1
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS.
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SHOULD BE READ TOGETHER WITH THE
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES TO SUCH STATEMENTS APPEARING
ELSEWHERE HEREIN.
OVERVIEW
The Company provides a broad range of computer networking, programming,
applications development and Internet services primarily to businesses and
organizations. The Company's revenues are derived principally from consulting
fees earned in connection with the performance of systems integration services,
recurring monthly Internet connectivity fees and consulting fees earned in
connection with programming and applications development services.
The Company commenced operations in June 1995 as an Internet Service
Provider offering Web-site hosting services. Since April 1996, the Company has
acquired Interactive Networks, Inc., Mordor International, AllNet Technology
Services, Inc., Entelechy, Inc. ("Entelechy"), JDT WebwerX LLC, DesignFX
Interactive, LLC ("DesignFX"), MBS, Inc. ("MBS"), Halo Network Management, LLC
("Halo"), Mainsite Communications, the Renaissance Internet Services division of
PIVC, LLC, EZ Net, Inc., the ADViCOM division of Multitronics, Inc., Realshare,
Inc., Millennium Computer Applications, Inc., Planet Access, Inc., Spectrum
Information Systems Inc., ("Spectrum") and Spencer Analysis Inc. ("Spencer").
The Company began to provide Systems Integration and Programming and
Applications Development services in April 1996 and has increasingly emphasized
such services.
The Company's consulting services generally produce higher profit margins
than the Company's Internet services. For the year ended December 31, 1998,
Systems Integration, Programming and Applications Development and Internet
Services & Training accounted for approximately 77%, 15% and 8%, respectively,
of the Company's revenues as compared to 78%, 12% and 10%, respectively, for the
year ended December 31, 1997.
The Company expects that operating expenses will increase significantly in
connection with expansion activities that the Company anticipates undertaking,
including those related to: potential acquisitions of systems integrators,
programming and applications development firms and Internet Service Providers,
further development and upgrade of the Company's network and increased marketing
activities. Utilizing proceeds from the initial public offering (the
"Offering"), the Company began, during the second quarter of 1998, to increase
its expenditures in connection with network development and marketing efforts
that resulted in increased operating expenses during subsequent periods.
Accordingly, the Company's future profitability will depend on corresponding
increases in revenues from operations.
The Company's projected expense levels are based on its expectations
concerning future revenues and are fixed to a large extent. Any decline in
demand for the Company's services or increases in expenses that are not offset
by corresponding increases in revenue could have a material adverse effect on
the Company. The Company also expects to incur charges of approximately
$197,000, $197,000 and $17,000 related to the acquisition of Entelechy in the
years ending December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001; and charges of approximately
$99,000, $28,000, $28,000 and $6,000 in the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000,
2001 and 2002, respectively, in connection with the 1998 award of a restricted
stock grant to an executive officer and an option grant to directors. The value
of these grants will be expensed ratably over the respective periods that the
stock is earned and the options vest.
The Company anticipates that growth in its client and subscriber base will
increase operating costs (including expenses related to network infrastructure
and client support) and will require the Company to hire additional network
engineers, programmers and technical personnel. The Company currently has 254
full-time employees. The Company has entered into employment agreements with 46
of its employees, including its executive officers, which provide for aggregate
salaries of $6,385,000 through and including year-end December 31, 2002.
ACQUISITIONS
In January 1998, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of Entelechy in consideration of the issuance of an aggregate of

closing and 130,124 shares are to be issued ratably on each of the first, second
and third anniversary of the acquisition closing date, provided that, the former
Entelechy stockholders to whom such shares are issuable remain employees of the
Company on each respective anniversary. The Company incurred a charge of
approximately $180,000 relating to the issuance of such Common Stock in 1998 and
expects to incur charges of $197,000, $197,000 and $17,000 relating to the
issuance of such Common Stock in each of the years ending December 31, 1999,

of the Company's revenues represented by certain items reflected in the
Company's consolidated statement of operations data:

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998
REVENUES. Revenues increased by $5,749,000, or 61%, from $9,464,000 for
the year ended December 31, 1997, to $15,213,000 for the year ended December 31,
1998. Of the increase, $2,223,000, or 39%, was generated by the operations of
DesignFX, Halo Spectrum, and Spencer. The Company's evolving consulting
relationship with
3
Aetna accounted for $1,969,000, or 34%, of the increase in revenues. Expansion
of the Company's network and the corresponding increase in dial-up accounts
accounted for $310,000, or 5%, of the increase in revenues. The remaining
$1,247,000, or 22%, of the increase in revenues was attributable to an increase
in the number of clients of the Company, the revenue generated as a result of
the Entelechy acquisition in 1998, as well as an increase in the scope of
consulting and network integration projects undertaken during 1998 as compared
with 1997.
Halo's revenues for 1998 were $1,952,000 as compared with $1,848,000 for
1997, an increase of $104,000. The increase of $104,000 is principally due to an
increase in new 1998 business volume and customer growth of approximately
$748,000 offset by the loss of three customers whose revenues in 1997 totaled
approximately $700,000. Management believes that it will be able to grow
revenues derived from the provision of systems information services through
cross-selling opportunities created by its other businesses, as well as
increased sales and marketing efforts.
DesignFX's revenues for 1998 were $1,585,000 as compared with $572,000 for
1997, an increase of $1,013,000. This increase was due mainly to an increase in
clients; an increase in the number, size and complexity of new projects; and
increased revenues from the further development of a significant Web-site
project. Management believes that it will be able to continue the growth of its
Web-site design and programming services through cross-selling opportunities
created by its other businesses, as well as increased sales and marketing
efforts.
