     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
     the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Badlands Golf Club, Inc.
     ("The Badlands"), which was established during 1995, and is located in Las
     Vegas, Nevada. The Company also owns a majority (53.5%) interest in the
     Forest Lakes Limited Partnership which owns The Forest Lakes Golf Club in
     Sarasota, Florida ("Forest Lakes") and accordingly, the financial
     information presented herein includes the assets, liabilities, and revenue
     and expense of Forest Lakes. All significant intercompany transactions and

     the Company without audit in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles for interim financial statements and with the instructions to
     Form 10QSB. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include
     all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
     principles for complete financial statements. The financial statements
     reflect all adjustments and accruals which management considers necessary
     for a fair presentation in financial position as of September 30, 1996, and
     results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September
     30, 1996 and 1995. The results for the interim periods presented are not
     necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any future period.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

     highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three
     months or less to be cash equivalents.

     weighted average number of common shares does not include the effect of
     certain out-of-the-money warrants outstanding as their effect is
     antidilutive. Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average
     number of common shares outstanding during each period.

2. GOLF COURSE DEVELOPMENT COSTS

     CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS

     During October, 1996 the Company completed construction of the clubhouse
     facilities at The Badlands. At September 30, 1996 construction in progress
     consisted of construction, design, and other costs incurred in connection
     with the construction of the clubhouse and other structures at The Badlands
     as well as preliminary design and planning costs incurred in connection
     with the Company's planned golf course development project in McKinney,
     Texas, and the planned development of an additional nine holes at The
     Badlands. These costs will be depreciated over the estimated useful lives
     of the assets once the assets are placed in service.

     LAND LEASE AGREEMENT - THE BADLANDS

     The Badlands is situated on approximately 186 acres of leased land in Las
     Vegas, Nevada, which land is leased for a term of 49 years expiring July,
     2045. The lease agreement contains four 10-year options to extend the term
     of the lease based on certain terms as defined. The lease requires rental
     payments of $240,000 per annum, commencing July 1, 1995, with an increase
     every three years based on the increase in the Consumer Price Index. The
     lease also contains a contingent rental clause requiring the Company to pay
     an 


<PAGE>   10

     amount equal to the amount by which 6% of annual gross receipts at The
     Badlands exceeds the minimum annual rental of $240,000. The lease also
     requires the Company to pay real estate taxes, assessments, and other
     charges in connection with the leased land.

     LAND LEASE AGREEMENT - THE BADLANDS - DEVELOPMENT OF ADDITIONAL NINE HOLES

     During June, 1996 the Company executed an agreement to lease an additional
     67 acres abutting The Badlands which land will be used to develop an
     additional nine holes. The term of the new lease will be coterminous with
     the existing lease, expiring July 2045, with four (4) ten-year extension
     options. The annual rental will be the greater of 6% of annual gross
     receipts or $120,000, with rentals commencing on the earlier of : (i) the
     opening of the additional nine holes to the general public; or (ii)
     November 1, 1998. The lease also requires the Company to pay real estate
     taxes, assessments, and other charges in connection with the leased
     property.

     WATER RIGHTS AGREEMENT - NEVADA

     The Company has purchased 399 acre-feet of water rights under a water
     rights agreement (the "Agreement") for use at The Badlands. The Agreement
     requires the Company to pay $13,300 per month commencing on July 1, 1995
     and continuing for ten years through July 2005. The obligation under the
     water rights agreement has been capitalized in the accompanying
     consolidated balance sheet. The capitalized water rights will not be
     amortized since the asset has an indefinite and indeterminable life span,
     and is transferable by the Company subject to certain restrictions in the
     Agreement.

     CONSTRUCTION AND TERM LOAN AGREEMENT - THE BADLANDS ORIGINAL 18 HOLES &
     CLUBHOUSE

     In December, 1995, the Company entered into a $6,700,000 loan agreement. At
     the closing, the loan provided the Company with $3,384,000 which was used
     to pay off the then outstanding Badlands construction loan, returned
     approximately $1,200,000 in cash to the Company, and provided an additional
     $1,616,000 to complete construction of the clubhouse and other structures
     at The Badlands.

     In addition to the $3,384,000 at closing and the $1,616,000 provided for
     clubhouse construction, the loan provides for the availability to the
     Company of an additional $1,700,000 in "Earnout Advances". The earnout
     funds will be made available to the Company over a period of thirty months
     following the loan closing so long as certain operating results are
     achieved at The Badlands, including minimum debt service coverage ratios,
     and other revenue and cash flow criteria, as defined in the loan agreement.
     This earnout provision will be eliminated upon the closing of a new
     $5,000,000 construction and term loan agreement which is described herein
     and which will be used for development of an additional nine holes at The
     Badlands.

