OVERVIEW Direct Insite Corp. and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to at times as "Direct Insite" or the "Company"), was organized under the name Unique Ventures, Inc. as a public company, under the laws of the State of Delaware on August 27, 1987. In August, 2000, we changed our name to Direct Insite Corp. which the Board of Directors believed was more in line with our new direction. In March, 2000, Mr. James A. Cannavino was elected a board member and Chairman of the Board. Shortly thereafter, Dr. Dennis Murray, president of Marist College and Mr. Charles Feld, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Feld Group, and Chief Information Officer of First Data Resources and the former Chief Information Officer of Delta Air Lines, were elected to our Board of Directors. In April, 2000, Mrs. Carla J. Steckline, the then attorney general of the state of Kansas, was elected to serve as a member of the Board. As part of the terms and conditions of our financing transaction with Metropolitan Venture Partners II, L.P., a private equity investment firm, ("Metropolitan"), Mr. Peter Yunich, their managing partner, was elected to our Board in September, 2002. In February 2004, Mr. Bernard Puckett, Chairman of the Board of Openwave Systems, Inc. and former Senior Vice President of Strategy and Business Development at IBM, was appointed to our Board, replacing Mr. Feld, who had previously resigned to assume new responsibilities at Electronic Data Systems ("EDS"). Our Current Business We operate primarily as an application service provider ("ASP") and, market an integrated service offering that provides for high volume processing of transactional billing data, electronic bill presentment and payment ("EBP&P").The offering also supports a visual data analysis and reporting tool that is delivered via the Internet. Our core technology is dbExpressTM, a proprietary and patented management information tool, which provides targeted access through the mining of large volumes of transactional data via the Internet. Further, in 2001, we began to provide custom engineering services for our customers. These services have increasingly become a significant source of revenue for us and we believe will continue to increase. Additionally, we believe that this type of service leads to recurring revenue streams similar to our ASP products. 1 This suite of offerings enables us to provide customers with a comprehensive set of services ranging from graphical rendering of transaction records to complex workflow management processes, preliminary bill review, to final invoice presentment with supporting "attached" data items. This comprehensive service offering provides support for Accounts Receivable (AR) and Accounts Payable (AP) back office operations, reduces operating costs and provides for improved customer satisfaction. The Company operates data centers located at the main office in Bohemia, N.Y. and in Newark, NJ. The Direct Insite facility in New Jersey is space leased at an International Business Machines ("IBM"), e-business Hosting Center. This co-location facility and its associated high redundancy feature supports mission critical service level agreements with virtually no down time. IBM, our largest customer, representing more than 97% of our revenue in each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2003, utilizes our products and services to allow their large enterprise customers to mine their respective high volume telecommunications data to determine cost allocation by usage, provide for network planning, budgeting and the identification of significant trends in calling patterns. In addition, we added electronic invoice presentment, payment and analysis capabilities to our services offering all based on our dbExpressTM platform. Since the initial deployment of our principal service, Invoices on Line ("IOL") in the United States geographic area, we have expanded the geographic areas of service coverage to include Canada, South America, and the major European countries. We believe that providing such global coverage uniquely address the global invoice distribution needs of Fortune 500 counties. Recent Financing In December 2003 the Board of Directors authorized us to sell up to 1,500 shares of Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series C Preferred") at $1,000 per share. The holders of Series C Preferred are entitled to dividends, on a cumulative basis, at the rate of 9-1/2% per year, compounded and payable quarterly beginning on October 1, 2005. The holders of Series C Preferred have preference in the payment of dividends and, in the event of liquidation, to all classes of capital stock of the Company except for the Series B Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2003 we had sold 590 shares of Series C Preferred and received proceeds of $590,000 less expenses of $60,000. Subsequent to December 31, 2003, we sold an additional 760 shares for $760,000. Of the total shares sold through March 31, 2004, Metropolitan has purchased 540 shares, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company purchased 200 shares and certain Directors purchased 105 shares. The proceeds were used for working capital purposes. In June 2003, the Company's Board of Directors approved the exchange of the then outstanding obligations to our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Markus & Associates and Tall Oaks Group, LLC for 974 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at an exchange ratio of $1,000 of debt per share ("Price Per Share"). The Series B Preferred was issued as follows: -- 266 shares were exchanged for $266,000 of debt obligation to our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; -- 208 shares were exchanged for $208,000 of debt obligation to Markus & Associates; and -- 500 shares were exchanged for $500,000 of debt obligation to Tall Oaks Group, LLC. Each of the Series B Preferred shares is entitled to mandatory dividends, payable quarterly, commencing on the first day of the calendar quarter after the date of issuance, at the rate of 12% per annum. Additionally, the Series B Preferred shares are redeemable, at the sole option of the Company, on or after March 31, 2005 (or prior to March 31, 2005 with the consent of majority-in-interest holders of Series B Preferred shares). Upon redemption, the holders of the Series B Preferred shall be entitled to receive, for each share of Series B Preferred outstanding, an amount equal to the Price Per Share plus accrued and unpaid dividends. In September 2002, we sold 93,458 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, ("Series A Preferred ") in consideration for $2,000,000 less fees and expenses of $178,000 to Metropolitan. In December 2002, we sold 23,365 shares of its Preferred Stock in consideration for $500,000 less fees and expenses of $61,000, to Metropolitan. The proceeds from this transaction were received January 3, 2003, and, as of December 31, 2002, the principal sum was 2 reflected as stock subscription receivable. In June 2003, we sold 17,857 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in consideration for $250,000 less fees and expenses of $5,000 to Metropolitan. The holders of Preferred Stock ("the Holders") are entitled to dividends, on a cumulative basis, at the rate of 9-1/2% per annum, compounded quarterly and payable on February 1, 2005 and September 25, 2005. The payment of first dividend was originally scheduled for September 25, 2004, however, the Company and the Holders agreed to defer this payment until February 1, 2005. As consideration for the deferral of the dividend payment, the Company agreed to pay the Holders a premium of 7.5% of the dividend. Dividends are payable, at the option of the holders, in cash or in the Company's common stock. Each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into 10 shares of common stock, at the option of the holder. The holders have certain demand and piggyback registration rights, have preference in the event of liquidation, and are entitled to ten votes for each share of Preferred Stock on all matters as to which holders of common stock are entitled to vote. Discontinued Products and Services In 2001 we acquired Platinum Communications, Inc. ("Platinum"), a Dallas, Texas based company, which marketed its integrated proprietary back office software solutions, Account Management Systems ("AMS" or sometimes referred to as "TAMS") to the telecommunications industry either as a license or as an ASP. As a result of the lack of development of the Platinum business and to focus our resources on our core business, in December 2003, we decided to close the operations of Platinum. For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 Platinum incurred losses of $1,912,000 and $797,000, respectively, including a provision for closing costs of $220,000 and impairments of long-lived assets of $352,000 in 2003. The losses are reflected as Loss from Discontinued Operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES We currently operate in one business segment, the Electronic Billing Presentment and Payment ("EBP&P") sector, and, during the years 2003 and 2002, have provided three primary forms of service offerings: EBP&P Application Service Provider ("ASP") Services, AMS or TAMS Services (which have been