Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Pre-Cell
Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for a complete financial statement presentation.
In the opinion of management, such unaudited interim information reflects all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to
present the Company's financial position and results of operations for the
periods presented. The results of operations and cash flows for interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal
year. The consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2000 was derived from the
audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but does not include
all the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting
principles. These consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as
presented in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K. The report of our
independent certified public accountants on the Company's 2000 financial
statements contained an explanatory paragraph emphasizing that there were
substantial doubts about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Note 2 - Acquisitions
Teleconex
On August 1, 2000, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Pre-Cell Solutions,
Inc. a Florida corporation ("PCF"), entered into an agreement to acquire all of
the outstanding shares of Teleconex, Inc. ("Teleconex"), a prepaid local
exchange service company in Pensacola, Florida, for 683,333 shares of Pre-Cell
common stock plus cash of $160,000. Additionally, on August 1, 2000 PCF entered
into an agreement to manage and control all the operations of Teleconex during
the transition period for the customer accounts to be switched from Teleconex to
PCF. The final closing of the transaction is subject only to the approval of the
Public Utility Commissions Rules and Regulations, which approval is considered
probable and is expected to be finalized within the Company's third fiscal
quarter ending January 31, 2001. With this effective level of control management
has consolidated the operations of Teleconex from August 1, 2000 forward.
The acquisition described above was accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting and accordingly, the operating results have been included in the
Company's consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition. The
costs of the acquisitions have been allocated on the basis of the estimated fair
market values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The excess of the
purchase prices over the fair values of the net assets acquired was
approximately $1,857,000 and has been recorded as goodwill, which is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Accordingly, the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations do not include any revenues or expenses
related to these acquisitions prior to the closing date.
The Teleconex acquisition is not considered significant and, accordingly, pro
forma results of operations are not presented.
The transaction was recorded as follows:
Contingent stock consideration to be issued in connection with acquistion............ 1,496,499
Due to owners........................................................................ 160,000
-----------
Total consideration to be issued............................................... 1,656,499
Less fair value of assets acquired................................................... (212,202)
Liabilities assumed.................................................................. 412,662
-----------
Excess cost of net assets acquired................................................... 1,856,959
===========
During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2000, the Company acquired 100% of the
outstanding stock of two entities.
US Intellicom, Inc.
On April 4, 2000 (the "Closing Date"), Pre-Cell Solutions, Inc. ("Pre-Cell"),
USI Merger Corp., a Georgia corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pre-Cell
("USI Merger Subsidiary"), US/Intellicom, Inc., a Georgia corporation ("USI")
and Ronald I. Kindland and each of the other stockholders of USI ("USI
Stockholders") executed a Merger
Page 7
And Reorganization Agreement ("USI Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which USI
merged ("USI Merger") with and into USI Merger Corp.
In connection with the USI Merger, Pre-Cell issued an aggregate of 11,440,000
shares of Pre-Cell common stock to the stockholders of USI determined on the
basis of a negotiated value of the business and proprietary technology developed
by USI and the market value of Pre-Cell's common stock. Under the terms of the
agreement, the holders of USI common stock were issued 8.8 shares of Pre-Cell
common stock in exchange for each share of USI common stock. In connection with
the acquisition and as a condition of closing, Pre-Cell established an option
pool in the aggregate of 2,133,330 shares of common stock whereby certain
stockholders of USI that had guaranteed USI's line of credit shall, until
December 31, 2000, have the right to acquire Pre-Cell common stock. The line of
credit was paid and closed during the quarter ended October 31, 2000, and the
guarantees of certain shareholders were released. Concurrent with the release of
the guarantees these shareholders exercised their option to acquire 2,133,330
additional shares of the Company's common stock.
As these options are exercised the shareholder guarantees are released and the
amount available under the USI line of credit is reduced by a corresponding
amount. Additionally, all outstanding options to purchase USI shares became
fully vested and were automatically converted into options to purchase Pre-Cell
shares on a basis of 8.8 Pre-cell shares for each USI share entitled to be
purchased under the USI options, at the per share price equal to the quotient of
(i) the price contained in the USI options, divided by (ii) 8.8.
Pre-Paid Solutions
On the Closing Date, Pre-Cell, Pre-Paid Acquisition Corp., a Florida corporation
and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pre-Cell ("Pre-Paid Merger Subsidiary"), Pre-Paid
Solutions, Inc., a Florida corporation ("Pre-Paid") and Thomas E. Biddix and
each of the other stockholders of Pre-Paid ("Pre-Paid Stockholders") executed a
Merger And Reorganization Agreement ("Pre-Paid Merger Agreement"), pursuant to
which Pre-Paid was merged ("Pre-Paid Merger") with and into Pre-Paid Acquisition
Corp.
