AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PREPARATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any future period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, as amended on August 10, 1999, for the year ended March 31, 1999. ORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION AND BUSINESS The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of New Frontier Media, Inc. ("the Company" or "New Frontier Media") and its wholly owned subsidiaries Colorado Satellite Broadcasting, Inc. ("CSB"), Boulder Interactive Group ("BIG"), Fuzzy Entertainment, Inc. ("Fuzzy"), David Entertainment, Inc. ("David"), Interactive Telecom Network, Inc. ("ITN"), Interactive Gallery, Inc. ("IGI") and 90% of Card Transactions, Inc. ("CTI"). The Company sold its 70% interest in BIG in June 1998, discontinued the operations of Fuzzy during the year ended March 31, 1998, and discontinued the operations of David during the year ended March 31, 1999. In addition, on October 27, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of ITN and IGI and 90% of CTI. These acquisitions have been accounted for in the accompanying financial statements as a pooling of interests. In June 1999, New Frontier Media, through its subsidiary CSB, launched Pleasure, a new 24-hour adult network that incorporates the most edited standard available in the category. Pleasure is available to direct broadcast satellite providers and multiple system cable operators. Pleasure competes directly with Playboy Enterprises, Inc.'s ("Playboy") adult network services (Playboy TV, Spice and Spice 2) in the most edited adult programming category. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding warrants and stock options using the "treasury stock" method and the effect of convertible preferred stock using the "if-converted" method. 7 NEW FRONTIER MEDIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) The components of basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. NOTE 2 -- SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY In May of 1999, the remaining 40,000 warrants of a total of 175,000 warrants to purchase common stock in the Company at $3.4785 per share were exercised by previous debenture holders. In July 1999, New Frontier Media issued 500,000 shares of its common stock to Metro Global Media, Inc. ("Metro") at $7.875 per share as consideration in obtaining a license agreement for the rights to distribute the entity's 3,000 title adult film and video library and multi-million still image archive. In addition, the Company issued 100,000 warrants to purchase its common stock at an exercise price equal to the market value of the stock on the date the warrants were issued. In August 1999, the Company raised $3,901,177 less redemption costs of $43,749 through the exercise of 600,181 of its 1,500,000 publicly traded warrants to purchase common stock. These warrants had been called by the Company in June 1999 with a redemption date of August 13, 1999. The remaining 886,619 warrants were redeemed at $.05 per share. On October 27, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition of ITN and IGI and 90% of CTI. Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, New Frontier Media issued 6,000,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock to the Sellers of the companies. This acquisition has been accounted for as a pooling of interests. In October 1999, the Company issued 5,000 shares of its common stock as part of a settlement of a lawsuit to which it was a party. NOTE 3 -- LICENSE AGREEMENT As discussed above in Note 2, New Frontier Media executed a definitive license agreement to acquire exclusive rights to Metro's 3,000 title adult film and video library and multi-million still image archive for a period of seven years with renewal provisions. In addition, the Company entered into a multi- 8 NEW FRONTIER MEDIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) year production agreement with Metro which calls for the delivery of at least three new adult feature titles per month over the next five years. NOTE 4 -- STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS The Company granted options and warrants to employees, consultants and unrelated third parties for services provided allowing them to purchase common stock of New Frontier Media at a price equal to or in excess of the current market price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The following information describes certain information relating to these warrants:

Additionally, the Company's shareholders voted to approve the Company's 1999 Incentive Stock Option Plan. This plan reserves 1,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock for Options to be awarded to employees, officers and directors of the Company. The exercise price of options granted under the plan may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares on the date an option is granted. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had granted 1,300,000 Options from the Plan. NOTE 5 -- SERIES C CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK On October 14, 1999, the Company issued 600 shares of 7% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock at $10,000 per share to a single institutional investor. The Preferred Stock is initially convertible into the Company's common stock at a price of $7.87 per share which was equal to 140% of the market price of the Company's stock at the closing date of the transaction. The Company has the right to redeem the Preferred Stock at any time, in whole or in part, at a price equal to the amount the investor would have received if the investor had then converted its shares of Preferred Stock into common stock, or, if greater, 115% of the amount paid by the investor for the Preferred Stock. On the six-month anniversary of the date of closing, the conversion price will be reset to 95% of the average of the five lowest daily volume-weighted average prices for the Company's common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding such anniversary date, if such price is lower than 9 NEW FRONTIER MEDIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) $7.87. Until the Preferred Stock is converted or redeemed, the conversion price will similarly reset on every following three-month anniversary. In connection with this transaction, the Company also issued to its investor 60,000 warrants dated September 30, 1999, exercisable at $7.87 per share, to purchase common stock of the Company for each $1 million invested with the Company. NOTE 6 -- COMPREHENSIVE INCOME/(LOSS) The components of comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, are as follows (in thousands):
3 MONTHS ENDED 9 MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, DECEMBER 31, ------------------- -------------------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 ------- ------ ------- ------- Net Income/(Loss)............................ $ 68 $ (294) $ (507) $(3,307) Unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities................................... $ (518) $ -- $ (518) $ -- ------- ------ ------- ------- Comprehensive net loss....................... $ (450) $ (294) $(1,025) $(3,307) ======= ====== ======= =======
Accumulated other comprehensive loss consists of the unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities, net of tax, as presented on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company received 250,000 shares of Metro's common stock in exchange for services to be provided to Metro by CSB over a five-year period. At December 31, 1999, the unrealized loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income is a result of a $517,500 decrease in the market value of these shares. NOTE 7 -- ACQUISITIONS On October 27, 1999, the Company acquired ITN, IGI, and 90% of CTI. ITN is a leading Internet technology and e-commerce company that provides turnkey Internet software engineering, bandwidth, merchant account management, and credit card processing. IGI is a leading aggregator and reseller of adult content via the Internet. CTI does not currently have substantial business operations but is intended to be developed over the next year into a merchant account processing company marketed to Internet companies. Under the terms of the acquisition, which was accounted for as a pooling of interests, the Company exchanged 6,000,000 shares of restricted common stock for all of the outstanding stock in ITN and IGI and 90% of the outstanding stock of CTI. NOTE 8 -- RELATED PARTIES TRANSACTIONS Amounts due to related parties for the period ended December 31, 1999 is $821,828. This amount due is non-interest bearing. The related party note payable for the period ended December 31, 1999, is $809,000. This note and related interest is payable in 2001. Interest is calculated at prime rate. NOTE 9 -- CONTINGENCIES The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit filed on January 25, 1999, in which the plaintiff seeks to enforce an alleged agreement by the Company to convey to the plaintiff a 70% equity interest in the Company. The plaintiff is also seeking $10 million in liquidated damages and/or unspecified damages. The Company disputes that there exists a binding and enforceable agreement to transfer any equity interest in New Frontier Media to the plaintiff and filed on February 10, 1999 a motion for partial summary judgement directed to this issue. To date, the court has neither ruled on nor set the Company's motion for a hearing. The Company will continue to vigorously defend itself against the plaintiff's claims. The loss, if any, cannot be estimated at the present time. 10 NEW FRONTIER MEDIA, INC.

11 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION THIS QUARTERLY REPORT ON FORM 10QSB AND THE INFORMATION INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE MAY INCLUDE "FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS" WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 27A OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND SECTION 21E OF THE EXCHANGE ACT. THE COMPANY INTENDS THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS TO BE COVERED BY THE SAFE HARBOR PROVISIONS FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. ALL STATEMENTS REGARDING THE COMPANY'S EXPECTED FINANCIAL POSITION AND OPERATING RESULTS, ITS BUSINESS STRATEGY, ITS FINANCING PLANS AND THE OUTCOME OF ANY CONTINGENCIES ARE FORWARD- LOOKING STATEMENTS. THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE SET FORTH OR IMPLIED BY ANY FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS. OVERVIEW New Frontier Media was originally incorporated in the State of Colorado on February 23, 1988. The Company was engaged in the reference CD-ROM publishing business through its 70% ownership of BIG and in the distribution of adult feature films in the digital versatile disc ("DVD") format through its wholly owned subsidiary David. New Frontier sold its 70% interest in BIG in June 1998. In addition, the Company discontinued the operations of David during its fiscal year ended March 31, 1999. On February 18, 1998, the Company consummated an underwritten public offering of 1,500,000 units, each consisting of one share of common stock and one redeemable common stock warrant, raising $7,087,000 in net proceeds after underwriting fees. Simultaneous with the public offering, New Frontier Media acquired the adult satellite television assets of Fifth Dimension Communications (Barbados), Inc. and its related entities ("Fifth Dimension"). As a result of the Fifth Dimension acquisition, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary CSB, became a leading provider of adult programming to low-powered ("C-Band") direct-to-home ("DTH") households. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had the following number of subscriptions to its three C-Band networks: Extasy 57,232, True Blue 52,675, and GonzoX 47,272. In August 1998, New Frontier Media launched TeN: The Erotic Network ("TeN") as a new adult network targeted specifically to cable television system operators and medium-to-high powered DTH satellite service providers (Direct Broadcast Satellite, or "DBS"). Unlike New Frontier Media's C-Band networks, TeN offers partially-edited adult programming which is intended to appeal to cable operators and DBS providers while delivering more of the content elements adult video consumers expect to receive. As of December 31, 1999, TeN was available to approximately 4.4 million cable/ DBS households. On June 1, 1999, New Frontier Media launched Pleasure, a 24-hour adult network that incorporates the most edited standard available in the category, on EchoStar Communications Corporation's DISH Network and on Time Warner's West Valley Region Cable Systems. Pleasure competes directly with Playboy Enterprises, Inc.'s ("Playboy") adult network services (Playboy TV, Spice and Spice 2) in the most-edited adult programming category. As of December 31, 1999, Pleasure was available to approximately 3.5 million cable/DBS households. On October 27, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition of ITN, IGI and 90% of CTI. Under the terms of the acquisition, which was accounted for in the accompanying financial statements as a pooling of interests, the Company exchanged 6,000,000 shares of restricted common stock for all of the outstanding stock in ITN and IGI and 90% of CTI. ITN is a leading Internet technology and e-commerce company that provides turnkey Internet software engineering, bandwidth, merchant account management, and credit card processing. ITN provides the following Internet technology functions: dedicated Internet access, web hosting, 12 co-location services, systems and network integration, web site management, web development, and streaming media products. IGI is a leading aggregator and reseller of adult content via the Internet. IGI aggregates adult-recorded video, live feed video and still photography from third-party adult content studios and distributes via its subscriber membership websites and Internet Pay-Per-View feeds. In addition, IGI resells its aggregated content to third-party web masters ("flat rate feed" revenue) and resells its Internet traffic that does not convert into memberships ("sale of traffic" revenue). IGI maintains a consumer membership base of over 100,000 monthly revenue generating consumer subscribers to its owned and operated websites. CTI has no substantial business operations at this time. The Company intends to develop CTI into a merchant account processing company marketed to Internet companies. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

* Should be decreased by $.7 million for audit adjustment to deferred revenue -- See MD&A -- Net Revenue discussion. 13 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW NET REVENUE Net revenue for the Company was $12.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, a 31% increase from $9.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. The improvement is due to Subscription/PPV TV revenue increasing to $4.6 million from $3.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, a 31% increase. Additionally, Internet revenue increased to $7.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 compared to $5.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 30%. Net revenue for the Company was $34.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999, a 56% increase from $21.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. The improvement is due to both the increases in total net revenue for Subscription/PPV TV and Internet net revenue. Subscription/PPV TV net revenue increased to $11.8 million for the nine months ended 1999, compared to $7.5 million for the nine months ended 1998, an increase of $4.3 million. Internet net revenue increased to $21.6 million for the nine months ended 1999, compared to $14.1 million, an increase of $7.5 million. OPERATING INCOME/(LOSS) Operating income for the Company for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was $.1 million compared to an operating loss of $.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Operating loss for the Company for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 was $.5 million compared to $3.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. The improvement in operating income and loss for both the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1999, is primarily due to the increase in revenue combined with an increase in gross profit margin in both periods for Subscription/PPV TV and Internet. SUBSCRIPTION/PAY-PER-VIEW (PPV) TV GROUP NET REVENUE Net revenue for the Subscription/PPV TV Group was $4.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, a 31% increase from $3.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. C-Band net revenue was $2.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 compared to $2.6 million (adjusted for a non-recurring audit adjustment of $.7 million with respect to a miscalculation of deferred revenue) for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Revenue from Cable/DBS for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was $2.0 million compared to $.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Revenue from the Company's Cable/DBS products is responsible for approximately 43% of total net subscription revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 compared to 6% for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Net revenue for the Subscription/PPV TV Group for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 was $11.8 million, a 57% increase from $7.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. C-Band net revenue was $8.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 compared to $7.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 10%. Additionally, revenue from the Company's Cable/DBS networks, TeN, Pleasure, and Extasy was $3.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999, up from $.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. C-Band revenue increases for both the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1999 were due to an increase in the number of total subscriptions. Total C-Band subscriptions as of December 31, 1999 were 157,179 compared to 128,997 as of December 31, 1998. Due to the declining number of total addressable C-Band direct-to-home subscribers (currently estimated at approximately 1.8 million), the Company expects very little, if any, growth in its C-Band revenue in future periods. 