ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

GENERAL OVERVIEW

Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. (“Sparta”“we,”“us,” or the “Company”) is a Nevada corporation.

We only recently began our current business operations. Prior to February 27, 2004, we did not conduct any substantive operations. On February 27, 2004, we acquired the business of Sparta Commercial Services, LLC.

Sparta Commercial Services, LLC is a Delaware limited liability company formed on October 1, 2001. Sparta’s business plan is to provide dealers of powersports vehicles with an alternative source of financing for new and used motorcycles. Since inception, Sparta developed proprietary web-based solutions for back-end processing, financing and leasing of new and used powersports vehicles.  Currently, Sparta offers a private label program, lease and retail installment sales finance contracts to numerous dealerships in powersports industry. Sparta’s business model focuses on select motorcycles (i.e., 600cc and higher), 4-stroke all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), and select scooters. Sparta’s management believes that the emphasis on these products eliminates a number of vehicles that often under-perform due to the demographics of the purchaser and/or excessive depreciation in the market value of certain vehicle models.

Our offices are located at 462 Seventh Avenue, 20th Floor, New York, NY 10018, telephone number: (212) 239-2666. We maintain a website at: www.spartacommercial.com.

OUR ORGANIZATION HISTORY

Our company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 13, 1980 under the name Tomahawk Oil and Minerals, Inc. and engaged in oil and gas exploration activities.

On November 6, 1983, the company changed its corporate name to Tomahawk Industries, Inc.

In 1984, Tomahawk entered the business of installing energy recovery and energy saving devices.

In July 1987, Tomahawk filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U. S. Bankruptcy Code and operated as a debtor-in-possession. The petition for bankruptcy protection was denied. Tomahawk ceased all business operations, liquidated its former subsidiary and abandoned all net assets remaining by April 30, 1988. Tomahawk effectively had no operations, assets or liabilities since its fiscal year ended April 30, 1988 through February 27, 2004.

On February 27, 2004, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, we acquired Sparta Commercial Services, LLC, in a transaction viewed as a reverse acquisition. Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired all of the outstanding membership interests in Sparta Commercial Services, LLC in exchange for the agreement to issue such number of shares of our common stock as would represent approximately 91.75% percent of our outstanding shares. Sparta Commercial Services, LLC also entered into a consulting agreement for business and financial services with Glenn A. Little, the former principal of Tomahawk. The agreement is for a term of one year. Mr. Little received a fee of $100,000 pursuant to the consulting agreement.

As a result of the acquisition, a change in control occurred in the ownership and management of Tomahawk. In connection with the acquisition, the managing member of Sparta, Anthony Havens, was appointed President and Chairman of Tomahawk. The former directors and officers of Tomahawk resigned as of the acquisition date.

On August 25, 2004, we changed our corporate name from “Tomahawk Industries, Inc.” to “Sparta Commercial Services, Inc.”

On September 13, 2004, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada increasing the authorized capital from 200,000,000 to 700,000,000 shares, of which 690,000,000 shares are common stock, par value $0.001 and 10,000,000 shares are preferred stock, par value $0.001.


3


Effective December 27, 2004, pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, the Company's authorized capital was reduced from 700,000,000 shares, of which 690,000,000 shares were common stock and 10,000,000 shares are preferred stock, to 350,000,000 shares, of which 340,000,000 shares are common stock and 10,000,000 shares are preferred stock. In connection with the decrease in authorized capital, the Company effected a 1:200 reverse stock split, with fractional shares paid in cash, followed immediately by a 25:1 forward stock split.

On December 28, 2004, we filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada in connection with its 10,000,000 shares are preferred stock, designating 35,850 shares as Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock.


OUR BUSINESS

We seek to become a specialized consumer finance company engaged primarily in the origination of lease and retail installment sales contracts of new and used motorcycles, scooters, and ATVs. We believe that the market for consumer finance programs for motorcycles and ATVs is underserved by traditional lenders.

We seek to provide both indirect loans and lease financing for motorcycles and ATVs. We intend to be an originator and indirect lender for retail installment loan and lease financing for the purchase or lease of new and used motorcycles, scooters, and ATVs.

Our principal business is to provide financing programs, primarily to purchasers of new and used motorcycles, scooters, and ATVs who meet our credit criteria.

We are developing relationships with vehicle dealers and manufacturers to provide our financing programs to their customers. We also seek to provide motorcycle, scooter, and all-terrain vehicle manufacturers a private label version of our financing programs for their customers.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Sparta’s business model has been designed to generate revenue from several sources:

 
·
Retail installment sales contracts and leases;
 
·
Private label programs for manufacturers and distributors;
 
·
Ancillary products and services, such as private label gap coverage and private label service contracts; and
 
·
Remarketing of off-lease and repossessed vehicles.

Sparta’s management believes that by offering dealers (and their customers) the option of either financing or leasing, Sparta will be able to capture a greater share of the dealer’s business. Additionally, by offering both alternatives, once profitability is achieved, Sparta believes that it will be in a position to achieve greater cash-flow than it could by offering only one of these alternatives because depreciation generated by Sparta’s leasing activities will reduce income tax due on income resulting from Sparta’s retail installment sales contracts.

RETAIL INSTALLMENT SALES CONTRACTS AND LEASES

Retail Installment Sales - Sparta intends to purchase retail installment sales contracts from both franchised and independent powersports dealers who qualify as Sparta Authorized Dealers and/or as Private Label Authorized Dealers under Sparta’s Private Label Programs. Sparta has developed policies and procedures for credit evaluation, collections, insurance follow up, and asset recovery. Sparta imposes strict credit criteria to determine which retail installment sales contract applications to approve. This credit criterion has been developed to be in compliance with the credit criterion required by our lenders. The dealers understand that if they consummate a credit transaction with a buyer on whose application we have given them a conditional approval that Sparta will purchase that contract if it is in full compliance with all terms and conditions of that approval and contained in our dealer agreement.


4


To insure that Sparta’s Credit Evaluation Process and Collateral Guidelines are consistently applied and that the credit/underwriting decision process provides rapid decisioning to Sparta Authorized Dealers and the Private Label Dealers, Sparta has developed a point of sale credit application and contract decisioning system. This system is named “iPLUS” and is structured as an Application Service Provider (“ASP”) and has the capability of providing the dealer with conditional approvals without human involvement seven days a week, twenty-four hours a day. This technology provides quick, consistent credit decisions for our dealer network and reduces the number of credit analysts required, thereby, reducing Sparta’s personnel expense. Depending on Sparta’s arrangement with its lending sources, in the case of consumer finance contracts, Sparta may finance its purchase of the contracts by borrowing from a lending source and pledging the retail finance contracts as collateral for the loan.

All of the installment sale contracts will be secured by qualified, titled motorcycles with 600+cc and higher engines, 4-stroke all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), or select scooters. Customer financing needs are projected to range from approximately $2,000 to $35,000. Contract terms of 24 to 60 months will be offered.

Leases - Sparta intends to purchase qualified vehicles for lease to customers of its Sparta Authorized Dealers and/or Private Label Dealers. While the steps in the leasing process are almost identical to those in the installment sales contract process, the major difference is that when a lease “approval” is transmitted to a dealer, the “approval” describes the terms and conditions under which Sparta will purchase a specific vehicle from the dealer and lease it to the applicant. Unlike an installment service contract which finances a customer’s purchase of a vehicle owned by the customer, the lease contract contains the payment terms and conditions under which Sparta will allow the customer to use (lease) the vehicle, which is owned by Sparta, and also contains a vehicle purchase price option which provides the customer with the right to purchase the vehicle at the lease-end. Depending on Sparta’s arrangement with its lending sources, in the case of leases, Sparta may finance its purchase of leased vehicles by borrowing from a lending source and assigning or pledging the lease and leased vehicle as collateral for the loan. Lease terms range from 24 to 60 months, although most lease terms are either 36 or 60 months. Leases generally have lower monthly payments than retail installment sales contracts because they finance only part of the vehicle with the balance being financed by the lessor. 

PRIVATE LABEL PROGRAMS FOR MANUFACTURERS AND DISTRIBUTORS

Under “private label” financing agreements with the U.S. distributors of major manufacturers of scooters and ATVs, Sparta allows the manufacturer to put its name on Sparta’s finance and lease products, and offer such financing arrangements to its customers. Sparta owns the finance business under these “private label” programs, and derives revenues from sales of the distributor’s product line pursuant to individual finance arrangements with the dealer’s customers. The private label program also expands Sparta’s dealer base by the number of dealerships in the distributor’s chain, thereby generating additional opportunities to sell Sparta’s own financial services to these dealers for their customers interested in non-“private label” covered vehicles.

REVENUE FROM ANCILLARY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

Sparta expects to receive additional revenue related to servicing its portfolio, such as lease acquisition fees, late payment fees, vehicle disposition fees at lease-end, early termination fees, charges for excess wear-and-tear on leased vehicles, and from ancillary products and services.

Sparta is being positioned as a full service organization providing products and services to its dealers that are costly to obtain on an individual dealer basis. Sparta plans to offer the following ancillary products and services:

GAP COVERAGE - Sparta markets its private label gap coverage on a fee basis to customers through dealers. This coverage protects the customer should the vehicle be stolen or wrecked and the holder’s primary insurance is not adequate to cover their payoff to the creditor that holds the lien on the vehicle.

