Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

This Amendment No. 1 hereby amends information contained in Item 7 of the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by U.S. Wireless Data, Inc. with the Securities and Exchange Commission, dated December 21, 2000 relating to its acquisition of the common stock of NXT Corporation on December 21, 2000.

On December 21, 2000, we completed our previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of NXT Corporation, a Delaware corporation, (“NXT”) pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 13, 2000 by and among us, NXT, NXT Wireless, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, and certain stockholders of NXT, whereby, among other things, our subsidiary has merged with and into NXT and NXT became our wholly-owned subsidiary. NXT, is a leading provider of application delivery and network services for the transaction processing industry. NXT provides its processor clients with value-added credit card transaction processing services that are similar to those provided by us. However, NXT utilizes the fixed wireline telephone network, whereas we utilize wireless carriers. This acquisition brings together complementary technologies, enabling us to offer our customers a full array of services tailored to the needs of each merchant. In addition, NXT adds significant transaction volumes and revenues. NXT currently processes approximately thirty-five (35) million payment transactions per month, providing services to approximately 45,000 merchant locations.

The shareholders of NXT, including holders of certain phantom stock rights in NXT have exchanged their shares of common stock of NXT, for an aggregate of 1,125,000 shares of our common stock having an aggregate value of approximately $2,109,000. We agreed, subject to certain conditions, to pay additional consideration to the NXT shareholders, if the Daily Average Price (as defined in the Agreement) of our common stock for the twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending with the trading day immediately preceding December 21, 2002 is less than $18.40 per share, as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends or similar events. Such additional consideration shall be an amount equal to: (i) the number of the original 1,125,000 shares which have not previously been sold or transferred, subject to certain exceptions, multiplied by (ii) the amount, if any, not to exceed $12.40, by which such Daily Average Price is less than $18.40. Such additional consideration shall be paid to the NXT shareholders in cash, to the extent of 10% of the amount of the additional consideration to be paid by us, provided that the aggregate amount of cash paid will not exceed $500,000. Any balance of consideration due shall be paid in shares of our common stock having a value equal to the Daily Average Price, provided however, that for such purposes, in no event shall the value ascribed to our common stock be lower than $6.00 per share.

In addition to the 1,125,000 shares of common stock, we also assumed options for approximately 76,000 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $7.50 to $33.07 per share. The holders of such options may also be entitled, upon exercise of their options, to additional consideration depending on the Daily Average Price of our common stock for the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding December 21, 2002.

2

In connection with the merger, Paymentech, Inc. and Merchant-Link, LLC, NXT’s two largest customers, agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to maintain certain revenue levels of business with NXT over the next twelve (12) months and twenty-four (24) months, respectively. Failure of either of these parties to maintain such levels of business for any reason could materially impair the value of the NXT acquisition to us. Paymentech, Inc. was a stockholder of NXT and Merchant-Link is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Paymentech, Inc.

In connection with the merger, American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., a stockholder of and service provider to NXT, agreed to provide certain services at more favorable rates and we agreed that AMEX shall be entitled to designate a person to serve as a member of our board of directors for a period of two (2) years following the closing. We also paid an aggregate of approximately $1.7 million to AMEX and Paymentech to retire certain indebtedness due from NXT to AMEX and Paymentech other than current trade payables. In addition, AMEX will be providing us with $300,000 in marketing, promotion and support funding.

(With Independent Auditors' Report Thereon)

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
NXT Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of NXT Corporation as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

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

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of NXT Corporation as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

(1)       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

  NXT Corporation (“NXT” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on November 20, 1995. The Company provides data transaction transport and custom software development services. The Company operates in the credit card industry, which is highly competitive and subject to risks of technological obsolescence. The Company is dependent upon revenues generated from transactions with certain related parties within the industry, and the majority of its financing has been provided by these related parties.

