Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of NWH, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). 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 solely of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for these interim periods, have been recorded. Operating results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004.

2. Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made in prior period’s financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year.

3. Critical Accounting Policies

The Company capitalizes purchased software which is ready for service and development costs for software incurred from the time the preliminary project stage is completed until the software is ready for use. Under the provisions of Statement of Position 98-1, Accounting for the costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use (SOP 98-1), the Company capitalizes costs associated with software developed or obtained for internal use when both the preliminary project stage is completed and Company management has authorized further funding for the project which it deems probable will be completed and used to perform the function intended. Capitalized costs include only (1) external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining internal-use software, (2) payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to the internal-use software project, and (3) interest costs incurred, when material, while developing internal-use software. Capitalization of such costs ceases no later than the point which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose.

Research and development costs and computer software maintenance costs related to software development are expensed as incurred. Capitalized software development costs are amortized using the straight-line method generally over four years, not to exceed the expected life of the product. The carrying value of capitalized software development costs is regularly reviewed by the Company, and a loss is recognized if the value of estimated undiscounted cash flow benefit related to the asset falls below the unamortized cost.

4. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December, 2004, the FASB issued FASB statement No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (FAS 123R), a revision of FASB statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs accounted with stock-based compensation. FAS 123R addresses all forms of share-based payment (“SBP”) awards, including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. FAS 123R requires the Company to adopt the new accounting provisions beginning in our fourth quarter of 2005. Under the Modified Prospective Method, the Company does not anticipate recording any compensation expense at time of adoption since all options granted were fully vested.

5. Stock Options

The Company adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure an amendment of FAS 123.” This statement encourages, but does not require, companies to adopt a fair value based method for determining expense related to stock-based compensation. The Company continues to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method as prescribed under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized with regard to options granted under the Plan in the accompanying financial statements. The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FAS 123 to stock-based employee compensation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NWH, Inc. (“NWH” or the “Company”) owns and operates Electronic Network Systems, Inc. (“ENS”), a payer services organization that connects healthcare payers and providers using state of the art proprietary software and telecommunications services for most healthcare payment and insurance validation transactions. The Company focuses its efforts on the development of ENS’ business and continues its business of acquiring and disposing of interests in healthcare and other business areas.

The Company was incorporated in Delaware under the name National Wireless Holdings Inc. on August 31, 1993. The Company’s fiscal year ends on October 31. ENS’ fiscal year ends on September 30.

ENS is a payer services organization that connects payers (i.e., insurance companies and third party administrators) and providers (i.e., doctors, group practices and other healthcare providers) using state of the art proprietary software and telecommunications services for most healthcare payment and insurance validation transactions. ENS provides a state of the art technology platform for web based graphical user interfaces on a national basis, which enables its clients, both payers and providers, to comply fully with applicable regulatory requirements such as those imposed by HIPAA. ENS’ service offerings address the full array of evolving industry needs in this focused area with a complete cycle of services from a single point of entry (a personal computer in the client’s office) for both providers and payers, compatible with multiple system and database operating environments. These services include an Internet transactions portal, payer transactions hosting, electronic data interchange, Pre-adjudication software services (PASS^tm), scanning, optical character recognition and data entry of paper claims and correspondence and mailroom services. ENS generates revenue through recurring subscriptions, flat or per transaction fees and revenue sharing.

Over 54,000 providers are connected to ENS’ e-commerce and Internet services which represents a 47% increase over the prior year. Through payer arrangements, ENS also currently conducts daily paper to e-commerce claim conversion for another 185,000 healthcare providers. ENS also experienced a 32.6% increase in contracted billable provider sites over the prior year. All of ENS’ growth was obtained through internal sales versus acquisition. As of June 7, 2005, ENS was connected to over 1,200 payers, including commercial healthcare plans, managed care organizations, Blue Cross/Blue Shield plans, Medicare, Medicaid and CHAMPUS. Nearly 90% of all electronic claims received by ENS are directly submitted to contracted payers.

