                                     PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

GENERAL

        ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY. The Registrant, NeoMedia Technologies, Inc.
("NeoMedia"), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July
29, 1996, to acquire by tax-free merger Dev-Tech Associates, Inc. ("Dev-Tech"),
NeoMedia's predecessor, which was organized in Illinois in December, 1989. In
March, 1996, Dev-Tech's common stock was split, with an aggregate of 2,551,120
shares of common stock being issued in exchange for the 164 then issued and
outstanding shares of common stock. On August 5, 1996, NeoMedia acquired all of
the shares of Dev- Tech in exchange for the issuance of shares of NeoMedia's
common stock to Dev-Tech's stockholders ("Dev-Tech Merger"). Each stockholder of
Dev-Tech received one share of NeoMedia's common stock in exchange for one share
of Dev-Tech's common stock. An aggregate of 2,551,120 shares of NeoMedia's
common stock were issued in the exchange. The Dev-Tech Merger was effected under
applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code as a tax-free transaction to
the corporations and stockholders. As a result of the Dev-Tech Merger, holders
of options and warrants to purchase Dev-Tech's common stock have the right to
purchase NeoMedia's common stock. As an additional result of the Dev-Tech
Merger, NeoMedia is the successor to the business and operations of Dev-Tech. In
November, 1996, a reverse stock split was effected whereby each NeoMedia
shareholder received .90386 shares of common stock for each one share of common
stock then owned.

        In November, 1996, Dev-Tech Migration, Inc., an Illinois corporation
("DTM") and an affiliate of Dev-Tech, was merged into a subsidiary of NeoMedia.
DTM provides migration services. Migration services consist of adapting computer
software that operates only with a specific brand of hardware and operating and
data base software (called a "legacy system"), such as Wang, to operate with
most, if not all brands of hardware and operating software (called an "open
system platform" or an "open system environment"). Management determined that
DTM's services complimented Dev-Tech's services as a systems integrator, and
that the synergies between the two companies would be beneficial. Accordingly,
on November 20, 1996, DTM was merged ("Migration Merger") into NeoMedia
Migration, Inc. ("Migration), a wholly-owned subsidiary of NeoMedia in exchange
for the issuance of shares of NeoMedia's common stock to Charles W. Fritz, the
sole stockholder of DTM and a principal shareholder, officer and director of
NeoMedia. Mr. Charles Fritz received an aggregate of 827,525 shares of common
stock on the basis of one share of DTM's common stock for .90386 share of
NeoMedia's Common Stock. As a result of the Migration Merger, holders of options
to purchase DTM common stock have the right to purchase NeoMedia's common stock.
Accordingly, an aggregate of 330,816 shares of NeoMedia's common stock have been
reserved for issuance upon exercise of such options. The Migration Merger was
also effected under applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code as a tax
free transaction to the corporations and Mr. Fritz. As a result of Migration
Merger, Migration is the successor to the business and operations of DTM.

        These two mergers were accounted for in a manner similar to the pooling
of interests method of accounting using historical book values rather than fair
market value as all entities involved were under common control.

        In August, 1996, Migration formed a wholly-owned subsidiary,
Distribuidora Vallarta, S.A., a Guatemalan corporation where NeoMedia employs
computer software developers and system integrators.

        On September 25, 1997, in accordance with a Stock Purchase Agreement
(the "Allegiant Merger") entered into between the parties, NeoMedia acquired
from George G. Luntz and Gerald L. Willis all of the stock in Allegiant Legacy
Solutions, Inc. ("Allegiant"), which was founded on February 16, 1996. Allegiant
primarily sells licenses to proprietary software tools (including "ADAPT/2000")
that identify, seek and automatically correct date data that is stored in
various formats across both program code and specific data files. In addition to
converting legacy systems written in COBOL computer language to comply with the
Year 2000 requirements, ADAPT/2000 works to convert

                                       1

<PAGE>


other restrictive source and application codes, such as fractions to a decimal
measurement system and monetary systems such as the impending European Economic
Community's Eurodollar.

     Mr. Luntz and Mr. Willis received an aggregate of 1,070,000 shares of
authorized, but unissued, common stock of NeoMedia. The number of shares of
NeoMedia's common stock received by Mr. Luntz and Mr. Willis was determined
through arms-length negotiations between the parties. Mr. Luntz entered into an
employment agreement with NeoMedia and Mr. Willis entered into a consulting
agreement with NeoMedia. The Allegiant Merger was accounted for as a pooling of
interests, and accordingly, all financial information has been restated as if
the entities were combined for all prior periods. On December 22, 1997,
Allegiant was dissolved and merged into NeoMedia.

        Unless the context indicates otherwise, all references herein to
"NeoMedia" or the "Company" mean and refer to the Registrant and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries.

        INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING. On November 25, 1996, NeoMedia completed an
initial public offering of 1,700,000 units at $6.00 per unit (the"IPO"). Each
unit consisted of one share of common stock, $.01 par value, and one five-year
redeemable common stock purchase warrant ("Warrant"). The common stock trades on
The Nasdaq Stock Market/SM/ under the symbol "NEOM," and until December 18,
1997, the warrants were traded under the symbol "NEOMW." Of the 1,700,000 units
of NeoMedia offered, 1,235,000 shares of common stock and 1,700,000 warrants
were sold by NeoMedia and 465,000 shares of common stock were sold by certain
stockholders of NeoMedia (the "Bridge Financing Selling Stockholders"). NeoMedia
did not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of common stock by the Bridge
Financing Selling Stockholders. On January 16, 1997, an additional 255,000 units
were sold by NeoMedia upon the exercise by Joseph Charles & Associates, Inc.,
the representative of the underwriters in the IPO ("Joseph Charles"), of its
option to cover over-allotments in the IPO.

        On November 10, 1997, NeoMedia announced the redemption of all of its
outstanding publicly-traded warrants. The warrant holders had until December 18,
1997 to convert each warrant to a share of common stock at an exercise price of
$7.375 or to sell the warrant. Any warrants outstanding on December 18, 1997
were redeemed by NeoMedia for $.05 per warrant. Of the 2,700,938 warrants
outstanding, 1,662,633 warrants were exercised for total proceeds to NeoMedia of
$12.3 million, and 1,038,305 warrants were redeemed by NeoMedia at $.05 per
warrant, or a total of $52,000.

        BRIDGE FINANCING PRIVATE PLACEMENT. Prior to the IPO, in August 1996,
NeoMedia consummated the sale of an aggregate of $2,975,000 principal amount of
10% Unsecured Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes, due September 30, 1997
(the "Bridge Promissory Notes"), in a private placement to certain investors
(the "Bridge Financing Private Placement"). On November 23, 1996, NeoMedia
prepaid an aggregate of $262,500 principal amount of the Notes. Upon
consummation of the IPO, the Bridge Promissory Notes were automatically
converted for each $50,000 principal amount into 13,750 shares of common stock
and 13,750 warrants. Since $2,712,500 aggregate principal amount of Notes were
outstanding following such prepayment, upon the consummation of the IPO, the
Bridge Promissory Notes were automatically converted into an aggregate of
745,938 shares of common stock of NeoMedia and 745,938 warrants, and the Bridge
Promissory Notes were no longer outstanding. 465,000 of the converted common
shares were sold in IPO and the remaining 280,938 converted common shares were
retained by the holders of the converted common shares (the "Bridge Financing
Selling Stockholders").

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

      NeoMedia provides computer software and consulting services:

      *  through its INTELLIGENT DOCUMENT/TM/ SOLUTIONS UNIT ("IDOCS//TM//") to
         embed active data elements in standard printed documents or on physical
         objects for the purpose of launching computer programs and creating
         automated links to the World Wide Web;

                                       2

<PAGE>


      *  through its DOCUMENT SYSTEMS SOLUTIONS UNIT to assist clients in
         optimizing the creation, production and management of printed documents
         and printed document processes; and

       * through its YEAR 2000 / MIGRATION SOLUTIONS UNIT to enable and assist
         clients to implement mass changes in computer software and hardware
         systems, including (i) identifying, seeking and automatically
         correcting restrictive source and application fields which store data,
         including among other items, dates (adding two digits to a two-digit
         date field when four digits are required to correct the Year 2000
         problem), stock prices (converting stock prices from a fractional to a
         decimal measurement system) and European currencies (converting to the
         new European Monetary Unit of Measure, commonly known as the
         "Eurodollar"), and (ii) conversions from legacy to open systems.

        NeoMedia currently offers its services and products through its three
principal business units - the Intelligent Document//TM// Solutions Unit, the
Document Systems Solutions Unit and the Year 2000 / Migration Solutions Unit
which, although separate in name, often function as a team in providing
solutions for its customers.

        As part of the services provided in connection with the solutions it
offers, NeoMedia often recommends, specifies, supplies and installs equipment
and software products from third-party suppliers, many of whom have strategic
alliances with NeoMedia. NeoMedia acts as a re-marketer of equipment and
software products for a number of suppliers, such as IBM Corporation, Sun
Microsystems Computer Company, Xerox Corporation, Symbol Technologies, Inc. and
Oracle Corporation, and, to date, has generated the largest portion of its
revenue from these activities.

INTELLIGENT DOCUMENT(/TM/) ("IDOCS//TM//") SOLUTIONS UNIT

        NeoMedia has developed its own technology, and has rights to use the
technology of others, to generate printed documents and enhance physical objects
which can be automatically "read" by machines, such as computers equipped with
scanners and appropriate software. These "machine readable" documents or
physical objects incorporate printed codes which contain thousands of bytes of
information, including computer programs rendering them functionally equivalent
to a computer floppy disk. With this functionality, a user may access additional
information about, assess validity of, or determine authenticity of, such
document or object. These codes are referred to in the industry as "high
capacity symbologies" and "multi-dimensional" or "two-dimensional" bar codes.

        Two-dimensional bar code technology has been thoroughly designed,
developed and tested during the past decade. NeoMedia believes its technology is
broad and generally innovative enough to be applied to a variety of industries
including information management services, banking and financial services,
health care and pharmaceuticals, government services, publishing, advertising,
gaming, travel and entertainment. To date, a variety of applications have been
commercially introduced in the United States and abroad, including fraud-proof
negotiable instruments ("Secure Documents"), traceable shipping documents, and
public and medical identification cards.

        NEOMEDIA'S IDOCS/TM/ TECHNOLOGY LINKS THE WORLDS OF PRINT AND ELECTRONIC
MEDIA. Printed documents provide the basis and infrastructure for formal
communication and commerce worldwide. In addition, the generation of printed
documents has increased significantly, not decreased, with the adoption of
electronic data processing systems during the past half century. However, the
improvement in processes to generate printed documents has been a one way street
from electronic media to a printed form. The process to re-convert human
readable text to machine readable form, which is required in all business
operations, has been labor intensive, exceedingly difficult and often
impossible. Therefore, management believes among other applications that
NeoMedia's technology can be used in all businesses to increase operational
efficiencies by reducing manual re-entry of data for business transaction
document and record management purposes. Management believes, therefore, its
Intelligent Documents//TM// technology will provide the industry standard for
linking the worlds of print and electronic media. Furthermore, NeoMedia will
label any printed document or physical object incorporating its technology as
"IDOCs//TM// Enabled".

        HIGH CAPACITY SYMBOLOGIES: PRESERVING MACHINE READABLE INFORMATION IN
HUMAN READABLE PRINT DOCUMENTS. The use of high capacity symbologies is today
the most effective and efficient means of transmitting printed information
between computers. High capacity symbologies are data communications protocols
which allow the preservation and communication of virtually all machine readable
data represented as highly structured patterns on conventional print media.
These patterns can be decoded using conventional document scanning devices and
appropriate software. The result is a system which literally functions as a
"modem" for print, virtually eliminating the need for manual or optical
character recognition ("OCR") conversion while providing 100% accuracy and
preserving the "latent" elements previously available only in the electronic
data processing environment.

        It is common in business and government operations to take information
stored in an electronic media format and print it into human readable form and
then re-enter the same information back into electronic format. This process of
printing and re-entering into electronic format often occurs multiple times
since the information in the electronic format must be available for multiple
parties or business departments in traditional human readable print in addition
to its original electronic format. Text conversion from printed "human readable"
form to a machine readable format can be accomplished through either manual
re-entry or through the use of OCR software contained in scanning devices.
Neither manual transcription nor the use of scanning devices are an efficient or
effective method of conversion. Manual transcription is both labor intensive and
error prone. Scanning devices are, at best, 98% efficient which is not suitable
for transcription of un-proofed text and is potentially disastrous for the
conversion of documents containing numerical information. Furthermore, neither
method can fully restore a print document to its original machine readable form
which often contains non-printable "latent" information, such as spreadsheet
formulas, database references, embedded programs and multi-media data.

        In contrast to traditional "first generation" linear bar codes which,
due to space limitations, only hold up to 40 characters, the high capacity
symbologies used in Intelligent Documents//TM// convey significantly greater
amounts of information - up to 2,000 characters in single symbols and tens of
thousands when multiple symbols are used. In addition, unlike traditional linear
bar codes, high capacity symbologies are not limited to storing character
information but can also convey pure binary data including formatting
information, charts and graphs, multi-media elements such as color photographs
and audio and fully executable programs and macros. High capacity symbologies,
in conjunction with other Intelligent Document//TM// software technology that
NeoMedia has developed or licensed to use, can also be used to automatically
link any printed document, such as books, newspapers, magazines, invoices and
cards to on-line sources of computer information including those available
through the Internet and the World Wide Web.

        SERVICES AND PRODUCTS. NeoMedia either currently provides or plans to
provide the following Intelligent Document//TM// service and software products:

/BULLET/ TECHNOLOGY AND SOLUTIONS CONSULTING are engagements where NeoMedia
         consults with clients to advise them on general capabilities of
         Intelligent Document//TM// technology and specific advantages and
         limitations of different implementations, including custom solution
         designs and impact studies to assist them in their businesses.

