                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Flycast Communications Corporation:

   We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Flycast
Communications Corporation and subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31,
1997 and 1998, and the related consolidated statements of operations, common
stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1998. 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 audits. The consolidated
financial statements give retroactive effect to the merger of InterStep, Inc.
with and into Flycast Communications Corporation on August 30, 1999, which has
been accounted for as a pooling-of-interests as described in Note 9 to the
consolidated financial 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 misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

   In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Flycast Communications
Corporation and subsidiary at December 31, 1997 and 1998, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

                       FLYCAST COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1997 AND 1998

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   Organization--Flycast Communications Corporation ("Flycast") commenced
operations on April 14, 1996 (inception). Flycast is a leading provider of Web-
based advertising solutions designed to maximize the return on investment for
direct response advertisers and e-commerce companies. Flycast is headquartered
in San Francisco.

   Basis of Presentation--On August 30, 1999, Flycast completed a merger with
InterStep, Inc. ("InterStep") a Massachusetts corporation which commenced
operations in 1995. The transaction has been accounted for as a pooling-of-
interests and, accordingly, the consolidated financial statements of Flycast
Communications Corporation (the "Company") for all periods presented have been
restated to include the accounts of InterStep (see Note 9). No adjustments were
required to conform accounting policies of the entities. There were no
significant intercompany transactions requiring elimination for any periods
presented.

   Use of Estimates--The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company
performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' respective financial
conditions, and, generally, requires no collateral from its customers. The
Company maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable based on
the expected collectibility of accounts receivable.

   Cash equivalents consist of money market funds and certificates of deposit
with original maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition.

   Investments consist of certificates of deposit with an original maturity
date of greater than three months at the time of acquisition. Such investments
are considered available for sale and have carrying values which approximate
fair value.

   Property and Equipment--Property and equipment are stated at cost. Equipment
held under capital leases is stated at the present value of minimum lease
payments. Depreciation on property and equipment is calculated on the straight-
line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Equipment held under
capital leases is amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter of the
lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset.

   Revenue Recognition--Revenues derived from the delivery of advertising
impressions through third-party Web sites and delivery of e-mail content are
recognized in the period the advertising impressions or e-mail contents are
delivered provided collection of the resulting receivable is probable. Revenues
from list management and distribution services are recognized when services
have been performed. Amounts payable to third party Web sites for
advertisements displayed on such sites are recorded as cost of revenue in the
period the advertising impressions or e-mails are delivered.

   Advertising expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising
expenses were not significant in 1996 or 1997 and were $634,000 in 1998.

   Research and development expenses are charged to operations as incurred.

   Income Taxes--Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for future taxable
amounts, and deferred tax assets are recognized for future deductions, net of a
valuation allowance to reduce net deferred tax assets to amounts that are more
likely than not to be realized.

                       FLYCAST COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


   Concentration of Credit Risk--Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of trade receivables. The
Company's credit risk is mitigated by the Company's credit evaluation process
and the reasonably short collection terms. The Company does not require
collateral or other security to support accounts receivable and maintains
reserves for potential credit losses.

   Financial Instruments--The Company's financial instruments include cash and
cash equivalents, short-term investments, notes receivable from stockholders
and long-term debt. At December 31, 1997 and 1998, the fair values of these
instruments approximated their financial statement carrying amounts.

   Stock-Based Compensation--The Company accounts for its employee stock option
plan in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB)
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Accordingly, no
accounting recognition is given to stock options granted to employees
(including directors) at fair market value until they are exercised. Upon
exercise, the net proceeds are credited to stockholders' equity (deficit).
Compensation expense is recognized for stock options granted to employees
(including directors) at less than fair market value.

   The Company accounts for stock options issued to non-employees in accordance
with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" and Emerging Issues Task Force
Issue No. 96-18 under the fair value based method.

   Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets To Be Disposed Of--The
Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets or
intangibles may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and
used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future
undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such
assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the
fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of
the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

   Loss per Common Share--Basic loss per common share excludes dilution and is
computed by dividing loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the period (excluding shares
subject to repurchase). Diluted loss per common share reflects the potential
dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common
stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Common share equivalents
are excluded from the computation in loss periods as their effect would be
antidilutive.

   Pro Forma Net Loss per Common Share--Pro forma basic and diluted loss per
common share is computed by dividing loss attributable to common stockholders
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period
(excluding shares subject to repurchase) and the weighted average number of
common shares resulting from the assumed conversion of outstanding shares of
mandatorily redeemable preferred stock.