We focus on the current and future connectivity and transactions processing requirements of the healthcare industry. We provide healthcare providers with a secure infrastructure for web-based and private network transactions consisting of, among others, electronic medical claims processing, electronic claims tracking and patient eligibility verification. We also provide health care payers e-commerce connectivity with their provider constituency as well as paper claims conversion, pre-adjudication, reporting, education and marketing support to increase utilization of e-commerce in this industry. Our strategy for the future is to facilitate the migration of provider and payer clients from their current inefficient, non-integrated transactions processing environments to efficient, seamlessly integrated applications utilizing the transactions processing capabilities of Health-e Networkâ. Traditional applications linked to on-all-the-time Internet

capabilities or Application Service Provider (ASP) environments will be able to route real-time transactions to and from all payers utilizing Health-e Networkâ. We believe that the transition to these new levels of integrated transactions processing capabilities will drastically change how the business of healthcare is conducted among healthcare participants. We plan to continue to expand this transactions infrastructure as management believes these applications will evolve into viable and widely used systems over the next three to five years.

ENS Services – Health-e Networkâ

ENS’ Health-e Networkâ suite of services addresses all of the healthcare industry’s administrative transaction processing needs, both e-commerce and paper. As a provider of a full-cycle payer and provider e-commerce services, ENS enhances the providers’ and payers’ administrative efficiency. The service offerings range from a front-end data capture/transmission software, to advanced pre-adjudication software, to simple mailroom services. ENS currently provides e-commerce connectivity to over 1,200 payers for the e-commerce claims component of Health-e Networkâ and provides several payers with connectivity for the entire suite of HIPAA-mandated administrative transactions between payers and providers.

Health-e Networkâ includes the following:

• Healthcare e-Commerce Transactions Processing ENS delivers multiple applications that enable healthcare providers to conduct key healthcare transactions easily with many payers. ENS provides these e-commerce applications through the Internet and on multiple operating systems. ENS also delivers transaction processing capabilities to strategic partners, such as physician management software vendors which, with their own software, access payers to conduct electronic business transactions via use of ENS’ Software Developer’s Kit (SDK). ENS currently processes and routes medical and hospital claims, eligibility requests and responses, claims status, claims tracking, claim payment remittance information, reporting, referral and authorization transactions. ENS services support all of the HIPAA-defined transactions and deliver to providers various methods of conducting those transactions with payers.

• Provider Connectivity (Xpedite™ ) enables ENS to identify the paper and manual transaction volumes of a payer’s provider groups, target high paper submitters, track internal progress, and market specifically to selected healthcare transaction submitters. Based on payer specific criteria, ENS assigns different levels of internal resources to convert these providers to electronic business processes with the payer. The Xpediteä conversion program then goes beyond the sales process and combines efforts of all ENS internal departments. The purpose of Xpediteä is to connect providers on behalf of payer organizations to make the participants more efficient through e-commerce.

• Automated Document ServicesÔ (ADSÔ) provides payers the complete front-end handling and conversion (imaging/scanning) of paper claims forms to an e-commerce format. Paper claims still constitute from 55% to 60% of provider claims volume industry-wide to commercial payers. As the claims are converted to an electronic format, ENS captures the names of all paper-submitting providers in order to convert them for other e-commerce

services with the payer’s support. Utilization of Health-e Networkâ (which includes ADSÔ) provides a payer with the opportunity to have 100% e-commerce claims receipts. With ENS as their partner and core e-commerce strategy implementer, payers can increase e-commerce transactions from their provider constituency.

• Pre-Adjudication Software SystemÔ (PASSÔ) provides a single, HIPAA-compliant connectivity entry point to a payer for all claims transactions, including transactions received via the Internet, through private e-commerce networks, and received on paper. PASSä channels the claims by utilizing customized and algorithm-based logic, and conducts the vital claims processing function of provider and member matching, including real-time eligibility verification, a critical payer requirement for increased claims paying accuracy and efficiency. ENS’ PASSÔ is an open, flexible solution that is used with the vast majority of today’s payer operating environments.

• HIPAA Payer Portal and Hosting (Health-e XchangeÔ) ENS’ transactions infrastructure receives data from providers in virtually any file format and translates to any healthcare Payers’ file specifications, facilitating HIPAA transactions compliance. ENS delivers transactions compliance for Providers, Payers, and Application Service Providers. ENS provides compliance, connectivity, and routing on all HIPAA-defined administrative healthcare transactions with a participating Payer including: healthcare claims or encounter information; health plan eligibility; healthcare claim status; referral certification and authorization; healthcare payment and remittance advice; health plan enrollments; and health plan premium payments.

