PART I

Item 1. Description of Business.

This annual report contains forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "will", "should", "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, including the risks in the section entitled "Risk Factors", that may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements 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, performance or achievements. 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.

Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

In this annual report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars. All references to "CDN$" refer to Canadian dollars and all references to "common shares" refer to the common shares in our capital stock.

As used in this annual report, the terms "we", "us", "our", and "Spectre" mean Spectre Industries, Inc., unless otherwise indicated.

Business Development During Last Three Years

Spectre Industries, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 13, 1986 under the name Abercrombie, Inc. On June 6, 1995, our name was changed to Spectre Motor Cars, Inc. We changed our name to Spectre Industries, Inc. on November 6, 1997. In December 1997, we retained the services of I.S. Grant & Company, Ltd. to assist in exploring opportunities in the automotive after-market.

In June 1998, Mr. Ian S. Grant, President of I.S. Grant & Company, was appointed to serve as our President and Director. Mr. Grant assisted us with the acquisition of our 100% owned subsidiary, Grant Automotive Group, Inc., an Ontario corporation ("GAG"), from Grant Brothers Sales, Ltd. ("GBS"). Mr. Grant was an officer, director and shareholder of both GBS and our company at the time. As part of a Management Services Agreement entered into concurrently with that transaction, GBS received an aggregate of 450,000 shares. Through his ownership interest in GBS, Mr. Grant holds a beneficial interest in those shares.

We acquired all of the shares of GAG pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement, dated January 1, 2000, from GBS, a Canadian manufacturers' representative of automotive parts. The business of GAG consisted of GBS's traditional automotive division and heavy-duty division, consisting of the representation of approximately 53 manufacturers of parts used in the automotive after-market industry. As part of this transaction, we entered into the Management Services Agreement with GBS to provide managerial, sales and office support services to GAG for a term of five years. The Management Services Agreement provides GBS with a strong incentive to operate GAG efficiently and successfully. Further, it was clear that raising additional capital for our company would be difficult until GAG had been overseen and operated by our company for a substantial period of time.

On December 11, 2002 we entered into an agreement (the "Agreement") for the disposition of all of the shares of our wholly owned subsidiary GAG back to GBS (the "Sale"). A condition subsequent to the Agreement is that we receive shareholder approval for the Agreement at a meeting to be called for that purpose. We must obtain the

- 4 -

approval of a majority of the shareholders represented in person or by proxy at the special meeting for the proposed disposition of the shares.

Our Current Business

Through GAG, we operate as a manufacturers' representative for manufacturers of products for the automotive parts after-market industry in the wholesale market within Canada. GAG acts as sales agent to wholesale distributors of after-market automotive parts. It does not sell to mass retail merchandisers that sell many products both related and unrelated to the automotive industry. GAG has expanded its representation business to include software developers who have created products directly applicable for use in this market. In general, GAG is compensated by manufacturers for its services on a commission basis.

In order to operate GAG, we compensate GBS with a commission pursuant to the Management Services Agreement. To operate our non-GAG activities, we entered into an agreement with I.S. Grant & Company whereby the services of Mr. Ian S. Grant are provided to us. These activities include the evaluation of acquisitions, ongoing corporate financing and reporting requirements, supervision of GBS's management of GAG, as well as our other activities. Mr. Grant is paid solely by I.S. Grant & Company for services rendered to us.

In an effort to diversify Spectre's business operations, on September 4, 2001, Spectre founded Auto Photo Kiosk GmbH ("APK"), a limited liability corporation under the laws of Germany, together with three other shareholders: Joachim Zweifel EURO6,500 (13%), Gerhildt Voigtlaender EURO6,500 (13%) and Vending Concept GmbH EURO10,000 (20%). Spectre paid EURO27,000 (approximately US$24,519) for a 54% interest in APK. Pursuant to a shareholder's agreement dated July 5, 2002 (the "APK Agreement"), Spectre acquired without paying a premium, the 26% of the capital of APK for EURO13.000 (approximately US$12,736) from two of the four shareholders of APK, Joachim Zweifel and Gerhild Voigtlaender, both residing in Germany. Spectre also took over two shareholder loans as part of the agreement. Each loan amounting to EURO18.453,60 (approximately US$18,079) for a total of EURO36,907.20 (approximately US$36,159), with no accumulated interest; from the selling shareholders Zweifel and Voigtlaender. Spectre now owns 80%, and Vending Concept GmbH, a Swiss corporation, continues to own the remaining 20% of the share capital of APK.

Business of APK

APK was incorporated in September 2001 as a service company to operate instant photo booths and related products, in major public access areas, primarily in Germany.

APK's existing customers are government and municipal agencies, malls and shopping centres. APK currently has 16 instant photo booths installed. The end users are individuals who go to the photo booths for photos to use in forms of personal identification (such as passports, driver's licences, personal identification, etc.) APK's photo booths produce photos using digital technology, and require no photo processing chemicals.

The locations for installation of a photo booth are made available by APK's customers who provide the locations for the photo booths. APK remunerates its customers, the location provider, through a revenue sharing arrangement of approximately 30-44% of the net revenues (gross revenues less 16% value-added-tax), generated by each installed photo booth, or alternatively through a fixed rental rate. The length of the contracts for the location rentals vary from one year (contracts with written termination three months prior to expiration) up to 10 years.