   Recently Issued Accounting Standards--In June 1997, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income,"
which requires an enterprise to report, by major components and as a single
total, the change in its net assets during the period from nonowner sources;
and SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," which establishes annual and interim reporting standards for an
enterprise's business segments and related disclosures about its products,
services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company had no
comprehensive income items to report for the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1998. The Company currently operates one reportable segment under
SFAS No. 131. Adoption of these statements in 1998 did not impact the Company's
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

                       FLYCAST COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


   In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," which defines derivatives, requires that
all derivatives be carried at fair value, and provides for hedge accounting
when certain conditions are met. SFAS No. 133 is effective for the Company in
fiscal 2001. Although the Company has not fully assessed the implications of
SFAS No. 133, the Company does not believe that adoption of this statement will
have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

2. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

$445,000.

   In 1998, the Company obtained a $175,000 letter of credit as a security
deposit on office space leased. The letter of credit is collateralized by all
assets of the Company.

   In 1998, the Company entered into a financing agreement with a preferred
stockholder and lender for $2,500,000, due in April 2002 with interest at 11%
per annum, and for an additional $5,000,000, due in August 2001 with interest
at 14%. The Company granted this lender Series C preferred stock warrants to
purchase 55,409 shares at $4.51 per share, and 72,324 shares of preferred stock
at $4.42 per share. The estimated fair value allocated to the warrants of
$304,000 is being accreted over the life of the financing agreements. As of
December 31, 1998, the recorded obligation totaled $4,220,000 and $3,000,000 is

and 1998 due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from its net
operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets.

   At December 31, 1998, the Company had net operating loss ("NOL")
carryforwards of approximately $11,000,000 for federal and state income tax
purposes. These carryforwards begin to expire in 2004 for state and 2011 for
federal purposes. The Company also has available federal and state research and
development tax credit carryforwards of $77,000 and $58,000, respectively,
which had no expiration date as of December 31, 1998.

   Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar California rules place a
limitation on the amount of taxable income which can be offset by NOL
carryforwards after a change in control (generally greater than 50% change in
ownership). Due to these provisions, utilization of the NOL and tax credit
carryforwards may be limited.

 Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock

   In July 1997, the Company issued 611,295 shares of Series A redeemable
convertible stock in exchange for all 1,000 shares of outstanding common
stock. Additionally, in July 1997, 300,000 shares of Series A preferred stock
were issued upon conversion of $300,000 of convertible notes. In July, August
and December 1997, the Company issued 5,324,532 shares of Series B preferred
stock for $1.33 per share. In December 1998, the Company issued 497,785 shares
of Series C preferred stock for $9.04 per share.

   Significant terms of the Series A, B and C redeemable convertible preferred
stock are as follows (see Note 9):

  .  At the option of the holder, each share of preferred stock is
     convertible at any time into one share of common stock, subject to
     adjustment for certain dilutive issuances. As of December 31, 1998, no
     such adjustments had occurred. Shares automatically convert into common
     stock upon the earlier of (a) completion of a public offering with
     aggregate proceeds greater than $15,000,000 at not less than $8.00 per
     share or (b) upon the consent of more than 50% of the holders of the
     preferred stock, voting together as a single class.

  .  Series A, B and C convertible preferred stock are entitled to annual
     noncumulative cash dividends of $0.08, $0.106 and $0.723 per share,
     respectively, when and if declared by the Board of Directors.

  .  In the event of any liquidation of the Company (which includes the
     acquisition of the Company by another entity), the holders of Series B
     and Series C preferred stock have a liquidation preference over common
     stock and Series A preferred stock of $1.33 per share and $9.04 per
     share, respectively, plus all declared but unpaid dividends. After such
     payment, the holders of Series A preferred stock have a liquidation
     preference of $1.00 per share plus any declared but unpaid dividends.
     Upon payment of all preferred stock liquidation preferences, any
     remaining proceeds will be allocated to the common stockholders.

  .  Any time after May 31, 2002, upon the vote of at least two-thirds of the
     then outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock, the Company
     will be required to redeem all of the redeemable convertible preferred
     stock at the liquidation preference plus an amount equal to $0.08,
     $0.106 and $0.723 per share per year compounded annually for Series A, B
     and C, respectively, less any cash dividends paid. As a result, the
     Company has recorded an increase to the carrying values by the accretion
     of the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock of $206,000 in 1997 and
     $656,000 in 1998.

