World Associates Releases 1st Quarter Results

LOS ANGELES, May 28, 2004 -- World Associates, Inc. filed Form 10-QSB with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the period ending March 31, 2004. The Company is pleased to report a significant gain totaling $4,970,000 during the first quarter of 2004. The gain was the result of a one-time settlement that provided for certain preferred stock valued at $7,400,000 to be cancelled, among other things. It does not reflect income from operations.

In other company business, Superior Real Estate, Inc., ("Superior", a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) announced that the first Infill home located in Beaumont, CA is complete. There are several other homes already in the pipeline and there have been multiple offers. The first is listed for $315,000, in keeping with the Company's aim of providing affordable housing in the California real estate market.

On the land development front, Superior owns a property located in Yucca Valley, CA that will be sold when a tract map is complete. It is currently listed for $1,300,000 and consists of 8.88 acres that are being approved for 96 multi-family units. There have already been multiple offers on this property. The market for fully approved land in California remains strong.

The Company also announced the following management changes: LeRoy West will replace Robert O'Leary as President of the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Superior Real Estate, Inc. He will also assume responsibility for the day-to-day development operations. Another change was made when the Board of Directors reluctantly accepted the resignation of long-time Member, Stephen Danner, C.P.A. Mr. Danner's firm of Kane, Hoffman and Danner was recently purchased by the accounting firm of Mahoney, Cohen and Company. Mahoney, Cohen and Company has a policy that precludes its partners from serving as a Board Member of any public company, and their acquisition of his firm required him to step down as Director. Mr. Danner remains a shareholder and investor of World Associates, Inc.
