Notes to Condensed Unaudited Financial Statements
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial information of the Company is prepared in accordance
with the rules prescribed for filing condensed interim financial statements and,
accordingly, does not include all disclosures that may be necessary for complete
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. The disclosures presented are sufficient, in management's opinion,
to make the interim information presented not misleading. All adjustments,
consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary so as to make
the interim information not misleading, have been made. Results of operations
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of
results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
1998. It is recommended that this financial information be read with the
complete financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997 previously filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
Per Share Information
As of December 31, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", which specifies the method of
computation, presentation and disclosure for earnings per share. SFAS No. 128
requires the presentation of two earnings per share amounts, basic and diluted.
Basic earnings per share is calculated using the average number of common shares
outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the average
number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of outstanding
stock options using the "treasury stock" method.
The basic and diluted earnings per share are the same since the Company had a
net loss for 1998 and 1997 and the inclusion of stock options and other
incremental shares would be antidilutive. Options and warrants to purchase
231,334 and 384,001 shares of common stock at March 31, 1998 and 1997
respectively were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share
because the Company had a net loss and their effect would be antidilutive.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 1997
Net Revenues. For three months ended March 31, 1998 net sales were $210,143
versus $188,531 in the same period of the prior year. The rise in revenues is
primarily attributed to increased marketing efforts resulting in the growth of
Internet subscribers and web development projects. The Company believes that
revenues will continue to increase as additional marketing plans are implemented
that focus on increasing name brand recognition and as the number of network
points of presence (POPs) increase.
Operating Expenses. For three months ended March 31, 1998, total operating
expenses were $380,029 versus $385,976 in the same period of the prior year.
This decrease of $5,947 is primarily attributed to the implementation of several
cost reduction or cost containment steps. The company successfully terminated
its Visalia, California office rental lease resulting in lower operating
expenses. The Company will also seek to reduce operating expenses by
renegotiating or canceling its Shaw Ave Capital Lease. However, the Company
believes that operating expenses will increase as revenues increase.
Operating Loss. The Company's operating loss for the period ending March
31, 1998 totaled $169,886 versus $197,445 in 1997, representing a decrease of
$27,559 or 13.9%. This decrease is due to a rise in revenues coupled with a
decrease in total operating expenses. Management believes that operating results
will continue to improve as revenues increase.
Interest income (expense). Net interest expense totaled $258,501 for the
period ending March 31, 1998 versus net interest income of $1,736 in 1997. The
increase in net interest expense of $260,237 is primarily attributable to the
amortization of debt issuance costs (issuance of 150,000 shares of Common Stock,
commissions and loan interest expense) in connection with the 1997 Bridge Loan
financing.
Other income. Net other income decreased to $45,740 from $99,870 for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 and March 31, 1997, respectively. This
decrease in 1998 is due to lower rental income generated by the Shaw Avenue
building and the absence of miscellaneous sales.
9
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the three months ended March 31,1998, the Company used $113,689 of cash for
operating activities primarily as a result of the net loss for the period. The
Company has a working capital deficiency of $909,725 at March 31, 1998. The
Company intends to reduce the working capital deficiency by increasing sales and
attempting to obtain long term financing through the sale of its securities in a
public offering. The Company is offering 1,050,000 units (one share of common
stock and one warrant) at $5.75 through an Underwriter. The Company's
registration statement was declared effective on May 13, 1998 and closing is to
occur on May 19, 1998.
Capital expenditures relating primarily to the purchase of computer equipment,
furniture and fixtures, and software amounted to $32,006 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998. The capital investment is mainly in computer equipment to
sustain future growth of the Company.
