NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED (UNAUDITED) FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2000
NOTE 1. GENERAL
We are a provider of Internet system and network management solutions and
technology professional services for enterprises looking to operate in an
Internet-based environment. Through the ongoing development of our eNucleus
Platform Solution, we deliver the digital building blocks for businesses to
conduct electronic commerce over the Internet. Our eNucleus Platform Solution
provides an integrated environment which delivers high speed Internet transport,
licensed e-business enabling software and hosting.
We began business operations in 1987 in Colorado Springs, Colorado, as a
provider of computer systems and componentry. We adopted the name Nucleus, Inc.
in December 1998 and reorganized in April 1999 when Nucleus merged with Nucleus
Holding Corporation ("Holdings"), a privately-held Illinois corporation based in
Chicago, Illinois. At that time, we installed a new management team and
formulated our current goals and operating strategies. We now maintain our
headquarters in Chicago, Illinois.
On July 14, 2000 our shareholders approved our re-incorporation into
Delaware from Nevada and changing our name to eNucleus, Inc. from Nucleus, Inc.
The merger between Nucleus and Holdings was accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, our
consolidated financial statements have been restated for all periods prior to
the merger to include the results of operations, financial position and cash
flows of both eNucleus and Holdings. The accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2000 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 2000. For additional information with respect to eNucleus,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended
December 31, 1999 that are included in our annual report on Form 10-KSB.
NOTE 2. FINANCIAL RESULTS AND LIQUIDITY
We have only recently begun to execute on our business plan and face all
the risks common to companies in their early stages of development, including
undercapitalization and uncertainty of funding sources, high initial expenditure
levels and uncertain revenue streams, an unproven business model, difficulties
in managing growth and difficulties in managing operations offering different
products and services in different geographic locations. We have incurred net
losses of $6.1 million for the months ended June 30, 2000 and $8.3 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2000. Our recurring losses raise substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do
not reflect any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty. Our cash resources are presently not adequate for us to continue
operating. Unless we raise additional cash from outside sources over the next
several weeks, we will be unable to satisfy our obligations. We have engaged
Roth Capital Partners to raise permanent equity financing through a private
placement of securities dated May 30, 2000, but no assurances can be given that
we will be successful in raising additional funds to continue our operations. We
will continue to pursue long-term financial support including seeking strategic
investors, lenders and/or technology partners to execute our business plan.
Under any of these scenarios, management believes that our common stock would
likely be subject to substantial dilution. We believe that despite the financial
<PAGE>
hurdles and funding uncertainties going forward, we have under development a
business plan that, if successfully funded and executed, can enhance operating
results.
NOTE 3. SEGMENT INFORMATION
We operate our business and manage financial information collectively. We
report revenues, under the enterprise-wide disclosure requirements by: managed
services, communication services, professional services and sales of client
premise equipment. We have no separately reportable operating segments in
accordance with SFAS No. 131 and therefore do not report operations, identify
assets and/or other resources related to operating segments. The following table
shows the revenue components for 2000 and 1999:

</TABLE>
NOTE 4. FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
In the first quarter 2000, we issued 365,365 shares of our common stock for
$548,000 in cash. We paid a broker-dealer $9,000 in cash and warrants to
purchase 6,000 shares of our common stock at $1.50 per share related to certain
of these sales.
On March 21, 2000, we issued senior bridge notes in the aggregate principal
amount of $6,104,000. The notes were due on July 6, 2000 and pay interest of 12%
per annum on a monthly basis. We have elected to extend the maturity date of
these notes for another 120 days pursuant to the terms in consideration for
issuance of an additional 244,000 shares of our common stock. These notes are
now due on November 3, 2000. The note investors also received 1,692,172 shares
of common stock. If we raise additional equity capital prior to the maturity
date of the notes, the note investors may convert their notes into permanent
equity at the price per share for which such equity is sold or at the conversion
or exercise price per share if convertible securities or warrants are sold. If
we were to default on the payment of these notes the investors are entitled to
convert the notes at a price equal to the 21-day average stock price for our
common stock prior to the date of default.
