Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), including the September 30, 1999
consolidated balance sheet which has been derived from audited financial
statements, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. The operating results for the three and
nine-month periods ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2000. We
recommend that you refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
September 30, 1999.

NOTE B - RECLASSIFICATION

Certain prior-year financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform
to the current year's presentation.

NOTE C - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The Company observes the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which requires
companies to report all changes in equity during a period, except those
resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners, for the period
in which they are recognized. Comprehensive income is the total of net income
and all other non-owner changes in equity (or other comprehensive income) such
as unrealized gains/losses on securities classified as available-for-sale,
foreign currency translation adjustments and minimum pension liability
adjustments. Comprehensive and other comprehensive income must be reported on
the face of annual financial statements or in the case of interim reporting, the
footnote approach may be utilized. For the three and nine months ended June 30,
2000 and 1999, the Company's operations did not give rise to material items
includable in comprehensive income which were not already included in net
income. Accordingly, the Company's comprehensive income is the same as its net
income for all periods presented.

NOTE D - NET (LOSS) INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

The Company accounts for earnings per share pursuant to SFAS No. 128, "Earnings
Per Share". In accordance with SFAS No. 128, net (loss) income per common share
amounts ("basic EPS") were computed by dividing net (loss) income by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Net (loss)
income per common share amounts, assuming dilution ("diluted EPS"), were
computed by reflecting the potential dilution from the exercise of stock options
and stock warrants. SFAS No. 128 requires the presentation of both basic EPS and
diluted EPS on the face of the income statement.

Options to purchase shares of Common Stock in the nine months and three months
ended June 30, 2000, were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because
they were anti-dilutive. Options to purchase 44,000 shares of Common Stock in
the nine months and three months ended June 30, 1999, were not included in the
computation of diluted EPS because the exercise prices exceeded the average
market price of the common shares for these periods. These options were still
outstanding at the end of the related periods.

NOTE E - INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES

On November 1, 1999, Global Payment Technology Holdings (Proprietary) Limited
("GPTHL"), the Company's South African affiliate, formed International Payment
Systems Pty Ltd. ("IPS") and assigned to IPS its rights to all of the non-gaming
activities, primarily the distribution of Ingenico, De La Rue and Scan Coin
products. The Company currently has a 30% interest in IPS. GPTHL holds the
exclusive distribution rights to the Company's products in the South African
region. Also on November 1, 1999, On-Line Gaming Systems Inc. ("On-Line"), a
Florida-based Nasdaq-listed company specializing in internet wagering and other
casino-based products, acquired a 23.5% equity interest in GPTHL through the
purchase of shares from the three partners and management of GPTHL. With the
subsequent closing of this transaction, GPTHL repurchased 1,000 of its shares
owned by the Company. In addition, the Company sold 650 shares of its stock in
GPTHL to On-Line. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $330,000, resulting
in an after-tax gain of $221,000, on the two transactions. The Company now has a
23.5% interest in GPTHL.

NOTE F - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities". The Statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. SFAS No.
133 will be effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000 (as amended by SFAS No. 137) and will not require retroactive
restatement of prior period financial statements. The Company does not currently
use derivative instruments or engage in hedging activities and, accordingly,
does not expect that this statement will have an impact on its consolidated
financial statements when adopted.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Results of Operations

Nine months ended June 30, 2000 compared with nine months ended June 30, 1999

Sales

Net sales decreased by 57.5%, or $22,296,000, to $16,447,000 in the nine months
ended June 30, 2000 as compared with $38,743,000 in the comparative prior-year
period. The decline was primarily due to decreased demand for the Company's
products and delays in several projects.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased to $4,956,000, or 30.1% of net sales, in the nine months
ended June 30, 2000 from $15,394,000, or 39.7% of net sales, in the comparative
prior-year period. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales was
primarily the result of less efficient operations resulting from lower sales and
commensurate production during the period.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses decreased to $6,984,000, or 42.5% of net sales, in the nine
months ended June 30, 2000 as compared with $8,112,000, or 20.9% of net sales,
in the comparative prior-year period. This decrease of $1,128,000 was primarily
the result of a reduction in certain personnel related costs, as well as lower
shipping and commission costs. During the nine months ended June 30, 2000, the
Company was able to reduce operating expenses in light of the reduced revenue
performance. However, the significant revenue decrease resulted in an increase
in operating expenses as a percentage of net sales. During the quarter ended
June 30, 2000, the Company took action with a reduction in workforce to reduce
expenses, the full benefit of which will be realized in the fourth quarter.

