ITEM 1: BUSINESS
General
In 1978, Telemed Cardio Pulmonary Systems ("Telemed")
purchased a pulmonary testing business based in Salt Lake
City, Utah. Telemed's business was developed from research
performed at the University of Utah on computer applications
in medical data processing. Telemed later became a division
of Becton Dickinson & Co. ("Becton"), a conglomerate of
companies dealing primarily in disposable medical supplies.
Telemed's primary focus was in developing and marketing
diagnostic computer systems used in pulmonary testing and
analysis.
In 1983, Becton's management decided to sell the high
technology pulmonary and respiratory care business. The
Company was organized on February 24, 1984 by employees of
Telemed to purchase Telemed's pulmonary and respiratory care
information services business. In March 1984, the Company
purchased that business for cash and a promissory note
payable to Becton. The Company then repositioned its
business to focus on providing the RCMS family of products,
with a view to offering cost-effective information systems
that allow health care institutions to provide better care
at less cost. The Company built and serviced much of its
mini-computer based hardware and developed its own
proprietary software, all state of the art for the mid-
eighties.
By 1988, annual revenue had grown to $2.4 million and the
Company completed an initial public offering of its common
stock through Schneider Securities in 1989. By September
15, 1989, 23 hospitals were using the Company's respiratory
care management systems (then referred to as "RCMS") and the
Company employed 23 full and part-time employees.
Over time, with improvements in computer hardware and
performance, the mini-computer based product became dated.
With the entrance of two P.C. based competitors, the market
shifted away from the Company's Respiratory product. The
last RCMS sale was made in January 1991. The Company
launched a technical development effort to create a new
generation of products and meet the competitive challenge.
New technology required new programmers, and in 1994 a new
senior management team was put in place.
A newly developed system, designated as the RCMS/X, was
designed to use off-the-shelf P.C. hardware, commercially
available software such as a UNIX operating system and the
ORACLE relational data base. The system's open architecture
allowed it to share information easily with other computers
and networks. In 1993, the first two Beta sites were
installed and the system was thoroughly tested. In the
spring of 1995, after more than three years of development
and testing, a production system RCMS/X, including handhelds
and hospital interfaces was installed. There have not been
any further installations of the RCMS/X since 1995, when the
Company decided to focus its development efforts on its new
Emergency Department Management System.

Acquisitions:
International Healthcare Consulting Group Acquisition
Effective September 5, 1995, the Company acquired certain
assets of The International HealthCare Consulting Group
("HCG"). The assets acquired included certain accounts
receivable, equipment, software products and other
intangible assets. In exchange for the assets acquired, the
Company agreed to issue 50,000 shares of its common stock
and assume $30,000 of debt.
In connection with the assets purchased, the Company also
entered into three-year employment agreements with HCG's two
principal shareholders and agreed to issue certain warrants
to purchase common stock and to grant certain options to
purchase common stock based on future performance.
HCG provides healthcare institutions, mainly hospitals, with
professional high-quality, cost effective, consulting
services, which produce a more efficient, lower cost care
delivery model while maintaining the highest quality of care
standards. Consulting services are provided in the
following areas:
. Nurse Staffing and Patient Classification
. Cost Benefit Analysis for Computerized Patient Records (CPR)
. Productivity
. Cost Accounting
. Operations Assessment
. Modeling and Simulation
National Microcomputer Corporation Merger
On September 29, 1995, the Company and National
MicroComputer Corporation ("NMC") approved the terms of an
Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Agreement")
pursuant to which NMC was merged with and into Tenet Merger
Subsidiary, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company
incorporated for the purpose of effecting the merger. NMC
developed and marketed an integrated information
management/patient tracking system (EDNet) designed
specifically for use in emergency departments.
Emergency Department Network System
Dr. Richard Gwinn, MD, an emergency medicine professional,
founded NMC in California in 1979. NMC originated the
concept of a computerized patient tracking and information
management system dedicated to emergency department
operations. The Emergency Department Network ("EDNet") was
first developed in 1989. Early versions ran on highly
proprietary hardware and software with limited flexibility
and functionality.