/BULLET/ SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT AND INTEGRATION is the design, development,
         implementation and service of Intelligent Document//TM// systems and
         applications for client purposes. It is anticipated that these systems
         will incorporate both equipment and software available from third party
         suppliers, as well as proprietary components and licenses developed by
         and controlled by NeoMedia.

/BULLET/ INTELLIGENT DOCUMENT MIDDLEWARE includes multi-platform utility
         software products, such as print drivers, symbology encoders and
         decoders, compaction modules and application engines which support and
         enable Intelligent Document//TM// applications.

         NeoMedia believes that it is currently the leading provider of high
         capacity symbology print drivers to the high speed printing
         environment. NeoMedia has provided such services to various customers,
         such as UPS

                                       4

<PAGE>


         and Symbol Technologies, Inc. and their customers, such as
         J.C.Penney, Amway, various state departments of motor vehicles, and
         the country of Bahrain.

/BULLET/ INTELLIGENT DOCUMENT/TM/ APPLICATIONS includes specific applications
         software which apply Intelligent Document/TM/ technology and principles
         to provide specific commercial solutions, including WebDispatch, Paper
         Data, MedThread and Commerce Thread.

        In addition to these services, NeoMedia plans to engage in the design
and development of proprietary applications to enhance ported systems. These
proprietary systems will include the support of Virtual Private Networks which
emulate local area network access via the Internet using secure encryption
methods to route data traffic. The result will be a Virtual Private Web which
will allow computers within companies to be networked via the Internet, with the
assurance of security so that there would not be any unauthorized use.

        Since the Intelligent Document/TM/ Solutions Unit has only been formed
recently, to date it has provided only limited software and consulting services.
However, due to the rapidly emerging era of electronic commerce fostered by the
proliferation of the Internet and the World Wide Web, NeoMedia anticipates that
the large number of potential Intelligent Document//TM// applications will, in
terms of revenue, make this a fast growing unit of NeoMedia, although to date
this has not occurred and no assurances can be given that this will occur in the
future.

DOCUMENT SYSTEMS SOLUTIONS UNIT

        The Document System Solutions Unit assists clients in optimizing their
document creation, production and management processes. These efforts have
historically focused on designing and providing complete, client specific, high
speed and high volume document formatting and printing solutions. Recently,
services of the Document System Solutions Unit have been expanded to include
Integrated Document Factories ("IDF's"), a complete, client specific system
solution for automating, monitoring and managing print-to-mail processes. IDF's
incorporate manufacturing principles and IDOCs/TM/ technology, enabling clients
not only to achieve maximum efficiencies in their print processes, but to also
ensure document integrity and traceability.

        NeoMedia's customers currently using the Document Systems Solutions
Unit's services and products, include Principal Financial Group, Fidelity
Investments, Discover Card Services, Inc., Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. and the
State of Wisconsin, and they are able to reduce their costs through
efficiencies, by generating on demand customized forms instead of purchasing
expensive pre-printed stock forms, and by enabling implementation of their
printing systems on lower-cost distributed client-server platforms. In addition,
clients in the future may realize significant cost savings from obtaining
postage discounts which may be awarded by the United States Postal Service
("USPS") to businesses that, through use of the Document System Solutions Unit's
services and products, prepare and print mail in USPS specified delivery
sequence.

        In providing complete document system solutions and IDF's, NeoMedia
often "partners" with companies such as Xerox Corporation, IBM Corporation,
Dazel Corporation, and I-Data. These arrangements often result (i) in the
"partner" introducing to NeoMedia customers which purchase NeoMedia's and the
business partner's services and products, (ii) in the use by the partner of
NeoMedia as a subcontractor, (iii) in the re-marketing by NeoMedia of the
business partner's hardware and software products, and (iv) in the sharing of
the responsibility with the business partner. Depending upon the product or
service involved, the association with the business partner may be on an
exclusive basis.

        Currently, in connection with the services of the Document Systems
Solutions Unit, NeoMedia is a supplier of proprietary and third-party software
and third-party equipment. The companies represented by NeoMedia in the
remarketing of software and equipment include Oracle Corporation, IBM
Corporation, Sun Microsystems Computer Company, Xerox Corporation, Symbol
Technologies, Dazel Corporation, Elixir Technologies and I-Data.

        SERVICES. NeoMedia provides services in this market as both a consultant
and systems integrator, consisting of the following:

/BULLET/  ENTERPRISE OUTPUT STRATEGIES are consulting engagements in which
          NeoMedia professionals analyze customer business requirements and
          design comprehensive document systems solutions to resolve business
          problems. NeoMedia has rendered services to a number of Fortune 100
          and 500 clients since its inception in 1989, which typically have
          focused on business enablement and market share growth through
          enhanced document solutions. Recent emphasis has focused on the design
          of systems that provide a technology bridge from paper to electronic
          media.

/BULLET/  DOCUMENT MANUFACTURING EXECUTION SYSTEMS is the application of
          technology used in the typical manufacturing operation to the document
          production process. Large scale print-to-mail operations are
          essentially manufacturing operations. However, unlike successful
          manufacturing operations, print-to-mail operations typically lack
          control systems, such as those to ensure quality. NeoMedia actively
          consults in these areas and is currently developing customized
          versions of established manufacturing execution systems for the
          document generation environment.

/BULLET/ INTELLIGENT DOCUMENT/TM/ SOLUTIONS, in the context of the Document
         Systems Solutions Unit, are the consulting and systems integration of
         the software products and applications provided by the Intelligent
         Document/TM/ Solutions Unit. As related to the document production
         process, Intelligent Documents/TM/ can also be used to control such
         processes and facilitate document return processing and archive
         retrieval.

/BULLET/  MICRO-MAINFRAME PORTS. In the first half of 1996, IBM introduced a
          family of products (IBM P390, R390 and S390 processors), which allows
          users to run mainframe applications on a downsized air-cooled platform
          in addition to either OS2 or AIX (IBM's version of Unix). On these new
          systems, users can run and maintain the integrity of existing and
          proven mainframe systems at a price and support cost comparable to the
          cost of an open system. While the transfer of applications to these
          new processors is not a conversion, it does involve migration services
          since special expertise is required in the configuration and tuning of
          the new processors in order to co-host the proprietary IBM
          applications in conjunction with either OS2 or AIX. NeoMedia, as an
          authorized re-marketer for IBM, offers these new systems and provides
          migration services in connection with their installation.

/BULLET/  INTERNET EXTENSIONS. Information currently on the Internet is
          predominately housed in open system environments, primarily UNIX
          servers which have become the machine of choice in academic and other
          distributed computing environments during the past decade. The vast
          majority of new information currently being formatted for the World
          Wide Web is also hosted in open system environments. However, the
          majority of corporate information is housed in legacy mainframe and
          mini-computer environments which are not connected to the Internet,
          primarily for security reasons. This condition is the major barrier to
          the application of Internet technology to inter and intra enterprise
          communications and applications often referred to as Intranet
          solutions. NeoMedia offers services in this arena, which include:

         *   Implementation of new Internet compatible systems through open
             systems integration products and services.

         *   Migrations of existing proprietary legacy applications and
             databases to open system platforms compatible with modernization to
             the Internet environment.

        SOFTWARE PRODUCTS. NeoMedia offers a variety of third-party and
proprietary software products to be used in connection with its document systems
solutions, including AFP Toolkit, AFP Interpreter and Maxicode.

        The services performed by the Document Solutions Unit represented 87.2%
of NeoMedia's total sales for the year ended December 31, 1997. As a systems
integrator, NeoMedia supplies and installs, as a re-marketer for a number of
companies, a variety of computer and related products. For the years ended
December 31, 1997 and 1996, revenues from this activity represented 78.5% and
82.9%, respectively, of NeoMedia's total revenue.

YEAR 2000 / MIGRATION SOLUTIONS UNIT

        The Year 2000 / Migration Solutions Unit provides proprietary and
third-party software tools to assist clients in (i) identifying and
automatically correcting software with the "Year 2000 problem," and (ii)
converting ("migrating") from closed legacy systems to more cost effective and
functional open systems. In addition, due to the unique, flexible architecture
on which the Year 2000 / Migration Solutions Unit's software tools are built,
solutions for other mass change problems (such as, but not limited to, the
impending Eurodollar problem and the conversion of stock prices from a
fractional to a decimal measurement system) may be easily developed.

        RESOLVING "YEAR 2000" AND OTHER RESTRICTIVE SOURCE AND APPLICATION CODE
PROBLEMS. The "Year 2000 problem" refers to the use of a two-digit date field
primarily found in legacy software programs. For example, "89" represents the
calendar year "1989." Programs using such two-digit year codes will become
invalid on January 1, 2000, as they will read "00" as "1900." As a result,
serious errors will occur in calculations dependent upon dates, such as mortgage
calculations, in particular, and calculations used throughout the financial
industry in general.

        NeoMedia sells licenses to proprietary software tools (including
"ADAPT/2000") that unlike many other competitive tools, not only identify
occurrences of the date code problem in software programs, but automatically
correct ("remediate") up to what NeoMedia believes to be potentially 90% of
these occurrences. NeoMedia's ADAPT/2000 tool, unlike other competitive tools,
works across various hardware platforms and remediates legacy programs written
in COBOL and new IBM COBOL ("MLE") computer languages. In addition, ADAPT/2000
works to convert other restrictive source and application code, such as
fractions to a decimal measurement system and monetary systems such as the
impending European Economic Community's Eurodollar.

        NeoMedia is seeking to expand its strategic relationships to undertake
Year 2000 services in conjunction with others. NeoMedia anticipates serving in a
subcontractor capacity to companies undertaking modernization and remediation
efforts to large system users, such as Columbia Hospital Corporation. NeoMedia
may from time to time seek its own direct engagements with end-users, as well.

        MIGRATION SOLUTIONS. Prior to the late 1980's, software and hardware
manufacturers developed business software that would only run on their
proprietary systems in an attempt to "lock in" existing customers. This in turn
resulted in the development of business software which would run only on these
closed proprietary systems. These "closed" systems and applications are referred
to in the industry as "legacy systems." However, in the late 1980's and early
1990's, technological advances resulted in widespread development of software
and hardware in standard computer languages that could be installed in a variety
of systems. Subsequently, these "open" systems have generated price and
performance advantages and greater functionality.

        Through the use of NeoMedia's migration tools and services, businesses
desiring to convert from a legacy system may avoid the time and cost of
rewriting applications or the loss of an application's functionality when
transferred directly to an open client-server system. Instead, NeoMedia's
migration tools automatically translate legacy applications from proprietary
source code to code that can be run directly on open systems. This automated
solution provides advantages such as (i) most, if not all, of the functionality
of the original legacy application is maintained, (ii) the conversion entails
less time, resources and disruption risk than the other methods, and (iii) the
conversion provides a base for modernization of the legacy application in the
new open environment.

        NeoMedia's "migration and modernization" approach provides one-stop
shopping for clients to migrate existing systems to open platforms and then
modernize these same systems to incorporate current or new technologies. A
variety of modernization paths are available to clients upon completing
migration. NeoMedia management will also use this approach to further the
introduction of their IDOCs(/TM/) technology.

        NeoMedia's Migration Solutions Unit provides consulting and systems
integration services to facilitate the migration of business applications
running on legacy systems, such as the Wang environment, to open-system
platforms, such as Unix. Such migrations can reduce customer capital, training
and operating costs, as well as improve performance and increase functionality
in the new system environment. NeoMedia's Migration Solutions Unit has a group
of proprietary programs ("tools") which facilitate this process and reduce the
time, cost and risk involved in such development efforts. The products and
services offered by Migration complement NeoMedia's more general systems
integration products and services, which management believes provide clear
synergies with NeoMedia's other commercial activities.

        Since technology in the computer industry changes so rapidly, the "new
and improved" system of today is the legacy system of tomorrow. Consequently,
NeoMedia believes that there is a substantial and continuing market for
transition services.

        THE NEOMEDIA SOLUTION. In 1994, Migration acquired and has since further
developed a group of automated legacy conversion tools. These proprietary tools
support migrations from proprietary Wang VS and Hewlett Packard HP3000 to
multiple varieties of UNIX systems.

        NeoMedia takes an evolutionary, rather than a revolutionary, approach to
migration. When assisted by NeoMedia, the client takes smaller, safer and more
manageable steps toward its conversion objective. At the completion of each
"migration" stage, the client evaluates a variety of "modernization" paths which
may be available to it, such as running Microsoft Windows interfaces to their
applications, taking advantage of special features of a new database or
development environment, integrating their custom application with third-party
applications or enhancing their abilities to create custom form documents from
their internal applications.

        The "modernization" aspect of NeoMedia's migration services highlights
the synergies that exist with NeoMedia's expertise in providing products and
services for open systems. After NeoMedia has completed the migration of the
client's legacy software to an open system, this software can be modernized
(i.e. updated) to take advantage of modern technologies to improve system
performance, enhance user interfaces and generally bring the system into an
up-to-date condition. NeoMedia's "migration and modernization" approach allows
for fast, cost effective migration of legacy software with a minimum of
disruption to the client's business operations, coupled with controlled
modernization projects that, in a well-planned and logical manner, result in the
legacy software having the latest technology. Since NeoMedia has the expertise
to accomplish both the migration from the legacy platform to the open system and
to modernize the software, it acts as "one-stop shopping" for all of its
client's needs. NeoMedia believes that since it has the capability to be a
single source of solutions for its customers, it has a competitive advantage.

        SERVICES. The Year 2000 / Migration Solutions Unit of NeoMedia presently
offers two approaches to assist clients to implement business applications in
open computing environments:

/BULLET/  OPEN SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT. This approach is employed when an application
          must be written or rewritten for use on an open systems platform.
          NeoMedia provides consulting services for technology assessment,
          systems analysis and design as well as full systems integration and
          support services. These services include mainframe and workstation
          integration, application program selection and design, custom program
          development, equipment and software installation, customer training
          and acceptance testing. The initial focus of these services was on the
          Unix workstation and server environment due to its "open" nature and
          ability to support enterprise database applications on workstation
          environments. These services have

                                       8

<PAGE>


          broadened to include other platforms, including Windows NT, which
          NeoMedia believes will be increasingly competitive during the latter
          half of this decade.

