NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

March 31, 2011

Note 1: Basis of Presentation, Organization and Other Matters

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements as of March 31, 2011 and for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, together with the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2010, which has been derived from audited financial statements, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements include all adjustments, which were normal and recurring in nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods.

Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2011. These unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, accounting policies, and financial notes thereto included in Advant-e Corporation’s 2010 Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Nature of Operations

Advant-e Corporation through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Edict Systems, Inc. and Merkur Group, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”), develops, markets, resells, and hosts software and provides services that allow its customers to send and receive business documents electronically in standard and proprietary formats. Edict Systems specializes in providing hosted Electronic Data Interchange solutions that utilize the Internet as the primary communications method. Customers use Edict Systems solutions to connect with business partners, integrate data with internal systems, expand and manage electronic trading communities, and validate data via a hosted business rule service. Merkur Group develops and resells software, provides professional services, and provides technical maintenance and support that enables customers to automate delivery and receipt of business documents. Merkur Group provides proprietary software that integrates and connects large Supply Chain Management (SCM), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems with third party software that provides multiple delivery and document capture options. Customers consist of businesses across a number of industries primarily throughout the United States, and to a much lesser extent some foreign locations, principally Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of Advant-e Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Edict Systems, Inc., and Merkur Group, Inc. Inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U. S. 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. Significant estimates used in preparing these financial statements include those considered in the assessment of recoverability of capitalized software development costs, the assessment of potential impairment of goodwill, the assessment of the collectability of accounts receivable and the recording of prepaid software maintenance costs and deferred revenue. A reasonable possibility exists that estimates used will change within the next year.

Note 2: Software Development costs

Software development costs at March 31, 2011 and the changes during the three months then ended are summarized as follows:

Software development costs are for internal use software and for website development and related enhancements.

Note 3: Line of Credit

At March 31, 2011, the Company has a $1,500,000 bank line of credit. Borrowings under the line of credit accrue interest at the bank’s prime commercial rate, are collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company’s subsidiaries, and are payable in full when the line of credit expires on June 29, 2011. Interest is payable monthly. The line of credit is guaranteed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. No borrowings were outstanding throughout the first quarter of 2011 or 2010.

Note 4: Income taxes

Income tax expense consists of the following:

Note 5: Operating Segment Information

The Company has two reportable segments: internet-based electronic commerce document processing (Edict Systems, Inc.) and software-based electronic commerce document processing (Merkur Group, Inc.). The Company evaluates the performance of each reportable segment on income before income taxes excluding the effects of acquisition-related amortization of other intangible assets and related income taxes. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those for the Company. The Company’s reportable segments are managed as separate business units.

The following segment information is for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010:

Revenue from customers located in areas outside the United States, principally in Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico, totaled approximately 3% of consolidated revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Note 6: Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements,” which amends Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.” ASU 2009-13 amends the ASC to eliminate the residual method of allocation for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements, and requires that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of an arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method. The ASU also establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which includes: (1) vendor-specific objective evidence if available, (2) third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, and (3) estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific nor third-party evidence is available. Additionally, ASU 2009-13 expands the disclosure requirements related to a vendor’s multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The changes to the ASC as a result of this update are effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The adoption of this guidance had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-14, “Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements,” which amends ASC Topic 985, “Software.” ASU 2009-14 amends the ASC to change the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements, such that tangible products containing both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the tangible product’s essential functionality are no longer within the scope of software revenue guidance. The changes to the ASC as a result of this update are effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The adoption of this guidance had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other: When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts.” ASU 2010-28 amends ASC Topic 305 requiring an entity that has recognized goodwill and has one or more reporting units whose carrying amount for the purposes of performing Step 1 of the impairment test is zero or negative to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. The changes to the ASC as a result of this update are effective for interim periods and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this guidance had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements.

Note 7: Subsequent Event—Dividend

On May 12, 2011 the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $.02 per share, payable in two installments of $.01 each by no later than June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2011.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenues when, in addition to other criteria, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered.