ENS also provides transaction hosting for Payers so they can outsource their transaction processing needs. ENS’ transaction hosting capabilities provide for compliance, connectivity, routing, and processing of the transaction for the Payer on the following HIPAA-defined administrative healthcare transactions: health plan eligibility; healthcare claim status; referral certification and authorization

• Real Time Transaction Processing for eligibility, claim status and referrals is an ENS service that provides physician practices with immediate access to participating payers plus various regional and governmental payers for determining member plan eligibility.

Gain on Securities Transactions, Net:

We realized a net gain on securities transactions for the six months ended April 30, 2004 of $558,458 as compared to no net gain or loss for the six months ended April 30, 2005, as we had already disposed of our remaining holdings of BellSouth common stock prior to the start of fiscal 2005. Under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” unrealized gains and losses related to written call options and short sales are recorded in the Statement of Income. Further, unrealized gains and losses on BellSouth common stock, are recorded through Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income and are only recorded in the Statement of Income when realized upon ultimate sale. The realized and unrealized gain on derivative transactions decreased from a loss of ($209,497) for the six months ended April 30, 2004 to no gain or loss for the six months ended April 30, 2005. The unrealized loss on Bell South common stock, reflected in Other Comprehensive Income, net of income taxes, for the six months ended April 30, 2004 was ($407,978) as compared to no gain or loss for the six months ended April 30, 2005.

Interest and Dividend Income:

Interest income increased from $134,920 for the six months ended April 30, 2004 to $153,671 for the six months ended April 30, 2005, primarily as a result of higher interest rates and changes in cash levels and our investment in treasury bills with the proceeds of the disposition of our remaining Bell South common stock. Dividend income increased from $124,571 for the six months ended April 30, 2004 to $137,551 for the six months ended April 30, 2005, due to our investment in various preferred index funds during 2005 as compared to the dividends received from Bell South common stock in 2004.

Interest Expense:

Interest expense decreased from $23,999 in the six months ended April 30, 2004 to $6,766 in the six months ended April 30, 2005, primarily due to a decrease in the average amount of debt and capital lease balances outstanding.

We realized $793,950 of other income during the six months ended April 30, 2004, which was primarily attributable to our gain on securities transactions, net, while during the six months ended April 30, 2005, we realized other income of $284,456, reflecting our interest income and dividend income, net of interest expense.

Income Before Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes:

We realized income before provision for income taxes of $663,074 for the six months ended April 30, 2004, primarily as a result of losses on options and gains on sales of Bell South stock, while for the six months ended April 30, 2005, the income before provision for income taxes decreased to $147,462. These results are primarily attributable to higher interest rates and because there were no securities transactions in 2005.

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes:

The provision for income taxes was $250,000 for the six months ended April 30, 2004, as compared to a benefit of $164,000 for the six months ended April 30, 2005. The benefit for income taxes for the six months ending April 30, 2005 includes primarily the revision of a prior year tax estimate of $206,000.

We realized a gain on securities transactions for the three months ended April 30, 2004 of $738,015 as compared to no net gain or loss for the three months ended April 30, 2005, as we had already disposed of our remaining holdings of BellSouth common stock prior to the start of fiscal 2005. Under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” unrealized gains and losses related to written call options and short sales are recorded in the Statement of Income. Further, unrealized gains and losses on BellSouth common stock, are recorded through Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income and are only recorded in the Statement of Income when realized upon ultimate sale. The realized and unrealized gain on derivative transactions decreased from a gain of $738,015 for the three months ended April 30, 2004 to no gain or loss for the three months ended April 30, 2005.

The unrealized loss on Bell South common stock, reflected in Other Comprehensive Income, net of income taxes, for the three months ended April 30, 2004 was a loss of ($505,566) as compared to no gain or loss for the three months ended April 30, 2005.

Interest and Dividend Income:

Interest income decreased from $65,105 for the three months ended April 30, 2004 to $34,015 for the three months ended April 30, 2005, primarily as a result of liquidating our investment in treasury bills in 2005. Dividend income increased from $56,035 for the three months ended April 30, 2004 to $137,551 for the three months ended April 30, 2005, due to our investment in various preferred index funds during 2005 as compared to the dividends received from Bell South common stock in 2004.

Interest Expense:

Interest expense decreased from $7,587 in the three months ended April 30, 2004 to $3,093 in the three months ended April 30, 2005, primarily due to a decrease in the average amount of debt and capital lease balances outstanding.

