ViewCast.com, Inc. and Subsidiaries 
 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of ViewCast.com, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries,
Delta Computec Inc. (DCi), Osprey Technologies, Inc., VideoWare, Inc. and
ViewCast Online Solutions, Inc. (collectively, the Company or ViewCast). All
material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim
financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain prior
period balances have been reclassified to conform to current period
presentation. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30,
2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending December 31, 2004. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the year ended December 31, 2003
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company utilizes significant capital to design, develop and
commercialize its products and intends to fund its 2004 operating activities
and sales growth by utilizing cash contributed from operations and its
available working capital lines of credit to the extent possible. The Company
anticipates it will require additional working capital during 2004 to support
the expansion of sales channels and market distribution, to develop and
introduce new products and services, to enhance existing product offerings, to
address unanticipated competitive threats or technical problems, to transition
adverse economic conditions and for potential acquisition transactions. In
January 2004, the Company retained Rockland Capital Partners, an investment
banking firm, to assist the Company with its strategic initiatives including
addressing capital requirements. Although the Company has no firm arrangements
with respect to additional financing, it is currently considering proposals by
potential investors relating to the issuance of equity securities in exchange
for a cash investment in the Company. There can be no assurance that
additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or
at all. Additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our
then existing stockholders. The Company intends to actively pursue other such
strategic merger and acquisition activities to the extent possible. In the
event the Company is unable to raise additional capital or execute other
alternatives, we may be required to sell segments of the business, or
substantially reduce or curtail our activities. Such actions could result in
charges that could be material to the ViewCasts results of operations or
financial position. 2. Accounts Receivable The Companys accounts receivable are primarily due from resellers and
distributors of our video communications products and services and from
customers in the healthcare, pharmaceutical, financial services and educational
industries to whom we provide information technology services and products.
Credit is extended based on evaluation of each customers financial condition
and, generally collateral is not required except for certain international
customers. Accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days and are stated
net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than
contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company records an
allowance on a specific basis by considering a number of factors, including the
length of time trade accounts are past due, the Companys previous loss
history, the credit-worthiness of individual customers, economic conditions
affecting specific customer industries and economic conditions in general. The
Company writes-off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible and
payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited against
write-offs in the period the payment is received. Changes in the Companys allowance for doubtful accounts for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2004 are as follows: 7

 5. Warranty Reserves Reserves are provided for the estimated warranty costs when revenue is
recognized. The costs of warranty obligations are estimated based on warranty
policy or applicable contractual warranty, historical experience of known
product failure rates and use of materials and service delivery charges
incurred in correcting product failures. Specific warranty accruals may be made
if unforeseen technical problems arise. If actual experience, relative to these
factors, adversely differs from these estimates, additional warranty expense
may be required. The following table below shows the roll forward of warranty expense for
the three months and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2004: 8

 7. Short-term Debt Since October 1998, the Company has maintained a working capital line of
credit facility with an entity controlled by one of its principal stockholders,
Mr. H.T. Ardinger, who also currently serves as Chairman of the Board of
Directors of the Company. Prior to October 15, 2003, availability of funds
under this facility was subject to certain borrowing base limitations based
principally on qualifying accounts receivable and inventory with interest
payable on demand at 12% and secured by the assets of ViewCast.com, Inc. In
October 2003, ViewCast.com, Inc., Osprey Technologies, Inc. and VideoWare, Inc.
(jointly and severally, the Borrower) amended the terms and conditions of
this credit note and security agreement with the Ardinger Family Partnership,
LTD. (Lender). As of the date of the agreement, the outstanding principal
balance of the indebtedness under the original loan agreement was $7,509,582
and accrued and unpaid interest thereon was $1,243,665. Additionally, in
October of 2003 the Company had outstanding $500,000 in advances from Lender
for the purchase of DCi in October 2002. Effective October 15, 2003, the terms
and conditions of the note agreement were amended to establish a long-term
payout for $6,909,582 principal amount of the note and accrued interest of
$1,243,665. Additionally, a new $2.0 million short-term line of credit
facility was established with an initial principal amount $1.1 million
consisting of $600,000 principal amount of the original note and $500,000 of
stockholder advances. The amended note agreement reduces the per annum
interest rate on stockholder notes from 12% to the lesser of prime plus 3.0% or
9.5%, eliminates the borrowing base requirements based on outstanding accounts
receivable and inventory and is secured by all assets of the Borrower.
Effective April 30, 2004, the Company amended the terms and conditions of the
credit facility to increase the credit line of the revolving credit note to
$2.25 million and extended the commencement date for the scheduled payments of
the term note and accrued interest from April 30, 2004 to August 31, 2004.
Effective August 13, 2004, the Company amended the terms and conditions of the
credit facility to increase the credit line of the revolving credit note to
$3.0 million and extended the commencement date for the scheduled payments of
the term note and accrued interest from to December 31, 2004. 9

