DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS OVERVIEW We are in the business of acquiring ownership interests in developing companies in a wide range of industries and providing financing and managerial assistance to those companies. We seek to invest in companies that, in our opinion, have the reasonable potential for growth. Our objective is to achieve long-term growth. At the current time, we have one subsidiary, Aqua Xtremes, Inc. which is in the business of manufacturing and marketing a personal watercraft and the rotary engine that drives the jet pump and propels the watercraft. Aqua Xtremes, Inc. in turn has a wholly-owned subsidiary, Xtreme Engines, Inc. At the present time, we own 51% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Aqua Xtremes, Inc. We are in the process of negotiating the acquisition of the remaining 49%. We have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Nacio Systems, Inc. to acquire all of its assets. Nacio Systems and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Interactive Holding Group, Inc. provide centralized information technology services to corporate clients. The acquisition of the Nacio assets is subject to further negotiation leading up to the execution of an Asset Acquisition Agreement. BUSINESS STRATEGY AQUA XTREMES, INC. Aqua Xtremes, Inc, designs, manufacturers, and markets revolutionary water sports equipment. One of its most notable products is the XBoard(TM) a jet-powered personal watercraft that redefines extreme watersports.

The XBoard(TM) design team has created a revolutionary watercraft that combines an innovative hull design and a powerful EPA conforming rotary engine.

Nacio Systems, Inc. provides centralized information technolgoy solutions to corporate clients, supporting their business operations with applications such as e-commerce, content management, software auditing and customer relationship management (CRM).

Nacio's Professional Services and Application Development groups provide customization services to ensure that the applications Nacio delivers are tailored to specific business needs successfully deployed across the customer's enterprise.

Using GASP, companies can remotely audit every computer on the corporate network, and, using GASP's extensive reporting capabilities, compare the results against their owned licenses. This allows companies to control software license and maintenance costs, stay compliant with software license terms, inventory for disaster recovery planning and make informed IT purchasing decisions. Attest will release a new version of GASP, GASP V7.0 in the 2nd quarter of 2005. POWER SKI INTERNATIONAL, INC. In our annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, we described our Memorandum of Understanding, as amended, with PowerSki International, Inc. pursuant to which we and PowerSki were to merge, with Nova being the surviving corporation. Upon completion of further due diligence, we elected not to pursuant the merger any further and made demand upon PowerSki for the repayment of approximately $ 800,000, which we advanced to PowerSki for operating expenses pending the completion of the merger. We sent a demand for payment to Power Ski and have not received a satisfactory response. We have filed an action against PowerSki for the recovery of funds advanced. KADFIELD, INC.

As of December 31, 2004, there were 1,052 shareholders of record for our common stock and a total of 4,981,332 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share of common stock on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders. There are no cumulative voting rights. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available for dividends. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in the net assets remaining after payment in full of all liabilities, subject to the prior rights of preferred stock, if any, then outstanding. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. DIVIDENDS The Company has never paid cash dividends on its common stock. The declaration and payment of dividends is within the discretion of the Company's board of directors and will depend, among other factors, on earnings and debt service requirements as well as the operating and financial condition of the Company. At the present time, the Company's anticipated working capital requirements are such that it intends to follow a policy of retaining earnings in order to finance the development of its business. Accordingly, the Company does not expect to pay a cash dividend within the foreseeable future.

Between January 1, 2004 and October 29, 2004, we issued an aggregate of $260,000 of Convertible Promissory Notes to a select group of seven investors. During fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, we issued 32,000,000 shares of our common stock to our then current President and CEO, Kenneth D. Owen as long term compensation. Each of these transactions is considered exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance upon the exemptions at Section 4(2) and/or 4(6) of said Act. 6 ITEM 6.

