(FORMERLY HAPS USA, INC.)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Organization
PGMI, Inc., formerly HAPS USA, Inc. (PGMI or the Company), on December 9, 2005, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated October 27, 2005 (the Agreement) by and among HAPS USA, Inc. (HAPS) and PGMI, Inc. acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of PGMI in exchange for an aggregate of 97,059,998 shares of HAPS Class E Preferred Stock. Each share of Class E preferred stock is convertible into five shares of HAPS common stock, commencing on the date which is three years from the date of their original issuance (or December 9, 2008). As a result of this transaction, PGMI is a wholly-owned subsidiary, and the PGMI stockholders own approximately 91.5% of HAPS voting stock, on a fully-diluted basis. At the time of acquisition, HAPS had no revenues and no assets or liabilities. It was considered a blank-check company prior to the acquisition. The acquisition of PGMI by HAPS will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition, whereby the assets and liabilities of PGMI are reported at their historical cost. The effects of shareholders equity are reported as a recapitalization. No goodwill was recorded in connection with the reverse acquisition. The reverse acquisition resulted in a change in reporting entity of PGMI for accounting and reporting purposes. In March 2006 the Company changed its name from HAPS USA, Inc. to PGMI, Inc.
The unaudited pro forma balance sheet data is not significant because of the lack of operating assets and liabilities of HAPS. The pro forma results of operations, assuming the acquisition was completed at the beginning of the reporting period, would have caused our net losses to increase, but not materially, because of the limited operating losses reported by HAPS.
Business
The Company operates thirteen (13) stores and 4,796 pachinko machines as of March 31, 2006, which offer pachinko (Japanese pinball) gaming entertainment. All stores, except two, are located in the Nagano prefecture. In July 2004 and March 2005, the Company opened its two largest stores with 560 machines each. In July 2005, the Company closed its smallest store which operated 138 machines. The closing did not have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements. In addition, the Company receives income from cigarettes, non-alcoholic beverages and sundry items, as well as one small batting cage and a bowling alley. Japanese law regulates Pachinko gaming and the local police enforce laws. Pachinko gaming is one of the largest business segments in Japan.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Financial Statement Preparation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Refer to the Companys audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2005 included on form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 9, 2005 for additional information.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts that are reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on managements best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may be different from these estimates. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the full fiscal year.

Going Concern Considerations
The Company has incurred losses during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005. The Company has significant amounts of debt and has a high debt to equity ratio. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Management has refinanced certain of its debts to reduce amounts due within 12 months. As a result, as of March 31, 2006, the Company has a working capital totaling $4,047,903 versus a working capital deficit as of December 31, 2005 of $733,857. Furthermore, management has reduced operating expenses in an effort to restore profitability. As a result, the Company generated net income of $161,858 during the three months ended March 31, 2006. Management plans to continue to monitor its operating expenses, as it opens new stores in fiscal 2007. Management believes the Company will continue its growth and generate positive cash flows from operations to fund its daily operations and service its debt obligations. There are no assurances that we will be successful in our plans. No adjustments have been made to the carrying value of assets or liabilities as a result of the uncertainty about obtaining cash required to pay obligations as they come due.
Per Share Information
The Company presents basic earnings per share (EPS) and diluted EPS on the face of all statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed as net 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 issue able through stock options, warrants, and other convertible securities that are exercisable during or after the reporting period. In the event of a net loss, such incremental shares are not included in EPS since their effects are anti-dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2006:
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding - basic |
|
20,338,324 |
|
Effect of convertible preferred stock: |

|
Class A |
|

|
Class E |
|
485,299,990 |
|
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding - dilutive |
|
530,838,579 |
|
The computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2006, includes the effects of Class A and Class E convertible preferred stock. Such amounts were not included in the computation of basic earnings per share since the Class A and Class E convertible preferred stock do not participate in the earnings, dividends or undistributed earnings of the Company. There were no adjustments required to net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 for the computation of dilutive earnings per share.
The following is a table of common stock equivalents for the three months ended March 31, 2005, and the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, that were not considered in the calculation of diluted net loss per share as the effects would have been anti-dilutive.

Bonds Payable
In December 2005, the Company entered into an additional bond agreement with a commercial bank totaling approximately $4,300,000. The bond bears variable interest at approximately TIBOR plus 0.1% and a guarantee fee at 1.1% per annum and is due in seven (7) years. The Company incurred bond commission fees of $239,376, which are amortized over the term of the debt using the effective interest method.
The Companys obligations are collateralized by substantially all of the Companys assets. As a common practice in Japan, the Companys collateral is not allocated to each commercial bank loan. Rather, the commercial banks hold an interest in substantially all of the Companys assets together; there are no first or second position. Upon default of the loans, the Companys assets would be liquidated and the proceeds from the liquidation would be distributed to the commercial banks based on liquidation preference.
In March 2006, the Company entered into a bond agreement with a commercial bank totaling approximately $6,800,000. The bond bears fixed interest at 1.54% and is due in seven (7) years with no collateral. The Company incurred a bond commission fee of $306.000, which is amortized over the term of the debt using the effective interest method.

