                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements were
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in
the Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 should be read in
conjunction with the accompanying statements. These statements include all
adjustments, which the Company believes are necessary for a fair presentation of
the statements. The interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of
the results for a full year.

    The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 1996
include the accounts of RomTech, Inc., ("RomTech"), which successfully completed
an initial public offering on October 18, 1995 with Applied Optical Media
Corporation ("AOMC"), which merged with RomTech concurrent with the completion
of RomTech's public offering, and Virtual Reality Laboratories, Inc. ("VRLI"),
its wholly owned subsidiary, which was acquired on April 5, 1996 in a
transaction accounted for using the pooling of interests method of accounting.
As further described in Note 2, the AOMC merger was accounted for as a reverse
acquisition whereby AOMC was deemed to be the acquiring entity for accounting
purposes. In addition, the fiscal 1996 financial statements have been restated
to reflect VRLI's operations on a pooled basis. Accordingly, the consolidated
statements of operations include the activities of the following entities for
the following periods:

         o July 1, 1995 to October 17, 1995 - AOMC and VRLI 
         o October 18, 1995 to December 31, 1995 - RomTech, AOMC and VRLI
         o July 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996 - RomTech, AOMC and VRLI

Description of Business

    RomTech, Inc. (the "Company") is a Pennsylvania Corporation, which was
incorporated in July 1992. The Company develops, publishes, markets and is a
reseller of a diversified line of personal computer software for consumer,
educational and business applications. The Company's sales are primarily made
through retail stores, by direct mail and sales of CD-ROM titles in jewel case
packaging at computer trade shows.

Consolidation

    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Virtual Reality Laboratories, Inc. All
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

2.   Completion of Pubic Offering/Merger

Applied Optical Media Corporation ("AOMC")

    On October 18, 1995, the Company merged with AOMC, whereby the stockholders
of AOMC exchanged all their outstanding shares for 1,575,000 common shares of
the Company and 425,000 warrants to purchase common shares at $.50 per share. In
addition, concurrently with the Merger certain stockholders of AOMC exchanged
debt with a carrying value of $1,936,452 for 1,000,000 shares of convertible
preferred stock, a $300,000, 8.75% note payable, a $50,000 cash payment and
forgiveness of $586,607 of debt. The preferred stock has a face value of

                                 RomTech, Inc.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

$1,000,000 and is convertible into common stock of the Company beginning two
years after October 18, 1995 at a price of $3.30 per share. The Company has the
right to redeem the preferred stock for an aggregate redemption price of
$1,000,000.

    As a result of the AOMC merger, the former stockholders of AOMC had a
majority of the voting rights of the combined enterprise on a fully diluted, if
converted basis. Therefore, for accounting purposes, AOMC was considered the
acquirer (reverse acquisition). The cost of acquiring the Company was based on
the fair market value of the Company's net assets, which approximated their
recorded value.

    In connection with the reverse acquisition, the outstanding shares of the
Company and the shares of the Company issued to AOMC stockholders have been
reflected as a recapitalization of the previously outstanding AOMC common stock.

    On October 18, 1995, the Company consummated an initial public offering of
1,550,000 shares of common stock at a price of $3.00 per share resulting in net
proceeds of $4,070,500 before deducting offering costs of $446,704.

    In connection with the Company's initial public offering the Company's Chief
Executive Officer ("CEO") and a vice president each agreed to transfer 200,000
shares of the Company's common stock owned by them to PJM Trading Company
("PJM") in connection with certain services provided to the Company by PJM
related to the Company's capital raising activity at the time of the initial
public offering. The Company's vice president effected the share transfer in May
1996. As of December 31, 1996, the Company's CEO had not yet effected the
transfer of his shares to PJM. For accounting purposes, the transfer of shares
by these principal shareholders is presumed to benefit the Company and should be
recognized in the financial statements of the Company. Therefore, the shares
transferred would result in a contribution of stock to the Company by the
principal shareholders and the issuance of shares to PJM for the same value.
These transactions have not been separately recognized in the Company's
financial statements since they had no net effect on the results of operations
or shareholders' equity.

Virtual Reality Laboratories, Inc. ("VRLI")

    On April 5, 1996, the Company acquired VRLI, a California corporation, in a
transaction structured as a merger of VRLI with a newly formed subsidiary of the
Company ("RomTech subsidiary"), with the RomTech subsidiary as the surviving
corporation. VRLI, which is located in San Luis Obispo, California, publishes
software for use on desktop computers. Its products include business forms and
imaging processing software targeted for the small-office, home-office market,
three-dimensional landscape rendering software and astronomy software for
special interest users and the education market. In connection with the
acquisition, the Company issued a total of 1,284,440 shares of its common stock,
in exchange for all of the equity interests of Virtual Reality, which included
common stock, stock options, convertible subordinated debt and a $100,000
promissory note to an officer and stockholder of VRLI. In addition, the Company
incurred acquisition-related expenses of approximately $757,804, including
$204,340 in the form of the Company's Common Stock, related to investment
banking, consulting, accounting and legal costs which were charged to
operations. This acquisition was accounted for using the pooling-of-interests
method, and accordingly the Company's historical financial statements presented
have been restated to include the accounts and results of operations of VRLI.

