prospective agents. In addition, we have developed and prepared numerous marketing materials including our full color tri-fold brochures, logo hats, shirts and other give-away’s. We will be attending regional realtor trade shows beginning in the second quarter of this year and have purchased a reusable booth for such events.

Titus Real Estate

Titus Real Estate is the management company of Titus REIT. Titus Real Estate, while currently operational, is not expected to provide us with significant revenues. Titus REIT sold its last property and is currently in the process of distributing final proceeds to the REIT shareholders. Titus REIT is in need of additional capital in order to expand its operations, and if it successful, the amount of revenue to us through Titus Real Estate may increase.

Sales and Marketing

As of July 22, 2003 we marketed and sold our mortgage brokerage services primarily through a direct sales force of loan agents totaling approximately 11 persons based in Costa Mesa, California, as well as over 525 loan agents at branch locations. We maintain 4 Company-owned offices in Southern California and more than 200 branch offices in 34 states.

Our sales efforts are headquartered primarily in our Costa Mesa, California office. Once a branch is opened, a branch manager supervises a licensed branch office and its employees, and receives all of the profits of that branch, after all relevant expenses and corporate fees have been collected. AMRES provides accounting, licensing, legal, compliance and lender access for each branch, retaining a percentage of commission generated by loan correspondents at each branch. The branch managers must follow all guidelines set forth by AMRES as well as all regulations of various government agencies and in most cases are independently responsible for the expenses incurred at the branch level, including personnel expenses. However, both State and Federal regulations are increasingly shifting various liabilities to AMRES.

Competition

We face intense competition in the origination, brokering and banking of our mortgage loans. Such competition can be expected from banks, savings and loan associations and other entities, including real estate investment trusts. Many of our competitors have significantly more assets and greater financial resources than us. In addition, there may be other competitors that we have not identified. We can make no representations or assurances that there will not be increased competition or that our projections will ever be realized. Competition among companies similar to AMRES that are seeking to acquire or establish branches, continues to intensify.

Proprietary Rights and Licensing

We may rely on a combination of trademark laws, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions with its employees, consultants and business partners to protect our proprietary rights. We may seek to protect our electronic mortgage product delivery systems, documentation and other written materials under trade secret and copyright laws, which afford only limited protection. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our systems or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. While we are not aware that any of our systems infringe upon the proprietary rights of third parties, there can be no assurance that third parties will not claim infringement by us with respect to current or future products.

In addition, we rely on certain software that we license from third parties, including software that is used in conjunction with our mortgage products delivery systems. There can be no assurance that such firms will remain in business, that they will continue to support their products or that their products will otherwise continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms. The loss or inability to maintain any of these software or data licenses could result in delays or cancellations of loans being brokered or banked.

Environmental Matters

We have not been required to perform any investigation or clean up activities, nor have we been subject to any environmental claims. There can be no assurance, however, that this will remain the case in the future.

Trade Names and Service Marks

We devote substantial time, effort, and expense toward developing name recognition and goodwill for our trade names for our operations. We intend to maintain the integrity of our trade names, service marks and other proprietary names against unauthorized use and to protect the licensees’ use against claims of infringement and unfair competition where circumstances warrant. Failure to defend and protect such trade name and other proprietary names and marks could adversely affect our sales of licenses under such trade name and other proprietary names and marks. We know of no current materially infringing uses. We have filed for trademark protection for the AMRES logo and the American Residential Funding name.

Employees

As of July 22, 2003, we employed a total of approximately 600 persons. Of the total, 50 officers and employees were employed at the principal executive offices of the Company in Costa Mesa, California, all of whom were engaged in Finance and Administration. In addition, we employ approximately 550 individuals through our Net Branch operations, 180 of who were engaged in loan administration and 370 of who were engaged in loan production. None of our employees is represented by a labor union with respect to his or her employment.

Historical Changes in Business Strategy and Changes in Control

Anza Capital, Inc. ("Anza" or the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 18, 1988 as Solutions, Incorporated. Since that time, we have undergone a series of name changes as follows: Suarro Communications, Inc., e-Net Corporation, e-Net Financial Corp., e-Net.Com Corporation, e-Net Financial.Com Corporation, and finally, effective on January 2, 2002, Anza Capital, Inc.

We have undergone two recapitalizations. In November 1999, our outstanding common stock underwent a two-for-one forward split. Effective in April 2003, (a) our preferred stockholders exchanged their Series A and Series C preferred stock for newly created Series E and Series D preferred stock, respectively, (b) our President exchanged cancelled options and converted debt into common stock and newly created Series F preferred stock, and (c) our common stock underwent a one-for-twenty reverse stock split, resulting in a decrease in our outstanding common stock from 99,350,000 shares to 4,967,500 shares. Please see further discussion of the recapitalization under Recapitalization.
 
On April 12, 2000, we closed the acquisition of AMRES and Bravo Real Estate. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement, we issued 375,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock to EMB, representing nearly 40% of our then issued and outstanding common stock, paid $1,595,000 cash, and issued a promissory note in the initial amount of $2,405,000, and AMRES and Bravo Real Estate became our wholly owned subsidiaries. As of April 30, 2001, the remaining principal balance of the promissory note was $1,055,000, and the note was cancelled in its entirety effective June 27, 2001, (see discussion of Global Settlement below). AMRES was the acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Since Bravo Real Estate had no operations or net assets, our management determined that a nominal value of $1,000 be attributed to its name. The fair value attributable to the 375,000 (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock on April 12, 2000 was $3,838,000 based on the fair value of assets acquired. Because the purchase was accounted for as a reverse acquisition, the $4.0 million in cash and notes issued to EMB were treated as a deemed distribution with a charge to our accumulated deficit. On April 12, 2000, James E. Shipley, the former CEO of EMB, was elected our Chairman of the Board of Directors and Vincent Rinehart was elected our President, Chief Executive Officer, and a director. Bravo Real Estate has not sold any franchises and is attempting to become an operating subsidiary.
 
Mr. Shipley was the CEO, President, and a less than 5% owner of EMB at the time of our acquisition of AMRES and Bravo from EMB. Mr. Shipley resigned as Chairman of EMB and became our Chairman in April 2000 (replacing Mr. Roth as our Chairman), and then resigned as our chairman and one of our officers on December 31, 2000, when Mr. Rinehart became our Chairman.

Mr. Rinehart was never an officer or director of EMB, but was the owner of 100,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of EMB common stock, making him less than a 10% owner of EMB at the time of the sales in April 2000, and continues as one of our officers and directors, as well as an officer of all of our wholly-owned subsidiaries.

On April 12, 2000, in accordance the provisions of the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Class B Convertible Preferred Stock, AMRES Holding/Rinehart demanded that its B Preferred be repurchased by us for an aggregate of one million dollars. On April 20, 2000, we agreed with AMRES Holding/Rinehart and Mr. Presta to amend the Titus Purchase Agreement to provide for the return of 100,000 shares of our Class B preferred stock issued to AMRES Holding and Mr. Presta upon the issuance of 50,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock to them.

On May 24, 2000, Michael Roth and Jean Oliver, the sole remaining officers and directors of prior management, resigned their remaining positions with us. On that date, Mr. Presta, an executive officer and director of Titus Real Estate, was elected as our Secretary and as one of our directors.

Bridge Financing

On June 27, 2001, we entered into an Investment Agreement and related documents with Laguna Pacific Partners, LLP. Under the terms of the agreements, in exchange for $225,000 received by us from Laguna Pacific, we:

(i)   executed a promissory note in favor of Laguna Pacific in the principal sum of $200,000, bearing interest at the rate of 7% per annum, secured by all of our assets, and payable on the earlier of nine months from its issuance date or the date our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Small Cap market. The purpose of this bridge financing was to finance the proposed start-up of Anza Properties and to provide us with working capital;

(ii)  executed a Warrant Agreement which entitled Laguna Pacific to acquire up to $225,000 worth of our common stock for the total purchase price of $1.00, calculated at 70% of the closing stock price on the date immediately preceding the exercise date. The issuance of the warrant was negotiated between us and Laguna Pacific.

Other than as set forth above, we have no affiliation with Laguna Pacific or any of their respective officers or directors. Mr. Ehrlich was the general partner of Laguna Pacific and has passed away.

During the year ended April 30, 2002, we repaid an initial $25,000 borrowed from Laguna Pacific. In June 2002, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and General Mutual Release with Laguna Pacific. As consideration under the settlement, we repaid the $200,000 note, 150,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock, plus accrued interest, and the note and warrants were cancelled.

Subsequent to the Laguna Settlement, a dispute arose regarding whether or not the Laguna Settlement included and consequently canceled the warrants. On October 25, 2002, the board of directors authorized the issuance of 150,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of the Company’s common stock upon exercise of the Laguna warrant. The stock was valued at the fair market value on the date the settlement was executed of $0.60 per share, less a 10% reduction based on the Rule 144 restriction. The value of the 150,000 shares issued to Laguna was determined to be $81,000. The value of the warrant immediately prior to the settlement was determined to be equal to the original relative value of the warrant, since no economic changes impacted the value of the warrant since the date of issuance. During the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, management recorded a gain on the settlement as other income in the amount of $51,543.

Formation of Anza Properties, Inc.

Also on June 27, 2001, in transactions related to the agreements with Laguna Pacific, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Anza Properties, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Anza Properties") capitalized with $75,000 from the proceeds of the bridge loan, which:

(i)  executed a Bond Term Sheet with us outlining the proposed terms of an offering to raise up to $5,000,000. The purpose of this offering was to obtain capital on behalf of Anza Properties to acquire income producing real estate. This real estate would then provide us with improved cash flow and net worth, on a consolidated basis;

(ii)  entered into an Employment Agreement with Thomas Ehrlich beginning 30 days from the date of the agreement and ending upon the earlier to occur of the liquidation of the real estate portfolio to be owned by Anza Properties or the completion of our listing on t he NASDAQ Small Cap market. The Employment Agreement provided for a salary of $20,000 per month, payable only by Anza Properties and specifically not guaranteed by us. Mr. Ehrlich was to serve as Anza Properties’ Vice President and be a director thereof. In connection with the Employment Agreement, we executed a Stock Option Agreement which entitled Ehrlich to acquire up to 100,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock at the closing price on the date of the Option Agreement, vesting equally over the 12 months following the date of the Employment Agreement, and exercisable only in the event Anza Properties is successful in raising a minimum of $2,000,000 in a contemplated $5,000,000 bond offering, and the holders thereof converting at least $2,000,000 of the bonds into our equity (any amounts less than $2,000,000 will be applied, pro-rata, to the total options exercisable under the Option Agreement). Mr. Ehrlich was to be involved in the identification of potential investment opportunities, the acquiring of capital, and the operation of Anza Properties;

(iii)  entered into a Consulting Agreement with Lawrence W. Horwitz to provide services to Anza Properties. The Consulting Agreement provided for compensation of $20,000 to be paid on its date of execution, and $5,000 per month for 8 months beginning September 1, 2001, guaranteed by us. In addition, we executed a Stock Option Agreement that entitled Horwitz to acquire up to 50,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock on terms identical to those of Ehrlich, described above. Mr. Horwitz is a licensed California attorney. Mr. Horwitz is providing legal services to us and Anza Properties.

(iv)  entered into an Operating Agreement with us concerning the operations of Anza Properties. The Operating Agreement specifies in material part that Vince Rinehart will be the President of Anza Properties, that Mr. Rinehart and Mr. Ehrlich will be the directors, that the signatures of both Mr. Rinehart and Mr. Ehrlich will be required on all checking accounts, and that the assets of Anza Properties cannot be encumbered without the express written consent of Mr. Rinehart and Mr. Ehrlich.