Revenues from Internet-based products and services are comprised of four components—account activation and trading partner set-up fees, monthly subscription fees, usage-based transactional fees and customer payments for the Company’s development of applications designed to meet specific customer specifications.

Revenues earned from account activation and trading partner set-up fees are recognized after the Company performs consultative work required in order to establish an electronic trading partnership between the customer and their desired trading partners. Trading partnerships, once established, require no ongoing effort on the part of the Company and customers are able to utilize the electronic trading partnerships either directly with their customers or via a service provider other than the Company.

Revenue from monthly subscription fees is recognized over the period to which the subscription applies.

Revenue from usage based transaction fees is recognized in the period in which the transactions are processed.

Revenue from customer payments for the Company’s development of applications designed to meet specific customer specifications is recognized over the contract period, generally twelve months.

Revenue from the sale of software and related products is recognized upon delivery of the software to the customer when title and risk of loss are transferred. Additionally, the Company records revenue from the sale of software and related products at gross, and the related software purchases are included in cost of revenue. Customers have a 30-day period in which they can choose to accept or return the software. Historically, customer returns have not been significant.

Revenue from maintenance contracts is recognized over the life of the maintenance and support contract period, generally twelve months. Revenue from professional services is recognized upon performance of those services.

Software Development Costs

The Company accounts for the costs of computer software that it develops for internal use and costs associated with operation of its web sites in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other” by capitalizing those costs. Such capitalized costs represent solely the salaries and benefits of employees working on the graphics and content development stages, or adding functionality or features. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, overhead, general and administrative and training costs are not capitalized. The Company accounts for the costs of computer software that it sells, leases and markets as a separate product in accordance with ASC Topic 985, “Software”. Capitalized costs are amortized by the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic lives of the software application, generally three years, and are reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value.

The ongoing assessment of recoverability of capitalized software development costs requires considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors, including, but not limited to, anticipated future revenues, estimated economic life and changes in software and hardware technologies. Impairment of asset value is considered whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

8

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Management assesses goodwill related to the July 2, 2007 acquisition of Merkur Group, Inc. for impairment on an annual basis at year-end, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that may more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. Significant management judgment is required in assessing the impairment of goodwill, including the assignment of assets and liabilities and determination of fair value. Management uses the discounted cash flow method, which requires significant judgments and assumptions for estimates of future cash flows, growth rate, and useful life of the cash flows, and determination of the cost of capital. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and goodwill impairment, if any.

Revenue in the first quarter of 2011 and 2010 from the sale of software-based products and related services is summarized below:

Revenue in the first quarter of 2011 increased by 22% compared to the first quarter of 2010 primarily due to sales of software and professional services to existing customers.

Revenue from customers in foreign locations

Although the Company has no facilities or operations in foreign locations, the Company derived in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 approximately 3% of its revenue from customers located in areas outside the United States, principally in Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.

Net income

Net income for the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010 is summarized below:

Gross margin and cost of revenue

The Company’s gross margin, as a percent of revenue, increased to 60% in the first quarter of 2011 from 57% in the first quarter of 2010 due to revenue growth, reduced depreciation and amortization, and the completion of a comparatively low-margin software development contract in the first quarter of 2010.

Marketing, general and administrative expenses

Marketing, general and administrative expenses decreased by $59,644, or 7%, in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010, due to reduced personnel related expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In the first quarter of 2011, the Company generated net cash flows from operating activities of $741,298 compared to $634,316 in the first quarter of 2010. The increase was due primarily to increased net income.

The Company acquired property and equipment for enhanced infrastructure capability in the amount of $6,236 and $49,053 in the first quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company incurred capitalized development costs related to its new version of Web EDI of $40,636 and $58,609 in the first quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Management believes that the Company will have sufficient financial resources to meet business requirements during the remainder of 2011, including payment of dividends declared on May 12, 2011 totaling $1,334,452 due in two equal installments before June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2011.
