NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. In the opinion of the Company, the unaudited consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments, consisting solely of adjustments of
a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods
presented. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q
and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not contain all
the information and footnotes required in a complete set of financial
statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto as of
March 31,1997 included in the Company's Form 10-KSB. The results of
operations for the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 1997
is not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending March
31, 1998.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of IndeNet, Inc., plus the accounts of its subsidiaries during the
periods that such subsidiaries were owned by IndeNet. The subsidiaries
include the wholly-owned subsidiaries of Mediatech (through its sale on
July 18, 1997), Starcom (through its sale on July 18, 1997), CCMS
(since its acquisition on May 16, 1996), Enterprise (since its
acquisition on May 24, 1996) and its 66.67% owned subsidiary
Channelmatic (through its sale on March 24, 1997) (collectively "the
Company"). On April 1, 1997, Starcom and Mediatech merged into Starcom
Mediatech, Inc. On July 18, 1997, all of the stock of Starcom
Mediatech, Inc. was sold. See Note 6 below for further discussion on
the sale of Starcom Mediatech, Inc.
2 Until the sale of Mediatech, the Company leased office, production and
warehousing facilities in its Chicago, Illinois location from real
estate partnerships in which a former shareholder of Mediatech has a
controlling interest. Total rent expense paid to these partnerships for
the three-months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 was $0 and $183,551
and for the nine-months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 was $184,886
and $652,337. The Company leased office space in Alpine, California
from a director and stockholder of the Company, and a shareholder of
Channelmatic. Total rent expense paid to the officer for the three and
nine-months ended December 31, 1996 was $19,500 and $58,500.
3 In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128)
"Earnings per Share." SFAS 128 establishes new standards for computing
and presenting earnings per share and was effective for the Company's
interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS 128
requires restatement of all previously reported earnings per share data
that are presented. SFAS 128 replaces primary and fully diluted
earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share.
Net income per share was determined by dividing net income less
preferred stock dividends by the weighted average number of shares and
common share equivalents outstanding during the period. The impact of
common share equivalents on the determination of basic and diluted
earnings per share is not material for the three and nine-months ended
December 31, 1997.
Net loss per share is calculated by taking the sum of the net loss plus
preferred stock dividends divided by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding. Common stock equivalents, such as stock
options, warrants and convertible preferred stock, have not been
included since their effect would be anti-dilutive.

4 During the nine-months ended December 31, 1997, the Company repaid
notes payable to related parties which had principal balances
aggregating $4.73 million and accrued and unpaid interest of $512,000
for $4.47 million in cash; resulting in a gain on retirement of debt of
$774,740. The gain is included in "gain on extinguishment of debt" in
the consolidated statements of operations for the nine-months ended
December 31, 1997. See also note 7.
5 In September 1997, the Company repurchased 197 shares of its Series C
Preferred Stock "(Series C") having an aggregate value of $2.19 million
for $1.58 million in cash. The $2.19 million amount is comprised of
stated value of $1.97 million, $98,000 of an accrued 5% premium, and
accrued accretion of $118,000. During the three-months ended December
31, 1997, holders of Series C exercised their "put-options" resulting
in the Company issuing 591,820 shares of its common stock and $3.42
million in cash. During the month of January 1998, the holders of the
Series C exercised their "put-option" resulting in the Company paying
the holders $1.58 million in cash.
6 On July 18, 1997, the Company sold all of the issued and outstanding
shares (the "Shares") of capital stock of Starcom Mediatech, Inc. to
Digital Generation Systems, Inc., a California corporation ("Digital").
The initial consideration paid by Digital for the Shares consisted of
the following: (i) $14.0 million in cash; (ii) 324,355 restricted
shares of Digital Common Stock valued at $1.6 million; (iii) Digital's
Subordinated Promissory Note, dated July 18, 1997 ("Subordinated
Note"), in the principal amount of $2.2 million; and (iv) assumption of
an aggregate of $2.2 million owed by the Company to Thomas H. Baur,
Chairman of Mediatech and a director and stockholder of the Company.
The Subordinated Note bears interest at 9% per annum and is payable in
13 equal quarterly installments of principal and interest, commencing
on October 1, 1997. All unpaid principal and accrued interest on the
Subordinated Note is due and payable on October 1, 2001. The Purchase
Agreement provided for an adjustment to the purchase price based on
certain financial measurements as of July 18, 1997. As a result of
those financial measurements, on October 27, 1997, the parties entered
into an agreement whereby the purchase price was reduced by $625,000.