14 Increases in the Company's Cable/DBS revenue for both the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1999 are a result of the launch of its TeN and Pleasure networks as well as the result of marketing its Extasy network to Cable/DBS providers. As of December 31, 1999, TeN, Pleasure and Extasy were available to approximately 8.0 million addressable Cable and DBS households, up from 1.9 million addressable households as of December 31, 1998. In addition TeN is available on a monthly and annual subscription basis to DBS households via Echostar Communications Corporation's DISH Network ("DISH"). As of December 31, 1999, TeN had approximately 76,000 DISH subscribers. The Company has experienced several positive changes with respect to its distribution of TeN and Pleasure on DISH. With its initial launch on DISH in June 1999, due to technical limitations, Pleasure was only available on a pay-per-view ("PPV") basis to approximately 40,000 addressable DISH households. In late July 1999, these technical limitations were overcome and Pleasure is now available to all addressable DISH households (approximately 3.4 million as of December 31, 1999). At the time, this change resulted in an approximately 200% increase in monthly revenue for Pleasure. Since its initial launch, TeN has only been available to DISH households on a monthly and annual subscription basis. As of September 1999, TeN is now available to DISH households on both a subscription and PPV basis. In addition, the price of a monthly subscription was increased by $5.00. At the time, these two changes resulted in an approximately 110% increase in monthly revenue to TeN. Management expects that its Cable/DBS revenue will continue to increase and the number of addressable households will continue to increase in future periods as it aggressively promotes TeN, Pleasure and Extasy to additional multiple system operators ("MSO") and DBS providers. The Company recently announced that it has secured a corporate carriage commitment for Pleasure with Time Warner, Inc. and anticipates a minimum of 1.0 million additional addressable households for this network during the Company's fourth quarter. In addition, the Company expects revenue from Extasy to increase due to the launch of this network on DISH in January 2000. Extasy will be offered by DISH on both a subscription and PPV basis. COST OF SALES Cost of Sales for the Subscription/PPV TV Group was $2.7 million, or 59% of revenue, for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 as compared to $2.1 million, or 60% of revenue, for the quarter ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 29%. Cost of sales for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 was $7.8 million, or 66% of revenue, as compared to $6.0 million, or 80% of revenue, for the nine months ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 30%. Cost of sales consists of expenses associated with broadcast playout, satellite uplinking, satellite transponder space, program acquisition amortization, and call center operations. The increase in cost of sales for both the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1999 is primarily due to the increase in program acquisition costs, satellite uplinking, broadcast playout, and transponder space costs associated with the addition of TeN and Pleasure. Because approximately 70% of the Company's cost of sales are fixed in nature, management does not anticipate any significant increase in cost of sales in future periods with respect to its existing networks. OPERATING INCOME/(LOSS) Operating loss for the Subscription/PPV TV Group for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was $.3 million compared to $.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998, an improvement of 40%. Operating loss for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 was $2.2 million compared to an operating loss of $3.6 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998, an improvement of 39%. This improvement in operating loss for both the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1999, is primarily due to the increase in revenue combined with an increase in gross profit margin for both periods. Operating expenses increased approximately 23% for both the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1999 compared to December 31, 1998, primarily due to an increase in payroll costs associated with increased hiring as the Company has continued to build the infrastructure 15 necessary for this group and an increase in advertising costs necessary to promote the Company's networks. The Company anticipates that its operating loss will continue to decrease in future periods as its Cable/DBS revenue increases. The Company is aggressively promoting TeN, Pleasure and Extasy and anticipates additional launch commitments in future periods. The Company expects that operating costs will increase in future periods as its expands its marketing efforts and continues the development of its new broadband product, Ten.com. INTERNET GROUP NET REVENUE Net Revenue for the Internet Group was $7.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, a 30% increase from $5.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Net revenue for the Internet Group for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 was $21.6 million, a 53% increase from $14.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. Subscriber membership revenue was $5.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, a 17% increase from $4.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Revenue growth was slowed due to the implementation of more stringent fraud controls to reduce credits and chargebacks. Subscriber memberships increased to 110,000 at December 31, 1999 from 70,000 at December 31, 1998. Subscriber membership revenue was $16.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999, a 57% increase from $10.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. Revenue growth was due to new marketing programs and the addition of a direct sales staff in December 1998. Revenue from flat rate feeds and the sale of traffic was $1.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, a 260% increase from $.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Revenue from flat rate feeds and the sale of traffic was $4.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999, a 207% increase from $1.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. Revenue growth for both the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1999, was the result of focused marketing programs concentrating on promoting the division's website content and reporting systems and the addition of a direct sales staff in December 1998. The Internet Pay-Per-View revenue was $.