2
<PAGE>
In 1991, a decision was reached to completely rewrite and
expand the original EDNet software. The first installation
of EDNet, version 3, occurred in April 1992. This version
was designed for IBM compatible PCs and utilized standard
operating systems and database software. With this version
the cost of ownership of EDNet was reduced substantially.
EDNet, is an integrated information management/patient
tracking system designed specifically for use in emergency
departments. It is a collaborative information management
tool used in real time by clinical and management personnel
to collect data and provide information at the most
efficient points in the patient care process. Demographic
information is collected at registration either by way of an
interface from the main hospital information system
registration function or directly through the EDNet
registration process. Clinical flow information is
generated and recorded through the tracking system and at
the time of discharge through use of custom configured
discharge routines. Auxiliary data may be added at any
time. Information is stored in linked relational databases,
which are completely open and non-proprietary, accessible
both within the system and through other compatible
applications on a shared basis.
EDNet is currently in its fifth release, (EDNet 32) as a
Windows 95/98/NT/2000 compliant product. Recent
enhancements include discharge aftercare instructions
database, a user-sortable patient tracking display and the
development of triage assessment protocols, auto faxing, and
auto paging. EDNet 32 for Windows was released in the spring
of 1998.
System Architecture - EDNet32 is written in C++ using the
Borland's C++ Builder design environment. For smaller
installations, the application utilizes the Borland Database
Engine and Paradox 7/8 tables. This configuration requires
a Novell 4.x/5.x server and Windows 95/98 workstations. For
larger installations, or NT installations, EDNet32 is
configured using Microsoft's ADO components to attach
directly to MS SQL Server 7.0 on an NT server. Using the
ADO components allows the system to bypass ODBC calls, thus
improving performance. The system architecture and the use
of C++ Builder design environment allows the application to
attach to other client/server products through native
drivers should a client require a database engine other than
MS SQL Server.
Hardware - EDNet32 Version 5.x runs on a standard Novell
network (3.11 or better) or Microsoft NT Server with Windows
95 or later workstations. The Company recommends a Pentium-
based server with at least 10 GB of disk storage capacity.
The server should be equipped with mirrored drives for data
security and devices for backup and archive storage. The
server should be supported by an intelligent uninterruptible
power supply (UPS). The server must be suitable for use
with Novell Network, v.4.1/5.x or NT. Network hardware
should be certified by Novell/Microsoft.
Individual workstations should be Pentium 300 MHz or better,
with at least 128MB of RAM. Workstations must fully
support SVGA color graphics. Stations should have Windows
installed. In addition to the appropriate number of end-
user workstations, Tenet recommends a dedicated station for
remote access communication and a dedicated station for
3
<PAGE>
interfaces from the hospital-wide information system. A 56K
baud modem or Internet communication is required for 24 x 7
support. PC Anywhere should be installed on the
communications station.
Tracking Functions - The EDNet Patient Tracking module
replaces the grease board, chalk board, magnets and markers
with an on-screen display, continuously updated and
distributed throughout the Emergency Department.
The EDNet Patient Tracking module is the heart of the EDNet
System. EDNet status screens are distributed throughout the
emergency department so up-to-the-second information on
every patient is available at a glance from wherever
providers are currently working. There is no need to return
to a central point to check on the status of orders,
determine which patients have priority, or discover the
types of problems that have just been presented at Triage.
Updates from Triage, Registration, Order Communications and
Discharge are displayed immediately throughout the emergency
department.
EDNet provides color coded status screens for designated
emergency department areas such as Triage, Registration,
Treatment1, Treatment2, Trauma, Pediatrics, Major Medical,
Fast Track, Holding, Out in the Hall, etc. During system
configuration customers determine how to designate emergency
department areas on their EDNet System.