        (a)         Preparation of Financial Statements

  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

        (b)         Revenue Recognition

  Transaction fee revenue is earned from the translation and transport of credit card transactions and is recognized as the services are provided. Leased line revenue is recognized as the services are provided. Software development fee revenue is derived from the development of customized software and is recognized upon delivery of the software. Amounts received in advance of meeting the revenue recognition criteria are deferred.

10




        (c)         Depreciation, Amortization and Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets

  Property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, as follows:

                                  Computer and office equipment                  3 years
                                  Computer software                                      3 years
                                  Furniture and fixtures                                  5 years
                                  Leasehold improvements                             5 years or lease term, if shorter

  Equipment under capital lease is amortized over the shorter of the lease term or its estimated useful life.

  NXT’s policy is to review its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are recognized as the excess of the carrying amount over the fair market value of the asset.

        (d)         Income Taxes

  The Company recognizes income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

        (e)         Stock-Based Compensation

  The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Under APB Opinion No. 25, compensation expense is based upon the difference, if any, between the fair value of the Company’s stock and the exercise price on the date of the grant. Options to purchase common stock granted to other than employees as consideration for goods or services rendered are measured at fair value and are recognized as the goods or services are provided.

11





        (f)         Cash and Cash Equivalents

  The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents of $531,046 and $169,348 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, consist of overnight repurchase agreements. The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.

  Restricted cash at December 31, 1999 consists of a certificate of deposit in the amount of $175,000 in support of a letter of credit held by the lessor of a portion of the Company’s office space.

        (g)         Software Development Costs

  Software development costs are expensed as incurred. SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, does not materially affect the Company.

        (h)         Comprehensive Income

  In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of financial statements. The statement requires additional disclosures in the financial statements, but does not affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Net loss as reported in the statements of operations is the Company’s only component of comprehensive income during all periods presented.

        (i)         Liquidity

  During 1999 and 1998, the Company incurred significant net losses and did not generate sufficient cash flows from operations to cover operating expenses and other obligations. At December 31, 1999, the Company had negative working capital of approximately ($1,291,000) and an accumulated deficit of approximately $12,000,000. The Company has future cash requirements to continue to fund its operations and planned growth and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing or generate sufficient cash flows necessary to satisfy these cash requirements.

(2)       Related Party Transactions

  The Company receives from and provides services to two of its major shareholders, Paymentech, Inc. ("PTI"), a subsidiary of First USA Inc. and its subsidiary, Merchant Link, Inc. ("MLI"), and American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. ("Amex"). Additionally, the Company's president is the majority owner of Maximize, Inc. ("Maximize") which transacts certain business with the Company. During 1999 and 1998 the Company had the following transactions with PTI, MLI, Amex, and Maximize:

The note bears interest at 8 percent per annum and is convertible into common stock at $4.63 per share. At December 31, 1999, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $1,150,000 against the note, plus accrued interest of approximately $65,000. During 2000, the Company borrowed the remaining $1,250,000 of principal available under the note, and PTI extended the maturity date of the note to December 31, 2000.

        (b)         MLI

  MLI uses the NXT network for transaction transport services as contracted for in a service agreement dated June 21, 1996. MLI also leases office space to NXT and has provided certain additional services including, during 1998, monthly management consulting services at cost, in addition to office space and supplies. During 1999 and 1998, the Company recorded transaction fee revenue of approximately $1,367,000 and $1,020,000, respectively, and incurred expenses of $132,000 and $148,000, respectively, for network monitoring costs. During 1998, NXT incurred $102,000 for salaries and related costs relating to management consulting services and $220,000 for office space and supplies.

  Effective September 1, 1998, the Company began subleasing office space which had previously been shared by MLI and the Company. This sublease expires on August 30, 2001. Upon entering the sublease the Company acquired from MLI existing furniture and fixtures in exchange for a secured promissory note totaling $76,375.

