See accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements. Page 6 AUTHENTIDATE HOLDING CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. In the opinion of management the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for fair presentation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Authentidate Holding Corp. (AHC) and its subsidiaries DJS Marketing Group, Inc. (DJS), Authentidate, Inc., Authentidate International AG (AG) and Trac Medical Systems, Inc. (Trac Med) and its DocStar Division and are referred to as the Company. 2. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. 3. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002. 4. During the nine months ended March 31, 2003; 96,781 common stock options and 3,000 common stock warrants were exercised. 5. The following represents the reconciliation of the basic and diluted loss per share amounts for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
MARCH 31, --------------------------------------------------------------------------- THREE MONTHS ENDED NINE MONTHS ENDED --------------------------------- --------------------------------- 2003 2002 2003 2002 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Net income/(loss) ($ 3,009,758) ($ 2,533,384) ($ 6,958,179) ($ 7,365,309) Preferred stock dividends (55,999) (440,924) (170,091) (1,334,687) ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Loss applicable to common shareholders ($ 3,065,757) ($ 2,974,308) ($ 7,128,270) ($ 8,699,996) Weighted average shares 20,102,062 16,782,339 20,006,547 17,015,704 Net loss per share ($ .15) ($ .18) ($ .36) ($ .51)
The impact of options, warrants and convertible notes was antidilutive to the calculation of basic and dilutive loss per share and were accordingly excluded from the calculation. The preferred stock dividends for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2002 includes amortization of the beneficial conversion feature of Series C Preferred Stock approximating $366,000 and $1,098,000, respectively. 6. The Company's reportable segments are separate divisions and distinct businesses which are managed separately. Included in the Authentidate Related column are operations of Authentidate, Trac Med, AG and Sports which are all in the authentication software services business. DocStar is in the document imaging software business and DJS is in the systems integration business. DocStar sells through a national network of dealers (approximately 100 dealers) and anticipates the addition of several new dealers each quarter to expand into markets not currently served. DJS's market is primarily in the Albany, New York region. Authentidate, Trac Med and AG sell their products and services on a national basis using a direct sales model. The Corporate Division's expenses are non-operating expenses which include all public company related activities and apply to all of the Company's operating divisions and therefore should be segregated. The Company's segment information follows: SEGMENT INFORMATION FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED:

7. Other Equity represents a collateralized loan to the Chief Executive Officer. Of this amount, the Company loaned the Chief Executive Officer $317,000 in January, 2001 and an additional amount of $203,159 in February 2002. See note 19 to the financial statements for further discussion on these loans. 8. In July and August 2002 the Company sold 660,077 shares of its common stock at $3.03 per share in a private transaction. The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $2.0 million. The Company issued 132,015 common stock purchase warrants to the buyers which have an exercise price of $3.26 per share and have a five year life. The proceeds have been used to fund business development, sales and marketing of the Authentidate businesses along with general working capital of the Company. 9. In October 2002, the Company sold convertible debentures with a face value of $3,700,000 to institutional investors and warrants to purchase 444,000 shares of common stock. The debentures are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at an initial conversion price of $2.50 per share. The debentures are due three years from the date of issuance and accrue interest at the rate of 7% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. At the option of the Company, the interest may be paid in either cash or additional shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable for a period of four years from the date of issuance and are initially exercisable at $2.50 per share. The conversion price of the debentures and the exercise price of the warrants are subject to adjustment in the event the Company issues common stock or securities convertible into common stock at a price per share of common stock less than the conversion price or exercise price on the basis of a weighted average formula. In addition, the conversion price of the debentures and the exercise price of the warrants are subject to adjustment at any time as the result of any subdivision, stock split, combination of shares or recapitalization. The Company has an option, but not a requirement, to sell another $2,467,000 of convertible debentures to the same investors provided the Company's common stock maintains a trading price at or above $3.00 per share for the 15 trading days preceding an election to sell additional debentures. This option is in effect for 12 months following the effective date of the registration statement covering the shares underlying the debentures. The Company's common stock was trading at a market price below the exercise price of $2.50 per share on the date the letter of intent was signed by the Company and the institutional investors. However, on the date of closing the Company's stock was trading above the exercise price of $2.50 