Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements September 30, 1997
NOTE 1.
- -------
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the provisions of Regulation SB.
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 of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Certain reclassification and
restatements of prior year numbers have been made to conform to the
current years presentations, to report the acquisition of The Travel
Source, Ltd. as a pooling of interest and to exclude R&D Scientific since
the merger agreement terminated.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly owned subsidiaries, (CardCall International, DCI UK
Limited, CyberFax Inc., Privilege Enterprises Limited and The Travel
Source, Limited and Muller Media as if the stock purchase agreement with
Muller were completed. Material intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.
The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The
accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's form 10-K filed for the year ended March 31, 1997.
Income (loss) per share was computed using the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding.
NOTE 2. Acquisition of CardCall International Holdings Inc.
- -----------------------------------------------------------
On March 31, 1997, DCI Telecommunications, Inc. entered into an agreement
with CardCall International Holdings, Inc. ("CardCall"), a Delaware
Corporation, to purchase all its outstanding common stock (8,238,125
shares) and warrants. CardCall's board of directors had approved the
agreement on March 29,1997, subject to shareholder approval.
6
<PAGE>
CardCall is the parent company of CardCaller Canada, Inc., a Canadian
corporation, and CardCall (UK) Limited incorporated under the Laws of the
United Kingdom. CardCall is in the business of designing, developing and
marketing, through distributors, prepaid phone cards which provide the
cardholder access to long distance service through switching facilities.
DCI had previously invested $1,500,000 in CardCall for which it received
$1,200,000 in notes payable 120 days from demand. The remaining $300,000
did not have any stipulated repayment terms.
By May 29,1997, the shareholders of CardCall had approved the
transaction. For each 100 shares of common stock of CardCall held by a
shareholder, DCI will issue a warrant to purchase 9 shares of common
stock for $4.00 per share on or before February 28, 2001. In addition,
each shareholder of CardCall may acquire 85 shares of DCI common stock
under a subscription agreement for each 100 shares of CardCall held by
such shareholder, at a purchase price of $.20 per share. As of September
30, 1997, options for 223,500 shares of DCI stock had been exercised.
Such options expire on April 30, 2002. In accordance with the agreement,
shares of DCI stock received from the exercise of options has
restrictions on its ability to be sold ranging from September 1, 1997 to
November 1, 1998.
The transaction was recorded under the purchase method of accounting,
effective April 1, 1997. The total purchase price includes the $1,500,000
in cash, $2,545,000 assigned value for the stock and stock options, and
assumption of net liabilities of $3,918,000. Goodwill was recorded at
$7,963,000. The financial statements include the results of operations of
CardCall since April 1, 1997, the effective date of acquisition. The
goodwill is being amortized over 20 years. See Note 3 for explanation of
sale of a distribution contract of CardCall (UK) and discontinuation of a
portion of the operations. Revenues from the sale of prepaid phone cards
is recognized upon first usage of the card.
NOTE 3. Subsequent Event- Sale of Distribution Contract
- --------------------------------------------------------
In September, 1997, DCI Telecommunications, Inc. agreed in principal with
SmarTalk Teleservices, Inc. to sell its prepaid phone card distribution
contract with D Services, a wholly owned subsidiary of W.H. Smith, for
$9,000,000. DCI received $1,000,000 in cash at the closing and shares of
SmarTalk common stock worth $8,000,000 based on the price of SmarTalk
stock on the closing date. SmarTalk has agreed to file a registration
statement to register these shares upon request by DCI at any time after
March 30, 1998.
7
<PAGE>
A non-compete clause in the agreement will preclude DCI or its
subsidiaries from engaging in the prepaid phone card products business
through the distributor for a period of seven years. As a result,
operations to date for CardCall UK are shown as discontinued operations.
Operations of CardCaller Canada are shown as continuing operations.
The gain of the transaction is expected to be $3,078,421, after the write-
off of goodwill associated with the CardCall acquisition, and will be
recorded in the financial statements for the period ending December 31,
1997.
NOTE 4. Discontinuance of Computer Board Division
- --------------------------------------------------
In the second quarter ended September 30, 1997 the Company discontinued
the operation of its division that assembled computer boards that were
sold to a number of industries including education and government. In
conjunction with this event, unamortized customer base totaling $492,985
was written off and operating losses through September 30, 1997 of
$65,973 are shown as discontinued operations.
NOTE 5. R&D Scientific Corporation
- -----------------------------------
On June 19, 1995, DCI entered into an agreement to acquire the common
stock of R&D Scientific Corp. (R&D), a New Jersey Corporation, for 106,
250, shares (to be adjusted on or before December 31, 1997 for a value of
$1,700,000).
The Company had included R&D operations as part of the consolidated group
since June 19, 1995 as if the acquisition has been completed under the
purchase method of accounting. In the quarter ending December 31, 1997,
the parties mutually agreed to terminate the agreement, with R&D
reverting back to its original owners. As a result, no operations of R&D
are included in the financial statements, and all prior periods have been
restated to exclude the operations of R&D.
NOTE 6. Acquisition of Muller Media, Inc.