SERVICE CONTRACTS - Sparta offers dealers private label service contract plans for purchased and leased vehicles on a fee basis. Service contracts will be offered to anyone who finances a vehicle, whether financed through Sparta or another source. For a one time, up front fee to the owner or lessee of the vehicle, the service contracts, administered by Interstate National Dealer Services, Inc. (“Interstate”), provide extended service coverage (repair or replacement from 12 to 60 months depending on the contract) for specified engine, drive train and electrical components of the vehicle. The actual service is performed by the originating dealer, which must be pre-approved by Interstate as an “authorized dealer.”

Sparta intends to continue to evaluate additional ancillary products and services and believes that it can create products and services to meet dealers’ needs, creating company brand loyalty in the dealer community and generating other revenue streams.

REVENUE FROM REMARKETING OFF-LEASE AND REPOSSESSED VEHICLES 

RE-LEASING TO ORIGINAL LESSEES - Management intends to commence its re-leasing efforts as early as eleven months prior to the end of the scheduled lease term. Lessees’ options are expected to include: extending the lease, returning the vehicle to Sparta or buying the vehicle at the buy-out option price established at the beginning of the lease. Sparta’s policy requires lessees who wish to return their vehicles, return the vehicle to the originating dealer. If the lessee has moved, then the vehicle should be returned to the Sparta Authorized Dealer closest to the lessee. If this is impracticable, then Sparta will arrange to have the vehicle transported at the lessee’s expense. Sparta plans to offer a 64-month Purchase Plus lease program—a 60-month lease with a low residual value (usually 11% of original price) that the lessee can typically pay off in four or five additional monthly payments at the end of the 60-month lease term.

RETURNED LEASED VEHICLES - When a vehicle is returned to a Sparta Authorized Dealer at the end of the scheduled lease term, the dealer will inspect it for excessive wear and mileage over maximum levels specified under the lease agreement and prepare it for resale/lease. All Sparta Authorized Dealers and all Sparta Private Label Dealers are contractually bound to charge no more than cost plus ten-percent for repairs and to provide free storage for all consignment vehicles. Thereafter, Sparta plans to consign the vehicle to the originating dealer for sale or re-lease to a new party. Should the dealer decline to take the vehicle on consignment, it will be electronically marketed on the Classified Pages of the Sparta web site. Sparta believes the market for used vehicles is significant, and the opportunity to remarket the same vehicle numerous times is a key selling point with prospective dealerships. Sparta believes that using its dealer network in such a manner will result in a better overall economic return on its portfolio as well as strengthen dealer relationships.

REPOSSESSED VEHICLES - All repossessed vehicles are similarly returned to the originating Sparta Authorized Dealer to be reconditioned (if needed) for consignment sale or re-lease in the same manner and conditions as returned vehicles.

SECOND CHANCE EXPRESS - Sparta allows its Authorized Dealers to offer its inventory of returned or repossessed vehicles not only to customers with approved credit applications but, also to customers with less than prime credit. Applicants with low credit scores are evaluated under Sparta’s Second Chance Express Program. This unique finance/lease product is designed to offer a financing program tailored to this non-prime customer. The program allows Sparta to serve those customers who can offset their credit risk with higher down payments. A key benefit of this program to Sparta is that the minimum down-payment requirement is 20% in order to bring the amount financed in line with the current wholesale value of the vehicle. Under the Second Chance Express Program, Sparta pays its dealers a commission on any Sparta inventory vehicle, held on consignment on their “floor” or offered on the Sparta Classified Web Page, for which they arrange a sale or finance.

CREDIT AND COLLECTIONS

POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

Sparta has developed policies and procedures for credit evaluation, collections, insurance follow up, and asset recovery. Sparta imposes strict credit criteria to determine which retail installment sales contracts and lease applications are approved.

CREDIT EVALUATION PROCESS AND COLLATERAL GUIDELINES

To insure that Sparta’s Credit Evaluation Process and Collateral Guidelines are consistently applied and that the credit/underwriting decision process provides rapid decisioning to Sparta Authorized Dealers and the Private Label Dealers, Sparta has worked closely with Teledata Communications, Inc. (“TCI”), a leading provider of interactive credit accessing and decisioning solutions, to develop the iPLUS point of sale credit application and contract decisioning system.

IPLUS (INTERNETPURCHASING LEASING UNDERWRITING SERVICING)

Sparta’s retail installment sales contract and leasing programs are delivered through a proprietary, web-based, credit application processing system. This system is named iPLUS” and is structured as an Application Service Provider (“ASP”) and has the capability of providing the dealer with conditional approvals without human involvement seven days a week, twenty-four hours a day. This system also provides the powersports dealer with system capabilities comparable to those of new car franchises. Sparta believes iPLUS will provide the Sparta Authorized Dealers and Private Label Dealers with a competitive advantage and will increase Sparta’s ability to garner a larger share of the dealer’s business. Although we intend to add additional features, iPLUS is currently being utilized by us.

Major features of iPLUS include:

  ·
100% WEB Browser Based (www.spartacommercial.com)
  · User friendly system
  · No costly software required by the users
  · Operates on any dial-up connection as slow as 28.8
  · Requires Internet Explorer 5.5 or above, Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0 or above, both available at no charge on the Internet
  · Integrated scorecard and decision engine
  · Integrated credit bureau retrieval and review (can access any of the 3 major bureaus)
  · Once application is submitted; decisions in seconds/7 Days a Week /24 Hours a Day
  · Easy to complete customer application
  · Dealer application management
  · Dealer Desking Tool - Profit Manager (Assists dealer in structuring any approved application.)
  · Prints approved customer contract and contract package
  · Captures information in electronic format
  · Complete underwriting documentation and control system
  · Dealer communication
  · Allows the dealer to track the entire decisioning, underwriting, and funding process in real time.

Additionally, this technology provides quick, consistent credit decisions for our dealer network and reduces the number of credit analysts required, thereby, reducing Sparta’s personnel expense.

Sparta has established program guidelines that are an integral function of the iPLUS decision process. These program guidelines establish and clarify credit criteria such as credit tiers, maximum amount financed, term and rate, dealer rate participation, deal structure, buyer profile, credit bureau parameters, budget parameters, and eligible collateral, including maximum loan-to-value ratios for each of its retail installment sales contracts and lease contracts, depending on the applicant’s credit rating and stability. Sparta has developed its own credit rating system by using an empirical score card and then assigning its own rating based on Sparta’s experience. This rating is used as the basis to determine the terms and conditions under which an applicant is approved or declined.

Sparta plans to conduct both applicant credit risk and asset evaluation before approving financing. Sparta’s policy is that it will not finance more than 100% of a vehicle’s retail value, but Sparta may lend an additional 10% above retail value to cover add-ons, extended warranty and other costs. Should the customer seek financing above this threshold, Sparta intends to ask for a down payment from the borrower or lessee to close the gap between selling price and retail value. The size of the down payment will be a function of the applicant’s credit rating, stability, budget, and the value of the underlying asset.

COLLECTION PROCEDURES

Approving retail installment sales contracts and leases that comply with the policies and procedures established by Sparta is just the first step. A principal factor in the success of Sparta’s business model is its ability to track contract and lease performance.


7


Advanced Lease Systems, Inc. (ALS) provides the software Sparta uses to manage its assets, customer base, collections, insurance, and accounting systems. Using a variety of basic and customized reports generated by ALS, Sparta monitors its customers’ compliance with their obligations under retail installment sales contracts or lease contracts. These reports are accessed on a real-time basis by employees of Sparta and are distributed to management personnel for review. The reports include delinquency reports, collection tickler (promises) reports, insurance status reports, termination reports, inventory reports, maturing contract reports, etc.

Sparta requires continuous physical damage insurance on all financed vehicles and continuous liability and physical damage insurance coverage on all leased vehicles. In addition, Sparta is required to be listed as Additional Named Insured and Loss Payee. Continuous insurance is critical, and Sparta intends to quickly repossess a vehicle if coverage lapses. Lapsed or cancelled policies will be covered by a “blanket” VSI insurance policy, which Sparta intends to purchase. Any lapse in insurance coverage for any reason will lead to automatic repossession of leased vehicles.

USING DIVERSIFICATION TO REDUCE PORTFOLIO RISK

Management will reduce portfolio risk not only by carefully screening applicants and monitoring covenant compliance, but also by diversifying its financing activities across credit tiers and Sparta’s list of motorcycle, ATV and scooter models that it will finance or lease.

CREDIT TIERS - Sparta expects that it will maintain a portfolio dominated by A/B credit applicants over C applicants in the ratio of at least 70/30. Management anticipates that it will be able to rebalance its portfolio by training its sales force to work closely with dealerships in their territories to help Sparta maintain its conservative 70/30 target.

Sparta will also be able to manage this ratio by revising the variables in its various programs (terms and conditions under which Sparta will lease vehicles or purchase retail installment contracts), such as minimum income, debt ratios, payment to income ratios, minimum down payment required, acquisition fees (paid by dealer), discounts (paid by dealer), etc.

SPARTA APPROVED VEHICLE MODELS - Advance rates and other credit restrictions will be in effect for certain models and years based on the relevant facts and circumstances.


CERTAIN AGREEMENTS WITH RELATED THIRD PARTIES

We entered into a license agreement, dated as of June 1, 2002, and as amended on December 3, 2003, with American Motorcycle Leasing Corp. Under the agreement, we have a non-exclusive, perpetual right to use American Motorcycle Leasing Corp.’s proprietary operating systems related to consumer credit underwriting procedures, vehicle and vehicle lease value evaluation methods, rental stream collection and insurance tracking policies and procedures. The license fee consisted of $300,000 and 330,433 membership interests of Sparta Commercial Services, LLC, which were subsequently exchanged in connection with the reverse acquisition of Sparta Commercial Services, LLC for 34,256,941 shares of common stock of our company..