  .  Holders of preferred stock have the same voting rights as the holders of
     common stock.

 Preferred Stock Warrants

   In 1997, in connection with certain loan arrangements, the Company issued
five year warrants to purchase 33,834 shares of Series B preferred stock at
$1.33 per share and 7,500 shares of Series A preferred stock at $1.00 per
share to a bank. The warrants expire in 2002. The fair value of these warrants
of $33,000 was recognized as interest expense in 1997.

   Also in 1997, in connection with a bridge loan arrangement, the Company
issued a five year warrant to purchase 43,854 shares of Series B preferred
stock at $1.33 per share. The warrant expires in 2002 or upon closing of an
underwritten public offering. The fair value of these warrants of $36,000 was
recognized as interest expense in 1997.

   As discussed in Note 4, in 1998, the Company granted a lender Series C
preferred stock warrants to purchase 55,409 shares at $4.51 per share, and
72,324 shares at $4.42 per share. The warrants expire upon the earlier of five
years from the grant date or two years from closing of an underwritten public
offering. The fair value of the warrants of $304,000 is being accreted to
interest expense over the life of the financing agreements.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


   In 1998, in connection with certain bridge loan arrangements, the Company
issued warrants to purchase 132,840 shares of Series C preferred stock at $9.04
per share to various lenders. The warrants expire in 2003 or upon closing of an
underwritten public offering. The fair value of these warrants of $200,000 was
recognized as interest expense in 1998.

 Notes Receivable from Stockholders

   In July 1997, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,275,011 shares of common
stock to officers and members of the Board of Directors. In connection with
such issuance, the Company's board members paid for the stock by issuing notes
payable (secured by the shares of the Company's common stock purchased) to the
Company. The secured note payable bears interest at 6.65% per annum with the
entire principal balance of the note, together with all accrued and unpaid
interest, due and payable on the earlier of (a) nine months after the closing
of an initial public offering of the Company's common stock or (b) July 2002 or
(c) termination of employment. The shares vest over a four year period. Any
unvested shares purchased are subject to repurchase rights by the Company upon
occurrence of certain events or conditions, such as employment termination, at
the original purchase price. Of such shares, there were 1,990,635 and 997,500
shares subject to repurchase at December 31, 1997 and 1998, respectively.

   Additionally, in September 1998, two officers of the Company exercised
options to purchase 357,000 shares with an exercise price of $1.25 by issuing
notes payable (secured by the shares of the Company's common stock purchased).
The secured note payable bear interest at 5.54% per annum with the entire
principal balances of the notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest,
due and payable on the earlier of (a) nine months after the closing of an
underwritten public offering, (b) September 2003 or (c) termination of
employment.

 Stock Option Plans

   The Company's stock option plans (the "Plans") provide for the grant of up
to 2,850,000 incentive or nonstatutory options to employees, directors and
consultants of the Company at the fair market value of the common stock on the
date of grant as determined by the Board of Directors. Options granted under
the Plans generally vest ratably over periods of up to four years and expire
ten years from the date of grant. The Plans also provide for early exercise of
options prior to full vesting. Any unvested shares purchased are subject to
repurchase rights by the Company upon occurrence of certain events or
conditions, such as employment termination, at the original purchase price.
There were 528,289 shares subject to repurchase at December 31, 1998.

 Options and Warrants Granted to Nonemployees

   In 1998, the Company granted options and warrants for common stock to
nonemployees for services performed and to be performed through 2002. In
connection with these awards, the Company recognized $178,000 in stock-based
compensation expense related to such options which vested during 1998. At
December 31, 1998, unvested options granted to nonemployees totaled 24,479
shares.

 Stock-Based Compensation

   During 1998, the Company issued common stock options at less than the fair
value of its common stock. The fair value of the common stock, weighted based
on options granted in 1998, was $2.75 per share. Accordingly, the Company
recorded $2,929,000 as the value of such options in 1998. Stock-based
compensation of $1,158,000 was amortized to expense in 1998 and at December 31,
1998, the Company had $1,771,000 in deferred stock compensation related to such
options, which will be amortized to expense through 2002.

 Additional Stock Plan Information

   As discussed in Note 1, the Company accounts for its stock-based awards to
employees using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and its related
interpretations.

   SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," requires the
disclosure of pro forma net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share had the
Company adopted the fair value method since the Company's inception. Under SFAS
No. 123, the fair value of stock-based awards to employees is calculated

through the use of option pricing models, even though such models were
developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable
options without vesting restrictions, which significantly differ from the
Company's stock option awards.

