NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1998 AND 1997
(UNAUDITED)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and
Item 310 of Regulation SB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for audited year-end financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments for normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine
month periods ended August 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending November 30, 1998. The
unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Company's Form 10KSB for the year ended November 30, 1997.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Telesoft Corp.
(the "Company"), together with its wholly owned subsidiary, Telesoft
Acquisition Corp. and its former 71% owned subsidiary, Telesoft Acquisition
Corp. II, d.b.a. GoodNet ("GoodNet").
The minority interest in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations
represents the minority shareholder's proportionate share of the net loss from
GoodNet during fiscal year 1997. As of November 30, 1997, there was no equity
attributable to the minority shareholders of GoodNet.
All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In February 1998, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement of Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share (SFAS 128). As
------------------
a result, earnings (loss) per share for all prior periods have been restated.
Diluted per share amounts are not presented when resulting in a loss per
share, as they are anti-dilutive.
Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting of the Costs of Start-Up Activities."
(SOP 98-5) issued by the Accounting Standards Executive Committee is effective
for financial statements with fiscal years beginning after December 1, 1998.
SOP 98-5 requires that the costs of start-up activities should be expensed as
incurred. At the time of adopting this SOP, the initial application should be
reported as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principles. The
Company does not believe that the adoption of the SOP will have a material
effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1998 AND 1997
(UNAUDITED)
2. SALE OF SUBSIDIARY
Effective January 12, 1998, the Company together with the minority
shareholders of GoodNet, entered into an agreement with WinStar
Communications, Inc. (WinStar) to sell the Company's Internet services
subsidiary for approximately $22.0 million, consisting of $3.5 million cash
and shares of common stock of WinStar (WCII: NASDAQ) having an aggregate
market value of approximately $18.5 million.
Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received approximately
$3,500,000 in cash plus 479,387 shares (based on the 20 day average price of
WinStar stock) of WinStar common stock, which had an aggregate fair market
value of approximately $13.9 million as of the close of business on January
12, 1998. After commissions and related expenses, the Company realized a
$13,810,689 pretax gain on the sale. Additionally, the Company received
$235,484 in cash to offset GoodNet's net cash disbursements from December 12,
1997 through the date of the sale.
As a result of the above transaction, the Company will be vacating a portion
of its office space in Phoenix, Arizona during the year ending November 30,
1998. As a result, the Company will have to take steps to sublease the
vacated space or pay an early termination fee estimated at $300,000. This
amount has been included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the
accompanying financial statements.
3. INVESTMENT SECURITIES-WCII STOCK
The Company accounts for its investment in WinStar as an available-for-sale
equity security, which accordingly is carried at market value. Pursuant to a
hedging strategy implemented by the Company in January, 1998, 440,000 WinStar
shares are hedged, utilizing the purchase of puts and the sale of calls in
combination to minimize the downside risk of loss should the price of WinStar
stock decline while allowing for limited upside participation should the stock
price rise. The call option is secured by shares of WinStar stock held by the
Company. As of August 31, 1998, the WinStar stock had an aggregate fair
market value of $12,958,813, resulting in an unrealized loss of $ 528,310 (net
of estimated income tax benefit of $415,100 as result of sale).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1998 AND 1997
The results of operations of the Company do not include the results of
operations of Telesoft Acquisition Corp. II, d.b.a. GoodNet ("GoodNet"), its
former 71% owned subsidiary which was sold effective January 12, 1998 and
which is treated as a discontinued operation in the Company's financial
statements.
Revenues increased by 33.6% to $17,630,623 for the nine months ended
August 31, 1998 compared to $13,187,103 for the nine months ended August 31,
1997. The Company's revenue is derived from three principal product lines and
services: STS Outsourcing Programs, System Sales and Maintenance, and
Customized Billing Outsourcing Services.
