                        MEDIALINK WORLDWIDE INCORPORATED
             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Basis of presentation

     The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by
the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These
condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the
Company's consolidated financial statements included in its Form 10-K filing for
the year ended December 31, 1996.

     The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein
reflect all adjustments (which include only normal, recurring adjustments) which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the results for the
nine and three month periods ended September 30, 1997. The results for the nine
and three month periods ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative
of the results expected for the full fiscal year.

(2) Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments

     Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and investments with original
maturities of three months or less. At September 30, 1997 cash and cash
equivalents consisted principally of various money market accounts and
commercial paper. Their cost approximated their fair market value.

     Short-term investments are marketable securities with original maturities
less than or callable within one year. The Company has classified all marketable
debt securities as held to maturity and has accounted for these investments at
amortized cost. At September 30, 1997, short-term investments consisted
principally of tax-free municipal bonds. The fair market value of these debt
instruments approximated the amortized cost.

(3) Acquisitions

     On June 16, 1997 Medialink acquired certain assets of Corporate TV Group,
Inc. ("CTV") for the initial purchase price of $4.0 million plus earn-out
provisions allowing for additional payments aggregating $6.2 million through
2002. CTV provides strategic video communications to corporations, and other

organizations, for internal and external audiences. The acquisition has been
accounted for as a purchase and the results of operations have been included in
the consolidated statement of operations from the date of acquisition. The
initial purchase price has been allocated primarily to the value of CTV's
customer list, which is being amortized over a period of 5 years. The following
summarized pro forma (unaudited) information assumes the acquisition had
occurred on January 1, 1997:

                                                       For the nine months ended
                                                              September 30, 1997
                                                              ------------------
    Net sales ...............................................       $22,435,000
                                                                     ===========

    Net income ..............................................       $ 1,952,000
                                                                     ===========

    Net income per common and common equivalent share .......       $       .37
                                                                     ===========

     On August 11, 1997 Medialink acquired all of the outstanding shares of On
Line Broadcasting Limited ("On Line"), a British corporation that provides live
radio and television public relations services. The initial purchase price of
approximately $330,000, including acquisition costs, was paid by the issuance of
21,995 shares of common stock, with a market value of approximately $10.50 per
share and approximately $99,000 in cash. The balance of the purchase price,
based on certain revenue and net income levels through December 31, 1997, will
be paid by the issuance of the Company's common stock.

     The On Line acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase for accounting
purposes, and its results of operations have been included in the consolidated
statement of operations from the date of acquisition. The estimated purchase
price in excess of the estimated fair value of the net tangible assets acquired
approximated $245,000 and is included in goodwill on the consolidated balance
sheet.

(4) Stockholders' Equity

     In July 1996, the Company effected a 1.2 for one stock split. In addition,
the Company restated its Certificate of Incorporation to increase its authorized
capitalization from 5,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.0l per share
("Common Stock"), to 15,000,000 shares. These changes resulted in an increase in
Common Stock and a corresponding decrease in additional paid-in capital. All per
share data and references to numbers of shares have been restated for all
periods presented to reflect these changes.


     On February 4, 1997 the Company completed a public offering of 2,000,000
shares of its common stock, at a public offering price of $9 per share (the
"Offering"). The net proceeds of approximately $15,600,000 to the Company from
the Offering are being used for general corporate purposes and acquisitions.
Concurrent with the closing of the initial public offering each share of the
Company's Series A, Series B and Series C cumulative convertible preferred stock
was automatically converted into 2,111,669 shares of Common Stock.

(5) Net income per share

     Pro forma net income per common and common equivalent share is calculated
using the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during
the period, plus Common Stock issuable pursuant to options granted under the
Stock Option Plans. Stock options granted during the twelve-month period
immediately preceding the initial filing date of the Company's Registration
Statement for its public offering were assumed to be outstanding for all periods
presented. In addition, shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of
all shares of Series A, Series B and Series C Preferred Stock into shares of
Common Stock are included in the calculation as if they were outstanding for all
periods presented. The weighted average number of common and common equivalent
shares outstanding during the nine month period ended September 30, 1997 and
1996, after reflecting a 1.2 for 1 stock split effective July 31, 1996, was
5,331,655 and 3,453,109, respectively, and the weighted average number of common
and common equivalent shares outstanding during the three month period ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996, after reflecting a 1.2 for 1 stock split effective
July 31, 1996, was 5,592,092 and 3,453,109, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to nine months ended September 30,
1996

     Revenues increased by $7.09 million, or 64%, from $11.16 million in the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 (the "September 1996 Period") to $18.25
million in the nine months ended September 30, 1997 (the "September 1997
Period"), primarily due to increased sales of production services, which
increased by $1.99 million, distributions services, which increased by $1.93
million, live broadcast services, which increased by $2.25 million and research
services which increased by $681,000. Included in the increase of distribution
and research revenue above is revenue of approximately $1.18 million from
Medialink PR Data Corporation ("MPR"), which acquired the assets of PR Data
Systems, Inc. ("PR Data") in July, 1996. In addition, included in production and
live broadcast revenue for the September 1997 Period is $2.98 million from the
Medialink Corporate Television Division which acquired certain assets of
Corporate TV Group, Inc. ("CTV") on June 17, 1997. In addition to these

acquisitions, Medialink believes that the increased revenue resulted from the
growth of its sales and marketing team and its ability to provide clients with a
broader array of services as part of its four-part growth strategy.

