                      CHAPMAN HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                               SEPTEMBER 30, 1999

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Chapman Holdings, Inc. provides securities brokerage and investment banking
services. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of Chapman Holdings, Inc. (CHI) and its wholly owned
subsidiaries, The Chapman Co. and Charles A. Bell (collectively, the Company).
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated
in consolidation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements are
presented on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. 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 as of 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.

INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1999, are unaudited, but in the opinion of management,
such financial statements have been presented on the same basis as the audited
consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position and results of operations, for the periods.

As permitted under the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, these financial statements do not include all disclosures
normally included with audited consolidated financial statements, and
accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto as of December 31, 1998, included in the Company's
Form 10K-SB filed. The results of operations presented in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements are not necessarily representative of
operations for an entire year and because of the nature of the Company's
operations can be materially different between periods.

PLAN OF MERGER

Subsequent to September 30, 1999, the Company signed a merger agreement which is
subject to stockholders approval and the completion of an initial public stock
offering of common stock by eChapman.com, among other things, to merge into a
wholly owned subsidiary of eChapman.com. This merger would result in the
Company, Chapman Capital Management Holdings, Inc. and Chapman Insurance
Holdings, Inc. becoming wholly-owned subsidiaries of eChapman.com. eChapman is
a newly formed corporation designed to bring these companies together to take
advantage of the unique opportunities presented by the growth of the Internet.
eChapman.com is owned by the major stockholder of the Company.

This planned merger and the operations of eChapman.com after the merger are
subject to certain risks. The negative impact from these risks could have
material adverse effects on the future results of operations and financial
position

                                       5

of the Company. These risk items include the fact that eChapman.com has not
launched a web site and has no internet-related operating history; the web
site must be designed, developed, hosted by a service provider and marketed;
eChapman.com must raise at least $20 million from its planned public offering
to complete this merger; the eChapman.com brand must be successful in order
for it to attract users, advertisers and strategic partners; and the success
of the "Domestic Emerging Markets" strategy through the use of the internet.

SECURITIES OWNED AND NOT YET PURCHASED

Securities owned consist of trading proprietary stock, which is carried at
market. The proprietary stock is primarily stock of CHI and Chapman Capital
Management Holdings, Inc. (CCMH), an affiliate. The Chapman Co. is a market
maker for CHI and for CCMH and, thus, holds this stock in inventory. As of
September 30, 1999, the Chapman Co. held 121,133 shares of common stock of CHI.
The proprietary stock was purchased on margin.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

As of September 30, 1999, there were 43,900 stock options outstanding; however
the common stock equivalents of these options was not included in the diluted
earnings per share as the stock options are antidilutive.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In July 1999, the Company borrowed $3,220,000 from Chapman Capital Management
Holdings, Inc., an affiliate, in connection with the Company's participation
in a municipal underwriting syndicate. The note was payable on demand and
accrued interest at an interest rate equal to the brokers call rate as in
effect from time to time. The loan and accrued interest were repaid September
14, 1999.

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

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

         Certain statements under the caption "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this
Report constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause
the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company, or industry
results, to be materially different from any future results, performance, or
achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such
factors include, among others, general economic and business conditions in the
Company's market area, inflation, fluctuations in interest rates, changes in
government regulations, competition and the ability of the Company to implement
its business strategy and other risks discussed in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1998, and in this and other
reports filed by the Company.

         Forward-looking statements are intended to apply only at the time they
are made. Moreover, whether or not stated in connection with a forward-looking
statement, the Company undertakes no obligation to correct or update a
forward-looking statement should the Company later become aware that it is not
likely to be achieved. If the Company were to update or correct a
forward-looking statement, investors and others should not conclude that the
Company will make additional updates or corrections thereafter.

         The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements contained in Item 1 of Part I of this Form 10-QSB.

         Total revenue increased $176,000, or 19.8% to $1,065,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 from $889,000 for the prior comparable period.
Total revenue increased by $1,848,000, or 78.4%, to $4,206,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 from $2,358,000 for the prior comparable period.
Revenue was higher due to an increase in commission revenue and municipal
designations combined with a gain on trading.

