5 MYRIENT, INC. (Formerly known as LMKI, Inc.) Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements For the three and nine months ended May 31, 2001 and 2000 (Unaudited) NOTE 1. MANAGEMENT'S REPRESENTATION: The management of Myrient, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company" or "Myrient") (formerly known as LMKI, Inc.) without audit has prepared the consolidated financial statements included herein. The accompanying unaudited financial statements consolidate the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. In the opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included and were of a normal recurring nature, and the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly the financial position as of May 31, 2001, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2001 and May 30, 2000. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. NOTE 2. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Myrient is a Nevada Corporation engaged in providing high-speed Internet access, data, voice and video services to individuals and businesses. NOTE 3. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Going Concern The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has negative working capital of $17,603,619, liabilities from the underpayment of payroll taxes (see Note 8), a stockholders' deficit of $15,240,607, notes in default (see Notes 4 and 7), and losses from operations through May 31, 2001. The Company hopes to continue to increase revenues from additional revenue sources and increase margins as a result of amending its contracts with vendors and other cost cutting measures. In the absence of significant revenues and profits, the Company intends to fund operations through additional debt and equity financing arrangements which management believes may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital, and other cash requirements for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2001. Therefore, the Company may be required to seek additional funds to finance its long-term operations. The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there are no assurances that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results. 6 These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Principals of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Myrient, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. Risks and Uncertainties The Company operates in a highly competitive industry that is subject to intense competition, government regulation and rapid technological change. The Company's operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties, including financial, operational, technological, regulatory and other risks associated with an emerging business, including the potential risk of business failure. Revenue Recognition Fees for high-speed Internet access, data, voice and video services are recognized as services are provided. Fees charged for set-ups of new customers are recognized with the first month of services provided. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue represents billings in advance for fees related to high-speed Internet access, data, voice, and video services relating to future periods. The Company recognizes deferred revenue in the statement of operations as the service is provided. The Company has billed but not recognized approximately $816,000 of deferred revenue, as the related services have not yet been performed as of May 31, 2001. Net Loss Per Common Share The Company has adopted Statement of Accounting of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128") "Earnings per Share". Under SFAS 128, basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The Company net loss has been increased for the effect of accrued dividends to preferred stockholders (see Note 11). Stock options and warrants outstanding are not considered common stock equivalents, as the effect on net loss per share would be anti-dilutive. 7 Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for non-employee stock based compensation under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123"), SFAS 123 defines a fair value based method of accounting for stock based compensation. However, SFAS 123 allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost related to stock and stock options issued to employees using the intrinsic method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25("APB 25"), "Accounting for Stock issued to Employees." Under APB 25, compensation cost, if any, is recognized over the respective vesting period based on the difference, on the date of grant, between the fair value of the Company's common stock and the grant price. Entities electing to remain with the accounting method of APB 25 must make pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share, as if the fair value method of accounting defined in SFAS 123 had been applied. The Company has elected to account for its stock based compensation to employees under APB 25. In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44 ("FIN 44"), "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation," an interpretation of APB 25. FIN 44 clarifies the application of APB 25 for (a) the definition of employee for purposes of applying APB 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a non-compensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequences for various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. FIN 44 is effective July 1, 2000, but certain provisions cover specific events that occur after either December 15, 1998, or January 12, 2000. The adoption of FIN 44 did not have a material effect on the financial statements. Segment Information The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 ("SFAS No. 131"), "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," during fiscal 1999. SFAS 131 establishes standards for the way that public companies report information about operating segments and related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers in annual consolidated financial statements. The Company views its operations and manages its business as principally one segment. Comprehensive Income The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130"), "Reporting Comprehensive Income." SFAS 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The adoption of SFAS 130 has not materially impacted the Company's financial position or results of operations, as the Company has no items of comprehensive income. Website Development Costs In March 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-2, "Accounting for Web Site Development Costs" ("EITF 00-2") to be applicable to all web site development costs incurred for the quarter beginning after June 30, 2000. The consensus states that for specific web site development costs, the accounting for such costs should be accounted for under AICPA Statement of Position 98-1 (SOP 98-1), "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." The adoption of EITF 00-2 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. 