Spectrum's revenues for 1998 were $1,674,000, as compared with $411,000 in
1997, an increase of $1,263,000. This increase was due to: (i) the commencement
of full-time operations in December 1997 (ii) and an increase in its client
base. Management believes that it will be able to grow revenues derived from
network and systems integration solutions through cross-selling opportunities
created by its programming development and Internet services, as well as
increased sales and marketing efforts.
Spencer's revenues for 1998 were $3,734,000, as compared with
$3,892,000 in 1997, a decrease of $158,000. The decline in revenues was
associated with a decline in the billing rate of a segment of Spencer's network
consulting services.
COST OF SERVICES. Cost of services consists primarily of expenses relating
to the operation of the network, including telecommunications and Internet
access costs, costs associated with monitoring network traffic and quality and
providing technical support to clients and subscribers, cost of equipment and
applications sold to clients and subscribers, salaries and expenses of
engineering, programming and technical personnel and fees paid to outside
consultants engaged for client projects. Cost of services increased by
$4,736,000, or 87%, from $5,471,000 for 1997 to $10,207,000 for 1998. Growth in
the Company's direct payroll expense accounted for $1,726,000, or 36%, of the
increase in cost of services. Additional expenses (largely depreciation)
relating to the expansion of the Company's network accounted for $504,000, or
11%, of the increase in cost of services. Halo, DesignFX, Spectrum and Spencer
accounted for $1,702,000, or 36%, of the increase in cost of services. The
remaining $904,000, or 19%, of the increase in cost of services was attributable
to the increase in the number of engineers employed by the Company due to the
growth in its client base and an increase in the cost of equipment sold to such
clients.
Costs of services for Halo were $1,379,000 for 1998 as compared with
$1,153,000 for 1997, an increase of $226,000. This increase was due mainly to an
increase in the value of equipment sales to clients and subcontracted labor
costs.
Cost of services for DesignFX were $926,000 for 1998 as compared with
$565,000 in 1997, an increase of $361,000. This increase was due to costs
associated with new revenue growth and increases in the cost of equipment sales
to clients.
Cost of services for Spectrum were $1,405,000 for 1998 as compared with
$390,000 in 1997, an increase of $1,015,000. This increase was due to costs
associated with new revenue growth, increases in the value of equipment sold to
customers and commencement of full-time operations in December 1997.
Cost of services for Spencer were $2,364,000 for 1998 as compared with
$2,264,000 in 1997, an increase of $100,000. The increase in cost of services is
largely attributable to increase in cost of compensation for Spencer's
consulting professionals.
GROSS PROFIT. The Company's gross profit decreased from 42.2% to 32.9% of
revenues. In addition to the increased rates of spending for cost of services
when measured against the increase in revenues, gross profits were also
negatively impacted by a decrease in negotiated billing rates on major long term
consulting projects.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative
expenses consist primarily of salaries and costs associated with marketing
literature, advertising, direct mailings and the Company's management,
accounting, finance and administrative functions. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $990,000, or 25%, from $3,915,000 in 1997
to $4,905,000 for 1998. Such increase was primarily attributable to the
Company's expanded promotional and marketing activities, the hiring of
additional marketing personnel, the hiring of additional administrative
personnel to support the increase in the Company's professionals and client base
and additional administrative and professional costs associated with operating
as a public company.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for Halo for 1998 were
$303,000 as compared to $704,000 in 1997, a decrease of $401,000. This decrease
was due mainly to reduced facility costs and lower depreciation expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for DesignFX for 1998 were
$454,000 as compared to $850,000 in 1997, a decrease of $396,000. This decrease
was due mainly to lower marketing and advertising expenses, decreased
professional fees and decreased depreciation expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for Spectrum for 1998 were
$653,000 as compared to $41,000 in 1997, an increase of $612,000. This increase
was due to the hiring of additional sales and administrative personnel during
1998.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for Spencer for 1998 were
$1,251,000 as compared to $1,064,000 in 1997, an increase of $187,000. This
increase was due to the hiring of additional sales and administrative personnel
during 1998 and an increase of $45,000 in compensation to the Spencer
shareholder.
AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS. Amortization of intangible assets
increased by $161,000, from $12,000 for 1997 to $173,000 for 1998. This increase
is primarily attributable to the amortization of intangible assets (customer
lists and goodwill), related to the purchases of Entelechy and MBS.
NON-CASH COMPENSATION EXPENSE. The Company expects to incur charges in the
amount of approximately $197,000, $197,000 and $17,000 in each of the years
ending December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001, respectively, in connection with the
issuance of 130,124 shares of Common Stock to the former Entelechy stockholders.
The acquisition of Entelechy occurred in January 1998; there was no related
non-cash compensation expense related to this agreement for 1997. An April 1998
restricted stock award to an officer and 1998 option grants to outside directors
resulted in compensation charges of $24,000 and $79,000, respectively. Assuming
continued employment by these individuals, the Company expects charges of
$99,000, $28,000, $28,000 and $6,000 in the years ending December 31, 1999,
2000, 2001 and 2002 for such awards and grants. Non-cash compensation expense of
$120,000 and $7,000 was recognized in 1997 and 1998 for the value of services
provided by Spectrum stockholders (with no cash compensation) in 1997 and the
effects of a restricted stock grant to an employee that vested through February
1998.