         Commissions revenue increased by $146,000, or 19.5% to $895,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $749,000 for the prior
comparable period. Commission revenue increased by $1,334,000, or 69.9%, to
$3,243,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $1,909,000 in
the comparable prior period. The increase was due to growth in revenues from
municipal designations which increased $613,000, or 190.0%, to $936,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $323,000 for the prior
comparable period. The company participated in 36 municipal designations
during the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to 28 in the prior
comparable period. Commission revenue from the sale of equities increased
$318,000, or 21.3%, to $1,807,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 from $1,489,000 for the prior comparable period. Commission revenue on
fixed income securities increased $375,000, or 396.6%, to $471,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $96,000 for the prior comparable
period. This increase in fixed income can be attributable to favorable
interest rates during the first nine months of the year.

         Underwriting and management fees revenue decreased $58,000, or 24.9%
to $175,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $233,000 for
the prior comparable period. Underwriting and management fee revenue
increased by $178,000, or 47.3%, to $554,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 from $376,000 for the prior comparable period. The
decrease for the quarter is due to a decrease in underwriting syndication's of
$112,000 offset by an increase in management fees of $54,000. The overall
increase is due to an increase in underwriting syndications of $58,000, or
33.3% to $232,000 from $174,000 and an increase in management and advisory
fees of $126,000, or 62.7% to $327,000 from $201,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999.

         Interest and dividends revenue decreased by $23,000, or 28.4% to
$58,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $81,000 for the
prior comparable period. Interest and dividend revenues decreased by $84,000,
or 34.0%, to $163,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from
$247,000 for the prior comparable period. This decrease is due to lower
earnings due to lower cash balances resulting from the Company's business
expansion strategy.

         The unrealized loss on trading was $63,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1999. An unrealized gain on trading of $246,000 was
reported for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The Company's
unrealized gain on trading is attributable to an increase in the market value
of the market making securities inventory.

         Total expenses increased by $583,000, or 49.3%, $1,765,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1999 from $1,182,000 for the prior
comparable period. Total expenses increased by 2,582,000, or 93.4%, to
$5,347,000 for the nine months ended from $2,765,000 for the prior

comparable period. The largest components of the increase in expenses are
associated with the opening of new regional offices in selected markets,
business development costs associated with the Company's marketing strategy
and increased staffing pursuant to the Company's business expansion strategy.

         Compensation and benefits increased by $193,000, or 35.3%, to
$739,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $546,000 for the
prior comparable period. As a percentage of total revenue, these expenses
were 69.4% and 61.4% respectively. Compensation and benefits increased by
$1,007,000, or 76.5%, to $2,324,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 from $1,317,000 for the prior comparable period. As a percentage of
revenue, these expenses were 55.2% and 55.9% respectively. Compensation
expense includes sales commissions paid to brokers and varies in relation to
changes in commission revenue. The increase in compensation and benefits is
attributable to the increase in commissions paid to brokers due to increased
retail and municipal sales volume and the addition of 29 employees compared
to September 30, 1998.

         Floor brokerage and clearing fees increased by $72,000, or 70.6%, to
$174,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $102,000 for the
prior comparable period. Floor brokerage and clearing fees increased by
$226,000, or 74.8%, to $528,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
from $302,000 for the prior comparable period. This increase is mainly due to
an increase in the number of broker's and related transaction volume offset
by a slight decline in the average dollar amount per transaction as a result
of changing clearing firms.

         Communications expense increased by $41,000, or 95.3%, to $84,000
for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $43,000 for the prior
comparable period. Communications expense increased by $86,000, or 66.2%, to
$216,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $130,000 for the
prior comparable period. This increase was primarily attributable to
increased usage associated with new offices and the Company's business
expansion strategy.

         Occupancy and equipment expense increased by $24,000, or 17.6%, to
$160,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $136,000 for the
prior comparable period. Occupancy and equipment expense increased by $158,000,
or 47.7%, to $489,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from
$331,000 for the prior comparable period. The increase is mainly attributable
to the opening of new offices and the Company's business expansion strategy.

         Professional fees increased by $92,000, or 69.2%, to $225,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1999 from $133,000 for the prior comparable
period. Professional fees increased by $464,000, or 241.7%, to $656,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $192,000 for the prior
comparable period. The increased use of legal services, independent audit
review services and marketing consultants is directly related to the
Company's business expansion strategy.

         Travel and business development expense decreased by $21,000, or 30.0%,
to $49,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $70,000 for the
prior comparable period. Travel and business development expense increased by
$93,000, or 55.7%, to $260,000 for the

                                       9

<PAGE>

nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $167,000 for the prior comparable
period due to increased travel related to business development activities.

