NOTE 1 - THE COMPANY

Gibbs Construction, Inc. (“Gibbs” or the “Company”) was a full service, national commercial construction company located in Garland, Texas.  During 1999, Gibbs experienced significant losses associated with certain construction projects, which were bonded by Gibbs’ primary bonding surety.  In the fourth quarter of 1999, Gibbs’ bonding surety notified Gibbs that it would no longer provide completion and payment bonds for Gibbs’ construction projects.  Given these events, Gibbs began a series of negotiations with its bonding surety in December of 1999, which resulted in a written agreement in January of 2000, whereby the bonding surety would provide funds to finish certain projects and required Gibbs to terminate construction on other projects.  These events led to Gibbs inability to satisfy its debts in the ordinary course of business and on April 20, 2000, Gibbs filed a Petition pursuant to Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code.

On July 28, 2000, Gibbs received permission from its Court of Jurisdiction to solicit approval of its Plan of Reorganization.  Gibbs continued to operate on a limited basis pending approval of its Plan of Reorganization.  On November 10, 2000, Gibbs completed its Plan of Reorganization pursuant to an order of the court as follows:

a)  
Gibbs transferred all of its assets and liabilities to the Gibbs Construction, Inc. Creditor Trust (“Trust”).

b)  
Gibbs issued 501,000 shares of its authorized but previously unissued common stock to the Trust in settlement of unsecured creditor claims.

c)  
Gibbs approved issuance of 1,000,000 shares of a newly created preferred stock, with an aggregate liquidation preference value of $200,000 and a six percent (6%) non-cumulative dividend, to the bonding surety.

d)  
Gibbs issued 4,000,000 shares of its authorized but previously unissued common stock to Thacker Asset Management, LLC (TAM), a Texas limited liability company, in exchange for certain operating assets and the obligation to complete certain construction projects of TAM.

Gibbs did not obtain a court ordered final decree from the bankruptcy court due to the difficulties encountered with the implementation of the reorganization plan.  All operating activities ceased in 2002.  On June 26, 2006, the bankruptcy trustee requested and received an Order for Final Decree.  The 501,000 shares of common stock issued to the Trust were abandoned and returned to the Company on October 5, 2006.  These shares have been cancelled.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Forward-Looking Information
 
The Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other sections of the Form 10-Q contain forward-looking information. The forward-looking information involves risks and uncertainties that are based on current expectations, estimates, and projections about the Company's business, management's beliefs and assumptions made by management. Words such as "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "plans", "believes", "seeks", "estimates", and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking information. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking information due to numerous factors, including, but not limited to, availability of financing for operations, successful performance of internal operations, impact of competition and other risks detailed below as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-QSB and from time to time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports. In addition, general economic and market conditions and growth rates could affect such statements.
 
General
 
For each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003, 2004, and 2005, and for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, the Company had no operations, income, expenses, assets or liabilities or other activity.  With the funding by Mr. Sample of the costs of completing the Company’s bankruptcy proceeding, which was completed in June 2006, Mr. Sample commenced a plan to revive the Company by acquiring automobile auctions.  This plan required the funding by Mr. Sample of certain Company debts which, although discharged in the bankruptcy proceeding, required payment to commence operating as a public entity.  Further, the revival of the Company as a public entity required substantial expenditures for legal and accounting fees, among other costs, in the final three quarters of 2006 and the first two quarters of 2007.
 
The reorganizing of the Company’s capital structure was completed in February 2007.  Simultaneously, the plan required the raising of additional capital and the Company closed a private of common stock in June and July 2007, raising $1,025,000.  In addition, the Company purchased its first automobile auction in July 2007 for stock.
 
The Company plans to seek additional sales of Common Stock through private placements which began in the third quarter of 2007.
 
Restructuring
 
The Company’s plan of restructuring, which was effected in February 2007, amended the corporate charter to effect a one for eight reverse stock split, to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to 150,000,000 and agreed to create and establish a series of preferred stock.  Following, the adoption of the amendments, the company issued to Mr. Sample and Harry K. Myers, an affiliate of the Company prior to Mr. Sample acquiring control of the Company, 8,567,500 shares of Common Stock and 525,000 shares of preferred stock.  See Note 1 to the Notes to Financial Statements herein.
 