MERGER RELATED EXPENSES. The Company incurred charges of $109,000 for fees
and costs associated with the acquisitions of DesignFX and Halo. Such amounts,
for transactions accounted for as a pooling-of-interests, are expensed as
services are rendered and costs are incurred. Costs to be incurred in connection
with the Spectrum and Spencer acquisitions will be expensed in the year ending
December 31, 1999.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense consists of interest on indebtedness
and capital leases and financing charges in connection with the issuance of the
1997 Notes. Interest expense was $129,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998
as compared to $81,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997. Excluding the
nonrecurring interest charge of $35,000 associated with the amortization of
warrants granted to the 1997 Note holders, interest expense for 1998
approximated $94,000, compared to $81,000 for 1997. This increase is due to the
effects of Spectrum financing costs of $45,000, offset by the effects of debt
repayments totaling $558,000 in 1998, the majority of which was funded with
proceeds from the Company's Offering.
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income of $185,000 for fiscal 1998 relates to
investment income generated by the Company's increased cash position due to
proceeds from the Offering in May of 1998. The Company has invested excess
proceeds from the Offering in short-term commercial paper and U.S. government
obligations.
OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET. In 1997, Halo recorded losses on disposals
of fixed assets of $45,000 offset by miscellaneous income of $32,000. In 1998,
the Company recognized, as a change in estimate, the effects of reducing $55,000
of liabilities accrued in previous years.
NET LOSS. As a result of the foregoing, the Company recognized a net loss
of $366,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 compared to a net loss of
$313,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary operating cash requirements have been to fund
expenses in connection with providing consulting services to clients and
5
Internet access to subscribers. The Company has historically satisfied its
working capital requirements principally through the issuance of debt and equity
securities. At December 31, 1998, the Company had working capital of $7,011,000,
compared to working capital of $1,075,000 at December 31, 1997.
During the period from May to August 1995, the Company received net
proceeds in the amount of $100,000 in connection with the issuance and sale of
48,980 shares of Common Stock and twenty $5,000 face amount promissory notes.
The 1995 Notes accrued interest at a rate of 6% and were payable in July 1998.
Interest expense for each of the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 amounted
to $6,000. Interest expense for 1998 amounted to $2,000. All principal and
accrued interest on the 1995 Notes were paid in full in June 1998. The proceeds
of the 1995 Notes were used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The Company received net proceeds of $200,000 in connection with the
issuance and sale of promissory notes and warrants to purchase an aggregate of
48,872 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.54 per share. The 1997
Notes accrued interest at the rate of 8% and were payable in full upon the
closing of the Offering. In June 1998, the Company repaid the outstanding
principal, aggregating $200,000, and accrued interest, aggregating $10,000, on
the 1997 Notes. The proceeds of the 1997 Notes were used for working capital and
general corporate purposes.
On May 14, 1998, the Company's registration statement on Form SB-2, as
amended (file number 333-47741), relating to the Offering was declared effective
by the SEC. Whale Securities Co., L.P. acted as the underwriter in connection
with the Offering which was consummated on May 20, 1998. In connection with the
Offering, the Company registered, issued and sold 1,380,000 shares of Common
Stock, including 180,000 shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the
exercise in full of the underwriter's over-allotment option at an initial public
offering price of $6.00 per share resulting in proceeds to the Company (net of
underwriting discount, commissions and other expenses payable by the Company) in
the aggregate approximate amount of $6,642,000. Additionally, the Company
registered 120,000 shares of Common Stock underlying warrants to purchase Common
Stock sold by the Company to the underwriter for $100. The warrants are
exercisable for a four-year period commencing on May 14, 1999 at a price of
$8.10 per share.
Further, upon consummation of the Offering, $150,000 in debt that the
Company assumed in its acquisition of Entelechy was converted into 25,000 shares
of Common Stock.
From the effective date of the Offering through December 31, 1998, the
Company incurred expenses in connection with the issuance and distribution of
securities in the Offering in the actual amount of $1,638,000. Such expenses
include underwriting discounts and commissions in the amount of $828,000,
expenses paid to or for the underwriter in the amount of $248,400 and other
expenses in the amount of $561,600. The Company believes that none of these
payments were made, directly or indirectly, to (i) directors or officers of the
Company or their affiliates, (ii) persons owning 10% or more of the Common Stock
or (iii) affiliates of the Company.
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities increased from
$(403,000) for 1997 to $411,000 for 1998. This change was primarily attributable
to (i) an increase in non cash losses and charges of $99,000, (ii) increased
depreciation and amortization expense of $352,000, (iii) decreases in accounts
receivable in the amount of $2,492,000, offset by (iv) decreases in accounts
payable of $698,000 and deferred revenue in the amount of $734,000.
Net cash used in investing activities increased from $377,000 for 1997 to
$867,000 for 1998. The change was attributable, in part, to an increase in
capital expenditures of $449,000, principally related to the expansion and
enhancement of the Company's network operations center, as well as to
expenditures for office equipment to support additional employees hired during
1998.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased from $766,000 in 1997
to $5,711,000 in 1998. This change is primarily attributable to the net proceeds
of $6,667,000 received in connection with the Offering offset by debt repayments
of $666,000 and increased capital distributions of $233,000 to the Spencer
shareholder.