        (c)         Amex

  Pursuant to an agreement with Amex dated January 29, 1996, as amended on October 14, 1997 (the “Agreement” or the “amended Agreement”), the Company provides to, and receives from, Amex various services related to the transport and management of credit card transactions. In each of 1999 and 1998, the Company recorded revenue from Amex of approximately $80,000 from transaction fees and leased line reimbursements, and $0 and $68,000, respectively, from software development and other services. The Company also recognized costs of sales to Amex of approximately $2,544,000 and $1,707,000 for transaction transport services, host connection fees and transaction commissions during 1999 and 1998, respectively. As of December 31, 1999 and 1998, included in the accounts payable balance was approximately $488,000 and $290,000, respectively, due to Amex. Amex has agreed to defer all charges incurred by NXT since March 2000 until December 31, 2000.

  Pursuant to the Agreement between the Company and AMEX, NXT is required to reimburse Amex a $350,000 advance made to NXT in 1995. Such reimbursement is non-interest bearing and is payable in equal monthly installments in the amount of $7,292 commencing January 1, 1998 and continuing for an additional 47 months thereafter.

(4)       Lease Commitments

  NXT has entered into capital leases for certain computer and network equipment that expire on various dates through 2002. On September 1, 1998, the Company entered into a noncancelable operating lease for office space, previously shared by MLI and the Company (note 2), that expires August 30, 2001. During 1999, the Company entered into an operating lease with an unrelated party for additional office space.

  Upon the expiration of the existing sublease with MLI in August 2001, the Company has committed to renew their existing lease agreement with the lessor at the then prevailing market rate.

  Future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases and the present value of future minimum lease payments on capital leases as of December 31, 1999, are as follows:

                                                                Capital       Operating

(5)       Income Taxes

  No provision has been made for income taxes as the Company incurred losses during 1999 and 1998. The actual income tax provision differs from the expected income tax benefit computed using the statutory Federal income tax rate of 34 percent applied to pretax loss as a result of the following:

  In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the net operating loss carryforwards are available to reduce income taxes payable, management has established a valuation allowance for the full amount of the deferred tax assets at December 31, 1999 and 1998. The net change in the valuation allowance during the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 was an increase of $1,951,796 and $1,040,889, respectively.

(6)       Stock Options

  In April 1998, the Company adopted the NXT 1998 Stock Option Plan that provides for the granting to employees and officers stock options to purchase up to 963,728 shares of the Company’s common stock. Options granted under the plan can be incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options at the discretion of the board of directors. Option exercise prices are required to be at the fair value of the Company’s common stock as determined by the Stock Option Committee at the date of grant, except that the Stock Option Committee may fix the option price of an option not intended to be an incentive stock option at a price that is less than fair market value. Options have a term of up to ten years (or five years for incentive stock options for holders of more than 10 percent of the Company’s common stock) and may be exercisable in whole or in part at any time as the Stock Option Committee shall determine and set forth in each individual option agreement.

  NXT applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its options grants to employees. In 1999 and 1998 the Company recognized in operating expenses approximately $106,000 and $290,000, respectively, of stock compensation expense in connection with options granted below fair value during 1998. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant date for its stock options under SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net loss for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 would have been approximately $5,106,000 and $2,679,000, respectively.

  The weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during 1999 and 1998 was $1.03 and $1.45, respectively, on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

                                  Expected dividend yield                                       0%
                                  Average risk-free interest rates                       5.34%
                                  Expected life                                                   5 years

  In October 1999, the Company issued 25,000 options to a consultant with an exercise price of $4.13. These options were vested over a 90-day period ended January 18, 2000. The Company recorded compensation expense of approximately $77,000 during the year ended December 31, 1999 in connection with the issuance of these options. As of December 31, 1999, none of these options have been exercised.

(7)       Stockholders’ Equity

  In May 1999, the Company issued 259,179 shares of common stock to each of PTI and Amex, and 86,393 shares of common stock to the Company’s President, for $4.63 per share, resulting in aggregate proceeds to the Company of $2,800,000.