Of the 16 instant photo booths that are installed, 11 are leased from EFS Business Consult GmbH & Co. Hora OHG in Germany under two lease agreements at a price of EURO12,271 plus 16% V.A.T. Both lease agreements have the same terms, and are for a period of 36 months with an automatic extension of an additional 24 months. The terms of the lease agreements are such that during months 1 through 36, APK pays a fixed lease payment of EURO300 per month per machine, plus the applicable 16% V.A.T. Additionally, there is a variable lease payment component in months 1 through 36 that is payable annually, beginning December 31, 2003 (applicable for the period from August 2002 to the end of December 2003). This is an amount that is based upon net revenues less costs (i.e. sales, service & maintenance). Upon extension of the lease agreement, in months 37 through 60, APK's lease payment is completely variable. The payment will be based upon a value that is in the middle of a range, which is based upon three

- 5 -

calculations: (1) 25% of the monthly net revenues per photo booth, (2) 2.5% of the purchase price (EURO12,271 x EURO 306.78 x 24 months per machine), and (3) 4% of the purchase price (EURO12,271 x EURO490.84 x 24 months per machine). The lease agreements assume there will be a residual value at the end of the extension period (60 months). This is estimated to be approximately EURO250-EURO500 per machine.

The remaining five machines are directly owned by APK, having been purchased at a cost of EURO14, 271 plus 16% V.A.T. per booth. Of the instant photo booths that are installed, 4 are located in shopping centres and 12 are located in various city government buildings.

APK currently has only one full time employee and expects to hire more employees as required.

Significant Customers

Until the Sale of GAG is approved, we represent approximately 53 manufactures to sell to approximately 1,000 wholesale customers located in Canada. 15.8% of our sales are represented by the sales of products on behalf of one manufacturer. Of the customers to whom we sell products on behalf of manufacturers, none account for in excess of 10% of our sales.

Principal Markets for the Marketing of Our Services

The North American Automotive After-market

The automotive aftermarket is a significant sector of the United States economy. It employs 3.7 million people. This industry encompasses all products and services for light and heavy-duty vehicles after the original vehicle purchase, including replacement parts, accessories, lubricants, appearance products and service repairs, as well as the tools and equipment necessary to make the repair. The service repair market includes all parts, chemicals and accessories as well as labour required for the repair or maintenance of cars and light trucks.

The automotive aftermarket is an increasingly complex and competitive business that is undergoing profound change. Industry consolidation over the past decade has left fewer market players, while manufacturing improvements in parts quality for new vehicles has contributed to the flattening of aftermarket sales growth.

Factors Affecting the Automotive Aftermarket

Based on our experience, we believe that the state of the North American economy directly impacts the automotive aftermarket. During economic expansions, consumer demand increases for durable and non-durable goods including automotive aftermarket products. In recessionary periods, however, consumers delay vehicle purchases and postpone routine maintenance for existing vehicles, which creates falling demand for aftermarket products. During the then subsequent economic recovery, demand for aftermarket products and services increases.

Improvements in new vehicle technology and higher quality parts and components have lengthened replacement cycles and contributed to slower growth in service repair sales. According to AIA Canada, the expertise, diagnostic tools and parts necessary to repair computerized vehicles as well as closed systems used by vehicle manufacturers have led to a shortage of automotive technicians and shifted some repairs away from independent repair facilities to OEM-trained personnel at dealerships. New vehicle technology and changing population demographics such as the ageing, wealth and time constraints of the population have decreased the number of retail consumers, capable of or willing to tackle heavy repairs and contributed to a shift in light DIY repair.

Instant Photo Booth Market

Our instant photo booths and related products are installed in major public access areas in Germany.

Employees

With the exception of our directors and officers, we have no direct employees. We are managed primarily by Ian S. Grant pursuant to the Consulting Agreement with I.S. Grant & Company dated June 1, 1998. I.S. Grant & Company is a management consulting business controlled by Mr. Grant. Under the Consulting Agreement, Mr. Grant is obligated to provide 80% of his business time to our business operations for period of 5 years.

Competition

Our competitors include other representative agencies in Canada and the United States, as well as a variety of Internet based companies. We expect competition from companies using the Internet as a marketing and distribution tool in the automotive after-market to increase in the future. Direct on-line competitors include online parts sellers and vendors of other component based products. Indirect competitors include companies who may offer component parts as an extension to their existing product lines as well as manufacturers and retail vendors of parts and accessories, including large specialty parts sellers that have significant brand awareness, sales volume and customer bases. Additionally, traditional "brick-and-mortar" companies have built e-commerce sites.

For the APK operation, according to available industry information, our largest competitor is FotoFix GmbH, a subsidiary of Photo-Me International PLC, who have approximately 1800 instant photo booth installations in the German market.

RISK FACTORS

Much of the information included in this annual report includes or is based upon estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". Such forward-looking statements include any projections or estimates made by us and our management in connection with our business operations. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions, or other future performance suggested herein. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.

Such estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements" involve various risks and uncertainties as outlined below. We caution readers of this annual report that important factors in some cases have affected and, in the future, could materially affect actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in any such estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". In evaluating us, our business and any investment in our business, readers should carefully consider the following factors.

There are certain risks inherent in the proposed sale of GAG and specifically risks inherent in the manner in which we are to receive the consideration for the sale.

The following factors should be carefully considered by our shareholders in regards to our Sale of Grant Automotive Group, Inc. to Grant Brothers Sales, Ltd.:

"Penny Stock" Rules

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our company's securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors." The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require that a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of, our common stock.

Limited Operating History In Providing Services to the Automotive After-market and Instant Photo Booth Industries

On January 1, 1999 we commenced the operation of our current business in the auto-motive after market. On September 4, 2001 we commenced the operation of our current business in the instant photo booth market. As such, we have a limited operating history on which to base an evaluation of our business and prospects. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development. Some of these risks and uncertainties relate to our ability to:

- attract and maintain a large base of manufacturers and customers;

- establish and maintain strategic alliances with manufacturers and service providers in the automotive after-market industry;

- establish and maintain relationships with key location providers for our instant photo booths;

- respond effectively to competitive and technological developments;

- build an infrastructure to support our business;

- effectively develop new and maintain existing relationships with manufacturers and service providers in the automotive after-market industry; and

- attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.

We cannot be sure that we will be successful in addressing these risks and uncertainties and our failure to do so may impair our ability to capture market share and generate revenues. In addition, our operating results are dependent to a large degree upon factors outside of our control, including the general strength and viability of the automotive after-market industry and the acceptance of our instant photo booths in the German market.

