                                INTERACTIVE INC.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


Note 1.     Interim Financial Statements

The financial information presented has been prepared from the books and
records without audit but, in the opinion of management, includes all
adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a
fair presentation of the financial information for the periods presented.  The
results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 1997, are not
necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire year.


Note 2.     Income Taxes

The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes on October 1, 1993.  Statement 109 requires that
deferred taxes be recorded on a liability method and adjusted when new tax
rates are enacted.  There was no effect to the Company's financial statements
as a result of adopting Statement 109.

At December 31, 1997, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward for
tax purposes of approximately $7,420,000.  For financial reporting purposes,
the operating loss carryforward is approximately $9,430,000, which represents
the amount of future tax deductions for which a tax benefit has not been
recognized in the financial statements.  No deferred asset has been recorded
for the benefit of the net operating loss or any other temporary differences
as the related valuation allowance would be equal to the net deferred tax
asset.

Note 3.     Loss Per Common and Common Equivalent Share

The loss per common and common equivalent share has been computed using the
weighted average of the number of shares outstanding for the three months
ended December 31, 1997 and 1996.  The weighted number of common and common
equivalent shares outstanding for the three months ended December 31, 1997 and
1996 are 3,156,291 and 3,123,109 respectively.  The loss per common and common
equivalent share assuming full dilution is the same as the loss per common and
common equivalent share since the convertible preferred stock, convertible
notes and common stock options and warrants have not been included in the
computation as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Note 4.      Stock Options and Warrants

The Company has a plan to grant incentive stock options to employees and non-
statutory stock options to other individuals who provide services to the
Company.  All options granted are at the discretion of the Board of Directors
and vest with the option holder over a 36 or 48 month period of continuous
service to the Company.  The option price for all options granted to date is
established by the board of Directors.  The exercise price for options granted
to an optionee who owns stock greater than 10% of the total voting power of
all classes of stock of the company shall be 110% of the fair market value of
the stock on the date the option is granted.  The Company has 133,333 shares
of common stock reserved for options as of December 31, 1997.  The following
details the stock options issued and outstanding as of December 31, 1997.

Note 5.     Bank Line of Credit

The Company has a line-of-credit aggregating $213,500 from a bank.  At
December 31, 1997 the agreement with the bank allowed up to a total of
$213,500 to be borrowed under this line-of-credit.  The line is at a variable
interest rate of .75% over the banks commercial base rate (10.43% at December
31, 1997), with interest on the outstanding balance due monthly.  The Company
has been unable to make the monthly interest payments, but is accruing the
interest.  The line is secured by substantially all of the assets of the
Company.

Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
            Results of Operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company is delinquent on its interest payments on its bank line of
credit, its subordinated long term notes, most of its leases and most of its
trade accounts payable.  The Company has several judgments against it and
several more threatened as a result of its inability to pay its obligations to
its unsecured trade creditors.  The judgments are all from unsecured creditors
which the Company is no longer using for ongoing operations and the Company
does not intend to pay these unsecured debts until its obligations to its
secured creditors are satisfied.  The Company currently feels that the best
possibility it has available to repay its secured and unsecured creditors and
to return value to its stockholders is to continue to operate the Company and
to work out long term payment plans if it is able to do so in the future. 
While the Company does not expect that it will be forced into bankruptcy by
its secured or unsecured creditors, there can be no assurance that this will
not happen because of the Company's inability to meet its obligations to its
creditors.  The Company believes that a liquidation of its assets would only
satisfy a small portion of the Company's obligations to its secured creditors
and provide nothing for the Company's unsecured creditors or its stockholders.

The Company's inventory of SoundXchange hardware, which, as of December 31,
 1997, accounted for approximately 72.9% of the Company's current assets, is
liquid only to the extent of the Company's sales of such product.  The Company
 has made minor engineering changes in the product in order to be able to
utilize the inventory for newly developing markets and the Company hopes to
continue to be able to do so in the future. Although there can be no guarantee
that this will increase sales of the SoundXchange hardware, the Company
believes that an increase in sales will occur allowing the Company to reduce
its inventory of SoundXchange hardware at a profit.

The Company was also unable to pay its auditors in order to have audited
financial statements for the years ended September 30, 1994, 1995, 1996 and
1997.  The absence of audited financial statements may jeopardize the ability
of the Company to continue as a reporting company and may jeopardize the
ability for the Company's stock to continue to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board.

Results of Operations

     Revenue.  Net sales for the three months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996
were $11,273 and $28,723, respectively. The Company's decrease in sale is
attributable mainly to less demand for its SoundXchange Models A, B and BX. 

     Gross Profit.  The gross margin for the three months ended December 31,
1997 was approximately 56%, up from a gross margin of 46% for the three months
ended December 31, 1996.  The increase from the previous year is due primarily
to the higher gross profit margin realized from modifications to the Company's
product line.
 10
     Sales and marketing expenses.  Sales and marketing expenses for the three
months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 were $11,000 and $19,000, respectively.

     Research and development.  Research and development expenses were 0 for
the three months ended December 31, 1997.  The Company does not have any
employees currently engaged in research, product development and engineering,
but the Company currently has access, through a temporary consulting
arrangement with Torrey Pines Research (TPR), to former key research and
development employees who are now employees of TPR.  Although TPR is a
stockholder of InterActive, and TPR has performed as a strategic partner in
past development efforts of InterActive, there can be no assurance that TPR
will in the future  provide InterActive consulting services because of
InterActive's current inability to pay for these consulting services.  Amounts
capitalized in connection with software development for the three months ended
December 31, 1997 and 1996 were $0.  Software development amortization expense
for the three months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 were $0 and $7,100,
respectively.  The Company believes that ongoing modifications to the Company's
SoundXchange products is important to the long term viability of such products
and the future revenues of the Company.

     General and administrative.  General and administrative expenses for the
three months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 were $1,000 and $4,000,
respectively.

     Depreciation and Amortization.  Depreciation and amortization expenses for
the three months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 were $5,000 and $26,000,
respectively.  

     Nonoperating Income (Expense).  Nonoperating income (expense) for the
three months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 were $(6,000) and $(7,000),
respectively.

     Net Loss.  The Company suffered a net loss for the three months ended
December 31, 1997 of $17,000 or $0.01 per share on 3,156,291 weighted average
shares outstanding compared to a net loss for the three months ended December
31, 1996 of $43,000 or $0.01 per share on 3,123,109 weighted average shares
outstanding.

     Management believes that the largest challenges that the Company will
continue to confront during 1998 are to obtain adequate financing and in
achieving positive cash flow and profitability.  While the Company is
optimistic about the possibility of its overcoming these challenges and
achieving its goals, there can be no assurance that it will be able to
achieve any or all of its objectives.

                            PART II     OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.

     The Company has several judgments against it and several more threatened
as a result of its inability to pay its obligations to its unsecured trade
creditors.  The judgments are all from unsecured creditors which the Company
is no longer using for on going operations and the Company does not intend to
pay these unsecured debts until its obligations to its secured creditors are
satisfied.

     The Company currently feels that the best possibility it has available to
repay its secured and unsecured creditors and to return value to its
stockholders is to continue to operate the Company and to work out long term
payment plans if it is able to do so in the future.  While the Company does
not expect that it will be forced into bankruptcy by its secured or unsecured
creditors, there can be no assurance that this will not happen because of the
Company's inability to meet its obligations to its creditors.  The Company
believes that a liquidation of its assets would only satisfy a small portion
of the Company's obligations to its secured creditors and provide nothing for
the Company's unsecured creditors or its stockholders.