From the effective date of the Offering through December 31, 1998, the
Company has applied an aggregate of $507,000 of the net proceeds of the Offering
for the full repayment of debt and $115,000 for acquisitions.
In May 1998, the Company paid in full all of its outstanding indebtedness
to Interchange State Bank, consisting of $9,000 in principal.
6
In October 1998, the Company repaid $200,000 of outstanding indebtedness
of DesignFX, and exercised the purchase option on an equipment lease for
$186,000 with Equity National Bank and Commerce Bank.
In December 1998, the Company paid in full all of the outstanding
principal and interest of Halo in the aggregate amount of $35,000 to Tinton
Falls National Bank.
At December 31, 1998, the Company had obligations pursuant to capital
lease obligations in the aggregate amount of $72,000. These capital lease
obligations are secured by the personal guarantees of Messrs. Loglisci,
Frederick and Altieri and, in addition, certain of these capital lease
agreements are secured by the equipment that is the subject of the capital
lease.
In March 1999, the Company paid in full all outstanding notes payable of
Spectrum ($84,000 outstanding at December 31, 1998).
In May 1998, the Company secured equipment lines of credit from Ascend
Credit Corp., Cisco Systems Capital Corp. and PAM Financial Corp., each in the
amount of $500,000.
In June 1998, the Company obtained a $1.5 million line of credit from
First Union National Bank. The line of credit is for a one-year period effective
July 1, 1998. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had no outstanding
indebtedness under such line of credit. The line was subsequently terminated in
1999.
The Company's working capital at December 31, 1998 approximated $7.0
million. The Company believes that operating cash flow generated through
existing customers and business activities, current cash and cash equivalents,
available credit through equipment vendor arrangements, and proceeds from the
sale of common stock are sufficient to fund operating cash flow needs, capital
expenditures (principally network improvements) and acquisitions. The Company's
current estimate of capital expenditures for the year ending December 31, 1999
approximates $2.3 million. For the period from January 1, 1999 through September
30, 1999, the Company has utilized cash of approximately $1,574,000 to fund
acquisitions.
FLUCTUATIONS IN OPERATING RESULTS
The Company's operating results may fluctuate significantly from period to
period as a result of the length of the Company's sales cycle, as well as from
client budgeting cycles, the introduction of new products and services by
competitors, the timing of expenditures, pricing changes in the industry,
technical difficulties, and general economic conditions. The Company's business
is generally subject to lengthy sales cycles that require the Company to make
expenditures and use significant resources prior to receipt of corresponding
revenues. Historically, the Company's revenues have been higher in the fourth
quarter as a result of client budgeting and expenditure cycles.
INFLATION
Inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's results of
operations.
YEAR 2000
The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using
two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Computer programs
that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year
1900 rather than the year 2000. This situation could result in a system failure
or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including inability to
process transactions or engage in normal business activities.
Management has evaluated the Company's computer software and hardware
systems, and, based on currently available information, believes that it will
not have to replace or modify any of its hardware but has, and will have, to
modify its software so that its systems will function properly with respect to
dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. It is believed that the greatest risk to
the Company will be from outside firms that the Company relies on for its
operations as well as the legacy computer systems of its clients. The failure by
outside firms and/or clients' failure to address Year 2000 issues could
interfere with the Company's ability to provide its services, and therefore
impact future revenues. As of December 1, 1999, the Company has contingency
plans in place to remedy these types of problems. Estimated costs associated
with such plans are not expected to exceed $100,000, which are likely to be
funded through the use of available internal employees and resources. At this
time, the Company believes that the most likely "worst case" scenario involves
potential disruptions in areas in which the Company's operations must rely on
outside firms or clients whose systems may not function properly after January
1, 2000.
7
While such failures could affect important operations of the Company, either
indirectly or directly, in a significant manner, the Company cannot at present
estimate either the likelihood or the potential cost of such failures.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Acquisitions
All of the following business combinations have been accounted for as
purchases and the respective results of operations will be reflected in the
Company's future operations.

On March 31, 1999, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement with
Spectrum, and all of Spectrum's shareholders. Spectrum is a full-service
provider of network and systems integration solutions based in Madison, Alabama.
Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, IBS acquired all of the issued and
outstanding shares of Spectrum in exchange for $3,200,000 (subject to certain
adjustments) of unregistered shares of IBS common stock valued by the parties at
$22.00 per share. The combination has been accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests. Accordingly, the Company's financial statements have been
restated for all periods presented to include the results of operations and
financial position of Spectrum.
On June 30, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger
with Spencer, and Spencer's shareholder. Spencer provides network consulting
services to a wide array of commercial businesses, including financial,
pharmaceutical and insurance companies located in the New York City metropolitan
area. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, IBS acquired all of the issued and
outstanding shares of Spencer in exchange for $5,551,000 (subject to certain
adjustments) of IBS common stock valued by the parties at $23.08 per share. The
combination has been accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. Accordingly, and
as discussed earlier, the Company's financial statements have been restated for
all periods presented to include the results of operations and financial
position of Spencer.
Dispositions
In October 1999, the Company approved a plan related to the sale of its
local Internet access business in Huntsville, Alabama to HiWAAY Information
Services, an Internet service provider (ISP) in Huntsville. Such sale was
consummated on October 22, 1999. The Company received $875,000 in connection
with this sale. The estimated loss on the sale of these assets is expected to
approximate $175,000 which will be recorded in the fourth quarter of 1999.