Following installation of EDNet, the department becomes
quieter and less hectic. Communication among staff is
facilitated by convenient interaction with the EDNet System
and vital information is not erased, but instead, recorded.
Time and Motion - EDNet Tracking Module keeps a time stamp
record of every patient visit. The system automatically
records triage time, the time a patient is registered, the
time when a patient is made ready to be seen, a patient is
seen by a physician, orders are placed, orders acknowledged,
results available, the order is cleared and three specific
events in the discharge process. Time stamps and all
associated data become available for various analytical
studies. The goal is an accurate picture of emergency
department operations, greater efficiency, lower waiting
times, faster turn around on orders, and improved patient
care.
Triage Function - EDNet provides the ability to create
triage procedures that meet requirements for intake and
initial assessment of ambulatory patients. This function is
separate from but fully integrated with the Registration
Module. Triage may take place either before or after patient
registration, as the patient's medical condition requires.
Data is merged when both functions have been completed. The
triage assessment function contributes to the EDNet database
to improve the quality management, research and outcome
tracking.
Order Entry Module - Automating the order process while
maintaining a database offers department managers improved
turn around times and may significantly impact costs. EDNet
Order Entry Module (Optional) allows users to automate the
order requisition process while simultaneously completing a
detailed database entry for all departmental orders.
4
<PAGE>
Physicians and nurses gain a simple, consistent means of
entering order information and generating a requisition when
appropriate. Unit clerks and technicians receive consistent
print or screen-based output.
Order status indicators display on the EDNet Tracking
Screens and detailed query capability is always available.
Providers will know precisely the elapsed time between steps
in the order process. EDNet Order Entry software records
four time stamps in the permanent database: Order placed,
Order acknowledged, Results available and Results reviewed.
EDNet Report Writers can be used to examine the order
process in detail to improve turn around times, minimize
unnecessary procedures and generate a wide variety of
routine reports and ad hoc studies.
The EDNet Order Entry Module can be interfaced with
laboratory or other ancillary departmental systems or with
the main hospital information system (HIS). The Standard
Order Status Interface carries automated status notification
flags from HIS order communications software to the EDNet
Tracking Screens. Additional interface capability is
offered on a custom basis. All EDNet interfaces are
available in HL-7 format.
Prescription Function - EDNet Prescription Writer generates
printed, signature ready prescriptions at discharge or at
any time during or after the patient visit. Warnings and
instructions relating to prescribed medication may be
automatically incorporated into patient discharge
instructions.
The significance of an integrated prescription writer
extends far beyond the printing of the prescription itself.
As the prescription information is input, database files are
simultaneously completed. These database files may be used
for many important medical and quality management functions
such as follow up of culture results, utilization summaries,
formulary management, and analysis of patterns of antibiotic
sensitivities.
Data tables are established during system configuration.
Typically menus list physicians, drug category, formulary,
quantity, dosage, frequency and special instructions.
Password security can be applied. Charges for each
medication may be indicated if desired. Data tables can be
easily updated by emergency department managers, information
services personnel, or by the Tenet support staff, using
remote access capability.
Charge Entry Module - Recording charges at the point of
service reduces lost revenues and produces an accurate
record which can be used to verify payments.
EDNet Charge Entry Module (optional) allows users to enter
charges at any time during the patient visit. Charges may
also be recorded during the discharge process or in a batch
mode after a visit. EDNet records charges in a specialized
data base table that can be configured to generate a
flexible report of charges for individual patients, all
patients or special subsets of patients. Reports can
describe specific visits; a daily summary of all visits or
various date and hourly ranges may be selected. Authorized
personnel configure reports through a selection of menus.
Reports may be viewed on the screen, printed or sent to a
computer file in HL-7 format for transmission to the
hospital billing function.
5
<PAGE>
Discharge Functions - EDNet aftercare instructions are
selected from a database of more than 1,000 aftercare
instructions and are printed individually for each patient.
Instructions are available in both English and Spanish.
English instructions may be selected for either a fifth
grade reading level or a ninth grade reading level.