STS revenues were $12,253,000 for the nine months ended August 31, 1998
compared to $9,229,000 for the nine months ended August 31, 1997, an increase
of 32.8 %. A substantial portion of this increase is due to the implementation
of service at Rutgers University and the conversion of the University of
Southern California from the Company's Customized Billing Service to the STS
Program during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997, representing approximately
$1,523,000 and $907,000 in revenue, respectively. Revenues from System Sales
and Maintenance were $4,382,000 for the nine month ended August 31, 1998
compared to $3,204,000 for the nine months ended August 31, 1997, an increase
of 36.8%. For the nine months ended August 31, 1998 and 1997, revenues from
Customized Billing Outsourcing Services were approximately $996,000 and
$754,000, respectively. This increase is due to the development of customized
billing services for two primary customers, resulting in increased revenues of
approximately $595,000, offset by the conversion of the University of Southern
California to the STS Program, which contributed approximately $134,000 to
Customized Billing Service revenue in the nine months ended August 31, 1997.
Additionally, during the nine months ended August 31, 1997, non-recurring
revenue fore the initial development of the Company's product for NYNEX in the
amount of $342,000 was realized.
Total gross profit increased by 31.7% to $7,013,989 for the nine months
ended August 31, 1998 compared to $5,327,614 for the nine months ended August
31, 1997. Cost of goods sold was approximately 76% of STS revenues for each
of the nine months ended August 31, 1998 and August 31, 1997. Cost of goods
sold as a percentage of System Sales and Maintenance revenues was
approximately 29% for the nine months ended August 31, 1998 compared with 25%
for the nine months ended August 31, 1997. This increase is due to a higher
percentage of system sales revenues, which have a lower gross profit margin
than maintenance revenues, during the nine months ended August 31, 1998.
Operating expenses increased by 16.8%, or $920,264, for the nine months
ended August 31, 1998 to $6,384,632 from $5,464,368 for the nine months ended
August 31, 1997. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to
36% compared to 41% for the nine months ended August 31, 1997.
The provision for income taxes was $359,700 and $1,300 for the nine
months ended August 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This represents 41.4%
and 38.6% of income before provision for income taxes for each period.
Income from continuing operations increased to $508,895 for the first
nine months of fiscal 1998 from $2,071 in the comparable period of fiscal
1997. This is attributable to increased gross profit and increased controls
of operating expenses during the first nine months of fiscal 1998 compared to
the same period in fiscal 1997.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1998 AND 1997
The results of operations of the Company do not include the results of
operations of Telesoft Acquisition Corp. II, d.b.a. GoodNet ("GoodNet"), its
former 71% owned subsidiary which was sold effective January 12, 1998 and
which is treated as a discontinued operation in the Company's financial
statements.
Revenues increased by 29% to $3,505,137 for the three months ended August
31, 1998 compared to $2,713,537 for the three months ended August 31, 1997.
STS revenues were $1,241,000 for the three months ended August 31, 1998
compared to $961,000 for the three months ended August 31, 1997, an increase
of 29%. A substantial portion of this increase is due to the implementation of
service at Rutgers University and the conversion of the University of Southern
California from the Company's Customized Billing Service to the STS Program
during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997, representing approximately $99,000
and $147,000 in revenue, respectively. Revenues from System Sales and
Maintenance were $1,731,000 for the three month ended August 31, 1998 compared
to $1,309,000 for the three months ended August 31, 1997, an increase of 32%.
For the three months ended August 31, 1998 and 1997, revenues from Customized
Billing Outsourcing Services were approximately $533,000 and $444,000,
respectively. This increase is due to the development of customized billing
services for one primary customer, resulting in increased revenues of
approximately $132,000.
Total gross profit increased by 38% to $1,808,812 for the three months
ended August 31, 1998 compared to $1,306,914 for the three months ended August
31, 1997. Cost of goods sold was approximately 86% of STS revenues for the
three months ended August 31, 1998. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of
System Sales and Maintenance revenues was approximately 36% and 31% for the
three months ended August 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This increase is
due to a higher mix of system sales versus maintenance revenues than in the
prior year.
Operating expenses increased by 13%, or $248,690, for the three months
ended August 31, 1998 to $2,164,207 from $1,915,517 for the three months ended
August 31, 1997. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to
61.7% compared to 70.6% for the three months ended August 31, 1997.