Roth Capital Partners (formerly Cruttenden Roth Incorporated) acted as
placement agent for the senior bridge notes and received a cash fee of $610,400,
reimbursement for expenses of $115,000 and a 5-year warrant to purchase
approximately 170,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.625 per
share. We have engaged Roth Capital Partners in connection with future private
or public capital raising activities, for which we have negotiated fees payable
upon the closing of any such financings.
All of the shares and warrants issued in connection with the senior bridge
financing have registration rights.
<PAGE>
NOTE 5. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On May 24, 2000, in consideration of past and current personal guarantees
provided by John C. Paulsen on various obligations of eNucleus and for advancing
funds from time to time to eNucleus, Mr. Paulsen was provided the opportunity to
purchase 1,250,000 shares of our common stock at the then market price (as
quoted by NASDAQ) of $2.156 per share. eNucleus loaned Mr. Paulsen the full
amount of the purchase price for the stock. Mr. Paulsen has pledged the stock as
security for the loan. As of August 14, 2000, Mr. Paulsen has outstanding
personal guarantees of approximately $900,000 and loans of approximately
$200,000.
NOTE 6. ACQUISITIONS
On May 11, 2000, we completed the acquisition of WebNet.com, Inc. WebNet is
an Atlanta-based provider of dedicated Internet access and hosting solutions to
middle market companies. As acquisition consideration, we issued 661,000 shares
of our common stock to WebNet's shareholders and have agreed to issue an
additional 300,000 shares if the WebNet operation meets certain revenue targets.
WebNet shareholders also received a put option to require eNucleus to repurchase
60,000 shares at $5.00 per share on May 11, 2001.
The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase business combination,
and, accordingly has been included in our unaudited condensed statement of
operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2000 from the date of
acquisition. The purchase price of 661,000 shares, valued at $1,735,125, has
been allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities based on their respective
carrying values, as these carrying values (net value of $13,053) are deemed to
represent fair market value of these assets and liabilities. The allocation of
purchase price is preliminary, but we do not expect that the final allocation of
purchase price will differ significantly. Goodwill acquired recorded in
connection with the acquisition will be amortized over seven years.
The following unaudited pro forma data presents the combined results of
operations of eNucleus and WebNet as if it occurred at the beginning of the
periods presented. Such unaudited pro forma data do not reflect the effects of
any anticipated changes to be made by eNucleus in its operations from the
historical operations and are presented for informational purposes only and
should not be construed to be indicating (i) the results of operations or the
financial position of eNucleus that actually would have occurred had the
acquisition been consummated as of the date indicated or (ii) the results of
operations or the financial position of eNucleus in the future.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and related notes which are included under Item 1. Statements made
below which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties
including, but not limited to, our ability to raise the funds necessary to
finance our operations, our ability to successfully execute on our business
plan, competitive factors and other risk factors as stated in our other public
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
INTRODUCTION
We deliver the digital building blocks for businesses to conduct electronic
commerce over the Internet. Our eNucleus Platform Solution (eNPS) provides an
integrated environment which delivers high speed Internet transport, licensed
e-business enabling software and web hosting. We presently earn revenues from
the following product and service offerings: managed services, communication
services, professional services, and client premise equipment.
We recognize revenue for communication, managed and professional services
as services are performed. Clients are billed over the course of an engagement
at an hourly rate or on a recurring fixed-price basis. Billable rates vary by
the service provided and geographical region and typically range from $75 to
$275 per hour for professional services and $100 to $50,000 per month for
managed services.
Client premise equipment revenue is recognized upon shipment of equipment.
Our current strategy is centered on selling higher margin computer equipment and
infrastructure which is more strategic to our customer's ability to leverage the
Internet.
Client premise equipment comprised 79% and 19% of our revenue for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. ITS, acquired in 1999, has
historically operated as a reseller of computer equipment.
Cost of revenues includes the costs of services and material directly
related to the revenues, including direct labor and benefits, subcontracted
labor or other outside services, and other direct costs associated with
revenues, as well as an allocation of certain indirect costs, including the cost
to purchase computer and network equipment sold to clients.
Operating expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, and benefits
for our marketing, sales and support personnel, advertising costs, consultants'
fees, provision for doubtful accounts and other miscellaneous expenses.
Depreciation and amortization expense consists primarily of the
amortization of intangible assets recorded in connection with our acquisitions
and depreciation of our fixed assets. We expect these expenses to increase in
the future due to our plans to invest significant capital to expand our network.
