3. DIRECTORY ACQUISITIONS

Desert Pages.  On January 14, 2000 we purchased certain tangible and
intangible assets of Desert Pages, Inc. for a total of $8.0 million.
The purchase price consists of $7.2 million in cash and a promissory
note of $0.8 million due in eighteen months, subject to adjustment based upon
the actual collections of accounts receivable outstanding as of the closing
during such period.  Desert Pages published one directory in Palm Springs,
California. Also included in the purchase are the rights to publish a second,
new directory that has not yet been published.

     Direct Media Corp. On February 15, 2000 we purchased certain tangible
and intangible assets of Direct Media Corp. for a total of $3.4 million in
cash. Direct media publishes eight directories serving southeastern Georgia
and the northeastern Florida area.  Also included in the purchase are the
rights to publish a new directory in Georgia that has not yet been published.

The acquisitions have been accounted for as asset purchases and
accordingly the purchase prices have been allocated to the tangible and
intangible assets acquired based on their respective fair values at the date
of acquisition, as follows (in thousands):

4.   GUARANTEE

     Target Directories of Michigan, Inc. ("Target"), which is wholly-owned
by the Company, fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company's outstanding
9 5/8% Series D Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007 on an unsecured
senior subordinated basis. Target is the Company's only consolidated operating
subsidiary, other than an inconsequential subsidiary which is a co-issuer of
such notes, and has no debt senior to such notes. Separate full financial
statements and other disclosures concerning Target have not been presented
because, in the opinion of management, such information is not material or
meaningful to investors. Target was acquired in July, 1998. Following is
summarized financial information concerning Target.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED)

Overview

     We recognize net revenues from the sale of advertising placed in
each directory when the completed directory is distributed. Costs directly
related to sales, production, printing and distribution of each directory are
capitalized as deferred directory costs and then matched against related net
revenues upon distribution. All of our other operating costs are recognized
during the period when incurred. As the number of directories increase, the
publication schedule is periodically adjusted to accommodate new books.
In addition, changes in distribution dates are affected by market and
competitive conditions and the staffing level required to achieve
the individual directory revenue goals. As a result, our directories
may be published in a month earlier or later than the previous year which
may move recognition of related revenues from one fiscal quarter or year to
another. Year to year results depend on both timing and performance factors.

    Notwithstanding significant monthly fluctuation in net revenues recognized
based on actual distribution dates of individual directories, our bookings and
cash collection activities generally occur at a steady pace throughout the
year. The table below demonstrates that quarterly bookings, collection of
advance payments and total cash receipts, which includes both advance payments
and collections of accounts receivable, vary less than our net revenues or
EBITDA:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                            ---------------------------------------------------------------
                                1999        1999         1999         1999         2000

Net revenues ...............  $  31.5      $  34.1      $  38.2      $  42.6      $  34.9
EBITDA (a) .................  $   8.2      $  11.0      $  12.0      $  15.5      $   8.5
Bookings (b) ...............  $  28.6      $  32.1      $  37.8      $  35.1      $  34.9
Advance payments ...........  $  14.4      $  15.7      $  17.6      $  18.7      $  17.0
Total cash receipts (c) ....  $  25.4      $  28.3      $  32.6      $  34.6      $  34.3
</TABLE>

(a) "EBITDA" is defined as income (loss) before extraordinary item plus
    interest expense, and depreciation and amortization and is consistent
    with the definition of EBITDA in the indentures relating to the
    company's notes and in the company's senior credit facility. EBITDA
    is not a measure of performance under generally accepted accounting
    principles (GAAP). EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a
    substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities and other
    income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as
    a measure of profitability or liquidity. However, management has included
    EBITDA because it may be used by
    certain investors to analyze and compare companies on the basis of
    operating performance, leverage and liquidity and to determine a company's
    ability to service debt. The company's definition of EBITDA may not be
    comparable to that of other companies.

(b) "Bookings" is defined as the daily advertising orders received from
    accounts during a given period and generally occur at a steady pace
    throughout the year. Bookings generated by predecessor owners of acquired
    directories are excluded.