Private Placements & Warrants
In November 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company approved private
two placements of up to $10 million of defined units which consist of 1,000,000
shares of common stock and 250,000 warrants to purchase common stock. As of
December 8, 1999, the Company had raised $5.2 million in connection with these
private placements.
In October 1999, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with an
investment advisory firm in which the Company agreed to issue: (a) warrants to
purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $10.25 per share
and (b) warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price
of $11.25 per share upon the closing of certain mergers or acquisitions to be
identified. In the event the warrants are issued, the Company will realize a
non-cash charge to operations for the fair value of these warrants. The
period(s) that such charge will be recognized over will be determined based upon
the nature of the merger or acquisition involved, if any (that is whether the
merger is accounted for as a purchase or a pooling of interest).
Convertible Debt
In the third and fourth quarter of 1999, the Company raised $600,000
through sales of convertible debt instruments (the "Convertible Debt"). The
Convertible Debt is convertible at the option of the Company at a price equal to
the price of the Company's next equity offering. The Company will exercise its
option to convert such instruments in December of 1999. When converted, holders
of the Convertible Debt would be entitled to receive warrants to purchase common
stock equal to 25% of any unpaid principal and accrued interest divided by the
average closing price (as defined) of the Company's common stock. The Company
expects to incur a non-cash charge relating to the conversion of the Convertible
Debentures. The ultimate amount of such charge will be subject to a formal
analysis of the fair value of the consideration received by the Convertible
Debenture holders upon conversion. Such charge could be material to the
Company's operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Board of Directors and Stockholders
IBS Interactive, Inc.
Cedar Knolls, New Jersey
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of IBS
Interactive, Inc. and Subsidiaries (formerly known as Internet Broadcasting
System, Inc.) as of December 31, 1997 and 1998 and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then
ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the
financial statements of Spectrum Information Systems, Inc. as of and for the
year ended December 31, 1997, which were combined with the Company's financial
statements as of December 31, 1997 and for the year then ended, which financial
statements reflect total assets of $147,000 as of December 31, 1997 and total
revenues of $411,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997. Those financial
statements were audited by another auditor whose report has been furnished to
us, and our opinion, insofar as it related to the 1997 amounts included for
Spectrum Information Systems, Inc. is based solely on the report of the other
auditor.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and
the report of the other auditor provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditor,
the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of IBS Interactive, Inc. and
Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1998 and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

IBS INTERACTIVE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998
NOTE 1- ORGANIZATION AND BACKGROUND
IBS Interactive, Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries provides a broad
range of computer networking, programming, applications development, Internet
subscriber access, Internet Web-site development, network consulting and network
installation services. Services are primarily rendered to businesses and
organizations, including governmental and not-for-profit entities. The Company
was incorporated under the name Internet Broadcasting System, Inc. and changed
its name to IBS Interactive, Inc. on March 10, 1998. The Company, a Delaware
corporation, has its main administrative office in Cedar Knolls, New Jersey,
along with regional offices throughout New Jersey, New York, Alabama and
Virginia.
RESTATEMENTS
Previously issued consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the
Company have been restated, as required by Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 16, "Business Combinations," to reflect the 1998 and 1999 business
combinations accounted for as poolings-of-interests (DesignFX Interactive, LLC
("DesignFX"), Halo Network Management, LLC ("Halo"), Spectrum Information
Systems, Inc. ("Spectrum") and Spencer Analysis, Inc. ("Spencer") (see Note 3).
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is recognized as services are provided to clients and subscribers. In
the event that there are significant performance obligations yet to be fulfilled
on consulting, design and installation projects, revenue recognition is deferred
until such conditions are removed.
For the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998, the Company recognized revenues
of $252,000 and $29,000 respectively, on projects in process. Such unbilled
amounts are included in accounts receivable, net, at December 31, 1997 and 1998,
respectively.
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
The Company accounts for its stock option awards to employees under the
intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Under the
intrinsic value based method, compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the
quoted market price of the stock at grant date or other measurement date over
the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company provides pro
forma disclosures of net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share as if the
fair value based method of accounting had been applied, as required by Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" ("SFAS 123").
The values ascribed to restricted stock awards are based on the fair value of
the Company's common stock at the date of the grant. The intangible asset
related to the value of the stock awards is amortized on a straight line basis
over the required service periods. The Company's liability related to such
awards will be converted to common stock and additional paid in capital upon the
formal issuance of the common stock.
WARRANTS
The fair values ascribed to warrants that were granted in connection with the
1997 Notes (see Note 6) have been capitalized and amortized, as interest
expense, over the expected life of the underlying debt.
INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes." Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax
consequences of "temporary differences" by applying enacted statutory rates
F-8
IBS INTERACTIVE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998
applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. Valuation
allowances are established against deferred tax assets when management concludes
that the realization of such deferred tax assets cannot be considered more
likely than not.
Through their acquisition dates, the owners of DesignFX, Halo, Spectrum and
Spencer elected, under the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
and applicable state code, to report their respective income for federal and
state income tax purposes as a limited liability or "S" corporation. Under those
regulations, the owners individually received the income tax provision or
benefit of their respective share of DesignFX's, Halo's, Spectrum's and
Spencer's net income or loss. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded a
provision or benefit for federal and state income taxes for the year ended
December 31, 1997 and from January 1, 1998 through the respective acquisition
dates of DesignFX and Halo. For purposes of reporting local income taxes,
Spencer was recognized as a cash basis taxpayer.