We caution that these statements are further qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in our forward looking statements, that these forward looking statements are necessarily speculative, and there are certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those referred to in our forward looking statements. Management's discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------- Year ended December 31, 2004 compared to the Year ended December 31, 2003: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- During 2004 and 2003, the Company has been providing working capital advances toward the development of recreational water sports products. On August 30, 2004, the Company acquired 51% of a dormant company in which further develop these products and a marine engine for use in these products. In the fourth quarter of 2004, the company ceased funding the development of these products to an outside company and expensed the amount it had previously advanced aggregating approximately $723,500 as research and development costs. Accordingly, research and development costs increased by approximately $1,209,700 in 2004. Selling expense also increased by $30,000 in 2004 as a result of the above actions. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $922,900 in 2004 primarily due to the decrease in outside management fees in 2004 of approximately $909,300. With the Company's development of its recreational water sports products, management has spent less effort identifying other business investment and acquisition opportunities. Interest expenses aggregated approximately $35,300 in 2004 compared to $24,800 in 2003. The increase was due to Company borrowing an additional $260,000 under convertible notes payable during 2004. On July 21, 2003 the Company decided to dispose of Kadfield. The disposal was completed on December 31, 2004. The Company realized a gain of approximately $139,500 as a result of the disposal of Kadfield. Kadfield has been accounted for as a discontinued operation and the results of operations have been excluded from continuing operations in the consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. 7 FINANCIAL POSITION & LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES ---------------------------------------------------- As of December 31, 2004 compared to December 31, 2003: ------------------------------------------------------ The Company's total assets of $186,400 as of December 31, 2004 decreased by $659,143 compared to assets as of December 31, 2003 primarily as a result of two factors. During the fourth quarter of 2004, the Company expensed approximately $723,500 of advances as research and development costs resulting in the Company beginning to develop recreational water sports products itself rather than funding an outside company. Also, the Company incurred capital expenditures of approximately $100,600 for equipment associated with its newly created subsidiary. Total current liabilities aggregated $1,042,322 as of December 31, 2004 compared to $1,495,961 as of December 31, 2003. The decrease of approximately $453,600 was a result of the following factors. On December 31, 2004, the Company completed its disposal of Kadfield. The liabilities of Kadfield aggregating approximately $394,000 were assumed by the purchaser of the common stock of Kadfield. During the fourth quarter of 2004, the Company accrued additional professional fees of approximately $152,800 relating to the development of its recreational water sports products. And, the Company raised an additional $260,000 of convertible notes payable in 2004. However, holder of $370,000 of notes payable converted their notes in the Company's common stock. During 2004, the Company received additional advances from a related party of approximately $98,900 for working capital purposes. In the fourth quarter of 2004, payables to related party aggregating approximately $363,200 were exchanged into the Company's preferred stock. Also during the fourth quarter of 2004 the Company received advances under notes payable from the minority shareholder of its 51% owned subsidiary Aqua Extremes and two other individual of approximately $436,500. These advances are to fund the development of the Company's recreational water sports products. The Company frequently has not been able to make timely payments to its trade and other creditors. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had past-due payables in the amount of approximately $149,600. Deferred payment terms had been negotiated with most of these vendors. The Company is also non-compliant with respect to certain federal and state payroll related taxes in the amount of approximately $214,600. As a result, the Company has not been able to continue its research and development activities as planned. The Company is currently seeking sources of working capital financing sufficient to fund delinquent balances and ongoing research and development activities. 8 ITEM 7.

F-11 - F-20 F-1 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTETED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Stockholders Nova Communications Ltd. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Nova Communications Ltd. as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, net capital deficiency, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2004. 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's significant operating losses, working capital deficit, and net capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. As described in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company incorrectly reported the fixed percentage conversion feature of its notes payable of $37,500 as of F-2 December 31, 2004 and $147,000 as of December 31, 2003 and the amortization of the beneficial conversion feature of $184,500 for the year ended December 31, 2004.

