Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(INFORMATION AS OF June 30, 2000 AND FOR THE SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED
June 30, 2000 AND 1999 IS UNAUDITED)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
iEntertainment Network, Inc. (f/k/a Interactive Magic, Inc.) (or the "Company")
is a developer and publisher of Internet games and an operator of online game
services. The Company develops and publishes proprietary online multi-player
games and has built an Internet distribution infrastructure which offers online
gamers a variety of free, subscription and pay-per-play games and services,
including simulation, parlor, strategy, role playing and action games. Effective
December 30, 1999, the Company changed its name from Interactive Magic, Inc. to
iEntertainment Network, Inc.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
iEntertainment Network, Inc. (the "Company"), a North Carolina corporation, and
its wholly owned subsidiaries, iMagicOnline Corporation, iEntertainment Network
Ltd. and iEntertainment Network GmbH. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated.
While the financial information furnished is unaudited, the condensed
consolidated financial statements included in this report reflect all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which the Company
considers necessary for the fair presentation of the results of operations for
the interim periods covered and of the financial condition of the Company at the
date of the interim balance sheet. The results for interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. The condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
iEntertainment Network, Inc. consolidated financial statements and the notes
thereto, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended December 31, 1999.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue from pay for play online sales is recognized at the time the game is
played and is based upon actual usage by the customer on an hourly basis. The
Company records advertising revenues in the period the advertising impressions
are delivered to customers. The Company records advertising revenues net of
related administrative fees as reported by its outside advertising vendor. The
Company recorded barter revenue and expense under the criteria established by
EITF 99-17 "Accounting for Advertising Barter Transactions" of $61,000 and
$66,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, and $0
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999. Barter expense is treated as a
Sales & Marketing expense. The Company's advertising contracts do not guarantee
a minimum number of impressions to be delivered.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
REVENUE RECOGNITION (CONTINUED)
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission released Staff
Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements", which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and
disclosure of revenue in financial statements. SAB No. 101 provides guidance on
a variety of revenue recognition issues, including gross versus net income
statement presentation. The Company's 1999 quarterly reporting on Form 10-QSB
reported advertising revenues gross with related fees reported as selling and
marketing expenses. Based on the criteria of SAB No. 101, the Company has
retroactively reclassified its 1999 quarterly reporting to present its
advertising revenues net of these sales and marketing expenses. The total amount
reclassified for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 was $204,000 and
$257,000, respectively.
Revenue from CD-ROM product sales was recognized at the time of product
shipment. Revenue from royalties and licenses is recognized when earned under
the terms of the relevant agreements with original equipment manufacturers
("OEMs"), international distributors and other third parties. With respect to
license agreements that provide customers the right to multiple copies in
exchange for guaranteed amounts, net revenue is recognized upon delivery of the
product master or the first copy provided collectibility is probable. Per copy
royalties on sales that exceed the guarantee are recognized as earned. The
Company accepted product returns and provides price protection on certain unsold
merchandise. Revenue from CD-ROM product sales was recorded net of an allowance
for estimated future returns, markdowns, price protection and warranty costs.
Such reserves were based upon management's evaluation of historical experience,
current industry trends and estimated costs.
In October 1997, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee "(AcSEC)" issued
Statement of Position "(SOP)" 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition" as amended in
March 1998 by SOP 98-4 and October 1998 by SOP 98-9. These SOPs provide guidance
on applying generally accepted accounting principles in recognizing revenue on
software transactions. The Company adopted SOP 97-2 for software transactions
entered into beginning January 1, 1998. Based on the current requirements of the
SOPs, application of these statements did not have a material impact on the
Company's revenue recognition policies. However, AcSEC is currently reviewing
further modifications to the SOP with the objective of providing more
definitive, detailed implementation guidelines. This guidance could lead to
unanticipated changes in the Company's operations and revenue recognition
practices.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
REVENUE RECOGNITION (CONTINUED)
Revenue from certain software development contracts with fixed price components
is recognized on the percentage of completion basis in accordance with the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' SOP 81-1, "Accounting for
Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts." In
accordance with SOP 81-1, the Company recognizes percentage of completion
revenue based upon the ratio of accumulated incurred costs to the total
estimated costs to complete each contract.