EDNet Discharge Module is extremely flexible. During
configuration, various discharge procedures are created to
handle standard discharge, hospital admission, transfer,
workers compensation cases, trauma registry and other
situations. A comprehensive ICD-9 code database is
available. Various database menus may be included to record
additional details of a patient visit.
Hospitals may wish to accompany the discharge instructions
with pertinent information about the facility. Individual
instructions are stored in an extensive database, and are
chosen from a menu where they can be catalogued by a
physician, and related to ICD-9 codes. Free-form
instructions are fully supported and multiple instructions
may be selected. Instruction sets may be imported from
other discharge instruction generating systems.
Multiple languages are supported by the system. Any set of
discharge instructions kept in the database, in up to 26
languages and variations, may be selected upon discharge.
The discharging personnel need not be familiar with that
language.
Management Report Writer - The EDNet system can be
configured to exceed all applicable JCAHO requirements.
Data is collected consistently, for all patients, all the
time, without the need for redundant entry or additional
staff.
EDNet contains an open, relational database configured to
create a variety of standard and recurring reports and
available for ad hoc inquiries as well. EDNet will generate
and recall logs, routinely run statistical and comparative
analyses and with the recently added Crystal Reports
feature, display graphical reports to answer management
questions without paging through charts and medical records.
Virtually any type of report desired can be constructed from
the standard report writing menus or by using the ad hoc
report writing capability of the databases.
Other Features of the latest version, EDNet32 include auto
faxing, auto paging, industrial medicine components, forms
management and the like.
Marketing
The Company's marketing efforts are directed at broadening
the market for its products by increasing awareness among
directors of emergency departments and chief information
officers. In support of its sales efforts, the Company
conducts programs that include advertising, direct mail,
trade shows and ongoing customer communications programs.
The Company also keeps its customers informed of advances in
6
<PAGE>
the field through e-mail and other mailings. The Company
maintains a Web site on the Internet that provides Company
and product information for its products.
(www.Tenetinfo.com).
The position of Vice President of Sales is vacant and is
currently being filled by the President of the company.
As of June 30, 2000, the Company had sold its EDNet product
to 25 emergency department and urgent care sites. All sites
have annual maintenance contracts for continued support and
updates. As of June 30, 2000 the Company was in the process
of installing EDNet32 upgrades at 5 additional sites and 1
installation at a new client.
The Consulting division provides consulting support to major
hospitals throughout the country. These services consist
primarily of cost benefit evaluations, patient
classification for nursing, and productivity management for
all other departments. Consulting services are charged on a
negotiated fee basis. As of June 30, 2000 the Company was
providing consulting services to three hospitals, two of
which are industry "Top 100" Hospitals. One of the "Top
100" Hospitals has received "magnet" designation, which only
13 hospitals in the country have received.
The Company believes that high-quality customer service and
technical support are essential competitive factors in its
marketplace. Through its training, consulting, maintenance,
and support services, Tenet is aware of customers' needs and
strives to provide services that will maximize the results
achieved by customers using Tenet's products. Maintenance,
support, and training also provide valuable feedback that is
used to refine, enhance, and develop Tenet's products.
Customers receive maintenance support from a staff of
experienced customer specialists via a telephone "hot line".
Annual maintenance contracts are required at each site and
are provided for a fixed price. Included in the annual
maintenance contracts are periodic product upgrades and
feature/function enhancements. New modules are furnished at
an additional cost.
EDNet 32 Product Development
Development efforts are focused on the enhancement of the
EDNet 32 product. Research is being conducted on the
integration of nursing and physician documentation. Voice
recognition and radio frequency are being investigated as
possible product enhancements. An inpatient nursing
application, (IntelliChart), building upon existing EDNet 32
software, is being beta-tested at a major consulting client
site. IntelliChart utilizes the main library set of EDNet32
to provide inpatient-nursing units with a real time patient
tracking system. The primary focus of IntelliChart is to
provide the nursing staff an automated methodology to
determine patient dependency. Patient dependency is
determined based upon the patient's care needs and is
translated into staffing requirements on shift and staff
skill level basis.
EDNet 32 is also migrating to a true client server based
version, which will greatly enhance the durability of the
product. A majority of the development effort has been
expended on this enhancement.
7
<PAGE>
The Company's future success will depend on its ability to
continue to enhance its current product line and to continue
to develop and introduce new products that keep pace with
competitive product introductions and technological
developments, satisfy diverse and evolving customer
requirements and otherwise achieve market acceptance.
Protection of Proprietary Rights
The Company holds a registered trademark on the name
"IntelliChart". In addition, the Company expects to seek
certain patent, trademark and/or copyright protection in the
further development of its new products, if appropriate.
The Company has entered into non-disclosure agreements with
employees, consultants and customers to protect its
proprietary technology.
Capital Stock
The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the board
of directors, without shareholder approval, to issue up to
1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such rights and
preferences as the board of directors may determine in its
discretion. The board of directors has the authority to
issue shares of preferred stock having rights prior to the
common stock with respect to dividends, voting and
liquidation.
The current authorized common stock of the Company is
100,000,000 shares.
Employees
At June 30, 2000, the Company employed eight full-time
employees, one part-time employee and several independent
service contractors. The number of employees and their
responsibilities are as follows: two professional, five
technical, and one administrative.
Competition
The health care information systems industry is highly
competitive. There are many companies of considerable size
and expertise that could enter the Company's market for
emergency management systems. The Company is aware of
competing emergency department information systems.
8
<PAGE>
The Company's products target the emerging market for
computerized patient and data management products in
hospital and urgent care settings.
The Company faces direct competition in the emergency
department market from several other firms. Many of these
competitors have significantly greater resources, name
recognition and larger installed bases of customers than the
Company.
As a result, these potential competitors may be able to
devote greater resources to the development, promotion and
sale of their products than the Company.
The Company believes that it is imperative that it be
competitive in service and product performance. The Company
stresses customer service wherever the product is placed.
With the enhancements to the capabilities of networks, the
Company has determined it must adopt new technology in order
to continue to compete effectively in the large hospital
marketplace. As discussed in Product Development, the
Company is further developing and converting its products.
This effort is expected to enable the Company to compete in
this marketplace.
ITEM 2: PROPERTIES
The Company's headquarters and operational facilities are
located in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Company leases
approximately 3,490 square feet of office space at a cost
$4,050 per month. This is pursuant to a lease that expires
on November 30, 2000.

year. Costs of revenues related to the EDNet System and
Respiratory System for fiscal year 2000 were $236,853,
giving the system revenue products a gross margin of 59%.
This compares to cost of revenues of $269,213 with a gross
margin of 62% for the prior twelve-month period. Overall
gross profit for the fiscal year 2000 was 57% compared to
61% for the prior year. This modest decline was due to the
termination of the RCMS product line.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by
$95,998 or 34%, to $184,120 for fiscal year 2000 compared
with $280,118 for the previous fiscal year. This decrease
resulted from personnel and expense reductions related to the
decline in revenue. Software development expenses increased
by $36,124 or 18%, to $237,450 for fiscal year 2000 from
$201,326 for fiscal 1999. This increase is the result of the
company adding new features to the EDNet product line.
As a result of the above factors, the net income from
operations was $15,163 for fiscal year 2000 compared with
income of $58,386 for fiscal year 1999.
Net interest expense declined slightly to $6,200 from $6,584
for the prior fiscal year.
Net income was $8,963 or $.00 per share for fiscal year 2000
compared with a net income of $68,705 or 0.00 per share for
fiscal year 1999.

TENET INFORMATION SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1--NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Organization - Tenet Information Services, Inc. ("Tenet"), a
Utah corporation, designs and markets a computer-based
medical and health information system related primarily to
emergency departments (the "EDNet System"). During fiscal
1996 Tenet expanded its operations by merging with National
Microcomputer Corporation ("NMC") and acquiring certain
assets of The International Healthcare Consulting Group,
Inc. ("HCG"). NMC designed and marketed the integrated
information management/patient tracking system for use in
emergency departments of hospitals and urgent care centers
(the "EDNet System"). HCG has provided healthcare
institutions, mainly hospitals, with consulting services to
assist the institutions in achieving a more efficient, lower
cost care delivery model while maintaining the highest
quality of care standards. Tenet has elected to phase out
its respiratory therapy product line.
Tenet and its wholly owned subsidiary, NMC, (collectively,
"the Company") sell and lease computer software license
rights to hospitals throughout the United States. In
addition, the Company sells maintenance contracts for these
information systems. Substantially all of the Company's
revenues are generated from hospitals and therefore, the
Company's financial performance is partially dependent upon
the viability of the healthcare economic sector.
The Company is subject to various risks associated with
companies in a similar stage of operations including
dependence on key individuals, potential competition from
larger and more established companies and the need to obtain
adequate sources of financing.
Basis of Presentation - The accompanying financial
statements have been prepared on a going concern basis,
which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of
business. The Company previously experienced losses from
operations resulting in an accumulated deficit at June 30,
2000 of approximately $5,069,426. The Company has a negative
cash flow from operations of $10,010 for the current year
and a working capital deficit of approximately $179,178 at
June 30, 2000. These factors previously caused substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern for a reasonable period of time. The Company has
phased out its respiratory therapy product line and replaced
it with the EDNet System, which is deemed to be a more
marketable and profitable product line. Management is also
negotiating various sales agreements and is continuing to
better manage its cash flow. Management is also considering
raising capital through the issuance of warrants and other
equity instruments. These factors reasonably mitigate the
concern about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern.

NOTE 2-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Tenet and its
wholly owned subsidiary, NMC. All significant intercompany
transactions and account balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue in
accordance with the provisions of Statement of Position No.
91-1 Software Revenue Recognition as follows:
Revenues related to the EDNet System consist of sales of
software licenses, installation of information systems and
related software customization and enhancements. In
addition, revenues are generated from annual software
support and maintenance. Installation revenues are
recognized on the percentage completion method measured by
completion and acceptance of contracted milestones. The
asset "work performed in excess of billings" represent costs
incurred and revenues earned in excess of billings on
uncompleted contracts. The liability "billings in excess of
work performed" represents billings in excess of costs
incurred and revenue recognized.
Revenues from annual software and maintenance are recognized
ratably over the term of each contract. Amounts billed in
advance of revenue recognition for software and maintenance
are recorded as deferred revenue.
Revenues from consulting services are recognized when the
services have been provided.
Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment - Furniture, fixtures and
equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of
the related assets, generally 3 to 10 years. Depreciation
expense was $9,164 and $8,089 for the periods ended June 30,
2000 and 1999. Maintenance and repairs are charged to
expense as incurred and major improvements or betterments
are capitalized. Gains or losses on sales or retirements are
included in the statement of operations in the year of
disposition. Furniture, fixtures and equipment include
$140,464 of computer equipment used in operations and $8,673
of furniture, fixtures and other equipment at June 30, 2000.
F-8
<PAGE>
Software Development Costs - Costs incurred in creating
computer software products are charged to operations as
software development expense prior to the development of a
detailed program design or a working model. After the
detailed program design or working model is established,
costs of producing product masters are capitalized as
software development costs. The Company had no capitalized
software costs at June 30, 2000.
Costs of maintenance and customer support are recognized as
expense when the related revenue is recognized or when those
costs are incurred, whichever occurs first.
Impairment - The Company records impairment losses on
property and equipment when indicators of impairment are
present and undiscounted cash flows estimated to be
generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying
amount. The Company had no impaired assets at June 30,
2000.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The estimated fair
value of financial instruments is not presented because, in
Management's opinion, there is no material difference
between carrying amounts and estimated fair values of
financial instruments as presented in the accompanying
balance sheet.
