Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1

Presentation of Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying  consolidated  financial statements include the accounts of IFS
International  Holdings,  Inc.,  a Delaware  Corporation,  and its  wholly-owned
operating subsidiaries, IFS International, Inc., a New York Corporation, Network
Controls  International,  Inc., a North Carolina  Corporation and Global Insight
Group,  LTD a corporation  organized  and existing  under the laws of the United
Kingdom.  All  significant  intercompany  accounts  and  transactions  have been
eliminated.  The  consolidated  balance  sheet  as  of  January  31,  2000,  the
consolidated statements of operations for the three months and nine months ended
January 31, 2000 and 1999 and the consolidated  statements of cash flows for the
nine months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999 have been  prepared by IFS,  without
audit. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (which include only normal
recurring  adjustments)  necessary to present  fairly the  financial  condition,
results of  operations  and cash flows at January  31,  2000 and for all periods
presented have been made.

On December  6, 1999,  our  stockholders  voted in favor of the  corporate  name
change to IFS International Holdings, Inc.

IFS adopted  Statement  of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 130,  Reporting
Comprehensive  Income ("SFAS No. 130") during 1999.  Comprehensive income (loss)
of IFS includes net income (loss),  adjusted for the change in foreign  currency
translation adjustments.  The net effect of income taxes on comprehensive income
(loss) is immaterial.  Total comprehensive income (the sum of net income and the
change in foreign  currency  translation  adjustment  amounts)  was $261,083 and
$292,293 for the nine months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Certain  information  and footnote  disclosures  normally  included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles
have  been  condensed  or  omitted.  It is  suggested  that  these  consolidated
financial  statements be read in  conjunction  with the  consolidated  financial
statements  and notes  thereto  included in our annual report on Form 10-KSB for
the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999.  The results of operations  for the period
ended January 31, 2000 are not necessarily  indicative of the operating  results
for the full year.

Note 2

Acquisitions

Global Insight Group LTD

On December 6th 1999, we entered into a Stock Purchase  Agreement to acquire all
of the  outstanding  shares of Global  Insight  Group LTD  ("GIG") and its three
operating  subsidiaries.  The consideration is payable entirely in shares of the
IFS'  common  stock.  The  transaction  is  structured  to provide for a minimal
payment of three shares of the our common stock at closing,  with  substantially
the  entire  consideration  to be  determined  based  on  the  future  financial
performance of the companies acquired.

In addition to the three shares  issued at the closing,  the purchase  price has
two components.

1). So-called `Buy-Out' which is measured by multiplying the net earnings of GIG
for  calendar  year 2000  (determined  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  but with certain  special  adjustments set forth in the
Stock Purchase Agreement) by four (4) and by issuing to the sellers (the current
shareholders  of GIG) common  stock of the IFS equal to the amount so  computed.
The  agreement  provides a collar  (lower limit and upper limit) on the price at
which the common shares will be valued.  The purpose of setting forth the collar
is to prevent undue dilution to the our existing  shareholders in the event of a
temporary drop in the price of the common shares during the computation period.

2). For the two  calendar  years of 2001 and 2002,  the  earnings of GIG will be
computed in the same fashion. The earnings in each years will be reduced by 50%,
and the  amount  so  calculated  will  then be paid  (year-by-year)  by  issuing
additional  shares of common stock of IFS. The  procedures for  calculating  the
share price and the collar  provisions  likewise apply to the issuance of shares
at the completion of each of the three years after the closing.

If and when the total  number of shares paid to the  sellers  exceeds a value of
$1.2  million,  then the formula  under  paragraph (2) above changes from 50% of
earnings  to 30% of  earnings,  which has the effect of  reducing  the number of
shares that IFS would be called upon to issue.

Network Controls International, Inc.

On January 30,  1998,  the merger of a wholly owned  subsidiary  of IFS with and
into NCI Holdings,  Inc.  ("Holdings")  was  consummated  pursuant to a Plan and
Merger  Agreement,  dated  January 30, 1998 (the "Merger  Agreement").  Holdings
owned approximately 94% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of
NCI, which develops and markets software  products for bank automation.  On June
1, 1998 NCI was merged into Holdings and Holdings  subsequently changed its name
to Network Controls International, Inc.

