    CHAPMAN HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

    NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
    MARCH 31, 2000

    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
    subsidiary, the Chapman Co. (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 months ended March 31,
    2000 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, 1999,
    included in the Company's Form 10-KSB 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.

    SECURITIES OWNED

    Securities owned consist of trading proprietary stock, which is carried at
    market on the balance sheet. Any unrealized gain (loss) on trading of
    proprietary stock is included in earnings on the income statement. The
    proprietary stock as of March 31, 2000, is stock of Chapman Capital
    Management Holdings, Inc. (CCMH), a company whose majority stockholder is
    also the majority stockholder of the Company. The Chapman Co. is the market
    maker for CCMH and, thus, holds this stock in inventory. As of March 31,
    2000, The Chapman Co. held 131,000 shares of common stock of CCMH. The
    Company recorded an unrealized gain of approximately $33,000 and $185,000
    related to the CCMH stock held for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and
    1999, respectively.


                                       7

    TREASURY STOCK

    The Chapman Co. is also the market maker for CHI.  However, as CHI is the
    parent of The Chapman Co., all purchases and sales of the CHI's stock by the
    Chapman Co. have been accounted for as treasury stock transactions in the
    accompanying consolidated financial statements.  As of March 31, 2000 and
    December 31, 1999, the Chapman Co. held 124,000 and 126,000 shares of the
    CHI's stock in inventory, respectively.

    2.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

    Included in receivables from affiliates as of March 31, 2000, is $344,000
    due from eChapman.com. This amount represents expenses paid on eChapman's
    behalf. The realizability of this receivable may be significantly affected
    if the eChapman.com transaction is not completed.

    3.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

    On April 20, 2000, the stockholders of the Company approved the merger of
    the Company into a wholly owned subsidiary of eChapman.com. The merger will
    not be effective until the completion of an initial public stock offering of
    common stock of eChapman.com.

</TABLE>

         Total revenue decreased by $226,000, or 14.4%, to $1,346,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $1,572,000 for the prior comparable
period. Revenue was lower due to a decrease in municipal designations partially
offset by an increase in retail and institutional commissions and an increase in
syndicate underwritings.

Commission revenue decreased by $228,000, or 19.6%, to $935,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 from $1,163,000 for the prior comparable period.
The decrease was primarily due to a decline in revenues from municipal
participations that decreased $401,000, or 83.8%, to $78,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 from $479,000 for the prior comparable period.
The Company participated in 7 municipal participations during the three
months ended March 31, 2000 compared to 11 municipal participations in the
prior comparable period. This decline in municipal participations can be
attributed to an increase in interest rates from an average of 5.1% for the
quarter ending March 31, 1999 to an average of 6.5% for the quarter ending
March 31, 2000. Commission revenue from the sale of retail equities increased
$51,000, or 21.6%, to $287,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from
$236,000 for the prior comparable period. Commission revenue on sale of
institutional securities increased $103,000, or 27.7%, to $475,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $372,000 for the prior comparable
period.

Underwriting and management fee revenue increased $100,000, or 89.3%, to
$212,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $112,000 for the prior
comparable period. Underwriting revenue increased by $117,000, or 351.1%, for
the three months ended March 31, 2000. Management fee revenue decreased by
$17,000, or 26.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2000.

Interest and dividends decreased by $33,000, or 34.7%, to $62,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 from $95,000 for the prior comparable period. This
decrease in interest and dividend revenue resulted from lower cash balances and
corresponding lower interest and dividend earnings in connection with the
Company's ongoing business expansion strategy.

The gain on trading was $137,000 for three months ended March 31, 2000 compared
to a gain of $202,000 for the prior comparable period. The Company's decrease is
attributable to a slight decrease in market value of its market making
securities inventory.

Total expenses increased by $51,000, or 2.9% to $1,807,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from $1,756,000 for the prior comparable period. The slight
increase in overall expense is mainly attributable to increased staffing offset
by a decrease in professional fees.

Compensation and benefits increased by $159,000, or 20.9%, to $920,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $761,000 for the prior comparable
period. Compensation expense includes sales commissions paid to brokers and
varies in relation to changes in commission revenue.

