NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
Entrust Financial Services, Inc. (The Company) was incorporated on November 8, 1996, under the laws of the State of Colorado as Centennial Banc Share Corporation. The name of the Company was changed to Entrust Financial Services, Inc. as of April 6, 2001. The Company was formed for the purpose of developing and maintaining the business associated with mortgage banking. |
On April 30, 1999 the Company purchased 100% of Entrust Mortgage, Inc., a Colorado corporation, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and is included in the consolidated financial statements. |
The Company, through its subsidiary, Entrust Mortgage, Inc. is engaged in mortgage banking activities in 38 states. The Companys mortgage banking business is principally focused on wholesale and retail residential mortgage origination activities. The Company primarily originates non-conforming mortgage loans, which are loans that do not conform to FNMA, FHLMC, FHA and VA requirements. The principal deviation from such standards relate to the lower documentation standards where there is a lower loan-to-value ratio, although some do not conform because of the size of the mortgage loan. The Companys underwriting guidelines are based upon the underwriting standards established by investors to whom such loans are sold. |
Wholesale loan origination involves the funding by the Company of loans submitted by non-affiliated mortgage brokers. The Company has active contractual relationships with over 600 brokers firms and supports this clientele with traditional telemarketing and a web-based, proprietary automated underwriting system that supports the loan application process 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition, the Company has a regional sales force in Florida, California, Nevada and Colorado supporting the wholesale division. The Company realizes revenue from the sale of such loans to investors for a price greater than the amount paid to the mortgage broker. |
Retail loan origination involves the direct solicitation of realtors, builders and prospective borrowers for the origination of mortgage loans. The Company derives revenues from the loan origination fees and the loan premium fee that is received from the purchaser of the loan. Generally, the revenue is shared on a negotiated basis with loan officers and others who procure the loan and assist in the loan origination process. The financial benefits to the Company of the retail division is both as a source of loans for the wholesale division and as a source of loan fees to improve total profits. |
Companys management monitors the revenue streams of the various products and services. Operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the Companys mortgage banking operation is considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations have been included. Operating results for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the 12 months ending December 31, 2003. |

Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2003
(Unaudited)
Use of Estimates: Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require management to make estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements that affect the amounts reported and disclosed. These estimates and assumptions may change in the future, and future results could differ from these estimates. Areas involving the use of managements estimates and assumptions, which are susceptible to change in the near term, include valuation of loans held for sale and loan loss reserves. |
Loan Loss Reserve: The Companys loan loss reserve can fluctuate from time to time based on managements most current estimate of risk exposure, using past experience and the most available economic circumstances. For 2003, management increased the loan loss reserve to 1/2% of 1% for wholesale loan fundings and provided an additional amount based on the loan default experience. The effect of the change in estimate was a one-time non-cash reduction to the Companys earnings of $1.4 million or approximately $0.55 per share, which is included in operations for the nine months ending September 30, 2003. |
Revenue Recognition: The Company originates all of its mortgage loans with the intent to sell these loans, without retaining any interest in them into the secondary market. The Companys earnings come from fees charged at closing, margins earned by selling loans for a premium and interest paid to the Company on a loan while the Company holds the loan for sale. Loan Origination fees and the direct Loan Origination costs are deferred until the related loan is sold. Margins earned by selling loan are recognized when the purchaser has taken title and assumes the risks and rewards of ownership. Income on all loans is recognized on the interest method. Accrual of interest income is suspended at the time at which collection of an account becomes doubtful. |
Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101), which among other guidance clarified, the Staffs view on various revenue recognition and reporting matters. As a result, effective April 1, 2003, the Company adopted a change in its method of accounting for Loan Origination Fees and Costs. Under the new accounting method, the Loan Origination fees and the direct Loan Origination costs are deferred until the related loan is sold for a premium to a secondary investor. This method of recording revenue is more preferable and consistent with Financial Accounting Standards Board No. 91. |
The implementation of the change has been accounted for as a change in accounting principle and applies cumulatively as if the change occurred at April 1, 2003. The effect of the change was a one-time non-cash reduction to the Companys earnings of $354,289 or approximately $0.14 per share, which is included in operations for the nine months ending September 30, 2003. |
Restricted Cash: The Company has $200,000 in restricted cash set aside in a sinking fund as of September 30, 2003 and is required to make a $100,000 deposit on a monthly basis until the Company has cured its default under the Convertible Promissory Note. |

