OCG TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1 - ORGANIZATION
OCG Technology, Inc. ("OCG") together with its subsidiaries is engaged
in the development, marketing, and distribution of software and diagnostic
products for the healthcare industry.
The Company entered into an Internet service agreement with a medical
center for the use of its medical Web sites. Through use of these Web sites, OCG
expects to receive 70% of all advertising revenues through a revenue sharing
agreement with Hackensack University Medical Center.
2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S.
GAAP). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission regarding interim financial statements. Preparing financial
statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results and
outcomes may differ significantly from management's estimates and assumptions.
Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full
year. The information included in this Form 10-QSB should be read in conjunction
with the audited financial statements and notes included in the Form 10-KSB for
the year ended June 30, 2003.
3 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed below,
the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and negative cash
flows that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are described below. The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The Company has experienced recurring losses from operations and has
relied on the sale of equity interests in the Company to fund its operations. If
necessary, the Company intends to provide additional working capital through the
sale of equity interests in the Company. Although, in the past the Company has
been able to provide working capital through the sale of equity interests in the
Company, there can be no assurances that the Company will succeed in its
efforts, which creates a doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
During the prior fiscal year, the Company's marketing efforts had been
concentrated on its Web products. However, during the fiscal year ended June 30,
2002, the PrimeCareTM System was selected to be part of a major international
health care information management program anticipated to be installed in a
number of countries as their health care information system. The first of these
country contracts was recently announced. A five year, three-phase contract was
awarded to create a health care information infrastructure for a nation of 11
million people. During phase one of the contract, the current health care
infrastructure of the country will be assessed to determine the final
specifications for the new system. After approval of the final specifications by
the country's Ministry of Health the second phase will commence. The second
phase consists of the installation and operation of a comprehensive health care
information system throughout the country. Upon commencement of phase two,
PrimeCare(TM) Version 9 will be an integral part of the country's comprehensive
health care information system. PrimeCare(TM) Version 9 will provide health care
4
personnel and patients a simple, effective means of entering medical data for
processing and analysis. Successful completion of these contracts will produce
significant revenues for the Company and will materially increase the awareness
of PrimeCare(TM) Version 9 in the health care industry. The Company does not
anticipate any revenues from this contract until the fourth quarter of the
current fiscal year. However, there is no certainty of the country
participating, nor any certainty of revenues.
4 - PER SHARE DATA
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income
(loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
during the periods. Diluted income per share is computed by dividing the net
income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
during the period. Stock warrants and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock have
been excluded from the diluted loss per share and have not been presented
because their effect would have been antidilutive.
5 - SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY
During the three months ended December 31, 2003, an aggregate of
1,466,667 shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the
"Shares"), were sold for $44,000 or $0.03 per share. The Shares sold were not
registered and bear a restrictive legend. The closing market price on the day
the sale was authorized was $0.03.
During the three months ended September 30, 2003, for services rendered
in accordance with the terms of a consulting agreement, warrants were issued to
purchase a total of 15,000 shares of the Company's common stock at the exercise
price of $0.15 per share with exercise dates of said warrants expiring between
September 1, 2005 and December 1, 2005. The Company reflected a total expense of
$6,000 for the three month period ending September 30, 2003.
During the three months ended September 30, 2003, an aggregate of
36,670 shares of the Company's Series C Preferred Stock, par value $0.10 per
share, were sold for $110,000 or $3.00 per share.
6 - MARKETABLE SECURITIES
The Company had advanced funds totaling $334,500, plus accrued interest
at 7% per annum, pursuant to a grid note, dated February 4, 2002 (the "Note").
In consideration for these advances, the Company received warrants to purchase
common stock of the borrower, exercisable over a period of three years from the
date of issuance, at a price of $0.25 per share. The Company received a security
interest in accounts receivable of the borrower anticipated to be generated
under certain sales contracts which provide for borrower to install and maintain
the health care system for certain countries. The Company is also a
subcontractor of the borrower. The borrower has recently announced that it has
received the first of these contracts.