See our Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for accounting treatment of options and warrants issued above.

The purpose of Anza Properties was primarily to improve our net worth by acquiring income producing real estate.

 
  9  

 
 
Due to the death of Mr. Thomas Ehrlich in March 2002, all operational and fundraising efforts associated with Anza Properties have been permanently discontinued. The Bond Term Sheet, Employment Agreement with Mr. Ehrlich, Stock Option Agreements with Mr. Ehrlich and Horwitz, and Operating Agreement have all been subsequently cancelled. Anza Properties remains our wholly-owned subsidiary.

Global Settlement

As part of the acquisition of AMRES, we were obligated to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose of registering 375,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock issued to EMB. Additionally, we were obligated to pay the sum of $4,000,000 under the terms of a promissory note issued to EMB.

In an unrelated transaction, Williams de Broe ("Wdb") loaned the sum of $700,000 to EMB, which remained unpaid at the time of the Global Settlement. In connection with a revision of the agreement between EMB and Williams de Broe, our then-chairman (Mr. Shipley) executed a document on our behalf in favor of Williams de Broe, which Williams de Broe believed acted as our guarantee of EMB’s obligation. We disputed this assertion.    

In order to settle the outstanding disputes among all the parties, on June 26, 2001, we entered into a settlement agreement with EMB Corporation, AMRES Holding LLC, Vincent Rinehart, and Williams de Broe (the "Global Settlement"). As part of the Global Settlement:

(i)  we issued to EMB 75,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of restricted common stock as consideration for EMB’s waiver of its registration rights for 375,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock already held by EMB. The shares were valued at $2.80 (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) per share based on a 10% discount from the closing price on the date of the agreement. We recorded a settlement expense of $229,500 with regard to this issuance. We issued to EMB a promissory note in the principal amount of $103,404, which represents the reduced amount due to EMB by us under a promissory note previously issued in connection with the AMRES acquisition, after giving effect to a principal reduction offset for amounts owed by EMB to Wdb, but which were satisfied by us (see below). The note bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum and is convertible into our common stock;

(ii)  we issued to Wdb 150,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our restricted common stock valued at $459,000 as consideration for Wdb’s release of all claims against us arising under our purported guarantee of EMB’s obligation to Wdb. The parties agreed that the amount be credited as additional consideration to apply to the EMB notes payable. We received relief of debt to EMB in the amount of $624,766, but do not expect to receive any reimbursement from EMB;

(iii)  EMB acknowledges its obligations to pay all outstanding leases covering equipment and/or furniture now in our possession as contemplated by the agreement;

(iv)  EMB assigns its rights to all of our note payable totaling $485,446 to AMRES Holdings LLC, owned by Vincent Rinehart. The note bears interest at 10% per annum. This note is convertible into shares of our common stock based on 80% of the closing stock price on the date of the conversion. We assigned a value of approximately $60,681 to the beneficial conversion feature imbedded in this note. The entire principal balance, together with accrued interest, shall be due and payable, in full, on December 15, 2002.

(v)  EMB forgave principal and interest totaling $168,006. The balance of $103,404 convertible notes was issued, bearing interest at 10% per annum. On January 17, 2002, AMRES purchased the note, plus $6,291 in accrued interest, from EMB for the sum of $40,000, of which $25,000 was paid immediately and the balance of $15,000 was paid on June 1, 2002.

Termination of Homelife, Inc. Merger Transaction

On October 7, 2002, we issued a press release announcing the execution of a Reorganization Agreement with Homelife, Inc. The Reorganization Agreement requires the approval of each of our common and preferred shareholders. Under the terms of the Agreement, our current management team would have assumed the management responsibilities of the surviving company, which would have consisted of Anza’s current assets and subsidiaries and HomeLife’s Red Carpet Real Estate trademark and operations.
 
On February 27, 2003, due to a number of factors including but not limited to changing market conditions, the failure of Homelife to fulfill one or more of its obligations under the agreement, and the extended period of time it would take to complete the reorganization, we notified Homelife of our intent to terminate the Reorganization Agreement. On March 12, 2003, we entered into a Mututal Release Agreement with all the parties to the Agreement which terminated the Reorganization Agreement between the parties.

Recapitalization 

In the fourth quarter of the 2003 fiscal year, we underwent a series of transactions, which were undertaken as part of a plan of recapitalizing the Company so as to better position it for growth and acquisitions. In each transaction with the Series A and Series C preferred stockholders, the stockholders exchanged their preferred stock for a new class of preferred stock that the Board of Directors believed was less burdensome to the Company, primarily because of its more favorable conversion provisions. In the transaction involving the exchange of debt, the Company was able to materially reduce its debt load. These transactions, in conjunction with the 1-for-20 reverse stock split that was effective April 21, 2003, are believed by management to have positioned the Company for increased liquidity in its common stock, which will allow the Company to more easily raise capital and engage in acquisitions. The transactions specifically undertaken were:

(a)  a Stock Exchange Agreement dated February 28, 2003, by and between Anza Capital, Inc. and Keyway Investments, Ltd. Under the terms of the agreement, Keyway exchanged 4,006 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock for (i) 409,075 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of common stock, (ii) 2,003 shares of newly created Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, and (iii) warrants to acquire 183,168 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of common stock, exercisable for a period of five years, with each one-third at an exercise price of $0.50, $0.75, and $0.90 per share, respectively.

(b)  a Stock Exchange Agreement dated February 28, 2003 by and between Anza Capital, Inc. and EURAM Cap Strat. "A" Fund Limited. Under the terms of the Agreement, EURAM exchanged 4,051 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock for (i) 413,670 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of common stock, (ii) 2,025.5 shares of newly created Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, and (iii) warrants to acquire 185,226 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of common stock, exercisable for a period of five years, with each one-third at an exercise price of $0.50, $0.75, and $0.90 per share, respectively.

(e)  a Stock Exchange Agreement dated February 28, 2003, by and between Anza Capital, Inc. and Barbara Dunster. Under the terms of the agreement, Dunster exchanged 347,643 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for 173,822 shares of newly created Series E Convertible Preferred Stock.

Under the terms of the agreement, Rinehart (i) cancelled options to acquire 2,500,000 shares of common stock and (ii) converted an aggregate of $433,489.06 in principal and interest under a promissory into (y) 300,000 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of common stock, and (z) 18,800 shares of newly created Series F Convertible Preferred Stock.

ITEM 2 — DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

Our principal place of business is in Costa Mesa, California, where we lease an approximately 18,100 square foot facility for approximately $367,000 per annum (subject to usual and customary adjustments), under a written lease which terminates in June 2008. This location houses our corporate finance, administration, and sales and marketing functions. ExpiDoc leases 1,253 square feet of space at this same facility on a month-to-month basis for $2,631.

 
  12  

 
 
AMRES leases additional facilities: Long Beach, California (month-to-month, $3,564 per month); Palmdale, California (month-to-month, $2,007 per month), and Riverside, California (term expiring in 2006, $2,599 per month).

All HUD licensed branches, which represent over 20 of the more-than 200 total branches, are required by HUD to have branch expenses paid by AMRES. This is accomplished by using revenues in each AMRES branch bank account. The management agreement between the branch manager and AMRES requires prior approval of any obligations of AMRES exceeding $500. Office rent and similar liabilities are to be month-to-month obligations. In the course of ongoing internal audits, AMRES has found breaches of either AMRES or HUD requirements in the operation of specific branches, and has moved aggressively to take corrective action.

We believe that our current facilities will be adequate to meet our needs, and that we will be able to obtain additional or alternative space when and as needed on acceptable terms.

We may also hold real estate for sale from time to time as a result of our foreclosure on mortgage loans that may become in default. As of April 30, 2003, no such real estate is owned.

ITEM 3 — LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 2003, our wholly-owned subsidiary, American Residential Funding, was served with a lawsuit brought by Oaktree Funding Corporation, in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Bernardino, case number RCV 070427. There are nineteen (19) defendants in the action, including AMRES, the appraiser, escrow company, notary public, and borrowers involved in six (6) different loan transactions brokered by AMRES and funded by Oaktree.

The Complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants committed fraud, breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation, RICO violations, and unfair business practices. The Complaint requests damages in excess of $1,500,000, plus attorneys’ fees, interest, penalties, and punitive damages.

The Company is vigorously defending this lawsuit although the Company believes that the action lacks merit. The Company has not yet filed an Answer to the Complaint, but has filed a demurrer to the complaint in an effort to have the court dismiss AMRES, or in the alternative to dismiss certain causes of action against AMRES. The case is at a stage where no discovery has been taken and no prediction can be made as to the outcome of this case. The Company has recorded a provision of $140,000 as management’s anticipated maximum exposure in this matter.
 
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is from time to time involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition and/or results of operations of the Company. However, in the opinion of the Company’s management, other than as set forth herein, matters currently pending or threatened against the Company are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure relating to the market for penny stocks in connection with trades in any stock defined as a penny stock. The Commission has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a few exceptions that we do not meet. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith.

Holders

As of July 22, 2003, there were 4,967,460 shares of our common stock issued, and 4,829,960 shares of our common stock outstanding and held by 83 holders of record.

Dividend Policy

We have not paid any dividends on our common stock and do not expect to do so in the foreseeable future. We intend to apply our earnings, if any, in expanding our operations and related activities. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon such factors as earnings levels, capital requirements, our financial condition and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.
 
On February 28, 2003, our Board of Directors approved the Anza Capital, Inc. 2003 Omnibus Securities Plan. The Plan offers selected employees, directors, and consultants an opportunity to acquire our common stock, and serves to encourage such persons to remain employed by us and to attract new employees. The plan allows for the award of stock and options, up to 750,000 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of our common stock. On May 1 of each year, the number of shares in the 2003 Securities Plan shall automatically be adjusted to an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the outstanding stock of the Company on April 30 of the immediately preceding year. As of July 22, 2003, no shares of our common stock, and no options, had been issued under the plan.

ITEM 6 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
 
The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under "Risk Factors." The following discussion should be read together with our financial statements and the notes to those financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report.

Except for historical information, the materials contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis are forward-looking (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These include the Company's historical losses, the need to manage its growth, general economic downturns, intense competition in the financial services and mortgage banking industries, seasonality of quarterly results, and other risks detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although forward-looking statements in this Annual Report reflect the good faith judgment of management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by the Company. Consequently, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by the Company in this Annual Report, as an attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

OVERVIEW

We are a holding company which currently operates through five (5) subsidiaries, namely American Residential Funding, Inc., a Nevada corporation (AMRES), ExpiDoc.com, Inc., a California corporation (Expidoc), Titus Real Estate LLC, a California limited liability company (Titus Real Estate), Bravo Realty.com, a Nevada corporation (Bravorealty.com), and Bravo Real Estate Services, Inc. (Bravo Real Estate Network).

Anza Capital, Inc. (ANZA) is a financial services company, whose primary subsidiary, American Residential Funding, Inc. (AMRES), provides home financing through loan brokerage and banking. Another subsidiary, Expidoc.com, arranges for notaries to perform loan document signing services for lenders, the largest being Ditech.com. Bravo Real Estate Services, Inc. is in the process of launching a real estate brokerage franchise business. Bravo Realty.com has had limited operations in the last two years and Titus Real Estate LLC is currently non-operational.

