NOTE 1-BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Interactive Gaming & Communications Corp. and Subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company's management believes that disclosures and information presented are adequate and not misleading.

NOTE 2- INTERIM PERIODS
In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial condition as of June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. The results of operations for the three months ended June 30,1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Second Quarter Ended June 30, 1999 & 1998
The Consolidated Statement of Operations for 1999 and 1998 reflect the results from continuing operations. The continuing operations for the Company as restated for those years and as discussed prospectively herein reflect licensing fees, royalties and other revenues earned from traditional advertising sources and Internet related development and design fees. Accordingly, such revenues for second quarter 1999 were $3,302,461 as compared to $68,620 for second quarter 1998. The increase in revenues for 1999 as compared to 1998 resulted from royalties generated by Intersphere Communications from software licenses, and consolidated revenues of newly acquired subsidiaries. However, Intersphere advertising revenues have increased in 1999. Expenses from continuing operations increased from $176,779 in second quarter 1998 to $1,344,813 in 1999, mainly as a result of the Company's acquisition of control of Century Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries. There was also a more efficient utilization of employee resources in the ongoing development of the Company's ToteMaster interactive internet horse racing and gaming software platform.
For the six month period ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 the consolidated statement of operations reflects an increase in revenues from continuing operations from $150,079 in 1998 to $6,642,722 in 1999. Expenses increased from $483,890 in 1998 to $2,565,920 in 1999. Consolidated operating income for the 1999 six months year to date was $878,707 as compared to ($333,811) in 1998. The revenue and expense increases are attributable to the Company's acquisition of control of Century Industries, Inc. as well as IGC's proportional increases. IGC's stand alone operating income was $513,481.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's consolidated current assets were $5,707,972 in 1999, an increase of $5,695,300 over the $12,642 in 1998. Current liabilities in 1999 were $4,449,197, and $1,324,143 in 1998, an increase of $3,125,054. The Company's working capital increased from a deficit of ($1,311,501) in 1998 to a surplus of $1,258,775, or 22% more current assets than current liabilities in 1999, a ratio greater than 1 to 1. The largest component increase in working capital was the Company's acquisition of control of Century Industries, inc. and subsidiaries. In addition, working capital increased as a result of the Company's receipt of a payment of $130,000 from Gamblenet Technologies, Ltd., on its note of $2,500,000.
The Company has written off its $4,990,000 note from the sale of the Company's former subsidiaries. However the company is in litigation and will recognize as revenue any award or settlement. The Company has available at June 30, 1999 approximately $421,000 of unused operating loss carry forwards that may be applied against future taxable income and that expire in various years from 2011 to 2013.
Under a promissory note payable to Madison Bank, the Company has a $200,000 line of credit available to fund working capital needs. As of March 31, 1999, the Company has utilized the line.
Further cost reductions and anticipated revenue growth from licensing and advertising revenues as described in the Prospective Outlook discussion that follows should contribute to further increases in working capital.
The Company acquired the control block of Century Industries, Inc. on June 23, 1999, for 7,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The terms of the acquisition also provide for the public Century shareholders to receive an offer equal to or better than that received by Century's control shareholders.
The Company further sold its original joint effort company with Century Industries, Inc., Gamblenet Technologies, Ltd. to Diversified Management Group Partners LP for $2,640,000. Gamblenet paid the Company $12,000 in the first quarter 1999, and subsequently paid an additional $128,000 in the second quarter 1999. Century also sold its Scibal Associates subsidiary for $1,800,000 in cash and notes, reflected in Century's 10-Q report.
Year 2000
The "Year 2000 Problem" arose because many existing computer programs use only the last two digits to refer to a year. Therefore, these computer programs do not properly recognize a year that begins with "20" instead of the familiar "19". If not corrected, many computer applications could fail or create erroneous results. The problems created by using abbreviated dates appear in hardware such as microchips, operating systems and other software programs. The Company's Year 2000 ("Y2K") compliance project is intended to determine the readiness of the Company's business for the Year 2000. The Company defines Y2K compliance to mean that the computer code will process all defined future dates properly and give accurate results. In September 1998, the Company formed a Y2K compliance committee which includes chief software writing personnel reporting directly to the President. Management of the Company believes that it has an effective program in place to resolve any Y2K issues and that all of its equipment and software are in compliance to address Y2K readiness. However, although management believes that the Company's systems and applications are Y2K compliant, there can be no assurance that the systems of other companies with which it does business will be Y2K compliant on a timely basis.
Inflation
Inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's comparative results of operations.
Prospective Outlook
Certain matters discussed in this section contain forward-looking statements, including without limitation, statements containing the Company's future revenue and earnings. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.
