ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

         In the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 29, 1999 (the "Form
8-K") the Registrant reported that, pursuant to a Merger Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization ("Agreement") effective as of June 1, 1999 among the Registrant,
Cyber-Tech, Inc. ("Cyber-Tech") and the shareholders of Cyber-Tech, the
Registrant acquired all of the capital stock of Cyber-Tech. The merger
consideration paid in the Cyber-Tech Transaction consisted of $3,315,000 in cash
and 257,000 shares of Registrant's Common Stock (subject to a final purchase
price adjustment pursuant to Section 2.3(c) of the Agreement). The amount of
merger consideration was determined by arms-length negotiations among the
parties. In addition, in connection with the merger, Mediconsult.com (US), Ltd.,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant, entered into employment,
consulting, and non-competition agreements with the two former shareholders of
Cyber-Tech, and one key employee of Cyber-Tech. The Registrant and the
shareholders of Cyber-Tech also entered into an Escrow Agreement with respect to
certain of the shares of the Registrant's Common Stock issued to the former
Cyber-Tech shareholders.

         Cyber-Tech has developed and provides high quality content and tools
focused on heart disease and related areas that have attracted a large and
growing number of visitors to the www.heartinfo.com Web site.

         The Registrant funded the cash portion of the merger consideration,
other cash payments and the fees and expenses associated with the Cyber-Tech
Transaction through cash on hand.

         The Form 8-K did not include the Condensed Consolidated Financial Data
required by Item 7(a) or the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Data
required by Item 7(b). This Form 8-K/A amends Item 7 of the Form 8-K by
including such financial information.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF CYBER-TECH, INC.

In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheets and the related statements of
earnings and retained earnings and of cash flows present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of CYBER-TECH INC. as of December 31, 1998 and
1997, and the results of its operations for the years then ended and its cash
flows for the year ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards in the United States of America which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Notes to Financial Statements
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------






1.    ORGANIZATION

      Cyber-Tech Inc. (the "Company") was formed as a corporation in Hobokin New
      Jersey on July 27, 1988, for the purpose of computer consulting and
      programming services. In 1996, the Company set up an internet site,
      www.heartinfo.com, which was dedicated to education on cardiovascular
      issues.

2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      These financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting
      principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The
      following is a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies:

          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 reported amounts of assets and
          liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
          date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
          and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
          from those estimates.

          REVENUE RECOGNITION
          The Company's revenues are primarily derived from educational grants,
          sponsorship of internet content and commissioned special projects such
          as the development and implementation of cardiovascular risk
          assessment tools for pharmaceutical companies. Such revenues are
          recognized over the period that the development work is performed.

          PRODUCT AND CONTENT DEVELOPMENT COSTS
          The cost of development and enhancement of the technology used in the
          Company's Web site are expensed as incurred.

          CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
          Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
          significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash,
          cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. Substantially all of the
          Company's cash, cash equivalents, are managed by one individual.
          Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from
          revenues earned from customers primarily located in the United States.

          COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
          In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
          SFAS 130, "REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME." SFAS 130 establishes
          standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components in a
          financial statement. Comprehensive income as defined includes all
          changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources.
          The disclosure prescribed by SFAS 130 must be made for the Company's
          year ended December 31, 1998. For the years presented, the Company's
          comprehensive income was equal to net income.

          SEGMENTS
          Additionally in June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS 131, "DISCLOSURES
          ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION." This
          statement establishes standards for the way companies report
          information about operating segments in annual financial statements.
          It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products
          and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The disclosures
          prescribed by SFAS 131 will be effective for the year ending December
          31, 1998 consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that
          it does not operate in more than one segment.

          FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
          SFAS 107 "DISCLOSURE ABOUT THE FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS",
          requires disclosure about the fair value of certain financial
          instruments. The Company's financial instruments, including cash,
          accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and
          contributed capital are carried at cost which approximates their fair
          value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

          INCOME TAXES
          The company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on
          differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets
          and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected
          to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. The
          Company provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax
          asset, consisting primarily of net operating loss carryforwards,
          because of uncertainty regarding its realizability.

3.    LOANS FROM SHAREHOLDER

      The Company had loans from a shareholder of $101,294 outstanding at the
      December 31, 1998. These loans had an interest rate of 10% per annum.
      During 1998, $90,251 of these loans were converted to common stock and the
      remaining $11,043 were repaid in cash.

4.    CAPITAL STOCK

      Capital stock comprises:
