                                    PART I.

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS


THE COMPANY

     Westcott Communications, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State
of Texas in May, 1986. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to
the "Company" or "Westcott Communications" refer to Westcott Communications,
Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Company's executive offices are located Galleria
Tower II, 13th Floor, 13455 Noel Road, Dallas, Texas 75240. The Company's
mailing address is 1303 Marsh Lane, Carrollton, Texas 75006, and its telephone
number at that location is (214) 416-4100.

     The Company educates, trains and informs individuals with common interests
in selected markets by providing value-added products and services using
appropriate communication technologies. By combining the talents and knowledge
of industry experts with its creative programming, production, marketing and
satellite communications expertise, the Company seeks to produce original,
national network quality programming that meets the training, educational and
informational needs of the Company's target markets while retaining the
entertaining and visually stimulating character of consumer television and
video. The Company currently delivers programming to the following markets: the
government and public services market through the Law Enforcement Television
Network ("LETN") and Fire & Emergency Television Network ("FETN") satellite
networks, and American Heat, PULSE/Emergency Medical Update and the Government
Services Television Network ("GSTN") videotape subscription services; the
automotive market through the Automotive Satellite Television Network ("ASTN")
satellite network; the health care market through the Health & Sciences
Television Network ("HSTN") and the Long Term Care Network ("LTCN") satellite
networks, and the American Hospital Association ("AHA") and Westcott Healthcare
Teleconference Group ("WHTG") video seminar operations; the corporate and
professional market through the Professional Security Television Network
("PSTN"), CPA Report and Accounting and Financial Television Network ("AFTN")
videotape subscription services, Excellence In Training Corporation ("ETC"),
Industrial Training Systems Corporation ("ITS"), Tel-A-Train, Inc. ("Tel-A-
Train") and Safety Watch ("Safety Watch") single tape sales, videotape library
services, the Executive Education Network ("EXEN") interactive satellite network
and the Interactive Distance Training Network ("IDTN") electronic classroom
facilities; the primary and secondary education market through the TI-IN Network
("TI-IN") satellite network; and the financial services market through the
Bankers Training and Consulting Company ("BTCC") videotape library service. The
Company owns and operates all of its networks either as divisions or wholly
owned subsidiaries, except GSTN which is operated as a limited liability
partnership in which the Company is the managing partner and holds a 50%
partnership interest.

     The Company believes there are additional markets that are conducive to the
use of private satellite, videotape, computer-based and interactive programming
for their training and educational needs.  The Company seeks to identify these
potential new markets, develop programming tailored to serve those markets and
deliver that programming through these and other multimedia technologies.  In
addition to the development and acquisition of new networks and services, the
Company continually seeks to enhance the quality and variety of services offered
by its existing networks. Company specialists work with various licensing
organizations and industry leaders to develop programs and test formats
acceptable for continuing professional education, accreditation, certification
or other requirements of local, state and national boards.

     Workers in both the private and public sectors face a continuing need for
training and education.  The demand for higher standards, stricter accreditation
requirements and increased specialization cuts across professional lines, from
firefighters to CPAs, and is driven by increasing levels of regulation,
litigation and competition in all sectors of employment.  These training and
educational needs have traditionally been addressed through the use of
relatively expensive in-house training departments and off-site seminars.  These
traditional training and educational methods have a limited ability to
efficiently provide consistent, timely, high quality professional education
programs due to the time and cost of designing, implementing and travel involved
in such programs.

     Electronic communications media such as broadcast, cable television and
video interactivity have created the opportunity to dramatically change the
quality, cost and delivery of training and education services. In particular,

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
satellite and videotape technology permit the delivery of material to targeted
audiences.  Interactive capabilities increase the learning potential and
retention of the information delivered and provide a more dynamic delivery
environment.  These technologies enable expert instructors to reach a larger
audience, while providing economies of scale through a larger distribution base
and greater consistency in training.

     The Company believes that the ability of television to reach its full
potential as a training, educational and informational vehicle is dependent on
program content and production quality. The effectiveness of television as a
communications medium results from its ability to create visually stimulating
images that capture and hold the viewer's attention while conveying information.
As production techniques used in national network television have become
increasingly sophisticated, viewers have become accustomed to and expect state-
of-the art productions. To be effective, instructional programming must provide
viewers with information in a format that contains the same technical and
programming qualities found in national network broadcast television.

     The Company's business strategy is to provide quality, industry-specific
training, education and information to address the needs of selected, well-
defined markets.  The Company's business, electronic classroom and government
markets share the following characteristics: (I) an ongoing need to inform and
train employees or provide continuing education for state accreditation or
licensing requirements in a timely, convenient and consistent fashion; (ii) the
availability of highly skilled trainers and educators whose services could
previously reach only a small part of the work force; (iii) a large and widely
dispersed work force sharing common concerns and interests; and (iv) an audience
that can be segmented into one or more target audiences, each with homogeneous,
well-defined training needs and objectives.  The Company's education market has
similar characteristics but is targeted toward primary and secondary teacher and
student audiences.  The Company's management team and selected experts have
significant experience in and detailed knowledge of its selected markets,
providing overall direction to the content of the Company's programming and to
the Company's marketing efforts.

     The Company's growth strategy focuses on three main elements:  (I) the
internal development of new networks and services in existing or additional
markets; (ii) strategic acquisitions of networks and services in existing or
additional markets; and (iii) the addition of new services through existing
networks.  The Company believes there are additional markets which share the
characteristics of the Company's existing markets, making them conducive to the
use of interactivity, private satellite, computer-based training and videotape
programming for their training, educational and informational needs.  The
Company seeks to identify these potential markets, develop programming tailored
to serve those markets and deliver that programming through appropriate
multimedia technologies.  The development and delivery of new networks and
services increases the Company's efficiency through the use of existing
production and delivery capabilities.  This operating leverage is further
enhanced by the creation of programming services in markets that overlap the
Company's existing networks.


PROGRAMMING

     The Company's programming staff formats, writes and produces programs to
meet the specific training, education or information needs of its learner
audiences. The Company's producers specialize in transforming hands-on
instruction in the classroom or seminar into focused, high-quality video
presentations complete with syllabi, tests, and other appropriate collateral
materials. Program formats vary from live, interactive classes delivered via
satellite to carefully crafted videos, and interactive media - depending on the
need and circumstances of the learners. All products are held to the highest
standards for creativity, clarity and viewer enjoyment, matching or exceeding
the quality found in more broad-based network broadcast television.

     Program  Design.  The needs for individual programs are assessed by the
Product Manager of each network, and built into an annual  training and
educational curriculum designed to satisfy continuing education and training
requirements for each target audience.  Then individual programs and series of
programs are created by the producers to pre-set measurable objectives, often
tested.  Tests and other collateral material are supplied with the programs,
either arriving with the videotape or delivered in a monthly mailing for
satellite broadcasts.

