ITEM 6 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS
Plan of Operations - The Company was formed for the purpose of creating a
vehicle to obtain capital, to file and acquire patents, to seek out,
investigate develop, manufacture and market electronic in-store advertising,
directory and electronic coupon services which have potential for profit. The
Company is currently in the process of the commercialization of the patented
process ("Klever Marketing System") it has acquired.
In June, 1997, the company is scheduled to begin the product movement
test, a 90 day trial of the Klever Marketing System, which will end in
September 1997. The Company also plans to negotiate a contract for the
development of the Electronic Coupon system, which development is estimated to
be completed in January 1998.
In October 1997, the product movement test is scheduled to begin in Japan
and continue through December 1997.
In February 1998, the Company has scheduled to begin installation of the
Klever Marketing System in 50 Smiths Food & Drug Stores, which is estimated to
continue through May 1998. Also in February 1998, the Company is scheduled to
begin installation of the first Electronic Coupon test store which will
continue through June 1998.
In order to satisfy its cash requirements, the company will have to raise
additional funds through the sale of restricted stock and short term
borrowings..
The company estimated that it may need to hire 5 or 6 additional
employees during the next 12 months.
Results of Operations - The Company was inactive until July 5, 1996 when the
Company merged with Klever Kart, Inc. in a reverse merger and changed its name
to Klever Marketing, Inc. The Company is in the development stage as of
December 31, 1996, and has not commenced planned principal operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources - The Company requires working capital
principally to fund its current research and development and operating
expenses for which the Company has relied on short-term borrowings and the
issuance of restricted common stock. There are no formal commitments from
banks or other lending sources for lines of credit or similar short-term
borrowings, but the Company has been able to borrow any additional working
capital that has been required. From time to time in the past, required
short-term borrowings have been obtained from a principal shareholder or other
related entities.
Cash flows. Operating activities used cash of $617,000 and $731,000 for
1996 and 1995, respectively. The decrease in the use of cash is due primarily
to a reduction in research and development costs as the products is nearing
completion.
Investing activities have used cash of $50,000 and $49,000 for 1996 and
1995, respectively. Investing activities primarily represent purchases of
patents relating to the electronic in-store advertising, directory and coupon
devices, and purchases of office equipment.
Financing activities provided cash of $672,000 and $779,000 for 1996 and
1995, respectively. Financing activities primarily represent sales of the
Company's restricted stock.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Klever Marketing, Inc.

responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing

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 financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Klever Marketing,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of accounting policies for Klever Market, Inc. (Formerly
VideOcart, Inc.) is presented to assist in understanding the Company's
financial statements. The accounting policies conform to generally accepted
accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of
the financial statements.
Organization and Basis of Presentation
The Company was organized under the laws of the State of Delaware in
December 1989. The Company was in the Development stage from 1989 to 1991.
The Company was an operating company from 1992 to December 8, 1993 when it
filed petitions for relief under Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The Company was
inactive until July 5, 1996 when the Company merged with Klever Kart, Inc. in
a reverse merger and changed its name to Klever Marketing, Inc. (See note 8 -
Merger). The company is in the development stage as of December 31, 1996, and
has not commenced planned principal operations.
Nature of Business
The Company was formed for the purpose of creating a vehicle to obtain
capital, to file and acquire patents, to seek out, investigate, develop,
manufacture and market electronic in-store advertising, directory and coupon
services which have potential for profit. The Company is currently in the
process of the commercialization of the patented process it has acquired.
Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly
liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of three months or less to be
cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment
purposes.
Earnings per Common Share
Earnings per common share are based upon the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during each year. Fully diluted earnings per share
are not presented because they are anti-dilutive.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are
computed using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful
lives of the related assets as follows:

(Continued)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Fixed Assets (Continued)
Computer equipment 3 years
Office furniture and fixtures 5-10 years
Upon sale or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and
related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts
and any gain or loss is included in the determination of income or loss.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred. Major overhauls and betterments are capitalized and depreciated
over their estimated economic useful lives.
Intangibles
Organization costs and intangibles associated with certain technology
agreements are amortized over 10 years.
NOTE 2 - INCOME TAXES
The Company has accumulated tax losses estimated at $4,000,000 expiring
in years 2005 through 2011. Current tax laws limit the amount of loss
available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change
in ownership occurs. The amount of net operating loss carryforward available
to offset future taxable income may be limited if there is a substantial
change in ownership.
NOTE 3 - DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY
The Company has not yet begun principal operations and as is common with
a development stage company, the Company has had recurring losses during its
development stage.
NOTE 4 - LEASE COMMITMENT
On June 1, 1994 the Company entered into a six year commercial lease of
office space with Tree of Stars, Inc./P.D.O. (major shareholders of the
Company). The lease provides for rental payments of $22,428 for two years,
increasing to $25,726 for an additional two years with a provision for the
review of the rental payment requirements every two years thereafter.

NOTE 5 - RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development of the Klever-Kart System began with the sole
purpose of reducing thefts of shopping carts. A voice-activated alarm system
was envisioned. As time and technology progressed, the present embodiment of
the Klever-Kart System evolved into a "product specific" point-of-purchase
advertising system consisting of an easily readable electronic display that
attaches to any shopping cart, a shelf mounted message sending unit that
automatically sends featured products' ad-message to the display and a host
computer using proprietary software.
During the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company expended
$280,837 and $772,989 respectively for research and development of the
technology involved with its patents.
On September 26, 1994 the company entered into a technology development
agreement with Electronic Technology Corp. for the further defining of the
requisite componentry and assembly for commercialization of the Company's
Patented Technology. The agreement also provides for Electronic Technology
Corp. to manufacture and assemble up to 250 sets of display units and
accompanying requisite equipment for use in a product movement test which has
been scheduled for mid-1995. The agreement provides for the following payment
schedule:
