TRIST HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1.    Nature of business and significant accounting policies
 
We were incorporated in the State of Delaware as Camryn Information Services, Inc. on May 13, 1997. We operated for a brief period of time before we ceased operations on February 25, 1999 when we forfeited our charter for failure to designate a registered agent. We remained dormant until 2004 when we renewed our operations with the filing of a Certificate of Renewal and Revival of Charter with the State of Delaware on October 29, 2004. On November 3, 2004, we filed a Certificate of Amendment and our name was formally changed from Camryn Information Services, Inc. to iStorage Networks, Inc. Such change became effective on November 8, 2004.  On January 26, 2006, iStorage issued 8,200,000 shares of restricted stock (post-split) in exchange for all of the assets and liabilities of LLC. iStorage changed its name to Landbank Group, Inc. on January 27, 2006.   LLC made bulk acquisitions of parcels of land, primarily through the real property tax lien foreclosure process. The bulk acquisitions were then divided into smaller parcels for resale. On December 31, 2007, we transferred LLC to LALLC, ceased business operations, and changed our name to Trist Holdings, Inc.
 
On October 19, 2009, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement of the same date between LALLC, the Company’s former majority stockholder, and Woodman Management Corporation and Europa International, Inc., LALLC sold to Woodman and Europa an aggregate of 79,311,256 shares of Company common stock as well as all notes and liabilities due LALLC from the Company in exchange for aggregate cash consideration equal to $165,000.
 
The sale resulted in a change in control of the Company whereby each purchaser acquired 39,655,628 shares of Company common stock, which shares represent, 44.43% individually, or 88.9% in the aggregate, of the Company’s outstanding common stock.  Each purchaser also became a party to the Company’s Registration Rights Agreement dated December 31, 2007 between the Company and LALLC.
 
Basis of Presentation — The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by GAAP for complete annual financial statement presentation.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.  Operating results for the three-months ended March 31, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for other interim periods or for the full year then ended December 31, 2010.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the Securities Exchange Commission.
 
Going Concern — Since inception, the Company and its former subsidiary have a cumulative net loss of $2,756, 839.  Since inception, the Company has also been dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its operations.  The Company currently has no source of operating revenue, and has only limited working capital with which to pursue its business plan, which contemplates the completion of a business combination with an operating company.  The amount of capital required to sustain operations until the successful completion of a business combination is subject to future events and uncertainties.  It may be necessary for the Company to secure additional working capital through loans or sales of common stock, and there can be no assurance that such funding will be available in the future.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been presented on the basis of the continuation of the Company as a going concern and do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
- 6 -

On March 26, 2010, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) with Z&Z Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Trist (“MergerCo”), and Z&Z Medical Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Z&Z”). Subject to the closing of the Merger, it is intended that Trist will issue, pursuant to a proposed Securities Purchase Agreement to be entered into immediately following the closing of the Merger, 2.5% Senior Secured Convertible Notes, having a total principal amount of $1,500,000 (the “Notes”), to W-Net Fund I, L.P., Europa and MKM Opportunity Master Fund (the “Capital Raise Transaction”), to obtain necessary operating capital to implement Z&Z’s business plan. The Notes will pay 2.5% interest per annum with a maturity of 4 years after the closing of the Capital Raise Transaction.  No cash interest payments will be required, except that accrued and unconverted interest shall be due on the maturity date and on each conversion date with respect to the principal amount being converted, provided that such interest may be added to and included with the principal amount being converted.  Whereas this transaction will provide funding for the Company, we expect there to be increased expenses as such we will need to obtain more funding.
 
Use of Estimates —The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America 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.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had  no cash equivalents, respectively.
 
Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”).  Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
 
Net Loss Per Share — Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each reporting period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants, using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period.  The Company currently has no dilutive securities and as such, basic and diluted loss per share are the same for all periods presented.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash.  The Company maintains its cash with high credit quality financial institutions; at times, such balances with any one financial institution may exceed FDIC insured limits.
 
Fair value of Financial Instruments -
 
The carrying amounts of the Company’s  financial instruments in the accompanying balance sheets approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term nature. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to any significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements 
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 105 Accounting Standards Codification TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM (the “Codification”) has become the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). All existing accounting standard documents are superseded by the Codification and any accounting literature not included in the Codification will not be authoritative. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC issued under the authority of federal securities laws, however, will continue to be the source of authoritative generally accepted accounting principles for SEC registrants. Effective September 30, 2009, all references made to GAAP in our consolidated financial statements will include references to the new Codification. The Codification does not change or alter existing GAAP and, therefore, will not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
- 7 -

In June 2009, the FASB issued changes to the consolidation guidance applicable to a variable interest entity (VIE). FASB ASC Topic 810, "Consolidation," amends the guidance governing the determination of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, and is, therefore, required to consolidate an entity, by requiring a qualitative analysis rather than a quantitative analysis. The qualitative analysis will include, among other things, consideration of who has the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and who has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. This standard also requires continuous reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. FASB ASC 810 also requires enhanced disclosures about an enterprise's involvement with a VIE. Topic 810 is effective as of the beginning of interim and annual reporting periods that begin after November 15, 2009. This will not have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
NOTE 2 - Note Payable - Related Party and Revolving Note Payable – Related Party
 
On December 31, 2007, we executed a Demand Promissory Note (the “Demand Note”) payable to Landbank Acquisition LLC, in the principal amount of $500,000 with simple interest on the unpaid principal from the date of the note at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum.  Landbank Acquisition LLC was related to the Company through common major shareholders. The Note was due on demand.
 