per share. As a result of the increase in market price on the date of closing and to allocate a portion of the debt to the 444,000 warrants, under generally accepted accounting principles the Company was required to record a debt discount of $2,003,000 on the balance sheet thereby reducing the liability on the balance sheet from $3,700,000 to $1,697,000 on the date of the sale. This debt discount will be amortized and charged to interest expense over a period of 36 months and the debt discount will be zero when the $3,700,000 debt is due to be repaid 36 months from the closing date. In the event the investors convert the debentures prior to the end of 36 months then generally accepted accounting principles require the Company to expense the unamortized balance of the debt discount in full. Through March 31, 2003, $278,195 has been recorded as non-cash interest expense on the Company's income statement. Going forward the Company will incur a non-cash interest expense of approximately $167,000 per quarter or approximately $668,000 per year. 10. During the nine months ended March 31, 2003 the Company incurred a net loss of $6,958,179. Cash used in operating activities totaled $5,323,792 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 compared to $6,003,316 used in operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2002. The Company's cash balance decreased from $2,269,353 to $1,890,874 from June 30, 2002 to March 31, 2003 mainly due to operating losses and investments in property, plant and equipment and software development and investments in affiliates. These uses of cash were offset by the private sale of common stock of $1,955,035 and the sale of convertible debentures of $3,700,000, before financing costs. Further, the Company's accumulated deficit has increased from $42,999,497 at June 30, 2002 to $50,127,766 at March 31, 2003. To date the Company has been largely dependent on its ability to sell additional shares of its common stock or other securities to obtain financing to fund its operating deficits. Under its current Page 8 operating plan to introduce the new Authentidate technology, the Company's ability to improve operating cash flow is highly dependent on the market acceptance of its products and the Company's ability to reduce overhead costs. Authentidate and its related businesses, Trac Med and AG are currently cash flow negative and along with Corporate operations were responsible for the negative cash flow from operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2003. If the Company is unable to attain projected sales levels for Authentidate and related products during the next six months it may be necessary to raise additional capital to fund operations and meet its obligations. There is no assurance that such funding will be available, if needed. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital necessary to fund operations and is unable to attain projected sales levels for Authentidate and related products then it will implement cost reduction strategies including the possible shutdown or reduction of operations at Authentidate, AG or Trac Med. In order to address the working capital needs of the Company, the Company signed a Letter of Intent on May 14, 2003 to issue approximately $2.0 Million in convertible notes in a private transaction with a group of investors which includes two directors. The conversion price on the notes is $2.60 and will bear interest at the rate of 7% per annum payable either in cash or stock. In addition the Company will issue 230,769 five year common stock warrants. Half of the warrants will be exercisable at $2.60 per share and half will be exercisable at $2.86 per share. In the event the Company does not close on this financing the Company will need to either raise other financing or significantly reduce its costs. The investors and the Company have agreed to attempt to close this transaction within approximately 5 to 10 days, although there can be no assurance it will be completed in such timeframe, or at all, or upon the terms as described above. It is intended that the securities issued in this transaction, including the shares issuable upon conversion or exercise of the notes and warrants, will be restricted securities under the terms of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be transferred or resold unless registered under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption thereunder. 11. As described in our report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002, we are involved in the following pending and threatened legal proceedings. We are the defendant in a third party complaint filed by Shore Venture Group, LLC in the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The third party complaint was filed on May 7, 2001. Shore Venture is the defendant to an action commenced by Berwyn Capital. The third party complaint alleges a claim of breach of contract and seeks indemnification. A trial was held in October 2002 and we are awaiting the judge's verdict. Management believes that the claim will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow. We have also been advised of a claim by Shore Venture Group concerning additional shares of Common Stock of our subsidiary, Authentidate, Inc. This claim is not before the court in the third-party litigation previously discussed. We are conducting settlement negotiations with Shore Venture and believe that a settlement will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow. No formal action has been commenced in connection with this claim and the settlement negotiations are being held at this juncture in an effort to avoid resorting to litigation on this issue. We are engaged in no other litigation the effect of which would be anticipated to have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 12.