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Costs incurred in the development of software for sale to customers are
capitalized after a product's technological feasibility has been established.
Capitalization of such costs is discontinued when a product is available for
general release to customers. Capitalized software development costs are
capitalized at the lower of cost or net realizable value and amortized using the
greater of the revenue curve method or the straight-line method over the
estimated economic life of the related product. Amortization begins when a
product is ready for general release to customers.
Information related to net capitalized software development costs is as follows

2. DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
In connection with the disposition of its CD-ROM assets, the Company decided to
terminate certain CD-ROM distribution agreements and began negotiations to
mutually release each partner from any obligation under the terms of these
agreements. In the second quarter of 1999, the Company estimated a liability of
$850,000 for potential settlements upon termination of these agreements. The
balance of this liability at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 was $195,000
and $692,000 respectively and is reflected as accounts payable and accrued
expenses in the consolidated balance sheets.
3. BUSINESS COMBINATION
On February 12, 1999, the Company completed the acquisition of MPG-Net, Inc.
("MPG-Net") by exchanging 600,000 shares of its common stock valued at
approximately $3.1 million for all of the outstanding common stock of MPG-Net
and issuing 150,000 shares of its common stock valued at approximately $800,000
in full settlement of certain debt obligations of MPG-Net. MPG-Net was primarily
in the business of developing, publishing and distributing interactive, real
time 3-D entertainment for multi-user online/Internet play, as well as creating
entertainment platforms on the Internet such as online game channels, game hubs
and websites. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 16, "Business Combinations" and,
accordingly, the operating results of MPG-Net have been included in the
Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The
excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair market value of the net
assets acquired of approximately $4.3 million is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 3 years.
4. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
On June 30, 2000 the Company issued 600,000 of its common stock for cash
totaling $600,000.
As of December 31, 1999, the Company had 4,911 shares of Series D redeemable
convertible preferred stock outstanding. These shares were redeemable at the
option of the holder until a registration statement registering the underlying
common stock necessary to effect a conversion of the Series D preferred stock,
became effective. A registration statement was filed and became effective in
March 2000 which removed the redemption feature that was outside the control of
the Company. Accordingly, the Company classified the Series D preferred stock as
permanent equity during the first quarter of 2000.
The Series D preferred stockholders are entitled to a 6% annual return on the
stated value of the preferred stock, upon liquidation, conversion, and
redemption within control of the Company. Accordingly, the Company has recorded
this return as accretion to the stated value of the preferred stock and a charge
to accumulated deficit. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, the
recorded accretion was $74,000 and $147,000. Accumulated accretion at June 30,
2000, and December 31, 1999 was $188,000 and $40,000, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999
OVERVIEW
During 1999, the Company implemented its revised business strategy focusing
future efforts solely on the Internet. As part of its plan, on June 30, 1999,
the Company received $2,500,000 from Ubi Soft Entertainment S.A. for the sale of
the rights the Company had for the development of certain CD-ROM games. The sale
of the development rights marked the Company's exit from the CD-ROM business.
The Company retained the online rights for these games. During the fourth
quarter of 1999, management of the Company began the process of closing its
European operations which historically had supported its CD-ROM business. The
three and six month financial statement comparisons are therefore heavily
impacted by the disposition of the CD-ROM business.
NET REVENUES
Net revenues increased by 159% to $ 2.0 million for the three months ended June
30, 2000 from $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. Net
revenues increased by 89% to $ 3.6 million for the six months ended June 30,
2000 from $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
The following table summarizes the changes in the components of revenue from
1999 to 2000:

Revenue for the period in 2000 $ 2,005 $ 3,557
=================== ==================
</TABLE>
The Company expects that, under its Internet only strategy, future revenues will
be derived primarily from advertising supported games and its pay for play
premium games.
COST OF REVENUES
Cost of revenues consists of costs of products sold (including cost of Internet
access) and royalties and amortization of software development costs. Cost of
revenues in the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2000 decreased to
$0.1 million and $0.4 million from $2.2 million and $2.7 million in the same
periods of 1999. The decreases were due primarily to the Company's exit from the
CD-ROM business.

OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
OPERATING EXPENSES
Operating expenses decreased by 46% to $ 2.4 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2000 from $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999.
Operating expenses decreased by 46% to $ 4.7 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 from $8.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

------------------ -------------------
Operating Expenses for the period in 2000 $ 2,354 $ 4,688
================== ===================
</TABLE>
SALES AND MARKETING
Sales and marketing expenses declined in both the three and six month periods
ending June 30, 2000 from the prior year's comparable periods due primarily to
the Company's exit from the CD-ROM business. The elimination of CD-ROM product
advertising expense and the reduction in personnel costs, offset increased
customer incentive and partner promotion expenses relating to our online
business.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
Product development expenses, especially staffing expenses, decreased in the
three and six month periods ending June 30, 2000 from the prior year's
comparable periods primarily due to the exit from the CD-ROM business. The
decreased expenses in the second quarter also included $0.3 million of
capitalized software development costs. The first six months of 1999 included
one-time charges for the write-off of costs associated with the exit from the
CD-ROM business including unamortized development costs of $0.6 million and
advance royalties on unreleased product of $0.5 million.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
General and administrative expenses decreased in the three and six month periods
ending June 30, 2000 from the prior year's comparable periods primarily due to
the consolidation of our worldwide operations to North Carolina. The Company
recognized significant reductions in facilities, employee and professional
expenses. The second quarter of 1999 also included a charge of $0.3 million from
our European operations associated with the exit from the CD-ROM business
<PAGE>
IENTERTAINMENT NETWORK, Inc.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
GOODWILL AMORTIZATION
Goodwill from the MPG-Net acquisition, acquired in mid first quarter 1999, is
being amortized to expense over 36 months. Goodwill from the Gamers Net
acquisition, acquired in third quarter 1999, is being amortized to expense over
24 months.
OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE
The change in other (income) expense in the three and six month periods ending
June 30, 2000 from the prior year's comparable periods is due primarily to: 1)
the inclusion in the first quarter of 1999 of the interest expense relating to
the recognition of the beneficial conversion feature of the $4,000,000
convertible debenture, and related warrants, which were issued in the first
quarter of 1999; as well as the interest expense on these debentures and 2) the
inclusion in the second quarter of 1999 of a $0.9 million gain related to the
exit from the CD-ROM business.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's capital requirements have been and will continue to be
significant, and, to date, its cash requirements have exceeded its cash flow
from operations. The Company historically has satisfied cash requirements
through cash generated from operations, borrowings, the private sale of equity

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)
The Company used $3.0 million less net cash in operating activities during the
first six months of 2000 compared with the same period in 1999. This decrease
was primarily due to exiting the CD-ROM business and increasing the focus on a
pure Internet strategy during 2000, resulting in reduced cash operating
requirements.
The Company's success is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash
flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing
or refinancing as may be required, and ultimately to attain profitability.
Management expects the disposition of its CD-ROM operations has and will
continue to reduce its operating losses and expects to be able to attract
additional capital, if needed, for its online operations. However, there can be
no assurance that management's plans will be executed as anticipated.
The Company believes that it has sufficient cash resources to fund the Company's
operations through at least the next twelve months. The Company does not have
any current arrangements or commitments for any future financing. The Company
may not be able to obtain sufficient additional financing to satisfy its cash
requirements. The Company may be required to obtain financing on terms that are
not favorable to it and its shareholders.
If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing when needed, it may be
required to delay or scale back product development and marketing programs in
order to meet its short-term cash requirements, which could have a material
adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company's forecast for the period of time through which its financial
resources will be adequate to support its operations is a forward-looking
statement that involves risks and uncertainties, and actual results could vary.
The factors described in the preceding paragraphs will impact the Company's
future capital requirements and the adequacy of its available funds.
EURO CONVERSION
On January 1, 1999, the European Community began denominating significant
financial transactions in a new monetary unit, the Euro. The Euro is intended to
replace the traditional currencies of the individual EU member countries. During
the fourth quarter of 1999 the Company decided to close its European operations
and therefore is not converting internal financial systems to the Euro as a
functional currency during this closure period.