ViewCast.com, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  Continued During the six months ended June 30, 2004, net borrowings under the new
stockholder line of credit note were $855,000 resulting in a note principal
balance of $2,155,000 at June 30, 2004. Total accrued interest on stockholder
notes at June 30, 2004 totaled $1,662,038 of which $1,020,911 has been
classified as long-term. At June 30, 2004, the Company had availability under
the stockholder line of credit of $95,000. The Company also maintains a $1.5 million asset based revolving credit
facility with Keltic Financial Partners, LP (Keltic) for working capital
support of DCi operations. Draws on the revolving credit facility are based on
qualifying DCi accounts receivable. The loan balance is reduced as cash
collections are received directly by Keltic. During the six months ended June
30, 2004, cash collections in excess of draws reduced the Keltic loan balance
to $583,279 at June 30, 2004. DCi had availability of $628,000 under the
revolving credit facility at June 30, 2004. The Company has entered into a
Guaranty of Payment and a Performance and Subordination Agreement with Keltic
relating to this facility. Short-term debt consists of the following: December 31,

ViewCast.com, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  Continued In April 2004, the Company received Notices of Conversion from the holders
of $870,000 of the outstanding 7% Senior Convertible Debentures. The terms of
the conversion include a lowered conversion price of the Debentures from $5.00
to $0.41 per share of ViewCast common stock or a total of 2,121,947 shares of
common stock for the $870,000 converted. Each Debentureholder that converted
its Debentures also received in cash the interest accrued under the terms of
the Debenture for the period of time from November 2, 2003 through April 28,
2004 in the amount of $35.00 per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures
converted, which would otherwise, pursuant to the terms of the Debentures, be
forfeited upon conversion. In addition, the converting Debentureholders
received 635,970 warrants exercisable for three (3) years into shares of common
stock of the Company (the Warrant Shares) at an exercise price of $0.45 per
Warrant Share, and in connection therewith, were granted certain piggyback
registration rights for the Warrant Shares. In conjunction with the debenture
conversions, the Company has agreed to pay a consulting fee consisting of
hourly fees of $7,000, payable in cash or restricted stock at ViewCasts
option, and of warrants exercisable into 15,000 shares of common stock with the
same terms as the warrants issued to the converting Debentureholders. The Company accounts for the conversion of convertible debt to equity
securities in accordance with SFAS No. 84, Induced Conversions of Convertible
Debt. In other income (expense), the Company has recognized an imputed amount
for debt conversion expense equal to the fair value of all securities and other
consideration transferred in the transaction in excess of the fair value of
securities issuable pursuant to the original conversion terms. Number

non-cash charge and is a reconciling adjustment in calculating net cash used in
operating activities. 9. Series D Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock During October 2002 through June 2003, the Company issued 150,670 shares
of Series D Preferred Stock as partial consideration for the acquisition of DCi
and for related investment banking fees. Each share of Series D Preferred
Stock has a stated value of $10.00 with a conversion option to common stock at
$1.50 per share of Company common stock. The Series D Preferred Stock provides
redemption rights for the holders and the Company, and other rights as
described in the Certificate of Designation of the Series D Preferred Stock.
The Series D Preferred Stock is redeemable at its stated value at the holders
option upon written notice at any time after October 11, 2004. The value of
the 150,670 shares issued and outstanding at June 30, 2004 reflects a discount
of $35,011 from the stated value of $1,506,700 that will be recorded as imputed
interest expense until the initial redemption date of October 11, 2004. During
the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company recognized interest expense of
$52,517 on the Series D Preferred Stock. Imputed dividends recognized during
the quarter ended March 31, 2004 in the amount of $26,259 have been
reclassified from additional paid in capital to interest expense to conform to
current period presentation. The Series D Preferred Stock is redeemable at its
stated value at the Companys option upon written notice at any time after
October 11, 2005 or prior to that date if the Companys common stock has a
weighted average closing price of $3.75 per share for ten consecutive trading
days. Holders of Series D 11

