Board of Directors
e-Net, Inc.
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of e-Net, Inc. (a
Delaware Corporation) as of September 30, 1999, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the six-month
periods ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, and the statements of operations for
the three month periods ended September 30, 1999 and 1998. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements for them to be in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the balance sheet as of March 31, 1999, and the related statements of
operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not
presented herein), and in our report dated June 10, 1999, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying condensed balance sheet as of March
31, 1999 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the balance
sheet from which it has been derived.

e-NET, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of e-Net, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, ZeroPlus.com, Inc.,
(collectively, the "Company"), which was incorporated in June 1999. Such
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission; accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
considered necessary for a fair presentation (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) have been included. The consolidated results of operations for the
quarter and six months ended September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative
of the results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2000. The accompanying
unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999.
NOTE B--RESTRUCTURING COSTS
During the quarter ended June 30, 1999 the Company recorded a charge of
approximately $1.7 million related primarily to a restructuring program that is
expected to be fully implemented by December 31, 1999. The charge includes a
provision for reductions in the carrying value of various Company assets and the
accrual of expenses related to the Company's network gateway equipment
activities. The other accrued expenses related to restructuring costs at
September 30, 1999 were approximately $156,000 and was associated with estimated
equipment and support costs. The restructuring effort, a refinement of the
Company's previously announced "niche" strategy, refocuses the Company's
operating model based on a comprehensive strategy of making voice and telephony
functions easily available at common entry points to digital data networks. The
Company intends to use its core technology competency in advancement of its
voice-over-digital data networks business by exploiting markets that it believes
pose fewer competitive risks.
NOTE C--INVENTORY
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value. As indicated
in Note B above, the carrying value of inventory has been eliminated as a part
of the restructuring program. The Company continues to maintain the physical
inventory of equipment and integrated circuit boards. Any proceeds received
resulting from inventory disposal will be recorded in the period received.
NOTE D--SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
The Company has capitalized certain software development costs incurred
after establishing technological feasibility. Software costs will be amortized
over the estimated useful life of the software once the product is available for
general release to customers. As indicated in Note B above, the capitalized
software carrying value has been eliminated as a part of the restructuring
program.
NOTE E--LINE OF CREDIT FACILITY
On June 25, 1999, the Company signed a one (1) year promissory note for
a $1,000,000 line of credit facility that is secured by investments, receivables
and fixed assets of the Company.
NOTE F--NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION PLAN
At September 30, 1999, the Company had two stock-based compensation
plans. As permitted under generally accepted accounting principles, grants under
those plans are accounted for following APB Opinion No. 25 and related
interpretations. Accordingly, only the compensation cost associated with grants
to non-employees or non-directors of the Company have been recognized in the
amount of $34,902 for the six months ended September 30, 1999. All options
granted to employees are non-compensatory.
NOTE G--INCOME TAXES
The Company has generated net operating losses since its inception. At
September 30, 1999, the Company recorded a valuation allowance in an amount
equal to the deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of generating future
taxable income.
NOTE H--CONCENTRATION
All of the Company's accounts receivable balance at September 30, 1999
were from one customer, and approximately 97% of the Company's sales for the six
months ended September 30, 1999, were from two customers.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS.
This information should be read in conjunction with the Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the
consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the our Annual Report
on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SECOND QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
NET SALES
Sales for the second quarter ended September 30, 1999 were
approximately $118,500, a decrease of 63% over the approximately $317,200
recorded for the corresponding quarter of 1998. The revenue decrease was due to
a shift in focus from sales of our Telecom 2000 customer premises-based gateway
- - medium systems products to our restructuring efforts described below. The
services sales for the quarter ended September 30, 1999, were primarily from one
customer. Through the end of the second quarter ended September 30, 1999 we
have recorded no sales from our wholly-owned subsidiary ZeroPlus.com, Inc.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profits for the second quarter ended September 30, 1999 were
approximately $16,300 or 14% of sales, compared to the approximately $187,400 or
59% of sales for the corresponding quarter of 1998. The amount of gross profit
decrease was due to reduced product sales resulting from a shift in focus from
sales of our Telecom 2000 customer premises-based gateway - medium systems
products to our restructuring efforts described below.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Selling, general & administrative expenses for the second quarter ended
September 30, 1999, were approximately $1,462,500, a decrease of 9% over the
approximately $1,609,100 recorded for the corresponding quarter of 1998. The
dollar decrease in these expenses over the prior year reflected reduced spending
for personnel and programs consistent with the shift in focus from sales of our
Telecom 2000 customer premises-based gateway - medium systems products to our
restructuring efforts described below.