On October 10, 2003, the Company agreed to accept 3,709,230 restricted
(unregistered) shares of the borrower's common stock, par value $0.0001 per
share, (the "Stock") in full payment of the Note and accrued interest. These
equity securities, are classified as available-for-sale securities and are
carried at quoted market value. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as a
separate component of shareholders' equity, net of applicable income taxes.
Realized gains and losses and declines in value deemed to be other than
temporary on available-for-sale securities are included in other income. During
the three months ended December 31, 2003, the Company sold 1,260,000 shares of
the Stock for a net sales price of $132,761 and realized a gain of $6,761 on the
sale. The Company valued the remaining Stock to reflect its market value as of
December 31, 2003. The price per share of Stock on that date was $0.06.
7 - NOTES PAYABLE
A note of $8,700 is payable to a shareholder.
A note payable to a shareholder of $50,000 is unsecured, bears interest
at 4% per annum and is convertible into 5,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock
at the rate of $10 per share. The date for payment of the note has been extended
until June 15, 2005.
A note payable to a shareholder in the amount of $100,000 is unsecured,
bears interest in the form of warrants to purchase 100,000 shares, on or before
February 4, 2004, of the Company's common stock at the purchase price of $0.10
per share. The warrants expired and were not exercised. The date for payment of
the note has been extended until February 4, 2005.
The Company has a revolving line of credit with RBC Centura Bank which
provides for a maximum principal borrowing of $20,000. Interest is payable
5
monthly on the average daily loan balance at the variable interest rate equal to
the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 3% as determined on the 25th day of the
month preceding the month in which the interest is charged. The credit line
provides for a minimum monthly repayment equal to at least 3% of the then
outstanding loan balance.
8 - COMPREHENSIVE LOSS
The components of comprehensive loss were as follows:
Six Months Ended December 31,
2003 2002

============ ============
9 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB
Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46").
FIN 46 is applicable immediately for variable interest entities created after
January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities created before February 1,
2003, the provisions of FIN 46 were originally applicable no later than July 1,
2003. The Company has not created any variable interest entities after January
31, 2003. In December 2003 the FASB deliberated certain proposed modifications
and revised FIN 46 ("FIN 46 (R)"). The revised provisions are applicable no
later than the first reporting period ending after March 15, 2004. The adoption
of FIN 46 and FIN 46 (R) is not anticipated to have a material impact on the
Company's financial reporting and disclosures.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity". SFAS
No. 150 changes the accounting for certain financial instruments that, under
previous guidance, could be classified as equity or "mezzanine" equity, by now
requiring those instruments to be classified as liabilities (or assets in some
circumstances) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Further, SFAS No. 150 requires
disclosure regarding the terms of those instruments and settlement alternatives.
The guidance in SFAS No. 150 generally is effective for all financial
instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and is otherwise
effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15,
2003. The Company has evaluated SFAS No. 150 and determined that it does not
have an impact on the Company's financial reporting and disclosures.

OCG TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
A SUMMARY OF INCREASES (DECREASES) IN THE ITEMS INCLUDED IN
THE CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF LOSS IS SHOWN BELOW:
General
- -------
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.
The following discussion contains certain forward_looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Company intends that such
forward_looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created thereby. These
forward_looking statements include predictions, estimates and other statements
that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. While this outlook represents
the Company's current judgment on the future direction of the business, such
risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from any
future performance suggested herein.
The Company has experienced recurring losses from operations and has relied on
the sale of equity interests in the Company to fund its operations. If
necessary, the Company intends to provide additional working capital through the
sale of equity interests in the Company. Although, in the past, the Company has
been able to provide working capital through the sale of equity interests in the
Company, there can be no assurances that the Company will succeed in its
efforts, which creates a doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
- ------------------------------------------
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
following are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the
United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires
us to make estimates and judgements that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities. We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgements
involved in the accounting policies described below have the greatest potential
impact on our financial statements, so we consider these to be our critical
accounting policies. Because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters,
actual results could differ from the estimates we use in applying the critical
accounting policies. Within the context of these critical accounting policies,
we are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances
which would result in materially different amounts being reported.
