             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation

         GSV, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") is an Internet incubator and
investment company. It also continues to operate Tools for Living its direct
response and online consumer retail division. In February of 2000 the Company
announced a change in its core strategy to an Internet incubator and investment
model, and simultaneously announced its intention to discontinue the operations
of its remaining operating divisions with the exception of Tools for Living.

         Through its Internet incubator and investment operations, the Company
aims to identify and develop attractive early stage Internet companies, and to
provide these companies, as needed, with management, marketing, financing
(including early stage seed capital), human resources, accounting resources, use
of its facilities and its extensive expertise in business development. In
exchange for these services the Company will seek equity positions in these
companies commensurate with the level and nature of services provided and the
stage of their development.

      The information presented as of March 31, 2000, and for the three-month
periods ending March 31, 2000 and 1999, is unaudited, but, in the opinion of
management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) which the Company considers necessary for the fair presentation of
the Company's financial position as of March 31, 2000, the results of its
operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 and its
cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999. The
consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying
notes for the year ended December 31, 1999, included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
period presentation.

      Effective June 1, 1999 the Company acquired all of the outstanding common
stock of The Magellan Group, Inc. ("Magellan"), an online and direct response
retailer of high quality personal care, home and health related products. The
acquisition was accounted for as a purchase, and accordingly, the results of
Magellan are included in the Company's consolidated financial results beginning
on the date of acquisition.

      The pro forma combined consolidated financial information for the three
months ended March 31, 1999, as though Magellan had been acquired on January 1,
1999, would have resulted in net sales of $1,586,000 and a net loss of
$2,352,000 and basic and diluted net loss per share of ($0.31). The pro forma
net loss includes amortization of goodwill of $719,000. This unaudited pro forma
combined consolidated financial information is presented for illustrative
purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the consolidated results of
operations in future periods or the results that actually would have been
realized had the Company and Magellan been a combined company during the
specified periods.

3.       Discontinued Operations

      In February of 2000, the Company announced a change in its core strategy
to an Internet incubator and investment model, and simultaneously announced its
intention to discontinue all operations with the exception of Tools for Living.
Consequently, the operations of the Company's Cybershop.com division were
discontinued. In February of 2000, the Company entered into a letter of intent
to sell electronics.net to two former executives of the Company. The Company has
been operating electronics.net since that time. The letter of intent to sell
electronics.net has been terminated, and in May of 2000, the online retail
operation of electronics.net were discontinued. As a result, the consolidated
financial statements and accompanying notes reflect both Cybershop.com and
electronics.net as discontinued operations. An estimated loss on disposal
relating to Cybershop.com of $435,000 was reflected in the Company's
consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999.
Actual results for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 for Cybershop.com included
operating losses of $346,000, a $1,000,000 gain on the sale of the cybershop.com
domain name, and reductions in the carrying amounts of current assets and fixed
assets of $120,000 and $415,000, respectively. In the first quarter of 2000, the
provision was reduced by $250,000 reflecting lower than anticipated losses for
Cybershop.com. Included in the estimated loss on disposal in the first quarter
of 2000 are estimated operating losses associated with electronics.net from the
measurement date of March 31, 2000 through the disposal date of May 5, 2000 of
$35,000. The net provision for discontinued operations as of March 31, 2000 is
$340,000. Total revenues applicable to electronics.net during the three months
ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 were $413,000 and $326,000, respectively. Total
losses generated by electronics.net during the three months ended March 31, 2000
and 1999 were $118,000 and $137,000, after minority interest, respectively.

The carrying value of the assets and liabilities of electronics.net as of March
31, 2000 are as follows:

            Accounts receivable, net                                $295,000
            Prepaid expenses and other current assets                 69,000
            Property plant and equipment, net                         32,000

            Current liabilities                                    (864,000)
                                                                -------------
            Net liabilities of discontinued operation               $168,000
                                                                =============

4.       Investment

      In conjunction with the sale of the operating assets of the discontinued
Cybershop.com operating division, in March of 2000, the Company completed the
sale of its cybershop.com domain name and customer lists. In exchange, the
Company received (i) $100,000 in cash and (ii) equity in a privately owned
company valued at approximately $900,000. The investment is valued on the cost
basis in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2000.

