PROSPECTUS
- ----------
DATED JUNE 28, 1996 SUBJECT TO COMPLETION
ATEC GROUP, INC.
18,334,285 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
This Prospectus relates to the possible resale of up to 15,434,285 shares
(the "Shares") of the common stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock") of ATEC
Group, Inc. (the "Company") currently outstanding as well as up to 2,900,000
additional shares of Common Stock underlying currently outstanding Common Stock
Purchase Warrants (the "Warrants"). The Warrants consist of 925,000 Class W
Warrants, 925,000 Class X Warrants, 425,000 Class Y Warrants and 625,000 Class Z
Warrants.
Each Class W Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Common
Stock at a price of $.75 through June 30, 1996 ("Class W Warrants"). Each Class
X Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price
of $1.00 through August 31, 1996 ("Class X Warrants"). Each Class Y Warrant
entitles the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $1.25
through October 31, 1996 ("Class Y Warrants"). Each Class Z Warrant entitles the
holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $1.50 through
December 31, 1996 ("Class Z Warrants"). The Class W, Class X, Class Y and Class
Z Warrants are hereafter sometimes collectively referred to as the Warrants.
The Company will not receive any proceeds from possible resales by the
Selling Security holders of their respective shares of Common Stock of the
Company. The Company will receive gross proceeds of (i) $693,750 upon exercise
of all Class W Warrants; (ii) $925,000 upon exercise of all Class X Warrants;
(iii) $531,250 upon exercise of all Class Y Warrants; and (iv) $937,500 upon
exercise of all Class Z Warrants. There can be no assurance that any of the
Warrants will be exercised.
The Selling Securityholders may sell their shares of Common Stock from time
to time, in market transactions, in negotiated transactions, through the writing
of options, or a combination of such methods of sale, at fixed prices which may
be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related
to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The Selling
Securityholders may effect such transactions by selling their shares of Common
Stock to or through broker-dealers, and such broker-dealers may receive
compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the
Selling Securityholders and/or the purchasers of such shares of Common Stock for
whom such broker-dealer may act as agents or to whom they may sell as
principals, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might
be in excess of customary commissions.) The Company has agreed to bear all
expenses in connection with the registration of the shares of Common Stock to
which this Prospectus relates.

The Company
- -----------
ATEC Group, Inc. (the "Company"), formerly Hillside Bedding, Inc., was
incorporated in July 1992 under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in
the operation of retail bedding locations. In June 1994 the Company discontinued
its bedding operations and changed its business focus to engage in the
installation, sale and service of computer hardware and software products. In
June 1994 the Company acquired Sun Computer and Software, Inc. ("SCSI") and
Microcomputer Stores, Inc. ("MCS"). In February 1995 the Company acquired
American Computer Systems Corp. and Laptop and Office Solutions, Inc.
(collectively referred to as "ACS"). In March 1995 the Company acquired Cony
Computer Systems, Inc. ("Cony"). SCSI, MCS, ACS and Cony are wholly owned
subsidiaries of the Company and are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred
to as the Company.
The Company is engaged in the sale of computer hardware and software to
businesses, professionals, governmental agencies and educational institutions.
The Company provides customers with a range of services including designing and
installing computer systems, training system users and maintaining and repairing
hardware and software products. The Company maintains retail facilities in New
York City, Long Island, New York, Albany, New York and Norwalk, Connecticut. The

RISK FACTORS
The securities offered hereby are speculative and involve a high degree of
risk, including, but not necessarily limited to, the risk factors described
below. Prospective investors must carefully consider, among other things, the
following factors in evaluating an investment in the Company's securities.
1. MICROCOMPUTER INDUSTRY CONDITIONS. The microcomputer industry has been
characterized by intense price cutting among the major hardware and software
vendors which could materially adversely affect the Company's future operating
results. Given the Company's limited financial resources, its anticipated
expenses and the highly competitive environment in which the Company operates,
there can be no assurance that the Company's current rate of revenue growth will
continue in the future or that the Company's future operations will remain
profitable. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" and "Financial Statements." The Company's future results
of operations are dependent upon continued demand for microcomputer products.
This industry experienced rapid growth until 1988 and thereafter has grown at a
substantially slower rate. Distributors in the microcomputer industry currently
face a number of adverse business conditions, including price and gross profit
margin pressures and market consolidation. During the past six years all major
hardware vendors have instituted extremely aggressive price reductions in
response to lower component costs and discount pricing by certain microcomputer
manufacturers. The increased price competition among major hardware vendors had
resulted in declining gross margins for many microcomputer distributors and may
result in a reduction in existing vendor subsidies. Management of the Company
believes, however, that these current conditions, which are forcing certain of
the Company's direct competitors out of business, may present the Company with
opportunities to expand its business. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to continue to compete effectively in this industry given the
intense price reductions and competition currently existing in the microcomputer
industry. See "Business Industry; Suppliers; and Competition."
2. COMPETITION. The microcomputer market is highly competitive. The Company
is in direct competition with local, regional and national distributors of
microcomputer products and related services. Several of these competitors offer
most of the same basic products as the Company. In addition, the tri-state
Metropolitan New York area, to which the Company markets its products and
services, is particularly characterized by highly discounted pricing on
microcomputer products from various sources of competition. The Company faces
competition from microcomputer vendors that sell their products through direct
sales forces and from manufacturers and distributors that emphasize mail order
and telemarketing. The Company has an insignificant market share of sales in the
microcomputer industry and the service markets which the Company serves. Certain
of the Company's competitors on the regional and national level are
substantially larger, have more personnel and have materially greater financial
and marketing resources than the Company and operate within a larger geographic
area than does
7
<PAGE>
the Company. Accordingly, there can be no assurance the Company will be
able to continue to compete effectively in the marketplace. See "Business -
Competition."
3. DEPENDENCE ON SUPPLIERS. The Company is an authorized dealer for
microcomputers and related products of more than twenty five manufacturers. The
Company's authorized dealer agreements with suppliers are typically subject to
periodic renewal and to termination on short notice or immediately upon the
occurrence of certain events. The dealer agreements also provide for periodic
audits by the supplier. A supplier could also terminate an authorized dealer
agreement for reasons unrelated to the Company's performance. In addition, the
Company competes with other suppliers to obtain products on the most favorable
contract terms, which are often available only to companies substantially larger
than the Company. The loss of a major supplier or the deterioration of the
Company's relationship with those major suppliers whose products are in demand,
or a change in current terms of its dealer agreements could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business.
4. PROPOSED EXPANSION. The Company intends to continue to seek to expand
its current level of operations through acquisitions. While the Company has
grown during the last several years, there can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to further expand its operations successfully. Expansion of the
Company's operations will depend on, among other things, the continued growth of
the microcomputer industry, the Company's ability to withstand intense price
competition, its ability to obtain new clients, retain skilled technicians,
engineers, sales and other personnel in order to expand its technical and
marketing capabilities, secure adequate sources of products which are then in
demand on commercially reasonable terms, successfully manage growth (including
monitoring an expanded level of operations and controlling costs) and the
availability of adequate financing.
The Company seeks to expand its operations through potential acquisitions.
The Company previously reviewed various potential acquisitions and believes
there are numerous opportunities presently available. In June 1996, the Company
acquired Innovative. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
effect any other acquisitions or that, if the Company is able to effect any
acquisitions, it will be able to successfully integrate into its operations any
acquired business and expand the Company's operations. Moreover, the Innovative
acquisition is a related party transaction which was not negotiated on an
arms-length basis. There can be no assurance that the consideration paid by the
Company for Innovative would not have been at a more beneficial rate had the
Company and Innovative not been affiliated parties. In addition, possible
conflicts of interest may occur regarding the acquisition and and future
transaction between the Company and Innovative (see "Business - General"). The
Company may use authorized but unissued Common Shares to purchase businesses or
assets of companies. In the event that the Company makes an acquisition through
a leveraged transaction, of which it has no present intention, there can be no
assurance that the Company will have sufficient income to satisfy the interest
payments. If the Company enters into a leveraged transaction and does not have
sufficient income to meet interest payments they would have to be paid from
proceeds of this offering. See "Use of Proceeds" and "Business."
8
<PAGE>
5. TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE. The microcomputer products market is characterized
by rapid technological change and frequent introduction of new products and
product enhancements. The Company's ability to compete successfully depends, in
large part, on its ability to obtain products when needed and on favorable terms
from those suppliers and vendors which are able to adapt to technological
changes and advances in the microcomputer industry. The Company has access to
state-of-the-art technical databases which provide it with information
concerning technological advances from major vendors as soon as it is published.
While this allows the Company the flexibility to shift rapidly from one vendor
to another, there can be no assurance that the Company's current vendors and
suppliers will be able to achieve the technological advances necessary to remain
competitive or that the Company will be able to obtain authorizations from new
