NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of North American DataCom, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2001 and its results of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2001 including the notes thereto

Nature of Business

The Company intends to provide communications and information technology services with an emphasis on broadband fiber optic and wireless telecommunications services that support enterprise data storage solutions, primarily for customers in southern United States.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain estimates used by management are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the economic environment. These include estimates of the realization of investments, long-lived assets and deferred tax assets. Each of these estimates, as well as the related amounts reported in the financial statements, are sensitive to near term changes in the factors used to determine them. A significant change in any one of those factors could result in the determination of amounts different from those reported in the consolidated financial statements and the effect of such difference could be material.

Investments

Investments are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Realized gains and losses, and declines in value judged to be other then temporary, are included in other income. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method and interest earned is included in other income.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when services are rendered.

Taxes on Income

Income taxes are calculated using the liability method specified by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“SFAS 109”). Under SFAS 109, the Company provides for estimated income taxes payable or refundable on current year income tax returns as well as the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carry forwards. Measurement of deferred income taxes is based upon enacted tax laws and tax rates, with the measurement of deferred income tax assets reduced by estimated amounts of tax benefits not likely to be realized.

Loss per Share

Basic and diluted loss per common share have been computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the three-month periods ending September 30, 2001 and 2000. Common stock equivalents consisting of stock options, convertible notes, convertible preferred stock and warrants were not considered in either period, as their effect would be anti-dilutive. The maximum number of shares assuming full conversion from the Company’s per share computations is as follows:

September 30, 2001

September 30, 2000

Stock Options 13,751,916 14,611,178
Convertible Notes 47,208 -
Convertible Preferred Stock 5,453,851 400,000
19,252,975 15,011,178

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are expensed when incurred. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of depreciable assets using the straight-line method. Useful lives for property and equipment are as follows:

Years

Conduit and optic fiber

25

Communications equipment and wireless towers

3-10

Computers

5

Other Equipment

3-10

Leasehold improvements

Term of lease

Software

3

The carrying values of long-lived assets are periodically reviewed by the Company and impairments would be recognized if the expected future operating non-discounted cash flows derived from an asset were less than its carrying value.

Licenses

Licenses relate to the Company’s FCC License to provide personal communications and paging services. Generally, amortization begins with the commencement of service to customers and is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 15 years.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, accounts payable and payable to director approximate their respective fair values.

Business Lines

Fiber Optic and Broadband Wireless Network: The Company is building a fiber optic and broadband wireless communications network, which will allow for the high-speed transmission of large amounts of data. It is expected that businesses, government agencies and institutions will use the Company’s network as a preferred alternative to existing telephone and satellite data transmission systems. The Company installed a wireless network connecting Iuka, MS to Atlanta, GA and Memphis, TN during fiscal 2001. This wireless network currently operates at a DS-3 bandwidth level.

The Company plans to assist corporations, government agencies and institutions in the design and installation of their own internal telecommunications networks. The Company plans to use state-of-the-art technology, which will enable its clients to transfer and receive large amounts of data at high speed between both internal and external sources.

In March 2000, the Company entered into an agreement with Qwest Communications in which the Company purchased 504 miles of conduit installed along the CSX railroad track from New Orleans, Louisiana to Mobile, Alabama, and from Pensacola, Florida to Jacksonville, Florida. Fiber optic cable has not yet been installed within such conduit purchased from Qwest Communications. The agreement with Qwest calls for payments of approximately $15 million over the course of the agreement, all which is currently past due by the Company. Qwest has declared a default, but has not initiated arbitration or other proceedings to recover the conduit.

In August 2000, the Company entered into an agreement with a third-party contractor to lay fiber conduit between Atlanta, Georgia and Chattanooga, Tennessee and from Chattanooga to Memphis, Tennessee. The contractor did not complete the conduit installation. The Company has not made any payments under this agreement. This agreement was terminated due to changes in the schedule of installations. The Company plans to amend certain terms of the agreement based upon new schedules. The Company has installed 24 miles of conduit, of which approximately 8 miles was sold to Bell South in fiscal 2001, providing access to the Company’s enterprise data center in Iuka, Mississippi.

While the Company is building its fiber network, the Company has installed a communications tower to provide wireless connectivity, initially at 500 MBPS, from the Company’s facility in Iuka, Mississippi into the nationwide Internet and telecommunications system through Atlanta and Memphis. This provides the Company with an interim capability to test market its enterprise data storage services, web-hosting services, and competitive local exchange carrier (CLEC) and interstate exchange carrier (IXC) telephone services to select markets.

Internet Access: As of September 30, 2001, the Company provides Internet access services to 1,455 customers in Mississippi, Tennessee and Alabama. Internet services provided by the Company include basic dial-up access to the Internet through standard computer modems, high speed Internet access, and the design and hosting of websites for customers. As the Company’s fiber optic and broadband wireless network expands, the Company will attempt to market its Internet access provider services to businesses and retail customers along the route of the network.

Digital and Alpha Paging Services: Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Action Communications, Inc. (“Action”), the Company provides digital and alpha numeric paging services to nine southeastern states and is expanding its coverage area to include portions of the eastern and southwestern United States. As a specialized mobile radio carrier, Action also provides dispatch, telephone and global position system services.

