Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(A) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Euroweb International Corp., formerly Hungarian Teleconstruct
Corp., (the "Company") and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All
material intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated.
Certain 1997 items have been reclassified to conform to the 1998
presentation.
(B) USE OF ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, management is required to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
(C) FISCAL YEAR
The Company's reporting period is the fiscal year ending December
31.
(D) REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenues from monthly internet services are recognized in the
month in which the services are provided.
Sales of constructed condominium apartments are recognized when
collection of the sales price is assured and occupancy permits
have been obtained.
(E) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The Company's Hungarian subsidiary, Euroweb Rt, uses the local
currency, the Hungarian forint, as the functional currency and
translates all assets and liabilities at exchange rates in effect
at the balance sheet date and all income and expense accounts at
average rates, and records adjustments resulting from the
translation in a separate component of stockholders' equity.
The Company uses the U.S. dollar as the functional currency for
its Hungarian subsidiary, Teleconstruct Epitesi Rt
("Teleconstruct"). Accordingly, monetary assets and liabilities of
Teleconstruct were remeasured by using the exchange rates in
effect at the balance sheet date, while nonmonetary assets and
liabilities were remeasured at historical rates. Income and
expense accounts were remeasured at the average rates in effect
during the period. Remeasurement adjustments and transaction gains
or losses are reflected in the consolidated statements of loss.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(F) CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the
Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased
with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
(G) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying values of cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
receivables from and loan payable to Hungarian Broadcasting
Corporation ("HBC"), payable to former owners of acquired
businesses, accounts payable and accrued expenses and the 10%
convertible debentures approximate fair values.
(H) EQUITY IN NET LOSS OF UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATE
The Company's 9.7% equity interest in HBC was accounted for using
the equity method through September 30, 1996 since the Company had
the ability to exercise significant influence over HBC. Beginning
October 1, 1996, the Company discontinued its use of the equity
method of accounting for its investment in HBC, since the Company
no longer had the ability to exercise significant influence over
HBC. On October 29, 1997, the Company sold its interest in HBC.
(I) PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is
computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the assets of 3 to 5 years.
(J) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"), which
established a fair value method of accounting for stock-based
compensation, through either recognition or disclosure. The
Company adopted the disclosure option for the employee stock-based
compensation provisions of SFAS No. 123. However, since the pro
forma net loss and net loss per share amounts assuming the fair
value method was adopted January 1, 1995 did not differ materially
from the comparable amounts reported on the consolidated
statements of loss, no such pro forma amounts have been disclosed.

<PAGE>
Euroweb International Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(K) INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." This statement requires a
liability approach for measuring deferred taxes based on temporary
differences between the financial statement and income tax bases
of assets and liabilities existing at the balance sheet date using
enacted rates for the years in which the taxes are expected to be
paid or recovered.
(L) NET LOSS PER SHARE
During 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share,"
("SFAS No. 128"), which provides for the calculation of "basic"
and "diluted" earnings per share. This statement became effective
for financial statements issued for periods ending after December
15, 1997. Basic earnings per share include no dilution and are
computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted earnings per share reflect, in periods in which
they have a dilutive effect, the effect of common shares issuable
upon exercise of stock options. Although SFAS No. 128 requires
that all periods presented be restated to comply with the
provisions of this statement, no restatement was required since
the Company's basic net loss per share and primary loss per share
for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were the same.
2. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
The Company is a Delaware corporation which was organized on November 9,
1992. Its wholly-owned Hungarian subsidiary, Teleconstruct, was organized
on March 19, 1993 and is currently building for sale two luxury 14-unit
condominium buildings in Budapest. (See Note 7).
On January 2, 1997, the Company acquired three Hungarian Internet service
companies for a purchase price of approximately $1,913,000, consisting of
$1,225,000 in cash, 204,000 shares of common stock of the Company,
assumption of $128,000 of liabilities, and $356,000 in notes, of which
$176,000 is still owed at March 31, 1998 and is payable at various dates
through October 31, 1998.
These acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. The cost in excess of net assets acquired (goodwill) of
approximately $1,900,000 resulting from these acquisitions is being
amortized over 5 years using the straight-line method.
The accompanying statement of loss for 1997 includes the results of the
acquired companies' operations since January 2, 1997. The Company is
operating the Internet service companies through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Euroweb Rt.

