NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation.
The information furnished herein relating to interim
periods has not been audited by an independent
certified public accountant. In the opinion of the
Company's management, the financial information in
this report reflects any adjustments that are
necessary for a fair statement of results for the
interim periods presented in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.
Certain information and footnote disclosure normally
included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been omitted pursuant to the
requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, although the Company believes that the
disclosures included in these financial statements
are adequate to make the information not misleading.
The financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's annual report on
Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended August 31,
1998.
2. Organization.
The Company was originally organized under the laws
of the State of Missouri on September 1, 1981, as
HANDY-TOP, INC. On April 20, 1983, the Articles of
Incorporation were amended to change the name of the
corporation to HTI Corporation. On May 28, 1993,
the Articles of Incorporation were amended to change
the name of the corporation to Leggoons, Inc. In
addition to changing the company's name, the May
28,1993, amendment to the Articles of Incorporation
increased the number of authorized shares of common
stock from 40,000 to 10,000,000 and decreased the
par value of the common stock from $1.00 per share
to $.01 per share. Also on May 28, 1993, Leggoons,
Inc., declared a 14-for-1 stock split.
Thomas S. Hughes became Chairman and President of
Leggoons, Inc., on March 1, 1997. At that time, the
name was changed to Betting, Inc.
On May 17, 1999, an Agreement and Plan of Merger
between Betting, Inc., a Missouri corporation, into
Betting, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Company") was
executed by an authorized signatory of each company.
At a duly called meeting of shareholders on May 21,
1999, the merger of the two companies was approved by
a majority of the shareholders appearing in person or
by proxy. Effective on June 1, 1999, Articles of
Merger were filed with the Nevada Secretary of State,
which formally resulted in the redomicile to the
State of Nevada. As a result of the merger, the
fiscal year-end was changed from August 31 to
December 31 and the par value of the common stock was
changed from $0.01 per share to. $0.001 per share.
On June 4, 1999, a Certificate of Amendment of
Amendment to Articles of Incorporation was filed with
the Nevada Secretary of State changing the name of
the Company to "eConnect.". An audited report will be
filed (prior to August 31, 1999) for the four month
transition period from September 1, 1998 through
December 31, 1998.
The Company's business has been in a start-up mode.
No revenue has been recorded. As set forth in Note 9
"Subsequent Events," the Company has acquired (post
June 30, 1999) certain revenue producing businesses.
Hence forth, certain segments of the business will be
revenue producing while other segments will continue
in the start-up phase.
3. Continued Existence.
The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a
going concern. As set forth above, the Company,
through June 30, 1999, has been in a start phase
experiencing negative working capital and a
stockholders' deficit. This raises substantial doubt
about its ability to continue as a going concern. The
interim financial statements do not include any
adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on
the recoverability and classification of assets or
the amounts and classification of liabilities that
may result from the possible inability of the Company
to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans to continue as a going concern
include the acquisition of going concern businesses
(Note 9 Subsequent Event). Management is cautiously
optimistic that the unaudited revenue and earnings
generated by businesses prior to acquisition will
continue and be available to fund those business
segments still in the start-up phase.
4. Related Party Transactions.
The Company has entered into various agreements with
Electronic Transactions and Technologies ("ET&T"), a
corporation 70% owned by Mr. Hughes. The following
are the transactions for the six months ended June
30, 1999 between the related parties (ET&T and Mr.
Hughes) and e Connect:

It is planned to reimburse ET&T in company stock.
5. Acquisition.
During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the
Company acquired 100% of Rogel Technologies, a
corporation which will assist the Company in
developing its product line. The acquisition was
accounted for as follows:
2,500,000 shares of restricted stock: $ 687,500
2,500,000 shares of free trading stock
to be delivered post June 30, 1999: 1,375,000
$2,062,500
The stock was valued at $.55 per share less a 50%
discount for restricted stock.