vendors or for new products that gain market acceptance. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to continue to keep pace with the
technological demands of the marketplace to successfully enhance its outsourced
support services to be compatible with new microcomputer products. See
"Business"
6. DEPENDENCE ON CERTAIN CUSTOMERS. The Company has approximately 2,000
active clients. However, for Fiscal 1995, approximately 18% of the Company's
revenues were derived from sales to one major customer. The Company's agreements
with its customers are usually subject to termination by the customer at will.
Although the Company's customer base has increased, the loss of a major customer
would be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations
during the short-term until the Company was able to generate replacement
business, although there can be no assurance of obtaining such business. See
"Business"
7. POSSIBLE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING. Depending upon the Company's
then current level of sales, the Company may require additional funds, including
the proceeds, if any, generated upon the exercise of the Warrants, in order to
expand its activities. The Company anticipates, based on currently proposed
plans and assumptions relating to this operation, that projected cash flow from
operations and currently available financing arrangements, will be sufficient to
satisfy its contemplated cash requirements for at least the next 12 months. In
the event that the Company's plans change or its assumptions change or prove to
be inaccurate, or if the projected cash flow proves to be insufficient to fund
operations (due to unanticipated expenses, possible acquisitions, technical
problems or difficulties or otherwise), the Company may find it necessary or
advisable to seek additional funding and/or to reallocate some of the proceeds
or to use portions thereof for other purposes. There can be no assurance that
additional financing, whether debt or equity, will be available to the Company
on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
Even if additional financing were available, the company may not be able to
obtain any additional financing, since all of the Company's assets are pledged
to secure the Company's outstanding bank indebtedness and inventory financing,
respectively, as described in the following paragraph. Any inability to obtain
additional financing could have a material adverse effect on the Company,
including possibly requiring the Company to significantly curtail
9
<PAGE>
its planned expansion. See "Use of Proceeds" and "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
8. MARKETING CAPABILITY. Substantially all of the Company's marketing
activities are being conducted by its officers, directors and limited number of
salespersons. Management will continue to devote a substantial amount of time
developing and maintaining continuing personal relationships with the Company's
customers. The Company's growth prospects, however, will be largely dependent
upon the Company's ability to achieve greater penetration of the Microcomputer
industry. Achieving market penetration will require the Company to be able to
attract skilled marketing personnel. See "Use of Proceeds" and "Business."
9. LACK OF PATENTS AND PROPRIETARY PROTECTION. The Company holds no patents
and has no trademarks or copyrights registered in the United States Patent and
Trademark Office or in any state. While such protection may become important to
the Company, it is not considered essential to the success of its business. The
Company relies on the know-how, experience and capabilities of its management
personnel. Without trademark and copyright protection, however, the Company has
no protection from other parties attempting to offer similar services. The
Company has access to state-of-the-art technical databases of various leading
vendors, which enables it to learn of technical breakthroughs as soon as they
are published; however, the Company has no proprietary right to these databases.
See "Business - Proprietary Information."
10. CONTROL BY CURRENT MANAGEMENT. The Company's officers and their
relatives currently possess voting rights representing approximately 36% of the
Company's outstanding voting securities. Accordingly, the Company's current
management and their relatives are able to exercise substantial control over the
Company including influencing the election of the Company's directors, and
generally directing the affairs of the Company. See "Management," and "Principal
Shareholders."
11. DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL. The success of the Company is largely
dependent on the personal efforts of Surinder Rametra, Ashok Rametra and B.J.
Singh. Although the Company has entered into employment agreements with Messrs.
Rametra, Rametra and Singh, the loss of their services would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business and prospects. The Company does not
maintain "key man" life insurance on the lives of Messrs. Rametra, Rametra and
Singh. The success of the Company is also dependent upon its ability to hire and
retain additional qualified engineering, technical and marketing personnel.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to hire or retain such
necessary personnel in the future. See "Management".
10
<PAGE>
12. BOARD DISCRETION IN APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. The estimated proceeds of
this offering have been primarily allocated for working capital and potential
acquisitions. No acquisition agreements are currently pending and there can be
no assurance that any acquisitions will be made. Accordingly, the Company's
Management will have broad discretion as to the application of such proceeds.
See "Use of Proceeds" and "Certain Transactions."
13. DILUTION. The purchasers of Common Shares following the exercise of the
Warrants will incur an immediate substantial dilution in the net tangible book
value of each share issued. The current shareholders of the Company will realize
an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of their shares. See
"Dilution".
14. NO DIVIDENDS. The Company has not paid any cash dividends on its Common
Shares and does not expect to declare or pay any cash or other dividends in the
foreseeable future. See "Dividend Policy."
15. ARBITRARY EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price of the Warrants were
arbitrarily determined by the Company and is not necessarily related to the
Company's asset value, book value, results of operations or any other investment
criteria. The exercise price of the Warrants should not be regarded as an
indication of the future market price of the Common Shares. See "Description of
Securities - Representative's Warrants."
16. PUBLIC MARKET FOR THE COMPANY'S SECURITIES; POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF
COMMON SHARE PRICE. There is no assurance that a market for the Company's Common
Stock will continue. Accordingly, the purchasers of the Common Shares offered
hereby upon exercise of the Warrants may still experience difficulty in selling
their securities should they desire to do so. The market price for the Company's
securities has been and may at times continue to be highly volatile. Factors
such as the Company's financial results, introduction of new products in the
marketplace, status of compliance with certain regulations governing the sale of
its products and various factors affecting the computer industry generally may
have a significant impact on the market price of the Company's securities.
Additionally, in the last several years, the stock market has experienced a high
level of price and volume volatility and market prices for many companies,
particularly small and emerging growth companies, the common stock of which
trades in the over-the-counter-market, have experienced wide price fluctuations
which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance of such
companies. See "Shares Eligible for Future Sale."
17. INABILITY TO EXERCISE WARRANTS IN CERTAIN STATES. The Company will be
unable to issue Common Shares to those persons desiring to exercise their
Warrants unless and until the Common Shares are qualified for sale in
jurisdictions in which such purchasers reside, or an exemption from such
qualification exists in such jurisdiction. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to effect any required qualification. The Warrants may be
deprived of any value and the market for the Warrants may be 11 limited if the
Common Shares are not qualified or exempt from qualification in the
jurisdictions in which the holders of the Warrants reside. See "Description of
Securities - Warrants." of Securities - Warrants."
11
<PAGE>
18. NECESSITY OF CONTINUING POST-EFFECTIVE AMENDMENTS TO REGISTRATION
STATEMENT. The Warrants will not be exercisable unless the Company maintains a
current Registration Statement on file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission through subsequent post-effective amendments to this Registration
Statement. While the Company intends to file post-effective amendments to this
Registration Statement and to maintain a current Registration Statement on file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the Warrants, there can
be no assurance that such will be accomplished or that the Common Shares
issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants will continue to be so registered.
The Warrants may be deprived of any value and the market for the Warrants may be
limited in that there is no current prospectus under an effective registration
statement covering the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. See
"Description of Securities - Warrants."
19. Speculative Nature of Warrants. Warrants are generally more speculative
than Common Shares which are purchasable upon the exercise thereof. During the
term of the Warrants, the holders thereof are given the opportunity to profit
from a rise in the market price of the Company's Common Shares, subject to the
Company's right of redemption. See "Potential Adverse Effect of Redemption of
Warrants" below. Historically, the percentage increase or decrease in the market
price of a warrant has tended to be greater than the percentage increase or
decrease in the market price of the underlying common shares. A Warrant may
become valueless, or of reduced value, if the market price of the Common Shares
decrease, or increases only modestly, over the term of the Warrant. See
"Description of Securities - Warrants."
20. FUTURE SALES OF COMMON SHARES UNDER RULE 144 OR OTHERWISE. Of the
18,443,462 (21,343,462 upon the exercise of the outstanding Warrants) Common
Shares issued and outstanding as of the date of this Prospectus a significant
number of such shares are "restricted securities" as that term is defined under
Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"). However, all restricted shares are currently eligible for
sale under Rule 144. In general, under Rule 144, a person (or persons whose
shares are aggregate) who has satisfied a two-year holding period may sell
"restricted securities" within any three-month period limited to a number of
shares which does not exceed the greater of one percent of the then outstanding
shares or the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks prior
to such sale. Rule 144 also permits the sale (without any quantity limitation)
of "restricted securities" by a person who is not an affiliate of the issuer and
who has satisfied a three-year holding period. The Company cannot predict the
effect that sales made under Rule 144, sales made pursuant to other exemptions
under the securities laws or under registration statements may have on any then
prevailing market price. Nevertheless, the possibility exists that the sale of
any of these shares may have a depressive effect on the price of the Company's
securities in any public trading market. See "Shares Eligible for Future Sale"
and "Principal Shareholders."

USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company intends to utilize the proceeds received from the exercise
of the Warrants, estimated to be $3,087,500 if all Warrants are exercised in
full, for general corporate and working capital purposes as well as to continue
the Company's expansion plans. There can be no assurance that any of the
Warrants will be exercised. The foregoing represents the Company's best estimate
of its use of proceeds generated from the possible exercise of Warrants based
upon the current state of its business operations, its current plans and current
economic and industry conditions. Any changes in the use of proceeds will be
made at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company.
CAPITALIZATION
The following table sets forth the capitalization of the Company as of

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Background
ATEC Group, Inc. (the "Company") through its wholly owned subsidiaries
Sun Computer and Software, Inc. (SCSI), Micro Computer Store, Inc. (MCS),
American Computer Systems Corp., Inc. (ACS), and CONY Computer Systems, Inc.
(CONY) is principally engaged in the sale of computer hardware, software,
computer support and technical services. The computer hardware and software
related products are sold primarily to businesses, professionals, governmental
units and educational institutions. In addition, the Company provides it
customers with a full spectrum of computer services and technical support
including designing and installing computer systems, training system users and
maintaining and repairing hardware and software products. Additionally, the
Company sells hardware and software products to the consumer market through its
store facilities in Albany, New York, Long Island, New York, Norwalk,
Connecticut and New York City.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Nine Months
1996 compared to 1995
- ---------------------
In February and March 1995, the Company acquired two additional companies,
ACS and CONY, engaged in the computer products and services business. As a
result of the acquisitions and internal growth, the Company's revenues for the
nine months increased to $45.2 million from $17.5 million for the prior year.
Revenues have almost tripled from the previous year. Revenues are generated by
the Company's sales of computer hardware and software, and related support
services. Gross margin for the six months increased to $3.6 million for 1996
from $2.4 million for 1995, a 50% increase due to the increased revenues. Gross
margin as a percentage of revenues for the nine months were 7.9% as compared to
13.9% for the prior year. The decrease in gross margin percentage is primarily
due to lower margins of the acquired companies and a 2.5% decline in the third
quarter. The third quarter margin decline of approximately $300,000 arose from
adverse weather conditions resulting in a decrease in retail business that has
higher margins. These margins are expected to increase as these companies
attempt to increase their market share in more profitable sectors of the
business such as integration, hardware service/maintenance, networking and
training.
Operating expenses exclusive of amortization of intangible assets increased
to $3.0 million as compared to $1.7 million for the prior year. The increase in
operating expenses are related to expanded business operations through the 1995
acquisitions of ACS and CONY and the opening of a sales office in New Jersey in
the third quarter.
17
<PAGE>
Amortization of intangible assets increased to $108,000 for the nine months
from $0 in the comparable 1995 period. Other expenses decreased $1.2 million
primarily due to the write-off over twelve months of all costs associated with
the 1994 reorganization and the satisfaction of bedding related debts of the
former bedding operations.
The provision for income taxes was $205,400 as compared to $314,862 for the
comparable period in 1995. The provision for income taxes in 1995 was greater
than the federal and state combined statutory rate of 40% primarily due to the
effect of non deductible charges associated with the charge-off of Hillside's
goodwill.
As a result of the above, the Company's net income increased to $308,099
for the nine months form a loss of $785,932 in the comparable 1995 period. For
the quarter ended March 31, 1996, net income increased to $6,485 from a loss of
$325,970 in the prior year. The primary reason for the 1995 loss resulted from
costs associated with the write-off of various items related to the Company's
former bedding business, the 1994 acquisition, and the reorganization of the
Company's business. For the nine months ended March 31, 1996, net income per
share was $.03 compared to a loss of $.25 in the comparable period of the prior
year. Primary and fully diluted average shares outstanding were 8,868,008 and
12,513,200 for the third quarter.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's cash position was $1,159,430 at March 31, 1996, an increase
of $17,968 as compared to June 30, 1995. The Company's working capital at March
31, 1996 was $2,647,909 as compared to a working capital of $l,027,436 at June
30, 1995. The increase in cash and working capital resulted from the sale of
1,860,941 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $1,074,751. Net cash used
by operating activities was $353,012.
Cash used for investing activities totaled $99,460 to purchase property and
equipment.
To accommodate the Company's financial needs for inventory financing,
Deutsche Financial Service (formally ITT Commercial Finance) has granted a
credit line in the amount of $3.25 million. At March 31, 1996, indebtedness of
the Company to Deutsche Financial was $2.4 million, or an increase of $742,821
compared at June 30, 1995. Substantially, all of subsidiary company tangible and
intangible assets are pledged as collateral for this facility.
Fiscal 1995 compared to Fiscal 1994
- -----------------------------------
During 1995, the Company acquired two additional companies, ACS and CONY
engaged in the computer products and services business. As a result of the
acquisitions and internal growth, the Company's revenues for 1995 increased to
$29.7 million from $25.4 million for 1994, a 17% increase. Revenues are
generated by the Company's sales of computer hardware and software, and related
support services. Gross margin increased to $2.9 million for 1995 from $1.8
million for 1994, a 61% increase due to increased revenues. Gross margin as a
percentage of revenues for 1995 was 9.7% as compared to 7% for 1994. The
increase in gross
18
<PAGE>
margin percentage is primarily due to the Company's focus on increasing its
market share in more profitable sectors of the business such as integration,
hardware service/maintenance, networking, and training.
Operating expenses exclusive of amortization of intangible assets increased
to $3.4 million for 1995 as compared to $2.2 million for 1994, a 55% increase.
In the fourth quarter of 1995, media credits of $448,000 which the Company
acquired during the period that it engaged in bedding operations in February
1994, before the acquisition of its computer business were found to be worthless
and were expended. The remainder of the increase in operating expenses are
related to expanded business operations through the 1995 acquisitions of ACS and
CONY. Amortization of intangible assets increased to $2.1 million for 1995 from
$0 in the comparable 1994 period, primarily due to the write off of all costs
associated with the 1994 reorganization of the Company and the satisfaction of
bedding related debts. Interest expense for 1995 amounted to $138,553 as
compared to $48,051 for the same period in 1994. Interest expenses in 1995 are
primarily related to increased lines of credit utilized to finance the Company's
increased business activity.
The provision for income taxes for 1995 was $87,014 as compared to $11,271
for the comparable period in 1994. The provision for income taxes in 1995 was
greater than the statutory rate of 34% primarily due to the effect of non
deductible charges associated with the charge off of the Company's goodwill.
As a result of the above, the Company's consolidated net loss increased to
$2.3 million for 1995 from $0.3 million in the comparable 1994 period. The
primary reason for such loss resulted from costs associated with the write off
of various items related to the Company's former bedding business, the 1994
acquisition, and the reorganization of the Company's business. The Company's
operating computer stores, SCSI, MCS, Cony and ACS, without giving effect to
such reorganization costs and write offs, reported income before taxes of
approximately $319,000 and income after taxes of approximately $214,000. These
store operating results reflected 12 months of operations for SCSI and MCS, but
only three months for Cony and five months for ACS. Primary and fully diluted
net loss per share for 1995 was $.59 as compared to a net loss of $.80, for the
comparable 1994 period. Primary and fully diluted average shares outstanding
were 3,972,333 and 389,573, respectively for 1995 and 1994.
Fiscal 1994 compared to Fiscal 1993
- -----------------------------------
Net revenues during the twelve months ended June 30, 1994 were $25.5
million representing a decrease of 37% compared with the Company's net revenues
of $39.8 million for the corresponding period of the previous year. The decline
in revenues was attributable to the elimination of sales to a former major
customer whose contribution to gross margin was significantly lower than that of
sales to other customers. Despite such decreases in overall revenues, the
Company's gross profit percentage increased to 7% for 1994 from 5% for 1993
primarily due to improvements in inventory management and the loss of $14
million in revenues from the former customer whose contribution to gross margin
was only 3%.
19
<PAGE>
Operating expenses increased from $1.94 million during 1993 to $2.16
million during 1994. The increase in expenses resulted primarily from the
relocation of the Company's Albany operations to much larger facilities, higher
compensation to the Company's sales personnel commensurate with the increase in
gross margin, and increasing servicing operations with the addition of more
technically oriented personnel. Interest and other income was $115,300 in 1994
compared to $38,200 in 1993. Interest expense was $48,000 in 1994 compared to
$69,000 in 1993. The changes in interest expense reflect changes in the levels
of notes payable and short-term borrowings and long-term debt outstanding as
well as interest rate changes during the respective periods.
The Company's effective tax rate decreased by 37% from 1993 to 1994 due to
a loss in 1994. The Company lost $310,000 in 1994 versus a profit of $133,600 in
1993 due to the factors discussed above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's cash position was $441,462 at June 30, 1995, an increase of
$219,003 as compared to June 30, 1994. The Company's working capital at June 30,
1995 was $1,027,436 as compared to a working capital deficit of $77,700 at June
30, 1994. Net cash used by operating activities was $336,699 for the year ended
June 30, 1995 as compared to $374,189 used in 1994. Accounts receivable and
inventory increased approximately $1.7 and $0.5 million, respectively, as
compared to June 30, 1994 as a result of companies acquired in 1995. In
addition, to support the Company's expanded operations, other current assets
increased by $196,492.
Cash used in investing activities totalled $197,328, of which $22,528 was
used to acquire two businesses and to purchase property and equipment amounting
to $38,384. Additional goodwill expenses relating to the Hillside acquisition
was $156,475. Cash provided by financing activities was $753,030 substantially
all of which were provided by related parties.
To accommodate the Company's financial needs for inventory financing,
Deutsche Financial Service (formally ITT Commercial Finance) has granted a
credit line of $3.25 million. At June 30, 1995, indebtedness of the Company to
Deutsche Financial was $1.7 million compared to $0.7 million at June 30, 1994.
Substantially, all of subsidiary company tangible and intangible assets are
pledged as collateral for this facility.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
--------------------------------------
On April 18, 1996, ATEC Group, Inc. (the "Registrant") engaged Weinick,
Sanders & Co. LLP ("WS") to audit the Registrant's consolidated financial
statements for the year ended June 30, 1996. The decision to change independent
auditors was recommended and approved by the Company's Board of Directors.
The accounting firm of Yohalem Gillman & Company, ("Yohalem"), which served
as the Registrant's independent auditor for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995
was dismissed by the Registrant on April 17, 1996. On June 28, 1995 the
Registrant's independent auditor for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994
Bianculli, Pascale & Company, P.C. ("B&P"), was dismissed by the Registrant.
Yohalem's and B&P's services for each such year included the audit of the
Registrant's consolidated financial statements and other services related to
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. During the Registrant's two
most recent fiscal years and the interim periods up until the date of dismissal
of Yohalem, the Registrant had no disagreements with Yohalem and/or B&P and
there were no "reportable events", as defined in Items 304(a)(1)(iv) and (v) of
Regulation S-K involving the Registrant, Yohalem and/or B&P on matters of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing
scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of such auditors,
would have caused them to make reference to such matters in their respective
reports with the exception of a disagreement with Yohalem on the proposed
accounting method to be applied to the Registrant's proposed acquisition of
Innovative Business Micros, Inc., ("Innovative"). The proposed acquisition of
Innovative comtemplated the payment to Innovative Shareholders of shares of the
Company's common stock over a three year period depending upon performance
criteria ("Initial Acquisition Term"). Innovative was owned by Surinder Rametra
and Ashok Rametra the Company's principal executive officer and principal
financial officer, respectively, and their brother, Rajnish Rametra. Surinder
and Ashok Rametra owned 25% of the common stock and Rajnish Rametra owned 75%.
Surinder Rametra gives direction and guidance to Rajnish Rametra for the
operations of Innovative. A member of the board of directors discussed the
matter with the Yohalem. The Company has authorized Yohalem to respond fully to
the inquiries of WS concerning the subject matter of the disagreement. The
accountant's reports on the Registrant's financial statements for the years
ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer
of opinion nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principles.
Management was of the opinion that APB 16 did not apply to the Initial
Acquisition Term. APB 16, paragraph 5 excludes transfers and exchanges between
companies under common control and assets and liabilities would be accounted for
at historical cost in a manner similar to that in pooling of interests
accounting
21
<PAGE>
(AIN APB 16.#39). Management also consulted with the AICPA's technical
hotline prior to formulating their opinion on the appropriate accounting.
Yohalem, the Company's former independent accountants has expressed
reservations concerning accounting method applied in the pro forma financial
presentations included in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K dated April
1, 1996 based on the Initial Acquisition Terms and the application of this
method to the pro forma financial statements to be included in a proposed
amendment to the Registrant's pending registration statement on Form S-1.
Yohalem believed, based on a literal reading of the applicable authoritative
accounting standards, that the proposed accounting for Innovative based on the
Initial Acquisition Terms was not in accordance with those accounting standards,
as currently written, inasmuch as the Rametra family did not own a majority of
the voting shares of the Company before the acquisition. Yohalem is aware the
Financial Accounting Standards Board is reconsidering the requirements for
consolidations and, accordingly have suggested that the company discuss this
matter with the staff of the SEC.
The Company had requested WS's views on the proposed accounting for the
Innovative transaction based on the Initial Acquisition Terms. Based on the
facts as they existed at that point in time, it was their view that APB 16 did
not apply and the appropriate accounting would be the carryover of Innovative's
cost.
In June 1996 the Company negotiated new acquisition terms ("New Acquisition
Terms") with the Rametras, pursuant to which the Company would acquire 100% of
Innovative's shares in exchange for 4,900,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock all of which shares were payable at the Closing of the Acquisition. The
New Acquisition Terms did not involve the payment of any future consideration to
the Innovative Shareholders. In June 1996 the Acquisition was consummated based
on the New Acquisition Terms. The Company, in concurrence with WS will account
for the Acquisition as a pooling of interests.