13. Effective July 1, 2001, the Company adopted FAS 141 and FAS 142. FAS 141 requires business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. It also specifies the types of acquired intangible assets that are required to be recognized and reported separate from goodwill. FAS 142 requires that goodwill and certain intangibles no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually. The Company adopted FAS No. 142 effective July 1, 2001. Page 9 The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, are as follows:

The Company retains a third party valuation firm to perform an annual valuation of goodwill as of June 30. There have been no developments during the nine months ended March 31, 2003, which would require an interim valuation of goodwill. The Company acquired the minority interest shares of Trac Med during the quarter ended March 31, 2003, approximately 14% of the shares outstanding. As a result of such acquisition the Company now owns 100% of the outstanding shares of Trac Med and the Company recorded goodwill of $338,000 as a result. The Company issued 130,000 shares of its common stock to the sellers and 20,000 options to purchase shares of its common stock. In addition the sellers may receive up to an aggregate of 75,000 additional shares of common stock of the Company in the event Trac Med achieves certain performance targets during the current calendar year. Intangible asset amortization expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 was $93,556. Below is a chart of intangible assets:
JUNE 30, 2002 MARCH 31, 2003 ------------- -------------- Gross Carrying Accumulated Gross Carrying Accumulated Amount Amortization Amount Amortization Patents $260,581 $24,792 $318,331 $ 41,653 Other Intangible Assets: Trademarks 106,803 15,654 134,491 21,274 Completed technologies 59,400 7,425 59,400 29,700 Accreditation 121,800 15,225 121,800 60,900 Licenses 13,600 4,533 15,102 7,658 -------- ------- -------- -------- Total $562,184 $67,629 $649,124 $161,185 ======== ======= ======== ========
No significant residual value is estimated for these intangible assets. Patent, trademark and other amortization expense is expected to be immaterial the remainder of fiscal 2003 as well as 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007. In August 2001, the FASB issued FAS No.143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. FAS No. 143 requires the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation to be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. FAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The adoption of this Statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements In August 2001, the FASB issued FAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which supercedes FAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for the Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of, and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB No. 30. FAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposals of long-lived assets and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this Statement has not had a material impact on the Company's financial statements. In April 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections as of April 2002. This Statement addresses a number of items related to leases and other matters. The adoption of this Statement has not had a material impact on the Company's financial statements. 14. Present Accounting Standard Not Yet Adopted: In June 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This Standard addresses the recognition, measurement and reporting of costs that are associated with exit or disposal activities. FAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of FAS No. 146 has not had a material impact on the Company's financial statements. Page 10 In December 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 148 Accounting for Stock Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure - an amendment of FAS 123. This Statement amends FAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of Statement 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The Statement has varying effective dates commencing with interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. 15. In November 2002, the FASB issued FAS Interpretation No. 45 (FIN 45), Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, FIN 45 requires that upon issuance of a guarantee, the guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee. The initial recognition and measurement should be applied on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. Disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of both interim and annual periods that end after December 15, 2002. The Company has no guarantees to unaffiliated third parties so the adoption of FIN 45 has had no impact on the Company's financial statements. 16. Included in net sales and cost of goods sold are service sales of $1,163,406 and cost of service sales of $460,601 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003. 17. On October 30, 2002, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment of the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights and Number of Shares of Series B Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Amendment provides that the conversion rate applicable to the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be fixed at $1.40. Previously, the conversion rate was equal to the lower of $1.875 and the average of the closing bid and asked prices of our common stock for the immediately preceding ten consecutive trading days ending one day prior to the notice of conversion; provided, however, that the conversion rate would not be below $0.875. Accordingly, the outstanding 28,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock are presently convertible into an aggregate of 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Prior to the amendment, the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock were convertible into a maximum of 800,000 shares of the Company's common stock. In consideration of obtaining the consent of the holder of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock, the Company agreed to defer its ability to redeem those shares for a period of two years. 18. During the quarter ended March 31, 2003 Authentidate Sports, Inc., in which the Company owns 50% of the stock, temporarily discontinued operations due to lack of sales and to reduce the Company's expenses. The Company hopes to find a strategic partner in the collectibles business before recommencing operations of Authentidate Sports. Authentidate Sports has been accounted for as a non-consolidated joint venture and its losses have had an immaterial impact on the Company's statements of operations in the current fiscal year and prior fiscal years. As a result of this discontinuation the Company has written off its investment in Authentidate Sports in the amount of $383,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2003. 