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  Continued redeemable convertible preferred stock have no voting rights except as
required by law. Series D Preferred Stock of $1,471,172 and $1,471,689 at
December 31, 2003 and June 30, 2004, respectively is presented as a current
liability because of the October 11, 2004 initial redemption date. 10. Net Loss Per Share Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the number of
weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Since the Company
has reported net losses for all periods presented, the computation of diluted
loss per share excludes the effects of convertible preferred stock, convertible
debt, options, and warrants since their effect is anti-dilutive. Following is a summary of excluded securities: For the Three Months Ended

 11. Stock-Based Compensation The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, in its primary financial
statements and has provided supplemental disclosures required by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation and by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation  Transition and Disclosure an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 123. Option exercise prices are equal to the market price on the date of grant.
In general, a portion of the shares under grant become exercisable after one
year and remaining shares vest monthly thereafter on a straight line basis over
the vesting term of the option (typically five years). Options expire after
ten years. SFAS 123 requires the disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings per
share information computed as if the Company had accounted for its employee
stock options granted under the fair value method set forth in SFAS 123. The
fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the
options is amortized as expense over the options vesting periods. Pro forma
information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2004 is as
follows: 12

Managements Discussion and Analysis or
Plan of Operation  (Continued) original equipment manufacturers, value-added resellers and computer
system integrators, worldwide. IT Services and Products This business segment includes the operations of DCi which provides
customized network support, Internet and Intranet consulting, networking,
maintenance, and disaster recovery services as well as computer and
networking product sales to Fortune 500 and 1000 companies. Customers
include financial institutions, accounting firms, healthcare providers,
pharmaceutical companies and educational institutions primarily in the
northeastern United States. Critical Accounting Policies Managements discussion and analysis of our financial condition and
results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. We review the accounting policies we
use in reporting our financial results on a regular basis. The preparation of
these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and
related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis
we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable,
inventories, investments, warranty obligations, income taxes, restructuring and
contingencies and litigation. Our estimates are based on historical experience
and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. In addition to the items listed above which are affected by
estimates, we believe that the following are among critical accounting policies
used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:  
    
    Revenue Recognition We apply provisions of SEC Staff Accounting
Bulletin (SAB) No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements as
revised by SAB 104, Revenue Recognition, SOP 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition, as amended by SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software
Revenue Recognition, with Respect to Certain Transactions and EITF
00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables to transactions
involving sales of our hardware and software products. Under these
guidelines, we recognize revenue on transactions where persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, title has transferred, product
payment is not contingent upon performance of installation or service
obligations, the price is fixed or determinable and payment is
reasonably assured. We accrue warranty costs and sales allowances for
promotional activities at time of shipment based on historical
experience. In addition, we defer revenue associated with maintenance
and support contracts and recognize revenue ratably over their term.
    
    Allowance for Doubtful Accounts We maintain allowances for
doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of
our customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of
our customers or distribution partners were to deteriorate, resulting
in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional
allowances may be required.
    
    Excess and Obsolete Inventories We write down our inventories for
estimated obsolescence and unmarketable inventory equal to the
difference between the cost of the inventory and the estimated market
value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.
If actual market conditions are less than those projected by
management, additional write-downs may be required.
    