/BULLET/  TOTAL ASSISTED MIGRATION. This approach is employed when the legacy
          application effectively can be converted and "ported" (moved) to the
          open system environment using largely automated processes with minimal
          custom development. This approach is superior to the Open System
          Development in time, cost and development risk. Consequently, it is
          usually preferred. Conversion and porting of the legacy application is
          accomplished by the use of the proprietary migration tools employed by
          NeoMedia. NeoMedia's migration-development tools and application
          products are based on the widely used technology of Informix,
          Microsoft Corporation, IBM, Hewlett Packard, Oracle Corporation, Sun
          Microsystems Computer Company, Micro Focus Cobol and Accucobol.

        PROPRIETARY MIGRATION SOFTWARE TOOLS AND PRODUCTS. NeoMedia has acquired
and developed a line of proprietary products and software tools utilized in its
migrations services solutions, including WISP, WISP NT, WISP/UNIX, CoStar for
WISP, PacePort and Legacy Liberator.

        In each of these areas of service, NeoMedia provides consulting services
which include strategic consulting, analysis and evaluation of user
applications, systems analysis, design, implementation, integration and support
services and client training and configuration, installation and maintenance of
equipment. The services performed by the Year 2000 / Migration Solutions Unit
represented 12.8% of NeoMedia's total sales for the year ended December 31,
1997.

CUSTOMERS

        Although NeoMedia provides services and products to a spectrum of
customers, ranging from closely-held companies to Fortune 100 and 500 companies,
for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, one customer, Ameritech
Services, Inc. ("Ameritech"), accounted for 38.7% and 38.3%, respectively, of
NeoMedia's revenue. NeoMedia expects sales to Ameritech as a percentage of total
sales to decline in the future. Furthermore, NeoMedia does not have a written
agreement with Ameritech and, therefore, there are no contractual provisions to
prevent Ameritech from terminating its relationship with NeoMedia at any time.
Accordingly, the loss of this customer, or a significant reduction by it in
buying the products and services offered by NeoMedia, absent diversification,
would materially and adversely affect NeoMedia's revenues and results of
operations. In addition, the equipment and software which is remarketed to this
customer is supplied by a single supplier. Accordingly, the loss of this
supplier would materially adversely affect NeoMedia. For these reasons, NeoMedia
is seeking, and continues to seek, to diversify its sources of revenue.

SALES AND MARKETING

        NeoMedia markets its products, as well as those for which it acts as a
re-marketer, and its services primarily through its direct sales force, which
was composed of 25 personnel as of December 31, 1997. NeoMedia currently
maintains sales locations in five states. The sales organization is responsible
for achieving quarterly and annual sales quotas, and, to a significant extent,
is compensated based upon the profitability of their efforts. NeoMedia also
relies upon its strategic alliances with industry leaders to help market its
products and services, provide lead referrals and establish informal
co-marketing arrangements. Although NeoMedia in the past has engaged in limited
telemarketing activities, it may in the future expand such marketing activities.
Representatives of NeoMedia also attend seminar and trade shows, both as
speakers and participants, to help market its products and services.

        NeoMedia currently has arrangements with independent distributors to
promote their products and services outside of the United States. NeoMedia
currently has representation in England, the Netherlands, Canada, Central
America and South America, although its revenue from sales outside the United
States is insignificant. NeoMedia is in the process of establishing direct sales
offices in Austria, Brazil, Mexico and the United Kingdom.

                                       9


<PAGE>

        In addition, NeoMedia has an indirect sales channel of value added
resellers in the United States, and to a limited extend in foreign countries, of
its Year 2000 products and services. NeoMedia anticipates that the indirect
sales channel will account for an increasingly significant portion of NeoMedia's
total revenue in future periods. There is no assurance that NeoMedia will be
successful in further developing such channels, that such relationships will
result in significant additional sales or that any sales through such channels
will have the same profitability, if any, of sales obtained through NeoMedia's
direct sales force. In addition, NeoMedia expects its direct and indirect sales
channels to compete with each other. Successful indirect sales efforts depend on
the abilities, resources, reputations, motivations and strategies of third
parties over which NeoMedia has little control. If NeoMedia's efforts at further
developing these indirect sales channels are unsuccessful, if such channels are
unproductive or if NeoMedia were to lose one or more of its value added
resellers, there could be a material adverse effect on NeoMedia's results of
operations or financial position.

CUSTOMER SUPPORT ORGANIZATION

        NeoMedia believes that strong customer support is crucial to both the
initial marketing of its products and maintenance of customer satisfaction,
which in turn, enhances NeoMedia's reputation and generates repeat orders. In
addition, NeoMedia believes that the customer interaction and feedback involved
in its ongoing support functions provide NeoMedia with information on market
trends and customer requirements that is critical to future product development
efforts.

        Pre-sales support is provided by sales personnel and post-sales support
is provided by NeoMedia's customer support organization pursuant to renewable
annual maintenance contracts. NeoMedia maintains toll-free telephone support
during regular business hours to current users and potential customers
evaluating NeoMedia's products. Maintenance contracts provide for technical and
emergency support, as well as software upgrades, on an if and when available
basis.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

        The computer industry is characterized by rapid technological change,
frequent new product and service introductions, evolving industry standards and
changes in customer demands. The introduction of products and services embodying
new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards can, in a
relatively short period of time, render existing products and services obsolete
and unmarketable. NeoMedia, therefore, believes that its success depends upon
its ability continuously to develop new products and services, as well as
enhancements to its existing products, and to introduce them promptly into the
market. Research and development is especially critical to NeoMedia's intention
to develop new software products and services related to high capacity
symbologies. NeoMedia employed 15 persons in the area of product development as
of December 31, 1997. During the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
NeoMedia incurred total research and development costs of $1,180,000 and
$645,000, respectively, of which $428,000 and $293,000, respectively, were
capitalized as software development costs and $752,000 and $352,000,
respectively, were expensed as research and development costs.

        Although, NeoMedia currently is seeking patents for certain of its
proprietary technology related to Intelligent Documents/TM/, NeoMedia presently
has no patents with respect to its proprietary technology and products. No
assurances can be given that such patent protection will be granted, and if
granted, that it will be adequate to protect NeoMedia's rights. In addition,
NeoMedia relies upon copyright and trademark laws, trade secrets,
confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions, all of which afford only
limited protection, to protect its proprietary technology and products. Although
NeoMedia takes steps to protect its trade secrets, such as requiring employees
with access to NeoMedia's proprietary information to execute confidentiality and
non-disclosure agreements, it may be possible for unauthorized parties to copy
or reverse engineer all or part of any one of NeoMedia's proprietary technology
and products. Furthermore, just as there can be no assurance that a
misappropriation of NeoMedia's proprietary technology and products will not
occur, there can be no assurance that copyright, trademark and trade secret laws
will be available in all circumstances to protect NeoMedia's rights. In
addition, although the laws of the United States may protect NeoMedia's
proprietary rights in its technology and products, the laws of foreign countries
where

                                       10

<PAGE>


NeoMedia's products may be used may not protect its proprietary rights at all or
to the same extent as the laws of the United States.

        NeoMedia believes that its proprietary technology and products do not
infringe upon the rights of any third parties; however, there can be no
assurance that a third party will not in the future claim infringement by
NeoMedia. Similarly, infringement claims could be asserted against products and
technologies which NeoMedia licenses from third parties. NeoMedia has never
received notification that any of its products, products it licenses or the
technology of such products infringe upon the proprietary rights of third
parties.

        NeoMedia may provide some of its products to end users using
non-exclusive, non-transferable licenses which provide that the licensee may use
the software solely for internal operations on designated computers at specific
sites or by a specified number of users. NeoMedia generally does not make source
codes available for NeoMedia's products.

        Due to the difficulty of doing so, NeoMedia has never policed, nor has
it ever attempted to police, the unauthorized use of its products. Even though
piracy of NeoMedia's proprietary rights could materially adversely affect it,
NeoMedia believes that the threat of piracy, or the unavailability of protection
under applicable laws, is less significant to its competitive and fiscal well
being than its ability to respond to the rapid change in technology which
characterizes the computer industry.

COMPETITION

        The markets in which NeoMedia competes are highly competitive, and
NeoMedia believes that such competition is likely to intensify. Many of
NeoMedia's competitors have substantially greater financial resources, larger
research and development and sales staffs and greater name recognition than
NeoMedia and, therefore, can respond more quickly and efficiently to changing
technology and user needs. As usually occurs when competition increases, there
is corresponding downward pressure on prices and profit margins, either of which
could materially and adversely affect NeoMedia. NeoMedia believes that a
potential source of competition is from its present customers who could choose
to develop and produce products and render services in-house similar to those
provided by NeoMedia.

        Since NeoMedia offers a variety of products and services, no
generalities can be made as to its competitors, all of which differ depending
upon the product or service offered.

        The largest competition, in terms of number of competitors, is for
customers desiring systems integration, including the re-marketing of another
party's products, and document solutions. These competitors range from the
local, small privately held company to the large national and international
organizations, including the large consulting firms, such as Andersen
Consulting. A large number of companies act as re-marketers of another party's
products, and therefore, the competition in this area is intense. In some
instances, NeoMedia, in acting as a re-marketer, may compete with the original
manufacturer.

        There are a number of companies that compete with NeoMedia for customers
wishing to migrate from a legacy to an open systems environment. In addition,
there are different competitors, depending upon the platform from which the
migration is being done. Generally, as with competitors for NeoMedia's open
systems services and products, the competitors for transition services business
range from small to large companies. NeoMedia believes, however, that not a
significant number of its competitors for the transition services business use
automated tools to facilitate the migration. This, NeoMedia believes, gives it a
competitive advantage in this area.

        Since the development of high capacity symbologies are in their relative
infancy, at the current time there is very little competition. However, it can
be expected that as this area develops, competitors will appear and competition
will be significantly increased. No assurances can be given that NeoMedia will
be able to compete successfully in this area should this occur.

                                       11

<PAGE>


        Within the Year 2000 marketplace, NeoMedia believes that competition
will intensify as the Millennia approaches. It is NeoMedia's aim to distinguish
itself from most of the competition by offering quality services at competitive
prices. Many Year 2000 solutions, once the non-compliant code is identified,
will require manual remediation undertaken in a work bench environment.
ADAPT/2000, on the other hand, will substantially automate the remediation
process. Some of NeoMedia's competitors are more established, benefit from
greater name recognition and have substantially greater financial, technical and
marketing resources than NeoMedia. Moreover, other than the need for technical
expertise, there are no significant proprietary or other barriers to entry in
the millennium consulting industry. As a result, there can be no assurance that
one of the Company's competitors will not develop a millennium consulting
methodology which achieves greater market acceptance than ADAPT/2000.

        New or improved products and services can be expected from NeoMedia's
competitors in the future. Market participants must compete on many fronts,
including development time, engineering expertise, product quality, performance
and reliability, price, name recognition, customer support and access to
distribution channels. NeoMedia believes that it has been able to compete to
date primarily through product quality, technical excellence, customer service
and its ability to achieve desired results. NeoMedia's ability to compete in the
future will depend upon many factors, including the ability to attract new
customers and to diversify its customer base and products and services so as not
to be dependent upon any one or several customers or product or service, to
attract and retain qualified management, sales and technical personnel, to
develop new products and services and to respond quickly and efficiently to new
technology. There is no assurance that NeoMedia will be able to compete
successfully or develop competitive products and services in the future.

PRODUCT LIABILITY INSURANCE

        NeoMedia has never had any product liability claim asserted against it.
However, NeoMedia could be subject to product liability claims in connection
with the use of the products and services that it sells. There can be no
assurance that NeoMedia would have sufficient resources to satisfy any liability
resulting from these claims or would be able to have its customers indemnify or
insure NeoMedia against such claims. Although NeoMedia maintains insurance
against such claims, there can be no assurance that such coverage will be
adequate in terms and scope to protect NeoMedia against material adverse effects
in the event of a successful claim.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

        NeoMedia has no knowledge of any government regulation to which it is
subject or which would materially adversely affect its business operations.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION COMPLIANCE

        NeoMedia has no knowledge of any federal, state or local environmental
compliance regulations which affect its business activities. NeoMedia has not
expended any capital to comply with any environmental protection statutes and
does not anticipate that such expenditures will be necessary in the future.

EMPLOYEES

        As of December 31, 1997, NeoMedia employed 82 full-time and five
part-time employees, located in 12 states, which included 16 full-time employees
and two part-time employees in systems integration, 15 full-time employees in
product development, 25 full-time employees in sales, 12 full-time employees and
one part-time employee in marketing and 14 full-time employees and two part-time
employees in executive and administrative positions. None of NeoMedia's
employees are represented by a labor union or bound by a collective bargaining
agreement. NeoMedia believes that its employee relations are good.

        NeoMedia's success depends to a significant extent on the performance of
its senior management and certain key employees. Competition for highly skilled
employees, including sales, technical and management personnel, is

                                       12

<PAGE>


intense in the computer industry. NeoMedia's failure to attract additional
qualified employees or to retain the services of key personnel could materially
adversely affect NeoMedia's business.