5.       Shareholders' Equity

         Pursuant to the terms of a private placement of equity securities of
the Company, completed on December 8, 1999, the Company issued 613,486 shares of
common stock in February 2000 upon the exercise of common stock warrants
("adjustable common stock warrants"), at an effective exercise price of $.001
per share.

6.       Stock Option Plan

     During the three months ended March 31, 2000, options to purchase
approximately 500,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock were granted, at
market value on date of grant, to an employee under the 1998 Stock Option Plan.

7.        Net Loss Per Common Share

explained below, by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the period as follows:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking Statements

      From time to time, the Company may publish statements which are not
historical facts, but are forward-looking statements relating to such matters as
anticipated financial performance, business prospects, technological
developments, new products, research and development activities and similar
matters. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe
harbor for forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are
subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from historical and anticipated results or other expectations
expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking
statements may be identified by the use of certain forward-looking terminology,
such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "believe,"
"goal," or "continue," or comparable terminology that involves risks or
uncertainties. Actual future results and trends may differ materially from
historical results or those anticipated depending on a variety of factors,
including, but not limited to, those set forth under "Overview" and "Liquidity
and Capital Resources" included in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Particular attention should be
paid to the cautionary statements involving the Company's limited operating
history, the unpredictability of its future revenues, the unpredictable and
evolving nature of its key markets, the intensely competitive on-line commerce
environment, the Company's dependence on its strategic alliances and key
suppliers and distributors, and the risks associated with capacity constraints,
systems development, the management of growth, the inherent risks and
uncertainties of litigation, the risks of new business areas, as well as such
risks (or others) that exist to any portfolio company in which the Company
invests. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to
update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise. Readers, however, should carefully review the facts
set forth in other reports or documents that the Company has filed or files from
time to time with the SEC.

Overview

      GSV, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") is an Internet incubator and
investment company. It also continues to operate Tools for Living its direct
response and online consumer retail division. In February of 2000, the Company
announced a change in its core strategy to an Internet incubator and investment
model, and simultaneously announced its intention to discontinue the operations
of its remaining operating divisions with the exception of Tools for Living.

      Tools for Living began operating in the second quarter of 1999, through
the acquisition of The Magellan Group, Inc. ("Magellan") and offers high quality
merchandise in the personal care, health and home accessories categories as
promoted through direct response print media campaigns in national consumer
magazines as well as through its web site.

      Through its Internet incubator and investment operations, the Company aims
to identify and develop attractive early stage Internet companies, and to
provide these companies, as needed, with management, marketing, financing
(including early stage seed capital), human resources, accounting resources, use
of its facilities and its extensive expertise in business development. In
exchange for these services the Company will seek equity positions in these
companies commensurate with the level and nature of services provided and the
stage of their development.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1999.

Sales: Sales are comprised of sales of products, net of returns and outbound
shipping and handling charges. Total sales for the three months ended March 31,
2000 were $1,825,000. Sales of one item, obtained from a single supplier,
accounted for approximately 56% of net sales. Unfulfilled orders for product
as of March 31, 2000 were approximately $1,000,000. As of May 11, 2000, the
balance of unfulfilled orders were reduced to approximately $500,000.

Cost of revenues: Cost of revenues consists of the cost of products sold to
customers and shipping costs. Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31,
2000 were $734,000 and gross profit margins were 59.8%

Sales and marketing: Sales and marketing primarily consists of advertising,
fulfillment, promotional costs and related payroll expenses. Sales and marketing
expenses were $1,283,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Sales and
marketing was higher than expected as a percentage of sales at approximately
70%, due to the higher than usual level of unfulfilled orders and lower than
anticipated demand produced from advertising placed in the current quarter and
the fourth quarter of the prior year.