Remote Data Storage: During fiscal 2000, the Company took delivery of $575,000 of equipment that will allow third parties to store and access data stored in digital form on computer systems maintained and operated by the Company in its facility in Iuka, Mississippi.

In November 2000, the Company was awarded a $300,000 research contract to demonstrate commercial applications of statewide remote sensing data. The Company worked with PixSell, Inc., a Mississippi information technology company, and the University of Mississippi’s Department of Computer and Information Science. Under the six-month contract, which was completed in September 2001, the Company expanded and enhanced the existing “Mississippi View” data management system. The View System was developed by PixSell to provide greater access to Mississippi statewide remote sensing satellite and imagery. The enhanced archived View System makes it a Real Time asset for education, state agencies, and MSCI commercial users. MSCI is a partnership between the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the University of Mississippi, and high technology businesses. NASA and the State of Mississippi fund MSCI projects. The mission of MSCI is to develop a remote sensing industry in Mississippi by commercializing the technologies developed by NASA at the Stennis Space Center in Hancock County, Mississippi.

Application Service Provider: In August 2001, the Company reached an agreement with Infusion Software Group, LLC (Infusion) to form Global PTX, LLC. The Company and Infusion have established an Application Service Provider business to design, develop and implement data warehousing and data mining applications. Global PTX will establish Private Trade Exchanges focusing on providing customers with an “end-to-end” solution for their business strategies. Initial development activities will be designed to target the Manufacturing and Retail Business Industry Sectors, specifically focused on vendor/customer supply chain management. Infusion is a specialized software and marketing service provider to enterprises throughout the United States.

At present, the Company provides four distinct services to consumers and small businesses: Internet access, digital and alpha paging services, remote data storage and application services.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations (“SFAS 141”) and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”), which collectively address business combinations and intangible assets acquired individually, with a group of other assets, or in a business combination. SFAS 141 and 142 will become effective July 1, 2002 and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

3. Investments:

The Company’s investments are classified as available-for-sale. The amortized cost, gross unrealized losses and estimated fair value, less the option price of $0.12 per share, for these investments were as follows at September 30, 2001 and June 30, 2001.

Fiber optic cable has not yet been installed within such conduit purchased from Qwest Communications. The agreement with Qwest calls for payments by the Company of approximately $15 million over the course of the agreement, all of which is currently past due. Qwest has declared a default, but has not initiated arbitration or other proceedings to recover the conduit. The $15 million became due and payable on March 31, 2001. Previously, the Company had recorded a discount on the note payable of $723,109, which was fully amortized into expense at March 31, 2001.

The Company has installed 24 miles of conduit, of which approximately 8 miles was sold to Bell South in February 2001, providing access to the Company’s enterprise data center in Iuka, Mississippi.

5. Other Assets:

Other assets consist of the following items as of:

For the period ended

In July 2000, the Company and Global Fiber Optic and Wireless Communications, Ltd. (“Global”) each advanced $200,000 for developing a joint venture to provide a 4,000 mile fiber optic communications and Internet network in Turkey. The Company and Global will each have a fifty (50%) percent interest in the joint venture. The Company will be required to provide electronic and communications technologies, while Global will provide rights-of-way and other real estate as needed in Turkey. Currently, the advances are being used by the proposed joint venture to purchase rights-of-way and other assets to be utilized in the future operations of the joint venture. The advance is guaranteed by the majority shareholder and repayment is secured by certain Company payables to the majority shareholder.

In August 2001, the Company reached an agreement with Infusion Software Group, LLC (Infusion) to form Global PTX, LLC. The Company and Infusion have established an Application Service Provider business to design, develop and implement data warehousing and data mining applications. Global PTX will establish Private Trade Exchanges focusing on providing customers with an “end-to-end” solution for their business strategies. Initial development activities will be designed to target the Manufacturing and Retail Business Industry Sectors, specifically focused on vendor/customer supply chain management. Infusion is a specialized software and marketing service provider to enterprises throughout the United States. During the quarter ended September 30, 2001, the Company invested $93,000 in this venture (See Note 7).

6. Commitments:

In March 2001, the Company agreed to a new 20-year lease, effective January 1, 1999, with the State of Mississippi for its main facilities in Iuka, Mississippi. This lease provides the Company with 25,000 square feet of office and equipment space at the former National Aeronautics and Space Administration facility. The State, acting through the Mississippi Development Authority (MDA), has also granted the Company a 10-year right of first refusal to lease an additional 75,000 square feet at the Iuka facility, to accommodate the Company's expansive business plan.

The Company also leases approximately 3,000 square feet of office space in Denver, Colorado at an annual rent of approximately $36,000, which is used primarily for sales and marketing purposes. The lease expires November 30, 2003.

The Company has agreed to sell to the majority shareholder up to 5,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at $1,000 per share. As of September 30, 2001, 2,003 such shares were sold to the shareholder.

The Company has one employment agreement with the Vice President of Operations, which expires December 31, 2001. In addition to a base salary, the agreement provides the employee options to acquire the Company's stock.