reclassified to discontinued operations) and professional engineering services. Within the ASP offering we provide two primary services: -- Invoices On Line, an EBP&P offering, and; -- dbExpress, a data visualization and mining service Invoices on Line ---------------- IOL is an advanced web-based electronic invoice presentment, workflow management; reporting and data interrogation/analysis platform designed for large enterprise customers conducting business internationally. Direct Insite's web-based service offering has been operational since 2002 and is currently delivering invoices to users in the Americas - the US, Canada, and South American, - in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) geographic regions including England, Ireland, Germany, Italy and France. Service is also provided to the Nordic, Scandinavian, and Iberian countries. We are planning on supporting additional geographies and languages throughout the course of 2004. From a system user perspective, IOL is operated on behalf of an enterprise that delivers goods and services to a customer. Subsequent to delivery, IOL would be the vehicle for the service provider or "Biller" to present an invoice to the customer, who would become the "Payer" of an invoice. IOL provides the following functions on behalf of the Biller to the customer or Payer: -- Summary View of Invoice. IOL enables the Payer to view a collection of all invoices being presented to the Payer and further allows the payer to view a summary of the amount due for goods and services. This allows the Payer to view the total amount due as well as a summary of the collection of goods and services delivered. 3 -- Complex Presentment. (Data centric views). Historically, paper invoices have been used by Billers as the primary vehicle to communicate the types of goods and services delivered to customers. Because of the fundamental limitations of the amount of detail that could be present in a "single sheet" paper invoice, there was a general lack of detail provided to the customers. The result of the absence of detail resulted in calls to the biller in order to obtain more information. IOL is based on a hierarchical data structure that allows the user the convenience of seeing a high level summary of all invoices or to "drill down" on any given invoice or any line item of an invoice. This "Data- centric" model conveniently supports high level summary or low level explanatory information to satisfy the customers needs to understand and pay the invoice. -- Data Mining and Visualization. Another benefit of data-centricity is the ability to utilize the dbExpress data mining technology across the entire enterprise to analyze line item detail information - not just a single operating unit or limited geographical area of the business. Additionally, IOL provides a significant archiving capability such that 12 to 24 months of historical invoicing/charges can be data mined for trend and optimization opportunities. The results of the mining activity are presented in a highly visualized manner to the user. -- Notification. Email notification is used to provide invoice alerts, disputes, workflow, administration, invoice status and payment timing. -- Multi-tiered Accounts. This capability is used for allocating portions of an invoice across complex, payer organizational structures with multiple levels of management and associated viewing rights and/or privileges often found in large enterprise accounts. -- Workflow Management. Enables the user to electronically route the invoice through the approval chain; passing the designated portions of an invoice to necessary parties for approval. This will also assist the user's ability to verify whether the approving parties have received the invoice and if the portion has been reviewed, approved or disputed.. -- Dispute Management. This capability supports the ability of the customer/payer to dispute a charge at the invoice level of at the level of any line time within the invoice. Once invoked, the billing dispute function provides for automatic "forms fill" of the information related to the dispute and automatically routes the dispute to the appropriate customer support organization. -- Payment and Remittance. This facility supports multiple payment options such as full payment, schedule payment and auto payment. The system also supports balance-forward accounting or open invoice accounting. Pre- scheduled payments are also supported by the system. -- Billing Inquiry (or Trouble Ticket). The process of customer or payer registering a disagreement with a given line item of the invoice or simply needing to require a clarification of additional supporting data is supported through the Billing Inquiry function". -- Report Capabilities. Users can track orders, disputes, billing inquires, payments and system usage. This reporting function is driven by an online analytical processing (OLAP) tool that plugs into the user's database. This text reporting capability complements the graphical representation of results that is the output of the dbExpress data- mining tool. dbExpress Background dbExpress has been in use in various forms for more than ten years. The Windows Version 1.0 of dbExpressTM was introduced in December, 1993, and the DOS version was introduced in late 1992. Windows Version 2.0, with significantly enhanced functionality based on user feedback, was introduced in the second quarter of 1994 and a Windows 95(R) Version was introduced in the third quarter of 1995. Windows NT(R), Internet Server and JAVA Applet versions were introduced in 1996 and 1997. Version 6.0 was released during the fourth quarter of 1999; significant new features include increasing the ability to interactively access, via the Internet, millions of records in a matter of seconds. 4 dbExpress is a software tool which assists end users in the retrieval and visualization of all types of data. It allows customers to access and analyze high volumes of technical and account information. With the patented data mining technology found in dbExpress, high volumes of detailed information is presented in our unique interface known as a "Filescape". With dbExpress, the customer may create a graph, report, or simply list the customer information for easy viewing. dbExpress simplifies the preparation of traditional reports by giving the customer the ability to view the billing data interactively using simple point-and-click mouse operation. With dbExpress, the customer is given the ability to drill down into the call detail information allowing the customer to identify data trends and "cause and effect" relationships in an interactive, graphical format. Addresses Internet Bandwidth Limitations dbExpress is a data analysis tool that addresses a major Internet problem, that of high data volume and limited bandwidth. This limitation is currently responsible for the lengthy delays associated with data downloading. dbExpress is a web based reporting and analysis system that was introduced to deliver all of the functionality of dbExpress for the desktop with the advantages of managing the monthly call detail records on a centralized information server that is accessible via the World Wide Web. The Web based information delivery via the Internet is preferable to CD-ROM because, in most instances, large volumes of hard drive space are required. dbExpress runs in common web browsers such as Internet Explorer 5.X (and newer versions) plus Netscape Navigator 4.X (and newer versions). This enables the ability to interact with and report on large monthly billing period data via remote Internet access. Advantages of dbExpress All Data Indexed - Unlike traditional database products, dbExpress precomputes data access indexes associated with all data relationships of interest. This eliminates the need to compute such access mechanisms on a case by case basis. The users of dbExpress are free to "question" the data base across a wide range of relationships and massive amounts of data with far less time delay as compared to the standard data base query systems. Furthermore, the presentment of the "search results" is in the form of graphical "filescapes" that can be "visually drilled down" to further understand the information relationships. Graphics Driven - The data is delivered via the Internet with simple browser technology thereby allowing an authorized Internet user to manipulate huge databases in seconds. High Power / Low Cost - dbExpressTM enables users to analyze millions of records over the Internet without the need to first download the data being analyzed. Better Access to Information - dbExpressTM improves the accessibility to databases created by database management systems (DBMS) by eliminating the need to write queries in computer code and facilitates data searches through the use of graphical query tools. We believe that this results in more timely and better quality business decision-making. Broader Access to Information. - dbExpressTM enables a broader population within an organization to visually and interactively mine data without the need or support from internal or external management information system (MIS) professionals. dbExpressTM performs these tasks faster than conventional data base systems because the various paths to access the data are calculated one time when the data in loaded into dbExpress as compared to traditional approach of waiting until the user asks for a given type of data and the access path is computed when requested and not in advance. Ease of Use - dbExpressTM utilizes simple "point-and-click" navigation approach, which enables the user to view and analyze data to the lowest level of detail. dbExpressTM provides powerful desktop functionality, via the Internet, that allows the exploration of data patterns, trends, and exceptions. Data searches, queries and analyses can be converted to sophisticated, simple to use presentations providing integrated business graphics and report writing capabilities. 