NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of PASW, INC. ("PASW", or the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2001, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2000, and the cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2000 are included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2001.

The information contained in this Form 10-QSB should be read in conjunction with audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2000 which are contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 28, 2001, Form 10KSBA Number 1 filed on April 27, 2001 and the Company’s Registration Statement on Form SB-2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 29, 1999 (File 333-75137).

Earnings per share

The Company adopted SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", during 1998. SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts, such as stock options, to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. All prior period weighted average and per share information has been restated in accordance with SFAS No. 128.

(3) Subsequent events

In February 2001, PASW entered into a letter of intent to acquire the operations of Simmons Energy Services Inc. ("SES"), a privately held Alberta (Canada) company. Under the terms of the proposed transaction, PASW will issue shares of its common stock, Series B preferred stock and Series C convertible preferred stock to acquire SES in a transaction to be accounted for as a reverse acquisition. In a reverse acquisition, SES is considered to be the acquirer of PASW and all historic financial statements are restated to reflect only the operations of SES.

In February 2001, The Russell Trust, the majority stockholder of PASW (one of the trustees of which is Glenn P. Russell, the former chairman of PASW), entered into a letter of intent to sell 2,500,000 of its 3,000,000 shares of PASW to 912502 Alberta Ltd., a company controlled by Walter Dawson, a director, officer and shareholder of SES. The Russell Trust has agreed to vote its shares, representing approximately 61% of the voting common stock of PASW, in favor of the proposed reverse acquisition. On April 30, 2001 this agreement was amended whereby the Russell Trust will sell 1,500,000 shares of stock for the sum of $1.00 and will retain the balance of its shares. It will continue to vote its remaining shares in favor of the proposed reverse acquisition.

A definitive combination agreement between PASW and SES was executed in March 2001. A term of the agreement calls for PASW to initiate a private placement offering of 5,000,000 units (the "Units") at $4.00 per unit for an aggregate offering price of $20,000,000. Each unit consists of one share of Series A convertible preferred stock (the "Series A Shares") and one-half of one warrant (the "Warrants"). Each whole Warrant allows the purchase of one share of post 1:4 reverse split common stock of PASW at $5.00 per share for a period of 12 months from the close of the offering. The Warrants are subject to redemption at $0.05 per warrant if the closing bid price of PASW common stock equals or exceeds $7.00 per share for 15 consecutive trading days. The Series A Shares are non-voting and will automatically convert into an equal number of post one-for-four reverse split common shares of PASW upon the effectiveness of a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the common shares underlying the Series A Shares and Warrants. The definitive combination agreement between PASW and SES calls for:

the issuance of 10,687,502 shares of PASW common stock (post-reverse split) for the shares of SES valued at $38,047,507, to the shareholders of SES. Of these shares, 2,251,705 will be issued at the closing of the reverse acquisition, and 8,435,797 shares will be reserved for issuance upon the exchange of an equal number of shares issued by a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary of PASW and that are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis into common shares of PASW.

the issuance of one share of Series B special voting preferred stock ("Series B Shares"). The Series B Shares will possess a number of votes equal to the number of outstanding exchangeable shares not owned by PASW or its affiliates and may be exercised for the election of directors and on all other matters submitted to a vote of PASW's shareholders. In conjunction with the Series B Shares, the exchangeable shares have the economic and voting rights equivalent to those of PASW common stock, and

the issuance of 1,017,276 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock ("Series C Shares") for the purchase of certain loans to SES totaling $3,621,500 from SES shareholders.

9

The reverse acquisition will close simultaneous with the closing of the private placement. If the private placement closes before PASW shareholders have approved the common stock to be issued in this transaction:

shares of non-voting Series C preferred stock will be issued to the shareholders of SES in lieu of shares of common stock, to be automatically converted to common stock on the effective date of the one for four reverse stock split following shareholder approval,

8,435,797 shares will be issued by a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary of PASW. These shares will not be exchangeable into shares of PASW common stock until shareholder approval is received and the one for four reverse stock split is effective,

Series B shares will not be issued until shareholder approval is received, and

The Series C Shares will not be convertible into shares of PASW common stock until shareholder approval is received and the one for four reverse stock split is effective

Following the completion of the reverse acquisition and the reverse split (and assuming the sale of the maximum 5,000,000 Units offered in the private placement), there will be 17,934,128 common shares outstanding, assuming conversion of all preferred and exchangeable shares and no exercise of warrants, of which the PASW shareholders existing prior to the reverse acquisition will own 6.9%.

At the PASW annual meeting of shareholders expected to be held in June 2001, the PASW shareholders will be voting to:

Approve the conversion of preferred shares issued to SES in the reverse acquisition to shares of common stock,

Approve the creation and issuance of Series B special voting preferred to be issued to SES in conjunction with the reverse acquisition,

Reverse split outstanding common stock on a one-for-four basis,

Change the name of PASW, Inc. to Simmons Energy Services Inc. or such other name requested by SES,

Elect three additional directors submitted by SES,

Appoint PriceWaterhouseCoopers, the current auditors for SES, as the auditors for PASW for the year ending December 31, 2001, and

Change the legal domicile of PASW from California to Nevada.