         Other operating expenses increased by $182,000, or 119.7%, to $334,000
for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $152,000 for the prior
comparable period. Other operating expenses increased by $548,000, or 168.1%,
to $874,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $326,000 for
the prior comparable period. This increase primarily reflects increases in
advertising, telephone, postage, printing and filing fees.

         The income tax benefit increased by $174,000, or 280.6% to a tax
benefit of $236,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from
$62,000 for the prior comparable period. The income tax benefit increased by
$229,000, or 224.5%, to a tax benefit of $331,000 for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1999 from $102,000 for the prior comparable period. The
income tax benefit is due to a increase in loss from continuing operations
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

The net loss increased by $233,000, or 100.9%, to $464,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 from a net loss of $231,000 for the prior
comparable period. The net loss increased by $505,000, or 165.6%, to $810,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from a net loss of $305,000 for
the prior comparable period. The change was a result of items discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's assets are reasonably liquid with a substantial majority
consisting of cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, and
receivables from other broker-dealers and the company's clearing agent, all
of which fluctuate depending upon the levels of customer business and trading
activity. Receivables from broker-dealers and the Company's clearing agent
turnover rapidly. Both the Company's total assets as well as the individual
components as a percentage of total assets may vary significantly from period
to period because of changes relating to customer demand, economic and market
conditions, and proprietary trading strategies. The Company's total assets as
of September 30, 1999 were $9,263,000.

         Failure to maintain the required net capital may subject a firm to
suspension or expulsion by the NASD, the SEC and other regulatory bodies and
ultimately may require its liquidation. In 1995 and 1998, The Chapman Co. and
Mr. Chapman entered into consent agreements with the NASD regarding alleged
violations of the net capital rules in late 1993 and early 1994 and early
1996, respectively. The 1998 consent agreement also addressed alleged
violations of Rule 144 under the Securities Act with respect to the alleged
1996 net capital violation. The Chapman Co. and Mr. Chapman were censured and
jointly fined $30,000, and Mr. Chapman was suspended from association with
The Chapman Co. for 10 days pursuant to the 1995 consent agreement. Pursuant
to the 1998 consent agreement, The Chapman Co. was censured and fined $7,500,
and Mr. Chapman was censured, fined $7,500 and required to requalify by
examination as a Financial and Operations Principal. Mr. Chapman has not
requalified as a Financial and Operations Principal. The Chapman Co. has
exceeded all net capital requirements since such alleged violations.

         The Chapman Co., the Company's wholly-owned broker-dealer subsidiary,
is subject to the net capital rules of the NASD. As such, The Chapman Co. is
subject to certain restrictions on the use of capital and its related
liquidity. The net capital position of The Chapman Co. as of September 30,
1999 was $355,000, which was $105,000 in excess of its minimum NASD net
capital requirement.

         Subsequent to September 30, 1999, the Company signed a merger
agreement which is subject to stockholders approval and the completion of an
initial public stock offering of common stock by eChapman.com, among other
things, to merge into a wholly owned subsidiary of eChapman.com. This merger
would result in the Company, Chapman Capital Management Holdings, Inc. and
Chapman Insurance Holdings, Inc. becoming wholly-owned subsidiaries of
eChapman.com. eChapman is a newly formed corporation designed to bring these
companies together to take advantage of the unique opportunities presented by
the growth of the Internet. eChapman.com is owned by the major stockholder of
the Company.

         This planned merger and the operations of eChapman.com after the
merger are subject to certain risks. The negative impact from these risks
could have material adverse effects on the future results of operations and
financial position of the Company. These risk items include the fact that
eChapman.com has not launched a web site and has no internet-related
operating history; the web site must be designed, developed, hosted by a
service provider and marketed; eChapman.com must raise at least $20 million
from its planned public offering to complete this merger; the eChapman.com
brand must be successful in order for it to attract users, advertisers and
strategic partners; and the success of the "Domestic Emerging Markets"
strategy through the use of the internet.

         On December 14, 1998, The Chapman Co. advanced to Chapman Limited
Partnership I $19,536 for payment of certain taxes and related payments,
interest, and penalties. On October 22, 1999, Chapman Holdings, Inc. advanced
the partnership $49,037 for payment of certain taxes and related payments. As
of September 30, 1999, all of these advances remained outstanding. Future
lease payments will be applied to such advances until repaid in full.

         The Company's cash and cash equivalents were $1,775,000 as of September
30, 1999.