General and administrative: General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of payroll and payroll related expenses for administrative,
information technology, accounting, and management personnel, recruiting, legal
fees, and general corporate expenses. General and administrative expenses
increased by 34%, or $220,000 to $868,000 in the first quarter of 2000 from
$648,000 in the first quarter of 1999. General and administrative expenses in
the prior period reflect general corporate overhead, whereas the first quarter
of 2000 contains both general corporate overhead as well as expenses related to
the Tools for Living operation.

Amortization of goodwill and other merger and acquisition related costs:
Amortization of goodwill and other merger and acquisition related costs of
$744,000 in the first quarter of 2000 consists of goodwill associated with the
purchase of Magellan which is being amortized on a straight line basis over five
years.

Interest income, net: Interest income decreased $43,000 to $79,000 in the first
quarter of 2000 from $122,000 in the first quarter of 1999. The decrease is
primarily the result of a decrease in average cash and cash equivalents.

Net Losses: Loss from continuing operations increased by $1,199,000 from
$526,000 in the first quarter of 1999, or ($0.07) per basic and diluted common
share, to $1,725,000 in the first quarter of 2000, or ($0.17) per basic and
diluted common share. After the effect of adjustable common stock warrants, loss
per common share from continuing operations was ($0.47) in 2000. Net loss
decreased by $245,000 from $1,838,000 in the first quarter of 1999, or ($0.25)
per basic and diluted common share, to $1,593,000 in the first quarter of 2000,
or ($0.15) per basic and diluted common share. After the effect of adjustable
common stock warrants net loss per common share was ($0.46) in the first quarter
of 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Net cash used in operations was $2,718,000 and $1,567,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, primarily as a result of
a reduction in accounts payable and accrued liabilities totaling $2,148,000.
Current assets other than cash decreased $383,000 in the first quarter of 2000
from $2,338,000 at December 31, 1999, to $1,955,000, reflecting lower sales in
the later half of the quarter and therefore lower levels of receivables, prepaid
advertising and inventory.


      Net cash used in investing activities during the first three months of
2000 was $24,000 as compared to $152,000 in the same period of the prior year.
Both periods use of cash primarily related to purchases of computer equipment
and software.

      Net cash provided by financing activities during the first three months of
2000 was $84,000 as compared to $108,000 in the same period of the prior year.
Sources of cash during both periods were primarily the result of proceeds on the
exercise of employee stock options.

      The Company believes that its existing capital resources will enable it to
maintain its operations at existing levels for at least the next twelve months.
The Company is, however, currently considering the funding requirements
associated with its new Internet incubator and investment operations, including
the need for additional debt and/or equity financing. The sufficiency of the
Company's capital resources is substantially dependent upon the number of
investments the Company funds. Accordingly it is difficult to project the
Company's capital needs. However, the Company will evaluate potential
investments in terms of its then existing capital resources and the availability
of additional debt or equity financing and will ultimately decide on an
investment according to the sufficiency of those resources to fund the potential
investment as well as continuing operating requirements. There can be no
assurance that any additional financing or other sources of capital will be
available to the Company upon acceptable terms, if at all. The inability to
obtain additional financing, when needed, would have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, financial condition and operating results, and could
significantly slow the pace of development of its new Internet incubator and
investment operations.

Litigation

      In March and April 2000, twelve purported class actions entitled Ames v.
Cybershop, Ezeir v. Cybershop, Fuechtman v. Cybershop, Kaufman v. Cybershop,
Goldenberg v. Cybershop, Marino v. Cybershop, Waldarman v. Cybershop, Page v.
Cybershop, Young v. Cybershop, Johnson v. Cybershop, Hitzing v. Cybershop, and
Gerber v. Cybershop were filed in the United States District Court for the
District of New Jersey against the Company and certain of its current and former
officers and directors. The complaints in those actions allege that defendants
violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by
making or causing the Company to make materially false and misleading statements
about the Company. The Company intends to vigorously defend these actions.

     The Company continues to focus on developing its new Internet incubator and
investment strategy and continues to make progress. Unfortunately, the progress
has been hampered and delayed by the resulting legal actions filed against the
Company which have been both a distraction to the Company and its management and
an impediment to potential transactions.