19. In April 2003, the non executive Directors approved a plan to purchase all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock from the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in exchange for loans owed to the Company by the Chairman and for cash. The Company's Series A Preferred Stock provides the holder with the ability to elect a majority of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company and its Chief Executive Officer have agreed on a total purchase price for this transaction of $850,000 which represents a discount as compared to the appraised value of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock of $1.1 million which was determined by an independent nationally recognized appraisal and valuation firm. The Company's Board ordered this valuation prior to agreeing upon the purchase price for the shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Of the purchase price to be paid, an amount equal to approximately $478,000 would be credited against the purchase price in order for the Chief Executive Officer to satisfy in full the amounts outstanding to the Company. The balance due to the Chief Executive Officer would be partially paid at closing and in monthly installments of $15,000 thereafter. The Company's repurchase of the Series A Preferred Stock, however, is subject to various conditions, including its receipt of the consent of the holders of its outstanding convertible debentures, shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock in addition to its ability to successfully raise additional capital. The Company cannot guarantee that it will obtain the consent of all necessary security holders or that it will successfully raise additional capital. Page 11 20. The Company does not expense options granted under the Company's option plans. The Company applies FAS No.123 to determine the compensation cost on a pro-forma basis for footnote disclosure. The pro-forma amounts in the table below were determined using the Black Scholes option-pricing model which values options based on the stock price at the grant date, the expected life of the option, the estimated volatility, expected dividend payments and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the options.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF ITEM 2. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Authentidate Holding Corp.("AHC" or "the Company") together with its subsidiaries is involved in the sales and marketing of document imaging software products (through DocStar), systems integration services and products (through DJS) and security software services (through Authentidate, Trac Med and AG). Revenues during the current fiscal year have been derived primarily from DocStar and DJS. Our DocStar document imaging system enables users to scan paper documents and retrieve those documents electronically. Our computer integration services are carried out by DJS. As a systems integrator, DJS configures various computer hardware and software to meet the needs of business/organization customers. The Authentidate security software service is designed to accept and store a digital code used to prove authenticity of content, date and time via the Internet of any electronic document or image. Our Authentidate subsidiary has entered into an alliance agreement with the United States Postal Service to operate the Postal Service's Electronic Postmark(R) service, which incorporates our Authentidate software. Trac Med uses the Authentidate service in the medical industry to assist in the processing of Certificates of Medical Necessity and other electronic healthcare forms over the Internet. AG is our European subsidiary which sells the Authentidate software services to certain international markets. The following analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of AHC should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q as well as our Form 10-K. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES The Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based on its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to new product launches, bad debts, inventory obsolescence, recoverability of equity investments, intangible assets, software capitalization and deferred tax assets and contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results for which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions. The Company believes the following critical accounting policies require more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. The Company writes down its inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write downs may be required. Page 12 The Company has capitalized software development costs related to the Authentidate product and significant goodwill related to acquisitions, for which the recoverability of such capitalized costs and goodwill is highly dependent on the future success of the marketing and sales of the Authentidate product line. If the product is not well received by the market place and the future revenue generated from such product launch is less than anticipated, the carrying value of the related software development costs and goodwill may be impaired and require an impairment charge in the future. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 COMPARED TO THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002. The Company realized a consolidated net loss of $3,009,758 ($.15 per share) and $6,958,179 ($.36 per share) for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2003. This loss compares to the prior year loss of $2,533,384 ($.18 per share) and $7,365,309 ($.51 per share) for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2002, respectively. As reported in Footnote 6 (Segment Information) to the Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in this Form 10-Q, the net loss is the result of losses incurred primarily by the Company's Authentidate segment. Our Authentidate segment has incurred significant sales, marketing, development and general administrative expenses this year and last in an effort to complete the product development efforts and generate sales. The consolidated net loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 is approximately $407,000 less than it was for the same period last year. Contributing to this improvement is an increase in segment profit realized by the DocStar Division of $309,840. This increase in profit is due to an improvement in gross margins as a result of reduced cost of goods sold caused by a reduction in direct material costs. Also contributing to the reduction in the consolidated net loss is the Authentidate segment whose segment loss was $364,699 lower than the previous year as a result of an increase of sales from $41,704 to $1,111,754. Corporate Division expenses were unchanged compared to last year and