   The Company's calculations for employee grants were made using the minimum
value option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

   For the three years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998, the Company had
securities outstanding which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share
in the future, but were excluded in the computation of diluted net loss per
share in the periods presented, as their effect would have been antidilutive.
Such outstanding securities consist of the following at December 31, 1998:
6,733,612 shares of convertible preferred stock, warrants to purchase 345,761
shares of preferred stock, and options and warrants to purchase 1,979,181
shares of common stock. There were 1,990,635 and 1,525,789 shares subject to
repurchase by the Company at December 31, 1997 and 1998, respectively.

   Total rent expense under operating leases for the years ended 1996, 1997 and
1998 was $22,000, $127,000 and $400,000, respectively.

 Legal Matters

   In connection with the termination of employment of an officer, the Company
foreclosed on 264,560 shares of the Company's common stock securing a
promissory note from that officer. If that officer should elect to legally
contest the number of shares issued to him, and if additional shares are
ultimately issued, the Company could incur a charge equal to the fair market
value of such shares. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined
at this time.

   Additionally, the Company is involved in various other claims and legal
actions. Management does not expect that the outcome of these other claims and
actions will have a material effect on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

   In January 1999, the Company sold 1,496,347 shares of Series C preferred
stock at $9.04 per share for proceeds of $13,527,000.

   On January 4, 1999, the Board of Directors adopted, subject to stockholder
approval, the 1999 Stock Option Plan (the "1999 Stock Plan"). The 1999 Stock
Plan will serve as the successor equity incentive program to the Company's
existing 1997 Stock Option Plan. A total of 2,000,000 shares of common stock
were initially reserved for issuance under the 1999 Stock Plan. On March 30,
1999, the Board of Directors adopted an amendment to the 1999 Stock Plan that
increased the shares of common stock reserved for issuance to 3,500,000. The
number of shares reserved will increase for each of the next five years by the
lesser of 1,000,000 shares or 3% of the number of shares of common stock
outstanding at the beginning of the year.

   On January 28, 1999, the Board of Directors adopted, subject to stockholder
approval, the 1999 Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "Directors' Plan"). Under
the Directors' Plan, each person who becomes a nonemployee director after the
effective date of the Directors' Plan may be granted nonstatutory stock
options. A total of 200,000 shares of common stock have initially been reserved
for issuance under the Directors' Plan.

   On January 28, 1999, the Board of Directors approved, subject to stockholder
approval, the reincorporation of the Company in the State of Delaware and the
associated exchange of one share of common stock or preferred stock of the
Company for every share of common stock or preferred stock, as the case may be,
of the Company's California predecessor. Such reincorporation and stock
exchange will become effective prior to the effective date of the initial
public offering contemplated by the Company.

   Additionally, on January 28, 1999, the Board of Directors adopted, subject
to stockholder approval, the 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase
Plan"). Under the Purchase Plan, eligible employees are allowed to have salary
withholdings of up to 10% of their base compensation to purchase shares of
common stock at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the market value of the
stock at the beginning or end of defined purchase periods. The initial purchase
period commences upon the effective date for the initial public offering of the
Company's common stock. The Company has initially reserved 350,000 shares of
common stock for issuance under this plan, and the number of shares reserved
will increase for each of the next five years by the lesser of 75,000 shares or
0.5% of the shares of common stock outstanding at the beginning of the year.

   On May 4, 1999, Flycast completed an initial public offering of 3,000,000
shares of the Flycast's common stock. In addition, on June 4, 1999, the Company
sold an additional 200,000 shares under the underwriters' overallotment option.
Total net proceeds were $74.4 million. Upon the closing of the initial public
offering, Flycast's mandatorily redeemable preferred stock converted into 6.9
million shares of common stock.

   On August 30, 1999, Flycast completed a merger with InterStep, Inc., a
Massachusetts corporation which commenced operations in 1995. InterStep
provides publishers with e-mail content management, list management and
distribution services on an outsourced basis. In the transaction, Flycast
issued 480,337 shares of common stock to InterStep's stockholders, of which
47,558 shares are held by an escrow agent to serve as security for the
indemnity provided by stockholders of InterStep. The Company also assumed all
outstanding InterStep common stock options, which were converted to options to
purchase approximately 10,012 shares of the Company's common stock. No
adjustments were required to conform accounting policies of the entities. There
were no significant intercompany transactions requiring elimination for any
periods presented.

