AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 1 - INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The accompanying interim condensed financial statements as of September 30, 1998 and for the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The financial statements are condensed and, therefore, do not include all disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 1999 Subsequent to the Company filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 1998 with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the Company has restated certain amounts previously reported as of September 30, 1998 and June 30, 1998 and for the three months ended September 30, 1998. The Company reevaluated the appraisal of the in process research and development ("IPR&D") associated with the acquisition of Digital Courier International, Inc. ("DCII"). The portion of the purchase price allocated to IPR&D was reduced from $5,600,000 to $3,700,000 (see Note 2). Additionally, changes have been made in the method used for valuing the shares of common stock issued in connection with the acquisitions of Sisna, Books Now, WeatherLabs and DCII (see Note 2). Previously the Company had applied discounts to the quoted market prices on the dates of the acquisitions due to the shares being restricted and the Company's stock thinly traded. The restated amounts in the accompanying financial statements reflect the shares of common stock valued at the quoted market price on the dates of the acquisitions, which increased the Sisna purchase price by $558,240, increased the Books Now purchase price by $78,125, increased the WeatherLabs purchase price by $53,375 and increased the DCII purchse price by $981,914. In addition, the Company had previously expensed $1,376,307 of advertising related to the @Home Agreement (see Note 4) as paid because the amount paid was nonrefundable and the Company had no experience on which to evaluate the effectiveness of the advertising. The restated amount of prepaid advertising will be expensed as the advertising services are received. As a result of the restatement, loss from continuing operations and net loss for the three months ended September 30, 1998 decreased from $(8,342,280) to $(5,120,580) or $(0.91) per diluted share to $(0.56) per diluted share. 8 NOTE 2 - ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS Books Now, Inc. In January 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Books Now, Inc. ("Books Now"), a seller of books through advertisements in magazines and over the Internet. The shareholders of Books Now received 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $312,500 and an earn-out of up to 262,500 additional common shares. The issuance of the common shares was recorded at their fair market value determined to be the quoted closing price on the date of acquisition. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and the results of operations of Books Now are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. The tangible assets acquired included $261 of cash, $21,882 of inventory and $50,000 of equipment. Liabilities assumed included $112,335 of notes payable, $24,404 of capital lease obligations and $239,668 of accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the acquired assets of $616,764 was recorded as goodwill and is being amortized over a period of five years. In November 1998, the Company and the former owner reached a severance agreement, wherein, the former owner and President of Books Now is to receive severance payments equal to one year's salary ($81,000). Additionally, the Company agreed to issue 205,182 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $1,051,558, based on the quoted market price of the shares on the date of the severance agreement, to the former shareholders of Books Now. Because the operations of Books Now were not achieving the performance criteria, both the $81,000 of cash and the $1,051,558 of common stock will be expensed in the three months ending December 31, 1998. WeatherLabs, Inc. On March 17, 1998, the Company entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement to acquire all of the outstanding stock of WeatherLabs, Inc. ("WeatherLabs"), one of the leading providers of weather and weather-related information on the Internet. The acquisition was closed in May 1998. At closing, the shareholders of WeatherLabs were issued 253,260 shares of the Company's common valued at $762,503. The issuance of the common shares was recorded at the quoted market price on the date of acquisition. These shareholders are entitled to receive a total of 523,940 additional shares over the next three years subject to changes in the stock price of the Company's common stock, as defined, at the end of each of the Company's next three fiscal years. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and the results of operations of WeatherLabs are included in the accompanying condensed 9 consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. The tangible assets acquired included $3,716 of cash, $19,694 of accounts receivable, $115,745 of equipment and $13,300 of deposits. Liabilities assumed included $100,000 of notes payable, $56,902 of capital lease obligations and $134,444 of accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the acquired assets of $901,394 was recorded as goodwill and is being amortized over a period of five years. Digital Courier International, Inc. Effective March 17, 1998, the Company entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with DCII., a Nevada corporation. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company agreed to issue 4,659,080 shares of its common stock valued at $14,027,338 to the shareholders of DCII. The issuance of the common shares was recorded at the quoted market price on the date of acquisition. The acquisition and the changing of the Company's name to Digital Courier Technologies, Inc. ("DCTI") were approved by the shareholders of the Company on September 16, 1998. The acquisition of DCII has been accounted for as a purchase and the results of operations of DCII are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. The tangible assets and contra-equity acquired included $250,000 of equipment, $20,500 of deposits and $12,000 of stock subscriptions receivable. Liabilities assumed consisted of $219,495 of accounts payable and accrued liabilities. After entering into the Exchange Agreement, the Company made advances to DCII to fund its operations. The amount loaned to DCII totaled $1,659,418 as of the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the acquired assets was $15,623,750. Of this amount, $11,923,750 was recorded as goodwill and other intangibles and is being amortized over a period of five years and $3,700,000 was expensed during the three months ended September 30, 1998 as acquired in-process research and development. Upon consummation of the DCII acquisition, the Company immediately expensed $3,700,000 representing purchased in-process technology that had not yet reached technological feasibility and has no alternative future use. The in-process projects were focused on the continued development and evolution of internet e-commerce solutions including: netClearing and two virtual store projects (videos and books). The nature of these projects is to provide full service credit card clearing and merchant banking services over the Internet for businesses and financial institutions and to market software to help customers develop virtual stores on the Internet. When completed, the projects will enable the creation of any "virtual store" through a simplified interface. As of the date of acquisition, DCII had invested $1,300,000 in the in-process projects identified above. The developmental projects at the time of the acquisition were not technologically feasible and had no alternative future use. This conclusion was attributable to the fact that DCII had not completed a working model that had been tested and proven to work at performance levels 10 which were expected to be commercially viable, and that the technologies constituting the projects had no alternative use other than their intended use. Development of the acquired in-process technology into commercially viable products and services required efforts principally related to the completion of all planning, designing, coding, prototyping, scalability verification, and testing activities necessary to establish that the proposed technologies would meet their design specifications, including functional, technical, and economic performance requirements. Management estimates that approximately $4,000,000 will be required over the next 12 to 18 months to develop the aforementioned products to commercial viability. Management estimates that the projects were approximately 50% complete at the date of the acquisition given the nature of the achievements to date. These estimates are subject to change, given the uncertainties of the development process, and no assurance can be given that deviations from these estimates will not occur. The net cash flows resulting from the projects underway at DCII, which were used to value the purchased research and development, are based on management's estimates of revenues, cost of revenues, research and development costs, selling, general, and administrative costs, and income taxes from such projects. These estimates assume that the revenue projections are based on the potential market size that the projects are addressing, the Company's ability to gain market share in these segments, and the life cycle of in-process technology. Estimated total revenues from the purchased in-process projects peak in the fiscal years 2001 and 2002 and then decline rapidly in the fiscal years 2003 and 2004 as other new products are expected to enter the market. There can be no assurances that these assumptions will prove accurate, or that the Company will realize the anticipated benefit of the acquisition. The net cash flows generated from the in-process technology are expected to reflect earnings before interest and taxes, of approximately 35% to 48% for the sales generated from in-process technology. The discount of the net cash flows to their present value is based on the weighted average cost of capital ("WACC"). The WACC calculation produces the average required rate of return of an investment in an operating enterprise, based on various required rates of return from investments in various areas of the enterprise. The discount rates used to discount the net cash flows from the purchased in-process technology were 45% for DCII. This discount rate reflects the uncertainty surrounding the successful development of the purchased in-process technology, the useful life of such technology, the profitability levels of such technology, if any, and the uncertainty of technological advances, all of which are unknown at this time. As evidenced by their continued support for these projects, management believes the Company is well positioned to successfully complete the research and development projects. However, there is risk associated with the completion 11 of the projects, and there is no steadfast assurance that each will meet with either technological or commercial success. The substantial delay or outright failure of these eCommerce solutions would negatively impact the Company's financial condition. If these projects are not successfully developed, the Company's business, operating results, and financial condition may be negatively affected in future periods. In addition, the value of other intangible assets acquired may become