SEE NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. -3- INFORMATION HOLDINGS INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) A. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated balance sheet of Information Holdings Inc. (IHI, or the Company) at December 31, 1999 has been derived from IHI's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended. All other consolidated financial statements contained herein have been prepared by IHI and are unaudited. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999 and the notes thereto contained in IHI's Annual Report on Form 10-K. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of IHI as of June 30, 2000, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the periods presented herein. Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. B. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Inventories at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 consist solely of finished goods. The vast majority of inventories are books, which are reviewed periodically on a title-by-title basis for salability. The cost of inventory determined to be impaired is charged to income in the period of determination. C. PRE-PUBLICATION COSTS Certain expenses related to books, primarily comprised of design and other pre-production costs, are deferred and charged to expense over the estimated product life. These costs are primarily amortized over a four-year period following release of the applicable book, using an accelerated amortization method. During 2000 and 1999, the Company removed from its Balance Sheets fully amortized pre-publication costs with a cost of approximately $3,554,000 and $1,645,000, respectively. D. INVESTMENT IN TECHEX On May 2, 2000, the Company formed an alliance with Intellectual Property Technology Exchange, Inc. (TechEx) to jointly develop and market products to address the online needs of the technology licensing industry. As part of the alliance, the Company acquired a preferred interest which is convertible into a 21.5% equity interest in TechEx for cash consideration of approximately $2,000,000. TechEx is a leader in intellectual property exchange for the biomedical industry. -4- INFORMATION HOLDINGS INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued) E. SECONDARY OFFERING On March 14, 2000, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective the Company's registration statement on Form S-3, pursuant to which the Company completed a public offering on March 20, 2000 of 4,500,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $36.50 per share. The net proceeds to the Company, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses was approximately $155,000,000. The net proceeds from this offering will be used to develop and market the CorporateIntelligence.com website, to finance future acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. F. EARNINGS PER SHARE DATA The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated.

During the first half of 2000, employees exercised stock options to acquire 115,522 shares at an exercise price of between $12.00 and $19.125 per share. G. IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities". This standard amends SFAS No. 133. "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", and addresses a limited number of issues causing implementation difficulties. The adoption of SFAS No. 138 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. -5- INFORMATION HOLDINGS INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued) H. ACQUISITIONS The pro forma unaudited results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999, assuming consummation of the 1999 acquisitions of MDC and Faxpat as of January 1, 1999 are as follows:

These pro forma results of operations have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the operating results that would have occurred had the acquisitions been consummated as of the above date, nor are they necessarily indicative of future operating results. I. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has identified the following two reportable segments: intellectual property (IP) and scientific and technology information (STI). The intellectual property segment, through its CorporateIntelligence.com unit, which includes MicroPatent and MDC, provides a broad array of databases, information products and complementary services for intellectual property professionals. The scientific and technology information segment is CRC Press, which publishes professional and academic books, journals, newsletters and electronic databases covering areas such as life sciences, environmental sciences, engineering, mathematics, physical sciences and business.