keyboards and other peripheral products. The Company also sells a vast number of
different software packages for both IBM compatible and Apple applications. The
software products include packages which serve a variety of businesses, personal
productivity, utility, educational and entertainment needs of today's consumers.
The primary business market segments which the Company targets are
businesses, professionals and government agencies who are in need of computer
hardware and software integration and related support services. In connection
with the sale of hardware and software products, the Company offers a full
spectrum of services and support which management believes is of critical
importance in the current market environment. The Company believes that computer
systems have become too complex for a purchaser to be able to take it home, take
it out of the box, plug it in, and run it without experiencing problems.
Moreover, the integration of networks, fax/modem, CD Rom and on-line systems has
necessitated a market of technical support and continued customer relations
after the sale. The Company believes that most consumers and business users do
not possess the time to investigate and locate the various computer components
necessary to establish an integrated computer system and therefore, strives to
provide "one-stop solutions" to their customers' computer needs in a cost
effective manner.
During the year ended June 30, 1995 and the nine months ended March 31,
1996 Computer Discount Warehouse ("CDW") was the only customer of the Company
that accounted for 10% or more of the Company's consolidated sales. Sales to CDW
represented approximately 18% of total revenues.
The Company advertises its products and services to businesses by
distributing brochures, direct mail solicitation, print advertisement and
participation in seminars, presentations and trade shows. The Company's
marketing strategy is to educate business customers as to the Company's ability
to provide a "one-stop solution" to all its computer needs from the initial
23
<PAGE>
purchase and installation processes through required service and future
expansion requirements. The Company strives to quickly respond to its customers'
continually changing environment by providing flexible and economic solutions to
a user's need to expand and upgrade computer systems and applications.
Since the acquisition by the Company of MCS and SCSI, the Company has been
actively engaged in seeking the purchase of additional entities engaged in the
computer integration business. Consistent with such goals the Company acquired
ACS and CONY. The Company is actively seeking additional acquisition candidates.
In June 1996, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of Innovative Business Micros, Inc. ("Innovative"), a New York
corporation engaged in computer systems integration business. Innovative's
computer facility is located at 90 Adams Avenue, Happauge, New York 11788.
Innovative's principal shareholders are Rajnish Rametra, Ashok Rametra and
Surinder Rametra (collectively the "Shareholders"). Messrs. Ashok and Surinder
Rametra are the officers, directors and principal shareholders of the Company.
Rajnish is the brother of Surinder and Ashok. The consideration for the
Company's acquisition of Innovative was the issuance to the Shareholders of an
aggregate of 4,900,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock. Innovative and
Rajnish Rametra intend to enter into a three year employment agreement pursuant
to which Mr. Rametra will serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Innovative at
an annual salary of $125,000 per year subject to annual increases. Mr. Rametra
will also be provided with major medical health coverage as well as other
benefits.
There can be no assurance that future acquisitions will occur. In light of
the fact that the transaction is a non-arms-length one, the Company has incured
pro-forma financial statements reflecting the effect on the Company's financial
statements of the acquisition of Innovative as well as two year historical
audited financials on behalf of Innovative (see "Financial Statements pages F-53
to F-65.
While the Company does not presently have any other letters of intent
and/or definitive agreements to acquire any specific computer companies, the
Company constantly searches for potential acquisition candidates. The Company
desires to build a network of computer businesses through acquisitions in order
to achieve the benefits of economies of scale in its operations by realizing
more preferential buying terms with reduced fixed overhead costs.
The inventory of the Company consists of products sold by the Company in
the regular course of its business. At June 30, 1995 inventory was approximately
$1,400,000. The Company is aware that as a result of rapidly changing technology
in the computer field, and the consistent introduction of new products, there is
a significant risk that inventory can be rendered obsolete or its value greatly
reduced. The Company's strategy regarding minimizing this risk focuses on
limiting the time in which products remain in inventory by purchasing products
which the Company believes, based upon information from its customers, will be
promptly purchased as well as the negotiation, on a case by case basis, of
return privileges with vendors.
24
<PAGE>
The Company's subsidiaries have entered into numerous vendor and dealer
agreements regarding the sale of hardware and software products. The Company
purchased approximately 33% of its hardware and software products from Data-Go,
a division of Computerland Corporation (hereafter called "Computerland") during
the year ended June 30, 1995. Computerland, as well as Ingram Micro, American
P.C. and Intelligence Electronics are the only vendors who accounted for 10% or
more of the purchases of the Company. In addition to its agreements with
Computerland, the Company has dealer/vendor agreements with Ingram, Merisel,
Intelligence Electronics, Micro Age and Tech Data. The majority of these
agreements may be canceled upon short term notice to the Company in the event
that minimum purchases are not made and for other reasons. The Company has not
in the past had any vendor/dealer agreement terminated, except those which the
Company desired to terminate. The Company did not experience any material
difficulties in obtaining products from its vendors during its prior year. The
Company believes that other suppliers would be able to adequately service the
Company's needs in the event that its existing vendor/dealer agreements were
terminated.
Competition
-----------
The microcomputer market is very competitive, as the Company competes
directly with a variety of local and national distributors, super stores,
retailers, mail order houses and other entities who offer computer products and
services. Many of the computer manufacturers offer their products for sale
directly through mail order distribution. Many of the Company's competitors
possess greater financial, purchasing and marketing resources. The Company seeks
to compete with its competitors based upon the Company's commitment to provide
its customers with complete computer services rather than merely upon the price
of hardware and software. While the Company attempts to competitively price
hardware and software items, management believes that the Company's principal
strength is its ability to offer customers complete solutions to their
individualized computer needs, including top-quality system design, installation
and technical support service. During the year ended June 30, 1995, the
Company's service related activities accounted for approximately 2% of total
revenues.
Seasonality
-----------
The Company does not experience any material seasonal trends in its
operations except for approximately 10% sales increases during the months of
October, November and December and approximately 5% sales decreases during the
months of January, February, March, July, August and September.
Backlog
-------
The Company does not have a significant backlog as it normally delivers and
installs the computer products purchased by its customers within a short time of
the date of order. Accordingly, the Company does not believe that backlog is
material to the Company's business or indicative of future sales.
25
<PAGE>
Governmental Regulation and Contracts
-------------------------------------
The Company believes that it is in material compliance with federal and
state laws and regulations which are applicable to its operations. The Company
is not a party to any government contract which represents a material portion of
the Company's revenues or which, if terminated or renegotiated, would have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business.
Patents and Trademarks
----------------------
The Company does not currently rely upon the use of any patents and/or
trademarks in connection with its operations except for references in
advertising materials as an authorized dealer or vendor of specific products of
manufacturers with whom they have agreements. The Company believes however that
the ability to identify itself as the authorized dealer of such manufacturers is
an important aspect of their marketing strategy.
Employees
---------
As of the date of this Registration Statement, the Company had an aggregate
of approximately 50 employees, including its 6 administrators, 11 staff persons,
three store managers, 17 fulltime sales persons, 8 technical and 5 warehouse
personnel. The Company has no collective bargaining agreements and believes the
relations with their employees are good.
Properties
----------
The Company's headquarters and executive offices are located at 1952
Jericho Turnpike, East Northport, New York 11731. This location also serves as
SCSI's retail facility. These premises, consisting of approximately 3,300 square
feet, are leased pursuant to a lease expiring in 1998 providing for annual
rental payments of approximately $35,000 per year, plus certain expenses and
taxes. MCS maintains a retail location and warehouse facility in Albany, New
York, consisting of approximately 8,050 square feet. The Albany facility lease
expires on June 30, 2003 and requires annual rental payments of $96,600 through
1998 and $108,192 thereafter, plus all expenses and taxes attributable to the
operation of the premises. The Albany facility is leased from former
stockholders of SCSI and MCS. ACS operates from leased premises located at 143
West 29th Street, New York, New York 10011. This location occupies 4,000 square
feet and requires annual rental payments of $39,000, plus certain expenses.
CONY's operating premises is located at 28 Ninth Street, Norwalk, Connecticut
06851. This location is leased by CONY pursuant to a three year lease expiring
in 1997 and consists of approximately 2,000 square feet. This lease requires
annual payments of approximately $24,000 per year plus other expenses.
The Company believes that its current facilities are suitable for its
present and projected needs. The Company does not own any real property.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
Transactions Between Sun and the Former MCS and SCSI Shareholders
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The following transaction between the Company, Surinder Rametra Ashok
Rametra, MCS `and SCSI took place in connection` with the Company's acquisition
of MCS and SCSI and the issuance by the Company of in excess of 90% of the
Company's then outstanding voting securities.
Agreements Between Sun, SCSI and MCS Shareholders
-------------------------------------------------
In November 1993 Surinder Rametra the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman
of the Company began discussions with Raghbir Lambda, the sole director,
shareholder and controlling person of Sun Corporation (2000) Limited ("Sun").
Mr. Rametra and Mr. Lambda have known each other since 1990. Mr. Rametra at such