product development increased by $245,948. The DJS segment income increased by $45,750 compared to last year. Consolidated sales were $8,105,870 and $19,491,021 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2003. This is a significant increase over the prior year when sales were $3,592,159 and $10,986,948 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2002, respectively. As reported in Footnote 6, most of the increase is due to DJS as a result of a shift in its product mix of sales. The increase in DJS sales was primarily the result of an increase in direct computer hardware sales this year compared to last year. Last fiscal year, during the nine months ended March 31, 2002, DJS had a significant amount of indirect sales. In an indirect sale DJS passes the hardware sale to a national distributor or manufacturer and realizes a fee from the distributor that DJS records as a sale. The fee is generally a percentage of the total sale. In a direct sale DJS would purchase the hardware from the distributor or manufacturer and resell it to its customer and would record the entire hardware sale. In a direct sale, the sales revenue is much higher than an indirect sale and so is the cost of sale. However, in either scenario the gross profit dollars are about the same. The DJS sales mix of direct sales to indirect sales is dictated by market conditions and is determined by the customer and/or vendor. Sales also increased in the Authentidate Segment by $1,070,050 as a result of increased customer acceptance of Authentidate software services. DocStar sales were about the same as last year. Consolidated gross profit for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2003 was $1,453,173 and $4,526,489, respectively. This compares to consolidated gross profit of $1,087,126 and $3,250,680 for the same periods last year. The increase is due to the DocStar Division as a result of a decrease in cost of sales. The consolidated gross profit margin was 17.9% and 23.2% for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2003, respectively. This compares to a consolidated gross profit margin of 30.3% and 29.6% for the same periods last year. DJS realized a decrease in profit margins compared to last year due to the change in product mix discussed above, direct sales have a lower gross profit margin than indirect sales. In addition, the DJS profit margins have been negatively affected by competitive pressure in the current economy. Offsetting the reduced profit margins of DJS was an increase in gross profit margins for DocStar. DocStar's gross profit margin increased from 52.1% to 63.6% from March 31, 2002 to March 31, 2003. This increase is due to reduced direct material costs due to better purchasing and a general reduction in component parts throughout the computer industry. Gross profit margin is defined as gross profit as a percentage of sales. Page 13 Selling, general and administrative expenses (S,G&A) consist of all other Company expenses except product development costs and interest. S,G&A expenses amounted to $3,027,959 and $9,023,914 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2003, respectively. This compares to $2,704,177 and $8,173,669 for the same periods last year. This increase in S,G&A expenses is primarily the result of the addition of AG this year. Last year AG was treated as an unconsolidated affiliate until the Company purchased 100% of the shares of AG in March 2002 and AG became a fully consolidated subsidiary. As a percentage of sales, S,G&A costs were 37.4% and 46.3% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2003, respectively. This compares to 75.3% and 74.4% for the same periods last year. This percentage decrease is primarily due to the increase in consolidated sales as discussed above. Interest expense was $339,912 and $587,734 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2003, respectively. This compares to $29,083 and $85,250 for the same periods last year. The increase is primarily due to interest on $3.7 million of convertible debentures which were issued during October 2002. The Company recorded non-cash interest expense of $278,195, during the nine months ended March 31, 2003, relative to the amortization of debt discount on the convertible debentures which is more fully explained in Footnote 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q. In addition, the Company is required to pay interest on the convertible debentures in the amount of 7% per annum which resulted in interest expense of $113,536 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003. Finally and to a much lesser extent, the Company incurred additional interest expense this year as a result of new equipment and software leases entered into by the Authentidate Segment and by DJS from borrowings on its line of credit which did not exist a year ago this time. The DJS line of credit was established in May 2002. Product development expenses, excluding capitalized costs, primarily relate to software development for the Authentidate Segment. These costs were $731,346 and $1,896,011 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2003, respectively, compared to $468,456 and $1,650,063 for the same periods last year. The Company has a policy of capitalizing qualified software development costs after technical feasibility has been established and amortizing those costs over three years as cost of goods sold The amortization expense of software development costs amounted to $822,252 during the 9 months ended March 31, 2003. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's primary sources of funds to date have been the issuance of equity and the incurrence of third party debt. The principal balance of long-term debt at March 31, 2003 totaled $1,290,982 all of which relates to a mortgage loan on the Company's principle office located in Schenectady, NY. The Company also has long-term convertible debentures in the amount of $1,975,195 net of debt discount of $1,724,805 at March 31, 2003. The Company's DJS subsidiary has a $2 Million revolving line of credit with a financial institution collateralized by all assets of DJS and guaranteed by the Company. The agreement restricts DJS from making cash advances to the parent Company, AHC, without obtaining a waiver from the financial institution. The interest rate is prime plus 1.75% with a minimum rate of 7%. DJS may borrow on this line based on a formula of qualified accounts receivable and inventory. The outstanding balance on this line of credit is $1,737,568 at March 31, 2003. Property, plant and equipment expenditures totaled $331,328 and capitalized software development expenditures totaled $225,239 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, respectively. There are no significant purchase commitments outstanding. In June 1999, the Company completed construction of a new office and production facility in Schenectady, New York for approximately $2,300,000 