Coventure International Inc.
(formerly Liquidpure Corp.)
(a development stage enterprise)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
October 31, 2002
(Unaudited)
(expressed in U.S. dollars)
1. FORMATION AND BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY
Coventure International Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware,
U.S.A. on March 31, 1999 as Bullet Environmental Systems, Inc. and changed
its name on May 25, 2000 to Liquidpure Corp. On February 14, 2002, the
Company changed its name to Coventure International Inc.
The Company is a development stage enterprise engaged in the business of
providing management consulting products and services through an eventual
network of regionally licensed operators in North America. The Company's
services will include strategic analysis, planning, consulting and coaching.
To date the Company has not commenced significant operational activities.
These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly-owned subsidiary Coventure Canada Inc. (the "Subsidiary"). The
Subsidiary was incorporated in the Province of Alberta, Canada on February 5,
2002.
Going concern
The accompanying financial statements have been presented assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. At October 31, 2002, the Company
had accumulated $93,492 in losses and had no material revenue producing
operations. At the date of this report, the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital,
achieve profitable operations or merge with a revenue-producing venture
partner.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with applicable accounting
regulations. Accordingly, revenues from services are recognized when all
significant contractual obligations have been satisfied and collection is
reasonably assured.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

(expressed in U.S. dollars)
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)
Income taxes
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under
this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the
difference between financial statement and tax bases of assets and
liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are
expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance in respect of
amounts considered by management to be less likely than not of realization in
future periods.
Foreign currency translation
Unless otherwise stated, all amounts are in United States dollars. The
functional currency of the Company and its Subsidiary is the Canadian dollar.
Hence, all asset and liability amounts denominated in Canadian dollars have
been translated using the exchange rate as at October 31, 2002 and all
expenses have been translated using the average exchange rate for each month.
The rates used were as follows:
(equivalent Cdn $ per U.S. $)
October 31, 2002 rate: .6421
Depreciation
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is provided for on the
straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets, estimated
to be four years. One-half the normal rate is taken in the year of
acquisition.
3. SHARE CAPITAL
Holders of the common stock are entitled to one vote per share and share
equally in any dividends declared and distributions on liquidation.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
a) The advances from a stockholder are interest-free and repayable on demand.
b) In May 2000, the Company acquired a non-exclusive commercial license from a
company controlled by a former director and officer of the Company for
$1,000. The Company experienced a lack of co-operation from the engineering
firm who owned the patent to the apparatus under license. The Company was
not provided with the technical information it required to start
manufacturing any of the systems for which it was contractually permitted.
Further, due to the capital market decline in 2001, it proved impossible to
execute the business plan. As a result, in October 2001, the Company
abandoned this license.
5. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable,
accounts payable and advances from stockholder. It is management's opinion
that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit
risks arising from these financial instruments. The fair value of these
financial instruments approximate their carrying values.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations
The Company plans to provide consulting services to small and medium sized
businesses in North America through a network of regionally licensed operators.
The consulting services will be designed to improve a client's profitability
through strategic analysis, planning, consulting and ongoing evaluation. The
Company's core services will attempt to identify inefficiencies and trouble
spots in a business before they cause significant problems.
The Company has tested the Coventure Analysis methodologies on a mid-sized firm
located in Calgary, Alberta. The results proved that the methodology for
assessing business dysfunction was sound, however the Company is refining the
process of presenting the results to its client. The Company's website,
WWW.COVENTURE.COM became active in May 2002.
The Company will be able to provide consulting services once it raises $100,000
in capital. Of this amount, $50,000 will be used to hire and train the analysts
and consultants which will provide these services to future clients and $50,000
will be used to market the Company's products, services, and licensing program.
The Company does not know when it will obtain the $100,000 in capital. The
Company's initial focus will be on the development of Canadian and American
markets.
During the three months ended October 31, 2002 the Company's operations used
$425 in cash. Operating capital was provided from the sale of equipment and cash
on hand at July 31, 2002.
This report contains certain forward-looking statements. The Company wishes to
advise readers that actual results may differ substantially from such
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed in or implied by the statements, including, but not limited to ability
of the Company to meet its cash and working capital needs, the ability of the
Company to maintain its existence as a viable entity, and other risks detailed
in the Company's periodic report filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