AMRES has provided the majority of consolidated revenue and profitability for the year ended April 30, 2003, representing 97% of consolidated revenues. AMRES has benefited greatly by the historic drop in interest rates, which created a home refinancing boom. Over sixty percent (60%) of the loan business AMRES has experienced has been home refinancing. As rates appear to have bottomed in late June 2003, AMRES is expecting to see a significant drop in loan applications. This should be reflected in a revenue drop in November 2003 through March 2004, at which time the Spring rebound in home sales should occur. With loan production currently around 1,100 loans per month, and without the effect of offsetting measures, business may drop to an estimated 600 loans per month.

AMRES is establishing various business initiatives to reduce its reliance on the refinancing market. These initiatives include:
 
  • Expanding its mortgage banking operations, as there is a higher level of profitability delivered from banking loans compared to loan brokerage. This initiative includes establishing a wholesale operation, which would allow AMRES to fund loans brokered by other companies.
  • Building strategic alliances with other business models such as loan lead generators, builders, realtors and trade associations.
  • Promoting more direct-to-consumer lending, through marketing, with products that are less sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates, such as home equity loans, construction loans and sub-prime loans. Areas we will explore for expansion include AlumniHome Loan.com, maxrelo.com, builder business, Lending Tree and joint ventures with other sources of loans such as debt counselors, realtor associations and affinity groups.
  • Continuing to solicit new branches to join our network, especially those branch operations that are "purchase-home sensitive."
  • Reducing operating costs through efficiencies generated by new software and operating systems.
If we experience a significant slow down in the refinance business, and are unsuccessful in the business initiatives described above to expand our sources of revenue, we are prepared to take aggressive and immediate actions to reduce our cost structure. If our total loan volume should decline, we will need fewer personnel to carry out the functions needed to support the loan process. Specifically, we would reduce headcount in such areas as compliance, accounting and marketing. In addition, we will continually monitor our branch performance, closing under-producing branches to help control our expenses. If implemented, these measures will help offset any potential decline in revenues from loans brokered. However, should we experience significant and rapid declines in loan volume; it is unlikely that our cost containment measures will be able to completely offset the impact of the potential lost revenue.

We achieved an annual profit for the first time in the current fiscal year; however significant changes in interest rates could have a negative impact on our profitability in future periods.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Anza’s consolidated financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). GAAP requires the use of estimates, assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in the external disclosures of Anza including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. Anza believes its use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. Valuations based on estimates are reviewed for reasonableness and conservatism on a consistent basis throughout Anza. Primary areas where financial information of Anza is subject to the use of estimates, assumptions and the application of judgment include accounts receivable allowances, and loan losses on loans held for sale, which have been historically and favorably low. These significant estimates also include our evaluation of impairments of intangible assets (see further discussion below). In addition, the recoverability of deferred tax assets must be assessed as to whether these assets are likely to be recovered by Anza through future operations. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

Loans Held for Sale

Mortgage loans held for sale represent mortgage loans originated and held by AMRES, pending sale, to interim and permanent investors. AMRES sells loans it originates, typically within 30 days of origination, rather than hold them for investment. AMRES sells loans to institutional loan buyers under an existing contract. AMRES sells the servicing rights to its loans at the time it sells those loans. At the time a loan is sold, AMRES has no continuing interest since servicing rights are transferred at the time of sale in accordance with paragraph 5 of SFAS 140. Recourse provisions generally relate to first payment defaults, or breach of representations and warranties, or fraud, with respect to the loans sold. The recourse provision, because of its very brief term (30 days), is not practical to value in accordance with paragraph 6 of SFAS 140, since the value is deminimus. In the event AMRES management becomes aware of a default, the financial asset and liability is reinstated and an assessment of the impact of losses is made . To date, AMRES has not repurchased a loan as a result of its origination practices.

Fair Value of Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed In Purchase Combinations and Review for Impairments

The purchase combinations we evaluate and complete require us to estimate the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the combinations. These estimates of fair value may be based on independent appraisal or our business plan for the entities acquired including planned redundancies, restructuring, use of assets acquired and assumptions as to the ultimate resolution of obligations assumed for which no future benefit will be received. Should actual use of assets or resolution of obligations differ from our estimates, revisions to the estimated fair values would be required. If a change in estimate occurs after one year of the acquisition, the change would be recorded in our statement of operations.

Valuation of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

The recoverability of these assets requires considerable judgment and is evaluated on an annual basis or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. As it relates to goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets, we apply the impairment rules in accordance with SFAS No. 142. As required by SFAS No. 142, the recoverability of these assets is subject to a fair value assessment, which includes several significant judgments regarding financial projections and comparable market values. As it relates to definite life intangible assets, we apply the impairment rules as required by SFAS No. 142, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Assets to Be Disposed Of" which also requires significant judgment and assumptions related to the expected future cash flows attributable to the intangible asset. The impact of modifying any of these assumptions can have a significant impact on the estimate of fair value and, thus, the recoverability of the asset. The net carrying amount of goodwill is $195,247 ($20,000 related to Titus and $175,247 related to Expidoc) at April 30, 2003. Management has inquired as to the sale value of Titus, in its current state, and believes that an impairment of the carrying value of Titus is necessary to reduce the estimated proceeds to be received to $20,000. Accordingly, management has recorded an impairment of goodwill in the amount of $150,000 during the twelve months ended April 30, 2003. No impairment of Expidoc was determined necessary.

Income Taxes

We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. We regularly review our deferred tax assets for recoverability and establish a valuation allowance based upon historical losses, projected future taxable income and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. During 2003 and 2002, we estimated the allowance on net deferred tax assets to be one hundred percent (100%) of the net deferred tax assets.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2002 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2003

Revenues

Revenues increased by $32,441,445, or 121.9%, to $59,063,500 for the year ended April 30, 2003, compared to $26,622,055 for the year ended April 30, 2002. The growth in revenues is primarily attributable to the expansion and growth of AMRES primarily through the brokering of loans. AMRES accounted for over 97% of consolidated revenues for both periods. AMRES, as did most of the mortgage industry, benefited greatly from the decline in interest rates over the last twelve months. Typically, as interest rates fall, the refinance market grows, expanding the market of interested borrowers beyond those borrowing for the purchase of their primary residence. AMRES benefited from this market upturn, as they had the capacity in terms of people and infrastructure to accommodate the additional business. Management believes that a significant increase in interest rates could slow the rapid growth ANZA has experienced over the last two fiscal years.

More significantly, the increase in loan production in the branch program at AMRES was the major contributor to the growth in revenue. AMRES’ net branch program comprised approximately 200 branches as of April 30, 2003, compared to over 300 branches as of April 30, 2002. We made a concerted effort to close certain net branches that were not producing an adequate volume in monthly loan production. This has allowed us to concentrate our resources on the best performing branches. For the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, the total revenue associated with the Net Branches was approximately $44.6 Million, compared to total revenue associated with the Net Branches of $17.9 Million for the twelve months ended April 30, 2002. The Net Branch program is expected to continue to be a primary growth vehicle in the future. In addition, the mortgage banking division of AMRES is expected to continue its expansion over the next several months, including applying to FannieMae as a seller/servicer.

Revenues for Expidoc also increased significantly, $1,219,982 for the period ended April 30, 2003 compared to $348,177 for the period ended April 30, 2002. The increase is primarily a result of Expidoc.com refocusing its market strategy to secure higher volume customers as compared to servicing many low-volume customers. This change in focus is evidenced by the securing of business with such customers as Ditech.com. Management believes this to be the best strategy to focus on, as it allows Expidoc to both benefit from economies of scale and provide the highest level of service to its customer base. Management realizes that the loss of any one significant customer could have a material negative impact on the growth and profitability of Expidoc. As such, we have begun a marketing campaign to acquire new customers and have increased our customer base to 15 as of April 30, 2003.

Bravorealty became operational in January of 2001. For the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, revenues amounted to $588,562 compared with revenues of approximately $310,000 for the period ending April 30, 2002. Although Bravorealty.com has experienced moderate revenue growth, we have reviewed the current model and have determined that a franchise type model will provide us the best opportunity to grow our real estate business quicker and with a higher degree of profitability. As such, during the upcoming fiscal year, we will be launching Bravo Real Estate Network, a franchise-type real estate brokerage. Startup costs related to the franchise operations are not expected to be significant, and will be paid from the cash generated from our operations. Bravorealty.com will become a non-operating entity.

Revenues from Titus were not material for either period presented. Titus is currently not operating.

Costs and Expenses

Commissions are paid to loan agents on funded loans. Commissions increased by $22,479,607 or 138.3%, for the year ended April 30, 2003, to $38,734,044 from $16,254,437 for the year ended April 30, 2002. This increase is primarily related to the increased revenues discussed above. As a percentage of revenue, the cost of revenue increased by 5.5%, to 68.1% compared to 62.8% for the year ended April 30, 2003 and the year ended April 30, 2002, respectively. This increase is attributable to a higher percentage of total loan volume being closed by the branch operations. We earn a flat percentage on all loans closed within the branch program (.375% of the total loan value, with a minimum fee of $550). By comparison, our split with the corporate branches fluctuates based on the level of monthly commissions, with AMRES earning a higher percentage of the total commission as the monthly revenue increases. Thus, in any period in which there is a larger percentage of revenue growth associated with the net branches, our total commissions expense would tend to be higher as a percentage of revenue. Consulting expenses, associated with Expidoc.com and Bravorealty.com increased by $726,491, or 166.6%. This increase is directly related to the increase in revenues generated from these entities, especially Expidoc.com. Consolidated gross profit increased by $9,236,067 or 93.0% for the twelve months ended April 30, 2003 to $19,166,878 from $9,930,811 for the twelve months ended April 30, 2002.

Salaries and Wages

Salaries and wages totaled $7,217,621 in fiscal year ended April 30, 2003, compared to $3,066,428 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2002. The increase of $4,151,193 is directly related to the expansion of AMRES operations. As of April 30, 2003, our employee base was approximately 600 individuals. Further, the addition of many high producing branches has added significant payroll costs. In an order support the rapid increase in loan volume, we nearly doubled the number of support staff at our corporate headquarters in the areas of compliance, accounting and human resources.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses totaled $8,031,604 for the year ended April 30, 2003, compared to $4,249,240 for the year ended April 30, 2002. This increase of $3,782,364 can be attributed primarily to the business growth of the operating subsidiaries, namely AMRES, as additional personnel, office space and other administrative costs are required to handle the expansion.

Selling and Marketing Expense

Selling and marketing expense relates primarily to costs incurred for prospecting activities to obtain new clients (borrowers). These costs include acquiring "leads" which translate into funded loans. Selling and marketing expenses for the twelve months ended April 30, 2003 amounted to $2,463,343 compared to $2,764,686 in the prior period. The primary reason for the slight decline is that during the most recent twelve months, interest rates were at such record low points that the "pool" of borrowers interested in refinancing was abundant, thus helping us limit the amount of funds we had to direct toward acquiring prospective clients.

Consulting Expenses

To date, we have funded a portion of our operating costs through the use of common stock paid to outside consultants. During the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, costs paid in the form of stock to outside consultants totaled approximately $85,400, representing 152,500 shares. The majority of these shares were issued in conjunction with legal services provided by outside legal consultants with regard to the merger transaction we were pursuing with Homelife. In addition, we issued 199,000 shares at a cost of $84,330 to employees and directors as incentives. During the twelve months ended April 30, 2002, costs paid in the form of stock to outside consultants totaled approximately $645,550, representing 275,000 shares of common stock. The breakout in terms of types of consulting services performed during the year ended April 30, 2002 is summarized in Note 12 in the Consolidated Financial Statements. These costs are included in general and administrative costs on the consolidated statement of operations.