3. INTERIM PERIODS
The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 are unaudited but, in the opinion of
management, include all adjustments, consisting mainly of normal recurring
accruals necessary for fair presentation. Results for the interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.
4. INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE
Reference is made to the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1997 and to the notes to the consolidated
financial statements included therein, which are incorporated herein by
reference.
5. CASH CONCENTRATION
At March 31, 1998, cash of $390,666, denominated in U.S. dollars was on
deposit with two money market funds and a major money center bank in the
United States. In addition, $147,415 was on deposit in Hungarian banks.
6. ADVANCES TO, PAYABLE FROM AND INVESTMENT IN HBC
(A) At March 31, 1998, the balance receivable from HBC represents
loans, advances and accrued interest receivable. The receivable was
due June 30, 1997. The Company expects repayment of this receivable
during 1998 from a planned convertible debt offering by HBC. Upon
repayment, the Company will pay the loan payable to HBC.
(B) The Company's prior 9.7% interest in HBC (a public company),
represented by 250,000 shares of common stock, was subject to a
lock-up agreement through February 7, 1999 in favor of the HBC
underwriters. On October 29, 1997, the Company sold the 250,000
shares to the HBC underwriters for $649,000, approximately 40% of
the then market price. The Company recognized a gain of $524,000
based on a carrying value of $125,000.
(C) In February 1997, the Company borrowed $350,000 from HBC. The loan,
which is evidenced by a promissory note with interest at 6% per
annum, is payable on the earlier to occur of (1) June 30, 1997, (2)
the closing of any offering by the Company of its securities, or
(3) sale of any assets by the Company. The loan is secured by the
balance of the loan owed by HBC to the Company and the proceeds of
a debt owed by a company controlled by the Company's former
President (see Note 10(a)).

7. CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS
(A) Construction-in-progress of two luxury 14-unit condominium
buildings held for sale includes the cost of land ($885,000) and
construction costs incurred through March 31, 1998, net of a
provision of $1,350,000 ($350,000 and $1,000,000 provided in 1997
and 1996, respectively), for write downs to estimated net
realizable value. The Company believes that the provision was
required based on the real estate market conditions in Budapest.
(B) Deposits of $1,589,653 out of a total sales price of $1,679,653
have been received for all of the apartments in one of the
condominium buildings and, upon obtaining move-in permits, the sale
of the apartments will be recognized in April 1998. All the
deposits for the apartments with the exception of one for $200,000
were received from the Company's former President. The sales price
of these apartments approximates the cost of the apartments net of
the allocated provision for write-down.
The second condominium building has been leased, beginning April 1,
1998, under a net lease which provides for monthly rentals of
$22,000 for a period of five years. The lessee has the right to
purchase the leased building for $2,000,000, plus VAT taxes, if
any, during the lease period.
8. PRIVATE PLACEMENTS
(a) From November 1, 1996 to December 31, 1997, the Company sold
$1,642,500 of 10% convertible debentures due two years from the
date of sale to foreign investors outside the United States in
private placements, receiving aggregate net proceeds of
approximately $1,389,500 after deducting placement agent fees and
offering expenses of approximately $279,000. No sales of 10%
convertible debentures were made during the first quarter of 1998.
Commencing 45 days after issuance, the original principal amount of
the debentures is convertible into the Company's shares of common
stock at a conversion price of 50% of the market price, as defined,
of the Company's common stock. In the case of the occurrence of one
or more "events of default" as described in the debenture, the
debentures may be immediately due and payable. From November 1,
1996 to December 31, 1997, debentures of $1,492,500 and accrued
interest of $46,159 were converted into 2,677,646 shares of common
stock. During the three months ended March 31, 1998, an additional
$50,000 of debentures were converted into 228,310 shares of common
stock.
- 11 -
<PAGE>
Euroweb International Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
The incremental yield on the debentures relating to the
convertibility of the debentures into common stock at a 50%
discount to the common stock's market price resulted in interest
charges of $150,000 to the consolidated statement of loss for the
three months ended March 31, 1997. In addition, financing costs of
$59,924 incurred in connection with the sale of the debentures were
charged to operations in the first quarter of 1997, since a
substantial portion of the debentures was expected to be converted
to common stock within a short period.
The unconverted debentures of $100,000 at March 31, 1998 are due in
April 1999.
(b) In October 1996, the Company sold a private placement consisting
of 550,000 shares of common stock and 550,000 common stock
purchase warrants exercisable at $2 per share at any time from
October 1, 1997 until September 30, 2001 for net proceeds of
$972,450 after deducting placement agent fees and offering
expenses of $127,550. The warrants and the underlying shares of
common stock have been registered under the Securities Act of
1933. The exercise price was reduced to $1.25 per share on June
26, 1997.
9. STOCK OPTION PLAN AND WARRANTS
(A) STOCK OPTIONS
In 1993, the Company adopted a Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). An
aggregate of 350,000 shares of Common Stock are authorized for
issuance under the Plan. 260,000 of the option have been granted
and are currently outstanding and 90,000 option were granted in
April 1998. The Plan provides that qualified and non-qualified
options may be granted to officers, directors, employees and
consultants to the Company.
Options granted under the Plan are exercisable for a period of up
to ten years from the date of grant. Options terminate upon the
optionee's termination of employment or consulting arrangement with
the Company, except that, under certain circumstances, an optionee
may exercise an option within the three-month period after such
termination of employment. An optionee may not transfer any options
except that an option may be exercised by the personal
representative of a deceased optionee within the three-month period
following the optionee's death. Incentive options granted to any
employee who owns more than 10% of the Company's outstanding common
stock immediately before the grant must have an exercise price of
not less than 110% of the fair market value of all underlying stock
on the date of the grant and the exercise term may not exceed five
years. The aggregate fair market value of common stock (determined
at the date of grant) for which any employee may exercise incentive
options in any calendar year may not exceed $100,000. In addition,
the Company will not
- 12 -
<PAGE>
Euroweb International Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
grant a nonqualified option with an exercise price less than 85% of
the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of
the grant.
SFAS No. 123 requires the Company to provide,
beginning with 1995 grants, pro forma information
regarding net income and net income per common share
as if compensation costs for the Company's stock
option plans had been determined in accordance with
the fair value based method prescribed in SFAS No.
123. Such pro forma information has not been
presented because management has determined that the
compensation costs associated with options granted in
1998 and 1997 are not material to net loss or net
loss per common share.
Transactions involving options granted under the Plan during the
year ended December 31, 1997 are summarized below:

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
(A) EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
Effective May 1, 1994, the Company entered into three-year
employment agreements with three officers and terminated the
existing consulting and retainer agreement with them. The
agreements were extended by two additional years on October 23,
1995 and another two years on December 23, 1996. The amended
agreements provided for aggregate annual compensation of $336,000
for the Chairman of the Board, President and Secretary/Treasurer
of the Company, and the granting of options to the three officers
to purchase 460,000 shares of common stock of the Company at the
exercise price of $1 per share with vesting over a five-year
period (20% per year).
On October 20, 1996, the Company entered into a termination
agreement with its President which provided, among other things,
for (1) his resignation as an officer, director and employee and
(2) the cancellation of his employment agreement upon payment of
$372,000, which amount is to be deducted from the amount owed by a
company controlled by him in connection with the purchase of one
of the Company's condominium buildings. The President retained his
rights as a stock optionee with respect to his 285,000
(subsequently reduced to 250,000) options granted under his
employment agreement and pursuant to the Company's Incentive Stock
Option Plan of 1993. Unless he exercises his options within five
years of the date the options were granted, the options will
expire. Compensation expense of $972,000 was charged to 1996
operations as a result of cancelling the President's employment
agreement and extending the termination date of his options (See
Note 11(a)).