which was financed with a $1,000,000 grant from the Empire State Development Corporation (an agency of New York state) and a mortgage loan from a local financial institution. The grant stipulates that the Company is obligated to achieve certain annual employment levels between January 1, 2002 and January 1, 2005 or some or all of the grant will have to be repaid. The Company has not achieved the agreed upon employment levels to date but expects to achieve such levels by 2005. No assurances can be given that such employment levels will be achieved by 2005 so the grant has been classified as a long term liability on the balance sheet. In the event some or all of the grant will be required to be repaid the Company will either seek refinancing from a financial institution, sell the building or pay the grant off out of cash reserves. The Company's cash balance at March 31, 2003 was $1,890,874 and total assets were $25,838,219 and the Company received approximately $3.7 million in October 2002 in a financing described more fully below. A portion of this cash balance, however, secures the outstanding line of credit held by DJS and DJS would need to obtain the consent from the lender prior to advancing such funds to the parent Company, AHC. In the event the Authentidate Segment does not increase its sales materially then the Company will either need to obtain outside financing or reduce expenses or a combination of both. Page 14 In order to address the working capital needs of the Company, the Company signed a Letter of Intent on May 14, 2003 to issue approximately $2.0 Million in convertible notes in a private transaction with a group of investors which includes two directors. The conversion price on the notes is $2.60 and will bear interest at the rate of 7% per annum payable either in cash or stock. In addition the Company will issue 230,769 five year common stock warrants. Half of the warrants will be exercisable at $2.60 per share and half will be exercisable at $2.86 per share. In the event the Company does not close on this financing the Company will need to either raise other financing or significantly reduce its costs. The investors and the Company have agreed to attempt to close this transaction within approximately 5 to 10 days, although there can be no assurance it will be completed in such timeframe, or at all, or upon the terms as described above. It is intended that the securities issued in this transaction, including the shares issuable upon conversion or exercise of the notes and warrants, will be restricted securities under the terms of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be transferred or resold unless registered under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption thereunder. During the nine months ended March 31, 2003 the Company incurred a net loss of $6,958,179. Cash used in operating activities totaled $5,323,792 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 compared to $6,003,316 used in operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2002. The Company's cash balance decreased from $2,269,353 to $1,890,874 from June 30, 2002 to March 31, 2003 mainly due to operating losses and investments in property, plant and equipment and software development and investments in affiliates. These uses of cash were offset by the private sale of common stock of $1,955,035 and the sale of convertible debentures of $3,700,000. Further, the Company's accumulated deficit has increased from $42,999,497 at June 30, 2002 to $50,127,766 at March 31, 2003. To date the Company has been largely dependent on its ability to sell additional shares of its common stock or other securities to obtain financing to fund its operating deficits. Under its current operating plan to introduce the new Authentidate technology, the Company's ability to improve operating cash flow is highly dependent on the market acceptance of its products and the Company's ability to reduce overhead costs. Authentidate and it's related businesses, Trac Med and AG are currently cash flow negative and along with Corporate operations were responsible for the negative cash flow from operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2003. If the Company is unable to attain projected sales levels for Authentidate and related products during the next six months it may be necessary to raise additional capital to fund operations and meet its obligations. There is no assurance that such funding will be available, if needed. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital necessary to fund operations and is unable to attain projected sales levels for Authentidate and related products then it will implement cost reduction strategies including the possible shutdown or reduction of operations at Authentidate, AG or Trac Med. The Company has engaged an investment banking firm to assist the Company in arranging private financing as well as providing general advisory services to the Company. Further, the Company is exploring various alternatives for a strategic investment. If the Company is successful in raising additional capital it intends to use such proceeds to further develop the Authentidate technology and to fund the sales and marketing efforts of this product and related products such as Trac Med and AG as well as for general working capital purposes. Further, the Company would apply a portion of such proceeds to repurchase the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by its Chief Executive Officer, as discussed in greater detail below. The agreement is not a commitment to provide financing and there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in securing any equity or debt investments in the future. During the quarter ended March 31, 2003 the Company incurred a non-cash charge of $383,000 which represents the write off of its investment in a 50/50 joint venture known as Authentidate Sports, Inc. Authentidate Sports, Inc. has temporarily discontinued operations due to lack of sales and in order to reduce the Company's expenses. Authentidate Sports was accounted for as a non consolidated joint venture. The Company hopes to find a strategic partner in the collectibles industry but no assurances can be given that it will be successful and that Authentidate Sports will become operational again. During the quarter ended March 31, 2003, AHC acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of its subsidiary, Trac Medical Solutions, Inc., previously held by four other shareholders. Prior to the acquisition, AHC owned 85.8% of the outstanding stock of Trac Med. As a result of the acquisition, AHC now owns 100% of Trac Med. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of March 13, 2003, AHC issued an aggregate of 130,000 shares of its common stock to the sellers, and also issued 20,000 options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to the closing price of AHC's common stock as of the closing date of the transaction. In addition, the sellers may receive, up to an aggregate amount of 75,000 additional shares of common stock of AHC in the event that Trac Med achieves certain performance targets during this calendar year. In addition, the sellers agreed to place an aggregate of 52,000 shares of the AHC Common Stock issued to them into a six month escrow to provide for the potential breaches of representations and warranties contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement regarding the financial condition and operations of Trac Med. The parties completed the transaction effective on March 18, 2003. The acquisition does not have a material effect upon the financial condition of AHC. Page 15 In April 2003, the non executive Directors approved a plan to purchase all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock from the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in exchange for loans owed to the Company by the Chairman and for cash. The Company's Series A Preferred Stock provides the holder with the ability to elect a majority of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company and its Chief Executive Officer have agreed on a total purchase price for this transaction of $850,000 which represents a discount as compared to the appraised value of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock of $1.1 million which was determined by an independent nationally recognized appraisal and valuation firm. The Company's Board ordered this valuation prior to agreeing upon the purchase price for the shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Of the purchase price to be paid, an amount equal to approximately $478,000 would be credited against the purchase price in order for the Chief Executive Officer to satisfy in full the amounts outstanding to the Company. The balance due to the Chief Executive Officer would be partially paid at closing and in monthly installments of $15,000 thereafter. The Company's repurchase of the Series A Preferred Stock, however, is subject to various conditions, including its receipt of the consent of the holders of its outstanding convertible debentures, shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock in addition to its ability to successfully raise additional capital. The Company cannot guarantee that it will obtain the consent of all necessary security holders or that it will successfully raise additional capital. During the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2002, we consummated a private placement of our securities pursuant to Rule 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. The securities offered have a purchase price of $3.03 per unit. We sold an aggregate of 660,077 units of our securities, each unit comprised of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase .20 shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable at $3.26 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance. We received approximately an aggregate of $1,955,000 in net proceeds after payment of expenses. The proceeds were be used to fund business development, marketing and sales efforts for the Authentidate software services, along with our general working capital needs. A registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission was declared effective by the Commission during the quarter ending December 31, 2002 for these shares and the underlying warrant shares. On January 9, 2002, we announced that we had entered into a letter of intent to acquire the assets of Zylab International, Inc., a privately owned company based in Germantown, Maryland for shares of AHC common stock. The letter of intent contemplated that the purchase price will range between a minimum of 725,000 and a maximum of 1,000,000 shares of AHC common stock. Pursuant to the letter of intent, we loaned to Zylab an aggregate principle amount of $500,000, which loan was collateralized by all of the assets of Zylab, including its intellectual property. As of June 30, 2002, Zylab had defaulted on the notes. On September 23, 2002, we closed on a transaction pursuant to which our loan was repaid on the following terms. Zylab made payment to us of $350,000 in cash, $50,000 in prepaid license fees for a product DocStar licenses from Zylab, and agreed to pay to us 18% of the future net income of Zylab or a successor company up to $100,000, after a $75,000 threshold. Accordingly, our planned acquisition of Zylab has been cancelled. During the quarter ended December 31, 2002 Zylab has ceased operations making it highly unlikely any of the $100,000 of future net income of Zylab or a successor company will ever be received. In October 2002, the Company sold convertible debentures with a face value of $3,700,000 to institutional investors and warrants to purchase 444,000 shares of common stock. The debentures are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at an initial conversion price of $2.50 per share. The debentures are due three years from the date of issuance and accrue interest at the rate of 7% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. At the option of the Company, the interest may be paid in either cash or additional shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable for a period of four years from the date of issuance and are initially exercisable at $2.50 per share. The conversion price of the debentures and the exercise price of the warrants are subject to adjustment in the event the Company issues common stock or securities convertible into common stock at a price per share of common stock less than the conversion price or exercise price on the basis of a weighted average formula. In addition, the conversion price of the debentures and the exercise price of the warrants are subject to adjustment at any time as the result of any subdivision, stock split, combination of shares or recapitalization. The Company has an option, but not a requirement, to sell another $2,467,000 of convertible debentures to the same investors provided the Company's common stock maintains a trading price at or above $3.00 per share for the 15 trading days preceding the election to sell additional debentures. This option is in effect for 12 months following the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures. Page 16 The securities sold in this offering were restricted securities under the terms of Regulation D and may not be transferred or resold for a period of one year, except pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or an exemption hereunder. The Company filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the shares of common stock underlying the debentures and the warrants which was declared effective by the Commission during the quarter ended December 31, 2002. Below is a chart disclosing future minimum operating lease payments and aggregate principle maturities of long-term debt as of March 31, 2003, for the next five years.

PRESENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET ADOPTED In June 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This Standard addresses the recognition, measurement and reporting of costs that are associated with exit or disposal activities. FAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of FAS No. 146 has not had a material impact on the Company's financial statements. In December 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 148 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of FAS 123". This Statement amends FAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of Statement 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The Statement has varying effective dates commencing with interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We do not believe that any of our financial instruments have significant risk associated with market sensitivity. We are not exposed to significant financial market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and are only minimally impacted by changes in interest rates. However, in the future, we may enter into transactions denominated in non-U.S. currencies or increase the level of our borrowings, which could increase our exposure to these market risks. We have not used, and currently do not contemplate using, any derivative financial instruments. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, conducted an evaluation of our "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") Rules 13a-14 (c)) within 90 days of the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the "Evaluation Date"). Based on their evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that all material information required to be filed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been made known to them in a timely fashion. CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS There have been no significant changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date set forth above. Page 17 PART II OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS: As described in our report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002, we are involved in the following pending and threatened legal proceedings. We are the defendant in a third party complaint filed by Shore Venture Group, LLC in the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The third party complaint was filed on May 7, 2001. Shore Venture is the defendant to an action commenced by Berwyn Capital. The third party complaint alleges a claim of breach of contract and seeks indemnification. There was a trial in October 2002 and we continue to await the judge's decision. Management believes that the claim will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow. We have also been advised of a claim by Shore Venture Group concerning additional shares of Common Stock of our subsidiary, Authentidate, Inc. This claim is not before the court in the third-party litigation previously discussed. We are conducting settlement negotiations with Shore Venture and believe that a settlement will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow. No formal action has been commenced in connection with this claim and the settlement negotiations are being held at this juncture in an effort to avoid resorting to litigation on this issue. We are engaged in no other litigation the effect of which would be anticipated to have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS TO CONSULTANT During the quarter ended March 31, 2003 we issued 200,000 warrants to our public relations firm, exercisable for a period of four years from the option date at an exercise price of $3.10 per share. The Company recorded a non-cash expense of $138,000 in connection with these warrants using the Black Scholes Model. ACQUISITION OF TRAC MEDICAL SOLUTIONS, INC. During the quarter ended March 31, 2003, AHC acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of its subsidiary, Trac Medical Solutions, Inc., previously held by four other shareholders. Prior to the acquisition, AHC owned 85.8% of the outstanding stock of Trac Med. As a result of the acquisition, AHC now owns 100% of Trac Med. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of March 13, 2003, AHC issued an aggregate of 130,000 shares of its common stock to the sellers, and also issued 20,000 options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to the closing price of AHC's common stock as of the closing date of the transaction. In addition, the sellers may receive, up to an aggregate amount of 75,000 additional shares of common stock of AHC in the event that Trac Med achieves certain performance targets during this calendar year. In addition, the sellers agreed to place an aggregate of 52,000 shares of the AHC Common Stock issued to them into a six month escrow to provide for the potential breaches of representations and warranties contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement regarding the financial condition and operations of Trac Med. The parties completed the transaction effective on March 18, 2003. The acquisition does not have a material effect upon the financial condition of AHC. ITEM 3 DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES: None ITEM 4 SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITIES HOLDERS: The Company held its Annual Meeting of shareholders on February 10, 2003. As of the record date of November 27, 2002, there were 19,993,786 shares outstanding and eligible to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the Annual Meeting, shareholders approved the election of directors. Shareholders were requested to vote on the election of the following five directors, each of whom were elected by the shareholders:
Nominee Votes Cast in Favor Votes Against Percentage in Favor John T. Botti 18,014,589 144,582 90% J. Edward Sheridan 18,043,692 115,479 90% Charles C. Johnston 18,044,692 114,479 90% Steven A. Kriegsman 17,933,097 307,546 90% J. David Luce 18,044,302 114,869 90%
Page 18 ITEM 5 OTHER INFORMATION: In April 2003, the non executive Directors approved a plan to purchase all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock from the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in exchange for loans owed to the Company by the Chairman and for cash. The Company's Series A Preferred Stock provides the holder with the ability to elect a majority of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company and its Chief Executive Officer have agreed on a total purchase price for this transaction of $850,000 which represents a discount as compared to the appraised value of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock of $1.1 million which was determined by an independent nationally recognized appraisal and valuation firm. The Company's Board ordered this valuation prior to agreeing upon the purchase price for the shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Of the purchase price to be paid, an amount equal to approximately $478,000 would be credited against the purchase price in order for the Chief Executive Officer to satisfy in full the amounts outstanding to the Company. The balance due to the Chief Executive Officer would be partially paid at closing and in monthly installments of $15,000 thereafter. The Company's repurchase of the Series A Preferred Stock, however, is subject to various conditions, including its receipt of the consent of the holders of its outstanding convertible debentures, shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock in addition to its ability to successfully raise additional capital. The Company cannot guarantee that it will obtain the consent of all necessary security holders or that it will successfully raise additional capital.