The Company will focus its efforts on software development such as a platform for Internet horse racing and licensing its proprietary products and exclusive licensing privileges for future revenues. The Company has effectively exited the Internet gaming business involving the acceptance of customers' wagers with the sale of its gaming subsidiaries Sports and Casinos in March 1998 and will be engaged principally in its gaming and entertainment software development business.
Century Industries, Inc. in Consolidation with its Subsidiaries
The first quarter 1999 results reflect the Company's continuing success at the operational level for both the Century Steel subsidiary and the Scibal Associates, but reflect a small consolidated net loss due to the costs of a failed underwriting effort to create a new subsidiary. During the second quarter the Company was successful in reducing parent overhead costs in an ongoing effort to do so.
Its consolidated assets were $8,785,026, in comparison to $9,696,583 at 12-31-98.
Consolidated second quarter sales were $2,734,894, in comparison to $3,366,761 at the same period in 1998. Consolidated operating costs decreased to $1,104,304 in the second quarter 1999 from $1,436,355 in second quarter 1998. The consolidated operating income was ($129,476) in 1998, whereas in second quarter 1999 it was $83,578. Century, as the parent holding company, has no operations of its own, and further delineation of sales and earnings is described later herein under each subsidiaries' results of operations section.
Year to date sales are $5,801,911, down from $6,436,813 for the same period in 1998. Gross profit through June 30, 1999 increased from $2,442,432 in 1998 to $2,603,816 in 1999. Operating income year to date for 1999 was $365,226, whereas operating income for the same period in 1998 was ($263,534).
The earnings per share was $(.01) for the second quarter of 1999, a $.02 increase over the ($.03) earned in the second quarter 1998. There was no additional share issuance in the second quarter from that indicated at December 31, 1998.
The Company and its subsidiaries have sufficient cash on hand, and liquidity from the cash flow of their accounts receivable, to continue to grow the profitability of their operations.
SUBSIDIARIES' SECOND QUARTER RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Century Steel Products, Inc. (CSP)
CSP's sales of $893,823 in 1999 were less than the $1,460,811 for the second quarter 1998 sales. CSP contributes this decrease in sales to its downsizing efforts as a means to achieve greater profitability.
CSP's trade debt was $753,030 in 1998 as compared to $706,520 in the second quarter of 1999. CSP considers this debt decrease as resultant from its downsizing efforts.
CSP's second quarter 1999 operating income was $(27,519), whereas its 1998 operating loss was ($134,058). CSP continues to reduce overhead costs while trying to develop a new and profitable customer base.
Year to date sales through June 30, 1999 were $2,048,056 and were $2,565,386 for the same period in 1998. Operating income through June 30, 1999 was $133,124, and for the same period of 1998 it was $76,945.
U.S. Insurance Brokers, Inc.
USIB was organized in April 1995 under the laws of the District of Columbia, has its domiciliary offices at 700 13th St., NW, Suite 950, Washington, DC 20007, and it has administrative offices at 11708 Bowman Green Drive, Reston, VA 20190.
To date, none of USIB's efforts to market group insurance plans to membership based groups have succeeded. Management is in discussion with regards to USIB's future, the disposal of USIB's assets, and a go-forward business plan for USIB.
Results of Operations
USIB's second quarter 1999 operating loss was ($190), and its 1998 operating loss was ($31,942). Year to date, USIB's operating loss was ($39,256), and for the same period 1998 was ($72,496). USIB's only expenses were to help defray some of the parent public company overhead costs.
Scibal Associates, Inc.
In 1996, the Company acquired DC Partners, Ltd. (DCP), with a home office situated in Somers Point, NJ, and branch offices in Edison, NJ, West Chester, PA, Livonia, MI, and Jacksonville, FL. Scibal Associates, Inc. (Scibal), formerly the wholly owned subsidiary of DC Partners, Ltd., is a Third Party Claim Administrator, investigating, adjusting and administering liability, workers' compensation and property claims on behalf of self-insureds and insurance companies. Scibal adjusts in excess of $65,000,000 worth of claims annually.
Scibal began operations in 1953. The Company offers its customers a complete range of services, including claim administration, adjusting, investigation and risk management, as well as a full complement of computer reporting required for program management.
Scibal presently employs over 100 personnel. None of the employees are represented by labor unions, so Scibal is not vulnerable to union demands or the threat of strike. Employee turnover is at a rate consistent with or lower than industry average, with the majority of the employees having been with the Company for many years.
