PART I

Item 1. Description Of Business

General

     We are an integrated communications provider offering integrated communications and Internet connectivity to individuals, businesses, organizations, educational institutions and government agencies. Through our subsidiaries, we provide high quality, reliable and scalable Internet access, web hosting, and equipment co-location. Our overall strategy is to become the dominant integrated communications provider for residents and small to medium-sized businesses in Oklahoma.

     References to us in this Report include our subsidiaries: FullNet, Inc. (“FullNet”), FullTel, Inc. (“FullTel”), and FullWeb, Inc. (“FullWeb”). Our principal executive offices are located at 201 Robert S. Kerr Avenue, Suite 210, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102, and our telephone number is (405) 236-8200. We also maintain an Internet site on the World Wide Web (“WWW”) at www.fullnet.net. Information contained on our Web site is not, and should not be deemed to be, a part of this Report.

Company History

     We were founded in 1995 as CEN-COM of Oklahoma, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation, to bring dial-up Internet access and education to rural locations in Oklahoma that did not have dial-up Internet access. We changed our name to FullNet Communications, Inc. in December 1995, and shifted our focus from offering dial-up services to providing wholesale and private label network connectivity and related services to other Internet service providers. During 1995 and 1996, we furnished wholesale and private label network connectivity services to Internet service providers in Bartlesville, Cushing, Durant, Perry, Tahlequah, and Tulsa. During 1996, we sold our Internet service provider operations in Enid, Oklahoma and began Internet service provider operations in Ponca City, Oklahoma. In 1997 we continued our focus on being a backbone provider by upgrading and acquiring more equipment. We also started offering our own Internet service provider brand access and services to our wholesale customers.

     In 1998 our gross revenues exceeded $1,000,000 and we made the Metro Oklahoma City Top 50 Fastest Growing Companies list. In 1998 we commenced the process of organizing a competitive local exchange carrier (“CLEC”) through FullTel, and acquired Animus Communications, Inc. (“Animus”), a wholesale Web-service company, which enabled us to become a total solutions provider to individuals and companies seeking a “one-stop shop” in Oklahoma. Animus was renamed FullWeb in January 2000.

     With the incorporation of FullTel and the acquisition of FullWeb, our current business strategy is to become the dominant integrated communications provider in Oklahoma, focusing on rural areas. We expect to grow through the acquisition of additional customers for our carrier-neutral co-location space, the acquisition of Internet service providers, as well as through a FullNet brand marketing campaign. During 2000 and 2001, we completed eight separate acquisitions of Internet service provider companies, with customers in the Oklahoma cities of Tahlequah, Bartlesville, Enid, Nowata, Lawton, Oklahoma City, Adair, Jay, Pryor, Wyandotte, Leach, Colcord and Moseley.

     During the month of February 2000, our common stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol FULO. While our common stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board, it is very thinly traded, and there can be no assurance that our stockholders will be able to sell their shares should they so desire. Any market for the common stock that may develop, in all likelihood, will be a limited one, and if such a market does develop, the market price may be volatile.

     In June 2000, we began providing co-location services to KMC Telecom V, Inc. (“KMC”), a facilities-based competitive local exchange carrier pursuant to an agreement that ends on December 31, 2005. Under the terms of this agreement, we receive $42,275 per month to provide co-location and support services for KMC’s telecommunications equipment at our network operations center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. We completed our network operations center during the first quarter of 2001. KMC moved into our network operations center and began making payments during the third quarter of 2000. We plan to market additional carrier neutral co-location solutions in our network operations center to other competitive local exchange carriers, Internet service providers and web-hosting companies.

     Our co-location facility is carrier neutral, allowing customers to choose among competitive offerings rather than being restricted to one carrier. Our network operations center is Telco-grade and provides customers a high level of operative reliability and security. We offer flexible space arrangements for customers, 24-hour onsite support with both battery and generator backup.

Mergers and Acquisitions

     Our acquisition strategy is designed to leverage our existing network backbone and internal operations to enable us to enter new markets in Oklahoma, as well as to expand our presence in existing markets, and to benefit from economies of scale.

Our Business Strategy

     As an integrated communications provider, we intend to increase shareholder value by continuing to build scale through both acquisitions and internal growth and then leveraging increased revenues over our fixed costs base. Our strategy is to meet the customer service requirements of retail, business, educational and government Internet users in our target markets, while benefiting from the scale advantages obtained through being a fully integrated backbone and broadband provider. The key elements of our overall strategy with respect to our principal business operations are as follows:

Target Strategic Acquisitions

     The goal of our acquisition strategy is to accelerate market penetration by acquiring Internet service providers in Oklahoma communities and to acquire strategic Internet service providers in Oklahoma City and Tulsa. Additionally, we will continue to build upon our core competencies and expand our technical, customer service staff and sales force in Oklahoma communities. We evaluate acquisition candidates based on their compatibility with our overall business plan of penetrating rural and outlying markets as well as Oklahoma City and Tulsa. When a candidate is acquired, we will integrate our existing Internet, network connectivity and value-added services with the services offered by the acquired company and use either the local sales force or install our own dealer sales force to continue to increase market share. The types of acquisitions targeted by us include Internet service providers located in markets into which we want to expand or to which we may already provide “private-label” Internet connectivity. Other types of targeted acquisitions include local business-only Internet service providers in markets where we have established points of presence and would benefit from the acquired company’s local sale and network solutions sales and technical staff and installed customer base through the potential increase in our network utilization. When assessing an acquisition candidate, we focus on the following criteria:

  Potential revenue and subscriber growth;
 
  Low subscriber turnover or churn rates;
 
  Density in the market as defined by a high ratio of subscribers to points of presence (“POPs”);
 
  Favorable competitive environment;
 
  Low density network platforms that can be integrated readily into our backbone network; and
 
  Favorable consolidation savings.

Generate Internal Sales Growth

     We intend to expand our customer base by increasing our independent re-seller network as well as our marketing efforts. At December 31, 2003, our direct sales force consisted of one individual in our Oklahoma City office coordinating all our business-to-business solutions sales. We currently have one individual responsible statewide to manage the consumer Internet service provider market, with independent re-sellers responsible for their individual markets. Our sales force is supported in its efforts by technical engineers and, in some instances, our senior management. We intend to increase the size of our independent re-seller network to establish an effective selling presence in all major communities in Oklahoma. In addition, we are exploring other strategies to increase our sales, including other marketing partners such as electric cooperatives. We currently have one of the 20 local Oklahoma electric cooperatives as a marketing partner.

Grow Subscriber Base

     We intend to grow our subscriber base through a combination of internal and acquisition driven growth. We anticipate that this growth will increase the density of our subscriber base within a service area utilizing our available network operations, customer support, back office functions and management overhead without further cost increase or with minimal cost increase. We expect our local markets to generate internal subscriber growth primarily by enhancing subscribers’ online experience, providing a sense of a national presence while maintaining local community content and developing a consumer recognized regional FullNet brand.

Increase Rural Area Market Share

     We believe that the rural areas of Oklahoma are underserved by Internet service providers, and that significant profitable growth can be achieved in serving these markets by providing reliable Internet connectivity at a reasonable cost to the residents and businesses located in these areas. We believe we can obtain a significant Internet service provider and business-to-business market share in Oklahoma. To that end, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, FullTel, became a licensed competitive local

exchange carrier in Oklahoma. Since March 2003 when we installed our telephone switch, FullTel, as a competitive local exchange carrier, is able to provide local telephone numbers for Internet access.

Enhance Subscribers’ Online Experience

     We intend to maximize our subscriber retention and add new subscribers by enhancing our services in the following ways:

     • Ease of Use – During the first quarter of 2001, we implemented a common, easy to use CD ROM based software package that automatically configures all of the individual Internet access programs after a one time entry by the user of a few required fields of information such as, name, user name and password.

     • New Products and Services – Offer subscribers new products and services. We recently began offering call waiting modem on hold and Postini e-mail spam and virus protection.

Internet Access Services

     Our core business is the sale of Internet access services to individual and small business subscribers located in Oklahoma. Through FullNet, we provide our customers with a variety of dial-up and dedicated connectivity, as well as direct access to a wide range of Internet applications and resources, including electronic mail. FullNet’s full range of services includes:

  Private label retail and business direct dial-up connectivity to the Internet and
 
  Secure private networks through our backbone network

     Our branded and private label Internet access services are provided through a statewide network with points-of -presence in 178 communities throughout Oklahoma. Points-of-presence are local telephone numbers through which subscribers can access the Internet. Our business services consist of high-speed Internet access services and other services that enable wholesale customers to outsource their Internet and electronic commerce activities. We had approximately 2,700 subscribers at December 31, 2003. Additionally, FullNet sells Internet access to other Internet service providers, who then resell Internet access to their own customers under their private label or under the “FullNet” brand name.

     We intend to expand our subscriber base through a marketing campaign and through acquisitions. We are focusing our acquisition efforts on companies with forward-looking sales and marketing, high-quality customer service and a solid local market dominance. See “Item 1. Description of Business – Mergers and Acquisitions.” Additionally, we are expanding our independent re-seller network in an effort to increase our subscriber base in the markets in which we currently operate.