(2) Depreciation and amortization includes $1,110,000 and $1,247,000 of amortization of pre-publication costs, included in operations in cost of sales for each of the six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. -7- INFORMATION HOLDINGS INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1999 -------------------------------------------- REVENUES. In the second quarter of 2000, the Company had revenues of $16.2 million compared to revenues of $13.0 million in the second quarter of 1999, an increase of $3.2 million or 24.7%. The increase in revenues is primarily due to an increase in Internet-based sales of patent information of approximately $1.1 million at MicroPatent and an increase of $0.9 million in sales of patent file histories at Optipat and Faxpat, businesses acquired in fiscal 1999. Revenues at Master Data Center, which was acquired in August 1999, amounted to $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. These increases were partially offset by a decline of $0.9 million in overall book sales at CRC Press, primarily the result of lower international book sales and the timing of new title releases. The international sales decline relates to the termination of a distribution agreement in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. International revenues while lower than the prior year have increased 54.4% over first quarter levels and are expected to continue to grow as the Company's use of its international sales force and non-exclusive distributors expand. COST OF SALES. Cost of sales increased $1.0 million or 29.3% to $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $3.5 million in the corresponding quarter in 1999. Cost of sales expressed as a percentage of revenues in the second quarter of 2000 increased to 28.3% from 27.3% for the corresponding quarter of 1999. The slight increase in the costs of sales over the comparable period in 1999 is primarily attributable to the acquisition of MDC, which has a higher cost structure than the other existing units. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES (SG&A). S,G&A expenses increased $0.8 million or 11.1% in the second quarter of 2000, to $7.9 million from $7.1 million in the second quarter of 1999. Increased S,G&A expenses relate primarily to operating expenses of businesses acquired in 1999 and development expenses of CorporateIntelligence.com, partly offset by a decline in personnel costs and improved efficiency levels in marketing and production at CRC Press. S,G&A expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 48.7% in the second quarter of 2000, compared to 54.7% in the corresponding 1999 quarter. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization in the second quarter of 2000 increased $1.2 million, or 112.8%, to $2.3 million from $1.1 million in the corresponding quarter in 1999, primarily as a result of the amortization of intangible assets of businesses acquired in the last half of fiscal 1999. INTEREST INCOME (EXPENSE). Interest income (expense) increased to $2.3 million from $0.6 million due primarily to interest earned on the proceeds from the secondary public stock offering completed in March 2000. INCOME TAXES. The provision for income taxes as a percentage of pre-tax income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 is 42.0%, which differs from the statutory rate primarily as a result of state and local income taxes and non-deductible amortization in excess of the purchase price over net assets acquired. This compares with an effective tax rate of 39.4% in the prior year. -8- INFORMATION HOLDINGS INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued) Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 ------------------------------------------ REVENUES. In the first six months of 2000, the Company had revenues of $32.3 million compared to revenues of $25.0 million in the first half of 1999, an increase of $7.3 million or 28.9%. The increase in revenues is primarily due to an increase in Internet-based sales of patent information of approximately $2.3 million at MicroPatent and an increase of $1.6 million in sales of patent file histories at Optipat and Faxpat, businesses acquired in fiscal 1999. Revenues at Master Data Center, which was acquired in August 1999, amounted to $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000. These increases were partially offset by a decline of $0.9 million in international book sales and $0.4 million of electronic product revenue at CRC Press. The Company had previously terminated an international distribution agreement in January 2000, and was contractually restricted from selling many of its scientific information products internationally for a 45-day period. Second quarter international sales increased from first quarter levels and further improvements are expected in the second half of 2000. COST OF SALES. Cost of sales increased $2.4 million or 35.7% to $9.1 million in the first half of 2000 compared to $6.7 million in the corresponding period in 1999. Cost of sales expressed as a percentage of revenues in the first six months of 2000 increased to 28.4% from 26.9% for the corresponding period of 1999. The increase in the cost of sales percentage over the comparable period in 1999 is primarily attributable to the acquisition of MDC, which has lower gross margins than the other existing units. Gross margins at CRC Press and MicroPatent improved, due to product mix and the successful integration of acquired businesses. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES (SG&A). S,G&A expenses increased $1.1 million or 8.0% in the first six months of 2000, to $14.8 million from $13.7 million for the first half of 1999. Increased S,G&A expenses relate primarily to operating expenses of businesses acquired in 1999 and development expenses of CorporateIntelligence.com, partly offset by a decline in selling costs and improved efficiency levels in marketing and production at CRC Press. S,G&A expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 45.8% in the first half of 2000, compared with 54.7% in the corresponding 1999 period. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization for the first half of 2000 increased $2.4 million, or 115.6%, to $4.4 million from $2.0 million in the corresponding period in 1999, primarily as a result of the amortization of intangible assets of businesses acquired in the last half of fiscal 1999. INTEREST INCOME (EXPENSE). Interest income (expense) increased to $2.6 million from $1.1 million due primarily to interest earned on the proceeds from the secondary public stock offering completed in March 2000. INCOME TAXES. The provision for income taxes as a percentage of pre-tax income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 is 42.4%, which differs from the statutory rate primarily as a result of state and local income taxes and non-deductible amortization in excess of the purchase price over net assets acquired. This compares with an effective tax rate of 39.0% in the prior year. -9- INFORMATION HOLDINGS INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued) LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES: In the first quarter of 2000, the Company sold 4,500,000 shares of its common stock in a public offering for approximately $155.0 million of net proceeds. The proceeds from this offering will be used for the development and marketing of the CorporateIntelligence.com website, to finance future acquisitions, and for general corporate purposes. The Company does not have any agreements or arrangements with respect to any prospective material acquisitions. Pending such uses, the proceeds will be invested in short-term, investment grade securities. On September 24, 1999, the Company entered into a seven-year revolving credit facility in an amount not to exceed $50,000,000 initially, including a $10,000,000 sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit (the Credit Facility). The proceeds from the Credit Facility are intended to be used to fund acquisitions, to meet short-term working capital needs and for general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at either the higher of the bank's prime rate and one-half of 1% in excess of the overnight federal funds rate plus a margin of 0.50% to 1.25% or the Eurodollar Rate plus a margin of 1.5% to 2.25%, depending on the Company's ratio of indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company also pays a commitment fee of 0.375% on the unused portion of the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2000, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company is required to maintain certain financial ratios related to fixed charge coverage, leverage and interest coverage, in addition to certain other covenants. As of June 30, 2000, the Company was in compliance with all covenants. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $166.5 million at June 30, 2000 compared to $7.6 million at December 31, 1999. Excluding cash and cash equivalents, the Company had working capital deficit of $(3.5) million at June 30, 2000 compared to working capital deficit of $(3.3) million at December 31, 1999. Since the Company receives patent annuity payments and subscription payments in advance, the Company's existing operations are expected to maintain very low or negative working capital balances, excluding cash. Included in current liabilities at June 30, 2000 are obligations related to patent annuity payments and deferred subscription revenue of approximately $23.9 million. Cash generated by operating activities was $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, derived from net income of $3.7 million plus non-cash charges of $5.2 million less an increase in operating assets, net of liabilities of $1.0 million. This increase in net operating assets is primarily the result of an increase in patent annuity payments offset by the payment of income tax liabilities and the payment of expenses related to book publishing operations and the development of the trademark databases. Cash used in investing activities was $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 due to capital expenditures, including pre-publication costs, of $2.2 million and acquisition costs of $3.0 million. Excluding acquisitions of businesses and titles, the Company's existing operations are not capital intensive. -10- INFORMATION HOLDINGS INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued) Cash generated from financing activities was $156.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, and primarily related to net cash proceeds received from the issuance of common stock as a result of the Company's secondary stock offering of 4,500,000 shares at a price of $36.50 per share. See Note E - SECONDARY OFFERING. The Company has no outstanding debt obligations as of June 30, 2000 related to the new Credit Facility. The Company believes that funds generated from operations, together with cash on hand and borrowings available under its Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund the cash requirements of its existing operations for the foreseeable future. The Company currently has no commitments for material capital expenditures. For the year 2000, the Company expects to incur expenditures ranging between $5.0 million and $10.0 million in connection with the rollout of CorporateIntelligence.com. Actual expenditures may vary depending on the timing of the commercial rollout, the development and integration of the databases, the hiring of additional technical staff and market acceptance of this web site, as well as other factors. As of June 30, 2000 the Company has incurred $1.2 million of costs related to CorporateIntelligence.com. Future operating requirements and capital needs may be subject to economic conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control. SEASONALITY The Company's business is somewhat seasonal, with revenues typically reaching slightly higher levels during the third and fourth quarters of each calendar year, based on historical publication schedules. In 1999, 32% of the Company's revenues were generated during the fourth quarter with the first, second and third quarters accounting for 21%, 22% and 25% of revenues, respectively. In addition, the Company may experience fluctuation in revenues from period to period based on the timing of acquisitions and new product launches. EFFECTS OF INFLATION The Company believes that inflation has not had a material impact on the results of operations presented herein.
