(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in U.S. Dollars) November 30, 1999 (Unaudited) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. GENERAL The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation for each of the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be achieved for full fiscal years. As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been condensed and do not contain certain information that will be included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended August 31, 1999 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rompus Interactive Corp. (Rompus) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Rompus CD-ROM Production Ltd. (Rompus-BC). On July 30, 1999, Rompus, a non-operating public company with 16,601,573 Common shares outstanding and immaterial net assets, acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Rompus-BC from various shareholders (the Acquisition). The Acquisition resulted in the owners and management of Rompus-BC having effective control of the combined entity. Under generally accepted accounting principles, the Acquisition is considered to be a capital transaction in substance, rather than a business combination. That is, the Acquisition is equivalent to the issuance of stock by Rompus-BC for the net monetary assets of Rompus, accompanied by a recapitalization, and is accounted for as a change in capital structure. Accordingly, the accounting for the Acquisition is identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill is recorded. Under reverse takeover accounting, the post reverse-acquisition comparative historical financial statements of the "legal acquirer" (Rompus), are those of the "legal acquiree" (Rompus-BC) (i.e. the accounting acquirer). 7 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROMPUS INTERACTIVE CORP. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in U.S. Dollars) November 30, 1999 (Unaudited) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. GENERAL (CONTINUED) Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements of Rompus are the historical financial statements of Rompus-BC for the periods presented adjusted for the following transactions contained in the Share Exchange Agreement executed at the consummation of the Acquisition. The basic structure and terms of the Acquisition, together with the applicable accounting effects, is as follows: - - Rompus acquired all of the outstanding shares of Common stock of Rompus-BC from various shareholders in exchange for 4,500,000 shares of newly issued Common stock of Rompus and 9,000,000 shares of newly issued Preferred stock of Rompus. The 9,000,000 Preferred shares will eventually be cancelled as the outstanding Exchangeable shares of Rompus-BC are exchanged for Common shares of Rompus. The Common stock and Preferred stock exchange, in addition to the existing Rompus shares outstanding, collectively resulted in the recapitalization of the Company. Loss per share calculations include the Company's change in capital structure for all periods presented. INCOME TAXES Income taxes for the interim periods were computed using the effective tax rate estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year, which is subject to ongoing review and evaluation by management. LOSS PER SHARE The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 128, EARNINGS PER SHARE. SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shares by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock. 8 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROMPUS INTERACTIVE CORP. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in U.S. Dollars) November 30, 1999 (Unaudited) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LOSS PER SHARE (CONTINUED) The following are the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations for the periods presented: NOVEMBER 30, November 30, 1999 1998 --------------- ------------- Net loss $ (4,409,667) $ (3,449) =============== ============== Weighted average shares outstanding 7,601,573 7,601,573 =============== ============== Basic and diluted loss per Common share $ (0.58) $ 0.00 =============== ============== At November 30, 1999, there were 9,000,000 Exchangeable shares of Rompus-BC outstanding. Each of these Exchangeable shares is exchangeable for one Common share of Rompus. These shares were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would be antidilutive. There were stock options outstanding at November 30, 1999, to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock which were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would be antidilutive. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. COMPENSATION AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES EXPENSE AND STOCK OPTIONS The Company has a stock option plan accounted for under APB Opinion 25 and related interpretations. The plan allows the Company to grant options to directors and employees up to an aggregate of 1,750,000 common shares. The options, which have a term expiring September 30, 2002 vest October 15, 1999. The exercise price for each option is $0.80 per share. On September 24, 1999 the company issued 1,300,000 of these options when the quoted market price was $3.00 per share. The exercise price is below the market price and accordingly a compensation expense is recognized. These options were recorded as compensation and professional services expense of $2.20 per option for a total of $2,860,000. 9 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROMPUS INTERACTIVE CORP. (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY) NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in U.S. Dollars) November 30, 1999 (Unaudited) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. COMPENSATION AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES EXPENSE AND STOCK OPTIONS (CONTINUED) Entities that continue to account for stock options using APB Opinion No. 25 are required to make pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share, as if the fair value based method of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. Had compensation cost for the above stock option plan been determined based on the fair value of the options at the grant dates consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and diluted earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below: Net loss As reported $ (4,409,667) Pro forma $ (4,565,667) Net loss per share, Basic and Diluted As reported $ (0.58) Pro forma $ (0.60) The Company also has a stock option plan accounted for under SFAS no. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". The plan allows the Company to grant options to non-employees for consideration for services rendered up to an aggregate of 400,000 common shares. The options, which have a term expiring September 30, 2002 vest October 15, 1999. The exercise price for each option is $0.80 per share. The standard contains a fair value based method for valuing stock-based compensation that entities may use, and measures compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. Compensation is then recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants. Expected volatility of 0%; risk free interest rate of 5.75% and 6.10%; and expected lives of 3 years. The estimated fair value of each option was determined to be $2.32. On September 24, 1999 the company issued 400,000 of these options. These options were recorded as compensation and professional services expense of $2.32 per option for a total of $928,000. 10 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROMPUS INTERACTIVE CORP.

