FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

This report has been prepared based on the information collected from external sources

like databases and official since representatives of the Company were unwilling

to give information.

 

We contacted Juan Sandoval (Controller), but he refused to give any detail by arguing

he had no time to deal with us.

 

Other executives were consulted but they referred not to be authorized to give

information to third-party because of confidential policies. They said Juan Sandoval

was the only person authorized for such purpose.

 

Therefore, in order to complete this report we had to search in databases and official

records where we found the information contained herein, except for the balance sheets

to analyze the real economic and financial situation of this Company.

 

It is worth mentioning that in Panama you could only get financial information from

public companies. Contrarily, private companies are not required to publish its

financial statements, being able to do it voluntarily.

FINANCIAL SITUATION  : UNDETERMINED

Financial situation is considered indeterminate since no accounting elements were

available to assess Subject's results.

 

Based on what we investigated, ONIX TRADING CO. S.A. and its related firms are referred

to as leaders in the distribution of items of clothing of famous designers. Nowadays,

Subject is the exclusive representative for all over Latin America of OSCAR DE LA RENTA

and BEVERLY HILLS POLO.
