ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
OVERVIEW
 
    Mediconsult ("Mediconsult" or the "Company") is a leading provider of
patient-oriented healthcare information and services on the World Wide Web. The
Company's Web sites provide a trusted source of comprehensive and easy to
understand medical information and are designed to empower consumers through
increased education related to medical conditions and treatment alternatives.
The Web sites also provide a destination on the Internet where visitors can
interact with others in a community environment. The Company facilitates this
environment through a well-organized, easy to navigate format and an array of
complementary services, including moderated on-line support groups and
discussion forums. By fostering communities centered around prevalent medical
conditions and health issues, the Company believes it creates significant
opportunities for pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies to reach a
highly-targeted consumer audience using Internet-based marketing and advertising
programs.
 
    The address of the Company is 33 Reid Street, 4th Floor, Hamilton, Bermuda.
The Company's telephone number is (441) 292-0474. Its main Web site is
WWW.MEDICONSULT.COM. Information contained on its Web sites is not, and should
not be deemed to be, a part of this report.
 
INDUSTRY BACKGROUND
 
    As consumers have become more proactive in their personal healthcare
decisions, they have increasingly searched for information about medical
conditions, treatment alternatives and medical outcomes. The Internet enables
consumers to access large quantities of this information quickly and easily.
 
    THE RAPID GROWTH OF THE INTERNET.  The growth of the Internet as a new means
of communicating, accessing information and engaging in commerce has been rapid
and is expected to accelerate. Jupiter Communications estimates that the number
of Internet users worldwide will grow from approximately 85 million at the end
of 1997 to approximately 250 million by the end of 2002. This growth is being
driven by a number of factors, including a growing base of personal computers in
the home and workplace, improvements in network infrastructure, more convenient,
faster and inexpensive Internet access, technological advances in PCs and
modems, increased quantity and quality of content available on the Internet and
the overall increased public awareness of the Internet. Due to its large
audience, the Internet represents a significant channel for advertisers. Jupiter
Communications estimates that the amount of Internet advertising in the United
States will grow from approximately $300 million in 1996 to approximately $7.7
billion by 2002.
 
    THE INTERNET HEALTHCARE USER.  Health and medical information is one of the
fastest growing areas of interest on the Internet. Cyber Dialogue estimates that
for the 12 months ended July 1998, approximately 17 million adults in the United
States searched on-line for health-related information, an increase of 119%
since July 1996. Cyber Dialogue data indicates that these users are better
educated, have higher household incomes, are more often female and are more
experienced with the Internet than the general population of Internet users.
 
    THE INTERACTIVE NATURE OF THE INTERNET.  The Internet provides an effective
method for consumers to access large quantities of reliable and independent
information on medical conditions, treatment alternatives and medical outcomes.
Management believes that access to this information, together with support
groups and interaction with medical experts on-line, leads to a greater
understanding of health issues and improved patient compliance with
pharmaceutical protocols. The Internet also provides an attractive vehicle for
pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies to increase consumers' awareness
of diagnosed and undiagnosed medical conditions and treatment options. The
Internet allows pharmaceutical companies to easily provide information targeted
to visitors' needs, which may lead to improved patient compliance with
prescribed drug therapies. Consumer Health Information Corporation estimates
that 10% of prescriptions are never filled, 33% are not properly refilled and
50% are not taken as prescribed,
<PAGE>
resulting in poorer health outcomes for patients and increased expenditures to
the overall healthcare
system.
 
    DIRECT-TO-CONSUMER ADVERTISING ON THE INTERNET.  The Internet's interactive
nature, coupled with the demographics of the Internet healthcare user, makes the
Internet an attractive vehicle for direct-to-consumer ("DTC") advertising of
prescription pharmaceuticals. Due to recent regulatory changes regarding the
type of information that may be disclosed to consumers in pharmaceutical
advertising and increased demand for healthcare information by consumers, DTC
advertising of prescription pharmaceuticals has increased from approximately
$590 million in 1996 to an estimated $1.8 billion in 1998 and is projected to
grow to $7.5 billion in 2005. The Company believes that the Internet will
capture an increasing portion of this market as pharmaceutical companies
recognize the value of this medium for their products.
 
THE SOLUTION
 
    Through its Web sites, the Company addresses consumers' needs for healthcare
information and provides a targeted marketing and advertising platform for
pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies. Key elements of this solution
include:
 
    HIGH QUALITY TRUSTED CONTENT; USER-FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT.  The Company
provides its visitors with high quality content on specific medical conditions
and health issues and an easy-to-navigate environment. The Company searches for
and reviews extensive amounts of health information and select relevant material
from a wide variety of sources, including medical journals, healthcare
association literature and general periodicals. For each medical topic covered
on its Web sites, the Company aggregates an average of 30 articles covering
current news, symptoms and treatment alternatives that are understandable to the
average consumer. MEDICONSULT.COM is constructed to enable a person interested
in any one of the 60 medical topics covered on the Company's Web sites to access
a broad range of information, including relevant information on other portions
of its Web sites. For example, a visitor to the diabetes page will be referred
to relevant information for diabetics on the nutrition section. The Company
frequently solicits visitor feedback through surveys and polls and uses this
information to refine further its content and expand its complementary
offerings.
 
    STRONG SENSE OF ON-LINE COMMUNITY.  The Company has developed a strong sense
of on-line community by organizing its Web sites into conditions of concern to
healthcare consumers and providing complementary services. The Company's Web
sites provide visitors with the ability to:
 
    - share and search for information in consultation with healthcare
      professionals on particular conditions;
 
    - communicate (through chat groups, bulletin boards, and participation in
      polls and surveys) with other visitors with similar health conditions,
      interests or experiences;
 
    - participate in moderated on-line support groups;
 
    - participate in live, on-line events hosted by prominent physicians; and
 
    - receive quick responses from its visitor support staff.
 
    LARGE, HIGHLY TARGETED AUDIENCE.  The Company's Web sites are designed to
attract a highly desirable target audience for pharmaceutical and other
healthcare advertisers. The Company has developed a sophisticated, integrated
database of demographic information about patients' needs, habits, preferences
and intentions. This database of information indicates that approximately 62% of
the visitors to MEDICONSULT.COM have been diagnosed with or believe they have a
chronic medical condition covered on this Web site, and that an additional 21%
are friends, family or caregivers. This data also indicates that 64% of the
visitors to MEDICONSULT.COM are female, the average age of its visitors is 39
and approximately 70% of its
 
                                       2
<PAGE>
visitors are college educated. The Company is able to identify its visitor
traffic patterns by condition or health issue, which provides relevant
information for advertisers seeking to target an audience for a particular
pharmaceutical product or condition.
 
    BROAD, SOPHISTICATED INTERNET HEALTHCARE MARKETING AND ADVERTISING
PROGRAMS.  The Company designs, develops, and implements broad, sophisticated
Internet marketing and advertising programs for pharmaceutical and other
healthcare companies and provides ongoing support services as part of these
programs. The Company utilizes extensive knowledge of the Internet healthcare
user and its high quality content to effectively design and develop programs
focused on a particular product or health issue. These programs incorporate one
or more of a broad spectrum of advertising products ranging from banner
advertisements to customized Web sites containing relevant content from its Web
sites. In addition, the Company creates calls to action, through visitor polls,
surveys and coupons, to allow advertisers to gain more information about the
visitor. The Company designs its on-line marketing and advertising programs to
complement its clients' traditional off-line media campaigns.
 
    VALUE TO ADVERTISERS.  The Company designs its marketing and advertising
programs to address highly targeted audiences, enabling its clients to direct
their advertising dollars toward consumers most likely to use their products.
These programs are structured to provide the Company's advertisers with a
measurable return on investment by tracking the level of interest and
interactive responses of visitors.
 
COMPANY STRATEGY
 
    The Company's strategy is to be the leading provider of healthcare
information to consumers on the Internet and to use this position to provide
targeted marketing and advertising programs for pharmaceutical and other
healthcare companies on the Web. The key elements of this strategy are to:
 
    ENHANCE VISITOR EXPERIENCE AND SENSE OF ON-LINE COMMUNITY.  The Company is
committed to continually improving the utility and perceived value of its Web
sites. The Company seeks to:
 
    - broaden and deepen the content of its Web sites;
 
    - improve the navigability of its Web site environment;
 
    - expand and enhance its suite of complementary services;
 
    - further segment medical topics into more specific ones; and
 
    - tailor its Web sites to meet the needs and preferences of its visitors.
 
    INCREASE TARGETED TRAFFIC THROUGH STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS AND RELATIONSHIPS,
AND CONTENT LICENSING.  The Company seeks to bolster its traffic and revenue
through strategic acquisitions and relationships. The Company believes that it
can increase the number of visitors to MEDICONSULT.COM by linking topic-specific
or condition-specific Web sites to its with "click throughs." The Company has
recently completed strategic initiatives to purchase, manage or sponsor three
significant Web sites to improve the depth and breadth of its medical content
and to increase visitor traffic.
 
    - PHARMLNFO.COM, a leading Web site providing information on pharmaceutical
      products and clinical trials for pharmacists, physicians and consumers;
 
    - CYBERDIET.COM, a Web site providing tailored nutritional information and
      programs; and
 
    - INCIID.ORG, a Web site providing information on infertility.
 
    The Company believes that there will be significant opportunities to
continue to manage or acquire Web sites or content that will complement its
existing content offerings. The Company also increases its visitor traffic and
related revenue opportunities by licensing its content to other Web sites that
it manages.
 
                                       3
<PAGE>
    BROADEN RELATIONSHIPS WITH PHARMACEUTICAL ADVERTISERS.  The Company seeks to
broaden its relationships with pharmaceutical advertisers in several ways. It
seeks to expand its relationships with its existing clients to broaden the
number of programs, both in terms of number of products and types of client
services, that it provides to them. For example, the Company's work with
Novartis Consumer Health Canada, in designing and developing a Web site for the
Habitrol smoking cessation product has led to a relationship with Novartis
Pharma, the pharmaceutical division of Novartis AG. The Company has a number of
projects and proposals with Novartis Pharma currently in process. The Company is
also actively pursuing a number of major pharmaceutical companies and other
healthcare advertisers with proposals tailored to their specific products and
marketing strategies. In addition, the Company is seeking to enter into
corporate partnering relationships to expand and enhance its client base. For
example, the Company's February 1999 memorandum of agreement with CommonHealth
is intended to broaden its marketing initiatives within the pharmaceutical
industry.
 
    BUILD STRONG BRAND AWARENESS.  Management believes that establishing brand
awareness is critical to attracting and retaining visitors and advertisers. The
Company seeks to build its brand by creating a superior visitor experience and
creating broad awareness of its name as the trusted on-line source for medical
information. The Company intends to achieve this goal by expanding its marketing
and educational efforts through both off-line and on-line marketing initiatives,
including collaborative events with patient associations such as the National
Stroke Association and the Arthritis Foundation, speeches and media coverage.
 
THE MEDICONSULT.COM WEB SITE
 
    MEDICONSULT.COM serves as a gateway for access to a comprehensive source of
health-related information focused on the clinical and educational needs of the
general public, as well as practicing physicians and other healthcare
professionals. Since the Company's inception in 1996, it has focused on
developing its reputation as the leading independent provider of health
information to consumers on the Web. MEDICONSULT.COM, includes easy to
understand information on more than 60 chronic medical conditions and health
issues. Management believes that in the United States these medical conditions
affect more than 90 million people and represent a significant portion of
healthcare spending. The specific medical conditions and health issues covered

    Within this group of medical conditions, the Company provides specific
tools, resources, experts and information databases to assist visitors in
dealing with a variety of inquiries including those relating to a recent
diagnosis, general background information, and highly technical drug profiles.
These resources include:
 
    - comprehensive and easy to understand independent medical information from
      a variety of independent sources, including medical journals, healthcare
      association literature and general periodicals;
 
    - a community of visitors with an interest or experience in the topic;
 
    - an on-line moderated support group;
 
    - the Company's MediXpert service, which provides customized on-line medical
      reports from medical specialists; and
 
    - a selection of recommended books and other healthcare products for
      purchase on-line.
 
    The MEDICONSULT.COM Web site has received awards from more than 30
independent organizations under the general categories of content, navigation
and overall design. Among the more recent awards and citations are those from
ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA (one of 76 "Best of Web" sites out of 125,000
reviewed), THE LANCET ("An exceptionally well-designed, easy to navigate site
brimming with health news and patient-oriented information"), and POPULAR
SCIENCE (one of the "50 Best of the Web" for 1998). In January 1999, the
Company's MEDICONSULT.COM Web site was one of 110 Web sites nominated for a
"Webby" by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Science. Management
believes that these awards from independent companies and agencies help to build
awareness of, and visitor traffic to, the MEDICONSULT.COM Web site and provide
third party validation of the perceived thoroughness and quality of the Web site
and its content.
 
    The Company's MediXpert service provides access to more than 45 medical
specialists. For a fee, a visitor can submit a case scenario including
background information and questions to physicians specializing in their medical
condition. The specialist reviews the information and responds with a detailed
report a few days later. The specialist's report is designed to be shared with
the visitor's primary physician, who can examine the report and incorporate it
into the patient's healthcare plan, as appropriate. The report clearly indicates
that it is not a diagnosis or specific medical advice, and advises the visitor
to discuss all material received in the case scenario report with the visitor's
healthcare provider before acting on the information in any way. The information
provided is not intended to constitute the practice of medicine. In order to
ensure security, encryption technology and/or password protection is employed at
every stage. Furthermore, the visitor's name is not made available to the
specialist and a visitor name and password, known only to the visitor who
submitted the information, are required to access the report.
 
    The Company also provides its visitors with the ability to purchase the
following products on-line through its MEDICONSULT.COM Web site:
 
    - MEDI-STORE. The Company operates an on-line store on MEDICONSULT.COM.
      Through this store, visitors can purchase selected medical products,
      vitamins and supplements categorized by medical condition.
 
    - MEDI-BOOKS. Through an agreement with Amazon.com, the Company offers
      visitors the opportunity to purchase healthcare-related books that have
      been reviewed by its medical professionals. This offers the visitor a
      pre-screened and targeted list of recommended books that are relevant to
      their area of interest.
 