Capitalized Software Costs
- --------------------------
Capitalized software costs are amortized over the estimated useful life. Changes
in circumstances, such as technological advances or shortfalls in marketing
estimates, can result in differences between the actual and estimated useful
life. Periodically, and when conditions dictate, we reevaluate the
recoverability of the carrying value and useful life of this long-lived asset
and make the necessary adjustments to reflect the asset at its proper estimated
value and amortize it over the remaining estimated useful life.
The Company had a writeoff of $187,819 of capitalized software costs during the
year ended June 30, 2003 in compliance with the Company's policy relating to
reevaluating the value and useful life of this long-lived asset.
Revenue Recognition
- -------------------
The Company has four sources of income: (1) sale of inventoried merchandise on
our Web sites; (2) commissions received from vendors who link to our Web sites;
(3) advertising fees; and (4) software license fees.
Sale of inventoried merchandise.
- -------------------------------
This revenue stream is reported on a "gross" basis in compliance with EITF
99-19, because the Company purchases the merchandise from the source it selects;
is at risk for the purchaser's credit; and the Company ships the merchandise.
The Company reports the gross sales price as revenue and expense the cost of the
merchandise and the shipping costs as "cost of sales". The Company is almost
always paid by credit card at the time of purchase and occasionally by check.
Sales are booked when the merchandise is shipped. The merchandise is not shipped
until the credit is approved.
Commissions received from vendors
- ---------------------------------
The Company acts as a commissioned broker by displaying a vendors products on
the Company's Web sites. When a consumer indicates a desire to purchase an item,
the order is collected through the Web site and processed by the third party
seller. The Company receives a commission on such sale after it is consummated.
When the Company is paid, it reports the "commissions" on a "net" basis in
7
compliance with EITF 99-19. The Company reports commissions this way because:
(a) it does not have any direct costs; (b) it does not purchase the product
sold; and (c) it does not have any credit risk on the sale, and it does not
handle or ship the product when sold. The Company notifies the seller of an
interested buyer and it receives a commission check from the seller upon the
consummation of a sale.. At that time the Company reports the revenue on a "net"
basis.
Advertising fees
- ----------------
The Company receives fees for placing advertisements on its Web sites. At the
end of the month the Company sends an invoice to the advertiser and enters it on
its books as income from advertising fees.
Software license fees
- ---------------------
The Company accounts for software license fees in accordance with SOP 97-2.
Revenues are recognized when all of the following criteria are met: (a)
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (b) delivery has occurred; (c) the
vendors fee is fixed or determinable; and (d) collectiblity is probable.
All licenses are evidenced by a written contract. License fees are either annual
fees, generally payable quarterly in advance, or are based on uses, which are
purchased before use. The license fee includes updates to the software, but only
during the term of the license. The software contains considerable medical
information and the Company keeps this medical content reasonably current. The
Company does not sell the software or any updates separately and therefore, has
not established VSOE. The Company will recognize income ratably over the license
term.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Total revenues increased $16,567 and $42,664 for the three and six months ended
December 31, 2003, as compared to the same period for 2002, as the result of an
increase in the sale of merchandise due an increase of visitors to our Web sites
and the Company securing advertising contracts. Cost of sales increased $3,950
and $12,563 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2003 as compared to
the same period for 2002. The Company's revenues for the six months ended
December 31, 2003, consisted of: $96,449 from the sale of merchandise (an
increase of $14,955 for the same period in 2002); $13,382 from commissions (an
increase of $944 for the same period in 2002); and $29,756 from advertising fees
(an increase of $26,756 over the same period in 2002).