Net Income

Net (loss) income for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, was ($961,000), or
($0.17) per share, as compared with $3,675,000, or $0.63 per share, in the
comparative prior-year period. In addition to its operations, the Company owns
interests in various unconsolidated affiliates in key regions of the world, all
of which are accounted for using the equity method. Included in the results of
operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 are the Company's
share of net profits (net losses) of these affiliates of $626,000 and
($1,350,000), respectively. In the nine months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
equity in income of unconsolidated affiliates includes an increase (decrease) of
approximately $589,000 and ($1,745,000), respectively, which represents the
recognition (deferral) of the Company's share of the gross profit on
intercompany sales to its affiliates that have (have not then) been recognized
by these affiliates. This improvement in profit is the result of a significant
decrease of inventory at the Company's affiliates. Excluding the intercompany
gross profit adjustment, the Company's share of net income of these
unconsolidated affiliates was $37,000 and $395,000 for the nine months ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. This decrease is primarily the result of
lower sales and profits at the Company's South African affiliate and start-up
costs relating to Abacus Financial Management Systems, Ltd. In addition, the
Company has a majority ownership in Global Payment Technologies (Europe) Limited
and Abacus Financial Management Systems, Ltd., USA, whose results are
consolidated in the Company's financial statements. With respect to the
provision for income taxes, the Company's June 30, 2000 effective tax rate was
29.8% as compared to 34.9% in the prior-year period. This decrease in the
effective tax rate is the result of the Company's change in mix of earnings from
operations and its earnings from its foreign affiliates. During the nine months
ended June 30, 2000, the Company recognized an after-tax gain of $221,000, or
$.04 per share, which was the result of the sale of a portion of the Company's
shares in its South African affiliate (see Note E). Excluding the effect of this
one-time gain, net loss was ($1,182,000), or ($.21) per share.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (continued)

Results of Operations (continued)

Three months ended June 30, 2000 compared with three months ended June 30, 1999

Sales

Net sales decreased by 75.2%, or $9,959,000, to $3,292,000 in the three months
ended June 30, 2000 as compared with $13,251,000 in the comparative prior-year
period. The decline was primarily due to decreased demand for the Company's
products and delays in several projects.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased to $384,000, or 11.7% of net sales, in the three months
ended June 30, 2000 from $5,273,000, or 39.8% of net sales, in the comparative
prior-year period. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales was
primarily the result of less efficient operations resulting from lower sales and
commensurate production during the quarter.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses decreased to $2,468,000, or 75.0% of net sales, in the three
months ended June 30, 2000 as compared with $2,512,000, or 19.0% of net sales,
in the comparative prior-year period. This increase in operating expenses as a
percentage of net sales is primarily the result of the Company's significant
revenue decrease. During the quarter ended June 30, 2000, the Company took
action with a reduction in workforce to reduce expenses, the full benefit of
which will be realized in the fourth quarter.