Many of Our Competitors Have Greater Resources And Better Name Recognition

Many of our competitors are substantially larger than us and have significantly greater financial resources and marketing capabilities than we have, together with better name recognition. It is possible that new competitors may emerge and acquire significant market share in the automotive after-market. Competitors with superior resources and capabilities may be better able to utilize such advantages to market their services better, faster and/or cheaper than we can.

Increased competition from future or existing competitors in the instant photo booth market or automotive after-market will likely impair our ability to establish and maintain market share. If we are unsuccessful in generating and maintaining a sufficient base of manufacturers and service providers in the in the automotive after-market who utilize our services, it is unlikely that we will be able to generate sufficient revenues to sustain operations. In addition, if we are unsuccessful in establishing and maintaining a sufficient number of instant photo booths in profitable locations, it is unlikely that we will be able to generate sufficient revenues to sustain operations

We lack working capital and due to the losses incurred since inception, our stockholders' deficiencies and lack of revenues, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to the losses incurred since inception, our stockholders' deficiency, and lack of revenues.

We have not generated sufficient revenues to cover our operational expenses and do not anticipate doing so in the near future. If our business does not meet our intended income goals, we will require additional financing. If we are not successful in obtaining additional financing by the end of 2003, we may be required to reduce operations to a sustainable level until any such financing is obtained, or sufficient revenues are generated to sustain operations.

- 9 -

There can be no assurances that additional equity or other financing will be available at all or available on terms acceptable to us.

Our ability to continue in business in part depends upon our continued ability to obtain financing. There can be no assurance that any such financing would be available upon terms and conditions acceptable to us, if at all. The inability to obtain additional financing in a sufficient amount when needed and upon acceptable terms and conditions could have a materially adverse effect upon us. Inadequate funding could impair our ability to compete in the marketplace and could result in our dissolution.

We have a history of net losses and a lack of established revenues, and as a result, we expect to incur our net losses in the future.

We have had a history of losses and expect to continue to incur losses, an may never achieve or maintain profitability. We have incurred losses since we began operations, including a total comprehensive loss of approximately $654,716 for the year ended December 31, 2002. As of December 31, 2002 we have an accumulated deficit of approximately $11,890,146.

Dependence Upon Relationships With Key Manufacturers

Our future success depends upon our ability represent manufacturers and service providers in the automotive after-market industry.

We have a limited number of relationships with manufacturers and service providers in the automotive after-market., and rely significantly upon the personal contacts of our President, Ian S. Grant, to maintain our existing relationships and to develop new relationships. Our success depends significantly on our ability to maintain existing relationships with these manufacturers and service providers and to build new relationships with other automotive manufacturers and service providers. We cannot ensure that we will be able to maintain such relationships or continue to obtain agreements to represent other parties in the industry.

Further, our relationships with manufacturers and service providers in the automotive after-market are nonexclusive, and many of our competitors offer, or could offer, services that are similar to or the same as the services that we offer. Such direct competition could adversely affect our business. Any inability to effectively manage our relationships with manufacturers and service providers in the automotive after-market may result in decreased potential for revenues, which could adversely affect our business.

Risk of Termination of Site Contracts

The contracts pursuant to which we place instant photo booths on site locations that are short-term, ie. one year "evergreen" contracts that are easily terminated by either party. There can be no assurance that contracts to place instant photo booths will not be terminated at any time. The termination of a contract or other arrangement with a provider of multiple sites, would significantly reduce our number of auto photo kiosk installations and limit access to prime site locations in the future. Such a termination could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Dependence on a Single Product; Rapid Technological Change

Going forward we will derive the majority of our revenues from the operation of our instant photo booths or instant photo booths. The digital technology incorporated by our instant photo booths is characterized by rapid technological change, new products and services, evolving industry standards and changing client preferences. Our success will depend, in significant part, upon our ability to make timely and cost-effective enhancements and additions to the auto photo kiosk technology and to introduce new products and services that meet customer demands. We expect new products and services to be developed and introduced by other companies that compete with our products and services. The proliferation of new digital photographic technology may reduce demand for our instant photo booths. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in responding to these or other technological changes, to evolving industry standards or to new products and services offered by our current and

- 10 -

future competitors. In addition, we may not have access to sufficient capital for our research and development needs in order to develop or acquire new products and services.

Disruption in Manufacturing and Repair; Inability to Manufacture or Service Instant Photo Booths

The supply, manufacture technical updates and servicing of the instant photo booths is provided exclusively by Vending Concepts GmbH. We are dependent on this one supplier for the provision, repair and servicing of the instant photo booths. Our reliance on this supplier, as well as industry supply conditions generally, subject us to various risks, including the possibility of a shortage or a lack of availability of instant photo booths, key components, quality control problems, increases in component costs and reduced control over delivery schedules, any of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. In situations where we are unable to rectify supply or quality problems associated with our instant photo booths costly delays could result. Although we believe that our supplier has current manufacturing capabilities to enable it to produce sufficient instant photo booths for our purposes through fiscal 2003, there can be no assurance that this will be adequate for unanticipated future growth.

Uncertain Ability To Achieve, Manage Or Sustain Growth

It may be necessary for us to grow in order to remain competitive. Our ability to grow is dependent upon a number of factors including, but not limited to, our ability to hire, train and assimilate management and other employees, the adequacy of our financial resources, our ability to identify and efficiently provide new services as may be demanded by our customers in the future and our ability to adapt our services to accommodate necessary operational changes. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve such expansion or that we will be able to manage expanded operations successfully. Failure to manage growth effectively and efficiently could have an adverse effect on our ability to acquire sufficient market share and remain competitive.