Marketing, general and administrative expenses decreased $3,876 and $25,891 for
the three and six months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the same period
for 2002, primarily from the decrease of approximately: $25,000 in sales and
marketing expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
At December 31, 2003, the Company had a current ratio of 4.15 to 1 compared to
5.32 to 1 as of December 31, 2002. The decrease in current ratio is due
primarily to the decrease in inventory, interest receivable and notes
receivable. The net loss from operations for the six months ended December 31,
2003, was $102,947 compared to $200,699 for the prior year. The reduction in the
net loss from operations was due to an increase of approximately $30,000 in net
revenues and a decrease of approximately $26,000 in marketing, general and
administrative expenses and approximately $40,000 in depreciation and
amortization for the six months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the same
period of 2002. Approximately $46,000 or 46% of the net loss from operations for
the six months ended December 31, 2003, were non-cash charges consisting of
Depreciation and Amortization in the amount of $39,953; and Consulting Services
in the amount of $6,000 paid through the issuance of 15,000 warrants. The
Company has experienced recurring losses from operations and has been unable to
provide sufficient working capital from operations and has relied significantly
on the sale of equity interests in the Company, and the exercise of warrants and
loans from shareholders to fund its operations.
Cash on hand, inventory, receivables and marketable securities were $282,248 at
December 31, 2003. During the six months ended December 31, 2003, the Company
raised $44,000 through the sale of common stock. In addition, as of December 31,
2003, the Company has $130,000 of notes receivable related to the purchase of
the Company's common stock through the exercise of warrants. In October, 2003,
the Company received 3,709,230 restricted (unregistered) shares of the
borrower's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, (the "Shares") in full
payment of the Note and accrued interest. During the three months ended December
31, 2003, the Company sold 1,260,000 Shares for the net sales price of $132,761,
a net gain over cost of $6,761. Although, in the past, the Company's principal
means of overcoming its cash shortfalls from operations was from the sale of the
Company's stock, loans and the exercise of warrants, there can be no assurances
that the Company will succeed in its efforts in the future.
The Company believes that it could obtain sufficient working capital from
operations through marketing PrimeCareTM Version 9 and its Internet products.

Competition:
- -----------
The Company has not identified any competitive patient management system which
embodies all the features of the PrimeCareTM System, in particular the complaint
specific, interactive Questionnaires completed by the patient and the report
generated by the patient's responses. The Company believes that it has the only
in-office patient management system and Web sites that enable physicians to
obtain the patient's detailed History of Present Illness by having the patient
answer problem-specific HPI Questionnaires on a PC in the office or via the
Internet. However, other companies market systems which may have some of the
features of the PrimeCareTM System and some companies market medical office
products which perform different functions than those performed by the
PrimeCareTM System. To date, market penetration by both the Company and its
competitors has been limited.
Products Overview.
- -----------------
PrimeCare(TM) Patient Management System, Version 9
--------------------------------------------------
PrimeCare(TM) Patient Management System, Version 9 ("PrimeCareTM Version 9") is
a complete, ground-up redesign and re-write of the Company's initial EMR, the
PrimeCareTM Patient Management System ("PCPMS"). The overall system architecture
has been changed; the supporting data base structures have been enhanced; the
client interface has been redesigned to more accurately reflect the operational
needs of the end-users, and user installation has been greatly simplified.
PrimeCareTM Version 9 is a user friendly, patient management system that is
patient, physician and staff, interactive. PrimeCareTM Version 9: (i) creates an
electronic medical record documenting the patient physician encounter; (ii) is
compatible with practice management and billing systems, EMR and CPR systems;
(iii) is Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act ("HIPAA") compliant;
(iv) is designed for use in ambulatory clinics, group and individual practices;
(v) uses an authoritative and comprehensive knowledge database of approximately
280 symptom and problem oriented patient Questionnaires for diagnostic and
follow-up office visits; (vi) collectively contains over 100,000 complaint and
disease state questions, over 2,000 diagnoses, over 675 physician reference
articles, over 300 patient education articles; (vii) allows the staff to
schedule the appropriate Questionnaire and enter the vital signs; (viii)
interacts directly with the patient by having the patient select the answers
that apply to their problem from the Questionnaire; (ix) does not require the
patient to have computer or typing skills; (x) enables the physician to obtain
their patients' detailed History of Present Illness ("HPI") by having the
patient answer the Questionnaires without requiring physician or staff time;
(xi) allows the physician to interact directly with PrimeCareTM Version 9 to
select and document the normal and abnormal physical findings, assessments,
tests, prescriptions and treatment plan for the patient; (xii) provides
automatic (real time) calculation of HCFA's Evaluation and Management ("E&M")
code, with a full audit trail, used for determining the reimbursement level by
Medicare and other third party payers for the office visit; (xiii) virtually
eliminates dictation and transcription costs; (xiv) reduces risk of malpractice
liability due to errors of omission and "failure to consider"; (xv) permits
patients to answer Questionnaires at their own speed (xvi) creates significant
clinical and patient databases for outcomes research.
