DATAWORLD SOLUTIONS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
DATAWORLD SOLUTIONS, INC., (the "Company") formerly known as Vertex
Computer Cable & Products, Inc. operates primarily in one business
segment - assembly and distribution of electronic wire, cable and
related products used primarily for data communication and
distribution. The principal market for the Company's products is in
the United States.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 and
the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in
stockholders' deficiency and cash flows for the three and six months
ended December 31, 1999 have been prepared by the Company without
audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include
only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the
consolidated financial position, results of operations and changes in
cash flows at December 31, 1999 and for all periods presented have
been made.
The comparative condensed statements of income for the three and six
months ended December 31, 1998 include only the operations of
DataWorld Solutions, Inc. ("DataWorld"). The results of operations
of Vertex Computer Cable & Products, Inc. ("Vertex") for the period
October 1, 1999 through December 16, 1999 are not included in the
comparative condensed results of operations since the merger (see Note
2) did not conclude until December 17, 1998. Certain information and
note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
omitted.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern which assumes
the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course
of businesss. For the six months ened December 31, 1999, the Company incurred
a net loss from operations of $125,611 and working capital of $730,891 is not
sufficient to fund the Company's operations. These factors raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
In December 1999, the Company received $250,000 from the issuance of a
subordinated debenture (see note 5) and in January 2000 the Company's lender
increased the Company's maximum borrowing limit to $5,000,000, as defined.

2. MERGER
On December 17, 1998, the Company, formerly known as Vertex Computer
Cable & Products, Inc., entered into an agreement with a privately
held distributor, DataWorld Solutions, Inc. ("Old DataWorld"), the
principal shareholders of DataWorld Solutions, Inc. who where Daniel
McPhee and Christopher Francis, TW Cable, LLC. and Edward Goodstein,
the Company's then chairman and principal shareholder. Pursuant to the
agreement, (i) Vertex acquired all the outstanding shares of Old
Dataworld in exchange for the issuance of 1,500,000 shares of the
Company's common stock (ii) TW forgave approximately $2,300,000 in
principal face amount of secured subordinated debt and all accrued
interest relating thereto, (iii) TW forgave $280,000 of indebtedness,
contributed $400,000 cash and arranged for approximately $400,000 of
TW funds held in escrow for the benefit of Vertex's creditors to be
released to such creditors as payment on behalf of Vertex in exchange
for 6,000 shares of the Company's newly issued $6 Senior Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock having a stated value of $100 per share,
and (iv) Messrs. McPhee and Francis purchased 17,000,000 shares of
the Company's common stock from TW for $200,000. As a result of the
above, Messrs. McPhee and Francis collectively own approximately 69%
of the Company's common stock and effective December 18, 1998 Messrs.
McPhee and Francis became the Company's Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Operating Officer, respectively. Thereafter, in May 1999,
Vertex, the surviving entity, merged with Old DataWorld and changed
its name to DataWorld Solutions, Inc. Further, in July 1999, the
Company's certificate of incorporation was amended to reflect a change
in the Company's par value for common stock from $.10 to $.001 per
share. Mr. McPhee became Chairman of the Board of Directors as a
result of DataWorld's purchase of the Vertex shares.
The merger was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting as
a reverse acquisition of Vertex by Old DataWorld. Accordingly, the
assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Vertex were recorded at
their estimated fair values of approximately $2,070,000 and $4,958,000,
respectively. On the date of the merger the fair value of Vertex's
liabilities (after considering the above mentioned forgiveness and
capital contributions) exceeded the fair value of net assets by
approximately $2,888,000. The comparative condensed statements of
income for the three months ended December 31, 1998 include only the
operations of Old DataWorld Solutions, Inc. for the three months ended
December 31, 1998. The results of operations of Vertex are not
included in the condensed results of operations since the merger (see
Note 2) did not conclude until December 17, 1998. Pro-forma financial
results as defined below, are presented in these notes and in
Management's Discussion and Analysis section, as if Old DataWorld and
Vertex had been combined as of the beginning of the applicable period
involved. This pro-forma information does not purport to be indicative
of what would have occurred had the acquisition, in fact, occurred on
the beginning date of the applicable period involved nor of results
that may occur in the future.