We entered into a services agreement, dated as of March 1, 2004, with American Motorcycle Leasing Corp. For a period of three years, American Motorcycle Leasing Corp. is to provide personnel, computer equipment and software, and facilities, in connection with our credit and underwriting activities and our use of the operating systems that we had licensed from American Motorcycle Leasing Corp. In return for such services, we agreed to pay $100,000 by March 1, 2005, and for the time of the personnel utilized at their salary rate at American Motorcycle Leasing Corp.

We entered into a purchase option agreement with American Motorcycle Leasing Corp., an entity controlled by the Company’s president and a significant shareholder, on November 2, 2004 at a cost to Sparta Commercial Services of $250,000. This agreement granted Sparta Commercial Services the right, for a two year period, to purchase portions of a certain portfolio of equipment leases that American Motorcycle Leasing Corp. owns. The portfolio is secured by a first priority security interest in favor of Citibank, N.A. or its assigns. The cost of $250,000 has been charged to operations in fiscal 2005. As of April 30, 2005, payments against this obligation of $81,000 were made. In June, 2005, an additional $20,000 was paid.

MARKET INFORMATION

As reported in the 2003 Annual Statistical Report of the Motorcycle Industry Council, retail sales of new motorcycles have grown steadily from 1991 through 2003. North American registrations of new 600cc and higher motorcycles reached 495,400 in 2004. This represents a 7.1% increase over 2003. Registrations have increased for 13 consecutive years. Retail sales of new and used motorcycles reached $8.8 billion in 2002.

U.S. sales of new ATVs were estimated to be 900,000 units in 2004 with a market value of $1.8 billion and scooter sales approached 60,000 in 2003 and are growing at a 20% annual rate, as reported in All Terrain Vehicle Magazine in the October 11, 2004 edition.


SALES AND MARKETING

Normally, vehicle finance programs are sold primarily at the dealer level, rather than the consumer level. Sparta’s strategy is to develop an in-house direct sales force that will promote Sparta’s products and services to qualified dealers, train them, and provide them with point-of-sale marketing materials. Sparta’s vehicle financing programs are already gaining market acceptance as evidenced by the four Private Label Contracts. This in-house direct sales force will be comprised of a Marketing Group and a Dealer Support Group.

The Marketing Group will continue to work directly with the manufactures and distributors to obtain additional Private Label affiliations and to monitor our competition. The Private Label partners will assist us directly in training the Private Label Dealers. This will be done at the manufacturers/distributors place of business, at industry shows, or with a group of dealers in a common geographic area.

As required we will add additional marketing representatives to our staff. These marketing representatives will be assigned geographic territories. We currently have two marketing representatives and expect to expand the number of marketing representatives.

The Dealer Support Group will accept application packages from dealers that want to be either or both Sparta Authorized Dealers or Private Label Dealers. They will then notify the approved dealers by email that they have been approved and provide them with the required information to process applications and print contracts through iPlus, including a Dealer Sign Up packet. The Dealer Support Group will be available to directly assist dealers by telephone, follow up with dealers on conditional approvals to assist dealers in forwarding the funding packages to us for purchase. This group will also accept all incoming calls from dealers, answering their inquiry or directing them, if necessary, to the appropriate department. We currently have two Dealer Support representatives and expect to expand the number of Dealer Support representatives.

Sparta has built an interactive website (www.spartacommercial.com) for our authorized dealers. iPLUS is accessed through this website by our dealers and allows them to submit credit applications and receive on-line approvals or declines based on current Sparta credit criteria. The Customer Management section of iPLUS enables authorized dealers to track the status of all applicants submitted by their dealership. The dealer is able to review pending, approved, declined and active (funded) applications and contracts they have submitted. This enables the dealer to easily review their business with Sparta and gives Sparta the ability to easily monitor dealer activity at any point in time. The Sparta Loan/Lease Calculator configures both retail installment sales contract and lease payments, simultaneously and instantaneously, allowing dealers to provide their customers with highly accurate payment schedules. In addition, the website provides authorized dealers with access to a PowerPoint presentation that will fully acquaint their staff with the various Sparta financing products and how to sell them.

Authorized dealers are able to advertise both new and used vehicles in the Classified Section of our website, at no cost to the dealer. Sparta plans to use this feature of the website to remarket its own inventory (both repossessed and returned end-of-term vehicles) throughout the country. Sparta’s exclusive “Second-Chance Express” program for customers with a poor or limited credit history was created to help re-market the company’s inventory. Incentives are in place for authorized dealers who sell or lease either a Sparta inventory vehicle at their dealership or one that is at another dealership in our network.

While Sparta does not market or sell directly to consumers, Sparta expects consumers to visit the Sparta website. Sparta has provided a consumer oriented PowerPoint presentation for their review. Additionally, visiting consumers will be able to view Sparta advertising, news and find general information about vehicle makes and models, road rallies, and other areas of vehicle interest. They will also be able to utilize our Dealer Locator to find the nearest authorized Sparta dealer in their neighborhood. Consumers will be able to view the Classified Section of the website and any consumer inquiring about the program will be directed to our nearest authorized dealer.

COMPETITION 

The consumer finance industry is highly fragmented and highly competitive. Broadly speaking, Sparta competes with commercial banks, savings & loans, industrial thrift and credit unions, and a variety of local, regional and national consumer finance companies. While there are numerous financial service companies that provide consumer credit in the automobile markets, including banks, other consumer finance companies, and finance companies owned by automobile manufacturers and retailers, most financial service companies are reluctant to lend to motorcyclists. Customers who approach these lending sources to take out installment loans are often encouraged to pursue personal loans instead.

There are few companies that provide nationwide dealer-based leasing options in the motorcycle industry segment, and these tend to be private label factory programs supporting their own brands. Because of their narrow focus (such as requiring that the equipment be covered by the brand's warranty), these companies have met with limited success.

Independent consumer financial services companies and large commercial banks that participated in this market have withdrawn substantially from the motorcycle loan niche over the past two years or have toughened their underwriting criteria. Sparta believes that those companies may have suffered as a result of compromising their underwriting criteria for the sake of volume. In addition, management believes that our competitors' practice of financing all makes and models of a particular manufacturer results in lower overall portfolio performance because of the poor demographics associated with some of those product lines. The marketplace also includes small competitors such as local credit unions, local banks and a few regional players.

Sparta will compete for customers with commercial banks, savings and loans, credit unions, consumer financing companies, and manufacturers' finance subsidiaries. Additionally, some powersports manufacturers such as Harley-Davidson and BMW have subsidiaries that provide financing.

The more significant competitors of Sparta include: GE Retail Services, Capital One, HSBC/Household Bank, Sheffield Financial/BB&T, Lending Tree, CIT Bank, AIG, and Transamerica. To management’s knowledge, none of these firms offer leases for powersports vehicles.

The largest of these firms, GE Retail Services, markets both directly to dealers in Powersports market and through co-branded private label programs. GE recently has co-branded with Yamaha, Moto Guzzi, Aprillia Brands and other national manufacturers and distributors of Powersports and recreational products such as Coachmen Industries. GE also offers dealer and distributor floor plan financing and private label credit cards.

Capital One markets a product for Capital One Bank, offering consumer direct and dealer indirect consumer contracts to the powersports industry. They offer smaller dealers the ability to have customers apply via the web site affiliate program and larger dealers can go direct to Capital One finance. Capital One recently announced the purchase of Onyx Finance and truly entered the vehicle financing arena with the purchase of Peoples First Finance. Typical terms range from 30 to 60 months with a minimum of individuals approved for a product named “The Blank Check”. Capital One Auto Finance, America's largest online vehicle lender, provides vehicle loans to customers directly via the Internet, as well as through a nationwide dealership network.

While some of Sparta’s larger competitors have vast sources of capital and may be able to offer lower interest rates due to lower borrowing costs, Sparta believes that the combination of management’s experience, expedient service, availability of the lease option and iPLUS give Sparta an advantage over its competitors.

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

In December 2004, we commenced a private placement to raise up to $3,000,000 through the sale of up to 30 units of our securities at $100,000 per unit. Each unit consists of (i) 1,000 shares of series A convertible, redeemable preferred stock and (ii) warrants to purchase 320,513 shares of common stock, exercisable for three years at $0.195 per share. The preferred stock has a stated value of $100 per share, carries a 6% annual cumulative dividend, payable semi-annually in arrears, and is convertible into shares of common stock at the rate of one preferred share into 641 shares of common stock. The private placement is being conducted by a placement agent on a best efforts basis. The units are being offered solely to accredited investors. The units offered have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. We agreed to file a registration statement, at our expense, for the resale of common stock underlying the units within 90 days of the final closing of the private placement. The placement agent is entitled to 10% of the cash proceeds from the private placement and reimbursement for expenses, and warrants to purchase such number of shares of common stock, exercisable for five years at $0.172 per share from the date of issuance, as equals 10% of the number of shares of common stock underlying the preferred stock sold. In transactions with accredited investors deemed exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, from December 2004 through April 30, 2005, we sold 12.25 units for proceeds of $1,225,000, and issued 785,257 warrants to the placement agent. A subscription for 0.05 units was subsequently rescinded. Through July, 2005, we sold an aggregate of 29.95 units for proceeds of $2,995,000. We used the proceeds for working capital purposes.

Between May and July 2004, we sold certain rights to seven accredited investors for aggregate gross proceeds of $585,000 in transactions deemed exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. Pursuant to the terms of the rights, in the event that we conduct a private placement transaction in 2004 utilizing a designated registered broker-dealer as a placement agent, the rights automatically convert into the securities sold in such private placement at the private placement sale price. On January 1, 2005, these rights were automatically converted into 5.85 units. Each unit consists of (i) 1,000 shares of series A convertible, redeemable preferred stock and (ii) warrants to purchase 320,513 shares of common stock, exercisable for three years at $0.195 per share.