impaired. To date, DCII results have not differed significantly from the forecast assumptions. The Company's research and development expenditures since the DCII acquisition have not differed materially from expectations. Revenue contribution from the acquired technology falls within an acceptable range of plans in its role in the Company's suite of internet and e-commerce solutions. Unaudited Pro Forma Data for Acquisitions of Continuing Operations The unaudited pro forma results of operations of the Company for the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 (assuming the acquisitions of Books Now, WeatherLabs and DCII had occurred as of July 1, 1997 and excluding the write off of acquired in-process research and dvelopment of $3,700,000 in connection with the DCII acquisition) are as follows: Three Month Ended September 30, ----------------------------- 1998 1997 ----------------------------- Net sales $ 319,352 $ 102,977 Loss from continuing operations (2,298,495) (2,181,145) Loss per share from continuing operations (0.18) (0.16) Sisna, Inc. On January 8, 1997, the Company completed the acquisition of Sisna, Inc. ("Sisna") pursuant to an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Agreement"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company issued 325,000 shares of its common stock valued at $2,232,961 in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Sisna. The issuance of the common shares was recorded at the quoted market price on the date of acquisition. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the acquired assets less liabilities assumed was $2,232,961, which was allocated to acquired in-process research and development and expensed at the date of the acquisition. Sisna has not been profitable since its inception. The tangible assets acquired consisted of $32,212 of trade accounts receivable, $124,151 of inventory and $500,000 of 12 computer and office equipment. The liabilities assumed consisted of $10,550 of bank overdrafts, $278,227 of accounts payable, $233,142 of notes payable and $134,444 of other accrued liabilities. In connection with the acquisition, the Company entered into three-year employment agreements with four of Sisna's key employees and shareholders. The four employment agreements provided for aggregate base annual compensation of $280,000. The employment agreements also provided for aggregate bonuses of $500,000, which were paid as of the date of the acquisition. These bonuses were earned and expensed as the employees completed certain computer installations. The employment agreements also included noncompetition provisions for periods extending three years after the termination of employment with the Company. In March 1998, the Company sold the operations of Sisna to Mr. Smith, Sisna's former owner (and a director of the Company at the time of the sale) and certain other buyers in exchange for 35,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a value of $141,904. Mr. Smith and the other buyers received tangible assets of $55,547 of accounts receivable, $35,083 of prepaid expenses, $47,533 of computer and office equipment, and $9,697 of other assets and assumed liabilities of $33,342 of accounts payable, $101,951 of notes payable, and $243,320 of other accrued liabilities. The sale resulted in a pretax gain on the sale of $372,657. The sales price to Mr. Smith was determined by arms' length negotiations between Mr. Smith and the independent Directors and was approved by the Board of Directors with Mr. Smith abstaining. The operations of Sisna have been reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the period July 1, 1997 through September 30, 1997 as discontinued operations. The Sisna revenues were $261,351 and the loss from operations was $121,431 during the three months ended September 30, 1997. Sale of Direct Mail Advertising Operations In March 1998, the Company sold its direct mail advertising operations to Focus Direct, an unrelated Texas corporation. Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, Focus Direct purchased all assets, properties, rights, claims and goodwill, of every kind, character and description, tangible and intangible, real and personal wherever located of the Company used in the Company's direct mail operations. Focus Direct also agreed to assume certain liabilities of the Company related to the direct mail advertising operations. Pursuant to the agreement, Focus Direct agreed to pay the Company $7,700,000 for the above described net assets. Focus Direct paid the Company $6,900,000 at closing and will pay the additional $700,000 by June 30, 1999. The total purchase price was adjusted for the difference between the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at November 30, 1997 and those as of the date of closing. This sale resulted in a pretax gain of $7,031,548. The purchaser acquired tangible assets consisting of approximately $495,000 of accounts receivable, $180,000 of inventory, $575,000 of furniture and equipment, and $10,000 of other assets, and assumed liabilities of approximately $590,000 of accounts payable and $320,000 of other accrued liabilities. 13 The direct mail advertising operations have been reflected as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three month period ended September 30, 1997. The direct mail advertising revenues were $2,546,836 and the pretax income from operations was $110,558 during the three months ended September 30, 1997. Sale of Certain Assets Related to WorldNow On July 15, 1998, the Company signed an agreement to sell a portion of its assets related to the Company's Internet-related business branded under the "WorldNow" and "WorldNow Online Network" marks to Gannaway Web Holdings, LLC ("Gannaway"). The assets primarily related to the national Internet-based network of local television stations. Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, Gannaway agreed to pay $487,172 (less certain amounts as defined) in installments over a one-year period from the date of closing and agreed to pay earn-out amounts of up to $500,000. The earn-out amounts are calculated as ten percent of monthly revenues actually received by Gannaway in excess of $100,000 and are to be paid quarterly. Gannaway acquired tangible assets of approximately $100,000 consisting primarily of computer and office equipment and assumed no liabilities. The operations of WorldNow through the date of the sale of the assets are reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in loss from continuing operations. The Company realized a pretax gain of $308,245 on the sale. NOTE 3 - NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Basic net loss per common share ("Basic EPS") excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share ("Diluted EPS") reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an antidilutive effect on net loss per common share. Options to purchase 1,348,000 and 1,322,380 shares of common stock at weighted average exercise prices of $3.82 and $5.36 per share as of September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and warrants to purchase 656,942 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $9.37 per share as of September 30, 1998 were not included in the computation of Diluted EPS. The inclusion of the options and warrants would have been antidilutive, thereby decreasing net loss per common share. As of September 30, 1998, the Company has agreed to issue up to an additional 786,440 shares of common stock in connection 14 with the acquisitions of Books Now and WeatherLabs (see Note 2), contingent on the achievement of certain performance criteria and/or the future stock price of the Company's common stock. These contingent shares have also been excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.

The Performance Warrants vest over the term of the agreement as certain promotion criteria are achieved by @Home. The costs related to the agreement are advertising costs and will be expensed as the advertising services are received. As of September 30, 1998, the initial cash payment to @Home of $266,000, the fair market value of the 20,534 shares of common stock of $223,307 and the estimated fair market value of the Warrant Shares of $887,000 have been recorded as prepaid advertising expense and will be expensed as advertising services are provided. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview Digital Courier Technologies, Inc. (formerly DataMark Holding, Inc. and referred to herein as "DCTI" or the "Company") is developing and marketing proprietary electronic commerce software and technologies and online information 15 services for a variety of computer platforms and hand-held computing devices connected to the Internet. The core technology is organized into three product groups which include: a suite of electronic commerce tools for building Internet storefronts designed for retailing a wide variety of consumer and business products; a distributed content publishing software suite that allows businesses to creatively deliver information services across the Internet as well as wireless networks; and a transaction software suite that incorporates a complete Internet payment processing system to streamline credit card transactions over the Internet. The Company utilizes its software suites to host and deliver information services and e-commerce tools to major businesses, Internet portals, and financial institutions on the Internet. The Company also licenses the software. The Company's sophisticated software and technology is currently used by major portals such as Excite, Netscape and America Online, as well as by the Company's own prominent group of Web-sites including www.weatherlabs.com and www.videosnow.com. The Company began operations in 1987 to provide highly targeted business to consumer advertising through direct mail. Since the Company's founding, the direct mail marketing business had provided substantially all of the Company's revenues. The direct mail marketing business was sold in March 1998 and its results of operations for the applicable periods in fiscal 1998 are classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. In fiscal 1994, the Company began developing its own proprietary websites. Since fiscal 1994, the Company has devoted significant resources towards the development and launch of these websites. The Company's four operating divisions include netClearing(TM), WeatherLabs(TM), Videos Now(TM), and Books Now(TM). The netClearing division utilizes both the e-commerce tools and the transaction software suite to provide a complete electronic commerce package for conducting business and facilitating credit card payment processing over the Internet. The WeatherLabs division supplies proprietary real-time weather information to online businesses throughout the world, and hosts its own web site for consumers and business customers. Videos Now and Books Now utilize the Company's software suites to operate e-commerce web sites that sell media products such as videos, movies, LaserDiscs, DVDs, and books to consumers and online businesses. The Company sold its WorldNow Online Network television affiliate website and certain related assets in July 1998. The Company's content and commerce software is designed to be co-branded or private labeled by its customers. This approach enables the Company's customers and partners to brand their own sites and products and build additional value into their online presence with the use of the Company's technology. The Company believes that significant revenue opportunities exist for all of its divisions in the