                                       5
<PAGE>
    The Company believes that visitor support services are important in order to
attract and retain visitors to the Company's Web sites. The Company provides
visitor support primarily through e-mail-based correspondence. Help and feedback
buttons are prominently displayed throughout the MEDICONSULT.COM Web site, and
the Company's visitor support staff responds to most e-mail queries within 24
hours. In addition, through the Company's support group activities, healthcare
professionals provide free e-mail support for a broad range of issues.
 
    The Company has strict policies and practices to ensure privacy and
confidentiality of personal information posted on MEDICONSULT.COM. The Company
adheres to the Health on the Network (HON) code of conduct (WWW.HON.ORG) and the
Trusted Standards in Electronic Transactions, known as Truste, privacy and
disclosure requirements. The Truste program is intended to maximize the
Company's disclosure to consumers with regard to the collection of personally
identifiable information on Web sites in order to promote the Internet as a safe
and secure place to conduct business, education, communication and entertainment
activities. In accordance with the Company's commitment to Truste, it does not
display or make publicly available any personally identifiable information
without the prior written consent of the individual identified, and limits the
usage of personally identifiable information gathered on the site.
 
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
 
MARKETING AND ADVERTISING PROGRAMS.
 
    The Company designs, develops and implements sophisticated on-line marketing
and advertising programs for pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies.
These programs are intended to educate patients on particular medical
conditions, increase their awareness of treatment options, describe the benefits
of various treatments and generally increase compliance with treatment
protocols. The Company's programs include:
 
    - banner advertisements, visitor polls and surveys, and live events, to
      build brand awareness;
 
    - condition-specific content, to educate the targeted visitor group;
 
    - calls to action and other visitor interactions, such as requests for
      product samples;
 
    - design and development of customized Web sites focused on a particular
      product, treatment or medical condition;
 
    - development of product positioning strategies and initiation of on-line
      program launches; and
 
    - Web site management and support and visitor services.
 
    To date, the Company has marketed its capabilities to large pharmaceutical
companies, and listed below is a sample of programs developed for clients.
 
    NOVARTIS CONSUMER HEALTH. The Company designed, developed and implemented an
    on-line marketing and advertising program for Novartis Consumer Health
    Canada covering its smoking cessation product, Habitrol, which in Canada is
    a non-prescription drug. The program is targeted to Canadian consumers and
    is designed to increase usage of Habitrol among those individuals wishing to
    quit smoking and to improve their overall continuing compliance with the
    protocol for the use of the product. Prior to designing the HABITROL.COM Web
    site, the Company conducted an analysis of its own visitor traffic across
    all of its medical conditions covered on the MEDICONSULT.COM Web site to
    determine which visitors were most interested in quitting smoking. The
    Company then developed, and launched in June 1998, the Habitrol marketing
    and advertising program, which was coordinated with Novartis' ongoing media
    campaign. In addition to the creation of the HABITROL.COM Web site, the
    program includes a number of other initiatives. Visitor traffic is generated
    through the coordination of Habitrol banner advertisements on the Company's
    MEDICONSULT.COM Web site with Novartis' off-line media campaign. Individuals
    committing to the program are offered a number of on-line support
 
                                       6
<PAGE>
    mechanisms by Novartis, including daily e-mail reminders providing guidance
    on physical and emotional expectations for the day, additional relevant
    medical information and on-line "buddies" who had quit, or were themselves
    quitting smoking. In addition, visitors are offered coupons for Habitrol and
    can participate in on-line surveys. The Company has been receiving revenue
    for maintaining and upgrading HABITROL.COM since its launch. The Company is
    currently expanding the Habitrol program to provide French and professional
    healthcare versions of the Web site.
 
    NOVARTIS PHARMA. In October 1998, Novartis Pharma, the pharmaceutical
    division of Novartis, engaged the Company to develop marketing and
    advertising programs for several branded pharmaceutical products, including
    currently approved products and products under clinical development. The
    Company is currently developing these programs.
 
    OTHER. The Company is working with a number of other pharmaceutical and
    consumer health organizations to develop marketing and advertising programs.
    During 1998, the Company completed assessment programs for Bristol Myers
    Squibb, Glaxo Wellcome and Astra Merck.
 
CONTENT LICENSING AND WEB SITE SUPPORT.
 
    The Company also seeks to increase its visitor traffic and generate
additional revenue by licensing its content to, and providing Web site support
for, Web sites established by healthcare organizations, including health
maintenance organizations, hospital chains and pharmacies. Under these
arrangements, the Company designs, develops and maintains individual Web sites
for its clients incorporating the content from the MEDICONSULT.COM Web site. In
addition, with certain clients the Company maintains the right to place
advertisements on these sites, sharing the revenue with the client on a
predetermined basis. Listed below is a sample of some of the Company's content
licensing and Web site support clients.
 
    IBM. In January 1998, the Company entered into a content licensing agreement
    with IBM. Under this agreement, the healthcare division of IBM markets
    MEDICONSULT.COM'S medical content to IBM's clients.
 
    GEOACCESS. In December 1998, the Company entered into a content licensing
    agreement with GeoAccess, a healthcare information services company that
    provides enterprise-wide software for managed care companies, authorizing
    GeoAccess to market the Company's content to its managed care clients.
 
    ONTARIO HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION. In October 1998, the Company entered into an
    agreement with the Ontario Hospital Association, an association of
    approximately 185 not-for-profit hospitals in Canada, to design, develop and
    maintain a Web site template for use by their member hospitals for a monthly
    fee. For each hospital that elects to participate, the Company will create a
    customized home page that is integrated with the basic template. The
    customized entry point allows each hospital to enhance the base Web site
    with information about local services and support. The Company completed the
    template in November 1998, and has recently developed pilot Web sites for
    five of the member hospitals.
 
    OTHER. The Company is licensing its content and providing consulting
    services to pharmaceutical companies and is seeking to expand its client
    base to include other service providers, such as hospital groups, managed
    care companies and retail pharmacies.
 
JOINT VENTURES, STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS AND RELATIONSHIPS
 
JOINT VENTURES.
 
    In February 1999, the Company entered into a memorandum of agreement to form
a 50/50 joint venture with CommonHealth LLP ("CommonHealth") which will focus on
providing pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies with innovative
approaches to marketing their products in comprehensive
 
                                       7
<PAGE>
marketing and advertising campaigns containing both significant Internet
components and traditional media such as, print, television and direct
marketing. The joint venture has the right of first refusal to provide services
for these campaigns using the Company's Internet expertise and CommonHealth's
experience in traditional forms of media. The Company and CommonHealth will each
charge the joint venture for work performed by it at its normal rates. Profits
of the joint venture will be shared equally by the parties, and the losses of
the joint venture will be shared in proportion to each party's billings. In
addition to the joint venture, CommonHealth and the Company, will each continue
to pursue their individual business plans. In connection with the formation of
the joint venture, the parties agreed that a representative of each party may
serve on the board of directors of the other.
 
STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS.
 
    The Company has grown in part through recent strategic acquisitions and
agreements. The Company plans to continue this strategy in order to increase
visitor traffic, increase revenue, gain access to human resources, and increase
the breadth and depth of the medical content provided on its Web sites.
Recently, the Company acquired or entered into Web site management or
sponsorship agreements with respect to three Web sites, each providing it with
high quality content in a particular niche:
 
    - PHARMLNFO.COM, a leading Web site providing information on pharmaceutical
      products and clinical trials for pharmacists, physicians and consumers.
      The Company acquired PHARMLNFO.COM in December 1998, in exchange for
      100,000 shares of common stock.
 
    - CYBERDIET.COM, a Web site providing tailored nutritional information and
      programs. In February 1999, the Company entered into an agreement
      outlining the principal terms of an exclusive management arrangement with
      CyberDiet Inc. ("CyberDiet") related to CYBERDIET.COM and granting to the
      Company the sole right to place advertisements on the Web site, to link
      traffic, and manage the content on the Web site. The Company has an option
      to purchase CyberDiet and its Web site which we expect to exercise, and
      CyberDiet has under certain circumstances the right to cause the Company
      to purchase it, in exchange for 400,000 shares of common stock.
 
    - INCIID.ORG, a Web site providing information on infertility. In February
      1999, the Company entered into an exclusive sponsorship agreement with the
      InterNational Counsel of Infertility Information Dissemination, a
      not-for-profit organization, relating to INCIID.ORG and granting to the
      Company the sole right to place advertisements on the Web site, to link
      traffic, and manage the content on the Web site.
 
STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS.
 
    The Company has entered into strategic alliances with a number of patient
associations, including the Arthritis Foundation, Leukemia Society of America,
the National Stroke Association and the National Mental Health Association.
These alliances allow the Company to:
 
    - gain access to condition-specific medical information;
 
    - gain access to condition-specific visitor traffic;
 
    - increase visibility of the Company on the Internet; and
 
    - increase resources available to the Company regarding particular medical
      conditions.
 
MARKETING, SALES AND PROGRAM DESIGN
 
    As of January 1, 1999, the Company had a marketing, sales and program design
group of 14 professionals who consult regularly with clients and their
advertising agencies on how the Company can best apply its resources to meet
their DTC marketing, advertising and content licensing needs. The Company
generally seeks to hire individuals with significant experience in program
design, advertising
 
                                       8
<PAGE>
sales and pre-existing relationships with advertisers in a variety of media. The
Company's marketing, sales and program design professionals have an average of
12 years of related experience.
 
INFRASTRUCTURE, OPERATIONS AND TECHNOLOGY
 
    The Company's operating infrastructure has been designed and implemented to
support the reliable and swift delivery of hundreds of thousands of page views a
day. The design of the Company's Web site allows for growth into millions of
page views per day. Web pages are generated and delivered, in response to
visitors' requests by any one of six Web servers. Key attributes of this
infrastructure include scalability, performance and service availability.
 
    The Company has deployed a standard production and development server
environment utilizing standard software solutions running on generally available
server hardware platforms. The Company is currently transitioning from a core
production environment running on SGI hardware and Unix platform hosted at
TVisions of Cambridge, Massachusetts to an IBM Lotus Domino software environment
to be located in the United States, which the Company may manage from Toronto,
Canada. The Company's Web-based software systems use standard, off-the-shelf
software components. The Company's strategy is to license and integrate
"best-of-breed" commercially available technology from industry leaders such as
IBM, Sun Microsystems and Microsoft whenever possible. The Company believes this
architecture will allow it to increase rapidly the scale of its systems in a
cost-effective manner.
 
    A number of other applications, such as client-developed application sites,
demonstration facilities for client projects and the Company's Intranet site,
are hosted at Internoded of Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Company's MediStore
electronic commerce applications are hosted at Entrevision, Inc. of Toronto,
Canada. The Company's production servers are currently hosted at Exodus in
Waltham, Massachusetts.
 
    The Company's production data is copied to backup tapes each night and
stored at a third party, off-site storage facility. The Company is in the
process of developing a comprehensive disaster recovery plan to respond to
system failures. The Company keeps all of its production servers behind
firewalls for security purposes and does not allow outside access at the
operating systems level, except via special secure channels. Strict password
management and physical security measures are followed.
 
COMPETITION
 
    There are many companies that provide Internet and non-Internet based
marketing and advertising services to the healthcare industry. All of these
companies compete with the Company for advertisers, and Internet healthcare
companies also compete with us for visitor traffic. Management expects
competition to continue to increase as there are no substantial barriers to
entry in the Company's market. Increased competition could result in reductions
in the fees the Company receives for its marketing and advertising services,
lower margins, loss of clients, reduced visitor traffic to its Web sites, or
loss of market share. Any of these occurrences could materially and adversely
affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
Competition is also likely to increase significantly, not only as new entities
enter the market, but also as current competitors expand their services. The
Company's principal competitors include:
 
    - advertising agencies and consulting firms, such as Young & Rubicam and
      Agency.com, that develop marketing and advertising programs for
      pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies;
 
    - Web sites that deliver consumer healthcare information, either as their
      sole focus or as part of a more broadly-based site, such as Health Oasis,
      InteliHealth, iVillage, OnHealth, Thrive Online and WebMD;
 
    - general purpose consumer online service providers, such as America Online
      and Microsoft Network;
 
                                       9
<PAGE>
    - Web site development firms, such as USWeb/CKS; and
 
    - publishers and distributors of television, radio and print, such as CBS,
      Disney, NBC and Time Warner.
 
    The Company's ability to compete depends on a number of factors, many of
which are outside of its control. These factors include quality of content, ease
of use, timing and market acceptance of new and enhanced services, and level of
sales and marketing efforts.
 
    Many of the Company's existing competitors, as well as a number of potential
new competitors, have longer operating histories, greater name recognition,
existing relationships with pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies and
significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the
Company does. This may allow them to devote greater resources than the Company
to the development and promotion of their services. These competitors may also
engage in more extensive development efforts, undertake more far-reaching
marketing campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing policies and make more
attractive offers to existing and potential employees, advertisers and alliance
partners. The Company's competitors may develop services that are equal or
superior to those provided by the Company or that achieve greater market
acceptance and brand recognition than the Company achieves. In addition, current
and potential competitors have established or may establish cooperative
relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase their ability
to address the needs of advertisers. It is possible that new competitors may
emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. The Company may not be able
to compete successfully or competitive pressures may have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
If advertisers perceive the Internet generally or the Company's Web sites to be
a relatively limited or ineffective advertising medium, advertisers may be
reluctant to devote a significant portion of their advertising budget to
Internet advertising or to advertise on the Company's Web sites.
 
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AND DOMAIN NAMES
 
    The Company protects its intellectual property through a combination of
trademark and copyright law, trade secret protection and confidentiality with
its employees, customers, independent contractors and strategic partners. The
Company pursues the registration of its domain names, trademarks and service
marks in the United States, and has obtained trademark registration in the
United States of "MEDICONSULT.COM" and assert various other trademarks and
servicemarks. Effective trademark, service mark, copyright and trade secret
protection may not be available in every country in which the Company's services
and products are made available on-line. The Company obtains a majority of its
content from the public domain. In addition, it creates some of its own content
and obtains rights to use the balance of its content from third parties. It is
possible that the Company could become subject to infringement actions based
upon the content obtained from these third parties. In addition, others may use
this content and the Company may be subject to claims from its licensors. The
Company currently has no patents or patents pending and does not anticipate that
patents will become significant part of its intellectual property in the future.
The Company seeks to enter into confidentiality agreements with its employees
and independent consultants and has instituted procedures to control access to
and distribution of its technology, documentation and other proprietary
information and the proprietary information of others from whom it licenses
content. The steps the Company takes to protect its proprietary rights may not
be adequate and third parties may infringe or misappropriate the Company's
copyrights, trademarks, service marks and similar proprietary rights. In
addition, other parties may assert claims of infringement of intellectual
property or alter proprietary rights against the Company. The legal status of
intellectual property on the Internet is currently subject to various
uncertainties.