    Deferred Taxes We record a valuation allowance to reduce our
deferred tax assets to an amount that we believe is more likely than
not to be realized. In our opinion, realization of our net operating
loss carryforward is not reasonably assured, and a valuation allowance
has been 19

Managements Discussion and Analysis or
Plan of Operation  (Continued)  provided against deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax
liabilities in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
However, should we in the future determine that realization of deferred
tax assets in excess of recorded amounts is likely, an adjustment to the
deferred tax assets would increase income in the period such
determination was made. Results of Operations Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2004 compared to Three and Six Months Ended
June 30, 2003. Net Sales.Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 increased
slightly by 0.5% to $4,822,615 from $4,796,875 reported for the same period in
2003. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased 4.0% to
$9,801,635 from $9,426,081 reported during the same period last year. The
overall increase was due principally to increases from our video communications
products and services business segment. Video Communications Product and Service Sales.During the second quarter
ended June 30, 2004, total video communications product and service sales of
$2,115,453 increased by 7.8% compared to second quarter revenues in 2003 of
$1,961,516. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, total video
communications product and service sales of $4,381,274 increased 6.8% compared
the same period revenues in 2003 of $4,102,265. The improvement was due to
increased sales from both video systems and video capture cards. For the first
six months of 2004, sales of video products in United States decreased 8.2%
over 2003 levels, while sales in the European and Pacific Rim regions improved
69.3% and 0.7%, respectively. Sales in all other remaining regions aggregated
increased 11.4% in the first six months of 2004 over the same period in 2003.
The outstanding backlog of $375,000 as of June 30, 2004 includes over $200,000
in system and software products and $172,000 in video card and codec products. Osprey Product Sales. During the three months ended June 30, 2004, sales
of Osprey® video component and software products increased 6.2% over 2003
levels. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, sales of Osprey® video
component and software products increased 2.5% over 2003 levels and represented
83.5% of total 2004 video product revenues, compared to 87.0% of total revenues
in the first six months of 2003. The relatively flat Osprey first six-month
revenues reflected a combination of increased shipments of our Osprey-500
series and Osprey-200 series product families offset by reductions primarily
from the discontinuation of the Osprey 2000 product family. The new Osprey-300, which combines the quality and superiority of the
standard IEEE 1394b card, creating a quality digital video capture card with
full device control capability, will begin shipping in the third quarter
including orders outstanding from the second quarter of 2004. The Osprey-300 is
also the first ViewCast capture card to be certified for Adobe® Premiere® Pro,
Adobes award-winning non-linear editing software. With the introduction of new
products and product enhancements and as the economy continues to grow, we
expect to continue growth in Osprey product sales during 2004. Video Communications System and Applications Software Products.During
the three months ended June 30, 2004, combined system and software sales
increased 24.3% over 2003 second quarter video product revenues. During the six
months ended June 30, 2004, combined system and software sales increased 48.7%
over 2003 levels and represented 14.7% of total 2004 video product revenues,
compared to 10.6% in the first six months of 2003. The increase was due to
sales of ViewCasts Niagara systems, which have increased during the first six
months by 68.1% over 2003 sales level, reflecting continued expansion of
customer awareness of our streaming and encoding systems and software. In May 2004, ViewCast announced the release of Niagara SchedulStream, our
new application control software for scheduling the management of Windows Media
and Real Networks streaming video encoding. SchedulStream automates both live
and on-demand encoding functions of our Niagara Streaming 20