     Formal Relationships.  The Company built and maintained formal
relationships with many industry associations, institutions, universities and
other entities in 1995 which have been key to the Company's programming as well
as

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
marketing efforts.  These relationships include the International/County
Management Association, the National Association of Counties, Public Technology
Inc, the FBI Academy, Drug Enforcement Administration, Police Officer Standards
in Training Commission, Northwood University, the University of Cincinnati, the
University of Dallas, International Fire Service Training Association, The
American Medical Association, American Hospital Association, American Nurses
Association, The Association of Rehabilitation Nurses, Pennsylvania State
University, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Continuing
Education Coordinating Board for Emergency Medical Services, American Industrial
Hygiene Association, International Association of Chiefs of Police, National
Sheriff's Association, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, National
Association of State Boards of Accountancy, University of Cincinnati, Joint
Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, the Food and Drug
Administration, Center for Disease Control, Annenberg Center at Eisenhower,
Emergency Nurses Association, Oncology Nurses Association, Association of
Women's Health Obstetrics and Neonatal Nurses, and Price Waterhouse.  These
groups participate in the Company's programming to various degrees, including
participation on advisory committees, recommending topics and talent of interest
to their respective industries, lending assistance in preparing program content,
and in some cases, by providing entire courses for airing on the Company's
networks.  These relationships, as well as others, assist the Company in
producing programming that features nationally recognized industry experts as
well as widely recognized in-house trainers and consultants.

     Production Processes.  The Company's producers work in teams, in which
primary responsibility is defined by market. These teams of writers and
producers handle production schedules, contracts with presenters, outlines,
synopses, field and studio production. Working closely with the programming
teams are personnel in other departments, including Production, Print Graphics,
Printing & Fulfillment, Videotape Distribution, Customer Service Center,
Interactive Education Systems, Network Operations Control and Satellite
Communications. In 1995, the Company streamlined the organizational structure
between these groups to allow better quality, more direct contact and
communication. This has fostered problem-solving and continuous improvement on a
team-to-team level, improving efficiencies and shortening time frames for
improvement.


MARKETS

     The Company currently offers services to the following markets: (i)
government and public services; (ii) automotive; (iii) health care; (iv)
corporate and professional; (v) financial services and (vi) education. The
Company serves these markets primarily through the Company's satellite networks,
videotape subscription, library services, and through IDTN and EXEN. The
Company's operations have been conducted primarily within the continental United
States. Sales outside the U.S. to date have not been material. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -
Overview" for a listing of the Company's products and services by markets
served.


GOVERNMENT AND PUBLIC SERVICES

     Many states have implemented mandatory continuing education and
accreditation or licensing requirements for their public safety personnel. The
Company believes that this has resulted in a need for employee education and
training in this market which, due to its size and diversity of locations, is
particularly suited for private satellite and videotape training services.

     The Company currently serves the law enforcement segment of the government
and public services market through the LETN private satellite network. The
Company also offers LETN on videotape services for law enforcement agencies with
fewer than 15 officers. The fire and emergency medical services segment of this
market is served through the Company's FETN private satellite network and
American Heat and PULSE/Emergency Medical Update videotape subscription
services. The Company also serves elected and appointed local governmental
officials through the GSTN videotape subscription service. The government and
public services market accounted for approximately 21% of the Company's revenues
for the year ended December 31, 1995.

     Law Enforcement.  LETN produces and delivers television programming via
satellite and videotape to subscribing law enforcement agencies.  The most
recent development for training and documentation is the LETN workstation.

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
This computer-based training system allows for group or individual training,
testing and documentation all in one convenient and efficient computer package.
LETN provides a broad range of programming covering a variety of training areas
designed to reach multiple target audiences within the law enforcement sector,
including uniformed patrol officers, traffic officers, trainers, drug
enforcement officers, investigators and detectives, law enforcement supervisors,
managers and administrators, sheriffs and chiefs.  These educational training
areas include: officer safety techniques; civil liability issues; drug and vice
operations; leadership training; community relations; patrol operations;
criminal investigation; new technologies; lifestyle considerations; and other
subjects relevant to law enforcement operations.  LETN broadcasts 24 hours each
weekday and the programming is repeated during the day in order to maximize
availability to each shift of officers in each subscribing agency in all time
zones.

     LETN's staff includes a number of former law enforcement officers, many of
whom are involved in the development of the content and design of LETN
programming and the selection of the program topics and ideas communicated to
LETN by outside professionals and experts from throughout the law enforcement
community.

     LETN programming generally fits one of the following categories: (i) "Roll
Call" programming; (ii) in-service training; and (iii) law enforcement news and
special forum programs.

     Roll Call programming is designed for viewing by officers during their pre-
shift meetings.  Roll Call programming consists primarily of short presentations
designed to deliver training, news and information addressing such topics as
officer safety, drug enforcement, legal briefs, community-oriented policing and
patrol operations.

     In-service training programming is designed to provide continuing
education, including college credit and training programs for experienced
officers. Typical in-service training consists of 25-minute segments featuring
call-in question and answer segments, product reviews, documentaries, re-
enactments and analyses of actual incidents and examinations of court cases
affecting the law enforcement community. Video of police officers in the line of
duty performing chases and handling disturbances, shootings and robberies in
progress are frequently provided by agencies for broadcast.

     LETN news segments provide subscribers with coverage of national and
regional developments of interest to the law enforcement community. In addition
to regularly scheduled newscasts, LETN covers special events such as
conventions, forums and seminars that may be of interest to subscribers.

     Many states requiring officers to obtain a minimum number of in-service
training hours each year have approved LETN's programming for this purpose.
Requirements for in-service training are generally set by peace officers
standards and training commissions ("POST"). LETN regularly contacts all state
POST organizations in an effort to keep them informed of LETN's programming and
to insure continuing approval. LETN's Training Assistance Program ("TAP")
provides individual officers with certificates of completion for a required
number of hours of training. TAP is intended to help document LETN training and
assist subscribing agencies in personnel development.

     Monthly subscription fees for LETN currently range from $228 to $628,
depending upon the size of the agency, with an average satellite subscription
fee at December 31, 1995 of $339.  These fees include installation of all
reception equipment, except television sets.  Subscription fees for LETN's
videotape service currently range from $228 to $628 per month, depending on
frequency of delivery and level of programming requested.  Fees for LETN's
workstation product include a one-time installation fee of $985 and a current
subscription price of $288 to $628, which includes the payment for the
workstation hardware and software.

     The market for LETN includes approximately 17,367 law enforcement agencies
in the continental United States, as estimated by the Bureau of Justice
Statistics, Office of Justice Programs, of the U.S. Department of Justice. This
market includes approximately (i) 15,637 city, county and state departments; and
(ii) 1,730 federal and special agencies, including ATF, Secret Service, Customs,
IRS, FLETC, FBI, DEA, U.S. Marshals, and INS. As of December 31, 1995,
approximately 1,900 law enforcement agencies subscribed to LETN.

     Fire and Emergency Medical Services.  FETN produces training programs for
fire, rescue, medical, and industrial emergency response teams and delivers the
information via satellite broadcast and videotape to subscribing volunteer and
municipal agencies, industrial facilities, and military installations.  FETN
programming is designed to offer each

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
distinct audience within the fire and emergency service such as frontline
firefighters, driver/operators, emergency medical personnel, and chief/command
officers, with a program suited to their specific emergency response
assignments.  FETN broadcasts over 80 hours Monday through Friday and the
programming is repeated during the day in order to maximize availability to
individuals in all time zones.