HUMAN RESOURCES
 
    As of January 31, 1999, the Company employed 35 full-time employees, of whom
14 were in marketing, sales and program design, 12 were in product and content
development, four were in administration and corporate services, and five were
in operations and support. In addition, there were 10 part-time employees. As
the Company continues to grow and introduce more products, Management expects to
hire more personnel. Competition for personnel is intense and the Company may
not be able to retain its senior management or other key personnel in the
future. None of the Company's current employees is represented by a labor union
or is the subject of a collective bargaining agreement. The Company believes
that its relations with employees is good.
 
GOVERNMENT REGULATION AND LEGAL UNCERTAINTIES
 
    GENERAL.  There is an increasing number of laws and regulations pertaining
to the Internet. In addition, a number of legislative and regulatory proposals
are under consideration by federal, state, local and foreign governments and
agencies. Laws or regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet
relating to liability for information retrieved from or transmitted over the
Internet, online content regulation, visitor privacy, taxation and quality of
products and services. Moreover, the applicability to the Internet of existing
laws governing issues such as intellectual property ownership and infringement,
copyright, trademark, trade secret, obscenity, libel, employment and personal
privacy is uncertain and developing. Any new legislation or regulation, or the
application or interpretation of existing laws may have an adverse effect on the
Company's business. In addition to Internet regulation, the Company's Web sites
may be subject to numerous state and federal laws that govern the delivery of
healthcare services and goods in the United States. These laws range from laws
prohibiting the offer, payment or receipt of renumeration to induce referrals to
entities providing healthcare services and goods to licensure requirements as
well as special protection for healthcare data. These laws are complicated and
are under constant revision and interpretation. These laws and their active
enforcement, particularly in the area of healthcare fraud, affects the way all
healthcare providers structure their business relationships and deliver
healthcare services and goods. New developments in this area could affect the
structure and operation of the Company's business. In the event some state or
federal regulatory agency determined that the Company's relationship with one or
more or its advertisers that deliver healthcare services or goods violate any
such laws, then the Company could be subjected to fines and other costs and
could be required to revise or terminate that portion of its business.
 
    LIABILITY FOR INFORMATION RETRIEVED FROM THE COMPANY'S WEB SITES AND FROM
THE INTERNET.  Content may be accessed on the Company's Web sites and this
content may be downloaded by visitors and subsequently transmitted to others
over the Internet. This could result in claims against the Company based on a
variety of theories, including defamation, practicing medicine without a
license, malpractice, obscenity, negligence, copyright or trademark infringement
or other theories based on the nature, publication and distribution of this
content. Some of these types of claims have been brought, sometimes
successfully, against providers of Internet services in the past. The Company
could also be exposed to liability with respect to third-party content that may
be posted by visitors in chat rooms or bulletin boards offered on its Web sites.
It is also possible that if any information, including information deemed to
constitute professional medical advice provided by a specialist on MediXpert
contains errors or false or misleading information, third parties could make
claims against the Company for losses incurred in reliance on such information.
In addition, the Company may be subject to claims alleging that, by directly or
indirectly providing links to other Web sites, it is liable for copyright or
trademark infringement or the wrongful actions of third parties through their
respective Web sites. The Communications Decency Act of 1996 provides that,
under certain circumstances, a provider of Internet services shall not be
treated as a publisher or speaker of any information provided by a third-party
content provider. This safe harbor has been interpreted to exempt certain
activities of providers of Internet services. The Company's activities may
prevent it from being able to take advantage of this safe harbor provision.
While the Company
 
                                       11
<PAGE>
attempts to reduce its exposure to such potential liability through, among other
things, visitor policies and disclaimers, the enforceability and effectiveness
of such measures are uncertain. Any claims brought against the Company in this
respect may have a material and adverse effect on the Company's business.
 
    ON-LINE CONTENT REGULATIONS.  While the Company does not believe the content
on its Web sites is obscene or indecent, its Web sites contain healthcare
content which is explicit in nature and is intended for a mature audience.
Several federal and state statutes prohibit the transmission of certain types of
indecent, obscene or offensive content over the Internet to certain persons. The
enforcement of these statutes and initiatives, and any future enforcement
activities, statutes and initiatives, may result in limitations on the type of
content and advertisements available on the Company's Web sites. Legislation
regulating online content could dampen the growth in use of the Internet
generally and decrease the acceptance of the Internet as an advertising and
e-commerce medium, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition. The Company adheres to
the Health on the Network code of conduct which establishes guidelines for
health information on the Internet.
 
    PRIVACY CONCERNS.  The Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") is considering
adopting regulations regarding the collection and use of personal identifying
information obtained from individuals when accessing Web sites, with particular
emphasis on access by minors. Such regulations may include requirements that
companies establish certain procedures to, among other things: (1) give adequate
notice to consumers regarding information collection and disclosure practices,
(2) provide consumers with the ability to have personal identifiable information
deleted from a company's database, (3) provide consumers with access to their
personal information and with the ability to rectify inaccurate information, (4)
clearly identify affiliations or a lack thereof with third parties that may
collect information or sponsor activities on a company's Web site and (5) obtain
express parental consent prior to collecting and using personal identifying
information obtained from children under 13 years of age. Such regulation may
also include enforcement and redress provisions. While the Company has
implemented or intends to implement programs designed to enhance the protection
of the privacy of its visitors, including children, there can be no assurance
that such programs will conform with any regulations adopted by the FTC. The
FTC's regulatory and enforcement efforts may adversely affect the ability to
collect demographic and personal information from visitors, which could have an
adverse effect on the Company's ability to provide highly targeted opportunities
for advertisers and e-commerce marketers.
 
    It is also possible that "cookies" (information keyed to a specific server,
file pathway or directory location that is stored on a visitor's hard drive,
possibly without the visitor's knowledge) used to track demographic information
and to target advertising may become subject to laws limiting or prohibiting
their use. A number of Internet commentators, advocates and governmental bodies
in the United States and other countries have urged the passage of laws limiting
or abolishing the use of cookies. Limitations on or elimination of the Company's
use of cookies could limit the effectiveness of the its targeting of
advertisements, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
    The European Union ("EU") has adopted a directive that imposes restrictions
on the collection and use of personal data. Under the Directive, EU citizens are
guaranteed certain rights, including the right of access to their data, the
right to know where the data originated, the right to have inaccurate data
rectified, the right to recourse in the event of unlawful processing and the
right to withhold permission to use their data for direct marketing. The
directive could, among other things, affect U.S. companies that collect
information over the Internet from individuals in EU member countries, and may
impose restrictions that are more stringent than current Internet privacy
standard in the United States. In particular, companies with offices located in
EU countries will not be allowed to send personal information to countries that
do not maintain adequate standards of privacy. The directive does not, however,
define what standards of privacy are adequate. As a result, there can be no
assurance that the directive will not adversely affect the activities of
entities such as the Company which engage in data collection from visitors in EU
member countries.
 
                                       12
<PAGE>
    DOMAIN NAMES.  Domain names are Internet "addresses." The current system for
registering, allocating and managing domain names has been the subject of
litigation, including trademark litigation, and of proposed regulatory reform.
The Company has registered as its URL, the domain name "MEDICONSULT.COM."
Although the Company has registered "MEDICONSULT.COM" as a trademark, third
parties may bring claims for infringement against the Company for the use of
this trademark. There can be no assurance that the Company's domain names will
not lose their value, or that the Company will not have to obtain entirely new
domain names in addition to or in lieu of its current domain names if reform
efforts result in a restructuring of the current system.
 
    JURISDICTIONS.  Due to the global nature of the Internet, it is possible
that, although transmissions by the Company over the Internet originate
primarily in the United States, the governments of other states and foreign
countries might attempt to regulate such transmissions or prosecute the Company
for violations of their laws. These laws may be modified, or new laws enacted,
in the future. Any of the foregoing developments could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, as the Company's service is available over the Internet in multiple
states and foreign countries, these jurisdictions may claim that the Company is
required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in each state or
foreign country. The Company has not qualified to do business as a foreign
corporation in any jurisdiction. This failure by the Company to qualify as a
foreign corporation in a jurisdiction where it is required to do so could
subject it to taxes and penalties and could result in its inability to enforce
contracts in such jurisdictions. Any new legislation or regulation, the
application of laws and regulations from jurisdictions whose laws do not
currently apply to the Company's business, or the application of existing laws
and regulations to the Internet and other online services could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations.
 
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.
 
    To date, the Company has operated without corporate office space for its
employees. The Company manages its operations through an internal computer
network that contains substantially all of its records, plans, projects in
process and other information and employees communicate principally via e-mail,
telephone and face-to-face meetings. The Company has no leases for office space,
as all employees are geographically disperse and work out of home offices or
independent or client offices. The Company is headquartered in Hamilton,
Bermuda, occupying space in the office of Robert A. Jennings, its Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer, at no cost to it. The Company manages its operations to
a large extent through telephonic, electronic and other forms of communication.
The Company currently anticipates that it will require office space to
accommodate growth and meet increasing client needs. In this regard, it is
contemplating opening an office in Parsippany, New Jersey, in conjunction with
the CommonHealth joint venture, and is evaluating the possibility of
establishing an office in Toronto, Canada.
 
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
 
    There are no pending legal proceedings in which the Company is a party, and
the Company is not aware of any threatened legal proceedings involving it.
 
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
 
    On October 2, 1998, the Company's majority stockholder, The Mediconsult
Trust, an entity controlled by Robert A. Jennings, approved adoption of an
amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to change existing
references from "$10.00 Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock" to references to
"Preferred Stock" and to provide for a cumulative dividend on the Company's
junior preferred stock and to permit conversion of the Company's junior
preferred stock into common stock.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
  OF OPERATIONS.
 
OVERVIEW
 
    Mediconsult is a leading provider of patient-oriented healthcare information
and services on the World Wide Web. The Company's Web sites provide a trusted
source of comprehensive and easy to understand medical information and are
designed to empower consumers through increased education related to medical
conditions and treatment alternatives. The Company's Web sites also provide a
destination on the Internet where visitors can interact with others in a
community environment. The Company facilitates this environment through a
well-organized, easy to navigate format and an array of complementary services,
including moderated on-line support groups and discussion forums. By fostering
 
                                       14
<PAGE>
communities centered around over 60 prevalent medical conditions and health
issues, management believes the Company creates significant opportunities for
pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies to reach a highly targeted
consumer audience using Internet-based marketing and advertising programs.
 
BACKGROUND
 
    For the period from the inception of the Company's operations in April 1996
through January 1997, the Company's operating activities related primarily to
the initial development of the MEDICONSULT.COM Web site and operating
infrastructure, and also the recruitment of employees. Since the formal launch
of MEDICONSULT.COM in 1997, the Company has focused on developing content,
organizing content in an easy to navigate format, and improving the
functionality of MEDICONSULT.COM. The Company continues to refine its strategy
of creating targeted on-line marketing and advertising programs for large
pharmaceutical and other healthcare organizations, and is developing and
implementing these types of programs for its clients. The Company structures its
programs to provide its advertisers with a measurable return on investment by
tracking the level of interest and interactive responses of visitors. The
Company's programs utilize a broad range of on-line strategies and resources to
deliver a message consistent with the advertisers' global marketing strategy.
 
REVENUE SOURCES
 
    The Company's main source of revenue is through client services related to
the development and support of on-line marketing and advertising programs for
pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies. These services typically include
the design, development and management of customized Web sites relating to a
particular pharmaceutical or other health-related product. Client services also
include marketing research, focus group testing and on-line testing of visitors'
preferences. Revenue from client services is recognized over the period that the
services are performed. Revenue from support services, principally the
management of Web sites that the Company develops for its clients, is recognized
ratably over the management periods, generally on a monthly basis. Payments
received from clients prior to the performance of client services are recorded
as unearned revenue.
 
    The Company also provides advertising services involving the sale of
advertising space on the Web sites it owns, manages or sponsors. These services
can be provided separately or as part of a more comprehensive suite of client
services. Advertising services include banner advertisements, polls, surveys,
registration programs, coupons and other interactive forms of advertising.
Revenue from advertising sales is recognized ratably over the period in which
the advertisement is displayed, if no significant obligations remain. In certain
cases, advertising revenue from the sale of advertising space is related to the
delivery of impressions or click-throughs from pages viewed by visitors to the
Company's Web sites. In these cases, the Company may guarantee a minimum number
of impressions or click-throughs by visitors over a specific period of time. To
the extent that revenue is related to the number of impressions or
click-throughs, the Company defers recognition of this revenue until the
required impressions or click-throughs are achieved. Payments received from
advertisers prior to displaying their advertisements are recorded as deferred
revenue. The Company does not engage in barter transactions with respect to its
advertising services.
 
    The Company also derives revenue form licensing its MEDICONSULT.COMcontent
and providing Web site support to healthcare and other organizations. These
organizations make the Company's content available to visitors to their Web
sites or to Web sites of their clients. Revenue from content licensing is
recognized over the period of the license. In certain cases, the Company designs
and develops these Web sites. The portion of licensing revenue related to
up-front customized design work is recognized over the period that the work is
performed. In certain cases, the Company derives additional revenue from the
management of the Web site or its content. Revenue from management services is
recognized ratably over the period the services are performed, generally on a
monthly basis. The Company also may retain the right to place advertising on a
Web site that hosts its content.

    Although the Company has certain electronic commerce alliances with
merchants of healthcare-oriented books and products, revenue from these
revenue-sharing arrangements has not been material. Revenue from the Company's
share of the proceeds from its electronic commerce partners' sales is recognized
by the Company upon notification from its commerce partners of sales
attributable to the Company's Web sites.
 
MARKETING AND SALES INITIATIVES
 
    In late 1997, the Company initiated its first significant marketing and
advertising program. The Company was engaged by Novartis Consumer Health Canada
to develop a comprehensive on-line smoking cessation program for its Habitrol
brand, focused on Canadian consumers. The Company developed the Web site for
this program during early 1998, for which it received payment as services were
performed. The Company received revenue for maintaining and upgrading this
program (beginning with its launch in June 1998), and receives monthly
advertising revenue for referring visitor traffic to the Habitrol Web site. The
Company is currently expanding the Habitrol program to provide French and
professional healthcare versions of the Web site.
 