SAFE HARBOR PROVISION OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION ACT OF 1995

        NeoMedia operates in a dynamic and rapidly changing environment that
involves numerous risks and uncertainties. The market for software products is
generally characterized by rapidly changing technology, frequent new product
introductions and changes in customer requirements which can render existing
products obsolete or unmarketable. The statements contained in Item 1 (Business)
and Item 6 (Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations) that are not historical facts may be forward-looking
statements (as such term is defined in the rules promulgated pursuant to the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that are subject to a variety of risks and
uncertainties more fully described in NeoMedia's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission including, without limitation, those described under "Risk
Factors" in NeoMedia's Prospectus dated August 25, 1997. The forward-looking
statements are based on the beliefs of the management of NeoMedia, as well as
assumptions made by, and information currently available to, NeoMedia's
management. Accordingly, these statements are subject to significant risks,
uncertainties and contingencies which could cause NeoMedia's actual growth,
results, performance and business prospects and opportunities in 1998 and beyond
to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, any such
forward-looking statements. Wherever possible, words such as "anticipate,"
"plan," "expect," "believe," "estimate," and similar expressions have been used
to identify these forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of
identifying such statements. These risks, uncertainties and contingencies
include, but are not limited to, NeoMedia's limited operating history on which
expectations regarding its future performance can be based, competition from,
among others, national and regional software developers and software/hardware
sellers that have greater financial, technical and marketing resources and
distribution capabilities than NeoMedia, the availability of sufficient capital,
NeoMedia's ability to identify the right product mix, NeoMedia's ability to
successfully acquire and integrate the operations of additional businesses,
NeoMedia's ability to operate effectively in geographical areas in which it has
no prior experience, the maturation and success of NeoMedia's strategy to
develop, market and sell its products and services, risks inherent in conducting
international business, risks associated with selling proprietary licenses and
conducting a consulting services business, changes in NeoMedia's product and
service mix and product and service pricing, the effectiveness of NeoMedia's
efforts to control operating expenses, general economic and business conditions
affecting NeoMedia and its customers in the United States and other countries in
which NeoMedia sells and anticipates to sell its products and services, charges
and costs related to acquisitions, and NeoMedia's ability to: (i) develop,
market and sell existing and acquired products for the Intelligent Document/TM/,
Year 2000 and other software markets; (ii) successfully integrate its acquired
products, services and businesses and continue its acquisition strategy; (iii)
adjust to changes in technology, customer preferences, enhanced competition and
new competitors in the Intelligent Document/TM/, Year 2000 and other software
markets; (iv) protect its proprietary software rights from infringement or
misappropriation; (v) maintain or enhance its relationships with business
partners and vendors; (vi) attract and retain key employees; and (vii) implement
changes in NeoMedia's business strategy or minimize an inability to execute its
strategy due to unanticipated changes in the millennium software and consulting
market. There can be no assurance that NeoMedia will be able to identify,
develop, market, sell or support new products or enhancements successfully, that
any such new products or enhancements will gain market acceptance, or that
NeoMedia will be able to respond effectively to technological changes. There can
be no assurance that NeoMedia will not encounter technical or other difficulties
that could delay introduction of new products in the future. If NeoMedia is
unable to introduce new products or enhancements and respond to industry changes
on a timely basis, its business could be materially adversely affected. NeoMedia
is not obligated to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect
new events or circumstances.

his wife, pursuant to a verbal, month-to-month lease, space at 6054 Timberwood
Circle, #240, Fort Myers, Florida 33908, which it currently uses as temporary
housing for employees relocating to Fort Myers. Although this lease is between
affiliated parties, NeoMedia believes that it is on terms no less favorable to
it than could be obtained from unaffiliated parties.

        NeoMedia believes that its existing office space is adequate to meet its
current and short-term requirements.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

        As of December 31, 1997, NeoMedia is not a party to any material legal
proceedings.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

        No matters were submitted to a vote of NeoMedia security holders during
the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 1997.

holders had until December 18, 1997 to convert each warrant to a share of common
stock at an exercise price of $7.375 or to sell the warrant. Any warrants
outstanding on December 18, 1997 were redeemed by NeoMedia for $.05 per warrant.
Of the 2,700,938 warrants outstanding, 1,662,633 warrants were exercised for
total proceeds to NeoMedia of $12.3 million, and 1,038,305 warrants were
redeemed by NeoMedia at $.05 per warrant, or a total of $52,000.

        Set forth below is the range of high and low sales prices for the common
stock and warrants for the periods indicated as reported by NASDAQ. The
quotations do not include retail markups, markdowns or commissions and may not
represent actual transactions.

(3) Includes only the period October 1, 1997 through December 18, 1997.

        (b) HOLDERS. As of March 5, 1998, there were 139 holders of record of
NeoMedia's common stock. NeoMedia believes that it has a greater number of
shareholders because management believes that a substantial number of NeoMedia's
common stock are held of record in street name by broker-dealers for their
customers.

        (c) DIVIDENDS. As of March 16, 1998, NeoMedia has not paid any dividends
on its common stock and does not expect to pay a cash dividend in the
foreseeable future, but intends to devote all funds to the operation of its
businesses. As of March 16, 1998, NeoMedia had a letter of credit with First
National Bank of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, the terms of which require First
National Bank of Chicago's written permission prior to the declaration of cash
dividends.

        NeoMedia's stock price has been and will continue to be subject to
significant volatility. Past financial performance should not be considered a
reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use
historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. If revenues
or earnings in any quarter fail to meet expectations of the investment
community, there could be an immediate and significant impact on NeoMedia's
stock price. In addition, NeoMedia's stock price may be affected by broader
market trends that may be unrelated to NeoMedia's performance.

ITEM 6.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

        Dev-Tech Associates, Inc., NeoMedia's predecessor, was organized in
December, 1989. Through the year ended December 31, 1997, a substantial part of
NeoMedia's revenue was derived from resales of software and technology
equipment. NeoMedia couples its proprietary software products with independent
vendor products it resells, enabling it to provide a complete "turn-key" service
for its customers. Currently, NeoMedia's revenue consists of software license
fees, resales of software developed by independent vendors ("software resales"),
resales of computer equipment manufactured by independent vendors ("equipment
resales"), and fees for services, including consulting, education and post
contract software support. In addition, NeoMedia formed its Intelligent
Document/TM/ Solutions Unit ("IDOCs/TM/") to develop enabling technology and
applications which embed active data elements in standard printed documents or
on physical objects for the purpose of launching computer programs and creating
automated links to the World Wide Web, which NeoMedia believes to be an
expanding area in the emerging world of electronic commerce. These "machine
readable" documents or physical objects incorporate printed codes which contain
thousands of bytes of information, including computer programs rendering them
functionally equivalent to a

                                       15

<PAGE>

computer floppy disk. With this functionality, a user may access additional
information about, assess validity of, or determine authenticity of, such
document or object. These codes are referred to in the industry as "high
capacity symbologies" and "multi-dimensional" or "two-dimensional" bar codes.

        NeoMedia's strategy is to increase sales of its proprietary software
transition tools and applications as a percentage of total sales. License fees
for the year ended December 31, 1997 increased 122.8% from the year ended
December 31, 1996, and, as a percentage of total sales, increased to 8.2% of
total sales during the year ended December 31, 1997 from 4.9% during the year
ended December 31, 1996, while total sales increased to $24.4 million during
1997 as compared to $18.1 million during 1996, or an increase of 35.1%. NeoMedia
has built and intends to continue to build an infrastructure that assumes this
strategy will succeed. Therefore, the failure to achieve this strategy could
have a material adverse effect on NeoMedia's business, financial condition and
results of operations.

        A substantial portion of NeoMedia's operating expense is related to
personnel, facilities and amortization. Such operating expenses cannot be
adjusted quickly and are therefore fixed in the short term. NeoMedia's expense
levels for these items are based, in significant part, on NeoMedia's
expectations of future sales. If actual sales levels are below management's
expectations, results of operations are likely to be adversely affected by a
similar amount because a relatively small amount of NeoMedia's expense varies
with its sales in the short term.

        In general, NeoMedia's sales are difficult to forecast as the market for
client/server equipment and software is rapidly evolving and NeoMedia's sales
cycle, from the initial proposal to the customer through the purchase of product
and related services varies substantially from customer to customer and from
product to product. Also, NeoMedia's operating results may fluctuate
significantly from period to period as a result of a variety of factors,
including changes in the composition of NeoMedia's revenue, the timing of new
product introductions and NeoMedia's expenditures on research and development
and promotional programs, as well as the general state of the national and
global economies. Demand for the products sold by NeoMedia may increase or
decrease as a result of a number of factors, such as client preferences and
product announcements by competitors.

        In the past, NeoMedia has realized a substantial portion of its sales in
the last quarter of the year. It is not uncommon for equipment resellers and
software companies to experience strong fourth quarters followed by weak first
quarters. Such seasonality arises from many factors, such as the timing of
product introductions and business cycles of NeoMedia's customers, and could be
material to NeoMedia's interim results. Such cycles vary from customer to
customer, and the overall impact on NeoMedia's results of operations cannot be
predicted. There can be no assurances that NeoMedia will not display this
pattern in future years. In addition, its business and results of operations
could be affected by the overall seasonality of the industry.

        NeoMedia's quarterly operating results have been subject to variation
and will continue to be subject to variation, depending upon factors, such as
the mix of business among NeoMedia's services and products, the cost of
material, labor and technology, particularly in connection with the delivery of
business services, the costs associated with initiating new contracts or opening
new offices, the economic condition of NeoMedia's target markets, and the cost
of acquiring and integrating new businesses.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AS COMPARED TO THE
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996

        GENERAL. Total net sales for the year ended December 31, 1997 were $24.4
million, which represented a $6.3 million, or 35.1%, increase from $18.1 million
for the year ended December 31, 1996. This increase primarily resulted from (i)
a $4.1 million increase in equipment resales of Sun Microsystems workstations
and servers and IBM Corporation equipment (including the $2.5 million increase
in equipment resales to NeoMedia's largest customer), (ii) a $1.7 million
increase in resales of the IBM 390 series of micro-mainframe computers, and
(iii) a $1.3 million increase in sales of Year 2000 products including licenses
and services, partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in sales in the
document and migration business units as NeoMedia refocused from resales to
licensing.

                                       16

<PAGE>

        The net loss for the year ended December 31, 1997 was $6.0 million,
which represented a $2.9 million, or 94.2%, increase from a $3.1 million loss
for the year ended December 31, 1996. The increase in the net loss primarily
resulted from NeoMedia's continuing to invest in the infrastructure needed to
manage current and expected future growth and $461,000 of expense for the fair
value of common stock purchase warrants granted to consultants, reduced by the
increased income from the net sales increase. The increase in resales of the IBM
390 series and resales of software and equipment to NeoMedia's largest customer
reduced losses by $300,000 during 1997 as compared to 1996, while the increase
in sales of the Year 2000 products reduced losses by $1.1 million. These
improvements were partially offset by the $800,000 incremental loss resulting
from the lower sales in the Document Solutions and Migration Solutions business
units.

        The total of general, administrative, sales, marketing, research and
development expenses increased $5.1 million to $10.3 million for the year ended
December 31, 1997 from $5.2 million during the year ended December 31, 1996.
This increase primarily resulted from NeoMedia investing in the expansion of its
infra-structure by hiring management, sales and other personnel to develop,
market and sell new products and $461,000 of expense for the fair value of
common stock purchase warrants granted to consultants. NeoMedia intends to
continue to expand its development, sales and marketing positions to increase
revenue in each of its three business units: Document Systems Solutions Unit,
Year 2000 / Migration Solutions Unit and Intelligent Document Solutions Unit.

        LICENSE FEES. License fees for the year ended December 31, 1997 were
$2.0 million compared to $895,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996, an
increase of $1.1 million or 122.8%. This increase resulted primarily from the
increase in sales of licenses of NeoMedia's Year 2000 proprietary software. Cost
of sales for license fees consisted primarily of fees paid to an independent
software developer for one of the existing software transition tools. Cost of
sales as a percentage of related sales was 16.2% during 1997 compared to 38.9%
during 1996. This decrease in the cost of sales as a percentage of related sales
was primarily due to the increased sales of ADAPT/2000, which is proprietary
software.

        RESALES OF SOFTWARE AND TECHNOLOGY EQUIPMENT. Resales of software and
technology equipment increased by $4.2 million, or 27.9%, to $19.2 million for
the year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to $15.0 million for the year
ended December 31, 1996. This increase primarily resulted from equipment resales
related to Sun Microsystems workstations and servers which increased $3.9
million (primarily due to increased resales to NeoMedia's largest customer - see
Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Concentrations of Credit
Risk) and IBM Corporation equipment which increased $1.1 million (primarily due
to IBM enhancing its line of 390 micro-mainframe computers to include the S390).
These increases were partially offset with a $500,000 one-time shipment of
desktop printers to a major customer in 1996. Cost of sales as a percentage of
related sales was 89.5% during 1997, compared to 81.9% during 1996. This
increase in the cost of sales as a percentage of related sales was primarily due
to the discontinuation of PRS software sales with its lower cost as a percentage
of sales and the increase in resales of software for micro- mainframe with its
higher cost as a percentage of sales.

        SERVICE FEES. NeoMedia's service fees increased by $1.0 million, or
48.5%, to $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1997, compared to $2.2
million for the year ended December 31, 1996. This increase was primarily due to
a $504,000 increase in the Year 2000 services and a $889,000 increase in
consulting fees for assisting companies to integrate printers, partially offset
with a $369,000 decrease in services supplied in conjunction with the sales of
existing software transition tools. Cost of service fees as a percentage of
related sales decreased to 61.1% during 1997 from 89.5% during 1996 primarily
due to higher margin on Year 2000 services.

        AMORTIZATION OF SOFTWARE. Amortization of software for the year ended
December 31, 1997, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1996, decreased
$61,000 as a result of certain migration software costs becoming fully amortized
during 1997, and, as a percentage of total net sales, decreased to 2.4% during
1997 from 3.6% during 1996 due to the increase in net sales.

                                       17

<PAGE>

        SALES AND MARKETING. A portion of the compensation to the sales and
marketing staff constitutes salary and is fixed in nature and the remainder of
this compensation is directly related to sales volume. Sales and marketing
expenses increased $2.6 million, or 107.0%, to $5.0 million for the year ended
December 31, 1997 from $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1996, as a
result primarily of hiring managers to direct current and expected future growth
and increased commissions resulting from the increase in sales. NeoMedia
anticipates that sales and marketing costs will increase as NeoMedia grows.

        GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses
increased $1.6 million, or 65.5%, to $4.1 million for the year ended December
31, 1997, from $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1996. This increase
was due mainly to NeoMedia building its administrative infra-structure,
including compensation and related expenses and legal and professional fees, to
manage current and expected future growth.

        RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. During the year ended December 31, 1997,
NeoMedia charged to expense 3.1% of total net sales in research and development
expenses as compared to 1.9% during the year ended December 31, 1996. This
percentage increase was due to an increase in the number of software developers
employed by NeoMedia to expand its product lines. NeoMedia currently intends to
continue to make significant investments in research and development.

        FAIR VALUE OF WARRANTS GRANTED TO CONSULTANTS. During the year ended
December 31, 1997, NeoMedia issued common stock purchase warrants to five
different consultants to purchase an aggregate of 848,332 shares of NeoMedia
common stock. Using the Black-Scholes model, the fair value of these warrants
was computed to be $716,000, of which $461,000 was charged to expense and
$255,000 was charged to the proceeds of the publicly traded warrants called on
December 18, 1997.

        INTEREST EXPENSE, NET. Interest expense consists primarily of interest
paid to creditors as part of financed purchases, capitalized leases and
NeoMedia's asset-based collateralized line of credit. Interest expense decreased
by $392,000, or 72.7%, to $147,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997 from
$539,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996, due to the repayment of debt in
the fourth quarter of 1996 and interest income earned on the proceeds from the
IPO and the warrants exercised.

        INCOME TAX EXPENSE (BENEFIT). The $78,000 benefit for income taxes
recorded during the year ended December 31, 1997 represented the recovery of
income taxes paid in prior years from the carry back of operating losses. During
the year ended December 31, 1996, NeoMedia established in its provision for
income taxes a valuation allowance for all of the net deferred income tax
assets. As of December 31, 1997, NeoMedia had a $7.5 million net operating loss
carryforward which does not include the net operating losses of DTM prior to the
Migration Merger on November 20, 1996. Until the Migration Merger and Allegiant
Merger, DTM and Allegiant were treated as S Corporations for federal and state
income tax purposes. Accordingly, federal income taxes on any earnings of DTM
and Allegiant were payable by DTM's and Allegiant's shareholders rather than by
NeoMedia. With the Migration Merger and Allegiant Merger, the S Corporation
status of Migration and Allegiant was terminated and Migration and Allegiant
became subject to statutory corporate income taxes. Consequently, the benefit
for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory
federal rate of 34% primarily because of the net losses incurred by Migration
and Allegiant. The Internal Revenue Service examined NeoMedia's Federal income
tax return for the year ended December 31, 1994. As a result of this
examination, there were no significant adjustments to NeoMedia's 1994 Federal
income tax return.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        As of December 31, 1997, NeoMedia's working capital was $12.1 million
which represented a $7.1 million increase from December 31, 1996. Net cash used
in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, was $6.2
million and $1.8 million, respectively. During 1997, trade accounts receivable
increased $1.7 million,

                                       18

<PAGE>

while accounts payable and accrued expenses increased $359,000. During 1996,
trade accounts receivables increased $2.0 million, while accounts payable and
accrued expenses increased $1.8 million. NeoMedia's net cash flow used in
investing activities for the year ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, was $1.7
million and $451,000, respectively. This increase resulted from the increased
acquisition of property and equipment, as well as the increase in purchases of
software and the increase in capitalized software development costs.

        Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December
31, 1997 and 1996, was $14.0 million and $6.5 million, respectively. In
November, 1996, NeoMedia completed its IPO receiving net proceeds of $5.7
million. In January, 1997, NeoMedia consummated the IPO's over-allotment and
received net proceeds of $1.3 million. In September, 1997, Charles W. Fritz,
NeoMedia's President and Chief Executive Officer and a principal shareholder,
exercised warrants to purchase 146,000 shares of common stock for $1.3 million.
On November 10, 1997, NeoMedia announced the redemption of all of its
outstanding publicly-traded warrants. The warrant holders had until December 18,
1997 to convert each warrant to a share of common stock at an exercise price of
$7.375 or to sell the warrant. Any warrants outstanding on December 18, 1997
were redeemed by NeoMedia at $.05 per warrant. Of the 2,700,938 warrants
outstanding, 1,662,633 warrants were exercised for net proceeds to NeoMedia of
$11.6 million, and 1,038,305 warrants were redeemed by NeoMedia at $.05 per
warrant, or a total of $52,000.

        NeoMedia believes that its existing cash balances, funds expected to be
generated from operations and available borrowings under its existing financing
agreement, will be sufficient to finance NeoMedia's operations for the next
twelve months. Thereafter, if NeoMedia has insufficient funds for its needs,
there can be no assurance that additional funds can be obtained on acceptable
terms, if at all. If necessary funds are not available, NeoMedia's business and
operations would be materially adversely affected and in such event NeoMedia
would reduce costs and adjust its business plan.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

        In the next two years, many companies, including NeoMedia, will face
potentially serious issues associated with the inability of existing data
processing hardware and software to appropriately recognize calendar dates
beginning in the year 2000. Many computer programs that can only distinguish the
final two digits of the year entered may read entries for the year 2000 as the
year 1900. In 1996, NeoMedia began the process of identifying the many software
applications used internally and hardware devices expected to be impacted by
this issue. The software programs used internally by NeoMedia (primarily its
general ledger accounting package which is not year 2000 compliant) were
purchased from third party vendors. NeoMedia believes that the hardware devices
which were not year 2000 compliant have been replaced with those which are year
2000 compliant. NeoMedia is currently evaluating the purchase for approximately
$400,000 of a new general ledger accounting package which is year 2000 compliant
and which is anticipated to be installed during 1998. However, there can be no
assurance that NeoMedia will not be adversely affected by the failure of the
existing general ledger accounting package if the new package is not installed
timely or by the failure of the new package to be fully year 2000 compliant as
represented by the vendor. NeoMedia believes that its proprietary software, for
which it is currently selling licenses, is year 2000 compliant.

ITEM 8.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
         FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES

        In February, 1998, NeoMedia voluntarily changed its independent
accountants for the year ended December 31, 1997 from Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P.
to KPMG Peat Marwick LLP. This change was approved by NeoMedia's Board of
Directors. The financial statements for each of the two years in the two-year
period ending December 31, 1996, were audited by Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P.
NeoMedia did not have any disagreements on accounting and financial disclosures
with its accountants in the years ending December 31, 1997 or 1996.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

        NeoMedia has entered into five year employment agreements ending April
30, 2001, with each of Charles W. Fritz, its President and Chief Executive
Officer, and Charles T. Jensen, its Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and
Treasurer, and with Robert T. Durst, Jr., its Executive Vice-President and Chief
Technical Officer, ending March 31, 2001. The employment agreements for Messrs.
Fritz, Durst and Jensen provide for an annual salary of $170,000, $140,000 and
$110,000, respectively, subject to annual review by the Board of Directors which
may increase but not decrease such salary, and participation in all benefits and
plans available to executive employees of NeoMedia. Effective as of May 1, 1997,
the Board of Directors increased the annual salary of Messrs. Fritz and Jensen
to $187,000 and $121,000, respectively, and increased the annual salary of Mr.
Durst to $154,000 effective as of April 1, 1997. Effective as of January 1,
1998, the Board of Directors increased the annual salary of Messrs. Fritz, Durst
and Jensen to $250,000, $170,000 and $150,000, respectively. In addition on
February 19, 1998, the Board of Directors granted, subject to stockholder
approval of the 1998 Stock Option Plan and certain other conditions, to Messrs.
Fritz, Durst and Jensen options to purchase 200,000, 90,000 and 90,000,
respectively, shares of NeoMedia common stock under the 1998 Stock Option Plan,
which has been submitted to the stockholders for approval at a special meeting
of stockholders on March 27, 1998. Each employment agreement terminates upon the
employee's death or retirement, and may be terminated by NeoMedia upon the
employee's total disability, as defined in the agreement, or for cause which is
defined, among other things, as the willful failure to perform duties,
embezzlement, or conviction of a felony. In addition, Messrs. Fritz, Durst and
Jensen participate in a special insurance disability plan and receive life
insurance benefits not generally offered to other employees and are also
entitled to certain severance benefits. These severance benefits vary depending
upon the reason for termination and whether there has been a change in control
of NeoMedia. If termination occurs by NeoMedia (except for cause or total
disability) or by the employee for good reason, as defined in the employment
agreement, the agreement provides that NeoMedia will pay to the terminated
employee (i) his salary through the date of termination, (ii) any deferred and
unpaid amounts due under NeoMedia's Incentive Plan for Management, (iii) any
accrued deferred compensation, (iv) an amount equal to two times the sum of his
annual base salary plus his highest incentive compensation for the last two
years, (v) unpaid incentive compensation including a pro-rata amount of
contingent incentive compensation for uncompleted periods, (vi) in lieu of any
stock options granted whether under NeoMedia's Stock Option Plan or otherwise
(which

                                       24

<PAGE>

are canceled upon the following payment), a cash amount equal to the aggregate
spread between the exercise prices of all options held at such time by such
terminated employee and the higher of the highest bid price of the common stock
during the twelve months immediately preceding the date of termination, or the
highest price per share of common stock actually paid in connection with any
change in control (as defined in the employment agreement) of NeoMedia, provided
that such payments do not violate the provisions of any option or the 1996 Stock
Option Plan or other plan then in effect, (vii) an amount equal to any taxes
payable on these payments, (viii) all relocation expenses if the terminated
employee moves his principal residence more than 50 miles within one year from
the date of termination, and (ix) all legal fees and expenses incurred as a
result of the termination. In addition, unless termination is for cause,
NeoMedia must continue to fund through the terminated employee's normal
retirement age any key man insurance that is in effect on the date of
termination, maintain in effect for the benefit of the terminated employee all
employee benefit plans, programs, or arrangements in effect immediately prior to
the date of termination. If the terminated employee's continued participation
under such plan and programs is not allowable, NeoMedia is obligated to provide
him with similar benefits. Each employment agreement provides that services may
be performed for companies, other entities, and individuals (whether or not
affiliated with NeoMedia) provided that the performance of such service does not
prevent the employee from attending to the affairs of NeoMedia, and such
companies are not in competition with NeoMedia. The employment agreements of
Messrs. Fritz and Durst contain provisions prohibiting their competing with
NeoMedia both during and, depending upon the reason for such termination, for
one year following the termination of their employment.

        On January 26, 1998, NeoMedia hired Mr. James M. Marshall as Executive
Vice President of Sales and Business Development. Mr. Marshall's annual salary
is $163,000 plus a $40,000 annual bonus to be paid in quarterly installments if
quarterly sales goals are met. In addition, the Board of Directors granted,
subject to stockholder approval of the 1998 Stock Option Plan and certain other
conditions, to Mr. Marshall options to purchase 70,000 shares of NeoMedia common
stock under the 1998 Stock Option Plan, which has been submitted to the
stockholders for approval at a special meeting of stockholders on March 27,
1998. Mr. Marshall also participates in all benefits and plans available to
executive employees of NeoMedia.

INCENTIVE PLAN FOR MANAGEMENT

        Effective as of January 1, 1996, NeoMedia adopted an Annual Incentive
Plan for Management ("Incentive Plan"), which provides for annual cash bonuses
to eligible employees based upon the attainment of certain corporate and
individual performance goals during the year. The Incentive Plan is designed to
provide additional incentive to NeoMedia's management to achieve these growth
and profitability goals. Participation in the Incentive Plan is limited to those
employees holding positions assigned to incentive eligible salary grades and
whose participation is authorized by NeoMedia's Compensation Committee which
administers the Incentive Plan, including determination of employees eligible
for participation or exclusion. The Board of Directors can amend, modify or
terminate the Incentive Plan for the next plan year at any time prior to the
commencement of such next plan year.

        To be eligible for consideration for inclusion in the Incentive Plan, an
employee must be on NeoMedia's payroll for the last three months of the year
involved. Death, total and permanent disability or retirement are exceptions to
such minimum employment, and awards in such cases are granted on a pro-rata
basis. In addition, where employment is terminated due to job elimination, a pro
rata award may be considered. Employees who voluntarily terminate their
employment, or who are terminated by NeoMedia for unacceptable performance,
prior to the end of the year are not eligible to participate in the Incentive
Plan. All awards are subject to any governmental regulations in effect at the
time of payment.

        Performance goals are determined for both NeoMedia's and the employee's
performance during the year, and if performance goals are attained, eligible
employees are entitled to an award based upon a specified percentage of their
base salary.

                                       25

STOCK OPTION PLAN

        Effective as of February 1, 1996 (and amended and restated effective
July 18, 1996 and further amended through November 18, 1996), NeoMedia adopted
its 1996 Stock Option Plan ("Stock Option Plan"), the purpose of which is to
retain the services of selected employees and attract new employees, consultants
and directors by providing them with the opportunity to acquire a proprietary
interest in NeoMedia and thus share in its growth and success. The Stock Option
Plan provides for the granting of non-qualified stock options and "incentive
stock options" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, and provides for the issuance of a maximum of 1,500,000 shares
of common stock. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees of
NeoMedia or its subsidiaries. Stock options, other than incentive stock options,
may be granted to any employee, officer, director or consultant. An employee may
receive more than one grant of a stock option, including simultaneous grants of
different forms of stock options. Options to purchase up to 3,000 shares of
common stock are granted to non-employee directors on the date that such person
first becomes a member of the Board of Directors. Non-employees currently
serving as directors received such options to purchase 3,000 shares as of
November 25, 1996. In addition, beginning with NeoMedia's first annual
stockholder's meeting options to purchase up to an additional 1,000 shares of
common stock will automatically be granted to each non-employee director as of
the date of each annual meeting at which such person is re-elected or continues
to serve as a director.

