(The Company is a successor to another company as the Company merged with a predecessor entity, a Delaware corporation, in June, 1996). In February, 1999 the Company changed its name from Chopp Computer Corporation to AntsSoftware.Com. The planned operations of the Company is in the computer field. From inception (September 24, 1996) to date (December 7, 1999) the Company has had no revenues. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION Property and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated over the estimated lives of approximately two to three years using the straight-line method. PATENTS AND VALUATION ALLOWANCE Patents are recorded at cost. Due to uncertainty as to recovery, a valuation allowance for the full carrying amount of the patents is recorded. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company does not have a policy for cash equivalents at this time. LOSS PER SHARE The computation of loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period presented. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. INCOME TAXES The Company records its income tax provision in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". (See Note 3). 7 ANTSSOFTWARE.COM (FKA CHOPP COMPUTER CORPORATION) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) October 31, 1999 FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Pursuant to SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included on its balance sheet at October 31, 1999. The Company considers the carrying value of such amounts in the financial statements to approximate their expected realization and interest rates, which approximate current market rates. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) In fiscal 1999, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. This statement establishes standards for the reporting of comprehensive income and its components in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The adoption of SFAS No. 130 required no additional disclosure for the Company and did not have any effect on the Company's financial position, as there was no difference between comprehensive loss and the net loss as reported. SEGMENT DISCLOSURES In fiscal 1999, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. This statement establishes standards for the way companies report information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements. The adoption of SFAS No. 131 required no additional disclosure for the Company as the Company operated in one principal business segment. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain items in prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. NOTE 2 - Basis of presentation and considerations related to continued existence (going concern) The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred net losses for the years ended April 30, 1999 and Six months ended October 31, 1999 of $610,691 and $242,110, respectively. Additionally, the Company's current liabilities are approximately the same as its current assets. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's management intends to raise additional operating funds through equity and/or debt offerings. However, there can be no assurance management will be successful in its endeavors. 8 ANTSSOFTWARE.COM (FKA CHOPP COMPUTER CORPORATION) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) October 31, 1999 NOTE 3 - Income taxes The Company records its income tax provision in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" which requires the use of the liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. Since the Company has not generated taxable income since inception, no provision for income taxes has been provided. At April 30, 1999, the Company did not have any significant tax net operating loss carryforwards (tax benefits resulting from losses for tax purposes have been fully reserved due to the uncertainty of a going concern). At October 31, 1999, the Company did not have any significant deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets. The Company is delinquent in its income tax return filings. NOTE 4 - Warrants As October 31, 1999, the Company had 2.050,000 warrants outstanding. These securities give the holder the right to purchase shares of the Company's restricted common stock in accordance with the terms of the instrument. 1,300,000 warrants are exercisable at 25 through March 1, 2002. 100,000 warrants are exercisable at 50 through March 7, 2000. 300,000 warrants exercisable at 75 through July 1, 2004. 350,000 warrants exercisable through August 2, 2004. 9 ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company's immediate plans call for the completion of a Beta test That will run ANTs software on a simulated business application, using application software provided by Lawson Software. This test will be run with ANTs and without ANTs in order that the benefits of ANTs can be independently documented. All tests completed to date have indicated that ANTS is totally scalable, i.e. the software can run on 1-64,000 processors without having to have the software re-written. The tests also verified that ANTs software is independent of any operating system and runs on all platforms, restricted only by the architecture of the multiprocessors or the computer network. This Beta test is all the Company needs to prove its technology and create the investment interest needed to adequately finance the future growth of ANTs. ANTs financial status has improved in the last quarter in that our cash At the end of the quarter was $376,340, and private placements completed subsequent To October 31, 1999 raised an additional $1,600,000. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The company had no revenue in the quarter and does not anticipate that it will have revenues until sometime in year 2000. CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY RESOURCES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Historically the Company has been a start-up company that has been funded by private placements and Government Grants. Management is currently completing a business plan that it plans on using as a basis for a secondary offering for a minimum of $5,000,000.00. There is no certainty that this proposed funding will be completed. With $376,340.00 on hand as of October 31, 1999 and the $1,600,000 raised in November, 1999, the company has adequate funds to take the Company through to first quarter, 2001. 10 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The forward-looking statements herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company will have adequate financial resources to fund the development and operation of its business, and there will be no material adverse change in the Company's operations or business. The foregoing assumptions are based on judgments with respect to, among other things, information available to the Company, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions. All are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the Company's control. Accordingly, although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any such assumption could prove to be inaccurate and therefore there can be no assurance that the results contemplated in the forward-looking statements will be realized. There are a number of other risks presented by the Company's business and operations which could cause the Company's financial performance to vary markedly from prior results or results contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Management decisions, including budgeting, are subjective in many respects and periodic revisions must be made to reflect actual conditions and business developments, the impact of which may cause the Company to alter its capital investment and other expenditures, which may also adversely affect the Company's results of operations. In light of significant uncertainties inherent in forward-looking information included in this quarterly Report on Form 10QSB, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any person that the Company's objectives or plans will be achieved.