Convertible Preferred Stock Outstanding
In connection with the reverse acquisition of HAPS, PGMI shareholders received 97,059,998 shares of Class E convertible preferred stock. Since PGMI experienced a change in reporting entity, such shares have been retroactively reflected as outstanding for the periods presented. Each share is convertible into five (5) shares of common stock or a total of 485,299,940 shares. The holders of the Class E preferred stock are not entitled to receive dividends.
In connection with the reverse acquisition, the Company issued 2,121,530 shares of Class A preferred stock for fees to its investment banker in representation of the transaction. Each share of Class A preferred stock is convertible into five (5) shares of common stock. The holders of the Class A preferred stock are not entitled to receive dividends. Management determined the fair value of the underlying common stock to be $0.22 per share or $2,333,683 based on the average of the closing price of the common stock 15 days before and after the announcement of the transaction.

Consistent with the gaming industry, we report our revenues as the net of wagers less payouts. During the three months, our gaming revenues decreased from $6,548,366 in 2005 to $6,536,236 in 2006, a decrease of 0.2%. Payouts as a percentage of wagers is usually increased when new store is opened due to high payout-rate campaign to promote the grand opening, and it is gradually decreased during the first six months after opening to reduce initial opening losses and ultimately achieve profitability. The new store that opened in March 2005 did not have a significant impact on the payout-rate in the three months ended March 2005 because it did not have significant operations during the quarter.
Our gross wagers increased by $400,307 or 0.85% from $47,342,860 for the three months ending March 31, 2005 to $47,743,167 in the three months ending March 31, 2006. The new store that opened in March 2005 contributed $9,461,804 to the increase in wagers, while ten stores decreased their wagers by an aggregate of $4,253,080 as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2005, mainly due to high competition. The impact of the closed store in July 2005 was a decrease of $124,676 in wagers. Total number of pachinko and pachislo machines was 4,796 during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2006, as compared to 4,492 machines during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2005.

Our payouts increased by $412,437 or 1.0% from $40,794,494 for the three months ending March 31, 2005 to $41,206,931 for the three months ending March 31, 2006.

Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2006 were $5,487,781, a decrease of $961,980 or 14.9 % from $6,449,761 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. As a percentage of revenues, our costs in the three months ended March 31, 2006 decreased to 78.2% from 93.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The large contributors to this decrease are reduced overhead costs due to our improved overhead cost management. In addition, a decrease in depreciation expense, which is mainly due to high depreciation expense in fiscal 2005 caused by highly accelerated depreciation in pachinko machines invested to the new store opened in March 2005, while no stores were opened in the three months ended March 2006. Our impairment loss was also decreased in fiscal 2006 since no stores were opened and fewer pachinko machines were purchased and disposed of compared to fiscal 2005. Finally, salaries and wages were decreased due to our improved labor management and the replacement of regular employees with part-time workers according to availability.
Marketing and Advertising Expense
We incurred $210,093 and $346,647 of marketing and advertising expenses representing 3.0% and 5.0% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The higher percentage against the total revenue in 2005 was mainly due to the advertising costs incurred in connection with the opening of our new store in March 2005.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2006 decreased by $238,258 or 20.2% to $942,715 from $1,180,973 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2006 constituted 13.4% of revenues in comparison to 17.2 % for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The decrease in expenses was mainly due to the high volume of advertisement in the three months ended March 2005 for the opening of the new store.
Other Income and Expenses
Interest expense increased by $36,145 to $525,298 in the three months ended March 31, 2006, from $489,153 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, an increase of 7.4%. The increase of interest expense is attributable to an increase in long-term loans and lease contracts used to make improvements to leased properties and acquire equipment in new stores.
In connection with the reverse acquisition, we paid a merger fee by issuing shares of our Class A preferred stock valued at $2,333,683, which was charged to expense. The value was established based on an average of the closing ask price 15 days before and after the announcement of the transaction.

Our interest swap liabilities decreased $495,848 due to a favorable change in the three month TIBOR (Tokyo Inter Bank Offer Rate), and the related gain is included in other income.
Income Taxes
Our provision for income taxes increased by $576,355 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, from a $339,850 benefit to a $236,505 expense. The effective tax rate against income before income tax was 59.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Tax expense incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was calculated for the taxable income earned in Japan using the effective tax rate of approximately 40%. The allowance was taken to fully write off the tax benefit of net operating loss of approximately $2,800,000 incurred in the U.S.A. as of March 31, 2006.
Net Income (Loss)
We generated net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 of $161,858 versus $875,430 of net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2005. This increase in net income can be attributed to an aggregate decline of approximately $960,000 in cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2006, general and administrative expenses and marketing and advertising expenses.

Marketing and Advertising Expense
We incurred $704,988 and $818,327 of marketing and advertising expenses representing 3.8% and 4.8% of revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The higher percentage against total revenue in 2005 was mainly due to the advertising costs associated in opening the new stores.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 decreased by $145,330 or 5.9% to $2,317,378 from $2,462,708 for the nine months ended March 31, 2005.