Other Income (Expense):

We realized $851,568 of other income during the three months ended April 30, 2004, which was primarily attributable to our gain on securities transactions, net, while during the three months ended April 30, 2005, we realized other income of $168,473, reflecting our dividend income and interest income, net of interest expense.

Income Before Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes:

We realized income before provision (benefit) for income taxes of $850,560 for the three months ended April 30, 2004, primarily as a result of losses/gains on options and short positions and sales of Bell South stock, while for the three months ended April 30, 2005, the income before provision (benefit) for income taxes decreased to $201,065. These results are primarily attributable to higher interest rates and because there were no security transactions in 2005.

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes:

The provision for income taxes was $321,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2004, as compared to $74,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2005.

ENS—Results of Operations:

ENS - Six months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to six months ended March 31, 2004:

Services Revenue:

Services revenue increased from $8,559,746 in the six months ended March 31, 2004 to $9,418,088 in the six months ended March 31, 2005 (approximately 10%), primarily due to growth in sales to providers and related payer income.

Cost of services increased from $4,493,091 in the six months ended March 31, 2004 to $4,600,800 in the six months ended March 31, 2005 (approximately 2%), reflecting costs related to increased sales to providers and related payer income which was offset by additional labor being capitalized for software development projects and lower benefit costs. Included in cost of services for the six months ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005 is amortization of software costs and depreciation of equipment of $628,058 and $658,629, respectively.

Professional Fees:

Professional fees increased from $69,800 in the six months ended March 31, 2004 to $187,700 in the six months ended March 31, 2005 (approximately 169%) as a result of arbitration proceedings with a major customer over additional business opportunities.

General and administrative expense increased from $2,084,402 in the six months ended March 31, 2004 to $2,271,441 in the six months ended March 31, 2005 (approximately 9%) reflecting business growth in EDI transactions with providers and payers and increased legal fees from arbitration proceedings. This amount excludes selling and advertising in the amount of $982,663 and $1,361,979, and includes professional fees of $69,800 and $187,700, for the six months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization:

Depreciation and amortization increased from $142,066 in the six months ended March 31, 2004 to $170,054 in the six months ended March 31, 2005 (approximately 20%), primarily due to amortization of additional software development projects.

As a result of the foregoing events, income from operations increased from $857,524 in the six months ended March 31, 2004 to $1,013,814 in the six months ended March 31, 2005. We believe ENS will continue profitable operations throughout 2005.

Interest Expense:

Interest expense, exclusive of interest payable to NWH, decreased from $16,616 in the six months ended March 31, 2004 to $6,565 (approximately 60%) in the six months ended March 31, 2005, primarily due to a decrease in the average debt and capital lease balances outstanding during the six months ended March 31, 2005. For the six months ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005, $161,418 and $120,740 respectively, of interest expensed by ENS to the Company was eliminated in consolidation.

EBITDA:

EBITDA increased from $1,627,648 for the six months ended March 31, 2004 to $1,842,497 for the six months ended March 31, 2005, primarily as a result of increased business levels. We provide EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) information as a guide to the operating performance of ENS. EBITDA, which is not a term recognized under generally accepted accounting principles, is calculated as the net income plus net interest,

income taxes (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Included in depreciation and amortization for the purpose of calculating EBITDA is depreciation of equipment and amortization of software costs. EBITDA as calculated by the Company may not be comparable to calculations of similarly titled items reported by other companies.

Interest receivable by the Company from ENS was $8,754 at April 30, 2005, for a total outstanding loan to the Company of $5,147,739, including accrued interest. During the quarters ending January 31, 2005 and April 30, 2005, $700,000 and $600,000, respectively, of the amount owed by ENS to the Company under these loans was paid. These payments are reflected in the total outstanding loan as of April 30, 2005. The outstanding balance under this loan agreement including interest has been eliminated from the consolidated Financial Statements.

General and administrative expense increased from $1,051,219 in the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $1,144,771 in the three months ended March 31, 2005 (approximately 9%) reflecting business growth in EDI transactions with providers and payers and increased legal fees from the arbitration proceedings. This amount excludes selling and advertising in the amount of $495,694 and $684,778, and includes professional fees of $35,100 and $96,700, for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization:

Depreciation and amortization increased from $76,352 in the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $85,653 in the three months ended March 31, 2005 (approximately 12%), primarily due to amortization of additional software development projects.