         The Company's overall capital and funding needs are continually
reviewed to ensure that its capital base can support the estimated needs of its
business. These reviews take into account business needs as well as the
Company's regulatory capital requirements. The Company believes that its
capital structure is adequate for current operations.

YEAR 2000 SOFTWARE ISSUE

         As the Year 2000 approaches, existing software programs and
operating systems must be reviewed to determine if they can accommodate
information that employs dates after December 31, 1999. As of September 30,
1999, Chapman Holdings' Year 2000 readiness costs were approximately $115,000
to cover assessment of systems, internal testing, point-to-point testing,
training, replacement and modification of existing systems, and contingency
planning.

         Chapman Holdings' estimates its Year 2000 readiness costs at
approximately $133,000. Chapman Holdings estimates that its total Year 2000
readiness costs will be approximately $230,000.

         Chapman Holdings has prepared a written plan detailing Chapman
Holdings' software and operating systems readiness issues for the Year 2000.
The plan identifies mission-critical and non mission-critical operating
systems of Chapman Holdings. Working with its hardware and software vendors
and other third parties to prepare for the Year 2000, Chapman Holdings
substantially completed necessary hardware and software renovations during
the second quarter of 1999. We tested during the third quarter of 1999 to
determine the effect of our readiness efforts, and we are currently working
with our hardware and software vendors and other third parties to complete
our Year 2000 contingency plan.

         Chapman Holdings' Year 2000 readiness plan involves four phases:

         PHASE I--ASSESSMENT. This phase involved the identification of all
systems that are date dependent. This phase was substantially completed
during the first quarter of 1998.

         PHASE II--RENOVATION. This phase involved the identification and
replacement of mission-critical systems which Chapman Holdings was unable to
update or certify as Y2K ready. This phase commenced in the first quarter of
1998 and was substantially completed in the second quarter of 1999. Remaining
activities relate to monitoring and following up with third parties as part
of our contingency planning activities in Phase IV.

         PHASE III--TESTING. This phase involves testing all systems that are
date dependent and upgrading all non[cad 220]compliant systems. Chapman Holding
completed this phase during the third quarter of 1999.

         PHASE IV--CONTINGENCY PLANNING. This phase involves an assessment of
all mission-critical systems for potential problems that would result from
Year 2000 related failures of software or hardware and also the development
of plans and strategies to continue operations should such failures occur.
The Chapman Co. has prepared an initial plan and will continue to refine and
expand it as required through the first quarter of 2000.

         Within Chapman Holdings' Year 2000 readiness plan, systems are
identified as "mission-critical" and "non mission-critical". Systems were
identified as "mission critical" if the loss of the system, software or
facility would cause an immediate stoppage of activity or a significant
impairment of a core business area. Systems were determined to be non-Y2K
ready based on information from manufacturers. Systems were identified as
"not mission critical" if loss of the system, although inconvenient, would
not cause an immediate stoppage of activity or significant impairment of a
core business area. The following table summarizes Chapman Holdings' estimate
of the status of mission-critical elements of Chapman Holdings' Year 2000
readiness plan.

         Chapman Holdings has relationships with third parties that may have
computer systems that are not Year 2000 ready. Chapman Holdings has
identified the third parties upon which it relies for mission-critical
systems and has contacted such third parties to confirm that their systems
are Year 2000 ready. Responses from the majority of these vendors during the
first and second quarters indicated that they expected to reach readiness by
the third quarter of 1999. Chapman Holdings continues to monitor the progress
of its vendors and suppliers. Chapman Holdings' contingency plan calls for
the replacement, whenever feasible, of any vendors of mission critical
systems that have not certified readiness by September 30, 1999. As of
November 11, 1999, only four such vendors had not verified readiness. We have
identified alternative vendors in the event these vendors are not year 2000
ready.

         While Chapman Holdings believes that it is taking prudent and
necessary action to become with Year 2000 requirements, there can be no
assurance that the Year 2000 issue will not result in information or
communications systems interruptions. Any such interruptions could be
expected to have a material adverse effect on Chapman Holdings' business,
financial condition, results of operations and business prospects and may
subject Chapman Holdings to liability to its clients. Chapman Holdings is
currently building upon its existing contingency plan in the event that
Chapman Holdings or third parties do not successfully complete their
readiness efforts, or if vendors or third parties controlling systems
critical to Chapman Holdings are unable to confirm that their systems will be
Year 2000 ready. These efforts may result in additional costs in excess of
current allocations and estimates.