     Currently, we offer the following two types of Internet connections:

  Dial-Up Connections

     The simplest connection to the Internet is the dial-up account. This method of service connects the user to the Internet through the use of a modem and standard telephone line. Currently, FullNet users can connect via dial-up at speeds up to 56 Kbps. We support these users through the use of sophisticated modem banks located in our facility in Oklahoma City that send data through a router and out to the Internet. We support the higher speed 56K, V.92 MOH and Integrated Services Digital Network connections with state-of-the-art digital modems. With a dial-up connection, a user can gain access to the Internet for e-mail, the World Wide Web, file transfer protocol, news groups, and a variety of other useful applications.

  Leased Line Connections

     Many businesses and some individuals have a need for more bandwidth to the Internet to support a network of users or a busy Web site. We have the capacity to sell a leased line connection to users. This method of connection gives the user a full-time high-speed (up to 1.5 mbps) connection to the Internet. The leased line solution comes at greater expense to the user. These lines are leased through the telephone companies at a high installation and monthly fee.

     We believe that our Internet access services provide customers with the following benefits:

     Fast and Reliable Internet Access-We have implemented a network architecture providing exceptional quality and consistency in Internet services, making us the recognized backbone leader in the Oklahoma Internet service provider industry. We offer unlimited, unrestricted and reliable Internet access at a low monthly price. A user-to-modem ratio of approximately 7:1 assures access with minimal busy signals. Dial-up access is available for the following modem speeds: 14.4K, 28.8K, 33.6K, K56Flex, 56K V.90, v.92 MOH, ISDN 64K and ISDN 128K. Our dial-up access supports all major platforms and operating

systems, including MS Windows, UNIX®, Mac OS, OS/2 and LINUX. This allows simplified access to all Internet applications, including the World Wide Web, email, and news and file transfer protocol.

     Cost-Effective Access-We offer high quality Internet connectivity and enhanced business services at price points that are generally lower than those charged by other Internet service providers with national coverage. Additionally, we offer pre-bundled access services packages under monthly or prepaid plans.

     Superior Customer Support-We provide superior customer service and support, with customer care and technical personnel available by telephone and on-line 24 hours per day, 365 days per year.

CLEC Operations

     Through FullTel, our wholly owned subsidiary, we are a fully licensed competitive local exchange carrier or CLEC in Oklahoma. CLECs are new phone companies born out of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (Telecommunications Act), which requires the incumbent local exchange carriers or ILECs, such as the regional Bell companies, to provide CLECs access to their local facilities, and to compensate CLECs for traffic originated by ILECs and terminated on the CLECs network. By adding our own telephone switch and infrastructure to the existing telephone network in March 2003, we are now able to offer certain local services in most of Oklahoma, including local dial-up and digital subscriber lines for the Internet access services provided by us. As a CLEC, we may subscribe to and resell all forms of local telephone service in Oklahoma. We intend to build our own network infrastructure, which we believe will reduce our current reliance upon the infrastructures of the ILECs. We believe that our CLEC status, combined with the efficiencies inherent in operating our own network, should result in lower overhead costs and a more predictable infrastructure, both of which should be to the benefit of our customers.

     While Internet access is the core focus of growth for us, we plan to also provide traditional telephone service throughout Oklahoma.

     A core piece of our marketing strategy is the “cross pollination” between our Internet activities and FullTel’s local dial-up service. By organizing and funding FullTel, we expect to gain local dial-up Internet access to approximately 80% of Oklahoma. In return, FullTel will gain immediate access to our entire Internet service provider customer base.

     The FullTel data center telephone switching equipment was installed in March 2003. At which time, FullTel began the process of activating local access telephone numbers for every city in which we will market, sell and operate our retail FullNet Internet service provider brand, wholesale dial-up Internet service and our business-to-business network design, connectivity, domain and Web hosting businesses. At December 31, 2003 FullTel provided us with local telephone access in approximately 178 cities. However, our ability to fully take advantage of these opportunities will be dependent upon the availability of additional capital.

Sales and Marketing

     Although we expect that the bulk of our new subscribers will come through acquisition of Internet service providers, our expanded local sales system is also an integral part of our growth plan. We believe local sales and marketing will develop further recognition of our name brand that will lead to increased subscriber revenues.

     The 15 largest metropolitan areas in the United States comprise only 38% of the U.S. population, leaving the majority of the country’s population in hundreds of smaller markets as potential subscribers. More specifically, predominantly smaller metropolitan and rural markets may have penetration rates of 22% and lower, versus larger markets with penetration rates of around 40%. In addition, in many cases national providers are a long distance phone call in our markets. Finally, since there is not as much competition in the smaller metropolitan and rural markets, monthly churn rates are lower and word-of-mouth referrals are a significant generator of new subscribers. We believe that we have significant opportunities for acquisition and internal sales growth in these market areas.

     We focus on marketing our services to two distinct market segments: enterprises (primarily small and medium size businesses) and consumers. By attracting enterprise customers who use the network primarily during the daytime, and consumer customers who use the network primarily at night, we are able to utilize our network infrastructure more cost effectively.

Competition

     The market for Internet connectivity and related services is extremely competitive. We anticipate that competition will continue to intensify as the use of the Internet grows. The tremendous growth and potential market size of the Internet access market has attracted many new start-ups as well as existing businesses from a variety of industries. We believe that a reliable network, knowledgeable salespeople and the quality of technical support currently are the primary competitive factors in our targeted market and that price is usually secondary to these factors.

Table of Contents

     Our current and prospective competitors include, in addition to other national, regional and local Internet service providers, long distance and local exchange telecommunications companies, cable television, direct broadcast satellite, wireless communications providers and online service providers. While we believe that our network, products and customer service distinguish us from these competitors, most of these competitors have significantly greater market presence, brand recognition, financial, technical and personnel resources than us.

Internet Service Providers

     Our current primary competitors include other Internet service providers with a significant national presence that focuses on business customers, such as Cox Communications and SBC. These competitors have greater market share, brand recognition, financial, technical and personnel resources than us. We also compete with regional and local Internet service providers in our targeted markets.

Telecommunications Carriers

     The major long distance companies, also known as inter-exchange carriers, including AT&T, MCI WorldCom, and Sprint, offer Internet access services and compete with us. Reforms in the federal regulation of the telecommunications industry have created greater opportunities for ILECs, including the Regional Bell Operating Companies or RBOCs, and other competitive local exchange carriers, to enter the Internet connectivity market. In order to address the Internet connectivity requirements of the business customers of long distance and local carriers, we believe that there is a move toward horizontal integration by ILECs and CLECs through acquisitions or joint ventures with, and the wholesale purchase of, connectivity from Internet service providers. The MCI/WorldCom merger (and the prior WorldCom/MFS/UUNet consolidation), GTE’s acquisition of BBN, the acquisition by ICG Communications, Inc. of Netcom, Global Crossing’s acquisition of Frontier Corp. (and Frontier’s prior acquisition of Global Center) and AT&T’s purchase of IBM’s global communications network are indicative of this trend. Accordingly, we expect that we will experience increased competition from the traditional telecommunications carriers. These telecommunication carriers, in addition to their greater network coverage, market presence, financial, technical and personnel resources also have large existing commercial customer bases.

Cable Companies, Direct Broadcast Satellite and Wireless Communications Companies

     Many of the major cable companies are offering Internet connectivity, relying on the viability of cable modems and economical upgrades to their networks, including Media One and Time Warner Cablevision, Inc., Cox Communications and Tele-Communications, Inc. (“TCI”).

     The companies that own these broadband networks could prevent us from delivering Internet access through the wire and cable connections that they own. Our ability to compete with telephone and cable television companies that are able to support broadband transmissions, and to provide better Internet services and products, may depend on future regulation to guarantee open access to the broadband networks. However, in January 1999, the Federal Communications Commission declined to take any action to mandate or otherwise regulate access by Internet service providers to broadband cable facilities at this time. It is unclear whether and to what extent local and state regulatory agencies will take any initiatives to implement this type of regulation, and whether they will be successful in establishing their authority to do so. Similarly, the Federal Communications Commission is considering proposals that could limit the right of Internet service providers to connect with their customers over broadband local telephone lines. In addition to competing directly in the Internet service provider market, both cable and television facilities operators are also aligning themselves with certain Internet service providers who would receive preferential or exclusive use of broadband local connections to end users. If high-speed, broadband facilities increasingly become the preferred mode by which customers access the Internet and we are unable to gain access to these facilities on reasonable terms, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Online Service Providers

     The dominant online service providers, including Microsoft Network, America Online, Incorporated and Earthlink, have all entered the Internet access business by engineering their current proprietary networks to include Internet access capabilities. We compete to a lesser extent with these service providers, which currently are primarily focused on the consumer marketplace and offer their own content, including chat rooms, news updates, searchable reference databases, special interest groups and shopping.

     However, America Online’s merger with Time-Warner, its acquisition of Netscape Communications Corporation and related strategic alliance with Sun Microsystems enable it to offer a broader array of Internet -based services and products that could significantly enhance its ability to appeal to the business marketplace and, as a result, compete more directly with Internet service providers like us. CompuServe has also announced that it will target Internet connectivity for the small to medium sized business market.