Dependence Upon Ian S. Grant

Our key personnel is limited at present to Ian S. Grant, our President. The loss of the services of Mr. Grant and other employees, for any reason, may have a materially adverse effect on our prospects. Although we believe that the loss of any of our management or other key employees (apart from Mr. Grant) will not have a material adverse impact upon us, there can be no assurance in this regard, nor any assurance that we will be able to find suitable replacements. In addition, competition for personnel is intense, making it difficult to find highly skilled employees with appropriate qualifications. Furthermore, we do not maintain "key man" life insurance on the lives of any of our management or other of our key employees. To the extent that the services of any key employee of ours becomes unavailable, we will be required to retain other qualified persons. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to employ qualified persons upon acceptable terms.

Volatility Of Stock Price

The trading price of our common stock has been and may continue to be subject to wide fluctuations. Trading prices of our common stock may fluctuate in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. The trading prices of many companies' stocks have recently been at historical highs and reflected price earnings ratios substantially above historical levels. There can be no assurance that such trading prices and price earnings ratios will be achieved again. These broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of the common stock, regardless of our operating performance.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources.

Effect Of Shares Eligible For Public Sale

As of April 1, 2003, there were 20,878,082 common shares issued and outstanding. As of April 1, 2003, there were no shares held in escrow. Sales of a large number of shares could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. Any sales by these stockholders could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

Insider Control Of Common Stock

As of April 1, 2003, directors and executive officers beneficially owned approximately 1,000,000 shares of our outstanding common stock. As a result, these stockholders, if they act as a group, will have a significant influence on all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. Such control may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control.

If plans to phase-out the OTC Bulletin Board are implemented, we may not qualify for listing on the proposed Bulletin Board Exchange or any other marketplace, in which event investors may have difficulty buying and selling our securities

We understand that in 2003, subject to approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission , the NASDAQ Stock Market intends to phase-out the OTC Bulletin Board, and replace it with the "Bulletin Board Exchange" or "BBX". As proposed, the BBX will include an electronic trading system to allow order negotiation and automatic execution. The NASDAQ Stock Market has indicated its belief that the BBX will bring increased speed and reliability to trade execution, as well as improve the overall transparency of the marketplace. Specific criteria for listing on the BBX have not yet been finalized, and the BBX may provide for listing criteria which we do not meet. If the OTC Bulletin Board is phased out and we do not meet the criteria established by the BBX, there may be no market on which our securities may be included. In that event, shareholders may have difficulty reselling any of the shares they own.

Item 2. Description of Property.

We lease 1,000 square fee of office space at 260 East Esplanade Unit 6, North Vancouver British Columbia. The rent is approximately $6,840 annually ($570 per month). We do not own or otherwise lease any other real property. GAG operates in the space owned by GBS located at 1860 Gage Court, Mississauga, Ontario.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

We know of no material, active or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this annual report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this prospectus, particularly in the section entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 6 of this annual report.

Our consolidated financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

DISPOSITION OF GAG

We developed the business model for GAG during the 1998-1999 period, at which time we forecasted a strong acquisition rate of automotive agencies that were similar to GAG. However, we are of the view that this model no longer presents significant profit opportunities for Spectre. This is in large part because the rate of customer and supplier consolidation and attrition has increased since 1998 and in addition there are fewer eligible agency candidates for acquisition. Given that there are fewer such acquisition candidates, and there are fewer customers and suppliers in the automotive after-market industry, it is no longer reasonable to assume that GAG can build a viable North American sales agency network as previously forecasted. We are of the view that sales agencies are being marginalized as manufacturers consolidate. Based on the Automotive Aftermarket Industry Association ("AAIA"), the number of manufacturers sales agents registered with the AAIA has declined from 329 in June 2000 to 281 in November 2002. We have acquired only one additional agency, Bigoni-Stiner & Associates of Seattle, Washington. However, after extensive investigation and conducting due diligence on two other agencies, we have not acquired any further agencies. We believe that there are no viable agency candidates for acquisition at this time.

- 13 -

In addition, the slower than expected rate of adoption of electronic/on-line procurement systems have been detrimental to GAG's ongoing profit potential. Given the foregoing factors, our expectations for any material profits from GAG were limited, and was unlikely to change in the foreseeable future.

However, we remain of the view that electronic commerce will be a viable industry in the future for the automotive after-market industry, even though the rate of adoption has been slower than previously forecasted. As a result, even if the Sale is approved, GBS will continue to joint venture directly with Spectre in the marketing and sales representation of Spectre's e-commerce initiatives such as Turbo Spark, in conjunction with DST/MacDonald. Our recent exclusive distribution agreement with DST/Macdonald for the distribution of their proprietary on-line parts procurement software product, "Turbo Spark", is a good opportunity to continue to utilize the GAG sales force in a low risk setting with potentially substantial returns. As a result, we will receive commission income on revenue earned from the sale of Turbo Spark to Canadian customers.

We initially acquired GAG from GBS on January 1, 2000 for $500,000 and as part of the acquisition entered into a management services agreement with GBS for the operation of GAG. We now propose to sell to GAG to GBS for $1.00 and 33% of GAG's net cash flow for the fiscal years 2004, 2005 and 2006. In addition, we are to provide management services to GBS for marketing and sales representation, for which GBS will pay us four equal instalments of $50,000 on December 31 in the years 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005. We have received the first instalment of $50,000, which is being held in trust pending shareholder approval for the Sale.

We believe that the consideration that we are to receive for the Sale of GAG to GBS, which consists of the net cash flow payments and payments for the provisions of management services as discussed above, is appropriate given the following factors:

    1. GAG does currently represent the profit opportunity that it did at the time that we acquired it, for the reasons discussed above.
    2. We will retain what we believe is a key source of the value of GAG, being the e-commerce initiatives that have been developed, and more specifically the Turbo Spark initiative in conjunction with DST/MacDonald.
    3. Although the net cash flow payments that we may receive are indeterminate at present, the consideration also consists of the $200,000 that we will receive for the provision of management services to GBS.
    4. Under the current management services agreement with GBS, we only receive the first $50,000 out of GAG's net cash flow, with the next $100,000 being payable to GBS and the balance, if any, being distributed 47.5% to us and 52.5% to GBS. Given these revenue sharing restrictions, by having the consideration for the Sale include a portion of the net cash flow of GAG, this will not be materially different from how we are currently compensated out of GAG's net cash flow. For example, should GAG generate a net cash flow of $200,000, under the current arrangement we would receive $73,750, or approximately 37%. Under the proposed arrangement we would receive $66,667, representing 33%.