Net Income

Net (loss) income for the quarter was ($1,433,000), or ($.26) per share, as
compared with $1,249,000, or $.21 per share, in the comparative prior-year
period. In addition to its operations, the Company owns interests in various
unconsolidated affiliates in key regions of the world, all of which are
accounted for using the equity method. Included in the results of operations for
the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 are the Company's share of net
income (losses) of these affiliates of $174,000 and ($695,000), respectively. In
the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, equity in income of
unconsolidated affiliates includes an increase (decrease) of approximately
$300,000 and ($740,000), respectively, which represents the recognition
(deferral) of the Company's share of the gross profit on inter-company sales to
its affiliates that have (have not then) been recognized by these affiliates.
This improvement in profit is the result of a significant decrease of inventory
at the Company's affiliates. Excluding the inter-company gross profit
adjustment, the Company's share of net (losses) profits of these unconsolidated
affiliates was ($126,000) and $45,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000
and 1999, respectively. In addition, the Company has a majority ownership in
Global Payment Technologies (Europe) Limited and Abacus Financial Management
Systems, Ltd., USA, whose results are consolidated in the Company's financial
statements. With respect to the provision for income taxes, the Company's June
30, 2000 effective tax rate was 30.0% as compared to 36.2% in the prior-year
period. This decrease in the effective tax rate is the result of the Company's
change in mix of earnings from its foreign affiliates and the Company's earnings
from operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's capital requirements consist primarily of those necessary to
continue to expand and improve product development and manufacturing
capabilities, sales and marketing operations, investments in affiliates, and
interest payments on the Company's indebtedness. The Company believes that its
available resources, including its credit facilities, should be sufficient to
meet its obligations as they become due and permit continuation of its planned
expansion throughout fiscal 2000 and beyond.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

At June 30, 2000, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were $1,256,000 as
compared with $1,273,000 at September 30, 1999. On July 15, 1999, the Company
entered into a $10 million long-term credit agreement with The Chase Manhattan
Bank which is comprised of a $4,000,000 five-year term loan, payable in equal
monthly installments with a fixed interest rate of 7.66% per annum and a
$6,000,000 unsecured revolving line of credit ("RLC"). The term of the RLC is
three years and outstanding borrowings bear interest at the bank's prime rate,
or at the Company's option, for borrowings greater than $500,000, LIBOR plus a
range of 125 to 200 basis points. The precise borrowing rate is determined by
the Company's financial performance under certain covenants. As of June 30,
2000, the Company received a waiver for the lack of compliance with certain
covenants. This waiver increases interest rates on its RLC by 50 basis points
and amends the covenants for the next twelve months, which the Company feels is
sufficient to operate its business. The Company was in compliance at September
30, 1999. As of June 30, 2000, outstanding borrowings under the five-year term
loan and the RLC were $3,200,000 and $2,050,000, respectively.

Net cash used in operating activities was $254,000 in the nine months ended June
30, 2000. This amount is due to a net loss for the period, adjusted for non-cash
items, of $762,000, increased inventory of $2,774,000, decreased accrued
expenses and other current liabilities of $275,000, increased income taxes
receivable of $602,000 and a decrease in accounts payable of $151,000, offset,
in part, by decreased accounts receivable of $4,094,000 and decreased prepaid
expenses and other assets of $216,000. Net cash used in operating activities was
$2,029,000 in the nine months ended June 30, 1999. This amount is due to an
increase in accounts receivable of $7,946,000, an increase in prepaid expenses
and other assets of $149,000 and a decrease in accrued expenses and other
current liabilities of $560,000, offset, in part, by net income for the period,
adjusted for non-cash items, of $5,429,000, a decrease in inventory of $600,000,
increased accounts payable of $273,000 and an increase in income taxes payable
of $324,000.

Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2000
amounted to $466,000 as compared with $586,000 in the prior-year period.
Investments in property and equipment in the nine months ended June 30, 2000
amounted to $386,000 as compared with $420,000 in 1999. In addition, the Company
loaned its joint ventures approximately $180,000 in the nine months ended June
30, 2000, as compared with $166,000 in the prior year period, which has been
added to the investment in unconsolidated affiliates based on the terms of the
related agreements. Finally, in the nine months ended June 30, 2000, the Company
received proceeds of $100,000 from the partial sale of its share of its South
African affiliate.

Cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended June 30, 2000
consisted of proceeds of $980,000 received from the exercise of stock options
and warrants, offset in part by net repayments of bank borrowings of $277,000.
Cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended June 30, 1999
consisted of net proceeds from bank borrowings of $3,097,000, augmented by
proceeds of $123,000 received from the exercise of stock options and warrants.
In addition, in the nine months ended June 30, 1999, cash provided by financing
activities was used for the repurchase of the Company's common stock for
$247,000.