                                       11

<PAGE>

The increase in compensation is mainly due to the addition of three employees
and an increase in commission expense due to a change in commission structure
on institutional sales compared to the three months ended March 31, 1999.

Communication expense increased by $23,000, or 35.9%, to $87,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 from $64,000 for the prior comparable period. This
increase is attributable to increased staffing throughout the year as a result
of the Company's overall business expansion efforts.

Occupancy and equipment decreased by $21,000, or 12.3%, to $150,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $171,000 for the prior comparable
period. The decrease is primarily the result of renegotiating existing office
leases upon renewal.

Professional fees decreased by $127,000, or 55.0%, to $104,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 from $231,000 for the prior comparable period. The
decrease in professional fees is the result of the expiration of contractual
arrangements and the decline in the use of consultants for special projects.

Travel and business development decreased by $51,000, or 64.6%, to $28,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $79,000 for the prior comparable
period. The decrease is due primarily to a decrease in travel during the
period.

Advertising expense increased by $51,000, or 68.0%, to $126,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 from $75,000 for the prior comparable period.
This increase is attributable to the Company's efforts to increase public
awareness of the Chapman brand name and the DEM (Domestic Emerging Market)
strategy.

Other operating expenses increased by $22,000, or 11.6%, to $211,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $189,000 for the prior comparable
period. The increase in other operating expense is primarily due to increases
in postage, repairs and maintenance, printing costs, seminars, conferences
and dues and subscriptions offset by decreases in interest expense and other
taxes which account for 95.5% of the total variance.

Income tax benefit decreased by $61,000 for the three months ended March 31,
2000 from a tax benefit of $61,000 for the prior comparable period. The decrease
in the income tax benefit is due to a valuation reserve established on December
31, 1999.

Net loss increased by $338,000 to $461,000 for the three months ended March 31,
2000 from $123,000 for the prior comparable period. This change was a result of
the items discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Chapman Holdings' assets are reasonably liquid with a substantial
majority consisting of cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, and
receivables from other broker-dealers and Chapman Holdings' clear agent, all
of which fluctuate depending upon the levels of customer business and trading
activity. Receivables from broker-dealers and Chapman Holdings' clearing
agent turn over rapidly. Both Chapman Holdings' 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. Chapman
Holdings' total assets of December 31, 1999 and March 31, 2000 were
$8,535,000 and $7,955,000, respectively.

     The Chapman Co., Chapman Holdings' 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 December
31, 1999 and March 31, 2000 was $1,528,000 and 1,835,000, respectively which
was $1,278,000 and $1,585,000, respectively in excess of its minimum NASD net
capital requirement.

     Chapman Holdings' cash and cash equivalents were $1,035,00 and $958,000
as of December 31, 1999 and March 31, 2000, respectively.

     Historically, Chapman Holdings has financed its operations through the
sale of equity securities and cash flow from operations. At March 31, 2000,
Champman Holdings had margin debt of approximately $1,632,000 to finance the
purchase of securities owned which is primarily the stock of Chapman Holdings
and Chapman Capital Management Holdings, Inc. Chapman Holdings' 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 Chapman Holdings' regulatory capital
requirements. Chapman Holdings believes that its capital structure is
adequate for current operations.

                            YEAR 2000 SYSTEM COSTS

     The Year 2000 issue affects the ability of computer systems to correctly
process dates after December 31, 1999. The Company has completed the
inventory and assessment phases of its Year 2000 project plan through an
evaluation of its internal and third party software, as well as its primary
service providers' computer systems, to determine their ability to accurately
process after December 31, 1999. The Company has completed the testing of its
critical internal application systems.

     Although we suffered no significant Year 2000 problems at the start of
2000 or thorugh March 31, 2000, and while we believe that we are taking
prudent and necessary action to maintain Year 2000 readiness, we can give no
assurance that the Year 2000 issue will not result in future information or
communications systems interruptions. Any interruptions could be expected to
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of
operations and business prospects and may subject us to liability to our
clients. We are currently building upon our existing contingency plan.