Income from Operations:

As a result of the foregoing events, income from operations increased from $484,129 in the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $599,687 in the three months ended March 31, 2005. We

believe ENS will continue profitable operations throughout 2005.

Interest Expense:

Interest expense, exclusive of interest payable to NWH, decreased from $8,210 in the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $3,093 (approximately 62%) in the three months ended March 31, 2005, primarily due to a decrease in the average debt outstanding during the quarter ended March 31, 2005. For the three months ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005, $81,262 and $41,714, respectively, of interest expensed by ENS to the Company was eliminated in consolidation.

EBITDA:

EBITDA increased from $871,083 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $1,024,653 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, primarily as a result of increased business levels. We provide EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) information as a guide to the operating performance of ENS. EBITDA, which is not a term recognized under generally accepted accounting principles, is calculated as the net income plus net interest, income taxes (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Included in depreciation and amortization for the purpose of calculating EBITDA is depreciation of equipment and amortization of software costs. EBITDA as calculated by the Company may not be comparable to calculations of similarly titled items reported by other companies.

Interest receivable by the Company from ENS was $8,754 at April 30, 2005, for a total outstanding loan to the Company of $5,147,739, including accrued interest. During the quarter ending April 30, 2005, $600,000 of the amount owed by ENS to the Company under these loans was paid. These payments are reflected in the total outstanding loan as of April 30, 2005. The outstanding balance under this loan agreement including interest has been eliminated from the consolidated Financial Statements.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

Certain disclosures in this document include “non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles “non-GAAP”) financial measures.” A non-GAAP financial measure is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Balance Sheets or Statements of Cash Flows of the Company. As required by the SEC’s recently issued Regulation G, a reconciliation of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) with the most directly comparable GAAP measure follows:

EBITDA:

We define EBITDA as net income plus net interest, income taxes (benefit), depreciation and amortization. We believe that the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to EBITDA is net income. In the discussion of ENS’ EBITDA above, the difference between EBITDA and ENS’ net income (which does not include provision for taxes) (i) for the three months ended March 31, 2005, $1,024,653 and $607,803, respectively, consisted of $8,116 of net interest, $339,313 of depreciation and amortization of software costs and depreciation of equipment included in costs of services and $85,653 of depreciation and amortization and (ii) for

the six months ended March 31, 2005, $1,842,497 and $1,027,245, respectively, consisted primarily of $13,431 of net interest, $658,629 of depreciation and amortization of software costs and depreciation of equipment included in costs of services and $170,054 of depreciation and amortization.

EBITDA is presented as additional information because we believe it is a useful indicator of an entity’s debt capacity and its ability to service its debt. EBITDA is not a substitute for operating income, net earnings or cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA is not a complete net cash flow measure because it is a financial performance measure that does not include reductions for cash payments for an entity’s obligation to service its debt, fund its working capital and capital expenditures, and pay its income taxes. EBITDA is not a complete measure of an entity’s profitability because it does not include costs and expenses for interest and income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Rather EBITDA is a potential indicator of an entity’s ability to fund these cash requirements. EBITDA, as we define it may differ from similarly named measures used by other entities and, consequently, could be misleading unless all entities calculate and define EBITDA in the same manner.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of April 30, 2005 we had approximately $23.7 million in cash and cash equivalents, as well as our interest in ENS. Our assets have been used for, and are currently reserved to fund development of our current businesses, acquisitions of healthcare e-commerce businesses, and development and acquisition of new technologies and businesses in other areas. Such amount, with earnings thereon, is expected to be sufficient to implement this business plan through October 2005, or for a shorter period if we determine to invest a substantial portion of our assets in major acquisitions, equity investments or stock repurchases. We actively seek to acquire or invest in healthcare e-commerce or other businesses in telecommunications, media or in unrelated areas. We may also dispose of assets from time to time. We have no specific arrangements with respect to any such acquisitions, dispositions or investments at the present time. There can be no assurance that any such acquisitions, dispositions or investments will be made.

Our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to 20% of our common stock because we believe, under current market conditions, the repurchase is a favorable investment. Through April 30, 2005, the Company has repurchased an aggregate of 418,600 shares for a total cost of $5,106,239. The repurchased shares will also be available for issuance upon exercise of outstanding options. We did not repurchase any shares in fiscal 2004 or the first quarter of fiscal 2005, but did repurchase 1,000 shares of treasury stock during the second quarter of fiscal 2005.

