TFCY News 21st Century Technologies Inc. Announces Review of Financial Statements; Restatement of Previously Filed Financial Statements Will Be Made
LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 5, 2006--21st Century Technologies Inc. (the "Company") (OTC: TFCY.OB) announced today that the current management of the Company has completed a review of prior financial statements filed under previous management regimes. In that review, the Company has discovered items which require restatement. The Company will restate the financial statements for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2003, as well as the three months ended March 31, 2004, the six months ended June 30, 2004, and the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2004. The Company did not give a timetable as to when the restatements would be completed.
Current management deems the restatement is necessary as a result of inaccuracies that have been identified in the prior management regimes' valuations assigned to certain assets of the Company and, to a lesser extent, revenue recognition in previously filed financial statements.

Therefore these financial statements as previously filed can no longer be relied upon.
The Company also stated that, as a result of the restatements, the audit of its fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2004, financial statements is not yet complete and did not give a timetable as to when the audit will be completed.
