Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
a.
Plan of Operation
At present, based on current operations, the Company does not have sufficient cash and liquid assets to satisfy its cash requirements on a monthly basis. While the Company does generate income from sales of functional premixes on a monthly basis, these proceeds are not sufficient to meet the Company's current monthly overhead, which includes the on-going business of the Company, FACT Group, Wall Street Real Estate and two (2) dormant subsidiaries. The Company will require approximately $5,000,000 to cover its anticipated overhead and operational needs, inclusive of inventory requirements, for the upcoming twelve-month period. Revenues generated from operations are expected to contribute $5,250,000 in gross revenues and are expected to be sufficient to meet all operational requirements for the coming twelve (12) months. While the Company has projected gross revenues from its food operations of approximately $5,250,000 over the upcoming twelve (12) months, such projections are subject to numerous factors that are beyond its control. Projected operational costs and overhead of $5,000,000 include approximately $4,450,000 for inventory and premix costs associated with the Company’s functional bakery premix business, and $550,000 in general operating expenses, exclusive of amortization and depreciation expenses, relating to the Company and all of its existing subsidiaries. The Company may be required to raise approximately $300,000 to meet its projected costs should it not be successful in achieving its projected gross revenues. The Company expects that it will be able to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing to meet this need should it be required.
The Company’s budget of $550,000 in general operating expenses includes the expenditure of approximately $150,000 over the next twelve (12) months on ongoing product refinement, technical support, and the development of second and third generation functional bakery premix formulations, including amounts paid to employees and consultants retained for the purposes of providing research and development support.
Included in the cash requirements noted above of $5,000,000 over the next twelve (12) months is an amount of approximately $350,000 with respect to the operations of FACT Group, exclusive of inventory requirements and forecasted costs of goods sold. From the date of acquisition on November 2001 to December 31, 2006, the Company has funded a total of $941,409 (net of associated interest charges) to FACT Group in respect of its ongoing operational expenses.
Should it be required, and if the Company is able to negotiate favorable terms, the Company may look to raise funds in excess of the current cash requirement by way of debt or equity financing in order to accelerate its growth. The Company is currently assessing strategic mergers and/or joint ventures with complimentary businesses in order to enhance and support its current operational objectives.
The Company anticipates that its subsidiary FACT Group will hire an additional one (1) to three (3) employees during the upcoming twelve (12) months should the functional foods business meet projected operational and revenue targets. The Company will also look to retain one (1) additional employee to assist in corporate development and financial operations.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
This current report contains forward-looking statements as that term is defined in section 27A of the United States Securities Act of 1933 and section 21E of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such
3
as "may", "should", "intends", "expects", "plans", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "predicts", "potential", or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity or performance to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity or performance. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Results of Operations
Comparison of quarters ended March 31, 2007 and 2006
For the three month periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 the Company incurred operating losses of $128,448 and $108,321 respectively. Fiscal 2007 results include a substantial increase in revenues generated from the sale of functional bakery premixes from $ 258,400 (2006) to $812,368 (2007) as a result of the addition of a new customer account in the current period, as well as increased sales to the Company’s two key customers. Associated costs of goods sold relating to functional bakery premix sales increased from $203,560 (2006) to $721,316 (2007), reflecting a decline in average net profit from product sales from 21% (2006) to 11% (2007). This decline in gross margin can be attributed to the requirement to offer extremely competitive pricing to certain of the Company’s customers, which has significantly reduced the Company’s gross margins, in order to obtain additional sales volumes and top-line revenue growth. There are no costs associated with the whipped topping in 2007 compared to costs of $11,067 related to disposal of inventory in fiscal 2006. Legal fees increased from $1,244 (2006) to $39,941 (2007) as a direct result of ongoing litigation costs related to an action commenced by the Company during May 2006. Consulting fees increased to $50,622 (2007) from $43,169 (2006) as a result of the need for additional part-time services in order to meet ongoing customer needs. Administrative expenses increased from $43,818 (2006) to $82,852 (2007) predominantly as a result of the expenditure of $35,750 during the current quarter on the commencement of a new marketing and investor relations program.
Depreciation and amortization costs decreased from $63,863 (2006) to $62,328 (2007).
Interest expenses decreased slightly in 2007 as a result of additional reductions to the principal balances of loans owing to related parties during the previous fiscal year, resulting in a reduction to the associated interest expenses.
Figures reported during the three month period ended March 31, 2007, also include a gain on sale of marketable securities totalling $3,986, with no comparable expense during the current period.
Net losses for the two completed fiscal years were $145,979 (2007) and $134,159 (2006) respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Summary of Working Capital and Stockholders' Equity
As of March 31, 2007 the Company had negative working capital of $1,582,460 and negative Stockholders' Equity of $1,852,605 compared with negative working capital of $1,484,649 and Stockholders' Equity of $1,703,126 as of December 31, 2006. The Company’s negative working capital has increased as a result of the reduction of accounts receivable and inventory, reducing the Company’s available cash, as well as an increase to accounts payable.
Liquidity
The Company anticipates it may require up to $300,000 over the next twelve months to fully implement its existing business plan, which includes significant marketing efforts, the continued development and refinement of functional bakery premixes, formulations and products, concepts for development of new product opportunities, manufacturing and distribution of a line of our own master brand food products for specialty channels, expanded management resources and support staff, and other day to day operational activities. The Company may require additional funds over the next three years to assist in realizing its goals should it not achieve anticipated bench marks over the 2007, 2008 and 2009 fiscal years. The amount and timing of additional funds required can not be definitively stated as at the date of this report and will be dependent on a variety of factors. As of the filing of this report, the Company has been successful in raising funds required to meet our existing revenue shortfall for the funding of our operations. Funds have been raised through private loans, equity financing and conventional bank debt, as well as through the sale of certain active and passive investments. The Company anticipates revenues generated from its functional food business will greatly reduce the requirement for additional funding; however, we can not be certain the Company will be successful in achieving revenues from those operations. Furthermore the Company cannot be certain that we will be able to raise any additional capital to fund our ongoing operations.
Sources of Working Capital
During the three months ended March 31, 2007 the Company's primary sources of working capital have come from revenues generated from our functional foods business and the net proceeds from:
*
$41,367 in the collection of certain outstanding accounts receivable due from prior periods; and,
*
$18,326 from the proceeds of sale of marketable securities.