rapidly expanding e-commerce sector of the Internet industry. In January 1997, the Company acquired Sisna, Inc. ("Sisna"), an Internet service provider headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, for an 16 acquisition price of $2,232,961. In December, 1997, the Board of Directors reviewed the performance of Sisna in conjunction with a review of the strategic opportunities available to the Company. Among the conclusions of the Board were the following: (a) The Internet Service Provider business had become very competitive during the previous six months, with major corporations such as US West, America Online, MCI and others aggressively marketing their internet access offerings; (b) The margins in the ISP business were declining, as fixed-price, unlimited time access had become prevalent, and (c) Sisna's losses on a monthly basis were increasing with no apparent near-term prospect of profitability. For these reasons, the Board concluded that it was in the best interests of the Company to sell Sisna. The Board solicited offers to buy Sisna over a period of three months, but due to Sisna's continuing losses of over $40,000 per month, no offers materialized. In February 1998, the Board considered terminating the operations of Sisna to cut the Company's losses, Mr. Henry Smith, a director of the Company and one of the former owners of Sisna, offered to assume the ongoing cost of running Sisna. After arms-length negotiations between the independent members of the Board and Mr. Smith, the Company agreed to sell the operations of Sisna to Mr. Smith. In March 1998, the Company sold the operations of Sisna to Mr. Smith and certain other buyers in exchange for 35,000 shares of the Company's common stock, valued at $141,904 based on the stock's quoted fair market value. Mr. Smith and the other buyers received tangible assets of $55,547 of accounts receivable, $35,083 of prepaid expenses, $47,533 of computer and office equipment, and $9,697 of other assets and assumed liabilities of $33,342 of accounts payable, $101,951 of notes payable, and $243,320 of other accrued liabilities, resulting in a pretax gain on the sale of $372,657. The sales price to Mr. Smith was determined by arms' length negotiations between Mr. Smith and the independent directors and was approved by the Board of Directors, with Mr. Smith abstaining. Sisna's results of operations are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the applicable periods in fiscal 1998 as discontinued operations In January 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Books Now, a book reseller, in exchange for a maximum of 362,500 shares of the Company's common stock. One hundred thousand common shares valued at $312,500 were issued at closing and 262,500 common shares are subject to a three-year earn-out contingency based upon achieving certain financial performance objectives. The fair market value of the common shares issued was determined to be the quoted market price on the date of acquisition. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. Books Now's results of operations are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations since the date of acquisition. In May 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of WeatherLabs, Inc., a provider of weather and weather-related information and products on the Internet, in exchange for up to 777,220 shares of the Company's 17 common stock. At closing 253,260 common shares were issued valued at $762,503, and an additional 523,960 common shares may be issued upon the attainment by WeatherLabs of certain financial performance targets. The fair market value of the common shares issued was determined to be the quoted market price on the date of acquisition. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The results of operations of WeatherLabs are included in the accompanying financial statements from the date of acquisition. The Company entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement with Digital Courier International, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("DCII"), dated as of March 17, 1998 (the "Exchange Agreement"). The Exchange Agreement was approved by the shareholders of the Company in a special meeting held on September 16, 1998 during which the shareholders also approved a name change from DataMark Holding, Inc. to Digital Courier Technologies, Inc. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company issued 4,659,080 shares of its common stock valued at $14,027,338. The fair market value of the common shares issued was determined to be the quoted market price on the date of acquisition. This acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The results of operations of DCII are included in the accompanying financial statements from September 16, 1998, the date of acquisition. Results of Operations Three months ended September 30, 1998 compared with three months ended September 30, 1997 Net Sales Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1998 were $319,352 as compared to $17,545 for the three months ended September 30, 1997. Books Now's operations, which were acquired in January 1998, and WeatherLabs' operations, which were acquired in May 1998, accounted for $255,882 and $63,336 of the net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1998, respectively. WorldNow advertiser and subscriber sales accounted for the net sales $134 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 and all of the net sales during the three month period ended September 30, 1997. Cost of Sales Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 1998 were $179,881 or 56.3% of net sales. Cost of sales for the three months ended 18 September 30, 1997 were $5,459 or 31.1% of net sales. The increase in cost of sales as a percent of net sales is due to the