- ------------------------------------------
On November 26, 1996, DCI entered into a stock purchase agreement with
Muller Media, Inc. (Muller), a New York corporation, to acquire 100% of
the outstanding common stock of Muller in a stock for stock purchase,
with DCI exchanging one million two hundred thousand (1,200,000) shares
of common stock for all of the shares of Muller capital stock. The DCI
stock was valued at two dollars and fifty cents ($2.50) per share ($3
million in total).
8
<PAGE>
The shares of both companies have been deposited with an escrow agent.
DCI must repurchase the shares, if Muller exercises a "put" option which
commences on the earlier of 120 days from December 27, 1996, unless an
extension is requested by DCI, which Muller cannot unreasonably withhold,
or 14 days after DCI has received an aggregate of $3,000,000 in net
proceeds from the sale of its capital stock. An extension was granted by
Muller through December 31, 1997. The selling stockholders have an
option to keep DCI stock or accept up to $3,000,000 in cash from DCI.
Muller is a distributor of syndicated programming and motion pictures to
the television and cable industry. The acquisition has been accounted for
as a purchase.
NOTE 7. CyberFax
- -----------------
On April 9, 1997 the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of
CyberFax, Inc. for 400,000 shares of its common stock valued at
$1,015,000. Goodwill of $1,015,000 was recognized in this transaction and
is being amortized over 20 years. The acquisition has been accounted for
as a purchase. The financial statements include the results of operation
since April 9, 1997, the date of acquisition.
NOTE 8. Common and Preferred Stock
- -----------------------------------
During the six months ended September 30, 1997, the holders of 1190
shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock elected to convert into
common shares, resulting in the issue of 962,077 common shares. In
addition, options to purchase 590,000 common shares were exercised.
During the first six months the Company has raised approximately
$1,500,000 through the sale of its Convertible Preferred Stock.
NOTE 9. Unaudited Pro Forma Results

The following table summarizes unaudited pro forma results of operations
of the Company for the 6 months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
assuming the acquisition of CardCall, CyberFax, Muller Media, Travel

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
- --------
The following discussion and analysis provides information that
management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of DCI
Telecommunications, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the
Company), consolidated results of operations and financial condition for
the six months ended September 30, 1997. The discussion should be read in
conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and
accompanying notes.
The Company, since its recent acquisitions, operates predominantly in the
telecommunications industry providing a broad range of communication
service. The Company's services include long distance, cellular, prepaid
phone cards as well as real-time fax over the Internet. Through continued
investments and fiscal 1997 business acquisitions, the Company has
expanded its business into rapidly developing markets.
Recent Acquisitions
- -------------------
The acquisition of CardCall International and CyberFax in the quarter
ended June 30, 1997 were accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting under both U.S. and United Kingdom generally accepted
accounting principles. The Company believes that CardCall International,
CyberFax and DCI UK Limited, operating with the combined networks,
financial resources, management, personnel and technical expertise of the
Company, will be better able to capitalize on the world wide growth
opportunities in the telecommunications industry. In addition, the
Company expects these companies will be able to derive significant
advantages from the more efficient utilization of their combined assets,
management and personnel.
11
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
On December 30, 1994 and January 5, 1995 the Company acquired the assets
of Sigma Telecommunications and Alpha Products through the issue of
1,330,000 shares of common stock, and renamed the Company DCI
Telecommunications, Inc. The liabilities remaining from the former
Fantastic Foods International, Inc. at acquisition left the Company with
negative working capital and little financing capability. In June 1995
the Company acquired R&D Scientific and in November 1996 acquired Muller
Media, both through the issue of common stock. The acquisitions,
particularly Muller Media, greatly improved the Company's financial
position and at March 31, 1997 the current ratio was a positive 1.9 to 1
and cash on hand was $1,300,000. However, with the acquisition of
CardCall International in the quarter ended June 30, 1997, the Company's
current ratio dropped to a negative position.
A recent significant event was the sale of the prepaid phone card
distribution contract in the United Kingdom to SmarTalk Teleservices,
Inc., a U.S. company trading on NASDAQ, for $1,000,000 in cash and
$8,000,000 in SmarTalk common stock. The stock will be registered upon
DCI's request six months from the closing. The gain will be booked in the
quarter ended December 31, 1997 The proceeds will be a significant
benefit to liquidity in the future. Due to a non-compete clause in the
sales contract, CardCall UK has discontinued its phone card sales through
W.H. Smith in the UK. Since CardCall UK was a net user of cash, it is
expected that this will not have a negative impact on liquidity.
Cash used in operations was $1,800,000 in the six months ended September
30, 1997. The Company was able to overcome this shortfall by proceeds
from the sale of preferred stock of $1,400,000, and advances from
stockholders totaling approximately $400,000.
While CyberFax had limited operations during the quarter, it has secured
nine contracts in four countries for its real time fax to fax
transmission packages. Privilege Enterprises is embarking on a prepaid
cellular phone program. All of these programs will require significant
cash to finance the expansion plans.
The Company is continuing to pursue long-term financing for its
acquisition and expansion program. However, no assurance can be given
that additional financing will be available or, if available, that it
will be on acceptable terms. The ability to finance all new and existing
operations will be heavily dependent on external sources.