  In June 1997, the Company entered into two separate Phantom Stock Agreements with two employees. During 1999 and 1998, they collectively owned 517,266 shares of phantom stock. Upon the occurrence of certain events, these agreements provide for payment to the phantom shareholders, in an amount equal to the then fair market value of the Company’s common stock for each share of phantom stock. The payment may be made in cash or common stock, at the option of the Company. During 1999 and 1998, NXT recorded in operating expenses approximately ($1,102,000) and $623,502 of compensation income (expense), respectively, for the phantom shares based on changes in the fair value of the Company’s common stock.

  Warrants to purchase 366,100 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.33 which were issued to PTI on July 1, 1997 in connection with the issuance of common stock remain outstanding at December 31, 1999. These warrants are subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and expire in July 2002. As of December 31, 1999, none of these warrants have been exercised.

  On October 14, 1997, Amex purchased 1,350,007 shares of common stock (the “Amex Investment”). As consideration for the common stock, Amex entered into the amended Agreement in which Amex agreed to waive $1,200,000 of future charges for transaction transport services and related fees, which was recognized as prepaid contract costs. During 1998, the Company incurred all of the charges related to the prepaid contract costs. Also under the terms of the amended Agreement, Amex committed to a variety of concessions to NXT, including a reduction or waiver of certain other future charges and fees, valued at approximately $1,800,000, which are classified as intangible contract benefits in the accompanying financial statements and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the five-year term of the amended Agreement. Amortization for each of 1999 and 1998 was $432,000.

(8)       Retirement Plan

  During 1997, the Company established a qualified defined contribution retirement plan under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k). The participants may contribute whole percentage or dollar amounts of salary each pay period, subject to annual federal limitations. The Company may contribute amounts to the plan on a discretionary basis. No Company contributions were made to the plan during 1999 or 1998.

(9)       Significant Customers and Concentration of Credit Risk

  During 1999 and 1998, the Company’s three largest customers were related parties and accounted for substantially all of the Company’s revenues. Accounts receivable from these three customers also represent substantially all of the Company’s accounts receivable balances as of December 31, 1999 and 1998.

(10)       Subsequent Event

  On December 21, 2000, U.S. Wireless Data, Inc. purchased all of NXT's outstanding common stock.

(1)       Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements included herein have been prepared by NXT Corporation (“NXT” or the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Rule 310 of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the fiscal year.

(2)       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

  NXT Corporation was incorporated in Delaware on November 20, 1995. The Company provides data transaction transport and custom software development services. The Company operates in the credit card industry, which is highly competitive and subject to risks of technological obsolescence. The Company is dependent upon revenues generated from transactions with certain related parties within the industry, and the majority of its financing has been provided by these related parties.

        (a)         Preparation of Financial Statements

  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

        (b)         Revenue Recognition

  Transaction fee revenue is earned from the translation and transport of credit card transactions and is recognized as the services are provided. Leased line revenue is recognized as the services are provided. Software development fee revenue is derived from the development of customized software and is recognized upon delivery of the software. Amounts received in advance of meeting the revenue recognition criteria are deferred.

        (c)         Depreciation, Amortization and Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets

  Property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, as follows:

                                  Computer and office equipment                  3 years
                                  Computer software                                      3 years
                                  Furniture and fixtures                                  5 years
                                  Leasehold improvements                             5 years or lease term, if shorter

  Equipment under capital lease is amortized over the shorter of the lease term or its estimated useful life.

  NXT’s policy is to review its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are recognized as the excess of the carrying amount over the fair market value of the asset.

        (d)         Income Taxes

  The Company recognizes income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

23




        (e)         Stock-Based Compensation

  The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Under APB Opinion No. 25, compensation expense is based upon the difference, if any, between the fair value of the Company’s stock and the exercise price on the date of the grant. Options to purchase common stock granted to other than employees as consideration for goods or services rendered are measured at fair value and are recognized as the goods or services are provided.

        (f)         Cash and Cash Equivalents

  The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents of $994,912 and $761,379 at September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, consist of overnight repurchase agreements. The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.

  Restricted cash at September 30, 2000 and 1999 consists of a certificate of deposit in the amount of $175,000 in support of a letter of credit held by the lessor of a portion of the Company’s office space.