Provision for Loss on Brokered Loans

In March 2003, AMRES was served with a lawsuit brought by Oaktree Funding Corporation. The action relates to six different loan transactions brokered by AMRES and funded by Oaktree. There are several parties named in the action including AMRES, the appraiser, the escrow company, the notary public and the borrower in each transaction. We are vigorously defending the lawsuit as we believe the action lacks merit. However, it is the belief of the Company and of legal counsel that the maximum exposure attributable to this lawsuit is $140,000. The Company has recorded a provision for this amount in the financial statements as of April 30, 2003.

AMRES is named in two other actions which plaintiffs have alleged certain improprieties against certain branch managers. Management is vigorously defending these actions. It is the belief of AMRES management and of legal counsel that the maximum exposure attributable to these lawsuits is $105,000. We have recorded a provision for this amount in the financial statements as of April 30, 2003.
 
On December 9, 2002, we received notification from HUD requesting indemnification on up to 23 loans brokered by a former loan officer of the Company. AMRES executed and provided an indemnification agreement to HUD, as requested. On February 13, 2003, HUD notified AMRES that (i) without the loans originated by this particular loan officer, AMRES' default and claim rate would be an acceptable level to HUD, and (ii) as a result of the termination of that loan officer, and the indemnification agreement, the matter was closed. We carry errors and omissions insurance coverage, which may offset any potential losses, which may be incurred by the Company with respect to these loans. Our insurance carrier has granted representation by counsel to AMRES. As of April 30, 2003, we have accrued $55,000 of expense in the accompanying financial statements to account for the potential deductible we could incur if all of these loans result in losses.

Impairment of Goodwill - Titus Real Estate

In accordance with SFAS 142, goodwill, during the periods presented, was not amortized in accordance with SFAS 142. During the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, we assessed the carrying value of Titus, after a liquidation of assets held by the Titus REIT. Titus has no remaining assets or obligations as of April 30, 2003. We have inquired as to the sale value of Titus, in its current state, and believe that an impairment of the carrying value of Titus is necessary to reduce the estimated proceeds to be received to $20,000. Accordingly, we have recorded an impairment of goodwill in the amount of $150,000 to operations during the twelve months ended April 30, 2003. In addition, we reviewed the carrying value of assets and liabilities related to Titus and determined that further accrued acquisition liabilities in the amount of $80,000 were not paid, and therefore, the Company removed the liabilities through a reduction of the carrying value of goodwill.

Non-Recurring Settlement Expense / Gain

On October 25, 2002, the board of directors authorized the issuance of 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock upon exercise of the Laguna warrant. The stock was valued at the fair market value on the date the settlement was executed of $0.60 per share, less a 10% reduction based on the Rule 144 restriction. The value of the 150,000 shares issued to Laguna was determined to be $54,000. The original value of warrants was $132,543 and the value of the warrant immediately prior to the settlement was determined to be equal to the original relative value of the warrant, since no economic changes impacted the value of the warrant since the date of issuance. During the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, management recorded a gain on the settlement as other income in the amount of $78,543.
 
As part of the Global settlement in June of 2001, we recorded settlement expense of $61,494 relating to the excess value of shares issued as part of the global settlement compared to the net reduction in debt and interest relief received in the settlement. Further, in August of 2001, we settled a dispute with a former consultant over an investment banking agreement, issuing the former consultant 75,000 shares of our restricted common stock, and canceling 10,000 shares previously issued. The net shares (65,000) were valued at $221,000, or $3.40 and charged to expense during the year ended April 30, 2002.

During the twelve months ended April 30, 2002, we had capital lease obligations in default totaling $91,985 that were settled for $35,800. The remaining balance was recognized as a gain of $56,185. We used cash from operations to satisfy these settlements.

On January 17, 2002, American Residential Funding, a subsidiary ("AMRES") purchased a note payable by ANZA to a related party in the amount of $103,404 and accrued interest totaling $6,291 for consideration of $40,000 of which $25,000 was tendered. In the consolidation the note payable is eliminated and we recognized a gain of $69,695 from forgiveness of debt. We used cash from operations to satisfy these settlements.

 
  25  

 
Interest Expense

Interest expense was $146,572 as of April 30, 2003, compared to $179,428 as of April 30, 2002. This decrease is associated with a reduction in the total balance of notes payable during the year, offset somewhat by the amortization of the value ascribed to options issued to Laguna Pacific Partners, LLP as part of the Bridge Financing initiated by ANZA in June of 2002 and by higher average balances on our warehouse line of credit. See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of the "Warehouse Line Of Credit".

Income Taxes

Our income taxes have not been material during the years presented because of utilization of the Company’s net operating loss carryfowards for federal income tax reporting purposes. California suspended net operating losses usage for fiscal 2003 and 2004. In 2003, we deducted losses associated with the LoanNet transactions, as we sold our rights to the shares originally issued for the exchange transaction in February 2000. The loss deduction amounted to approximately $2.1 million. No deferred tax asset was previously recorded for this loss deduction. The Company has no current or deferred income tax expense during the period presented.

Net Income

We achieved a net income for the twelve months ended April 30, 2003 in the amount of $902,392, or $0.32 per share compared with a net loss of $(442,713), or $(0.24) per share for the twelve months ended April 30, 2002. The improved profitability experienced in fiscal 2003 is directly related to the increase in revenues and the reduction in non-cash expenses that have been significant in prior years. For the year ending April 30, 2002, non-cash expense relating to the amortization of the value ascribed to the Laguna warrants, settlement expense recorded as part of the Global settlement and stock paid to consultants amounted to approximately $1,040,244. Net income per basic share for fiscal 2003 amounted to $0.32, each, based on the weighted average shares number of shares outstanding of 2,777,656 during the year, using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  We issued a significant number of common shares in February 2003 as a result of our recapitalization of our stockholders' equity, causing an artifically low number of weighted average shares outstanding.  Had we used the actual number of shares outstanding at April 30, 2003 of 4,829,960 shares, our net income per share would be reduced from $0.32 per share to $0.19 per share.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows

Net cash used in operating activities was $3,962,850 and $184,983 for the twelve months ending April 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. For the year ended April 30, 2003, we recorded a net profit of $902,392 compared to a net loss of ($442,713) for the twelve months ended April 30, 2002. In the prior year, the value of non-cash expenses relating to the issuance of stock for services and settlements was $775,228 more than such issuances of stock in the current year. In addition, during the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, the value of the loans held for sale increased to $6,531,923 compared to $712,530 in the prior year.

Net cash used in investing activities was $210,547 and $29,024 for the twelve months ended April 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. For the year ended April 30, 2003, the primary cash used in investing activities related to the purchase of equipment in the amount of $187,688. There were no individually significant sources or uses of funds from investing activities during the twelve months ended April 30, 2002.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $6,221,205 and $828,972 for the years ended April 30, 2003 and April 30, 2002 respectively. The most significant increase in the cash provided by financing activities between the years relates primarily to advances on our warehouse line of credit. For the year ended April 30, 2003, advances on the warehouse line of credit amounted to $6,469,333 compared to $704,034 for the twelve months ended April 30, 2002. The warehouse line of credit is secured by first and second trust deed mortgages.

 
  26  

 
 
Our stockholders equity increased from $445,168 as of April 30, 2002 to $1,931,011 as of April 30, 2003. In addition, our working capital as of April 30, 2003 amounted to $1,459,162. Our current obligations consist primarily of liabilities generated in the ordinary course of business. ANZA has begun to build modest cash reserves in the event that a sudden change in interest rates translates into a downturn in business.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, ANZA completed a series of transactions intended to recapitalize the Company and position it for growth and acquisition opportunities in the future. These recapitalization activities improved the working capital position of the Company, reduced the overhang on the Company’s common stock and provided ANZA more favorable terms on our preferred shares outstanding. Due to ANZA’s improved financial position, the use of the Company’s common stock as compensation to outside consultants is expected to be minimal in future periods.

On December 9, 2002, the Company received notification from HUD requesting indemnification on up to 23 loans brokered by a former loan officer of the Company. We executed and provided an Indemnification Agreement to HUD as requested. On February 13, 2003, HUD notified us that (i) without the loans originated by this particular loan officer, AMRES’ default and claim rate would be an acceptable level to HUD, and (ii) as a result of our termination of that loan officer, and the indemnification agreement, the matter was closed. As we continue to develop our branch program, our risks of such similar events occurring in the future could increase. We are continually monitoring our internal control structure to help minimize the risk of future loss related to such events in the future.

As of July 31, 2003, our warehouse line of credit has been formally extended to $10,000,00.  Subsequent to the year end the Company exceeded its line of credit based on the verbal agreement with the lender for a temporary increase. Maintaining an adequate warehouse line of credit is critical to our growth plans for our mortgage banking operations. Any significant reduction in the borrowing limits or significant changes in terms could have a negative impact on our ability to expand the mortgage banking operations at the pace and with the degree of profitability we desire. Further, we have traditionally experienced no defaults on loans funded through our mortgage banking operations. As we continue to grow this segment of our business, our default rate on these loans may increase. Any significant change in our default rate would have a negative impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We are pleased with the current direction and financial improvement of ANZA. The operating subsidiaries are expanding in tough economic times. AMRES and Expidoc.com are currently profitable. The franchising initiatives for Bravo Real Estate Network or progressing as planned and could lead to increased revenues and profitability in future periods. The cash flow of ANZA has markedly improved, with cash on hand ending April 30, 2003 of $2,755,659 versus $707,851 the year earlier. Short-term debt is manageable and consists primarily of obligations generated in the ordinary course of business.

 
  27  

 
 
We generated an annual net income for the first time in the current fiscal year. We plan to continue our growth strategy to generate revenues sufficient to meet our cost structure. We made significant investments in the fourth quarter of the current fiscal year, in such areas as enhancing our technology for tracking loans, improving intranet communications programs, relocation and redistribution of staff and office support, and start-up costs for our real estate franchise model. We also incurred legal fees for our recapitalization and our annual audit fees. These expenses, combined with a slow down in loan production (specifically in February and March 2003), contributed to a small loss in the fourth quarter of the current fiscal year. We will continue to evaluate our costs relating to infrastructure and business expansion to ensure that the investment will pay off from the standpoint of increased profitability. We are prepared to modify current plans, namely restricting our cash outlay for expansion should business conditions change and our revenue base decline. We believe these actions will allow us to fund our daily operations and service our remaining debt obligations primarily through the cash generated by operations; however, there are no assurances that our plans will be successful.

Director

Vincent Rinehart has been a director and the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company since April 12, 2000, and its Chairman since January 1, 2001. He also serves in the following capacities: Chairman of the Board, President, and CEO of AMRES (commencing in 1997); Chief Executive Officer of Firstline Mortgage, Inc., a HUD-approved originator of FHA, VA, and Title 1 loans (commencing in 1985); and a director of Firstline Relocation Services, Inc., a three -office enterprise that provides real estate sales, financing, destination, and departure services to Fortune 500 companies (commencing in 1995).

ITEM 10 — EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Executive Officers and Directors

On June 1, 2001, we entered into an Employment Agreement with Vincent Rinehart. Under the terms of the agreement, we are to pay to Mr. Rinehart a salary equal to $275,000 per year, subject to an annual increase of 10% commencing January 1, 2002, plus an automobile allowance of $1,200 per month and other benefits, including life insurance. The agreement is for a term of 5 years and provides for a severance payment in the amount of $500,000 and immediate vesting of all stock options in the event his employment is terminated for any reason, including cause. Mr. Rinehart’s Employment Agreement was ratified by the shareholders of the Company at our 2001 Annual Shareholders Meeting.

2000 Stock Compensation Program

We have reserved shares of our common stock for issuance under our 2000 Stock Compensation Program (the "2000 Plan"), as amended. A total of 440,000 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2000 Plan, all of which have been issued. Our 2000 Plan was adopted by our board of directors in December 1999.