Table of Contents

     We believe that our ability to attract business customers and to market value-added services is a key to our future success. However, there can be no assurance that our competitors will not introduce comparable services or products at similar or more attractive prices in the future or that we will not be required to reduce our prices to match competition. Recently, many competitive ISPs have shifted their focus from individual customers to business customers.

     Moreover, there can be no assurance that more of our competitors will not shift their focus to attracting business customers, resulting in even more competition for us. There can be no assurance that we will be able to offset the effects of any such competition or resulting price reductions. Increased competition could result in erosion of our market share and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Government Regulations

     The following summary of regulatory developments and legislation is not complete. It does not describe all present and proposed federal, state, and local regulation and legislation affecting the Internet service provider and telecommunications industries. Existing federal and state regulations are currently subject to judicial proceedings, legislative hearings, and administrative proposals that could change, in varying degrees, the manner in which our businesses operate. We cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings or their impact upon the Internet service provider and telecommunications industries or upon our business.

     Both the provision of Internet access service and the provision of underlying telecommunications services are affected by federal, state, local and foreign regulation. The Federal Communications Commission or FCC exercises jurisdiction over all facilities of, and services offered by, telecommunications carriers to the extent that they involve the provision, origination or termination of jurisdictionally interstate or international communications. The state regulatory commissions retain jurisdiction over the same facilities and services to the extent they involve origination or termination of jurisdictionally intrastate communications. In addition, as a result of the passage of the Telecommunications Act, state and federal regulators share responsibility for implementing and enforcing the domestic pro-competitive policies of the Telecommunications Act. In particular, state regulatory commissions have substantial oversight over the provision of interconnection and non-discriminatory network access by ILECs. Municipal authorities generally have some jurisdiction over access to rights of way, franchises, zoning and other matters of local concern.

     Our Internet operations are not currently subject to direct regulation by the FCC or any other U.S. governmental agency, other than regulations applicable to businesses generally. However, the FCC continues to review its regulatory position on the usage of the basic network and communications facilities by Internet service providers. Although in an April 1998 Report, the FCC determined that Internet service providers should not be treated as telecommunications carriers and therefore should not be regulated, it is expected that future Internet service provider regulatory status will continue to be uncertain. Indeed, in that report, the FCC concluded that certain services offered over the Internet, such as phone-to-phone Internet telephony, may be functionally indistinguishable from traditional telecommunications service offerings, and their non-regulated status may have to be re-examined.

     Changes in the regulatory structure and environment affecting the Internet access market, including regulatory changes that directly or indirectly affect telecommunications costs or increase the likelihood of competition from RBOCs or other telecommunications companies, could have an adverse effect on our business. Although the FCC has decided not to allow local telephone companies to impose per-minute access charges on Internet service providers, and the reviewing court has upheld that decision, further regulatory and legislative consideration of this issue is likely. In addition, some telephone companies are seeking relief through state regulatory agencies. The imposition of access charges would affect our costs of serving dial-up customers and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

     In addition to our Internet service provider operations, we have recently focused attention on acquiring telecommunications assets and facilities, which is a regulated activity. Fulltel, our wholly owned subsidiary, has received competitive local exchange carrier or CLEC certification in Oklahoma, and an important part of our growth strategy is obtaining CLEC certification in certain other states. The Telecommunications Act requires CLECs not to prohibit or unduly restrict resale of their services; to provide dialing parity, number portability, and nondiscriminatory access to telephone numbers, operator services, directory assistance, and directory listings; to afford access to poles, ducts, conduits, and rights-of-way; and to establish reciprocal compensation arrangements for the transport and termination of telecommunications traffic. In addition to federal regulation of CLECs, the states also impose regulatory obligations upon CLECs. While these obligations vary from state to state, most states require CLECs to file a tariff for their services and charges; require CLECs to charge just and reasonable rates for their services, and not to discriminate among similarly-situated customers; to file periodic reports and pay certain fees; and to comply with certain services standards and consumer protection laws. As a provider of domestic basic telecommunications services, particularly competitive local exchange services, we could become subject to further regulation by the FCC and/or another regulatory agency, including state and local entities.

Table of Contents

     The Telecommunications Act has caused fundamental changes in the markets for local exchange services. In particular, the Telecommunications Act and the FCC rules issued pursuant to it mandate competition in local markets and require that ILECs interconnect with CLECs. Under the provisions of the Telecommunications Act, the FCC and state public utility commissions share jurisdiction over the implementation of local competition: the FCC was required to promulgate general rules and the state commissions were required to arbitrate and approve individual interconnection agreements. The courts have generally upheld the FCC in its promulgation of rules, including a January 25, 1999 U.S. Supreme Court ruling which determined that the FCC has jurisdiction to promulgate national rules in pricing for interconnection.

     In July 2000, the Eighth Circuit Court issued a decision on the earlier remand from the Supreme Court and rejected, as contrary to the 96 Act, the use of hypothetical network costs, including total element long-run incremental costs methodology (“TELRIC”), which the FCC had used in developing certain of its pricing rules. The Eighth Circuit Court also vacated the FCC’s pricing rules related to UNEs, termination and transport, but upheld its prior decision that ILECs’ universal service subsidies should not be included in the costs of providing network elements. Finally, the Eighth Circuit Court also vacated the FCC’s rules requiring that: (1) ILECs recombine unbundled network elements for competitors in any technically feasible combination; (2) all preexisting interconnection agreements be submitted to the states for review; and (3) the burden of proof for retention of a rural exemption be shifted to the ILEC. The FCC sought review of the Eighth Circuit Court’s invalidation of TELRIC and was granted certiorari. On May 13, 2002, the Supreme Court reversed certain of the Eighth Circuit Court’s findings and affirmed that the FCC’s rules concerning forward looking economic costs, including TELRIC, were proper under the 96 Act. The Supreme Court also restored the FCC’s requirement that the ILEC’s combine UNEs for competitors when they are unable to do so themselves.

     In November 1999, the FCC released an order making unbundling requirements applicable to all ILEC network elements uniformly. UNE-P is created when a competing carrier obtains all the network elements needed to provide service from the ILEC. In December 1999, the FCC released an order requiring the provision of unbundled local copper loops enabling CLECs to offer competitive Digital Subscriber Loop Internet access. The FCC reconsidered both orders in its first triennial review of its policies on UNEs completed in early 2003, as further discussed below.

     On August 21, 2003, the FCC released the text of its Triennial Review Order. In response to the remand of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia circuit, the FCC adopted new rules governing the obligations of ILECs to unbundle the elements of their local networks for use by competitors. The FCC made national findings of impairment or non-impairment for loops, transport and, most significantly, switching. The FCC delegated to the states the authority to engage in additional fact finding and make alternative impairment findings based on a more granular impairment analysis including evaluation of applicability of FCC-established “triggers.” The FCC created “mass market” and “enterprise market” customer classifications that generally correspond to the residential and business markets, respectively. The FCC found that CLECs were not impaired without access to local circuit switching when serving “enterprise market” customers on a national level. CLECs, however, were found to be impaired on a national level without access to local switching when serving “mass market” customers. State commissions had 90 days to ask the FCC to waive the finding of no impairment without switching for “enterprise market” customers. The FCC presumption that CLECs are impaired without access to transport, high capacity loops and “mass market” switching is subject to a more granular nine month review by state commissions pursuant to FCC- established triggers and other economic and operational criteria.

     The FCC also opened a further notice of proposed rulemaking to consider the “pick and choose” rules under which a competing carrier may select from among the various terms of interconnection offered by an ILEC in its various interconnection agreements. Comments have been filed, but the FCC has not issued a decision.

     The Triennial Review Order also provided that:

  ILECs are not required to unbundle packet switching as a stand-alone network element.

•     Two key components of the FCC’s TELRIC pricing rules were clarified. First, the FCC clarified that the risk-adjusted cost of capital used in calculating UNE prices should reflect the risks associated with a competitive market. Second, the FCC declined to mandate the use of any particular set of asset lives for depreciation, but clarified that the use of an accelerated depreciation mechanism may present a more accurate method of calculating economic depreciation.

•     CLECs continue to be prohibited from avoiding any liability under contractual early termination clauses in the event a CLEC converts a special access circuit to an UNE.

     We are monitoring the Oklahoma state commission proceedings and participating where necessary as the commission undertakes the 90 day and nine month analyses to establish rules or make determinations as directed by the Triennial Review Order. In addition, numerous petitions and appeals have been filed in the courts and with the FCC challenging many of the findings in the Triennial Review Order and seeking a stay on certain portions of the order. The appeals have been consolidated in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. Oral arguments were heard on January 28, 2004. On March 2, 2004, a three-judge panel in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the FCC’s Triennial Review Order with regard to network unbundling rules. A majority

of the FCC Commissioners is seeking a court-ordered stay and plan to appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court. Until all of these proceedings are concluded, the impact of this order, if any, on our CLEC operations cannot be determined.

