NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Nature of business and summary of significant accounting
policies
Nature of business - Dr. Abravanel's Formulas, Inc. was
incorporated on April 28, 1998, in the state of Nevada. The
Company was formed as a nutritional supplement development and
marketing corporation. The Company has developed products
specifically for the reduction or elimination of cravings in
people.
As a development stage company, management's efforts have been in
product development and marketing strategies.
Basis of presentation - The financial statements have been
prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principals.
Inventories - Inventories, which at February 29,2000, consisted
primarily of production supplies, are stated at the lower of cost
or market determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis.
Intangibles - Start-up costs, research and development costs and
formula costs are charged to the expense in the period incurred.
Income taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes under the
provisions of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS No.
109). Under the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future
tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to
apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under SFAS
No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date.
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 at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from
those estimates.
Per share information - Per share information has been computed
using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period.
Note 2 - Contract payable
Effective on April 28, 1998, the Company agreed to give
10,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $10,000,

directors may issue shares of the common stock in the form
of a distribution or distributions pursuant to a stock

qualifications, terms, limitations and restrictions pertaining to
the preferred stock, or any series thereof, shall be such as may
be fixed, from time to time, by the board of directors in its
sole discretion, authority to do so being hereby expressly vested
in the board.
Transfer restrictions - No sale, offer to sell, or transfer of
any common stock issued shall be made unless a registration
statement under the Federal Securities Act of 1933, as amended
with respect to such shares is then in effect or an exemption
from the registration requirements of said act is then in fact

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
TO THE STOCKHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
INFOTOPIA, INC.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Infotopia,
Inc.(a Division of National Boston Medical, Inc.) as of March 31,
2000 and the related statements of operations and cash flows for
the year ended June 30, 1999 and the nine months ended March 31,
2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Infotopia, Inc. as of March 31, 2000, and the results of its
operations and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 1999 and
the nine months ended March 31, 2000, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed
in Note 14 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered
recurring losses from operations and its limited capital
resources raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue
as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these
matters are also described in Note 14. The financial statements
do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2000
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Organization and Basis of Presentation
INFOTOPIA, INC. (Formerly Flex Marketing Inc.(OH)) (the
"Company" or "Infotopia") was incorporated under the
laws of Ohio in September 11, 1997. The Company was
acquired by its parent company, National Boston
Medical, Inc.("Parent"), in a share exchange agreement
executed on November 21, 1998 and operated as a division
of its parent from that time. The Company is to be spun-
off from its Parent in April 2000.
b) Business Operations
The Company engages in the development, marketing,
advertising and selling of innovative new wellness
products through direct marketing and response efforts.
Since its acquisition by the Parent, the Company has
expanded its line of products and is also producing its
own programming to promote its products.
c) 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 revenue and expenses during the periods
presented. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
d) Revenue Recognition
Infotopia recognizes product revenues upon shipment to
the customer. Sales are taken on the phone with
payments conducted by credit cards and check. Products
are often back-ordered and are not shipped immediately.
The Company recognizes these cash receipts as customer
deposits for sales that have yet to be completed.
e) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid
investments purchased with original maturities of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.
f) Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company places its cash in what it believes to be
credit-worthy financial institutions. However, cash
balances exceeded FDIC insured levels at various times
during the year.
g) Accounts Receivable
For financial reporting purposes, the Company utilizes
the allowance method of accounting for doubtful
accounts. The Company performs ongoing credit
evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance
for potential credit losses. The allowance is based on
an experience factor and review of current accounts
receivable. Uncollectible accounts are written off
against the allowance accounts when deemed
uncollectible.

relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations
over their estimated service lives, primarily on a
straight-line basis. The estimated service lives used
in determining depreciation are five to seven years for
computers, software, furniture and equipment.
Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter
of the useful life of the asset or the lease term.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred; additions and betterments are capitalized.
Upon retirement or sale, the cost and related
accumulated depreciation of the disposed assets are
removed and any resulting gain or loss is credited or
charged to operations.
k) Capitalized Production Costs
SFAS No. 53 "Financial Reporting by Producers and
Distributors of Motion Picture Films" requires the
capitalization of production costs and is to be
amortized over the useful life of the program.
l) Intangibles
Intangibles consist of goodwill, covenants not to
compete, customer lists and license costs. Goodwill
represents costs in excess of net assets acquired in
connection with businesses acquired. Goodwill is being
amortized to operations over 15 years. Customer lists
are being amortized over a period of 2 to 7 years.
License costs are amortized over 10 years.
Should events or circumstances occur subsequent to the
acquisition of a business which brings into question
the realizable value or impairment of the related
goodwill, the Company will evaluate the remaining
useful life and balance of goodwill and make
adjustments, if required. The Company's principal
consideration in determining an impairment includes the
strategic benefit to the Company of the particular
assets as measured by undiscounted current and expected
future operating income of that specified groups of
assets and expected undiscounted future cash flows.
Should an impairment be identified, a loss would be
reported to the extent that the carrying value of the
related goodwill exceeds the fair value of that
goodwill as determined by valuation techniques
available in the circumstances.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
m)
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided for based on the liability
method of accounting pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes". The liability method requires the
recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for
the expected future tax consequences of temporary
differences between the reported amount of assets and
liabilities and their tax bases.
n) Offering Costs
Offering costs consist primarily of professional fees.
These costs are charged against the proceeds of the
sale of common stock in the periods in which they
occur.
p) Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are
included in selling expenses. For the year ended June
30, 1999 and for the nine months ended March 31, 2000,
advertising expense amounted to $2,402,304 and
$1,709,676, respectively.
q) Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, accrued
expenses and income taxes payable approximate fair
value due to the relatively short maturity of these
instruments. The fair value of long-term borrowings
was determined based upon interest rates currently
available to the Company for borrowings with similar
terms. The fair value of long-term borrowings
approximates the carrying amounts at March 31, 2000.
r) Long-lived Assets
Long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the related carrying amount may not be
recoverable. When required, impairment losses on
assets to be held and used are recognized based on the
fair value of the assets and long-lived assets to be
disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying
amount or fair value less cost to sell.
t) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has adopted the intrinsic value method of
accounting for stock-based compensation in accordance
with Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and
related interpretations.

v) Impact of Year 2000 Issue
During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company
conducted an assessment of issues related to the Year
2000 and determined that it was necessary to modify or
replace portions of its software in order to ensure
that its computer systems will properly utilize dates
beyond December 31, 1999. The Company completed Year
2000 systems modifications and conversions in 1999.
Costs associated with becoming Year 2000 compliant are
not material. At this time, the Company cannot
determine the impact the Year 2000 will have on its key
customers or suppliers. If the Company's customers or
suppliers don't convert their systems to become Year
2000 compliant, the Company may be adversely impacted.
The Company is addressing these risks in order to
reduce the impact on the Company.

NOTE 14 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going
concern. As of March 31, 2000, the Company has a
working capital deficit of $10,961,526 and an

seeking additional equity and debt financing. There
can be no assurances that sufficient financing will be