     FETN programming changes weekly, and is staggered each day during the week
to allow all shifts of paid personnel and all volunteer personnel ample time to
view the programming at times convenient to their individual schedules. All
programs are 25 to 30 minutes in length and most are accompanied by written
training support materials.

     FETN programming is curriculum-based using standards developed by the

department produces the "ASTN News," which features news of the automotive
industry and coverage of special events.  ASTN tape service customers receive
100 hours of training in areas of sales, management, and service operations each
year.

     The Company has established the "ASTN Academy," a service that tracks and
records the programs that members have watched.  Members call the Academy toll-
free number, enter requested information and the ASTN computers log the call,
the member and the program and continually totals the member's viewing hours for

     The Company, in conjunction with Northwood University of Midland, Michigan,
also offers college level courses on ASTN.  Successful completion of these
courses combined with previous college credit or locally available courses will
lead to an Associates of Arts degree in Automotive Sales Management.

     The Company broadcasts ASTN through its own satellite transponder and
through the GM Pulsat and Chrysler private satellite networks under agreements
expiring October 1, 2000 and June 1, 1996, respectively. ASTN is

received over those networks on equipment provided by GM Pulsat or Chrysler, as
appropriate.  The Company pays a GM Pulsat network access fee based on the
number of dealers receiving ASTN over that network and directly markets ASTN to
members of the GM Pulsat Network.  Chrysler pays the Company a fee for ASTN
based upon the number of dealers subscribing to ASTN through the Chrysler
network and in turn markets ASTN to its network members at a subscription fee
set by Chrysler.  The Company is conducting discussions with Chrysler to extend
the term of its Agreement.  As of December 31, 1995, approximately 17% and 14%
of all United States GM and Chrysler dealers, respectively, subscribed to ASTN
through these agreements, which dealers represent approximately 59% and 27%
respectively, of all ASTN subscribers.

     Retail subscription fees for ASTN currently range from $265 to $330 per
month. Because of the Company's agreement with Chrysler described above, the
average monthly fee received by the Company at December 31, 1995, was $261. The
monthly ASTN subscription fee includes the installation of all equipment,
excluding television sets, required to enable the subscriber to receive ASTN
programming at sites other than GM or Chrysler dealerships.

     The market for ASTN consists primarily of dealerships of new automobiles
and trucks in the continental United States. According to Automotive News, as of

per enrollment, and half those amounts for one-semester classes.  TI-IN has
approximately 6,000 enrollments in its high school classes for the 1995-1996
school year.

     Fees for elementary/middle school classes currently range from
approximately $2,000 to $4,000, depending on the class selection desired. TI-
IN's elementary and middle school classes are offered on an unlimited
participation basis per school.

     The market for TI-IN includes approximately 100,000 public and private
kindergarten through 12th grade schools in the United States.  As of December
31, 1995, approximately 1,186 high schools and 896  elementary and middle
schools were subscribers to TI-IN.

SALES AND MARKETING

     The Company markets its networks primarily by telephone sales, supplemented
by targeted media advertising and participation in trade shows. Sales efforts
are directed at the management level or other appropriate contact, such as the
directors of training with potential subscriber. The Company's telephone sales
staff uses outbound telephone sales techniques to contact potential subscribers.
After making an initial telephone contact, the Company sends a package of
materials usually via overnight courier to each prospective subscriber. This
package includes a videotape describing the network and the Company's services,
a sample programming guide and appropriate subscription agreements. Each
satellite network or videotape service has a distinct telephone sales force
trained specifically for its market. The sales force for start-up satellite
networks and videotape services is staffed in part by experienced members of the
Company's existing sales forces.

     In addition to its telephone sales staff, TI-IN currently employs four
field sales representatives who live in various parts of the continental United
States. These field representatives not only contact potential subscribers via
the telephone, but they also personally visit the potential subscribers at their
places of business.

     The Company markets IDTN and EXEN primarily with account managers rather
than telephone sales staff, due to the generally large financial commitments
made by these customers. These account managers contact potential subscribers
and personally visit the potential subscribers at their place of business, and
provide ongoing support to the customer until the contract is fulfilled.

     In regard to renewals of existing subscribers' contracts, the Company's
networks utilize marketing personnel specifically dedicated to contacting these
subscribers.  These marketing employees attempt to obtain renewal contracts from
the subscribers before the expiration of their existing contracts in order to
avoid any break in satellite, teleconference or videotape service.

     Many of the Company's videotape networks facilitate the marketing of single
tape sales by offering customers a preview tape for a limited period at little
or no charge.  Should the tape meet the customer's training needs, it is
converted to a sale.  If not, the customer is responsible for returning all
materials by traceable carrier.  Tapes and workbooks not returned are billed at
the full catalog list price.

     A strong link is maintained between programming, marketing and customer
service to ensure programming needs of subscribers are considered in all aspects
of the Company's networks and videotape services.


CUSTOMER SUPPORT CENTER

     The Customer Service Center ("CSC") is one of several customer-driven
divisions within the Company.  It is operated under the philosophy that meeting
the needs of the Company's existing and potential customers is the primary
consideration in all decisions and practices.  This group receives virtually all
incoming calls to the networks which are not placed to a specific individual,
and each Customer Service Representative is trained and empowered to handle a
variety of customer questions and requests, on subjects as wide-ranging as
technical assistance with satellite reception to information about upcoming
programs or content experts.  Calls to the CSC are measured and documented in
terms of time-to-answer and time-to-abandon, and the staff works toward specific
objectives in these and other areas.  The CSC staff also acts as a liaison for
the Company and all of its service departments.


PRODUCTION AND DELIVERY

     Programming for all satellite networks and videotape services is produced
primarily at the Company's Carrollton, Texas facility with the exception of the
TI-IN classes, which originate from the San Antonio production and uplink
facility.  The Company's production staff includes technical and creative
personnel.  The Company's Carrollton, Texas production facilities, constructed
in the spring of 1988, include two 3,000 square foot studios, one 900 square
foot news studio and the newest 500 square foot studio added in 1994 to
accommodate interactive broadcast productions.

                                       17
<PAGE>
 
The Company believes that substantially all equipment integrated in these
facilities represents current generation technology.

     Programs for the Company's private satellite networks are delivered to
downlink satellite reception equipment at each subscriber's location by
satellite transmission.  Each downlink is directed at the Galaxy VII satellite
in order to receive the Company's broadcasts.  Encrypted broadcasts may only be
received by downlinks equipped with the appropriate decoder devices.

     Satellite Uplink Equipment.  The Company owns and operates three Ku band
uplinks, two at its facility in Carrollton, Texas, which uplink programming for
LETN, ASTN, HSTN, LTCN, FETN, IDTN, EXEN, and ad-hoc teleconferences, and one
located in San Antonio which uplinks TI-IN distance learning programming.  Two
uplinks are configured to transmit programming using Compressed Digital Video
(CDV) technology.