In October and November 2004, pursuant to loan agreements, we issued promissory notes for the aggregate principal amount of $375,000. Pursuant to the loan agreements, the notes carried interest at the rate of 10% per year, and we agreed to grant 128,206 restricted shares of common stock to the note holders for each $100,000 loaned. The notes were to mature in April 2005. In the event of default on repayment of the promissory notes, as penalty, (i) the interest rate on the unpaid principal shall be increased to a rate of 20% per annum commencing from the date of default, (ii) the equity kicker shall be increases to a rate of 192,308 restricted shares of common stock for each $100,000 loaned, and (iii) the repayment after default of the promissory notes shall be collateralized by a subordinated security interest in the Company’s assets. The security interest shall be subordinate to the rights of any lending institution, any asset-based lending agreement, and any rights and preferences of any subscribers in the private placement of units that commenced in December 2004. Through April 29, 2005, we repaid notes with an aggregate principal amount of $150,000 and accrued interest thereon, and issued 192,309 shares of common stock to the note holders. In April 2005, the four note holders of the remaining principal amount of $225,000 agreed to extend the maturity date of the loans from April 30, 2005 to May 31, 2005. In consideration of the extension, the interest rate on three notes were increased to the rate of 20% per year and the shares of common stock issuable to certain of those note holders will be based on 192,308 restricted shares of common stock for each $100,000 loaned. On or about May 25, 2005 and May 27, 2005, the four note holders further agreed to extend the maturity date of the loans, so that one note in the principal amount of $50,000 was due June 15, 2005, and the three other notes in the aggregate principal amount of $175,000 were due June 30, 2005. In June 2005, we repaid two notes with the principal amount of $75,000 and issued 96,155 shares of common stock to the note holders with 48076 shares yet to be issued.  In June 2005, a holder of a $50,000 note due June 30, 2005 agreed to extend the maturity date to August 15, 2005, and another holder of a $100,000 note due June 30, 2005 agreed to extend the maturity date to September 1, 2005.

In April 2005, in a transaction deemed exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, we issued warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of our common stock to Jaffoni & Collins Incorporated pursuant to a consulting agreement for public relations services. The warrants are exercisable for three years at $0.195 per share.


14


On August 2, 2004, pursuant to an employment agreement with Daniel J. Lanjewar, our former Chief Financial Officer, we agreed to issue 568,175 shares of our common stock in a transaction deemed exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The grant of shares was subject to vesting and subject to continued employment. On January 1, 2005, 113,635 shares vested, and the reminder of the shares were to vest in equal portions on July 1, 2005, July 1, 2006, July 1, 2007, and July 1, 2008, subject to proportionate adjustment in the event of employment termination for any incomplete vesting period. In April 2005, Mr. Lanjewar resigned as our Chief Financial Officer, and was vested with an additional 113,637 shares of common stock, which is yet to be issued

On April 29, 2005, pursuant to an option agreement with Richard Trotter, our Chief Operating Officer, we agreed to issue options to purchase up to 875,000 shares of our common stock in a transaction deemed exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. Subject to vesting, the stock options are exercisable for five years from the vesting date at $0.605 per share. Twenty percent of the options vested on April 29, 2005, and the remaining options are to vest in equal installments over the next four anniversary dates of the agreement.

In July, 2005, we sold one accredited investor in a transaction deemed exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, for the sum of $5,000, 50 shares of Series A convertible, redeemable preferred stock and warrants to purchase 6,026 shares of common stock, exercisable for three years at $.0195 per share. The preferred stock has a stated value of $100 per share, carries a 6% annual cumulative dividend, payable semi annually in arrears, and is convertible into shares of common stock at a rate of one preferred share into 641 shares of common stock. We used the proceeds for working capital purchases.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

“FORWARD-LOOKING” INFORMATION

This report on Form 10-KSB contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which represent our expectations and beliefs, including, but not limited to statements concerning the Company's expected growth. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date such statement was made. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond our control, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of important factors.


INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the information set forth in the audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended April 30, 2005 and April 30, 2004 and footnotes found in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.

Unless otherwise stated, the discussion and analysis refers to the business of Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. and does not refer to the operations for our former business which was essentially a non-operating shell company.

The year ended April 30, 2005 was a period of development, as we continue to develop our products and market them to dealers and manufacturers.


MERGER AND CORPORATE RESTRUCTURE

Prior to February 27, 2004, we did not conduct any substantive operations. On February 27, 2004, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, we acquired Sparta Commercial Services, LLC, in a transaction viewed as a reverse acquisition. The purpose of the transaction was to try to create some value for our shareholders. As an inactive publicly registered shell corporation with no significant assets or operations, our business plan was to seek an acquisition candidate. Sparta sought access to financing, as a publicly-held company. As a result of the reverse acquisition, there was a change in control of our company. In accordance with SFAS No. 141, Sparta Commercial Services LLC was the acquiring entity. While the transaction is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, in substance the Agreement is a recapitalization of the Company’s capital structure and is recorded as a capital transaction rather than a business combination under SFAS 141.

For accounting purposes, the Company has accounted for the transaction as a reverse acquisition and Sparta Commercial Services LLC shall be the surviving entity. The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with the transaction and there were no adjustments to the Company’s historic carrying values of the assets and liabilities.

The accompanying financial statements present the historical financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Sparta Commercial Services LLC prior to the acquisition.

Till January 31, 2005, Sparta was a development stage company. Efforts had been principally devoted to developing business as an originator and indirect lender for retail installment loan and lease financing for the purchase or lease of new and used motorcycles (specifically 500cc and higher) and utility-oriented 4-stroke all terrain vehicles (ATVs).

To date, we have generated limited sales revenues, have incurred expenses and have sustained losses. Consequently, our operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from October 1, 2001 (date of Sparta's inception) through April 30, 2005, we have accumulated losses of $6,277,658.

16


The period from inception till January 31, 2005 was a developmental stage period for us, setting up credit procedures, setting our arrangements with vehicle distributors, obtaining personnel, seeking financing to support our developmental efforts, and seeking credit facilities. In fiscal year 2005, we have begun to obtain regulatory approval in several states, where required, prior to commencing active operations. We are actively signing up dealers to participate in our financing programs, including our private label financing programs. We have signed up three manufacturers to our private label programs, and are in negotiations with several other manufacturers who have indicated an interest in a private label program. Presently, we do not have sufficient operating capital to fulfill our planned business plans. We estimate that we will need approximately $1,800,000 to conduct limited operations during the next twelve months. The lack of capital has made it difficult to obtain a credit line with a lending institution which we will need before commencing full active operations. We are presently in discussions with several institutions about obtaining a credit line, which would permit us to more quickly implement our business plan


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2005 TO THE YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2004

For the year ended April 30, 2005, we have generated limited sales revenues, have incurred significant expenses, and have sustained significant losses. We believe we will begin to earn increasing revenues from operations in fiscal 2006 as we complete our transition to an operating company.

Revenues

Revenues totaled $65,833 in fiscal 2005 compared to $0 revenues in fiscal 2004. Fiscal 2005 revenue was comprised of $22,800 in dealer fees, $9,900 in private label fees, $17,575 in lease payments and $15,558 in other fees and income.

Costs and Expenses

The Company incurred licensing fees of $150,633 for the year ended April 30, 2005, and $730,433 for the year ended April 30, 2004, respectively. The costs incurred were for the licensing of certain proprietary software, operating systems and processes for use in connection with the extension of credit and underwriting techniques for the purchase and lease of motor vehicles. The decrease from fiscal 2004 to fiscal 2005 reflects the fact that this process is nearing completion.

The Company incurred organization costs of $294,408 for the year ended April 30, 2005, and $670,486 for the year ended April 30, 2004, respectively. Organizational costs consist of establishing business procedures, filing to do business web site development and related activities. The year to year decrease in organization costs is primarily attributed to the wind down of initial organizational activity.

The Company incurred compensation costs of $828,298 for the year ended April 30, 2005 compared with $223,968 in fiscal 2004. The increase is related to the costs of the Company increasing its employment base during 2005 including the addition of a Chief Operating Officer and a Chief Financial Officer as well as several administrative personnel. At April 30, 2005, the headcount was 8. As the Company continues to expand, the Company will incur additional costs for personnel. In order for the Company to attract and retain quality personnel, management anticipates it will continue to offer competitive salaries and issue common stock to consultants and employees.

The Company paid $233,333 and $135,140 to its managing member, who is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, in fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively. These payments were charged to operations, and are included in the compensation costs shown above.

In connection with the private placement transaction, the Company has expensed non cash costs of $383,284 to issue warrants to the private placement agent for the year ended April 30, 2005 and $0 in fiscal 2004. The Company has expensed non cash costs $1,810,000 which equals the intrinsic value of the imbedded beneficial conversion feature for the Preferred Stock holders for the year ended April 30, 2005 and $0 in fiscal 2004. At April 30, 2005, accrued preferred dividends of $28,906 were charged to operations. There was no accrual made in fiscal 2004.

The Company incurred legal and accounting fees of $197,384 for the year ended April 30, 2005, as compared to $85,962 for the year ended April 30, 2004, respectively. The increase in costs is related to legal and accounting expenses associated with finalizing the private placement and complying with various federal and state securities statutes, rules and regulations.

