NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of JVWeb, Inc., a Texas
corporation ("Company"), have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's latest Annual Report
filed with the SEC on From 10-KSB. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim
periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially
duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the
most recent fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, as reported in Form 10-KSB, have
been omitted.
NOTE B - DEPOSIT FORFEITURE
The Company entered into an agreement on July 31, 1998 to acquire a financial
publication known as "Wall Street Whispers" from Time Financial Services, Inc.
("Seller") for $140,000. As of December 31, 1998 $55,000 had been paid for this
purchase. Due to stock market volatility and Company concerns about overall
financing, the Company agreed to terminate the purchase obligation, and Seller
was permitted to retain the $55,000. Consequently, the Company has recorded a
loss on this acquisition attempt.
NOTE C - CONSULTING AGREEMENT
The Company entered into an agreement with a consultant on October 1, 1998. The
Company agreed to issue 120,000 options at $0.50 per share as compensation for 2
years of consulting services.
<PAGE>
NOTE D - STOCK OPTIONS
As permitted under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (ASFAS) No. 123
(Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation), the Company has continued to apply
Accounting Principles Board (AAPB) Opinion No. 25 (Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees) and related interpretations. Accordingly, no compensation expense
has been recognized for the stock options. The Company has granted options
pursuant to its stock option plan. Grants are made at management's discretion,
and are compensation for services. At December 31, 1998 a total of 4,161,250
options were outstanding and exercisable with the following exercise prices:
3,756,250 at $0.10
285,000 at $0.25
120,000 at $0.50
Options that have been granted and are outstanding expire in 5 years from date
of grant, and are 100% exercisable at date of grant.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
SUMMARY
In general, JVWeb is structured to pursue two main business activities: 1) the
joint venturing of Brands that have strong on-line commerce potential, and 2)
the building of a strong fee for service division to deepen our capabilities. In
this past quarter, management refined its focus on building a strong fee for
service division. A significant percentage of the resources of the company were
devoted to developing a well-defined marketing campaign around very specific
consulting services that emphasized the strengths of the company. At the present
time, JVWEb has no significant contracts signed as a result of these efforts.
Management anticipates seeing the benefits of this effort in the quarter ending
March 31, 1999.
We have established three profit centers within our fee for service division.
The first is a web-hosting service, based in Phoenix, Arizona. The second is the
web development capabilities of Lernout & Hauspie that we market in the U.S. The
third is the strategic internet services consulting that is the core expertise
of JVWEb.
Among the resources that have been established to initiate the marketing of a
fee for service division are the previously announced web-hosting facility
(co-located with GTE), as well as the offices being established in New York and
San Francisco. The company continues to build on its relationship with Lernout &
Hauspie (L&H). Management, for example, is exploring opportunities to leverage
the capabilities of L&H in the U.S., while offering its web-hosting and other
services to L&H in Europe. We are hopeful that these efforts will produce
significant revenue growth for us. However, at this time, we have not signed any
significant contracts as a result of these efforts.
INCOME STATEMENT
Revenue. Management had previously announced its first web-hosting customer at
the end of this quarter. Revenue for web-hosting will initiate in January, 1999,
and we are hopeful it will grow as new customers are added. Management also is
hopeful consulting revenue will initiate in the quarter ending March 31, 1999.
General and Administrative Expenses. Out of the total G&A expenditures for the
quarter, 44%, or $55,000 was due to the write-off of accumulated expenditures
related to the aborted acquisition of Wall Street Whispers. Management is
continuing to have discussions with the owners of Whispers for a joint marketing
relationship around the Whispers newsletter, however, no agreement has been
reached at this time on that possibility.
A material percentage of the remaining G&A expenditures represented travel and
organizational costs associated with the establishment of a presence in New York
and California, as well as the pursuit of development with L&H in their Ipswich
(London) office. Additional expenditures were incurred in establishing the web
hosting capability in Phoenix, Arizona.
Remaining G&A expenditures were related to the costs of being a public company,
including the associated costs of maintaining a fully reporting status with the
S.E.C.
BALANCE SHEET
Cash. The principal shareholder and related parties, continue to fund the
minimal operations of the company on an as-needed basis.
Inventory. Inventory of $8,946 represents merchandise related to the Dadandme
and Frogletz product lines. Management continues to explore relationships and
joint venture opportunities that will support a marketing campaign to build
these on-line brands. At this time, no such talks are in serious discussion
stages.
Accounts Payable. As of February 15, 1999, a majority of the costs, which were
associated with the establishment of JVWeb as a public company, have been paid.
Notes Payable to Related Parties. We anticipate paying off these notes in 1999.