Loans Held for Sale: Balances include deferred origination fees and costs and are stated at the lower of cost or market value in the aggregate. The market value of mortgage loans held for sale is based on market prices and yields at period end in normal market outlets used by the Company. |
Impact of Interest Rate Fluctuations: Interest rate fluctuations generally have a direct impact on a mortgage banking institutions financial performance. Significant increases in interest rates may make it more difficult for potential borrowers to purchase residential property and to qualify for mortgage loans as well as potentially reduce the number of borrowers who are seeking to refinance their current loan. As a result, the volume and related income from loan originations may be reduced. |
Significant decreases in interest rates may enable more potential borrowers to purchase residential property and to qualify for a mortgage loan as well as potentially increase the number of borrowers who are seeking to refinance their current loan. As a result, the volume and related income from loan originations may increase. However, significant decreases in interest rates may result in higher anticipated loan prepayment activity. |
Reclassifications: Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. There was no impact to net income (loss) in any period. |
NOTE 2 CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
The Company has a Convertible Promissory Note (Note) maturing on March 27, 2005. The interest is payable at 12% per annum, payable monthly, in arrears, and there is a 33% bonus interest payable only upon maturity or prepayment of the Note. However, upon maturity or prepayment of the Note, the Lender has the option of either receiving the additional bonus interest or foregoing the additional bonus interest and converting the Note into common stock at a conversion price of $3.00 per share, subject to price adjustments in certain defined circumstances. The Note is secured by all the assets (e.g. accounts, contracts, intangible assets, furniture & fixtures) of Entrust Mortgage, Inc. In addition, the Company entered into a Pledge Agreement, whereby all the shares of the common stock of Entrust Mortgage, Inc. are held by the lender to ensure timely payment and performance of the obligation. |
The Note contains financial covenants. Beginning in July 2003, the Company was in default under certain financial performance covenants because of its quarterly loss. As a consequence, the Note has been classified as debt due within one year. In accordance with the Note, the Company has deposited $200,000 into the sinking fund as of September 30, 2003 and will be required to make a $100,000 deposit on a monthly basis until the default is cured. The lender also informed the Company that there was a default in certain unspecified representation covenants relating to the Note. The Company disagrees that there has been a default in any representation covenants. |

Finally, the lender has informed the Company that it is not declaring the Note due and payable but is reserving its future remedies. The Company believes that should the note be called the Company has adequate resources to satisfy this obligation. However, in accordance with the Pledge Agreement, the lender can exercise its future remedies and take control of Entrust Mortgage, Inc., the only substantial asset of the Company, at any time, until all defaults are cured. The Company is currently having discussions with the lender to resolve all outstanding issues. However the Company does not know at this time what the outcome of those discussions will be. |
NOTE 3 - WAREHOUSE LINES OF CREDIT |
The Company funds mortgage loan originations using various warehouse lines of credit, which are secured by the mortgage loans funded by the lines. The Notes contain financial covenants and as of September 30, 2003 the Company was in default under certain financial covenants. The Company is currently having discussions with the lender to resolve all outstanding issues. However the Company does not know at this time what the outcome of those discussions will be.

NOTE 5 INCOME TAXES
As of September 30, 2003, the Company had a net operating loss carryfoward for federal tax purposes approximately equal to the accumulated deficit recognized for book purposes, which will be available to reduce future taxable income. The full realization of the tax benefit associated with the carryforward depends predominantly upon the Companys ability to generate taxable income during the carryforward period. Because, the current uncertainty of realizing such tax assets in the future, a valuation allowance has been recorded equal to the amount of the net deferred tax asset, which caused the Companys effective tax rate to differ from the statutory income tax rate. The net operating loss carryforward, if not utilized, will begin to expire in the year 2013. |