5. SECURED SUBORDINATED DEBENTURE
On December 16, 1999, the Company issued to a non-affiliated party a
Convertible Debenture for a principal amount of $250,000. The
debenture accrues interest at a rate of 2 1/4% over prime rate and is
payable semi-annually commencing on June 1, 2000. The entire principal
balance plus any accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable on
November 30, 2004 (the "Maturity Date"). In connection with the issuance
of the convertible debenture, the debenture holder was
granted warrants, expiring November 30, 2004, which shall permit the holder to
purchase up to a maximum of three hundred thousand (300,000) shares of the
Company's common stock at fifty ($.50) cents per share. The Company has
recorded the estimated fair value of the warrants (51,000) and will recognize
such amount as additional interest expense. Such warrants are exercisable until
the earlier of: (i) the Maturity Date, (ii) thirty (30) days after the
Company sends a notice to the debenture holder advising the debenture
holder that the principal balance of this Debenture will be automatically
converted to common stock of the Comapny at $1.00 per share or (iii) thirty
(30) days after the Company sends a notice to the debenture holder, as defined.
If at anytime prior to the Maturity Date, the common stock of the Company
reaches or exceeds an average bid price of $1.50 per share over a period of
thirty (30) consecutive business days, as quoted on any exchange or electronic
market on which the stock is regularly quoted, then the principal amount of the
debenture then outstanding shall automatically be converted into fully paid and
non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price
of $1.00 per share.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Six Months Ended December 31, 1999
Old DataWorld Solutions, Inc. was incorporated on January 7, 1998 and
commenced operations on March 1, 1998, therefore the Company can provide
limited comparative financial information with respect to the separate
results of Old DataWorld and Vertex. For the purposes of additional
comparative analysis, the Company has included in its Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements, pro-forma comparative results which
include the historical results of Vertex for all periods presented.
Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 1999 were approximately
$6,336,000. Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 1998 were
approximately $1,444,000. This increase is a result of Old DataWorld
merging with Vertex, as well as an increase in sales of distribution
products from Old DataWorld.
Gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 1999 was approximately
$1,571,000. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 24.8% for the six
months ended December 31, 1999. Gross profit for the period ended
December 31, 1998 was approximately $349,000. This increase in gross
profit is a result of increased sales volume in the current period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately
$1,318,000 or 20.8% for the six months ended December 31, 1999. For the
period ended December 31, 1998 selling, general and administrative
expenses were approximately $617,000. The increase is a result of Old
DataWorld merging with Vertex, which increased expenses for
administrative personnel, sales personnel, insurance expenses and
professional fees.
Interest expense for the six months ended December 31, 1999 was
approximately $218,000. This interest was incurred pursuant to the Company's
revolving credit facility.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Quarter Ended December 31, 1999
Old DataWorld Solutions, Inc. was incorporated on January 7, 1998 and
commenced operations on March 1, 1998, therefore the Company can provide
limited comparative financial information with respect to the separate
results of Old DataWorld and Vertex. For the purposes of additional
comparative analysis, the Company has included in its Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements, pro-forma comparative results which
include the historical results of Vertex for all periods presented.
Net sales for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 were approximately
$3,055,000. Net sales for the quarter ended December 31, 1998 were
approximately $1,104,000. This increase is a result of Old DataWorld
merging with Vertex, as well as an increase in sales of distribution
products from Old DataWorld.