     That strategy includes the development of new services, leveraging
Medialink's existing client base through the cross-marketing of its services,
geographic expansion and growth through acquisitions and strategic alliances. On
August 11, 1997 Medialink successfully closed the acquisition of U.K.-based On
Line Broadcasting Limited ("On Line"), which enhances the services offered from
the Company's London office. Shortly after the close of the quarter, the Company
announced the formal opening of its new San Francisco office, bringing the
number of Medialink's worldwide sales offices to nine.

     Direct costs grew by $2.40 million , or 52%, from $4.60 million in the
September 1996 Period to $7.00 million in the September 1997 Period. Direct
costs as a percentage of revenue decreased from 41% of revenue for the September
1996 Period to 38% for the September 1997 Period mainly as a result of improved
margins on Medialink's distribution and production services.

     General and administrative expenses increased by $3.52 million or 63%, from
$5.55 million in the September 1996 Period to $9.07 million in the September
1997 Period. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues
were 50% for both the September 1996 Period and the September 1997 Period.
Salary-related costs increased by $2.51 million in the September 1997 Period, of
which $500,000 and $607,000, respectively, were the results of the acquisition
of PR Data in July, 1996 and the CTV acquisition in June, 1997. The balance of
the increase was due primarily to the growth of Medialink's sales and operations
staff in response to increased demand for its services.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

     Depreciation and amortization expense, which is included in general and
administrative expenses, increased by $441,000, or 276%, from $160,000 in the
September 1996 Period to $601,000 in the September 1997 Period. The increase was
primarily due to amortization expense arising from the acquisitions of PR Data
in July, 1996 and CTV in June, 1997.

     As a result of the foregoing, operating income increased by $1.17 million,
or 116%, from $1.01 million for the September 1996 Period to $2.18 million for
the September 1997 Period. As a percentage of revenue, operating income for the
September 1997 Period was 12% as compared with 9% for the September 1996 Period.

     Interest and other income net of interest expense increased by $312,000
from $4,000 for the September 1996 Period to $316,000 for the September 1997
Period. This increase was primarily due to the investment of the net proceeds of
$15.6 million from Medialink's initial public offering which was completed in
February 1997, after underwriting discounts and offering costs. The remaining

proceeds are invested in short-term investments and money-market funds.

     Income tax expense was calculated using Medialink's effective tax rates of
38.3% for the September 1997 Period and 42.7% for the September 1996 Period. The
decrease in the rate reflects the investment of the net proceeds of Medialink's
initial public offering in tax-free municipal securities and other changes in
state and local taxes as a result of differences in income earned in certain
jurisdictions.

     Net income increased by $959,000 or 166%, from $579,000 for the September
1996 Period to $1.54 million for the September 1997 Period. Pro forma net income
per common and common share equivalent increased from $.17 per share for the
September 1996 Period to $.29 per share for the September 1997 Period.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Medialink has financed its operations primarily through cash generated from
operations. Cash flow from operating activities amounted to $497,000 for the
September 1997 Period and $1,173,000 for the September 1996 Period. Capital
expenditures which are primarily incurred to support Medialink's sales and
operations were $355,000 for the September 1997 Period and $412,000 for the
September 1996 Period. Medialink has no capital expenditure plans other than in
the ordinary course of business.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

     In June, 1997 Medialink acquired certain assets of CTV. The initial
purchase price of $4 million was paid $3.67 million in cash and $333,000 in
Medialink common stock. Earn-out provisions allow for up to an additional $6.2
million to be paid based upon certain revenue and profitability targets over the
next five years. Assuming the targets are met, the overall consideration will be
in the form of 80 percent cash and 20 percent in Medialink common stock.

     In August, 1997 Medialink acquired all of the outstanding shares of common
stock of On Line. The initial purchase price of approximately $330,000,
including acquisition costs was paid by the issuance of 21,995 shares of
Medialink common stock and approximately $99,000 in cash. Additional purchase
price, based on certain revenue and net income levels through December 31, 1997,
will be paid by the issuance of additional shares of the Company's common stock.

     As at September 30, 1997 Medialink had $12.2 million in cash and short-term
investments as compared with $675,000 as at December 31, 1996. The increase in
cash and short-term investments resulted primarily from the proceeds of $15.6
million from Medialink's initial public offering, less the cash used in the
acquisition of CTV. As at September 30, 1997, long-term debt and commitments
under covenants not to compete were $293,000 and $281,000, respectively, and
capital lease commitments were $31,000.


     Medialink believes that it has sufficient capital resources and cash flow
from operations to fund its net cash needs for at least the next twelve months.

     With the exception of the historical information contained in this Form
10-Q, the matters described herein may contain forward-looking statements that