time was both shareholder of SCSI and MCS and a member of the Board of Directors
of both of such companies. The Company has been advised that Sun is engaged in
the business of investing in private and public companies. Mr. Rametra and Mr.
Lambda discussed the potential purchase by Sun of 100% of both MCS and SCSI.
Various negotiations ensued between the parties and a verbal agreement was
reached regarding the terms of sale of MCS and SCSI to Sun for an aggregate
maximum purchase price of $10,000,000 payable in securities of a publicly traded
company. In accordance with the verbal agreement, Mr. Rametra on behalf of the
SCSI and MCS Shareholders would have the right to approve or disapprove the
securities of a particular public company as payment for the MCS and SCSI
Shares. Accordingly, during the period from November 1993 through May 1994,
Messrs. Rametra and Lambda discussed potential transactions involving the
delivery by Sun to the MCS and SCSI Shareholders of the Shares of various public
companies. In May 1994 discussions began regarding the sale by Sun of the MCS
and SCSI shares to the Company. Mr. Rametra agreed to accept the securities of
the Company on behalf of the MCS and SCSI Shareholders, as suitable for payment
of the MCS and SCSI purchase price. At such time the verbal agreement reached
between Sun and Mr. Rametra on behalf of the MCS and SCSI shareholders in 1993
was memorialized.
Surinder Rametra and related parties (the "SCSI Shareholders") sold 100% of
the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of SCSI to Sun. In
consideration for the SCSI Shares, Sun was required to deliver to the SCSI
Shareholders shares of a publicly traded Company's common stock ("Public
Shares") with a market value of $2,000,000 over a two year period. Sun is also
required to deliver to the SCSI Shareholders (i) for a period of three years,
Public Shares with a value of $500,000 payable upon SCSI reporting audited
revenues in an amount equal to or greater than $15,000,000 for the first year
and 10% growth thereafter; and (ii) for a period of three years additional
Public Shares with a value of $500,000 payable upon receipt of audited pre-tax
income on behalf of SCSI equal to or greater than $400,000 for the first year
with 10% growth thereafter. Sun agreed that in the event it entered into any
further agreement to sell the SCSI shares prior to the payment of all
compensation to the SCSI Shareholders, Sun
37
<PAGE>
would hold the consideration received by it for the SCSI shares (up to the
amount owed to the SCSI Shareholder) for the benefit of the SCSI shareholders.
In the event of a default by Sun in the payment of any compensation to the SCSI
shareholders all consideration held by Sun 2000 from the sale of SCSI shares to
a third party would be immediately deliverable to the SCSI Shareholders. In
partial satisfaction of its obligations to the SCSI Shareholders, Sun has
delivered shares of Series B Preferred Stock convertible into shares of common
stock of the Company to Essential Metals Industry Inc. ("EMI"), a company that
is an affiliate of the SCSI Shareholders and the Company's President, Ashok
Rametra. The shares delivered to EMI were acquired by Sun upon the sale by Sun
to the Company of the SCSI shares as well as 100% of the issued and outstanding
shares of MCS. Sun is required to deliver to the SCSI Shareholders the balance
of the Public Shares described above.
Surinder Rametra, Ashok Rametra (the Company's President), Rajnish Rametra,
Vijay Rametra and Harry L. Gupta (the "MCS Shareholders") sold 100% of the
issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of MCS Inc. ("MCS") to Sun. Ashok
Rametra, Rajnish Rametra, and Vijay Rametra are the brothers of Surinder
Rametra. Harry L. Gupta is the brother-in-law of Surinder and Ashok Rametra. In
consideration for the MCS Shares, Sun was required to deliver to the MCS
Shareholders shares of a publicly traded Company's common stock ("Public
Shares") with a market value of $2,000,000 over a two year period. Sun is also
required to deliver to the MCS Shareholders (i) for a period of three years
Public Shares with a value of $500,000 payable upon MCS reporting audited
revenues in an amount equal to or greater than $15,000,000 for the first year
and 10% growth thereafter; and (ii) for a period of three years additional
Public Shares with a value of $500,000 payable upon receipt of audited pre-tax
income on behalf of MCS equal to or greater than $400,000 for the first year
with 10% growth thereafter. Sun agreed that in the event it entered into any
further agreement to sell the MCS shares prior to the payment of all
compensation to the MCS Shareholders, Sun would hold the consideration received
by it for the MCS shares (up to the amount owed to MCS Shareholders) for the
benefit of the MCS Shareholders. In the event of a default by Sun in the payment
of any compensation to the MCS Shareholders, all consideration held from the
sale of MCS shares to a third party would be immediately deliverable to the MCS
Shareholders. In partial satisfaction of its obligation to the MCS Shareholders,
Sun has delivered shares of Series B Preferred Stock of the Company convertible
into common stock of the Company to EMI, a company that is an affiliate of Ashok
Rametra and Surinder Rametra. The shares delivered to EMI were acquired by Sun
upon the sale by Sun to the Company of the SCSI and MCS shares. Sun is required
to deliver to the MCS Shareholders the balance of the Public Shares described
above.
As further partial payments to the MCS and SCSI Shareholders, Sun delivered
to such holders in May 1995 an aggregate of an additional 1,653.8 shares of
Series B Preferred Stock representing 400,000 shares of the Company's common
stock. The Company's Board has agreed to exchange these shares of the Company's
common stock held by MCS and SCSI Shareholders for a new class of Series I
Preferred Stock with an aggregate par value of $2,000,000. The Series I
Preferred Stock will be convertible into $2,000,000 of the Company's common
stock commencing in July 1996 based upon the average of the Company's bid and
asked prices for shares of common stock as reported in the over-the-counter
market during the
38
<PAGE>
ten day trading period preceding July 1, 1996 ("Exchange Price"). In the
event that the Exchange Price is less than the average of the bid and asked
prices for the Company's common stock during the ten day trading period prior to
December 31, 1996, additional common shares will be issued so that an aggregate
of $2,000,000 in shares of common stock will be delivered upon conversion of all
Series I Shares. Each share of Series I Preferred Stock possesses one vote.
In August 1995 Sun and the MCS and SCSI shareholders entered into an
agreement pursuant to which all obligations owed by Sun to such shareholders
were satisfied by Sun's transfer to the MCS and SCSI shareholders of an
aggregate of 5,312.9 shares of Series B Preferred Stock representing 1,284,978
shares of the Company's Common Stock. These shares were ultimately converted
into 84,978 common shares and the right to receive 800,000 shares of a new
Series J Preferred Stock with an aggregate par value of $4,000,000, 400,000
shares of a new class of Series K Preferred Stock with an aggregate par value of
$2,000,000. The Series J Preferred Stock will be convertible into $4,000,000 of
the Company's Common Stock commencing in July 1997 based upon the average of the
bid and ask prices for shares of the Company's Common Stock as reported in the
over-the-counter market during the ten trading days preceding July 1, 1997
("1997 Exchange Price"). In the event that the 1997 Exchange Price is less than
the average of the bid and ask prices for the Company's Common Stock during the
ten day trading period prior to December 31, 1997, additional common shares will
be issued so that an aggregate of $4,000,000 in shares of Common Stock will be
delivered upon conversion of all Series J Preferred Stock. The Series K
Preferred Stock will be convertible into $2,000,000 of the Company's Common
Stock commencing in July 1998 based upon the average of the Company's bid and
ask prices for shares of Common Stock as reported in the over-the-counter market
during the ten day trading period preceding July 1, 1998 ("1998 Exchange
Price"). In the event that the 1998 Exchange Price is less than the average of
the bid and ask prices for the Company's Common Stock during the ten day trading
period prior to December 31, 1998, additional Common Shares will be issued so
that an aggregate of $2,000,000 in shares of Common Stock will be delivered upon
conversion of all Series J Shares. Each share of Series J and Series K Preferred
Stock possess one vote.
The Stock Acquisition Agreement
-------------------------------
In June 1994 pursuant to a stock acquisition agreement ("Acquisition
Agreement") the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock
of SCSI and MCS in exchange for the issuance by the Company of 94,431 shares of
its common stock and 30,900 Series B Preferred Stock. Each share of Series B
Preferred Stock is entitled to 241.86 votes per share and is convertible into
common stock at the rate of 241.86 shares of common stock. Accordingly, the
holders of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock possess voting control over
the Company. Upon closing of the Acquisition Agreement, Surinder Rametra was
appointed Chairman of the Board of the Company, Chief Executive Officer and
Secretary and Surinder's brother, Ashok Rametra became the President, Treasurer,
Chief Financial Officer and a Director of the Company. As described above upon
closing of the Acquisition Agreement EMI received
39
<PAGE>
from Sun 2000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock convertible into 1,034,971
shares of the Company's common stock.
Transactions with Robert Martire
--------------------------------
In connection with the acquisition by the Company of SCSI and MCS, the
Company's prior sole officer and director, Robert Martire agreed to resign his
position with the Company. In connection with his resignation Mr. Martire
received certain payments in satisfaction and termination of his employment
agreement and other obligations with the Company. Mr. Martire's Employment
Agreement required the Company to pay to him an annual salary of $260,000 per
year through July 31, 1997. Accordingly, the Company was obligated to make
further payments to Mr. Martire of approximately $540,000 under the terms of the
Employment Agreement. The Company believed that it was in its best interests to
have the Employment Agreement terminated and make to Mr. Martire the following
payments in settlement of all claims which Mr. Martire possessed against the
Company. Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement and subsequent
arrangements, the Company paid Mr. Martire the following: (i) the sum of
$100,000; (ii) 88,968 post-split shares of the Company's common stock (which
shares the Company agreed to register under an S-8 Registration Statement) at
the time such shares were issued the bid price of the Company's common stock was
$3.125; and (iii) 250,000 shares of stock of a NASDAQ small cap market company
valued at $200,000. The Company was required to pay to Mr. Martire the
difference between proceeds realized upon the sale of Sun stock and $150,000.
Since the sales proceeds realized by Mr. Martire on the sale of such securities
were only $77,522, the Company was required to deliver to Mr. Martire an
additional $72,425, $18,475 of such sum was paid on June 1, 1995 and $9,000 on
August 11, 1995. The total dollar figure attributable to payments made to Mr.
Martire (valuing the 88,968 post split shares referred to in (ii) above at
$3.125 per share) was $528,025. In December 1995 the Company and Mr. Martire
agreed to settle all sums due and owning to Mr. Martire through the issuance of
60,000 Shares of the Company's Common Stock, which shares have been registered
for resale pursuant to this Prospectus.