    The Company has also generated revenue from developing programs for a number
of branded pharmaceutical products for Novartis Pharma, the worldwide
pharmaceutical division of Novartis. The Company is developing the Web sites for
these programs and receiving payment as the services are performed. In 1998,
revenue from Novartis represented $0.7 million or 65% of the Company's total
revenue. The Company has also completed assessment programs for Bristol Myers
Squibb, Glaxo Wellcome and Astra Merck. The loss of Novartis as a customer or
any changes to the existing relationship that are less favorable to the Company,
or any significant reduction in traffic on or through the Novartis Web sites
that the Company manages, will materially and adversely affect the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
    To date, the Company's revenue has been generated primarily by its internal
sales organization and, to a lesser extent, by third party advertising
representatives. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had an internal marketing,
sales and program design organization of 14 professionals. The Company believes
that it needs to significantly increase the size of its internal marketing and
sales organization to execute successfully its growth strategy and, accordingly,
the Company intends to hire additional marketing and sales professionals in
1999.
 
    To complement its direct sales force, in February 1999, the entered into a
memorandum of agreement outlining the principal terms of a 50/50 joint venture
with CommonHealth LLP, the leading healthcare advertising firm worldwide.
CommonHealth is an affiliate of Ogilvy & Mather and J. Walter Thompson. The
joint venture is being formed to offer innovative multimedia solutions to
pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies, based on the Company's Internet
expertise and CommonHealth's experience in traditional media. It is currently
contemplated that each party will perform services on behalf of the joint
venture, and will each charge the joint venture for work performed by it at its
normal rates. The joint venture may also recruit its own employees, some of whom
may come from Mediconsult and some of whom may come from CommonHealth. Profits
of the joint venture will be shared equally by the parties, and losses of the
joint venture will be shared in proportion to each party's billings to the joint
venture.
 
    In order to enhance its content licensing initiatives and generate
additional revenue, the Company has entered into marketing alliances with a
number of companies and organizations. These include the healthcare division of
IBM, GeoAccess, a software development company focused on the managed care
sector, and the Ontario Hospital Association, an association of approximately
185 not-for-profit hospitals.

VISITOR TRAFFIC
 
    To improve the depth and breadth of the Company's medical content and to
increase visitor traffic, the Company has recently completed strategic
initiatives to purchase, mange or sponsor the following Web sites:
 
    - PHARMINFO.COM, a leading Web site providing information on pharmaceutical
      products and clinical trials for pharmacists, physicians and consumers.
      The Company acquired PHARMINFO.COM in December 1998, in exchange for
      100,000 shares of its common stock. The fair value of these shares of
      common stock was $0.8 million, which was capitalized and will be amortized
      over three years.
 
    - CYBERDIET.COM, a Web site providing tailored nutritional information and
      programs. In February 1999, the Company entered into a memorandum of
      agreement outlining the principal terms of an exclusive management
      arrangement with CyberDiet Inc., the owner of CYBERDIET.COM, granting to
      Mediconsult the sole right to place advertisements on the Web site, to
      link traffic, and to manage the content on the Web site. The Company has
      an option to purchase CyberDiet Inc., and this company has under certain
      circumstances the right to cause the Company to purchase it, in exchange
      for 400,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company expects to
      exercise this option.
 
    - INCID.ORG, a Web site providing information on infertility. In February
      1999, the Company entered into an exclusive sponsorship agreement with the
      InterNational Counsel of Infertility Information Dissemination, a
      not-for-profit organization, relating to INCID.ORG and granting to
      Mediconsult the sole right to place advertisements on the Web site, to
      link traffic, and to manage the content on the Web site. In connection
      with this agreement, the Company has committed to pay INCID $0.5 million
      per year beginning in 1999, for three years in equal quarterly
      installments, in cash or common stock as the Company determines with
      respect to each quarter.
 
    Management believes that the Company's Web sites collectively represent one
of the most highly trafficked consumer healthcare information sites on the
Internet. In January 1999 (on a pro forma basis as if acquired, managed or
sponsored on the first day of the month), the Company's owned, managed and
sponsored Web sites had more than 1.3 million visitors viewing over 9.2 million
pages of information.
 
CORPORATE
 
    Mediconsult was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of
Colorado in October 1989. In April 1996, the Company purchased Mediconsult.com
Limited, a Bermuda corporation ("MCL"), through a merger in which MCL became a
wholly-owned subsidiary. In December 1996, the Company consummated a
reincorporation merger pursuant to which it became a Delaware corporation.
Mediconsult conducts its business primarily through MCL, its Bermudian
subsidiary. In addition to MCL, Mediconsult has established subsidiaries in the
United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. The Company's operations are
conducted by MCL, which has obtained an exemption from all Bermudian income
taxes until the year 2016. MCL has, however, entered into service agreements
with other subsidiaries of Mediconsult for their employees to provide services
to MCL. These subsidiaries will be subject to income taxes in their
jurisdictions.
 
STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
 
    Stock options granted to consultants and employees are expensed over their
vesting period, based on their fair value at the date of grant, under Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED
COMPENSATION." As more fully described below in "Results of Operations," the
Company has recorded compensation expense in connection with the vesting of
stock options during the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998, as well as
deferred compensation expense for the value of options granted that were not
vested as of such dates. The Company currently expects to amortize
 
                                       17
<PAGE>
$0.9 million in 1999 and $27,693 in 2000 as deferred compensation expense in
respect of options outstanding at December 31, 1998. In addition, pursuant to an
agreement with Arnhold and S. Bleichroeder, Inc. to provide the Company with
investment advisory services, the Company has issued to this firm warrants to
purchase an aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price
of $1.22 per share, which was the closing price of the Company's common stock on
the contract date. Of this amount, warrants for 200,000 shares of Common Stock
were delivered upon the filing of a prospectus for secondary public offering in
February 1999 and warrants for 200,000 shares of Common Stock are deliverable in
2000, if certain conditions are met. Delivery of the warrants will result in the
recognition of an expense in the statement of operation equal to the fair market
value of the warrants on the date of delivery.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
    REVENUE.  Revenue consists of fees received for the design, development and
implementation of online marketing and advertising programs, including Web site
development and implementation, advertising services, licensing the Company's
content and Web site support. The Company did not have any revenue for the
period from April 23, 1996 (the initial launch of MEDICONSULT.COM) to December
31, 1996. Revenue was $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1997 and $1.0
million for the year ended December 31, 1998. The period-to-period growth in
revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of clients and
the number of marketing and advertising programs developed and implemented for
those clients.
 
    PRODUCT AND CONTENT DEVELOPMENT.  Product and content development costs
include expenses incurred by the Company to develop, enhance, manage, monitor
and operate its Web sites. These costs have consisted primarily of salaries and
fees paid to employees and consultants to develop and maintain the software and
information contained on the MEDICONSULT.COM Web site. For the period ended
December 31, 1996, these costs consisted primarily of third party software
development expenses, which were deferred and amortized over the years ended
December 31, 1997 and 1998. For the year ended December 31, 1997, these costs
were $0.8 million and for the year ended December 31, 1998, these costs were
$1.3 million. For 1997 and 1998, these costs related primarily to the
development of healthcare content.
 
    MARKETING, SALES AND CLIENT SERVICES.  Marketing, sales and client services
costs include expenses incurred by the Company to obtain and maintain client
relationships. These costs included salaries and fees paid to employees and
consultants, and programming costs. In 1996, the marketing, sales and client
services costs were $0.4 million. In 1997, the Company began a process of
developing prototype marketing and advertising programs, and in the fourth
quarter of 1997 began the development of its first client marketing program. For
the year ended December 31, 1997, marketing, sales and client services costs
were $1.1 million. For the year ended December 31, 1998, these costs were $1.8
million, consisting primarily of costs associated with the development and
implementation of specific client marketing programs and of new prototype
marketing and advertising programs.
 
    GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  General and administrative expenses
consist primarily of salaries and related costs for general corporate functions,
including finance, accounting and legal expenses, and fees for other
professional services. For the year ended December 31, 1996, general and
administrative expenses were $0.4 million. These expenses were $0.8 million for
the year ended December 31, 1997, and $1.0 million for the year ended December
31, 1998. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily
attributable to increased salaries and related expenses associated with hiring
additional personnel to support the growth of the Company's operations.
 
    FAIR VALUE OF OPTIONS GRANTED TO EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS.  The Company has
recorded compensation expense in connection with the vesting of employee stock
options of $40,235 during the year ended December 31, 1997, and $0.3 million
during the year ended December 31, 1998. In addition, for the year ended
December 31, 1998, the Company recorded compensation expense of $1.4 million for
a stock option
 
                                       18
<PAGE>
granted to a consultant. Compensation expense represents the amortization of
deferred compensation which is measured based on the fair value of the options
granted. These amounts are amortized over the vesting period of the applicable
options. Compensation expense in respect of the options granted to a consultant
is related to an option for 2,000,000 shares of common stock granted pursuant to
a Strategic Consulting Interim Agreement with Treacy & Co., LLC, a company
controlled by Michael Treacy, a director of the Company, as payment for
marketing consulting services. These services included marketing, sales and
client services advice, strategic planning and seconding Mr. Swanson to act in
the capacity of Vice President, Sales. The Company has recorded deferred
compensation for the value of the options granted that are not yet vested of
$0.1 million as of December 31, 1997 and $0.9 million as of December 31, 1998.
 
QUARTERLY RESULTS OF OPERATIONS DATA
 
    The following table sets forth certain unaudited quarterly consolidated
statement of operations data for each of the eight quarters ended December 31,
1998. In the opinion of management, this data has been prepared substantially on
same basis as the audited financial statements appearing elsewhere in this
report and includes all necessary adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments necessary for fair presentation of this data. The
quarterly data should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
the notes to these statements appearing elsewhere in this report. The results of
operations for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations for any future period.
 
    The Company has limited operating history upon which to evaluate its
business and predict revenue and planned operating expenses. The Company's
quarterly operating results may vary significantly in the foreseeable future due
to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of the Company's control. The
timing of the Company's advertising sales is one of the most significant factors
affecting quarterly results. The time between the date of initial contact with a
potential advertiser and the execution of a contract with the advertiser
typically ranges from six weeks for smaller agreements nine months for larger
agreements. These contracts are also subject to delays over which the Company
has little or no control, including customers budgetary constraints, their
internal acceptance reviews whether or when regulatory approval of their
products is given by the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") or other
regulatory authority, the possibility of cancellation or delay of projects by
advertisers and any post-approval actions taken by the FDA or other regulatory
authority, including product recalls. During the selling process, the Company
may expend substantial funds and management resources and yet not obtain
adequate advertising revenue. Once a contract is executed, a significant portion
of the Company's revenue is derived from customized Web site development and
implementation projects, rather than from recurring fees. As a result, the
Company cannot predict with certainty when it will perform the work necessary to
receive payment for these projects. In addition, traffic levels on Web sites
have typically fluctuated during the summer, and
 
                                       19
<PAGE>
during year-end and holiday periods, and the Company could experience a decrease
in visitor traffic to its Web sites during these periods.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    Since inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily through
the private placement of equity securities and advances from its principal
stockholder. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had $0.1 million in cash and
cash equivalents. In February 1999, the Company received $3.2 million in
proceeds from a private placement of equity securities to certain unrelated
investors.
 
    The Company has incurred substantial costs to design, develop and implement
Internet-based marketing and advertising programs for its clients, to build
brand awareness and to grow its business. As a result, the Company has incurred
operating losses and negative cash flows from operations in each quarter since
commencing operations. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had an accumulated
deficit of $8.4 million. These losses have been funded primarily through
advances by its majority stockholder, an entity controlled by Robert A.
Jennings, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. These advances
aggregated $4.8 million as of December 31, 1998. Of this amount, $4.3 million is
evidenced by junior preferred stock of the Company. The balance constitutes an
interest free advance of $0.5 million repayable upon demand.
 
    To date, the Company has experienced negative cash flows from operating
activities. For the period ended December 31, 1996, net cash used in operating
activities was $1.0 million. For the year ended December 31, 1997, net cash used
in operating activities was $2.5 million. For the year ended December 31, 1998,
net cash used in operating activities was $2.7 million. Net cash used in
operating activities for these periods was primarily attributable to net losses
during these periods. Net cash used reflected several factors, including (1)
increased operating expenses as the Company's business volume increased; (2) a
higher level of accounts receivable due to growth of marketing and advertising
program revenue; and (3) increases in accounts payable, accrued expenses and
deferred revenues, which partially offset the increases. For the year ended
December 31, 1998, the increase in net cash used in operating activities was
primarily attributable to a net operating loss of $4.9 million. The net loss for
1998 was offset by certain non-cash items of $1.7 million in the aggregate. This
amount was comprised of deferred compensation
 
                                       20
<PAGE>
expense of $1.6 million related stock options granted to consultants and
employees, depreciation of $0.2 million and the value of services received in
exchange for common stock of $0.1 million.
 
    For the period ended December 31, 1996, net cash used in investing
activities was $0.2 million. For the year ended December 31, 1997, net cash used
in investing activities was $0.1 million. For the year ended December 31, 1998,
net cash used in investing activities was $30,225. All net cash used in
investing activities related to capital expenditures, primarily the acquisition
of equipment.
 
    For the period ended December 31, 1996, net cash provided by financing
activities was $1.6 million. For the year ended December 31, 1997, net cash
provided by financing activities was $2.6 million. For the year ended December
31, 1998, net cash provided by financing activities was $2.4 million. Net cash
proceeds from financing activities in 1996 was primarily attributable to the
issuance of common stock and to a lesser extent from unsecured advances from the
Company's majority stockholder. Net cash proceeds from financing activities in
1997 and 1998 was primarily attributable to net proceeds received from unsecured
advances from the majority stockholder in the aggregate amount of $2.6 million
in 1997 and $2.2 million in 1998. By September 30, 1998, $4.3 million of the
cash advances from the majority stockholder made prior to that date had been
converted into junior preferred stock.
 
    As of December 31, 1998, the Company had no principal capital commitments
outstanding. The Company has spent $0.4 million on capital expenditures since
inception. It is estimated that the Company's capital expenditures will be $0.7
million for 1999, principally for improvements to its technical infrastructure,
including the transfer of its main production and development equipment
operations from a third party to the Company's own facility.
 