In future periods, the Company's consolidated income tax provision or benefit
will include the operating results of DesignFX, Halo, Spectrum and Spencer. As
such, the historical tax provision of the Company, as reflected in the
accompanying consolidated 1997 and 1998 statements of operations, is not
necessarily indicative of the tax provision or benefit that would have been
recorded had DesignFX, Halo, Spectrum and Spencer been acquired at the beginning
of 1997.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term
investments with an initial maturity date of three months or less from the
purchase date to be cash equivalents.
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to credit risk
consist primarily of a concentration of unsecured trade accounts receivables. At
December 31, 1997, three customers accounted for 46%, 14%, and 13% of total net
accounts receivable and at December 31, 1998, two customers accounted for 29%
and 11% of total net accounts receivable.
The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally
does not require collateral on accounts receivable. The Company monitors the
allowance for potential credit losses and adjusts the allowance accordingly.
During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company's allowance for doubtful
accounts was reduced by $43,000. The decrease was comprised of charged off
accounts totaling $39,000 and a reduction in the allowance (based on the results
of an assessment of the collectibility of outstanding balances) of $4,000.
At December 31, 1998, cash equivalents of $4,982,000 and $443,000 represent
investments in GE Capital Corporation commercial paper and short-term
obligations of the United States government, respectively.
The Company maintains substantially all of the machinery and communications
network equipment utilized in providing Internet access to customers at one
location.
SOURCES OF SUPPLIES AND VENDORS
The Company has multiple vendors, which provide data communications and Internet
access services to customers. Although management believes alternative
telecommunications and access facilities could be found in a timely manner, any
disruption or termination of these services could have a short-term adverse
effect on operating results. In addition, the Company is also dependent on
third-party manufacturers of hardware components to be used for resale. Failure
by manufacturers to deliver this equipment on a timely basis, or any inability
to obtain alternative sources, could have an adverse effect on operating
results.
Although the Company attempts to maintain multiple vendors for required
products, its modems, terminal servers and high-performance routers, which are
important components of its network, are currently acquired from limited
sources. In addition, some of the Company's suppliers have limited resources and
F-9
IBS INTERACTIVE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998
production capacity. If the suppliers are unable to meet the Company's needs as
it builds out its network infrastructure, then delays and increased costs in the
expansion of the Company's network infrastructure could result, which could have
an adverse effect on operating results.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are
computed primarily under the straight-line method over the assets estimated
useful lives, generally three years for computer equipment, five years for
office equipment and seven years for furniture and fixtures. Leasehold
improvements are amortized over the term of the related lease, generally three
to five years. Equipment under capital leases is amortized on a straight-line
basis over the terms of the leases, generally three years.
LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The Company follows SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of" ("SFAS 121"). In accordance
with SFAS 121, the carrying values of long-lived assets are periodically
reviewed by the Company and impairments would be recognized if the expected
future operating non-discounted cash flows derived from an asset were less than
its carrying value.
There were no impairment losses recorded in the years ended December 31, 1997
and 1998.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets are comprised primarily of goodwill, customer lists and other
intangibles arising from various acquisitions and deferred compensation
arrangements. Such asset values are amortized over periods of five to ten years,
and for deferred compensation arrangements over the period that such services
are rendered.
PENSION ACCOUNTING
The Company has adopted SFAS No. 132 "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and
Other Postretirement Benefits as it relates to a Spencer pension plan. The
provisions of SFAS No. 132 revise employers' disclosures about pension and other
postretirement benefit plans. It does not change the measurement or recognition
of these plans. It standardizes the disclosure requirements for pensions and
other postretirement benefits to the extent practicable.
ESTIMATED FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and
cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and
notes payable approximate the instruments' fair values due to the immediate or
short-term maturity of these financial instruments.
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic loss per share has been computed using the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company's diluted loss
per share includes the effect, if any, of unissued shares under options,
warrants and stock awards computed using the treasury stock method. In all
periods presented, there were no differences between basic and diluted loss per
common share because the assumed exercise of common share equivalents was
antidilutive. The assumed exercise of stock options and warrants, as well as the
issuance of common stock under compensation and acquisition agreements
(aggregating 674,549 shares at December 31, 1998), could potentially dilute
basic earnings per share.
The Company's 1998 pro forma basic loss per share (which assumes that the
proceeds from the initial public offering of common stock and repayments of
certain borrowings occurred on January 1, 1998), totaled $.09 per share.
USE OF ESTIMATES
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 at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
F-10
IBS INTERACTIVE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998
Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates include
the assumptions utilized in the development of the Company's allowance for
doubtful accounts, given its concentration of accounts receivable balances with
a limited number of customers. In addition, many of the Company's estimates and
assumptions used in the consolidated financial statements relate to the
Company's continued ability to deliver state-of-the-art technical and subscriber
services, which are subject to competitive market and technology changes.
It is reasonably possible that changes may occur in the near term that would
affect management's estimates with respect to the values of accounts receivable,
intangibles and fixed assets.
EFFECTS OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"),
which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments
and hedging activities. The Company is currently reviewing the effects of SFAS
133, if any. This statement will be adopted by the Company no later than its
year ending December 31, 2000.