In connection with the Pre-Paid Merger, Pre-Cell issued an aggregate of
20,219,127 shares of Pre-cell common stock to the stockholders of Pre-Paid
determined on the basis of a negotiated value of the business and certain
contracts of Pre-Paid and the market value of Pre-Cell's common stock. Under the
terms of the agreement, the holders of Prepaid common stock were issued 2.81915
shares of Pre-Cell common stock in exchange for each share of Prepaid common
stock. Additionally, all outstanding options and warrants to purchase Pre-Paid
shares became fully vested and were automatically converted into options and
warrants to purchase Pre-Cell shares on a basis of 2.81915 Pre-Cell shares for
each Pre-Paid share entitled to be purchased under the Pre-Paid options, at the
per share price equal to the quotient of (i) the price contained in the Pre-Paid
options and warrants, divided by (ii) 2.81915.
The acquisitions described above were accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting and accordingly, the operating results have been included in the
Company's consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition. The
costs of the acquisitions have been allocated on the basis of the estimated fair
market values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The excess of the
purchase prices over the fair values of the net assets acquired was
approximately $16,985,000 and has been recorded as goodwill, which is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Accordingly, the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations do not include any revenues or expenses
related to these acquisitions prior to the closing date.
Following are the Company's unaudited pro forma results for the six months ended
October 31, 1999 and the year ended April 30, 2000 assuming the acquisitions of
US Intellicom and Pre-paid Solutions occurred on May 1, 1999:
Six months ended Year ended

--------------- --------------
Net revenues.............................................. $ 2,204,314 $ 4,417,218

Basic and diluted net loss per common share......... (.02) (.10)
Weighted average outstanding shares......................... 39,071,234 39,148,838
The pro forma consolidated results of operations include adjustments to give
effect to amortization of goodwill. The unaudited pro forma information is not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had
the purchase been made at the beginning of the periods presented or the future
results of the combined operations.
Page 8
Subsequent event
In addition, the Company has entered into a non-binding letter of intent to
acquire Transnational Communications Inc. ("TNT") a competitive local exchange
company located in San Antonio, Texas. Consummation of the acquisition remains
subject to, among other things, regulatory approval, due diligence, execution of
a definitive agreement and the approval by the parties' board of directors. On
December 1, 2000 this acquisition was concluded whereby the Company's wholly
owned subsidiary, Pre-Cell Solutions, Inc. a Florida corporation ("PCF"),
entered into an agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares of TNT, Inc.,
for 1,000,000 shares of Pre-Cell common stock. Additionally, on August 1, 2000
PCF entered into an agreement to manage and control all the operations of TNT
during the transition period for the customer accounts to be switched from TNT
to PCF. The final closing of the transaction is subject only to the approval of
the Public Utility Commissions Rules and Regulations, which approval is expected
to be finalized within the Company's third fiscal quarter ending January 31,
2001.
Note 3 - Line of credit
The Company had a line-of-credit available under which it could borrow up to
$1,600,000 at an interest rate of 2.30% over the lender's commercial paper rate.
The line was paid and closed during the quarter ended October 31, 2000, and the
guarantees of certain shareholders were released. Concurrent with the release of
the guarantees these shareholders exercised their option to acquire 2,133,330
additional shares of the Company's common stock for cash proceeds of $1.6
million.
Note 4 - Accrued expenses
Accrued expenses consist of the following:
October 31, 2000 April 30, 2000
---------------- --------------
Accrued claim (see Note 5)...................... $ 380,000 $ 380,000
Accrued interest................................. 2,618 101,004
Accrued compensation........................... 100,517 108,052
Accrued other................................. 226,679 12,774
---------- -----------
$ 709,814 $ 601,830
========= =========
Note 5 - Commitments and contingencies
Employment agreements
The Company has employment agreements with its executive officers. The
agreements cover a three-year period beginning April 1, 2000 and are terminable
for cause by either party. They also include provisions for discretionary
bonuses and in one instance an incentive bonus for product development. Certain
of the agreements provide for the grant of a total of 1,606,000 shares of the
Company's stock. The shares vest 20% on October 1, 2000, 30% on January 1, 2001
with the remaining 50% on April 1, 2001. The agreements include a covenant
against competition with the Company and prohibit divulgence of confidential
information. In October 2000 one of these agreements including 856,000 granted
shares of the Company's common stock was amended to provide that the initial
vesting periods were extended to February 2001. There was no compensation
expense related to this modification. The Company has recognized compensation
expense of $187,369 during the six months ended October 31, 2000 as a result of
the stock grants. The remaining unvested compensation expense of $588,864 as a
result of the stock grant will be recognized in fiscal 2001 as it becomes fully
vested.