PASW has not filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to securities of PASW or its subsidiaries issuable in connection with the reverse acquisition and accordingly, any PASW common shares issued in connection with the reverse acquisition will be "restricted" for the purposes of the Securities Act until a registration statement is effective. PASW may file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission respecting the resale of the 11,704,778 shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the reverse acquisition at a future date.

On March 29, 2001 the Board of Directors announced the repricing of the Company's registered warrants (NASDAQ:PASWW). The exercise price of the warrants has been reduced from $7.50 to $1.00 per share on a pre-reverse split basis ($4.00 per share on a post-reverse split basis.)

 

10

In April 2001 the Company was notified by NASDAQ that at December 31, 2000 it was not in compliance with the Net Tangible Asset requirements of NASDAQ Market Place Rule 4310 ( c)(2)(B) in that PASW failed to have a minimum of $2 million in net tangible assets. At the same time PASW was notified that in light of the "going concern" opinion from our auditors we may not be able sustain compliance with the continued listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market. At March 31, 2001 PASW is still not in compliance with either rule.

General

The Company was incorporated in California in November 1992 as a developer and licensor of Internet and Web related software and software development tools. Our operations are conducted principally from an office in Southern California and we have a sales office in Japan. The Company completed an initial public offering of 950,000 units consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant on July 29, 1999. An additional 142,500 units representing the underwriter’s overallotment was sold on September 13, 1999.

The Company has historically developed and licensed software which enabled Internet and web based communications. Our software products were embedded into systems and information appliances" developed or manufactured by others. Information appliances are internet-connected versions of every day products such as telephones, fax machines, personal digital assistants and other digitally based devices. We developed a proprietary Internet browser for use within independent, non Windows information appliances. The browser may be effectively placed in use without an operating system and does not require substantial amounts of memory. We began marketing the initial version of this browser during the first quarter of 2000.

The Company operates in one business segment. The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31

Three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000.

Net revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2001 revenues decreased 48% to $148,373 from $284,602 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Sales of licenses decreased 64% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 due the cessation of all revenue producing activities in the Company except sales activity in Japan which accounted for 100% of license and royalty sales.

Cost of revenue

The cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $58,567 or 39.5% of sales compared to $86,985 or 11.4% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The increase in cost of sales reflects the impact of distribution fees under a contract negotiated by our Japanese subsidiary in August 2000.

Selling, general and administrative

Selling, general and administrative expense was $(5,179) for the three months ended March 31, 2001 compared to $614,523 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The decrease reflects the closure of all operations in the Company in anticipation of the reverse acquisition with Simmons Energy Services Inc.

Research and development expense

Research and development expense was $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 compared to $205,154 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as a result of ceasing all development activities in the Company at the end of December 2000.

Depreciation and amortization

In February 1999 the Company terminated the S election and became subject to taxation at the corporate level. Had the Company been subject to taxation as a C corporation in 1998, it would have received a pro forma tax benefit of $1,099. For the three months ended March 31, 2001 the Company had no income tax liability.

Liquidity and capital resources

At March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 the Company had working capital of $117,116 and ($16,004) and cash and cash equivalents of $216,002 and $254,369.

Factors That May Affect Future Results

This report, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation, contains forward looking statements and other prospective information relating to future events. These forward-looking statements and other information are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause results to differ materially from historical or anticipated results, including the following:

We have received a Going Concern opinion from our auditors on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000. Those statements indicate that we have reported losses for our last two years and if we do not become profitable our business could be adversely affected.

We reported a gain of $70,377 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 however we have incurred losses of $2,613,101 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and $2,464,067 in the year ended December 31, 1999. We also have an accumulated deficit of $ 6,175,446 and stockholders equity of $135,603 as of

15

March 31, 2001. We can provide no assurance that we will be profitable in the future and if we do not become profitable our business could be adversely affected.

We have been notified by the NASDAQ Stock Market that we are deficient in two of its Market Place Rules specifically concerning the minimum net tangible assets required and that we have received a "going concern" opinion on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000. If the net tangible asset deficiency is not cured and we can not assure NASDAQ that we can demonstrate that we can continue operations is not cured we face delisting from the NASDAQ Small Cap Market.

In April 2001 we were notified by NASDAQ the Company is not in compliance with the Net Tangible Asset requirements of NASDAQ Market Place Rule 4310 ( c)(2)(B) in that we failed to have a minimum of $2 million in Net Tangible Assets. At the same time we were notified that in light of the "going concern" opinion from our auditors we may not be able sustain compliance with the continued listing requirements of The NASDAQ Stock Market. At March 31, 2001 we are still not in compliance with either rule.

We have entered into an agreement for a reverse acquisition with Simmons Energy Services however there is no assurance that the transaction can be completed.