Income Taxes - The Company recognizes the amount of income
taxes payable or refundable for the current year and
recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between
the financial statement amounts of certain assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the years those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation
allowance to the extent that uncertainty exists as to
whether the deferred tax assets will ultimately be realized.
Advertising Costs - Advertising costs are charged to expense
in the period incurred. Advertising expense for the years
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $226 and $2,430,
respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation - Stock-based compensation to
employees is measured by the intrinsic value method. This
method recognizes compensation based on the difference
between the fair value of the underlying common stock and
the exercise price of the stock option on the date granted.
Compensation relating to options granted to non-employees is
measured by the fair value of the options, computed by an
option-pricing model.
Warranty Costs - A 90-day limited warranty is provided on
sales of hardware and software licenses. Warranty costs
incurred on hardware are passed through to the manufacturer.
Warranty costs have not been material in any year presented;
accordingly, these costs are expensed when incurred.
F-9
<PAGE>
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share -Basic earnings per
common share is computed by dividing net income available to
common stockholders by the weighted-average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per share reflects the potential dilution which
could occur if all contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the
issuance of common stock.
NOTE 3-BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
The following data shows the amounts used in computing
earnings per share for the year ended June 30, 2000 and 1999

NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
No benefit for income taxes has been recorded during the
years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. Certain risks exist
with respect to the Company's future profitability, and
management has concluded that, due to these uncertainties,
the related net deferred tax asset may not be realized.
Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been recorded to
offset the deferred tax asset in its entirety.
The components of the net deferred tax assets at June 30,
2000 are as follows:
Deferred Tax Assets
Tax net operating loss carry forward $ 1,544,873
Tax credits carry forward 92,000

NOTE 7-CAPITAL STOCK
The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the board
of directors, without shareholder approval, to issue up to
1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such rights and
preferences as the board of directors may determine at its
discretion. The board of directors has the authority to
issue shares of preferred stock having rights prior to the
common stock with respect to dividends, voting and
liquidation.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999, the Company
issued 232,175 shares of common stock to satisfy amounts
owed of $9,287 for legal work performed on behalf of the
Company.
NOTE 8-STOCK OPTIONS
During fiscal year ended June 2000, the Board of Directors
authorized the issuance of 830,000 stock options outside of
the Incentive Stock Option Plan to employees of the Company.
These options vest at a rate of 20% annually, are exercisable
at $0.10 per share and expire on June 4, 2004. No expense was
recognized related to the grant of these options. 205,000 of
these options were forfeited during the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2000.
The Company has adopted an incentive stock option plan and a
nonqualified stock option plan. Stock options for an
aggregate of 600,000 shares of common stock may be granted
under these plans. Stock options under both option plans may
be granted at a price per share not less than 100 percent of
the fair market value of the common stock, as determined at
the date of grant. Employees vest in the right to exercise
their options from immediately to the fifth anniversary date
following the date of grant. The options expire five years
from the vesting date. Incentive stock options are forfeited
unless exercised within zero to three months following
termination of employment or twelve months if termination is
due to death or disability.
A summary of the status of the Company's option plan as of
June 30, 2000 and 1999, and changes during the years then

accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost
has been recognized for its stock option plans. Had
compensation cost for the Company's stock-based compensation
plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant
dates for awards under those plans consistent with the
method of FASB Statement 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, the Company's net income and income per share
would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated
below:
2000 1999
---------- ----------
Net income (loss)
As reported $ 8,963 $ 68,705
Pro forma (5,750) 68,705
Basic earnings (loss) per share
As reported 0.00 0.00
Pro forma (0.00) 0.00
Diluted earnings (loss) per share
As reported 0.00 0.00
Pro forma (0.00) 0.00
The fair value of each option granted was estimated on the
date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model
with the following weighted-average assumptions used for
grants during the year ended June 30, 2000: expected
volatility of 137.77 %, risk-free interest rate of 5.8% and
expected lives of 5 years. There were no issuances of
options during the year ended June 30, 1999.
Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective
assumptions including the expected stock price volatility.
Also, the Company's employee stock options have
characteristics significantly different from those of traded
options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can
materially affect the fair value estimate. Management
believes the best input assumptions available were used to
value the options and the resulting values are reasonable.

Stock Option Plans
On October 15, 1984, the Company adopted an Incentive Stock
Option Plan (the "ISO Plan"), pursuant to which only
"incentive stock options" ("ISO's"), as defined in the
Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), may be granted. On the
same date, the Company adopted a Nonqualified Stock Option
Plan ("NQSO Plan"), pursuant to which only "nonqualified
stock options" ("NQSOs"), as defined in the Code, may be
granted. Stock options for an aggregate of 600,000 shares
of common stock may be granted under both Plans. ISOs may
be granted under the ISO Plan to employees owning less that
10% of the Company's voting stock (as defined by Sections
422A and 425 of the Code). NQSOs may be granted under the
NQSO Plan to employees who are ineligible to receive options
under the ISO Plan.
Stock options may be granted under the Plans at a price per
share not less than 100% of the "fair market value" (as
defined by the Plans) of the common stock on the date of
grant.
The Plans limit grants of stock options to any one employee
to 60,000 shares of stock per plan year, with an aggregate
option price ceiling of $100,000 under the ISO Plan in any
year. Each stock option, unless sooner terminated, expires
five years from the "date of effectiveness", which is three
years from the date of grant.
ISOs are exercisable until three months following
termination of employment (twelve months if termination is
due to death or disability). Termination of employment for
any reason does not affect the exercisability of NQSOs,
regardless of whether the option's effective date has been
reached. Under both Plans, options are exercisable during
an optionee's lifetime only by such optionee and are
transferable only upon death by the laws of decent or
distribution.
The Board of Directors has the right to modify or amend the
Plans at any time, provided, however, that, unless ratified
by the Company's shareholders, no amendment will be
effective which (i) changes the number of shares which may
be issued under the Plans, (ii) changes the option price,
other than the manner of determining the fair market value
of the shares, (iii) changes the periods during which
options may be granted or exercised, (iv) changes the
provisions relating to the determination of employees to
whom options may be granted and the number of shares to be
covered by such options, or (v) changes the provisions
relating to adjustments to be made upon changes in
capitalization. Shareholder action is also required to
terminate the Plans.
As of August 1, 1999 the company had granted 830,000 options
to key employees exercisable at the rate of $.10 per share.
205,000 of these options were forfeited during the fiscal
year and at June 30, 2000 and an additional 20,000 were
forfeited during the three month period ended September 30,
2000. Only 655,000 remained outstanding as of October 1, 2000.
These options were issued outside of the Incentive Stock
Option Plan and authorized by the Board of Directors. There
are still outstanding 50,000 options to an employee
exercisable at $0.14 per share.

ITEM 13: CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED
TRANSACTIONS
Since the beginning of the Company's last fiscal year, there
have been no transactions or series of transactions between
the Company and any executive officer, director or 5%
beneficial owner of the Company's common stock in which one
of the foregoing individuals had an interest of more than
$60,000 except the transaction identified below.
The Company believes that all transactions between the
Company and related parties have been on terms and
conditions no less favorable to the Company than those
available from third parties. Each transaction was entered
into to provide operating capital for the Company. All
future transactions between the Company and any related
party will be on terms and conditions no less favorable to
the Company than those available from third parties and will
be approved by a majority of the Company's disinterested
directors.
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
required the Company's directors and executive officers, and
persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class
of the Company's equity securities, to file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of
ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common
Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Executive
officers, directors and holders of ten percent or more of
the Company's equity securities are required to furnish the
Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.
However, because of the recent mergers and conversions,
these reports have not been provided.