Managements Discussion and Analysis or
Plan of Operation  (Continued) Systems for simplified operations and streamlined workflows. In addition
to automating encoding schedules, SchedulStream also integrates with
Harris/Louth media management and automation systems providing seamless
integration into legacy broadcast studio and post-production equipment.
Further, SchedulStream simplifies the digital archiving of video content on
Niagara servers by utilizing Niagara SCX encoder management software. Extra
features offered by SchedulStream include the elimination of redundant encoding
sessions using collision detection and an intuitive Web-based interface to
allow users to schedule one-time, repeat, and ad-hoc encoding and streaming
sessions. SchedulStream also provides the ability to insert metadata such as
copyright, author, and title information. In June 2004, a new ViewCast product line, ViewCast Interactive Video
Network (IVN), was announced to unite the sourcing, management, and delivery
of video within a single control environment. IVN brings diverse technologies
and components together in one simple, highly tailored solution, thereby
transforming local and global video networks into a dynamic video
communications platform. Our IVN technology offers users intuitive and
appropriate interfaces that streamline operations while addressing the demands
of even the most complex facilities and organizations. For the typical
business user, virtually any form of video communication may be integrated into
a single environment, all controlled with simple and intuitive user interfaces. Besides some economic and IT spending improvements, the second quarter of
2004 included participation by ViewCast in two trade shows which have increased
the number of bids, demonstrations and orders of our systems products. We
expect that such activity, enhanced by the new product introductions and
features during the year, should result in further increases in 2004 systems
revenue. However, renewed concerns over world events and the economy could
negatively impact or defer customer spending. IT Services and Products.ViewCasts DCi subsidiary is a provider of
professional information technology and customized network support services to
Fortune 500 and Fortune 1000 corporations, mid-sized companies, hospitals,
health care facilities and financial institutions primarily in the northeastern
United States. During the second quarter of 2004, IT services and product
sales decreased 4.6% to $2,722,699 from the $2,854,243 reported in the
comparable 2003 period. IT services and product sales totaled $5,437,466 for
the six months ended June 30, 2004, a slight increase of 1.8% over the first
six months of 2003. The decrease during the second quarter was primarily due
to lower product sales than the prior year. During the quarter and six months ending June 30, 2004, service fees
provided 85.3% and 84.5%, respectively, of the IT service and product revenues
while product sales provided the remainder. During the quarter and six months
ending June 30, 2003, service fees provided 81.7% and 85.2%, respectively, of
the IT service and product revenues while product sales provided the remainder. As budgetary spending progresses during the remainder of 2004, IT service
revenue and related product sales should increase from additional customer
projects. Other Revenues.Other video product and service revenues consist of
software maintenance, training, engineering consulting fees and professional
services and represented 0.8% of consolidated revenues for the six months ended
June 30, 2004. For the quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2004 other
revenues totaled $43,144 and $79,381, respectively, a slight decrease over for
the quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2003 of $49,027 and $100,427,
respectively. Cost of Sales and Gross Margins.Cost of sales totaled $2,890,970 for the
quarter ended June 30, 2004, a 1.8% increase from the $2,840,828 reported for
the same period in 2003. Gross profit margin for the quarter ended June 30,
2004 was $1,931,645 or 40.1% compared to $1,956,047 or 40.8% in 2003. The
video products segments margin for the second quarter of 2004 was 61.0%
compared to 61.1% in 2003 and contributed 66.8% of the 2004 gross margin
compared to 61.2% of the second quarter gross margin in 2003. The IT services
and products margin for the second quarter of 2004 was 23.6% a decline compared 21

