NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis for Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements include the accounts
of Princeton Media Group, Inc. ("Princeton"). On October 27, 1998, Princeton
Publishing, Inc. and Firestone Publishing, Inc., wholly-owned subsidiaries of
Princeton Media Group, Inc., and Kingston Press, Inc., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Princeton Publishing, Inc., each filed an Assignment for the
Benefit of Creditors (the Assignment(s)), a proceeding governed under the laws
of the State of Florida. The Assignments were filed with the Court of the
11th Judicial Circuit in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida on October 27,
1998. The Assignment proceeding gives creditors the opportunity to file
proofs of claims. The Assignments were filed in order to expedite an orderly
sale and disposition of the assets of the entities and pay claims in order of
priority. As of the end of 1998, Princeton had no operations.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial
statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30,
2000, and the results of operations for the three months ended and six months
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 and their cash flows for the six-month periods
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. The results of operations for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction
with the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December
31, 1999.
2. Basic and Dilutive Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding. Common equivalent shares from stock options and
warrants, and additional shares assuming the conversion of debentures and
preferred shares, are excluded from the computation as their effect is
antidilutive.
For the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, cumulative dividends of
$22,000, respectively, related to preferred Series C have been added to net
loss in the loss per share computation.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per
share as of June 30, 2000 and 1999:
2000 1999
Net loss from operations $ ( 2,711) $( 33,674)
Preferred dividends - Series C $ ( 22,000) ( 22,000)
Net loss to common shareholders - operations $ ( 24,711) $( 55,674)

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
Forward-looking Statements
Statements contained in this Form 10-QSB regarding the Company's future
prospects or profitability constitute forward-looking statements and as such,
must be considered with caution and with the understanding that various
factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in such
forward-looking statements. Such factors include but are not limited to
failure of pending or anticipated acquisitions to be consummated.
General
Year 2000 Reporting
On August 4, 1998, the SEC issued expanded requirements for disclosure
regarding the international computer programming problems whereby certain
computer programs will not be able to properly recognize the date in the year
2000. Management believes the Company has no material exposure from the year
2000 problem. The Company's management information systems department reports
that because the Company's system was originally designed to be unaffected by
year 2000 problem, the Company has no exposure to the problem within its own
system. Because the Company has discontinued operations, the Company has no
vendors and suppliers whose non-compliance with correction of the problem
could cause material damage to the Company.
CURRENT PLANS
During 2000, management of the Company intends to pursue a plan of attempting
to identify an acquisition that could provide stable operations in order to
restore shareholder value.
Results of Operations
The Company has discontinued operations. Net loss from operations for the
period consists of minor office expenses, audit fees, and depreciation.
The six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the six months ended June 30,
1999:
There were no revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2000 or for the six
months ended June 30, 1999.
Costs and expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $2,711
compared to $33,674 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
The Company had guaranteed a note related to the operations of the assigned
subsidiaries. Per the terms of the note, the note was reduced by receipts to
the holder of the note from publications of the former subsidiaries of
Princeton. During the first quarter of 1999, the note was reduced by
$72,055 from proceeds of publications of the former subsidiaries of Princeton.
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $2,711 comprised of
administrative maintenance costs. Net income for the six months ended June
30, 1999 was $38,381 consisting of the extraordinary item of gain from
reduction of the guaranteed note of $72,055 and the loss from operations of
$33,674.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity and capital resources are discussed in three broad categories:
operating activities, investing activities and financing activities.
During the six-month periods ending June 30, 2000 and 1999 there were no
interest expenses charged to operations.
Cash increased $205 to $205 at June 30, 2000 from $-0- at December 31, 1999.
Net cash used in operating activities was $4,297 during the six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared to net cash used of $18,146 during the six months
ended June 30, 1999. The decrease in net cash used in operating
activities in the first six months of 2000 compared to the first six months
of 1999 is a result of the one-time gain on the reduction of a guaranteed
note together with minor accounting expenditures.
During the six-month periods ending June 30, 2000 and 1999, there was no net
cash provided by or used in investing activities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2000, net cash provided by financing
activities was $4,502 compared to $18,246 net cash provided by financing
activities during the six months ended June 30, 1999. The cash provided by
financing activities is a result of the advances made by related parties to
cover minimal operating expenses and audit fees.