     An important issue for CLECs is the right to receive reciprocal compensation for the transport and termination of Internet traffic. We believe that, under the Telecommunications Act, CLECs are entitled to receive reciprocal compensation from ILECs. However, some ILECs have disputed payment of reciprocal compensation for Internet traffic, arguing that Internet service provider traffic is not local traffic. Most states have required ILECs to pay CLECs reciprocal compensation. However, in October 1998, the FCC determined that dedicated digital subscriber line service is an interstate service and properly tariffed at the interstate level. In February 1999, the FCC concluded that at least a substantial portion of dial-up Internet service provider traffic is jurisdictionally interstate. The FCC also concluded that its jurisdictional decision does not alter the exemption from access charges currently enjoyed by Internet service providers. The FCC established a proceeding to consider an appropriate compensation mechanism for interstate Internet traffic. Pending the adoption of that mechanism, the FCC saw no reason to interfere with existing interconnection agreements and reciprocal compensation arrangements. The FCC order has been appealed. In addition, there is a risk that state public utility commissions that have previously considered this issue and ordered the payment of reciprocal compensation by the ILECs to the CLECs may be asked by the ILECs to revisit their determinations, or may revisit their determinations on their own motion. To date, at least one ILEC has filed suit seeking a refund from a carrier of reciprocal compensation that the ILEC had paid to that carrier. There can be no assurance that any future court, state regulatory or FCC decision on this matter will favor our position. An unfavorable result may have an adverse impact on our potential future revenues as a CLEC. At the present time, we are reviewing this matter with outside counsel to determine the availability, if any, of reciprocal compensation to us as well as the cost of billing for it and collecting it.

     As we become a competitor in local exchange markets, we will become subject to state requirements regarding provision of intrastate services. This may include the filing of tariffs containing rates and conditions. As a new entrant, without market power, we expect to face a relatively flexible regulatory environment. Nevertheless, it is possible that some states could require us to obtain the approval of the public utilities commission for the issuance of debt or equity or other transactions which would result in a lien on our property used to provide intrastate services.

Additional Factors to Consider

     This Report includes “forward looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in such forward looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our forward looking statements are set forth below and elsewhere in this Annual Report. All forward looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth below.

     Limited Operating History. We have a relatively limited operating history upon which an evaluation of our prospects can be made. Consequently, the likelihood of our success must be considered in view of all of the risks, expenses and delays inherent in the establishment and growth of a new business including, but not limited to, expenses, complications and delays which cannot be foreseen when a business is commenced, initiation of marketing activities, the uncertainty of market acceptance of new services, intense competition from larger more established competitors and other factors. Our ability to achieve profitability and growth will depend on successful development and commercialization of our current and proposed services. No assurance can be given that we will be able to introduce our proposed services or market our services on a commercially successful basis.

     Necessity of Additional Financing. In order for us to have any opportunity for significant commercial success and profitability, we must successfully obtain additional financing, either through borrowings, additional private placements or an initial public offering, or some combination thereof. Although we are actively pursuing a variety of funding sources, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in such pursuit.

     Limited Marketing Experience. We have limited experience in developing and commercializing new services based on innovative technologies, and there is limited information available concerning the potential performance of our hardware or market acceptance of our proposed services. There can be no assurance that unanticipated expenses, problems or technical difficulties will not occur which would result in material delays in product commercialization or that our efforts will result in successful product commercialization.

     Uncertainty of Products/Services Development. Although considerable time and financial resources were expended in the development of our services and products, there can be absolutely no assurance that problems will not develop which would have a material adverse effect on us. We will be required to commit considerable time, effort and resources to finalize such development and adapt our products/services to satisfy specific requirements of potential customers. Continued system refinement, enhancement and development efforts are subject to all of the risks inherent in the development of new products/services and technologies, including unanticipated delays, expenses, technical problems or difficulties, as well as the possible insufficiency of funds to satisfactorily complete development, which could result in abandonment or substantial change in

11


Table of Contents

commercialization. There can be no assurance that development efforts will be successfully completed on a timely basis, or at all, that we will be able to successfully adapt our hardware and/or software to satisfy specific requirements of potential customers, or that unanticipated events will not occur which would result in increased costs or material delays in development or commercialization. In addition, technologies as complex as those planned to be incorporated into our products/services may contain errors which become apparent subsequent to commercial use. Remedying such errors could delay our plans and cause us to incur substantial additional costs.

     New Concept; Uncertainty of Market Acceptance and Commercialization Strategy. As is typical in the case of a new business concept, demand and market acceptance for a newly introduced product/service is subject to a high level of uncertainty. Achieving market acceptance for this new concept will require significant efforts and expenditures by us to create awareness and demand by consumers. Our marketing strategy and preliminary and future marketing plans may be unsuccessful and are subject to change as a result of a number of factors, including progress or delays in our marketing efforts, changes in market conditions (including the emergence of potentially significant related market segments for applications of our technology), the nature of possible license and distribution arrangements which may or may not become available to us in the future and economic, regulatory and competitive factors. There can be no assurance that our strategy will result in successful product commercialization or that our efforts will result in initial or continued market acceptance for our proposed products.

     Competition; Technological Obsolescence. The markets that we intend to enter are characterized by intense competition and an increasing number of potential new market entrants who have developed or are developing potentially competitive products and/or services. We will face competition from numerous sources, certain of which may have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing, distribution, personnel and other resources than us, permitting such companies to implement extensive marketing campaigns, both generally and in response to efforts by additional competitors to enter into new markets and market new products and services. In addition, the markets for our proposed products/services are characterized by rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards that could result in product obsolescence or short product life cycles. Accordingly, our ability to compete will be dependent upon our ability to complete the development of our products and to introduce our products and/or services into the marketplace in a timely manner, to continually enhance and improve our software and to successfully develop and market new products. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully, that competitors will not develop technologies or products that render our products and/or services obsolete or less marketable or that we will be able to successfully enhance our products or develop new products and/or services.

     Risks Relating to the Internet. Businesses reliant on the Internet may be at risk due to inadequate development of the necessary infrastructure, such as reliable network backbones, or complementary services, such as high-speed modems and security procedures. The Internet has experienced, and is expected to continue to experience, significant growth in the number of users and amount of traffic. There can be no assurance that the Internet infrastructure will continue to be able to support the demands placed on it by sustained growth. In addition, there may be delays in the development and adoption of new standards and protocols, the inability to handle increased levels of Internet activity or due to increased government regulation. If the necessary Internet infrastructure or complementary services are not developed to effectively support growth that may occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially adversely affected.

     Potential Government Regulations. We are subject to state commission, Federal Communications Commission and court decisions as they relate to the interpretation and implementation of the Telecommunications Act, the interpretation of Competitive Local Exchange Carrier interconnection agreements in general and our interconnection agreements in particular. In some cases, we may become bound by the results of ongoing proceedings of these bodies or the legal outcomes of other contested interconnection agreements that are similar to agreements to which we are a party. The results of any of these proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

     Dependence on Key Personnel. Our success depends in large part upon the continued successful performance of our current executive officers and key employees, Messrs. Timothy J. Kilkenny, Roger P. Baresel and Jason Ayers, for our continued research, development, marketing and operation. Although we have employed, and will employ in the future, additional qualified employees as well as retaining consultants having significant experience, if Messrs. Kilkenny, Baresel or Ayers fail to perform any of their duties for any reason whatsoever, our ability to market, operate and support our products/services will be adversely affected. While we are located in areas where the available pool of people is substantial, there is also significant competition for qualified personnel.

     Limited Public Market. During February 2000, our common stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol FULO. While our common stock continues to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board, there can be no assurance that our stockholders will be able to sell their             shares should they so desire. Any market for the common stock that may develop, in all likelihood, will be a limited one, and if such a market does develop, the market price may be volatile.

     No Payment of Dividends on Common Stock. We have not paid any dividends on our common stock. For the foreseeable future, we anticipate that all earnings, if any, which may be generated from our operations, will be used to finance our growth and that cash dividends will not be paid to holders of the common stock.

     Penny Stock Regulation. Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the SEC. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and, if the broker dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally, those persons with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse), must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. Consequently, these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security that is or becomes subject to the penny stock rules. Our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules at the present time, and consequently our stockholders will find it more difficult to sell their shares.

Customers

     In 2003 and 2002, we had one customer that represented 33% and 27%, respectively, of our gross revenues. In June 2000, pursuant to an agreement that ends on December 31, 2005, we began providing co-location services to KMC Telecom V, Inc. (“KMC”), a facilities-based competitive local exchange carrier. Under the terms of this agreement, we receive $42,275 per month to provide co-location and support services for KMC’s telecommunications equipment at our network operations center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. KMC moved into our network operations center and began making payments during the third quarter of 2000.

Employees

     As of December 31, 2003, we had 15 employees employed in engineering, sales, marketing, customer support and related activities and general and administrative functions. None of our employees are represented by a labor union, and we consider our relations with our employees to be good. We also engage consultants from time to time with respect to various aspects of our business.

