NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1998
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principals for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01
of Regulations S-X. They do not include all information and notes required
by generally accepted accounting principals for complete financial
statements. However, except as disclosed, there has been no material change
in the information disclosed in the notes to financial statements included
in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of KnowledgeBroker, Inc. for the year
ended December 31, 1997. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month
period ended March 31, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1998.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
General
The Company's results of operations are strongly affected by the size and timing
of contracts for support desk services and software sales. Contracts for the
Company's Support desk services are often tied to the introduction of a new
computer product for which support will be required as the new product is
introduced and for a period of time thereafter. In other instances the Company
will have agreements for Support desk services that are not so much based on a
particular product but require more general support for personal computers and
that rely upon the Company's data base. Revenues for Support desk services,
accordingly, often fluctuate significantly. The direct personnel costs for
Support desk services also have to be managed carefully and fluctuate
significantly, depending upon the volume of calls generated by the Support desk
services.
Software sales, which include sales and licensing of the Company's AskMe Pro and
KnowledgeBases, also fluctuate significantly. However, the gross margins for
software sales and licensing are significantly larger than for Support desk
services.
Three Months Ended March 31, 1998, Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1997
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1998, decreased approximately
$400,000, to $255,663 from $655,149 for the 1997 three month period. In the 1997
period the Company began an agreement with two new significant clients for
Support desk services which had been completed in the second half of 1997. As a
result revenues from Support desk services declined to $127,324 in the first
three months of 1998 from $600,770 in the first three months of 1997. This
decline in revenues from Support desk services was partially offset by increased
sales and license revenues in the 1998 period, an increase to $128,339 from
$54,379.
Gross profit decreased in the later period to $137,252 from $373,918, largely
reflecting the large decrease in revenues from Support desk services. The
Company reduced the number of people staffing the Support desk services, but the
needs of the Company to retain a core group of personnel required to meet the
needs of the service resulted in Support desk services personnel amounting to
93% of the revenues generated from Support desk services.
The decrease in gross profit was not sufficient to cover operating expenses,
particularly since the Company had begun to increase its selling and marketing
efforts in the later part of 1997. In the 1998 period the Company's operating
loss was $69,312 with a net loss of $69,312 while the 1997 period saw an
operating loss of $1,208 and net income of $37,601. The income enjoyed in the
earlier period derived from net interest income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's operating capital has been provided by operations, the issuance of
stock and bank lines of credit. The Company's long-term continuation depends
upon its ability to generate profits. Because the Company's losses have largely
been funded with debt, its ongoing ability to survive will depend upon its
ability to increase revenues.