We  acquired  all of the  outstanding  shares of capital  stock of  Holdings  in
exchange for $1.11  million,  consisting  of $840,000 in cash and  approximately
$238,000 representing the fair market value of 87,094 shares of preferred stock.
Costs incurred in connection  with the  acquisition  approximated  $102,000.  In
accordance with provisions of the acquisition  agreement,  we initially recorded
the issuance of preferred  shares at an amount which considered an allowance for
equity  deficiencies of NCI. Pursuant to the acquisition  agreement,  additional
common shares may be issued if the  consolidated  pre-tax profits of NCI exceeds
certain  levels  during each of the three years ending April 30, 1999,  2000 and
2001 and during the three year period ending April 30, 2001. These issuances, if
any will be treated as additional  purchase costs. The acquisition was accounted
for as a  purchase  and  the  operating  results  of NCI  were  included  in the
consolidated financial statements commencing February 1, 1998.

In July 1998, we acquired the remaining  outstanding  shares of capital stock of
NCI for cash and stock valued at approximately $35,000.

In August  1998,  the Board of  Directors  voted in favor of waiving  the equity
deficiencies  clause in the Merger Agreement and allowances for preferred shares
were reversed.

In  October,  1999,  pursuant  to the terms of the merger  agreement,  we issued
1,051,716  shares of our common stock to Per Olof Ezelius,  one of our directors
and president of our NCI subsidiary, for the financial performance of NCI during
the fiscal year ended  April 30,  1999.  The shares  were  issued as  additional
contingent  consideration pursuant to the terms of the plan and merger agreement
dated January 30, 1998. Mr. Ezelius may receive additional  contingent shares in
future years based on the financial  performance of NCI through fiscal year 2001
pursuant to the plan and merger agreement.

Note 3

Earnings Per Share

Effective  April  30,  1998,  IFS  adopted  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128"), Earnings Per Share ("EPS"). SFAS 128 establishes
standards  for  computing  and  presenting  EPS.  The  statement   replaced  the
presentation  of Primary EPS with a presentation of Basic EPS, and Fully Diluted
EPS with Diluted EPS.

Note 4

Private Placement

On July 6, 1999, we sold $1,000,000 of convertible  promissory  notes. The notes
are due in July 2001 and  accrue  interest  at 10% per year.  Interest  does not
accrue  for a given  month if the value  weighted  average  stock  price for the
previous  month,  was at or above $3 per share or 90% of the lowest  daily value
weighted  average stock prices over a specified  period from 15 to 30 days prior
to  conversion.  The  purchasers  received  warrants to purchase an aggregate of
100,000  shares  of our  common  stock at an  exercise  price of $3.07 per share
subject to  dilution.  One  investor  and another  company  received  $75,000 of
additional  convertible  promissory notes and additional warrants to purchase an
aggregate of 100,000  shares of our common  stock.  The proceeds of the note and
warrant placement, after placement fees, were $965,000.

     Item 2 - Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition and
Results of Operations

The statements  below and certain other  statements  contained in this quarterly
report on Form 10-QSB are based on current  expectations.  Such  statements  are
forward  looking  statements  that involve a number of risks and  uncertainties.
Factors  that could  cause  actual  results  to differ  materially  include  the
following (i) general economic  conditions,  (ii) competitive market influences,
(iii) the  development  of the  capacity to  accommodate  additional  and larger
contracts,  (iv) adapting  TPII software  products to meet the demands of larger
EFT systems,  (v) continued acceptance of our software products by a significant
number  of  new  customers,   (vi)  our  continued  relationship  with  computer
manufacturers,  (vii)  acceptance  of NCI Business  Centre (TM) by a significant
number of new customers.