NOTE 3 - BUSINESS COMBINATIONS (Also, see Note 16)
POOLINGS-OF-INTERESTS
On September 24, 1998, December 10, 1998, March 31, 1999 and June 30, 1999 the
Company acquired DesignFX, Halo, Spectrum and Spencer respectively, in business
combinations accounted for as poolings-of-interests. DesignFX, which engages in
the development and maintenance of Web-sites on the Internet, became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company through the exchange of 176,944 shares of
the Company's common stock (exclusive of the reserved shares discussed below)
for all of the outstanding membership interests of DesignFX. On December 9,
1998, DesignFX was formally merged into the Company. Halo, which engages in
full-service network solutions, including planning, installation and maintenance
services, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company through the exchange
of 180,866 shares of the Company's common stock (exclusive of the reserved
shares discussed below) for all of the outstanding membership interests of Halo.
Spectrum, which is a full-service provider of network and systems integration
solutions, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company through the exchange
of 145,456 shares of the Company's common stock (exclusive of the reserved
shares discussed below) for all of the outstanding shares of Spectrum. Spencer,
which is a provider of network consulting to a wide array of businesses, became
a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company through the exchange of 240,505 shares
of the Company's common stock(exclusive of the reserved shares discussed below)
for all of the outstanding shares of Spencer. The ultimate number of shares to
be issued to the former owners of DesignFX, Halo, Spectrum and Spencer is
contingent upon the resolution of specific and, to a lesser extent, general
financial matters. The Company has reserved 23,216, 38,365, 10,909 and 19,500 of
common shares for issuance to the owners of DesignFX, Halo, Spectrum and Spencer
respectively, pending the outcome of such matters. With respect to DesignFX and
Halo, the Company expects to reach agreement on the ultimate number of shares to
be issued in the year ending December 31, 1999. The accompanying financial
statements are based on the assumption that the Company, DesignFX, Halo,
Spectrum and Spencer were combined as of January 1, 1997 and, accordingly,
financial statements of prior years have been restated to give effect to the
combinations.
Summarized results of operations of the Company, DesignFX, Halo, Spectrum and
Spencer for the period January 1, 1997 through December 31, 1997 are as follows:

PURCHASES
ALLNET TECHNOLOGY SERVICES, INC.
On March 1, 1997, the Company acquired certain assets of AllNet Technology
Services, Inc. ("AllNet"), an Internet Service Provider, in exchange for $75,000
of cash and 13,378 shares of Company common stock in a business combination
accounted for as a purchase. The fair value of the shares issued in connection
with the acquisition approximated $52,000 and was based, in part, on the fair
market value of shares sold in the Company's 1996 private placement of common
stock (see Note 7). Of the total purchase price of $127,000, $65,000 was
allocated to equipment and the balance was assigned to various intangible
assets. The results of operations of AllNet are included in the accompanying
financial statements from the acquisition date forward. With respect to this
acquisition, the results of operations from January 1, 1997 through the
acquisition date were not material and, accordingly, pro forma operating results
are not presented.
JDT WEBWERX LLC
On January 1, 1998, the Company acquired certain assets of JDT WebwerX LLC
("JDT"), a business providing programming and applications development and
Internet access, for $35,000 cash, in a business combination accounted for as a
purchase. Of the total purchase price of $35,000, $9,000 was allocated to
equipment and the balance was assigned to various intangible assets. The results
of operations of JDT are included in the accompanying financial statements for
the entire year ended December 31, 1998. With respect to this acquisition, the
results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 through the
acquisition date were not material and, accordingly, pro forma operating results
are not presented.
ENTELECHY, INC.
On January 31, 1998, the Company acquired substantially all the assets of
Entelechy, Inc. ("Entelechy"), in exchange for 277,434 shares of Company common
stock in a business combination accounted for as a purchase. The Company issued
147,310 shares at closing, and will issue an additional 130,124 shares (the
"Contingent Shares") over a three-year period on each of January 31, 1999, 2000
and 2001 to the former Entelechy stockholders. The issuance of such shares is
contingent upon the former Entelechy stockholders remaining in the continuous
employ of the Company. The total purchase price for Entelechy was based upon the
value of shares issued at closing and related acquisition costs. Goodwill
F-12
IBS INTERACTIVE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998
arising from the Entelechy acquisition totaled $828,000, and is being amortized
over a period of five years. The values ascribed to the Contingent Shares will
result in a charge to operations as such shares are earned through the Company's
years ending December 31, 2001. The related charge to operations for the year
ended December 31, 1998 totaled $180,000. Assuming the former Entelechy
stockholders remain in the continuous employ of the Company, the Company is
expected to incur a charge to operations of $197,000, $197,000 and $17,000 in
each of the years ending December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001, respectively. The
Company's liability for the values ascribed to these shares approximates
$591,000 and is included in "Deferred Compensation" in the accompanying December
31, 1998 consolidated balance sheet. Such liability will be reduced if and when
the shares are formally issued.
Entelechy had an outstanding demand note of $150,000 to a relative of one of
Entelechy's principals. The demand note did not bear interest and was converted,
subsequent to the consummation of the Company's initial public offering, into
25,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
The following summarized, unaudited pro forma information for the year ended
December 31, 1997 assumes that the acquisition of Entelechy had occurred on
January 1, 1997:

with eight individual investors (collectively, the "1997 Notes"). The 1997 Notes
accrued interest at a rate of 8% and were paid in full after the closing of the
Company's initial public offering of common stock. The outstanding principal
balance of the 1997 Notes amounted to $200,000 at December 31, 1997.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998
In connection with the issuance of the 1997 Notes, investors also received
warrants to an aggregate of purchase up to 48,872 shares of the Company's common
stock at an exercise price of $3.54 per share through October 2000 (see Note 7).