(c) Total cash receipts includes both advance payments and collections of
    accounts receivable.

(a)  For a definition of "EBITDA" see the immediately preceding section.

(b)  "EBITDA Margin" is defined as EBITDA as a percentage of net revenues.
     Management believes that EBITDA margin provides a valuable indication
     of the company's ability to generate cash flows available for debt
     service.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
     MARCH 31, 1999

     Net revenues increased $3.4 million, or 10.9%, from $31.5 million in the
three months ended March 31, 1999 to $34.9 million in the same period in
2000. We published 51 directories in the three months ended March 31, 2000
compared to 43 in the same period in 1999. The net revenue growth was due to
$3.7 million from nine new directories, $5.3 million from nine directories
for which the publication date moved into the period and growth in the same 33
directories published during both periods of $1.8 million; offset by $7.4
million of net revenues associated with ten directories published in the
three months ended March 31, 1999 but not in the same period in 2000.

     As a result of a combination of factors, including the addition of new
customers, price increases, increases in the amount of advertising by current
customers and new directory features such as colorization of ads, additional
ad sizes and additional headings, our same book revenue growth for the 33
directories published in both periods was 7.6%.

     Cost of revenues increased $0.9 million, or 14.7%, from $6.1 million in
the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $7.0 million in the same period
in 2000. The increase was the result of $1.1 million of costs associated with
nine new directories published in the three months ended March 31, 2000, and
$1.1 million in costs associated with nine directories published in the three
months ended March 31, 2000, but not in the same period in 1999; offset by $1.5
million of costs associated with ten directories published during the three
months ended March 31, 1999, but not in the same period in 2000. Production
support costs increased $0.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000
due to the directories acquired over the past twelve months.

     As a result of the above, gross profit increased $2.5 million, or
9.9%, from $25.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $27.9
million in the same period in 2000. Gross margin decreased from 80.6% in the
three months ended March 31, 1999 to 80.0% in the same period in 2000 as a
result of higher direct costs on newly acquired directories.

     Selling and marketing expenses increased $1.9 million, or 13.9%, from
$13.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $15.7 million in
the same period in 2000. The increase was attributable to increases of $0.5
million in sales support costs, $0.9 million in direct sales costs and $0.7
million in provision for bad debt (which was consistent with the increase in
net revenues), offset by an increase in recovered bad debts of $0.2 million.

     Of the increase in sales support costs of $0.5 million, $0.3 million was
due to sales offices acquired since the first quarter of 1999 and $0.2 million
was due to general increase in costs associated with personnel and other costs
associated with our field sales offices. The increase in direct sales costs of
$0.9 million was as follows: $0.9 million of additional costs were for the nine
new directories, $1.3 million for nine directories moving into the period, and
$0.2 million of higher costs associated with the 33 same directories; offset by
$1.5 million of costs associated with ten directories that published in the
three months ended March 31, 1999 but not in the same period in 2000. Direct
sales costs as a percentage of revenue for the same 33 directories published
during both periods decreased from 21.1% to 20.6% in the three months ended
March 31, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999.

     General and administrative expense increased $2.6 million, or 33.4%, from
$7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $10.3 million
for the same period in 2000. The increase is due to: amortization of acquired
customer base and other intangibles of $2.2 million, an increase in
depreciation of fixed assets of $0.1 million, an increase in incentive
compensation costs of $0.5 million offset by a decrease in professional
service costs of $0.2 million.

     As a result of the above factors, income from operations decreased $2.0
million, or 50.7%, from $3.9 million in the three months ended March 31,
1999 to $1.9 million in the same period in 2000. Income from operations as a
percentage of net revenues decreased from 12.4% in the three months ended
March 31, 1999 to 5.5% in the same period in 2000.

     Interest expense increased $0.9 million, or 16.4%, from $5.3 million in
the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $6.2 million in the same period
in 2000 due to higher rates of interest paid as a result of increases in
Prime and LIBOR rates as well as higher levels of debt.

     As a result of the above factors, net income decreased $3.0 million, or
223.2%, from a loss of $1.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999
to a loss of $4.3 million in the same period in 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.6 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2000 compared to $1.6 million provided in the same
period in 1999. The increase in cash provided by operations was primarily
due to higher collections of accounts receivable.

