Stockholder
West-Tech Communications Corp.
Golden, Colorado:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of West-Tech Communications
Corp., as of December 31, 1998, and the related statement of operations and
retained earnings, and cash flow for the year then ended. 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 audit.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards required 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 West-Tech Communications Corp.,
as of December 31, 1998, and the results of its operations and cash flow for the
year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

West-Tech Communications Corp.
Notes to Financial Statements
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Nature of Operations
The financial statements presented are those of West-Tech Communications
Corp., (the Company). The Company was incorporated under Colorado law in
1986. Its principal executive offices are located at 17301 West Colfax
Avenue, Golden, Colorado 80401. The Company is engaged in sales,
installation and maintenance of telephone interconnect equipment throughout
the metro Denver area.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from direct equipment, installation and service sales is generally
recognized upon completion of the installation or upon completion of the
service provided by the Company for telephone systems, voice processing
products and related peripherals, since most contracts are completed as of
a period end. For significant projects not complete as of a period end, a
percentage of revenue and expense for the entire project is recognized
based on the estimated percentage of completion.
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 revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or
estimated market value and includes used and replacement stock items.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are reported at cost. Depreciation is computed over
the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method for
financial reporting purposes. Depreciation and amortization expense at
December 31, 1998 was $11,197.
Upon the disposition of assets, the related cost and accumulated
depreciation are removed from the books and the resulting gain or loss is
recognized in the year of disposition.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Bad debts are provided for using the allowance method based on historical
experience and ongoing evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable. Based
on the Company's collection experience, management determined no allowance
for bad debt was necessary for the year ended December 31, 1998.

Notes to Financial Statements
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Long-lived Assets
The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived
assets based upon the estimated future cash flows from the related asset.
Impairment would be recognized in operations if permanent diminution in
value occurs.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
to be an S corporation. Accordingly, in lieu of corporation income taxes
the shareholders of an S corporation are taxed on their proportionate share
of the Company's taxable income. Therefore, the Company has made no such
tax provision or recognized a liability for income taxes in the financial
statements.
Statement of Cash Flows
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less
cash equivalents.
(2) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment consists of the following at December 31, 1998:

</TABLE>
(4) Revolving Line of Credit
The Company entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with a bank
in December, 1998. The revolving line of credit permits the Company to
borrow up to $20,000. Interest, at the bank's reference rate plus 1.0% per
annum, is due monthly (8.75% at December 31, 1998). The revolving line of
credit is collateralized by chattel paper, accounts and general intangibles
of the Company and matures in May, 2000. At December 31, 1998 there were no
outstanding borrowings on the line of credit.
(5) Commitments
Operating Leases
The Company leases its primary office facilities, certain office equipment
and a vehicle under non-cancelable operating leases. The facilities lease
expires in October, 2001, the equipment lease expires in December, 2002 and
the vehicle lease expires in March, 2000. Future minimum lease payments for
these operating leases at December 31, 1998 are as follows:

==========
</TABLE>
Aggregate rental expense was $20,140 for fiscal 1998.
SEP Plan
The Company maintains a Simplified Employee Pension Plan (SEP) covering
substantially all employees who have completed two years of service. The
Company may make discretionary contributions not to exceed 15% of the
employee's compensation. The Company made contributions $5,415 to the SEP
during fiscal 1998.

Notes to Financial Statements
(6) Certain Risks and Concentrations
The Company's product sales and services are concentrated in the metro
Denver area and the telephone interconnect industry, which is highly
competitive and rapidly changing. Significant technological changes in the
industry could affect operating results adversely. The Company's
inventories include spare parts and components, which are specialized in
nature and subject to technological obsolescence.
At December 31, 1998, one customer accounted for approximately 22% of the
Company's total revenue. The Company does not believe the loss of this
customer in the near term would have a severe, material impact on the
Company's operations.
At December 31, 1998, one supplier accounted for approximately 54% of the
Company's total materials purchases. The Company does not believe the loss
of this supplier in the near term would have a severe, material impact on
the Company's operations.
(7) Subsequent Events
In October, 1999 certain assets of the Company, including the name West-
Tech, were sold and certain liabilities were transferred to IAC Acquisition
Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Communications World
International, Inc. (CommWorld). The Company received $559,000 in cash and
a promissory note in the amount of $370,000. In addition, the Company
received 270,000 shares of CommWorld's common stock.
Pro Forma Change in Lieu of Income Taxes
Prior to the sale of certain assets of the Company, West-Tech elected S
Corporation status for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The tax liability
associated with the Company's income during 1998 was the responsibility of
its shareholder. To reflect earnings on an after-tax basis, an unaudited
pro forma charge in lieu of income taxes has been included in the
accompanying Statement of Operations. The provision was computed as if the
Company was a C Corporation and responsible for its federal and state
income taxes. If the pro forma charge had been included in the provision
for income taxes in the accompanying financial statements, the resulting
effective rate would approximate the statutory rate in fiscal 1998.

(b) Pro Forma Financial Information (unaudited)
The following pro forma summary financial information has been prepared giving
effect to the acquisition of West-Tech Communications Corp. as if the
transaction had taken place at December 31, 1998 for the pro forma condensed
consolidated balance sheet and January 1, 1998 for the pro forma condensed
consolidated income statements for the year ended December 31, 1998.
The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase. The carrying values of
assets acquired have been estimated to approximate fair market value.
Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments to these amounts were made to reflect an
allocation of the purchase price.
The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results
of operations or the financial position which would have been attained had the
acquisition been consummated at the foregoing date or which may be attained in
the future. The pro forma financial information should be read in conjunction
with the historical consolidated financial statements Communications World
International, Inc. (CommWorld), is presented for informational purposes only
and does not purport to be indicative of the financial condition that actually
would have resulted if the acquisition had occurred at December 31, 1998.