The 2000 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors. The administrator has the power to determine the individuals to whom options, restricted shares or rights to purchase shares shall be granted, the number of shares or securities subject to each option, restricted share, purchase right or other award, the duration, times and exercisability of each award granted, and the price of any share purchase or exercise price of any option.

Options granted under the 2000 Plan are generally not transferable by the optionee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and each option is exercisable, during the lifetime of the optionee, only by the optionee. Options generally must be exercised within 30 days following the end of the optionee's status as an employee or consultant unless extended to 90 days in the discretion of the administrator. Options may be exercised for up to 6 months upon death or disability. However, in no event may an option be exercised later than the earlier of the expiration of the term of the option or five years from the date of the 2000 Plan.

The 2000 Plan may be amended, altered, suspended or terminated by the administrator at any time, but no such amendment, alteration, suspension or termination may adversely affect the terms of any option, restricted share, purchase right or other award previously granted without the consent of the affected participant. Unless terminated sooner, the 2000 Plan will terminate automatically in December of 2004.

2003 Omnibus Securities Plan

On February 28, 2003, our Board of Directors approved the Anza Capital, Inc. 2003 Omnibus Securities Plan. The Plan offers selected employees, directors, and consultants an opportunity to acquire our common stock, and serves to encourage such persons to remain employed by us and to attract new employees. The plan allows for the award of stock and options, up to 750,000 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of our common stock. On May 1 of each year, the number of shares in the 2003 Securities Plan shall automatically be adjusted to an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the outstanding stock of the Company on April 30 of the immediately preceding year. As of July 22, 2003, no shares of our common stock, and no options, had been issued under the plan.

 
  33  

 
 
Board Compensation

In November 2002, Scott Presta received 42,500 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of our common stock for past services as a director and for agreeing to stand for re-election as a director, and Kenneth Arevalo and L. Wade Svicarovich each received 25,000 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of common stock for agreeing to stand for election as a director. There are currently no agreements with any of the directors, or director nominees for additional compensation, and the Company does not anticipate paying any additional compensation.

ITEM 12 — CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

On April 12, 2000, we closed the acquisition of AMRES and Bravo Real Estate. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement, we issued 375,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock to EMB, representing nearly 40% of our then issued and outstanding common stock, paid $1,595,000 cash, and issued a promissory note in the initial amount of $2,405,000, and AMRES and Bravo Real Estate became our wholly owned subsidiaries. As of April 30, 2001, the remaining principal balance of the promissory note was $1,055,000, and the note was cancelled in its entirety effective June 27, 2001, (see discussion of Global Settlement below). AMRES was the acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Since Bravo Real Estate had no operations or net assets, our management determined that a nominal value of $1,000 be attributed to its name. The fair value attributable to the 375,000 (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock on April 12, 2000 was $3,838,000 based on the fair value of assets acquired. Because the purchase was accounted for as a reverse acquisition, the $4.0 million in cash and notes issued to EMB were treated as a deemed distribution with a charge to our accumulated deficit. On April 12, 2000, James E. Shipley, the former CEO of EMB, was elected our Chairman of the Board of Directors and Vincent Rinehart was elected our President, Chief Executive Officer, and a director. Bravo Real Estate has not sold any franchises and is attempting to become an operating subsidiary.
 
 
  38  

 
 
Mr. Shipley was the CEO, President, and a less than 5% owner of EMB at the time of our acquisition of AMRES and Bravo from EMB. Mr. Shipley resigned as Chairman of EMB and became our Chairman in April 2000 (replacing Mr. Roth as our Chairman), and then resigned as our chairman and one of our officers on December 31, 2000, when Mr. Rinehart became our Chairman.

Mr. Rinehart was never an officer or director of EMB, but was the owner of 100,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of EMB common stock, making him less than a 10% owner of EMB at the time of the sales in April 2000, and continues as one of our officers and directors, as well as an officer of all of our wholly-owned subsidiaries.
 
On April 12, 2000, in accordance the provisions of the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Class B Convertible Preferred Stock, AMRES Holding/Rinehart demanded that its B Preferred be repurchased by us for an aggregate of one million dollars. On April 20, 2000, we agreed with AMRES Holding/Rinehart and Mr. Presta to amend the Titus Purchase Agreement to provide for the return of 100,000 shares of our Class B preferred stock issued to AMRES Holding and Mr. Presta upon the issuance of 50,000 shares (adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on April 21, 2003) of our common stock to them.

On May 24, 2000, Michael Roth and Jean Oliver, the sole remaining officers and directors of prior management, resigned their remaining positions with us. On that date, Mr. Presta, an executive officer and director of Titus Real Estate, was elected as our Secretary and as one of our directors.
On April 13, 2000, Mr. Shipley loaned the Company $300,000 due April 12, 2001, together with interest at 10% per annum. This loan was satisfied by the issuance of 7,500 shares (adjusted for the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of the Company's common stock to Mr. Shipley on or about April 25, 2001. Based on a press release by EMB, effective July 25, 2001, James E. Shipley again became the Chief Executive Officer of EMB.

On July 1, 2001, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Vincent Rinehart. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is to pay to Mr. Rinehart a salary equal to $275,000 per year, subject to an annual increase of 10% commencing January 1, 2002, plus an automobile allowance of $1,200 per month and other benefits, including life insurance. The agreement is for a term of 5 years and provides for a severance payment in the amount of $500,000 and immediate vesting of all stock options in the event his employment is terminated for any reason, including cause. Mr. Rinehart’s Employment Agreement was ratified by the shareholders of the Company at the 2001 Annual Shareholders Meeting.

In November 2002, Scott Presta received 42,500 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of our common stock for past services as a director and for agreeing to stand for re-election as a director, and Kenneth Arevalo and L. Wade Svicarovich each received 25,000 shares (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective April 21, 2003) of common stock for agreeing to stand for election as a director.

On February 28, 2003, the Company entered into a Debt Exchange Agreement with Vincent Rinehart, Chairman, CEO, Secretary, and Chief Financial Officer. Under the terms of the agreement, Rinehart (i) cancelled options to acquire 2,500,000 shares of common stock previously acquired as part of his Employment Agreement, and (ii) converted an aggregate of $433,489.06 in principal and interest under a promissory into (y) 6,000,000 shares of common stock and (z) 18,800 shares of newly created Series F Convertible Preferred Stock.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


Board of Directors Anza Capital, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Anza Capital, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, "ANZA") as of April 30, 2003, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended April 30, 2003. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of ANZA‘s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Anza Capital, Inc. and subsidiaries as of April 30, 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended April 30, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - GENERAL

ANZA CAPITAL, INC. ("ANZA"), a Nevada corporation, was originally incorporated on August 18, 1988, under the name of Solutions, Inc. Subsequently, its name was changed to Suarro Communications, Inc. on August 16, 1996, on February 12, 1999, May 12, 1999, January 18, 2000 and on February 2, 2000 the entity changed its name to e-Net Corporation, e-Net Financial Corporation, e-Net. Com Corporation and e-Net Financial.Com Corporation, respectively. On January 2, 2002, the entity changed its name to Anza Capital, Inc.

Effective in April 2003, (a) our preferred stockholders exchanged their Series A and Series C preferred stock for newly created Series E and Series D preferred stock, respectively, (b) our President exchanged cancelled options and converted debt into common stock and newly created Series F preferred stock, and (c) our common stock underwent a one-for-twenty reverse stock split, resulting in a decrease in our outstanding common stock from 99,350,000 shares to 4,967,500 shares. All common shares and per share amounts in the accompanying financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to effect the reverse stock split.

NOTE 2 RECLASSIFICATIONS

The amounts were reclassified to appropriately disclose costs and expenses directly related to revenue generating activities. Further, selling and marketing, as well as salaries and wages have been broken out of general and administrative expenses as these costs have become individually significant. In addition, all expenses relating to compensation, such as payroll taxes, have been reclassified into salaries and wages. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net income (loss).


NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ANZA and its wholly owned subsidiaries, collectively, the "Company." All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 
F - 9  

 
 
Revenue Recognition

Commissions generated from brokering loans are recognized at the date of close. Notary services related revenue is recognized when the services are performed. Loan origination fees are deferred and recorded upon the sale of loans to third parties without recourse, and whereby Anza has no continuing involvement.

Mortgage Loans held for sale

Mortgage loans held for sale represent mortgage loans originated and held by AMRES, pending sale, to interim and permanent investors. AMRES sells loans it originates, typically within 30 days of origination, rather than hold them for investment. AMRES sells loans to institutional loan buyers under an existing contract. AMRES sells the servicing rights to its loans at the time it sells those loans. Typically, AMRES sells the loans with limited recourse to it. This means that, with some exceptions, ANZA reduces its exposure to default risk at the time it sells the loan, except that it may be required to repurchase the loan if it breaches the representations or warranties that it makes in connection with the sale of the loan, in the event of an early payment default, or if the loan does not comply with the underwriting standards or other requirements of the ultimate investor. In the event AMRES is required to repurchase a loan, management will assess the impact of losses, which result from a repurchased loan. To date, AMRES has not repurchased a loan as a result of its origination practices.

Origination fees related to loans held for sale are recognized at the time legal title transfers to the investor based upon the difference between the sales proceeds and the basis of the loan sold, adjusted for net deferred loan fees and certain direct costs, selling costs and any other adjustments. AMRES defers net loan origination fees and these costs are not amortized and are only recognized into income upon sale. The mortgages are carried at the lower of cost or market as determined by outstanding commitments from investors or current investor yield requirements calculated on the aggregate loan basis. Management evaluates impairment of loans held for sale based on their estimated fair value. If impairment exists, AMRES records a charge to earnings. To date, no impairments have been made for mortgage loans held for sale.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" ("SFAS 140") in September of 2000. SFAS 140 is a replacement of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125 ("SFAS 125"), revising the standards for accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral and requires certain disclosures. However, SFAS 140 carries over most of SFAS 125’s provisions without reconsideration. SFAS 140 was effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001, however, the disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000. The adoption of the provisions of SFAS 140 did not have a material impact on the results of operations or the financial position of ANZA, since its transfers of financial assets are considered complete at the time of transfer.

The reserve for losses on loans held for sale accounts are based on estimates of losses relating to loans failing to meet investor criteria or potential investor default at the time of funding. Anza is required to fund any losses as a result of deficient underwriting procedures. Estimates are developed by evaluating specific loans and the value of the underlying residential real estate. The establishment of reserves requires the use of judgment and assumptions regarding the potential for losses. Though Anza considers these balances adequate and proper, changes in economic conditions in specific markets in which Anza operates could have a material effect on reserve balances required. During 2003, we determined no reserve for loan losses was required since all loans held for sale were sold shortly after year-end without any losses being incurred by the purchaser.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

ANZA considers all liquid investments with an original  maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Balances in bank accounts may, from time to time, exceed federally insured limits.

 
F - 10  

 
 
Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Significant renewals and betterments, which extend the life of the related assets, are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Property and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to seven years. Assets, which have a separable life, are depreciated over the life of those assets. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses as of April 30, 2003. Prior to June 2001, Goodwill was being amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected periods to be benefited. Management estimated the periods to be benefited at seven to ten years. In June of 2001, management elected early adoption of FASB No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and as such did not record any goodwill amortization during the twelve months ended April 30, 2002. See Note 6 for impairment of goodwill.

