Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended February 29, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended November 30, 2000. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 1999. For the three-month periods ending February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999, there were no significant non-owner sources of income or expense. Accordingly, a separate statement of comprehensive income has not been presented herein. Note 2-Financing Arrangements - ----------------------------- On March 3, 1999, our subsidiary, Essex Communications, Inc. ("Essex"), entered into a Receivable Sale Agreement with Receivables Funding Corp. ("RFC") that provides for Essex to sell up to $500,000 of its eligible receivables to RFC on a periodic basis and to grant RFC a security interest in the receivables purchased by RFC. In December 1999, Essex increased the amount of eligible receivables it can sell to RFC to $1,000,000. The Receivables Sales Agreement does not transfer the risk of loss to RFC, and has been treated by us as a financing for financial statement purposes. As of February 29, 2000, Essex was indebted to RFC for the principal amount of approximately $452,000. Essex borrows from RFC at approximately five percentage points above the prime rate, which was 8.75% per annum at February 29, 2000. The Company's subsidiary, Telecarrier Services Inc. ("Telecarrier"), has a $150,000 line of credit with a bank. Amounts drawn on the line of credit bear interest at the rate of 9.75% per annum. The line is payable on demand subject to sixty (60) days written notice. At February 29, 2000, the entire line was utilized. The Company's Canadian subsidiary, Sirco International (Canada) Ltd., has a real property mortgage with its bank, National Bank of Canada. The mortgage is payable in monthly installments of approximately $3,300, including interest at 10.25% per annum, with a balloon payment of approximately $300,000 due in June 2000. At February 29, 2000, the mortgage was approximately $307,000. 5 Note 3-Investment in Subsidiary - ------------------------------- On January 20, 2000, the Company acquired all the outstanding common stock of Telecarrier in exchange for 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock and a cash payment of $44,200 in a transaction valued at approximately $1,669,000. Additionally, the Company issued 32,000 shares of the Company's common stock to retire certain indebtedness of Telecarrier. The purchase agreement provides for additional shares of the Company's common stock to be issued if certain performance objectives are achieved. Telecarrier is a full service telecommunications provider for small and mid-sized companies. The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase. Note 4-Discontinued Operations - ------------------------------ In August 1999, the Company sold certain assets and assigned certain licenses of its former domestic luggage division to Interbrand L.L.C., a non-related accessory company, and subsequently discontinued operations of its wholesale luggage segment. The operating results of the former wholesale luggage segment have been accounted for as a discontinued operation and the results of operations have been excluded from continuing operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented, including the prior period financial statements in which the Company has restated the operating results of its former wholesale luggage segment as a discontinued operation. Interest expense relating to borrowings by the former wholesale luggage segment is included as operating expenses of such discontinued segment. Operating results of the discontinued operation for the three-month periods ending February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999 are as follows: Three Months Ended February 29, 2000 February 28, 1999 ----------------- ----------------- Net sales $ -- $1,772,000 Cost of sales -- 1,542,000 Operating expenses -- 1,082,000 Other income -- (31,000) ------- ---------- Loss from discontinued operations $ -- ($ 821,000) ------- ---------- 6 Item 2.

Three Months Ended February 29, 2000 vs. February 28, 1999 - ---------------------------------------------------------- Continuing operations Net revenues for the three months ended February 29, 2000 increased by approximately $1,511,000, or approximately 211%, to approximately $2,226,000 as compared to approximately $715,000 reported for the three months ended February 28, 1999. 7 Net revenues of the Company's telecommunications division increased by approximately $1,388,000, or approximately 382%, to approximately $1,751,000 for the three-month period ending February 29, 2000 from approximately $363,000 reported in the three-month period ending February 28, 1999. The increase was attributable to the rapid growth in the number of installed access lines provisioned by the Company. The Company is certified to resell local telephone services and value-added products in the states of Connecticut, Florida, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Virginia, and is seeking certification in an additional 23 states. The Company also provides dial-up, dedicated and high-speed Digital Subscriber Line ("DSL") Internet access, Web design, hosting and E-commerce development to small and medium-sized businesses. Net revenues of the Company's specialty retail sales division, consisting of the operations of Airline Ventures, Inc. ("AVI"), increased for the three-month period ending February 29, 2000 by approximately $123,000, or approximately 35%, to approximately $475,000 from approximately $352,000 reported in the three-month period ending February 28, 1999. AVI operates three retail stores in Texas for professional airline flight crew members and sells pilot uniforms, study guides and travel products. Its products are sold on the E-commerce site, www.avishop.com, and on a Web site, www.tagintl.com. The Company's gross profit for the three-month period ending February 29, 2000 increased by approximately $553,000 to approximately $742,000 from approximately $189,000 reported in the three-month period ending February 28, 1999, and the gross profit percentage increased to 33.3% from 26.4% reported in the prior fiscal period. The increase in gross profit percentage is primarily attributable to Company's ability to utilize the unbundled network elements platform ("UNE-P") for customers in New York and Massachusetts. Approximately 70% of the customers were on the UNE-P service offering as of February 29, 2000, as compared to no customers at February 28, 1999. The Federal Communications Commission has mandated this service offering in all 50 states. The Company anticipates that the nationwide usage of UNE-P will enable it to expand into new geographical territories and maintain gross margins of over 30%. Management expects the gross margin of its specialty retail segment to continue at its current level of over 40%. Selling, and general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $892,000, or approximately 240%, to approximately $1,264,000 for the three-month period ending February 29, 2000 from approximately $372,000 reported in prior fiscal period. A major portion of this increase was attributable to the labor and facility expenses incurred by the Company's telecommunications division. This increase in expense is directly related to the significant increase in telecommunications revenues in the three-month period ending February 29, 2000 as compared to the prior fiscal period in 1999. At February 29, 2000, the Company owned approximately 27% of the capital stock of RiderPoint, Inc. ("RiderPoint"). RiderPoint specializes in the development of comparative rating insurance software and sells motorcycle insurance through a wholly-owned subsidiary. As the Company's investment in RiderPoint is accounted for under the equity of accounting, the Company is required to include its portion of RiderPoint's net loss in the Company's results of operations. For the three-month period ending February 29, 2000, the Company has recorded a loss of approximately $77,000 relating to its investment in RiderPoint. The Company had no investment in RiderPoint in the prior fiscal period. At February 28, 1999, the Company was the largest shareholder of Access One Communications Inc. 8 ("Access One"), owning approximately 30.6% of Access One's capital stock. As the Company's investment in Access One was accounted for under the equity method of accounting, the Company was required to include its portion of Access One's net loss in the Company's results of operations. For the three-month period ending February 28, 1999, the Company recorded a loss of approximately $425,000 relating to its investment in Access One. The Company recorded losses in fiscal 1999 equal to its investment in Access One. As a result, the Company's investment in Access One has been reduced to zero. Interest expense for the three-month period ending February 29, 2000 increased by approximately $18,000 from the amount reported in the three-month period ending February 28, 1999 primarily due to increased average borrowings. Miscellaneous income for the three-month period ending February 29, 2000 of $67,000 resulted primarily from the sale of Access One shares. Discontinued operations In August 1999, the Company sold certain assets and assigned certain licenses of its former domestic luggage division to Interbrand L.L.C., a non-related accessory company, and subsequently discontinued operations of its wholesale luggage segment. The operating results of the former wholesale luggage segment have been accounted for as a discontinued operation and the results of operations have been excluded from continuing operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented, including the prior period financial statements in which the Company has restated the operating results of its former wholesale luggage segment as a discontinued operation. Interest expense relating to borrowings by the former wholesale luggage segment is included as operating expenses of such discontinued segment. The Company reported no results from discontinued operations for the three-month period ending February 29, 2000 as compared to a loss of approximately $821,000 for the three-month period ending February 28, 1999. Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- At February 29, 2000, the Company had cash and cash equivalents available of approximately $2,424,000, and working capital of approximately $2,076,000 as compared to cash and cash equivalents available of approximately of $318,000, and working capital of approximately $321,000 in the prior fiscal period. Net cash used in operating activities (including discontinued operations in the first fiscal period of 1999) aggregated approximately $760,000 and $202,000 in fiscal quarters ended February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999, respectively. The increase in net cash used in operating activities of approximately $558,000 is primarily the result of an increase of approximately $998,000 in accounts receivable, due to the significant increase in revenues recorded by the Company's telecommunications division, as compared to the comparable quarterly period in 1999, for which accounts receivable was a source of cash of approximately $519,000. This impact of this change in accounts receivable was partially offset by the decrease in the net loss in the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2000 as compared to the prior year period. On March 3, 1999, the Company's subsidiary, Essex Communications, Inc. ("Essex"), entered into a Receivable Sale Agreement with Receivables Funding Corp. ("RFC") that provides 9 for Essex to sell up to $500,000 of its eligible receivables to RFC on a periodic basis and to grant RFC a security interest in the receivables purchased by RFC. In December 1999, Essex increased the amount of eligible receivables it can sell to RFC to $1,000,000. The Receivables Sales Agreement does not transfer the risk of loss to