6. Commitments and Contingencies.
A. Debentures Payable
The Company is contesting the payment of $500,000
principal due on a certain debenture, as claimed by a
Canadian firm. The companies respective counsels are
currently negotiating a settlement of this matter.
B. Licensing Agreement
ET&T has licensed the global intellectual rights of
four products to e Connect. The products are: "The
Paymaster," "The Slick," "The Pocket Pay" and " The
TV Pin Pad Remote." Each product is licensed at
$2,000,000 and is due if and when the Company
perfects the product. To date, only "The PayMaster"
has been perfected.
C. Restitution
In connection with the acquisition of the
wholly-owned subsidiary, Rogel Technologies, Mr.
Thomas Hughes gave up 250,000 shares of his own stock
valued at $.50 per share. In the event Mr. Hughes
receives the stock back, the restitution loss will be
canceled.
D. Stock Options
The Company does not have a formal stock plan,
however, certain consultants have, as part of their
agreements, the right to buy stock at a stipulated
price per share.
E. Agreement to License Assets
The Company issued 2,900,000 shares of restricted
common stock to ET&T in exchange for licensing home
ATM card and SMART card wagering technology developed
by ET&T. Of this amount, 2,755,000 shares were placed
in escrow and were subject to cancellation on
February 10, 1998, in the event the bid price of the
common stock of the Company was not at least $3.00
per share for any twenty consecutive day period as
reported on the NASD's Electronic Bulletin Board from
the date of the agreement through February 10, 1998.
As of the date of these financial statements, the
terms of the Licensing Agreement have not been met by
the Company. However, the Company has entered into
amendment(s) of the original agreement that provide
for an extension of the cancellation deadline from
February 10, 1998, to September 1, 1999, subject to
certain conditions specified in the agreement. As of
the date these financial statements, none of the
conditions have been met. All conditions set forth in
the original agreement need to be met on or before
September 1, 1999.
The License Agreement also provides that in the event
that the bid price for the common stock of the
Company is more than $3.00 per share for any twenty
consecutive day period, the ET&T shall have the
option to purchase up to 13,822,000 additional shares
of the Company common stock at an exercise price of
$.30 per share.
7. Earnings (loss) Per Share.
Net earnings (loss) per share are computed using the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period.
8. Income Taxes.
eConnect has unused net operating loss (NOL)
carryforwards of approximately $2,800,000 at February
18, 1997, that were generated by Leggoons, Inc. The
unused net operating losses expire in various amounts
from 2009 to 2012. However, due to change of
ownership rules of section 382 of the Internal
Revenue Code, some or all of these NOL carryforwards
may be unavailable to offset any future income of e
Connect. The Company generated losses of
approximately $1,658,000 during the six month period
ended August 31, 1997, losses of approximately
$197,000 during the year ended August 31, 1998, and
losses of approximately $183,000 during the six
months ended February 28, 1999. These losses,
totaling $4,838,000, may not qualify as federal and
state NOL carryforwards due to the possible
nondeductibility of the noncash service costs
incurred and the change of ownership rules of section
382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company
provides an allowance for the entire amount of any
deferred tax assets that are applicable to the NOL.
In connection with the change in fiscal years ( see
Note 2), an application with the IRS will be filed to
change the tax year.
9. Subsequent Event.
The Company filed a SB2 (a shelf offering) with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on June 1,1999,
which became effective July 22, 1999. A maximum of
20,000,000 shares (some of which have been issued)
are available to acquire the assets of various
businesses.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FIINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements of the
Company and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this
report.
Results of Operations.
Because the Company was in a start-up phase,
there were no reviews in either period. Activity for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 was immaterial
(approximately $56,000 of expenses).
For the period ended June 30, 1999, expenses
were approximately $3,900,000. Of the total expenses
$293,000 were incurred by the e Gate Division (Ezy
Shop) which began start-up operations in May. The
balance of the expenses approximating $3,600,000 were
incurred at the corporate level of which $2,000,000
was for a license fee, $800,000 for consulting
expenses and $125,000 for restitution or an aggregate
of $2,925,000.
