1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, we do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (consisting of
normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation.
Operating results for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1996
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended June 30, 1997. For further information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's registration
statement on Form SB-2 for the year ended June 30, 1996, on file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a
maturity of less than three months to be cash equivalents. The Company's
short-term investments may consist of certificates of deposit, banker's
acceptances and repurchase agreements of major banks and institutions,
obligations of the Treasury and U.S. Government agencies, and commercial paper,
having maturities of less than three months, or money market mutual funds
invested in the foregoing described investments. These securities are recorded
at cost, which approximates fair value.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Through December 31, 1996, the Company expensed its product
development costs as research and development costs. It will continue to
expense such costs until such time as the economic realizability of the
Company's software is established.
2. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT)
COMMON STOCK
In August 1996, the Company sold in a public offering 1,322,500 Units, each
Unit consisting of two shares of Common Stock and one Redeemable Warrant, which
generated net proceeds of approximately $6.6 million to the Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATION
This Report contains, in addition to historical information,
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties and represent
management's judgement as of the date of this Form 10-QSB. The Company's
actual results could differ significantly from the results discussed in the
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences include those discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in the
Company's Prospectus, dated August 16, 1996, issued in conjunction with the
Company's registration statement on Form SB-2, on file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update
these forward-looking statements.
OVERVIEW
The Company is a development stage company engaged in the development
and marketing of the CD-MAX and NET-MAX technologies to publishers of digitally
stored information. The Company commenced operations in July 1993. Prior
thereto, the principals of the Company were involved in the development of the
company's technology, development of the business plan and arrangement for the
initial capitalization of the Company.
From July 1, 1993 (inception) through December 31, 1996, the Company
recognized revenues from operations of $43,398 and as of December 31, 1996 had
an accumulated deficit of $4,863,858. The Company has continued to operate at
a loss since inception and expects to incur significant additional operating
losses until the Company generates significant revenues from operations which
are sufficient to cover its monthly operating expenses.
The Company's strategy is to achieve market acceptance of the CD-MAX
and NET-MAX Systems with publishers of professional, general corporate, library
and educational materials who use CD-ROMs and the Internet as the method of
information distribution. The Company has entered into agreements with seven
information publishers pursuant to which it will receive product development,
transaction and licensing fees (which represent a percentage of the revenue
billed by the Company on behalf of the publisher), provided that the publishers
are successful in marketing their information. The first commercial test of
the CD-MAX System began in August 1995, and to date, a total of $43,398 in
revenues have been generated from all uses of the system.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER
31, 1995
REVENUES
For the three months ended December 31, 1996, the Company recognized
revenues of $15,000 as license fee income pursuant to its agreements with
publishers. For the three months ending December 31, 1995, the Company
recognized revenues of $3,500 from license fees pursuant to its agreements with
publishers. These revenues consisted primarily of software development and
licensing fees.
OPERATING EXPENSES
The Company's operating expenses were $622,169 for the three months ended
December 31, 1996, compared to $425,774 for the three months ended December 31,
1995. This increase of $196,395 or 46% was attributable primarily to the
following factors:
6
<PAGE> 8
Sales and Marketing. Selling expenses were $119,231 for the three
months ended December 31, 1996, compared to $47,971 for the three months ended
December 31, 1995. This increase of $71,260 or 149% was attributable primarily
to increased expenses for two additional marketing professionals and increased
advertising costs.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses were
$224,126 for the three months ended December 31, 1996, compared to $257,347 for
the three months ended December 31, 1995. This decrease of $33,221 or 13% was
primarily due to private placement and legal fees which were $39,659 in 1995
and $4,769 in 1996.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses were
$262,966 for the three months ended December 31, 1996, compared to $117,865 for
the three months ended December 31, 1995. This increase of $145,101 or 123%
was primarily attributed to the increase of eight additional personnel in
software development and operations. This increase in staff also resulted in a
proportionate increase of equipment and related expenses.
Due to the above, the Company had a net loss of $550,055 for the three
months ended December 31, 1996, compared to a net loss of $419,320 for the
three months ended December 31, 1995.
SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED WITH SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31,
1996
REVENUES
For the six months ended December 31, 1996, the Company recognized
revenues of $27,504 as license fee income pursuant to its agreements with
publishers. For the six months ending December 31, 1995, the Company
recognized revenues of $8,500 from license fees pursuant to its agreements with
publishers. These revenues consisted primarily of software development and
licensing fees.
OPERATING EXPENSES
The Company's operating expenses were $1,216,583 for the six months ended
December 31, 1996, compared to $746,327 for the six months ended December 31,
1995. This increase of $470,256 or 63% was attributable primarily to the
following factors:
Sales and Marketing. Selling expenses were $213,224 for the six months
ended December 31, 1996, compared to $92,938 for the six months ended December
31, 1995. This increase of $120,286 or 129% was attributable primarily to
increased expenses for an additional marketing professional and other expenses
associated with the design and production of new marketing literature.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses were $498,323
for the six months ended December 31, 1996, compared to $431,355 for the six
months ended December 31, 1995. This increase of $66,968 or 16% was primarily
due to a $69,955 increase due to debt issuance amortization associated with a
private placement financing.

<PAGE> 9
Research and Development. Research and development expenses were
$483,915 for the six months ended December 31, 1996, compared to $217,926 for
the six months ending December 31, 1995. This increase of $265,989 or 122% was
primarily attributed to the increase of eight additional personnel in software
development and operations. This increase in staff also resulted in a
proportionate increase of equipment and related expenses.
Due to the above, the Company had a net loss of $1,136,115 for the six months
ended December 31, 1996, compared to a net loss of $728,721 for the six months
ended December 31, 1995.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has experienced net losses from operations since its
inception and at December 31, 1996 had an accumulated deficit of $4,863,858.
Other than routine trade payables, at December 31, 1996 the Company's primary
liabilities are accrued expenses of $118,632 which represents back salary due
to management, and fringe benefit accruals of $52,404.
The Company has financed its operations primarily through funds
obtained from the sale of Common Stock. On August 16, 1996 the Company
completed a Public Offering of 1,322,500 Units, each unit consisting of two
shares of Common Stock and one Redeemable Warrant. The gross proceeds to the
Company were approximately $8.1 million; as of December 31, 1996, $1,454,726 of
the total offering proceeds were used to pay off private placement notes
payable and related party notes payable and related offering expenses. The net
proceeds from this offering will be used to support continuing operations and
research and development. As of December 31, 1996 an additional $900,000 of
the proceeds have been used to purchase short-term certificates of deposit.
The Company expects the proceeds from the offering to be sufficient to fund its
operations for at least twelve months.
The Company has no material commitments other than its facility,
equipment leases, and employment agreements with four of its senior executives
which call for annual salaries of approximately $64,000 to $89,500 per year per
individual.
CERTAIN BUSINESS RISKS
There can be no assurance that the Company's services will be accepted
by the marketplace in a successful and timely manner; that the Company will
achieve positive cashflow to fund its operations prior to exhausting its
capital resources; or that the Company will be able to raise additional
capital, should it be required.
A description of these and other risks relating to the Company's
business is set forth under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Company's
Prospectus, dated August 16, 1996, issued in conjunction with the Company's
registration statement on Form SB-2, on file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
