Item 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Plan of Operation
(a) Liquidity
In the quarter, the Company made strides toward improving its liquidity. The
call center operation was able to reach a break-even level for the third
quarter ending April 30, 1998. The Company was able to reduce overhead by
approximately $25,000/month by closing the Alder grove office. The Alder
grove office was no longer required because the Company was no longer
importing US satellite dishes for sale in Canada; operations were centralized
at the Nanaimo office.
The current deficiency in working capital is being supported by shareholder
loans. Management intends to improve liquidity through equity financing.
Management's current intent is to undertake to raise at least $800,000.00 in
net proceeds to the Company. The majority of the funds raised will be used to
fund development and marketing of the Company's Internet web site which will
be focussed on the sale of entertainment products, primarily music CD's and
film video cassette products. Funds will also be used for working capital. A
portion of the funds raised will also be used to expand the call center
operations.
(b) Capital Resources
The Company continues to meet its obligations. The decrease in cash flow for
the nine months ended April 30, 1998 was $109,044 including a net loss of
$229,801, amortization of $16,678 and services settled through share issuance
of $50,449. The services settled through share issuance were primarily
related to development of call center infrastructure. Prepaid expenses
increased by $11,000 as prepaid rent was part of the services settled through
share issuance. Accounts payable increased by $34,387 primarily related to
accounting and legal fees. Advances from shareholder decreased by $39,026
representing repayment of a shareholder loan.
The Company has continued to invest in developing its communications center.
Purchase of capital assets for the nine months ended April 30, 1998 totaled
$165,414 comprised mostly of telephone and computer equipment and software.
The Company is in the process of seeking long term debt financing using its
wholly owned assets of the communications center as collateral under a
lease/buy-back program. If favorable terms can be obtained, the proceeds, not
expected to exceed $100,000, will be used to purchase new equipment and for
working capital. As the call center approaches profitability, management
expects to able to fund future capital asset purchases through cash flow and
equity financing. The Company has no commitment to purchase capital assets
for continuing operations of the call center.
Cash provided by financing activities was $221,267 representing the sale of
share subscriptions.
For the three months ending April 30, 1998 operations generated a positive
cash flow of $13,532 comprised of net income of $9,324, a collection of $8,878
of accounts receivable, a decrease in inventory of $7,750 offset by a
reduction of accounts payable by $14,543 and repayments to a shareholder of
$7,397. The company continued to invest in capital assets using $21,604 in
investing activities primarily for call center infrastructure.
(c) Results of Operations
For the three months ending April 30, 1998, the Company produced a net profit
of $9,324 and now has a net loss for the nine months ending April 30, 1998, of
$229,801. Sales for the quarter ending April 30, 1998 were $155,635
contributing to total revenue of $863,244 for the nine month period ending
April 30, 1998. Sales decreased 38.9% to $844,882 for the nine months ended
April 30, 1998 compared to $1,382,526 for the nine months ended April 30,
1997. This was primarily due to the continuing impact of retail prices having
dropped by an average of 50% during 1997 coupled with the discontinued sale of
a large portion of the product line in conjunction with a supreme court
ruling. Advertising and marketing expense decreased $6,175 to $8,123 for the
nine months ending April 30, 1998 compared to $14,298 for the nine months
ended April 30, 1997. This was primarily due to decreased advertising for the
product lines prohibited in the recent supreme court ruling. Amortization
increased by $13,345 to $16,678 for the nine months ending April 30, 1998
compared to $3,333 for the nine months ended April 30, 1997. This was
primarily due the depreciation of a larger capital asset base in the call
center. Bad debt expense increased by $44,368 to $50,495 for the nine months
ending April 30, 1998 compared to $6,127 for the nine months ended April 30,
1997. This was related to a receivable from the call center ($35,000) now
deemed to be unrecoverable and further write-offs of satellite programming
receivables (15,495).
Professional fees increased by $67,023 to $90,746 for the nine months ending
April 30, 1998 compared to $23,723 for the nine months ended April 30, 1997.
This was primarily related to legal and accounting expenses associated with
completing recent S.E.C. filings. Travel expense increased by $12,064 to
$26,453 for the nine months ending April 30, 1998 compared to $14,389 for the
nine months ended April 30, 1997. This increase in primarily attributable to
travel to and from the call center by officers and directors who do not live
in Nanaimo. Wages and benefits increased by $113,201 to $200,767 for the nine
months ending April 30, 1998 compared to $87,566 for the nine months ended
April 30, 1997. This was primarily due to increased staffing for the call
center.