5 Interfaces With Leading Databases and Other Tools - dbExpressTM provides direct access to leading databases created by Data Base Management Systems (DBMS) vendors and can be exported to popular spreadsheets, report writers, graphics packages and word processors. Integrates Data From Multiple Vendors - When dbExpressTM reads a database, it creates its own summaries of information through a proprietary process. Information contained in databases is formatted into d.b.Express's proprietary format. This permits users to access and compare information contained in enterprise-wide databases created by different vendors simultaneously in the d.b.Express' user-friendly environment. Works in Common Operating Environments - dbExpressTM operates in virtually all file server and peer-to-peer networking environments providing secure visual data mining functionality through Internet browsers. High Processing Speed - Once a database source has been processed, dbExpressTM employs proprietary matrix storage technology rather than rereading each data element in that database. The elimination of this rereading step increases the speed of data access enabling ad-hoc analysis at a rate that has been demonstrated to be far faster than possible with any other system. Security, Access and Storage - In order to meet the archival requirements of customers, the Company produces CDs of each month's billing details. In order to provide this service, the Company has put into place a fully redundant data center. The archive service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Historically, our primary product offering was dbExpress, the visual data analysis platform described for use by Fortune 500 companies to consolidate communications traffic for the purpose of system analysis and contract compliance. The telecommunication offerings were expanded with the acquisition of a telecommunications asset management system suite of back office communications management software products. This suite of offerings provided the capability to manage complex high volume communications services within the large enterprise; work flow management, service provisioning, transaction rating, billing and analysis, A/R and cash application and electronic intra/inter company invoicing. During 2001, we enhanced our service offerings by combining electronic invoice presentment and payment functionality with dbExpress. This combination provides Internet-based services to customers in the form of an electronic invoice capable of delivering both summary and detailed billing information with the ability to data mine high volume of internet transactions that large companies generate. This "data centric" approach is a significant departure from the industry standard "document centric" approach that delivered print stream images over the Internet and not the line item detail. This approach, and the addition of payment capabilities, formed the basis for our enhanced Electronic Bill Presentment and Payment offering referred to as Invoices on Line which was brought to market in 2002. This combined set of services has allowed Direct Insite to significantly expand its market opportunities to include any large enterprise in a given industry sector that seeks to provide their customers with an electronic invoice with the associated line item detail information with the associated reports and data mining capabilities. Previously, all of the electronic reporting and analysis capabilities of dbExpress were being delivered in support of the traditional paper-based billing system. For simple or low volume detail accounts, electronically delivered invoices are primarily a reproduction of the print stream. We believe that electronic invoices delivered to large enterprise customers require the ability to deliver all of the line item detail to support the summary billing information as well as the tools necessary to mine that data. IOL offers to this market electronic presentation of invoices along with the tools to verify the detail behind the invoice. The Direct Insite offering is a "data centric" solution built on delivering summary billing information constructed from the underlying detail data contained in an underlying database. Because the supporting detail information, analysis and reporting tools are made available to the end user, costs are reduced for both the provider and customer while improving customer service through customer self care. We believe that this is a critical component and a compelling reason to encourage potential customers to adopt our electronic invoice presentment and payment service. 6 The Company now has a complete systems management solution called TAMS or telecommunications asset management system based on the control of a single database, all of the functionality required to manage the back office workflow and the high volume information delivery system for demanding enterprise accounts that includes EBP&P. The acquisition of Platinum and their AMS carrier management system in May 2001 provided us with the complementary software products and telecommunications industry management experience to offer the necessary software tools to process the high volume of telecommunication switch data to the electronically presented invoice complete with data mining - all on an outsourced business model. SALES AND MARKETING CHANNELS TO MARKET We have two primary channels to market - direct through our sales representatives and indirect through channel and strategic partners. These channels are supported by a technical sales support group. Direct ------ We have increased our direct sales resources to include three full time sales representatives. In addition, our directors and executives are involved in new client development and the establishment of channel partnerships. Indirect -------- We are pursuing both reseller and strategic partner relationships to further develop existing account relationships and to increase market coverage. These relationships can also expand our offerings, therefore we are seeking to establish partnerships with other companies that offer complementary products and services such as supply chain management and payment services. The use of the indirect channel provides access to the additional engineering and professional resources required to implement our EBP&P service offering. IBM RESELLER AGREEMENT The Company signed a reseller agreement with IBM on August 4, 2003. This agreement provides IBM with the ability to sell the Invoice on Line service offering to its customers. The Company supports this sales activity by providing Subject Matter Experts (SME's) to assist the IBM sales organization. Technical Sales Support and Post-Sales Account Management We have a pre-sales support staff and add post sales support to the existing account management group as we secure new business. This group is responsible for technical sales presentations, developing proposals and pricing, contract administration and then account management upon completion. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT The computer software industry is characterized by rapid technological change, which requires ongoing development and maintenance of software products. It is customary for modifications to be made to a software product as experience with its use grows or changes in manufacturers' hardware and software so require. We believe that our research and development staff, many with extensive experience in the industry, represents a significant competitive advantage. As of March 31, 2004, our research and development group consists of 21 employees. Further, when needed, we retain the services of independent professional consultants. We seek to recruit highly qualified employees, and our ability to attract and retain such employees is expected to be a principal factor in our success in maintaining a leading technological position. For the two years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, research and development expenses were approximately $3,201,000, and $3,903,000, respectively, including $561,000 and $673,000 for 2003 and 2002, respectively, that are included in Loss from Discontinued Operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. We believe that investments in research and development are required in order to remain competitive. 7 COMPETITION We believe our primary competitors are: Avolent is a privately held San Francisco based provider of enterprise software for Financial Relationship Management (FRM) that include electronic invoice presentment and payment (EIPP), online account management, process management, enterprise employee access, and decision support.

