considered by management.

Risks and Uncertainties

For the six months ended June 30, 2005 we incurred a net loss of $1,435,559
compared to a net loss of $1,812,568 for the same period in 2004. We expect to
continue to generate losses until our revenues increase. Our revenue and total
operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $187,621 and
$1,611,049 respectively, compared to revenue of $247,697 and total operating
expenses of $2,044,434 for the same period in 2004.

Year to year comparisons may not be indicative of future performance due to the
change in revenue sources and sporadic sales from our Media and IT divisions.

As of June 30, 2005, we had $652 in cash, which is insufficient to meet our
operational goals and business plan. We have required, and continue to require,
substantial capital to fund our business operations.

We have no commitments, agreements or understandings regarding additional
financing and we may be unable to obtain additional financing either on
satisfactory terms or at all. We expect to pursue additional financing through
debt or equity financing. If additional funds are raised or acquisitions are
made by issuing our equity securities there will be dilution to our existing
shareholders. We may also incur debt or assume substantial indebtedness. If we
are unable to obtain financing, such inability could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.


                                       7


There is no assurance we can increase our revenue sources and it is unlikely
that we can lower our expenses in our present mode of operations. We may never
earn a profit. If we continue to lose money over a protracted period of time we
may no longer be able to operate as a going concern.


Revenues

Revenues for the 6 months ended June 30, 2005 decreased to $187,621 from
$247,697 for the same period in 2004. Revenues for the 3 months period ended
March 31, 2005 decreased to $127,810 from $210,903 for the same period in 2004.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales decreased to $12,131 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from
$13,831 for the same period in 2004. The cost of sales decreased to $2,311 for
the 3 months period ended March 31, 2005 from $9,580 for the same period in
2004. The decrease in cost of sales is attributed to the decrease in revenue.

Total Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses decreased to $1,611,049 for the six months ended June
30, 2005 from $2,044,434 for the same period in 2004. The decrease is attributed
to the Company ceasing operations from its Kiosk locations. Total operating
expenses decreased to $1,069,773 for the 3 months period ended March 31, 2005
from $1,532,258 for the same period in 2004 for the reason as noted above.

Net Operating Loss

Net operating loss was $1,435,559 for the six months ended June 30, 2005
compared to a net operating loss of $1,812,568 for the same period in 2004. The
decrease in net operating loss is attributed to the Company ceasing its test
phase operations in Kiosk retail.

Material Changes in Financial Condition

Consolidated Balance Sheet

Current assets declined to $92,461 as of June 30, 2005, compared to $349,625 as
of Dec 31, 2004. The decrease in current assets is attributable to the Company
electing to close its Kiosk locations at the conclusion of the market viability
phase of operations. This cessation of operations allowed the Company to
consolidate retail inventory at its store location resulting in it not having to
purchase further inventory for the period. In addition, the Company divested
itself of it's Kiosk assets such as display stands and alike.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment declined to $163,490 as of June 30, 2005 as compared to
$233,811 on Dec 31, 2004. The decrease in property and equipment was primarily a
result of abandonment of assets due to the closed Gemstore RMU locations.


Liabilities

Our accounts payable and accrued expenses increased to $646,635 on June 30, 2005
compared to $427,120 for Dec 31, 2004. The increase in payables and accrued
expenses is related to the increase in operating costs.

Loan Payable to stockholders was $1,598,777 for June 30, 2005, an increase from
$1,064,423 on Dec 31, 2004. Winmax's operations are primarily being funded by
loans from our major shareholder and CEO. The increase in loan payable to stock
holder is related to the increase in operational costs.


Liquidity and Capital Resources as of June 30, 2005

Net cash provided by all activities (operational, investing and financing
cashflow) for the six months ending June 30, 2005 was $652 compared to $16,752
in all activities for the same period in 2004. Cash flow from operations
decreased to ($574,881) in the first six months of 2005 from $(1,350,474) in the
first six months of 2004.

We have experienced significant losses from our operations. For the six months
ended June 30, 2005, we incurred a comprehensive net loss of $881,960 and we
have a accumulated deficit of ($17,441,492). Our ability to continue operations
is contingent upon our ability to expand our Winmax Media and WinamxIS revenues,
increase sale from our retail divisions and to secure financing. Although we are
pursuing financing to expand our operations, there are no assurances that we
will be successful in obtaining such financing. Our failure to secure financing
and/or expand our operations may result in our not being able to continue
business.
