NOTES to the CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2002 and 2001 1. Nature of Business: Eiger Technology, Inc. ("the Company") is incorporated under the laws of Ontario. Through its various subsidiaries, the Company offers Voice over Internet Protocol services to the Canadian long-distance market and manufactures and distributes electronic/computer peripherals and electronic ballasts to OEM and consumer markets worldwide. 2. Significant Accounting Policies: (a) Basis of Preparation: These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada ("Cdn. GAAP"). A reconciliation to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") is provided in Note 13. Because a precise determination of assets and liabilities depends on future events, the preparation of periodic financial statements necessitates the use of estimates and approximations. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates. (b) Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Eiger Technology, Inc. and all of its subsidiary companies as listed in Note 3. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. (c) Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on account and short-term investments with remaining maturities of three months or less at acquisition. (d) Inventory: Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis and includes the costs of materials and direct labour plus the applicable share of manufacturing overhead. (e) Investments: All non-consolidated investments are accounted for at cost. Short-term investments are written down to market value when less than cost. Long-term investments are written down to market value when a decline in market value below the carrying value is considered to be other than temporary. EIGER TECHNOLOGY, INC. NOTES to the CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2002 and 2001 2. Significant Accounting Policies - continued: (f) Capital Assets: Capital assets are recorded at cost. Amortization is calculated on the declining-balance basis at the following annual rates: Buildings - 4-5% Machinery and Equipment - 5-10% Automotive Equipment - 20-30% Computer Equipment - 20-30% Leasehold Improvements - 10% straight line basis (g) Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of the Companys interest in subsidiary companies over the fair value of the underlying net identifiable assets at the time of acquisition. Goodwill is amortized over 10 years on a straight-line basis (40 years for acquisitions prior to 1997). Goodwill arising on acquisitions after June 30, 2001 is not amortized. Management evaluates the expected future net cash flows of the companies at each reporting date and adjusts goodwill for any impairment. (h) Other Assets: Product development costs meeting generally accepted criteria for deferral are written down to expected realizable value, and are amortized once production commences over periods ranging from three to ten years, depending on the anticipated economic life of the particular product. Deferred organization, finance, and regulatory approval costs are amortized over 2 to 5 years. Long-term lease deposits are recorded at cost. (i) Income Taxes: Income taxes are provided using the liability method of tax allocation. Under this method, future tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the substantially enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. (j) Issuance of Share Capital: The costs of issuing share capital are netted against share capital. EIGER TECHNOLOGY, INC. NOTES to the CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2002 and 2001 2. Significant Accounting Policies - continued: (k) Revenue Recognition: Sales are recorded upon shipment of goods to customers. Fees are recognized as services are rendered. (l) Foreign Currency Translation: Due to the extensive degree of financing provided to its foreign subsidiaries by the Company, these subsidiaries are considered to be integrated operations. Accordingly, the temporal method of foreign currency translation is used. Under this method, monetary assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Canadian dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, non-monetary items are translated at historical exchange rates (except for items carried at market, which are translated at the balance sheet date exchange rate), and revenues and expenses are translated using average exchange rates to approximate the rates actually in effect at the time of the transactions. Resulting foreign exchange translation gains or losses are included in the determination of net income for the year, except for such gains or losses relating the translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated long-term monetary items which are deferred and amortized over the remaining life of the monetary item. There were no material exchange gains or losses on long-term foreign currency denominated monetary items during either of the reporting periods. (m) Stock-based Compensation: No compensation expense is recognized for stock options granted to employees. Options are granted at the fair market value of the shares on the day of the grant. Any consideration paid by employees on the exercise of stock options is credited to share capital. (n) Earnings per Share: Basic earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock method based on the weighted average number of shares that would have been outstanding during the year had all the dilutive options been exercised at the beginning of the year, or date of issuance if later, and assuming that option proceeds would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the year.

EIGER TECHNOLOGY, INC. NOTES to the CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2002 and 2001 10. Financial Instruments: (a) Fair Value: Cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable and payable, and bank indebtedness are carried at cost which approximates fair value due to their short time to maturity. Management believes the carrying value of long-term investments to be equivalent to their fair market value. The fair values of the Company's long-term debt obligations, based on current rates for debt with similar terms and maturities, are approximately the same as their carrying values. (b) Interest Rate Risk: The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to the short-term maturity of its current monetary assets and liabilities. The Company's interest rate risk pertaining to its long-term debt obligations is not considered to be significant due to the relatively low amounts involved. (c) Credit Risk: The Company's financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of short-term investments, accounts receivable, and long-term investments. Short-term investments consist solely of money market funds and short-term commercial paper issued by investment-rated Canadian financial institutions which are invested for terms not exceeding 90 days. The Company, in the normal course of business, is exposed to credit risk from its customers. Management believes that sufficient allowance has been made for bad debts in these financial statements based on a review of accounts on an individual basis. The concentration of credit risk in trade accounts receivable is not considered to be significant due to the Company's large client base. The Company is also exposed to credit risk with respect to its long-term advances to Lexatec VR Systems Inc. and certain subsidiary investments. Advances to Lexatec VR Systems Inc. are partially secured by a pledge of reciprocal shareholdings. EIGER TECHNOLOGY, INC.

For fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998, U.S. GAAP requires that all organization costs (including those previously deferred) be expensed currently. Also, all product development costs are to be expensed as incurred. U.S. GAAP requires the measurement and reporting of "comprehensive income". Comprehensive income includes net income and all other changes to Shareholders' Equity other than amounts received from or paid to shareholders. The only reportable comprehensive income item for the Company relates to foreign currency translation adjustments as described below. U.S. GAAP requires the use of the current rate method of foreign currency translation, with any resulting foreign exchange translation adjustments forming part of comprehensive income for the year and accumulating as a separate component of shareholders' equity. APB Opinion 25 requires the intrinsic value based method be used to measure stock option compensation. As the Company grants stock options at fair market value, no compensation is recognized. SFAS No. 123 requires pro-forma disclosure of net income and earnings per share as if the fair value method had been applied. Reconciliations to U.S. GAAP are as follows:

GAAP (5,238,000) (20,327,000) - expense deferred product development costs net of portion relating to non-controlling interest 298,000 856,000 - expense deferred organization costs net of portion relating to non-controlling interest -- 219,000 - foreign currency translation adjustment 341,000 191,000 - future income tax savings related to above (100,000) (347,000) ----------- ----------- - per U.S. GAAP (4,699,000) (19,408,000) ----------- ----------- Comprehensive item - foreign exchange adjustment (341,000) (191,000) ----------- ----------- Comprehensive Income (5,040,000) (19,599,000) =========== ===========

Pro-forma Disclosure (SFAS No. 123): Had SFAS No. 123 been followed, net income would have decreased by $285,000 in fiscal 2002 (2001: $1,766,000), and basic and fully diluted earnings per share would have been (.15) and (.15) respectively (2001: (.64) and (.64)).