     Satellite Signal.  The Company has contracted with Hughes Communications
Galaxy, Inc. ("Hughes") for satellite transponder capacity through January 1,
2002 on its Galaxy VII satellite for delivery of the programming signals of each
satellite network throughout the continental United States and southern Canada.
All daily programming is transmitted on Galaxy VII with the exception of some
ad-hoc teleconferencing which occurs through the satellite most suitable to
access the teleconference sites.

     In the event that the satellite relaying the Company's programming were to
become unavailable, use of another satellite would be necessary.  The Company is
not insured against losses which may occur if the Galaxy VII satellite were to
become unavailable, but the Company's current contract with Hughes provides
appropriate spacecraft redundancy to protect against risk within reason. Beyond
this contractual obligation, the Company believes that sufficient satellite
availability currently exists to meet its foreseeable needs.  In the unlikely
event that the Company would be forced to reposition the reception equipment of
subscribers to another satellite, the Company would incur significant costs and
a possible interruption in the Company's revenue stream.

     Satellite Downlink Equipment.  The Company's satellite reception equipment
package for its private satellite networks consists of an integrated receiver
decoder (IRD), low noise block converter, dish and nonpenetrating roof mount.
The Company does not supply the television sets used by subscribers to view the
Company's programming. Except with respect to programming transmitted through
the GM or Chrysler dealer networks, the Company generally supplies downlinks
which are installed by independent contractors.  The average cost to the Company
for purchase and installation of a downlink capable of receiving encrypted
broadcasts is approximately $2,600.

     In addition to satellite reception equipment, the Company installs One
Touch interactive keypads, a site controller, furniture and other related
equipment at each of its IDTN classroom sites at an average additional cost of
approximately $32,000. With the exception of furniture, which is provided by the
customer, the Company also installs similar equipment at each of its EXEN sites
at an average cost of approximately $11,000.

     Encryption.  Encryption greatly reduces unauthorized reception of
programming and permits programming to be customized for and directed to
individual subscribers or groups of subscribers. All networks currently are
encrypted using Compressed Digital Video (CDV), except ASTN which uses BMAC
analog encryption.


NEW TECHNOLOGY

     The Company continues to commit to new technologies that improve customer
service, add value to its products, improve the production processes, enhance
its delivery mechanisms and lower operating costs.

     Recent commitments to DVC (DigitalVideo Cassette) technology will not only
reduce the cost of TV acquisition equipment but will also improve the quality of
video through the production process.  It enables more decentralized production
thereby tending to smooth out the demand for production resources.

     After spending several months testing digital production methods at its
Carrollton facility, the Company is moving into digital video production in its
subscription networks. Creating this type of production environment follows the

                                       18
<PAGE>
 
overall strategic direction of decentralizing the process and empowering the
producer. This paradigm shift puts the Company on the right platform to produce
the training products of the future. It enables the producer to create all
elements of video, audio, graphics, text and interactivity on one workstation
with minimal hand-offs. Most importantly it allows the Carrollton production
capacity to be put to its highest and best use in producing high revenue.

     The Company is studying emerging delivery technology that will allow it to
create and sell a product that has not been feasible in the past. The massive
customization that is desirable in asynchronous, on-demand type products
requires that the product not actually be assembled until it arrives at the
point of participation. In this case the video, audio, text and interactivity
are all integrated into one homogenous body of work. The Company will also be
able to deliver more up to the minute information programming such as news. This
technology employs scalable delivery which enables a scalable product offering
allowing for a scalable marketing approach. It also facilitates massive
customization creating products with broader market appeal. Usage at a desktop
workstation allows all the advantages of newer computers to be leveraged in the
provision of an on-line, cutting edge, education, information and training
product. It also allows international sales without any special effort.

     Other appropriate technologies are being tested and evaluated to determine
their applicability in the markets addressed by the Company such as DVD (Digital
Versatile Disc) and new interactive response devices.


COMPETITION

     The Company currently has no competitors delivering daily training
programming to the Company's existing satellite markets through a private
satellite network. GM and Chrysler have their own private satellite television
networks, but the Company does not regard them as competitors because these
manufacturers market ASTN in conjunction with their networks. Lambert
Communications, Inc. ("Lambert") delivers a patient entertainment and a
physician education product to approximately 160 hospitals, but due to
differences in program focus and basis for revenues, the Company does not
consider this to be a direct competitor to its HSTN training network. The
Company does compete with a number of businesses and governmental agencies that
provide videotape training material, consulting services and instruction at
seminars, trade shows and conventions. In addition, in the law enforcement and
fire and emergency areas, television programs are offered by certain agencies on
an irregularly scheduled basis. It is possible that major automobile
manufacturers, governmental agencies, television networks or other information
service providers may attempt to compete with the Company's various networks.

     A number of companies have entered the private television market to serve
particular business or professional groups, and many large business and
governmental organizations have developed their own private networks.  The
Company believes the inherent barrier created by significant market penetration
improves the Company's competitive posture.  To the extent that networks are
established by other companies in additional markets, the Company's
opportunities for future expansion could be limited.


EMPLOYEES

     As of December 31, 1995, the Company employed 629 persons on a full-time
basis, including 179 persons in its programming, production, news and
engineering departments, 266 persons in its sales and marketing and 184 persons
in its administrative, satellite communications, customer service, tape
distribution, accounting and management information systems departments.  In
addition, the Company from time to time employs freelance labor to assist in the
production of its programming.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES


FACILITIES

     The Company's primary production facilities occupy approximately 70,000
square feet in a leased building in Carrollton, Texas. These facilities are
leased for a 10-year term that ends in June 1998. Of the total square footage of
these facilities, approximately 60,000 square feet are used for office space and
production and the remainder is used for set and supply storage. The Company
leases approximately 50,000 square feet of additional office space in Dallas,
Texas to accommodate its executive offices and the telemarketing force required
for existing networks. These facilities are leased for a term that ends in June
1998. TI-IN has an agreement through August, 1996 with the Texas Education
Service Center, Region 20 ("Region 20") in San Antonio, Texas, whereby TI-IN
programming is developed using Region 20 teachers and facilities. The recently
acquired ETC operations occupy approximately 13,130 square feet of leased office
space in Des Moines, Iowa. These facilities are leased for a term that ends in
October 1998. The Tel-A-Train operations occupy approximately 16,000 square feet
of leased office space in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The Tel-A-Train facility is
leased for a one year term, expiring March 31, 1996, with a one year renewal
option. The BTCC operation is housed in a 6,732 square foot office space located
in St. Louis. This facility is leased for a three-year term that ends October
31, 1998 with a six-month exit clause. In addition, the Company leases 50
classroom facilities throughout the United States for its IDTN and EXEN
operations. These facilities range from approximately 1,000 to 2,000 square feet
with lease terms that expire in two to four years. The Company believes that
approximately 50,000 square feet of additional space will be required to
facilitate the relocation of the Accounting, Management Information Services and
Interactive Education Services departments along with the Fulfillment and
Satellite Communications shipping operations. This move will free up needed
space at the Carrollton facility for production purposes including use by IDTN
clients. The Company is renegotiating its lease on the Carrollton facility in
conjunction with the negotiation for the previously mentioned space. See Note 7
of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding
the Company's lease obligations.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS


OVERVIEW
 
     The revenue growth of the Company depends on continued internal development
of new networks and services in existing or additional markets, the addition of
new products through existing networks, and strategic acquisitions. The
Company's long-term planning anticipates, as in prior years, activity in all
three areas. Internal growth will come from establishing additional networks
such as LTCN, IDTN and EXEN. New product offerings are expected to include
interactive products and other multimedia technologies such as CD/ROM.