ViewCast.com, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Managements Discussion and Analysis or
Plan of Operation  (Continued) to 26.6% in 2003 due to lower margins from service sales. The IT services
and products segment contributed 33.2% of the 2004 gross margin compared to
38.8% of the second quarter gross margin in 2003. Cost of sales totaled $5,900,330 for the six months ended June 30, 2004,
an 8.0% increase from the $5,461,622 reported for the same period in 2003.
Gross profit margin for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $3,901,305 or
39.8% compared to $3,964,459 or 42.1% in 2003. The video products segments
margin for the first six months of 2004 was 61.6% compared to 61.8% in 2003 and
contributed 69.2% of the 2004 gross margin compared to 63.9% of the gross
margin in the same period in 2003. The IT services and products margin for the
first six months of 2004 was 22.1% a decline compared to 26.8% in 2003 due to
lower margins from service and product sales. The IT services and products
segment contributed 30.8% of the 2004 gross margin compared to 36.1% of the
first six months gross margin in 2003. We expect future margins for IT services and products to average in the
20%-30% range compared to the video products segments historical margins in
the 50%-60% range. Margins will be affected quarter to quarter by promotional
activities, price adjustments, cost of materials, inventory obsolescence, the
introduction of new products and the sales mix between products and services in
any one reporting period. Selling, General and Administrative Expense.Selling, general and
administrative (SG&A) expenses for the three and six months ended June 30,
2004 totaled $1,773,714 and $3,456,623, respectively, an increase from the
$1,745,388 and $3,431,792, respectively, reported last year for the same
periods. The increase reflects the additional sales and marketing activities
and personnel for the video products segment during the second quarter of 2004
offset by lower expenses in finance, administration and support. ViewCast
participated in two major tradeshows during the second quarter of 2004 compared
to one in the prior year in line with our goals of developing further revenue
growth and market awareness. Research and Development Expense.Research and development expense for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2004 totaled $511,803 and $936,936,
respectively, a decrease of 13.4% and 30.5% over 2003 levels, reflecting a
decrease in personnel and related expenses compared to the first half of 2003.
There were no material research and development expenses associated with DCi
operations during the first six months of 2003 and 2004. Although expenses
have been reduced, we have continued to develop new products and features being
released throughout 2004 targeting current and expanded market opportunities.
ViewCasts emphasis in development has become focused on customer applications
combined with technological innovation. We expect such an approach provides
more efficient and effective development in relation to the market and our
products. Other (Income) Expense. Total other (income) expense for the second
quarter of 2004 totaled $1,429,553 compared to $250,526 in 2003, and for the
six months ended June 30, 2004 totaled $1,650,739 compared to $482,762 in 2003. Other (Income) Expense had a significant increase in expense recognition
due to a one-time charge for debt conversion expense. During the quarter ended
June 30, 2004, ViewCast recognized a non-cash debt conversion charge of
$1,233,723 related to the conversion of $870,000 principal amount of
outstanding 7% convertible debentures to common stock and warrants of ViewCast.
The non-cash charge was recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 84, Induced
Conversions of Convertible Debt. In Other Income (Expense), the Company has
recognized an imputed amount for debt conversion expense equal to the fair
value of all securities and other consideration transferred in the transaction
in excess of the fair value of securities issuable pursuant to the original
conversion terms. This conversion transaction results in a net reduction in
convertible debt and an increase in net equity of $870,000. The debt conversion
expense is a non-cash charge and is a reconciling adjustment in calculating net
cash used in operating activities. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements for further details regarding this transaction. Interest expense during the second quarter of 2004 and 2003 was $203,927
and $255,658, respectively, representing interest primarily from our
stockholder debt, debentures, DCis line-of-credit financing and 22

Managements Discussion and Analysis or
Plan of Operation  (Continued) amortization of related issue costs. Interest expense during the first
six months of 2004 and 2003 was $423,847 and $488,285, respectively. Interest
expense during the second quarter and first six months of 2004 has decreased
over 2003 levels by 20.2% and 13.2%, respectively, principally due to interest
rate reductions through amendments to our stockholder debt and DCis line of
credit facility with Keltic Financial Partners, LP. Net Loss.Net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 was
$1,883,501 and $2,345,990, respectively. Net Loss was substantially affected
by an increase in expense recognition due to a one-time charge for debt
conversion expense. Excluding the non-cash debt conversion expense of
$1,233,723 described above, net loss for the three and six months ended June
30, 2004 would have been $649,778 and $1,112,267, respectively, representing a
17.5% improvement compared to the second quarter 2003 loss of $787,162 and a
30.8% improvement over the $1,608,356 loss reported for the first six months of
2003. ViewCast has had an overall improvement in revenues and reduced
operating expenses associated with our video products business segment. Liquidity and Capital Resources ViewCasts primary sources of funds for conducting its business activities
are derived from sales of its products and services, from its credit facilities
and from the placement of its equity securities with investors. ViewCast
requires working capital primarily to increase inventories and accounts
receivable during sales growth, develop products, service debt, purchase
capital assets, fund operations and strategic acquisitions. Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30,
2004 totaled $346,944 due principally to the net loss of $2,345,990 offset by
non-cash operating expenses of $1,701,849 and net changes in operating assets
and liabilities of $297,197. Compared to the six months ended June 30, 2003,
the net cash used in operating activities for the first six months ended June
30, 2004 improved by $644,105 substantially due to reduction in the net
operating loss. Cash utilized for investing activities during the six months ended June
30, 2004 totaled $289,714 and included purchases of services assets of $102,158
to support new and existing IT service contracts, purchases of $93,548 for
computer equipment, test equipment, and leasehold improvements to support all
product lines, and purchases of $94,690 for capitalized software development
associated with ViewCasts IVN product line. These uses were offset by proceeds
from the disposition of assets of $682. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, ViewCasts financing activities
provided cash of $723,933 principally from short-term borrowings under
ViewCasts stockholder line of credit facility of $855,000 and proceeds from
the sale of common stock and exercise of stock options of $5,100. These
proceeds were offset by repayment of 7% Debentures, Keltic debt and other
short-term and long-term debt totaling $136,137. Since October 1998, ViewCast has maintained a working capital line of
credit facility with an entity controlled by one of its principal stockholders,
Mr. H.T. Ardinger, who also currently serves as Chairman of the Board of
Directors of ViewCast. Prior to October 15, 2003, availability of funds under
this facility was subject to certain borrowing base limitations based
principally on qualifying accounts receivable and inventory with interest
payable on demand at 12% and secured by the assets of ViewCast.com, Inc. In
October 2003, ViewCast.com, Inc., Osprey Technologies, Inc. and VideoWare, Inc.
(jointly and severally, the Borrower) amended the terms and conditions of
this credit note and security agreement with the Ardinger Family Partnership,
LTD. (Lender). As of the date of the agreement, the outstanding principal
balance of the indebtedness under the original loan agreement was $7,509,582
and accrued and unpaid interest thereon was $1,243,665. Additionally, in
October of 2003 ViewCast had outstanding $500,000 in advances from Lender for
the purchase of DCi in October 2002. Effective October 15, 2003, the terms and
conditions of the note agreement were amended to establish a long-term payout
for $6,909,582 principal 23

