VOLT INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES (FORMERLY DEERBROOK PUBLISHING GROUP, INC AND SUBSIDIARIES) NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1- ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION The condensed consolidated unaudited interim financial statements included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated financial statements and notes are presented as permitted on Form 10-QSB and do not contain information included in the Company's annual consolidated statements and notes. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The results for the three months ended December 31, 2001 may not be indicative of the results for the entire year. These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained herein. Volt, Inc., formerly Deerbrook Publishing Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries is a power provider and marketer of alternative energy and back-up power systems. The Company is in the initial stages of implementing its business plan. Deerbrook Publishing Group, Inc. was a distributor of fine arts. Effective March 31, 2001, Deerbrook Publishing Group, Inc. entered into an agreement to spin off its subsidiaries; Inter Arts, Inc. and Cimmaron Studios, Inc. On April 23, 2001, the Company effected a 1 for 100 reverse stock split for its $.001 par value common stock. Upon this spin off, the name was officially changed to Volt, Inc. when on April 25, 2001, Denis C. Tseklenis acquired 127,995 shares of the Company's common stock, $.001 par value per share, which constituted approximately 53% of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock for $255,000. In the Company's fiscal third quarter of 2001, two inactive wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sun Volt, Inc. and Sun Electronics, Inc. were incorporated.

AND SUBSIDIARIES (FORMERLY DEERBROOK PUBLISHING GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES) NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2000 NOTE 2- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001 and the audited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2001 and unaudited statements of operations, and cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2001 includes Volt, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sun Volt, Inc., Sun Electronics, Inc. and Arcadian Renewable Power, Inc. The unaudited statements of operations, and cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2000 include Deerbrook Publishing Group, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Signature Editions, Inc., Inter Arts, Incorporated, and Cimmaron Studios, Inc. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances at several financial institutions which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Office and Computer 5 years Furniture and Fixtures 7 years Wind Farm 40 years VOLT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES (FORMERLY DEERBROOK PUBLISHING GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES) NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2000 NOTE 2- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Revenue Recognition Volt, Inc. had no revenues for the year ended September 30, 2001. For the first quarter ended December 31, 2001, the Company sold merchandise and revenue was recorded under the accrual method of accounting. Advertising Advertising costs are typically expensed as incurred. Income Taxes The income tax benefit is computed on the pretax loss based on the current tax law. Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Earnings (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock Historical net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) includes additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants. Common stock equivalents were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reported a loss because to do so would be antidilutive for periods presented. VOLT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES (FORMERLY DEERBROOK PUBLISHING GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES) NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2000 NOTE 2- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Earnings (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock (Continued) The following is a reconciliation of the computation for basic and diluted EPS: December 31, December 31, 2001 2000 Net income (loss) $ 27,794 ($24,710) Weighted- average common shares Outstanding (Basic) 1,844,422 9,490,548 Weighted-average common stock Equivalents: Stock options - - Warrants - - Weighted-average common shares Outstanding (Diluted) 1,844,422 9,490,548 Options and warrants outstanding to purchase stock were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because inclusion would have been antidilutive. Reclassifications Certain amounts for the three months ended December 31, 2000 have been reclassified to conform with the presentation of the December 31, 2001 amounts. The reclassifications have no effect on net income for the three months ended December 31, 2000. VOLT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES (FORMERLY DEERBROOK PUBLISHING GROUP, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES) NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2000 NOTE 6- LITIGATION At September 30, 2000, Inter Arts, Inc. was involved in litigation with Copelco Capital, Inc. ("Copelco") the lessor of silk screens. Copelco brought suit against the company to recover its damages for the return of the leased equipment. Inter Arts filed a motion to dismiss presenting defenses of improper value and insufficiency of service of process and alternatively for change of venue. In April, 2001 upon the recapitalization by Volt, Inc., the subsidiary, Inter Arts was not part of the transaction. Management, with the advice of legal counsel, has written off the liability. NOTE 7- PENDING ACQUISITIONS, MERGERS AND BUSINESS COMBINATIONS The Company is currently negotiating and concluding its due diligence with Wolverine Power Corporation, which owns hydroelectric plants in Michigan. Wolverine has long-term power sales contracts to Consumers Electric Corp., a NYSE company. Revenue approximating $1,000,000 annually will be realized by the Company when and if the transaction is completed. A non-circumvention and non-disclosure agreement has been signed with an existing independent electricity supplier with over 100,000 retail customers located in the United States. Negotiations between the parties are continuing. The Company has completed a joint venture and partnership with Opportunity Knocks, Inc., during the second quarter of 2002 to rehab HUD and other properties in Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia under the HUD gift program. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation. The Company is continuing to diversify its core business of power generation through acquisition while it redevelops the Altamonte Wind Power facility. Current strategy remains to acquire profitable projects with long-term revenue and minimal downside risk. Mmnagement expects to complete some of these transactions during the second quarter of 2002 and also plans to announce a full board of directors and officers in the same period. PART II - - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings. In September of 1999, the Deerbrook Publishing Group, Inc. ("Deerbrook") leased a computer driven aspect image center (printer for film) used to make separation for printing (the "aspect image center") and certain other computer equipment from Copelco Capital, Inc. ("Copelco"). All of the equipment was delivered to the Deerbrook's then printing operation in Phoenix, Arizona, and installed. Shortly thereafter, Deerbrook ceased printing for itself and its customers. The equipment was returned to Copelco. In August of 2000, Copelco brought suit in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona, cause no. CIV `00-1620 PHX ROS, to recover its alleged damages $155,398.02 for Deerbrook's return of the leased equipment plus continuing interest at the rate of one and one-third percent per month and attorneys fees and costs. The Company does not believe that Copelco has mitigated its damages and further believes that Copelco has either sold the equipment or otherwise disposed of the same in a manner which was not commercially reasonable. The Copelco claims will be vigorously defended against. The range of possible loss should not exceed $100,000. The outcome of this litigation is unascertainable at this time. Inter Arts filed a motion to dismiss presenting defenses of improper value and insufficiency of service of process and alternatively for change of venue. In April, 2001 upon the recapitalization by Volt, Inc., the subsidiary, Inter Arts was not part of the transaction. Management, with the advice of legal counsel, has written off the liability. Item 2. Changes in Securities. Effective April 23, 2001, the Registrant effected a 1 for 100 reverse stock split for its common stock, $.001 par value per share. On April 25, 2001, Denis C.