Loan Origination Fees increased from $1,541,256 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 to $1,883,346 for the three months ended September 30, 2003. Premium income also increased to $1,512,256 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $1,304,191 for this same period in 2002. The increase is attributable to the Companys wholesale division increased fundings from $51.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2002 to $59.7 million in the same period in 2003. In addition, the Companys retail division increased funding to 26.2 million for the period ending September 30, 2003 compared to $14.0 million for the same period in 2002. The loan volume increased substantially from period to period because of the interest rate environment as individuals continue to refinance their mortgage loans. However, revenue realized on each loan sold is lower for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002.
Interest income increased from $463,467 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 to $498,878 for the three months ended September 30, 2003. This increase was attributable to an increase in overall loan originations and an increase in the average balance of loans held for sale.
Loan Origination Costs increased from $2,250,687 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 to $2,968,024 for the three months ended September 30, 2003. The increase was attributed to the increase in loan origination volume and the continued investment in the expansion of the Companys wholesale organization (sales and operations).
Interest expense increased from $282,807 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 to $568,351 for the three months ended September 30, 2003. This increase was the result of the interest paid and accrued on the $2,000,000 Convertible Promissory Note.

Loan Origination Fees increased from $4,246,688 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 to $4,914,240 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. Premium income also increased to $3,764,202 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $4,031,763 for this same period in 2002. The increase is attributable to the wholesale Division increased fundings from $136.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 to $162.2 million in the same period in 2003. In addition, the Companys retail division increased funding to 68.1 million for the period ending September 30, 2003 compared to $33.9 million for the same period in 2002. The loan volume increased substantially from period to period because of the interest rate environment as individuals continue to refinance their mortgage loans. Revenue realized on each loan sold is lower for the nine months ending September 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. |
Interest income increased from $1,175,576 for the nine months ending September 30, 2002 to $1,374,401 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. This increase was attributable to an increase in overall loan originations and an increase in the average balance of loans held for sale.
Loan Origination Costs increased from $6,012,381 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 to $9,277,924 for the nine months ending September 30, 2003. The increase was attributed to three main factors: increase in loan origination volume, continued investment in the expansion of the Companys wholesale organization, and increase in the loan loss reserve. In addition, during the second quarter the Company charged an additional $1.0 million to the loan loss reserve based upon the loan default experience.
The implementation of the change in revenue recognition has been accounted for as a change in accounting principle and applies cumulatively as if the change occurred at April 1, 2003.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Loan origination increased substantially for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2002. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003 the Company originated $162.2 million in loans held for sale and sold $159.7 million of loans. This compares to the origination of $136.4 million in loans held for sale and the sale of $134.1 million in loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2002.
As a consequence, during the nine months ended September 30, 2003, net cash used in operating activities was $2,192,875 compared to net cash used from operating activities of $4,921,246 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Net cash used in operating activities is impacted primarily by the origination of and proceeds from the sale of mortgage loans held for sale.
Net cash used in investing activities was $276,087 for the period ended September 30, 2002 compared to $107,783 for the period ended September 30, 2003.

Cash flow provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $1,577,772 and cash flow from financing activities for the period ending September 30, 2002 was $5,056,215. This change resulted largely from the fluctuation in warehouse lines of credit.
The decrease in net cash flow from operating, financing, and investing activities was $141,118 for the period ended September 30, 2002 and $722,886 for the period ended September 30, 2003, which primarily reflects the net loss from operations and the decrease in Notes & Debenture Payables.

Cash flow requirements depend on the level and timing of the Companys activities in loan origination in relation to the timing of the sale of such loans. In addition, the Company requires cash flow for the payment of operating expenses, interest expense, and capital expenditures. Currently, the Companys primary sources of funding are borrowings under warehouse lines of credit, proceeds from the sale of loans in the secondary market and internally generated funds.
Liquidity refers to the ability or the financial flexibility to manage future cash flows and fund operations on a timely and cost-effective basis.
The Companys sources of cash flow include cash from premium income on the sale of mortgage loans, net interest income, and borrowings. The Company sells its mortgage loans generally on a monthly basis to generate cash for operations. The Companys uses of cash in the short term include the funding of mortgage loan purchases and originations and purchases of mortgage servicing rights, payment of interest, repayment of amounts borrowed pursuant to warehouse lines of credit, operating and administrative expenses, income taxes and capital expenditures.

The lender also informed the Company that there was a default in certain unspecified representation covenants relating to the Note. The Company disagrees that there has been a default in any representation covenants.
Finally, the lender has informed the Company that it is not declaring the Note due and payable but is reserving its future remedies.