GROWTH STRATEGY
Our growth strategy is primarily based on expanding our internal
capabilities through the additional hiring of personnel, by aggressively
expanding sales into our existing customer base and by penetrating new
customers. We expect to complement our internal growth by continuing to evaluate
acquisition opportunities whose higher margin service offerings can complement
our existing products and services and enable us to offer a more comprehensive
range of Internet-based technology solutions to our clients.
<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenue. For the second quarter 2000, revenues increased $1.8 million to
$2.5 million from $665,000 in the second quarter 1999. As a percent of revenue,
2% and 0% was derived from managed services, 8% and 65% was derived from
communication services, 11% and 16% was derived from professional services and
79% and 19% was derived from client premise equipment for second quarter 2000
and second quarter 1999, respectively.
Cost of revenue. For the second quarter 2000, cost of revenue increased
approximately $1.6 million to $2.1 million from $543,000 in the second quarter
1999. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased to 85% in the second
quarter 2000 from 82% in the second quarter 1999. The increases are due to
increased sales volume from client premise equipment and a decrease in sales of
communication services, which has higher margins.
Operating expenses. For the second quarter 2000, operating expenses
increased $1.1 million to $1.9 million from $776,000 in the second quarter 1999.
Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 76% in the second
quarter 2000 from 117% in the second quarter 1999. We acquired four companies in
1999. For the second quarter 2000, operating expenses associated with these
acquired companies approximated $779,000. Additionally, as part of our growth
strategy, we increased our employee base, back office support, and added
additional management to support the growth of the business. We expect that our
growth strategy will continue to require significant sales and marketing
activities, including an expansion of our sales force and further development of
brand name recognition. In addition, we will continue to build our personnel
base to support our growth strategy in the rapidly evolving industry of managed
services. As a result, we believe that our selling, general and administrative
expenses will continue to increase in the future.
Stock based compensation expense. For the second quarter 2000, stock based
compensation expense was $1,128,000. No stock based compensation was recorded in
the second quarter 1999. During 1999 and 2000, we granted stock options and/or
warrants to attract certain management personnel and/or advisors. These
options/warrants vest over periods ranging from zero to three years. As a
result, we incurred non-cash compensation charges and expect to continue to
record such charges in future periods until the compensation associated with
these charges have been fully amortized. We expect stock based compensation
expense to increase as we continue to offer equity incentives to attract
talented management and advisory personnel.
Depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization
expense increased $331,000 to $345,000 in the second quarter 2000 as compared to
the second quarter 1999. The increase was primarily a result of $338,000 in
amortization expense incurred from goodwill recorded with the purchase of our
acquired companies.
Interest and other expenses. Interest and other expenses increased to $3.2
million in the second quarter 2000. Of this amount, $129,000 relates to
penalties we incurred by not registering certain securities purchased from us on
June 2, 1999, while $2.8 million relates to amortization of the costs associated
with the common stock and warrants we issued in connection with our senior
bridge financing.
Net loss. Our net loss increased $5.5 million to $6.1 million in the second
quarter 2000 compared to a loss of $656,000 in the second quarter 1999. As
discussed above, the increased loss is attributable to growth strategy costs in
excess of current period revenue, additional depreciation and amortization
expense associated with acquisitions and non-cash interest expense incurred in
connection with our senior bridge financing.
<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of August 14, we have available cash of approximately $90,000. Unless
we raise additional cash from outside sources over the next several weeks, we
will be unable to satisfy our obligations. We have engaged Roth Capital
Partners to raise permanent equity financing through a Private Placement of
Securities dated May 30, 2000, but no assurances can be given that we will be
successful in raising additional funds to continue our operations.
Our working capital decreased by $1.9 million to $5.6 million at June 30,
2000, from a deficit of $3.7 million at December 31, 1999.
In January 2000, we issued 365,365 shares of common stock for $548,000 in
cash. We paid a broker-dealer $9,000 in cash and warrants to purchase 6,000
shares of our common stock at $1.50 per share related to certain of these sales.