Item 2. Description of Property

     We maintain our executive office in approximately 13,000 square feet at 201 Robert S. Kerr Avenue, suite 210 in Oklahoma City, at an effective annual rental rate of $10.20 per square foot. These premises are occupied pursuant to a ten-year lease that expires December 31, 2009.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

     We are not currently engaged in any material legal proceedings. We are, however, subject to state commission, FCC and court decisions as they relate to the interpretation and implementation of the Telecommunications Act, the interpretation of CLEC interconnection agreements in general and our interconnection agreements in particular. In some cases, we may be bound by the results of ongoing proceedings of these bodies or the legal outcomes of other contested interconnection agreements that are similar to agreements to which we are a party. The results of any of these proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

     No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this Report.

     The number of beneficial holders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on March 25, 2004 was approximately 113.

Dividend Policy

     To date, we have declared no cash dividends on our common stock, and do not expect to pay cash dividends in the near term. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, to provide funds for operations and the continued expansion of our business.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

     During December 2003, we issued 50,000 shares of common stock as a result of the exercise of an option at a price of $.04 per share. This offering was pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.

     On January 1, 2002, we agreed to issue 11,815 shares of common stock in payment of $11,815 accrued interest on a portion of our convertible promissory notes. This offering was pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.

     During September 2002, we received $5,000 from the issuance of a five-year 8% convertible note payable. This note is convertible into our common stock at the election of the holder, at a conversion rate of $.15 per share, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. This offering was pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.

     During December 2002, we agreed to issue 1,500 shares of common stock in settlement of a note payable. This offering was pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.

     With respect to each of the foregoing common stock and warrant sale transactions, we relied on Sections 4(2) and 3(b) of the Securities Act of 1933 and applicable registration exemptions of Rules 504 and 506 of Regulation D and applicable state securities laws.

Overview

     We are an integrated communications provider offering integrated communications and Internet connectivity to individuals, businesses, organizations, educational institutions and government agencies. Through our subsidiaries, we provide high quality, reliable and scalable Internet access, web hosting, and equipment co-location.

     Our overall goal is to become the dominant integrated communications provider for residents and small to medium-sized businesses in Oklahoma. We believe that the rural areas of Oklahoma are underserved by Internet service providers, and that significant profitable growth can be achieved in serving these markets by providing reliable Internet connectivity and value-added services at a reasonable cost to the residents and businesses located in these areas. We believe we can obtain a significant Internet service provider and business-to-business market share in Oklahoma. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, FullTel, is a licensed competitive local exchange carrier in Oklahoma. FullTel, as a competitive local exchange carrier, is able to provide local telephone numbers for Internet access.

     The market for Internet connectivity and related services is extremely competitive. We anticipate that competition will continue to intensify. The tremendous growth and potential market size of the Internet access market has attracted many new start-ups as well as existing businesses from a variety of industries. We believe that a reliable network, knowledgeable salespeople and the quality of technical support currently are the primary competitive factors in our targeted market and that price is usually secondary to these factors.

Year Ended December 31, 2003 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2002

Revenues

     Access service revenues decreased $430,930 or 30.3% to $990,769 for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $1,421,699 for the year 2002. This decrease was primarily due to a net reduction in the number of customers, including the sale of approximately 160 and 400 customers, respectively, during 2003 and 2002. Historically we had been making an estimate regarding a portion of the classification between access service revenues and co-location and other revenues. During September 2003 we completed an improvement in our accounting system that allows us to more accurately classify our revenue between the two categories. This resulted in a cumulative adjustment to correct our year-to-date classification of approximately $36,000 which increased co-location and other revenue and decreased access service revenue for the year 2003 and approximately $26,000 which increased access service revenue and decreased co-location and other revenue during the year 2002.

Table of Contents

     Co-location and other revenues increased $127,796 or 12.7% to $1,131,113 for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $1,003,317 for the year 2002. This net increase was primarily attributable to selling additional services to existing customers and the addition of one large co-location customer during the second quarter of 2002 and one large co-location customer during the third quarter of 2003.

Operating Costs and Expenses

     Cost of access service revenues decreased $316,289 or 37.9% to $518,049 for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $834,338 for the year 2002. This decrease was primarily due to the restructuring of our network in order to operate in a more cost effective manner. During the year ended December 31, 2003 we received approximately $76,000 in back billings from SBC. We are in the process of reviewing these bills and at December 31, 2003 we had paid approximately $10,000, received credit from SBC of approximately $14,000 and accrued the balance of approximately $52,000.

     Cost of co-location and other revenues increased $11,543 or 11.7% to $109,914 for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $98,371 for the year 2002. This increase was primarily due to an increase in cost of equipment related to co-location services.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $174,922 or 13.3% to $1,140,905 for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $1,315,827 for the year 2002. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in employee costs. Employee costs decreased $160,972 for the year ended December 31, 2003 from the year 2002. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the number of employees from 19 at December 31, 2002 to 15 at December 31, 2003 and a decrease in wage rates. In addition, our five most highly compensated officers have voluntarily agreed to defer a portion of their compensation. For the years ending December 31, 2003 and 2002 the amounts deferred totaled $52,790 and $57,346, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 53.8% during 2003 from 54.3% during 2002.

     During the year ended December 31, 2003, we recorded a gain on sale of assets of $30,218 primarily attributable to the sale of a block of customers that were located in an area outside our primary geographic service area. During the same period in 2002 we recorded a gain on sale of assets of $33,827 primarily attributable to the sale of customers in certain cities based upon our determination that it was no longer cost effective for us to provide access services to those cities.

     Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $193,387 or 29.3% to $467,483 for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $660,870 for the prior year. In January 2002, upon initially applying SFAS 142 we reassessed useful lives of our acquired customer bases and we began amortizing these intangible assets over their estimated useful lives and in direct relation to any decreases in the acquired customer bases. Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 relating to intangible assets was $236,791 and $448,579, respectively, of which $101,033 and $312,821, respectively, was related to decreases in the number of acquired customers.

Interest Expense

     Interest expense increased $221,940 or 59.6% to $594,357 for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $372,417 for the year 2002. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in amortization of the discount on our convertible promissory notes. Pursuant to the provisions of the convertible promissory notes, the conversion price decreased from $.63 at December 31, 2002 to $.49 at December 31, 2003. Reductions in conversion price are recognized as an interest expense at the date of reduction by an increase to additional paid-in capital and an increase in the discount on the convertible promissory notes. In 2003 and 2002, $360,139 and $125,696, respectively, of our interest expense was related to the decrease in the conversion price. The majority of these convertible promissory notes matured in 2003, therefore no additional interest from these conversion prices will be recognized.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As of December 31, 2003, we had $11,480 in cash and $2,401,373 in current liabilities, including $171,876 of deferred revenues that will not require settlement in cash.

     At December 31, 2003, we had a deficit working capital of $2,300,200, while at December 31, 2002 we had a deficit working capital of $1,929,308. We do not have a line of credit or credit facility to serve as an additional source of liquidity. Historically we have relied on shareholder loans as an additional source of funds.

     As of December 31, 2003, $428,787 of the $464,903 we owed to our trade creditors was past due. We have no formal agreements regarding payment of these amounts. At December 31, 2003, we had outstanding principal and interest owed on matured notes totaling $1,128,025. We have not made payment or negotiated an extension of the notes and the lenders have not

made any demands. We are currently developing a plan to satisfy these notes which will be subject to the approval of each individual note holder.

                 
    For the Years Ended December 31,
    2003
  2002
Net cash flows provided by operations
  $ 209,413     $ 57,761  
Net cash flows provided by investing activities
    12,103       87,726  
Net cash flows used in financing activities
    (236,991 )     (172,107 )

     Net cash provided by investing activities was $12,103 and $87,726, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. Cash provided during 2003 of $57,262 was primarily related to the sale of a block of our access service revenue business that was located in a part of Oklahoma that was outside our primarily geographic area of focus and was offset by $45,159 cash used for the purchases of equipment. The cash provided during 2002 was primarily related to the sale of excess equipment and the sale of customer bases in certain cities based upon our determination that it was no longer cost effective for us to provide access services to those cities.

     Cash used for principal payments on notes payable and capital lease obligations was $236,991 and $177,107, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002.

     The planned expansion of our business will require significant capital to fund capital expenditures, working capital needs, debt service and the cash flow deficits generated by operating losses. Our principal capital expenditure requirements will include:

  mergers and acquisitions and
 
  further development of operations support systems and other automated back office systems

     Because our cost of developing new networks and services, funding other strategic initiatives, and operating our business depend on a variety of factors (including, among other things, the number of subscribers and the service for which they subscribe, the nature and penetration of services that may be offered by us, regulatory changes, and actions taken by competitors in response to our strategic initiatives), it is almost certain that actual costs and revenues will materially vary from expected amounts and these variations are likely to increase our future capital requirements. Our cash balances on March 26, 2004 will not be sufficient to fund our current business plan beyond a few months. As a consequence, we are currently focusing on revenue enhancement and cost cutting opportunities as well as working to sell non-core assets and to extend vendor payment terms. We continue to seek additional convertible debt or equity financing as well as the placement of a credit facility to fund our liquidity needs. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional capital on satisfactory terms or at all.

     In the event that we are unable to obtain additional capital or to obtain it on acceptable terms or in sufficient amounts, we will be required to delay the development of our network or take other actions. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition and our ability to achieve sufficient cash flows to service debt requirements.

