ZEITGEIST WERKS, INC. (A Development Stage Company) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 1996 (Unaudited) Note A - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ORGANIZATION Zeitgeist Werks, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on August 15, 1986 under the name Fata Morgana, Inc. On September 15, 1988, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to change its name to Edinburgh Capital, Inc. During April, 1994 the Company effected a 1 for 300 reverse stock split and on February 23, 1996 the Company effected a 3.13 for 1 forward split. All financial information and share data in this Report give retroactive effect to these two stock splits. On February 23, 1996 the Company changed its name to Zeitgeist Werks, Inc. On February 24, 1996, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Zeitgeist Inc. in exchange for 12,500,000 shares of its common stock. On April 5, 1996 the Company entered into an agreement to acquire MediaX. If the transaction is closed the Company will issue 2,037,500 shares of its common stock to the shareholders of MediaX and pay $350,000 in cash to such shareholders at closing. The transaction had not closed as of May 20, 1996. INCOME TAXES The Company has recorded no income tax benefit because it has incurred losses since its inception. Net operating losses can be carried forward for fifteen years. NET LOSS PER SHARE The net loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. DEFERRED OFFERING COSTS Costs incurred in connection with the public offering were charged against common stock proceeds. Note B - Preferred Stock The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a $.0001 par value. The preferred stock may be issued by the Board of Directors in one or more series. The Board shall determine the distinguish- ing features in each, including preferences, rights and restrictions, by reso- lution upon the establishment of such series. ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS The Company's financial condition improved during late 1995 when it received a loan of approximately $300,000. Since that time the Company has devoted its efforts towards certain strategic acquisitions and product development. On April 5, 1996 the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization with MediaX which provides for the merger of Media X into Zeitgeist, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The closing of this transaction was scheduled for May 4, 1996 and has subsequently been extended. The transaction is the subject of due diligence by both parties and the approval by the board of directors of both parties. If the transaction is closed, the Company will issue 2,037,500 shares of its common stock to the shareholders of MediaX and pay $350,000 in cash to such shareholders at closing. The Company would also have a contingent obligation to pay up to an additional $200,000 based on the achievement of certain income requirements in the future. The Company would also be required to issue an undetermined amount of stock options to the employees of MediaX. In connection with the agreement, Assisi Limited Partnership, the Company's largest shareholder, has agreed to sur- render for cancellation at least 2,037,500 shares of common stock on the closing. The Company is in the process of raising additional funds to pay for the MeadiaX transaction and for its strategic growth. The outcome of these efforts is critical to the Company's future and management is unable to determine the likelihood of success of these efforts. There are no meaningful comparisons which can be made between the results for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and March 31, 1995 because there were no business activities in either the Company or Zeitgeist, Inc. in the three months ended March 31, 1995. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to March 31, 1995 reflected an increased loss from ($6,709) to ($40,614). This increase was due to the increase in personnel and costs associated with implementing the Company's growth plans. At March 31, 1996, the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS None. Item 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES None. Item 3.