Research & development expenses for the second quarter ended September
30, 1999, were approximately $503,800, a 30% decrease over the approximately
$718,900 recorded for the corresponding quarter of 1998. The decreased
expenditures for research and development are due to the decrease in number of
employees and other expenditures devoted to the general development of the
Company's technology products.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)
Other income (expense) for the second quarter ended September 30, 1999,
was approximately $(11,400), a decrease over the approximately $106,400 recorded
for the corresponding quarter of 1998. In the second quarter ended September 30,
1999, the Company's other income and expenses included interest income, which
decreased over 1998 due to the use of investments to fund working capital
requirements.
SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
NET SALES
Net sales for the six months ended September 30, 1999 were
approximately $276,200, a decrease of 63% over the approximately $750,500
recorded for the corresponding period of 1998. The revenue decrease was due to a
shift in focus from sales of our Telecom 2000 customer premises-based gateway -
medium systems products to our restructuring efforts described below. Product
sales were only approximately $3,300 in the six months ended September 30, 1999
compared to $435,800 recorded for the corresponding period of 1998. The services
sales for the six months ended September 30, 1999 were primarily from two
customers. Through the end of the second quarter ended September 30, 1999 we
have recorded no sales from our wholly-owned subsidiary ZeroPlus.com, Inc.
GROSS PROFIT
-10-
Gross profits for the six months ended September 30, 1999 were
approximately $75,700 or 27% of sales, compared to approximately $387,100 or 52%
of sales for the corresponding period of 1998. The amount of gross profit
decrease was due to reduced product sales resulting from a shift in focus from
sales of our Telecom 2000 customer premises-based gateway - medium systems
products to our restructuring efforts described below.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Selling, general & administrative expenses for the six months ended
September 30, 1999 were approximately $2,994,200, a decrease of 5% over the
approximately $3,141,900 recorded for the corresponding period of 1998. These
expenses reflected decreased spending for personnel, advertising and substantial
marketing expenditures made in connection with promotion of our Telecom 2000
technology products. During the six months ended September 30, 1998 selling,
general & administrative expenses included significant costs associated with
advertising and tradeshows that we did not incur in the corresponding period in
1999. However, we incurred additional expenses for personnel, travel, and other
management efforts in connection with our shift in focus from sales of our
Telecom 2000 customer premises-based gateway - medium systems products to our
restructuring efforts described below.
Restructuring costs in the six months ended September 30, 1999 were
approximately $1,710,000. The costs were related primarily to a refinement of
our previously announced "niche" strategy. The charge includes a provision
for reductions in the carrying value of various assets and the accrual of
expenses related to our network gateway equipment activities. We are in the
process of further refining our operating model, in the direction
contemplated by our previously announced "niche" strategy, toward a
comprehensive strategy of making voice and telephony functions available at
common entry points to digital data networks. We intend to use our core
technology competency in voice-over-digital data networks by exploiting
markets that we believe pose fewer competitive risks.
The formation of a wholly owned subsidiary, ZeroPlus.com, Inc., in
June 1999, to offer a free software-only voice-over-internet product, is the
first example of our effort. Market access points upon which we intend to
refocus include Telecom 2000 desktop - small systems and selected versions of
our customer-premises-based gateway - medium systems. Through these access
points, we believe that we can provide our customers with quick and easy
access to the advantages of voice-over-digital data network technology,
building on our strengths, specifically, the ability to provide
voice-over-digital data network telephony that operates similarly to the
traditional telephone network. We believe that this initiative will position
us to take advantage of partnerships with Internet service providers,
Internet portals, and data network carriers to leverage off their larger
customer distribution capabilities. As we continue to implement this refined
program, we have indefinitely delayed our Telecom 2000 carrier class gateway
- - large systems project, and we expect to shift our focus in Telecom 2000
customer premises-based gateways - medium systems to market niches consistent
with our refined strategy.
