For the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the registrant had revenues of $643,678 and net loss of $583,728. For the quarter ended March 31, 2005, the registrant currently estimates that it had revenues of approximately $262,000 and a net loss of approximately $1,073,000. Results for the 2005 fiscal year remain subject to further adjustment and actual results may differ significantly from the foregoing estimates. This decrease in revenue of $382,000 or 59% is primarily attributed to the following: o the steps we made to address our limited funding that included reductions of our sales, marketing and client consultant staffs that resulted in less installations o concerns from the market regarding the viability of the company's ability to continue as a going concern, particularly with respect to the pending foreclosure suit with PNC Bank, which was finally paid off and satisfied on March 31, 2005.