When the patient arrives at the doctor's office, a designated staff member
selects the appropriate Questionnaire based upon the patient's chief complaint
and/or symptom and enters the patient's vital signs. The patient is then seated
at a computer and answers complaint_specific questions by using either the
keyboard number keys or mouse to indicate answers that apply to him or her. No
typing or computer skills are required. When the patient has completed the
Questionnaire, PrimeCareTM Version 9 creates a Preliminary Report (the "Report")
for the physician to review before examining the patient. The Report contains
the patient's current problems, medications and allergies, and the patient's
detailed HPI that includes all of positive and significant negative subjective
responses, vital signs and an alphabetical list of the diagnostic possibilities
with the patient's responses repeated that support, or give rise, to each
diagnostic possibility. By freeing up the time physicians would normally have to
spend asking patient history questions and recording responses, PrimeCareTM
Version 9 permits physicians to see more patients and to spend more quality time
with each patient. PrimeCareTM Version 9 is also easy for physicians to
understand and use. The same simple key stroke or mouse click process allows the
physician or appropriate staff member to select and document the: physical
findings (normal and abnormal), assessment, tests, treatment plan, prescribed
medications, and patient education materials to be distributed and to schedule
follow-up visits. The physician or appropriate staff member can also type a
comment that expands upon: an answer selected by the patient in the
Questionnaire, a physical finding, an assessment, a treatment plan, a
prescription, or about any subject that may be appropriate. At the conclusion of
the encounter a final summary report of the visit that includes, the patient's
HPI, physical findings, assessment, tests, prescriptions, treatment plan,
patient educational materials and the scheduled follow-up visit, are stored
electronically in the patient's file, and can be printed for the patient.
PrimeCareTM Version 9: standardizes the patient record; assures consistency in
patient care; creates a patient database for clinical and outcomes research;
supports utilization review and quality assurance audits; improves the quality
of care; increases efficiency and productivity of the physician's practice;
automatically generates a problem list; incorporates patient care algorithms and
9
clinical practice guidelines; permits, with appropriate security controls, both
local and remote, on-line electronic retrieval of patient records and hard copy
print outs; enables rapid access to important patient data for clinical care;
contains and provides patient education materials about disease, disease
management, tests and medications; and provides physician reference materials.
PrimeCareTM Version 9's overall system architecture has been redesigned away
from a local network based two-tier client-server application, used in the prior
version of the PCPMS, to incorporate a robust three-tier
client-provider-relational database management system ("RDBMS") application,
designed for geographically separated tiers. The client (end-user) tier of
PrimeCareTM Version 9 is designed to connect with the middle or provider
(server) tier via internet communications. The provider and data base tiers are
designed to support multiple, distinct clients simultaneously. The client
application has been designed to allow easy internalization and localization.
Supporting data bases have been redesigned to remove unnecessary redundancies,
including a major redesign of the patient/physician encounter questionnaire.
Also, provisions have been added for support of an unlimited number of
alternative languages. Currently, language support is offered in, or being
developed for, English, Spanish, French, and Simplified Chinese.
PrimeCare(TM) Version 9 continues to be a Windows(TM) application. Although the
client tier will run on Windows 95 or any later Windows desktop operating
system, it performs best when hosted on Windows 2000, Windows NT, or Windows XP.
The server (provider tier) and data base tiers of PrimeCare(TM) Patient
Management System, Version 9 should be hosted on redundant Windows 2000 or
Windows XP servers with appropriate backup, and standby support.
