13 Dec 2005security holder rights change● Neutral

On December 7, 2005 the board declared a shareholder rights dividend (a 'poison pill'): one right per share for holders of record on December 16, 2005, subject to signing a definitive agreement. The rights become exercisable if someone acquires 15% or more of the voting power without board approval, letting other holders buy shares at a discount; the board can redeem them for $0.001 each. This makes a hostile takeover harder; it does not change the business.

On November 25, 2005 the company dismissed Hein & Associates, hired a year earlier, and engaged Epstein Weber & Conover PLC as auditor. The filing says Hein's reports included a going-concern qualification for fiscal 2004 and that there were no disagreements. This is the second auditor change in about a year, continuing the October 2004 change.

30 May 2003asset acquisition disposition▼ Bad

This amendment supplies the financial statements promised in the April 2003 report: audited accounts of El Capitan Precious Metals (Delaware) from July 26, 2002 (inception) to September 30, 2002. They show a net loss of $21,577, cash of $101,105, liabilities of $140,173 (including $120,000 of related-party notes), and an auditor's going-concern warning. The notes describe the mine as inactive, with no proven reserves, and the 40% interest as acquired from Gold and Minerals Company, Inc. for 775 shares and $100,000 cash. Pro forma figures are not presented because they would be virtually identical.

2 Apr 2003asset acquisition disposition● NeutralMajor

On March 18, 2003 the shell company DML Services, Inc. acquired El Capitan Precious Metals, Inc. (a Delaware company) for 13,000,000 new shares, giving the El Capitan holders 85% of the company, and took the El Capitan name. The day before, it sold its catering and foodservice business to two of its officers (Michael and Deborah Flores) for the return of 10,040,000 shares plus $50,000 cash. The company now owns a 40% interest in the El Capitan mine near Capitan, New Mexico; this explains the earlier late-filing notice and registered offerings now sitting under a new business. Financial statements and pro forma figures were promised in a later amendment.
