NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by
the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, the
accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all
adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals)
necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial
position as at December 31, 1999 and 1998 and the results of its
operations, changes in its stockholders' equity and cash flows
for the respective periods then ended. Management has elected to
omit certain disclosure required by generally accepted accounting
principles. The Company's Form 10-KSB for fiscal year ended June
30, 1999 includes audited financial statements as of June 30,
1999 and 1998, complete with the auditors' report and footnotes
to the financial statements, and should be read in conjunction
with this Form 10-QSB.
2. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
On May 25, 1993, the Company's shareholders approved a 1 for 400
reverse split of the Company's common stock and preferred stock,
and increased the authorized capital stock of the Company to
5,000,000 shares of no par value common stock and 1,000,000
shares of $.01 par value preferred stock. Retroactive effect has
been given to all share and per share data in the accompanying
financial statements.
The Series A preferred stock has a $40.00 per share liquidation
preference and is convertible to common stock on an eighteen for
one basis at the option of the holders. The preferred stock may
be redeemed at any time at $40.00 per share, at the election of
the Board of Directors of the Company.
The Company has authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock
which may be issued in such series and preferences as determined
by the Board of Directors.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Systems West, Inc. posted a net income of $18,656 on net
sales of $180,283 for the second quarter of fiscal year 2000, and
a cumulative net profit of $33,406 on net sales of $370,584 for
the six months ended December 31, 1999. Although revenues for
the Company continue to be weak, the corporate-wide restructuring
initiated at fiscal year end June 30, 1999 has materially reduced
operating expenses and facilitated a profitable quarter.
Ongoing, the Company expects to operate at modest revenue levels
reflective of its existing back orders, support current business
commitments and aggressively pursue additional capital in order
to return Systems West to more active operating levels,
particularly in sales and marketing.
The Company's back orders at December 31, 1999 approximate
$75,000 representing South American and Pacific Rim projects
deliverable in the third quarter.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
At December 31, 1999, the Company had a working capital deficit
of $(268,957) compared to a working capital deficit of
($314,011) at December 31, 1998.
The current working capital requirements are supplemented by
export loans guaranteed by the Small Business Administration and
a $50,000 subordinated two year, 8% interest note convertible at
$.50 per share from a private investor. However, the Company
continues to be severely constrained by shortfalls in working
capital needed to support normal levels of operating activities.
In addition to the borrowings mentioned above, the Company
continues to solicit investors and/or strategic partners to
enable it to capitalize on its core technology opportunities in
the significant global market. To date, definitive investment or
other opportunities have yet to materialize.
The Board and management have serious doubts concerning the
Company's ability to sustain successful operations and return the
operation to annual profitability without a material capital
infusion.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
No information is included in answer to Items 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6
under Part II as the Items are either not applicable or, if
applicable, the answer is negative.
Forward-Looking Statements
The statements contained in this report which are not historical
in nature are forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Company intends that such
forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors for
such statements under such sections. The forward-looking
statements herein are based on current expectations that involve
a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking
statements are based on numerous assumptions, including, but not
limited to, the assumption that the Company can successfully
compete with larger, more established competitors; that the
market segments targeted by the Company will continue to grow;
that pricing and other competitive pressures worldwide on
significant projects will not cause margins to erode
significantly; that the Company will complete its major project
cost-effectively to budgetary expectations; and that currency
fluctuations worldwide will not cause adverse pricing pressures.
The foregoing assumptions are based on judgments with respect to,
among other things, future economic, competitive and market
conditions, and future business decisions, all of which are
difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which
are beyond the Company's control. Accordingly, although the
Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-
looking statements are reasonable, any such assumption could
prove to be inaccurate and therefore there can be no assurance
that the results contemplated in forward-looking statements will
be realized. The forward-looking statements are subject to risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those set forth in or implied by the forward-
looking statements, including, but not limited to, the risk that
competitive conditions in the industry will change adversely or
otherwise become more intense; that changes in technology or
customer preference could cause the growth rate in the markets
the Company serves to slow or halt; that demand for the Systems
West product line will slow; that worldwide pricing and other
competitive pressures could adversely affect the Company's
margins; or that currency fluctuations could result in
international pricing pressures or could reduce the value in U.S.
dollar terms of the Company's international sales.