We did not consult or retain an independent advisor, or obtain a fairness opinion, in making a determination of the fairness of the proposed Sale. As a result, while our directors are of the view that the consideration for the Sale is fair and appropriate in the circumstances given the factors discussed herein, we cannot provide any assurances in this regard. Further, we did not seek any other potential purchasers for GAG. As a result, a third party may have been willing to purchase GAG on more favourable terms than those proposed for the Sale.

We were of the view that GBS represented the only viable purchaser of GAG, given that GBS has operated GAG from the time that we acquired GAG, pursuant to the management services agreement discussed above, under which GBS has provided managerial, sales and office support services to GAG. Further, GAG shares the representation of certain manufacturers with GBS, as GAG is basically comprised of the traditional automotive and heavy duty parts divisions of GBS. In light of this relationship, and our contractual obligations under the management services agreement which has a term of five years, we determined that it would be unlikely that a third party would realistically express any interest in acquiring GAG.

- 14 -

Under the terms of the Agreement, GBS will pay us $1.00 for the shares of GAG. GBS has agreed to contract Spectre for four years to provide management services to GBS pursuant to the joint venture agreement for the marketing and sales representation of our e-commerce initiatives to the automotive aftermarket. GBS will pay Spectre four equal instalments of $50,000 on December 31 in the years of 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005. We have received the first instalment of $50,000, which is being held in trust pending shareholder approval. In addition, GBS will pay to us 33% of GAG's net cash flow and this will be distributed to us for the fiscal years of 2004, 2005, and 2006. The eligible portion of the net cash flow payment will be due on June 1.

Our Board of Directors has unanimously approved the Sale of GAG to GBS as being in the best interests of Spectre, and recommends that our stockholders approve the transaction. Specifically, the Sale has been approved and is recommended by our independent director, Peter Schulz Von Siemens.

Mr. Ian Grant, our President, Chief Executive Officer and our other director and a shareholder, is also a director and shareholder of GBS. Mr. Grant holds 20% of the issued and outstanding common shares of GBS. GBS holds an aggregate of 450,000 shares of our common stock. Mr. John Grant, the President of GBS, is the cousin of Ian Grant. Some of those factors that we considered in support of the proposed Sale are:

Some of the potentially detrimental factors that relate to the proposed Sale are:

If the Sale receives shareholder approval, we will focus our business operations on APK, providing for the purchase, sale distribution and rental or operation of automated photo kiosks and related products in major public access areas primarily in Germany.

Overview

Prior to our disposition of GAG, our primary business has been acting as a manufacturers' representative for products in the automotive after-market industry through GAG, our wholly owned subsidiary. The majority of our revenues have been derived from commissions earned by GAG on the sales of such automotive products. However, for the year ended December 31, 2002, GAG has been accounted for as a discontinued operation, although the majority of our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2002 were generated through GAG. The following discussion relates both to the discontinued operations of GAG and the operations of Spectre and its other operating subsidiary, APK.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Year ended December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001

Revenues

Gross revenue for the Spectre and APK operations for the year ended December 31, 2002 was $174,066, of which $50,000 is revenue generated as a result of the provision of management services to GBS arising from the disposition of our subsidiary GAG, compared to $3,158 for the year ended December 31, 2001. The increase was primarily as a result of increasing our ownership interest in APK and having more instant photo booths installed and operating.

The operations of GAG have been accounted for as discontinued operations. Gross revenue for GAG for the year ended December 21, 2001 was $1,222,215 compared to $1,079,500 for the year ended December 21, 2001.

Expenses

General and administrative expenses attributable to Spectre and APK were $238,650 for the year ended December 31, 2002 and $258,687 for the year ended December 31, 2001. The increase in expenses was as a result of higher operating costs associated with APK due to additional expenses associated with the expansion of the APK operations. Costs of sales for Spectre and APK increased to $87,567 for the year ended December 31, 2002, as compared to $4,235 for the year ended December 21, 2001. This increase in costs of sales was as a result of our acquisition of more automated photo booths.

General and administrative expenses attributable to the discontinued operations of GAG were $186,302 for the year ended December 31, 2002 and $70,086 for the year ended December 31, 2001. The increase in expenses was as a result of higher technical support costs for GAG's line of automotive digital testing equipment. Costs of sales for GAG increased to $1,024,664 for the year ended December 31, 2002, as compared to $969,172 for the year ended December 21, 2001, although the gross margin increased from $110,328 for the year ended December 21, 2001 to $197,551 for the year ended December 21, 2002. The increase in costs of sales was as a result of marginally increased sales of automotive after-market products during the period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Year ended December 31, 2002

We had an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2002 of $11,890,146. Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2002 was $654,492, compared to $500,938 for the year ended December 31, 2001. The increase in the net loss is primarily attributable to the loss from the disposal of our subsidiary GAG of $263,361, which is primarily comprised of the one time write off of the good will associated with GAG given its disposition. For the year ended December 31, 2001 the discontinued operations of GAG generated a net income of $37,355, as compared to net income of $4,733 for the year ended December 31, 2002.

- 16 -

Financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2002 consisted of proceeds of $99,974 from the issuance of shares of common stock. We did not receive any proceeds from financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2001.