A definitive combination agreement between PASW and Simmons Energy Services ("SES") was executed in March 2001, with final closing subject to approval at the PASW annual meeting of shareholders expected to be held in June 2001. In addition to approving the reverse acquisition at the PASW annual meeting of shareholders, the PASW shareholders will be voting to:

Reverse split outstanding common stock on a 1 for 4 basis,

Change the name of PASW, Inc. to Simmons Energy Services Inc. or such other name requested by SES,

Elect three additional directors submitted by SES,

Appoint PriceWaterhouseCoopers, the current auditors for SES, as the auditors for PASW for the year ending December 31, 2001,

Spin-off inactive businesses and assets currently owned by PASW to the pre-acquisition shareholders of PASW common stock

Approve certain amendments to PASW’s option plan, and

Change the domicile of PASW from California to Nevada.

The reverse acquisition agreement is subject to the completion of due diligence by both parties and stipulates that if PASW loses our listing on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market SES has the option of canceling the agreement. There is no assurance that this transaction can be completed in time to forego delisting or if the transaction can be completed at all.

We have limited resources available to continue operations unless a successful transaction is completed with a merger partner or that additional funding can be obtained from outside sources.

At the present time we have limited resources available to continue operations other than maintaining day-to-day operations without any capabilities for expansion. The revenue received from our NRCJ subsidiary is sufficient to handle only maintenance administrative operations for the Company. In the current market it is doubtful that funding can be obtained for resumption of operations of our Alera subsidiary therefore we run the risk of not being able to pursue activities that would ultimately benefit the long range strategies of the new Company created by the reverse takeover of our Company by SES.

Because our operating subsidiary depends on a small number of large orders, the loss or deferral of orders may have a negative impact on revenue.

NRCJ is our only operating subsidiary and as such provides the majority of the funds required to operate the Company. Although none of its customers has accounted for 10% or more of total revenue in any fiscal year, a significant portion of software license revenue in each quarter is derived from a small number of relatively large orders. While we believe that the loss of any particular customer is not likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, our operating results could be materially adversely affected if our operating subsidiaries were unable to complete one or more substantial license sales in any future period.

Any decrease in the market acceptance of our operating subsidiary's Internet and web products or lack of acceptance of new products would decrease our revenue.

Our future results depend heavily on continued market acceptance of our operating subsidiary's products in existing and new markets. Our NRCJ subsidiary is a distributor for products supplied by Net Silicon, Inc. Revenue from licenses of the suite of Internet and Web products and sales of services accounted for all its revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2001 and the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999. There is no assurance that Net Silicon will continue to fund the research required to keep our subsidiary supplied with state of the art products, that Net Silicon will continue the Distribution Agreement with NRCJ beyond its current termination date or that our subsidiary will have sufficient funds to properly advertise and market their product lines as an independent distributor. Any of these factors could have a material effect on our continued operations and financial results.

Because our ownership is concentrated, our officers and directors and independently our majority stockholder will be able to control all matters requiring stockholder approval including delaying or preventing a change in our corporate control or taking other actions of which individual shareholders may disapprove.

Our officers, directors and independently the majority stockholder beneficially own approximately 73% of our outstanding common stock. These parties will be able to exercise control over all matters requiring stockholder approval and other investors will have minimal influence over the election of directors or other stockholder actions. As a result, our officers, directors and independently the majority stockholder could approve or cause the Company to take actions of which you disapprove or that are contrary to your interests. While the majority stockholder has indicated his approval of the transaction between the company and SES his ability to exercise control over all matters requiring stockholder approval could prevent or significantly delay another company from acquiring or merging with us at prices and terms that you might find to be attractive.

Issuance of our authorized preferred stock could discourage a change in control, could reduce the market price of our common stock and could result in the holders of preferred stock being granted voting rights that are superior to those of the holders of common stock.

The Company is authorized to issue preferred stock without obtaining the consent or approval of stockholders. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control. Management also has the right to grant superior voting rights to the holders of preferred stock. Any issuance of preferred stock could materially and adversely affect the market price of the common stock and the voting rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock may also result in the loss of the voting control of holders of common stock to the holders of preferred stock.

You may experience dilution if we are compelled to litigate or arbitrate claims that have been asserted by Golenberg & Co. for the right to purchase 10% of the Company.

In April 1999 we were notified that a merchant banker, Golenberg & Co., has asserted rights under a June 1998 letter agreement to purchase 10% of our then outstanding common stock for $400,000. In June 1999 counsel for Golenberg & Co. reiterated this demand and advised us that these claims were being evaluated for possible legal action. Investors could be significantly diluted if Golenberg & Co. successfully brings a lawsuit against us.

Trading in our common stock and warrants may be limited and could negatively affect the ability to sell your securities.

A public market for our common stock and our warrants has only existed since July 29, 1999, the date of our initial public offering. We do not know how liquid the market for our stock and warrants will remain and if the market becomes illiquid, it may negatively affect your ability to resell your securities.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In April 1999 the Company was notified that a merchant banker, Golenberg & Co., had asserted rights under a June 1998 letter agreement to purchase 10% of the then outstanding common stock of the Company for $400,000. In June 1999 counsel for Golenberg & Co. reiterated this demand and advised the Company that these claims were being evaluated for possible legal action.

The Company is not currently involved in any litigation that is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or financial position. There can be no assurance, however, that third parties will not assert infringement or other claims against the Company in the future which, regardless of the outcome, could have an adverse impact on the Company as a result of defense costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