The three-tier architecture of PrimeCareTM Version 9 provides many advantages,
including easy client installation; reduced on-site support requirements;
enhanced data security; and maximum flexibility. PrimeCareTM Version 9's reduced
installation and maintenance costs and its flexibility enables it to be adapted
to a wide variety of health care organizational uses, including national and
local health care systems, military organizations, correctional facilities,
HMOs, hospitals with outpatient services, clinics, group practices and solo
practitioners.
As a three-tier application, PrimeCareTM Version 9, requires only that the
client tier application be installed at the end-user location. This system
architecture greatly simplifies both user installation and system maintenance.
Although the client (end-user) tier uses the internet to communicate with the
provider and data base tiers, it is not a browser-based application, thereby
eliminating the many compatibility and security issues involved in supporting
multiple browser configurations. The PrimeCareTM Version 9 client is a specially
written front-end application, designed to be downloaded by the client via a web
connection, and then installed at the client's location using normal Windows
installation procedures.
The system is designed to support multiple reimbursement models, including free
demo, no-charge use, sponsored use, flat fee, periodic (monthly / annual) fee,
activity based fees, and option-based fees.
PrimeCareTM Patient Management System ("PCPMS")
-----------------------------------------------
The PCPMS was the Company's initial EMR offering. The Company has discontinued
marketing the PCPMS
Code ComplierTM:
---------------
The Company has also developed Code ComplierTM an application software program
that was designed to be used in conjunction with The Company's PrimeCareTM and
PrimeCareOnTheWeb.comTM. As each item of information is entered into and
collected by PrimeCareTM during the patient encounter, the CodeComplierTM
organizes the data in the proper classification and using the 1997 HCFA
guidelines, automatically calculates HCFA's Evaluation and Management code
level, with full audit trail, used for determining the reimbursement level by
Medicare and other third party payors for the History, Physical Findings and
Decision Making sections the office visit. It totally eliminates the time and
effort which would otherwise be required by the physician or office personnel to
complete this task. CodeComplierTM takes the guess work out of E&M and third
party payer compliance. CodeComplier is an integral part of PrimeCareTM Version
9.
PrimeCareOnTheWeb.com (the "PCW Site"):
---------------------
The PCW Site is a unique physician and patient interactive Site that: (i) uses
PrimeCare's unique Questionnaires for diagnostic and follow-up office visits,
physician reference articles, patient education material, CodeComplierTM for
real time calculation of E&M code and the scheduler portion of PrimeCareTM; (ii)
enables physicians to obtain their patient's detailed HPI by having the patient
answer Questionnaires via the Internet without requiring physician time; (iii)
saves the physician and staff the time required to obtain the HPI, thus allowing
them to give more attention to each patient and/or see more patients; (iv)
produces an extremely comprehensive HPI that includes all of the "yes" answers,
pertinent negatives and a list of the diagnostic possibilities with the answers
repeated that support each diagnostic consideration; (v) is HIPAA compliant;
10
(vi) protects all Internet communication and the confidentiality rights of every
user through a unique user ID and password per Questionnaire to be answered and
secure digital certificates from VeriSignTM, (vii) encrypts all data for
storage; (viii) enables creating a significant data base for outcomes research;

Revenue Sources and Marketing Strategy:
- --------------------------------------
Licensing Fees: During the prior fiscal year, the Company's marketing efforts
had been concentrated on its Web products. However, during the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2002, the PrimeCareTM System was selected to be part of a major
international health care information management program anticipated to be
installed in a number of countries as their health care system. The first of
these country contracts was recently concluded. A five year, three-phase
contract was awarded to create a health care information infrastructure for a
nation of 11 million people. During phase one of the contract, the current
health care infrastructure of the country will be assessed to determine the
final specifications for the new system. After approval of the final
specifications by the country's Ministry of Health the second phase will
commence. The second phase consists of the installation and operation of a
comprehensive health care information system throughout the country. Upon
commencement of phase two, PrimeCare(TM) Version 9 will be an integral part of
the country's comprehensive health care information system. PrimeCare(TM)
Version 9 will provide health care personnel and patients a simple, effective
means of entering medical data into this health care information management
system for processing and analysis. Successful completion of these contracts
should produce significant revenues for the Company and should materially
increase the awareness of PrimeCare(TM) Version 9 in the health care industry.
