What do you mean by "lowtrades". If you have some good info on this stock then buy, otherwise I would have severe reservations. The cnq is Canada's newest exchange. It is for companies that fail to meet the listing requirements of our main penny exchange, the TSX Venture Exchange. Also, this is a very illiquid stock, does not trade much, with a wide bid/ask spread.
Most Americans complain that it is very tough to buy Cdn. stocks through American brokers and they have to pay huge commissions.

Also, one of the things I like about Canadian stocks, is that the trading is very transparent. You can go to www.stockwatch.com and punch in symbols for any Cdn. stocks and see what houses are buying and selling. The cnq is more secretive. It is more like virtual trading center than a real stock exchange.

Lumik company's usually do not let normal people buy prefered shares unless you are close. They might let you do a private placement with them. I do not like to do business with companys that do s-8 and treat share holders like they plan to do.

The only reason I was able to get any info on PERL is I have a subscription to www.stockwatch.com I can not find any other site with info.
The last news they had was a $500,000 private placement on Dec. 15/03.
They are from Hutchinson Kansas and there is 27,825,555 shares outstanding. Phone 620 662 3697
Their main asset is ownership of 25 million shares of Balaton Power BPWRF which trades at around 50 cents. www.balatonpower.com

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS APRIL 30, 2004 (Unaudited) 1. Significant accounting policies Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the financial position, results of operations and cash flow of the Corporation, and its subsidiary. Other entitles which are not controlled but over which the Corporation has the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Basis of presentation These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Resource properties All costs related to investments in resource properties are capitalized on a property-byproperty basis. Such costs include resource claim acquisition costs and exploration and development expenditures, net of any recoveries. The costs related to a property from which there is production, together with the costs of equipment, will be depleted and amortized using the unit-of-production method. When there is little prospect of further work on a property being carried out by the Company or its partners or when a property is abandoned, the related property costs are written off. The amounts shown for resource properties represent costs incurred to date and are not intended to reflect present or future values. Foreign currency translation The company uses the Canadian dollar as its functional currency and the accounts have been translated using the temporal method of foreign currency translation as follows: - revenue and expense items at the rate of exchange in effect on the transaction date - non-monetary assets and liabilities at historical exchange rates - monetary assets and liabilities at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date Cash and cash equivalents For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Financial Instruments The company considers the fair value of all financial Instruments to be not materially different from their carrying value at year-end. 2. Investment in significantly influenced company On October 31, 2002 the Company acquired from its wholly owned subsidiary, Continental Resources (USA) Ltd. (“Continental”) all of the oil and gas interests held by the subsidiary in exchange for a promissory note and the assumption of debt. No gain or loss was recognized on this transaction. The note is non-interest bearing and is payable from 25% of the gross production revenue of the oil and gas properties. Subsequent to the transfer of the oil and gas properties of Continental to the Company, the Company entered into an agreement to transfer 100% of the common shares of Continental in exchange for 25,000,000 restricted common shares of Balaton Power Inc. (“Balaton”) that represented a 41.67% ownership interest in Balaton and is presently 36.89%. This investment is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Balaton is currently engaged in the development of a bauxite deposit in India through its wholly owned subsidiary Continental 3. Notes payable 4. Subsequent event City Source Net Corporation (“City”), a shareholder of the Company, has agreed to subscribe for up to 4,500,000 common shares of the Company at a purchase price of $0.25 per share. This offer is conditional on the ability of City to raise funds. At an annual and special meeting of shareholders held October 31, 2002, the company was authorized to convey from its wholly-owned subsidiary, Continental Resources (USA) Ltd., all of the oil and gas properties/interests held by Continental Resources (USA) Ltd., in exchange of a promissory note issued by the company. The note is non-interest bearing and is payable upon 25% of the gross production revenue derived from the conveyed oil and gas properties/interests. The company has obtained a line of credit to a maximum of $120,000 U.S. from a company related to a shareholder of the Company. The loan bears interest at 7.5% per annum payable at maturity and is due February 1, 2006. The Company may repay the loan at any time without penalty. The loan is secured by a 5% interest in the natural resource properties of the Company. April 30, 2004 January 31, 2004 $628,129 $628,129 96,171 122,818 $724,300 $750,847