Research & development expenses for the six months ended September 30,
1999 were approximately $894,400, an decrease of 30% over the approximately
$1,273,700 recorded for the corresponding period of 1998. The decrease in the
research and development expenditures for the 1999 period reflected lower
overall workforce costs and reduced third party supplier costs for new
integrated printed circuit boards and the related software.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)
Other income (expense) for the six months ended September 30, 1999,
was approximately $(800), a decrease over the approximately $115,200 recorded
for the corresponding period of 1998. The decrease in other income (expense) in
1999 is due primarily to the interest income decrease over 1998 due to the use
of investments to fund working capital requirements.
-11-
OTHER
IMPACT OF INFLATION
The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material adverse
effect on sales or income during the past several years. Increases in supplies
or other operating costs may adversely affect the Company's operations; however,
the Company believes it may increase prices of its products and systems to
offset increases in costs of goods sold or other operating costs.
SEASONALITY
Based our experience to date, the we believe that our future operating
results may be subject to quarterly variations based on a variety of factors,
but seasonal changes in the weather should have little or no effect.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
In the six months September 30, 1999, we used approximately
$(3,529,800) in cash flows from operating activities, excluding changes in
assets and liabilities, during the six months ended September 30, 1999, compared
to approximately $(3,707,000) for the corresponding period of 1998. The total
net cash used by operating activities was approximately $(3,369,600) for the six
months ended September 30, 1999, compared to approximately $(4,291,600) for the
corresponding period of 1998.
Cash provided by investing activities totalled approximately $3,137,400
for the six months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to approximately
$(3,287,100) used in investing activities for the corresponding period of 1998.
The main component of that investing activity was the sale of short-term
securities of approximately $3,365,900, as well as continued expenditures for
equipment of approximately $225,100. The majority of the expenditures related to
the refinement of our operating model described above.
Cash provided by financing activities totalled approximately $602,300
compared to approximately $14,315,600 for the corresponding period in 1998. We
successfully completed a private placement in April 1998 that yielded net
proceeds of approximately $5,100,000, and exercises of our common stock warrants
prior to their redemption in September 1998 yielded net proceeds of
approximately $9,000,000. We have access to a $1,000,000 credit line secured by
investments, fixed assets and receivables, but did not borrow against that line
of credit during the six months ended September 30, 1999.
We expect to continue to make significant investments in the future
to support our overall growth. We presently have cash and cash equivalents,
investments and a line of credit that we believe will be sufficient to meet
near-term cash requirements. However, we expect that our operational cash
requirements will stay the same or increase as a result of our restructuring
efforts and funding of our subsidiary ZeroPlus.com, Inc. We expect that
additional equity financing arrangements will be required within the next
six months. We currently are exploring financing alternatives, but we cannot
assure that such financing will be obtained in a time period or manner that
will not impact our current operational plans.
FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS
The preceding paragraphs and the following discussion include
forward-looking statements regarding our future financial position and results
of operations. Actual financial position and results of operations may differ
materially from these statements. All such statements are qualified by the
cautionary statements set forth in Part I, Item 1 of our most recent Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB, as amended, under "Forward Looking and Cautionary
Statements," as well as the following statements.
We have invested significant amounts in the research and development
and the initial product rollout marketing and selling for the Telecom 2000
product line. Even after our restructuring is completed, the emphasis,
attention, and dedication of our limited resources to the Telecom 2000 product
line will, in our view, continue to cause losses. However, we believe that the
value and sales potential of our refocused Telecom 2000 product line outweighs
the risk of continued operating losses.
We believe that our revenues will grow as we continue to implement
our revised operating model and deliver new Telecom 2000 products that make
voice and telephony functions easily available at common entry points to
digital data networks, which we will target under
-12-
our refined strategy. However, our refined strategy is new and still under
development. While we believe it offers us the possibility of increased revenue
growth sooner than did our previous equipment-based strategy, we can make no
assurance of this result.
We do not expect revenue growth to occur ratably in the near term.
Revenue growth, if any, in fiscal 2000 will depend to a large extent on the
timing and success of the finalization and rollout of our refined strategy.
Because of these and other uncertainties affecting our future operating
results, past performance should not be considered to be a reliable indicator of
future performance. The use of historical trends to anticipate results or trends
in future periods may be inappropriate. In addition, our participation in a
highly dynamic industry may result in significant volatility in the price of our
common stock.