   The above transaction has been accounted for as a pooling-of-interests and,
accordingly, the supplemental consolidated financial statements of the Company
for all periods presented have been restated to include the accounts of
InterStep.

   On September 30, 1999, the Company announced that a definitive agreement was
entered into to be acquired by CMGI, Inc. ("CMGI") in a stock-for-stock merger.
Under the terms of the agreement, CMGI will issue 0.4738 CMGI shares for every
Flycast share held on the closing date of the transaction. Closing of the
merger is subject to customary conditions, including formal approval by the
Company's shareholders. In connection with the merger, the Company also entered
into a Stock Option Agreement dated as of September 29, 1999, whereby the
Company granted CMGI an option to purchase up to 19.9% of the outstanding
shares of the Company common stock, which option may be exercised in the event
that the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances. Related to
the acquisition, the Company incurred $1,350,000 in expenses in the quarter
ended September 30, 1999.

                       FLYCAST COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION

                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

   The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been
prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements. In the opinion
of management, such unaudited financial statement includes all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
presentation of the Company's financial position as of September 30, 1999 and
the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1998 and 1999 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and
1999.

   The unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with
Flycast's audited financial statements and the notes thereto as included in
Flycast's Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on May 4, 1999, and its periodic filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission thereafter. The results of operations for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarter or the
entire year ending December 31, 1999.

   On August 30, 1999, Flycast acquired InterStep by issuing 480,337 shares of
common stock for all of the outstanding shares of InterStep, Inc. in
transaction that was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. As a result,
InterStep became a wholly owned subsidiary of Flycast. For purposes of
financial statement presentation, historical financial information for
InterStep has been consolidated into the statements presented herein.

   Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial
statements to conform to the current period presentation.

2. Initial Public Offering

   On May 4, 1999, Flycast completed an initial public offering of 3,000,000
shares of the Flycast's common stock. In addition, on June 4, 1999, the Company
sold an additional 200,000 shares under the underwriters' overallotment option.
Total net proceeds were $74.4 million. Upon the closing of the initial public
offering, Flycast's mandatorily redeemable preferred stock converted into 6.9
million shares of common stock.

3. Acquisitions

   On August 30, 1999, we acquired InterStep by issuing 480,337 shares of
common stock for all of the outstanding shares of InterStep, Inc. Of the
480,337 shares of common stock, 47,558 shares are held by an escrow agent to
serve as security for the indemnity provided by some of the shareholders of
InterStep. The information presented herein reflects the combination of Flycast
and InterStep accounted for as a pooling-of-interests.

   On September 30, 1999, we announced that we had signed a definitive
agreement to be acquired by CMGI, Inc. in a stock-for-stock merger. Under the
terms of the agreement, CMGI will issue 0.4738 CMGI shares for every Flycast
share held on the closing date of the transaction. Closing of the merger is
subject to customary conditions, including formal approval by our shareholders.
It is anticipated that the transaction will close in January 2000. A
significant percentage of our shareholders have agreed to vote in favor of the
merger. In connection with the merger, we also entered into a Stock Option
Agreement dated as of September 29, 1999, whereby we granted CMGI an option to
purchase up to 19.9% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, which
option may be exercised in the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated
under certain circumstances. We incurred approximately $1.5 million in
expenses, which are reflected as general and administrative operating expenses
herein for the quarter ended September 30, 1999. We expect to incur additional
financial advisory accounting and legal fees estimated to be between $6.0
million and $8.0 million contingent upon completion of the acquisition. This
range is a preliminary estimate only and is, therefore, subject to change.

4. Basic and Diluted Loss per Share

   Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the loss attributable to
common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
for the period (excluding shares subject to repurchase). Diluted loss per
common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or
other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common
stock. Common share equivalents are excluded from the computation in loss
periods, as their effect would be antidilutive.

   The following is a reconciliation of the denominators used in calculating
basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands):

5. Pro Forma Loss per Common Share

   Pro forma basic and diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing
loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the period (excluding shares subject to
repurchase) and the weighted average number of common shares resulting from the
assumed conversion of outstanding mandatorily redeemable preferred stock.

6. Combining Financial Information

   The acquisition of InterStep has been accounted for as a pooling-of-
interests and, accordingly, our historical consolidated financial statements
have been restated to include the accounts and results of operations of
InterStep. The results of operations previously reported by the separate
businesses and the combined amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements are presented below.