F-10 NOVA COMMUNICATIONS LTD. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statement December 31, 2004 1. Business and summary of significant accounting policies ------------------------------------------------------- Business: Nova Communications Ltd. (the "Company" or "Nova") is incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. Business combinations and basis of consolidation: On August 30, 2004, the Company acquired 51% of Realize Development, Inc. in a business combination accounted for as a purchase. Realize Development, Inc. was dormant at the time of acquisition and had no assets or liabilities. The Company paid $1,750 for Realized Development, Inc. which was expensed. Realized Development, Inc. changed its name to Aqua Xtremes, Inc. ("Aqua") in December 2004. Aqua is developing recreational water sports products. Also in December 2004, Aqua formed Xtreme Engines, Inc. ("Engines") and owns 100% of its common stock. Engines is developing a marine engine for use in recreational water sports products. The 2004 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nova and its 51% owned subsidiary Aqua and Aqua's 100% owned subsidiary Engines. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Losses exceed the minority interest in the equity capital of Aqua as of December 31, 2004. Accordingly, losses applicable to the minority interest are charged against Nova as there is no obligation of the minority stockholder to guarantee such losses. If future earnings of Aqua do materialize, Nova will be credited to the extent of such losses previously absorbed. The 2003 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nova and its 100% owned subsidiary Kadfield, Inc. ("Kadfield"). On July 21, 2003 the Company decided to dispose of Kadfield. Kadfield has been accounted for as a discontinued operation and the results of operations have been excluded from continuing operations in the consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. The Company disposed of its common stock of Kadfield effective December 31, 2004. Cash and cash concentrations: For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company and its subsidiaries consider cash equivalents to be highly liquid instruments if, when purchased, their original due dates were within three months. The Company deposits their cash in financial institutions. At various times throughout the year, cash held in these accounts exceeded Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits. The Company has not experienced any losses as a result of these cash concentrations. F-11 NOVA COMMUNICATIONS LTD. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statement December 31, 2004 1. Business and summary of significant accounting policies (continued): -------------------------------------------------------------------- Investments: Investments are accounted for under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS 115"). SFAS 115 requires that all applicable investments be classified as trading securities, available-for-sale securities, or hold-to-maturity securities. The statement further requires that hold-to-maturity securities be reported at amortized cost and available-for-sale securities be reported at fair market value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings but reported in a separate component of shareholders' equity (net of the effects of income taxes) until they are disposed of or sold. At the time of disposal or sale, any gains or losses, calculated by the specific identification method, are recognized as a component of operating results. Equipment: Equipment is carried at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets, which range from five to fifteen years. Impairment of long-lived assets: The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of the asset's balance over its remaining life can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of impairment, if any, is measured based on fair value and charged to operations in the period in which the impairment is determined by management. Stock options and warrants: The Company uses a fair value based method of accounting for stock based compensation to employees. The Company also accounts for stock options and warrants issued to non-employees for services under the fair value method of accounting. Reporting comprehensive income: The Company reports and displays comprehensive income and its components as separate amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity during a period that results from recognized transactions and other economic events other than transactions with owners. Income taxes: Income taxes are provided for on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases and reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities from a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the F-12 NOVA COMMUNICATIONS LTD. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statement December 31, 2004 1. Business and summary of significant accounting policies (continued): -------------------------------------------------------------------- Income taxes (continued): enactment date. The Company provides a valuation allowance for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. Net loss per common share: Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding was 3,582,652 for the year ended December 31, 2004 (2,264,375 for 2003). Convertible notes payable and common stock to be issued are not considered to be common stock equivalents as the effect on net loss per common share would be anti-dilutive. Significant risks and uncertainties: The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management of the Company has made certain estimates and assumptions regarding the collectibility of notes receivable and estimated fair value of investments. Such estimates and assumptions primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts. Reclassifications: Certain 2003 balances have been reclassified in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2004 presentation. 2. Operations ---------- In the last trimester of 2004, Aqua began research and development of recreational water sports products. Funding for research and development has been provided by the minority shareholder of Aqua and other related parties. The Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional capital and debt financing until the products are fully developed, manufactured, and marketed and operations of the Company ultimately achieve profitability, if ever. The consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments relating to the recorded asset amounts, or the amounts of liabilities that would be necessary should the Company not be able to continue in existence. F-13 NOVA COMMUNICATIONS LTD. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statement December 31, 2004 3.