In addition, we received a patent for the proprietary aspects of our dbExpress technology in 1994, and a second, expanded patent on that technology in 1995, which broadened the claims regarding the product's graphical interface and indexing. No assurance can be given that our patents and copyrights will effectively protect us from any copying or emulation of our products in the future. We also rely on proprietary knowledge and employ various methods, including confidentiality agreements, to protect our software codes, concepts, ideas and documentation of our proprietary technology. Despite these efforts, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products, obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary or misappropriate our copyrights, trademarks, trade dress and similar proprietary rights. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. Our means of protecting our proprietary rights may not be adequate. In addition, our competitors might independently develop similar technology or duplicate our products or circumvent any patents or our other intellectual property rights. Item 2.

All prior issuances of equity securities during the past three years have been previously reported. Item 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION ------------------------------------------------------------------ Overview Direct Insite Corp. and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to at times as "Direct Insite" or the "Company"), was organized under the name Unique Ventures, Inc. as a public company, under the laws of the State of Delaware on August 27, 1987. In August, 2000, we changed our name to Direct Insite Corp. which the Board of Directors believed was more in line with our new direction. In March, 2000, Mr. James A. Cannavino was elected a board member and Chairman of the Board. Shortly thereafter Dr. Dennis Murray, president of Marist College and Mr. Charles Feld, Chief Information Officer of First Data Resources and the former Chief Information Officer of Delta Air Lines, were elected to our board. In April, 2000, Mrs. Carla J. Steckline, the then attorney general of the state of Kansas, was elected to serve as a member of the Board. As part of the terms and conditions of our financing transaction with Metropolitan Venture Partners II, L.P., a private equity investment firm, ("Metropolitan"), Mr. Peter Yunich, their managing partner, was elected to our Board in September, 2002. In February 2004, Mr. Bernard Puckett, Chairman of the Board of Openwave Systems, Inc. and former Senior Vice President of Strategy and Business Development at IBM was appointed to our Board, replacing Mr. Feld who assumed new responsibilities at Electronic Data Systems ("EDS"). We primarily operate as an application service provider ("ASP") and, market an integrated "fee for services" offering providing high volume processing of transactional data for billing purposes, electronic bill presentation and payment ("EBP&P") as well as visual data analysis and reporting tools delivered via the Internet for our customers. Our core technology is dbExpressTM, the proprietary and patented management information tool, which provides targeted access through the mining of large volumes of transactional data via the Internet. Further, in 2001, we began to provide custom engineering services for our customers. These services have increasingly become a significant source of revenue for us and we believe will continue to increase. Additionally, we believe that this type of service leads to recurring revenue streams similar to our ASP products. This newly assembled suite of services enables us to provide a comprehensive Internet delivered service from the raw transaction record through all of the internal workflow management processes including an electronically delivered invoice with customer analytics. This comprehensive service offering provides back office operations, cuts costs and provides for improved customer service by providing the end customer with easy access to all of the detailed information about their bill. We operate fully redundant data centers located at our main office in Bohemia, N.Y. and in Newark, NJ. Our facility in New Jersey is space leased at an International Business Machines ("IBM"), e-business Hosting Center. This co-location / redundancy feature enables us to offer virtually down time free service. Currently, IBM, our largest customer, representing approximately 97% of our revenue in each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2003, utilizes our products and services to allow their large enterprise customers to mine their respective high volume telecommunications data to determine cost allocation by usage, provide for network planning, budgeting and the identification of significant trends in calling patterns. In addition, we added electronic invoice presentment, payment and analysis capabilities to our services offering all based on our dbExpressTM platform. 11 Discontinued Operations In 2001 we acquired Platinum Communications, Inc. ("Platinum"), a Dallas, Texas based company, which marketed its integrated proprietary back office software solutions, Account Management Systems ("AMS" or sometimes referred to as "TAMS") to the telecommunications industry either as a license or as an ASP. As a result of the lack of development of the Platinum business and to focus our resources on our core business, in December 2003 we decided to close the operations of Platinum. For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 Platinum incurred net losses of $1,912,000 and $797,000, respectively, including a provision for closing costs of $220,000 and impairments of long-lived assets of $352,000 in 2003. The losses are reflected as Loss from Discontinued Operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Recent Financing In December 2003 the Board of Directors authorized us to sell up to 1,500 shares of Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series C Preferred") at $1,000 per share. The holders of Series C Preferred are entitled to dividends, on a cumulative basis, at the rate of 9.5% per year, compounded and payable quarterly beginning on October 1, 2005. The holders of Series C Preferred have preference in the payment of dividends and, in the event of liquidation, to all classes of capital stock of the Company except for the Series B Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2003 we had sold 590 shares of Series C Preferred and received proceeds of $590,000 less expenses of $60,000. Subsequent to December 31, 2003 we have sold an additional 760 shares for $760,000. Of the total shares sold to March 31, 2004, Metropolitan has purchased 540 shares and the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company has purchased 200 shares. The proceeds were used for working capital purposes. In June 2003, the Company's Board of Directors approved the exchange of the then outstanding obligations to our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Markus & Associates and Tall Oaks Group, LLC for 974 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at an exchange ratio of $1,000 of debt per share ("Price Per Share"). The Series B Preferred was issued as follows: -- 266 shares were exchanged for $266,000 of debt obligation to our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; -- 208 shares were exchanged for $208,000 of debt obligation to Markus & Associates; and -- 500 shares were exchanged for $500,000 of debt obligation to Tall Oaks Group, LLC ("Tall Oaks"). Each of the Series B Preferred shares is entitled to mandatory dividends, payable quarterly, commencing on the first day of the calendar quarter after the date of issuance, at the rate of 12% per annum. Additionally, the Series B Preferred shares are redeemable, at the sole option of the Company, on or after March 31, 2005 (or prior to March 31, 2005 with the consent of majority-in-interest holders of Series B Preferred shares). Upon redemption, the holders of the Series B Preferred shall be entitled to receive, for each share of Series B Preferred outstanding, an amount equal to the Price Per Share plus accrued and unpaid dividends. In September 2002, the Company sold 93,458 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, ("Series A Preferred ") in consideration for $2,000,000 less fees and expenses of $178,000 to