UNCERTAINTY DUE TO YEAR 2000 ISSUE The Year 2000 Issue arises because many computerized systems use two digits rather than four to identify a year. Date-sensitive systems may recognize the year 2000 as 1900 or some other date, resulting in errors when information using year 2000 dates is processed. In addition, similar problems may arise in some systems that use certain dates in 1999 to represent something other than a date. The effects of the Year 2000 Issue may be experienced before, on, or after January 1, 2000, and, if not addressed, the impact on operations and financial reporting may range from minor errors to significant systems failure, which could affect an entity's ability to conduct normal business operations. It is not possible to be certain that all aspects of the Year 2000 Issue affecting the company, including those relating to the efforts of customers, suppliers, or other third parties will be fully resolved. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. INDUSTRY SEGMENT AND FOREIGN SALES INFORMATION Management has determined that it operates in one industry segment. For the three months ended November 30, 1999, the company's sales were distributed as follows: Canada $ 109,311 (1998 - $Nil) United States $ 28,270 (1998 - $Nil) Puerto Rico $ 1,600 (1998 - $Nil) 12 PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED) Item 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Rompus Interactive Corp. (the "Company" or "Rompus") was first incorporated as Mercur Enterprises, Inc. in August, 1991 in the state of Florida. Reinstated in August, 1995, the Company changed its name to AutoMetreks, Inc. on January 3, 1997, and traded on the OTC/BB under the symbol ATMT until April 5, 1999. The Company changed its name to OnLine Hearing Dot Com, Co. on April 6, 1999. The Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Rompus CD-ROM Production Ltd., is incorporated under the laws of the province of British Columbia ("Rompus-BC"). Effective July 30, 1999, the Company entered into a share exchange with Rompus-BC wherein the Company acquired all of the common stock of Rompus-BC in exchange for common and preferred stock of the Company. On July 30, 1999, the Company changed its name to Rompus Interactive Corp. The Company commenced trading on the OTC/BB as IDCD and currently trades on the over the counter market as IDCD. With headquarters in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, the Company's business focuses on providing innovative multimedia solutions to companies in e-commerce and Internet marketing. The Company has developed an innovative product known as the i.d.rom-TM-. An i.d.rom-TM- is a CD-ROM shaped like a business card, on which 40 MB of data can be stored. When placed in a standard computer, it automatically plays its multimedia content then connects to the issuer's web site. This product allows a company, regardless of its size or its industry to market its image and products anywhere using leading edge multimedia technology. The concept is simple yet unique. Rompus is able to provide businesses worldwide with the technical, design and manufacturing means to better meet the demands of their markets. It does this by producing interactive multimedia presentations to fulfill its clients' communications needs, and delivering them in the i.d.rom-TM- package. PLAN OF OPERATIONS The following discussion contains figures relating to plans, expectations, future results, performance, events or other matters that are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. When used in the Plan of Operations (see section below), words such as "estimate", "project", "intend", "expect", "anticipate" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties pertaining to technology, development of the Company's products, and markets for such products, timing and level of customer orders, competitive products and pricing, changes in economic conditions and markets for the Company's products and other risks and uncertainties. Actual results, performance and events are likely to differ and may differ materially and adversely. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as to the date of the Plan of Operations, being August 31, 1999, the date of the Company's last-completed fiscal year. The Company undertakes no obligation to release or deliver to investors revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of the Plan of Operations, the occurrence of unanticipated events or other matters. Operational references refer to the Company's operating subsidiary, Rompus-BC. The Company began operations in February 1998 for the purpose of developing its multimedia proprietary product: the i.d.rom. The Company has a limited operating history on which to evaluate its prospects. The risks, expense, and difficulties encountered by startup companies must be considered when evaluating the Company's prospects. The Company's plan of operations for the next twelve months is to further develop its products while seeking strategic alliances with media and Internet-related companies in order to demonstrate its technology to companies and consumers. The Company believes that its existing funds in combination with funds raised in private offerings and the revenues generated by its operations will be sufficient to fund its operations for the next twelve 13 months. However, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise sufficient capital. Additionally, the Company's estimates of the costs to advertise and market its product might be low. The operating expenses of the Company cannot be predicted with certainty. They will depend on several factors, including the amount of marketing expenses, the acceptance of the Company's products in the market, and competition for such product. Management may be able to control the timing of development expenses in part by speeding up or slowing down marketing development and distribution activities. A significant portion of the money recently raised in private placements of the Company's securities will be used to launch its products through a variety of sales channels as well as to create a provocative advertising and public relations campaign. In the first year, $1.8 million has been allocated to penetrate the market quickly and to capitalize on this limited window of opportunity. The Company's forecasted plan of operations for the twelve months ending November 30, 2000 consist of the following key figures: - Revenues totaling $ 13,782,000 - Costs of Sales $ 6,375,000 - Sales Commissions $ 1,497,000 - Wages and Salaries $ 1,954,000 - Promotion and Advertising $ 825,000 - Research and Development Costs $ 340,000 - Office and General $ 300,000 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following is management's discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Detailed information is contained in the financials included with this document. This section contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of the Company's plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. The cautionary statements made in this document should be read as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this document. Since inception, the Company has funded its capital requirements by financing activities, substantially through the sale of its equity securities. The Company anticipates that revenues generated by orders for the id.rom should be sufficient to fund the Company's operations over the next 12 months. As the operating entity, Rompus-BC, has only recently had operational activities so there is no comparative period available for analysis by management. The Company's product, i.d.rom, was launched for marketing purposes in September, 1999 and only limited test marketing was conducted prior to that. Therefore, the financial statements for the quarter ending November 30, 1999 only reflect some actual operations, start-up expenses and financing costs. The current sales activity is quite high but has occurred only recently. The Company is actively seeking additional financing to sustain its rate of growth of personnel and related infrastructure. The degree of success and timing of same will dictate whether the Company continues to grow or must reduce operations in order to live within cash availability and cash generated by sales. Until this is resolved, management is trying to defer major expenses while focusing on generating cash through sales. Sales expectations are excellent and all indicators show that the forecasted Revenues for the year ending August 31, 2000 should be met and exceeded. However, the selling cycle has been much longer than anticipated and the next few months will be critical to the Company's success. 14 In the meantime, concerted efforts are underway to obtain a financing commitment, which appears to be forthcoming during the month of February, 2000. Until then, the Company continues to operate as conservatively as possible. 15 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