over a two-year period.
Also in February, 1997, the Company's Chairman of the Board
resigned as an officer, director and employee, and agreed to a
cancellation of his employment agreement upon payment of $50,000,
which represented the approximate amount owed to him with respect
to 1996 salary. In addition, 125,000 stock options which were
granted to him under his employment agreement did not terminate as
a result of the resignation, but continue to be governed by the
original terms of the options. Compensation of $100,000 has been
charged to operations during the first quarter of 1997 relating to
the extension of the period of exercisability of the options. The
Company's Treasurer was appointed Chairman of the Board with an
increase in compensation to $150,000 effective July 1, 1997 and
the term of his employment contract was extended to December 31,
2005. The Company will also provide the Chairman of the Board with
a split dollar life insurance policy in the face amount of
$2,000,000 to be structured so that the premium and other costs
paid by the Company would be recovered by the Company out of the
insurance proceeds.
(B) LEASE COMMITMENT

lease which provides for future minimum annual lease payments of

controlled by the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer.
The building to be sold contains four units for which deposits for
the full sales price have been received by the Company. The
purchaser agreed to purchase all of the apartments in the building,
except for one, for $1,479,653. The sale will be recognized upon the
receipt of the move-in permits in April 1998.
On October 30, 1996, the Company's President also resigned as an
officer, director and employee and agreed to a cancellation of his
employment agreement (which provided for $168,000 salary per annum
until February 1999), upon payment of $372,000. The $372,000,

to the former President, was used as a deposit with $90,000 being
owed by him on the above purchase at December 31, 1997.
It was further agreed that 250,000 stock options which were granted

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OPERATIONS
The Company was organized on November 9, 1992. It was in the development stage
through December 31, 1993 and has been unprofitable to date. Through its
wholly-owned Hungarian subsidiary, Teleconstruct Epitesi Rt. ("Teleconstruct")
the Company built for sale two luxury 14-unit condominiums in Budapest. During
1996 and 1997, the Company sold 13 of the 14 apartments in one of the buildings
prior to their completion to its former president, who agreed to finance the
completion of the other building. In April 1998, the Company completed the
construction of the two condominium buildings and received final move-in permits
from the Building Department of the City of Budapest. In April 1998, the Company
also net leased Building B to an unaffiliated person for a net monthly rental of
$22,000 for a five year term. The net lease also contained an option to purchase
Building B for the sum of $2,000,000, plus VAT taxes, if any, during any time
during the lease period.
In January 1997, the Company acquired three operating Internet service provider
businesses and has consolidated the three businesses under one roof. Revenues
from the Internet business amounted to $434,900 and $286,252 for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
In February 1997, the Company's Chairman of the Board resigned as an officer,
director and employee, and agreed to a cancellation of his employment agreement
upon payment of $50,000, which represented the approximate amount owed to him
with respect to 1996 salary. In addition, 125,000 stock options which were
granted to him under his employment agreement will not terminate as a result of
the resignation, but will continue to be governed by the original terms of the
options. Compensation of $100,000 was charged to operations for the year ended
December 31, 1997, relating to the period of exercisability of the options.
In February 1997, the former President of the Company was retained as a
consultant to the Company to oversee the Company's real estate interests and
Internet business. He agreed to render consulting services for a two-year period
for a fee of 100,000 five-year options exercisable at $2.00 per share. The
compensation relating to these options is being charged to operations over a
two-year period.
Effective July 9, 1997, the Company changed its name to Euroweb International
Corp. and increased the authorized number of shares of capital stock from
10,000,000 shares of common stock to 15,000,000 shares of common stock and
5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. In addition, one of the three Internet
subsidiaries changed its name to Euroweb Rt. and the accounts of the three
subsidiaries were consolidated into this company.
On August 26, 1997, the Board of Directors extended the term of the employment
agreement with its Chairman of the Board to December 31, 2005 and included a
provision in the contract to provide the Chairman with a split dollar life
insurance policy with a face amount of $2,000,000. The policy is to be
structured so that the premiums and other costs paid by the Company in
connection with the policy would be recovered by the Company out of the proceeds
of the policy.

