We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Meridian Holdings, Inc. (MHC)
as of June 30, 2000 and the related statements of income for the quarter then
ended, in accordance with Statements of Standards of Accounting and Review
Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. All
Information included in these financial statements is the representation of the
management of MHC.
A review consists principally of inquiries of company personnel and analytical
procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an
audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our review was made for the purpose of expressing limited assurance that there
are no material modifications that should be made to the financial statements in
order for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Such information has been subjected to the inquiry and analytical
procedures applied in the review of the basic financial statements, and we are
not aware of any material modifications that should be made to it.

THE COMPANY
Meridian Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: Bulletin Board - MEHO) was incorporated under
the laws of the State of Colorado on October 13, 1998. The Company is an
acquisition-oriented holding company focused on building, operating and managing
a portfolio of business-to-business companies. Meridian seeks to acquire
majority or controlling interests in companies engaged in e-commerce,
e-communication, and e-business services, which will allow the holding company
to actively participate in management, operations and finances. Meridian's
network of affiliated companies is designed to encourage maximum leverage of
information technology, operational excellence, industry expertise and
synergistic business opportunity. Meridian is committed to building shareholder
value by positioning affiliated companies as independent business entities in
which Meridian shareholders enjoy equity participation.
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH MANAGING GROWTH
The Company's anticipated level of growth, should it occur, will challenge the
Company's management and its sales and marketing, customer support, financial
resources, research and development and administrative operations.
Additionally, with the acquisition of the intellectual properties of Sirius
Computerized Technologies of Israel, LTD, the company hired immediately 10
additional personnel and well as established a Research and Development
subsidiary known as InterCare MedMaster (Israel) LTD, based in Jerusalem,
Israel. The Company's future performance will depend in part on its ability to
manage rapid growth and to adapt its operational and financial control systems
to respond to changes resulting from any such growth. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to successfully manage any future growth
or to adapt its systems to manage such growth, if any, and its failure to do so
would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations.
LACK OF A PRESENT MARKET FOR SECURITIES
The Common Stock is currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, maintained by
under the Symbol: MEHO, and there is presently only a very limited market
for the Common Stock. Historically the spread between the bid and asked price of
the Company's Common Stock has been large reflecting limited trading in the
stock. The trading price for the Common Stock has fluctuated widely in the
recent past.
MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK
The Common Stock is traded on the Bulletin Board maintained by the National
Association of Securities dealers, Inc. under the symbol "MEHO." The Price
Range of the Company's Common Stock has varied significantly in the second
quarter ranging from a high bid of $4.65 and a low bid of $.81 per share.
The above prices represent inter-dealer quotations without retail mark-up,
mark-down or commission, and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.
SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
The Company had net working capital of $1,088,501 as at June 30, 2000 compared
to $337,185 during the second quarter ended March 31, 2000. This represents
an increase in working capital of 337.18%. This increase in working capital
is attributed to increase in enrolment of membership into Capnet IPA Network;
MedMaster software licenses sell, as well as expansion on new contracts
with one of the contracted health plans.
The selected financial data set forth above should be read in conjunction with
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and the financial statements notes thereto.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS:
The following section contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties, including those referring to the period of time the Company's
existing capital resources will meet the Company's future capital needs, the
Company's future operating results, the market acceptance of the services of the
Company, the Company's efforts to develop new products and services, and the
Company's planned investment in the marketing of its current services and
research and development with regard to future endeavors. The Company's
actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these
forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including: domestic
and global economic patterns and trends.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OF THE COMPANY.
On June 29, 2000, the registrant purchased all of the assets of Sirius
Computerized Technologies Limited (Israel), consisting primarily of intellectual
property and technology related to that company's software used in healthcare
management. The asset purchase includes the highly innovative intellectual
property commonly known as MedMaster and the associated Virtual
Multi-object-architecture Database (VMDB), as well as all components,
subsystems, source code and documentation. The purchase price was $2.7 million.
Additionally, with the acquisition of the intellectual properties of Sirius
Computerized Technologies of Israel, LTD, the company hired immediately 10
Additional personnel as well as established a Research and Development
subsidiary known as InterCare MedMaster (Israel) LTD, which is based in
Jerusalem, Israel. The Company's future performance will depend in part on its
ability to manage rapid growth and to adapt its operational and financial
control systems to respond to changes resulting from any such growth.
Long-term cash requirements, other than normal operating expenses, are
anticipated for the continued development of the Company's business plans. The
Company will need to raise additional funds from investors in order to complete
these business plans. There is no assurance that such funds will be available,
and even when available, the terms may be very prohibitive.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company generated revenues from operations of $751,315 during the
Second quarter ended June 30, 2000, compared to the revenues from operations of
$351,947 during same period in 1999. This represents an increase in revenues
of 213%. This increase in revenue is attributed to increase in enrolment of
membership into Capnet IPA Network and sales of Medmaster software program
licenses. Operating expenses for the period ending June 30, 2000 were $234,135
compared to $115,706 during the same period in 1999. This represents a 202%
increase compared to the same period in 1999. This increase operating expenses
is attributed to hiring of additional personnel and purchase of new equipment.
The Company recorded a net income from operations of $403,126 during the
three-month period ended June 30, 2000 compared to $71,122 during the same
period in 1999. This represents a 566% increase in net income. The increase
in net income is attributed to the increase in professional fees, sale of
MedMaster software, cost reduction and minimal use of outside consultants.
Management anticipates that general operating expenses will increase, as it
pursues, vigorously, its acquisition of new business opportunities and the
integration of the existing ones.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
On April 11, 2000, the Board of Directors approved the amendment of the article
of incorporation of the registrant, whereby the total number of authorized