</TABLE>

   We have restated our results of operations for the three and nine month
periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1999 by combining InterStep's financial
statements with our financial statements. We have restated the balance sheet as
of December 31, 1998 to include our balance sheet and InterStep's balance sheet
as of December 31, 1998. The equity accounts of the separate entities were
combined. There were no significant transactions between our Company and
InterStep prior to the combination.

Pro forma financial information:
- -------------------------------

  On August 18, 1999, CMGI acquired an 81.495% equity stake in the former
AltaVista division of Digital Equipment Corporation, referred to as the
AltaVista Business, from Compaq Computer Corporation and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Digital Equipment Corporation. Consideration for the acquisition was
valued at approximately $2.4 billion, including $4 million of direct costs of
the acquisition. The AltaVista Business includes the assets and liabilities
constituting the AltaVista Internet search service, referred to as AltaVista
Search , which was a division of Digital, and also includes former
Compaq/Digital wholly-owned subsidiaries Zip2 Corporation and Shopping.com. In
consideration for the acquisition, CMGI issued 18,994,975 shares of its common
stock valued at approximately $1.8 billion, 18,090.45 shares of its Series D
Preferred Stock (which were converted into 1,809,045 shares of CMGI common stock
in October 1999) valued at approximately $173 million and promissory notes with
an aggregate principal amount of $220 million. Additionally, AltaVista Business
and CMGI stock options issued in the transaction, valued at a total of
approximately $175 million, have been included in CMGI's purchase consideration.

  On September 29, 1999, CMGI entered into an agreement to acquire Flycast
Communications Corporation for consideration preliminarily valued at $920
million, consisting of: CMGI common stock valued at approximately $709 million,
options to purchase CMGI common stock valued at approximately $190 million and
estimated direct acquisition costs of $21 million.  Since the acquisition has
not yet been completed, the actual consideration for the acquisition of Flycast
can not yet be determined.  For the purpose of the pro forma financial
information included herein, the number of shares of CMGI common stock assumed
issued in the acquisition of Flycast is approximately 7.2 million.  This amount
is based on the number of shares of Flycast common stock outstanding as of
September 29, 1999, the date of the CMGI-Flycast merger agreement.  Similarly,
the estimated value of the options to purchase CMGI common stock to be issued in
the acquisition of Flycast is based on the outstanding options to purchase
Flycast common stock as of September 29, 1999.  The actual number of CMGI common
shares and stock options to be issued will be based on the actual outstanding
Flycast common shares and stock options as of the completion of the merger.  The
estimated acquisition related costs consist primarily of investment banker,
legal and accounting fees to be incurred directly related to the acquisition of
Flycast.

  The following pro forma unaudited combined condensed financial statements give
effect to CMGI's acquisitions of the AltaVista Business and Flycast, both of
which will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The
unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the three
months ended October 31, 1999 and the year ended July 31, 1999 give effect to
the acquisitions of the AltaVista Business and Flycast by CMGI as if each had
occurred on August 1, 1998. The pro forma statement of operations for the three
months ended October 31, 1999 is based on historical results of operations of
CMGI for the three months ended October 31, 1999 (which include the results of
the AltaVista Business from August 19, 1999 through October 31, 1999), the
historical results of operations of Flycast for the three months ended September
30, 1999 and the historical results of operations for the AltaVista Business for
the period from August 1, 1999 through August 18, 1999. The pro forma statement
of operations for the twelve months ended July 31, 1999 is based on historical
results of operations of CMGI for the twelve months ended July 31, 1999, the
historical results of operations of Flycast for the twelve months ended June 30,
1999 and the historical results of operations of the components of the AltaVista
Business as follows: the carve-out historical results of AltaVista Search and
the historical results of Zip2 Corporation for the twelve months ended June 30,
1999 and the historical results of Shopping.com for the twelve months ended July
31, 1999. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of October
31, 1999 gives effect to the acquisition of Flycast as if this transaction had
occurred on that date. The pro forma balance sheet is based on the historical
balance sheet of CMGI as of October 31, 1999 and the historical balance sheet of
Flycast as of September 30, 1999. The following pro forma financial information,
consisting of the pro forma statements of operations and the pro forma balance
sheet and the accompanying notes, should be read in conjunction with and are
qualified by the historical financial statements and notes of CMGI, the
AltaVista Business and Flycast which are incorporated by reference in this pro
forma financial information.

