ITEM 1:  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

Arinco Computer Systems, Inc.,  incorporated in 1978 under the laws of the State
of New Mexico, and subsidiary is hereinafter  referred to as the "Registrant" or
the "Company". The Company is a NASDAQ Bulleting Board traded company.

The Company's principal offices are located at 1650 University Boulevard,  N.E.,
Suite  5-100,  Albuquerque,  New Mexico 87102 and its  telephone  number at that
location is (505)243-4949.

Company's Historic Development.

The Company was organized principally to serve its subsidiary operations,  which
have  included  activities  in the  telecommunications  industry  as well as the
retail sale of computer equipment.  Since 1988, the Company has essentially been
without operations. A more detailed discussion of the Company's history follows.

In 1983, the Company acquired a telephone inter-connect company which engaged in
selling  and   installing   telecommunications   equipment  in  commercial   and
governmental  facilities.  In 1987,  operations ceased when two creditors of the
telephone  inter-connect  subsidiary  received the assets of the Company under a
negotiated settlement due to default on the payment of secured obligations.

In 1985,  the Company sold its  interest in a computer  retail chain to a public
company  involved in a similar  business.  Upon the default of the  purchaser to
meet its cash and  securities  payment  obligations  to the Company,  a suit was
instituted and judgement was secured against the purchaser and guarantor for the
balance  owing on notes,  interest  thereon,  and attorneys  fees. In 1986,  the
purchaser filed bankruptcy and in 1987, the guarantor filed bankruptcy. In 1995,
the Company  received an interim  distribution  of  $284,000  from the  bankrupt
estate of the guarantor.  During 1996, a creditor petitioned the court to recall
the distribution.  See Item 3: Legal Proceedings for further  discussion of this
matter.

As a result of these  events,  the  Company  is  currently  without  operations.
Management is actively soliciting and pursuing  investment  possibilities in the
form of  acquisitions  of privately  held  businesses.  See Item 6  Management's
Discussion  and Analysis or Plan of  Operations  for  information  relating to a
definitive  agreement  signed on March 9, 2000 which  would  provide the Company
with additional working capital and a new line of business.

Employees.

The Company  currently has no employees who are  compensated  for their efforts.
The sole officer and director of the Company is employed  without  compensation,
but is  reimbursed  for all  out of  pocket  expenses  incurred  in  transacting
business  on behalf of the  Company.  The time  incurred by the  Company's  sole
officer and director is minimal based upon current activity.

ITEM 2:  DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.

The Company utilizes office space at 1650 University  Blvd.,  N.E., Suite 5-100,
Albuquerque, New Mexico 87102. The space utilized is minimal and it pays no rent
for its use. The Company's sole officer and director manages this property.


ITEM 3:  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Management  of the Company is not aware of any legal or  administrative  actions
now pending or contemplated against the Company, except as discussed below.

On March 31,  1986,  the Company  filed a lawsuit  against  Pathfinder  Computer
Centers Corporation and its organizers  (defendants)  seeking the balance due of
$450,000 on a note plus accrued interest  (guaranteed by Aaron D. and Jerilyn H.
Silver).  On February 14, 1990, the Company  settled the litigation and received
settlement proceeds in 1995 of approximately $284,000.

Subsequent to receipt of these settlement  proceeds,  a creditor whose claim had
been  disallowed in the  defendant's  bankruptcy  proceedings  was successful in
having the order  disallowing  its claim set aside. If the claim is subsequently
allowed,  the creditor could  petition the court to have the bankruptcy  trustee
recall the  settlement  proceeds;  however,  to date,  no action has been taken.
Management  believes court action requiring recall of the settlement proceeds is
unlikely; nevertheless, it is reasonably possible that such an event will occur,
although the amount of the recall cannot currently be estimated.


ITEM 4:  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

No matters were submitted during the fourth quarter of the 1999 fiscal year to a
vote of security holders, through solicitation of proxies or otherwise.


                                     PART II


ITEM 5:  MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

The Registrant's common stock has been listed on the NASDAQ Bulletin Board under
the symbol ARCU. The following table sets forth for the periods  indicated,  the
high and low bid  prices as  reported,  which  represents  inter  dealer  prices
without  adjustment for retail markups,  markdowns or  commissions,  and may not

There were  approximately 400 holders of the Registrant's  common stock on March
7, 2000.

The Registrant has never paid dividends on its common stock.


ITEM 6:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS.