Letters of credit
The Company is contingently liable under the terms of various letters of credit
of up to $466,000 issued to secure credit from certain of its suppliers of
cellular phone airtime. The letter of credit is secured by a $466,000
certificate of deposit. As of November 30, 2000 there were no claims against any
of the letters of credit.
Litigation
On September 21, 1999, the two subsidiaries acquired during April 2000 were
named as defendants in two lawsuits alleging patent infringement arising out of
having made, used, offered for sale and/or sold in the United States products
which infringe one or more claims of Patent No. 5,631,947 and Patent No.
5,577,100. The claims for
Page 9
monetary damages are undisclosed. While any litigation
or investigation has an element of uncertainty, in the opinion of management and
legal counsel, there is no reasonable probability at present of any substantial
liabilities arising out of this matter.
An action was brought against US Intellicom, Inc. (USI), a subsidiary of the
Company, by RiverHawk Capital Resources, Inc., an affiliate of Riverhawk
Holdings, Inc. (RiverHawk) before the American Arbitration Association, claiming
that it is entitled to a "success" fee in connection with a letter agreement
between the parties. On June 9, 2000 the Arbitrator found that RiverHawk was
entitled to a success fee of $374,517, plus one-half of the costs and expenses
of arbitration. The Company has accrued $380,000 at April 30, 2000 and October
31, 2000 and adjusted the purchase price of the USI acquisition discussed in
Note 1. However, USI has filed a Motion to Vacate the Decision of the
Arbitrator. If this motion is denied the Company intends to appeal.
From time-to-time, we are involved in other legal proceedings incidental to the
conduct of our business. The Company believes that this other litigation,
individually or in the aggregate, to which it is currently a party is not likely
to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results
of operations, or cash flows.
Note 6 - Income taxes
There was no income tax expense/benefit for the Company for the three and six
months ended October 31, 2000.
The Company maintains a valuation allowance to state its deferred tax assets at
an estimated net realizable value, this balance at October 31, 2000 was zero due
to the uncertainty related to realization of these assets through future taxable
income. The recognition of any future tax benefits resulting from the net
operating loss carryforwards acquired will reduce goodwill.
Item No. 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis of the Company's consolidated financial
position and consolidated results of operations should be read in conjunction
with the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes
thereto included in Item 1.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains forward-looking statements. Additional written or oral
forward-looking statements may be made by the Company from time to time in
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise. Such
forward-looking statements are within the meaning of the term in Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Forward-looking statements may include, but not be limited to, projections of
revenues, income, or loss, estimates of capital expenditures, plans for future
operations, products or services, and financing needs or plans, as well as
assumptions relating to the foregoing. The words "believe," "expect,"
"anticipate," "estimate," "project," and similar expressions identify forward
looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made.
Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties,
some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. Future events and actual
results could differ materially from that set forth in, contemplated by, or
underlying the forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation
to publicly update or revise any forward looking statements, whether as a result
of new information, future events, or otherwise.
The following disclosures, as well as other statements in this Report on Form
10-Q, and in the notes to the Company's condensed consolidated financial
statements, describe factors, among others, that could contribute to or cause
such differences, or that could affect the Company's stock price.
Overview
Since 1995, we were inactive but structured to take advantage of business
opportunities which management believed would be in the best interest of our
shareholders. In December 1998, we acquired Pre-Cell Solutions (a Florida
corporation) through the issuance of 32,156,000 shares of our common stock and
we changed our name to Pre-Cell Solutions, Inc. In April 2000, we acquired
Pre-Paid Solutions and US Intellicom through the issuance of 31,659,127 shares
of our common stock. We currently offer prepaid wireless, long distance and
local telecommunication products and services through distributors and resellers
as well as licensing prepaid wireless technology to other wireless resellers.