Other accrued liabilities ------------------------- Other accrued liabilities consisted of the following at December 31: 2004 2003 --------------- --------------- Professional fees $ 191,022 $ 38,219 Interest 20,169 6,673 Other - 1,010 --------------- --------------- Total other accrued liabilities $ 211,191 $ 45,902 =============== =============== 5. Convertible notes payable ------------------------- Notes payable are due one year from the date of borrowings plus interest at a rate of 8% per annum and are unsecured. The notes and any unpaid interest may be convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at conversion rates ranging from50% to 75% of the closing bid price of the Company's common stock on the date of conversion. The notes may be converted at the option of the Company, but not before six months, and at the option of the holder, but not before one year from the date of the notes and only if certain events have occurred. The Company accounted for the fixed percentage conversion feature of the notes payable under EITF 98-5, "Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios". Under EITF F-14 NOVA COMMUNICATIONS LTD. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statement December 31, 2004 5. Convertible notes payable (continued) ------------------------------------- 98-5, the beneficial conversion feature is calculated at the difference between the conversion price and the fair value of the common stock into which the debt is convertible at the commitment date. The portion of the proceeds from the note that represents the beneficial conversion feature is allocated to additional paid-in-capital. This debt discount is amortized to interest expense using the interest method over the life of the conversion feature. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company received proceeds of $250,000 under convertible note agreements and computed a beneficial conversion amount of $75,000 (the Company received proceeds of $490,000 under convertible note agreements and computed a beneficial conversion amount of $147,000 in 2003). The Company amortized $184,500 of the beneficial conversion feature during the year ended December 31, 2004. During 2004, holders converted $370,000 of notes and $32,617 of accrued interest into 870,023 shares of the Company's common stock. 6. Prior period adjustment ----------------------- In 2004 and 2003 the Company incorrectly reported the fixed percentage conversion feature of its notes payable of $37,500 as of December 31, 2004 and $147,000 as of December 31, 2003 and the amortization of the beneficial conversion feature of $184,500 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The adjustment resulted in a decrease in previously reported current liabilities by $147,000; an increase of $147,000 of previously reported additional paid-in-capital; and a decrease of previously reported net capital deficiency of $147,000 as of December 31, 2003. The adjustment did not have any effect on previously reported net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2003. The adjustment resulted in a decrease of previously reported current liabilities of $37,500; an increase of $75,000 of previously reported additional paid-in-capital; and an increase in previously reported net capital deficiency of $109,500 as of December 31, 2004 and a decrease in previously reported net loss from operations and net loss of $184,500 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The adjustment also resulted in an increase in previously reported net loss per common share from continued operations and comprehensive loss per common share by $.52 for the year ended December 31, 2004. 7. Notes payable to related parties -------------------------------- Notes payable to related parties are due to the minority stockholder of Aqua and two other individuals. The borrowings are unsecured, non-interest bearing, and due on demand. These individuals have agreed not to demand repayment before April 2006. 8. Other related party transactions -------------------------------- The Company occasionally pays for expenses on behalf of Palaut Management, Inc. ("Palaut").

The long-term payable to a related party reported in 2003 was due to a company related to the President of Nova. The advances were unsecured, non-interest bearing, and due on demand. In December 2004, the Board of Directors agreed to exchange this payable into 200,000 shares of preferred stock of the Company. 9.

Utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards could be limited due to restrictions imposed under Federal and state laws upon a change in ownership. The amount of the limitation, if any, has not been determined at this time. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As a result of the Company's continued losses and uncertainties surrounding the realization of the net operating loss carryforwards, management has determined that the realization of deferred tax assets is uncertain. Accordingly, a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax asset amount has been recorded as of December 31, 2004 and 2003. 13. Recently issued pronouncements ------------------------------ In December 2004, the FASB issued a revision to SFAS 123, "Share-Based Payment, an amendment of FASB Statements Nos. 123 and 95," that addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a Company receives employee services in exchange for either equity instruments of the Company or liabilities that are based on the fair value of the Company's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. This statement would eliminate the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using the F-19 NOVA COMMUNICATIONS LTD. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statement December 31, 2004 13. Recently issued pronouncements (continued) ------------------------------------------ intrinsic method and generally would require that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method and recognized as expense in the consolidated statement of operations. The effective date of this standard is for periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company previously adopted the fair-value-based method of valuing share-based payments and management does not expect any further impact of this new standard to have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. In July 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued a draft abstract for EITF Issue No. 04-08, "The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings per Share" ("EITF 04-08"). EITF 04-08 reflects the Task Force's tentative conclusion that contingently convertible debt should be included in diluted earnings per share computations regardless of whether the market price trigger has been met. If adopted, the consensus reached by the Task Force in this Issue will be effective for reporting periods ending after December 15, 2004. Prior period earnings per share amounts presented for comparative purposes would be required to be restated to conform to this consensus and the Company would be required to include the shares issuable upon the conversion of its convertible notes payable in the diluted earnings per share computation for all periods during which the convertible notes payable are outstanding. Management does not expect the implementation of this new standard to have a material impact on its computation of diluted earnings per share. In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29", by eliminating the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A non-monetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. SFAS No.151is effective for a fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005, and implementation is prospectively. Management does not expect the implementation of this new standard to have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. F-20