     The Company's financial results are characterized by the recurring revenue
derived from the subscriber bases of networks, the relatively high cost of
producing, marketing and delivering high quality programming and the relatively
low incremental cost of supplying that programming to additional subscribers.
Internally developed networks typically incur marketing and programming costs in
excess of revenues until the number of subscriptions reaches an incremental
break-even level.

     The Company installs downlink equipment at LETN, FETN, HSTN, LTCN, AHA,
JCSN, WHTG, TI-IN and EXEN subscriber sites and at ASTN sites unless the
subscriber is affiliated with GM or Chrysler, in which case the equipment is
provided by those manufacturers. Typically, network installations are completed
within 30 days after a subscription agreement is signed. As to each subscription
for which the Company has the obligation to provide downlink equipment, the
Company has an immediate cost, including both equipment and installation, of
approximately $2,600. These costs are capitalized and depreciated over five
years. Revenues from new satellite subscribers commence when downlink equipment
is installed at the subscriber's site and the Company's signal is received. The
subscription fee charged by the Company's satellite networks is based upon a
number of factors, including the number of personnel at the subscriber location,
the number of subscriber locations and the programming ordered. For an ASTN
subscriber, the subscription fee is also dependent on whether a subscription is
sold directly or through a manufacturer/distributor arrangement. New satellite
network subscriptions adversely impact profitability in the near term because
sales commissions are expensed as new subscriptions are sold and installed.

     Revenues from the Company's videotape networks begin when the videotape
products are shipped to the customer. All videotape subscription service fees
are paid in advance except BTCC, which is typically billed monthly. Sales
commissions for videotape services are expensed over the life of the related
contract which is generally one to three years.

     The Company also installs downlink equipment at IDTN and EXEN sites, along
with other interactive equipment such as One Touch devices and computer
hardware.  Revenues for the Company's interactive multimedia networks commence
as the live events occur in the case of IDTN; and when the first class of a
course is offered in the case of EXEN.  Fees charged to IDTN customers are based
upon a base price for each single day event, with separate fees charged for
providing additional services such as production enhancement, instructional
design and catering.  Fees charged to EXEN customers are based upon the number
of participants enrolled in each course.  Additionally, EXEN subscribers pay a
monthly subscription fee and a one-time enrollment fee for the Company.  Sales
commissions for IDTN services are expensed as the live events occur, while
commissions for EXEN are expensed over the life of the related contract which is
generally one year.

     Even though the Company's networks have achieved sufficient penetration to
establish a prominent presence in their respective fields, future revenue growth
is dependent on staying abreast of specific industry needs and delivery of
consistently high quality programming and timely information to its subscribers.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
1994:

     REVENUES.  Revenues increased $8,093,481 or 9% primarily as a result of
revenue growth in networks or products acquired or internally-developed since
the first quarter of 1994, such as IDTN, LETN workstations, EXEN, and EMU. Also
contributing to this increase was an increase in LTCN revenues.  Revenues from
the Company's six principal markets for the periods indicated were as follows:

</TABLE>

     Revenues in the Government and Public Services market increased $1,702,071
or 9% due primarily to an increase in LETN workstation sales. Also contributing
to this increase was an increase in revenues for EMU, which was acquired in the
first quarter of 1995; and GSTN, which has experienced an increase in
subscribers since its inception in mid-1993. The increase in revenues was
partially offset by a decrease in revenues for LETN and FETN satellite and
videotape subscriptions as a result of a decrease in subscribers over the same
period last year.

     Revenues in the Automotive market decreased $198,119 or 2% due primarily to
decreases in the number of subscribers for ASTN.  WCMI experienced an increase
in revenues resulting from several custom programming projects completed during
1995.

     Revenues in the Health Care market increased $299,765 or 2% primarily as a
result of an increase in revenues for LTCN, an internally-developed network
which began operations in April 1993.  Partially offsetting this increase was a
decrease in revenues for HSTN and AHA as a result of a decrease in subscribers
for these networks over the same period last year.  IMN also experienced a
decrease in revenues from its PsychLINK network as a result of a decrease in
available educational grants which fund its programming.

     Revenues in the Corporate and Professional market increased $5,898,887 or
24% primarily as a result of IDTN's electronic classrooms which began operations
in the first quarter of 1994, and EXEN, which began operations during the fourth
quarter of 1995. Also contributing to this increase was ATSN, an internally-
developed network which was introduced during the second quarter of 1995; and
Safety Watch, a product acquired from Lockert Jackson in the first quarter of
1995. Partially offsetting these increases were decreases in revenues for ITS
and Tel-A-Train which management believes result from an industry-wide decline
in safety training sales, and a decline in international sales as a result of
the decline in economic conditions in Mexico.
 
     Revenues in the Financial Services market increased $603,795 or 10% due to
an increase in subscription-based revenue for BTCC as a result of an increase in
subscribers over the same period last year.

     Revenues in the Education market increased $68,361 or 1% due to revenues
generated from a government grant received in the first quarter of 1995.

                                       25

     PROGRAMMING AND PRODUCTION.  Programming and production costs increased
$2,080,821 or 11% primarily as a result of production costs associated with IDTN
which began operations in early 1994.  Programming and production costs for WCMI
increased over the same period last year as an increased number of custom
programming projects were completed during 1995.  Also contributing to this
increase was EXEN, which began operations in the fourth quarter of 1995; and TI-
IN, which offered additional courses and provided additional programming under a
government grant received during the first quarter of 1995.  Partially
offsetting these increases were decreases in programming and production costs
for many of the Company's more mature satellite networks such as LETN, FETN,
ASTN and HSTN, as a result of the more efficient use of production facilities
and utilization of existing program inventory.  IMN costs decreased because
fewer teleconferences were produced.

     DELIVERY AND TRANSMISSION.  The increase of $2,402,440 or 22% over the
corresponding period last year is primarily due to an increase in transponder
expense, resulting from an amendment in September, 1994 to the Company's long-
term transponder lease which increased its satellite transponder capacity.  From
1994 to 1995, the Company experienced an increase in the cost of goods sold
attributable to the increase in LETN workstation sales, as well as an increase
in delivery & transmission costs for IDTN, which began operations in early 1994.
Also contributing to the overall increase was an increase in equipment
cancellation expense as a result of decline in subscribers in some of the mature
networks, and an increase in the proportion of service related activity as
opposed to installation and CDV conversion activity over the same period last
year.