amended the terms and conditions of the credit facility to increase the credit
line of the revolving credit note to $2.25 million and extended the
commencement date for the scheduled payments of the term note and accrued
interest from April 30, 2004 to August 31, 2004. Effective August 13, 2004,
ViewCast amended the terms and conditions of the credit facility to increase
the credit line of the revolving credit note to $3.0 million and extended the
commencement date for the scheduled payments of the term note and accrued
interest from to December 31, 2004. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, net borrowings under the new
stockholder line of credit increased $855,000 resulting in a note principal
balance of $2,155,000 at June 30, 2004. Total accrued interest on stockholder
notes at June 30, 2004 totaled $1,662,038 of which $1,020,911 has been
classified as long-term. At June 30, 2004, ViewCast had availability under
the stockholder line of credit of $95,000 with an additional increase
of$750,000 in August 2004. ViewCast also maintains a $1.5 million asset based revolving credit
facility with Keltic Financial Partners, LP (Keltic) for working capital
support of DCi operations. Draws on the revolving credit facility are based on
qualifying DCi accounts receivable. The loan balance is reduced as cash
collections are received directly by Keltic. During the six months ended June
30, 2004, cash collections in excess of draws reduced the Keltic loan balance
to $583,279 at June 30, 2004. DCi had availability of $628,000 under the
revolving credit facility at June 30, 2004. ViewCast has entered into a
Guaranty of Payment and a Performance and Subordination Agreement with Keltic
relating to this facility. In April 2004, ViewCast received Notices of Conversion from the holders
of $870,000 of the outstanding 7% Senior Convertible Debentures. The terms of
the conversion include a lowered conversion price of the Debentures from $5.00
to $0.41 per share of ViewCast common stock or a total of 2,121,947 shares of
common stock for the $870,000 converted. Each Debentureholder that converted
its Debentures also received in cash the interest accrued under the terms of
the Debenture for the period of time from November 2, 2003 through April 28,
2004 in the amount of $35.00 per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures
converted, which would otherwise, pursuant to the terms of the Debentures, be
forfeited upon conversion. In addition, the converting Debentureholders
received 635,970 warrants exercisable for three (3) years into shares of common
stock of ViewCast (the Warrant Shares) at an exercise price of $0.45 per
Warrant Share, and in connection therewith, were granted certain piggyback
registration rights for the Warrant Shares. In conjunction with the debenture
conversions, ViewCast has agreed to pay a consulting fee consisting of
hourly fees of $7,000, payable in cash or restricted stock at ViewCasts
option, and of warrants exercisable into 15,000 shares of common stock with the
same terms as the warrants issued to the converting Debentureholders. This
conversion transaction results in a net reduction in convertible debt and an
increase in net equity of $870,000. During the quarter ended June 30, 2004,
ViewCast recognized a non-cash debt conversion charge of $1,233,723 related to
this transaction that is more fully described in Note 8 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements. At June 30, 2004, ViewCast had 3,799,680 public and public equivalent
warrants and 122,500 representative warrants outstanding and exercisable at
$1.00. The warrants are redeemable by ViewCast under certain conditions. At June 30, 2004, ViewCast had a consolidated stockholders deficit of
$7,488,692, and in accordance with Delaware law, was precluded from paying
dividends on its outstanding Series B and Series C convertible preferred stock.
As a result, no preferred stock dividends have been declared or paid during
2004. The Series B and Series C preferred stock issues carry cumulative
dividends of 8% and 9% per year, respectively, and are generally payable
semi-annually in arrears in cash or in ViewCast common stock, at 24