While competition in the third party administration industry is substantial, it has evolved in the 1990s into an industry where the TPA must be hardware and software intensive. Scibal's unique software, which was developed internally and is therefore proprietary, allows for an extremely flexible delivery of reporting systems to its clientele. This software is supported by an experienced staff of computer programmers, who are continually improving and enhancing the proprietary claims handling software. Additionally, through its computer programmers, Scibal continues to write "next generation" software, which will take advantage of Internet access, electronic claims reporting, electronic medical payment processing, data warehousing, as well as various other value-added programs. This will enable the Company's personnel to increase production, thereby increasing profit margins while maintaining competitive pricing. The features and functionality offered are singular, which should provide Scibal with a substantial sales advantage in the future. Many of the new functions will be available for delivery in early 1999. Additionally, internal computer staff has commenced re-mapping of Scibal's software to ensure Year 2000 compliance, which will be completed prior in June of 1999.
The third party administration industry is directly affected by the current "soft" insurance market. This is an industry-wide issue which has, historically, had a tendency to run in cycles. Although many medium and large public entities and private corporations have opted to discontinue participation in self-insured/loss sensitive programs due to substantially reduced insurance costs, many believe that the market will begin to tighten throughout 1999, which will encourage both small and large entities to once again revisit insurance programs involving alternative risk financing, including either self-insurance, deductibles or retrospective ratings.
Scibal's customer base consists of organizations that participate in either self-insurance or alternative risk financing programs. A representative list of Scibal's clients includes hundreds of public entities, as well as many colleges, universities, health care institutions, real estate holding companies, electric authorities, various associations and entertainment related business.
In early 1999, Scibal was informed that a customer which generated approximately $400,000 per year in revenue would be utilizing their own "in-house" program during the second quarter of 1999. All other contracts which expired through the second quarter of 1999 have been renewed. The great majority of Scibal's revenue is generated from long standing customers, only one of which amounts to more than 5% of revenues for Scibal.
Being a service provider, there exists no dependence on any major supplier. Scibal employs approximately 110 persons. None of the employees are represented by labor unions.
Payroll expenses were reduced in the second quarter 1999 by $165,000 (annualized) from the first quarter, through operating efficiencies.
Results of Operations
Scibal's revenues of $1,819,995 for the 1999 second quarter were $86,966 lower than the second quarter of 1998 revenues of $1,905,950, a reduction of 4.5%.
Scibal's trade debt was $806,492 in 1999 as compared to $537,612 in the second quarter of 1998, an increase of 50%. Scibal's trade receivables at June 30, 1999 were $591,609, a 9.8% increase over the balance of $538,596 at June 30, 1998.
Scibal's second quarter 1999 operating income of $158,869 was $31,772 higher than the 1998 second quarter's operating income of $128,097, an increase of 25%.
Year to date revenues for Scibal of $3,731,263 were $140,164 lower than the six months of 1998 revenues of $3,871,427, a reduction of 3.6%.
Year to date 1999 operating income of $355,475 was $83,264 higher than the 1998 year to date operating income of $272,211, an increase of 30.6%.
Overall, the results of operations are a reflection of the tight market in conjunction with the continuing effort by management to generate operating efficiencies, as well as a refusal to cut prices below a profitable level in order to retain customers. As such, although revenues are down, operating income is increasing.
USIB Holdings Limited Partnership
USIB Holdings LP was formed in 1997 for the purpose of acting as an acquisition entity for insurance related entities.
This entity was formed as a Limited Partnership, with USIB as its General Partner, in order that the Company could utilize David Scibal's 727,273 Class B warrants, which he contributed as capital to the LP, as consideration for the proposed formation of the new insurance subsidiary, as capital. This was anticipated to reduce the potential dilution of the Company's shares after the securities underwriting which was planned for financing the new Florida insurance subsidiary. As this underwriting was withdrawn by the underwriter, the Company is considering "folding up" this limited partnership. Mr. Scibal, in effect, was willing to participate in the go forward profits as a 20% investor rather than exercise and sell the Class B shares underlying his warrant based upon his demand registration rights which originally attached to his warrants.
The USIB Holdings, LP is managed and operated by USIB as its General Partner, and thus the information regarding USIB as explained herein will again satisfy the informational requirements of the USIB Holdings, LP.
Results of Operations
USIB Holdings, LP had a second quarter 1999 development stage operating loss of ($34,843), and a year to date operating loss of ($75,242). This is due to the continued efforts by management to lower overhead parent public company costs.
This operating earnings loss is attributed to the failed formation of the proposed Florida property & casualty insurance company and the assumption of legal and accounting expenses associated with running the parent public company.
CONSOLIDATED LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's and its subsidiaries' primary sources of capital are their accounts receivable and their bank credit lines.
Consolidated accounts receivable were $1,873,774 at June 30, 1999, a decrease over its accounts receivable of $2,149,957 at June 30, 1998.