SFAS 142 requires, among other things, that companies no longer amortize goodwill and intangible assets which have indefinite lives, but instead test these intangible assets for impairment at least annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise). In addition, SFAS 142 requires that management identify reporting units for the purposes of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill, reassess the useful lives of other existing recognized intangible assets, and cease amortization of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. Management assesses whether the estimated fair value exceeds the carrying amount of its goodwill. Management has inquired as to the sale value of Titus, in its current state, and believes that an impairment of the carrying value of Titus is necessary to reduce the estimated proceeds to be received to $20,000. Accordingly, management has recorded an impairment of goodwill in the amount of $150,000 to operations during the twelve months ended April 30, 2003.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed when the advertising or promotion is published or presented to consumers.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

ANZA follows the provisions of SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." Long-lived assets, excluding goodwill, of ANZA are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable in accordance with SFAS No. 144. Management evaluates quarterly the recoverability of its long-lived assets based on estimated future cash flows from and the estimated liquidation value of such long-lived assets, and provides for impairment if such undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The amount of impairment, if any, is measured based on fair value or discounted cash flows, and is charged to operations in the period in which such impairment is determined by management.

Gains or Losses from the Extinguishment of Debt

ANZA follows the provisions of SFAS 145. SFAS 145 impacts ANZA only with respect to the rescission of SFAS 4, relating to how gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt are classified. ANZA reports all gains and losses on settlements of debt as components of operating income and losses. During the year ended April 30, 2003, ANZA had a gain on settlement of debt in the amount of $78,543. For the twelve months ended April 30, 2002, ANZA incurred a net loss on settlement of debts in the amount of $156,614.

 
F - 11  

 
 
Income Taxes

ANZA accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between bases used for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that ANZA will not realize tax assets through future operations.

Fair values of financial instruments

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. Statement No. 107 excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Corporation.

The following methods and assumptions were used by ANZA in estimating fair values of financial instruments as disclosed herein:

Cash and Cash Equivalents.

The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate their fair value. Accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximates fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

Loans Held for Sale.

For variable-rate loans that re-price frequently and have no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for fixed rate loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable. All loans held for sale were sold shortly after year end without any gains or losses recognized, hence the carrying values of these loans approximates the fair value.

Short-Term Borrowings.

The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased and other short-term borrowings maturing within 90 days approximate their fair values. Fair values of other short-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Corporation’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Accrued Interest.

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate their fair values.

 
F - 12  

 
 
Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments.

The Corporation generally does not charge commitment fees. Fees for standby letters of credit and their off-balance-sheet instruments are not significant.

Stock-Based Compensation

SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," defines a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation. However, SFAS No. 123 allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost related to stock and stock options issued to employees using the intrinsic method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Entities electing to remain with the accounting method of APB No. 25 must make pro forma disclosures of net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share, as if the fair value method of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. ANZA continues to account for stock-based compensation under APB No. 25. Stock-based compensation for non-employees is accounted for using the fair value approach consistent with SFAS No. 123.

Earnings Per Common Share

ANZA presents basic earnings per share ("EPS") and diluted EPS on the face of all statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options, warrants, and other convertible securities. As of April 30, 2003, dilutive shares related to the Series D Preferred amounted to 1,040,222, while dilutive shares relating to the Series F and Series E preferred amounted to 1,880,000 and 434,556, respectively.

Reporting Comprehensive Income

ANZA reports the components of comprehensive income using the income statement approach. Comprehensive income includes net income (loss), as well as certain non-shareholder items that are reported directly within a separate component of stockholders’ equity and bypass net income (loss). The provisions of this statement had no impact on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information

Management discloses financial and descriptive information about an enterprise’s operating segments in annual and interim financial reports issued to stockholders. An operating segment is a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities that generate revenue and incur expense, whose operating results are reviewed by the chief operating decision-maker in the determination of resource allocation performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. See Note 15 for these disclosures.

Significant Customer Concentration

For the year ended April 30, 2003, three investors accounted for one hundred percent of the purchasers of loans held for sale and accounted for one hundred percent of the revenues from the mortgage banking business. During the fiscal year 2003, the Company's warehouse line of credit amount was $10,000,000.  Subsequent to the year end the Company exceeded its line of credit based on the verbal agreement with the lender for a temporary increase.  At no time did the Company's line of credit exceed the amount verbally agreed upon with the lender. 

Recently Issued Accounting Statements

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, ("SFAS No. 150"). SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measurers in its statement of financial position certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. In accordance with SFAS No. 150, financial instruments that embody obligations for the issuer are required to be classified as liabilities. SFAS No. 150 shall be effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise shall be effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. ANZA is currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 150.

 
F - 13  

 
 
In April 2003, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 149") was issued. SFAS 149 amends SFAS 133 to clarify the definition of a derivative and incorporate many of the implementation issues cleared as a result of the Derivatives Implementation Group process. This statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and should be applied prospectively after that date. The Company is currently evaluating what effect, if any, the adoption of SFAS 149 will have on the consolidated financial statements.
 
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("FIN 46"). FIN 46 clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 for certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN 46 applies to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It applies in July 2003 to variable interest entities in which ANZA may hold a variable interest that is acquired before February 1, 2003. The provisions of FIN 46 require that ANZA immediately disclose certain information if it is reasonably possible that ANZA will be required to consolidate or disclose variable interest entities when FIN 46 becomes effective. ANZA is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of FIN 46 as it relates to ANZA.
 
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure ("SFAS 148") which addresses financial accounting and reporting for recording expenses for the fair value of stock options. SFAS 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. Additionally, SFAS No. 148 requires more prominent and more frequent disclosures in financial statements about the effects of stock-based compensation. The provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002, with early application permitted in certain circumstances. The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. ANZA has elected to continue to apply the intrinsic value-based method of accounting as allowed by APB No. 25 for employee stock-based compensation. The disclosure effects of SFAS 148 are not significant to the Company for years presented since minimal activity occurred in 2002 and no grants were made to employees 2003.
 
In November 2002, Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-21, "Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables" ("EITF 00-21") was issued. EITF 00-21 requires consideration received in connection with arrangements involving multiple revenue generating activities be measured and allocated to each separate unit of accounting in the arrangement. Revenue recognition would be determined separately for each unit of accounting within the arrangement. EITF 00-21 is effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of EITF 00-21 on the consolidated financial statements.
 
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, Guarantors’ Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others ("FIN 45"). FIN 45 elaborates on the existing disclosure requirements for most guarantees, including loan guarantees such as standby letters of credit. It also requires that at all times a company issues a guarantee, ANZA must recognize an initial liability for the fair market value of the obligations it assumes under that guarantee and must disclose that information in its interim and annual financial statements. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of FIN 45 apply on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. ANZA will apply the provisions of FIN 45 to any guarantees issued after December 31, 2002. As of April 30, 2003, ANZA had certain guarantees relating to its mortgage banking operations. Such guarantees, and ANZA’s potential liability for those guarantees were satisfied soon after year end. ANZA did not incur any costs or expense in satisfying these guarantees.
 
 
F - 14  

 
 
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities ("SFAS No. 146"), which replaces Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity. SFAS No. 146 requires that liabilities associated with exit or disposal activities be recognized when they are incurred. Under EITF Issue No. 94-3, a liability for exit costs is recognized at the date of a commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also requires that the liability be measured and recorded at fair value. Accordingly, the adoption of this standard may affect the timing of recognizing future restructuring costs as well as the amounts recognized. ANZA will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 146, for any restructuring activities initiated after December 31, 2002. At present, the Company does not intend to restructure operations, thus this standard is currently not applicable.

NOTE 4 - LOANS HELD FOR SALE

Loans held for sale as of April 30, 2003, consist of 35 conventional uninsured mortgages originated by the Company, with various interest rates. These loans were sold to investors subsequent to April 30, 2003. Details of the loans are as follows:

NOTE 5 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consists of the following as of April 30, 2003:



 
Equipment
$283,328 
 
Furniture and fixtures

$253,723

During the years ended April 30, 2003 and 2002, depreciation expense totaled $48,054 and $33,408, respectively.


NOTE 6 - GOODWILL

For purchase business combinations completed prior to June 30, 2001, the net carrying amount of goodwill is $195,247 ($20,000 related to Titus and $175,247 related to Expidoc) at April 30, 2003. Goodwill, during the periods presented, was not amortized in accordance with SFAS 142. During the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, management assessed the carrying value of Titus, after a liquidation of assets held by the Titus REIT. Titus has no remaining assets or obligations as of April 30, 2003. Certain acquisition related liabilities were not paid in the amount of $80,000, which were reversed with a corresponding reduction of goodwill. Accordingly, management has recorded an impairment of goodwill in the amount of $150,000 to operations during the twelve months ended April 30, 2003. Management believes the enterprise value of Expidoc exceeds the carrying value of goodwill as of April 30, 2003.

NOTE 7 - WAREHOUSE LINE OF CREDIT

The Company maintains a $10,000,000 warehousing line of credit which expires on March 31, 2004. The agreement is personally guaranteed by ANZA's chief executive officer. The credit agreement calls for various ratios and net worth requirements, minimum utilization requirements, and limits the warehouse period to 45 days for any specific loan. The interest rate is adjustable, based upon a published prime rate (4.25% at April 30, 2003), plus an additional 1% to 3% and is payable monthly. The rate varies depending on the type of loan (conforming or non-conforming) with higher rates on non-conforming loans. The average interest rate charged during the year ended April 30, 2003, was 6.75% per annum; the range of interest rates was 5.25% per annum at April 30, 2003 from 8.75% per annum at April 30, 2002. The line of credit is collateralized by the loans held for sale as referenced in Note 4. Subsequent to year-end, the Company has exceeded its line of credit based on a verbal agreement with the lender for a temporary increase. Following the release of this report, the Company will request that the temporary increase become permanent based on the Company’s financial position. At no time has the Company’s line of credit exceeded the amount verbally agreed upon with the lender. There are no known events of default with respect to the credit facility.

NOTE 9 - NOTES PAYABLE


On June 27, 2001, ANZA obtained a short-term bridge loan from Laguna Pacific Capital Partners in the amount of $225,000, with a stated rate of interest at 7% per annum. Anza also executed a warrant agreement, which entitled Laguna Pacific to acquire up to $225,000 worth of Anza common stock for the total purchase price of $1.00, calculated at 70% of the closing stock price on the date immediately preceding the exercise date. The relative value of the warrant amounted to $132,543, and such amount was reflected as a discount to the note. Management of Anza sought relief, since the general partners of Laguna Pacific did not perform under certain terms of the agreement. On or about June 27, 2002, Anza entered into a settlement agreement and general mutual release with Laguna Pacific (the "Laguna Settlement"). As consideration under the Laguna Settlement, Anza repaid the $225,000 note, plus $9,000 in accrued interest, and the note was cancelled.

Subsequent to the Laguna Settlement, a dispute arose regarding whether or not the Laguna Settlement included and consequently canceled the warrants. On October 25, 2002, the board of directors authorized the issuance of 150,000 shares of ANZA’s common stock upon exercise of the Laguna warrant. The stock was valued at the fair market value on the date the settlement which was calculated at of $0.40 per share, less a 10% reduction based on the Rule 144 restriction. The value of the 150,000 shares issued to Laguna was determined to be $54,000. The value of the warrant immediately prior to the settlement was determined to be equal to the original relative value of the warrant, since no economic changes impacted the value of the warrant since the date of issuance. During the year ended April 30, 2003, management recorded a gain on the settlement as other income in the amount of $78,543.