<PAGE>
In 1998, the Company started a division to develop Internet software to provide
electronic commercial based solutions to perform many business processes. This
division was retained by Fornex, an agent of the Budapest Stock Exchange
("BSE"), to develop software to record all transactions on the BSE in real time,
which information can be obtained by subscribers of the Fornex service through
the Internet. The division has also been retained by Postal Bank, Hungary's
second largest bank, to help develop software for home banking use by customers
of the bank to enable the customers to transfer funds on deposits at the bank
electronically to third parties. The Company is also working on developing
software for credit card processing and transaction validation and is
negotiating to acquire software companies engaged in phases of Electronic
Banking and Electronic Transaction Processing, but it has not yet identified any
particular acquisition as of this date.
For the three months ended March 31, 1998, the Company incurred a net loss of
$166,351 ($.03 per share); the net loss for the three months ended March 31,
1997 amounted to $679,115 ($ .24 per share).
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1998 amounted to $435,368,
compared with revenues of $286,252 for the three months ended March 31, 1997.
The acquisition of the Internet business in 1997 resulted in goodwill of
approximately $1,900,000, which is being amortized over five years; amortization
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 amounted to $97,000 and
$86,000, respectively.
Financing costs of $59,924 incurred in connection with the sale of convertible
debentures were charged to operations for the first quarter of 1997, since a
substantial portion of the debentures were expected to be converted to common
stock within a short period. There were no such costs during the first quarter
of 1998.
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 1997 includes $150,000, of
incremental interest on the convertible debentures relating to the
convertibility of the debentures at a 50% discount to the Common Stock's market
price.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
In October 1996, the Company sold a private placement consisting of 550,000
shares of common stock and 550,000 common stock purchase warrants exercisable at
$2 per share (subsequently reduced to $1.25 per share) at any time from October
1, 1997 until September 30, 2001 for net proceeds of approximately $973,000
after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses of approximately
$127,000.
From November 1, 1996 to December 31, 1997, the Company sold $1,642,500 of 10%
convertible debentures due two years from the date of sale to foreign investors
outside the United States in private placements, receiving aggregate net
proceeds of approximately $1,389,500 after deducting placement agent fees and
offering expenses of approximately $279,000. No sales of 10% convertible
debentures were made during the first quarter of 1998.
From November 1, 1996 to December 31, 1997, debentures of $1,492,500 and accrued
interest of $46,159 were converted into 2,677,646 shares of common stock. During
the three months ended March 31, 1998, an additional $50,000 of debentures were
converted into 228,310 shares of common stock.
On August 26, 1997 the Board of Directors approved an increase in the number of
shares of common stock to be available under the Company's 1993 Incentive Stock
Option Plan from 350,000 to 700,000. The Board also approved the establishment
of a 1998 Directors
- 18 -
<PAGE>
Stock Option Plan with the right to grant 300,000 shares to the Company's
Directors. Both of these actions are subject to approval of the Company's
shareholders at the next annual shareholder meeting to be held in 1998.
The Company is planning to raise additional funds by issuing shares of its
preferred stock in a public offering during 1998. The offering would cover
920,000 units (each unit consisting of one share of preferred stock and one
common stock purchase warrant).
The Company currently anticipates that its available cash resources, combined
with the net proceeds from the public offering, will be sufficient to meet its
presently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements for
at least the next 12 months. However, the Company may need to raise additional
funds in order to support more rapid expansion, develop new or enhanced services
and products, respond to competitive pressures, acquire complimentary businesses
or technologies or take advantage of unanticipated opportunities. The Company's
future liquidity and capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors,
including the success of the Company's existing and new service offerings and
competing technological and market developments. The Company may be required to
raise additional funds through public or private financing, strategic
relationships or other arrangements. There can be no assurance that such
additional funding, if needed, will be available on terms acceptable to the
Company, or at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, the
Company may be unable to develop or enhance its services and products, take
advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of
which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of
operations and financial condition.
THE YEAR 2000
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the Year 2000 on its
management and information systems. At this time, management believes that the
impact of the Year 2000 will have no material effect on its operations or
financial results.
INFLATION AND SEASONALITY
The rate of inflation in Hungary was 18% in 1997 as compared with 23% for 1996
and 28% for 1995. Prices have been rising rapidly in recent years.
Internet operations are not seasonal or dependent on weather conditions.
FOREIGN CURRENCY
The Company will be subject to significant foreign exchange risk. There are
currently no meaningful ways to hedge currency risk in Hungary. Therefore, the
Company's ability to limit its exposure to currency fluctuations is
significantly restricted. Although the forint has become exchangeable outside
Hungary, there is not yet a freely convertible exchange market in place for the
forint. In addition, Hungarian law permits the repatriation of foreign currency
only for dividends to the extent of capital investment and earnings, as
determined under applicable Hungarian law. There can be no assurances as to the
future exchangeability or convertibility of forints.