$1,705,657 from $53,427 for the three months ended October 31, 1999. Of this
increase $876,701 resulted from an increase in revenues of our Prepaid Dialtone
business, which included $867,626 in revenues from the newly acquired Teleconex
business. Of the remaining $828,956 of the increase, $182,961 resulted from the

Direct costs for the three months ended October 31, 2000 were $959,138 up
$901,764 from $57,374 for the three months ended October 31, 1999. Of this
increase, $692,707 resulted from an increase of our Direct Dialtone business.
The operations of Pre-Paid Solutions accounted for $195,991 of the increase and
the operations of US Intellicom accounted for $13,066 of the increase.
Other operating expenses increased $2,185,031 from $132,132 in the three months
ended October 31, 1999 to $2,317,163 in the three months ended October 31, 2000.
The operations of US Intellicom accounted for $948,356 of the increase, the
operations of Teleconex accounted for $186,637 of the increase and $1,050,038
resulted from the operations of Pre-Paid Solutions and increases in corporate
overhead as we emerged from an inactive entity and continued to establish the
infrastructure necessary to accomplish our strategic business plans.
The amortization of goodwill was $254,565 for the quarter ended October 31, 2000
as compared to $8,500 for the quarter ended October 31, 1999. This increase was
the result of an increase in goodwill of approximately $16,985,000 associated
with the acquisitions of Pre-Paid Solutions and US Intellicom that occurred in
April 2000 and approximately $1,857,000 associated with the acquisition of
Teleconex effective August 1, 2000. This increase reflects three months of
amortization in the current period, which will be in excess of $1,018,000
annually.
There was no income tax expense/benefit for the Company for the three months
ended October 31, 2000 and 1999.
The Company maintains a valuation allowance to state its deferred tax assets at
an estimated net realizable value, this balance at October 31, 2000 was zero due
to the uncertainty related to realization of these assets through future taxable
income. The recognition of any future tax benefits resulting from the net
operating loss carryforwards acquired will reduce goodwill.
Net loss for the three months ended October 31, 2000 was $1,768,753 as compared
to a loss of $144,579 for the three months ended October 31, 1999. This increase
in net loss of $1,624,174 is primarily the result of the combined effects of the
increased other operating expenses of $2,185,163 and increased goodwill
amortization of $246,065 offset by approximately $803,893 in increased gross
profit margins on revenues.
Six months ended October 31, 2000 compared to six months ended October 31, 1999
Revenues for the six months ended October 31, 2000 were $2,413,061 up $2,342,062
from $70,999 for the six months ended October 31, 1999. Of this increase
$833,076 resulted from an increase in revenues of our Prepaid Dialtone business,
which included $867,626 in revenues from the newly acquired Teleconex business,
offset by a reduction of $34,550 from the Company's historical Dialtone
subscriber base. Of the remaining $1,508,986 of the increase, $504,090 resulted
from the operations of Pre-Paid Solutions, Inc. and $1,004,896 resulted from the
operations of US Intellicom, Inc., both of which were acquired in April 2000.
Direct costs for the six months ended October 31, 2000 were $1,210,303 up
$1,138,606 from $71,697 for the six months ended October 31, 1999. Of this
increase, $632,528 resulted from an increase of our Direct Dialtone business.
The operations of Pre-Paid Solutions accounted for $475,027 of the increase and
the operations of US Intellicom accounted for $31,050 of the increase.
Other operating expenses increased $3,506,750 from $153,784 in the six months
ended October 31, 1999 to $3,660,534 in the six months ended October 31, 2000.
The operations of US Intellicom accounted for $1,515,091 of the increase, the
operations of Teleconex accounted for $186,637 of the increase and $1,805,022
resulted from the operations of Pre-Paid Solutions and increases in corporate
overhead as we emerged from an inactive entity and continued to establish the
infrastructure necessary to accomplish our strategic business plans.
The amortization of goodwill was $487,502 for the six months ended October 31,
2000 as compared to $17,000 for the six months ended October 31, 1999. This
increase was the result of an increase in goodwill of approximately $16,985,000
associated with the acquisitions of Pre-Paid Solutions and US Intellicom that
occurred in April 2000
Page 11
and approximately $1,857,000 associated with the
acquisition of Teleconex effective August 1, 2000. This increase reflects six
months of amortization in the current period, which will be in excess of
$1,018,000 annually.
There was no income tax expense/benefit for the Company for the six months ended
October 31, 2000 and 1999.