     Our ability to fund the capital expenditures and other costs contemplated by our business plan and to make scheduled payments with respect to bank borrowings will depend upon, among other things, our ability to seek and obtain additional financing in the near term. Capital will be needed in order to implement our business plan, deploy our network, expand our operations and obtain and retain a significant number of customers in our target markets. Each of these factors is, to a large extent, subject to economic, financial, competitive, political, regulatory, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

     There is no assurance that we will be successful in developing and maintaining a level of cash flows from operations sufficient to permit payment of our outstanding indebtedness. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to service our indebtedness, we will be required to modify our growth plans, limit our capital expenditures, restructure or refinance our indebtedness or seek additional capital or liquidate our assets. There is no assurance that (i) any of these strategies could be effectuated on satisfactory terms, if at all, or on a timely basis or (ii) any of these strategies will yield sufficient proceeds to service our debt or otherwise adequately fund operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

     The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. In applying our accounting principles, we must often make individual estimates and assumptions regarding expected outcomes or uncertainties. As you might expect, the actual results or outcomes are generally different than the estimated or assumed amounts. These differences are usually minor and are included in our consolidated financial statements as soon as they are known. Our estimates, judgments and assumptions are continually evaluated based on available information and experience. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.

17


Table of Contents

     We periodically review the carrying value of our intangible assets when events and circumstances warrant such a review. One of the methods used for this review is performed using estimates of future cash flows. If the carrying value of our intangible assets is considered impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the intangible assets exceeds its fair value. We believe that the estimates of future cash flows and fair value are reasonable. Changes in estimates of such cash flows and fair value, however, could affect the calculation and result in additional impairment charges in future periods.

Certain Accounting Matters

     During April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 149 - “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, except as stated below and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. In addition, except as stated below, all provisions of this Statement should be applied prospectively. The provisions of this Statement that relate to Statement 133 Implementation Issues that have been effective for fiscal quarters that began prior to June 15, 2003, should continue to be applied in accordance with their respective effective dates. In addition, paragraphs 7(a) and 23(a), which relate to forward purchases or sales of when-issued securities or other securities that do not yet exist, should be applied to both existing contracts and new contracts entered into after June 30, 2003. We do not participate in such transactions, however, we are evaluating the effect of this new pronouncement, if any, and will adopt FASB 149 within the prescribed time.

     During May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 150 - “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity”, effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. This Statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a freestanding financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. Some of the provisions of this Statement are consistent with the current definition of liabilities in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statements. We are evaluating the effect of this new pronouncement and will adopt FASB 150 within the prescribed time.

     During October 2003, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FIN 46 deferring the effective date for applying the provisions of FIN 46 until the end of the first interim or annual period ending after December 31, 2003 if the variable interest was created prior to February 1, 2003 and the public entity has not issued financial statements reporting that variable interest entity in accordance with FIN 46. The FASB also indicated it would be issuing a modification to FIN 46 prior to the end of 2003. Accordingly, we have deferred the adoption of FIN 46 with respect to VIEs created prior to February 1, 2003. We are currently assessing the impact, if any, FIN 46 may have on us; however, we do not believe there will be any material impact on our consolidated financial statements, results of operations or liquidity resulting from the adoption of this interpretation.

Item 7. Financial Statements

     Our financial statements, prepared in accordance with Regulation S-B, are set forth in this Report beginning on page F-1.

Item 8. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

     On January 30, 2004, we engaged EVANS, GAITHER & ASSOCIATES, PLLC as our new independent accountants, commencing with the audit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, and thereby dismissed Buxton & Cloud PC. The decision to change independent accountants was approved by our Board of Directors. All material correcting adjustments that were identified by EVANS, GAITHER & ASSOCIATES, PLLC, our independent public accountants, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission were made and are reflected in the audited financial statements included in this Report.

     The report of Buxton & Cloud PC on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting principle. The report of Buxton & Cloud PC on our financial statements for the past year ended December 31, 2002 did however contain explanatory paragraphs describing an uncertainty about our ability to continue as a going concern.

     In connection with the audit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 and all interim periods preceding the dismissal, there have been no disagreements with Buxton & Cloud PC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Buxton & Cloud PC, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements for such year.

Table of Contents

     During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 and all subsequent interim periods and to January 30, 2004, the date of dismissal, there have been no reportable events (as defined in Regulation S-B Item 304(a)(1)(v)).

     During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 and all subsequent interim periods and to January 30, 2004, we did not consult with EVANS, GAITHER & ASSOCIATES, PLLC on any items concerning the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, or the subject matter of a disagreement or reportable event with the former auditor (as described in Regulation S-B Item 304(a)(2)).

PART III.

Item 9. Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons, Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

     The following information is furnished as of March 25, 2004 for each person who serves on our Board of Directors or serves as one of our executive officers. Our Board of Directors currently consists of two members, although we intend to increase the size of the Board in the future. The directors serve one-year terms until their successors are elected. Our executive officers are elected annually by our Board. The executive officers serve terms of one year or until their death, resignation or removal by our Board. There are no family relationships between our directors and executive officers. In addition, there was no arrangement or understanding between any executive officer and any other person pursuant to which any person was selected as an executive officer.

     Timothy J. Kilkenny has served as our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors since our inception in May 1995. Prior to that time, he spent 14 years in the financial planning business as a manager for both MetLife and Prudential. Mr. Kilkenny is a graduate of Central Bible College in Springfield, Missouri.

     Roger P. Baresel became one of our directors and our Chief Financial Officer on November 9, 2000, and our President on October 13, 2003. Mr. Baresel is an accomplished senior executive and consultant who has served at a variety of companies. While serving as President and CFO of Advantage Marketing Systems, Inc., a publicly-held company engaged in the multi-level marketing of healthcare and dietary supplements, from June 1995 to May 2000, annual sales increased from $2.5 million to in excess of $22.4 million and annual earnings increased from $80,000 to more than $l.2 million. Also, during this period Advantage successfully completed two public offerings, four major acquisitions and its stock moved from the over the counter bulletin board to the American Stock Exchange. Mr. Baresel has the following degrees from Central State University in Edmond, Oklahoma: BA Psychology, BS Accounting and MBA Finance, in which he graduated Summa Cum Laude. Mr. Baresel is also a certified public accountant.

     Jason C. Ayers has been our Vice President of Operations since December 8, 2000 and prior to that served as President of Animus, a privately-held web hosting company which we acquired on April 1, 1998. Mr. Ayers received a BS degree from Southern Nazarene University in Bethany, Oklahoma in May 1996 with a triple major in Computer Science, Math and Physics. Upon graduating, he was a co-founder of Animus.

     Theodore S. Williams has been our Vice President of Authorized Agent Sales since June 2003. Prior to that he spent over five years in the wireless industry as Account Manager for both AT&T and Sprint and one year with American Staffcorp as Director of Marketing and Sales.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

     Because our board of directors only consists of two directors, each of whom does not qualify as an independent director; our board performs the functions of an audit committee. Our board of directors has determined that Roger P. Baresel, our President and Chief Financial Officer qualifies as a “financial expert.” This determination was based upon Mr. Baresel’s

•     understanding of generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements;

•     ability to assess the general application of generally accepted accounting principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves;

•     experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements that present the breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by our financial statements, or experience actively supervising one or more persons engaged in such activities;

•     understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting; and

•     understanding of audit committee functions.

     Mr. Baresel’s experience and qualification as a financial expert were acquired through the active supervision of a principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller, public accountant, auditor or person performing similar functions and overseeing or assessing the performance of companies or public accountants with respect to the preparation, auditing or evaluation of financial statements.

     Mr. Baresel is not an independent director. We have been unable to attract a person to serve as one of our directors and that would qualify both as an independent director and as a financial expert because of inability to compensate our directors and provide liability insurance protection.

     Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, Beneficial Ownership Reporting Requirements

     Section 16(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors and executive officers and any persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and each exchange on which our securities are listed, reports of ownership and subsequent changes in ownership of our common stock and our other securities. Officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely on review of the copies of such reports furnished to us or written representations that no other reports were required, we believe that during 2003 all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were met, except for the late filing of one Form 4 by each of the following: Jason C. Ayers, Roger P. Baresel, Timothy J. Kilkenny, and Patricia R. Shurley.

Code of Ethics

     On March 25, 2003, our board of directors adopted our code of ethics that applies to all of our employees and directors, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions. A copy of the portion of this code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions may be obtained by written request addressed to Mr. Roger P. Baresel, Corporate Secretary, Fullnet Communications, Inc., 201 Robert S. Kerr, Suite 210, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102.

Item 10. Executive Compensation

     The following table sets forth, for the last three fiscal years, the cash compensation paid by us to our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (the “Named Executive Officer”). None of our executive officers earned annual compensation in excess of $100,000 during fiscal 2003.

Stock Options Granted

     We do not have a written stock option plan. However, the Board of Directors granted to our employees stock options exercisable for the purchase of 1,478,948 shares of our common stock during 2003. The following table shows stock options granted to Mr. Kilkenny during 2003.

