The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed

ESYNCH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1--NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The primary activities of eSynch Corporation (eSynch or the Company) have
consisted of raising capital, acquiring businesses, developing and marketing
video-on-demand services and video streaming through the Internet, software
sales through the Internet, and DVD video encoding, compression and authoring.
The Company has curtailed all of these activities due to lack of financial
resources.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION - The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of eSynch and of its wholly owned subsidiaries.
All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.
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 in the financial statements
and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
INTERIM UNAUDITED FINANCIAL INFORMATION - The accompanying condensed financial
statements have been prepared by the Company and are not audited. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have
been included and consist only of normal recurring adjustments except as
disclosed herein. The financial position and results of operations presented in
the accompanying financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be generated for the remainder of 2002.
These financial statements have been condensed pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and
disclosures normally included in financial statements have been condensed or
omitted. These financial statements should be read in connection with annual
financial statements included in the Company's Form 10-KSB dated August 22,
2003
BUSINESS CONDITION - The accompanying consolidated financial statements have
been prepared on the basis of the Company continuing as a going concern. The
Company has incurred losses from operations, negative cash flows from operating
activities and has accumulated a deficit at June 30, 2003 in the amount of
$57,045,348. The Company has numerous judgments against it and is unable to pay
its current liabilities. Management's plan's are to seek a merger for the
Company and to request compromise of existing liabilities. Management does not
anticipate that the Company can obtain additional debt or equity financing.
These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded assets or amounts and
classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern.
CONCENTRATION OF RISK AND MAJOR CUSTOMERS - The Company operates exclusively in
the software industry; accordingly, segment information relating to operations
in different industries is not presented in these financial statements. The
concentration of business in the highly competitive software industry subjects
the Company to a concentration of market risk. Sales to any customer in 2002
and 2001 did not exceed 10% of total sales.
FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - The amounts reported as accounts
payable, accrued liabilities, and capital lease obligations are considered to
be reasonable approximations of their fair values. The fair value estimates
were estimated by management and were not based on comparable debt as the
Company is unable to obtain outside financing..
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - Stock-based compensation to employees is measured by
the intrinsic value method. This method recognizes compensation expense related
to stock options granted to employees based on the difference between the fair
value of the underlying common stock and the exercise price of the stock option
on the date granted. Compensation expense related to stock options granted to
non-employees is determined based upon the fair value of the stock options on
the date granted.
LOSS PER SHARE - Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing loss
before extraordinary gain and net loss, both adjusted by preferred dividends,
by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted loss per share is calculated to give effect to stock warrants, options
convertible preferred stock and convertible notes payable except during loss
periods when those potentially issuable common shares would decrease the loss
per share.
As of June 30, 2003, there were outstanding 58.2 Series J convertible preferred
shares, 18.3 Series K convertible preferred shares, 196.9 Series M convertible
preferred shares. As of June 30, 2003, there were options and warrants
outstanding to purchase 6,179,113 shares of common stock. These items were not
included in the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2003, as they would have been anti-dilutive.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS - The Company adopted FASB Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64,
Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections on January 1,
2003. Among other provisions, this statement modified the criteria for
classification of gains or losses on debt extinguishment such that they are not
required to be classified as extraordinary items if they are not unusual and
infrequent. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.
In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both
Liabilities and Equities. Statement No. 150 will require financial instruments
that are mandatory redeemable or that contain an obligation to repurchase the
financial instrument be classified as liabilities. Statement No. 150 must be
applied by the Company beginning July 1, 2003. The adoption of Statement No.
150 is not expected to have a material effect on the financial position of the
Company.
NOTE 2-ACCRUED LIABILITIES
Included in accrued liabilities at June 30 2003, are $1,645,000 in obligations
to state and federal governments for payroll taxes, from the current period and
from previous years, estimated interest and penalties owing on such tax
obligations. At June 30, 2003 the Company has accrued salaries of $ 239,923.
Some of these employees have obtained judgments against the Company for
payments of these salaries and these amounts have been reclassified to accounts
payable. Additionally, during 2001 the Company withheld 401K contributions from
employees' wages however these employee contributions were not contributed to
the plan. At June 30, 2003 amounts due to the plan were $43,467.
NOTE 3-NOTES PAYABLE
During the three months ended June 30, 2003 the Company borrowed $35,000 from
shareholders on an unsecured demand note with interest at 10%.

Donald C. Watters, the Company's former president, chief operating officer and

policy. Mr. Watters is seeking general damages of not less than $2,780,000,
punitive damages, interest, attorney's fees and court costs. Mr. Watters was
terminated by the Company for cause. The Company believes that the claims are
without merit and intends to vigorously defend the action and thus nothing has
been accrued as of December 31, 2002.

/or summary adjudication on a certain cause in favor of some of the Company's
directors and former directors including Tom Hemingway, T. Richard Hutt, James

fiduciary duty, and tortuous adverse employment action in violation of public
policy. Mr. Watters is seeking general damages of not less than $2,780,000,
punitive damages, interest, attorney's fees and court costs. Mr. Watters was
terminated by the Company for cause. The Company believes that the claims are
without merit and intends to vigorously defend the action and thus nothing has
been accrued as of December 31, 2002.

/or summary adjudication on a certain cause in favor of some of the Company's
directors and former directors including Tom Hemingway, T. Richard Hutt, James
Budd, Robert Orbach, David Lyons and Norton Garfinkle. Watters has filed an
appeal of that ruling which currently remains pending. The parties have
stipulated to stay the balance of the case pending resolution of the appeal.