Metropolitan , a private equity investment firm. In December 2002, the Company sold 23,365 shares of its Preferred Stock in consideration for $500,000 less fees and expenses of $61,000, to Metropolitan. The proceeds from this transaction were received January 3, 2003, and, as of December 31, 2002, the principal sum was reflected as stock subscription receivable. In June 2003, the Company sold 17,857 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in consideration for $250,000 less fees and expenses of $5,000 to Metropolitan. The holders of Preferred Stock ("the Holders") are entitled to dividends, on a cumulative basis, at the rate of 9.5% per annum, compounded quarterly and payable on February 1, 2005 and September 25, 2005.The payment of first dividend was originally scheduled for September 25, 2003, however, the Company and the Holders agreed to defer this payment until February 1, 2005. As consideration for the deferral of the dividend payment, the Company agreed to pay the Holders a premium of 7.5% of the dividend. Dividends are payable, at the option of the holders, in cash or in the Company's common stock. Each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into 10 shares of common stock, at the option of the holder. The holders have certain demand and piggyback registration rights, have preference in the event of liquidation, and are entitled to ten votes for each share of Preferred Stock on all matters as to which holders of common stock are entitled to vote. 12 Seasonality/Quantity Fluctuations Revenue from managed services generally is not subject to fluctuations or seasonal flows. However, we believe that revenue derived from custom engineering, will have a significant tendency to fluctuate. Other factors including, but not limited to, new product introductions, domestic and international economic conditions, customer budgetary considerations, the timing of product upgrades, and fee recognition in connection with our telecommunications services may create fluctuations. As a result of the foregoing factors, our operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period. Financial Condition and Liquidity For the year ended December 31, 2003, we incurred a loss from continuing operations of $3,270,000 compared to a loss from continuing operations of $6,114,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002, an improvement of $2,844,000 or 47%. We used $2,444,000 in cash for operations in 2003 (including cash used for discontinued operations of $1,012,000) compared to $2,736,000 in 2002, an improvement of $292,000 or 11%. We funded the shortfall in cash from operations through a combination of sales of common and preferred stock totaling $1,362,000 less fees and expenses of $83,000, borrowings under two lines of credit totaling $750,000 and a loan from Tall Oaks of $500,000 less fees of $4,000. As discussed above, the loan from Tall Oaks was exchanged for 500 shares of Series B Preferred stock. In addition, we used cash on hand at the beginning of the year of $620,000. As noted above, cash used in operations for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $2,444,000, consisting of the net loss $5,182,000, including the loss from discontinued operations, offset by non-cash expenses of $873,000, including depreciation and amortization of $686,000 and common stock and options issued for services valued at $135,000. The net loss is further offset by a decrease in operating assets of $180,000, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $755,000 and an increase in other liabilities of $30,000. Additionally, cash used in operations was reduced by the decrease in net assets attributable to discontinued operations of $900,000. Cash used in investing activities was $349,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared to $753,000 for the previous year. This was principally expenditures for property and equipment in 2003, compared to $418,000 expended for property and equipment in 2002. Additionally, in 2002, we made advances to and investments in Voyant Corporation of $674,000 and realized proceeds from the sale of NetWolves Corporation common stock of $377,000. Cash from financing activities totaled $2,248,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared to $2,769,000 in the prior year. We received net proceeds from the sale of Series C Preferred stock of $530,000, net proceeds from the sales of Series A Preferred of $235,000 and the collection of the Series A Preferred stock subscription of $492,000. In addition, we borrowed $750,000 under two lines of credit from two banks as detailed in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. We also received a loan from Tall Oaks of $500,000 less expenses of $4,000. This loan was exchanged for Series B Preferred stock as discussed above. We also repaid $142,000 of long-term debt and capital lease obligations in 2003. Advances from a bank for receivables financing decrease by $105,000 in 2003 primarily the result of obtaining working capital from other sources as discussed here. In addition, we paid $30,000 for dividends on the Preferred Series B shares. The proceeds of these new financings were used for working capital. Management's Liquidity and Financing Plans In order to meet our cash needs and to achieve positive operating cash flows we have and will continue to take various actions and steps that we believe will enable us to attain these goals. These actions include: 13 -- In the second half of 2003 we embarked on a major cost reduction program, including among other things, staff reductions, pay rate reductions, and elimination of non-essential expenses. We believe that this will reduce our operating costs in excess of $1.6 million on an annual basis. We believe these cost reductions have already begun to have a positive impact on our operating performance. We note that it is our intent to reinstate the pay rate reductions as soon as practical and our operating results and cash flows permit -- As discussed above in December 2003 we closed the operations of our Platinum subsidiary. Platinum had experienced losses and had significant cash needs. We estimate that this action will reduce our operating costs in excess of $1,200,000 annually. -- We intend to raise additional capital through private equity offerings and borrowing. In this regard in December 2003, as discussed above, we initiated the sale of Series C Preferred stock and as of December 31, 2003 had net proceeds from these sales of $530,000. Subsequent to December 31, 2003 and through March 15, 2004 we received an additional $760,000 from sales of this issue. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to raise additional capital through equity sales and/or borrowing. -- We continue to strive to increase our revenue through offering custom engineering services, expanding and enhancing our existing product offerings such as IOL, and introducing new product offerings. In 2003 our revenues from continuing operations increased $827,000 or 12.5% over revenues in 2002. For the first quarter 2004 we anticipate that our revenue from continuing operations will exceed revenue for the same period in 2003 by more than 10%. -- We continue to expand our marketing efforts in order to increase our customer base. In this regard, in 2003, we became a business partner with IBM and through this relationship will work with IBM to achieve sales to new customers. We will continue to pursue similar channel partner opportunities. We believe that our plans and new initiatives as discussed above will lead to positive cash flows and profitability. While we pursue these goals we also believe that our ability to raise additional capital through equity and debt placements will provide sufficient cash to meet our requirements at least through December 31, 2004. There can be no assurance, however, that we will achieve our cash flow and profitability goals, or that we will be able to raise additional capital sufficient to meet our operating expenses or implement our plan. In such event, we may have to revise our plans and significantly reduce our operating expenses, which could have an adverse effect on revenue and operations in the short term. Results of Operations IBM continues to be our largest customer accounting for 97% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003, as compared to 98% for the year ended