agreement whereby Mr. Bathla is to serve as

<PAGE>

also be entitled to receive a mandatory stock bonus payable in connection with
the delivery of financial statements indicating specified levels of annual

stock of the Company upon demonstration that ACS meets specified minimum levels
of annual revenues and pre-tax income. In July 1995 Mr. Bathla's Series F and G

Stock.
The Company also guaranteed payment by ACS to Mr. Bathla of an aggregate of
$750,000 together with 10% interest thereon by December 31, 1997. As of June 30,
1995 and March 31, 1996, the balance owed by ACS to Mr. Bathla was $396,246 and
$397,244 respectively. ACS and the Company entered into a verbal agreement
whereby the Company agreed to provide corporate services such as product
purchasing, customer referrals and general management advisory services on
behalf of ACS. The Company was compensated at the rate of $250 per hour for such
services plus 75% of increases in ACS' gross margins which resulted from such
services. The total amount earned by the Company in this regard at December 31,
1994 was $200,000. Of such amount $120,000 was for general management advisory
service and the balance of $80,000 from improvements to ACS' gross margins. The
agreement continued until the closing of the Company's acquisition of ACS.

Transactions with Innovative Business Micros Inc.
-------------------------------------------------
In June, 1996, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of
Innovative Business Micros, Inc., a computer integrator located in Long Island.
Innovative was formerly owned by Surinder Rametra and Ashok Rametra, the
Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer
respectively, and Rajnish Rametra the brother of Surinder and Ashok. The
consideration for the acquisition was the issuance by the Company of an
aggregate of 4,900,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock to the former
shareholders of Innovative. The terms of the acquisition were not negotiated in

Possible Anti-Takeover Effects of Authorized But Unissued Stock
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
The Company has significant shares of authorized but unissued capital
stock. One of the effects of the existence of authorized but unissued capital
stock may be to enable the Board of Directors to render more difficult or to
discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a merger,
tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity
of the Company's management. If in the due exercise of its fiduciary
obligations, for example, the Board of Directors were to determine that a
takeover proposal was not in the Company's best interests, such shares could be
issued by the Board of Directors without stockholder approval in one or more
private placements or other transactions that might prevent or render more
difficult or costly the completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the
voting or other rights of the proposed acquiror or insurgent stockholder or
stockholder group, by creating a substantial voting block in institutional or
other hands that might undertake to support the position of the incumbent Board
of Directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the
takeover, or otherwise. In this regard, the Company's Articles of Incorporation
grant the Board of Directors broad power to establish the rights and preferences
of the authorized and unissued Preferred Stock, one or more series of which
could be issued entitling holders to vote separately as a class on any proposed
merger or share exchange, to convert Preferred Stock into a large number of
shares of Common Stock or other securities, to demand redemption at a specified
price under prescribed circumstances related to a change in control, or to
exercise other rights designed to impede a takeover.
Certain Charter and Bylaws Provisions
- -------------------------------------
Limitation of Liability
The Company's Amended Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated
Bylaws limit the liability of directors and officers to the maximum extent
permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that directors of a corporation
will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary
duties as directors, including gross negligence, except liability for (i) breach
of the directors' duty of loyalty; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or
which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, (iii)
the unlawful payment of a dividend or unlawful stock purchase or redemption, and
(iv) any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal
benefit. Delaware law does not permit a corporation to eliminate a director's
duty of care, and this provision of the Company's Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation has no effect on the availability of equitable
remedies, such as injunction or rescission, based upon a director's breach of
the duty of care.
The Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes
the Company to purchase and maintain insurance for the purposes of
indemnification. At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding
involving any director, officer, employee or agent
53
<PAGE>
for which indemnification will be required or permitted under the Company's
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Amended and Restated Bylaws
or indemnification agreements. The Company is not aware of any threatened
litigation or proceeding which may result in a claim for such indemnification.

The Company is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law ("Section 203"). Under Section 203, certain "business
combinations" between a Delaware corporation whose stock generally is publicly
traded or held of record by more than 2,000 stockholders and an "interested
stockholder" are prohibited for a three-year period following the date that such
stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless (i) the corporation has
elected in its original certificate of incorporation not to be governed by
Section 203 (the Company did not make such an election) (ii) the business
combination was approved by the Board of Directors of the corporation before the
other party to the business combination became an interested stockholder (iii)
upon consummation of the transaction that made it an interested stockholder, the
interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation
outstanding at the commencement of the transaction (excluding voting stock owned
by directors who are also officers or held in employee benefit plans in which
the employees do not have a confidential right to render or vote stock held by
the plan) or, (iv) the business combination was approved by the Board of
Directors of the corporation and ratified by two-thirds of the voting stock
which the interested stockholder did not own. The three-year prohibition also
does not apply to certain business combinations proposed by an interested
stockholder following the announcement or notification of certain extraordinary
transactions involving the corporation and a person who had not been an
interested stockholder during the previous three years or who became an
interested stockholder with the approval of the majority of the corporation's
directors. The term "business combination" is defined generally to include
mergers or consolidations between a Delaware corporation and an "interested
stockholder," transactions with an "interested stockholder" involving the assets
or stock of the corporation or its majority-owned subsidiaries and transactions
which increase an interested stockholder's percentage ownership of stock. The
term "interested stockholder" is defined generally as a stockholder who,
together with affiliates and associates, owns (or, within three years prior, did
own) 15% or more of a Delaware corporation's voting stock. Section 203 could
prohibit or delay a merger, takeover or other change in control of the Company
and therefore could discourage attempts to acquire the Company.
Stockholder Meetings and Other Provisions
- -----------------------------------------
Under the Amended and Restated By-laws, special meetings of the
stockholders of the Company may be called only by the Company's President or by
the Company's President and Secretary at the request of a majority of the
members of the Board of Directors. Stockholders are required to comply with
certain advance notice provisions with respect to any nominations
54
<PAGE>
of candidates for election to the Company's Board of Directors or other
proposals submitted for stockholder vote. These provisions may have the effect
of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of
the Company.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
- ----------------------------
The Transfer Agent and Registrar for the Common Stock is North American
Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 147 West Merrick Road, Freeport, New York,
11520.
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
As of the date of the Prospectus the Company had outstanding 18,443,462
shares of Common Stock. In addition upon exercise in full of the Warrants an
additional 2,900,000 shares of Common Stock will be outstanding. A significant
portion of these shares, and all shares issued on exercise of the Warrants will

Securities Act except for any shares purchased by an "affiliate" of the Company,
which will be subject to the limitations of Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act ("Rule 144"). The balance of outstanding shares may not be
publicly sold unless they are registered under the Securities Act or is sold
pursuant to an applicable exemption from registration, inducing an exemption
pursuant to Rule 144.
In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons
whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned shares of Common Stock
for at least two years, including persons who are "affiliates" of the Company,
would be entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of shares that

Stock of the Company (shares immediately after the Offering assuming no exercise
of the Over-Allotment Option), or (ii) the average weekly trading volume of the
Common Stock during the four calendar weeks preceding a sale by such person.
Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to certain manner-of-sale provisions,
notice requirements and the availability of current public information about the
Company. Under Rule 144, however, a person who has held shares of Common Stock
for a minimum of three years and who is not, and for the three months prior to
the sale of such shares has not been, an affiliate of the company is free to
sell such shares without regard to the volume, manner-of-sale and certain other
limitations contained in Rule 144.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On March 4, 1994, the Company settled a class action suit commenced in the
United States District Court, Southern District of New York against it on
October 14, 1993. The suit alleged numerous claims against the Company
including allegations of material misstatements and/or omissions from the
Company's initial public offering prospectus dated February 1993 as well as
improprieties concerning the filing of certain registration statements under
Form S-8. The settlement of such action was approved by the District Court on
June 6, 1994. In full settlement of all claims made against the Company in the
class action suit, Hillside agreed to
55
<PAGE>
issue a total of 350,000 shares of Series C Preferred stock and five year
warrants to purchase an aggregate of 350,000 additional shares of common stock
at $3.00 per share to the class action claimants. Hillside also assigned all of
its rights to the class action claimants regarding claims against other
defendants in the suit. Each ten shares of Series C Preferred Stock will be
convertible into one share of the Company's common stock for a period of five
years from its date of issuance. The Company is in the process of issuing such
shares and warrants.
In May 1994, Brown Raysman & Millstein ("Brown") commenced an action
against the Company with respect to outstanding fees for general corporate legal
work previously performed by Brown. The summons and complaint were filed in the
New York Supreme Court, New York County. The complaint set forth two causes of
action, one for breach of contract and one for unjust enrichment. Each cause of
action sought damages in the amount of $85,330.31. In September 1995 the parties
agreed to settle this action by the Company's payment to Brown of a total of
$67,500 over an 18 month period in equal monthly installments of $3,750 each.
A third party action was commenced against Atlantic to Pacific Corp. ("AP")
d/b/a Hillside Bedding in the Supreme Court, Bronx County in 1993. The action
results from a claim by one of AP's former workers who was allegedly injured
while operating a forklift during the course of his employment. The worker
commenced an action against the Company which maintained the forklift, Mid
Hudson Clarklift ("MH"), seeking damages of $7,000,000 for the alleged failure
of such company to properly maintain and service the lift. MH instituted a third
party action against AP seeking judgment over and against AP for all or part of
any verdict or judgment which may be obtained against MH. The case is presently
in the discovery stages.
A breach of contract action, Anderson Street Realty Corp. d/b/a Anderson
Street Realty Company v. RHMB New Rochelle Leasing Corp. d/b/a a/k/a Hillside
Bedding and/or Atlantic to Pacific Bedding Corp. d/b/a Hillside Bedding, Index
No. 00360/93 is currently pending in the Supreme Court, Westchester County
relating to a store lease dispute. The claim is in an amount in excess of
$100,000 representing the amount of payments remaining under the lease. The
action is in the early stages of discovery.
An action entitled Steinbock, Braff, Inc. T/A Kat-Nap Products v. Hillside
Bedding, Inc., Index No. 9980-94 was commenced in the Supreme Court, Kings
County for breach of contract involving an inventory dispute whereby plaintiff
demands $61,079.93. The matter is in the discovery stages.
In 1990, an action entitled Bedding Discount Center, Inc., MJR Bedding Co.,
Inc., Hapat Bedding Corp. v. Sid Patterson, Hillside Bedding Corporation and
Robert Martire was brought against the Company in Supreme Court, Nassau County,
Index No. 3720-90. The suit seeks damages in the amount of $1,000,000 for
alleged disclosure of certain trade secrets and confidential information to the
Company, together with punitive damages in the amount of $10,000,000 and similar
monetary damages based upon the allegations that defendants interfered with and
impaired plaintiffs' contractual and business relations and the plaintiffs have
engaged in acts constituting a prima facie tort. The action has been nearly
inactive since commencement.

The Company believes that the action has no merit. There can be no
assurances however that the Company will prevail in any such action.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Board of Directors and Stockholders
Hillside Bedding, Inc. and Subsidiaries
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Hillside
Bedding, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 1994 and the related consolidated
statement of stockholders' equity for the year then ended. we have also audited
the accompanying transitional statements of earnings and cash flows of the

respectively. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit. The consolidated financial statements of Hillside
Bedding, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 1993 and for the year then ended
were audited by other auditors whose report dated August 9, 1993 on those

the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements
of Micro Computer Store, Inc. and Sun Computer and Software, Inc. as of March
31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, respectively, and for the years then ended, were
audited by other auditors whose reports dated August 15, 1994 and August
12, 1994, respectively, expressed unqualified opinions on those statements.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material

related, consolidated statement of stockholders' equity and the transitional
statements of earnings and cash flows of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries

As more fully described in Notes 1A, 1B and 8, on June 23, 1994, Hillside
Bedding, Inc. acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Micro Computer
Store, Inc. and Sun Computer and Software, Inc. These acquisitions, for
accounting purposes, have been treated as a consolidation and merger of Micro
Computer Store, Inc. and Sun Computer and Software, Inc. and an acquisition by
them of Hillside Bedding, Inc. and Subsidiaries because, among other factors,
the assets, revenues and net earnings of Micro Computer Store, Inc. and Sun
Computer and Software, Inc. significantly exceeded those of Hillside Bedding,
Inc. and Subsidiaries and the management of these companies control the Company
after the acquisition.
We have also examined the historical combining statements of earnings and
cash flows and the historical combined schedules, II, IV, and VIII of Micro
Computer Store, Inc. and Sun Computer and Software, Inc. for each of the two
years ended June 30, 1994. These financial statements and schedules give effect
to the consolidation and merger of these companies as discussed in Notes 1A, 1B,
1K and 8 as if their consolidation and merger was effected as of July 1, 1992.
Our examination was made in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, included
such procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
In our opinion, the historical combining statement of operations and cash
flows described above present fairly, in all material respects, the results of
operations and cash flows for the two years ended June 30, 1994 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1995, 1994 AND 1993
Note 1 - General and Accounting Policies
Organization and Presentation of Financial Statements
-----------------------------------------------------
Hillside Bedding, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of
Delaware on on July 17, 1992. Prior to February 1994, Hillside operated a chain
of retail bedding stores and two franchises under the "Hillside Bedding" trade
name. Each store was operated as a separate wholly owned subsidiary.
Hereinafter, Hillside Bedding, Inc. and its wholly owned bedding subsidiaries
are referred to as "Hillside". In 1994, due to recurring losses and substantial
negative working capital, Hillside closed its retail bedding stores.
On June 23, 1994, Hillside Bedding, Inc. acquired, in a stock for stock
transaction, two microcomputer distributors, Sun Computer and Software, Inc.
("SCSI") located in Suffolk County, NY and Micro Computer Store, Inc. ("MCS")
located in Albany, NY. For accounting purposes the acquisition of SCSI and MCS
has been treated as a consolidation and merger of these companies and an
acquisition by them of Hillside, because, among other factors, the assets,
revenues and earnings of MCS and SCSI significantly exceed those of Hillside and
the management of MCS and SCSI controlled the Company subsequent to the
acquisition. These acquisitions resulted in a change in reporting entity for the
Registrant. The legal name has remained Hillside Bedding, Inc. As the
acquisition constituted a change in reporting entity, the combined statements of
operations and cash flows of MCS and SCSI for each of the two years in the
period ended June 30, 1994 have been presently herein as those of the reporting
entity. These combined statements of operations and cash flows do not include
any of the Hillside Bedding, Inc. operations. The consolidated statement of
stockholders' equity for the year ended June 30, 1994 presents Hillside's
changes in stockholders' equity for fiscal 1994 and the accounting effects of
the change in reporting entity.
On February 6, 1995, Hillside Bedding, Inc. acquired all of the stock of
American Computer Systems, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Laptop
Solutions, Inc. ("ACS"), located in New York City. On March 31, 1995, Hillside
Bedding, Inc. acquired all the stock of CONY Computer Corp. ("CONY") located in
Norwalk, CT. The consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the
year ended June 30, 1995 includes the accounts of ACS and CONY since their dates
of acquisition.
Hillside Bedding, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, MCS, SCSI, ACS
and CONY, hereinafter are referred to as the "Company".
Principal Business Activity
- ---------------------------
The Company operates in one industry segment and is engaged primarily in
the sale of computer hardware and software to businesses, professionals,
governmental units and educational institutions. Additionally, the Company sells
hardware and software to the consumer market in New York City, NY, Albany, NY,
East Northport, NY and Norwalk, CT. The Company also provides its customers with
a full spectrum of computer services and technical support; revenues derived
from such services are not significant.

Note 1 - General and Accounting Policies (continued)
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
------------------------------------------
Consolidation Policy
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Hillside Bedding, Inc. and all its wholly owned active subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in,
first-out cost method. Inventories consist of microcomputer hardware, software
and related peripherals and accessories.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost. When assets are sold or
retired, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the
accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income for the period.
The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred;
significant renewals and replacements which substantially extend the lives of
the assets are capitalized.
Depreciation is computed on accelerated methods over useful lives ranging
from 5 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the
useful life of the improvement or the life of the related lease.
Goodwill
Goodwill relating to the acquisition of Hillside has been charged off over
twelve months. Goodwill relating to the acquisitions of CONY and ACS is being
amortized over a period of fifteen years.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue at the time products are shipped to its
customers, or when sales are made on a "cash and carry" basis.

accounting and reporting of income taxes, and requires that deferred tax assets
and liabilities be established at income tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in periods in which the deferred tax liability or asset is expected to be
settled or realized.
Earnings Per Share
The primary loss per share for 1995 has been calculated based on the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Common
stock equivalents (relative to convertible preferred stocks for Series, D, E, F,
and G) were not considered in the primary per share data because their effect
would be anti-dilutive. All the convertible preferred stocks and the contingent
issuances of common stock pursuant to business acquisition and employment
agreements were excluded from the computation of fully diluted per share data
because the effect of their inclusion also would be anti-dilutive (i.e., would
have the effect of reducing loss per share).
Had the conversions of debt and preferred stock in 1995 taken place at the
beginning of the year, the primary loss per share for 1995 would have been
$(.32).
The per share data for 1994 and 1993 has been calculated based on the
weighted average shares outstanding (389,573 shares for each year) and assuming
that the acquisition shares were outstanding for the full period. Fully diluted
earnings per share (8,236,972 shares for each year) are based on the assumption
that all common stock equivalents were converted as of the beginning of the
year.
Reclassification
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1994 and 1993 financial
statements to conform to the 1995 presentation.
Combining Financial Statements and Principles of Combination
The combining statements of operations and cash flows for 1994 and 1993
presents the combined results of operations and cash flows of MCS and those of
SCSI for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 1994. These
financial statements give effect to the consolidation and merger of these
companies (but not Hillside) as if their consolidation and merger was effected
as of July 1, 1992.

Note 2 - Acquisitions
Sun 2000
--------
On June 23, 1994, Hillside, pursuant to the terms of a stock acquisition
agreement with Sun 2000 (a corporation organized under the laws of the British
Virgin Islands) exchanged 94,413 shares (944,131 per-reverse split shares) of
its common stock and 30,900 (309,000 pre-reverse split shares) of its Series B
Convertible voting preferred stock for 100% of the common stock of both SCSI and
MCS. Each of the preferred shares is convertible to 241.86 shares of common
stock and has the equivalent current voting rights for the first two years
subsequent to issuance; thereafter, the conversion ratio is one-to-one with each
preferred share receiving one vote.
The transaction has been accounted for as a consolidation and merger of MCS
and SCSI and an acquisition by these companies of Hillside, because, among other
factors, the assets, revenues and earnings of MCS and SCSI significantly
exceeded those of Hillside and the management of MCS and SCSI control the
Company subsequent to the acquisition. Further, (for the first two fiscal years
subsequent to the acquisition) the voting stockholders of Hillside will have
approximately 5.5% of the voting power of the Company, approximately 13% of the
Company's voting power is controlled by the combination of the former
stockholders of SCSI and the former small stockholder group of MCS. Subsequent
to the end of the two year period, the voting rights of the Series B preferred
stockholders change significantly.
At the date of acquisition, Hillside had liabilities in excess of its
assets in the amount of approximately $900,000. This amount is in effect, Micro
Computer Store, Inc. and Sun computer and Software, Inc.'s cost of the
acquisition. Accordingly, this amount has been included on the consolidated
balance sheet as goodwill as of June 30, 1994. In addition, transaction expenses
amounting to $310,000 were also included in goodwill, resulting in total
goodwill at June 30, 1994 of $1,210,000. The additional cost of $310,000 were
comprised of $110,000 for professional fees and $200,000 for the termination of
an employment agreement with the former CEO of Hillside Bedding, Inc. Of the
professional fees, approximately $50,000 was paid for by the stockholders of Sun
2000 on behalf of the Company.
Preacquisition contingency adjustments and other previously contingent
transaction expenses amounting to approximately $836,000 were recognized during
the year ended June 30, 1995. These were comprised of: $368,000 to terminate
employment agreements with former officers of Hillside, $287,000 of estimated
losses relating to various legal proceedings associated with the former
operations, $125,000 for a finders fee, and $56,000 of various other net items.
These amounts, totalling approximately $2,046,000, have been recorded as
goodwill, which is viewed as organizational costs and have been amortized
entirely during the year ended June 30, 1995.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1995, 1994 AND 1993
Note 3 - Nonmonetary Transaction
In February 1994, Hillside entered into an agreement (expiring in February
1999) with the Intrac Group (a wholesale advertising agency/broker) under which
it exchanged inventory for various credits including advertising and other
business items. These credits have been recorded based on the cost of the
Hillside inventory (management's estimate of the credits' fair market value) of
$548,000 less the cash paid by Intrac of $100,000. These credits can be used by
the Company to purchase various business items including advertising in various
media. The Company must first reimburse Intrac for Intrac's wholesale cost of
the advertising purchased; the Company can then utilize these credits to "pay"
for the difference between Intrac's wholesale cost and the retail value that the
Company would otherwise be required to pay. Management initially determined that
it will either utilize these credits (requiring an estimated $2,250,000 in cash
outlays) or sell them over the next several years. Accordingly, they have been
classified as other non-current assets in the accompanying June 30,1 994
consolidated balance sheet.
In June 1995, the Company tried to utilize a portion of the media
advertising credits and discovered that the cash required was in excess of the
cost of acquiring the product in the market place. The Company now believes that
it would not be economically feasible to devote the effort necessary to utilize
or sell these credits and therefore concludes that the credits are worthless.
Accordingly, they were written off as a direct charge to operations in 1995.
Note 4 - Deferred Sales Tax Obligation
In April 1994, Hillside negotiated a settlement with the New York State
Department of Taxation and Finance regarding certain sales tax obligations
whereby penalties were abated leaving a balance due of approximately $843,000.
The agreement calls for an initial payment of $400,000 (which was paid on April
26, 1994) and subsequent monthly payments of $500 per month commencing November
15, 1994 (of which $3,000 was paid in fiscal year 1995). Interest at 12% per
annum accrues on balances outstanding. Any additional principal payments can be
made at the Company's discretion. The aforementioned agreement provides for the
parties to negotiate a formal deferred payment agreement on any balances
outstanding as of April 25, 1995. The Company is awaiting a proposal from the
taxing authorities.
The balance outstanding at June 30, 1995 amounted to $502,052, including
accrued interest of $61,840.
Note 5 - Equity Securities
Reverse Stock Split
-------------------
On September 9, 1994, the Company split Common, Series A Preferred and
Series B Preferred shares outstanding, issuing one share in exchange for each
ten shares outstanding (a "reverse" split). By action of the board of directors,
the Company did not alter the amounts allocated between the stock accounts and
additional paid-in capital. Per share information has been adjusted
retroactively to reflect the reverse split in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements and related notes.

Note 9 - Litigation
Settlement of Class Action and Commitment to Issue Securities
-------------------------------------------------------------
On March 4, 1994, Hillside agreed to the settlement of a class action suit
commenced on October 14, 1993 which was approved by the Court on June 6, 1994.
The action relates to the filing of a registration statement of February 11,
1993, pursuant to which , the Company offered 310,000 units of securities, and
was based on allegations that the registration statement was misleading and
contained material misstatements and omissions with respect to management, plans
for expansion, advertising, sales and revenues and its use of proceeds of the
offering, financial position and misleading statements in sales by underwriters.
The Class includes an individual both personally and as representative of those
persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the securities of the Company during
the period February 12, 1993 through October 8, 1993 and excludes defendants,
their immediate families and affiliates of the individual and corporate
defendants.