8 Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Effective September 1, 2000, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS 137 and 138. The new accounting standard requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. This statement, as amended by SFAS 137, is effective for financial statements for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company has determined that there is no impact on its results of operations or financial position as a result of adopting this standard. The Company recognized interest expense of $151,429 related to derivative liability as of the quarter ended February 28, 2001, but has reversed this expense in the current quarter ended May 31, 2001, due to the fact the Company has determined that SFAS 133 does not apply to its financial instruments. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition," which outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The effective date of this pronouncement is the fourth quarter of the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 1999. The Company has determined that there is no impact on its results of operations or financial position as a result of adopting this standard. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications were made to prior period amounts, enabling them to conform to current period presentation. NOTE 4. RELATED PARTY NOTES PAYABLE Stockholders From time to time, the Company borrows funds from several of its stockholders for working capital purposes. During the nine months ended May 31, 2001, the Company had principal borrowings of approximately $1,443,091 from various stockholders and made principal repayments of approximately $109,718. Certain notes require monthly payments ranging from $5,000 to $40,000 with all principal and interest due on maturity dates through May 2001. The remaining notes require principal and interest on demand. The notes accrue interest ranging from 8% to 21%. The outstanding balance on these notes totaled $1,792,586, with accrued interest of $37,941, which is included in accrued interest payable to related party at May 31, 2001. As of the date of the report, certain notes were in default. The notes payable are shown as long-term debt as the note holders have agreed not to demand payment in the next twelve months. During May 2001, the Company borrowed $150,000 for working capital purposes from a related party. The borrowings and all accrued interest are due on demand. 9 During the nine months ended May 31, 2001, note holders converted $278,759 of notes payable into 1,985,396 shares of the Company's common stock (based on the closing bid price of the Company's common stock on the date of conversion)(see Note 10). Former Employee From time to time, the Company borrowed funds from its former Chairman and CEO (who resigned August 8, 2000) for working capital purposes. After considering the adjustments made in connection with a severance agreement between the Company and the former Chairman and CEO (see Note 7), the outstanding balance on this note at May 31, 2001 totaled $1,682,201 plus accrued interest of $225,838 (which is included in accrued interest payable to related party at May 31, 2001). The note, as amended, requires monthly payments ranging from $125,000 to $252,000 with all principal and interest due by September 15, 2001 and accrues interest at 8%, and is secured by 5,000,000 shares of stock held by the Company's President (see Note 8). This note payable is shown as long-term debt as the note is subordinated to the $1,000,000 convertible note payable (see Note 6) and no payments will be made until the note is paid in full. NOTE 5. LINE OF CREDIT During January 2001, the Company received a commitment for a line of credit of up to $5,000,000 for working capital purposes from a financial institution. This line requires the President to personally secure the line with 1,000,000 shares of common stock. In addition, interest on the line is accrued at 10% with a maturity date of six months from the date of each advance and no prepayment penalties. During the nine months ended May 31, 2001, the Company has drawn $792,735 on this line of credit of which the lender has converted $294,000 into 2,177,778 shares of restricted common stock (based on the closing bid price of the Company's common stock on the date of conversion). In April 2001, the Company's revolving line of credit agreement for $598,735 was renegotiated with a financial institution as a note agreement (the "Note"). The Note bears interest at the current monthly prime rate plus two percent (2%) with interest payable monthly. Repayment of note will begin in June 2001 with six principal payments of $18,750 each; in December 2001 with six principal payments of $28,125 each; and one principal payment of $317,485 in May 2002. The Note matures on May 30, 2002. The Note is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. NOTE 6. CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE In April 2001, the Company's convertible note agreement (the "Note") with a financial institution for $1,000,000 was renegotiated. The Note bears interest at the current monthly prime rate plus two percent (2%) with interest payable monthly. Repayment of the note will begin in June 2001 with six principal payments of $31,250 each; in December 2001 with six principal payments of $46,875 each; and one principal payment of $437,500 in May 2002. The Note matures on May 30, 2002. The Note is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets and is convertible to common stock if not paid by May 30, 2002, at a share price equal to the lesser of the share price on the date of the agreement or at a 30% discount of the share price on the date of conversion. The Note requires the Company to maintain certain net worth and solvency ratio covenants, with which the Company was not in compliance as of May 31, 2001. The Company is currently working with the lender to resolve this matter. 