While the Company continues to invest in its call center infrastructure and
add strength to its existing database, the Company has been able to reach a
break even stage of operations during the third quarter. Net income for the
three months ending April 30, 1998 was $9,324 representing a decrease of
$90,601 from the same period last year. The decrease in profit was mainly
attributable to a decrease in sales.
Due to the decreased prices and margins currently available from the sales of
satellite hardware and programming services, management has decided to suspend
sales of these products pending a significant change in the marketplace. This
is the main cause behind the 64.6% decrease in sales for the three months
ended April 30, 1998, $149,419, compared to $421,648 for the three months
ended April 30, 1997. Cost of sales also decreased significantly resulting in
only a 31.6% decrease in gross margin which fell to $136,860 (91,6% of sales)
for the three months ended April 30, 1998 compared to $199,396 (47.3% of
sales) for the three months ended April 30, 1997. General and administrative
expenses increased in the quarter, mainly due to an increase in wages and
benefits of $25,555 as a result of increased call center staff.
Management intends to focus its strengths in entertainment sales and
telemarketing in conjunction with the expanded reach brought by the newly
developed communications center to sell other entertainment products. The
Company is currently developing an Internet web site which will focus on the
sale of music CD and videos. The Company will continue to use its existing
communications infrastructure and marketing expertise in the sale of these new
product lines. Due to the suspension of satellite sales, management expects a
significant drop in revenues pending the completion of development of the web
site.

All amounts as of April 30, 1998 and for the nine (in US dollars)
months ended April 30, 1998 and 1997 are unaudited.
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Global Media Corp. (the "company") was incorporated on April 8, 1997 in the
State of Nevada and is engaged in providing internet-integrated call center
services from its location in Nanaimo, Canada, and marketing of direct to home
satellite hardware and programming services to both commercial and private
individuals primarily in Western Canada. The Company commenced its internet-
integrated call center operation in September of 1997.
On May 20, 1997 the Company issued 8,000,000 common shares and paid $100,000
in cash for all of the outstanding shares of Westcoast Wireless Cable Ltd.
("Westcoast Wireless"), a company which markets direct to home satellite
hardware and programming services.
Westcoast Wireless is contracted as an agent for the sales of certain
satellite hardware and programming services, therefore the majority of the
purchases are sourced from a single supplier.
These financial statements reflect the continuity of interests of the former
shareholder of Westcoast Wireless, due to the continuation of common control,
and are prepared on the following basis:
In the consolidated balance sheet at July 31, 1996 the assets, liabilities and
retained earnings of the Company represent the assets, liabilities and
retained earnings of Westcoast Wireless at that date.
The consolidated statements of income (loss), retained earnings (deficit), and
cash flows for the years ended July 31, 1995 and 1996 and for the period from
August 1, 1996 to May 20, 1997 (included in the results for the year ended
July 31, 1997) as well as the unaudited nine month period ended April 30, 1997
represent the results of operations and changes in financial position of
Westcoast Wireless during that period.
References to "the Company" in these financial statements include Westcoast
Wireless (for events occurring prior to May 20, 1997).
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
These interim financial statements include all adjustments which in the
opinion of management are necessary in order to ensure the financial
statements are not misleading.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
(a) Global Media entered into a commercial lease for office space effective
October 1, 1997, and will pay a total of $31,972 per year for the next five
years ending September 30, 2002.
(b) Following a decision by the Federal Court of Appeal of Canada in November
1997, with respect to the sale of U.S. satellite and programming services in
Canada, the management of Westcoast Wireless decided to withdraw from this
business, and to terminate its existing warranty agreements for such
equipment. It is management's opinion that fulfillment of the warranty
agreements would involve the Company transacting in business contrary to the
Federal Court ruling, and that any liability resulting for this decision would
not have a significant adverse effect on the financial position of the
Company.
In accordance with the requirements of the Exchange Act, the registrant
caused
this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
authorized.

RE: Edgar Submission of Global Media Corp. Form 10QSB-A
Dear Mr. Barone:
Submitted with this letter in appropriate Edgar format is the Global
Media Corporation Form 10-QSB-A for the period ended April 30, 1998, and a new
Exhibit 20. On July 31, 1998, Global Media Corp. Transmitted this same Form
10-QSB-A, but inadvertently included in that transmission a draft version of
Item 2; Management's Discussion and Analysis. The transmission submitted on
this date deletes language from the draft of Item 2, Management's discussion
and Analysis and replaces it with the final, approved language contained
herein.
We apologize for this oversight and any resulting confusion. Should
there be any question regarding this re-submission, please do not hesitate to
phone or write.
Sincerely,
CAIRNS, DWORKIN & CHAMBERS