        (g)         Software Development Costs

  Software development costs are expensed as incurred. SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, does not materially affect the Company.

        (h)         Comprehensive Income

  In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of financial statements. The statement requires additional disclosures in the financial statements, but does not affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Net loss as reported in the statements of operations is the Company’s only component of comprehensive income during all periods presented.

        (i)         Liquidity

  During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company incurred significant net losses and did not generate sufficient cash flows from operations to cover operating expenses and other obligations. At September 30, 2000, the Company had negative working capital of approximately $4,125,000 and an accumulated deficit of approximately $14,900,000. The Company has future cash requirements to continue to fund its operations and planned growth and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing or generate sufficient cash flows necessary to satisfy these cash requirements.

(3)       Related Party Transactions

  The Company receives from and provides services to two of its major shareholders, Paymentech, Inc. (“PTI”), a subsidiary of First USA Inc. and its subsidiary, Merchant Link, Inc. (“MLI”), and American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. (“Amex”). Additionally, the Company’s president was the majority owner of Maximize, Inc. (“Maximize”) until July 5, 2000 when all the assets were sold to PTI for $1,000,000 in cash. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company had the following transactions with PTI, MLI, Amex, and Maximize:

        (a)         PTI

  During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company recorded approximately $770,000 and $817,000, respectively, in transaction fee revenue from PTI for monthly data transport services, $46,000 and $73,000 for leased line revenue, and $167,000 and $2,000 for software development services.

  On July 31, 1998, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to PTI in the amount of $250,000 with a maturity date of January 31, 1999. On January 4, 1999, the note was canceled and reissued as a secured promissory note with a maturity date of January 31, 2000. The secured promissory note bears interest at 8 percent per annum and is convertible into common stock at $4.63 per share. During 2000 PTI further extended the maturity date to December 31, 2000.

  Also on January 4, 1999, the Company issued an additional secured promissory note to PTI in the amount of $400,000 with a maturity date of January 31, 2000. The note was cancelled on September 3, 1999 and the balance was converted into a secured convertible promissory note with a maturity date of January 31, 2000 that permits borrowings up to $2,400,000. The note bears interest at 8 percent per annum and is convertible into common stock at $4.63 per share. By September 30, 2000, the Company had borrowed the full amount of the note of $2,400,000, plus accrued interest of approximately $203,000. On March 3, 2000, PTI extended the maturity date of the note to December 31, 2000.

        (b)         MLI

  MLI uses the NXT network for transaction transport services as contracted for in a service agreement dated June 21, 1996. MLI also leases office space to NXT and has provided certain services in addition to office space. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company recorded transaction fee revenue of approximately $1,967,000 and $978,000, respectively, and incurred expenses of $17,000 and $106,000, respectively, for network monitoring costs. The Company also recorded leased line revenue of approximately $86,000 and $3,000, and software development fee revenue of approximately $3,000 and $49,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. At September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, accounts receivable from MLI was approximately $492,000 and $149,000, respectively, and accounts payable was $2,000 and $0, respectively.

  Effective September 1, 1998, the Company began subleasing office space, which had previously been shared by MLI and the Company. This sublease expires on August 30, 2001. Upon entering the sublease the Company acquired from MLI existing furniture and fixtures in exchange for a secured promissory note totaling $76,375. The note bears interest at 8 percent per annum and is payable in equal installments of $3,327 commencing October 1, 1998 and continuing for an additional 24 months thereafter.

25




        (c)         Amex

  Pursuant to an agreement with Amex dated January 29, 1996, as amended on October 14, 1997 (the “Agreement” or the “amended Agreement”), the Company provides to, and receives from, Amex various services related to the transport and management of credit card transactions. In each of the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company recorded revenue from Amex of approximately $9,000 and $41,000, respectively, from transaction fees, leased line reimbursements and other services, and $0 and $29,000 from software development. The Company also recognized costs of sales to Amex of approximately $2,574,000 and $1,769,000 for transaction transport services, host connection fees and transaction commissions during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. As of September 30, 2000 and 1999, included in the accounts payable balance was approximately $2,341,000 and $476,000, respectively due to Amex. Amex has agreed to defer all charges incurred by NXT since March 2000 until December 31, 2000.