Plan of Operation:

As the  Company has not had  revenues  from  operations  in each of the last two
fiscal years, the following represents  management's plans of operations for the
next twelve months.

The Company is presently  without revenues or cash flows from operations.  Based
upon current activity levels,  management believes that cash on hand and trading
securities are sufficient to meet the Company's cash  requirements  for the next
twelve months, which are expected to consist of general and administrative costs
incurred to maintain  good  standing as a publicly  traded  company,  unless the
transaction with Pangea Internet Advisors LLC is consummated, which is discussed
in more detail below.

On March 9, 2000,  the Company  entered into a definitive  agreement with Pangea
Internet  Advisors  LLC  ("Pangea"),  a private  investment  firm focused on the
acquisition  and management of internet and related  infrastructure  and service
technology businesses. The agreement provides for a cash investment of up to $40
million in  newly-issued  Company  preferred  stock by Pangea and certain  other
investors  to be  identified  by Pangea at a purchase  price on an as  converted
basis of $.25  per  share  of  Company  common  stock.  As part of the  proposed
transaction,  certain  investors  will  acquire  five- year  warrants to acquire
shares  representing 20% of the Company's common stock on a fully-diluted  basis
at varying exercise prices.

The proposed  transaction is expected to close by the end of March;  however, it
remains subject to certain closing conditions and no assurance can be given that
the proposed transaction will be consummated.

In the event this transaction does not close, management will resume its efforts
soliciting  and  pursuing  other   investment   possibilities  in  the  form  of
acquisitions  of  privately  held  businesses.  However,  it  should  be  noted,
management  is engaged on a full time basis in other  activities,  endeavors and
professions.  Considering  the  Company's  limited  resources,  there  can be no
assurance given that the Company will succeed in attracting another  acquisition
or merger prospect.

<PAGE>

The Company currently has no employees.


Year 2000 Issues:

Because of the limited activities of the Company, year 2000 issues were minimal.
The Company has not incurred any year 2000 problems  with its computer  hardware
and software, financial institutions or professional service providers, nor does
management expect to incur any future problems.

                 ARINCO COMPUTER SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
                  NOTES TO CONSILIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           December 31, 1999 and 1998



NOTE A - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Arinco Computer Systems, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of
the State of New  Mexico on March 31,  1978.  The  Company  is a  publicly-held,
over-the-counter  traded company that has had no business operations since 1988.
The Company's  activities consist primarily of paying general and administrative
costs.

Prior to the settlement of certain  liabilities of the Company in 1998 (Note C),
the Company  reported on the  liquidation  basis of  accounting;  however,  this
change in reporting  had no effect on the 1999 or 1998  financial  statements or
their presentation.

At present, the Company has no employees and is wholly dependent on the personal
efforts  of  its  officer  and  director,  who is  engaged  full-time  in  other
activities, endeavors, and professions.

A summary of the significant  accounting  policies  consistently  applied in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements follows.

1. Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of the Company and
its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  New Start,  Inc.  All  significant  intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated.

2.  Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Earnings  (loss) per common share has been computed  using the weighted  average
number of common  shares  outstanding  during each  period  after  deduction  of
preferred stock dividends, if applicable.  Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per
share are the same because the effect of  convertible  preferred  stock would be
antidilutive.

3.  Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers money market accounts to be cash equivalents.  The Company
maintains its cash and cash equivalents in accounts,  which may exceed federally
insured limits or may not be federally insured.  The Company has not experienced
any losses on such  accounts and  believes it is not exposed to any  significant
credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

4.  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;
accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
<PAGE>


5.  Securities

Trading  securities (cost of $127,000 and $79,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively) are bought with the intention of selling them in the near term and
are  carried at fair  value  with any  unrealized  gains or losses  included  in
earnings.  Cost is determined  by the average cost method in computing  realized
gains and  losses.  Unrealized  gains  (losses) of $16,000  and  ($30,000)  were
included  in  earnings  for  the  years  ended   December  31,  1999  and  1998,
respectively.


NOTE B - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company advanced $20,000 under a note receivable from a related party during
1999.  This  advance,  as well as $16,000  advanced in 1998,  was repaid in 1999
including interest at 8.5%.

The  Company's  investment  in equity  securities  consists of common stock of a
publicly  traded entity,  which is under common  control,  as the Company's sole
officer  and  director is also  President  and Chief  Executive  Officer of this
entity. These securities are classified as trading.