    In connection with the Company's planned 50/50 joint venture with
CommonHealth, it expects to advance approximately $0.3 million to the joint
venture as its share of the venture's initial capitalization. Under the
Company's agreement with CommonHealth, the Company may borrow this amount from
CommonHealth. If the Company does borrow this amount, it must repay it from 25%
of its half of the net profits of the joint venture, if any, and, in any event
within three years from the formation of the joint venture or sooner if the
joint venture is terminated.
 
    On February 26, 1999, the Company sold in a private placement an aggregate
of 506,329 shares of newly designated senior preferred stock and warrants
exercisable for five years to purchase 224,000 shares of such senior preferred
stock to Nazem & Company IV, L.P., Transatlantic Venture Fund C.V. (a joint
venture of Nazem & Company and Banque Nationale de Paris) and other individual
investors, for an aggregate of $3.2 million. The purchase price was, and the
conversion price of the senior preferred stock and exercise price of the
warrants is, $6.32 per share, an amount equal to 85% of the average bid and ask
price of the shares of Common Stock on the OTC Bulletin Board for the relevant
30-day period preceding the closing. The shares of senior preferred stock are
convertible at any time at the option of the holder into an equal number of
shares of common stock, subject to adjustment, and will be automatically
converted into an equal number of shares of common stock upon the closing of
this offering. The senior preferred stock has voting rights on an as-converted
basis. In connection with such private placement, the Company agreed to provide
the holders of senior preferred stock or common stock issuable upon the
conversion of senior preferred stock demand and piggy back registration rights,
the right to tag-along with founders of the Company in certain sales of their
shares, and the right to nominate a member of the board of directors of the
Company so long as they maintain at least 50% of their original share position.
If the Company offers its common stock to the public at a price below $6.32 per
share, the conversion price of the senior preferred stock and the exercise price
of the warrants will be lowered to a price equal to 85% of the price of the
public in such offering. In connection with this investment, and for as long as
the investors hold at least 50% of their original shares position, the Company
agreed not to effect any material change in the direction of its business unless
approved by at least two-thirds of the board of directors and then only after
consultation with the investors.
 
                                       21

    In March 1999, the Company entered into a source code license agreement with
TVisions, relating to the proprietary software that the Company uses to operate
MEDICONSULT.COM and certain other of the Company's Web Sites. The Company paid
TVisions the sum of $260,000 as payment in full for this license.
 
    In connection with the Company's sponsorship and management of INCIID.ORG,
it has committed to pay INCIID $0.5 million per year beginning in 1999 for three
years in equal quarterly installments, in cash or common stock as it determines
with respect to each quarter.
 
    The Company's ability to generate significant revenue is uncertain. The
Company incurred net losses of approximately $0.9 million for the year ended
December 31, 1996, $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 1997 and $4.9
million for the year ended December 31, 1998. The Company expects losses from
operations and negative cash flow to continue for the foreseeable future and at
least through the year 2000 as a result of its expansion plans and management's
expectation that operating expenses will increase significantly in the next
several years. The rate at which these losses will be incurred may increase from
current levels. Although the Company has experienced revenue growth in recent
periods, its revenue may not remain at its current level or increase in the
future. If the Company's revenue does not increase and if its spending levels
are not adjusted accordingly, it may not generate sufficient revenue to achieve
profitability, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations. Even if the Company
achieves profitability, it may not sustain or increase profitability on a
quarterly or annual basis in the future.
 
    The Company's working capital requirements depend on numerous factors. The
Company has experienced a substantial increase in its expenditures since
inception consistent with growth in its operations and staffing, and anticipate
that this will continue for the foreseeable future. The Company anticipates
incurring additional expenses to increase its marketing and sales efforts, for
content development and for technology and infrastructure development.
Additionally, the Company will continue to evaluate possible investments in
businesses, products and technologies, the expansion of its marketing and sales
programs and more aggressive brand promotions. If the Company experiences a
shortfall in revenue in relation to its expenses, or if its expenses precede
increased revenue, the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operation and could be materially and adversely affected.
 
    The Company currently anticipates that its available cash resources combined
with the net proceeds from an offering expected to take place in 1999 will be
sufficient to meet its anticipated needs for working capital and capital
expenditures through at least the year 2000. The Company may need to raise
additional funds, however, in order to fund more rapid expansion, to develop new
or enhance existing services or products, to respond to competitive pressures or
to acquire complementary products, businesses or technologies. There can be no
assurance that any required additional financing will be available in terms
favorable to the Company, or at all. If additional funds are raised by the
issuance of the Company's equity securities stockholders may experience dilution
of their ownership interest and these securities may have rights senior to those
of the holders of the common stock. If additional funds are raised by the
issuance of debt by the Company, it may be subject to certain limitations on its
operations, including limitations on the payment of dividends. If adequate funds
are not available or not available on acceptable terms, the Company may be
unable to fund its expansion, successfully promote its brand name, take
advantage of acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance services or respond
to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
    Although a significant portion of the Company's revenue is derived from
activities conducted outside the United States, fees paid to the Company have
been and are expected to continue to be paid in U.S. dollars. However, a
substantial portion of the Company's payroll is paid, and it is expected that
rent under leases of office facilities outside the United States will be paid,
in currencies other than U.S. dollars. Because the Company's financial results
are reported in U.S. dollars, they are affected by changes in the value of the
various foreign currencies in which the Company makes payments in relation to
the U.S.
 
                                       22
<PAGE>
dollar. The Company does not cover known or anticipated operating exposures
through foreign currency exchange option or forward contracts. The primary
currency for which the Company has foreign currency exchange rate exposure is
the Canadian dollar. The Company's financial instruments, including cash,
accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and advances from
shareholder are carried at cost which approximates their fair value because of
the short-term maturity of these instruments.
 
IMPACT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
    In March 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee ("AeSEC") issued
Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "ACCOUNTING FOR THE COSTS OF COMPUTER
SOFTWARE DEVELOPED OR OBTAINED FOR INTERNAL USE." This SOP provides guidance on
accounting for the costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal
use. SOP 98-1 identifies the characteristics of internal-use software and
provides examples to assist in determining when computer software is for
internal use and whether it should be expensed or capitalized. The SOP is
effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1998. Management believes that the Company currently complies with the
provisions of this standard and, therefore, believes that the adoption of this
standard will not have a significant impact on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations.
 
    The AcSEC SOP 98-5, "REPORTING COST OF START-UP ACTIVITIES," effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998, requires costs of start-up
activities and organization costs to be expensed as incurred. Currently, the
Company expenses these costs as incurred and, consequently, management believes
that the adoption of this SOP will not have an impact on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.
 
YEAR 2000
 
    Some computers, software and other equipment include programming code in
which calendar year data is abbreviated to only two digits. As a result of this
design decision, some of these systems could fail to operate or fail to produce
correct results if "00" is interpreted to mean 1900, rather than 2000. These
problems are widely expected to increase in frequency and severity as the year
2000 approaches and are commonly referred to as the year 2000 problem.
Significant uncertainty exists in the software and Internet industries
concerning the scope and magnitude of problems associated with the year 2000
problem.
 
    INTERNAL INFRASTRUCTURE.  The Company believes that it has identified
substantially all of the major computers, software applications and related
equipment used in connection with its internal operations to determine if they
will be year 2000 compliant. Based on the Company's assessment to date, it
presently believes that its internal computer systems are year 2000 compliant.
Nevertheless, the Company continues to test its internal systems, on a system by
system basis, as it completes its ongoing compliance efforts with respect to
non-information technology systems.
 
    SYSTEMS OTHER THAN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS.  In addition to computers
and related systems, the operation of the Company's offices and facilities
equipment, such as fax machines, photocopiers, telephone switches, security
systems, elevators and other common devices may be affected by the year 2000
problem. The Company has completed the assessment of potential effect of, and
costs of remediating, any year 2000 problem related to this equipment. The
Company does not have extensive facilities and office equipment at this time.
The Company estimates that the total cost of completing any required
modifications, upgrades or replacements of these internal systems will not be
material.
 
    SUPPLIERS.  The Company has been gathering information from and has
initiated communications with its service and content providers to identify and,
to the extent possible, resolve issues involving the year 2000 problem. However,
the Company has limited or no control over the actions of its service and
content providers. Thus, while management expects that it will be able to
resolve any significant year 2000 problems with the Company's systems, the
Company cannot guarantee that its service and content
 
                                       23
<PAGE>
providers will resolve any or all year 2000 problems with their systems before
the occurrence of a material disruption to the Company's business. Any failure
of these third-parties to resolve year 2000 problems with their systems in a
timely manner could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.
 
    MOST LIKELY CONSEQUENCES OF YEAR 2000 PROBLEMS.  The Company expects to
identify and resolve all year 2000 problems that could materially adversely
affect its business, financial condition or operating results. However, the
Company believes that it is not possible to determine with complete certainty
that all year 2000 problems affecting the Company have been identified or
corrected. The number of devices that could be affected and the interactions
among these devices are simply too numerous. In addition, the Company cannot
accurately predict how many failures related to the year 2000 problem will occur
or the severity, duration or financial consequences of such failures. As a
result, the Company expects that it could possibly suffer the following
consequences:
 
    - a significant number of operational inconveniences and inefficiencies for
      the Company, its service and content providers and its visitors that may
      divide management's time and attention and financial and human resources
      from the Company's ordinary business activities; and
 
    - a lesser number of serious system failures that may require significant
      efforts by the Company, its service and content providers or its visitors
      to prevent alleviate material business disruptions.
 
    In addition, there can be no assurance that governmental agencies, utility
companies, Internet access companies, third-party service providers and others
outside of the Company's control will be year 2000 compliant. The failure of
these entities to be year 2000 compliant could result in a systemic failure
beyond the Company's control, such as a prolonged Internet, telecommunications
or electrical failure, which could also prevent the Company from operating its
business, prevent visitors from accessing its Web sites or change the behavior
of consumers accessing its Web sites, which could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
    CONTINGENCY PLANS.  As discussed above, the Company is engaged in an ongoing
year 2000 assessment and has not yet developed any contingency plans. The
results of the Company's year 2000 simulation testing and the responses received
from third-party vendors and service providers will be taken into account in
determining the nature and extent of any contingency plans.
 
CERTAIN FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS
 
    This Form 10-KSB contains "forward looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company's actual results could
differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
Certain factors that might cause such a difference include, among other factors
noted herein, the following:
 
THE COMPANY HAS ONLY BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, SO BASIS FOR
  EVALUATION IS LIMITED.
 
    The Company began operations in April 1996 when it launched a limited,
initial Web site. The Company launched a more extensive Web site in September
1996. As a result, there is a limited history of operations for evaluating the
Company's business. The risks and difficulties frequently encountered by early
stage companies in new and rapidly evolving markets, including the Internet
market and the direct-to-consumer advertising market must be considered. Some of
these risks and uncertainties relate to the Company's ability to:
 
    - design, develop and implement effective marketing and advertising programs
      for existing clients and new clients;
 
    - maintain and expand its relationship with Novartis;
 
                                       24
<PAGE>
    - attract additional pharmaceutical and other healthcare advertisers in
      order to generate significant revenue;
 
    - build its organizational and technical infrastructures to manage its
      growth effectively;
 
    - maintain its current strategic relationships and develop new ones;
 
    - respond effectively to actions taken by its competitors;
 
    - attract a larger audience to its Web sites;
 
    - increase awareness of its brand and continue to develop visitor loyalty;
 
    - integrate acquired and managed businesses, technologies and services; and
 
    - attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.
 
    If the Company is unsuccessful in addressing these risks and uncertainties,
its business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially
and adversely affected.
 
THE COMPANY HAS LOST MONEY IN EVERY QUARTER IN EVERY YEAR, AND THESE LOSSES ARE
  EXPECTED TO CONTINUE IN THE FUTURE.
 
    Since it began operations in 1996, the Company has lost money in every
quarter and year. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had an accumulated
deficit of approximately $8.4 million. The Company intends to increase the
amount of its expenses significantly in the future in order to expand its
operations and employee base. It is not expected that the Company will generate
sufficient revenue to cover these expenses through at least the year 2000. If
the Company's revenue does not increase and it cannot adjust its level of
spending adequately, it may not generate sufficient revenue to become
profitable. Even if the Company does become profitable, it may not be able to
sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future.
The Company's ability to generate revenue depends primarily upon its ability to
attract visitors to its Web sites and to attract pharmaceutical and other
healthcare advertisers as clients.
 
THE COMPANY IS DEPENDENT ON NOVARTIS FOR A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF ITS REVENUE.
 
    Approximately 55% of the Company's revenue for the year ended December 31,
1997 and 65% of its revenue for the year ended December 31, 1998 resulted from
engagements by various independent divisions of Novartis. It is anticipated that
these and other divisions will account for a substantial portion of the
Company's revenue for the foreseeable future. The Company currently has an
agreement with one division of Novartis, Novartis Consumer Health Canada, to
manage its Habitrol smoking cessation Web site, which the Company designed,
developed and implemented. The Company is evaluating and working with Novartis
Pharma to design, develop and manage additional Web sites. The Company is also
discussing also discussing with Novartis other possible marketing and
advertising programs. It cannot be predicted whether the Company will be engaged
to perform any services as a result of these discussions. Novartis may elect to
terminate its agreements or engagements with the Company or it may demand
changes to the terms of these agreements or engagements that are less favorable
to the Company than existing terms. The Company does not have written agreements
with Novartis for most of these engagements. If the Company loses Novartis as a
customer or the relationship becomes less favorable to the Company, its
business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially and
adversely affected.
 
    Novartis may also choose to change or limit the products that it advertises
on the Internet or on the Company's Web sites. If it does, this change could
materially and adversely impact the Company's advertising revenue. In addition,
the Company's relationship with Novartis could be negatively affected by any
business or financial developments that impact Novartis, such as a delay or
failure to obtain or maintain FDA approval of pharmaceutical products, a general
downturn in its business or a reduction in its direct-to-consumer advertising
budget.
 
                                       25
<PAGE>
THE COMPANY MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY MANAGING ITS EXPANDING OPERATIONS.
 