In each of the previous seven quarters (commencing in July 2003), the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share plus a special dividend of $0.20 per share, with each such dividend being paid in cash to all holders of record as of the close of business on a specific date. On February 7, 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share plus a special dividend of $0.20 per share. The dividend, aggregating $0.50 per share, was paid in cash on May 4, 2005, to holders of record at the close of business on April 29, 2005. On May 2, 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share plus a special dividend of $0.20 per share. The dividend, aggregating $0.50 per share, will be payable in cash on August 4, 2005, to holders of record at the close of business on July 29, 2005. The Company reviews its dividend policy on a quarterly basis.

During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, we settled our option liabilities on BellSouth common stock, sold our remaining holdings of BellSouth common stock and invested cash in U.S. government treasury bills. During the quarter ended April 30, 2004, we liquidated our investment in U.S. government treasury bills and invested the cash liquidated thereby, along with additional cash, in preferred index funds.

During the first two quarters of 2005, the Company spent $767,868 on fixed assets, including $508,042 for internally developed software and $259,826 for computer and office equipment required for increased claims processing, new payer contracts and other business growth.

Operating overhead costs of ENS have increased at a slower rate than revenue as a result of cost cutting measures and production efficiencies gained. We anticipate increased revenues in the near future. The combination of these factors going forward will improve overall profitability, allowing ENS to sustain itself on cash flows from its operations without further investment from NWH.

ENS - Liquidity and Capital Resources:

ENS’ historical losses were financed principally through equity investments by the Company and loans from the Company, and these loans totaled $5,538,985 through March 31, 2005 (including previously accrued interest that had been converted to principal). ENS plans additional investment in its technology enhancements, including further development and implementation of Xpedite^TM, its full contact management operating system; its Internet claims processing system; hosting of new HIPAA transactions; ECT, an Internet based full claims tracking system; additional payer connectivity; and enhancements to broaden the transactions processing infrastructure.

Although we believe that ENS may need to obtain additional financing to accelerate its strategic business plan, based upon existing contracts with physicians, other providers, payers and management companies and current expense levels, management expects ENS to continue profitable operations, established in the third quarter of fiscal 2001, through fiscal 2005.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ENS capitalizes purchased software which is ready for service and development costs for software incurred from the time the preliminary project stage is completed until the software is ready for use. Under the provisions of Statement of Position 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use (SOP 98-1), the Company capitalizes costs associated with software developed or obtained for internal use when both the preliminary project stage is completed and Company management has authorized further funding for the project which it deems probable will be completed and used to perform the function intended. Capitalized costs include only (1) external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining internal-use software, (2) payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to the internal-use software project, and (3) interest costs incurred, when material, while developing internal-use software. Capitalization of such costs ceases no later than the point at which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December, 2004, the FASB issued FASB statement No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (FAS 123R), a revision of FASB statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs accounted with stock-based compensation. FAS 123R addresses all forms of share-based payment (“SBP”) awards, including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. FAS 123R requires the Company to adopt the new accounting provisions beginning in our fourth quarter of 2005. Under the Modified Prospective Method, we do not anticipate recording any compensation expense at time of adoption since all options granted were fully vested.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The primary objective of our investment activities, other than activities relating to ENS and potential acquisitions, is to preserve principal and maintain liquidity, while at the same time maximizing the yield we receive from our investment portfolio.

Changes in prevailing interest rates will cause the yield on our investments and the costs of shorts and options to fluctuate. To minimize this risk, we maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents, short-term investments and marketable securities in commercial paper, non-government debt securities, money market funds, highly liquid U.S. Treasury notes and federal agency notes and other low risk investments. We view these high grade securities within our portfolio as having similar market risk characteristics. The weighted-average interest rate of the portfolio was 3.4% at April 30, 2005.

Currently almost all our revenues and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars and, as a result, we have experienced no significant foreign exchange gains and losses to date. We conduct only limited transactions in foreign currencies, and we do not anticipate that foreign exchange gains or losses will be significant in the foreseeable future. We have not engaged in foreign currency hedging activities to date.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of April 30, 2005, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management. Based on that evaluation, management has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries is made known to them, as of April 30, 2005. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