change in products and services. Operating Expenses The write off of acquired in-process research and development during the three months ended September 30, 1998 was $3,700,000, which was attributable to the acquisition of DCII (see Note 2 to the financial statements). Depreciation and amortization expense increased 80.3% to $695,728 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 from $385,904 during the three months ended September 30, 1997. The increase in depreciation expense was due to (1) the equipment acquired in connection with the WeatherLabs and Books Now acquisitions, (2) the acquisition of new equipment to support the Company's online operations and (3) the amortization of goodwill related to the acquired companies. General and administrative expense increased 8.4% to $594,761 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 from $548,659 during the three months ended September 30, 1997. The increase in general and administrative expense was due to the addition of administrative and support staff and facilities costs associated with the DCII acquisition offset by the reduction of administrative and support staff associated with WorldNow Online. Selling expense decreased 17.2% to $531,576 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 from $642,006 during the three months ended September 30, 1997. The reduction is selling expense is attributable to the decreased emphasis on the WorldNow Online television activities, offset by selling expenses related to Books Now, WeatherLabs, and Videos Now. Research and development expense decreased 91.8% to $38,670 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 from $473,350 during the three months ended September 30, 1997. Research and development expense decreased because of the decreased emphasis on the WorldNow Online television activities. Discontinued Operations During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, the Company sold its direct mail advertising and Internet service operations. Therefore, their results of operations are presented as discontinued operations. During the three months ended September 30, 1997, pretax income from the direct mail advertising operations was $110,558. During the three months ended September 30, 1997, the Internet service operations incurred a pretax loss of $121,431. 19 Liquidity and Capital Resources In order to fund the costs of developing and launching WorldNow Online, in March 1996, the Company began a private placement to major institutions and other accredited investors (the "March 96 Placement"). The Company completed the March 96 Placement for net proceeds of $16,408,605 during fiscal year 1997, including the exercise of warrants. In October 1997, the Company entered into a sale and three-year capital leaseback agreement related to $3,000,000 of the Company's computer equipment. The agreement provided that $250,000 of the proceeds be placed in escrow upon signing the agreement. The Company sold its equipment at book value resulting in no deferred gain or loss on the transaction. In March 1998, the Company sold the net assets of DataMark Systems, Inc., its direct mail marketing subsidiary. To date, the Company has received $6,857,300 from the sale of these net assets and is scheduled to receive an additional $700,000 in June 1999. In April 1998, the Company purchased 1,800,000 shares of its common stock held by a former officer of the Company for $1,500,000 in cash. Effective June 1, 1998, we entered into a marketing agreement with America Online ("AOL"), which gave us "permanent anchor tenancy" and advertising for our Videos Now website on key channels of the America Online Network, AOL.com and Digital City. Due to low sales volume and unacceptable gross margins from the sale of videos on our Videos Now website on AOL, we entered into discussions with AOL beginning in November, 1998 to restructure the terms of the marketing agreement with AOL. Effective January 1, 1999, we amended the Marketing Agreement to: (1) reduce the previously required January 1, 1999 payment of $4,000,000 to AOL to a payment of $315,000 on or prior to January 31, 1999, and (2) eliminate any additional cash payments to AOL in the future under the Marketing Agreement. On February 1, 1999, we entered into a second amendment with AOL, under which AOL will return to us (a) 636,942 warrants to purchase common stock and (b) 601,610 of the 955,414 shares of our common stock previously issued to AOL under the marketing agreement. All advertising will cease immediately, but we will continue to have a permanent location or "button" on AOL's Shopping channel until August 31, 1999. We have no further financial obligations to AOL. Under the original contract with AOL the Company was to be one of only two predominantly displayed online stores ("permanent anchor tenant") for the sale of videos on the AOL channels where subscribers would most likely go to purchase videos. In addition to the predominant display on the AOL channels, AOL 20 was providing advertising on its other channels to send customers to the permanent anchor tenant sites. The permanent anchor tenancy included "above the fold placement" (no scrolling required to see the Company's video site) and an oversized logo (larger than a banner or a button). Under the amended contract with AOL the Company will only receive "button" placement on the AOL shopping channel. "Button" placement is not predominant on the AOL channels, is smaller, need not be "above the fold" and is not the beneficiary of AOL advertising designed to send customers to the site. On July 10, 1998, the Company entered into a 36-month content license and distribution agreement with @Home, wherein the Company has agreed to pay @Home $800,000 in cash. The Company made a cash payment to @Home of $266,000 in July 1998, and is