         UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial
statements of NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of
management, these condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature and which are necessary to
present fairly the consolidated financial position of NeoMedia as of June 30,
1999 and December 31, 1998, and the results of operations for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30,
1999 and 1998. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999
are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the
entire fiscal year. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated in preparation of the condensed consolidated financial
statements.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
 OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

     Through the six months ended June 30, 1999, a substantial part of
NeoMedia's revenue was derived from resales of software and technology
equipment. NeoMedia couples its proprietary software products with independent
vendor products it resells, enabling it to provide a complete "turn-key" service
for its customers. Currently, NeoMedia's revenue consists of (i) software
license fees, (ii) resales of software and technology equipment from independent
vendors and (iii) service fees, including consulting and post contract software
support.

     License fees for the six months ended June 30, 1999 increased 41.4% from
the six months ended June 30, 1998, and, as a percentage of total sales,
remained unchanged at 13.0% of total sales during those periods. NeoMedia's
strategy is to increase licenses of its proprietary Intelligent Documents(TM)
software as a percentage of total sales. NeoMedia has built and intends to
continue to build an infrastructure that assumes this strategy will succeed.
Therefore, failure to achieve this strategy could have a material adverse effect
on NeoMedia's business, financial condition and results of operations.

     NeoMedia's quarterly operating results have been subject to variation and
will continue to be subject to variation, depending upon factors, such as the
mix of business among NeoMedia's services and products, the cost of material,
labor and technology, particularly in connection with the delivery of business
services, the costs associated with initiating new contracts, the economic
condition of NeoMedia's target markets, and the cost of acquiring and
integrating new businesses.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AS COMPARED TO THE
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998

     NET SALES. Total net sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 were
$15.1 million, which represented a $4.1 million, or 37.3%, increase from $11.0
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. This increase primarily resulted
from greater resales of Sun Microsystems hardware during 1999.

     LICENSE FEES. License fees for the six months ended June 30, 1999 were
$1,972,000 compared to $1,395,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998, an
increase of $577,000 or 41.4%. This increase resulted primarily from a


                                       6
<PAGE>

$425,000 sale of a NeoLinkTM software license during the second quarter of 1999.
Cost of sales as a percentage of related sales was 19.2% during 1999 compared
to 8.2% during 1998. This increase in the cost of sales as a percentage of
related sales was primarily due to the increased sales of software with
royalties.

     RESALES OF SOFTWARE AND TECHNOLOGY EQUIPMENT. Resales of software and
technology equipment increased by $3.4 million, or 44.3%, to $10.9 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to $7.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1998. This increase primarily resulted from a large volume
of Sun Microsystems hardware resales. Cost of sales as a percentage of related
sales was 85.0% during 1999, compared to 84.4% during 1998.

     SERVICE FEES. NeoMedia's service fees increased by $168,000, or 7.9%, to
$2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $2.1 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1998. This increase was primarily due to an
increase in fees related to Year 2000 services during 1999. Cost of service fees
as a percentage of related sales increased to 95.0% during 1999 from 76.6%
during 1998 primarily due to lower margins on Year 2000 services and an increase
in subcontractor costs.

     SALES AND MARKETING. A portion of the compensation to the sales and
marketing staff constitutes salary and is fixed in nature and the remainder of
this compensation, which is paid as a commission, is directly related to sales
volume. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $1.1 million, or 23.9%, to 3.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $4.6 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease was primarily due to cutbacks in
marketing expenses.

     GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses decreased
by $0.5 million, or 20.0%, from $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30,
1998 to $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The decrease was
primarily due to a decrease in outside professional and legal services, as well
as a drop in incidental expenses such as travel and lodging.

     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expense remained
relatively unchanged at $503,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, and
$480,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. These expenditures are
primarily attributable to the cost of employees involved in the further
development and enhancement of the IDOCsTM product line. To the extent the
Company can obtain additional capital, it will continue to make significant
investments in research and development.

     INTEREST EXPENSE/(INCOME), NET. Interest expense consists primarily of
interest paid to creditors as part of financed purchases, capitalized leases,
notes payable and NeoMedia's asset-based collateralized line of credit net of
interest earned on cash equivalent investments. Interest expense/(income)
increased by $257,000, or 187.6%, to $120,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1999 from ($137,000) for the six months ended June 30, 1998, due to the interest
expense incurred on new debt issued during the last quarter of 1998 and lower
cash balances in 1999, from which less interest income was received.