(1)   Options were granted pursuant to an individual stock option agreement. Of these options, 120,000 were immediately exercisable, 182,000 will become exercisable on November 16, 2004, and 150,000 are subject to a three year vesting schedule and one-third will become exercisable on October 9 of each of 2004, 2005 and 2006. The options expire on October 9, 2013 and have an exercise price of $.04 per share, which was the fair value per share price of our common stock on the grant date.
 
(2)   All options granted during 2003 are nonqualified stock options. During 2003, an aggregate of 1,478,948 options were granted outside of a formal plan to employees. Options granted generally become exercisable in part after one year from the date of grant and generally have a term of ten years following the date of grant, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of the stock option agreement.

2003 Year End Option Values

     The following table sets forth information related to the exercise of stock options during 2003 and the number and value of options held by the following Named Executive Officer at December 31, 2003. During 2003, the Named Executive Officer did not exercise any options, nor did we reprice any outstanding options. For the purposes of this table, the “value” of an option is the difference between the estimated fair market value at December 31, 2003 of the shares of common stock subject to the option and the aggregate exercise price of such option.

Director Compensation

     During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, our directors did not receive any compensation for serving in such capacities.

Employment Agreements and Lack of Key man Insurance

     On July 31, 2002, we entered into employment agreements with Timothy J. Kilkenny and Roger P. Baresel. Each agreement is effective January 1, 2002, and has a term of two years; however, the term is automatically extended for additional one-year terms, unless we or the employee gives six-month advance notice of termination. These agreements provide, among other things, (i) an annual base salary of at least $75,000 for Mr. Kilkenny (of which he has voluntarily agreed to defer $25,000) and $65,000 for Mr. Baresel (of which he has voluntarily agreed to defer $15,000), (ii) bonuses at the discretion of the Board of Directors, (iii) entitlement to fringe benefits including medical and insurance benefits as may be provided to our other senior officers; and (iv) eligibility to participate in our incentive, bonus, benefit or similar plans. These agreements require the employee to devote the required time and attention to our business and affairs necessary to carry out his responsibilities and duties. These agreements may be terminated under certain circumstances and upon termination provide for (i) the employee to be released from personal liability for our debts and obligations, and (ii) the payment of any amounts we owe the employee.

     We do not maintain any key man insurance covering the death or disability of our executive officers. However, Mr. Kilkenny’s life insurance carries a death benefit which would pay the three bank notes payable totaling $394,600 at December 31, 2003, which he personally guaranteed.

Item 11. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

Security Ownership

     The following table sets forth information as of March 25, 2004, concerning the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock by each person (other than our directors and executive officers) who is known by us to own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock. The information is based on Schedules 13D or 13G filed by the applicable beneficial owner with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other information provided to us by the beneficial owner or our stock transfer agent.

Any shares a stockholder is deemed to own by having the right to acquire by exercise of an option or warrant are considered to be outstanding solely for the purpose of calculating that stockholder’s ownership percentage. We computed the percentage ownership amounts in accordance with the provisions of Rule 13d-3(d), which includes as beneficially owned all shares of common stock which the person or group has the right to acquire within the next 60 days, based upon 6,713,135 outstanding shares of common stock as of March 25, 2004.

The number of shares includes 440,000 shares of our common stock that are subject to currently exercisable common stock purchase warrants. Amounts shown do not include 150,000 shares of our common stock that are subject to common stock purchase warrants that are not currently exercisable because they contain a provision prohibiting their exercise to the extent that they would increase Generation Capital Associates’ percentage ownership beyond 9.9% of our outstanding shares of common stock.
 
(3)   Rupinder Sidu’s address is 10229 Tavistock Road, Orlando, FL 32827. Mr. Sidu holds 344,018 shares of our common stock. The number of shares includes 284,667 shares of our common stock that are subject to currently exercisable common stock purchase warrants.

(1)   Percent of class for any stockholder listed is calculated without regard to shares of common stock issuable to others upon exercise of outstanding stock options. Any shares a stockholder is deemed to own by having the right to acquire by exercise of an option or warrant are considered to be outstanding solely for the purpose of calculating that stockholder’s ownership percentage. We computed the percentage ownership amounts in accordance with the provisions of Rule 13d-3(d), which includes as beneficially owned all shares of common stock which the person or group has the right to acquire within the next 60 days, based upon 6,713,135 shares being outstanding at March 25, 2004.

     On August 2, 2000, we obtained a short-term loan of $100,000 from Timothy J. Kilkenny, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, through the issuance of a 14% promissory note. The terms of the financing additionally provided for the issuance of five-year warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of our common stock at $.01 per share, and provided for certain registration rights. The promissory note required monthly interest payments, matured on the earlier of (i) the date which is within five days of receipt of funds by us of any offering raising gross proceeds to us of at least $1,000,000 or (ii) in three months, and was extendible for two 90-day periods upon issuance of additional warrants exercisable for the purchase of 50,000 shares of our common stock for $.01 per share for each extension. In the fourth quarter of 2000, our founder and CEO agreed to reduce the interest rate on the promissory note to 9% and waive the warrant provisions relating to extensions of the loan. We repaid $50,000 on this note and the note was due in May 2001. In May 2001 Mr. Kilkenny agreed to a replacement note with an interest rate of 8.5% with monthly principal and interest payments and the note will mature in May 2006.

Item 14. Controls and Procedures

     Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible primarily for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

     Furthermore, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for the design and supervision of our internal controls over financial reporting that are then effected by and through our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These policies and procedures (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

     Our Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based upon their evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and the internal controls over financial reporting as of the last day of the period covered by this report, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting were fully effective during and as of the last day of the period covered by this report and reported to our auditors and the audit committee of our board of directors that no change in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report that would materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting. In conducting their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting, these executive officers did not discover any fraud that involved management or other employees who have a significant role in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting.

Furthermore, there were no significant changes in our disclosure controls and procedures, internal controls over financial reporting, or other factors that could significantly affect our disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting subsequent to the date of their evaluation. Because no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses were discovered, no corrective actions were necessary or taken to correct significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in our internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures.

Report of Independent Certified Public Accountants

Board of Directors
FullNet Communications, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of FullNet Communications, Inc. (an Oklahoma corporation) and Subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2003 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of FullNet Communications, Inc. and Subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2003 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $678,680 for the year ended December 31, 2003 and, as of that date, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $2,300,220. These factors, among others, as discussed in Note A to the financial statements, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note A. The 2003 financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2003 and 2002

NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

FullNet Communications, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) is an integrated communications provider (ICP) offering communications, connectivity and data storage to individuals, businesses, organizations and educational institutions, as well as governmental agencies. Through its subsidiaries, FullNet, Inc., FullTel, Inc. and FullWeb, Inc., the Company provides Internet solutions designed to meet customer needs. Services offered include:

    Dial-up and direct high-speed connectivity to the Internet through the FullNet brand name;

    Backbone services to private label Internet services providers (ISPs) and businesses;

    Carrier-neutral telecommunications premise co-location; and

    Web page hosting and server co-location.

The Company operates and grants credit, on an uncollateralized basis. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Company’s customer base and their dispersion across different industries. However, the Company has one primary customer for its carrier-neutral telecommunications premise co-location services.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has sustained substantial net losses in 2003 and 2002. In addition, at December 31, 2003 current liabilities exceed current assets by $2,300,220.

In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon continued operations of the Company that in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet its financing requirements on a continuing basis, to maintain present financing, to achieve the objectives of its business plan and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

The Company’s business plan includes, among other things, expansion of its Internet access services through mergers and acquisitions and the development of its web hosting and co-location services. Execution of the Company’s business plan will require significant capital to fund capital expenditures, working capital needs, debt service and the cash flow deficits generated by operating losses. Current cash balances will not be sufficient to fund the Company’s current business plan beyond the next few months. As a consequence, the Company is currently seeking additional convertible debt and/or equity financing as well as the placement of a credit facility to fund the Company’s liquidity. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital on satisfactory terms or at all.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows.

F-7


Table of Contents

1.   Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FullNet Communications, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

2.   Revenue Recognition

Access service revenues are recognized on a monthly basis over the life of each contract as services are provided. Contract periods range from monthly to yearly. Deferred revenues are calculated for those contracts that require prepayment and continue subsequent to the current year-end. Carrier-neutral telecommunications co-location revenues are recognized on a monthly basis over the life of the contract as services are provided.

3.   Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable consist of the following as of December 31:

                 
    2003
  2002
Accounts receivable
  $ 54,393     $ 43,800  
Less allowance for doubtful accounts
    (24,883 )     (9,061 )
 
   
 
     
 
 
 
  $ 29,510     $ 34,739  
 
   
 
     
 
 

4.   Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:

     
Software
  3 years
Computers and equipment
  5 years
Furniture and fixtures
  7 years
Leasehold improvements
  Shorter of estimated life of improvement or the lease term

5.   Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist primarily of acquired customer bases and covenants not to compete and are carried net of accumulated amortization. Upon initial application of SFAS 142 as of January 1, 2002, the Company reassessed useful lives and began amortizing these intangible assets over their estimated useful lives and in direct relation to any decreases in the acquired customer bases to which they relate. Management believes that such amortization reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed or otherwise used up.