RFC, and has been treated by the Company as a financing for financial statement purposes. As of February 29, 2000, Essex was indebted to RFC for the principal amount of approximately $452,000. Essex borrows from RFC at approximately five percentage points above the prime rate, which was 8.75% per annum at February 29, 2000. Net cash used in investing activities aggregated approximately $157,000 and $33,000 in fiscal quarters ended February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999, respectively. Cash from investing activities was used in the first fiscal quarter of 2000 for the purchase of fixed assets and the acquisition of Telecarrier. The source of cash provided from investing activities in the first fiscal quarter 2000 was the proceeds from the 1992 sale of a subsidiary. Cash from investing activities was used in the first fiscal quarter of 1999 for the purchase of fixed assets. Net cash provided by financing activities aggregated approximately $2,711,000 and $200,000 in fiscal quarters ended February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999, respectively. In the first quarter of fiscal 2000, net cash provided by financing activities resulted primarily from the proceeds of borrowings from financial institutions of approximately $188,000; the proceeds from the exercise of warrants of approximately $929,000; the proceeds from a private placement of common stock of approximately $1,380,000; and the proceeds of the exercise of stock options of approximately $214,000. In the first quarter of fiscal 1999, net cash provided by financing activities resulted from the proceeds of the issuance of preferred stock of approximately $196,000 and the proceeds from the exercise of stock options of approximately $4,000. The Company's subsidiary, Telecarrier, has a $150,000 line of credit with a bank. Amounts drawn on the line of credit bear interest at the rate of 9.75% per annum. The line is payable on demand subject to sixty (60) days written notice. At February 29, 2000, the entire line was utilized. The Company's Canadian subsidiary, Sirco International (Canada) Ltd., has a real property mortgage with its bank, National Bank of Canada. The mortgage is payable in monthly installments of approximately $3,300, including interest at 10.25% per annum, with a balloon payment of approximately $300,000 in June 2000. At February 29, 2000, the mortgage was approximately $307,000. For the quarter ended February 29, 2000, the Company incurred approximately $164,000 in capital expenditures. The Company plans to make an additional $300,000 in capital expenditures in fiscal 2000 in conjunction with the establishment of a network operations center in Norwalk, Connecticut and with the planned expansion to become a nationwide Competitive Local Exchange Carrier ("CLEC"). The Company anticipates financing these expenditures through equipment leases and by using its existing working capital. As of February 29, 2000, the Company owned approximately 18% of Access One. On March 24, 2000, Talk.com Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Talk"), Aladdin Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Talk ("Merger Sub"), and Access One, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), which provides, among other things, for the merger 10 (the "Merger") of Merger Sub with and into Access One. Upon consummation of the Merger, Access One will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Talk. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Access One stockholders will receive 0.571428 shares of Talk's common stock in exchange for each share of Access One common stock held by such stockholders at the effective time of the Merger. It is expected that, as a result of the Merger, shareholders of Access One will receive an aggregate of approximately 14.3 million shares of Talk's common stock, of which the Company will receive approximately 2.5 million shares. The transaction has been approved by the Boards of Directors of each of Talk and Access One, but is contingent upon, among other things, approvals of both Talk's and Access One's stockholders, certain regulatory approvals (including approval under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and certain telecommunications regulatory approvals), and other customary conditions. Under a Voting Agreement entered into on March 24, 2000, the holders of approximately 67.8% of Access One's outstanding common stock have agreed to vote in favor of the Merger. In connection with the Merger, Access One has also entered into a five-year agreement to provide certain telecommunications services to Talk and its subsidiaries. Access One has the right to terminate that agreement if the merger with Talk.com is not consummated. Access One shareholders anticipate receiving Talk common stock that has been registered for resale, subject to an agreement to not sell the stock until three months after the registration statement is declared effective, or until October 31, 2000, whichever occurs sooner. Management believes that the specialty retail sales division's working capital and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet the cash and capital requirements for the Company's specialty retail sales division for the next twelve months. This division operated profitably in the first quarter and anticipates being able to continue its current rate of growth for the next several quarters. Management anticipates that the Company has sufficient capital on hand to meet the operating needs of its telecommunications division over the next 12 months. In addition to the cash on hand and the shares of Talk that the Company may receive in conjunction with the Merger between Talk and Access One, the Company has sent redemption notices requiring the exercise of warrants to purchase approximately 622,000 shares of eLEC common stock from the Company at a price of $4.00 per share. 11 eLEC COMMUNICATIONS CORP. ------------------------- PART II-OTHER INFORMATION ------------------------- Item 2.