The income tax benefit was $160,500 and $259,500 for the three months
ended August 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This represents 55%and 45% of
income before provision for income taxes for each period. This increase is
due to a higher percentage of non-taxable interest earned during the current
quarter.
Loss from continuing operations decreased to $126,890 for the third
quarter of fiscal 1998 from $316,584 in the second quarter of fiscal 1997.
This is primarily attributable to increased controls of operating expenses and
an improved gross profit from the Company's System Sales division to
$1,106,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 1998 from approximately $900,000 in
the third quarter of 1997.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS: TELESOFT ACQUISITION CORP. II, D.B.A. GOODNET
Effective January 12, 1998, the Company together with the minority
shareholders of GoodNet, entered into an agreement with WinStar
Communications, Inc. ("WinStar") to sell the Company's Internet services
subsidiary for approximately $22.0 million, consisting of $3.5 million cash
and shares of common stock of WinStar (WCII: NASDAQ) having an aggregate
market value of approximately $18.5 million.
Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received approximately
$3,500,000 in cash plus 479,387 shares (based on the 20 day average price of
WinStar stock) of WinStar common stock, which had an aggregate fair market
value of approximately $13.9 million as of the close of business on January
12, 1998. After commissions and related expenses, the Company realized a
$13,810,689 pretax gain ($8,162,389 after taxes) on the sale. Additionally,
the Company received $235,484 in cash to offset GoodNet's net cash
disbursements from November 12, 1997 through the date of the sale.
<PAGE>
MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL POSITION
Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $1,018,664 at August 31, 1998 from
$1,621,784 at November 30, 1997. During the nine months ended August 31,
1998, investment securities (excluding WCII Stock) increased $1,300,000.
Combined, the Company's cash and investment holdings increased approximately
$697,000. During the nine months ended August 31, 1998, activities from
continuing operations used approximately $228,000. This is down from net cash
provided from continuing operations of approximately $250,000 during the nine
months ended August 31, 1997. However, this decrease is due to the payment of
approximately $530,000 in income taxes during the current period.
Additionally, the Company used approximately $540,000 in cash to purchase
property and equipment for its continuing operations. The Company received
net cash proceeds of approximately $2,014,000 from the sale of discontinued
operations. Of this amount, $610,000 has been used for estimated income taxes
related to the sale.
Accounts receivable decreased to $3,816,341 from $7,185,435 as of
November 30, 1997 ($3,330,982 and $6,544,453, net of allowance for
uncollectibles as of August 31, 1998 and November 30, 1997 respectively).
This decrease is primarily due to seasonal fluctuation of the STS Outsourcing
and the sale of GoodNet, which had approximately $1,308,000 (before allowance
for uncollectibles), in accounts receivable at November 30, 1997. Accounts
receivable, before allowance for uncollectibles and excluding GoodNet related
receivables, at August 31, 1997 was approximately $3,112,000. The $704,000
increase in receivables reflects the Company's current growth.
As of August 31, 1998, the Company had a net current and deferred tax
liability of $3,928,616 compared with a net current and deferred tax asset of
$940,386 of November 30, 1997. This is primarily a result of the sale of
GoodNet, which resulted in an estimated current tax liability of $1,053,000
(of which, $610,000 has been paid to date) in connection with cash received
from the sale and a current deferred tax liability of approximately $4,182,800
in connection with the common stock of WinStar received in connection with the
sale. These amounts are net of a carry forward of approximately $412,500 in
tax benefit from fiscal 1997.
Property and equipment before accumulated depreciation decreased to
$2,601,227 from $5,151,229 as of November 30, 1997. This decrease is
primarily due the sale of GoodNet, which had approximately $2,916,000 in
unamortized property and equipment as of November 30, 1997. This results in
an increase of approximately $367,000 in property and equipment for continuing
operations. This is due to the purchase of approximately $70,000 in STS
equipment to support growth, the purchase of approximately $368,000 in
furniture, fixtures, and leasehold improvements as a result of the Company's
relocation of its office facilities, less approximately $120,000 in furniture
and fixtures sold and $30,000 in leasehold improvements from the old office
facilities that were retired.