        The Stock Option Plan is currently administered by the Stock Option
Committee of the Board of Directors The Stock Option Committee is currently
composed of A. Hayes Barclay and James J. Keil and may not include an officer or
employee of NeoMedia. No member of the Committee is eligible to receive stock
options under the Stock Option Plan while serving on the Committee other than
the automatic grant of options to non-employee directors. Subject to the
provisions of the Stock Option Plan, the Committee has exclusive authority to
interpret and administer the Stock Option Plan, to select the persons to whom
stock options are granted, to determine the number of shares to be covered by
each stock option and whether the option granted is an incentive stock option or
a non-qualified stock option, to determine whether the shares covered by the
option are restricted as to transferability and to determine the terms and
conditions upon which each stock option may be exercisable. No stock options
under the Stock Option Plan can be granted after January 31, 1999, and the
maximum term of an option is ten years from the date of its grant. Upon the
occurrence of certain transactions, including a sale, transfer or other
disposition resulting in Charles W. Fritz, William E. Fritz and their affiliates
owning less than a specified percentage of the voting stock of NeoMedia or the
execution of a definitive agreement for the sale of all or substantially all of
NeoMedia's assets or its consolidation or merger where NeoMedia is not the
surviving entity, each then outstanding option immediately becomes exercisable.
Under certain circumstances, the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise
of the options may be increased or decreased.

        The exercise price of each option is determined by the Committee and
must be either the fair market value of each share subject to the option on the
date the option is granted, or at such other price as the Committee determines,
but not less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of the grant.

        In lieu of tendering a cash payment to satisfy the option price, the
optionee may, in the Committee's discretion, satisfy all or a portion of such
option price by delivering shares of NeoMedia's common stock. Such shares of
common stock are valued at their fair market value at the time of exercise.

        Options under the Stock Option Plan are non-transferable other than by
will, the laws of descent or distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic
relations order. Options may be exercised only during the lifetime of the
optionee and, except as may otherwise be provided, only by such individual. The
Committee, in its discretion, may provide that an option is exercisable in
installments and at specified times, and, at any time after the granting of an
option, may accelerate the installment exercise dates. Each grant of an option
is confirmed by an agreement ("Stock Option Agreement") between NeoMedia and the
optionee, which provides, among other things, that shares received upon exercise
of the option cannot be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of for at least
six months from the date of the Stock Option Agreement, none of the outstanding
options can be exercised by the optionee thereof unless such optionee has been
in the continuous employ of NeoMedia to the date of exercise, subject to
termination of employment, death

                                       26

and disability and gives NeoMedia the right, under certain circumstances, to
suspend an optionee's right to exercise an option.

        For options granted prior to July 18, 1996, depending upon the
circumstances of an optionee's termination of employment, such optionee's stock
options may be exercisable following such termination for up to three months,
which is extended to twelve months from the date of death if the optionee dies
during such three month period. If the termination is due to death, the option
is exercisable for twelve months following the date of death. If the optionee's
employment with NeoMedia is terminated without the consent of NeoMedia (other
than due to the optionee's death) or for cause, as determined by the Committee,
then such optionee's right to exercise the then-outstanding stock options
terminates immediately. Options granted subsequent to July 18, 1996, terminate
on the earlier of an optionee's termination of employment for any reason or the
expiration of the term of the option, although the Committee, in its sole
discretion, may allow the option to be exercised for any period following such
termination but no longer than the expiration of the term. If at any time after
termination an optionee engages in "detrimental activity", as defined in the
Stock Option Plan, the Committee, in its discretion, may cause the optionee's
right to exercise the option to be forfeited. Options then exercisable held by a
non-employee director when such person ceases being a director must be exercised
within twelve months following the date such person is no longer serving as a
director, unless such termination of service as a director is due to such
person's death, permanent disability or retirement pursuant to a Company policy,
in which case, such options are exercisable during their remaining terms. The
employment agreements of Messrs. Fritz, Durst and Jensen each provide that upon
termination of employment by NeoMedia, other than for cause, death or
retirement, or by the employee for "Good Reason" as defined in the employment
agreement, any time following this offering, any options granted to the
terminated employee are canceled and, in lieu thereof, such terminated employee
is to receive a cash amount equal to the aggregate spread between the exercise
prices of all options held at such time by such terminated employee and the
higher of the highest bid price of the common stock during the twelve months
immediately preceding the date of termination, or the highest price per share of
common stock actually paid in connection with any change in control of NeoMedia
(as defined), provided that such payments do not violate the provisions of any
option or the Stock Option Plan or other plan then in effect.

        As of March 16, 1998, options to purchase an aggregate of 623,590 shares
of common stock, at an exercise price of $.84, were granted and are outstanding
under NeoMedia's Stock Option Plan, including options to Charles T. Jensen, its
Chief Financial Officer, and to Robert T. Durst, Jr., its Executive
Vice-President, to purchase 90,386 and 153,657 shares of common stock,
respectively. In addition, options to purchase an aggregate of 457,407 shares of
common stock in a range of $4.19 to $10.88 per share have also been granted to
employees, directors and consultants and are outstanding.

        Effective February 1, 1996 (and amended and restated effective July 18,
1996), DTM adopted a 1996 stock option plan providing for the issuance of a
maximum of 400,000 shares of DTM common stock and identical in all other
material respects to NeoMedia's Stock Option Plan. As a result of the Migration
Merger, the DTM stock option plan is no longer in effect, no further options
under the DTM stock option plan will be issued and holders of options to
purchase shares of DTM common stock will, in lieu thereof, receive shares of
NeoMedia's Common stock upon exercise of their options. As of the March 16,
1998, options to purchase 320,872 shares of common stock under the DTM stock
option plan, at an exercise price of $.84 per share have been granted and are
outstanding.

        Following the Migration Merger, the aggregate number of shares of common
stock issuable under NeoMedia's Stock Option Plan was not increased by the
number of shares of stock issuable under the DTM stock option plan but remains
at a maximum of 1,500,000 shares, including options granted under the DTM stock
option plan. As of March 16, 1998, of the 1,500,000 options issuable under
NeoMedia's Stock Option Plan, there are currently options granted to purchase an
aggregate of 1,401,869 shares of common stock (including 320,872 options granted
under the DTM stock option plan), and 26,348 options reserved for future
issuance under the Stock Option Plan.

        In addition to the Stock Option Plan, the board of directors adopted
another stock option plan (the 1998 Stock Option Plan) which has been submitted
to the stockholders for approval at a special meeting of stockholders on March
27, 1998.

                                       27

        In addition, grantees of options to purchase common stock who are
eligible to resell the common stock issuable upon exercising the option under
Rule 701 of the Securities Act have agreed (i) not to sell such common stock
until after November 25, 1997 and (ii) following such period, to sell in
accordance with the volume limitations of Rule 144(e)(1) of the Securities Act
which limits the number of shares that may be sold by such person during any
three month period to no more than the greater of (a) one percent of NeoMedia's
then outstanding shares of common stock or (b) the average weekly trading volume
of the common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of
notice of sale with the Commission, or if no notice is required to be filed, the
date of receipt by a broker to sell or the date of execution of the sale.

        In consideration of loans made by him to it, NeoMedia has also granted
to Charles W. Fritz a warrant, which contains anti-dilution provisions, to
purchase up to 260,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $8.85. The
Board of Directors approved the acceleration of the exercise date to September
16, 1997 from November 25, 1997, and in September, 1997, Mr. Fritz exercised
146,000 of these warrants. On December 11, 1997, the Board of Directors granted
to Mr. Fritz an additional warrant to purchase up to 300,000 shares of common
stock at an exercise price of $7.875 in consideration for his accelerated
exercise of warrants which provided capital to NeoMedia on a more favorable
basis to NeoMedia than obtaining other capital funds.

        The following presents certain information on stock options and warrants
for the Named Executive Officers for the years ended December 31, 1997:

      five years commencing December 11, 1997. Since this was the only warrant
      granted to any employee of NeoMedia, it represents 100% of all warrants of
      this kind granted to employees. When combined with all options granted
      during the year ended December 31, 1997 under NeoMedia's 1996 Stock Option
      Plan, this warrant represents 50.5% of all options and warrants granted to

401(K) PLAN

        NeoMedia maintains a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (the "401(k)
Plan"). All employees of NeoMedia who are 21 years of age and who have completed
three months of service are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan. The
401(k) Plan provides that each participant may make elective contributions of up
to 20% of such participant's pre-tax salary (up to a statutorily prescribed
annual limit, which is $9,500 for 1997) to the 401(k) Plan, although the
percentage elected by certain highly compensated participants may be required to
be lower. All amounts contributed to the 401(k) Plan by employee participants
and earnings on these contributions are fully vested at all times. The 401(k)
Plan also provides for matching and discretionary contributions by NeoMedia. To
date, NeoMedia has not made any such contributions.

(1)    Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the
       Securities and Exchange Commission, and includes generally voting power
       and/or investment power with respect to securities. Options to purchase
       shares of Common Stock currently exercisable or exercisable within sixty
       days of March 16, 1998 are deemed outstanding for computing the
       beneficial ownership percentage of the person holding such options but

       percentage of any other person. Except as indicated by footnote, to the
       knowledge of NeoMedia, the persons named in the table above have the sole
       voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Common Stock
       shown as beneficially owned by them.

ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

        In December, 1995 and January, 1996, in a series of transactions between
affiliates, funds were loaned and borrowed between Charles W. Fritz, William E.
Fritz, Gen-Tech, Inc. ("Gen-Tech"), an Illinois corporation, owned by William E.
Fritz, Dev-Mark, Inc. ("Dev-Mark"), an Illinois corporation, solely owned by
William E. Fritz, DTM and NeoMedia.

        In the transactions occurring in December, 1995: (1) Charles W. Fritz
loaned $450,000 to DTM, which used such funds to pay existing indebtedness of
$230,000, $150,000 and $70,000 to NeoMedia, Gen-Tech and William E. Fritz,
respectively, and (2) NeoMedia paid $230,000 to William E. Fritz in partial
payment of existing indebtedness.

        In the transactions occurring in January, 1996: (1) Charles W. Fritz
loaned $750,000 to DTM, which used such funds to pay existing indebtedness of
$20,000 and $370,000 to William E. Fritz and NeoMedia, respectively, (2) DTM
loaned $360,000 to NeoMedia, (3) NeoMedia paid $183,000 and $75,000 to William
E. Fritz and Dev-Mark, respectively, for existing indebtedness, and (4) NeoMedia
loaned William E. Fritz $472,000.

        The result of such transactions occurring in December, 1995, and
January, 1996, with respect to NeoMedia was that (1) NeoMedia and DTM paid in
its entirety any indebtedness owed by them to William E. Fritz, (2) NeoMedia
loaned to William E. Fritz the principal sum of $472,000, represented by a note
payable within 30 days of demand, bearing interest at eight percent per annum,
(3) NeoMedia paid in its entirety any indebtedness owed by it to Dev-Mark, (4)
Charles W. Fritz loaned to DTM the aggregate principal sum of $1,200,000,
represented by notes payable within thirty days of demand, bearing interest at
eight percent per annum, (5) DTM paid to William E. Fritz,

                                       32

<PAGE>


NeoMedia and Gen-Tech, in their entirety, any indebtedness existing prior to or
incurred as a result of such transactions, (6) DTM loaned to NeoMedia the
principal sum of $360,000, which is represented by a note payable within 30 days
of demand, bearing interest at eight percent per annum. The $472,000 loan
receivable from William E. Fritz was repaid in full in February, 1997.

        Following these series of transactions occurring in December, 1995 and
January, 1996, Migration was indebted to Charles W. Fritz in the aggregate
principal amount of $1,210,000, which was comprised of the $1,200,000 resulting
from these transactions and a $10,000 loan made in 1994. This $1,210,000
principal amount remained unpaid until October 1996, at which time Mr. Fritz
contributed $738,000 of such indebtedness to additional paid-in capital of
NeoMedia, thus reducing such aggregate principal indebtedness to him from
Migration to $472,000. This loan was repaid in full in February, 1997.

        In March 1996, Dev-Mark loaned to NeoMedia the principal sum of
$135,000, represented by a promissory note, payable within thirty days of
demand, bearing interest at the rate of eight percent payable on the last day of
each calendar month. This loan was repaid in full in December, 1996. In March,
1996, Charles W. Fritz loaned to NeoMedia the principal sum of $35,958.19,
represented by a promissory note, payable within thirty days of demand, bearing
interest at the rate of eight percent payable on the last day of each calendar
month. $6,000 of the principal amount of this loan was repaid in several days
from the date of the loan. The remaining principal amount of $29,958.19 was paid
in August, 1996. In June, 1996, Charles W. Fritz loaned to NeoMedia the
principal sum of $200,000, represented by a promissory note, payable within
thirty days of demand, bearing interest at the rate of eight percent payable on
the last day of each calendar month. This loan was repaid in full in December,
1996.

        In June, 1996, in consideration of loans made by Charles W. Fritz to it,
NeoMedia granted to him a warrant (the "Principal Stockholder's Warrant") to
purchase up to 260,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price $8.85. This
warrant is exercisable for a period of four years commencing on November 25,
1997 and contains anti-dilution provisions. In September, 1997, pursuant to a
resolution adopted by the board of directors authorizing the acceleration of the
exercise date of the warrant to September 16, 1997, Mr. Fritz exercised warrants
to purchase 146,000 shares of common stock. In December, 1997, the Board of
Directors granted to Mr. Fritz an additional warrant to purchase up to 300,000
shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.875. This warrant is
exercisable over a period of four years commencing on December 11, 1998 and was
granted in consideration of the accelerated exercise of the warrant for 260,000
shares which provided capital to NeoMedia on a more favorable basis to NeoMedia
than obtaining other capital funds.