3.  Liquidity

    As of December 31, 1996, the Company's cash and working capital balances
were $821,000 and $575,000, respectively. To date the Company continues to
operate at a loss. At December 31, 1996 the Company does not satisfy the minimum
level of stockholders' equity required to be listed ($1,000,000) for trading on
the Nasdaq Small Cap Market(TM). During the six months ended December 31, 1996,
the Company has successfully completed an issuance of convertible preferred
stock amounting to $1,100,340 in net proceeds. During January 1997, an
additional $28,000 in net proceeds relating to this offering was received by the
Company. The Company is currently seeking additional capital to, among other
things, increase its stockholders' equity to at least the minimum level
required. The Company's ability to achieve positive cash flow depends upon a
variety of factors, including the timeliness and success of developing and
selling its products, the costs of developing, producing and marketing such
products and various other factors, some of which may be beyond the Company's
control. In the future, the Company's capital requirements will be affected by
each of these factors. Although, the Company believes cash and working capital
balances will be sufficient to fund the Company's operations for the foreseeable
future, the Company plans to raise additional capital and it will seek such

Acquisition

    On September 27, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement in principle to
acquire FileABC(TM), a Nevada Limited Partnership, ("FileABC") in exchange for
$500,000 in cash and 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock and an
additional 1,000,000 shares contingent upon achieving certain revenue targets.
The terms of the agreement were amended on October 18, 1996, whereby FileABC
will be paid $325,000 in cash in addition to the interim payments of $50,000 on
July 17, 1996 and $125,000 on October 30, 1996. Additionally, a maximum of
1,200,000 shares will be paid to FileABC for each $1,000,000 of revenues
generated from the sale of FileABC's current software product and any
enhancements or derivative products on or before March 31, 2000. FileABC
develops, publishes and markets document imaging, management and archiving
software for the Windows(TM) operating systems. The acquisition of FileABC is
subject to certain conditions and, if completed, the acquisition will be
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

4.  Other Matters (continued)

Private Placement of Class Two Convertible Preferred Stock

On January 30, 1997, the Company completed a private placement of 1,271,340
shares of Class Two Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Convertible Preferred
Stock ") and 355,975 Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase
355,975 shares of the Company's Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of
$1,271,340. The number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock which is
convertible into Common Stock beginning on May 15, 1997 are 1,171,340 shares
which were issued on November 15, 1996 in exchange for cash. An additional
100,000 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, which was issued in exchange for
the forgiveness of $100,000 of debt as of January 30, 1997, will be convertible
into Common Stock beginning on July 30, 1997. The Convertible Preferred Stock is
convertible at the option of the holder beginning six months following the date
of issuance into the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of
shares of Convertible Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion divided by the
conversion price, which will be the lower of (i) $5.00 or (ii) ninety percent
(90%) of the average of the closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock for
the ten (10) business days immediately preceding the date on which the
Securities and Exchange Commission declares effective the registration statement
filed by the Company pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement between the
Company and purchasers of the Convertible Preferred Stock. Each Warrant entitles
the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at any time during the period
beginning six (6) months after the date of issuance of the Warrant until five
years after the date of issuance at a price equal to the lesser of (i) $6.25 or
(ii) the average of the closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock plus
$1.25, for the same ten (10) day period as the Convertible Preferred Stock. The
Company also granted 177,988 Warrants, to purchase 177,988 shares of the
Company's Common Stock, to the investment advisor ("Advisor Warrants") engaged
by the Company to assist in the private placement of the Class Two Preferred.
The terms and conditions of the Adviser Warrants are identical to the Warrants,
except that the Adviser Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $6.00.

    The aforementioned sales of securities will result in significant dilution
to the current holders of Common Stock. In addition, due to specific accounting
guidance recently promulgated by the SEC, the Company's loss per share will be
negatively impacted since the Class Two Preferred Stock (as hereinafter defined)
contains a beneficial conversion feature that will be accounted for in a manner
similar to a preferred stock dividend. The intrinsic value of the beneficial
conversion feature of the Class Two Preferred is estimated to be $330,000. This
amount will be amortized to accumulated deficit over approximately six months,
which represents the initial conversion period. The amount amortized, which is
analogous to a preferred stock dividend, increases the net loss attributable to
common stockholders. For the six months ended December 31, 1996, $86,858 was
amortized to the accumulated deficit.

                Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                       Condition and Results of Operations

    The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 1996
include the accounts of RomTech, Inc., ("RomTech"), which successfully completed
an initial public offering on October 18, 1995 with Applied Optical Media
Corporation ("AOMC"), which merged with RomTech concurrent with the completion
of RomTech's public offering, and Virtual Reality Laboratories, Inc. ("VRLI"),
its wholly owned subsidiary, which was acquired on April 5, 1996 in a
transaction accounted for using the pooling of interests method of accounting.
As further described in Note 2, the AOMC merger was accounted for as a reverse
acquisition whereby AOMC was deemed to be the acquiring entity for accounting
purposes. In addition, the fiscal 1996 financial statements have been restated
to reflect VRLI's operations on a pooled basis. Accordingly, the consolidated
statements of operations include the activities of the following entities for
the following periods:

         o July 1, 1995 to October 17, 1995 - AOMC and VRLI
         o October 18, 1995 to December 31, 1995 - RomTech, AOMC and VRLI
         o July 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996 - RomTech, AOMC and VRLI

    Management believes that the results of operations for the three months and
six months ended December 31, 1996 may not be indicative of anticipated future
results because of significant changes to be made in the combined businesses of
AOMC, RomTech and VRLI (see note 2 to the financial statements). The acquisition
of VRLI was accounted for using the pooling-of-interests method of accounting,
and accordingly the Company's historical consolidated financial statements have
been restated to include the accounts and results of operations of VRLI.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended December 31, 1996 and 1995

    Net revenues for three months ended December 31, 1996 were $1,058,000,
compared to $675,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1995, representing
an increase of $383,000 or 56.7%. This increase resulted primarily from
increases in the distribution through the retail and direct mail channels of
company developed titles and in the reselling of budget category jewel case
products through the trade show channel.

    Cost of revenues consist primarily of packaging costs (boxes and jewel
cases), CD-ROM pressing or replication activities through third party vendors
and royalty expenses. The cost of revenues for the three months ended December
31, 1996 was $365,000 compared to $227,000 for the three months ended December
31, 1995, representing an increase of $138,000 or 60.8% due mainly from the
increase in revenues. The Company's gross profit margin increased to 65.5% in
the three months ended December 31, 1996 from 66.4% for the three months ended

and product testing. Product development expenses for the three months ended

December 31, 1995, a decrease of $108,000 or 65.5%. The primary cause for this
decrease was a $90,000 reimbursement for a development contract.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended
December 31, 1996 were $1,270,000 compared to $708,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 1995 representing an increase of $562,000 or 79.4%. The
increase was primarily attributable to increases in: sales and marketing costs
$278,000, salary and related costs $31,000, commissions $84,000, depreciation
and amortization $50,000, outside services $87,000 and professional services
$24,000.

                Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Six Months Ended December 31, 1996 and 1995

    Net revenues for the six months ended December 31, 1996 were $2,130,000
compared to $1,304,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1995, representing
an increase of $826,000 or 63.3%. This increase resulted primarily from
increases in the distribution through the retail and direct mail channels of
Company developed titles and in the reselling of budget category jewel case
products through the trade show channel.

    Cost of revenues consist primarily of packaging costs (boxes and jewel
cases), CD-ROM pressing or replication activities through third party vendors
and royalty expenses. The cost of revenues for the six months ended December 31,
1996 was $683,000 compared to $433,000 for the six months ended December 31,
1995, representing an increase of $250,000 or 57.7% due mainly from the increase
in revenues. The Company's gross profit margin increased to 68.0% in the six
months ended December 31, 1996 from 66.8% for the six months ended December 31,
1995.

    Product development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, supplies
and product testing. Product development expenses for the six months ended
December 31, 1996 were $179,000 compared to $302,000 for the six months ended
December 31, 1995, a decrease of $123,000 or 40.7%. The primary cause for this
decrease was a $90,000 reimbursement for a development contract.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended
December 31, 1996 were $2,296,000 compared to $1,100,000 for the six months
ended December 31, 1995, representing an increase of $1,196,000 or 108.7%. The
increase was primarily attributable to increases in: sales and marketing costs
$588,000, salary and related costs $153,000, commissions $162,000, depreciation
and amortization $98,000, outside services $91,000 and professional services
$36,000.

    Net interest expense for the six months ended December 31, 1996 was $28,000
compared to $79,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1995, a decrease of
$51,000 or 64.6%. This decrease is due primarily to the reduction of long-term
debt related to the Merger between RomTech, Inc. and AOMC and the investment of
the proceeds from the IPO.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The financial information presented reflects the Company's financial position at
December 31, 1996.

    As of December 31, 1996, the Company's cash and working capital balances
were $821,000 and $575,000, respectively. To date the Company continues to
operate at a loss. At December 31, 1996 the Company did not satisfy the minimum
level of stockholders' equity required to be listed ($1,000,000) for trading on
the Nasdaq SmallCap Market(TM). During the six months ended December 31, 1996,
the Company successfully completed the sale of convertible preferred stock
resulting in $1,100,340 in net proceeds. During January 1997, an additional
$28,000 in net proceeds relating to this offering was received by the Company.
The Company is currently seeking additional capital to, among other things,
increase its stockholders' equity to at least the minimum level required. The
Company's ability to achieve positive cash flow depends upon a variety of
factors, including the timeliness and success of developing and selling its
products, the costs of developing, producing and marketing such products and
various other factors, some of which may be beyond the Company's control. In the
future, the Company's capital requirements will be affected by each of these
factors. The Company plans to raise additional capital and it will seek such
funding through additional public or private financings. There can be no
assurances that the Company will achieve a positive cash flow or that additional
financing will be available if and when required or, if available, will be on
terms satisfactory to the Company. Currently, the Company has no significant
capital expenditure commitments.