scheduled to make payments to @Home of $267,000 in July 1999 and $267,000 in July 2000. On October 22, 1998, the Company borrowed $1,200,000 from a group of individual lenders (the "Loan"). The annual interest rate on the Loan is 24% and the loan is secured by certain receivables of the Company. The maturity date of the Loan is October 22, 1999. It may be prepaid without penalty any time after February 22, 1999. In connection with the Loan, the Company paid a finders fee of $27,750 and issued two-year warrants to purchase 25,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $2.875 per share. Operating activities used $1,959,077 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 compared to $2,176,726 during the three months ended September 30, 1997. The net cash used for operating activities during the three months ended September 30, 1998 was principally attributable to the payments made to AOL of $1,200,000 and @Home of $266,000. Cash used in investing activities was $1,124,139 and $967,030 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 1998, the Company's investing activities included cash advances for operating activities to DCII of $849,203 and the acquisition of equipment for $330,010, offset by the receipt of $55,074 from the sale of certain WorldNow assets. During the three months ended September 30, 1997, the Company's investing activities included the acquisition of equipment for $469,344, an investment in CommTouch, Ltd of $750,000 and a decrease in the net long-term assets of discontinued operations of $252,314. Cash used in financing activities was $91,609 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to $0 during the three months ended September 30, 1997. The increase in cash used was attributable to the receipt of $151,250 from the exercise of stock options, offset by capital lease obligation repayments of $242,859. Management projects that there will not be sufficient cash flows from operating activities during the next 12 months to provide capital for the Company to sustain its operations. As of September 30, 1998, the Company had 21 $36,899 of cash. The Company is currently attempting to obtain additional debt or equity funding. If adequate funding is not available, the Company may be required to revise its plans and reduce future expenditures. The Company has incurred losses from continuing operations of $5,597,967, $7,158,851 and $3,586,413 and the Company's operating activities have used $6,377,970, $6,334,660 and $1,385,567 of cash during the years ended June 30, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. As of September 30, 1998, the Company has working capital of $261,932 and was scheduled to make substantial payments as described above to AOL and @Home. None of the Company's continuing operations are generating positive cash flows. Additional funding will be required before the Company's continuing operations will achieve and sustain profitability, if at all. On November 24, 1998, the Company raised $1.8 million by selling its common stock and warrants to purchase common stock to The Brown Simpson Strategic Growth Funds (the "Purchasers") pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement between the Company and the Purchasers (the "Purchase Agreement"). On December 2, 1998, the Company sold an additional $1.8 million of common stock to the Purchasers and amended the Purchase Agreement and related documents (the "Amended Agreements"). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and Amended Agreements, the Purchasers acquired 800,000 shares of the Company's common stock and five-year warrants to purchase 800,000 additional shares ("Tranche A"). The exercise price for 400,000 of the warrants is $5.53 per share and the exercise price of the remaining 400,000 warrants is $9.49 per share. The exercise price of the warrants is subject to adjustment on the six month anniversary of each respective closing to the lesser of the initial exercise price and the average price of the Company's common stock during any five consecutive business days during the 22 business days ending on such anniversary of the closing. The warrants are callable by the Company if for 15 consecutive trading days, the closing bid price of the Company's stock is at least two times the then-current exercise price. Because the shares acquired by the purchasers were priced at a 10% discount from the quoted market price no value has been allocated to the warrants. The Amended Agreements also require the Company to sell to the Purchasers, and the Purchasers to purchase from the Company, an additional tranche of 800,000 units, each unit consisting of one share of the Company's common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock (the "Tranche B Units"), if certain conditions are met. A condition to the sale of the Tranche B Units, among others, is that the closing bid price of the Company's common stock be more than $7 per share for fifteen consecutive trading days. The price for the Tranche B Units is $7 per Unit and the exercise price of the warrants contained in the Tranche B Unit will be equal to 110% of the closing bid price of the Company's stock on the day of the sale of the Tranche B Units. On March 3, 1999, the Company raised an additional $3.6 million through the sale of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") and warrants to purchase common stock to the Purchasers pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement between the Company and the Purchasers (the "March Purchase Agreement"). 