STARTRONIX INTERNATIONAL INC
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
----------------------
Prior to fiscal 1997, StarTronix International Inc. (the Company) was a
development stage entity. Developed exclusively for the Company, the StarScreen
is a combination telephone and Internet access portal. The Company obtained
Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") approval for the StarScreen, its
primary product, in January 1997. To minimize costs, the Company outsourced its
manufacturing. Immediately after obtaining FCC approval, the Company initiated
sales through its wholly owned subsidiary, StarTronix, Inc.
StarTronix International utilizes network marketing to sell its products.
The Company solicits individuals to be independent distributors to sell the
StarScreen and to solicit other individuals to become distributors. To become a
distributor, an individual must purchase a "Starter Kit" which contains
marketing material that describes the products available and explains the
distributor's compensation package. Distributors do not earn commission on
sales of starter kits; however, they do earn commission on sales of the
products. Additionally, they earn commission when any of their downstream
distributors sell products.
Because of the Company's inability to secure adequate resources March 1997,
the Company suspended its normal operating activity and focused its efforts on
the search for equity financing. The Company is in the process of reviving
operations and expects to be fully operational by fiscal 2000.
2. GOING CONCERN
--------------
The Company began sales of its primary product, the StarScreen,in January
1997; however, because of higher than expected upfront costs, the Company found
itself with insufficient financing to continue as a going concern. In March
1997, the Company was unable to meet its commitment to purchase StarScreen
inventory and forfeited the deposits it had placed with its manufacturer, Golden
Source Electronics Ltd., which is recorded as a loss in the accompanying
financial statements. Also in March 1997, the Company negotiated settlements
with some of its vendors, laid-off its employees, wrote-off all its assets,
abandoned its lease and suspended all operations except for the search for
additional financing.
In 1999, the President successfully negotiated a consulting contract with
Western Global Telecommunications, Inc. to upgrade the StarScreen to current
technological standards, to add certain new features to attract a wider customer
base, and to secure a manufacturer to supply the product. Between August 1999
and June 2000, the Company has raised approximately $1 million in cash and
received approximately $250,000 in services for common stock; the Company has
negotiated employment contracts with the Chairman, the President, and the CFO,
in addition to employment contracts with officers of its wholly owned
subsidiary, StarTronix.com.
Additionally, the Company has developed a business plan and is currently
talking with various vendors, manufacturers, and fulfillment houses to provide
services to manufacture, supply, and fulfill orders for an upgraded StarScreen.
FCC approval for the upgrades is in process. The management of StarTronix.com
has begun to develop market awareness for the re-launch of the improved
StarScreen and expects to begin enlisting independent distributors by October
2000. The Chairman and President are meeting with various existing and
potential investors and expect sufficient commitments so that the Company may
continue as a going concern. Additionally, management has rejected certain
offers with the belief that the deals they are currently negotiating will better
fit the Company's business plan. However, the Company has minimal capital
resources presently available to meet obligations that are normally required by
similar companies, and with which to carry out its planned activities. And, the
Company does not have "firm" commitments for financing. These factors raise
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. While
management believes actions currently being taken to obtain financing provide
the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, there is no
assurance that the Company will be successful in doing so.
<PAGE>
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis that contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company
continues to rely on its capital raising efforts to fund continuing operations.
These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded asset amounts or the amount of liabilities that might be necessary if
the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain
significant factors which have affected the Company's financial position and
operating results during the periods included in the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements.
THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997
Sales for the three month period ended December 31, 1998 were zero, as
compared to zero for the three month period ended December 31, 1997, due to the
suspension of operations by management of the Company effective March 31, 1997.
During the three month period ended December 31, 1998, the Company incurred
operating expenses of $311 resulting in an operating loss of $311, compared with
$130,484 and $130,484, respectively, for the three months ended December 31,
1997. This represents a decrease of 99% in both instances.
As a result of the above, the Company incurred a net loss of $7,811 for the
three month period ended December 31, 1998 as compared to $137,984 for the three
month period ended December 31, 1997, a decrease of 94%.
SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1998
Sales for the six month period ended December 31, 1998 were zero, as
compared to zero for the six month period ended December 31, 1997, due to the
suspension of operations by management of the Company effective March 31, 1997.
During the six month period ended December 31, 1998, the Company incurred
operating expenses of $19,709, resulting in an operating loss of $19,709,
compared with $721,512 and $721,512, respectively, for the six months ended
December 31, 1997. This represents a decrease of 97% in both instances.
As a result of the above, the Company incurred a net loss of $34,709 for the six
month period ended December 31, 1998 as compared to $736,512 for the six month
period ended December 31, 1997, a decrease of 95%.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES AT DECEMBER 31, 1998
During the six months ended December 31, 1998, and as described more fully
above, the Company's net loss was equal to $34,709.
Cash at December 31, 1998 was zero, as it was at June 30, 1998. As a
result of the Company's suspension of operations on March 31, 1997, there were
no other assets except for a deposit in the amount of $56,500.
As a result of the above, total assets at December 31, 1997 were $56,500 as
compared to $56,500 at June 30, 1998.
Current liabilities increased from $5,310,864 at June 30, 1998 to
$5,345,573 at December 31, 1998, an increase of 1%.
As a result of the above, the deficit in total stockholders' equity
increased from $5,254,364 at June 30, 1998 to $5,289,073 at December 31, 1998.