Managements Discussion and Analysis or
Plan of Operation  (Continued) ViewCasts option. Cumulative dividends in arrears on preferred shares
are approximately: Series B-$1,600,000, Series C-$448,000. Holders of Series B
and Series C preferred stock have no voting rights except as required by law. At June 30, 2004, ViewCast had a working capital deficit of $2,865,879 and
cash and cash equivalents of $387,039. From an operational perspective,
ViewCast has reduced the amount of cash utilized in operating activities
compared to the prior year from both improving revenues and reduced
expenditures. During six months ended June 30, 2004, ViewCast experienced an
modest sales increase of 0.5% compared to the first half of 2003 and while wary
of current economic conditions, anticipates that revenues during the balance of
2004 will continue to increase over 2003 levels with growth anticipated across
all business segments. ViewCast strives for productivity and efficiency in
workforce and operating expenses. During the first half of 2004, ViewCast has
decreased consolidated operating expenses by $493,497, or 9.7%, compared to the
same period in 2003. Excluding the non-cash debt conversion charge of
$1,233,723, consolidated net operating loss for the six months ended June 30,
2004 was reduced by 30.8%, compared to the same period in 2003. ViewCast
anticipates that losses may occur during 2004, or until such time as total
profit margins from the sales of its products and services exceeds its total
development, selling, administrative and financing costs. ViewCast utilizes significant capital to design, develop and commercialize
its products and intends to fund its operating activities and sales growth
during the next twelve months by utilizing cash contributed from operations and
its available working capital lines of credit to the extent possible. ViewCast
anticipates it will require additional capital during the balance of 2004 for
working capital to support the expansion of sales channels and market
distribution, to develop and introduce new products and services, to enhance
existing product offerings, to address unanticipated competitive threats or
technical problems, to transition adverse economic conditions and to service
its debt. During 2004 ViewCast plans to improve its working capital position
by increasing sales and through other initiatives that may include raising
additional equity, conversion of debt to equity, further acquisitions and by
exercise of warrants if market conditions allow. Certain actions have already
occurred. In October 2003, ViewCast improved its working capital position by
more than $7.0 million through amendments to its stockholder line of credit and
classification of a major portion of its debt and accrued interest as long-term
and has reduced interest expense associated with this debt approximately 13.2%
during the first half of 2004 compared to 2003. In January 2004, ViewCast
engaged Rockland Capital Partners, an investment banking firm, to assist
ViewCast with the review, refinement, and implementation of its strategic
initiatives. In April 2004, $870,000 of debentures converted into equity.
ViewCast intends to continue these initiatives and discussions related to
current and potentially new debt and equity relationships. Although ViewCast
has no firm arrangements with respect to additional financing, it is currently
considering proposals relating to the issuance of equity securities in exchange
for a cash investment in ViewCast. There can be no assurance that additional
financing will be available to ViewCast on acceptable terms, or at all.
Additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our then
existing stockholders. ViewCast intends to actively pursue other strategic
merger and acquisition activities to the extent possible. In the event we are
unable to raise additional capital or execute other alternatives, we may be
required to sell segments of the business, or substantially reduce or curtail
our activities. Such actions could result in charges that could be material to
ViewCasts results of operations or financial position. At June 30, 2004, ViewCast had no material commitments for capital
expenditures. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements ViewCast does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are
reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on ViewCasts financial
condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of
operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is
material to investors. 25