The Company maintains a valuation allowance to state its deferred tax assets at
an estimated net realizable value, this balance at October 31, 2000 was zero due
to the uncertainty related to realization of these assets through future taxable
income. The recognition of any future tax benefits resulting from the net

Net loss for the six months ended October 31, 2000 was $2,995,883 as compared to
a loss of $171,482 for the six months ended October 31, 1999. This increase in
net loss of $2,824,401 is primarily the result of the combined effects of the
increased other operating expenses of $3,506,750 and increased goodwill
amortization of $470,502 offset by $1,203,457 in increased gross profit margins
on revenues.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the six months ended October 31, 2000, net cash used in operating activities
was $1,962,623. This was mainly due to the operating loss for the period. As of
October 31, 2000, we had cash of $99,016 and a net working capital deficit of
$1,834,930.
Net cash provided from financing activities for the six months ended October 31,
2000 was $1,620,323. The financing of operating losses was provided by
approximately $1,626,320 from the sale of our common stock.
Our ability to meet our future obligations in relation to the orderly payment of
our recurring, general and administrative expenses on a current basis is
dependent on our ability to expand our current customer base, secure and develop
new business opportunities and raise additional capital. We are unable to
predict how long it may be able to survive without a significant infusion of
capital from outside sources and we cannot predict whether such capital
infusion, if available, will be on terms and conditions favorable to us.
The Company's audited financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2000
were prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of
assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of
business. However, absent our ability to execute our plans to expand our current
customer base, secure and develop new business opportunities and raise
additional capital, we may be unable to continue as a going concern, which could
significantly impact the liquidation or settlement value of our assets and
liabilities.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
On May 6, 1999 Telemac Cellular Corporation filed suit against US Intellicom,
Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary, in the Northern District of California.
Telemac Cellular alleges patent infringement arising out of US Intellicom's use
of its prepaid cellular software products. Telemac is seeking, among other
relief, an undetermined amount of damages. As there are numerous disputed facts
and because Telemac has yet to quantify its claim, we cannot provide a range of
potential loss.
On September 21, 1999, two of our subsidiaries were named as defendants in
lawsuits filed by Topp Telecom, Inc., alleging patent infringement arising out
of having made, used, offered for sale and/or sold in the United States products
which infringe one or more claims of Patent No. 5,613,947 and Patent No.
5,577,100. The claim for monetary damages are undisclosed. As this litigation is
in the early stages, and Topp Telecom has yet to quantify its claim, we cannot
provide a range of potential loss.
On March 7, 2000 RiverHawk Capital Resources instituted an action against US
Intellicom, Inc., in the Superior Court of Fulton County, Georgia. RiverHawk
Capital Resources alleged breach of contract against U.S. Intellicom seeking
damages in excess of $300,000 in connection with a "success fee", pursuant to
the letter agreement dated October 27, 1998 between RiverHawk Capital Resources
and US Intellicom, on account of the merger transaction among U.S. Intellicom,
Pre-Cell Solutions and USI Merger Corp. effective April 5, 2000. The complaint
was amended to allege that a "success fee" of $2.5 million was owed to RiverHawk
Resources. An arbitrator ruled on June 9, 2000 that US Intellicom pay to
RiverHawk $374,517 as the success fee, plus expenses for the arbitration
proceeding. On July 24, 2000 US Intellicom filed a Response to the claim and an
Application to Vacate the Award
Page 12
in Arbitration. In the event of the arbitrators
decision being upheld, we will be required to pay to RiverHawk $374,517.
From time-to-time, we are involved in other legal proceedings incidental to the
conduct of our business. We believe that this other litigation, individually or
in the aggregate, to which we are currently a party is not likely to have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of
operations.
Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Described below are the sales of securities by the Company during the six months
ended October 31, 2000 that were not registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"). On the issuance of these securities the
Company relied on the exemption from registration under the 1933 Act set forth
in Section 4(2) thereof, based on established criteria for effecting a private
offering, including the number of offerees for each transaction, access to
information regarding the Company, disclosure of information by the Company,
restrictions on resale of the securities offered, investment representations by
the purchasers, and the qualification of the offerees as "accredited investors."
In July 2000, the Company sold 88,890 shares of its common stock for $66,667 to
two private investors. Based on the knowledge, experience and economic strength
of these investors, the Company believes this transaction was exempt from
registration with the Commission under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of
1933.
In August and September 2000, the Company sold 2,044,440 shares of its common
stock for $1,533,333 to seventeen private investors. Based on the knowledge,
experience and economic strength of these investors, the Company believes this
transaction was exempt from registration with the Commission under Section 4(2)
of the Securities Act of 1933.