December 31, 2002. We derive revenue from IBM from the sale of managed services (ASP) as well as custom engineering. During the second half of 2001, we entered into an agreement with IBM wherein for a per transaction fee, we enable IBM to present invoices to a portion of its customers via the Internet. Our Invoicing On Line is an electronic invoice presentment and payment system ("EIP&P") offering and has been expanded to include additional functionality. In March 2002, the parties signed a new agreement, which allows IBM to expand this EIP&P offering to more of its customers, both domestic and international. In addition, the Company continues to provide data analysis and reporting services for IBM's telecommunications customers. We are actively pursuing new sales opportunities to reduce sales concentration. For the year ended December 31, 2003 revenue from continuing operations increased by $827,000 or 12.5% to $7,439,000 compared to revenue from continuing operations of $6,612,000 in 2002. The increase is primarily due to an increase in ongoing ASP services, particularly of $1,043,000 off set by a slight decrease in custom engineering fees of $216,000. The increase in revenue from ASP 14 services was the result of implementing new ASP services and an increase in continuing IOL services. In 2003 we expanded the IOL service into eight countries in Europe and Brazil. We believe that this service will be deployed in additional countries in Europe, the Middle East and the Pacific Rim in 2004. We also implemented the ASP service, Customer Presentable Invoice ("CPI"), in the United States in 2003. We expect this product to be deployed into additional countries in 2004. The decrease in engineering fees resulted from completing certain engineering projects that resulted in the increase in ASP services. We expect that new projects begun in late 2003 and new projects in 2004 will lead to an increase in custom engineering revenue in 2004 and additional increases in ASP services. Costs of operations, research and development increased by $409,000 (10.4%) to $4,328,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared to the costs in 2002. These costs consist principally of salaries and related expenses for software developers, programmers, custom engineers, network services, and quality control and assurance. Also included are network costs, costs of the production co-location facility and other expenses directly related to our custom engineering and ASP production services. The increase in costs is principally due to increases in staffing costs of $440,000 offset by reductions in costs for software and supplies of $40,000. All other operating expenses increased approximately $9,000 net. Sales and marketing costs were $2,222,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003, an increase of $174,000 or 8.5% over the same costs in 2002. Salaries increased by $561,000 primarily due to the reassignment of personnel from the administrative area and the employment of personnel that were previously engaged as consultants. This increase is offset by a decrease in consulting fees of $318,000, travel expenses of $65,000 and other sales expenses of $4,000 net. General and administrative costs decreased $416,000 or 11.2% to $3,285,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared to costs of $3,701,000 in 2002. Salaries and related costs decreased $93,000 principally due to a decrease of $322,000 as a result of the reassignment of personnel to sales and marketing, offset by an increase of $275,000 due to the full-time engagement of the Chief Executive Officer and other staff additions. Group benefits and other personnel related costs decreased in the net amount of $46,000. Other reductions in administrative costs included $395,000 resulting from the reduction in consulting and professional fees, $146,000 in costs related to the Board of Directors, and reductions in travel expenses of $208,000. This was offset by increases in rent of $141,000, and relocation expenses of $63,000 all principally related to the hiring of new employees. Legal fees increased $165,000 primarily due to services related to financial reporting and employee related matters. All other general and administrative costs had a net increase of $57,000. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $103,000 (13%) primarily due to fully amortizing certain software costs and other computer equipment. Interest expense increased by $89,000 due to the increase in borrowings under two new lines of credit and an increase in borrowings through the assignment of accounts receivable under the agreement with a bank. We also received a refund of federal taxes of $108,000 in 2003. Net Operating Loss Carry Forwards --------------------------------- At December 31, 2003, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") remaining of approximately $77 million, which may be available to reduce taxable income, if any. These NOLs expire through 2023. However, Internal Revenue Code Section 382 rules limit the utilization of NOLs upon a change in control of a company. The Company has not completed a recent evaluation of whether a change in control has taken place. If it is determined that a change in control has taken place, utilization of its NOLs will be subject to severe limitations in future periods, which would have the effect of eliminating substantially all of the future income tax benefits of the NOLs. 15 New Accounting Pronouncements ----------------------------- In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities", an Interpretation of ARB No. 51. FIN 46 expands upon and strengthens existing accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include in its financial statements the assets, liabilities and activities of another entity. A variable interest entity is any legal structure used for business purposes that either does not have equity investors with voting rights or has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. However, in December 2003, FASB deferred the latest date by which all public entities, which meet the definition of small business issuer under SEC Regulation S-B, must apply FIN 46 to the first interim or annual reporting period ended after December 15, 2004. The effect of the adoption of this new accounting pronouncement is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. . In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity," which establishes standards for how an entity that issues financial instruments (or may be required under the terms of a financial instrument to issue its equity shares) classifies and measures in its statement of financial position certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. Item 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ---------------------------- The financial statements are included beginning on page F-1 Item 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ----------------------------------------------------- ON ACCOUNTNG AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE ------------------------------------- None. Item 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have supervised and participated in an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days of the date of this report, and, based on their evaluations, they believe that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. As a result of the evaluation, there were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. 16 PART III Item 9.

20 The hypothetical value of the options as of their date of grant has been calculated using the Black- Scholes option-pricing model, as permitted by SEC rules, based upon various assumptions, which include: expected volatility of 67.7%, risk free interest rate of 4.8% and expected lives of 5.00 years. The approach used in developing the assumptions upon which the Black-Scholes valuations were calculated is consistent with the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation." It should be noted that this model is only one method of valuing options, and the Company's use of the model should not be interpreted as an endorsement of its accuracy. The actual value of the options may be significantly different, and the value actually realized, if any, will depend upon the excess of the market value of the common stock over the option exercise price at the time of exercise.