17

 
The Company incurred other operating expenses of $791,647 for the year ended April 30, 2005. Notable expenses in this category are the cost of a purchase option for a portfolio of equipment leases of $250,000, rent of $125,214, consulting expenses of $84,365, travel of $79,547, advertising of $28,107, telecommunications of $21,476 and depreciation of $22,626. The remainder is comprised of expenses for postage, shipping, storage, repairs and other normal operating costs. In fiscal 2004, other operating costs totaled $70,119, comprised of rent of $19,772, travel of $18,430, advertising of $4,057 and all other expenses of $27,860.

Net Loss

Our net loss for the year ended April 30, 2005 was $4,418,727 in contrast to a loss of $1,772,257 for the year ended April 30, 2004, respectively. The increase in net loss was due primarily to the fact that the Company incurred expenses related to the private placement transaction, consisting of non cash expense of a beneficial conversion discount of $1,810,000, and a non cash expense of $383,284 for warrants issued to the placement agent in 2005 and to the fact that the Company has increased its resources and spending in 2005 as it transitioned from a development stage to an operating entity. The payment of $250,000 for a purchase option for equipment leases from American Motorcycle Leasing Corp. also contributed to the loss.

Our net loss per common share (basic and diluted) was $0.05 for the year ended April 30, 2005 and $0.25 for the year ended April 30, 2004.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES 

As of April 30, 2005, the Company had a working capital deficit of $728,207. The Company generated a deficit in cash flow from operations of $1,688,745 for the year ended April 30, 2005. This deficit is primarily attributable to the Company's net loss from operations of $2,579,821, adjusted for depreciation and amortization of $28,740, the cost of warrants issued of $473,264, the cost of shares issued to employees of $82,500, the cost of accrued preferred dividends of $28,906 and to changes in the balances of current assets and liabilities. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by $428,215 primarily due to the remaining accrual of a portfolio purchase option of $169,000, payroll taxes of $85,341, accrued interest on notes payable of $13,476, accrued preferred dividends of $28,906 and other normal operating expenses recorded but not yet paid.

Cash flows used in investing activities for the year ended April 30, 2005 was $220,863, primarily due to the purchase of property and equipment of $120,964 and payments for motorcycles of $113,278.

The Company met its cash requirements during the period through net proceeds from the issuance of equity of $1,681,000 and obtaining net bridge loans of $300,000 and a loan from officer for $25,000. Subsequent to this period, the Company has received additional proceeds from equity of $1,775,000. Additionally, the Company has received limited revenues from leasing and financing motorcycles and other vehicles, its recently launched private label programs and from dealer sign-up fees.

While we have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing needs in the past, additional financing is required in order to meet our current and projected cash flow deficits from operations and development. We are seeking financing in the form of equity in order to provide the necessary working capital. We currently have no commitments for financing. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required.

We estimate that we will need approximately $1,800,000 to conduct limited operations during the next twelve months. Based on capital received from equity financing to date, and certain indications of interest to purchase our equity, we believe that we have a reasonable chance to raise sufficient capital resources to meet projected cash flow deficits through the next twelve months. There can be no assurance that additional private or public financing, including debt or equity financing, will be available as needed, or, if available, on terms favorable to the Company. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to shareholders and such additional equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of the Company's existing common or preferred stock. Furthermore, debt financing, if available, will require payment of interest and may involve restrictive covenants that could impose limitations on the operating flexibility of the Company. However, if we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition, and we will have to adjust our planned operations and development on a more limited scale.


18


The effect of inflation on the Company's revenue and operating results was not significant. The Company's operations are located in North America and there are no seasonal aspects that would have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.


AUDITOR'S OPINION EXPRESSES DOUBT ABOUT THE COMPANY'S ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A "GOING CONCERN"

The independent auditors report on our April 30, 2005 and 2004 financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report states that the Company's historical losses and the lack of revenues raise substantial doubts about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, due to the losses incurred and its lack of significant operations. If we are unable to develop our business, we have to discontinue operations or cease to exist, which would be detrimental to the value of the Company's common stock. We can make no assurances that our business operations will develop and provide us with significant cash to continue operations.


PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Addressing the Going Concern Issues

In order to improve the Company's liquidity, the Company's management is actively pursing additional equity financing through discussions with investment bankers and private investors. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in its effort to secure additional equity financing.

We continue to experience net operating losses. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to develop profitable operations. We are devoting substantially all of our efforts to developing our business and raising capital. Our net operating losses increases the difficulty in meeting such goals and there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful.

The primary issues management will focus on in the immediate future to address this matter include:

 
·
seeking a credit line from institutional lenders;
 
·
seeking institutional investors for equity investments in our company; and
 
·
initiating negotiations to secure short term financing through promissory notes or other debt instruments on an as needed basis.

To address these issues, we are negotiating the potential sale of securities with investment banking companies to assist us in raising capital.

Product Research and Development

We do not anticipate incurring significant research and development expenditures during the next twelve months.

Acquisition or Disposition of Plant and Equipment

We do not anticipate the sale of any significant property, plant or equipment during the next twelve months. We do not anticipate the acquisition of any significant property, plant or equipment during the next twelve months.

Number of Employees

From our inception through the period ended April 30, 2005, we have relied on the services of outside consultants for services and currently have nine employees. In order for us to attract and retain quality personnel, we anticipate we will have to offer competitive salaries to future employees. We do not anticipate our employment base will significantly change during the next twelve months. As we continue to expand, we will incur additional cost for personnel. This projected increase in personnel is dependent upon our generating revenues and obtaining sources of financing. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required or generating revenues sufficient to fund the projected increase in the number of employees.


19


INFLATION

The impact of inflation on the costs of the Company, and the ability to pass on cost increases to its customers over time is dependent upon market conditions. The Company is not aware of any inflationary pressures that have had any significant impact on the Company’s operations over the past quarter, and the Company does not anticipate that inflationary factors will have a significant impact on future operations.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements; we believe the following critical accounting policy involves the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments:

Stock-Based Compensation

In December 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of SFAS 123." This statement amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," 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, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 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. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation expense for stock Warrants is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the exercise price of the related option. The Company has adopted the annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 in its financial reports for the period from January 1, 2003 through April 30, 2003 and will adopt the interim disclosure provisions for its financial reports for the subsequent periods. The Company has stock based awards of compensation to employees of $82,500 granted and outstanding during the period from October 1, 2001 (date of inception) through April 30, 2005.

Website Development Costs
 
The has incurred costs to develop a proprietary web-based private label financing program for processing including web access, processing credit applications, consumer contracts and other related documents and processes. The Company has elected to recognize the costs of developing its website and related intellectual property the website development costs in accordance with Emerging Issue Task Force ("EITF") No. 00-02, "Accounting for Website Development Costs."" As such, the Company expenses all costs incurred that relate to the planning and post implementation phases of development of its website. Direct costs incurred in the development phase are capitalized and recognized over the estimated useful life. Costs associated with repair or maintenance for the website are included in cost of net revenues in the current period expenses.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS 151, Inventory Costs-- an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. This Statement amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, "Inventory Pricing," to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Paragraph 5 of ARB 43, Chapter 4, previously stated that ". . . under some circumstances, items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs may be so abnormal as to require treatment as current period charges. . . ." This Statement requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of "so abnormal." In addition, this Statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. This Statement is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Management does not believe the adoption of this Statement will have any immediate material impact on the Company.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.152, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions--an amendment of FASB Statements No. 66 and 67" ("SFAS 152) The amendments made by Statement 152 This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate, to reference the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions that is provided in AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 04-2, Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions. This Statement also amends FASB Statement No. 67, Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects, to state that the guidance for (a) incidental operations and (b) costs incurred to sell real estate projects does not apply to real estate time-sharing transactions. The accounting for those operations and costs is subject to the guidance in SOP 04-2. This Statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. with earlier application encouraged. The Company does not anticipate that the implementation of this standard will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") published Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment ("SFAS 123R"). SFAS 123R requires that compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Share-based payment transactions within the scope of SFAS 123R include stock Warrants, restricted stock plans, performance-based awards, stock appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. On April 14, 2005, the SEC amended the effective date of the provisions of this statement. Accordingly, the Company will implement the revised standard in the forth quarter of fiscal year 2006. Currently, the Company accounts for its share-based payment transactions under the provisions of APB 25, which does not necessarily require the recognition of compensation cost in the financial statements. Management is assessing the implications of this revised standard, which may materially impact the Company's results of operations in the third quarter of fiscal year 2006 and thereafter.

On December 16, 2004, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions (" SFAS 153"). This statement amends APB Opinion 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. Under SFAS 153, if a nonmonetary exchange of similar productive assets meets a commercial-substance criterion and fair value is determinable, the transaction must be accounted for at fair value resulting in recognition of any gain or loss. SFAS 153 is effective for nonmonetary transactions in fiscal periods that begin after June 15, 2005. The Company does not anticipate that the implementation of this standard will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143,” which requires an entity to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if the liability’s fair value can be reasonably estimated. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of FIN 47 no later than the end of its fiscal 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption of this Interpretation to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


21


In May 2005 the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3.” SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements for changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. SFAS 154 also requires that retrospective application of a change in accounting principle be limited to the direct effects of the change. Indirect effects of a change in accounting principle, such as a change in non-discretionary profit-sharing payments resulting from an accounting change, should be recognized in the period of the accounting change. SFAS 154 also requires that a change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Early adoption is permitted for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after the date this Statement is issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of this SFAS to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company does not maintain off-balance sheet arrangements nor does it participate in non-exchange traded contracts requiring fair value accounting treatment.