     SALES AND MARKETING.  Sales and marketing expenses decreased $1,577,482 or
7% primarily as a result of the closing of the ITS New Jersey sales office in
late 1994. In addition, ITS experienced a decrease in commission expense as
result of a decrease in sales from 1994 to 1995, and as a result of the
implementation of a new sales commission plan adopted in late 1994. Also
contributing to the decrease in overall sales and marketing expense was ASTN,
LETN and FETN which experienced a reduction in commission expense resulting from
a decrease in sales from 1994 to 1995. Sales and marketing costs for
subscription networks tend to decrease as the networks mature since commissions
on renewals are lower than those paid on original sales.

     Sales personnel are compensated through commissions on new sales and
renewals supplemented by a small base salary. Therefore, commission expense for
the satellite networks in any reporting period will vary with the number of
subscriptions and renewals sold during such reporting period. Commissions
relating to the videotape, teleconference and interactive multimedia networks,
however, are deferred and amortized over the life of the respective contract,
which is generally a period of one to three years.

     GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.  General and administrative expenses decreased
$1,214,623 or 12% over the prior period.  This category includes operating costs
for the Company's travel agency, executive compensation, facilities and other
expenses not directly attributed to the operation of the programming, production
and sales and marketing departments.  The decrease in expenses from 1994 to 1995
is primarily due to a decrease in bad debt expense, the sale of the travel
agency in the fourth quarter of 1994 and a decrease in outside consulting
expense for BTCC.

     DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION.  The $1,888,443 or 19% increase in
depreciation and amortization expense over the same period last year is
primarily attributable to depreciation increases for the installation of
downlink and CDV equipment at customer receive sites for the Company's satellite
networks. Production equipment, computer equipment and software, One-Touch
equipment installed at TI-IN sites, equipment installed for IDTN electronic
classrooms, and leasehold improvements necessary to accommodate the Company's
overall growth also contributed to this increase in depreciation expense.
Amortization increased over the same period last year primarily as a result of
intangibles acquired in the acquisitions of ETC and Lockert Jackson since the
first quarter of 1994.
 
     INTEREST.  Interest expense decreased by $55,834 or 32% primarily as a
result of the payment of $1,100,000 of long-term debt in December, 1994.
Interest income increased $449,952 or 477% over the same period last year
primarily as a result of the increase in temporary interest-bearing investments.

     TAXES.  The provision for income taxes as a percentage of income before
income taxes increased from 38% in 1994 to 40% in 1995. This increase resulted
primarily from an increase in state income taxes, an increase in non-deductible
goodwill and the application of graduated tax rates.

COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
1993:

     REVENUES.  Revenues increased $20,443,261 or 30% primarily as a result of
revenue growth in networks acquired or internally-developed since the first
quarter of 1993.  Because the Company now offers more diversified products and
services than in past periods, including teleconferences, Training on Demand and
other customer services, management believes that reporting revenues by markets
served is becoming more indicative of the Company's performance.  Revenues from
the Company's six principal markets for the periods indicated were as follows:

</TABLE>

     Revenues in the Government and Public Services market decreased $621,869 or
3% due primarily to decreases in the number of subscribers for LETN and FETN
during 1994. Management believes these decreases stabilized to some extent by
the end of 1994. This decrease in revenues was mitigated by an increase in
revenues for GSTN, an internally-developed network which began operations in
late 1993. American Heat and Pulse also experienced an increase in revenues from
1993 to 1994.

     Revenues in the Automotive market increased $192,737 or 2% due primarily to
increases in the number of subscribers for ASTN.

     Revenues in the Health Care market increased $4,761,125 or 32% primarily as
a result of an increase in revenues for LTCN, an internally-developed network
which began operations in April 1993. An increase in the number of subscribers
to Westcott Healthcare Teleconference programs, some of which were acquired
during the first quarter of 1993, along with an increase in subscribers for HSTN
also contributed to the revenue growth in this market.

     Revenues in the Corporate and Professional market increased $15,099,101 or
158% primarily as a result of the acquisitions of Tel-A-Train and ETC, in the
fourth quarter of 1993 and the first quarter of 1994, respectively.  Also
contributing to this increase were IDTN's electronic classroom operation which
began operations in the first quarter of 1994, and ITS, which was acquired
during the second quarter of 1993.
 
     Revenues in the Financial Services market increased $173,210 or 3% as a
direct result of revenue growth in BTCC.
 
     Revenues in the Education market increased $1,114,971 or 14% due to the
introduction of elementary and middle school products and services, as well as
the addition of new high school subscribers for the 1993-1994 school year.

     PROGRAMMING AND PRODUCTION.  Programming and production costs increased
$5,660,639 or 45% primarily as a result of production costs associated with IDTN
which began operations in early 1994, product cost of ETC and Tel-A-Train
acquired since the fourth quarter of 1993, costs attributable to additional
collateral materials for new operations both acquired and internally developed
since the first quarter of 1993.  In addition, operating costs of the
Interactive Education Service department increased as a result of more demand
for test scoring and continuing education credit tracking.

                                       27

     DELIVERY AND TRANSMISSION.  The increase of $1,415,045 or 15% over the
corresponding period last year is primarily due to videotape distribution costs
associated with product delivery costs of Tel-A-Train and ITS, acquired in 1993;
and ETC, acquired in the first quarter of 1994.  BTCC also experienced an
increase in videotape distribution costs as a result of the increase in the
number of videotape subscribers.  Offsetting these increases were decreases in
videotape distribution costs for FETN, LETN and PSTN as a result of a decrease
in the number of videotape subscribers in these networks.  Also contributing to
the overall increase in delivery and transmission costs was an increase in
operating costs of the satellite communications department in order to
accommodate the Company's overall growth.

     SALES AND MARKETING.  Sales and marketing expenses increased $7,267,161 or
52% primarily as a result of the marketing of networks acquired or internally
developed since the first quarter of 1993 such as Tel-A-Train, ETC, IDTN, ITS,
ECI and GSTN. The marketing costs of BTCC also increased from 1993 to 1994 as a
result of the amortization of deferred contract costs associated with contracts
obtained in 1992 and 1993.

     Sales personnel are compensated through full commissions on new sales,
supplemented by significantly lower commissions for renewals and a small base
salary.  Therefore, commission expense for the satellite networks in any
reporting period will vary with the number of subscriptions and renewals sold
during such reporting period. Commissions relating to the videotape and
teleconference networks, however, are deferred and amortized over the life of
the respective contract, which is generally a period of one to three years.

     GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.  General and administrative expenses decreased
$768,073 or 7% over the prior period.  This category includes operating costs
for the Company's travel agency, executive compensation, facilities and other
expenses not directly attributed to the operation of the programming, production
and sales and marketing departments.  The decrease in expenses from 1993 to 1994
is primarily due to networks acquired during 1993 such as BTVS, TI-IN and ECI;
which experienced a reduction in expenses as they became fully integrated with
the Company.  Also contributing to this decrease was a reduction in operating
costs for the travel agency.  Partially offsetting these decreases was an
increase in bad debt expense; an increase in administrative costs for ETC, which
was acquired during 1994; and an overall increase in administrative operating
costs in order to accommodate the Company's overall growth.

     DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION.  The $2,293,631 or 29% increase in
depreciation and amortization expense over the same period last year is
primarily attributable to depreciation increases for the installation of
downlink and CDV equipment at LETN, FETN, HSTN, LTCN and TI-IN sites, as well as
One-Touch equipment installed at TI-IN sites during 1994. Equipment installed
for IDTN electronic classrooms, computer equipment and software, leasehold
improvements and production equipment purchases necessary to accommodate the
Company's overall growth also contributed to this increase in depreciation
expense. Amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets added in
connection with acquisitions made during 1993 and 1994 also increased during the
comparison period.
 
     INTEREST.  Interest expense decreased by $67,849 or 28% primarily as a
result of the payment of $8,190,640 of long-term debt in June, 1993. Interest
income remained relatively stable with a slight decrease of $68,000 or 42% over
the same period last year primarily as a result of the decrease in temporary
interest-bearing investments.

     TAXES.  The provision for income taxes as a percentage of income before
income taxes remained at 38% from 1993 to 1994.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     During 1995, the Company satisfied its liquidity needs principally from
cash flow from operations. In addition, the Company has a credit facility under
which the Company may borrow up to $18,000,000. No amounts have been drawn
against this facility as of December 31, 1995. The facility, which has been
extended through June 28, 1996, provides a sublimit of $1,000,000 for standby
letters of credit. A commitment fee of one half of 1% of the unused credit line
and an interest rate of prime, or if lower, an alternate CD rate plus 1 1/2%
will be charged. As of December 31, 1995, the Company had $14,267,208 in cash
and cash equivalents.

                                       28
<PAGE>
 
     The Company's credit facility contains various restrictive covenants which,
among other things, prohibit the payment of cash dividends and require the
Company to maintain certain financial and tangible net worth ratios.  The
facility is secured by studio equipment, downlink equipment, other equipment and
fixtures, subsidiary stock and accounts receivable.

     During the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company generated
approximately $20.6 million in cash from operations. Approximately $13.6 million
in cash was used in investment activities, primarily in connection with the
purchase of equipment, investments in program inventory and the acquisition of
Lockert Jackson and Associates. The Company's financing activities during the
year ended December 31, 1995 generated approximately $1.5 million, primarily
from the issuance of Common Stock under the Company's employee stock purchase
and option plans, which was partially offset by payments on short term and long
term debt.

     The Company has identified capital needs of approximately $8 million
through 1996 primarily to fund additions to the production facility, additional
purchases and installations of downlink equipment, computer hardware and
software for the A/S 400, purchases and installation of equipment for EXEN
classroom sites, and investments in program inventory. As of December 31, 1995,
the Company had operating lease commitments of $6,990,070, $6,628,508 and
$5,949,778 in 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively. The Company had no significant
capital lease commitments.

     The Company believes cash generated from operations, cash on hand, and
funds available under the revolving line of credit will be sufficient to meet
its budgeted capital and liquidity requirements through the foreseeable future.

               REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



To the Shareholders
WESTCOTT COMMUNICATIONS, INC.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Westcott
Communications, Inc. as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. Our audits also
included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 14(a).
These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Westcott Communications, Inc. at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.  Also in our opinion, the related financial
statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the
information set forth therein.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               DECEMBER 31, 1995



1.   DESCRIPTION OF COMPANY

     Westcott Communications, Inc., a Texas corporation (the "Company"),
educates, trains and informs individuals with common interests in selected
markets by providing value-added products and services using appropriate
communication technologies. Markets that are currently served include government
and public service, automotive, corporate and professional, healthcare,
education, financial services and electronic classroom. The Company's operations
have been conducted primarily within the continental United States, and sales
outside the U.S. to date have not been material.


2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its 50% owned
investee (Note 6). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have
been eliminated.

     Use of Estimates - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid
investments with maturities of 90 days or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents.

     Revenues - Subscription fees for satellite and videotape network services
are recognized in the month services are rendered. IDTN customers are generally
billed for services rendered upon completion of their broadcast. First time
customers under a "Proof of Concept" contract may be billed one half of their
fee when the contract is signed, with the remaining portion billed upon
completion of the broadcast. Subscription fees for EXEN customers are billed in
the month following the month of service. Fees for participation are generally
billed in the month following the first class session of each course. Enrollment
fees are billed upon contract signature.

     Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable include subscription fees billed
to satellite network subscribers one month in advance and videotape subscribers
generally billed a year in advance or within one month of delivery of goods. The
base contract fee for IDTN services are generally recognized in the month that
the broadcast occurs. Additional revenues not covered by the base fee, such as
those received for catering services, temporary viewing sites and additional
production services, are recognized on the percentage-of-completion basis. The
subscription fee for EXEN customers is recognized on a straight-line basis over
the life of the related contract, which is generally one year. Revenue for
participation fees in excess of this subscription fee are recognized in the
month that the course begins. EXEN enrollment fees are recognized in the month
the customer's enrollment is complete. Bad debt expense for the years ended
December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995 was approximately $1,111,000, $2,105,000 and
$1,423,000, respectively. A portion of the amount in unearned revenue represents
additional reserve for uncollectible accounts receivable to the extent the
revenue has not been recognized.

     Program Inventory - Program inventory represents the unamortized cost of
programs produced for both the satellite and videotape networks. The cost of
these programs has been calculated using the average cost method. The cost of
satellite programs is expensed as airings occur in ratio to an estimated number
of future showings of each program, and are allocated between current and
noncurrent based on the estimated cost of programs to air in the following
twelve months. The cost of videotape inventory is expensed on a straight-line
basis over the estimated period of time that revenues from future sales are
estimated to be generated, which is generally one to five years. The

amortization of satellite program inventory is dependent upon management's
estimate of the number of future airings. Program inventory is reviewed
periodically and revised downward if the usefulness of a program declines.

     Goodwill and Other Intangibles - Goodwill is generally amortized on a
straight-line basis over a period of 15 years.  Other intangible assets include
noncompete agreements, trademarks and customer agreements which are amortized
using the straight-line method over the lesser of the period of the agreement or
the estimated useful lives which range from 3-7 years.

     Investments - At December 31, 1994, investments consist primarily of equity
securities.  These securities are classified as trading securities and are
stated at fair market value.

     Equipment Inventory - Equipment inventory represents uninstalled receive
site equipment.

     Deferred Contract Costs - Certain costs incurred within the videotape
networks to obtain sales contracts are deferred and amortized using the
straight-line method over the period of time that revenues from these contracts
are recognized, which generally ranges from 1-2 years.  Such costs are included
in other current assets in the accompanying financial statements.  Amortization
of deferred contract costs totaled approximately $1,344,000, $2,728,000 and
$1,670,000 in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively, and is included in sales and
marketing costs in the accompanying financial statements.

     Commission Expense - Commissions for obtaining satellite subscriber
contracts are generally expensed in the month the contract is received, with the
exception of TI-IN satellite subscriber contracts which are deferred and
expensed over the life of the contract which is usually one school year.
Commissions for obtaining EXEN and videotape contracts are deferred and expensed
over the life of the related contract. IDTN commissions are expensed as the live
events occur.