Introduction

We  are  engaged  in the  business  of  developing,  marketing,  automating  and
supporting  software for the EFT market.  Our revenues  have  resulted  from the
licensing of its family of TPII software products and from revenue from NCI. The
preparation of functional specifications, customization and installation of TPII
software  products  and  the  training  by IFS of  the  financial  institution's
personnel in the use of the TPII  software  products  takes an average of six to
twelve months, depending upon the timing of installation and final acceptance of
the EFT System by the customer. Completion of an NCI license agreement typically
takes an average of two to six months.  IFS' customers  generally pay 30% to 50%
of the project costs  including  licensing  fees upon execution of the licensing
agreement and also make progress  payments  prior to  acceptance.  NCI customers
typically pay the license fees upon installation of the product.  IFS recognizes
revenue  under the  percentage of  completion  method for software  installation
contracts.  The percentage of completion  method is measured by estimates of the
progress  towards  completion as determined by costs  incurred.  NCI  recognizes
software license revenue upon  installation and hardware revenues upon shipment.
We also derive recurrent revenues from furnishing certain  maintenance  services
to its customers for its products.  We may also receive additional  revenues for
additional training of customer personnel and consulting services  (collectively
"service  revenues").  With respect to revenues  for  maintenance  services,  we
generally  receive annual  payments at the beginning of the contract year.  Such
payments are reflected as deferred  revenues and are  recognized  ratably during
such year.

Results of Operations

Total revenues of $3,871,943 for the quarter ended January 31, 2000 represent an
increase of  $1,681,354  or 76.8%,  over total  revenues of  $2,190,589  for the
quarter  ended  January 31, 1999.  Total  revenues of  $10,092,607  for the nine
months ended January 31, 2000 represent an increase of $2,528,071 or 33.4%, over
total  revenues of $7,564,536  for the nine months ended  January 31, 1999.  The
increase  in total  revenues  is  primarily  a result of an increase in software
license and installation contract fees.

Software  license and  installation  contract  fees  increased by  $1,543,633 or
150.9% to $2,566,527  during the three months ended January 31, 2000 as compared
to $1,022,894 for the three months ended January 31, 1999.  Software license and
installation contract fees increased by $2,058,788 or 51.8% to $6,030,175 during
the nine months ended  January 31, 2000 as compared to  $3,971,387  for the nine
months ended  January 31,  1999.  The increase is primarily a result of sales of
the our latest product TP-CMS.

Revenues  from  licensing of software  products and hardware  sales in countries
outside the United  States  accounted  for 68% of total  revenues  for the three
months  ended  January 31, 2000 as compared to 86.6% for the three  months ended
January 31, 1999.  Revenues  from  licensing  of software  products and hardware
sales in countries outside the United States accounted for 85% of total revenues
for the nine  months  ended  January  31, 2000 as compared to 72.8% for the nine
months ended January 31, 1999.  The increase as a percentage  of total  revenues
resulted  primarily  from the  increase  in revenues  outside the United  States
generated  by IFS. We expect  total  revenues  from  foreign  countries  to be a
significant portion of its revenues in the future.

Gross profit, as expressed as a percentage of total revenues, decreased to 65.7%
for the quarter  ended  January 31,  2000,  as compared to 73.4% for the quarter
ended  January 31, 1999.  Gross  profit,  as expressed as a percentage  of total
revenues,  decreased  to 69.2% for the nine months ended  January 31,  2000,  as
compared  to 80.9% for the nine months  ended  January 31,  1999.  Gross  profit
expressed as a percentage of total revenues  decreased  primarily as a result of
royalties associated with distributors of TPII and TP-CMS as well as development
costs  associated  with TP-CMS.  These type of direct costs did not exist in the
corresponding period.

The excess of cost over fair value of assets  acquired in the NCI acquisition is
approximately  $1.2 million at January 31, 2000.  This amount is being amortized
on a straight  line basis over eight years.  Amortization  expense for the three
month  periods  ended  January  31,  2000  and  1999  was  $51,819  and  $12,699
respectively.  Amortization expense for the nine month periods ended January 31,
2000 and 1999 was $90,258 and $36,099 respectively. The increase in amortization
expense is related to the additional  goodwill  associated  with the issuance of
earn out shares pursuant to the merger agreement with NCI.

Software  costs  capitalized  for  the  quarter  ended  January  31,  2000  were
approximately  $228,000 as compared to  approximately  $239,000  for the quarter
ended January 31, 1999.  Software  costs  capitalized  for the nine months ended
January  31, 2000 were  approximately  $646,000,  as  compared to  approximately
$573,000 for the nine months ended January 31, 1999.  Capitalized software costs
relate to costs  incurred with respect to  electronic  funds  transfer  software
technology and the NCI Business Centre(TM)  product.  Such capitalized costs are
being  amortized on a straight line basis over the estimated five year marketing
lives of the software.