     The loan is subject to a 20-year amortization with the interest rate fixed
     at 10.78%. The loan term is five years with a maturity date of December 26,
     2000, however the Company may extend the term for an additional five years
     upon payment of an extension fee of .5% and assuming the Company meets
     certain terms and conditions as defined in the 


<PAGE>   11

     agreement. Borrowings are collateralized by a Deed of Trust and a security
     interest in substantially all assets of The Badlands. The agreement also
     contains certain covenants, including those of a financial nature, which
     the Company must meet and maintain.

     CONSTRUCTION AND TERM LOAN AGREEMENT - THE BADLANDS - 9-HOLE EXPANSION

     During September 1996 the Company accepted a loan commitment in the amount
     of $5,000,000 for development of an additional nine holes at The Badlands.
     The loan provides for up to $4,000,000 for construction and other indirect
     costs associated with the development, and also provides for the
     availability of up to $1,000,000 in "Earnout Advances". The earnout funds
     will be made available to the Company over a period of thirty months
     following the loan closing so long as certain operating results are
     achieved, including minimum debt service coverage ratios, and other revenue
     and cash flow criteria, as defined in the loan agreement. This $1,000,000
     earnout provision will supersede and serve to replace the earnout provision
     contained in the existing $6,700,000 construction and term loan agreement
     as discussed herein. The term of the new $5,000,000 loan will be five years
     with a five-year extension option, and will be amortized over twenty years.

4. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     COMMON STOCK

     In November 1994, the Company sold 1,600,000 shares of common stock and
     warrants at a price of $5.00 per common share and $.10 per warrant through
     an initial public offering. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase
     one share of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $5.50,
     subject to adjustment, at any time until November 16, 1999, at which time
     the warrants expire. The warrants can be redeemed by the Company at a price
     of $5.10 per warrant on 30 days' written notice, provided the average of
     the closing bid prices of the common stock of the Company equals or exceeds
     $8.00 for 20 consecutive trading days ending 3 days before the date the
     notice of redemption is given.

     UNDERWRITER'S WARRANTS

     In connection with the Company's initial public offering in November 1994,
     the Company issued 160,000 warrants to the underwriter (the "Underwriter's
     Warrants"). Each Underwriter's Warrant entitles the Underwriter to purchase
     one share of common stock for $7.25 and one warrant for $.15.

     OVERALLOTMENT OPTION

     In addition to the Underwriter's Warrants, the Company granted an
     overallotment option (the "Option") to the Underwriter. The Option entitled
     the Underwriter to purchase additional shares of common stock and/or
     additional warrants at the public offering price less the underwriting
     discounts and commissions, as defined. In December 1994, the Underwriter
     exercised its option and purchased 153,200 warrants for $13,351 net of
     discounts and commissions.

     PREFERRED STOCK

     The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock with
     such designations, voting, and other rights and preferences as may be
     determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.

     STOCK OPTION PLAN

     On June 20, 1994, the Company adopted a Stock Option Plan which provides
     for the granting of non-qualified and incentive stock options, as defined
     by the Internal Revenue Code, to key employees at prices as determined by
     the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Under the plan,
     options for a maximum of 350,000 shares of common stock may be granted over
     a period not to exceed ten years. As of September 30, 1996, 195,000 options
     have been authorized to be granted under this plan.

<PAGE>   13

     MANAGEMENT STOCK OPTIONS

     Effective June 20, 1994, the Company entered into employee stock option
     agreements with certain officers and key employees granting them options to
     acquire up to 1,111,111 shares of the Company's common stock for an
     exercise price of $1.00 per share. Under these agreements, each employee's
     options vest and become exercisable based on the Company achieving certain
     financial benchmarks, as defined in the agreements. During the fourth
     quarter of 1995, in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
     25, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES, the Company recorded a
     noncash compensation charge for $2,500,000 based on its estimate of the
     value related to the probable future vesting of stock options granted to
     these individuals. The noncash compensation charge at December 31, 1995 was
     calculated based on the market price of the Company's common stock on
     December 31, 1995 ($3.25), less the exercise price of $1.00 per share,
     multiplied by the number of shares subject to the options (1,111,111). This
     amount is subject to further adjustment in future periods through the date
     the options vest based on changes in the market price of the Company's
     stock.

     During the first and second quarter of 1996 the Company recorded noncash
     compensation charges of $278,000 and $138,700 respectively. During the
     third quarter of 1996 the Company recorded a credit adjustment of
     $1,111,100 and reduced the accrued non-cash compensation costs. The
     adjustment reflected a change in the market price of the Company's common
     stock. Thru September 30, 1996 and subsequent to this credit adjustment,
     the Company had accrued $1,805,600 based on the market price of the
     Company's Common Stock on September 30, 1996 of $2.625 per share.