     Unearned Revenue - Unearned revenue represents amounts paid by or billed to
customers (with payment due within 30 days) for services to be delivered in
future periods. Unearned revenue is recognized as these services are delivered.

     Depreciation and Amortization - Depreciation of property and equipment is
computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives which range
from 3-8 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the
term of the related lease or their estimated useful lives.

     Income Taxes - Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on
the difference between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their
carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. In addition, the current or
deferred consequences of a transaction are measured by applying the provisions
of enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable currently or in
future years.

     Stock-based Compensation - The Company has elected to follow Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB
25) and related Interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options,
rather than adopting the alternative fair value accounting provided for under
FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". Under APB 25,
because the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options equals the
market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation
expense is recognized.

     Risk Concentration - Financial instruments which potentially subject the
Company to concentrations of credit risk are short-term cash investments and
accounts receivable. The Company places its short-term cash investments in

government securities and investment grade, short-term bank certificates of
deposit.  The Company sells subscription and production services to customers
throughout the United States and Canada associated with the law enforcement,
fire and emergency, healthcare, banking, professional security, corporate,
education, accounting and automotive industries.  The Company continuously
evaluates the creditworthiness of its customers' financial condition and
generally does not require collateral.  The Company's allowance for doubtful
accounts is based on current market conditions and losses on uncollectible
accounts have consistently been within management's expectations.

     Earnings per share - Earnings per share amounts are computed by dividing
net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of
common and common equivalent shares outstanding.

     Reclassifications - Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to
conform with the 1995 presentation.

     During 1993, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of TI-IN
Network, Inc. and BancTraining Video Systems including deferred tax assets of
$3,134,615 and $438,229, respectively.  These acquisitions were accounted for
using the pooling-of-interests method of accounting, and as a result, the
deferred tax assets were recorded through an addition to additional paid-in
capital.

     At December 31, 1995, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward of
approximately $2,064,806.  The net operating loss carryforward is subject to
certain limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, and expires
in 2009.


6.   INTEREST IN PARTNERSHIP

     Effective April 1993, the Company entered into a partnership agreement to
form Government Services Television Network, L.L.P. ("GSTN"). The Company is the
sole managing partner of GSTN and holds a 50% interest in the partnership, with
the remaining 50% being held by the Public Parties Limited Partnership.

     The Company believes that its 50% ownership interest in the partnership,
coupled with its sole management authority, is sufficient to create a majority
interest for purposes of applying SFAS No. 94.  Therefore, the Company reports
its investment in GSTN under the consolidation method.

7.   COMMITMENTS

     The Company negotiated a long-term transponder lease commencing on
September 1, 1991 and extending through January 16, 2002 to provide transmission
services for ASTN, LETN, HSTN, LTCN and FETN. The terms of this operating lease

occasional-use time is currently available to the Company under this agreement.

     During 1994, and in accordance with the terms of the transponder lease
agreement, the Company expanded its satellite transponder capacity to provide
transmission for IDTN, EXEN and other teleconferences, resulting in an increase
in the minimum annual lease payments due under this agreement.

     The Company is committed to certain operating leases for office and
production space as well as satellite transponder capacity. The minimum annual
lease payments due under these agreements are as follows:

9.   PUBLIC OFFERINGS

     On May 27, 1993, the Company sold 1,571,500 shares of its Common Stock in
an underwritten public offering. The Company received net proceeds from the sale
of these shares of approximately $17,545,000 after deducting underwriting
discounts, commissions and other offering expenses.


10.  DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN

     In January 1995, the Company adopted the Westcott Communications 401(k)
Employee Savings Plan for the benefit of its employees.  This qualified cash or
deferred arrangement meets the requirements as set forth in Section 401(k) of
the Internal Revenue Code, and as such, provides certain tax benefits to the
participating employees.

     All employees of the Company who are at least 21 years of age and who have
worked for the Company for at least six months are eligible to participate in
the Plan.  Participating employees may contribute from 1% to 15% of their
taxable wages as reported on Form W-2.  As of December 31, 1995, the Company has
made no matching contributions to the Plan on behalf of its employees.  For the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, the Company incurred approximately $4,000
in fees for administration of the Plan.


11.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     The Company's Board of Directors includes two members of management of
Electronic Data Systems Corporation ("EDS").  EDS is a subscriber to both the
ASTN and EXEN networks.  EDS paid the Company $5,393,926, $5,774,974 and
$5,253,352 for subscription fees to ASTN in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
During 1995, the Company received $296,717 for participation fees to EXEN.

     In September 1992, the Company and EDS participated in a public offering in
which EDS sold 2,304,500 shares and the Company sold 2,000,000 shares of Common
Stock of the Company.  In addition to the public offering, the Company and EDS
entered into an Exchange Agreement whereby EDS exchanged its remaining 1,703,392
shares of Common Stock for 116,427 shares of a new series of Preferred Stock of
the Company.  This cumulative redeemable Preferred Stock had an aggregate
initial liquidation value of $11,642,684 equal to the per share net proceeds of
Common Stock received by the Company and EDS pursuant to the public offering,
times the number of shares of Common Stock exchanged by EDS.  This cumulative
redeemable Preferred Stock had a dividend rate of 5 1/2% per annum and was
neither convertible nor mandatorily redeemable.  This Preferred Stock had
aggregate voting power equal to the 1,703,392 shares of Common Stock exchanged
for the Preferred Stock.  At January 1, 1993, the per share redemption value of
the Preferred Stock was $100.50.

     Effective March 31, 1993, the Company entered into an agreement with EDS in
which the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of its Preferred Stock
held by EDS.  In payment for the Preferred Stock, the Company issued a
promissory note to EDS in the principal amount of $8,190,640 payable within 180
days.  Interest on the note accrued at the rate of 5 1/2% per annum.  The note
was, at the Company's option, to be satisfied either in cash or by delivering
shares of the Company's Common Stock which would be sufficient to pay the
principal plus accrued interest at the date of delivery of the shares.  On June
10, 1993, the Company paid cash in the amount of $8,278,235 in full satisfaction
of the note and the accrued interest thereon.

     The Company periodically leases a jet aircraft from a corporation wholly
owned by its founder and Chief Executive Officer on terms the Company believes
to be no less favorable to the Company than can be obtained for such service

related services.


12.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On January 9, 1996, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a
dividend of one preferred share purchase right ("Right") for each outstanding
share of the Company's Common Stock. The dividend was payable to shareholders of
record as of the close of business on January 22, 1996. Each Right entitles the
registered holder to purchase one one-hundredth of a share of the Company's
Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a
price of $80.00 per one one-hundredth of a share of Preferred Stock, subject to
adjustment. The Rights will be exercisable only if a person or group of persons
acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the Company's Common Stock or
commences a tender or exchange offer upon consummation of which such person or
group would beneficially own 20% or more of the Company's Common Stock. The
Rights will expire on January 9, 2006. The Company will generally be entitled to
redeem the Rights at $.01 per Right at any time until a 20% position has been
acquired. The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights
Agreement dated as of January 9, 1996, as the same may be amended from time to
time, between the Company and KeyCorp Shareholder Services, Inc., as Rights
Agent.
