NOTE TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999 (UNAUDITED) ================================================================================ 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada for interim information and with the instructions to Form 10Q and Rule 10-1 of the United States Securities Act of 1933 or Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals and certain adjustments to reserves and allowances considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2001. 2. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN CANADA AND THOSE IN THE UNITED STATES WEB SITE COSTS The costs of developing the commercial web sites are allowed to be deferred under the Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. However, these costs should be expensed under US GAAP. Accordingly, under the US GAAP, net loss for period would be $185,377 (1999: $160,741). Total assets would be $2,397,844 (1999: $155,573) and deficit would be $17,533,481 (1999: $ 16,108,388). INVESTMENTS Investments in marketable equity securities that are classified as short-term investments under Canadian GAAP, are grouped into trading and available-for-sale categories and accounted for at fair value under the US GAAP. Unrealized holding gains or losses on trading securities are included in the income. Unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are included in shareholders' equity. Investments in equity securities that are classified as long term investments under the Canadian GAAP, are accounted for at fair value under the US GAAP. Unrealized holding gains and losses are included in shareholders' equity. No significant adjustment would be required in the net loss for year, total assets and deficit under the US GAAP. RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENT In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the effective date of FASB Statement No. 133", which deferred the required date of adoption of SFAS No. 133 for one year, to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. This Standard is applicable for the Corporation's 2001 fiscal year. The adoption of SFAS No. 137 had no material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2000. 6 DEALCHECK.COM INC.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated (unaudited) financial statements of the Company, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in Canada. A summary of material adjustments to conform to U.S. GAAP is set out in Note 2 to the consolidated (unaudited) financial statements. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Three months ended June 30 2000 1999 -------------in 000' CDN$------------- Income 47 - - Expenses 230 151 ----------------------------------- Net Loss for period 183 151 Deficit at end of period 17,520 16,099 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7 Income consisted of interest earned of $3,220, exchange gain of $32,441 and net gain on investments of $11,631 Exchange gain mainly resulted from translation of monetary assets and liabilities in U.S. dollar into Canadian Dollar at the rate at June 30, 2000. Decline in the value of Canadian Dollar in comparison to the U.S. Dollar from $1.4494 CDN$ to $1 US at March 31, 2000 to $1.4802 CDN at June 30, 2000 resulted in the net exchange gain on conversion. Net gain on investments is net of realized losses during the three months ended June 30, 2000 of $120,433 and a net holding gain of $132,064. On short term investments mainly in marketable securities. The major components of expenses are as follows: TRAVEL, PROMOTION AND CONSULTING - Three months ended June 30 2000 1999 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Travel, meals and entertainment 27,877 837 Consulting 134,467 110,654 Promotion 142 - ____________________________________________ 162,486 111,491 ============================================ % of operating expenses 70% 74% During the first quarter ended June 30, 2000, the management focused its attention entirely on seeking long term business opportunities, while at the same time monitoring investments made during the fiscal year 2000. These efforts involved significant traveling during the previous fiscal year's first quarter; management was formulating the new business strategy and as a result had no major travel costs. Consulting costs include a consulting fee of $44,406 (quarter ended June 30, 1999: $45,955) charged by a shareholder under a Consulting agreement. The services provided included arranging non-interest bearing working capital funds, introduction to business opportunities and public relations. The Company signed an Investor relation agreement with a Canadian private company for a one year term at a fee of US$10,000 per month plus expenses. A total fee of $44,406 was charged by this company for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and is included in the Consulting fee. The investor relations firm will handle the financial communications for the Company. Other consulting fees of $45,655 in the quarter ended June 30, 2000 related to fees paid for general IT, management and corporate services. During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, total fee of $ 64,699 was incurred for similar services. PROFESSIONAL FEES Professional fees in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 were $18,000 compared to $8,187 in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The significant increase in fee was due mainly to significant increase in the business activities and in completing the review process of the registration statement with Securities and Exchange Commission to acquire fully reporting company status and maintain the Company's listing on the OTC bulletin board of NASDAQ. PROJECTS DEVELOPMENT COSTS Total costs were $12,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. There were no such costs in the prior period.

Further details of the various projects are given in the Investment section under "Liquidity and Capital Requirements". 8 OTHER OPERATING COSTS Other operating costs in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 were 37,183, which included $10,020 related entirely to the legal and other costs incurred in connection with the Registration Statement of the Company with SEC.

These costs include rent, telephone, Internet, transfer agents fees and other general and administration costs and reflects the management's continued attention to keeping these costs to minimum. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS CASH AND WORKING CAPITAL Cash on hand at June 30, 2000 was $335,239 compared to $11,806 at June 30, 1999. Net working capital at June 30, 2000 was approx. $1.3 million compared to a deficit of approx. $55,000 in the working capital at June 30, 1999. Significant improvement in the liquidity of the Company was the result of a successful private placement of approx. $3.3 million in the fiscal 2000. Trade and Notes payables at June 30, 2000 were $47,862 compared to $ 45,266 at June 30, 1999.

The WVC has recently appointed a new president and is seeking additional equity funds. The management is actively pursuing opportunities to find buyers or possibly to sell back to WVC the entire investment at least at cost. 9 The Company invested in Developersnetwork.com (DN) during the fiscal 2000 by way of convertible debentures. As at March 31, 2000, total amount invested was $36,741. In May 2000, the Company received the full amount back with interest and also received, by way of a compensation for early settlement, an option to purchase 50,000 common shares of DN at $1 per share exercisable within two years. ADVANCES As at March 31, 2000, the Company held a subscription advance of $ 489,173 for the acquisition of common shares of Idealab.com from a private investor. The Company later decided against this acquisition and recovered the amount in full in May 2000. Advances given during the three months ended June 30, 2000 included the following two major advances to companies, which may be the potential acquisition targets: Realtimememories.com Inc. Amount advanced $ 148,060 First Empire Entertainment.com Inc. Amount advanced $ 114,250 Advances to Realtimememories.com were fully received with interest in July 2000. The Company also received a facilitation fee of US$ 10,000 in cash and 75,000 common shares in that company and 75,000 warrants at $0.50 each exercisable by 2002. First Empire Entertainment.com Inc. (First Empire) is a Canadian public company whose main business is entertainment.

First Empire acquired the rights to the adaptation from a Toronto based writer and lyricist. First Empire initiated two previews, one in Toronto and the other in New York. It will be seeking additional funds to commence a workshop leading to a full blown road shows. Dealcheck.com Inc. will likely convert its advances into shares of First Empire. INTERNET PROJECTS The current investment is in the design and development of IRCheck.com, a web site which will provide a comprehensive data base of investors relation firms to facilitate an informed decision for the prospective public companies desiring to outsource its investors relation and media relation work to an independent firm. The Company spent $10,000 up to March 31, 2000 in getting the web site design completed by an independent design firm. It incurred further $3,000 in hiring consultants to collate and develop contents and have to date gathered information on about 500 IR firms in North America. The web site development work is in progress and the commercial launch is expected in November 2000. The Company expects to spend further about $ 50,000 on web site and content development and further $100,000 on marketing. Revenue is expected from the listing fee to be charged to IR firms and other sponsorship on the site. No significant revenue is expected until the end of the fiscal 2001. LONG TERM INVESTMENTS As part of the Company's Internet strategy, the Company invested in certain new and emerging Internet businesses that have demonstrated significant potential for growth in the long run. While these investments reflect only a small fraction of the investee companies' equity, the management believes that they are likely to provide much higher return on the investment and offer opportunities for synergistic business relationship among the other companies and projects within the Company's portfolio. There has not been any major change in the Company's portfolio during the three months ended June 30, 2000. The major investment is in a private company -Dataloom Inc, where the Company's investment stood at $739,365 - about 31% of the total assets of the Company. The Company's investment comprises 500,000 Series B preferred stock convertible at the Company's option at any time, into equal number of Common shares of Dataloom Inc. The company's holding, if converted now would represent approximately 5% equity interest in Dataloom Inc. 10 Dataloom Inc. was formed as a corporation in August 1999 in the State of Washington, US for the purpose of providing state-of-the-art web based business service solutions for small office home office enterprises. Dataloom, Inc. has developed a framework to deploy an exceptional information management solution for small to medium enterprise users (SME's). Comprising a full suite of powerful web-available applications and information management systems, this solution changes the way on-the-go professionals conduct business--anytime, anywhere, from any Internet connected device. Dataloom's application services framework (xLoom) utilizes XML (Extensible Markup Language) and a proprietary Application Services Directory that enables web-based application interfaces to be delivered to any wired or wireless device in real time. xLoom enables a new generation of fast, flexible productivity tools. While the company's investment does not entitle the Company to exercise any influence over the management of Dataloom Inc., the management remains in close contact with the management of Dataloom Inc. to ensure its investment value is not impaired. The Management was informed by Dataloom Inc. that it had attracted certain high profile investors and had recently negotiated agreements with major Japanese Companies to launch its products in the Japanese market, and also that Dataloom Inc. currently received sufficient advances from its signed contracts to support its operating requirements. CAPITAL EXPENDITURE The Company spent $17,850 on capital assets; mainly comprising computers, during the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $2,620 during the three months ended June 30, 1999. The increased capital expenditure was due to the web projects and additional consultants. FUTURE CAPITAL REQUIREMENT The management plans to make couple of strategic acquisitions during fiscal 2001 mainly from the disposal of its short-term investments, advances and /or from the cash flow from exercise of the warrants attached to the Units under the fiscal 2000 private placement. It will also focus on fully developing IRCheck.com site and ensure its commercial launch during the fiscal year 2001. The management estimates that its working capital requirements to remain at around $500,000 for the next nine months, which it hopes to cover from the funds raised in the private placement during the fiscal 2000. The management believes that the ten private placement investees will exercise their warrants during the fiscal 2001, which could generate further cash of about $4.5 million (approx. $3 million US). In the event warrants are not exercised or further capital is not raised, the Company may dispose of part or all of its investment in Dataloom Inc. It is the intention of the management to keep enough liquidity to meet its operating requirements for the following eighteen months. FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS.