  The pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes
only and is not necessarily indicative of the future financial position or
future results of operations of the consolidated company after the acquisitions
of the AltaVista Business and Flycast, or of the financial position or results
of operations of the consolidated company that would have actually occurred had
the acquisitions of the AltaVista Business and Flycast been effected as of the
dates described above.

   Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information



(1)  Pro Forma Adjustments and Assumptions


     (A)  CMGI completed its acquisition of an 81.495% equity stake in the
          AltaVista Business for consideration valued at approximately $2.4
          billion on August 18, 1999. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of
          the AltaVista Business are included in CMGI's consolidated balance
          sheet as of October 31, 1999 and no pro forma adjustments are
          necessary to the pro forma balance sheet related to the acquisition of
          the AltaVista Business. The following represents the allocation of the
          purchase price for CMGI's acquisition of the AltaVista Business over
          81.495% of the fair values of the acquired assets and assumed
          liabilities of the AltaVista Business as of August 18, 1999:

                                                                    ===========
</TABLE>

          The purchase price allocation for the acquisition of the AltaVista
          Business is preliminary and is subject to adjustment upon finalization
          of the purchase accounting.

          The pro forma financial information also reflects the acquisition of
          Flycast for consideration preliminarily valued at $920 million (see
          description of the components of the estimated consideration above).
          Since the acquisition has not yet been completed, the actual
          consideration for the acquisition of Flycast can not yet be
          determined. For the purpose of the pro forma financial information,
          the number of shares of CMGI common stock assumed issued in the
          acquisition of Flycast is approximately 7.2 million. This amount is
          based on the number of shares of Flycast common stock outstanding as
          of September 29, 1999, the date of the CMGI-Flycast merger agreement.
          Similarly, the estimated value of the options to purchase CMGI common
          stock to be issued in the acquisition of Flycast is based on the
          outstanding options to purchase Flycast common stock as of September
          29, 1999. The actual number of CMGI common shares and stock options to
          be issued will be based on the actual outstanding Flycast common
          shares and stock options as of the completion of the merger. The
          estimated acquisition related costs consist primarily of investment
          banker, legal and accounting fees to be incurred directly related to
          the acquisition of Flycast.

          The following represents the allocation of the estimated purchase
          price for CMGI's pending acquisition of Flycast over the historical
          net book values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities of
          Flycast as of the date of the pro forma balance sheet, and is for
          illustrative purposes only. The actual purchase price allocation will
          be based on fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities
          as of the actual acquisition date. Assuming the transaction occurred
          on October 31, 1999, the allocation for the acquisition of Flycast
          would have been as follows:

          The pro forma adjustment reconciles the historical balance sheet of
          Flycast to the allocated purchase price above and includes the accrual
          of approximately $21.0 million of estimated acquisition costs to be
          paid by CMGI related to the acquisition of Flycast.

                                  (Continued)



     (B) The pro forma adjustments include an incremental $38.2 million and
         $789.4 million in amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets
         (per the allocation in "(A)" above) that would have been recorded
         during the three months ended October 31, 1999 and the twelve months
         ended July 31, 1999 related to the acquisition of the AltaVista
         Business. The amounts identified as goodwill and other intangible
         assets in CMGI's acquisition of the AltaVista Business are being
         amortized on a straight-line basis over a three-year period. The
         adjustment amounts also include a net reduction of $11.9 million and
         $107.0 million in amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets
         for the three months ended October 31, 1999 and the twelve months ended
         July 31, 1999, respectively. These amounts relate to the reduction in
         historical amortization expense to reflect only the 18.505% carry-over
         basis in the historical goodwill and other intangible assets of the
         AltaVista Business and includes the amortization that would have been
         recorded in the historical financial statements of the AltaVista
         Business if Compaq/Digital's acquisitions of Shopping.com and Zip2
         Corporation had occurred on August 1, 1998. The historical financial
         statements of the AltaVista Business represented in the pro forma
         statement of operations include amortization of goodwill and other
         intangible assets relating to Compaq's acquisition of Digital in June
         1998 and Compaq/Digital's acquisitions of Shopping.com and Zip2
         Corporation in January 1999 and April 1999, respectively.

     (C) The pro forma adjustments represent amortization of goodwill and other
         intangible assets (per the allocation in "(A)" above) that would have
         been recorded during the periods covered by the pro forma statements of
         operations related to the acquisition of Flycast.