10 During the nine months ended May 31, 2001, the Company borrowed $500,000 for working capital purposes from a related party. The borrowings are due January 16, 2003, accrue interest at prime plus two percent (2%) with interest payable in semi-annual payments beginning June 16, 2001. The note holder may convert the principal portion into shares of restricted common stock in traunches of $100,000 every 30 days, except under a default condition, where the entire balance due may be converted. The note is convertible into restricted common stock at a price equal to the fair market value on date of conversion, less a 15% restricted common stock discount, as defined. During the nine months ended May 31, 2001, the note holder converted $100,000 of principal into 869,565 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.115 (based on the closing bid price of the Company's common stock on the date of conversion). NOTE 7. SEVERANCE AGREEMENTS The Company entered into a severance agreement effective August 8, 2000 and restated and amended November 15, 2000, with the former Chairman and CEO, as follows: o the Company agreed to pay the former Chairman and CEO a severance amount of $120,000 payable in twelve equal monthly installments beginning August 10, 2000. Through May 31, 2001, the Company has made payments in the amount of $120,000, of which $110,000 was paid during the nine months ended May 31, 2001, in connection with the severance liability; o the Company and the former Chairman and CEO agreed to offset a note payable to the former Chairman and CEO with certain accounts receivable in the amount of $600,000 from SpeeDSL, a related party (see Notes 4 and 10); o the former Chairman and CEO agreed to return 15,000,000 shares of common stock and the Company would increase his note payable balance by $1,000,000 (see Note 4); o the Company's President agreed to secure the note payable to the former Chairman and CEO with 5,000,000 shares of common stock held personally by him (see Note 4); and o the former Chairman and CEO agreed to cancel 2,000,000 options that were outstanding at August 31, 2000. Effective August 8, 2000 the Company entered into a severance agreement with its former Chief Operating Officer ("COO"). The agreement requires the Company to pay the former COO a severance amount of $120,000 payable in twelve equal monthly installments beginning August 10, 2000. Through May 31, 2001, the Company has made payments in the amount of $120,000, of which $30,000 was paid during the three months ended May 31, 2001 in connection with the severance liability. NOTE 8. ACCRUED PAYROLL TAXES The Company has recorded an accrual for past due payroll taxes as of May 31, 2001 due to the under-payment of the Company's payroll tax liability. As a result, the Company has accrued approximately $1,164,900 related to payroll taxes and accrued payroll and related liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet at May 31, 2001. The Company is currently negotiating installment payments to settle this debt and remaining current with payroll tax liability for calendar year 2001. 11 NOTE 9. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Preferred Stock During the nine months ended May 31, 2001, the Company has accrued $106,460 of dividends in connection with the outstanding Preferred Series A shares, of which all accrued dividends were converted into common stock in connection with the conversion of 3,650 shares of Preferred Series A (see below). Short-Swing Profits During November 2000, it was discovered that the former CFO and beneficial owner (as defined by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), had profited from purchases and subsequent sales of the Company's common stock held for less than six (6) months (a "short-swing" profit). Pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company acted to recover these profits from the former CFO. As a result, the Company received $16,380, which has been credited to additional paid-in capital as a contribution to shareholders' deficit.

The options vest through May 2003 and are exercisable through January 2011.

These shares were issued in February 2001 and will be recognized in the statement of operations as earned over a one-year period; therefore, the Company has recorded this as deferred compensation in the accompanying balance sheet.

NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The Company is in negotiations with the former Chief Executive Officer to resolve issues related to the severance agreement (see Note 7). 14 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT: This quarterly report on Form 10-QSB may contain statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, which statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are statements that include projections, predictions, expectations and beliefs about future events or results or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. Such statements are often characterized by the use of qualifying words (and their derivatives) such as "expect," "believe," "estimate," "plan," "project," "anticipate," or other statements concerning opinions or judgment of the Company and its management about future events. Factors that could influence the accuracy of such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the financial success or changing strategies of the Company's customers, actions of government regulators, the level of market interest rate and general economic conditions. All forward-looking