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased to $2,340,768 from
$6,632,968 as of November 30, 1997. This decrease is primarily attributable
to seasonal fluctuation of STS Outsourcing and the sale of GoodNet, which had
$1,382,000 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of November 30,
1997. It is also attributable to the accrual of an estimated $300,000 early
termination fee the Company may have to pay should it be unable to sublease
the office space that may be vacated as a result of the GoodNet sale. (See
Note 2 to the financial statements). As of August 31, 1997, there was
approximately $1,373,000 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities resulting
from continuing operations. This approximate $968,000 increase is in part
attributable to the growth in STS revenue. STS cost of sales increased from
approximately $998,000 during the third quarter of fiscal 1997 to
approximately $1,071,000 during the third quarter of fiscal 1998.
Deferred revenue decreased to $756,184 from $1,245,806 as of November 30,
1997. This decrease is due to the sale of GoodNet, which had approximately
$585,000 in deferred revenue at November 30, 1997.
<PAGE>
FUTURE EXPECTATIONS
STS revenues are expected to increase for the fourth fiscal quarter of
1998 and through 1999. To date, eleven new universities have been implemented
for the program and will begin service during the fourth quarter of 1998.
The Company expects revenues from Customized Billing Services to increase
based upon existing proposals outstanding. However, it is not possible to
ascertain the amount of such increase until actual contracts are in place and
there can be no assurance that increased sales will materialize. During the
quarter ended August 31, 1998, Telesoft received authorization to implement a
convergence billing, reporting and support system as a subcontractor for
Pacific Bell and MCI customer care services for the State of California's new
CALNET contract. Under the subcontract, Telesoft will support MCI and Pacific
Bell in providing the same consolidated billing services to local government
and public universities. This services contract is valued at approximately $7
million over ten years.
The Company previously experienced delays in the release and installation
of certain modules of TelMaster, the "Client/Server" and "Graphical User
Interface" environment version of the Company's existing text based
telemanagement software modules. Certain modules of this product were
released in the third quarter of 1996, and installations have been completed
in the second and third quarters of 1997. Based on the full product release
in January 1998, the Company expects to sell and install a higher number of
TelMaster systems in fiscal 1998 and 1999; however, there can be no assurance
that increased sales will materialize.
It is anticipated that the cost of human resources will grow 15%-20% as
the Company increases its employee base to expand its sales, research and
development, implementation and support staff. This increase will ensure
adequate sales and support for anticipated short and long-term growth.
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements involve certain risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements. Certain factors which may cause such a difference
include, but are not limited to, the following: the impact of increased
competition from competitors with significant financial resources and market
share; unforeseen difficulties in integrating acquired businesses; and the
amount and rate of growth in general and administrative expenses associated
with building a strengthened corporate infrastructure to support operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At August 31, 1998, the Company had cash of $1,018,664, other investments
of $3,500,000, and 479,387 restricted shares of WinStar stock (WCII: NASDAQ),
with a fair market value of $12,958,813 (net of an estimated income tax
benefit of $415,100 on the unrealized loss). The Company believes that
present cash reserves available, along with anticipated cash flows from its
business, will be adequate to supply currently anticipated operating
requirements for the Company for the next 12 months. However, there can be no
assurance that the Company will not require additional funding within this
time frame. The Company could 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 attractive to the Company, or at all. Furthermore, any
additional equity financing could be dilutive to existing stockholders.
SEASONALITY
The Company generally completes the sale of the majority of STS
Outsourcing Program and STS Program system installations in the higher
education industry during the spring and early summer months. The
implementation and installation of these systems and services occurs during
the summer months. Revenues derived from STS Outsourcing Programs begin in
the fall and weaken during the winter holiday and the summer months when
university students are on vacation. As a result, the Company's revenues have
traditionally been highest during the second and fourth quarter.