On October 19, 2009, we entered into a Revolving Promissory Note (the “Revolving Note”) with Landbank.   Under the terms of the Revolving Note, Landbank agreed to advance to the Company, from time to time and at the request of the Company, amounts up to an aggregate of $500,000 until October 19, 2010.  All advances shall be paid on or before October 19, 2010 and interest shall accrue from the date of any advances on any principal amount withdrawn, and on accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, compounded annually.  The Company’s obligations under the Revolving Note will accelerate upon a bankruptcy event of the Company, any default by the Company of its payment obligations under the Revolving Note or the breach by the Company of any provision of any material agreement between the Company and the noteholder.  At March 31, 2010, $386,518 was outstanding under the Revolving Note.  
 
In connection with the Share Purchase Agreement dated October 19, 2009 date between LALLC, Woodman and Europa, the Note was assigned to Woodman and Europa in equal parts. The Revolving Note was cancelled, and new notes (the “Replacement Notes”) were issued by the Company to Woodman and Europa on October 19, 2009. The Replacement Notes contain identical terms and conditions to the Note, except that each Replacement Note provides that the noteholder will advance up to $250,000.  As of the date of the Replacement Notes, $168,259 was deemed outstanding under each Replacement Note. 
 
As part of the transactions consummated under the Share Purchase Agreement dated October 19, 2009 date between LALLC, Woodman and Europa, the purchasers also acquired the Replacement Notes (as described above) and the Demand Note in the principal amount of $500,000 dated December 31, 2007.  The Demand Note was cancelled and new notes (the “Replacement Demand Notes”) were issued by the Company to the Purchasers.  The Replacement Demand Notes contain identical terms and conditions to the Demand Note, except that each Replacement Demand Note was issued in the principal amount of $250,000.  
 
We recorded an interest expense of $17,398 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.  On October 19, 2009, the accrued interested owed to the related parties was included in the amount of the Revolving Note.  The accrued interest at March 31, 2010 amounting to $31,183, was included as part of amount due to related party.
 
NOTE 3 – Subsequent Events
 
In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through May 8, 2010, the date the financial statements were issued.
 
On March 26, 2010, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) with Z&Z Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Trist (“MergerCo”), and Z&Z Medical Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Z&Z”).

Under the Merger Agreement, if all conditions are satisfied or waived: (a) MergerCo will be merged with and into Z&Z; (b) Z&Z will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Trist; (c) all holdings of Z&Z shares, warrants and options will be exchanged (or assumed, in the case of warrants and options) for comparable securities of Trist; and (d) approximately 98% of the beneficial ownership of Trist shares (on a fully-diluted basis) will be owned by Z&Z stockholders, warrant holders and option holders (the “Merger”).  Upon consummation of the Merger, the combined entity will be solely engaged in Z&Z’s business, Z&Z’s officers will become the officers of Trist and three of Z&Z’s directors will become members of Trist’s 7-member board of directors (which will have two vacancies following the Merger).

ITEM 2 –  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, and the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report.

References to “Trist” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Trist Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise specifically defines.

Overview

Currently, we are seeking suitable candidates for a business combination with a private company.  The Company’s principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with an operating business. The Company will not restrict its potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results may materially differ from our estimates.

Results of Operations

For the three-months ended March 31, 2010.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Operating expenses were $96,015 and $55,792 for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to increased legal fees.

Interest Expense

Interest expenses were $17,398 and $12,328 for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, an increase of $5,070. The increase is due from increases in debt.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash used in operating activities was $32,809 and $59,221 in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $30,000 and $59,221 in the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

We suffered recurring losses from operations and have an accumulated deficit of $2,756,728 at March 31, 2010.  Currently, we are a non-operating public company. We seek suitable candidates for a business combination with a private company.  In the event we use all of our cash resources, Woodman and Europa have indicated their willingness to loan us funds at the prevailing market rate until such business combination is consummated.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1), we are not required to provide the information required by this Item 3.
 
ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES  

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act 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 our management, including our interim President, who serves as our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our interim President reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Rule 240.13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) of the Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based upon this evaluation, our interim President concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the quarter covered by this Form 10-Q.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
