INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

 

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Of Burst.com, Inc. and Subsidiaries

 

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Burst.Com, Inc. ( a Delaware corporation) and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated Statements of Operations, Changes in Stockholder's Deficit, and Cash Flows for the year then ended.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on that consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

 

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

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements for December 31, 2003 and 2002 have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficit that raises doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 2.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

 

In our opinion, the 2003 and 2002 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Burst.com, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

ORGANIZATION AND CAPITALIZATION 

 

            Burst.com, Inc. and subsidiaries (“The Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware as Instant Video Technologies, Inc. On January 27, 2000, the Certificate of Incorporations was amended to change the Company’s name to Burst.com, Inc.

 

            The Company’s authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.00001 par value per share, and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.00001 per share.

 

The board of directors has the authority, without action by the Company’s stockholders, to provide for the issuance of preferred stock in one or more classes or series and to designate the rights, preferences and privileges of each class or series, which may be greater than the rights of the common stock. The Company had no preferred stock outstanding as of December 31, 2003 and 2002.

    

BUSINESS

           

The Company licenses burst transmission software and intellectual property for use within commercial, multimedia and interactive environments.  The burst technology allows for time compression and burst transmission of video/audio programming that results in time-savings, network efficiency and superior quality products.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Burst.com, Inc and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Explore Technology, Inc. and Timeshift-TV.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

USE OF ESTIMATES

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S generally accepted accounting principles.  In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and operations for the period.  Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results. The Company’s most significant estimates are those related to the valuation of stock, stock options, and warrants in connection with equity and financing transactions.

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of money market accounts and other short-term investments with an original or remaining term of three months or less.


 

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash.

 

The Company maintains cash balances at several banks. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. From time to time, the Company had cash in financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. 

 

INVESTMENTS

 

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS No. 115) “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”, securities are classified into three categories: held-to maturity, available-for-sale and trading.  The Company’s investments consisted of equity securities classified as available-for-sale.  Accordingly, they were carried at fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 115.  Further, SFAS No. 115 requires that unrealized gains and losses for available-for-sales securities be excluded from earnings and reported, net of deferred income taxes, as other comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had disposed of all of its available for sale securities.

 

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

 

The Company had no component of comprehensive income other than its reported amounts of net loss applicable to holders of common stock.

 

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

 

The Company periodically evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated life of intangible and other long-lived assets, or whether the remaining balance of intangible and other long-lived assets should be evaluated for possible impairment. If and when such factors, events or circumstances indicate that intangible or other long-lived assets should be evaluated for possible impairment, the Company would make an estimate of undiscounted cash flows over the remaining lives of the respective assets in measuring recoverability.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2001, the Company recognized approximately  $385,000 of impairment in leasehold improvements, computers and equipment assets; Further description in Note 4.  There were no impairments recognized in the year ended December 31, 2003 and 2002.


 

 

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”.  Under the guidance of SOP No. 97.2, no revenue is recognized until evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection is probable. License fees and services are generally recognized as revenue ratably over the license period. 

 

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets that range from three to five years.  Replacements, maintenance and repairs, which do not extend the lives of the respective assets are charged to expense as incurred.

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and debt. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their respective estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities and approximate market interest rates of these instruments.

 

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE AND DILUTIVE SECURITIES

 

Earnings (loss) per share is computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share”.  Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income, after deducting preferred stock dividends accumulated during the period, by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period.

           

The following is a summary of the securities that could potentially dilute basic loss per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive.