         The pro forma adjustments are based on the assumption that the entire
         amounts identified as goodwill and other intangible assets in CMGI's
         acquisition of Flycast will be amortized on a straight-line basis over
         a three-year period. The valuation of the actual intangible assets will
         not be completed until after the acquisition of Flycast is complete.
         When completed, certain amounts identified as intangible assets may be
         amortized over periods other than the three-year period represented in
         the pro forma statement of operations. Additionally, a portion of the
         purchase price may be identified as in-process research and
         development. This amount, if any, will be charged to operating results
         in CMGI's fiscal year 2000 financial statements when the acquisition
         accounting and valuation amounts are finalized. The pro forma
         statements of operations do not give effect to any potential in-process
         research and development charge related to the acquisition of Flycast.

     (D) The pro forma adjustments relate to stock-based compensation charges
         recorded in the historical financial statements of the AltaVista
         Business and Flycast. The value of the stock options to which these
         charges related are included in the calculation of the purchase
         consideration. Accordingly, on a pro forma basis, these expenses have
         been eliminated.

     (E) The pro forma adjustments reflect the incremental interest expense that
         would have been recorded by CMGI related to the $220 million of
         aggregate principal amounts of notes payable issued in the acquisition
         of the AltaVista Business as if the notes payable had been issued on
         August 1, 1998. The notes bear interest at an annual rate of 10.5%.

     (F) The pro forma adjustment reflects the 18.505% minority interest in the
         results of operations of the AltaVista Business assuming that CMGI's
         acquisition of 81.495% of the AltaVista Business occurred on August 1,
         1998.

                                  (Continued)



     (G) The pro forma adjustments reflect the income tax benefit that would
         have been recorded by CMGI in its consolidated statements of operations
         related to the AltaVista Business' and Flycast's historical losses for
         the comparable periods presented and the income tax effect, if any, of
         the other pre-tax pro forma adjustments. The pro forma adjustments
         assume that CMGI would recognize a federal tax benefit for the
         amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets related to the
         acquisition of the AltaVista Business, but would not recognize a
         federal tax benefit for the amortization of goodwill and other
         intangible assets related to the acquisition of Flycast. The pro forma
         adjustments also assume that CMGI would record a valuation allowance
         for all state tax benefits associated with the AltaVista Business and
         Flycast. Actual effective tax rates may differ from pro forma rates
         reflected in this pro forma financial information.

     (H) The pro forma adjustment reflects the elimination of preferred stock
         accretion recorded in Flycast's historical financial statements.
         Assuming the acquisition of Flycast occurred on August 1, 1998, the
         preferred stock, to which this accretion relates, would not have been
         outstanding during the period covered by the pro forma statement of
         operations.

     (I) Since the pro forma statements of operations each result in a loss from
         continuing operations, the pro forma basic and diluted loss from
         continuing operations per common share are computed by dividing the
         loss from continuing operations available to common stockholders by the
         weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The calculations
         of the pro forma weighted average number of common shares outstanding
         assume that the 18,994,975 shares of CMGI's common stock issued in the
         acquisition of the AltaVista Business were outstanding for the entire
         periods. The calculations of the pro forma weighted average number of
         common shares outstanding also assume that the 18,090.45 shares of
         CMGI's Series D preferred stock were converted into 1,809,045 shares of
         CMGI common stock on October 11, 1998 (the 71st day after the assumed
         acquisition date of August 1, 1998) and that such common shares were
         outstanding for the entire period thereafter. The Series D preferred
         shares were converted into common stock on October 28, 1999 (the 71st
         day after the actual acquisition date of August 18, 1999).

     (J) Since the pro forma statements of operations each result in a loss from
         continuing operations, the pro forma basic and diluted loss from
         continuing operations per common share are computed by dividing the
         loss from continuing operations available to common stockholders by the
         weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The calculations
         of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding assume that
         the 18,994,975 shares of CMGI's common stock issued in the acquisition
         of the AltaVista Business and the 7.2 million shares of CMGI's common
         stock estimated to be issued in the acquisition of Flycast were
         outstanding for the entire period. The calculations of the weighted
         average number of common shares outstanding also assume that the
         18,090.45 shares of CMGI's Series D preferred stock were converted into
         1,809,045 shares of CMGI common stock on October 11, 1998 (the 71st day
         after the assumed acquisition date of August 1, 1998) and that such
         common shares were outstanding for the entire period thereafter. The
         Series D preferred shares were converted into common stock on October
         28, 1999 (the 71st day after the actual acquisition date of August 18,
         1999).