statements included herein are based on information available to the Company on the date hereof, and the Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. It is important to note that the Company's actual results could differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements due to the factors cited above. As a result of these factors, there can be no assurance the Company will not experience material fluctuations in future operating results on a quarterly or annual basis, which would materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. GENERAL OVERVIEW The Company's operating results have fluctuated in the past and may in the future fluctuate significantly, depending upon a variety of factors, including the timely deployment and expansion of new network architectures, the incurrence of related capital costs, variability and length of the sales cycle associated with the Company's product and service offerings, the receipt of new value-added network services and consumer services subscriptions and the introduction of new services by the Company and its competitors. Additional factors that may contribute to variability of operating results include: the pricing and mix of services offered by the Company; customer retention rate; market acceptance of new and enhanced versions of the Company's services; changes in pricing policies by the Company's competitors; the Company's ability to obtain sufficient supplies of sole or limited-source components; user demand for network and Internet access services; balancing of network usage over a 24-hour period; the ability to manage potential growth and expansion; the ability to identify, acquire and integrate successfully suitable acquisition candidates; and charges related to acquisitions. In response to competitive pressures, the Company may take certain pricing or marketing actions that could have a material adverse affect on the Company's business. As a result, variations in the timing and amounts of revenue could have a material adverse affect on the Company's quarterly operating results. Due to the foregoing factors, the Company believes the period-to-period comparisons of its operating results are not necessarily meaningful and that such comparisons cannot be relied upon as indicators of future performance. In the event that the Company's operating results in any future period fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, the trading price of the Company's common stock would likely decline. 15 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For three months ended May 31, 2001: - ------------------------------------ Revenue Revenue totaled approximately $3,782,311 for the three months ended May 31, 2001, a $1,160,957 increase over revenue of $2,621,354 for the three months ended May 31, 2000. These increases reflect the growth in revenue from Real Private Network(TM) (RPN(TM)), Broadband Internet Access, Internet and Intranet based Web Hosting, Hosted Application Services, Intelligent Routing and Content Delivery Services, Network and Systems Management, Professional Services, from marketing arrangements with new strategic partners, and sale of equipment to support these product offerings. Cost of Sales Cost of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2001 was $2,319,593, an increase of 788,266 from $1,531,327 for the three months ended May 31, 2000. Cost of sales consists primarily of access charges from local exchange carriers, backbone and Internet access costs, and the cost of customer equipment to support network systems. Gross profit percentage decreased to 39% in 2001 from 42% in 2000. The gross profit percentage decrease is due to the re-focus of selling efforts to Managed Services, which have an increased upfront cost for customized solutions. In an effort to reduce the monthly minimum usage fees of Internet service provider access, the Company is continuously negotiating new contracts with various providers to obtain competitive pricing; as a result the Company expects its gross profit percentage to increase. Selling Expense Selling expense consists primarily of personnel expenses, including salary and commissions, and costs for customer support functions. Marketing and sales expense was $466,989 for the three months ended May 31, 2001 and $1,216,654 for the three months ended May 31, 2000, which represents a $749,665 decrease. During the quarter ended May 31, 2000 the Company was focused on garnering market share of the business class broadband market with increased personnel and incentive programs. The current executive management of the Company has directed its sales focus from reselling retail based business connectivity to higher margin Managed Services thereby significantly reducing selling costs. General and Administrative Expense General and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel expense, rent and professional fees. General and administrative expense was $1,571,286 for the three months May 31, 2001 and $2,686,441 for the three months ended May 31, 2000, which represents a $1,115,155 decrease. As of May 31, 2001, general and administrative expense primarily consisted of $486,146 in administrative wages, technical support engineers and related taxes and benefits; $234,728 in depreciation expense; $465,998 in operating equipment leases; $123,602 for professional fees; $137,668 in rent expense; $74,116 in telephone expenses; $3,007 of non-cash charged for the vesting of previously issued options for services rendered and for compensation; $165,533 of non-cash charges for issuance of stock in lieu of compensation, $170,874 for research and development expenses, and $217,114 in other operating expenses; offset by $507,500 for the reduction of costs expensed in the prior year. The Company is continuing aggressive steps to decrease future general and administrative expenses. 