ALTERNATE MARKETING NETWORKS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) 1. The interim financial data is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods. The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the year ending December 31, 2000. 2. The organization and business of the Company, accounting policies followed by the Company and other information are contained in the notes to the Company's financial statements filed as part of the Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the Form 10-KSB. 3. Income Taxes: At June 30, 2000, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3,630,000, which are available to reduce future taxable income. Related deferred tax assets are fully reserved for. These carryforwards expire in 2006 to 2013. The net operating loss carryforwards include approximately $2,900,000 which relate to the operations of National Home Delivery, Inc. prior to the pooling of interest and are subject to certain limitations. The difference between income tax expense at the U.S. statutory rate and the Company's actual income tax is primarily attributable to a full valuation allowance recorded on the Company's deferred tax items. 4.

Segment Information: Management has historically viewed the Company as having one reportable operating segment, advertising and marketing, based upon the means by which operating results are routinely reviewed by management to evaluate results and allocate resources. It recently revised the basis by which profitability is evaluated and assets and resources are allocated whereby operations are divided into three operating segments by product areas: offline advertising ALTERNATE MARKETING NETWORKS, INC.

Segment Information, continued: and marketing includes sampling and newspaper advertising, online marketing includes online advertising and the proprietary Internet tracking services, directory marketing includes delivery and marketing of telephone directories.

AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION Overview and Plan of Operation Alternate Marketing Networks, Inc. is a national marketing services company that provides advertising, marketing and Internet-based logistics services for national advertisers and publishers throughout the United States. The Company's objective is to become a total marketing solutions provider serving both online and offline needs of clients in the e-commerce, automotive, consumer package goods, telecommunications and other industries. The Company provides its clients with three complementary types of comprehensive marketing services, including: * Offline Advertising and Marketing. The Company has a well-established network of advertising placement and in-home sampling and coupon programs for clients such as Kellogg, America Online, travelocity.com and others. * Online Marketing. The Company provides online advertising as well as tracking capabilities for its offline activities through its proprietary itrack services, such as itrackfreight.com. * Directory Marketing. The Company provides delivery and marketing of telephone directories for regional and national telephone companies such as GTE/Bell Atlantic and others. The Company's strategic advantage is its proprietary database, the Media Optimizer TM, and its Internet-based End-To-End TM tracking system. Through use of these systems, the Company is able to match client targeting requests, offer efficient media capabilities, and provide sophisticated Internet tracking systems. The Company's clients include packaged goods clients who desire a sample to be delivered to a targeted household audience, national advertisers who place Run of Press (ROP) or insert advertisements into newspapers, and telephone directory publishers who wish to have their directories delivered to the households of communities across the nation. The Company believes it offers these clients unrestricted reach, unequaled access and unduplicated delivery to approximately 100 million households in the United States. In May 2000, the Company announced its first branded product, La Canasta. La Canasta will launch in November 2000 in an upscale co-op environment to reach high-density Hispanic block groups. The Company plans to deliver this product during peak shopping seasons throughout the year. In addition to these offline marketing services, the Company has recently implemented an initiative to increase the online marketing services available to its clients. One step toward this goal was the establishing of an Internet advisory board. Other plans will focus on expanding current online offerings, developing new Internet products to meet the online needs of its traditional marketing clients, and expanding sales of its offline sampling, advertising and marketing services to dot-com companies. Results of Operations - Quarter During the second fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2000, the Company's offline advertising and marketing segment continued experiencing softness in orders from consumer package goods clients, thus causing lower than anticipated sales. Sales for the 2000 quarter were down approximately 31% from the same period the preceding year, primarily due to softness in this segment. The gross profit for this year's quarter was approximately the same as the previous year (23.7% for 2000 and 23.4% for 1999); however, direct costs were higher than projected due to low unemployment levels, resulting in a relatively limited available pool of contract carriers for the Company's telephone directory deliveries. During the quarter ending June 30, 2000, selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately 21% over the same period last year. This was partially due to an increase in expenses associated with evaluating potential acquisition candidates and other costs associated with the Company's strategic growth initiatives. The Company incurred higher personnel and travel expenses associated with expanding the client base and expansion of services thru its acquisition and assimilation of Total Logistics and AdTrackMedia, as well as certain corporate expenses. Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $6,907 and $9,021 respectively. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $0 and $15,293 respectively. Results of Operations - Six Months During the six month period ended June 30, 2000, the Company experienced softness in orders from consumer package goods clients, thus causing lower than anticipated sales. Sales for the 2000 period were down approximately 28% from the same period the preceding year. The gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was up over the same period the previous year due to the mix of revenues and the addition of the higher margin revenues associated with the acquisitions (2000 was 25.4% and 1999 was 22.3%). During the six months ending June 30, 2000, selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately 16% over the same period last year. As the Company continues to seek new products, new clients, and potential business acquisition and alliance partners, it incurs additional expenses associated with increased personnel, travel, and legal and professional fees. The company also continues to invest in improving its operational Internet tracking and quality control services. Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $20,663 and $14,502 respectively. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $0 and $25,462 respectively. Fluctuation in Revenues Due to the timing of primarily product sample programs, the Company's revenues may fluctuate from quarter to quarter and from year to year. Liquidity and Capital Resources During the first six months of 2000, the Company's cash balance decreased by $1,099,032 primarily due to payments for acquisitions and the net loss incurred. During 2000, operating activities consisted of the net loss of $431,146, depreciation and amortization expense of $143,811, and a decrease in working capital of $344,455. During the same period in 1999, the Company's cash balance decreased by $222,600 primarily due to working capital fluctuations. During the six months in 1999, operating activities included the net profit of $573,201, depreciation and amortization expense of $123,811, and an increase in working capital of $284,034. In addition, in the 2000 six month period, the Company used approximately $197,000 to purchase computer and office equipment, to enhance the capabilities of its software and database system, the Media Optimizer TM, and for the development of its on-line sampling software. The Company has a bank line of credit for $2,500,000 to assist in future cash flow needs. The line of credit expires June 30, 2001. As of June 30, 2000, there was no balance outstanding. The Company believes that this line of credit along with its current cash flows will enable it to fund its current growth plans as well as meet its presently anticipated capital requirements. Outlook for the Future The Company anticipates sales for the second half will improve over the first half of 2000 as new fiscal budget years begin for many of the Company's clients. The Company also anticipates new revenues from online services now being offered to clients. Due to the larger than anticipated loss in the second quarter, the Company will place its focus on second half profitability and limit its new product offerings. The Company will also be exploring all possible strategic options in order to maximize shareholder value. Forward-looking Statements Except for historical information contained herein, the matters set forth in this management's discussion and analysis are forward-looking statements based on current expectations. Actual results may differ materially. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, competition, the timing of receipt of orders, the implementation of the Company's reorientation as a marketing services company, the effectiveness of the marketing program, and the Company's success in developing and capitalizing on strategic alliances.
