     BROCKER TECHNOLOGY GROUP LTD

     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999


1    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

a)   General

     Brocker Technology Group Ltd, ( "the Company" ), was incorporated under the
     Business  Corporation  Act (Alberta) on November 25, 1993, and obtained its
     listing on the Alberta Stock Exchange on April 14, 1994.

     On February  28, 1998 the  Company  transferred  its listing to the Toronto
     Stock Exchange.

     These  financial  statements  have been  prepared  in  accordance  with the
     generally accepted accounting principles of Canada.

b)   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 amounts  reported in the financial  statements
     and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)   Principles of Consolidation

     The consolidated  financial  statements include the financial statements of
     the Company and all of its  subsidiary  companies  since the dates of their
     acquisition.  Its wholly owned subsidiaries,  all of which are consolidated
     using the purchase method, are as follows:

     Brocker Technology Group (NZ) Limited
     Brocker Investments (Australia) Pty Limited
     Brocker Financial Limited
     Easy PC Computer Rentals Limited
     Image Craft Australia Pty Limited
     Industrial Communications Service Limited
     Powercall Technologies Limited
     Pritech Australia Pty Limited
     Pritech Corporation Limited
     Sealcorp Australia Pty Limited
     Sealcorp Computer Products Limited
     Sealcorp Telecommunications Group Limited
     1World Systems Limited
     Tech Support Limited

     At  March  31,2000  the  operations  of  Image  Craft  Limited,   Northmark
     Technologies Limited, and Photo Magic Limited were amalgamated with Brocker
     Technology Group (NZ) limited.

     During  the  1998  Brocker   Technology  Group  Ltd  took  a  20%  founding
     shareholding  in Highway  Technologies  Limited.  This  investment has been
     recorded using the equity method.

b)   Goodwill

     The  excess  of cost  over the fair  value of  identifiable  net  assets of
     subsidiaries  acquired  is  recorded  as  goodwill  and is  amortised  on a
     straight-line basis over its estimated useful life,  considered to be three
     to ten years.  On an ongoing  basis,  management  reviews the valuation and
     amortisation  of  goodwill  taking  into   consideration   any  events  and
     circumstances which might have impaired the fair value.

     Where an  acquisition  price is contingent on a future event or events,  no
     goodwill is recognised until the final  acquisition price can be reasonably
     determined.

     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999


2    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

c)   Foreign Currency

     Foreign currency  transactions are recorded at the exchange rates in effect
     at the date of settlement.  Monetary  assets and  liabilities  arising from
     trading are translated at closing  rates.  Gains and losses due to currency
     fluctuations on these items are included in the statement of earnings.

     The financial  statements of foreign  operations are translated to Canadian
     dollars  using  weighted  average  exchange  rates for the period for items
     included  in the  statement  of  earnings,  period end rates for assets and
     liabilities  included in the balance sheet and historical  rates for equity
     transactions. The cumulative translation adjustment represents the deferred
     foreign  exchange  gain  or  loss  on  the  translation  of  the  financial
     statements.

d)   Inventories

     Inventories  principally  comprise  finished  goods and are  carried at the
     lower of cost and net  realisable  value.  Cost is determined on a weighted
     average or first in first out basis.

e)   Capital Assets

     Capital  assets are  recorded  at cost.  Depreciation  is  calculated  on a
     declining balance basis (except for leasehold improvements where a straight
     line basis is used) using the following rates:

     Land                                                           0%
     Buildings                                                      2%
     Office equipment                                              20%
     Vehicles                                               20 and 26%
     Furniture and fixtures                                        20%
     Computer hardware                                       20 to 30%
     Computer software                                        30 - 40%
     Plant and Equipment                                      20 - 26%
     Leasehold improvements                               1 to 4 years
     Computer hardware held for rental                    2 to 3 years

f)   Revenue recognition

     The  Company  earns  substantially  all of its  revenue  for the  sale  and
     delivery  of  products  to its  customers.  Revenue  is  recorded  when the
     products are shipped to customers.

g)   Research and development expenditures

     Research costs, other than capital expenditures,  are expensed as incurred.
     Development  costs are  expensed as incurred  unless they meet the criteria
     under   generally   accepted   accounting   principles   for  deferral  and
     amortisation. Deferred development costs are amortised over the life of the
     developed product, currently a maximum of three years.

h)   Future Income Taxes

     Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.  Under
     this  method,  future tax assets and  liabilities  are  recognised  for the
     future tax consequences  attributable to differences  between the financial
     statement  carrying  amounts of existing  assets and  liabilities and their
     respective tax bases.  Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using
     enacted or substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply when the asset
     is realized or the liability  settled.  The effect on future tax assets and
     liabilities  of a change in tax rates is recognised in income in the period
     that substantive enactment or enactment occurs.

2    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

i)   Earnings Per share

     Earnings  per share  have been  calculated  based on the  weighted  average
     number of common shares  outstanding.  The fully diluted earnings per share
     have been calculated on the  assumptioin  that all vested options have been
     exercised.

     In both cases, common shares to be issued, or held in escrow, in respect of
     the settlement of earn-out  consideration  in relation to acquisitions  are
     only taken into account in the  calculation  of earnings per share once the
     number of shares can be reasonably determined.

j)   Stock Options

     The company has a stock option  plan.  When stock  options are issued,  the
     value of the  option  is not  determined  or  recorded.  Any  consideration
     received on the exercise of the stock option is credited to share capital.

k)   Cash and cash Equivalents

     Cash and cash equivalents  consist of cash on hand and balances with banks,
     and  investments  in money market  instruments.  Cash and cash  equivalents
     included in the cash flow  statement are comprised  solely of balances with
     banks.

3    ACQUISITIONS

     During the period the company invested  $207,210  (NZ$300,000) in Communica
     Limited.  Communica  Limited  is  involved  in the  provision  of Toll  and
     Cellular Services to its customers.  This investment is secured by way of a
     charge over the assets of Communica Limited.

4    CAPITAL ASSETS

     During the 1998 Brocker Investments (NZ) Limited have acquired new premises
     in Auckland,  New Zealand.  The $2.350M purchase price of this property has
     been settled by way of mortgage finance of $2,103,000

5    DEFERRED DEVELOPMENT COSTS

     As at June 30, 2000 development  costs of $1,597,504 have been capitalised.
     These costs principally relate to the development of software applications.

6    INVESTMENT IN ASSOCIATED COMPANY

     During  1998  Brocker   Investments   (NZ)  Limited  took  a  20%  founding
     shareholding in Highway  Technologies  Limited.  This Company has developed
     new  technology  capable of  providing  transport  and highway  management,
     operation and funding solutions.

     In addition to the  investment,  Brocker  Technolgy  Group (NZ) Limited has

     Earnings per share has been calculated on the basis of the weighted average
     number of common shares outstanding for the period.