On February 1, 2007, the Company’s shareholders approved these actions, including changing the Company’s name to Acacia Automotive, Inc. and the amendment to the Company’s charter was effective February 20, 2007.
 
In the second quarter of 2007, the 525,000 shares of preferred stock were converted to Common Stock.
 
Nine months ended September 30, 2007
 
With the acquisition of the Augusta Auto Auction on July 10, 2007, the Company commenced operations and ceased being a shell company, conducting its first weekly auction on July 11th under Acacia’s management.  The Company’s only operations in the third quarter of 2007 were those operations. The auction had been in operation for several years and in comparing the same period/same store results for Q3 2007 versus Q3 2006, the auction increased the number of vehicles entered and sold as well as fee revenues generated from the sale of those units in the auction process.  While the number of vehicles entered was up 36.9% in the period when compared to the same quarter a year ago, sales were up 44.4%, reflecting a conversion rate of 61.3% versus 58.0% in Q3 2006.  At the same time, revenues from buy and sell fees were up 27.3% in Q3 2007.  Buy/sell fees are the fees paid to the Company by buyers and sellers of the vehicles for satisfactorily effecting a transaction and are the primary source of revenue for the auction.
 
In the quarter ended September 30, the Company twice sold more vehicles during a week than during any other week for which sales records have been kept since January of 2003.
 
9

 
The Company incurred a loss of $1,999,883 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and $186,357 for the quarter ended September 30, 2007.  Of the $1,999,883 loss, $1,548,725 related to non-cash expenses incurred prior to the third quarter of 2007 in connection with the conversion of Preferred Stock to common stock and the issuance of common stock or options to acquire common stock in exchange for services.  Of the expenses incurred in the first nine months, $90,747 was for legal and accounting fees, and employee compensation was $1,418,307, the majority of which was non-cash stock compensation under the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan.
 
Additionally, the Company incurred significant non-recurring expenses at the Augusta auction operation as a result of remodeling and repairs to the facility, acquisition of necessary equipment and supplies to facilitate the new management plan, and certain advertising and promotion of the auction and renovated facility under its new ownership.  The Company also hired additional employees and paid a severance to one departed manager during the period.
 
The Company made a significant investment in a new auction software operating system that is currently in development, and is purchasing and/or leasing substantial technology equipment to modernize the auction and prepare it for operating system enhancements, including static and simulcast selling via the Internet, the ability to communicate electronically with commercial sellers and other vendors, and to significant improve management control and reporting processes.  The Company is moving toward a secure Internet-based system that will provide its management with greater functionality and access to information. The workflow systems are expected to reduce manpower needs and jettison the Company to capabilities not available to the majority of the industry.
 
Liquidity and Need for Additional Capital
 
The Company’s liquidity has been provided through the closing of a private placement of $1,025,000 of common stock in the second quarter of 2007.  The Company will require further private placements to secure the operating capital necessary for its operations until the Company acquires a sufficient number of auctions to fund its corporate overhead.  Further the Company will require these private placements so that it will have the cash resources to acquire additional auctions.
 
Also, the Company will be forced to seek a larger facility for its auction operations in the Augusta area in the immediate future, since the current facility can not accommodate this continued growth.
 
Presently, the Company’s liquidity is supplemented by a $300,000 line of credit with Wachovia Bank, N.A.  Although the Company presently has a certificate of deposit with the same bank of approximately $150,000, this line of credit is used to cover some instances in which payments to dealers selling vehicles through the auction exceeds collected payments for those vehicles.  The Company does not anticipate using the line of credit except occasionally, and anticipates increasing the size of the available line as its sales volume grows.  The bank charges an interest rate on the line of credit equal to prime plus 1.5% on the outstanding daily balance, if any.  The line of credit is secured by all of the Company’s deposits at the bank.
 
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
 
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its President who acts as our Chief Financial Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  During the 90-day period prior to the date of this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures.  Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.  There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls, and no corrective actions taken with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in such controls, subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation of internal controls.