16
allowance to fully write off the tax benefit of net operating loss of approximately$2,800,000 incurred in USA as of March 31, 2006.
Net Income (Loss)
We generated net loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 of $2,531,871 versus $1,489,174 for the nine months ended March 31, 2005. This increase in net loss can be attributed to the approximate $2,333,000 stock based merger fee charged to expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2006.
Liquidity and Sources of Capital
Cash Flows
During the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, we provided $6,868,852 and $3,204,118 respectively, of cash flows from operating activities. Our cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, included non-cash depreciation and impairment losses aggregating $8,070,266 and $8,057,931 respectively. Our increase in cash generated in the nine months ended March 31, 2006 relates primarily to a decrease in payments to vendors in the nine months ended March 31, 2005.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, we used cash of $7,183,733 and $1,951,761, respectively, on investing activities. During the nine months ended March 31, 2006, we spent approximately $5,611,582 for capital additions mainly purchasing pachinko machines. We also incurred $201,668 and $4,611,646 for property and equipment acquired under capital lease contracts during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2006, we provided cash of $4,916,002 in financing activities. During this period, we borrowed $12,136,985 from five banks, and we repaid debt totaling $5,685,941. We used funds for purchasing pachinko machines and increased working capital. In 2005, we provided cash from our financing activities in the amount of $34,871. We borrowed $9,673,669 and repaid long-term debt of $9,231,650 during the nine months ended March 31, 2005. We repaid $1,511,582 and $331,256 of lease obligations during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Liquidity
As of March 31, 2006, the Company has working capital totaling $4,047,903. We have $7,761,935 in current portion of long term debt to be repaid within one year. We have good relations with our banks in Japan. We believe PGMI will continue its growth and generate positive cash flows from operations to fund its daily operations and service its debt obligations. There are no assurances that we will be successful in our plans. No adjustments have been made to the carrying value of assets or liabilities as a result of the uncertainty about obtaining cash required to pay obligations as they come due. Our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph in their report on our consolidated financial statements ended June 30, 2005, regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern because of these matters.
Our level of indebtedness presents other risks to investors, including the possibility that we may be unable to generate cash sufficient enough to pay the principal of and interest on our indebtedness when due; and that we may not be able to meet tests and covenants of such debt agreements and achieve satisfactory resolution of such non-compliance with the lenders. In such an event, the holders of our indebtedness may be able to declare all indebtedness owing to them be due and payable immediately, and proceed against any collateral securing such indebtedness. These actions could limit our ability to borrow additional funds and would likely have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
17
Critical Accounting Policies
Our significant accounting policies are included in Note 2 of our Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Report. These policies, along with the underlying assumptions and judgments made by our management in their application, have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles
We review the carrying value of our long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that such carrying values may not be recoverable annually. Unforeseen events and changes in circumstances and market conditions and material differences in estimates of future cash flows could negatively affect the fair value of our assets and result in an impairment charge. Fair value is the amount at which the asset could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties. Fair value can be estimated utilizing a number of techniques including quoted market prices, prices for comparable assets, or other valuation processes involving estimates of cash flows, multiples of earnings or revenues. For land impairments, we have used government prefecture estimated fair values, which they use for assessing taxes.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS No. 109) which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the bases used for financial reporting and income tax reporting of recorded assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 109 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We have provided valuation allowances because we feel that certain deferred tax assets generated in the United States will not be recovered through future operations. We must continue to monitor our deferred tax assets in light of recent losses we have incurred.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
Interest swap agreements and the related hedged debt are considered ineffective against changes in the fair value of the debt due to changes in the benchmark interest rates over their terms, as provided by SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. We do not have an established formal risk management policy with respect to the use of derivative instruments, and the related term and notional amounts of the interest swap agreements do not coincide with the debt financed. The fair value of the swaps is carried as an asset or a liability in the consolidated balance sheet and the changes is recorded as a gain or loss to operations. The fair values of PGMIs interest rate swaps are the estimated amounts it would receive or pay to terminate the agreements as of the reporting date as determined by the bank. As of March 31, 2006, the fair value of the outstanding interest rate swap liabilities was $198,520.

ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures need improvement to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the requisite time periods.
In connection with its review of the our consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2005, McKennon, Wilson & Morgan LLP, the Companys independent accountants, advised management of certain significant internal control deficiencies that they considered to be, in the aggregate, a material weakness, including, inadequate staffing and supervision leading to the untimely identification and resolution of certain accounting matters; failure to perform timely reviews, substantiation and evaluation of certain general ledger account balances; lack of procedures or expertise needed to prepare all required disclosures; and evidence that employees lack the qualifications and training to fulfill their assigned functions. McKennon, Wilson & Morgan LLP indicated that they considered these deficiencies to be a material weakness as that term is defined under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A material weakness is a significant deficiency in one or more of the internal control components that alone or in the aggregate precludes our internal control from reducing to an appropriately low level the risk that material misstatements in our financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We considered these matters in connection with the quarter-end closing of accounts and preparation of financial statements as and for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 and determined that no prior period financial statements were materially affected by such matters.
In response to the observations made by McKennon, Wilson & Morgan LLP, we will proceed more expeditiously with our existing plan to enhance our internal controls and procedures, which we believe addresses each of the matters raised by, McKennon, Wilson & Morgan LLP.