TRENDS, RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

We have sought to identify what we believe to be the most significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise. Investors should carefully consider all of such risk factors before making an investment decision with respect to our Common Stock.

CAUTIONARY FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

We have sought to identify what we believe are significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise.

Potential Fluctuations in Annual Operating Results

Our annual operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, most of which are outside our control, including: the demand for our products and services; seasonal trends in purchasing, the amount and timing of capital expenditures and other costs relating to the commercial and consumer financing; price competition or pricing changes in the market; technical difficulties or system downtime; general economic conditions and economic conditions specific to the consumer financing sector.

Our annual results may also be significantly impacted by the impact of the accounting treatment of acquisitions, financing transactions or other matters. Particularly at our early stage of development, such accounting treatment can have a material impact on the results for any quarter. Due to the foregoing factors, among others, it is likely that our operating results may fall below our expectations or those of investors in some future quarter.

Dependence Upon Management

Our future performance and success is dependant upon the efforts and abilities of our Management. To a very significant degree, we are dependent upon the continued services of Anthony L. Havens, our President and Chief Executive Officer and member of our Board of Directors. If we lost the services of either Mr. Havens, or other key employees before we could get qualified replacements, that loss could materially adversely affect our business. We do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our Management.


22


Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Our officers and directors are required to exercise good faith and high integrity in our Management affairs. Our Articles of Incorporation provide, however, that our officers and directors shall have no liability to our shareholders for losses sustained or liabilities incurred which arise from any transaction in their respective managerial capacities unless they violated their duty of loyalty, did not act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated the law, approved an improper dividend or stock repurchase, or derived an improper benefit from the transaction. Our Articles and By-Laws also provide for the indemnification by us of the officers and directors against any losses or liabilities they may incur as a result of the manner in which they operate our business or conduct the internal affairs, provided that in connection with these activities they act in good faith and in a manner that they reasonably believe to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of Sparta, and their conduct does not constitute gross negligence, misconduct or breach of fiduciary obligations. To further implement the permitted indemnification, we have entered into Indemnity Agreements with our officers and directors.

Continued Control of Current Officers and Directors

The present officers and directors own approximately 67% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, and therefore are in a position to elect all of our Directors and oth6wise control the Company, including, without limitation, authorizing the sale of equity or debt securities of Sparta, the appointment of officers, and the determination of officers' salaries. Shareholders have no cumulative voting rights. (See Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management)

Management of Growth

We may experience growth, which will place a strain on our managerial, operational and financial systems resources. To accommodate our current size and manage growth if it occurs, we must devote management attention and resources to improve our financial strength and our operational systems. Further, we will need to expand, train and manage our sales and distribution base. There is no guarantee that we will be able to effectively manage our existing operations or the growth of our operations, or that our facilities, systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to support any future growth. Our ability to manage our operations and any future growth will have a material effect on our stockholders.

If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

Companies trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, such as us, must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board. If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

REPORT OF REGISTERED INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors
Sparta Commercial Services, Inc.
New York, New York

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Sparta Commercial Services, Inc., as of April 30, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of losses, deficiency in stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended April 30, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based upon our audits.

We have conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. at April 30, 2005 and 2004, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended April 30, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the Note O to the accompanying financial statements, the company has suffered recurring losses from operations that raises substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note O. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
APRIL 30, 2005 and 2004


NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows.

Business and Basis of Presentation

Sparta Commercial Services, Inc., formerly known as Tomahawk Industries, Inc. (the “Company” or “Tomahawk”) was formed on May 13, 1980 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On February 27, 2004, the Company entered into an Agreement of Plan and Reorganization ("Agreement") with Sparta Commercial Services, LLC ("Sparta”), a limited liability company formed on October 1, 2001 under the laws of the State of Delaware under the name of Sparta Financial Services, LLC. .In accordance with SFAS No. 141, Sparta was the acquiring entity. While the transaction is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, in substance the Agreement is a recapitalization of the Company’s capital structure. As a result of the Agreement, there was a change in control of the Company. Also, subsequently, the Company’s name was changed from Tomahawk Industries, Inc. to Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. From April 1988 until the date of the Agreement, the Company was an inactive publicly registered shell corporation with no significant assets or operations (see Note B).

The Company is in the business as an originator and indirect lender for retail installment loan and lease financing for the purchase or lease of new and used motorcycles (specifically 500cc and higher) and utility-oriented 4-stroke all terrain vehicles (ATVs). The Company was in the development stage till January 31, 2005, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7 (“SFAS No. 7”). 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Sparta Commercial Services, LLC. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.


Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.


Revenue Recognition

The Company originates leases on new and used motorcycles and other powersports vehicles from motorcycle dealers throughout the United States. All of the Company’s leases, which the Company enters into, are accounted for as operating leases. At the inception of the lease, no lease revenue is recognized and the leased motorcycles, together with the initial direct costs of originating the lease, which are capitalized, appear on the balance sheet as “motorcycles under operating leases-net”. The capitalized cost of each motorcycle is depreciated over the lease term, on a straight-line, basis down to the Company’s original estimate of the projected value of the motorcycle at the end of the scheduled lease term (the “Residual”). Monthly lease payments are recognized as rental income. An acquisition fee classified as fee income on the financial statements is received and recognized in income at the inception of the lease.

The Company realizes gains and losses as the result of the termination of leases, both at and prior to their scheduled termination, and the disposition of the related motorcycle. The disposal of motorcycles, which reach scheduled termination of a lease, results in a gain or loss equal to the difference between proceeds received from the disposition of the motorcycle and its net book value. Net book value represents the residual value at scheduled lease termination. Lease terminations that occur prior to scheduled maturity as a result of the lessee’s voluntary request to purchase the vehicle have resulted in net gains, equal to the excess of the price received over the motorcycle’s net book value.

APRIL 30, 2005 and 2004

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Early lease terminations also occur because of (i) a default by the lessee, (ii) the physical loss of the motorcycle, or (iii) the exercise of the lessee’s early termination. In those instances, the Company receives the proceeds from either the
resale or release of the repossessed motorcycle, or the payment by the lessee’s insurer. The Company records a gain or loss for the difference between the proceeds received and the net book value of the motorcycle.

The company also provides financing for motorcycles and other powersports vehicles through the origination of retail installment sale contracts, where revenue is recognized over the term of the loan contract. Provision is made for delinquent accounts.

The Company charges fees to manufacturers and other customers related to creating a private label version of the Company’s financing program including web access, processing credit applications, consumer contracts and other related documents and processes. Fees received is amortized and booked as income over the length of the contract. At April 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company had recorded deferred revenue of $23,100 and $0, respectively.


Website Development Costs

The Company recognizes website development costs in accordance with Emerging Issue Task Force ("EITF") No. 00-02, "Accounting for Website Development Costs." As such, the Company expenses all costs incurred that relate to the planning and post implementation phases of development of its website. Direct costs incurred in the development phase are capitalized and recognized over the estimated useful life. Costs associated with repair or maintenance for the website are included in cost of net revenues in the current period expenses.


Cash Equivalents

For the purpose of the accompanying financial statements, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.


Marketable Securities

The Company classifies its marketable securities as “available for sale” securities which may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs and for other purposes. Securities classified as “available for sale” are carried in the financial statement at fair value. Realized gains and losses are included in other income. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

At April 30, 2005, the marketable securities balance was $0. At April 30, 2004, marketable securities consist of:

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided using the asset and liability method for financial reporting purposes in accordance with the provisions of Statements of Financial Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for financial reporting purposes and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be removed or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes are insignificant.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 (SFAS 121). The Statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. SFAS No. 121 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.


Intangible Assets

Organization costs have been expensed as incurred.


Comprehensive Income

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130"), Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for reporting and displaying of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, SFAS 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. At April 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company has $0, as accumulated unrealized gain (loss) on marketable securities classified as held for sale.


Segment Information

The Company does not have separate, reportable segments under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (“SFAS 131”). SFAS establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. SFAS 131 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. The information disclosed herein, materially represents all of the financial information related to the Company’s principal operating segment.

Stock Based Compensation

In December 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of SFAS 123." This statement amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," 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, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 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. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation expense for stock Warrants is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the exercise price of the related option. The Company has adopted the annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 in its financial reports from January 1, 2003.

Had compensation costs for the Company’s stock options been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for the awards, the Company’s net loss and losses per share would have been as follows (transactions involving stock options issued to employees and Black-Scholes model assumptions are presented in Note G):

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 123R (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". Statement 123R supersedes APB opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and amends FASB Statement No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows". Generally, the approach in Statement 123R is similar to the approach described in Statement 123. However, Statement 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro-forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. On April 14, 2005, the SEC amended the effective date of the provisions of this statement. The effect of this amendment by the SEC is that the Company will have to comply with Statement 123R and use the Fair Value based method of accounting no later than the third quarter of 2006. Management is assessing the implications of this revised standard, which may materially impact the Company's results of operations in the third quarter of fiscal year 2006 and thereafter.


Liquidity

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $(6,277,658) during the period October 1, 2001 (date of inception) through April 30, 2005. The Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $ 728,207 as of April 30, 2005.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. The Company periodically reviews its trade receivables in determining its allowance for doubtful accounts. At April 30, 2005 and 2004, allowance for doubtful accounts receivables was $0.


Research and Development

Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products will be expended in the period incurred.


Property and Equipments

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Estimated useful lives of major depreciable assets are as follows:

Leasehold improvements
5 years
Automobiles
5 years
Furniture and equipment
5 years
Computer Equipment
3 years

The Company follows a policy of charging the costs of advertising to expenses incurred. During the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company incurred advertising costs of $28,107 and $4,057, respectively.