    The Company is currently engaged in a significant expansion of its
operations. Also to date, a portion of the Company's software development and
all of its technical support, networks and hardware operations have been
outsourced to a third party. The Company's network and technical support are
currently being transferred to another third party and management is in the
process of evaluating the establishment of a facility in Toronto, Canada where
the Company's software development and technical and network support would be
located. In addition, the Company is considering establishing an office in
Parsippany, New Jersey in the near future, in connection with the Company's
proposed joint venture with CommonHealth.
 
    As part of the Company's expansion, it will have to implement additional
operational and financial systems, procedures and controls to maintain
appropriate coordination among its technical, accounting finance, marketing,
sales and editorial staffs. If these systems and controls are not adequate,
management will have significant difficulty managing the various business
functions of the Company's operations from multiple locations. The Company will
also need to recruit, train and retain a significant number of employees,
particularly employees with technical, marketing sales and healthcare
backgrounds. Individuals with these background are in high demand and management
is not certain that the Company will be able to attract the staff it needs. In
addition, many of the Company's senior management personnel have recently joined
the Company and have not yet become integrated into and experienced with the
Company's operations, policies, personnel and advertising clients. In connection
with the transition of the Company's technical operations, difficulties may
arise that could cause disruptions in the operation of its Web sites. Any of the
risks described above could have a material and adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
BECAUSE THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS MODEL IS UNPROVEN, IT MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL.
 
    There are various ways to sell advertising on the Internet, the most common
means being through simple advertisements on Web sites, known as banner
advertisements. The Company's business depends upon the sale of in depth
Internet-based marketing and advertising programs to pharmaceutical and other
healthcare companies. Sales of these programs usually depend upon a prospective
client first deciding to engage in direct-to-consumer advertising, then deciding
to adopt an Internet-based marketing or advertising strategy and finally
implementing that strategy by developing a marketing program for a particular
drug or other healthcare product. This typically involves a significant
commitment of time and money from the client and, management believes, requires
the Company to establish a closer relationship with the client than in the case
of banner advertisements. Based on the Company's experience, it typically takes
six weeks to nine months to finalize an agreement with a potential customer. In
addition, the Company's business depends upon its ability to design, develop and
implement customized marketing and advertising programs calculated to achieve a
specific client's marketing objectives. The Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected if
the business model it has adopted is not attractive to advertisers and if it is
unable to adapt to other business models for generating Internet advertising
revenue.
 
    The Company currently intends to sell advertising on its Web sites solely to
pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies. Accordingly, its target customer
base is limited. Most of the Company's current or potential advertising clients
have little or no experience using the Internet for marketing and advertising
and have allocated only a limited portion of their marketing and advertising
budgets to the Internet. The adoption of Internet marketing and advertising by
entities that have historically relied upon traditional media for marketing and
advertising required the acceptance of a new away of conducting business,
exchanging information and advertising products and services. These customers
may find Internet advertising to be less effective than traditional advertising
media for promoting their products and services. In addition, direct-to-consumer
pharmaceutical advertising is a relatively new concept and, as a result, there
can be no assurance that it will increase, generally or through the Internet.
 
                                       26
<PAGE>
THE COMPANY WILL NOT BE SUCCESSFUL IF THE USE OF THE INTERNET FOR ADVERTISING
  DOES NOT CONTINUE TO INCREASE.
 
    A significant percentage of the Company's revenue will be derived from
Internet marketing and advertising for the foreseeable future. Since the
Internet advertising market is new and rapidly evolving, management cannot yet
gauge its acceptance by advertisers as an effective media. The Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially and
adversely affected if the Internet advertising market develops more slowly than
expected. Moreover, "filter" software programs that limit or prevent advertising
from being delivered to an Internet visitor's computer are available. Widespread
adoption of this software could adversely affect the commercial viability of
Internet advertising and as a result would materially and adversely affect the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
    Advertisers may choose not to advertise on the Company's Web sites or may
pay less for advertising on its Web sites if they do not perceive the visitor
measurements of its Web sites to be reliable. No standard has been widely
accepted to measure the effectiveness of Internet advertising or to measure the
demographics of the Company's visitor base. Third parties currently provide
these measurement services for the Company. If such third parties are unable to
provide these services in the future, the Company would be required to perform
them itself or obtain them from another provider. This could cause the Company
to incur additional costs or cause interruptions in its business while these
services are replaced. In addition, the Company is implementing additional
systems designed to record demographic data of visitors. If these systems are
not implemented successfully, the Company may not be able to accurately evaluate
the demographic characteristics of the visitors.
 
THE COMPANY DEPENDS ON THE CONTINUED GROWTH OF THE INTERNET FOR ITS SERVICES.
 
    The Internet is relatively new and is rapidly evolving. The Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially and
adversely affected if Internet usage does not continue to grow. Internet usage
may be inhibited for a number of reasons:
 
    - demands placed on the Internet infrastructure and the potential decline in
      performance and reliability as usage grows;
 
    - security and authentication concerns with respect to the transmission over
      the Internet of confidential information such as credit card numbers and
      medical information, and attempts by unauthorized computer visitors, known
      as hackers, to penetrate online security systems; and
 
    - privacy concerns, including those related to the placement by Web sites of
      certain information to gather visitor information, known as "cookies", on
      a visitor's hard drive without the visitor's knowledge or consent.
 
    The Company must adapt as the Internet continues to evolve. To be
successful, the Company must adapt to the changing technologies in its rapidly
evolving market by continually enhancing its Web sites and introducing new
services to address its customers' changing demands. This will entail a
continuous level of development and capital spending and the Company could incur
substantial additional costs if it needs to modify its services or
infrastructure. The Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations will be materially and adversely affected if significant costs are
incurred to adapt, or if the Company cannot adapt, to these changes.
 
                                       27
<PAGE>
DO NOT RELY ON THE COMPANY'S QUARTERLY RESULTS AS AN INDICATION OF HOW WELL IT
  WILL DO IN THE FUTURE.
 
    The Company's quarterly operating results may vary significantly in the
foreseeable future due to a number of factors that could affect its revenue,
expenses or prospects during any particular quarter, These factors include:
 
    - the demand for direct-to-consumer healthcare advertising on the Internet
      in general and on the Company's Web sites in particular;
 
    - visitor traffic levels on the Company's Web sites;
 
    - the Company's ability to retain its significant clients, particularly
      Novartis;
 
    - the Company's ability to attract and retain other advertisers that are
      seeking in-depth Internet-based marketing and advertising programs;
 
    - changes in rates paid for Internet advertising resulting from competition
      or other factors;
 
    - technical difficulties or system downtime affecting the Internet or the
      operation of the Company's Web sites;
 
    - the amount and timing of the Company's costs related to its marketing and
      sales efforts;
 
    - costs the Company may incur as it expands its operations;
 
    - seasonality in advertising sales and Internet usage;
 
    - the Company's ability to price its marketing and advertising programs
      profitably;
 
    - costs related to the acquisition and integration of other businesses,
      technologies and services; and
 
    - economic conditions specific to the healthcare and pharmaceutical
      industries and to the Internet.
 
    The timing of the Company's advertising sales is one of the most significant
factors affecting quarterly results. The time between the date of initial
contact with a potential advertiser and the execution of a contract with the
advertiser typically ranges from six weeks for smaller agreements to nine months
for larger agreements. These contracts are also subject to delays over which the
Company has little or no control, including customers' budgetary constraints,
their internal acceptance review, whether or when regulatory approval of their
products is given by the FDA or other regulatory authority, the possibility of
cancellation or delay of projects by advertisers and any post-approval actions
taken by the FDA or other regulatory authority, including product recalls.
During the selling process, the Company may expend substantial funds and
management resources and yet not obtain adequate advertising revenue. Once a
contract is executed, a significant portion of the Company's revenue is derived
from customized Web site development and implementation projects, rather than
from recurring fees. As a result, the Company cannot predict with certainty when
it will perform the work necessary to receive payment for these projects.
 
    In any given quarter, the Company may not be able to adjust spending in a
timely manner to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in its revenue. Any
significant shortfall would have an immediate material and adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. Because the
Company has a limited operating history, it cannot yet determine whether
seasonal factors will affect the Company's quarterly operating results. Traffic
levels on Web sites have typically fluctuated during the summer and year-end
vacation and holiday periods, and this could result in a decrease in user
traffic on the Company's Web sites during these periods.
 
    Similar seasonal or other patterns may develop in the Internet advertising
industry. Due to all of the foregoing factors, and the other risks discussed in
this section, do not rely on quarter-to-quarter comparisons of the Company's
results of operations as an indication of future performance. It is possible
that in some future periods the Company's operating results will be below the
expectations of public market analysts and investors. In this event, the price
of the Company's common stock would likely fall.

THERE ARE MANY COMPETITORS IN THE HEALTHCARE SEGMENT OF THE INTERNET MARKET AND
  THE COMPANY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY AGAINST THEM.
 
    There are many companies that provide Internet and non-Internet based
marketing and advertising services to the healthcare industry. All of these
companies compete with the Company for advertisers, and Internet healthcare
companies also compete with the Company for visitor traffic. Management expects
competition to continue to increase as there are no substantial barriers to
entry into the Company's market. Increased competition could result in
reductions in the fees the Company receives for its marketing and advertising
services, lower margins, loss of clients, reduced visitor traffic to the
Company's Web sites, or loss of market share. Any of these occurrences could
materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations. Competition is also likely to increase significantly, not
only as new entities enter the market, but also as current competitors expand
their services. The Company's principal competitors include:
 
    - advertising agencies and consulting firms, such as Young & Rubicam and
      Agency.com, that develop marketing and advertising programs for
      pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies;
 
    - Web sites that deliver consumer healthcare information, either as their
      sole focus or as part of a more broadly-based site, such as Health Oasis,
      InteliHealth, iVillage, OnHealth, Thrive Online and WebMD;
 
    - general purpose consumer on-line service providers, such as America Online
      and Microsoft
 
    Network;
 
    - Web site development firms, such as USWeb/CKS; and
 
    - publishers and distributors of television, radio and print such as CBS,
      Disney, NBC and Time Warner.
 
    The Company's ability to compete depends on a number of factors, many of
which are outside of its control. These factors include quality of content, ease
of use, timing and market acceptance of new and enhanced services, and level of
sales and marketing efforts.
 
    Many of the Company's existing competitors, as well as a number of potential
new competitors, have longer operating histories, greater name recognition,
existing relationships with pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies and
significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the
Company does. This may allow them to devote greater resources than the Company
to the development and promotion of their services. These competitors may also
engage in more extensive development efforts, undertake more far-reaching
marketing campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing policies and make more
attractive offers to existing and potential employees, advertisers and alliance
partners. The Company's competitors may develop services that are equal or
superior to those provided by the Company or that achieve greater market
acceptance and brand recognition than the Company achieves. In addition, current
and potential competitors have established or may establish cooperative
relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase their ability
to address the needs of advertisers. It is possible that new competitors may
emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. The Company may not be able
to compete successfully or competitive pressures may have a material adverse
effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition. If
advertisers perceive the Internet generally or the Company's Web sites to be a
relatively limited or ineffective advertising medium, advertisers may be
reluctant to devote a significant portion of their advertising budget to
Internet advertising or to advertise on its Web sites.

THE COMPANY MUST CONTINUALLY ENHANCE AND DEVELOP THE CONTENT AND FEATURES OF ITS
  WEB SITES TO ATTRACT VISITOR TRAFFIC AND ADVERTISERS.
 
    The Company produces only a portion of the editorial content available on
its Web sites and relies on third-party firms and organizations for most of its
content. Much of the information on the Company's Web sites is easily available
from other sources. Other Web sites may present the same or similar content in a
superior manner to the Company's Web sites, which would adversely affect its
visitor traffic. To remain competitive, the Company must continue to enhance and
improve its content. In addition, the Company must continually improve the
responsiveness, functionality and features of its Web sites and develop other
products and services attractive to visitors and advertisers. Changes to the
Company's Web sites may contain undetected programming errors that require
significant design modifications, which may result in a loss of consumer
confidence and user support and a decrease in the value of the Company's brand
name. The Company plans to develop and introduce new features, functions,
content, products and services that will require the development or licensing of
increasingly complex technologies. The Company may not succeed in developing or
introducing features, functions, products and services that will attract
visitors and advertisers, which would be likely to materially and adversely
affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
THE COMPANY NEEDS TO CREATE A MEDICONSULT BRAND IDENTITY TO BE SUCCESSFUL.
 
    In order to build and align brand awareness of the Company, the Company must
succeed in its marketing efforts, provide high-quality services and increase the
number of visitors to its Web sites. In addition, healthcare consumers must,
among other things, perceive the Company as offering relevant, reliable
healthcare information from trustworthy sources. The Company intends to increase
significantly its marketing expenditures as part of its brand-building efforts.
If these efforts are unsuccessful and the Company cannot increase its brand
identity and increase revenue, its business, financial condition and results of
operations will be materially and adversely effected.
 
THE COMPANY IS SUBJECT TO THE RISKS OF INTEGRATING AND SUCCESSFULLY FUNDING ITS
  JOINT VENTURES AND ACQUISITIONS.
 
    The Company has in the past developed joint ventures with and acquired
complementary businesses, technologies, services or products, including
topic-specific Web sites, and may continue to do so in the future. In February
1999, the Company executed a memorandum of agreement outlining the principal
terms of a joint venture with CommonHealth, a healthcare advertising agency
specializing in traditional media advertising, to offer multimedia solutions to
pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies. The Company and CommonHealth have
agreed on the outline of a business plan and are in the process of developing
more formal documentation for the joint venture. The joint venture may not be
successfully established. If the joint venture is established, the operation of
the joint venture could be a significant distraction for management and require
significant Company resources. In addition, issues may arise between the parties
as to whether the joint venture or one of the venturers has the right to market
and perform particular services for specific clients.
 
    The Company recently acquired PHARMINFO.COM, a Web site providing
information on pharmaceutical products and clinical trials for pharmacists,
physicians and consumers. The Company also entered in agreements to manage
CYBERDIET.COM, a Web site providing tailored nutritional information and
programs, and sponsor INCIID.ORG, a Web site providing information on
infertility. In addition, the Company has an option to acquire CYBERDIET.COM.
The Company may not receive a positive return on its investment in these Web
sites and may not realize other benefits anticipated from these transactions.
The Company may have difficulty assimilating these Web sites and their
operations with its existing Web sites, which could result in a loss of visitor
traffic and revenue.
 