F-8 DIRECT INSITE CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - Nature of Business Direct Insite Corp. and subsidiaries (the "Company"), primarily operate as an application service provider ("ASP"), which markets an integrated "fee for services" offering providing high volume processing of transactional data for billing purposes, electronic bill presentation and payment as well as visual data analysis and reporting tools delivered via the Internet for its customers. The Company's core technology is d.bExpressTM, the proprietary and patented management information tool, which provides targeted access through the mining of large volumes of transactional data via the Internet. During 2001, the Company began providing custom engineering services to its customers. These product offerings enable the Company to provide comprehensive services from the raw transaction record through all of the internal workflow management processes including an electronically delivered invoice with customer analytics. The Company operates fully redundant data centers located at its main office in Bohemia, N.Y. and in Newark, NJ. Management's liquidity plans are discussed in Note 14. Also, as described in Note 17, the Company has one major customer that accounted for approximately 97% of the Company's revenue for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2003. Loss of this customer would have a material adverse effect on the Company. NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Direct Insite Corp. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Revenue Recognition The Company records revenue in accordance with Statement of Position 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition", issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (as modified by Statement of Position 98-9) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." In some circumstances, the Company enters into arrangements whereby it is obligated to deliver to its customer multiple products and/or services (multiple deliverables). In these transactions, in accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-21, the Company allocates the total revenue to be earned among the various elements based on their relative fair values. The Company recognizes revenue related to the delivered products or services only if: -- Any undelivered products or services are not essential to the functionality of the delivered products or services; -- Payment for the delivered products or services is not contingent upon delivery of the remaining products or services; -- The Company has an enforceable claim to receive the amount due in the event it does not deliver the undelivered products or services and it is probable that such amount is collectible; -- There is evidence of the fair value for each of the undelivered products or services; F-9 DIRECT INSITE CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued -- Delivery of the delivered element represents the culmination of the earnings process. The following are the specific revenue recognition policies for each major category of revenue. ASP Services The Company provides transactional data processing services to its customers. Revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Custom Engineering Services The Company recognizes revenue for custom engineering services using the percentage of completion method. Progress is measured using the relative fair value of specifically identifiable output measures (milestones). Revenue is recognized when the customer accepts such milestones. Costs related to uncompleted milestones are deferred and included in other current assets, when applicable. Cost of Revenue Cost of revenue in the consolidated statements of operations is presented along with research and development costs and exclusive of amortization and depreciation shown separately. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the respective leases or the service lives of the related assets, whichever is shorter. Capitalized lease assets are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the service life of the related assets. Software Costs Costs associated with the development of software products are generally capitalized once technological feasibility is established. Purchased software technologies are recorded at cost and software technologies acquired in purchase business transactions are recorded at their estimated fair value. Software costs are amortized using the greater of the ratio of current revenue to total projected revenue for a product or the straight-line method over its estimated useful life. Amortization of software costs begins when products become available for general customer release. Costs incurred prior to establishment of technological feasibility are expensed as incurred and are included in "operations, research and development" in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, and amount to $2,640,000 and $3,230,000 for the years 2003 and 2002, respectively. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including capitalized software costs and property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine if impairment exists, the Company compares the estimated future undiscounted cash flows from the related long-lived assets to the net carrying amount of such assets. Once it has been determined that impairment exists, the carrying value of the asset is adjusted to fair value. Factors considered in the determination of fair value include current operating results, trends and the present value of estimated expected future cash flows. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" became effective for the Company during 2002. The provisions of this statement that are applicable to the Company were implemented on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2002, and had no material effect on the Company's financial statements. F-10 DIRECT INSITE CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. The liability method requires the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates. Additionally, net deferred tax assets are adjusted by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax assets will not be realized. Earnings per Share The Company displays earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share include the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Outstanding stock options, warrants and other potential stock issuances have not been considered in the computation of diluted earnings per share amounts since the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Securities that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share ("EPS") in the future, that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented, consist of the following (shares are in thousands):
2003 2002 ---- ---- Options to purchase common stock 4,442 2,259 Warrants to purchase common stock 631 -- Series A Convertible Preferred Stock 1,347 1,168 ----- ----- Total Potential Common Shares as of December 31, 2003 6,420 3,427 ===== ===== Issuances after December 31, 2003 through March 31, 2004 Common stock 188 Options to purchase common stock -- Warrants to purchase common stock 807 ----- 995 =====
Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Allowance For Doubtful Accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects management's best estimate of probable losses inherent in the account receivable balance. Management determines the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience, and other currently available evidence. F-11 DIRECT INSITE CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued Marketable Securities Marketable securities, which are classified as "available for sale", are valued at fair market value. Unrealized gains or losses are recorded net of income taxes as accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders' (deficiency) equity, whereas realized gains and losses are recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations using the first-in, first- out method. Other-than-temporary declines in the value of marketable securities are also recognized as a loss in the consolidated statements of operations. Advertising and Promotional Costs Advertising and promotional costs are reported in "Sales and marketing" expense in the consolidated statements of operations and are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 was $4,000 and NONE, respectively. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated financial statements shown for the prior year in order to have them conform to the current year's classifications. Concentrations and Fair Value of Financial Instruments Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. At December 31, 2003, the Company has cash investments of approximately $63,000 at one bank. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are disclosed in Note 17. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and, generally, requires no collateral from its customers. Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of financial instruments approximates their recorded value. Use of Estimates In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Disclosures that are particularly sensitive to estimation include management's plans, as disclosed in Note 14. Actual results could differ from those estimates. New Accounting Pronouncements In January 2003 and amended in December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"), an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51. FIN 46 expands upon and strengthens existing accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include in its financial statements the assets, liabilities and activities of another entity. A variable interest entity is any legal structure used for business purposes that either does not have equity investors with voting rights or has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. However, in December 2003, FASB deferred the latest date by which all public entities, which meet the definition of small business issuer under SEC Regulation S-B, must apply FIN 46 to the first interim or annual reporting period ended after December 15, 2004. The effect of the adoption of this new accounting pronouncement is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. F-12 DIRECT INSITE CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued New Accounting Pronouncements, continued In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity," which establishes standards for how an entity that issues financial instruments (or may be required under the terms of a financial instrument to issue its equity shares) classifies and measures in its statement of financial position certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Stock Options and Similar Equity Instruments At December 31, 2003, the Company had five stock-based employee plans, which are described more fully in Note 10. As permitted under SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure", which amended SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", the Company has elected to continue to follow the intrinsic value method in accounting for its stock-based employee compensation arrangements as defined by Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations including FASB Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation", an interpretation of APB No. 25. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and net loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation (in thousands, except per share data):
2003 2002 ---- ---- Net loss attributable to common shareholders As reported $(5,538) $(6,967) Add: Stock-based employee compensation expense included in reported net loss 4 -- Less: Stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value-based method for all awards (1,513) (866) ------- ------- Pro forma $(7,047) $(7,833) ======= ======= Basic and diluted net loss per share As reported $(1.39) $(1.91) ======= ======= Pro forma $(1.77) $(2.15) ======= =======
The fair value of Company common stock options granted to employees are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 62.7% to 72.3% in 2003 and 67.7% to 74.5% in 2002 (2) risk-free interest rates of 4.8% in 2003 and 2002 and (3) expected lives of 1.2 years to 5 years in 2003 and 2.3 years to 5.0 years in 2002. NOTE 3 - Discontinued Operations Platinum Communications, Inc. In 2001, the Company and Platinum Communications, Inc. ("Platinum") completed a merger under an Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Merger Agreement"). Under the Merger Agreement, a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Platinum. F-13 DIRECT INSITE CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 3 - Discontinued Operations, continued Platinum Communications, Inc., continued The purchase price of Platinum approximated $340,000, which consisted of $50,000, and 66,667 shares of common stock (valued at $138,000, based on the quoted market price at the time of the acquisition) and $93,000 of acquisition costs. The Company issued an additional 46,667 shares of its common stock and placed them in escrow (a portion of which is not reflected as outstanding common stock), that were scheduled to be released to the former shareholders of Platinum, subject to certain performance provisions (as defined), in various increments through April 2004; 15,556 shares were earned and were issued effective December 31, 2001, valued at $20,000, and 15,556 shares were earned and were issued effective December 31, 2002, valued at $39,000. Both issuances are additive to the cost of the acquisition. In addition, two key employees of Platinum entered into three-year employment agreements with the Company, with an aggregate base compensation of $300,000 per annum and options to purchase an aggregate of 20,000 shares of the Company's common stock vesting over three years, with an exercise price of $2.06, the fair market value on the date of the grant. In conjunction with the closing of the Platinum operations these employment agreements were terminated. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, assets and liabilities were fair valued at the date of acquisition and the results of operations were included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company, commencing May 1, 2001. As a result of the lack of development of the Platinum business and to focus the Company's resources on its core business, in December 2003, the Company decided to close the operations of Platinum. Accordingly, the results of operations and the assets and liabilities of Platinum are presented as discontinued operations for both the current and prior period. The losses are reflected as loss from discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The following table reflects the results of the discontinued operations of Platinum for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively:

These lines have various expiration dates. One line has no expiration date and bears an interest rate of prime (4.00% at December 31, 2003) plus 1%, is collateralized by substantially all the assets of Platinum, and is personally guaranteed by one of the former officers of Platinum. The second line expired in May 2003 and bears an interest rate of 10%. The third line contains no expiration date and bears an interest rate of 16.25%. The total obligation under these three lines of credit as of December 31, 2003 is $96,000.

F-15 DIRECT INSITE CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 4 - Accounts Receivable and Due to Bank The Company has an Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement with a Bank, whereby the Company from time to time may assign some of their accounts receivable to the Bank on a full recourse basis. Upon specific invoice approval, an advance of 80% of the underlying receivable is provided to the Company.

Additionally, in 2001, the Company acquired 15,680,167 shares in exchange for 60,000 shares of NetWolves common stock, with a value of $156,000. Further, as part of an anti- dilution protection clause in the initial investment agreement, the Company was entitled to approximately 48,000,000 additional shares, which brought the Company's ownership in Voyant to approximately 10.5%. Voyant is a privately held company, and accordingly, through December 31, 2001, the investment had been reflected on the Company's balance sheet as a non-marketable security, at cost. However, the Company had achieved a level of influence such that the Company began to account for its investment in Voyant utilizing the equity method of accounting commencing January 1, 2002. As a result, the Company recorded a $157,000 non-operating loss for its pro rata share of Voyant's operations for the year ended December 31, 2002. The Company's Chairman was also the Co-Chairman of Voyant until November 2002 at which time he resigned his position as their Co-Chairman.

NOTE 14 - Management's Liquidity Plans In order to meet the Company's cash needs and to achieve positive operating cash flows the Company has and will continue to take various actions and steps that it believes will enable the Company to attain these goals. These actions include: -- In the second half of 2003 the Company embarked on a cost reduction program, including among other things, staff reductions, pay rate reductions, and elimination of non-essential expenses. The Company believes these cost reductions have already begun to have a positive impact on its operating performance. The Company notes that its intention is to reinstate the pay rate reductions as soon as practical and as soon as its operating results and cash flows permit. -- As discussed in Note 3, in December 2003 the Company closed the Dallas, Texas based operations of Platinum. Platinum had experienced losses and had significant cash needs. In 2003, Platinum utilized $1,012,000 of cash. -- The Company intends to raise additional capital through private equity offerings and borrowing. In this regard in December 2003, as discussed in Note 10, the Company initiated the sale of Series C Preferred stock and as of December 31, 2003 had net proceeds from these sales of $530,000. -- Subsequent to December 31, 2003 and through March 31, 2004 the Company received an additional $760,000 from sales of this issue. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to raise additional capital through equity sales and/or borrowing. F-27 DIRECT INSITE CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 14 - Management's Liquidity Plans, continued -- The Company continues to strive to increase revenue through offering custom engineering services, expanding and enhancing its existing product offerings, and introducing new product offerings. In 2003 the Company's revenue from continuing operations increased $827,000 or 12.5% over revenue in 2002. -- The Company continues to expand its marketing efforts in order to increase its customer base. In this regard, in 2003, the Company became a business partner with IBM and through this relationship will work with IBM in an effort to achieve sales to new customers. The Company will continue to pursue similar channel partner opportunities. The Company believes that the plan and new initiatives as discussed above will ultimately lead to positive cash flows and profitability. While the Company pursues these goals the Company also believes that the ability to raise additional capital through equity and debt placements will provide sufficient cash to meet our requirements at least through December 31, 2004. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will achieve its cash flow and profitability goals, or that the Company will be able to raise additional capital sufficient to meet operating expenses or implement the plan. In such event, the Company may have to revise the plans and significantly reduce operating expenses, which could have an adverse effect on revenue and operations in the short term.