16 Interest Expense Interest expense was ($8,677) for the three months ended May 31, 2001 and $116,697 for the three months ended May 31, 2000. The net decrease in interest expense is substantially related to the reversal of $151,429 of derivative interest expense in the three months ended May 31, 2001 for the embedded conversion feature on convertible notes payable which was recorded to interest expense in the three months ended February 28, 2001, as such entry was not required under SFAS 133. The remaining amount of interest expense in 2001 of $143,915 is directly related to the Company acquiring working capital through a convertible note payable and related party notes payable. Interest expense is comprised of interest on capital leases of $25,169, interest on the Company's line of credit of $16,560, interest on notes payable of $72,623, and interest on convertible note payable of $29,563, net of interest income of approximately $1,163. Net Loss As a result of the above factors, the Company incurred a net loss for the three-month period ended May 31, 2001 of $566,880 or $0.02 per share compared to $2,929,765 or $0.08 per share for the three months ended May 31, 2000. The Company's near term focus is to become profitable by negotiating provider costs and reducing all expenses to minimum levels. However, we cannot assure that the Company will be profitable in the future. For nine months ended May 31, 2001: - ----------------------------------- Revenue Revenue totaled approximately $12,323,423 for the nine months ended May 31, 2001, a $6,070,903 increase over revenue of $6,252,520 for the nine months ended May 31, 2000. These increases reflect the growth in revenue from Real Private Network(TM) (RPN(TM)), Broadband Internet Access, Internet and Intranet based Web Hosting, Hosted Application Services, Intelligent Routing and Content Delivery Services, Network and Systems Management, Professional Services, from marketing arrangements with new strategic partners, and sale of equipment to support these product offerings. Cost of Sales Cost of sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2001 was $8,236,094, an increase of 4,948,425 from $3,287,669 for the nine months ended May 31, 2000. Cost of sales consists primarily of access charges from local exchange carriers, backbone and Internet access costs, and the cost of customer equipment to support network systems. Gross profit percentage decreased to 33% in 2001 from 47% in 2000. In an effort to reduce the monthly minimum usage fees of Internet service provider access, the Company is continuously negotiating new contracts with various providers to obtain competitive pricing; as a result the Company expects its gross profit percentage to increase. 17 Selling Expense Selling expense consists primarily of personnel expenses, including salary and commissions, and costs for customer support functions. Marketing and sales expense was $2,383,123 for the nine months ended May 31, 2001 and $2,358,441 for the nine months ended May 31, 2000, which represents a $24,682 increase. During the nine months ended May 31, 2000 the company was focused on garnering market share of the business class broadband market with increased personnel and incentive programs. The current executive management of the Company has directed its sales focus from reselling retail based business connectivity to higher margin Managed Services thereby significantly controlling overhead costs. General and Administrative Expense General and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel expense, rent and professional fees. General and administrative expense was $5,612,517 for the nine months May 31, 2001 and $5,127,478 for the nine months ended May 31, 2000, which represents a $485,039 increase. As of May 31, 2001, general and administrative expense primarily consisted of $1,949,376 in administrative wages, technical support engineers and related taxes and benefits; $700,438 in depreciation expense; $569,491 in operating equipment leases; $250,655 in systems implementation and costs; $657,651 for professional fees; $423,462 in rent expense; $215,396 in telephone expenses; $313,591 of non-cash charges for the vesting of previously issued options for services rendered and for compensation; $284,139 of non-cash charges for issuance of stock in lieu of compensation and services, $190,679 for research and development expense, and $565,139 in other operating expenses; offset by $507,500 for the reduction of costs expensed in the prior year. The Company is continuing aggressive steps to decrease future general and administrative expenses. Interest Expense Interest expense was $342,990 for the nine months ended May 31, 2001 and $231,551 for the nine months ended May 31, 2000. The increase in interest expense is substantially related to the company acquiring working capital through a convertible note payable and related party notes payable. Interest is comprised of interest on capital leases of $32,356, interest on the Company's line of credit of $65,816, interest on notes payable of $147,104, and interest on convertible note payable of $103,201, net of interest income of approximately $5,487. Net Loss As a result of the above factors, the Company incurred a net loss for the nine months ended May 31, 2001 of $4,251,301 or $0.12 per share compared to $4,752,619 or $0.13 per share for the nine months ended May 31, 2000. The Company's near term focus is to become profitable by negotiating provider costs and reducing all expenses to minimum levels. However, we cannot assure that the Company will be profitable in the future. 18 STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT Stockholders' deficit increased by $5,007,160, from $(10,233,447) as of August 31, 2000 to ($15,240,607) as of May 31, 2001. The increase is attributable to the nine month net loss of $4,251,301, dividends accrued on preferred stock of $106,460, the retirement of the former CEO's 15,000,000 shares of common stock for $1,000,000, issuance of common stock for the conversion of preferred stock and accrued dividends of $944,100; offset by the issuance of common stock in connection with the conversion of debt for $672,759, cash received of $16,380 for short-swing profits, issuance of stock of $284,139 in lieu of wages and services, vesting of previously issued options and warrants of $313,591, and the receipt of cash for stock sale of $8,505. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES Assets increased by $2,383,385 from $6,934,378 as of August 31, 2000 to $9,317,763 as of May 31, 2001. The increase was due primarily to increases in accounts receivable of $1,087,731, net property and equipment of $1,166,667, cash of $256,962; offset by a decrease in other assets of $127,975. Liabilities increased by $7,390,545 from $17,167,825 as of August 31, 2000 to $24,558,370 as of May 31, 2001. The increase was primarily to increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $3,639,891, lines of credit of $500,000, notes payable of $598,735, payroll and payroll related liabilities of $607,544, notes payable-related parties of $2,304,614, convertible long-term note payable of $400,000, and other liabilities of $6,535; offset by the conversion of lines of credit debt of $600,000 and capital leases of $66,774. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES General Overall, the Company had positive cash flows of $256,962 in the nine months ended May 31, 2001 resulting from $378,766 of cash provided by operating activities and $1,634,219 of cash provided by the Company's financing activities, offset by $1,756,023 of cash used in investing activities. Cash Flows from Operations Net cash provided by operating activities of $378,766 in the nine months ended May 31, 2001 was primarily due to the increase of operating liabilities, principally accounts payable and accrued expenses of $3,639,891, payroll and related taxes of $607,544; accrued interest to related parties of $155,302; vesting of previously issued options and warrants of $313,591; the fair market value of stock issued for salaries and services of $284,139; other assets of $16,893 and depreciation expense of $700,438; offset by the net loss of $4,251,301 and an increase in accounts receivable of $1,087,731. 19 Cash Flows from Investing Net cash used in investing activities of $1,756,023 in the nine months ended May 31, 2001 funded purchases of property and equipment of $1,867,105, offset by a decrease in deposits of $111,082. Cash Flows from Financing Net cash provided by financing activities of $1,634,219 in the nine months ended May 31, 2001 was primarily due to the proceeds from related party notes payable of $2,093,091, borrowings on lines of credit of $792,735, employee purchase of common stock for $8,505, the short-swing profits of $16,380; offset by the repurchase of preferred stock in the amount of $500,000 and repayments on notes payable and capitalized leases obligations of $776,492. To date, the Company has satisfied its cash requirements primarily through debt and equity financings and capitalized lease financings. The Company's principal uses of cash are to fund working capital requirements and to service capital lease and debt financing obligations. The Company believes that it will generate positive cash flow from operations within the next twelve months. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in securing additional financing, and if secured, it will be sufficient to satisfy working capital needs. LONG-TERM FINANCING The Company believes that its anticipated funds from operations will not be sufficient to fund its working capital and other requirements through August 31, 2001. Therefore, the Company will be required to seek additional funds either through debt or equity financing to finance its long-term operations ("Additional Funds"). Should the Company fail to raise the Additional Funds, the Company will have insufficient funds for the Company's intended operations for the next twelve months that may have a material adverse effect on the Company's long-term results of operations. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES As of August 31, 2000, the Company had been billed approximately $2,744,000 from a third party for consultation services in connection with the implementation of certain software programs. The Company has retained the services of an outside consultant to examine the appropriateness of such services and related charges. As of May 31, 2001, the Company has not made any payments related to this charge and has accrued approximately $2,744,000 in accounts payable in the accompanying balance sheet. As of August 31, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement with a third party for software licenses and promotional support for approximately $1,261,000, with the intent to resell the related licenses to customers. As of May 31, 2001, the Company has not made any payments pursuant to this agreement and has accrued approximately $1,261,000 in accounts payable in the accompanying balance sheet. The Company is currently in the process of trying to renegotiate the amount due with the third party. The Company has recorded an accrual for past due payroll taxes due to the under-payment of the Company's payroll tax liability. As a result, the Company has accrued approximately $1,120,000 related to payroll taxes under accrued payroll and related liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet at May 31, 2001. The Company is currently negotiating installment payments to settle this debt and remaining current with payroll tax liability for calendar year 2001. CAPITAL EXPENDITURES The Company has no future capital expenditures of significance planned for the remainder of its fiscal year 2001. 20 GOING CONCERN The Company's independent certified public accountants have stated in their report included in the Form 10-KSB as of August 31, 2000, that since the Company has incurred operating losses in the last two years, has a working capital deficit and a significant stockholders deficit, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. INFLATION Management believes that inflation has not had a material effect on the Company's results of operations. 21 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings The Company may from time to time be involved in various claims, lawsuits, disputes with third parties, actions involving allegations of discrimination, or breach of contract actions incidental to the operation of its business. The Company is not currently involved in any such litigation, which it believes could have a materially adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. Item 2.