                                       30
<PAGE>
    The Company may not be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates or
joint venture and alliance partners in the future. Even if suitable candidates
are identified, the Company may not be able to enter into transactions with
these candidates on commercially acceptable terms. If the Company makes other
acquisitions or enters into these other arrangements, it could have difficulty
in integrating the acquired products, services or technologies into its
operations. These difficulties could disrupt ongoing business, distract
management and employees, increase the Company's expenses and materially and
adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company may incur significant amortization charges from the goodwill
resulting from acquisitions. The Company may also incur indebtedness or issue
equity securities to pay for future acquisitions or management or sponsorship
rights. The issuance of equity securities could be dilutive to the Company's
existing stockholders.
 
ASPECTS OF THE COMPANY'S WEB SITES MAY SUBJECT IT TO REGULATORY OVERSIGHT AND
  OTHER CONCERNS.
 
    Under the "MediXpert" services offered by the Company through
MEDICONSULT.COM, visitors pay a fee and ask a licensed physician particular
medical questions. A number of states have enacted laws that prohibit what is
known as the corporate practice of medicine. These laws are designed to prevent
interferences in the medical decision-making process from anyone who is not
licensed in that state. Although the Company has attempted to structure this
service in a manner that will not constitute the practice of medicine, if the
specialist is deemed to be practicing medicine, the specialist may be required
to be licensed as a physician in the jurisdiction where the visitor resides, or
the Company may be forced to cease providing the "MediXpert" service. In
addition, if the Company's specialists are deemed to be practicing medicine
without a license, the Company may be subject to a lawsuit alleging the aiding
or abetting of the unlicensed practice of medicine or potentially a medical
malpractice lawsuit. The Company has attempted to design the "MediXpert" service
to avoid claims that it or its specialists are practicing medicine. The
specialists provide general information in response to hypothetical questions.
No medical opinions or diagnoses are provided and no patient-specific
recommendations are made. The specialists are instructed to recommend that a
visitor consult with his or her physician, and state that all information
provided is for educational purposes only. Based on these limitations,
management believes that the services provided by the Company's specialists do
not constitute the practice of medicine. In the event that some state or other
regulatory agency determines that the Company or its specialists is practicing
medicine without a license, the Company will be required to revise or terminate
that portion of its business and it could be subject to potential liability.
 
    Numerous state and federal laws also govern the delivery of healthcare
services and goods. Healthcare licensing laws and laws prohibiting the offer,
payment or receipt of remuneration to induce referral to entities providing
healthcare services or goods, many of which are being actively enforced, apply
to Internet healthcare applications as well. In the event some state or federal
regulatory agency determined that the Company's relationship with one or more of
its advertisers that deliver healthcare services or goods violate any such laws,
then the Company could be subjected to fines and other costs and could be
required to revise or terminate that portion of its business. The Company's
pharmaceutical clients are also subject to review by the FDA for compliance with
regulations governing the information provided to consumers about a
pharmaceutical product. For example, these regulations limit recommended uses to
the specific uses approved by the FDA. The FDA also monitors compliance with DTC
advertising regulations. If the FDA adopts regulations specifically aimed at
pharmaceutical advertising on the Internet or takes action with respect to a
particular client's advertising program, the Company's existing marketing and
advertising programs for clients and future opportunities could be materially
and adversely affected.
 
THE COMPANY'S KEY PERSONNEL ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO ITS SUCCESS.
 
    The future success of the Company depends on the services of its senior
management personnel. The Company does not have key person life insurance on any
of its personnel. Loss of any one or more of the Company's senior management
personnel would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial
 
                                       31
<PAGE>
condition and results of operations. To be successful, the Company will also
need to attract and retain individuals with expertise in the areas of marketing
and sales and technology. In addition, the successful staffing and integration
of the Company's planned in-house programming operations will depend on the
Company's ability to attract and retain qualified employees. Although the
Company does not currently have a full-time Chief Financial Officer, it is in
the process of recruiting for this position. There is no assurance as to when
the Company will engage a Chief Financial Officer. Competition for qualified
personnel is intense, and the loss of key personnel, or the inability to
attract, train and retain the additional highly skilled personnel required for
the expansion of the Company's activities, would materially and adversely affect
its business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
THE COMPANY IS CONTROLLED BY ONE OF ITS EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS, WHOSE INTERESTS
  MAY DIFFER FROM OTHER STOCKHOLDERS.
 
    Mr. Robert A. Jennings, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, owned at
December 31, 1998 as an individual and through affiliated entities controls
61.5% of the outstanding shares of common stock. Accordingly, pursuant to
Delaware corporate law, Mr. Jennings controls the election of all of the
Company's directors and, in general, has sufficient voting power to determine
(without the consent of other Company stockholders) the outcome of any corporate
transaction or other matter submitted to the stockholders for approval. These
include mergers, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of the
Company's assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control.
The interests of Mr. Jennings may differ from the interests of other
stockholders.
 
THE COMPANY IS SUBJECT TO RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS.
 
    The Company's business is conducted through operations and employees in
Bermuda, Canada and the United States. The Company's international operations
and activities subject it to a number of risks, which include the risk of
complying with multiple complex regulatory requirements, like European Community
regulations affecting Internet operations, and the risks of political and
economic instability, difficulty in managing foreign operations, potentially
adverse taxes, higher expenses and difficulty in collection of account
receivables. In addition, the Company receives most of its revenue in U.S.
dollars, but a substantial portion of its payroll and other expenses are paid in
the currency of the country where its employees reside or its operations are
located. Because the Company's financial results are reported in U.S. dollars,
they are affected by changes in the value of the various foreign currencies that
the Company uses to make payments in relation to the U.S. dollar. The Company
does not cover known or anticipated operating exposures through foreign currency
exchange option or forward contracts.
 
THE INTERNET IS SUBJECT TO MANY GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS WHICH MAY IMPACT THE
  COMPANY'S ABILITY TO CONDUCT BUSINESS.
 
    There is, and will be, an increasing number of laws and regulations
pertaining to the Internet. These laws or regulations may relate to liability
for information received from or transmitted over the Internet, online content
regulation, user privacy, taxation and quality of products and services. In
addition, the applicability to the Internet of existing laws governing
intellectual property ownership and infringement, copyright, trademark, trade
secret, obscenity, libel, employment, personal privacy and other issues is
uncertain and developing. Any new law or regulation, or the adverse application
or interpretation of existing laws, may decrease the growth in the use of the
Internet or the Company's Web sites. This could decrease the demand for the
Company's services, increase its cost of doing business or otherwise have a
material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of
operations.
 
THE COMPANY MAY BE SUBJECT TO CLAIMS BASED ON THE CONTENT IT PROVIDES ON THE
  INTERNET.
 
    Because visitors to the Company's Web sites may distribute its content to
other people, third parties might sue the Company for defamation, negligence,
product liability, copyright or trademark infringement,
 
                                       32
<PAGE>
or other matters. These types of claims have been brought, sometimes
successfully, against other on-line services in the past. The Company may also
incur liability for the content on other Web sites that are linked to its Web
sites or for content and materials that may be posted by visitors in chat rooms
or bulletin boards. The Company's e-mail services may also subject it to
potential claims resulting from unsolicited e-mail, lost or misdirected
messages, illegal or fraudulent use of e-mail or interruptions or delays in
e-mail service. The Company also enters into agreements with commerce partners
that entitle it to receive a share of any revenue from the purchase of goods and
services through direct links from the Company's Web sites to their Web sites.
These arrangements may subject the Company to additional claims, including
product liability or personal injury related to these products and services,
because the Company provides access to these products or services, even if it
does not provide the products or services itself.
 
SATISFACTORY PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY'S WEB SITES IS CRITICAL TO ITS BUSINESS
  AND REPUTATION.
 
    The performance of the Company's Web sites is critical to its business and
reputation and to its ability to attract visitors and advertisers to its Web
sites. The Company is dependent upon the continuous, reliable and secure
operation of Internet servers and related hardware and software. To the extent
that service is interrupted or delayed, the Company could experience a decrease
in traffic and revenue. The Company does not presently have any back up
"off-site" systems or a formal disaster recovery plan, nor does it have
insurance coverage for business interruption. Substantially all of the Company's
communications hardware and some of its other computer hardware operations are
located in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Toronto, Canada. Fire, floods,
earthquakes, power loss, telecommunications failures, break-ins and similar
events could damage these systems. Computer viruses, electronic break-ins or
other similar disruptive problems could also adversely affect the Company's Web
sites.
 
    The Company's Web sites must accommodate a high volume of traffic and
deliver information that is updated frequently. The Company's Web sites have in
the past and may in the future experience slower response times or decreased
traffic for a variety of reasons. In addition, visitors to the Company's Web
sites depend on Internet service providers, online service providers and other
Web site operators for access to its Web sites. Many of them have experienced
significant outages in the past and could experience outages, delays and other
difficulties due to system failures unrelated to the Company's systems in the
future.
 
    The on-going enhancement of the Company's Web site is dependent upon the
success of development efforts that will be performed by in-house employees and
by contractors. To the extent that these development effort are delayed or
unsuccessful, the Company will incur additional development expenses and may not
remain competitive in the design and use of its Web sites.
 
A LACK OF SECURITY OVER THE INTERNET MAY IMPACT THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS.
 
    A significant barrier to electronic commerce and confidential communications
over the Internet has been the need for secure transmission of confidential
information. Internet usage could decline if any well-publicized compromise of
security occurred. The Company may incur significant costs to protect against
the threat of security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by such
breaches. Experienced programmers could attempt to penetrate the Company's
network security. Programmers who are able to penetrate the Company's network
security could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions in
the Company's services, and the Company could be required to expand capital and
resources to protect against or to alleviate problems caused. Purposeful
security breaches could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operation and financial condition.
 
THE COMPANY IS DEPENDENT ON ITS INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.
 
    Trademarks, copyrights and other proprietary rights are important to the
Company's success and its competitive position. Third parties may infringe or
misappropriate the Company's trademarks, copyrights and other proprietary
rights, which could have a material and adverse effect on the Company's
business,
 
                                       33
<PAGE>
financial condition and results of operations. In addition, management does not
know how extensive the Company's intellectual property protection is since the
validity, enforceability and scope of protection of proprietary rights in
Internet-related industries is uncertain and still evolving.
 
    The Company licenses some of its content from third parties. It is possible
that the Company could become subject to infringement actions based upon the
content obtained from these third parties. In addition, others may use this
content and the Company may be subject to claims from its licensors. These
claims, with or without merit, could subject the Company to costly litigation
and the diversion of its financial resources and technical and management
personnel. The Company has entered into confidentiality agreements with its key
employees and independent consultants and has instituted procedures to control
access to and distribution of its technology, documentation and other
proprietary information and the proprietary information of others from which it
has licensed content or technology. Despite the Company's efforts to protect its
proprietary rights, parties may attempt to disclose, obtain or use the Company's
content or technologies. There can be no assurance that the steps the Company
has taken will prevent misappropriation of its content or technologies.
 
YEAR 2000 PROBLEMS MAY DISRUPT THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS.
 
    It is generally anticipated that many organizations will experience
operational difficulties at the beginning of the year 2000 as a result of the
fact that many currently installed computer systems and software products are
coded to accept only two digit entries in the date code field. The costs of
defending and resolving year 2000-related disputes, and any liability of
Mediconsult for year 2000-related damages, including consequential damages,
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations. Based on management's assessment to date,
it is believed that the Company's internal systems are year 2000 compliant and
will not produce erroneous results, fail to function, or interrupt performance.
Despite testing, the Company's systems may contain undetectable errors or
defects associated with the year 2000 and operational difficulties may result.
To the extent that management's assessment is finalized without identifying any
additional material non-compliant information technology systems or
non-information technology systems that the Company operates or that are
operated by third parties, the most reasonably likely worst case year 2000
scenario is a systemic failure beyond the Company's control, such as a prolonged
Internet, telecommunications or electrical failure. Such a failure could prevent
the Company from operating its business, prevent visitors from accessing its Web
sites, or change the behavior of consumers accessing its Web sites. Management
believes that the primary business risks, in the event of such a failure, would
include loss of advertising revenue, increased operating costs, loss of visitors
to the Company's Web site, or other business interruptions of a material nature,
as well as claims of mismanagement, misrepresentation, or breach of contract,
any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
results of operations and financial condition. The Company has no contingency
plans to address such risks.
 
IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR A THIRD PARTY TO ACQUIRE THE COMPANY.
 
    Provisions of the Company's certificate of incorporation, its by-laws and
Delaware law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire it, even
if it would be beneficial to the Company's stockholders.

(1) Options are In-the-Money if the market value of the shares covered thereby
    is greater than the option exercise price. This calculation is based on the
    fair market value of the common stock at December 31, 1998, of $8.19 per
    share, less the exercise price.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
 
    Directors of the Company do not receive any fees for their services as
directors. Each director, however, is reimbursed for all reasonable and
necessary costs and expenses incurred as a result of being a director, such as
expenses incurred for attendance at meetings of the board of directors.
 
    In November, 1998 the Company entered into a services agreement with Treacy
& Co., an entity of which Michael Treacy, one of the directors of the Company,
is a principal, under which the Company received various services from Treacy &
Co. in consideration of the grant of options to acquire 2,000,000 shares of
common stock at an exercise price of $.003 per share. All of the options have
vested and expire on November 16, 2003. In addition, the Company's majority
stockholder granted Treacy & Co. an option to acquire 358,333 shares of common
stock owned by such stockholder, at an exercise price of $1.20 per share. The
services provided included marketing, sales and client services advice,
strategic planning as well as seconding Mr. Swanson to act in the capacity of
the Company's Vice President, Sales. The Company has no obligation to grant
additional options to Treacy & Co.
 
    In addition, on October 31, 1998, John Buchanan and Barry Guld each received
options to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50
per share, which vest at a rate of 5,000 shares per month beginning on October
31, 1998 for their services on the Board of Directors.

                                       38
<PAGE>
and invention assignment agreement, which prohibits such executive from, among
other things, disseminating or using confidential information about the
Company's business or clients in any way that would be adverse to Mediconsult.
 