Net Earnings (Losses) Per Common Share

The Company computes earnings per share under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (“SFAS 128”). Net earnings (losses) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the year. Dilutive common stock equivalents consist of shares issuable upon conversion of convertible preferred shares and the exercise of the Company's stock options and warrants (calculated using the treasury stock method).


Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to prior periods’ data to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported losses.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

New Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS 151, Inventory Costs-- an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. This Statement amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, "Inventory Pricing," to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Paragraph 5 of ARB 43, Chapter 4, previously stated that ". . . under some circumstances, items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs may be so abnormal as to require treatment as current period charges. . . ." This Statement requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of "so abnormal." In addition, this Statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. This Statement is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Management does not believe the adoption of this Statement will have any immediate material impact on the Company.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.152, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions--an amendment of FASB Statements No. 66 and 67" ("SFAS 152) The amendments made by Statement 152 This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate, to reference the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions that is provided in AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 04-2, Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions. This Statement also amends FASB Statement No. 67, Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects, to state that the guidance for (a) incidental operations and (b) costs incurred to sell real estate projects does not apply to real estate time-sharing transactions. The accounting for those operations and costs is subject to the guidance in SOP 04-2. This Statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005 with earlier application encouraged. The Company does not anticipate that the implementation of this standard will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") published Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment ("SFAS 123R"). SFAS 123R requires that compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Share-based payment transactions within the scope of SFAS 123R include stock Warrants, restricted stock plans, performance-based awards, stock appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. On April 14, 2005, the SEC amended the effective date of the provisions of this statement. Accordingly, the Company will implement the revised standard in the forth quarter of fiscal year 2006. Currently, the Company accounts for its share-based payment transactions under the provisions of APB 25, which does not necessarily require the recognition of compensation cost in the financial statements. Management is assessing the implications of this revised standard, which may materially impact the Company's results of operations in the third quarter of fiscal year 2006 and thereafter.

On December 16, 2004, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions (" SFAS 153"). This statement amends APB Opinion 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. Under SFAS 153, if a nonmonetary exchange of similar productive assets meets a commercial-substance criterion and fair value is determinable, the transaction must be accounted for at fair value resulting in recognition of any gain or loss. SFAS 153 is effective for nonmonetary transactions in fiscal periods that begin after June 15, 2005. The Company does not anticipate that the implementation of this standard will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143,” which requires an entity to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if the liability’s fair value can be reasonably estimated. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of FIN 47 no later than the end of its fiscal 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption of this Interpretation to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2005 the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3.” SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements for changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. SFAS 154 also requires that retrospective application of a change in accounting principle be limited to the direct effects of the change. Indirect effects of a change in accounting principle, such as a change in non-discretionary profit-sharing payments resulting from an accounting change, should be recognized in the period of the accounting change. SFAS 154 also requires that a change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Early adoption is permitted for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after the date this Statement is issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of this SFAS to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE B - MERGER AND CORPORATE RESTRUCTURE

On February 27, 2004, the Company entered into an Agreement of Plan and Reorganization ("Agreement" or “Merger”) with Sparta Commercial Services LLC ("Sparta”). As a result of the Merger, there was a change in control of the public entity. In accordance with SFAS No. 141, Sparta was the acquiring entity. While the transaction is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, in substance the Agreement is a recapitalization of Sparta’s capital structure.

For accounting purposes, the Company accounted for the transaction as a reverse acquisition and Sparta is the surviving entity. The total purchase price and carrying value of net assets acquired was $61,187. The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with the transaction. From April 1988 until the date of the Agreement, the Company was an inactive corporation with no significant assets and liabilities.

Effective with the Agreement, all previously outstanding membership interests owned by the Sparta’s members were exchanged for an aggregate of 17,920,346 shares of the Company’s common stock. The value of the stock that was issued was the historical cost of the Company’s net tangible assets, which did not differ materially from their fair value.

The total consideration paid was $61,187 and the significant components of the transaction are as follows:

In September 2004, the Company issued 17,920,346 shares of common stock. The value of the stock that was issued was the historical cost of the Company’s net tangible assets, which did not differ materially from their fair value. After the authorized capital of the company was increased, the Company issued an additional 60,813,982 shares of its common stock that was due to Sparta’s former members under the merger agreement. Also, as per the Agreement, 7,079,654 shares of common stock were retained by the stockholders of the Company.

Preferred Stock Series A

In December 2004, the Company commenced a private placement to raise up to $3,000,000 through the sale of up to 30 units of our securities at $100,000 per unit. Each unit consists of (i) 1,000 shares of series A convertible, redeemable preferred stock and (ii) warrants to purchase 320,513 shares of common stock, exercisable for three years at $0.195 per share. The preferred stock has a stated value of $100 per share, carries a 6% annual cumulative dividend, payable semi-annually in arrears, and is convertible into shares of common stock at the rate of one preferred share into 641 shares of common stock.

In December 2004, the Company began a private placement transaction utilizing a designated registered broker-dealer as a placement agent. During the year ended April 30, 2005, the Company issued 12,250 preferred shares at a stated value of $100 per share and warrants to purchase 3,926,286 shares of common stock, exercisable for three years at $0.195 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,225,000 received from investors. In connection with the private placement, during the year ended April 30, 2005, the Company issued as compensation to the placement agent warrants to 785,257 shares of common stock, exercisable for five years at $0.172 per share. The warrants, which were valued at approximately $383,284 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, were recognized as a cost of issuance of the Series A Preferred shares.

During the year ended April 30, 2005, the Company sold rights to acquire securities of the Company to investors for aggregate gross proceeds of $585,000. Pursuant to the terms of the rights, as the Company conducted a closing to a private placement transaction in 2004 utilizing a designated registered broker-dealer as a placement agent, on January 1, 2005, the rights have automatically converted into 5,850 preferred shares at a stated value of $100 per share and warrants to purchase 1,875,001 shares of common stock, exercisable for three years at $0.195 per share.

In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 98-5, Accounting for Convertible Securities with a beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios ("EITF 98-5"), the Company recognized an imbedded beneficial conversion feature present in the Preferred Stock. The Company recognized and measured an aggregate of $1,810,000, which equals to the intrinsic value of the imbedded beneficial conversion feature, to additional paid-in capital and a return to the Preferred Stock holders. Since the preferred shares were convertible at the date of issuance, the return to the preferred shareholders attributed to the beneficial conversion feature has been recognized in full at the date the Preferred Stock was issued.

NOTE J - INCOME TAXES

Financial Accounting Standard No. 109 requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes are insignificant.

At April 30, 2005, the Company has available for federal income tax purposes a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $4,500,000, expiring in the year 2024, that may be used to offset future taxable income. The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, since in the opinion of management based upon the earnings history of the Company, it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized. Also, due to change in the control after reverse acquisition of Sparta Commercial Services, Inc., the Company’s past accumulated losses to be carried forward may be limited.

Components of deferred tax assets as of April 30, 2005 are as follows:

In the period since April 30, 2005, the Company also received an additional $5,000 from a private investor with terms consistent with the private placement.


NOTE O - GOING CONCERN MATTERS

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements during the period October 1, 2001 (date of inception) through April 30, 2005, the Company incurred a loss of $6,277,658. These factors among others may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

The Company's existence is dependent upon management's ability to develop profitable operations. Management is devoting substantially all of its efforts to developing its business and raising capital and there can be no assurance that the Company's efforts will be successful. However, the planned principal operations have not commenced and no assurance can be given that management's actions will result in profitable operations or the resolution of its liquidity problems. The accompanying statements do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

In order to improve the Company's liquidity, the Company's management is actively pursing additional equity financing through discussions with investment bankers and private investors. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in its effort to secure additional equity financing.

ITEM 8.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Former Principal Accountant

On February 27, 2003, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, we acquired substantially all of the outstanding membership interests in Sparta Commercial Services, LLC and issued shares representing approximately 91.75% of the registrant, resulting in a change in control of our company.

On June 9, 2004, we notified S. W. Hatfield, CPA, our independent public accountants, that we were terminating its services, effective as of that date. Our decision to change its principal accountant was recommended and approved by our Board of Directors.

The former principal accountants' report on our financial statements for the years ended April 30, 2002 and 2003 (prior to our reverse acquisition of Sparta), expressed substantial doubt with respect to our ability, at that time, to continue as a going concern. The former principal accountants' reports on our financial statements for the past two years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except as to going concern issues. Furthermore, during such period, there were no disagreements with the former principal accountants within the meaning of Instruction 4 to Item 304 of Regulation S-B under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former principal accountants, would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with any report they might have issued. We have authorized the former accountants to respond fully to all inquires of the successor accountant concerning any matter.

New Principal Accountant

On June 9, 2004, we engaged Russell Bedford Stefanou Mirchandani LLP as our principal registered public accounting firm. Our Board of Directors approved the selection of Russell Bedford Stefanou Mirchandani LLP as our principal registered public accounting firm. We did not previously consult with Russell Bedford Stefanou Mirchandani LLP regarding any matter, including but not limited to:

 
·
the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or
 
·
the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements; or
 
·
any matter that was either the subject matter of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B and the related instructions) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-B).

ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the date of their evaluation, for the purposes of recording, processing, summarizing and timely reporting material information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


As required by Rule 13a-15(d), the Company’s Chairman and Chief Financial Officer, also conducted an evaluation of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. During the preparation of the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended April 30, 2005, the Company has concluded that the current system of disclosure controls and procedures was not effective because of the internal control weaknesses identified below. As a result of this conclusion, the Company has initiated the changes in internal control, to the extent possible given limitations in financial and manpower resources, also described below. It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events.