6.   Long-Lived Assets

The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets in determining impairment losses on long-term assets. All long-lived assets held and used by the Company, including intangible assets, are reviewed to determine whether any events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. The Company bases its evaluation on such impairment indicators as the nature of the assets, the future economic benefit of the assets, any historical or future profitability measurements, as well as other external market conditions or factors that may be present. If such impairment indicators are present or other factors exist that indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable the Company determines whether an impairment has occurred through the use of an undiscounted cash flows analysis of the asset. If an impairment

F-8


Table of Contents

has occurred, the Company recognizes a loss for the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated value of the asset.

7.   Accrued and Other Current Liabilities

Accrued and other current liabilities consist of the following as of December 31:

                 
    2003
  2002
Accrued interest
  $ 226,874     $ 131,035  
Accrued deferred compensation
    261,515       204,721  
Accrued other liabilities
    59,638       46,921  
 
   
 
     
 
 
 
  $ 548,027     $ 382,677  
 
   
 
     
 
 

8.   Income Taxes

The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method, deferred income taxes are provided on temporary differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the consolidated financial statements and carryforwards that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years. Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are determined by applying the presently enacted tax rates and laws. Additionally, the Company provides a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

9.   Loss Per Common Share

Loss per common share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year, including common shares issuable without additional consideration. Basic and diluted loss per share were the same for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 because the following were not dilutive:

                 
    2003
  2002
Common shares attributable to convertible promissory notes
    1,003,659       810,535  
Employee common stock options
    2,903,366       1,589,252  
Other common stock options and warrants
    2,201,681       2,151,681  
 
   
 
     
 
 
 
    6,108,706       4,551,468  
 
   
 
     
 
 

10.   Stock Options and Warrants

The Company’s employee stock options are accounted for under APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations. Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock options been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates consistent with the method of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Company’s net loss and loss per share in 2003 and 2002 would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

F-9


Table of Contents

                 
    2003
  2002
Net loss As reported
  $ (678,608 )   $ (822,980 )
Pro forma
  $ (805,031 )   $ (1,074,967 )
Basic and diluted loss per share As reported
  $ (.10 )   $ (.12 )
Pro forma
  $ (.12 )   $ (.16 )

The fair value of each option grant prior to February 2000 was estimated on the date of grant using the minimum value method because there was no public trading market for the Company’s securities. During February 2000, the Company’s common stock began trading on the NASD Electronic Bulletin Board under the symbol FULO. The fair value of the options granted subsequent to February 2000 have been estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The following weighted average assumptions were used:

                 
    2003
  2002
Risk free interest rate
    4.3 %     5.1 %
Expected lives (in years)
    5       5  
Expected volatility
    132.5 %     143.2 %
Dividend yield
    0 %     0 %

For warrants issued with debt, a portion of the proceeds received is allocated to the warrants based on the relative fair values of the warrants, determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, and the debt. The resulting discount on the debt is amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

Other issuances of stock options and warrants are valued using the Black-Scholes valuation model and accounted for based on the consideration received.

11.   Advertising

The Company expenses advertising production costs as they are incurred and advertising communication costs the first time the advertising takes place. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 was $15,546 and $9,224, respectively.

12.   Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures; accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

13.   Recently Issued Accounting Standards

During April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 149 - “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, except as stated below and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. In addition, except as stated below, all provisions of this Statement should be applied prospectively. The provisions of this Statement that relate to Statement 133 Implementation Issues that have been effective for fiscal quarters that began prior to June 15, 2003, should continue to be applied in accordance with their respective effective dates. In addition, paragraphs 7(a) and 23(a),

F-10


Table of Contents

which relate to forward purchases or sales of when-issued securities or other securities that do not yet exist, should be applied to both existing contracts and new contracts entered into after June 30, 2003. The Company does not participate in such transactions, however, is evaluating the effect of this new pronouncement, if any, and will adopt FASB 149 within the prescribed time.

During May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 150 - “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity”, effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. This Statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a freestanding financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. Some of the provisions of this Statement are consistent with the current definition of liabilities in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statements. The Company is evaluating the effect of this new pronouncement and will adopt FASB 150 within the prescribed time.

During October 2003, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FIN 46 deferring the effective date for applying the provisions of FIN 46 until the end of the first interim or annual period ending after December 31, 2003 if the variable interest was created prior to February 1, 2003 and the public entity has not issued financial statements reporting that variable interest entity in accordance with FIN 46. The FASB also indicated it would be issuing a modification to FIN 46 prior to the end of 2003. Accordingly, the Company has deferred the adoption of FIN 46 with respect to variable interest entities created prior to February 1, 2003. Management is currently assessing the impact, if any, FIN 46 may have on the Company; however, management does not believe there will be any material impact on its consolidated financial statements, results of operations or liquidity resulting from the adoption of this interpretation.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS 142, Goodwill and Intangible Assets. SFAS 141 is effective for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001; however, certain provisions of this Statement apply to goodwill and other intangible assets acquired between July 1, 2001 and the effective date of SFAS 142. The provisions of 142 provide that goodwill, as well as intangible assets with indefinite lives, acquired after June 30, 2001, not be amortized and, effective January 1, 2002, all previously recognized goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will no longer be subject to amortization. The statement also provides that upon initial application the useful lives of previously recognized intangible assets be reassessed and remaining amortization periods adjusted accordingly.

The Company’s previously recognized intangible assets consist primarily of customer bases and covenants not to compete relating to those customer bases. Upon initial application of SFAS 142 as of January 1, 2002, the Company reassessed useful lives and began amortizing these intangible assets over their estimated useful lives and in direct relation to any decreases in the acquired customer bases to which they relate. Management believes that such amortization reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed or otherwise used up.

Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 relating to intangible assets was $236,791 and $448,579, respectively.

(2) During 2000 and 2001, the Company issued 11% convertible promissory notes or converted other notes payable or accounts payable to convertible promissory notes in an amount totaling $2,257,624. The terms of the Notes are 36 months with limited prepayment provisions. The Notes may be converted by the holder at any time at $1.00 per share and by the Company upon registration and when the closing price of the Company’s common stock has been at or above $3.00 per share for three consecutive trading days. Additionally, the Notes are accompanied by warrants exercisable for the purchase of the number of shares of Company common stock equal to the number obtained by dividing 25% of the face amount of the Notes purchased by $1.00. These warrants are exercisable at any time during the five years following issuance at an exercise price of $.01 per share. Under the terms of the Notes, the Company was required to register the common stock underlying both the Notes and the detached warrants by filing a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 45 days following the Final Expiration Date of the Offering (March 31, 2001). On May 31, 2001, the Company exchanged 2,064,528 shares of its common stock and warrants (exercisable for the purchase of 436,748 shares of common stock at $2.00 per share) for convertible promissory notes in the principal amount of $1,746,988 (recorded at $1,283,893) plus accrued interest of $123,414. The warrants expire on May 31, 2006. This exchange was accounted for as an induced debt conversion and a debt conversion expense of $370,308 was recorded.

Pursuant to the provisions of the convertible promissory notes, the conversion price was reduced from $1.00 per share on January 15, 2001 to $.49 per share on December 31, 2003 for failure to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the common stock underlying the convertible promissory notes and underlying warrants on December 15, 2001. Reductions in conversion price are recognized at the date of reduction by an increase to additional paid-in capital and an increase in the discount on the convertible promissory notes. Furthermore, the interest rate was increased to 12.5% per annum from 11% per annum because the registration statement was not filed before March 1, 2001. At December 31, 2003, the outstanding principal and interest of the convertible promissory notes was $633,936.

On January 1, 2002, the Company recorded 11,815 shares of common stock issuable in payment of $11,815 accrued interest on a portion of the Company’s convertible promissory notes.

On November 9, 2003, $455,000 of these convertible promissory notes matured and an additional $50,000 matured on December 1, 2003. The Company was unable to pay these notes at maturity and are currently developing a plan to satisfy these notes which will be subject to the approval of each individual note holder.

(3) During February 2003, upon the receipt and installation of a telephone switch the Company made a down payment of $14,950. The remaining balance of $202,200 was financed by the supplier at 10% interest to be paid in 18 monthly payments beginning in March 2003.

(4) Includes five notes with past due principal and accrued interest totaling $93,613 at December 31, 2003. The Company has not made payment or negotiated an extension of the notes and the lenders have not made any demands.

At December 31, 2003, the Company has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $2,900,000 that will expire at various dates through 2021. As such carry forward can only be used to offset future taxable income of the Company, management has provided a valuation allowance until it is more likely than not that taxable income will be generated.

The Company’s employee stock options are accounted for under APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations. Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock options been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates consistent with the method of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Company’s net loss and loss per share in 2003 and 2002 would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

                 
    2003
  2002
Net loss As reported
  $ (678,608 )   $ (822,980 )

Basic and diluted loss per share As reported
  $ (.10 )   $ (.12 )
Pro forma
  $ (.12 )   $ (.16 )

The fair value of each option grant prior to February 2000 was estimated on the date of grant using the minimum value method because there was no public trading market for the Company’s securities. During February 2000, the Company’s common stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol FULO. The fair value of the options granted subsequent to February 2000 have been estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