STOCK OPTION PLAN
 
    In April 1996, the Company's board of directors adopted the Company's 1996
Stock Option Plan. The plan was approved by the Company's stockholders during
May 1996. The plan allows the board to grant stock options from time to time to
employees, officers, directors and consultants. The board has the power to
determine at the time the option is granted whether the option will be and
Incentive Stock Option (an option which qualifies under Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986) or an option which is not an Incentive Stock
Option. However, Incentive Stock Options will only be granted to persons who are
employees of the Company. Vesting provisions are determined by the board at the
time options are granted. As originally adopted, the total number of shares of
common stock subject to options under the plan was not to exceed 1,000,000,
subject to adjustment in the event of certain recapitalizations, reorganizations
and similar transactions. The plan provides that all outstanding options will
vest upon a change of control. The exercise price is payable in cash, stock or
any other means as determined by the board. On December 31, 1997, the shares
eligible under the plan were increased to 2,500,000 shares.
 
    The board of directors may amend the 1996 Plan at any time, provided that
the board may not amend the plan to materially increase the number of shares
available under the plan, materially increase the benefits accruing to
participants under the plan, or materially change the eligible class of
employees without first obtaining stockholder approval.
 
    There have been a total of 2,353,050 options granted under the plan, of
which 1,626,550 have been exercised as of December 31, 1998. There were 716,000
options outstanding as of December 31, 1998.

ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
 
    Recently, the Mediconsult Trust, which has been the Company's majority
stockholder and is controlled by Robert Jennings, Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, transferred its interest in the Company to JHC Limited,
a Bermuda corporation also controlled by Mr. Jennings. As a result, JHC Limited
is the majority stockholder of the Company. The Mediconsult Trust has from time
to time advanced funds to the Company on an interest-free basis. On September
30, 1998, the Board of Directors approved the conversion of the advances made by
the Trust to the Company up to that date into shares of junior preferred stock
with a $10 liquidation preference. In connection with this conversion, the
Company's certificate of incorporation was amended to provide, among other
things, that the outstanding junior preferred stock will be automatically
convertible into 8.33 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment, upon the
occurrence of a "Conversion Event." A "Conversion Event" includes the closing of
the public offering currently contemplated by the Company's registration
statement on Form S-1 filed on February 26, 1999.
 
                                       41

    The Company is a party to a Strategic Consulting Interim Agreement dated
November 16, 1998, with Treacy & Co. and the Trust. The agreement provides that
in consideration for consulting services rendered by Treacy to the Company in
connection with marketing, sales and client services advice, strategic planning
and the seconding of Mr. Swanson to act in the capacity of Vice President,
Sales, the Company granted Treacy & Co. immediately exercisable options to
purchase 2,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $.003 per
share, which expire on November 16, 2003. In addition, the Trust granted Treacy
& Co. an option to purchase 358,333 shares of common stock, exercisable from and
after a Conversion Event, at an exercise price of $1.20 per share, which expires
on December 31, 1999. The agreement gives Treacy & Co. certain registration
rights in the event of a public offering.
 
    The Company granted options to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock to
Messrs. Guld and Buchanan on October 31, 1998 for their services on the
Company's Board of Directors.
 
    On February 26, 1999, the Company sold in a private placement an aggregate
of 506,329 shares of its newly designated senior preferred stock and warrants
exercisable for five years to purchase 224,000 shares of such senior preferred
stock to Nazem & Company IV, L.P., Transatlantic Venture Fund C.V. (a joint
venture of Nazem & Company and Banque Nationale de Paris) and other individual
investors, for an aggregate of $3.2 million. The purchase price was, and the
conversion price of the senior preferred stock and exercise price of the
warrants is, $6.32 per share, an amount equal to 85% of the average bid and ask
price of the shares of Common Stock on the OTC Bulletin Board for the relevant
30-day period preceding the closing. The shares of senior preferred stock are
convertible at any time at the option of the holder into an equal number of
shares of common stock, subject to adjustment, and will be automatically
converted into an equal number of shares of common stock upon the closing of
this offering. The holders of the senior preferred stock have the right to
nominate a member of the Company's board of directors so long as they maintain
at least 50% of their original share position. The senior preferred stock has
voting rights on an as-converted basis. In connection with such private
placement, the Company agreed to provide the holders of senior preferred stock
or common stock issuable upon the conversion of senior preferred stock demand
and piggyback registration rights, the right to tag-along with founders of the
Company in certain sales of their shares. For as long as the investors hold at
least 50% of their original shares position, the Company agreed not to effect
any material change in the direction of its business unless approved by at least
two-thirds of the board of directors and then only after consultation with the
investors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
TO THE DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS OF MEDICONSULT.COM, INC.
 
    In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related
consolidated statements of operations and stockholders' equity and of cash flows
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Mediconsult.com, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1997 and 1998, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards in the United States of America which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the 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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1. ORGANIZATION
 
    Mediconsult.com, Inc. (the "Company") was originally incorporated under the
laws of the State of Colorado in October 1989. In April 1996, the Company
purchased Mediconsult.com Limited, a Bermuda corporation (MCL), through a merger
in which MCL became a wholly-owned subsidiary, resulting in 90% of the
outstanding stock of Mediconsult being held by the former stockholders of
MCL--The Mediconsult Trust, controlled by Mr. Robert Jennings, and Michel
Bazinet. In December 1996, the Company consummated a reincorporation merger
pursuant to which it became a Delaware corporation. Mediconsult conducts its
business primarily through MCL.
 
    The Company is a provider of patient-oriented healthcare information and
services on the World Wide Web. The Company's sites provide a source of medical
information and are designed to empower consumers through increased consumer
education regarding medical conditions and treatment alternatives. The Company's
sites also provide a destination on the Internet where visitors can interact
with others in communities centered around chronic medical conditions and other
health issues. The Company facilitates this environment through an array of
complementary services such as moderated on-line support groups and discussion
forums.
 
2. NEED FOR FUTURE CAPITAL
 
    The Company has sustained losses and negative cash flows from operations
since inception and expects these conditions to continue for the foreseeable
future. As of December 31, 1998, the Company has an accumulated deficit of
$8,399,011. The implementation of the Company's business plan is dependent on
obtaining additional financing through public or private sources, strategic
relationships or other arrangements. The Company's current cash resources and
anticipated cash flow from operating activities are not expected to be
sufficient to meet its anticipated need for working capital. The Company has a
commitment from its majority stockholder to provide additional funds, as needed,
to cover its working capital needs through February 2000. However, the Company
will require additional funds to implement its business plan and growth plans.
There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available on
terms attractive to the Company, or at all.
 
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
    These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The
following is a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies:
 
       A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
       The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going
       concern basis with the assumption that the Company will secure additional
       financing through a private or public share offering or from the
       principal shareholders to fund cash flow deficiencies and the Company
       will ultimately become profitable.
 
       B) USE OF 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
       and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
       financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
       during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
       estimates.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
       C) BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
 
       These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
       Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and
       transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.
 
       D) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
 
       Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant
       concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, short and
       long-term investments, and accounts receivable. Substantially all of the
       Company's cash, short and long-term investments are managed by one
       financial institution. Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and
       are derived from revenues earned from customers primarily located in the
       United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its
       customers and maintains reserves for potential credit losses;
       historically, such losses have been immaterial and within management's
       expectations. At December 31, 1998, two customers accounted for 43% and
       12% of the accounts receivable balance, respectively. During 1998 and
       1997, one customer accounted for 65% and 55% of net revenues,
       respectively.
 
       E) REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
       The Company's revenues are derived from the development and
       implementation of on-line marketing and advertising programs for
       pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies. Such revenues are
       recognized ratably over the period that the development work is
       performed. Development work could include marketing research, focus-group
       testing, on-line testing of visitor preferences, and development of
       customized client Web sites.
 
       Revenue from the sale of banner advertisements are recognized ratably in
       the period in which the advertisement is displayed, provided that no
       significant Company obligations remain and collection of the resulting
       receivable is probable. Company obligations typically include guarantees
       of minimum number of "impressions", or times that an advertisement
       appears in pages viewed by users of the Company's on-line properties. To
       the extent minimum guaranteed impressions are not met, the Company defers
       recognition of the corresponding revenues until the remaining guaranteed
       impression levels are achieved.
 
       Revenues from the licensing of the Company's content are recognized
       ratably over the period of the license agreement.
 
       A number of the Company's agreements provide that the Company receive
       revenues from electronic commerce transactions. These revenues are
       recognized by the Company upon notification of revenues earned by the
       Company and, to date, have not been material.
 
       F) TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS
 
       Property and equipment, mainly comprising purchased computer equipment
       and software is recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line
       method over their estimated useful lifes of two years. The carrying
       amounts and accumulated depreciation for fixed assets sold or retired are
       eliminated from the respective accounts and gains or losses realized on
       disposition are reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of
       operation.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
       G) INTANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS
 
       Intangible fixed assets comprise content and design of PHARMINFO.COM
       (note 4). Intangible fixed assets are recorded at cost and amortized
       using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives of two
       years. No amortization was recorded in the year ended December 31, 1998,
       as PHARMINFO.COM was acquired on December 31, 1998. The recoverability of
       these assets is continually evaluated by comparing the remaining
       unamortized cost to the estimated future cash flows of the associated
       assets. Provisions for estimated losses are recorded in the period in
       which such losses are determined.
 
       H) MARKETING AND ADVERTISING
 
       Advertising production costs are recorded as expense the first time an
       advertisement appears. All other advertising costs are expensed as
       incurred. The Company does not incur any direct-response advertising
       costs.
 
       I) PRODUCT AND CONTENT DEVELOPMENT COSTS
 
       The cost of development and enhancement of the technology used in the
       Company's Web sites are expensed as incurred.
 
       J) EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION COMPENSATION
 
       Stock options for common stock granted to employees are expensed over
       their vesting period based on their fair value at the date of grant under
       Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123 "ACCOUNTING
       FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION." The fair value of stock options is
       estimated using an option-pricing model that takes into account the
       exercise price, expected life of the options, current market price of the
       common stock and their expected volatility, expected dividends on the
       common stock, and the risk-free interest rate based on zero-coupon U.S.
       government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the
       options.
 
       K) BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE
 
       The Company adopted SFAS 128, "EARNINGS PER SHARE" during the year ended
       December 31, 1997 and retroactively restated all prior periods. Basic
       earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of
       common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share
       is computed using the weighted average number of common and common
       equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares
       consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon conversion of the
       convertible preferred stock (using the if-converted method) and shares
       issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants (using the
       treasury stock method). Common equivalent shares are excluded from the
       computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
       L) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
 
       In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
       SFAS 130, "REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME." SFAS 130 establishes
       standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components in a
       financial statement. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes
       in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. The
       disclosure prescribed by SFAS 130 must be made for the Company's year
       ended December 31, 1998. For the years presented, the Company's
       comprehensive income was equal to net income.
 
       M) SEGMENTS
 
       Additionally in June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS 131, "DISCLOSURES ABOUT
       SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION." This statement
       establishes standards for the way companies report information about
       operating segments in annual financial statements. It also establishes
       standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic
       areas, and major customers. The disclosures prescribed by SFAS 131 will
       be effective for the year ending December 31, 1998 consolidated financial
       statements. The Company believes that it does not operate in more than
       one segment.
 
       N) FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
       SFAS 107 "DISCLOSURE ABOUT THE FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS",
       requires disclosure about the fair value of certain financial
       instruments. The Company's financial instruments, including cash,
       accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and
       advances from shareholder are carried at cost which approximates their
       fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.
 
       O) ORGANIZATION COSTS
 
       All costs associated with start-up activities and organization costs are
       expensed as incurred.
 
       P) RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
       In March 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee ("AcSEC")
       issued Statement of Position ("SOP") issued 98-1, "ACCOUNTING FOR THE
       COSTS OF COMPUTER SOFTWARE DEVELOPED OR OBTAINED FOR INTERNAL USE". This
       SOP provides guidance on accounting for the costs of computer software
       developed or obtained for internal use. SOP 98-1 identifies the
       characteristics of internal-use software and provides examples to assist
       in determining when computer software is for internal use and whether it
       should be expensed or capitalized. The SOP is effective for financial
       statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. Management
       believes that the Company currently complies with the provisions of this
       standard and, therefore, believes that the adoption of this standard will
       not have a significant impact on the Company's business, financial
       condition and results of operations.
 
       The AcSEC SOP 98-5, "REPORTING COSTS OF START-UP ACTIVITIES", is
       effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. This SOP
       requires costs of start-up activities and organization costs to be
       expensed as incurred. Currently, the Company expenses such costs as
       incurred and, consequently, management believes that the adoption of this
       SOP will not have an impact on the Company's business, financial
       condition and results of operations.

       B) SHARE RIGHTS
 
           I) $.001 PAR VALUE PREFERRED STOCK
 
           The preferred stock may be issued from time to time in series as
           determined by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors is
           authorized to fix and determine the variations in the relative rights
           and preferences as between series. The preferred stock may have
           limited, contingent or no voting powers; may have such designations,
           preferences, dividends, and relative, participating, optional or
           other special rights; and be subject to such qualifications,
           limitations and restrictions as the Board of Directors shall
           determine. The preferred stock may be subject to redemption by the
           Company or at the options of the holders thereof and may be
           convertible into common stock or exchangeable for other securities of
           the Company. So long as no shares of any class or series established
           by resolution of the Board of Directors have been issued, the voting
           rights, designations, preferences and relative, optional,
           participating or other rights of these shares may be amended by
           resolution of the Board of Directors.
 
           II) PREFERRED STOCK
 
           In September 1998 the Board of Directors and the stockholders,
           respectively, approved an amendment (the "Amendment") to the
           Certificate of Designation of the Preferred Stock to, among other
           things, change the existing $10 Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock to a
           cumulative preferred stock and change the name to "Preferred Stock".
           Under the amendment each issued and outstanding share of Preferred
           Stock entitles the holder of record to receive cumulative dividends
           payable in additional shares of Preferred Stock at the rate of 8% per
           annum, payable semi-annually. Each share of Preferred Stock is
           automatically convertible into 8.33 shares of Common Stock, subject
           to an adjustment, upon certain occurrences. The conversion rate of
           the Preferred Stock has standard anti-dilution protections in the
           event of stock splits, dividends, combinations, mergers and
           reorganizations, but is not protected from issuances below the base
           conversion rate. No dividends were declared during the years ended
           December 31, 1997 or prior to September 30, 1998, when dividends on
           such shares became cumulative. In the year ended December 31, 1998
           accumulated dividends were 8,600 shares which are convertible into
           71,666 common shares.