JUNE 30, 1995, 1994 AND 1993
Note 9 - Litigation (continued)
In full settlement of all claims, the Company agreed to issue a total of
350,000 unrestricted shares of Series C Preferred stock and 350,000 warrants to
the claimants. Each share of the Series C Preferred stock shall be convertible
into the Company's Common Stock at the rate of one share of common stock for
each ten shares of Series C Preferred. Each warrant, which is exercisable for a
period of five years from its date of issuance, entitles the holder to purchase
one share of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share (after giving
effect to the one for ten reverse stock split). The issuance of these shares is
pending a proposal to increase the Company's authorized capital. These warrants
have a nominal, if any, value as of June 30, 1995 and 1994. Further, the type,
nature and other terms of these shares were unspecified in the agreement. There
is no certainty as to if or when the Series C Preferred stock and warrant
holders will choose to convert these securities into common stock. Therefore
there is a possibility of further dilution to the existing shareholders that
will not exceed 1/2%.
In addition, Hillside agreed to assign to the Class any and all claims or
courses of action that Hillside has or may have in law or equity against other
defendants in the class action. Any net recovery (after deduction of fees and
expenses) resulting from these claims shall be shared 65% to the Class and 35%
to Hillside.
Based on the foregoing, the Company, as of June 30, 1995, is unable to
determine the cost it will incur as a result of this settlement. In the opinion
of management, based on the advice of counsel, the ultimate outcome of this
settlement will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated
financial statements.
Other Matters
- -------------
Hillside is a defendant in a legal action alleging breach of contract and
unjust enrichment. The plaintiff is a law firm that has provided Hillside
certain legal services. Each of the two causes of action seek damages of
approximately $85,000. During September 1995, the parties agreed to settle this
action by a Company payment to the plaintiffs of a total of $67,000 over an 18
month period in equal monthly installments of $3,750 each.
An action was commenced by Steinback Braff, Inc. for breach of contract
involving and inventory dispute whereby the plaintiff demands $61,080 plus
interest. A motion filed by the Company to dismiss the action is currently
pending.
A landlord, Anderson Street Realty Corp., who held the lease for one of the
bedding stores which was abandoned, commenced an action against Hillside in the
amount of approximately $155,000 plus interest. The action is in the early phase
of discovery.

Prudential Insurance, Inc. has filed a claim against Hillside seeking
$23,000 for a premium claim. Previous arrangements for a settlement payment were
dishonored by the bank. As a result, Prudential is still seeking payment.
An action was commenced by Bestar Ltd. for breach of contract involving an
inventory dispute. As of June 30, 1995, there was a judgment entered against
Hillside amounting to approximately $32,000. An attempt to vacate such judgment
was made without success subsequently to June 30, 1995
Management has estimated that the probable loss at June 30, 1995, relating
to the aforementioned cases will total approximately $287,000, which amount has
been recorded in the 1995 financial statements.
During 1990, a competitor of hillside commenced an action against it and
one of its advertising agents. The complaint seeks $1,000,000 in damages for
alleged disclosure of certain trade secrets, and $10,000,000 in punitive damages
and $10,000,000 based upon allegations that Hillside interfered with and
impaired the competitor's business relations. Management believes that there is
no merit to this action. There have been no motions made with respect to this
case since March 14, 1990.
A third party lawsuit was commenced against Hillside by Mid Hudson
Clarklift as a result of a claim filed against them by a former employee of
Hillside who sustained an injury while operating a forklift. The lawsuit
consists of four causes of action each for $5,000,000 and one cause of action by
the former employee's wife for $2,000,000. The lawsuit is in the early phase of
discovery.
In July 1993, the SEC notified the Company that it was conducting a private
investigation regarding certain transactions which occurred while the Company
operated as a retail bedding business. Counsel has advised that the SEC has not
expanded its inquiry beyond these matters. Although the SEC has not formally
closed the investigation, counsel believes that the investigation will not have
any material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition. The Company's
present management, which had nothing to do with the subject matter of the
inquiry, has cooperated fully with the SEC in this inquiry.

Pursuant to arrangements with the pre-acquisition CEO, he was given,
in 1994, shares of a NASDAQ small cap market stock valued at $200,000 with
downside protection against a reduction in value below $150,000. The value

During the year ended June 30, 1995, one customer accounted for
approximately 18% of the Company's net sales.
Both MCS and SCSI are what is termed in the industry "aggregators" for
Computerland Corporation through its merchandising division Datago. As
aggregators, MCS and SCSI pay for merchandise on a cost plus basis. This is
in contrast to a franchisee who would pay a lesser amount on the initial
purchase but who would be required to pay, in addition to franchise fees,
royalties on all gross sales
During October 1995, MCS signed an agreement which alters its
relationship with Computerland Corporation from that of an aggregator to a
franchisee. During the year ended June 30, 1995, MCS and SCSI purchased

Note 12- Other Financial Information (continued)
Fourth Quarter Adjustments
--------------------------
The Company's quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB for the 1995 fiscal
year are being revised primarily with respect to the charge-off of goodwill
relating to the Hillside acquisition.
The $448,011 media advertising credits referred to in Note 3 were
written off during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995.
Note 13 - Subsequent Events
During August 1995, the Company's board of directors adopted
resolutions providing for the issuance of 800,000 shares of Series J
Preferred Stock, par value $5.00 and 400,000 shares of Series K Preferred
Stock, par value $5.00. Each series of shares is not entitled to any
dividends, except as authorized at the sole discretion of the board of
directors of the Company. The holders of these shares have one vote per
share at all meetings of the shareholders. On the dissolution of the
Company, each Series J and K Preferred shareholder is entitled to $5,00 per
share plus any accrued dividends.
The Series J and K Preferred shares may be exchangeable into shares of
common stock of the Company with an aggregate market value of $4,000,000
and $2,000,000, respectively, during the period July 1, 1997 through
December 31, 1997 for Series J and July 1, 1998 through December 31, 1998
for Series K.
During August 1995, 200,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, 66,800
shares of Series F Preferred Stock and 1 share of Series G Preferred Stock
were converted into 344,119 shares of common stock of the Company.
During August 1995, 5,312.9 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were
converted into 84,978 shares of common stock and the right to receive
800,000 shares of Series J Preferred Stock and 400,000 shares of Series K
Preferred Stock with an aggregate par value of $2,000,000 and $4,000,000,
respectively.
During October 1995, 1,653.8 shares of series B Preferred Stock were
converted into 400,000 shares of common stock which were exchanged into
390,000 shares of Series I Preferred Stock with an aggregate par value of
$2,000,000.
The number of common shares ultimately to be issued on conversion of
the Series I, J and K Preferred Stock will, of course, depend on the future
market price of the common stock at that time. Series I, J and K Preferred
Stocks are considered common stock equivalents for purposes of computing
primary earnings per share and, therefore, could result in a material
dilution of any future income per share.

Hillside agreed to issue a total of 350,000 shares of Series C Preferred stock
and five year warrants to purchase on aggregate of 350,000 additional shares of
common stock at $3.00 per share to the class action claimants. Hillside also
assigned all of its rights to the class action claimants regarding claims
against other defendants in the suit. Each ten shares of Series C Preferred
Stock will be convertible into one share of the Company's common stock for a
period of five years from its date of issuance. The Company intends to issue

action, one for breach of contact and one for unjust enrichment. During
September 1995, the parties agreed to settle this action by a Company's payment
to Brown of a total of $67,500 over an 18 month period in equal monthly
installments of $3,750 each.

d/b/a Hillside Bedding in the Supreme Court, Bronx County in 1993. The action
results from a claim by one of AP's former workers who was allegedly injured
while operating a forklift during the course of his employment. The worker
commenced an action against the Company which maintained the forklift, Mid
Hudson Clarklift ("MH"), seeking damages of $7,000,000 for the alleged failure
of such company to properly maintain and service the lift. MH instituted a third
party action against AP seeking judgment over and against AP for all or part of
any verdict or judgment which may be obtained against MH. The case is presently

currently pending.
In 1990, an action entitled Bedding Discount Center, Inc., MJR Bedding Co.,
Inc., Hapat Bedding Corp. v. Sid Patterson, Hillside Bedding Corporation and
Robert Martire was brought against the Company in Supreme Court, Nassau County,
Index No. 3720-90. The suit seeks damages in the amount of $1,000,000 for
alleged disclosure of certain trade secrets and confidential information to the
Company, together with punitive damages in the amount of $10,000,000 and similar
monetary damages based upon the allegations that defendants interfered with and
impaired plaintiffs' contractual and business relations and the plaintiffs have
engaged in acts constituting a prima facie tort. The action has been nearly
inactive since commencement. The Company believes that the action has no merit.
There can be no assurances however that the Company will prevail in any such
action.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1: General and Accounting Policies
-------------------------------
Innovative Business Micros, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of
New York on February 1, 1986 and began its operations on June 1, 1987.
Principal Business Activity:
The company operates in one industry segment and is engaged primarily in the
sale of computer hardware and software to businesses, and professional
health care facilities. The Company also provides its customers with a full
spectrum of computer services and technical support; revenues derived from such
services are insignificant.
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in,
first-out method. Inventories consist of microcomputer hardware, software and
related peripherals and accessories.
Property and Equipment:
Property and equipment are carried at cost. When assets are sold or
retired the cost and related accumulation of depreciation are eliminated from
the accounts, and any gain or loss is reflected in income for the period. the
cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred; significant
renewals and replacements which substantially extend the lives of the assets are
capitalized.
Depreciation is computed on accelerated methods over useful lives ranging
from 5 to 7 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the

b. Financial Statement Schedules.
The following Financial Statement schedules are included as exhibits to the
Registration Statement:
(i) Schedule II - Accounts Receivable from Related Parties and
Underwriter, Promoters, and Employees Other than Related Parties
(ii) Schedule IV - Indebtedness of and to Related Parties - Not Current
(iii) Schedule VIII - Validation and Qualifying Accounts
(iv) Schedule IX - Short-Term Borrowings
(v) Schedule X - Supplementary Income Statement Information
Item 17. Undertakings.
(a) Rule 415 Offerings.
The undersigned issuer hereby undertakes that it will:
(1) File, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to:
(i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually
or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in
the Registration Statement; and
(iii) Includes any additional or changed material information on
the plan of distribution.
provided, however, the paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the information
required in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement.
II-8
<PAGE>
(2) For determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, treat
each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the
securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be
the initial bona fide offering.
(3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of
the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
(b) Request for acceleration of effective date.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnifications is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit
or proceedings) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the issuer will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such court.
(2) For determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities offered in
the registration statement, and that offering of the securities at that
time as the initial bona fide offering of those securities.