     Net cash used by investing activities was $11.0 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2000, as compared to $28.6 million in the same period
in 1999. Investing activities consist primarily of cash used to acquire
directories. In the three months ended March 31, 2000 $10.0 million was spent
compared to $28.3 million in the same period in the prior year. Acquisitions
made in the three months ended March 31, 2000 are discussed in note 3 of the
financial statements included in this Form 10-Q.

     Net cash provided by financing activities was $9.3 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to $15.6 million in the same period
in 1999. These amounts are borrowings for acquisitions during the quarters,
and decreased as a result of fewer acquisition during the three months ended
March 31, 2000.

     In connection with the recapitalization of our company in October 1997,
we incurred significant debt. As of March 31, 2000 we had total outstanding
long term indebtedness of $259.7 million, including $140 million of
Series D 9 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007, (excluding unamortized
premium), and $64.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the
senior credit facility, $49.8 million of outstanding borrowings under the
revolving loan facility, $4.4 million in acquisition related debt, all of
which rank senior to the Series D notes. As of March 31, 2000 the company had
$20.2 million of additional borrowing availability under its senior credit
facility.

     Our principal sources of funds are cash flows from operating activities
and available funds under our revolving credit facility. Based upon the
successful implementation of management's business and operating strategy, we
believe that these funds will provide us with sufficient liquidity and capital
resources to meet our current and future financial obligations for the next
twelve months, including the payment of principal and interest on our notes,
as well as to provide funds for our working capital, capital expenditures and
other needs. Our future operating performance will be subject to future
economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many of
which are beyond our control. There can be no assurance that such sources of
funds will be adequate and that we will not require additional capital from
borrowings or securities offerings to satisfy such requirements. In addition,
we may require additional capital to fund future acquisitions and there can be
no assurance that such capital will be available.

YEAR 2000
Although we have not experienced any Year 2000 ("Y2K") problems to date,
we cannot assure that unforeseen complications will not arise or that third
parties on which the company relies in its day to day operations will have
adequately remedied against potential Y2K complications. If computer systems
used by us or our suppliers, the performance of products provided to us by our
suppliers, or the software applications we use to produce our products fail
or experience significant difficulties related to Y2K, our results of
operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     This Quarterly Report on Form 10Q contains forward-looking statements
which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are based on
the beliefs of our management as well as on assumptions made by and
information currently available to us at the time such statements
were made. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10Q, the words
"anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intends" and similar
expressions, as they relate to our company are intended to identify forward-
looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those
projected in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could
affect our results include, but are not limited to, (i) our high level
of indebtedness; (ii) the restrictions imposed by the terms of our
indebtedness; (iii) the turnover rate amongst our account executives;
(iv) the variation in our quarterly results; (v) risks related to the fact
that a large portion of our sales are to small, local businesses; (vi) our
dependence on certain key personnel; (vii) risks related to the acquisition
and start-up of directories; (viii) risks related to substantial competition
in our markets; (ix) risks related to changing technology and new product
developments; (x) the effect of fluctuations in paper costs; (xi) the
sensitivity of our business to general economic conditions.

ITEM 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     We are exposed to interest rate risk in connection with the term loan and
and the revolving loans outstanding under our senior credit facility, which
bear interest at floating rates based on LIBOR or the prime rate plus an
applicable borrowing margin.  As of March 31, 2000 there was approximately
$64.0 million outstanding under the term loan (at an interest rate of 8.25% at
such time) and $49.8 million outstanding under the revolving loans (at the
LIBOR rate of 8.0% at such time).  Based on such balances, an immediate
increase of one percentage point in the applicable interest rate would cause
an increase in interest expense of approximately $1.1 million on an annual
basis.  We do not attempt to mitigate this risk through hedging transactions.
All of our sales are denominated in U.S. dollars, thus we are not subject to
any foreign currency exchange risks.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     We are a party to various litigation matters incidental to the conduct of

on our financial condition or the results of our operations.