NOTE 10 - NOTE PAYABLE TO RELATED PARTY

On February 28, 2003, As part of the recapitalization, the convertible note plus accrued interest due AMRES Holding, Inc.,which is owned by Mr. Vincent Rinehart, ANZA’s CEO, was liquidated in exchange for 300,000 shares of ANZA’s common stock, plus 18,800 shares of Series F convertible preferred. The effective date of the exchange for preferred stock was April 21, 2003.  As such, as of April 30, 2003, there is no principal or interest outstanding relating to this note. Please see further discussion of the recapitalization in Note 12.

NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Capital Leases

As of April 30, 2001, ANZA was in default on certain capital lease obligations totaling approximately $91,985. During fiscal 2002, ANZA settled these obligations for cash payments totaling $35,800. The remaining balance was recognized as gain on settlement of debt in the amount of $56,185. (See Note 13)

As of April 30, 2003, ANZA had no significant capital leases outstanding.

Operating Leases

ANZA leases its corporate office located in Costa Mesa, California, under a non-cancelable operating lease arrangement, which expires in June of 2008. In addition, ANZA leases certain of its branch offices under non-cancelable operating leases that expire through 2006. Also, business operations are conducted from numerous facilities, which are leased under month-to-month arrangements. Rent expense for the years ended April 30, 2003 and 2002, was $1,611,161 and $1,265,302, respectively, under the various leasing arrangements.

Oaktree Litigation


In March 2003, AMRES was served with a lawsuit brought by Oaktree Funding Corporation ("Oaktree") against nineteen defendants, including AMRES, the appraiser, escrow company, notary public, and borrowers involved in six (6) different loan transactions brokered by AMRES and funded by Oaktree. The Complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants committed fraud, breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation, RICO violations, and unfair business practices. The Complaint requests damages in excess of $1,500,000, plus attorneys’ fees, interest, penalties, and punitive damages.

 
F - 17  

 
 
The Company is vigorously defending this lawsuit although the Company believes that the action lacks merit. The Company has not yet filed an Answer to the Complaint, but has filed a demurrer to the complaint in an effort to have the court dismiss AMRES, or in the alternative to dismiss certain causes of action against AMRES. However, it is the belief of the Company and of legal counsel that the maximum exposure attributable to this lawsuit is $140,000. The Company has recorded a provision for this amount in the financial statements as of April 30, 2003.

Other Actions

AMRES is named in two actions in which plaintiffs have alleged certain improprieties against certain branch managers. Management is vigorously defending these actions. It is the belief of AMRES management and of legal counsel that the maximum exposure attributable to these lawsuits is $105,000. The Company has recorded a provision for this amount in the financial statements as of April 30, 2003.

The Company is subject to a limited number of claims and actions, which arise in the ordinary course of business. The litigation process is inherently uncertain, and it is possible that the resolution of the Company’s existing and future litigation may adversely affect the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. All legal costs are expensed as incurred.

Indemnifications

On December 9, 2002, the Company received notification from HUD requesting indemnification on up to 23 loans brokered by a former loan officer of the Company. AMRES executed and provided an indemnification agreement to HUD, as requested. On February 13, 2003, HUD notified AMRES that (i) without the loans originated by this particular loan officer, AMRES' default and claim rate would be an acceptable level to HUD, and (ii) as a result of the termination of that loan officer, and the indemnification agreement, the matter was closed. The Company carries errors and omissions insurance coverage, which may offset any potential losses, which may be incurred by the Company with respect to these loans. The Company’s insurance carrier has granted representation by counsel to AMRES. The Company has accrued $55,000 of expense in the accompanying financial statements to account for the potential deductible the Company could incur if all of these loans result in losses.

Employment agreements

On June 1, 2001, ANZA entered into an employment agreement with Vincent Rinehart, its chief executive officer. Under the terms of the agreement, ANZA is to pay a salary equal to $275,000 per year, subject to an annual increase of 10% commencing January 1, 2002, plus an automobile allowance of $1,200 per month and other benefits, including life insurance. The agreement is for a term of five years and provides for a severance payment in the amount of $500,000 and immediate vesting of all stock options in the event his employment is terminated for any reason, including cause. In addition, ANZA granted options to acquire 2,500,000 shares of ANZA common stock at $0.08 per share, which shall vest monthly over a three-year period. The options were cancelled as part of the restructuring transactions discussed in Note 17.

On April 1, 2002, AMRES entered into an employment agreement with its president for the term of three years. Under the terms of the agreement, AMRES was to pay a salary equal to $168,000 per year, subject to a monthly increase or decrease based on the number of loans closed during the quarter, plus an automobile allowance of $800 per month and other benefits, including life insurance. During the year ended, April 30, 2003, this employee terminated his employment with AMRES. This employee received payment for all benefits due him through the date of his termination. The Company has no further obligation to this employee.

The Company entered into an executive employment agreement with its Chief Financial Officer which expires on April 30, 2005. This agreement provides for annual compensation of $120,000, monthly car allowances of $750, and other benefits, as well as incentive bonuses upon meeting certain criteria.

Guarantee of Debt

On July 6, 2000, ANZA guaranteed to a third party the debt of EMB totaling $657,349. The guarantee was provided due to the EMB sale of AMRES to ensure repayment of the note since EMB had limited assets. On June 26, 2001, this guarantee was satisfied with the issuance of 150,000 shares of ANZA’s restricted common stock as part of a global settlement (see Note 16).

NOTE 12 - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIT)

General

In March 2000, ANZA amended its articles of incorporation to change the authorized number of shares of its $0.001 par value common stock from 20,000,000 to 100,000,000. Additionally, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The preferred stock may be divided into and issued in one or more series. Effective in April 2003, (a) our preferred stockholders exchanged their Series A and Series C preferred stock for newly created Series E and Series D preferred stock, respectively, (b) our President exchanged cancelled options and converted debt into common stock and newly created Series F preferred stock, and (c) our common stock underwent a one-for-twenty reverse stock split, resulting in a decrease in our outstanding common stock from 99,350,000 shares to 4,967,500 shares.

Amendment to Increase the Authorized Preferred Stock to 2,500,000 Shares

On February 28, 2003, the board of directors of ANZA approved an amendment to ANZA’s Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized preferred stock from 1,000,000 shares to 2,500,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share, the rights, privileges, and preferences of which would be determined by the board of directors, in their sole discretion, from time to time. On March 5, 2003, the proposal was approved by written consent of a majority of ANZA’s stockholders; and became effective after ANZA’s annual shareholders meeting on April 11, 2003.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

During the years ended April 30 2002 and 2003, ANZA repurchased 13,180 and 52,266 shares of A Preferred for $6,590 and $26,133 respectively. Also during the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, ANZA declared and distributed $21,995 of dividends relating to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

On February 28, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement, whereby the holders agreed to exchange 434,554 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for total of 217,278 shares of newly created Series E Convertible Preferred Stock. The effective date of the exchange was April 21, 2003. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock had a liquidation value of $0.50 per share, or $217,277, which equates to the liquidation value of the Series E Convertible Preferred Stock of $1.00 per share, or $217,277 total. As such, ANZA did not incur any financial impact related to the exchange.

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

On May 14, 2002 and again on November 17, 2002, holders of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock converted 1,059 shares of Series C Preferred Stock into 286,425 shares of Anza's restricted common stock. The number of shares received upon conversion was determined based on the conversion discount specified in the agreement of 17.5%, taking into account the dividends which were due on the Series C Preferred shares. The beneficial conversion feature embedded in the Series C Preferred was originally charged to Anza's accumulated deficit. No expense was associated with the transaction. Series C Convertible Preferred stock dividends totaling $17,050 were charged to ANZA's accumulated deficit during the twelve months ended April 30, 2003.

On February 28, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement to exchange 16,403 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock for (i) 1,675,000 shares of common stock, (ii) 8,203 shares of newly created Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, and (iii) warrants to acquire 750,000 shares of common stock under the 2003 Stock Option Plan, exercisable ratably over a period of five years, with each one-third at an exercise price of $0.50, $0.75, and $0.90 per share, respectively. The effective date of the exchange of the common stock was February 28, 2003, and the effective date of the exchange of the Series C for Series D and warrants was April 21, 2003.  On the date of the agreement, the value of the Series C Preferred Stock, plus accrued dividends, was determined to be $1,977,426. The total shares of common stock were valued at $871,001 based on the fair market value of the shares as of February 28, 2003, less a 10% discount for transferability restrictions. The Series D Convertible Preferred Stock has a liquidation value of $1,040,222 and the warrants were attributed a value of $39,346 using the Black Scholes option pricing model. The value of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock and the warrants differ from the value of the previously outstanding Series C Convertible Preferred Stock by $6,643. The Company charged the difference to interest expense during the year ended April 30, 2003.

Preferred Stock

Each share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (assuming the 1-for-20 reverse stock split is effected) (i) has a liquidation preference equal to $126.81 per share, (ii) is entitled to receive a quarterly non-cumulative dividend equal to 7% per annum, which may be paid in cash or in common stock at the discretion of ANZA based on the average of the closing bid price for the last ten trading days of the applicable quarter, (iii) may be converted, after February 28, 2004, into 126.81 shares of Company common stock at the option of the holder, and (iv) is entitled to 126.81 votes on all matters submitted to the shareholders for approval.

Each share of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split) (i) has a liquidation preference (after the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock) equal to $1.00 per share, (ii) is entitled to a monthly, non-cumulative dividend equal to 12% per annum, payable in cash, and (iii) may be converted, only upon the mutual written consent of the holder and ANZA, into common stock at the average of the closing bid price for the last ten days prior to the conversion date. The Series E Convertible Preferred Stock does not have any voting rights.

Each share of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock (after giving effect to the 1-for-20 reverse stock split) (i) has a liquidation preference (after the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock and Series E Convertible Preferred Stock) equal to $16.675 per share, (ii) is entitled to a quarterly, non-cumulative dividend of 1.75 shares of Company common stock, which may be paid in cash at ANZA’s discretion based on the average of the closing bid price for the last ten trading days of the applicable quarter, (iii) may be converted, after February 28, 2004, into 100 shares of Company’s common stock at the option of the holder, and (iv) is entitled to 100 votes on all matters submitted to the shareholders for approval.

Common Stock

Amendment to Effectuate a 1-for-20 Reverse Stock Split

On February 28, 2003, the board of directors approved, subject to stockholder approval, an amendment to ANZA’s Articles of Incorporation to effectuate a one (1) for twenty (20) reverse stock split of ANZA’s issued and outstanding common stock. On March 5, 2003, the proposal was approved by written consent of a majority of ANZA’s stockholders; and became effective after ANZA’s annual shareholders meeting on April 11, 2003.

From time to time, ANZA's board of directors authorizes the issuance of common stock. ANZA values shares of common stock based on the closing ask price of the securities on the date the directors approve such issuance. In the event ANZA issues common stock subject to transferability restrictions under Rule 144 of the Exchange Act of 1933, ANZA discounts the closing ask prices by 10% to value its common stock transactions.

In June of 2001, ANZA issued 20,000 shares of its restricted common stock both as payment of a $14,482 liability due an outside consultant and as a "buy-out" of the remaining guaranteed contract for this consultant who was providing legal services to ANZA. In connection with this transaction, ANZA charged operations $43,118 for the difference between the carrying value of the liability and the value of the common stock.

On July 2, 2001, ANZA issued 16,250 shares of its restricted common stock valued at $57, 038 as a partial satisfaction of a loan payable due an unrelated party. The original amount of the loan, including interest payable was $150,000. ANZA continues to repay the note in monthly of payments together with interest at 0% per annum of $4,320 through May 2, 2002. As of April 30, 2002, $4,320 remained due on the loan.