The parties agreed that $25,000 of the purchase price adjustment was
immediately payable in cash and that the Subordinated Note be reduced
by $600,000. Accordingly, the originally issued note of $2.2 million
was cancelled and a new note of $1.6 million was issued (the "New
Note"). The New Note is payable in installments of $150,000 plus
accrued interest on December 31, 1997, June 30, 1998, December 31, 1998
and June 30, 1999, with the remaining installments payable on the last
day of each successive calendar quarter thereafter until fully paid on
March 31, 2001. The Company recorded a gain with respect to this
transaction of $10.4 million and is included in gain on disposal of
discontinued operations, shown net of tax, in the consolidated
statements of operations.
7 During July 1997, the Company's Chief Executive Officer left the
Company. The former Chief Executive Officer was paid a severance amount
of $495,527. In addition, the former Chief Executive Officer was paid
$348,310 in connection with two related party notes owed to him by
Company. At the time of payment, the related party notes had an
aggregate principal balance of $366,452 and accrued interest of
$43,325. The Company realized a gain of $61,467 with respect to the
payment, and the amount of gain is included in "gain on extinguishment
of debt" in the consolidated statements of operations. The Chairman of
the Board subsequently became the Chief Executive Officer as well as
retaining the Chairman's duties. Effective August 1, 1997, the Company
and the new Chief Executive Officer entered into an employment
agreement whereby the Chief Executive Officer is to be paid a salary of
$20,000 per month plus a car allowance of $850 per month. In year two,
the salary increases to $25,000 per month, and in year three, the
salary increases to $30,000 per month. The employment agreement also
provides for other customary employee benefits.

8 During the three-months ended December 31, 1997, the Company purchased
and cancelled 265,745 shares of its common stock for $550,000 in cash.
9 During the three and nine-months ended December 31, 1997, the Company
sold its interest in equity securities of LIMT AB. The Company acquired
the equity securities in LIMT AB in connection with the sale of the
Company's 66.67% interest in its subsidiary Channelmatic to LIMT AB for
cash, notes, and stock in March 1997. The Company acquired the equity
securities for $2.8 million and realized $2.3 million in cash on sale
of the equity securities. A corresponding $501,607 loss on sale of
equity securities is recorded in other income (expense) in the
consolidated statements of operations.
10 On October 1, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with the
holder of two convertible notes in the principal amount of $4.285
million, whereby the Company paid the holder $4.675 million in cash on
October 1, 1997 and issued a promissory note for $825,000, interest
payable quarterly in arrears beginning December 31, 1997 at 6% per
annum, and a balloon payment due on December 31, 1998. The convertible
notes were originally issued in February and May 1996, whereby the
holder of the notes had rights to convert the notes and any accrued and
unpaid interest into common stock at 82% of an average market price
calculation. During fiscal year ended March 31, 1997, the Company
recorded a non-cash interest expense charge of $847,000 related to the
18% securities yield and recorded the offset of the charge to
stockholders' equity. At December 31, 1997, included in Accounts
Payable and Accrued Expenses is $1.215 million which is comprised of
accrued interest of $416,000 and $799,000 of deferred interest which
was reclassified from stockholders' equity.
11 It is the Company's policy to capitalize software development which
is expected to produce a revenue return in subsequent years.
Amortization of such capitalized software development is over the life
of the revenue received or a period of five years, whichever is
shorter.
During the third quarter ended December 31, 1997, the Company expensed
$804,995 as the Company believed that due to a change in technology
and the needs of its clients no revenue return was now going to be
forthcoming and that it could not justify capitalizing that
expenditure.
On April 2, 1997, the Company's UK subsidiary, Enterprise Air-Time
Systems Limited ("Enterprise UK"), purchased Media Information Services
Limited and related customer contracts for of $2,260,710 from
Television Sales and Marketing Services Limited. Enterprise UK paid
$1,255,950 which it obtained by way of a three year loan from
Barclays Bank plc., and issued a seller loan note to United News &
Media plc., for the balance of the purchase price. This latter loan
was payable over three years at $334,920 per annum.
$847,000 of the total purchase price was allocated to client
contracts for which revenue is expected to be received in fiscal
1998 only. Accordingly, that amount has been written-off as
goodwill in the quarter of the purchase. The remaining amount of
the total purchase price will be amortized over the next four
fiscal years.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the three and nine-months ended December 31, 1996, the operations of the
Company were conducted solely through its subsidiaries Starcom Mediatech, Inc.
and Channelmatic. In addition, included in the operations of the Company for the
nine-months ended December 31, 1996 were eight months of operations of CCMS and
seven months of operations of Enterprise. Included in the operations of the
Company for the three-months ended December 31, 1996, were three months
operations of Enterprise and CCMS. The results of operations for the
three-months ended December 31, 1997 include the operations of the Company,
Enterprise and CCMS.
