actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-

statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances occurring
subsequent to the filing of this quarterly report with the SEC. Readers are
urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by the

Background:
During the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company's
activities were conducted primarily in its subsidiaries. During the
quarter ended June 30, 2000, the Company's subsidiaries and their
respective businesses were as follows:
Chronicle Commercial Printing, Inc. - commercial web offset printing
Stampede Network.com, Inc. - web design and hosting, and proprietary
database programming
Spiderscape.com, Inc. - internet and catalog based computer hardware
and software retailing
Bartow Communications, Inc. - publisher of new homes real estate
guides in Metropolitan Washington, DC
During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, the Company's subsidiaries and
their respective businesses were as follows:
Bright Now, Inc. - commercial web offset printing
Bartow Communications, Inc. - publisher of new homes real estate
guides in Metropolitan Washington, DC
Additionally, the Company acted as a contract publisher of trade
association publications in South Florida.
Financial results:
The Company greatly improved its financial position as of June 30, 2000 in
contrast to its financial position at June 30,1999. Current assets
increased by $733,673 and current liabilities decreased by $2,295,122 for
the report dates. The cash balance increased by $269,565 and the accounts
payable and accrued liabilities balances decreased by $1,098,236 as of the
aforementioned dates. Furthermore, bank overdrafts have been eliminated.
Stockholders' equity has increased by $3,915,625 from a deficit of
$(899,754) at June 30, 1999 to a balance of $3,015,871 at June 30, 2000.
Overall, the balance sheet has increased by $4,028,585 from assets, and
liabilities and equity of $2,460,885 at June 30, 1999 to $6,489,470 at
June 30, 2000.
The Company showed an increase in revenues for the three months ended June 30,
2000 in the amount of $140,044 or an increase of 38.4% over the same period
for 1999. For the nine months ended June 30, 2000 in contrast with the same
period of 1999 revenues decreased by only $18,037 or 1.3%. The reduction in
revenues may be attributed to the downtime for the installation of the new
press for Chronicle Commercial Printing, and the elimination of the retail
portion of Americomp Computers.
Management was able to decrease the cost of sales by
$365,830 and $521,579, respectively for the three and nine months periods ended
June 30, 2000 versus 1999. Additionally, the gross profit margin improved to
58.0% and 35.2% for the three and nine months periods ended June 30, 2000 in
contrast to negative 58.3% and negative 0.5% for the same periods in 1999.
Net loss per common share, basic decreased by $0.12 to $(0.01) for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 versus ($0.13) for the same quarter of 1999.
Additionally, net loss per common share, basic decreased by $0.21 to
$(0.05) for the nine months ended June 30, 2000 versus ($0.25) for the same
period of 1999.
Although not required for purposes of this filing, additional financial
comparisons are disclosed. Revenues increased by $160,421 or 46.5% for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 in comparison with the quarter ended March 31,
2000. Cost of sales decreased to 42.0% from 85.7% and gross profit increased
by $243,519 for the same quarter to quarter comparison. Additionally, to
consider the impact of the increase in weighted average shares outstanding at
June 30, 2000 on the net loss per share, the June 30, 1999 weighted average
shares outstanding is applied to the three months and nine months loss at June
30, 2000. This results in a net loss per share of $(0.08) and $(0.22) and a
decrease in the net loss per share of $0.05 and $0.03 for the three and nine
months periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively.
During the current quarter the Company's management has vigorously been
eliminating and rectifying ongoing operational and administrative matters
to more effectively continue with its ongoing efforts to strengthen and
ultimately bring profitability to the Company and its shareholders. These
efforts have included significant reduction of payables, resolution of
litigation and employment contracts, and refocusing on core business
objectives. To this end, in January 2000 the Company moved into a 32,000
square foot facility that can comfortably house all divisions with more
than adequate room for growth. The new state of the art FAST-300 press
(cost - $695,000) was installed in February 2000. In March the Company
acquired the assets and talent of ETA Internet Solutions, Inc. to establish
Stampede Network.com, Inc. Also, in March 2000 the Company redeployed the
assets of our Houston based Americomp Computers to Tampa to begin the
creation of Spiderscape.com, Inc. On April 5, 2000 the Company purchased
its new Tampa facility for $2,250,000 with better than market seller
financing and no mortgage payments required before the first quarter of our
next fiscal year. Effective July 21, 2000, the Company discontinued activities
with Bartow Communications, Inc. In August 2000 the Company completed
construction of a three classroom-training center located with its corporate
facility to be used for instruction of proprietary software programs. The name
of the training center is "i-Academy" and will be operated as a division of
Stampede Network.com, Inc. Additionally, Stampede Network.com has begun
offering staffing solutions of IT professionals to our clients on a temporary
to permanent basis. September will bring the launch of our Spiderscape
subsidiary with its on-line and catalog sales of computer hardware and software.
Liquidity and financial resources:
On February 9, 2000 the Company filed Form SB-2 for the registration of
securities to be sold to the public. The Company still has 15,683,860 shares
of common stock to offer for future sale.
During the quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company funded much
of its working capital needs through the sale of its common stock.
The Company's working capital position is positive as of June 30, 2000 and
has continued to remain in that position through the date of this filing.
Working capital at June 30, 2000 was $69,364. This is an increase in
working capital of $3,028,795 from the negative $2,959,431 working capital
at June 30, 1999. The Company's current ratio at June 30, 2000 is a
positive 1.0:1.0 ratio in sharp contrast to the negative current ratio of
1.0:12.0 at June 30, 1999.