On March 21, 2000, we issued senior bridge notes in the aggregate principal
amount of $6,104,000. The notes were due on July 6, 2000 and pay interest of 12%
per annum on a monthly basis. We have elected to extend the maturity date of
these notes for another 120 days pursuant to the terms in consideration for
issuance of an additional 244,000 shares of our common stock. These notes are
now due on November 3, 2000. The note investors also received 1,692,172 shares
of common stock. If we raise additional equity capital prior to the maturity
date of the notes, the note investors may convert their notes into permanent
equity at the price per share for which such equity is sold or at the conversion
or exercise price per share if convertible securities or warrants are sold. If
we were to default on the payment of these notes the investors are entitled to
convert the notes at a price equal to the 21-day average stock price for our
common stock prior to the date of default.
Roth Capital Partners (formerly Cruttenden Roth Incorporated) acted as
placement agent for the senior bridge notes and received a cash fee of $610,400,
reimbursement for expenses of $115,000 and a 5-year warrant to purchase
approximately 170,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.625 per
share. We have engaged Roth Capital Partners in connection with future private
or public capital raising activities, for which we have negotiated fees payable
upon the closing of any such financings.
All of the shares and warrants issued in connection with the senior bridge
financing have registration rights.
On May 24, 2000, in consideration of past and current personal guarantees
provided by John C. Paulsen on various obligations of eNucleus and for advancing
funds from time to time to eNucleus, Mr. Paulsen was provided the opportunity to
purchase 1,250,000 shares of our common stock at the then market price (as
quoted by NASDAQ) of $2.156 per share. eNucleus loaned Mr. Paulsen the full
amount of the purchase price for the stock. Mr. Paulsen has pledged the stock as
security for the loan.
On May 11, 2000, we completed the acquisition of WebNet.com, Inc. WebNet is
an Atlanta-based provider of dedicated Internet access and hosting solutions to
middle market companies. As acquisition consideration, we issued 661,000 shares
of our common stock to WebNet's shareholders and have agreed to issue an
additional 300,000 shares if the WebNet operation meets certain revenue targets.
WebNet shareholders also received a put option to require eNucleus to repurchase
60,000 shares at $5.00 per share on May 11, 2001.
During January and February 2000, we made net working capital advances
totaling $289,000 to certain creditors of SJI Corporation, which had entered
into merger discussions with us. On March 20, we notified SJI of our intent to
discontinue merger negotiations and demanded repayment of the advances. As of
June 30, 2000, $23,000 had been repaid. On July 27, 2000, we agreed to a
settlement with SJI, whereby we will receive $200,000 by August 10, 2000. As of
the date of this filing, we have not received these monies.
On July 23, 1999, we entered into a $500,000 secured demand loan agreement
(the "Loan") with Bank of America. The Loan is secured by our assets and the
assets of Mr. Paulsen, bears interest monthly at the rate of prime plus one
hundred basis points, with principal payable on demand. We have agreed with
<PAGE>
Bank of America to extend the loan, in exchange for us providing $250,000 and
$100,000 in cash collateral on September 1, and October 1, 2000, respectively.
The full balance of the Loan must be repaid no later than October 31, 2000. As
of August 14, 2000, the entire amount under the loan was outstanding.
Effective June 30, 1999, in connection with the acquisition of ITS, we
issued 1,000,000 shares of our common stock and a $1,000,000 subordinated note.
The note bears interest at the rate of prime plus one percent, and is secured by
375,000 shares of the common stock owned by Mr. Paulsen. The note, which was
originally due on October 8, 1999, was extended by ITS shareholders in
consideration for 100,000 additional shares of our common stock. The note had a
maturity date of June 30, 2000. We retired $610,000 of this note out of the
senior bridge financing. We are currently in default on the note, the remaining
balance of which approximates $466,000, including interest.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are from time to time a party to various legal actions arising in the
normal course of business. We believe that there is no proceeding threatened or
pending against us which, if determined adversely, would have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition of results of operations of eNucleus.
During 1998 we were notified of a collection action filed against us by one
of our former vendors in the amount of $117,000. On July 25, 2000, we entered
into an agreement to pay this vendor an aggregate amount of $80,000 in equal
installments over a 12-month period.
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On May 24, 2000, in consideration of past and current personal guarantees

funds from time to time to eNucleus, Mr. Paulsen was provided the opportunity to
purchase 1,250,000 shares of our common stock at the then market price (as