22 Pursuant to the March Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers acquired 360 shares of the Preferred Stock convertible into 800,000 shares of common stock and five-year warrants to purchase an additional 800,000 shares of common stock. The Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a price of $4.50 per share of common stock. The initial exercise price for the warrants is $5.23 per share, subject to adjustment on the six month anniversary of the closing, to the lesser of the initial exercise price and the average price of the Company's common stock during any five consecutive business days during the twenty-two business days ending on such anniversary of the closing. The warrants are callable by the Company if for thirty consecutive trading days, the closing bid price of the Company's common stock is at least two times the then-current exercise price. The March Purchase Agreement also requires the Company to sell to the Purchasers, and the Purchasers to purchase from the Company, an additional tranche of 1,600,000 units, each unit consisting of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock convertible into one share of the Company's common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock (the "Tranche D Units"), if certain conditions are met. A condition to the sale of the Tranche D Units, among others, is that the closing bid price of the Company's common stock be more than $7 per share for thirty consecutive trading days. The price for the Tranche D Units is $7 per Unit and the exercise price of the warrants contained in the Tranche D Unit will be $7.70. The March Purchase Agreement terminates the commitment for Tranche B Units previously disclosed. Management is actively pursuing other alternatives until such time as market conditions are more favorable to obtaining additional equity financing. There can be no assurance that additional funding will be available or, if available, that it will be available on acceptable terms or in required amounts. Management projects that there will not be sufficient cash flows from operating activities during the next twelve months to provide capital for the Company to sustain its operations. Year 2000 Issue Computer systems, software applications, and microprocessor dependent equipment may cease to function properly or generate erroneous data when the year 2000 arrives. The problem affects those systems or products that are programmed to accept a two-digit code in date code fields. To correctly identify the year 2000, a four-digit date code field will be required to be what is commonly termed "year 2000 compliant." To date, the Company has invested approximately $60,000 in an effort to certify all aspects of its business are year 2000 compliant. The areas of its business which have been targeted for compliance testing are operations and software products and services. The Company conducted the certification process over a three-month period in which all software products and service components under direct control certified year 2000 compliant. For the operational components and remaining software and services that are under the control of third party organizations, the Company has sought their efforts to provide 23 written confirmation and evidence of compliance. The Company may realize operational exposure and risk if the systems for which it is dependent upon to conduct day-to-day operations are not year 2000 compliant. The potential areas of software exposure include: o electronic data exchange systems operated by third parties with whom the Company transacts business, o server software which the Company uses to present content and advertising to its customers and partners, and o computers, software, telephone systems and other equipment used internally. In October 1997, the Company initiated the review and assessment of all of its computerized hardware and internal-use software systems to ensure that such systems will function properly in the year 2000 and beyond. During the last two years, its computerized information systems have been substantially upgraded to be year 2000 compliant. The Company has not yet developed a contingency plan in the event that any non-compliant critical systems are not remedied by the year 2000, nor has it formulated a timetable to create such a contingency plan. It is possible that costs associated with year 2000 compliance efforts may exceed current projections of an additional $40,000 to reach total compliance. In such a case, these costs could have a material impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations. It is also possible that if systems material to the Company's operations have not been made year 2000 compliant, or if third parties fail to make their systems compliant in a timely manner, the year 2000 issue could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, and results of operations. This would result in an inability to provide functioning software and services to the Company's clients in a timely manner, and could then result in lost revenues from these clients, until such problems are resolved by the Company or the responsible third parties. Forward-Looking Information Statements regarding the Company's expectations as to future revenue from its business strategy, and certain other statements presented herein, constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although the Company believes that its expectations are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from expectations. In addition to matters affecting the Company's industry generally, factors which could cause actual results to differ from expectations include, but are not limited to (1) the Company has only generated minimal revenue from its Internet businesses, and has not generated and may not generate the level of sales, users or advertisers anticipated, and (2) the costs to market the Company's Internet services. 24 Item 6 EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K (a) The following exhibits are filed herewith Exhibit 27 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