NOTE C - EXTINGUISHMENT OF LIABILITIES

The Company incurred certain  liabilities which could not be paid as a result of
unprofitable operations before 1988. During 1998, the Company reviewed these old
liabilities  and, upon advice from legal counsel,  determined  that  liabilities
totaling approximately $666,000 were no longer enforceable as claims against the
Company.  As a result of extinguishment of these  obligations,  an extraordinary
income item of $666,000 was recognized in the fourth quarter of 1998.


NOTE D - INCOME TAXES

The following is a reconciliation between the Company's tax provision to the tax
computed at the statutory federal rate:

                                               Year ended December 31,

As of December 31, 1999,  the Company has net operating loss  carryforwards  for
income tax purposes as follows:

    Expiration date
      2001                                     $  37,000

      2011                                        36,000
      2012                                        23,000
      2019                                         8,000
                                               ---------

                                               $ 410,000
                                               =========

The Company's  deferred tax assets and  liabilities  consist of the following at
December 31, 1999:

    Net operating loss carryforwards           $ 164,000
    Valuation allowance                         (164,000)
                                               ---------

                                               $      -
                                               =========

The valuation  allowance for deferred tax assets  decreased $9,000 and increased
$94,000,  respectively,  for the years ended  December  31,  1999 and 1998.  The
increase for 1998 was a result of an increase in prior years operating losses of
$340,000 and usage of prior year operating loss carryforwards of $246,000.


NOTE E - CAPITAL STOCK

The Company's preferred stock has full voting rights, accumulates $.06 per share
cumulative dividends annually,  and is convertible on a share-for-share basis to
the Company's common stock. Dividends on outstanding preferred stock are payable
annually  each May 31 beginning  May 31, 1985.  Preferred  stockholders  are not
entitled to payment of any accrued but unpaid dividends  existing at the time of
a voluntary conversion of such stock to common stock.


NOTE F - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Management  believes that certain  liabilities  formerly reported by the Company
are now time barred from collection and are no longer reported as liabilities of
the Company.

<PAGE>

NOTE G - SETTLEMENT OF LITIGATION

On March 31,  1986,  the Company  filed a lawsuit  against  Pathfinder  Computer
Centers Corporation and its organizers  (defendants)  seeking the balance due of
$450,000 on a note plus accrued interest  (guaranteed by Aaron D. and Jerilyn H.
Silver).  On February 14, 1990, the Company  settled the litigation and received
settlement proceeds in 1995 of approximately $284,000.

Subsequent to receipt of these settlement  proceeds,  a creditor whose claim had
been  disallowed in the  defendant's  bankruptcy  proceedings  was successful in
having the order  disallowing  its claim set aside. If the claim is subsequently
allowed,  the creditor could  petition the court to have the bankruptcy  trustee
recall the  settlement  proceeds;  however,  to date,  no action has been taken.
Management  believes court action requiring recall of the settlement proceeds is
unlikely; nevertheless, it is reasonably possible that such an event will occur,
although the amount of the recall cannot currently be estimated.


NOTE H - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following  methods and  assumptions  were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that
value.

1.  Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying  amount  approximates  fair value because of the short maturity and
highly liquid nature of those instruments.

2.  Trading Securities

The estimated fair values are based upon quoted market prices.

The  carrying  amounts  and  estimated  fair values of the  Company's  financial
instruments are as follows:
                                               Carrying      Estimated
                                                amount       fair value
                                               ---------     ----------

    Financial assets
      Cash and cash equivalents                 $ 133,000     $ 133,000

<PAGE>

NOTE I - SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On March 9, 2000,  the Company  entered into a definitive  agreement with Pangea
Internet  Advisors  LLC  ("Pangea"),  a private  investment  firm focused on the
acquisition  and management of internet and related  infrastructure  and service
technology businesses. The agreement provides for a cash investment of up to $40
million in  newly-issued  Company  preferred  stock by Pangea and certain  other
investors  to be  identified  by Pangea at a purchase  price on an as  converted
basis of $.25  per  share  of  Company  common  stock.  As part of the  proposed
transaction,  certain  investors  will  acquire  five- year  warrants to acquire
shares  representing 20% of the Company's common stock on a fully-diluted  basis
at varying exercise prices.

The proposed  transaction is expected to close by the end of March;  however, it
remains subject to certain closing conditions and no assurance can be given that
the proposed transaction will be consummated.