The above enumerated license fee ($2,000,000)
and restitution ($125,000) were paid in stock. Of the
$800,000 consulting expense, approximately $723,000
was paid in stock of the Company. Of the approximate
$57,000 expenses incurred for the period ended June
30, 1998, $36,000 were paid in stock of the Company.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Because activity for the six months ended June
30, 1998 was immaterial, liquidity was not a factor.
For the six month period ended June 30, 1999 the
Company raised $417,500 from a debenture offering
($82,500 fee), approximately $862,000 from a stock
offering and $160,000 from individual borrowings.
For the period ended June 30, 1999 debt from
individual borrowings was paid down by $100,000. A
related party debt (ET&T) was paid down approximately
$283,000. The Company paid down approximately
$700,000 on its debt to ET&T by assuming ET&T's
liability to a vendor.
Capital Expenditures.
No material capital expenditures were made
during the quarter ended on June 30, 1999.
Year 2000 Issue.
The Year 2000 issue arises because many
computerized systems use two digits rather than four
to identify a year. Date sensitive systems may
recognize the year 2000 as 1900 or some other date,
resulting in errors when information using the year
2000 date is processed. In addition, similar
problems may arise in some systems which use certain
dates in 1999 to represent something other than a
date. The effects of the Year 2000 issue may be
experienced before, on, or after January 1, 2000, and
if not addressed, the impact on operations and
financial reporting may range from minor errors to
significant system failure which could affect the
Company's ability to conduct normal business
operations. This creates potential risk for all
companies, even if their own computer systems are
Year 2000 compliant. It is not possible to be
certain that all aspects of the Year 2000 issue
affecting the Company, including those related to the
efforts of customers, suppliers, or other third
parties, will be fully resolved.
The Company currently believes that its systems
are Year 2000 compliant in all material respects, its
current systems and products may contain undetected
errors or defects with Year 2000 date functions that
may result in material costs. Although management is
not aware of any material operational issues or costs
associated with preparing its internal systems for
the Year 2000, the Company may experience serious
unanticipated negative consequences (such as
significant downtime for one or more of its web site
properties) or material costs caused by undetected
errors or defects in the technology used in its
internal systems. Furthermore, the purchasing
patterns of advertisers may be affected by Year 2000
issues as companies expend significant resources to
correct their current systems for Year 2000
compliance. The Company does not currently have any
information about the Year 2000 status of its
advertising customers. However, these expenditures
may result in reduced funds available for web
advertising or sponsorship of web services, which
could have a material adverse effect on its business,
results of operations, and financial condition. The
Company's Year 2000 plans are based on management's
best estimates.
Forward Looking Statements.
The foregoing Management's Discussion and
Analysis contains "forward looking statements" within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Act of 1934, as amended, and as contemplated under
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,
including statements regarding, among other items,
the Company's business strategies, continued growth
in the Company's markets, projections, and
anticipated trends in the Company's business and the
industry in which it operates. The words "believe,"
"expect," "anticipate," "intends," "forecast,"
"project," and similar expressions identify forward-
looking statements. These forward-looking statements
are based largely on the Company's expectations and
are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties,
certain of which are beyond the Company's control.
The Company cautions that these statements are
further qualified by important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those
in the forward looking statements, including, among
others, the following: reduced or lack of increase in
demand for the Company's products, competitive
pricing pressures, changes in the market price of
ingredients used in the Company's products and the
level of expenses incurred in the Company's
operations. In light of these risks and
uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the
forward-looking information contained herein will in
fact transpire or prove to be accurate. The Company
disclaims any intent or obligation to update "forward
looking statements".

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company is not a party to any material
pending legal proceedings and, to the best of its
knowledge, no such action by or against the Company
has been threatened.

a total of 8,700,000 shares (in person and by