Except for historical information contained herein, statements in this report
are forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the safe harbor
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties
which may cause the Company's actual results in future periods to differ
materially from forecast results. Reference is made to the risks identified
elsewhere in this Report and in the Company's other reports and registration
statements on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company is currently evaluating its corporate strategic plans and may, as a
result of this review, change the Company's name and its fiscal year-end.
Revenue
The decrease in revenue from the prior periods was primarily a net result of the
sales attributable to the subsidiaries sold in March and July 1997. It is
anticipated that revenue in future periods for the Company on a consolidated
basis will increase compared to the three-month period ended December 31, 1997
due to the expected realization of revenue from the recent increase in customer
contracts.
Cost of Sales
The change in cost of sales from the prior periods was primarily a net result
of the cost of sales attributable to the subsidiaries sold in March and July
1997. It is anticipated that cost of sales as a percent of revenue in
future periods for the Company on a consolidated basis will remain fairly
consistent with the three-month period ended December 31, 1997.
Selling, General and Administrative
The decrease in selling, general and administrative from the prior periods was
primarily a net result of the selling, general and administrative expenses
attributable to the subsidiaries sold in March and July 1997. It is anticipated
that selling, general and administrative in future periods for the Company on a
consolidated basis will remain fairly consistent with the three-month period
ended December 31, 1997.
10
<PAGE> 13
Depreciation and Amortization
The decrease in depreciation and amortization from the prior periods was
primarily a net result of the depreciation and amortization attributable to the
subsidiaries sold in March and July 1997. The Company continues to evaluate on a
regular basis the appropriateness of its capitalized software asset. If
management determines that the future value of the capitalized asset will not be
sufficient to justify the recorded assets, a writedown of the asset may occur.
The Company also evaluates the recorded value of its goodwill and customer list
intangible assets. Should the projected future cash flows, on a non-discounted
basis, be less than the recorded asset, an adjustment may be necessary. The
Company is in the midst of a review of its strategic plans and evaluating the
future value of its assets.
Corporate
Corporate overhead represents general and administrative expenses related to the
administration of IndeNet, exclusive of expenses of the subsidiaries. These
expenses for three and nine-months ended December 31, 1997 compared to the
comparative prior period decreased by $139,297 and $520,997. The decrease is due
primarily to a reduction of personnel and marketing costs. Future periods'
corporate expenses overall are expected to remain constant with the current
period. Some additional costs are may be incurred in connection with the
corporate office move from Los Angeles, California to Detroit, Michigan.
Interest Income
Interest income increased due to higher cash balance on hand which earned
interest. The higher cash balance was a result of the cash received from the
sales of Channelmatic and Starcom Mediatech. Interest income in future periods
is expected to fluctuate based on cash balances.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased for the three-months ended December 31, 1997
compared to the comparable prior period and for the nine-months ended
December 31, 1997 compared to the comparable prior period due to the exclusion
of interest expense of the companies sold during March and July 1997; offset by
interest incurred on convertible debt. Interest expense is expected to fluctuate
based on outstanding debt obligations.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the three and nine-months ended December 31, 1997
represents minimum state taxes paid for the various states in which the Company
does business.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of December 31, 1997, the Company had $2.5 million in cash and cash
equivalents and a working capital deficit of $3.0 million. During the
nine-months ended December 31, 1997, cash and cash equivalents decreased by
$336,730. Operations provided $53,050 in cash to the Company. The Company
generated $13.1 million in investing activities, primarily from the sale of
subsidiary and proceeds from the sale of equity securities; net of purchases of
capital expenditures, capitalized software costs, and purchase
11
<PAGE> 14
of customer list. The Company used $13.5 million in financing activities,
primarily for debt repayments and repurchase of common and preferred stock.
Based on the projected operations of the Company's remaining subsidiaries
(Enterprise and CCMS), the Company currently believes that its consolidated
operations will generate sufficient cash to fund the Company's working capital
needs for the next twelve months. Such projections are based on financial
information that the Company has obtained from its remaining subsidiaries.
However, no assurance can be given that the projected operations or projected
integration benefits will be realized or that the Company's operations will be
sufficient to fund the Company's working capital needs.
The Company and the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are in discussions
to modify the terms of the holders' original investment. The modified terms are
expected to result in the Company using a combination of cash, new borrowing and
future equity to redeem the existing Series A Preferred Stock.
Any future acquisitions will be funded from future equity and/or debt financing.
In January 1998, the Company obtained a $1.5 million line-of-credit from a bank
to pay $1.6 million of Series C Preferred Stock redemptions. Payments on the
remaining outstanding promissory notes are expected from cash flows from
Enterprise and CCMS. Corporate costs and its obligations are also expected to be
funded from the operations of Enterprise and CCMS. There is no assurance given
that anticipated future capital financings will be successful or that funds will
be available from IndeNet's subsidiaries to meet capital requirements.