During the year ended December 31, 2002, our principal capital requirements have been the funding of continued operations. Our net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2002 was ($385,914) compared to net cash used in operating activities of $413,309 for the year ended December 31, 2001. Our cash position at December 31, 2002 was $51,433 compared to $337,336 at December 31, 2001. The decrease was due to accounting for the disposition of GAG. At December 31, 2002 we owe notes payable to related parties totalling $17,152, which are due on December 31, 2003.

GBS has agreed to contract Spectre for four years to provide management services to GBS pursuant to the joint venture agreement for the marketing and sales representation of our e-commerce initiatives to the automotive aftermarket. GBS will pay Spectre four equal instalments of $50,000 on December 31 in the years 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005. The first payment of $50,000 is being held in trust pending shareholder approval for the sale of GAG. This payment has been accounted for as consulting revenue received from a related party. In addition, GBS will pay to us 33% of GAG's net cash flow and this will be distributed to us for the fiscal years of 2004, 2005 and 2006. The eligible portion of the net cash flow payment will be due on June 1. GBS will reimburse us for $32,683 in payments that we have made to Bigoni-Stiner on behalf of our subsidiary GAG, as part of the sale of GAG to GBS. This receivable will bear interest at 6% and will be due on demand.

Our capital requirements are difficult to plan in light of the pending and proposed sale of GAG and our current strategy to expand our customer base for the automated photo booth operations of APK. Since our inception, we have been dependent on investment capital as an important source of liquidity. Our operations presently are generating negative cash flow, and we do not expect positive cash flow from operations in the near term. We need to secure additional working capital in the short-term in order to sustain our operations and execute our business plan. It is our intention to raise sufficient funds necessary to carry our company through to positive cash flow and profitability. Management projects that we may require an additional $200,000 to $250,000 to help fund our ongoing operating expenses and working capital requirements for the next twelve months.

There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. We are pursuing various financing alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due.

Future Operations

We have suffered recurring losses from operations. The continuation of our company as a going concern is dependent upon our company attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital. Management's plans in this regard is to raise additional capital through an equity offering. The financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to the recovery and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should our company discontinue operations.

Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses noted above, in their report on the annual consolidated financial statements of or the year ended December 31, 2002, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as the continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further financing and achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.

There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. As noted herein, we are pursuing various alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will be unable to conduct our operations as planned, and we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due. In such event, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations.

GBS has agreed to contract Spectre for four years to provide management services to GBS pursuant to the joint venture agreement for the marketing and sales representation of our e-commerce initiatives to the automotive aftermarket. GBS will pay Spectre four equal instalments of $50,000 on December 31 in the years 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005. The first payment of $50,000 is being held in trust pending shareholder approval for the sale of GAG. In addition, GBS will pay to us 33% of GAG's net cash flow and this will be distributed to us for the fiscal years of 2004, 2005 and 2006. The eligible portion of the net cash flow payment will be due on June 1.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board finalized FASB Statements No. 141, Business Combinations (SFAS 141), and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). SFAS 141 requires the use of the purchase method of accounting and prohibits the use of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS 141 also requires that we recognize acquired intangible assets apart from goodwill if the acquired intangible assets meet certain criteria. SFAS 141 applies to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for purchase business combinations completed on or after July 1, 2001. It also requires, upon adoption of SFAS 142, that we reclassify the carrying amounts of intangible assets and goodwill based on the criteria in SFAS 141.

SFAS 142 requires, among other things, that companies no longer amortize goodwill, but instead test goodwill for impairment at least annually. In addition, SFAS 142 requires that we 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. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should be tested for impairment in accordance with the guidance in SFAS 142. SFAS 142 is required to be applied in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized at that date, regardless of when those assets were initially recognized. SFAS 142 requires us to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test six months from the date of adoption. We are also required to reassess the useful lives of other intangible assets within the first interim quarter after adoption of SFAS 142. The impact of the adoption may result in a write-down of goodwill and the impact on the financial position and results of operations may be material. As there we have no intangibles and no other intangibles recorded, there is no impact on the adoption of SFAS 142 for intangible assets.

In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board finalized FAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. FAS 144 addresses accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, including the disposal of a segment of business. FAS 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with earlier application encouraged..

In June 2002, FASB finalized FAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. FAS 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." The principal difference between this Statement and Issue 94-3 relates to its requirements for recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity. This Statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under Issue 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as defined in Issue 94-3 was recognized at the date of an entity's commitment to an exit plan. A fundamental conclusion reached by the Board in this Statement is that an entity's commitment to a plan, by itself, does not create a present obligation to others that meets the definition of a liability. Therefore, this Statement eliminates the definition and requirements for recognition of exit costs in Issue 94-3. This Statement also establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liability. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a

- 18 -

material impact on our financial position and results of operations. FAS 146 is effective for exit and disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.

In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board Issued Statement No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123", ("SFAS 148"). SFAS 148 amends FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123") and provides alternative methods for accounting for a change by registrants to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation. Additionally, SFAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require disclosure in the significant accounting policy footnote of both annual and interim financial statements of the method of accounting for stock-based compensation and the related pro-forma disclosures when the intrinsic value method continues to be used. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2002, and disclosures are effective for the first fiscal quarter beginning after December 15, 2002. We will continue to use the intrinsic model method.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our consolidated financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financials.

Revenue Recognition

Through GAG we provided sales and service support in specified territories. We received a commission based on the net sales, less returns and adjustments, of merchandise sold by the manufacturer to its customers operating in specified territories. The commission revenue was recognized on an accrual basis in the period to which the manufacturers' sales relate. We also recognized revenue from our subsidiary, APK when the services have been provided and the money is collected from the photo machines.

Expenses

Prior to December 31, 2002, we had utilized the personnel, including management, sales and service, and office facilities, including space, systems and supplies, of GBS to service our customers and reimbursed GBS for all direct costs attributed to those customers.

Principles of Consolidation

For our foreign subsidiaries, GAG, the functional currency has been determined to be the Canadian dollar and for APK, it is the Euro. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated at period end exchange rates prevailing during the period. The resultant cumulative translation adjustments to the assets and liabilities are recorded as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Exchange adjustments resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income (loss).

