ITEM 1. Description of Business
Forward Looking Statements
This annual filing includes "forward looking statements" within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "PSLRA").
The PSLRA provides a "safe harbor" for such statements to encourage companies to
provide prospective information about themselves so long as such information is
identified as forward-looking and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary
statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those projected in the information. All statements other
than statements of historical fact made in this report or incorporated by
reference are forward-looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding
the availability of adequate funding and progress in the development of its
various business segments are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements represent management's current expectations and are inherently
uncertain. Investors are warned that the Company's actual results may differ
significantly from management's expectations and, therefore, from the results
discussed in such forward-looking statements.
History of the Company
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on
April 21, 1989 under the name Ainsley Corporation. The Company issued its
initial shares of common stock on April 25, 1989 (inception) and was organized
primarily for the purpose of raising capital to take advantage of potential
business opportunities. The name of the Company was later changed to Automated
Compliance & Training, Inc. (AC&T), when the Texas corporation was merged with a
Utah corporation to make the change to Utah as state of incorporation. On
September 3, 1996, AC&T merged with its wholly owned subsidiary Chequemate
International, Inc. (the "Company" or "CMI") and assumed the name of the
subsidiary.
On April 17, 1997 CMI formed a new wholly owned subsidiary named
Chequemate Third Dimension, Inc. The name has since been changed to Chequemate
Electronics, Inc. (CE). CE was formed to manufacture and market breakthrough 3D
imaging technology that was acquired from Advanced Technology Group, LLC (ATG).
On June 23, 1997 an agreement was finalized by which CE obtained the exclusive
worldwide license to the 3D technology developed by ATG.
On November 12, 1998 the Company sold the assets associated with the
financial service segments of the business to TFL, LLC with its two principals
being former Chequemate International employees. Both TFL, LLC and the Company
continue to use the name Chequemate International, although the Company has
filed for, and is operating under, the fictitious name of C-3D Digital, Inc.
On December 8, 1998 the Company purchased from Alpha Broadcasting
Corporation inventory, equipment and contracts to provide pay-per-view
television services to 19 hotel properties amounting to roughly 3,000 hotel
rooms. The purchase price was $1,000,000 and was accomplished through a
combination of 250,000 (pre-split) shares of restricted stock valued at $2.00
each, $60,000.00 cash, and a note for $440,000. On July 2, 1999 the Company
purchased additional equipment and contracts to provide pay-per-view television
services to an additional 21 properties. The purchase of these assets was
accomplished for the sum of $150,000 cash and 125,000 (pre-split) shares of
restricted common stock of the Company.
On December 10, 1998 and March 31, 1999, the Company acquired the debt
position of several secured investors in Strata, Inc., a 3D software provider.
On June 16, 1999 these debt positions were used to foreclose on the assets and
technology previously owned by Strata, Inc. The Company continues to market the
developed software products of Strata.

<PAGE>
On June 10, 1999, 3D.COM, Inc., was formed under Utah law, and on
October 21, 1999, this wholly-owned subsidiary held its organizational meeting.
It is management's intention to transfer all the software development and
Internet related assets of the Company to this subsidiary.
On February 2, 2000, the Company effected a one-for-four reverse split
of its outstanding stock.
Principal Products and Services
Cable Channel
The Company has been operating its own cable channel since January 1,
1999. The channel signal is currently encrypted, meaning that only an authorized
subscriber or cable operator can tune in and receive the Company's channel. The
channel is currently accessible only by cable operators or by owners of Ku-Band
satellite dishes. The signal is carried on transponder 9 of the GE Spacenet 3
satellite. The programming on the channel continues to increase and consists of
movies that have been licensed for use by the Company as well as video content
that is produced by the Company or contracted for production by the Company.
Content acquisition and development is coordinated through the Company's Los
Angeles office.
The Company is actively marketing its channel to cable operators across
the United States and has shown the service to cable operators at cable shows
such as the National Cable Television Association (NCTA), the National
Association of Television Programming Executives (NATPE), the Society of Cable
Television Engineers (SCTE) and the Western Cable Show. VisionComm, a cable
operator in Dallas, Texas, has successfully added the channel to its system and
began marketing it to its subscribers last year. Additional agreements have been
signed with cable operators CableAmerica Corporation in Arizona and Telepro
Communications in Bellevue, Washington. The channel is currently a premium
subscription channel (that is, not supported by advertising), with the cable
operator and the Company sharing the revenues.
Hotel Programming Services
Another key business segment of the Company is its hotel Pay-Per-View
and direct digital television services or "Free to Guest" services, called the
Hotel Movie Network. The Company became involved in this business area through
acquisitions from Alpha Broadcasting Corporation. In the acquisitions, the
Company purchased a combination of operating service contracts with additional
inventory to outfit hotels for Pay-Per-View and "Free to Guest" services.
The Company is interested in the hotel market as a focused test market
for its 3D technologies and as a stable revenue source. Currently the company
delivers television programming to approximately 11,000 hotel rooms. The hotel
properties are primarily located in Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, New
Mexico, Texas, Utah and Washington.
3D.COM Division
Strata Software Division
On June 16, 1999, the Company formed the 3D.COM division by completing
the process of acquiring the assets and technology previously owned by Strata,
Inc., and combining them with the internal web effort of the Company. The
Company has hired former Strata, Inc. employees to support and sell the Strata
products for the Company. Strata, Inc. was one of the early pioneers in 3D
software. The Strata tool line has been used for such well-known projects as the
game "MYST"(c); television