The Company capitalized the fair values ascribed to the warrants, which included
a value reflective of the excess of the initial public offering price less the
exercise price, as a deferred financing cost of $35,000 (included in "Other
Assets" in the accompanying December 31, 1997 balance sheet). Such costs were
amortized over the life of the 1997 Notes. Interest expense for the years ended
December 31, 1997 and 1998, including the amortization of the value ascribed to
warrants, totaled $22,000 and $45,000, respectively. The effective interest rate
on the 1997 Notes, which includes the amortization of the value of the warrants,
approximated 68% per annum.
DESIGNFX - DEVELOPMENT LOAN
In March 1997, DesignFX entered into an agreement with a bank to develop and
design the software and hardware for the bank's sites on the Internet and the
worldwide web. Provisions of the agreement provided for various advances to
DesignFX in order to provide working capital for expenses incurred with the
design and development of such web sites. In September 1998, this agreement was
terminated and a new agreement was executed. Terms of the new agreement provide

WARRANTS
As discussed in Note 6, the 1997 Note investors also received warrants to
purchase up to 48,872 shares of the Company's common stock. The 1997 Note
investors may exercise the warrants at any time through October 2000 at an

In November 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with an investment
advisory firm who will directly assist the Company in future acquisition
efforts. In return for services to be rendered, the Company has issued 50,000
warrants to such firm. The warrants will vest over the period of service if the
requisite number of acquisitions are consummated. The exercise prices of the

1997 and 1998, respectively.
In April 1998, the Company agreed to issue 20,000 shares of restricted stock to
an officer. The stock award vests over a four-year period; however, if certain
events occur, the unvested portion of the award will automatically vest. The

share price of the Company's common stock in its initial public offering.
Compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 1998 totaled $24,000. The
Company's liability for the values ascribed to these shares approximates
$114,000 and is included in "Deferred Compensation" in the accompanying December
31, 1998 consolidated balance sheet. Such liability will be reduced if and when
the shares are formally issued.

============ ============
A current benefit of $12,000 related to Entelechy acquisition costs was
recognized in the year ended December 31, 1998. The benefit reduced the carrying
value of goodwill arising from the acquisition.
Based on historical results of the Company and its acquisitions and estimated
1999 earnings, which includes earnings on certain consulting projects and the
effects of integrated operations of the Company, management considers
realization of the deferred tax assets generated from operations to be more
likely than not.
The acquisitions of DesignFX and Halo were deemed to be taxable among the
parties and, accordingly, the Company was required to revalue the tax bases of
the intangible assets of DesignFX and Halo. This revaluation resulted in an
excess of tax bases over carrying values. Based on an assessment of the
Company's ability to generate taxable income beyond the year ending December 31,
1999, the Company, upon the acquisitions of DesignFX and Halo, has established a
valuation allowance of $1,070,000 against the entire deferred tax asset, since
realization of the asset can not be considered to be more likely than not.
Management will perform periodic assessments of its ability to generate taxable
income and reduce the valuation allowance if realization of the asset is
considered more likely than not. For federal and state income tax purposes, the
Company will amortize this intangible asset over a period of 15 years.

All of these business combinations have been accounted for as purchases. The
ultimate values ascribed to the purchases are subject to certain adjustments
between the parties. The Company's 1999 acquisitions do not represent,
individually and in the aggregate, significant subsidiaries. Accordingly,
condensed and pro forma financial information is not presented.
As discussed in Notes 1 and 3, on March 31, 1999, the Company completed the
acquisition of Spectrum which provided for the exchange of all of the
outstanding stock of Spectrum for 145,456 shares of IBS common stock. Such
combination has been accounted for as a pooling of interests.
As discussed in Notes 1 and 3, on June 30, 1999. The Company completed the
acquisition of Spencer which provided for the exchange of all of the outstanding
stock of Spencer for 240,505 shares of IBS common stock. Such combination has
been accounted for as a pooling of interests.
Private Placements & Warrants
In November 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a
private placement of up to $10 million of defined units which consist of
1,000,000 shares of common stock and 250,000 warrants to purchase common stock.
As of December 8, 1999, the Company had raised $5.2 million in connection with
this private placement.
In October 1999, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with
an investment advisory firm in which the Company agreed to issue: (a) warrants
to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $10.25 per
share and (b) warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise
price of $11.25 per share upon the closing of certain mergers or acquisitions to
be identified. In the event the warrants are issued, the Company will realize a
non-cash charge to operations for the fair value of these warrants. The
period(s) that such charge will be recognized over will be determined based upon
the nature of the merger or acquisition involved, if any (that is whether the
merger is accounted for as a purchase or a pooling of interest).
Convertible Debt
In the third and fourth quarter of 1999, the Company raised $600,000
through sales of convertible debt instruments (the "Convertible Debt"). The
Convertible Debt is convertible at the option of the Company at a price equal to
the price of the Company's next equity offering. The Company will exercise its
option to convert such instruments in December of 1999. If converted, holders of
the Convertible Debt would be entitled to receive warrants to purchase common
stock equal to 25% of any unpaid principal and accrued interest divided by the
average closing price (as defined) of the Company's common stock. The Company
expects to incur a non-cash charge relating to the conversion of the Convertible
Debentures. The ultimate amount of such charge will be subject to a formal
analysis of the fair value of the consideration received by the Convertible
Debenture holders upon conversion. Such charge could be material to the
Company's operations.