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, "Statements of Cash Flows," cash flows from our foreign subsidiaries are calculated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are recorded at cost. Major additions and improvements are capitalized. Minor replacements, maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful life of the assets are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is determined using the straight-line method over the useful lives, primarily for 3 years, the photo kiosks have a useful life of 5 years.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

 

Spectre Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Board of Directors
Vancouver, British Columbia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Spectre Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and the related consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company'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 of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial position of Spectre Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's deficit in working capital, and recurring losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 11. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

b. Basic Loss Per Share - Continuing Operations (Continued)

The computation of basic loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period of the consolidated financial statements. Fully diluted loss per share calculations are not presented as any stock equivalents are antidilutive in nature. The Company has no outstanding common stock equivalents as of December 31, 2002

c. Provision for Taxes

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely that not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Net deferred tax assets consist of the following components as of December 31, 2002 and 2001:

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

c. Provision for Taxes (Continued)

At December 31, 2002, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $4,739,000 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2002 through 2022. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2002 consolidated financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carryforwards may be limited as to use in the future.

d. Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

e. Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

f. Concentrations of Risk

Cash

The Company maintains cash in various Swiss, German and Canadian accounts occasionally these amounts exceed insured limits.

Customers

The Company's former subsidiary, Grant Automotive Group, represents approximately 53 manufacturers and sell to approximately 1,000 wholesale customers located in Canada. 15.8% of our sales are represented by the sales of products on behalf of one manufacturer. Of the customers to whom we sold products on behalf of manufacturers, none accounted for in excess of 10% of our sales.

g. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 145 - On April 30, 2002, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 145 (SFAS 145), "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." SFAS 145 rescinds both FASB Statement No. 4 (SFAS 4), "Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt," and the amendment to SFAS 4, FASB Statement No. 64 (SFAS 64), "Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements." Through this rescission, SFAS 145 eliminates the requirement (in both SFAS 4 and SFAS 64) that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect. However, an entity is not prohibited from classifying such gains and losses as extraordinary items, so long as it meets the criteria in paragraph 20 of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions. Further, SFAS 145 amends paragraph 14(a) of FASB Statement No. 13, "Accounting for Leases", to eliminate an inconsistency between the accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. The amendment requires that a lease modification (1) results in recognition of the gain or loss in the 9 financial statements, (2) is subject to FASB Statement No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate," if the leased asset is real estate (including integral equipment), and (3) is subject (in its entirety) to the sale-leaseback rules of FASB Statement No. 98, "Accounting for Leases: Sale-Leaseback Transactions Involving Real Estate, Sales-Type Leases of Real Estate, Definition of the Lease Term, and Initial Direct Costs of Direct Financing Leases." Generally, FAS 145 is effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 145 will have a material effect on its financial performance or results of operations.

SFAS No. 146 - In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities" (SFAS 146). SFAS 146 addresses significant issues regarding the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs that are associated with exit and disposal activities, including restructuring activities that are currently accounted for under EITF No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." The scope of SFAS 146 also includes costs related to terminating a contract that is not a capital lease and termination benefits that employees who are involuntarily terminated receive under the terms of a one-time benefit arrangement that is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred-compensation contract. SFAS 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002 and early application is encouraged. The provisions of EITF No. 94-3 shall continue to apply for an exit activity initiated under an exit plan that met the criteria of EITF No. 94-3 prior to the adoption of SFAS 146. The effect on adoption of SFAS 146 will change on a prospective basis the timing of when the restructuring charges are recorded from a commitment date approach to when the liability is incurred. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 146 will have a material effect on its financial performance or results of operations.

g. Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

SFAS No. 147 - In October 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 147 "Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions - an amendment of FASB Statements No. 72 and 144 and FASB Interpretation No. 9" (SFAS 147). SFAS 147 removes acquisitions of financial institutions from the scope of both Statement 72 and Interpretation 9 and requires that those transactions be accounted for in accordance with FASB Statements No. 141, Business Combinations, and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Thus, the requirement in paragraph 5 of Statement 72 to recognize (and subsequently amortize) any excess of the fair value of liabilities assumed over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired as an unidentifiable intangible asset no longer applies to acquisitions within the scope of this Statement. In addition, this Statement amends FASB Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, to include in its scope long-term customer-relationship intangible assets of financial institutions such as depositor- and borrower-relationship intangible assets and credit cardholder intangible assets. Consequently, those intangible assets are subject to the same undiscounted cash flow recoverability test and impairment loss recognition and measurement provisions that Statement 144 requires for other long-lived assets that are held and used. SFAS 147 is effective October 1, 2002. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 147 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

SFAS No. 148 - In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure"(SFAS 148"). SFAS 148 amends SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. SFAS 148 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2002. The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of SFAS 148 will have on its results of operations and financial condition.

h. Revenue Recognition

Under the terms of an agreement, the Company, through GAG, provided sales and service support in specified territories. The Company received a commission based on the net sales, less returns and adjustments, of merchandise sold by the manufacturer to its customers operating in specified territories. The commission revenue was recognized on an accrual basis in the period to which the manufacturers' sales relate. The Company also recognized revenue from its subsidiary, Autophotokiosk (APK) when the services have been provided and the money is collected from the photo machines. The Company sold GAG and Bigoni as of December 31, 2002. The Company has entered into a consulting agreement with GAG effective December 31, 2002, where in the Company will be paid for consulting services. The Company earned $50,000 in 2002. The remaining term of the agreement is for 3 years to be paid $50,000 per year on December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005.

i. Expenses

Prior to December 31, 2002, the Company had utilized the personnel, including management, sales and service, and office facilities, including space, systems and supplies, of Grant Brothers Sales, Limited, to service its customers and reimburses Grant Brothers Sales for all direct costs attributed to those customers.

j. Presentation

All amounts are reported in United States Dollars.

k. Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001 include those of Spectre Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (Spectre), its 54% subsidiary Autophotokiosk (APK), its wholly-owned subsidiary, Grant Automotive Group, Inc. (GAG) and its 51% owned subsidiary, Bigoni-Stiner & Associates, Inc. (Bigoni). In July 2002, the Company purchased an additional 26% of APK. On December 31, 2002, the Company sold GAG and Bigoni. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

For the Company's foreign subsidiaries, GAG, the functional currency has been determined to be the Canadian dollar and for APK, it is the Euro. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated at period end exchange rates prevailing during the period. The resultant cumulative translation adjustments to the assets and liabilities are recorded as a separate component of stockholders' equity.

