eCHAPMAN.COM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2000

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

eChapman.com (eChapman) was formed on May 14, 1999, and is designed to bring
together the financial services capabilities of The Chapman Co., Chapman
Capital Management, Inc. and Chapman Insurance Agency Incorporated, while
taking advantage of the unique opportunities presented by the growth of the
Internet. eChapman's web site, eChapman.com, is currently under development.
The web site will offer both financial services and a variety of lifestyle,
educational and cultural content selected to appeal particularly to
African-Americans, Asian-Americans, Hispanic-Americans and women. These
groups are collectively referred to as Domestic Emerging Markets (DEM).

Effective June 20, 2000, Chapman Holdings, Inc., Chapman Capital Management
Holdings, Inc. and Chapman Insurance Holdings, Inc. merged into separate
wholly-owned subsidiaries of eChapman. Also, effective on June 20, 2000,
eChapman completed its initial public offering (IPO) of 1,260,000 shares of
common stock at $13 per share. eChapman received net proceeds of
approximately $12,257,000.

eChapman did not have any operations, except for organizational matters, up
until June 30, 1999. The operations of eChapman from July 1, 1999 to June 20,
2000 consisted mainly of costs incurred for salary and benefit expenses and
professional fees related to organizing eChapman and designing and developing
its web site. As of June 30, 2000, eChapman was in the preliminary stages of
designing and developing its website. These costs include conceptual
formulation, evaluation, technology requirements and vendor software and
consultant selection. These costs have been expensed as incurred in
accordance with SOP 98-1. During the three months ended September 30, 2000,
eChapman entered the development application stage and incurred costs such as
portal development and testing costs, which were capitalized. Once eChapman
enters the operational stage, costs for services will be evaluated, and
expensed as incurred or expensed over the contract period.


                                       6
<PAGE>


The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of eChapman, Chapman Holdings, Inc. (CHI) and its wholly owned
subsidiary, The Chapman Co., Chapman Capital Management Holdings, Inc. (CCMHI)
and its wholly owned subsidiary, Chapman Capital Management and Chapman
Insurance Holdings, Inc. (CIH) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Chapman
Insurance Agency (collectively, the Company). All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented on the accrual
basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
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 as of the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2000 are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, such
financial statements have been presented on the same basis as the audited
consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position and results of operations, for the periods.

As permitted under the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, these financial statements do not include all disclosures
normally included with audited consolidated financial statements, and
accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
notes thereto as of December 31, 1999, included in the Company's prospectus
dated June 15, 2000. The results of operations presented in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements are not necessarily representative of
operations for an entire year and because of the nature of the Company's
operations can be materially different between periods.

TREASURY STOCK

The Chapman Co. is a market maker for eChapman. However, as eChapman is the
parent of The Chapman Co., all purchases and sales of eChapman's stock by the
Chapman Co. have been accounted for as treasury stock transactions in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2000, the
Chapman Co. held approximately 1,743,000 shares of eChapman stock in
inventory.


                                       7

2. ACQUISITIONS

The merger of CHI, CCMHI, and CIH into wholly owned subsidiaries of eChapman
was accounted for using purchase accounting. The merger was accounted for as
a combination of entities under common control; thus, the portion of the
combined entities under common control (i.e. owned by the same stockholders)
was accounted for at historical cost, and the portion of the combined
entities not under common control was stepped-up in basis to the fair market
value at the date of the IPO. The step-up in basis generated approximately
$24.3 million in goodwill. The activity of CHI, CCMHI and CIH included in the
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements is only for the
period subsequent to June 20, 2000, the effective date of the mergers.

The unaudited pro forma summary consolidated results of operations for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, assuming the merger of CHI, CCMHI and
CIH had occurred as of January 1, 1999, are as follows:

ITEM 2--MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

Certain statements under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operation" and elsewhere in this report
constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause
the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company, or industry
results, to be materially different from any future results, performance, or
achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such
factors include, among others, general economic and business conditions in the
Company's market area, inflation, fluctuations in interest rates, changes in
government regulations, competition and the ability of the Company to implement
its business strategy and other risks discussed in the Company's Registration
Statement on Form SB-2 (File No. 333-90987) as it was declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, and in this and other reports filed by the
Company.

Forward-looking statements are intended to apply only at the time they are made.
Moreover, whether or not stated in connection with a forward-looking statement,
the Company undertakes no obligation to correct or update a forward-looking
statement should the Company later become aware that it is not likely to be
achieved. If the Company were to update or correct a forward-looking statement,
investors and others should not conclude that the Company will make additional
updates or corrections thereafter.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Company's consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere
in this document. The discussion of results, causes and trends should not be
construed to imply any conclusion that such result or trend will necessarily
continue in the future.

OVERVIEW

eChapman.com is a newly formed corporation designed to bring together the
financial services capabilities of The Chapman Co., Chapman Capital
Management, Inc. and The Chapman Insurance Agency Incorporated, while taking
advantage of the unique opportunities presented by the growth of the Internet
and online distribution. On November 15, 1999, eChapman.com entered into
separate merger agreements with Chapman Holdings, Chapman Capital Management
Holdings and Chapman Insurance Holdings. The initial public offering of
common stock of eChapman.com occurred on June 15, 2000, and as a result of
the mergers, which closed on June 20, 2000, eChapman.com indirectly controls
The Chapman Co., Chapman Capital Management and The Chapman Insurance Agency.
eChampan.com's common stock began trading on the Nasdaq National Market under
the symbol ECMN on June 20, 2000, and it commenced consolidated operations on
June 20, 2000.