Gross profit for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was approximately
$891,000. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 29.2% for the quarter
ended December 31, 1999. Gross profit for the period ended December 31,
1998 was approximately $198,000. This increase in Gross profit is a
result of increased sales volume in the current period as well as the
Company continued efforts to streamline costs and its enhanced purchasing
capabilities.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $747,000
or 24.5% for the quarter ended December 31, 1999. For the period ended
December 31, 1998 selling, general and administrative expenses were
approximately $459,000. The increase is a result of Old DataWorld
merging with Vertex, which increased expenses for administrative
personnel, sales personnel, insurance expenses and professional fees.
Interest expense for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was
approximately $118,000. This interest was incurred pursuant to the Company's
revolving credit facility.
13
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Financial Condition
As of December 31, 1999
Current assets at December 31, 1999 were approximately $4,142,000 and
working capital of approximately $731,000 at December 31, 1999. The
working capital at December 31, 1999 is not sufficient to meet the
Company's current liquidity needs. Under the Vertex Plan of
Reorganization, the Company is required to pay the unsecured creditors
under a payment arrangement. Currently the Company has not made its
required payment and is working to extend or modify the payment terms.
The Company is also exploring opportunities to further reduce operating
costs and to obtain additional sources of working capital. However,
there can be no assurances that new management will be successful in
further reducing operating costs or obtaining additional sources of
working capital.
The Company's revolving credit facility is providing availability based
on combined accounts receivable and inventory of the merged entities. As
of December 31, 1999, the Company was not in compliance with the original
financial covenants, however, on January 13, 2000, the Company's lender
amended the revolving credit facility and as of such date the Company is
in compliance with the terms of the agreement.
On December 16, 1999, the Company issued to a non-affiliated party a
Convertible Debenture for a principal amount of $250,000. The debenture
accrues interest at a rate of 2 1/4% over prime rate and is payable
semi-annually commencing on June 1, 2000. The entire principal balance
plus any accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable on November 30,
2004 (the "Maturity Date"). The debenture holder was granted warrants
which shall permit the holder to purchase up to a maximum of three
hundred thousand (300,000) shares of the Company's common stock at fifty
($.50) cents per share. If at anytime prior to the Maturity Date, the
common stock of the Company reaches or exceeds an average bid price of
$1.50 per share over a period of thirty (30) consecutive business days,
as quoted on any exchange or electronic market on which the stock is
regularly quoted, then the principal amount of the debenture then
outstanding shall automatically be converted into fully paid and non-
assessable shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price
of $1.00 per share.
YEAR 2000
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs, which were
written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year.
For example, date-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as
the Year 1900 rather than the Year 2000. Such misrecognition could
result in system failures, or miscalculations causing disruptions of
operations, including, among others, a temporary inability to process
transactions, send invoices or engage in similar normal business
activities.
14
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
YEAR 2000 (CONTINUED)
The Company has evaluated its programs to prepare computer systems and
applications for the Year 2000. The Company has replaced its internal
systems by acquiring a Year 2000 compliant system. The Company
estimates the replacement of hardware and software to cost approximately
$175,000. This cost will be accounted for as a capital lease in the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2000. The replacement project is in its
final stages. Notwithstanding the late arrival of Year 2000 compliant
software, the Company anticipates being Year 2000 compliant by December
31, 1999 and has provided stand alone software for its bill of material
(a detailed list of parts needed to build an end product) manufacturing
operations. The Company's manufacturing equipment is not data-sensitive
and therefore will not have any lapse in processing time. The Company
expects to incur additional internal staff costs as well as consulting
and other expenses related to any enhancements of the systems.
Management believes that the additional costs to enhance such
applications will not be material to the Company.
In addition, the Company has inquired with its major suppliers,
including insight about their progress in identifying and addressing
problems related to the Year 2000. The Company is currently unable to
determine the extent to which the Year 2000 issues will affect its
suppliers, or the extent to which it would be vulnerable to the
suppliers' failure to remediate any of their Year 2000 problems.
Although no assurance can be given, the Company believes that Year 2000
problems will not be significant.