Exchange adjustments resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income (loss). Such amounts are immaterial for all years presented.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

k. Principles of Consolidation (Continued)

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, "Statements of Cash Flows," cash flows from the Company's foreign subsidiaries are calculated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

l. Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are recorded at cost. Major additions and improvements are capitalized. Minor replacements, maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful life of the assets are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is determined using the straight-line method over the useful lives, primarily for 3 years, the photo kiosks have a useful life of 5 years. Property and equipment consisted of the following:

Photo kiosks

$75,422

Office equipment

1,765

Accumulated depreciation

(17,854)

 

 

 

$59,333

Depreciation expense from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 was $23,317 and $2,964, respectively.

m. Advertising

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 was

$1,426, and $-0-, respectively.

n. Foreign Currency Translation

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into United States dollars at the period and exchange rate. Non-monetary assets are translated at the historical exchange rate and all income and expenses are translated at the exchange rates prevailing during the period. Foreign exchange currency translation adjustments are included in the stockholders' equity section.

o. Stock Options

The Company applies Accounting Principles Board ("APB") 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations in accounting for all stock option plans. Under APB 25, compensation cost is recognized for stock options and warrants granted to employees when the option/warrant price is less than the market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

o. Stock Options (Continued)

FASB Statement 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"), requires the Company to provide proforma information regarding net income and net income per share as if compensation costs for the Company's stock option plans and other stock awards had been determined in accordance with the fair value based method prescribed in SFAS No. 123. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock award at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions. The U.S. Treasury rate for the period equal to the expected life of the options was used as the risk-free interest rate.

Under the accounting provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 would have been un-changed from the reported net loss.

NOTE 3 - COMMON STOCK TRANSACTIONS

On December 22, 2002, the Company issued 222,222 shares of common stock for cash. The cash amount of 99,974 was received in July 2002.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY RECEIVABLES

Consulting receivable

$82,683

At the time of the sale of GAG back to GBS, the Company entered into a management services agreement wherein the Company will provide marketing and sales representation for GBS. GBS will pay the Company four equal installments of $50,000 on December 31, 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005. The first installment of $50,000 is being held in trust pending shareholder approval at its annual meeting.

The reimbursements of payments to Bigoni-Steiner arose from Spectre making payments to the former owners of Bigoni-Steiner on behalf of GAG. Since GAG was sold effective December 31, 2002, GAG owes back to Spectre amounts paid on behalf of GAG. The receivable will bear interest at 6.00%, is unsecured and due upon demand.

NOTE 9 - SEGMENT REPORTING

At December 31, 2002, the Company had one reportable segment: photographic services performed in photo kiosks. The Company's other previous segment of automotive parts sales had been sold at December 31, 2002 and has been classified as discounted operations.

NOTE 10 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In December 2002, the Company's Board of Directors decided to sell GAG and its wholly-owned subsidiary Bigoni to Grant Brothers Sales (GBS). The decision to sell was based on, among other items, the low profit capability of automobile parts sales, as well as the Limited Growth Potential of GAG. The Company believes that the photo kiosks business provides for a better business model. The consideration for the sales was $1. Additionally, GBS will pay the Company 33% of GAG's net cash flow (as defined in the management services agreement) and will be distributed to the Company for the fiscal years of 2004, 2005, and 2006. No payments under the net cash flow are guaranteed. The Company no longer has any control over GAG. The Company's president is also an owner of GBS. The Company has accounted for the sale as having occurred on December 28, 2002, because control was transferred to GBS and the shareholders are expected to ratify the sale.

SPECTRE INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2002 and 2001

NOTE 11 - GOING CONCERN

The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company does not have cash or other material assets, nor does it have an established source of revenues to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. It is the intent of the Company to obtain additional financing through equity offerings or other feasible financing alternatives to fund its ongoing operations. The Company also continues to pursue the development of the operations of its subsidiary, Auto Photo Kiosks, GmbH to cover the Company's working capital needs. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising the needed capital or in its efforts to increase revenues of its subsidiary, Auto Photo Kiosks, GmbH.

NOTE 12 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 28, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with Capital Securities, Inc., whereby the Company is to receive $300,000 in financing bearing interest at 7% interest over two years. The note is convertible at the option of the holder, and is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at $0.25 per share. In addition, each $1,000 of the debenture shall have an attached warrant for the purchase of 4,000 additional shares of the Company's common stock. In total, the debenture is convertible into 1,200,000 shares of common stock and 300 warrants for the purchase of an additional 1,200,000 common shares.

In accordance with APB 14, Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants, and EITF 00-27, Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments, the Company has calculated the beneficial conversion feature of the debt instrument based on the trading price of the Company's common stock on the date of the agreement and the Black-Scholes value of the attached warrants. The warrants had a Black-Scholes value of $0.08 each based on a two-year life, risk free rate of 2.24%, and volatility of 163%.

The computed beneficial conversion feature, of $74,996, will be recorded as a debt discount and will be amortized over the life of the note.

No funds have been received from the convertible debenture.

On April 25, 2003, the Company signed a promissory note for $300,000. Bearing interest at 7.00%, unsecured and due upon demand. No funds have been received from the promissory note.
