CFI-WORLDCO

CFI-WORLDCO, INC.

THE COMPANY

CFI/Worldco Resources, Inc., has over 50 years of combined experience in International and Domestic Finance and has enjoyed noteworthy success over the past several years. We believe this is due to a highly developed sense of discipline and ability to adapt to the changes of a World-wide economy.

C.F.I. has traditionally operated within the lower to middle-market commercial finance industry through Four successful business divisions:

COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE FINANCE

C.F.I.'s Commercial Real Estate Division specializes in procuring credit oriented real estate financing which includes commercial properties, credit anchored retail, hotels/hospitality properties, multi-family/residential complexes and construction and development.

We serve the commercial real estate industry and have positioned ourselves as a major financial resource for middle market companies. This is essential for the real estate market of the 90's where many other lenders have exited from commercial real estate finance. C.F.I. arranges financing Domestically and Internationally and prefers transactions in the $5 million to $100 million dollar range, although we may participate with larger amounts on a restricted basis.

Commercial lending standards are such that proven cash flows are heavily weighed to determine the financial stability of the project. In addition, future cash flows are taken into consideration to assess the potential value of that project. This is evaluated on discounted basis to derive the Net Present Value.

While other conventional lenders are absent from the commercial real estate market, C.F.I. remains committed to offering reliable service-oriented solutions in proven real estate niches.

CORPORATE FINANCE

C.F.I.'s Corporate Finance Division services clientele in a broad range of industries: Services, manufacturing and process, distribution, industrial, consumer products and retail. The financing programs are typically utilized for the following: Refinancing, Management Buy-Outs, Leveraged Buy-Outs (LBO's), Recapitalization, Corporate Divesture and Mergers and Acquisitions. Through our extensive affiliations with various Securities Firms we can arrange for Private Placements of Equity or Debt, Venture Capital, Initial Public Offerings (IPO's) and Reverse Mergers into a public entity. These services can be performed on both an international and domestic level.

Underwriting standards are such that existing and projected cash flows must surpass the required debt service coverage that will be placed into your particular project. Prospective clients should be well established in business with experienced management teams and participate in specific and known industries or products.

INTERNATIONAL FINANCE

Over the past few years, a Global economy has emerged and is reshaping the structure of modern-day capitalism and finance. The International Finance Division has also emerged with this rapid pace of change and is actively pursuing the developments and building of countries other than our own. We strongly believe that tapping into this market will assure continued success and will evolve into unlimited opportunities for those who take action abroad.

Through years of experience, our team has developed strong relationships with several key Institutions over-seas, providing a continuous and on-going source of funds for land development, infrastructure, and business concerns in Asia, Europe, Africa, South America and the Caribbean.

Using creative financial strategies, we are able to offer several financial programs tailored to your specific financial needs and project. These programs are designed to create a safe investment vehicle for Institutional Investors to partake in, diversifying their capital base. The structure of financing used is designed to provide a strong capital base for your venture and to strengthen cash flows to provide continued growth, expansion and the ability to grasp new opportunities as they present themselves. In essence, we provide assistance in building promising futures for businesses and entrepreneurs seeking to start, grow or expand their resources.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FINANCE

When you ship products or provide services, you sometimes have to wait up to 90 days or more to be paid by your clientele. With the factoring system we use, we can provide a turn key solution to your short-term capital requirements. Whether you are across the street or across the Nation, we are able to procure instant funds for your receivables. There simply is no faster or easier method for obtaining needed cash.

We specialize in working with smaller firms and start-up companies whose cash flow problems stem from rapid growth or under-capitalization. The larger order, the need to expand or purchase new equipment, or the unexpected cash squeeze are normal growing pains for a company on the path to financial stability.

We do not require long term contracts - you can factor for a week or for several years, and you can factor one or several accounts receivable. This form of financing strongly improves credit ratings, minimizes bad debt and improves collection and accounts receivable administration. Factoring establishes a continuous source of working capital, secures operating cash on a flexible and elastic basis and increases sales through credit extension. Factoring is one of the strongest financial tools to facilitate the financial needs of a new, thriving company.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU ON YOUR FINANCING NEEDS AND IDEAS FOR CONTINUED SUCCESS.

In today's current market, many companies and individuals are in dire need of capital, whether it is for start-up or expansion purposes. Yet, in today's economic and financial environment, raising capital has become very sophisticated and competitive, making it difficult for even the most credible and established businesses.

First you need a comprehensive business plan and presentation incorporating all facets of the business including the legal, financial, industry, marketing, and operational knowledge which outlines a realistic opportunity for success.

Most industry professionals usually answer that question with "it will take between 60 to 180 days". A more realistic answer is "that's a good question".

The process of raising capital is not as easy as it is perceived to be. In today's financial marketplace, a comprehensive evaluation and due diligence phase must take place uncovering all the details and logistics behind your project including your management team. This alone can encompass between 30 to 120 days. However, this phase of the process will determine the viability of the project, its potential, the downside risk, and outline any contingencies. The most important element to the amount of time that this takes place is the level of preparation that has been completed prior to starting the process. It is very crucial to understand that the methods of raising capital several years ago have changed considerably and may not work in today's financial environment.