The actual value of this contract cannot be determined at this time. The Company
does not anticipate any revenues from this contract until the fourth quarter of
the current fiscal year.
The Company believes that the increased awareness of PrimeCare(TM) Version 9
arising from the above contract will enhance the Company's ability to obtain
additional contracts and annual licensing fees from large fixed population
groups, which includes, but is not limited to, other countries, labor unions,
medical insurance companies, HMOs, military forces and correctional facilities.
11
Advertising Fees:
- ----------------
The Company currently receives revenues from advertising. Advertising revenues
are dependant upon the number of visitors that use the Company's Web sites. The
Company believes that the use of PrimeCare(TM) Version 9 by licensees will
increase awareness and use of the Company's Web sites and thus result in
increased advertising fees.
The Company has entered into an agreement with Hackensack University Medical
Center ("HUMC"). The agreement provides for the use of the Company's Web sites
by HUMC's medical services organization ("MSO"), North Jersey Medical Management
Services, L.L.C. This MSO has over 1,000 physicians. HUMC, and its Physicians
Hospital Organization, have created www.HUMCMD.net , the only complete
Physician/Patient Internet Service Provider ("ISP") providing top quality
Internet connectivity to members of its physician network, plus access to key
internal HUMC applications.
The HUMCMD site has both a "Physician Portal" and "Patient Portal". The site
currently contains the Company's PCW Site and YOH Site. The Company's
advertising revenues are dependent upon HUMC's marketing efforts to its Staff
Physicians and patients.
Outcomes Research.
- -----------------
Potentially, the Company could receive fees for conducting outcomes research for
pharmaceutical companies and teaching hospitals. The Company anonymizes,
encrypts and stores both the completed diagnostic and follow-up Questionnaires.
This ever-growing medical database can be analyzed in various ways to determine
the effectiveness of treatment plans, medications, etc. However, at the present
time the Company does not receive revenues from this source.
Fitness Web Sites:
- -----------------
The Company's operation of the Web site known as www.DeniseAustin.com has
terminated. However, the Company has entered into two agreements with the new
manager of the Web site. Under one agreement, the Company operates the "shopping
cart" on the site and the second agreement retains the Company as the exclusive
seller of Denise Austin videos and DVDs. The new manager has agreed to commence
an aggressive marketing campaign to promote the site. The Company's percentage
of revenues has been reduced. However, the Company believes the increased
visitors to the site, as a result of the marketing campaign being instituted by
the new site manager, will result in greater net income for the Company. The
fitness and wellness Web site known as www.DeniseAustin.com features Denise
Austin, a nationally known fitness expert who has had a daily fitness show on
television for over 15 years, the Company's shopping cart sells a variety of
Denise Austin products on the Web site. Visitors and fans are able to shop
online for their favorite Denise Austin signature exercise videos, books,
equipment, gear, and private label apparel and nutraceuticals (when available),
as well as sign up for her monthly news letter, enjoy fitness tips, exercises,
motivation messages, and some of her favorite healthy recipes.
Marketing: The Company operates the comprehensive shopping area on the
DA Web site which offers a broad range of noncompeting products within the
fitness industry. The Company will share income from two sources - advertising
revenues and e-commerce. The Company derives revenues from this operation.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation
of the Company's management, including the President/Chief Financial Officer
("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures. Based on that evaluation, the President/CFO has concluded that as of
the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's disclosures,
controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that
information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or
submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed,
summarized and timely reported as provided in the Securities and Exchange
Commission rules and forms. The Company periodically reviews the design and
effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, including
compliance with various laws and regulations that apply to the Company's
operations. The Company makes modifications to improve the design and
effectiveness of its internal control structure, and may take other corrective
action, if the Company's reviews identify deficiencies or weaknesses in its
controls. No changes occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2003 in the
Company's internal controls over financial reporting that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal
control over financial reporting.