ITEM 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis
General
The audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31,
2000 and March 31, 1999 are part of this Form 10-KSB. Reference is made to the
Consolidated Financial Statements filed with this report for greater detail
regarding the financial position of the Company.
Management expects the Company to receive monthly subscriber revenues
beginning in the near term, as people subscribe to the newly launched 3D cable
channel through their local cable provider, although there can be no assurance
that this system will be successfully launched or that significant revenues will
be generated.
The Strata software products generated in excess of $1,800,000 in
revenue in the 2000 fiscal year. The Company expects to generate comparable
sales in the 2001 fiscal year.
The hotel pay-per-view segment currently generates roughly $20,000 a
month in revenue. This business will serve as an internal test market for
providing 3D entertainment to hotel guests. The Company has adapted its 3D
technology to work through the hotel pay-per-view system and is seeking
additional hotel properties in which to conduct market testing.

Product Rights consist of the Company's 3D technologies that
include the ability to convert 2D products to 3D products, the ability to film
with special 3D cameras, the ability to manufacture 3D items with the Strata
product line, and rights to certain content that can be converted to 3D products
to be distributed through the television channel, video, and DVD.

---------------------------
Total Current Liabilities 7,188,759 1,436,526
--------- ---------
</TABLE>
The increase in the current liabilities is due to new rules
pertaining to notes that will later be paid by the Company's issue of common
stock. During the first quarter of 2001 the accounts payable of the company were
significantly reduced. Short-term obligations represent various agreements and
commitments for services to be rendered to the Company. These obligations are to
be paid in common stock of the Company after approval by the Board of Directors.
The Board approved some of the agreements and the stock was then approved and
issued in the first quarter of 2001. One agreement is still waiting Board
approval. The Company recorded the obligations as a liability pending the
issuance of the stock in the first quarter of 2001. This transaction put the
Company's capital account into a negative position until the issuance of the
stock in the first quarter of 2001.
Accrued expenses are payroll taxes owed to the IRS and State of
Utah. Arrangements for the payment of these obligations have been made and these
debts are in the process of being retired.
All notes and accrued interest will be paid or converted to Stock
in the Company before the end of the second quarter of the year 2001.

The negative position of the capital account of the Company is the
result of booking services of consultants until stock can be issued in the first

2001 notes were converted to stock and additional capital was raised that
reversed the negative capital position of the company.

Sales showed a substantial gain over the prior two years. The sales
gains were due to the sale of the Strata software and Home Movie Network. The
increase in the cost of sales for the year over prior years was due largely to
the write-off of the "RealEyes" inventory. The Company's auditors have
recommended and the Company is in agreement with the concept of reserving for
inventory obsolescence each quarter to eliminate future possibilities of such
write-offs.

The Company's customers had previously been stable over the years, but
this year several of the Company's customers have either filed petitions in
bankruptcy or changed their methods of distribution due to the Internet. As a
result, the Company has reserved for such contingencies in the future.
Selling expenses were up from last year as the result of activities in
getting the cable channel started and the 3D.COM Internet portal open.
General and administrative expenses increased due to consultant
activities in the creation of new content, consultant activities in aiding the
Company in obtaining additional capital, and the issuance to employees of
options to encourage their loyalty to the Company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Chequemate International, Inc. and Subsidiaries
(dba C3-D Digital)
Marina del Ray, CA
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Chequemate
International, Inc. and Subsidiaries (dba C3-D Digital) as of March 31, 2000 and
1999 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity
(deficit), and cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Chequemate International, Inc. and Subsidiaries (dba C3-D Digital) as of March
31, 2000 and 1999 and the consolidated results of their operations and their
cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
Chequemate International, Inc. and Subsidiaries (dba C3-D Digital) will continue
as a going concern. As discussed in Note 12 to the financial statements, certain
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also discussed in
Note 12. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

share earnings or losses assuming the exercise or conversion of
all securities that are exercisable or convertible into common
stock and that would either dilute or not affect basis of EPS. As
permitted by SFAS No. 128, the Company has retroactively applied
the provisions of this new standard by showing the fully diluted
loss per common share for all years presented.
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"), which
requires the Company to determine compensation costs for the
