REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Board of Directors

and Shareholders of  MJWC, INC.



We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of MJWC, Inc., (a development stage company), as of April 30, 2003 and the related statements of operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity for the eleven months ended April 30, 2003 and for period July 17, 2000, (date of inception), to April 30, 2003.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit.


We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United State of America.  Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position MJWC, Inc. as of April 30, 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the eleven months ended April 30, 2003 and for period July 17, 2000, (date of inception), to April 30, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS






NOTE A – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS


MJWC, Inc., (the “Company”), is a British Virgin Island corporation organized on July 17, 2000.

 

The Company is a development stage company.  In March 2003 the Company issued 50,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01, and received $500.  In April 2003 the Company acquired from the Chinese government, for no consideration, the contractual rights to organize and promote the world class Chinese Poker Championship and the world Mah Jong Championship.  The Company is currently developing its strategy, promotional and organizational plans for the aforementioned events.  The Company plans to promote these events worldwide.   Management anticipates to commence operations and exit the development stage in the later part of 2003.


NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Intangible Assets


Intangible assets consist of contractual rights to undertake specific organizational and promotional activities.  These assets were acquired in a nonmonetary transaction; no consideration was given (cash or assets exchanged).  Because the fair market value of the assets received was not determinable they have been recorded at book value, which is zero.


Use of Estimates


Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements.  Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.


NOTE C – SUBSEQUENT EVENT


On May 15, 2003 all of the outstanding shares of the Company were acquired by RTG Ventures, Inc., (“RTG”).  The acquisition was made with the issuance of 22,750,000 shares of RTG’s $.001 par value common stock.  The Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of RTG.

Pro forma financial information


RTG VENTURES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY


INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


BASIS OF PRESENTATION




RTG Ventures, Inc. ("RTG" or the "Company") was incorporated in Florida in September 1998.   The Company is currently inactive.


In May 2003, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of MJWC, Inc. ("MJWC"), a British Virgin Island corporation, which is in the development stage.  MJWC was formed to organize and promote the world Chinese Poker Championship and the world Mah Jong Championship.  The Company also acquired certain intangible assets of Brain Games Asia, Inc. (“BGA”), which organizes and hosts skill games, especially Chinese Chess, in the People’s Republic of China and other Far Eastern countries.


The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information (the "Pro Forma Financial Statements") of the Company is based on the consolidated historical financial statements of RTG Ventures, Inc. adjusted to give effect to: (i) the MJWC Acquisition and (ii) the assets acquired from BGA.


The Pro Forma Financial Statements were prepared to illustrate the estimated effects of the transactions. The Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet gives effect to the transactions as if it had occurred on February 28, 2003. The Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended February 28, 2003 gives effect to the transactions as if it had occurred on June 1, 2002.


The pro forma adjustments are based on assumptions that management believes are reasonable. The Pro Forma Financial Statements do not purport to represent what the results of operations or financial position of the Company would have been had the transactions in fact occurred on such dates nor do they purport to project the results of operations or financial position of the Company for any future period or as of any date. The Pro Forma Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of RTG and the related notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-QSB for the period ended February 28, 2003, and the financial statements of MJWC and related notes thereto included within the Form 8-K/A.


The transactions will be accounted for as a purchase business combination for the MJWC acquisition and as an asset acquisition for the BGA transaction. Under purchase accounting, the total purchase cost will be allocated to the intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values. The excess, if any, of the purchase cost over the fair market value of the net assets acquired would be allocated to goodwill. However, under the terms of the agreement between RTG and MJWC, the fair market value of assets acquired is equal to the par value of the common stock issued. Thus, no goodwill will be recorded.  The pro forma allocation represents the Company's preliminary determination of purchase accounting adjustments based upon available information and certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable. The actual allocation of the purchase cost and its effect on the Company's results of operations and financial position may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts included herein.

                 OPERATIONS ADJUSTMENTS


Amortization of Intangible Assets


Intangible assets consist of contractual rights to organize and promote events.  No amortization has been recorded, since operations have not yet commenced and the assets have not been placed in service.


NOTE B – LOSS PER SHARE


The pro forma weighted-average number of shares outstanding is equal to the historical number of weighted-average shares outstanding, 5,208,000 shares, increased by 26,475,000 shares representing the effect of issuing shares to the former owners of MJWC and, for the acquisition of the intangible assets from BGA.


NOTE C – PRO FORMA INCOME TAXES


At February 28, 2003, the company had an interim net operating loss. A 100% valuation allowance has been established to reserve for the deferred tax assets arising from the net operating loss since there is no assurance that its benefit will be realized in the future.  Accordingly, there is no income tax benefit presented in either the pro forma consolidated balance sheet or the pro forma consolidated statement of operations.