        In connection with the extension of credit facilities by NBD Bank to
NeoMedia in 1994, and in connection with the renewal of such credit facility (1)
Gen-Tech (with respect to the first renewal in 1995 of the facility) and
Dev-Mark (with respect to the initial facility) guaranteed NeoMedia's
obligations to the Bank; (2) William E. Fritz pledged to the lender, as
collateral for the loan, all shares of Gen-Tech stock owned by him until the
second renewal in August, 1996, when such stock was released; (3) NeoMedia
assigned to the Bank all of its rights in the demand promissory note for
$500,000 from DTM to NeoMedia, and the security agreement between NeoMedia and
DTM until the second renewal in August, 1996, when NeoMedia and DTM became
co-borrowers; and (4) William E. Fritz (and Dev-Mark and Gen-Tech with respect
to the first renewal of the facility) subordinated rights to the Bank. In
February, 1997, William E. Fritz, Dev-Mark and Gen-Tech were released from the
guarantees on the NBD credit facility, including the letter of credit.

        In July, 1995, NeoMedia purchased from the estate of a deceased
stockholder, 36 shares (506,161 shares on a post-exchange, post reverse stock
split basis) of NeoMedia's common stock for $450,000. The purchase price, which
was arrived at through negotiations between management and the estate of the
deceased stockholder, is evidenced by a non-interest bearing promissory note
payable in 36 equal installments of $12,500 each. Such shares were all of the
shares of common stock owned by such deceased stockholder and represented 18% of
the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock of NeoMedia.

        NeoMedia leases approximately 2,000 square feet under terms of a written
lease from GEDA, Inc. which is a corporation owned by Gerald L. Willis who is a
shareholder in and consultant to NeoMedia and a former owner of Allegiant. The
lease expires in January, 2000. During 1997, NeoMedia made lease payments in
accordance with this lease totaling $36,000.

        Charles W. Fritz, Gen-Tech and Dev-Mark have each guaranteed NeoMedia's
obligations to IBM Credit Corporation ("ICC") under credit and financing
accommodations granted by ICC to NeoMedia. In addition, each guarantor
subordinated to ICC any liabilities and obligations owed to them by NeoMedia. If
any guarantor breaches the guaranty, ICC has the right, among other things, to
require immediate payment of all indebtedness of NeoMedia. In February, 1997,
Gen-Tech and Dev-Mark were released from the guarantees to ICC.

        In November, 1996, NeoMedia entered into a lease with a William E. Fritz
whereby Mr. Fritz leased to NeoMedia an exhibition booth which cost $85,435. The
lease is for 36 months with monthly payments of $2,858.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
NeoMedia Technologies, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of NeoMedia
Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries ("NeoMedia") as of December 31, 1997, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and shareholders'
equity for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the NeoMedia's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
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 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
NeoMedia as of December 31, 1997, and the consolidated results of their
operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. ("Technologies") was incorporated under the
laws of the state of Delaware in July, 1996 to acquire by merger Dev-Tech
Associates, Inc. ("Dev-Tech"), an Illinois corporation, which was incorporated
in December, 1989. On August 5, 1996, Technologies acquired all of the shares of
Dev-Tech in exchange for the issuance of shares of Technologies' common stock to
the shareholders of Dev-Tech. Dev-Tech Migration, Inc. ("DTM") was incorporated
in June, 1994, in Illinois. On November 20, 1996, DTM was merged into NeoMedia
Migration, Inc. ("Migration"), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned
subsidiary of Technologies (the "Migration Merger"). Since Migrations's
inception, Technologies and Migration shared certain management and were
controlled by common shareholders. These transactions were accounted for in a
manner similar to the pooling of interests method of accounting using historical
book values rather than fair market value as all entities involved were under
common control. Distribuidora Vallarta, S.A.("DVSA"), a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Migration, was incorporated in Guatemala in August, 1996, to employ computer
software developers and system integrators.

     On September 25, 1997, in accordance with a Stock Purchase Agreement (the
"Allegiant Merger") entered into between the parties, NeoMedia acquired all of
the stock in Allegiant Legacy Solutions, Inc. ("Allegiant"), which was founded
on February 16, 1996. Allegiant primarily sells licenses to proprietary software
tools (including "ADAPT/2000") that identify, seek and automatically correct
date data that is stored in various formats across both program code and
specific data files. The previous shareholders of Allegiant received an
aggregate of 1,070,000 shares of authorized, but unissued common stock of
NeoMedia. The number of shares of NeoMedia's common stock received by the
previous shareholders of Allegiant was determined through arms-length
negotiations between the parties. One former shareholder entered into an
employment agreement with NeoMedia and the other former shareholder entered into
a consulting agreement with NeoMedia. The Allegiant Merger was accounted for as
a pooling of interests, and accordingly, all financial information has been
restated as if the entities were combined for all prior periods. For the six
months ended June 30,1997, total unaudited net sales as historically reported
for NeoMedia and Allegiant were $11,825,000 and $710,000, respectively, and
unaudited net income (loss) was $(2,499,000) and $248,000, respectively. For the
year ended December 31, 1996, total net sales as historically reported for
NeoMedia and Allegiant were $17,518,000 and $563,000, respectively, and net loss
was $3,075,000 and $1,000, respectively.

     Technologies, Migration, Allegiant and DVSA are collectively referred to as
"NeoMedia" or the "Company" and the consolidated financial statements of
NeoMedia are presented on a consolidated basis for all periods presented. The
financial position and results of NeoMedia as of and for the periods prior to
these mergers have been combined in a manner consistent with NeoMedia's
consolidation principles as of December 31, 1997. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in preparation of the
consolidated financial statements.

     In July, 1995, Dev-Tech purchased 36 shares of its common stock in exchange
for a non-interest bearing uncollateralized note payable for $450,000. The note
payable is due in 36 monthly installments of $12,500 commencing August, 1995. As
of December 31, 1995, the acquired shares were recorded in treasury stock in the
consolidated balance sheet at cost of $391,000 which equals the carrying value
of the note discounted at Dev-Tech's incremental borrowing rate of 10%. The
discount is being accreted to interest expense over the term of the note. In
May, 1996, Dev-Tech filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to
retire these 36 shares (506,161 shares on a post-exchange and reverse stock
split basis) of common stock.

NATURE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS

     NeoMedia operates in one business segment which is comprised of three
principal applications markets: (i) Intelligent Document/TM/ Solutions
("IDOCs/TM/") Unit, (ii) Document Systems Solutions Unit and (iii) Year 2000 /
Migration Solutions Unit

     The IDOCS UNIT was established to assist clients in embedding active data
elements in standard printed documents or on physical objects for the purpose of
launching computer programs and creating automated links to the World Wide Web.
NeoMedia has developed its own technology, and has rights to use the technology
of others, to generate printed documents and enhance physical objects which can
be automatically "read" by machines, such as computers equipped with scanners
and appropriate software. These "machine readable" documents or physical objects
incorporate printed codes which contain thousands of bytes of information,
including computer programs rendering them functionally equivalent to a computer
floppy disk. With this functionality, a user may access additional information
about, assess validity of, or determine authenticity of, such document or
object. These codes are referred to in the industry as "high capacity
symbologies" and "multi-dimensional" or "two dimensional" bar codes and NeoMedia
currently provides software and services to support the application of this
technology.

     The DOCUMENTS SYSTEMS SOLUTIONS UNIT was established to assist clients in
optimizing the creation, production and management of printed documents and
printed document processes. These efforts have historically focused on designing
and providing complete, client specific, high speed and high volume document
formatting and printing solutions. Recently, services of the Document Systems
Solutions Unit have been expanded to include Integrated Document Factories
("IDF's"), a complete, client specific system solution for automating,
monitoring and managing print-to-mail processes. IDF's incorporate manufacturing
principles and IDOCsTM technology, enabling clients not only to achieve maximum
efficiencies in their print processes, but to also ensure document integrity and
traceability.

     The YEAR 2000 / MIGRATION SOLUTIONS UNIT was established to enable and
assist clients to implement mass changes in computer software and hardware
systems, including (i) identifying, seeking and automatically correcting
restrictive source and application fields which store data, including among
other items, dates (adding two digits to a two-digit date field when four digits
are required to correct the Year 2000 problem), stock prices (converting from a
fractional to a decimal measurement system) and European currencies (converting
to the new European Monetary Unit of Measure, commonly known as the
"Eurodollar"), and (ii) conversions from legacy to open systems.

     As part of the services provided in connection with the above solutions it
offers, NeoMedia often recommends, specifies, supplies and installs equipment
and software products from third-party software and hardware vendors, leading
consulting firms and major system integrators, many of whom have strategic
alliances with NeoMedia. These alliances are integral to NeoMedia's business
operations. NeoMedia principally markets and distributes its products through
distributors in the United States (although it has distributors in Europe and
Latin America which have not generated material sales), and currently has U. S.
district offices located in Florida, Illinois, and Ohio.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

     For the purposes of the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated
statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with original maturities
of three months or less are considered cash equivalents.

ESTIMATES

     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 at the
date

                                      F-8

<PAGE>
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

     License fees represent revenue from the licensing of NeoMedia's proprietary
software tools and applications products. NeoMedia licenses its development
tools and application products pursuant to non-exclusive and non-transferable
license agreements. Software and technology equipment resales represent revenue
from the resale of purchased third party hardware and software products. Service
fees represent revenue from consulting, education, and post contract software
support services.

     NeoMedia recognizes software license revenue in accordance with the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 91-1,
"Software Revenue Recognition" ("SOP 91-1"). Software license fees are
recognized upon shipment to the customer to the extent that collection is
probable and the remaining obligations of NeoMedia are insignificant.

     NeoMedia recognizes support revenue over the life of the support contract.
Software and technology equipment resale revenue is recognized when all of the
components necessary to run software or hardware have been shipped and only
insignificant post-delivery obligations remain. Historically, product returns
and allowances have been insignificant. Service revenues include maintenance
fees for providing system updates for software products, user documentation and
technical support, and sales of NeoMedia's proprietary software which is not
bundled with hardware or software of third parties. Other service revenues,
including training and consulting, are recognized as the services are performed.

     In 1997, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
Statement of Position 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition" ("SOP 97-2"), which
becomes effective for NeoMedia for the year ended December 31, 1998 and
supersedes SOP 91-1. Under SOP 97-2, software revenue is not recognized until
the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
delivery has occurred, the NeoMedia's fee is fixed or determinable and
collectibility is probable. The impact of adopting SOP 97-2 is not deemed to be
material to NeoMedia's consolidated financial statements.

INVENTORIES

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market and are comprised of
purchased computer technology resale products. Cost is determined using the
first-in, first-out method.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     Property and equipment are carried at cost less allowances for accumulated
depreciation. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.
Depreciation is generally computed using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives range
from three to five years for equipment and up to seven years for furniture and
fixtures. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the life of
the lease or the useful lives of the related assets. Upon retirement or sale,
cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or
loss is reflected in the statement of operations.

CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE COSTS

     Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed." Costs associated with the
planning and designing phase of software development, including coding and
testing activities necessary to establish technological feasibility, are
classified as product development and expensed as incurred. Once

                                      F-9

<PAGE>

technological feasibility has been determined, additional costs incurred in
development, including coding, testing, quality assurance and documentation
writing, are capitalized.

     Amortization of purchased and developed software is provided on a
product-by-product basis over the estimated economic life of the software,
generally not exceeding three years, using the straight-line method.
Amortization commences when a product is available for general release to
customers. Unamortized capitalized costs determined to be in excess of the net
realizable value of a product are expensed at the date of such determination.

INCOME TAXES

     In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes" ("FAS 109"), income taxes are accounted for using
the assets and liabilities approach. 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.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred
tax assets will not be recognized. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period of
enactment.

     DTM, with the consent of its shareholder, and Allegiant, with the consent
of its shareholders, elected to be treated as small business corporations (S
corporation under the Internal Revenue Code) for income tax purposes.
Accordingly, until the Migration Merger and Allegiant Merger, their respective
taxable income and related tax credits were reportable by the shareholders on
their individual income tax returns. The pro forma benefit for income taxes, net
loss and per share information for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
of the combined operations of NeoMedia, Allegiant and DTM calculated using the
statutory tax rates in effect during the applicable periods, as if Allegiant and
DTM were taxable as a C Corporation, are identical to the historic information
presented in NeoMedia's consolidated financial statements. No income tax benefit
would have been recognized from the net operating losses of DTM as a 100%
valuation allowance would have been recorded against a deferred tax asset as a
result of the uncertainty of DTM's ability to generate future taxable income.

COMPUTATION OF LOSS PER SHARE

     Effective December 31, 1997, NeoMedia adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("FAS 128") which replaces
the presentation of primary earnings per share with basic earnings per share and
which requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share on the
Consolidated Statements of Operations. FAS 128 requires restatement of all
prior-period earnings per share data presented. Basic net earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during the period, and diluted net earnings per share
includes the effect of unexercised stock options and warrants using the treasury
stock method. The treasury stock method assumes that common stock was purchased
at the average market price during the period. Because the assumed exercise of
stock options and warrants would have an antidilutive effect on the net loss per
share for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, no exercise of stock
options and warrants were assumed and no diluted net loss per share was
presented.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The fair value of NeoMedia's debt, current and long-term, is estimated to
approximate the carrying value of these liabilities based upon borrowing rates
currently available to NeoMedia for borrowings with similar terms.

CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

     Financial instruments that potentially subject NeoMedia to concentrations
of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable with customers.
Credit risk is generally minimized as a result of the large number and diverse

                                      F-10

<PAGE>

nature of NeoMedia's customers which are located throughout the United States.
NeoMedia extends credit to its customers as determined on an individual basis
and has included an allowance for doubtful accounts of $191,000 and $221,000 in
its December 31, 1997 and 1996 consolidated balance sheets, respectively.
NeoMedia had net sales to one major customer in the telecommunications industry
(Ameritech Services, Inc.) of $9,447,000 and $6,932,000 during the years ended
December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, resulting in trade accounts receivable
of $3,116,000 and $2,507,000 as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Revenue generated from the remarketing of computer software and technology
equipment has accounted for a significant percentage of NeoMedia's revenue. Such
sales accounted for approximately 79% and 83% of NeoMedia's revenue for the
years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK OPTIONS

     Effective January 1, 1996, NeoMedia adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("FAS
123") which requires certain disclosures about stock-based employee compensation
arrangements, regardless of the method used to account for them, and defines a
fair-value based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar
equity instrument and encourages all entities to adopt that method of accounting
for all of their employee stock compensation plans. However, FAS 123 also allows
an entity to continue to measure compensation cost for stock-based compensation
plans using the intrinsic-value method of accounting prescribed by Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees"
("APB 25"). Entities electing to continue using the accounting method in APB 25
must make pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the
fair-value method of accounting had been adopted. Under the fair-value method,
compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award
and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period.
Under the intrinsic-value based method, compensation cost is the excess, if any,
of the quoted market price of the stock at grant date or other measurement date
over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Because NeoMedia
elected to continue using the accounting method in APB 25, no compensation
expense was recognized in the consolidated statement of operations for the years
ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 for stock-based employee compensation. Had
compensation cost for NeoMedia's stock-based compensation plan been determined
using the fair-value method of accounting, NeoMedia's net loss and loss per
share would have been increased to $6,364,000, or ($.96) per share in 1997, and
$3,400,000 or ($.80) per share, in 1996.

     For grants in 1997 and 1996, the following assumptions were used: (i) no
expected dividends; (ii) a risk-free interest rate of 6.00% for both years,
except for the options granted in 1996 at $.84 where 5.05% was used; (iii)
expected volatility of 37% and 25%, respectively, and (iv) an expected life of 3
years. The fair-value was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model.

     The estimated fair value of grants of stock options and warrants to
non-employees of NeoMedia is charged to expense in the consolidated financial
statements.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     In June, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("FAS
130"), which becomes effective for NeoMedia on January 1, 1998. FAS 130
establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income, which FAS 130 defines
as the change in equity of an enterprise except for those changes resulting from
shareholder transactions. All components of comprehensive income are required to
be reported in a new financial statement that is displayed with equal prominence
as existing financial statements. As FAS 130 addresses reporting and
presentation issues only, there will be no impact on operations from its
adoption.

     In June, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of

</TABLE>

     During the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, NeoMedia recognized
amortization expense applicable to purchased software of $419,000 and $531,000,
respectively, and amortization expense applicable to internally developed
software of $86,000 and $124,000, respectively.

     In October 1994, DTM purchased, via seller financing, certain computer
software from International Digital Scientific, Inc. ("IDSI"). The aggregate
purchase price was $2,000,000 and was funded by an uncollateralized seller
payable, without interest, in an amount equal to the greater of : (i) 5% of the
collected gross revenues of Migration for the preceding month; or (ii) the
minimum installment payment as defined, until paid in full. The minimum
installment payment is the amount necessary to provide an average monthly
payment for the most recent twelve month period of $16,000 per month. The
present value of $2,000,000 discounted at 9% (DTM's incremental borrowing rate)
for 125 months was approximately $1,295,000, the capitalized cost of the assets
acquired. The discount is being accreted to interest expense over the term of
the note. The software acquired was being amortized over its estimated useful
life of three years. As of December 31, 1997 and 1996, the balance of the note
payable, net of unamortized discount, was $1,020,000 and $1,115,000,
respectively.

5.   FINANCING AGREEMENTS

     Technologies entered into an agreement with a commercial finance company
that provides short-term financing for certain computer hardware and software
purchases. Under the agreement, there are generally no financing charges for
amounts paid within 30 or 45 days, depending on the vendor used to source the
product. Borrowings are collateralized by accounts receivable generated from the
sales of merchandise to NeoMedia's customers and are personally guaranteed by
certain shareholders of NeoMedia. In addition, as of December 31, 1997, a
$750,000 letter of credit was issued to the benefit the commercial finance
company. NeoMedia collateralized this letter of credit with a $750,000
certificate of deposit. As of December 31, 1997 and 1996, amounts due under this
financing agreement included in accounts payable were $2,651,000 and $2,275,000,
respectively.

     In January, 1996, NeoMedia borrowed $750,000 (which bore interest at 8% per
annum and was payable on demand) from a principal shareholder, increasing the
total notes payable to this shareholder to $1,210,000. In October 1996, this
shareholder contributed $738,000 of this note to additional paid-in capital
leaving a balance as of December 31, 1996 of $472,000. In February, 1997,
NeoMedia repaid the note in full.

</TABLE>

     As of December 31, 1997, NeoMedia had net operating loss carryforwards for
federal tax purposes totaling approximately $7,462,000 which may be used to
offset future taxable income, or, if unused $1,644,000 will expire in 2011 and
$5,818,000 will expire in 2012. As a result of certain of NeoMedia's equity
activities occurring during the year ended December 31, 1997, NeoMedia
anticipates that the annual usage of such net operating loss carryforwards may
be restricted pursuant to the provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue
Code. Because the realization of NeoMedia's net operating losses carryforwards
is uncertain, a valuation allowance has been established against it and other
deferred income tax assets.

8.   TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

     NeoMedia made advances to various related parties including companies
affiliated through common ownership. These advances arose from expenses paid by
NeoMedia on behalf of the affiliated companies and allocations of certain
administrative costs for services provided by NeoMedia. No administrative costs
were allocated to affiliated companies during the year ended December 31, 1997,
and $27,000 was allocated during the year ended December 31, 1996. As of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, the amounts due from related parties totalled $6,000
and $24,000, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
NeoMedia and certain employees leased office and residential facilities from
related parties for rental payments totalling $12,000 and $11,000, respectively.

     On January 2, 1996, NeoMedia provided to one of its principal shareholders
an advance of $472,000 payable within 30 days of demand by NeoMedia. This loan
bore interest at 8% payable on a monthly basis. This loan was repaid in full in
February, 1997.

     In March, 1996, NeoMedia borrowed $135,000 from a related entity and
$36,000 from a principal shareholder, payable within thirty days of demand,
bearing interest at 8% per annum. In June, 1996, NeoMedia borrowed $200,000 from
NeoMedia's Chief Executive Officer and a principal shareholder, payable within
thirty days of demand, bearing interest at 8% per annum. The net proceeds from
these financing transactions were used for general corporate operating purposes.
These loans were repaid in full during 1996. In connection with the June, 1996
note, NeoMedia granted a warrant to the shareholder to purchase up to 260,000
shares of NeoMedia's common stock at an exercise price of $8.85. This warrant is
exercisable until November 25, 2001. On September 16,1997, the board of
directors of NeoMedia approved an acceleration of the date when this warrant
could be exercised and the shareholder exercised the warrant to purchase 146,000
shares of common stock. Assuming a risk-free interest rate of 6.25%, an expected
life of three years, an expected volatility of 25% and no expected dividends,
the effect of using the fair-value method of accounting on net loss for the year
ended December 31, 1996 would have increased net loss to $3,115,000, or ($.73)
per share.

     On December 11,1997, the board of directors granted a warrant to purchase
up to an additional 300,000 shares of NeoMedia's common stock at an exercise
price of $7.875 to NeoMedia's Chief Executive Officer and a principal
shareholder. This warrant is exercisable until December 11, 2002 and was granted
in consideration of the accelerated

                                      F-15

<PAGE>

exercise of the warrant for 260,000 shares which provided capital to NeoMedia on
a more favorable basis to NeoMedia than obtaining other capital funds. Assuming
a risk-free interest rate of 6.0%, an expected life of 1.5 years, an expected
volatility of 37% and no expected dividends, the Black-Scholes model computed a
fair value of approximately $515,000.

     NeoMedia has entered into various employment and consulting agreements
which require an aggregate of approximately $1.1 million in annual payments.
These employment and consulting agreements extend to various dates through 2001.

9.   LEASES

     NeoMedia leases certain office equipment, principally telecommunication
equipment, under leases which are capital in nature. As of December 31, 1997 and
1996, NeoMedia had net assets of $43,000 and $53,000, respectively, under these
capital leases.

     NeoMedia leases its office facilities and certain office and computer
equipment under various operating leases. These leases provide for minimum rents
and generally include options to renew for additional periods. For the years
ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, NeoMedia's rent expense was $628,000 and
$353,000, respectively. Beginning December 1, 1996, NeoMedia subleased a portion
of its office facilities until the lease expires.

     The aggregate amount of expected future lease payments and receipts under
operating leases for each of the next five years ending December 31 was as
follows:


                                          PAYMENTS    RECEIPTS
                                          --------    --------

                                          ========    ========

     In November, 1996, NeoMedia entered into a lease with a principal
shareholder whereby the shareholder leased to NeoMedia an exhibition booth which
cost $85,435. The lease is for 36 months with monthly payments of $2,858.

10.  DEFINED CONTRIBUTION SAVINGS PLAN

     NeoMedia maintains a defined contribution 401(k) savings plan covering
substantially all eligible employees meeting certain minimum age and months of
service requirements, as defined. Participants may make elective contributions
up to established limits. All amounts contributed by participants and earnings
on these contributions are fully vested at all times. The plan provides for
matching and discretionary contributions by NeoMedia, although no such
contributions to the plan have been made to date.

11.  EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN

     Effective February 1, 1996, NeoMedia adopted the 1996 Stock Option Plan
making available for grant to employees of NeoMedia options to purchase up to
1,500,000 shares of NeoMedia's common stock. The stock option committee of the
board of directors has the authority to determine to whom options will be
granted, the number of options, the related term, and exercise price. The option
exercise price shall be equal to or in excess of the fair market value per share
of NeoMedia's common stock on the date of grant. Options granted during 1997 and
1996

                                      F-16

<PAGE>

were granted at an exercise price equal to fair market value on the date of
grant. Options granted can not be exercised during the year following the date
of grant and must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant.

     A summary of the status of NeoMedia's stock option plan as of and for the
years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 is as follows:

12.  PUBLIC OFFERING OF COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS

     On November 25, 1996, NeoMedia completed an initial public offering ("IPO")
of 1,235,000 shares of common stock at $5.90 per share and 1,700,000 redeemable
warrants, at $.10 per warrant, to purchase shares of common stock, and an
offering by certain selling security holders of an additional 465,000 shares of
NeoMedia's common stock. The selling security holders also were issued 745,938
warrants upon conversion of convertible notes from NeoMedia. In addition, on
January 16, 1997, NeoMedia completed the sale of an over-allotment of 255,000
shares of common stock and 255,000 redeemable warrants. On November 10, 1997,
NeoMedia announced the redemption of all its outstanding publicly-traded
warrants. The warrant holders had until December 18, 1997 to convert each
warrant to a share of common stock at an exercise price of $7.375 or to sell the
warrant. Any warrants outstanding

                                      F-17

<PAGE>

as of December 31, 1997 were redeemed by NeoMedia for $.05 per warrant. Of the
2,700,938 warrants outstanding, 1,662,633 were exercised for gross proceeds
of $12.3 million and 1,038,305 were redeemed at $.05 per warrant, or a total of
$52,000.

     In connection with the IPO, NeoMedia agreed to sell to the underwriters,
for nominal consideration, warrants to purchase up to 170,000 shares of common
stock and 170,000 warrants (collectively, the "Underwriters Warrants"). The
Underwriters Warrants are exercisable at a price of $8.85 per share of common
stock and warrant until November 25, 2001.

     On May 1, 1997, NeoMedia issued, to an investment banking firm, a warrant
at an exercise price of $7.375 per share to purchase 375,000 shares of common
stock until November 25, 2001 and to another investment banking firm a warrant
at an exercise price of $10.125 per share to purchase 65,000 shares of common
stock until November 25, 2001. On December 11, 1997, NeoMedia issued to outside
consultants three warrants to purchase 408,332 shares of NeoMedia common stock
until December 11, 2002. Of these 408,332 warrants, 173,332 were issued at an
exercise price of $8.85 per share, 135,000 were issued at an exercise price of
$7.50 per share, and 100,000 were issued at an exercise price of $10.00 per
share. Assuming an expected life of 1.5 years, expected volatilities of 37%, a
risk-free interest rate of 6.0%, and no expected dividends, the fair-values of
these five warrants were calculated using the Black-Scholes model to be $716,000
of which $461,000 was charged to expense and $255,000 was charged to the
proceeds of the publicly-traded warrants called on December 18, 1997.

13.  BRIDGE FINANCING

     During July and August 1996, NeoMedia issued, in a private placement,
convertible promissory notes due in September 1997. Each unit consisted of a
$50,000 10% promissory note convertible into 13,750 shares and 13,750 warrants
of NeoMedia's common stock upon consummation of the IPO valued at an average of
$3.64 per share. NeoMedia received $2,697,000 in cash proceeds from this private
placement, net of $278,000 in expenses. These expenses were amortized to
interest expense over the life of the notes. NeoMedia retired $262,500 of these
notes on November 23, 1996. Of the remaining 745,938 shares available for
conversion, 465,000 were sold by the note holders in the IPO.

14.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     On December 11, 1997, NeoMedia's board of directors recommended to NeoMedia
stockholders an amendment to NeoMedia's Certificate of Incorporation to increase
the number of shares of authorized common stock to 50,000,000 shares and to
authorize the creation of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value.
These additional shares may be issued at the discretion of the board of
directors and will be used, among other purposes, for future financing and
acquisition transactions, common stock dividends or splits, and the exercise of
stock options issued pursuant to the terms of the 1996 and 1998 Stock Option
Plans.

     On December 11,1997, the board of directors also recommended the adoption
of the 1998 Stock Option Plan which authorizes the grant of non-qualified
options to purchase up to an aggregate of 8,000,000 shares of NeoMedia's common
stock to officers and full-time salaried employees of NeoMedia with managerial,
professional, or supervisory responsibilities, consultants and other advisors
who render bona fide services to NeoMedia and to NeoMedia's directors.

     The above recommendations of the board of directors were submitted to the
stockholders for approval at a special meeting of stockholders on March 27,
1998.