     NET LOSS. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $3.7
million, which represented a $1.5 million, or 28.8%, decrease from a $5.2
million loss for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease in net loss
primarily resulted from an increase in sales, as well as a decrease in selling,
marketing and administrative expenses during 1999.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AS COMPARED TO
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998

     NET SALES. Total net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1999 were
$7.3 million, which represented a $2.3 million, or 46.0%, increase from $5.0
million for the three months ended June 30, 1998. This increase primarily
resulted from greater resales of Sun Microsystems hardware during 1999.

     LICENSE FEES. License fees for the three months ended June 30, 1999 were
$939,000 compared to $600,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998, an
increase of $339,000 or 56.5%. This increase resulted primarily from a


                                       7
<PAGE>

$425,000 sale of a NeoLinkTM software license during the second quarter of 1999.
Cost of sales as a percentage of related sales was 15.4% during 1999 compared
to 9.2% during 1998. This increase in the cost of sales as a percentage of
related sales was primarily due to the increased sales of software with
royalties.

     RESALES OF SOFTWARE AND TECHNOLOGY EQUIPMENT. Resales of software and
technology equipment increased by $1.9 million, or 52.8%, to $5.5 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to $3.6 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1998. This increase primarily resulted from a large volume
of Sun Microsystems hardware resales during 1999. Cost of sales as a percentage
of related sales was 87.3% during 1999, compared to 85.4% during 1998.

     SERVICE FEES. NeoMedia's service fees increased by $43,000, or 4.9%, to
$919,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $876,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1998. This increase was primarily due to an increase
in fees related to Year 2000 services during 1999. Cost of service fees as a
percentage of related sales decreased to 100.2% during 1999 from 126.8% during
1998 primarily due to decreased subcontractor costs during the second quarter of
1999.

     SALES AND MARKETING. A portion of the compensation to the sales and
marketing staff constitutes salary and is fixed in nature and the remainder of
this compensation, which is paid as a commission, is directly related to sales
volume. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $1.1 million, or 39.3%, to 1.7
million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $2.8 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease was primarily due to cutbacks
in marketing expenses.

     GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses decreased
by $563,000, or 33.1%, from $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30,
1998 to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. The decrease was
primarily due to a decrease in outside professional and legal services, as well
as a drop in incidental expenses such as travel and lodging.

     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expense remained
relatively unchanged at $283,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, and
$251,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998. These expenditures are
primarily attributable to the cost of employees involved in the further
development and enhancement of the IDOCsTM product line. To the extent the
Company can obtain additional capital, it will continue to make significant
investments in research and development.

     INTEREST EXPENSE/(INCOME), NET. Interest expense consists primarily of
interest paid to creditors as part of financed purchases, capitalized leases,
notes payable and NeoMedia's asset-based collateralized line of credit net of
interest earned on cash equivalent investments. Interest expense/(income)
increased by $113,000, or 173.8%, to $48,000 for the three months ended June 30,
1999 from ($65,000) for the three months ended June 30, 1998, due to the
interest expense incurred on new debt issued during the last quarter of 1998 and
lower cash balances in 1999, from which less interest income was received.

     NET LOSS. The net loss for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $1.9
million, which represented a $2.1 million, or 52.5%, decrease from a $4.0
million loss for the three months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease in net loss
primarily resulted from an increase in sales, as well as a decrease in selling,
marketing and administration expenses during 1999.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         As of June 30, 1999, NeoMedia's working capital was $1.1 million which
represented a $1.6 million increase from December 31, 1998. As of June 30, 1999,
NeoMedias cash and cash equivalents were $2.9 million, which represented a $1.5
million increase from December 31, 1998.

     NeoMedia anticipates that its existing cash balances and funds available
from borrowings under its existing financing agreement will have to be
supplemented with additional funds, through loans and/or capital contributions,
to


                                       8
<PAGE>

finance NeoMedia's operations in 1999. During the first half of 1999, the
Company has successfully obtained approximately $5.1 million of equity financing
and approximately $2.0 million of convertible debt financing. If necessary funds
are not available, NeoMedia's business and operations would be materially
adversely affected and in such event, NeoMedia would attempt to reduce costs and
adjust its business plan.

     Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30,
1999 and 1998, was $4.9 million and 3.0 million, respectively. During 1999,
trade accounts receivable increased $918,000, while accounts payable and accrued
expenses and other current liabilities decreased $1.1 million. During 1998,
trade accounts receivable decreased $1.8 million, while accounts payable and
accrued expenses and other current liabilities decreased $223,000. NeoMedia's
net cash flow used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30,
1999 and 1998, was $666,000 and $1.3 million, respectively. This decrease
resulted from a decrease in purchases of intangible assets and equipment during
1999.

     Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30,
1999 and 1998, was $7.1 million and $115,000, respectively. The increase was due
to approximately $5.1 million in equity, including $528,000 from the exercise of
employee stock options, and $2.0 million in convertible debt financing obtained
during the first half of 1999.

     The Company has entered into a migration contract (specifically Year 2000
remediation) with a Colombian customer related to the remediation of certain of
the customer's computer systems to be Year 2000 compliant. The total contract is
approximately $1 million, of which approximately $700,000 has been recognized as
revenue by the Company as of June 30, 1999. As an element to the contract the
Company has guaranteed its work product and resulting Year 2000 compliance of
the customer up to $150,000 of the contract value. To this end, during 1999 the
Company established bank guarantees in the form of certificates of deposit
totaling approximately $150,000 in favor of the customer. The Company believes
that it has the ability and intent to complete such remediation in a
satisfactory manner and is accounting for this project on a percentage of
completion basis.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

     In the next year, many companies, including NeoMedia, will face potentially
serious issues associated with the inability of existing data processing
hardware and software to appropriately recognize calendar dates beginning in the
year 2000. Many computer programs that can only distinguish the final two digits
of the year entered may read entries for the year 2000 as the year 1900. In
1996, NeoMedia began the process of identifying the many software applications
and hardware devices used internally expected to be impacted by this issue.
NeoMedia's analysis encompasses its (i) applications software; (ii) hardware and
(iii) data residing in programs. The software programs used internally by
NeoMedia (primarily its general ledger accounting package) were purchased from
third party vendors. In assessing its risk of non-compliance, the Company=s
internal systems department classified vital and non-vital production systems.
NeoMedia has completed the analysis of over 70% of all production systems
software (representing virtually all of the Avital@ systems comprising the
corporate backbone), including verification by third party vendors that the
programs are Year 2000 compliant, as well as internal testing which confirms
readiness of those programs. NeoMedia incurred costs of approximately $1,000 in
upgrading the operating system, and about $3,500 in upgrading the application
program, for its existing accounting general ledger program. In addition, during
1999 the Company purchased and installed a new general ledger accounting
package, which is Year 2000 compliant according to the vendor. The Company
expects to maintain the existing accounting package for archival and contingency
purposes. As an additional measure of security, routine back-ups of data are
performed to preserve information in various vital systems, and manual or paper
files are maintained if other measures fail with regard to the most vital
accounting functions. The remaining 30% of the application software is
considered either non-vital or capable of compliance with a vendor-provided
Apatch@ on an as-needed basis. NeoMedia expects to test virtually all remaining
application programs in 1999. NeoMedia believes that the hardware devices
supporting production systems which were not year 2000 compliant have been
replaced with those which are year 2000 compliant. The few remaining PC's which
are not now compliant are scheduled for routine replacement during 1999 with
compliant hardware, thereby eliminating the year 2000 concern. Although prudent
measures have been taken, there can be no assurance that NeoMedia will not be
adversely affected by the failure of the upgraded package to be fully year 2000
compliant as represented by the vendor. With hardware and software matters
nearing completion in 1999, NeoMedia plans to utilize its proprietary software
tools to analyze vital data residing in application programs, such as accounting
spreadsheets, for non-complaint data. Vital data will be remediated.

NeoMedia believes that its proprietary software, for which it is currently
selling licenses, is year 2000 compliant. Remaining year 2000 remediation costs
are anticipated to be insignificant.