At various dates from May 1, 2001 through April 30, 2002, ANZA issued 275,000 shares of common stock, valued at $645,550 to various consultants of which $624,717 are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations and the remaining balance of $20,833 recorded as deferred compensation.

The value attributed to the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock is $313,490 based on 18,800 shares at a liquidation value of $16.675 per share. the value of the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock and the common stock differ from the amount of the note payable by $42,001, which was charged to interest expense during the year ended April 30, 2003.


Stock Options and Warrants

2003 Securities Plan

On February 28, 2003, the Board of directors of ANZA approved, declared it advisable and in ANZA’s best interests, and directed that there be submitted to the holders of a majority of ANZA’s voting stock for action by written consent the Anza Capital, Inc. 2003 Omnibus Securities Plan (the "2003 Securities Plan"). On March 5, 2003, the proposal was approved by written consent of a majority of ANZA’s stockholders; and became effective after ANZA’s annual shareholders meeting on April 11, 2003.

The 2003 Securities Plan authorizes the granting of the following types of stock-based awards (each, an "Award"):
 

 
  F - 22  

 
 
A total of 750,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2003 Securities Plan. Additional annual increases in shares available cannot exceed 10% of the outstanding common stock. In the event the Company issues stock options or warrants, each Award shall specify the date when options or warrants are to become exercisable. To the extent required by applicable law, stock options or warrants shall become exercisable no less rapidly than the rate of 20% per year for each of the first five years from the date of grant. Subject to the preceding sentence, the exercisability of any stock options or warrants shall be determined by the compensation committee in its sole discretion. Forfeitures pursuant to the terms under which such shares were issued, will again become available for the grant of further awards. No stock option may be exercised after the expiration of ten years from the date of grant (or five years in the case of incentive stock options granted to certain employees owning more than 10% of the outstanding voting stock). Pursuant to the 2003 Securities Plan, the aggregate fair market value of the common stock for which one or more incentive stock options granted to any participant may for the first time become exercisable as incentive stock options under the federal tax laws during any one calendar year shall not exceed $100,000.

On February 28, 2003, warrants to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock were granted, which vest and are exercisable, over a period of five years. One-third each have  an exercise price of $0.50, $0.75, and $0.90 per share, respectively. Stock-option activity during the years ended April 30, 2002 and 2003 is as follows:

As of April 30, 2003, there were no outstanding employee options.

Had compensation cost for the Company’s employee stock options been accounted for using the fair value method of accounting described by SFAS No. 123 (see Note 3), the Company’s reported net loss of $442,713 and net loss per share of $0.20 for the year ended April 30, 2002, would have been increased to a pro forma loss of $579,783 and $0.40 per share, respectively. In fiscal 2002, options granted to employees are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, volatility of 83%, a risk-free interest rate of 3.25%, and an expected option life of five years. There are no grants made in 2003; therefore, no pro forma effects applicable.

The warrants issued in February 2003 were attributed a value of $39,346 using the Black Scholes option pricing model. The closing stock price and the date of grant of the warrants was $0.60 per share. The option life assumed is five years, risk-free interest rate of 2.5%, and an expected volatility of 15%. Management determined the measurement date to be February 28, 2003, since consent of a majority of the shareholders was obtained on that date. Warrants to purchase 750,000 shares which are outstanding, are exercisable ratably over a five-year period. As of April 30, 2003, no material warrants were exercisable since they were issued on April 11, 2003.


NOTE 13 - NON-RECURRING EXPENSES

On or about June 27, 2002, Anza entered into a settlement agreement and general mutual release with Laguna Pacific (the "Laguna Settlement"). As consideration under the Laguna Settlement, Anza repaid the $225,000 note, plus $9,000 in accrued interest, and the note was cancelled.

Subsequent to the Laguna Settlement, a dispute arose regarding whether or not the Laguna Settlement included and consequently canceled the warrants. On October 25, 2002, the board of directors authorized the issuance of 150,000 shares of ANZA’s common stock upon exercise of the Laguna warrant. The stock was valued at the fair market value on the date the settlement was executed of $0.40 per share, less a 10% reduction based on the Rule 144 restriction. The value of the 150,000 shares issued to Laguna was determined to be $54,000. The value of the warrant immediately prior to the settlement was determined to be equal to the original relative value of the warrant, since no economic changes impacted the value of the warrant since the date of issuance. During the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, management recorded a gain on the settlement as other income in the amount of $78,543.

During the twelve months ended April 30, 2002, ANZA had capital lease obligations in default totaling $91,985 that were settled for $35,800. The remaining balance was recognized as a gain on settlement of debt of $56,185.

On January 17, 2002, AMRES purchased a note payable by ANZA in the amount of $103,404 and accrued interest totaling $6,291 for consideration of $40,000, which $25,000 was tendered to EMB with the balance of $15,000 due on June 1, 2002. In the consolidation the note payable is eliminated and ANZA recognized a gain from the settlement of debt of $69,695.

 
  F - 24  

 
 
On May 27, 1999, ANZA entered into an agreement with an investment banker to seek debt financing through public or private offerings or debt or equity securities and in seeking merger and acquisition candidates. In April 2000, the parties agreed to amend the agreement to eliminate the fee based on a percentage of the consideration of a transaction, and to grant the investment banker 10,000 shares of the Common Stock and to cancel the options to purchase 10,000 shares. On August 7, 2001, ANZA agreed to settle a dispute over the terms of the amendment by canceling the 10,000 shares in exchange for 75,000 of ANZA’s restricted common stock. ANZA valued the additional 65,000 shares at $0.17 each and charged operations a total of $221,000 as a non-recurring settlement loss.

On June 27, 2001, ANZA entered into a global settlement agreement with several parties. The following reflects the non-recurring charge to operations associated with the Global Settlement for the twelve months ended April 30, 2002:

NOTE 14 - INCOME TAXES

At April 30, 2003, ANZA had net operating loss carry-forwards for federal and state income tax purposes totaling approximately $8.0 million and $4.0 million, respectively, which for federal reporting purposes, begin to expire in 2011 and fully expire in 2023. For state purposes, the net operating loss carry-forwards begin to expire in 2006 and fully expire in 2010. The utilization of these net operating losses may be substantially limited by the occurrence of certain events, including changes in ownership. The Company also has deterred tax assets for goodwill impairments of $1.4 million at April 30, 2003.  There are no other significant tax assets at April 30, 2003.  The net deferred tax assets at April 30, 2003 and 2002, before considering the effects of ANZA’s valuation allowance amounted to approximately $5.6 million and $6.0 million, respectively. ANZA provided an allowance for substantially all its net deferred tax assets since they are unlikely to be realized through future operations. The valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets decreased approximately $370,000 and increased approximately $321,000 during the years ended April 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. ANZA’s provision for income taxes differs from the benefit that would have been recorded, assuming the federal rate of 34%, due to the valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets.

NOTE 15 - SEGMENT AND OTHER INFORMATION

Segments were determined based on services provided by each segment. Accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Performance of the segments is evaluated on operating income before income taxes, excluding reorganization and restructuring charges, unusual gains and losses, and interest expense. For the years ended April 30, 2003 and 2002 management has provided the following information with respect to its operating segments (in thousands):

The primary historical activities of AMRES have been brokering retail residential real estate mortgages. AMRES commenced its mortgage banking division in fiscal 2001, which currently has $10,000,000 in warehouse lines, and funds directly about 5% of the loans originated by AMRES agents. Loans funded are primarily second mortgages and subprime loans. AMRES owns and operates four corporate-owned branches in Long Beach, Costa Mesa, Riverside, and Palmdale, California. The significant growth has been from their branch offices, which are operated by managers for a profit. As of April 2003, over 200 such branches were producing over $150,000,000 in monthly loans (compared with 300 branches and over $75,000,000 in monthly loans for the prior period).

NOTE 16: GLOBAL SETTLEMENT

In order to settle the outstanding disputes among all the parties, on June 26, 2001, Anza entered into a settlement agreement with EMB, AMRES Holding LLC, Vincent Rinehart, and Williams de Broe (the "Global Settlement"). As part of the Global Settlement:

(i)  Anza issued to EMB 75,000 shares of restricted common stock as consideration for EMB’s waiver of its registration rights for 375,000 shares of Anza common stock already held by EMB. The shares were valued at $0.14 per share based on a 10% discount from the closing price on the date of the agreement. Anza issued to EMB a promissory note in the principal amount of $103,404, which represents the reduced amount due to EMB by Anza under a promissory note previously issued in connection with the AMRES acquisition, after giving effect to a principal reduction offset for amounts owed by EMB to WdB, but which were satisfied by Anza and a note issued by Anza to AMRES Holdings, LLC to settle an acquisition obligation of EMB (see below). The note bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum and is convertible into common stock of Anza. See Note 13 for further discussions of this note.

(ii)  Anza issued to Williams de Broe ("WdB") 150,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $459,000 as consideration for WdB’s release of all claims against Anza arising under the purported guarantee of EMB’s obligation to WdB by Anza. The parties agreed that the amount be credited as additional consideration to apply to the EMB notes payable.

(iii)  EMB acknowledges its obligations to pay all outstanding leases covering equipment and/or furniture now in the possession of Anza as contemplated by the agreement.

(iv)  EMB assigned its rights of a portion of Anza’s note payable totaling $485,446 to AMRES Holdings LLC, owned by Vincent Rinehart. The note bears interest at 10% per annum. This note is convertible into shares of common stock based on 90% of the closing stock price on the date of the conversion. ANZA assigned a value of approximately $60,681 to the beneficial conversion feature imbedded in this note. As part of the restructuring, The Company converted outstanding balance of the note plus accrued interest into 300,000 shares of ANZA’s common stock, plus 18,800 shares of Series F convertible preferred. As such, as of April 30, 2003, there is no principal or interest outstanding relating to this note. Please see further discussion of the restructuring in Note 17.

(v)  EMB forgave principal and interest totaling $168,006. The balance of $103,404 convertible notes was issued, bearing interest at 10% per annum. The note had a mandatory conversion into ANZA’s common stock on December 15, 2001, which was never enforced. On January 17, 2002, EMB sold this note to AMRES for $40,000 of which $25,000 has been tendered. See Note 13.

NOTE 17 – PROPOSED REORGANIZATION AND ACQUISITION


Proposed Reorganization and Acquisition

On October 7, 2002, Anza issued a press release announcing the execution of a reorganization agreement with Homelife, Inc. On February 27, 2003, due to a number of factors including but not limited to changing market conditions, the failure of Homelife to fulfill one or more of its obligations under the agreement, and the extended period of time it would take to complete the reorganization, Anza notified Homelife of its intent to terminate the Reorganization Agreement. On March 14, 2003, Anza terminated the Reorganization Agreement.

Please also see Note 12, Stockholders’ Equity and Note 9, Notes Payable for certain restructuring transactions involving Preferred Stockholders and Debtholder.

NOTE 18 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Issuance of Preferred Stock of Subsidiary

AMRES authorized 1,250,000 shares of Class A preferred stock on July 18, 2003 . The Class A preferred stock is no par value and accrues dividends at a rate of 10%, per annum. There are no voting, redemption or conversion rights associated with the Class A Preferred Stock. As of April 30, 2003, the Company had no Class A preferred stock outstanding. On July 18, 2003, the Company entered into a transaction to issue 1,000,000 shares of Class A preferred stock in exchange for 66,946 shares of Sutter Holding Company, Inc. ("Sutter") restricted common stock. The value of the Class A preferred stock was determined using the value of the shares of Sutter common stock amounting to $800,000, or $11.95 per share. The Company will account for the Class A preferred stock of its subsidiary by reflecting such preferred stock as a non-current liability outside of stockholders’ equity.