Prior to September 1, 2000, eChapman.com was in the preliminary stages of
designing and developing its online network. The development effort, and
related costs incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2000,
included conceptual formulation, evaluation, technology and software
requirements, consultant selection and portal development.

Subsequent to September 30, 2000, eChapman.com launched the eChapman.com
network. The eChapman.com network is an interactive on-line community
offering both financial services and a variety of lifestyle, news, education
and cultural content.

attributed to smaller deal size. Commission revenue from the sale of retail
equities increased $20,000, or 2.3%, to $865,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 from $845,000 for the prior comparable period. Commission
revenue on sale of institutional securities increased $306,000, or 30.6%, to
$1,309,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $1,003,000 for
the prior comparable period. Commission revenue on fixed income securities
decreased $321,000, or 68.1%, to $150,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 from $471,000 for the prior comparable period. This decrease in
fixed income can be attributed to higher interest rates during the first nine
months of 2000.

        Underwriting and management fee revenue increased by $20,000, or 11.4%,
to $195,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $175,000 for
the prior comparable period. Underwriting and management fee revenue
increased by $166,000, or 30.0%, to $720,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 from $554,000 for the prior comparable period. The
increase in underwriting and management fee revenue reflects an increase in
management advisory services.

         Investment management fees revenue increased $392,000, or 39.5%, to
$1,385,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $993,000 for the
prior comparable period. Investment management fees revenue increased by
$1,031,000, or 33.8%, to $4,077,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
from $3,046,000 for the prior comparable period. The increase was primarily due
to a net increase of $149.3 million, or 21.7%, in assets under management to
$835.8 million as of September 30, 2000, from $686.5 million as of September 30,
1999.

     Interest and dividend revenue increased by $143,000, or 160.7%, to
$232,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $89,000 for the
prior comparable period. Interest and dividend revenue increased by $161,000,
or 57.3%, to $442,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from
$281,000 for the prior comparable period. These increases were due to higher
cash balances associated with the net proceeds from eChapman.com's initial
public offering of its common stock.

       The gain on trading decreased by $158,000, or 100%, to $0 for the
three months ended September 30, 2000, from $158,000 for the prior comparable
period. The gain on trading decreased by $328,000, or 207.6%, to a loss on
trading of $170,000 for the

                                       15
<PAGE>


nine months ended September 30, 2000 from a $158,000 gain on trading for the
prior comparable period. eChapman.com's loss on trading is attributable to a
decrease in the market value of its market making securities.

        Total expenses decreased by $1,228,000, or 30.5%, to $2,796,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 from $4,024,000 for the prior comparable
period. Total expenses decreased by $799,000, or 7.5%, to $9,857,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $10,656,000 for the prior comparable
period.

        Compensation and benefits decreased by $45,000, or 3.9%, to
$1,107,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $1,152,000 for
the prior comparable period. As a percentage of total revenue, these expenses
were 43.4% and 49.6%, respectively, for the three months ended September 30,
2000 and the prior comparable period. Compensation and benefits increased by
$521,000, or 16.0%, to $3,782,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 from $3,261,000 from the prior comparable period. As a percentage of
revenues, these expenses were 51.7% and 44.5%, respectively, for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 and the prior comparable period. Compensation
expense includes salaries and sales commissions paid to brokers, which varies
in relation to changes in commission revenue. The increase in compensation
and benefits is primarily attributable to the addition of 20 salaried
employees since the prior comparable period.

        Floor brokerage and clearing fees decreased by $63,000, or 36.2%, to
$111,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $174,000 for the
prior comparable period. Floor brokerage and clearing fees decreased by $81,000,
or 15.3%, to $447,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $528,000
for the prior comparable period. The decrease is mainly due to a decline in the
average dollar amount per transaction, as well as administrative cost reductions
realized as a result of changing clearing firms effective June 11, 1999.

       Management fees, which consist primarily of Chapman Capital
Management's payments to sub-advisors associated with its multi-manager
investment product, the DEM-MET Trust, increased by $72,000, or 19.5%, to
$441,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $369,000 for the
prior comparable period. Management fees increased by $164,000, or 14.8%, to
$1,273,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $1,109,000 for
the prior comparable period. These increases in management fee expense
largely reflect an increase in assets under management of the DEM-MET Trust
of $149.3 million, or 21.7%, to $835.8 million as of September 30, 2000 from
$686.5 million for the prior comparable period. Management fee expense as a
percentage of revenue increased to 17.4% for the nine months ending September
30, 2000 from 15.2% for the prior comparable period.

        Depreciation and amortization expenses remained unchanged at $352,000
for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. Depreciation and
amortization expenses increased by $14,000, or 1.3%, to $1,073,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $1,059,000 for the prior comparable
period. The increase was due to additional depreciable assets.

        Other expenses decreased by $1,192,000, or 60.3%, to $785,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 from $1,977,000 for the prior
comparable period. Other expenses decreased by $1,417,000, or 30.2%, to
$3,282,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $4,699,000 for
the prior comparable period. The decrease was primarily due to decreased
professional fees, printing expense, travel expense and conference and
seminar costs. The

                                       16
<PAGE>


decrease in these costs is the result of a change in business strategy from an
expansion and implementation effort to operations and service performance.

         Net loss decreased by $1,455,000 to $246,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 from a net loss of $1,701,000 for the prior
comparable period. Net loss decreased by $794,000 to $2,545,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 from a net loss of $3,339,000 for the prior
comparable period. Before depreciation and amortization, pro forma net income
would have been $106,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000, and
pro forma net loss would have been $1,349,000 for the prior comparable
period. Before depreciation and amortization, pro forma net loss would have
been $1,472,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and $2,280,000
for the prior comparable period.