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 compared to $.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998, an 80% decrease. The Internet Pay-Per-View revenue was $.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999, a 75% decrease from $2.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. This decrease for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1999 was expected as the Internet Pay-Per-View subscribers switched to the group's subscriber membership products. Management expects a slower growth in subscriber membership revenue in the future due to the continued emphasis on fraud control to reduce the level of chargebacks and credits. Revenue from flat rate feeds and sale of traffic should continue to increase in future periods. COST OF SALES Cost of Sales for the Internet Group was $3.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 as compared to $3.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Cost of sales for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 was $11.1 million as compared to $8.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 28%. Cost of sales consists of variable expenses associated with credit card chargebacks, credits, and merchant banking fees; transport; membership acquisition costs and website content. Cost of sales was 49% of revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 and 51% for the nine months ended December 31, 1999. Cost of sales was 62% of revenue for both the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1998. The cost of sales percentage improved in 1999 due to a reduction in communications, bandwidth and merchant banking fees. In addition, credit card chargebacks and credits decreased during the quarter ended December 31, 1999 due to the implementation of tighter fraud controls. Management believes that chargebacks and merchant 16 banking fees may increase in future periods; however, cost of sales as a percentage of revenue is not expected to increase significantly. OPERATING INCOME Operating Income for the Internet Group for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was $1.5 million compared to $.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 275%. Operating income for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 was $3.2 million compared to $.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 357%. This increase in operating income for both the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1999, is primarily due to an increase in revenue combined with an increase in gross profit margin for both periods. Operating expenses increased approximately 16% for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 compared to December 31, 1998 and approximately 52% for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 compared to the nine months ended December 31, 1998. These increases were primarily associated with increased payroll and office facilities costs, an increase in advertising costs necessary to promote the division's websites and, for the nine months ended December 31, 1999, $.4 million of non-recurring costs associated with the sale of the Internet Group to New Frontier Media. PROCESSING GROUP NET REVENUE Net revenue for the Processing Group was $.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, a 100% increase from $.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Net revenue was $.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999, a 250% increase from $.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. Revenue for the Processing Group includes Internet Service Provider ("ISP") charges for website hosting, sale of bandwidth, and merchant processing. Revenue for website hosting and for the sale of bandwidth is expected to increase in future periods as the group completes the upgrade of its ISP facility to a level one data center and adds sales staff to market the ISP capabilities. OPERATING INCOME/LOSS Operating loss for the Processing Group for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was $.3 million, a decrease of 400% from the operating profit of $.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Operating loss for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 was $.1 million, a decrease of 133% from the operating income of $.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. The operating losses for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1999 are a result of the upgrades in process at the ISP facility. These expenses, related primarily to payroll and consulting costs, resulted in additional expenses of $.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 and $.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999. Management expects that the Processing Group will continue to have an operating loss at approximately the same rate as that in the quarter ended December 31, 1999 in future periods until the ISP marketing plan is fully implemented. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of December 31, 1999 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5.7 million. The Company has primarily financed its operations for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 through the issuance of $6.0 million in convertible preferred stock and the exercise of its publicly traded warrants. For the nine months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 cash used in operating activities was $2.3 million and $.5 million respectively. The increase in cash used in operating activities is due to an increase in accounts receivable of $2.0 million related primarily to an increase in the Company's Cable/DBS revenue, an increase in prepaid distribution rights of $1.8 million related to the purchase of the Company's license agreements for its Cable/DBS content, and a decrease in accounts payable of $1.2 million related to a decrease in days in accounts payable. 17 Cash used in investing activities was $4.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 compared to $.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. This use of cash for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 is primarily due to an increase in capital expenditures related to purchases of furniture, computers, improvements made to the trade show booth, purchases of receiver/ decoder equipment, purchase of broadcast equipment, and the purchase of Internet domain Universal Resource Locators (URL's). For the nine months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, net cash provided by financing activities was $8.4 million and $.4 million, respectively. This increase in net cash from financing activities is due primarily to the Company's issuance of $6.0 million of convertible preferred stock as well as to the net proceeds received from the exercise of its publicly traded warrants. The Company's material commitments include the payments required under its operating and capital lease agreements and the repayment of its related party obligations. The Company believes that its existing cash balances together with funds generated from operations will be sufficient to satisfy these obligations. The Company anticipates that capital expenditures will increase during future periods with respect to the following planned investments: 1) the Company will complete the purchase of equipment that was necessary for the expansion of its Colorado-based Broadcast Playout Operations facility, at an estimated remaining cost of $.5 million; 2) the Company will purchase approximately $400,000 of receiver/decoder equipment as additional cable carriage is obtained for its TeN, Pleasure and Extasy networks during the next 12 months; 3) the Company continues to acquire certain Internet domain URL's; and 4) the Company will upgrade its ISP facility to a level one data center at an estimated cost of $2.0 million. The Company anticipates funding this $2.0 million upgrade to its ISP facility through a lease line commitment. As discussed above, the Company issued 600 shares of 7% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock at $10,000 per share to a single institutional investor as of October 14, 1999. The dividends due on this stock are payable in either shares of the Company's common stock or cash. The Company anticipates paying these dividends with shares of its common stock. Under the terms of the agreement, the Preferred Stock may be redeemed in cash by the Holder upon the occurrence of the following triggering events: 1) failure of an underlying shares registration statement to be declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the 180th day after the issue date; 2) lapsing of the effectiveness of the underlying shares registration statement for more than three trading days; 3) failure of the Company's Common Stock to be listed for trading on the NASDAQ or on a subsequent market or the suspension of the Common Stock from trading on the NASDAQ or on a subsequent market for more than three trading days; 4) failure of the Company to deliver certificates representing the underlying shares issuable upon a conversion within ten days of a Conversion Date; 5) the Company is a party to any Change of Control transaction as defined in the agreement; 6) failure to cure a breach of any material term of the agreement within the time frame specified in the agreement; 7) failure to pay in full the amount of cash due pursuant to a Buy-In within seven days after notice is delivered; 8) the Company fails to have available a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to issue upon a conversion; 9) the Company fails to obtain shareholder approval of the IGallery Companies acquisition; and 10) failure of the Company to execute a lock-up agreement with each recipient of the shares of Common Stock received as consideration for the IGallery Companies acquisition. New Frontier Media believes that its existing cash and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to satisfy its short term and long term operating requirements. The Company, however, may not be able to fund the cash necessary to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock if a triggering event were to occur. As previously reported, the Company's continued NASDAQ listing was considered and maintained by the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Council in July, 1999. In accordance with the advice of counsel, the Company had consummated two transactions that were found not to have received advance shareholder approval, as required by the NASD's rules. The Listing Qualifications Panel decision 18 approving continued listing has been under review since then; the Company has made detailed submissions to the NASD Staff and has retained outside experts to assist it in ensuring compliance with these advance shareholder approval requirements. In addition, the Company made full disclosure of these circumstances to its shareholders and received the ratification of over 90% of its shareholders for the two transactions. In the interim, the Company continues to function as a public company, takes every precaution to satisfy NASD regulatory requirements, and believes that it is approaching this issue appropriately. The Company is unable to predict when the NASD may render a decision in this matter, or what that decision will be, but the Company believes that its continued listing is appropriate, and has so advised the NASD. In the event the Company's shares of common stock were to be delisted from the NASDAQ SmallCap Market, the Company's liquidity and capital resources would be materially and adversely affected as the Company's future access to the capital markets would be significantly impaired. In addition, upon any such delisting, the holder of the Company's 7% Series C convertible preferred stock would have the right to require the redemption of its $6 million investment in the Company. The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit filed on January 25, 1999, in which the plaintiff seeks to enforce an alleged agreement by the Company to convey to the plaintiff a 70% equity interest in the Company. The plaintiff is also seeking $10 million in liquidated damages and/or unspecified damages. The Company disputes that there exists a binding and enforceable agreement to transfer any equity interest in New Frontier Media to the plaintiff and filed on February 10, 1999 a motion for partial summary judgement directed to this issue. To date, the court has neither ruled on nor set the Company's motion for a hearing. The Company will continue to vigorously defend itself against the plaintiff's claims. The loss, if any, cannot be estimated at the present time. 19 PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
