Letter from the Chairman and President

To our stockholders, employees and customers:

Our net income for 2021, the fourth operating year of Penguin Coast, was
lower than expected. Net income was $50 in 2021, $50 lower than the previous
year in which net income was $100.
While we understand this is not ideal, we know this decrease can be
attributed to several things. One of these things is several unprecedented
miscellaneous expenses, higher than previous years. The (chance and community
chest) cards were not in our favor this year as much as we had hoped, driving up
our expenses to exceed the amount of our miscellaneous revenues by more than
50%. Also, our local opponents seemed to be successful, in part due to our
expenses. We take full responsibility for this roll of the dice and are confident we
will see more profitability in our future. To ensure we do not have a repeat of
2021, we have already started making a few changes. Some of these changes
include relocating our franchises to busier areas and changing our days and hours
of operation; we will be open Monday-Saturday instead of Tuesday-Friday, and we
plan to stay open an additional two hours each night as we started seeing business
increase in the later hours. We also plan to shake the dice around a little longer
before rolling and know the odds of rolling them the same as 2021 are slim to
none.
We understand we should have made these adjustments earlier, perhaps
during the year, and we take full responsibility for this. Since we were so profitable
in our first year of business, we overestimated our profit margin for year two, and
our net income has been on the decline ever since. We are expecting to see this
trend reverse this year as a result of the changes we are implementing.
Here at Penguin Coast, we are not solely profit-minded. Profits do drive us
forward and allow us to meet our goals, but are brand is defined by our culture
within the company and our customer service that extends beyond our corporation.
Our dedication to these areas is what will make us successful in the long run, and
we believe our profitability will start to reflect the quality of our culture after this
year. Our customers come first, and we are determined to show that by serving
those who have allowed us to get to this point. The future is promising, and we are
excited for this year.

Sincerely,

Anna E. Giles
Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer, Penguin Coast
Management Discussion and Analysis

Penguin Coast hoped for higher profits in year four than what we got. Net income
was down 50% from year three, from $100 to $50. Assets were also down $25, and
cash is still significantly lower than our goal but nonetheless higher than year
three.

Because we do not have a monopoly in any color group, our rent revenue was
significantly lower than that of our local opponents. We were more profitable in
our first year of business, when our opponents were start-ups as well and our
expenses were much lower. From year one to year four, our expenses have
increased tremendously causing our net income to be lower in years like this one.

Our expenses come from landing on our opponents’ property, landing on an


unowned space that charges us a miscellaneous expense or drawing a card that
does the same, and paying income taxes from the previous year. Our revenues are
similar: our opponents pay us for landing on our property, we are entitled to
receive money as a result of drawing a card or landing on a certain space, (Free
Parking) and passing go.

We can increase our profitability by buying more property, causing our revenue to
increase by the chances of our opponents landing on our property increasing.
However, at some point, all the property in the area was purchased, and we did not
maximize our land ownership potential.

We plan to strategize in the future by spending more time volunteering at the local
jail so that we can still collect rent revenue but are not susceptible to paying it. We
also plan to pass go more frequently. If these two events occur simultaneously, we
will certainly see a greater increase in profits from year four to year five than we
did from year three to year four.

Penguin Coast has no outstanding loans, debts, or mortgages. Additionally, the value of our
property did not depreciate because we did not build any houses or hotels. All of our property
was acquired in our first two years of business, so their value did not change from year three to
year four.
