EDD HELMS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
February 29, 2000 AND February 28, 1999 (Unaudited)

1. GENERAL

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of the
Company have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X
promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the
Company has made all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
results of the interim periods, and such adjustments consist of only normal
recurring adjustments. The results of operations for such interim periods are
not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Effective July 30, 1999, the shareholders of Hotelecopy approved an agreement
and plan of merger by and between Hotelecopy, Inc. and Edd Helms, Incorporated
whereby Edd Helms, Incorporated was merged with and into Hotelecopy, and
Hotelecopy's name was changed to Edd Helms Group, Inc. The trading symbol is now
listed as EDDH, effective January 7, 2000.

2. RECLASSIFICATION

Certain amounts recorded in the three and nine months ended February 28, 1999,
have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

3. BUSINESS COMBINATION

On July 8, 1999, Hotelecopy filed a proxy in connection with an anticipated
solicitation of its shareholders' proxies to approve an agreement and plan of
merger with Edd Helms, Incorporated, a Florida corporation ("EHI"). The merger
was accounted for as a reverse acquisition purchase, as if EHI had acquired
Hotelecopy. The shareholders of EHI each received 2,178.6363 shares of
Hotelecopy's common stock in exchange for each outstanding share of EHI's common
stock they owned. The proxy statement also provided for the consideration and
vote upon the change of Hotelecopy's name to Edd Helms Group, Inc. as well as
consideration and vote upon an amendment to Hotelecopy's Articles of
Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of its common stock,
par value $.01 per share, to 20,000,000 shares.

The shareholders' meeting was held on July 30, 1999, and all proposals were
approved.

The consolidated condensed financial statements reflect Hotelecopy's activity
from the effective date of the reverse acquisition only, and the activities of
EHI for all prior periods concerned.

4. AMORTIZATION

Goodwill representing the acquisition of a communication business acquired
during the fiscal year ended May 31, 1999, is being amortized over 15 years
using the straight-line method. Goodwill resulting from the merger is being
amortized over 5 years using the straight-line method.

5. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Net income per common share has been computed (basic and diluted) for all
periods presented and is based on the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the period. There are no common stock equivalents resulting
from dilutive stock options.

6. COMMON STOCK

Treasury Stock. During this quarter, the Company purchased 92,393 shares of

SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT

Certain statements in this Form 10-QSB, including information set forth
under Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
constitute 'forward-looking statements' within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the Act). Edd Helms Group, Inc.
desires to avail itself of certain 'safe harbor' provisions of the Act and is
therefore including this special note to enable us to do so. Forward-looking
statements in this Form 10-QSB or hereafter included in other publicly available
documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to our
stockholders and other publicly available statements issued or released by us
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could
cause our actual results, performance (financial or operating) or achievements
to differ from the future results, performance (financial or operating) or
achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such
future results are based upon management's best estimates based upon current
conditions and most recent results of operations.

REVENUES EARNED

Revenues for the nine months ended February 29, 2000, as compared to the nine
months ended February 28, 1999, increased by approximately 16%. The increase is
a result of a general increase of business, particularly service work, and the
addition of business generated by our data communications operations. We have an
ongoing aggressive advertising campaign and believe these increases are due
primarily to our advertising campaign.

COST OF REVENUES EARNED

Costs of revenues increased approximately 33% for the nine months ended February
29, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999. Them was an increase in costs,
attributable to the increase in revenues1 however, the gross profit for the
period decreased by approximately 9% as compared to the same period in 1999.
This increase is a result of a mom competitive marketplace with a portion of the
Company's construction contract project. A higher percentage of the Company's
work in new construction existed In the current year versus 1999.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by 14% in the nine months
ended February 29, 2000, as compared to the same period in 1999. The Company
attributes a portion of this decrease to management's reduction of legal and
accounting expenses this year as opposed to those legal expenses required as the
Company was registering for its merger between Hotelecopy, Inc. and the Edd
Helms, Inc. companies.

NET INCOME

Net income decreased by 12% during the nine month period ending February 29,
2000 as compared to the nine month period ended February 28, 1999. This decrease
is principally the result of an increase in the percentage of the Company's work
directly in the construction arena which carried a lower markup percentage than
service and retrofit work.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Edd Helms Group, Inc. had working capital of approximately $1,111,800 and a
ratio of current assets to current liabilities of approximately 1.8 to 1 at
February 29, 2000. This compares with the February 28, 1999 working capital of
approximately $939,092 and a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of
1.9 to 1. During the quarter cash balances increased by 12% while accounts
receivable declined by approximately $51,600. Accounts payable decreased by
approximately $140,000 and customer deposits decreased by approximately
$164,500.

Historically, before the merger, Edd Helms, Inc. has financed its operations and
growth with internally generated working capital. Our primary requirement for
capital (other than that related to any future acquisition) consists of
purchasing vehicles, inventory and supplies used in the operation of the
business, plus carrying costs of our work in progress on construction contracts
that have increased during this quarter.

We anticipate that our cash flow from operations will provide cash in excess of
our normal working capital needs, debt service requirements and planned capital
expenditures for property and equipment in the year ahead. We also have a
$250,000 credit line of which $150,000 has been drawn.