Net income was $85,401 for the quarter  ended January 31, 2000, as compared to a
net loss of $352,810  for the quarter  ended  January 31,  1999.  Net income was
$270,688 for the nine months ended  January 31, 2000,  as compared to net income
of $296,619  for the nine months  ended  January 31,  1999.  The increase in net
income for the quarter  resulted  primarily  from an  increase  in gross  profit
attributed to additional software license and installation  contract fees net of
an increase in operating expenses.

We have net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3,800,000 as of April
30,  1999.  Pursuant to the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and  subsequent  legislation,
utilization of these  carryforwards  may be limited due to the ownership  change
provisions as enacted by the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and subsequent legislation.

TP-CMS is IFS' newest addition to the our product portfolio. TP-CMS has recently
been  installed  at its first  location  and is being  marketed  worldwide.  The
product is an open  architecture  payment card  management  solution for credit,
debit,  electronic purse cards and biometric  identification.  Incorporating the
latest technologies available for information management,  TP-CMS enables IFS to
provide  a   complete   migration   of  a  bank's   payment   card   systems  to
state-of-the-art solutions.  Presently, there are several financial institutions
who have  contracted to have TP-CMS  implemented  in  conjunction  with TPII. We
believe that if the product is accepted by the EFT industry it could  contribute
significantly  to the  results of  operations.  However,  we can not provide any
assurance  that the product will be successful  and can not estimate the impact,
if any, on earnings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary source of funds has  historically  been its operating  revenue.  Our
working capital  increased from  $1,666,451,  at April 30, 1999 to $2,777,896 at
January 31,  2000,  primarily  due to the net  increase  in costs and  estimated
earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts.

We believe that  anticipated cash flow from operations and the availability of a
$600,000  line of credit  will be  sufficient  to finance  our  working  capital
requirements for the foreseeable  future. Our estimate is based upon its ability
to  obtain  licensing   agreements  through  our  IFS  subsidiary  as  currently
projected.  We may need additional financing if these revenues are not received.
However,  since a  portion  of  TPII  software  contracts  are  not  paid  until
acceptance by the customer  and, as a result,  we are required to fund a portion
of the costs of  configuration  and installation of such products from available
capital,  any substantial  increase in the number of  installations  or delay in
payment could create a need for additional  financing.  In such event, there can
be no assurance that additional  financing will be available on terms acceptable
to us, or at all.

QUARTER TO QUARTER SALES AND EARNING VOLATILITY

Quarterly revenues and operating results have fluctuated and will fluctuate as a
result of a variety of factors.  We can  experience  long delays (i.e.,  between
three to  twelve  months)  before  a  customer  executes  a  software  licensing
agreement.  These  delays are  primarily  due to  extended  periods of  software
evaluation,  contract  review  and the  selection  of the  computer  system.  In
addition  following  execution of the agreement,  the  preparation of functional
specifications,  customization  and  installation  of software  products and the
training by IFS of the financial  institution's personnel in the use of the TPII
software  products take an average of six to twelve  months,  depending upon the
timing of installation  and final  acceptance of the EFT System by the customer.
Accordingly,  our  revenues  may  fluctuate  dramatically  from one  quarter  to
another,  making quarterly  comparisons  extremely difficult and not necessarily
indicative of any trend or pattern for the year as a whole.  Additional  factors
effecting quarterly results include the timing of revenue recognition of advance
payments of license fees, the timing of the hiring or loss of personnel, capital
expenditures,  operating  expenses and other costs  relating to the expansion of
operations, general economic conditions and acceptance and use of EFT.

INFLATION

We have not  experienced  any  meaningful  impact  on its  sales or costs as the
result of inflation.

YEAR 2000

We believe that we have  successfully  completed  its Year 2000  activities.  No
events or issues  occurred  that have had a  material  effect on our  results of
operations or financial position.

We did not experience  any computer  programming  failures  related to Year 2000
that had a  material  effect  on  business  operations.  We are not aware of any
significant  problems experienced by our customers regarding the Year 2000 which
resulted in financial difficulties for them.

The estimated  costs of the Year 2000 issues did not have a  significant  impact
IFS' results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.