Lack of Adequate Accounting Staff

Because of the small size of our staff, the Chief Financial Officer processed virtually all of our financial activity. As such, there is an inherent lack of segregation of duties. The Company is developing procedures to address this situation which will improve the quality of future period financial reporting. With the exception of this weakness,, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective.

ITEM 8B. OTHER INFORMATION

In December 2004, we commenced a private placement to raise up to $3,000,000 through the sale of up to 30 units of our securities at $100,000 per unit. Each unit consists of (i) 1,000 shares of series A convertible, redeemable preferred stock and (ii) warrants to purchase 320,513 shares of common stock, exercisable for three years at $0.195 per share. The preferred stock has a stated value of $100 per share, carries a 6% annual cumulative dividend, payable semi-annually in arrears, and is convertible into shares of common stock at the rate of one preferred share into 641 shares of common stock. The private placement is being conducted by a placement agent on a best efforts basis. The units are being offered solely to accredited investors. The units offered have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. We agreed to file a registration statement, at our expense, for the resale of common stock underlying the units within 90 days of the final closing of the private placement. The placement agent is entitled to 10% of the cash proceeds from the private placement and reimbursement for expenses, and warrants to purchase such number of shares of common stock, exercisable for five years at $0.172 per share from the date of issuance, as equals 10% of the number of shares of common stock underlying the preferred stock sold. In transactions with accredited investors deemed exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, from December 2004 through April 30, 2005, we sold 12.25 units for proceeds of $1,225,000, and issued 785,257 warrants to the placement agent. A subscription for 0.05 units was subsequently rescinded. Through July, 2005, we sold an aggregate of 29.95 units for proceeds of $2,995,000. We used the proceeds for working capital purposes.

In October and November 2004, pursuant to loan agreements, we issued promissory notes for the aggregate principal amount of $375,000. Pursuant to the loan agreements, the notes carried interest at the rate of 10% per year, and we agreed to grant 128,206 restricted shares of common stock to the note holders for each $100,000 loaned. The notes were to mature in April 2005. In the event of default on repayment of the promissory notes, as penalty, (i) the interest rate on the unpaid principal shall be increased to a rate of 20% per annum commencing from the date of default, (ii) the equity kicker shall be increases to a rate of 192,308 restricted shares of common stock for each $100,000 loaned, and (iii) the repayment after default of the promissory notes shall be collateralized by a subordinated security interest in the Company’s assets. The security interest shall be subordinate to the rights of any lending institution, any asset-based lending agreement, and any rights and preferences of any subscribers in the private placement of units that commenced in December 2004. Through April 30, 2005, we repaid notes with an aggregate principal amount of $75,000 and accrued interest thereon, and issued 96,155 shares of common stock to the note holders. On May 2, 2005 an additional $75,000 was repaid and 96,155 shares of common stock will be issued. In April 2005, the four note holders of the remaining principal amount of $225,000 agreed to extend the maturity date of the loans from April 30, 2005 to May 31, 2005. In consideration of the extension, the interest rate on three notes were increased to the rate of 20% per year and the shares of common stock issuable to those note holders will be based on 192,308 restricted shares of common stock for each $100,000 loaned. On or about May 25, 2005 and May 27, 2005, the four note holders further agreed to extend the maturity date of the loans, so that one note in the principal amount of $50,000 was due June 15, 2005, and the three other notes in the aggregate principal amount of $175,000 were due June 30, 2005. In June 2005, we repaid two notes with the principal amount of $75,000 and issued 96,155 shares of common stock to the note holders. An additional 48,076 shares is yet to be issued. In June 2005, a holder of a $50,000 note due June 30, 2005 agreed to extend the maturity date to August 15, 2005, and another holder of a $100,000 note due June 30, 2005 agreed to extend the maturity date to September 1, 2005.

In July, 2005, we sold to one accredited investor for the sum of $5,000, 50 shares of Series A convertible, redeemable preferred stock and warrants to purchase 16,026 shares of common stock, exercisable for three years at $0.195 per share. The preferred stock has a stated value of $100 per share, carries a 6% annual cumulative dividend, payable semi annually in arrears, and is convertible into shares of common stock at a rate of one preferred share into 641 shares of common stock. We used the proceeds for working capital purposes.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS, COMMITTEES AND MEETING

Our directors are elected annually to serve for one year and hold office until the next annual meeting of the shareholders and until their successors are elected and qualified. Our Board of Directors may increase the size of the Board of Directors. Any director who fills a position created by the Board of Directors serves until the next annual meeting of the shareholders. Our officers are elected by the Board of Directors at the first meeting after each annual meeting of our shareholders, and hold office until their death, resignation or removal from office.

There are no family relationships among our executive officers or directors. None of the our directors or officers are directors of another reporting company. None of the directors and officers during the past five years have been: involved in a bankruptcy petition or a pending criminal proceeding; convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic and minor offenses); subject to any order, judgment, or decree, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or found by a court, the SEC or the CFTC to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law.

During the fiscal year that ended on April 30, 2005, the Board of Directors did not hold any formal meetings, . Other matters were undertaken by written consent by the Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors does not currently maintain an audit, nominating or compensation committee, or similar committees, of the Board of Directors. We plan to appoint an audit, nominating and compensation committee in the near future.

The Board of Directors is responsible for matters typically performed by an audit committee. We do not have a separate audit committee, or any other committee, of the Board of Directors. No person serving on our Board of Directors qualifies as a financial expert. We seek to attract persons with financial experience to serve on our Board of Directors and we intend to form an audit committee of the Board of Directors during our fiscal year 2005.

CODE OF ETHICS

We have not yet adopted a code of ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees. However, we expect to adopt a code of ethics during our fiscal year 2005.


52


CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Certain management employees of our company have worked for American Motorcycle and Leasing Corp. and will continue to do so on a limited basis for the near future as we transition from a development stage company and commence active operations. While our business plans differ from those of American Motorcycle and Leasing Corp., we operate in the same industry as American Motorcycle and Leasing Corp. Mr. Havens is an officer, director and significant equity owner of American Motorcycle and Leasing Corporation. Pursuant to a license agreement between Sparta Commercial Services and American Motorcycle and Leasing Corp., Sparta Commercial Services issued 330,433 membership interests to American Motorcycle and Leasing Corp., which will be exchanged for 34,256,941 shares of our common stock after we increase our authorized capital. Officers and directors of Sparta who are also shareholders of American Motorcycle and Leasing Corp. disclaim ownership of, and entitled to, any of those shares. Issues could arise with respect to the taking of corporate opportunities of each other. Any competition with American Motorcycle and Leasing Corp. could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. Accordingly, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims, including claims of alleged infringement of the intellectual property, competition, conflict of interest, and other business governance related claims. Such claims, even if not meritorious, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires Sparta’s executive officers, directors, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of the Company’s common stock to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of beneficial ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership of Sparta’s common stock. Such persons are also required by Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish Sparta with copies of all such Section 16(a) forms filed by such person. Based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to Sparta, Sparta is not aware of any material delinquencies in the filing of such reports, except as follows: on June 1, 2005, Michael J. Mele filed a Form 3 reporting his status as an officer as of April 29, 2005.

In July 2004, we adopted a stock incentive compensation plan. The plan authorized the Board to grant securities, including stock options, to employees, directors and others, in the aggregate amount of 8,500,000 shares of common stock. Securities issued under the plan may be stock awards, non-qualified options, incentive stock options, or any combination of the foregoing. In general, stock options granted under the plan have a maximum duration of ten years from the date of the grant and are not transferable. The per share exercise price of any incentive stock option granted under the plan may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Incentive stock options granted to persons who have voting control over ten percent or more of our capital stock are granted at 110% of fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant and expire five years after the date of grant. No options may be granted after July 1, 2014. During the year ended April 30, 2005, no securities were granted under this plan.

On April 29, 2005, pursuant to an option agreement with Richard Trotter, our Chief Operating Officer, we issued stock options to purchase up to 875,000 shares of our common stock.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

Audit Fees

Fees for audit services provided by our principal accountant during the years ended April 30, 2004 and 2005 were $23,769 and $39,746, respectively. Audit services consisted primarily of the annual audits, review of our financial statements, and services that are normally provided by our accountants in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years.

Audit-Related Fees

There were no fees billed for services reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements outside of those fees disclosed above under the caption Audit Fees for fiscal years ended April 30, 2004 and 2005.

Tax Fees

Fees for tax services provided by our principal accountant during the years ended April 30, 2004 and 2005 were $2,500 and $1,500, respectively. Tax services related primarily to the preparation of company tax filings with regulatory agencies.

All Other Fees

There were no other fees billed for services.

Audit Committee Procedure

The Board of Directors is responsible for matters typically performed by an audit committee. We do not presently have a separate audit committee of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors considered whether, and determined that, the auditor's provision of non-audit services was compatible with maintaining the auditor's independence. All of the services described above for fiscal years ended April 30, 2004 and 2005 were approved by the Board of Directors. We intend to continue using our principal registered public accounting firm, solely for audit and audit- related services, tax consultation and tax compliance services, and, as needed, for due diligence in acquisitions and similar transactions.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Board of Directors approved all of the services described above, and all fees paid. The Board of Directors did not have pre-approval policies and procedures in place during our fiscal years ended April 30, 2004 and 2005. In fiscal year 2006, we intend to implement a policy whereby, we will, prior to engaging our accountants to perform a particular service, obtain an estimate for the service to be performed and begin pre-approving all services.