  Pursuant to the Agreement between the Company and Amex, NXT is required to reimburse Amex a $350,000 advance made to NXT in 1995. Such reimbursement is non-interest bearing and is payable in equal monthly installments in the amount of $7,292 commencing January 1, 1998 and continuing for an additional 47 months thereafter. Amex has agreed to defer reimbursement by NXT from April 2000 until December 31, 2000.

(7)       Stockholders’ Equity

  In May 1999, the Company issued 259,179 shares of common stock to each of PTI and Amex, and 86,393 shares of common stock to the Company’s President, for $4.63 per share, resulting in aggregate proceeds to the Company of $2,800,000.

  In June 1997, the Company entered into two separate Phantom Stock Agreements with two employees. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, they collectively owned 517,266 shares of phantom stock. Upon the occurrence of certain events, these agreements provide for payment to the phantom shareholders, in an amount equal to the then fair market value of the Company’s common stock for each share of phantom stock. The payment may be made in cash or common stock, at the option of the Company. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, NXT recorded in operating expenses $0 and $1,360,000, compensation income (expense), respectively, for the phantom shares based on changes in the fair value of the Company’s common stock.

  Warrants to purchase 366,100 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.33 which were issued to PTI on July 1, 1997 in connection with the issuance of common stock remain outstanding at December 31, 1999. These warrants are subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and expire in July 2002. As of September 30, 2000, none of these warrants have been exercised.

  On October 14, 1997, Amex purchased 1,350,007 shares of common stock (the “Amex Investment”). As consideration for the common stock, Amex entered into the amended Agreement in which Amex agreed to waive $1,200,000 of future charges for transaction transport services and related fees, which was recognized as prepaid contract costs. During 1998, the Company incurred all of the charges related to the prepaid contract costs. Also under the terms of the amended Agreement, Amex committed to a variety of concessions to NXT, including a reduction or waiver of certain other future charges and fees, valued at approximately $1,800,000, which are classified as intangible contract benefits in the accompanying financial statements and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the five-year term of the amended Agreement. Amortization for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was $324,000.

(8)       Retirement Plan

  During 1997, the Company established a qualified defined contribution retirement plan under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k). The participants may contribute percentage or dollar amounts of salary each pay period, subject to annual federal limitations. The Company may contribute amounts to the plan on a discretionary basis.

  Effective January 1, 2000, the Company amended the 401(k) plan to include an employer match for all participating employees. The Company contributes 25% of the first 4% of the employee’s contribution not to exceed 1% of the employee’s annual salary. Employer contributions vest over a four year period beginning with the employee’s date of hire. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company has contributed approximately $14,600 in matching funds.

28




(9)       Significant Customers and Concentration of Credit Risk

  During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company’s two largest customers accounted for substantially all of the Company’s revenues or approximately 78% and 81%, respectively, of the Company’s revenues. Accounts receivable from these related customers also represent 85% and 73%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts receivable balances as of September 30, 2000 and 1999.

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information is prepared using the purchase method of accounting. For the purpose of the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information presented below, the purchase price has been calculated based upon the price of $1.875 per share of USWD Common Stock.

Under the purchase method of accounting, tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price, including estimated direct fees and expenses related to the acquisition over the net assets acquired represents goodwill, and is classified as goodwill, on the accompanying unaudited pro forma balance sheet. The estimated fair values and useful lives are based on valuation by management which is subject to final adjustment.

The Pro Forma Condensed Balance Sheet of USWD as at September 30, 2000 reflects the financial position of USWD after giving effect to the purchase of NXT and assumes the acquisition took place on September 30, 2000. The Pro Forma Condensed Statement of Operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000 and the three months ended September 30, 2000 assumes the purchase occurred on July 1, 1999.