5.  INCOME TAXES

     At December 31, 1995, the Company had a N.O.L. carryforward available for
     federal tax purposes of approximately $1,442,000 with expiration dates
     beginning in 2009. The Company has provided a valuation allowance equal to
     100% of the gross deferred tax asset since it is more likely than not that
     the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

6.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION - LOAN GUARANTY

     During July 1996 the Company entered into an agreement with Golftown, Inc.,
     a Massachusetts corporation which owns and operates a driving range
     facility in Saugus, Massachusetts (the "Project"). The Company has agreed
     to guaranty a loan in an amount of $295,000 made to Golftown, in exchange
     for a 25% equity interest in the Project. Under the terms of the agreement
     with Golftown and its lender, the Company has the opportunity to cure any
     default under the loan, and in the event of a default, the Company may
     assume day-to-day management of the Project and receive a management fee
     for such services in addition to its 25% interest in the Project profits.
     In addition, the Company has entered into an agreement for a pledge of
     voting rights to a majority of the voting interest of Golftown, which
     pledge becomes effective in the event of a default under the loan being
     guaranteed by the Company. The President and majority stockholder of
     Golftown is Jeffrey Abrams, the son of Stanton V. Abrams, the President and
     Chairman of the Board of Directors of Senior Tour Players Development, Inc.
     The driving range opened to the general public during August, 1996.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

RISK FACTORS AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------

     This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Actual results could differ materially from those
projected, anticipated, or implicit, in the forward-looking statements as a
result of the risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this report.

     The industry in which the Company competes is highly competitive and
capital intensive. The Company's future growth and profitability will be
dependent upon future developments and/or acquisitions of additional golf
courses and golf practice facilties. The number of attractive acquisitions and
development opportunities may be limited and the Company may compete with other
potential buyers whose financial and management resources are substantially
greater than those of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be successful in developing or acquiring any particular project or that any
projects acquired or developed by the Company will be profitable. Additionally,
the Company will be dependent upon third-party funding in the form of equity
participation and/or debt to finance its development and acquisition of future
golf courses and golf practice facilities. Until funding is obtained for new
golf courses and golf practice facilities, the Company will be unable to proceed
with those projects.

     In addition to competing with the Company at the acquisition and
development stage, competitors could also acquire and/or develop golf courses
and/or golf practice facilities in the same market as a Company facility and put
the Company at a competitive disadvantage with respect to pricing and costs of
operation. The Company's revenues will be largely dependent on industry factors
which are beyond its control such as the availability of discretionary income
for golf, a sustained level of popularity for golf, and shifting consumer
preferences.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
--------------------------------

     The Company estimates that is has sufficient cash, operating revenues,
working capital and leasing lines of credit, and committed financing, which are
expected to enable the Company to meet its current operating needs, including
the development of an additional nine holes at The Badlands.

     At September 30, 1996, the Company had $376,104 in cash and cash
equivalents and the Company had borrowed $4,537,942 under its $6,700,000
construction and permanent loan agreement, the terms of which are summarized
herein and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in
Part I of this report. The Company has received a seasonal working capital line
of credit in the amount of $500,000. There were no borrowings under the line as
of September 30, 1996.

     It is the Company's practice to lease golf carts under operating leases,
and to lease maintenance equipment, office, and golf equipment under capital
leases at its owned golf facilities. The Company is leasing substantially all of
its turf maintenance equipment and all of the clubhouse FF&E at The Badlands,
and has secured $750,000 in leasing lines of credit for these purposes. As of
September 30, 1996 the Company had $513,683 outstanding under the leasing lines
of credit. The Company has leased its golf cart fleet at The Badlands under an
operating lease.

<PAGE>   15

PLAN OF OPERATION.
------------------

     The Company's plan of operation for the next twelve months will involve the
completion of the clubhouse at The Badlands and operation of that golf course;
the planning, design, and commencement of construction of an additional nine
holes at The Badlands; continuing management of New England Country Club in
Bellingham, Massachusetts which the Company operates under a management
contract; completion of due diligence and the planning and design of
construction of the proposed golf course at Stonebridge Ranch in McKinney, Texas
as more fully described herein; fund raising efforts for debt and equity to
finance the proposed new development project in McKinney, Texas; and the
continuing search for opportunities for the acquisition, lease, and development
of golf course and golf practice facilities and golf course management
opportunities throughout the United States, with a particular focus on golf
practice facilities.

     Depending on its success in identifying and entering into additional
development, lease, and acquisition opportunities, the Company will seek
additional financing and equity sources to fund potential transactions or
projects. Accordingly, the Company is presently participating in active
discussions concerning additional golf course and practice facility development
and acquisition projects.

     Notwithstanding the Company's efforts and plans for new acquisitions and
development, except for the properties described herein, as of the date of this
report, the Company has no binding commitments, agreements, or understandings to
acquire, lease, or develop any additional golf courses or golf practice
facilities; however, additional acquisitions, developments, leases, or
management agreements may be negotiated or entered into at any time.

PROPOSED GOLF COURSE DEVELOPMENT - STONEBRIDGE RANCH - MCKINNEY, TEXAS

     During March, 1996 the Company signed a purchase and sale agreement and
related documents with Stonebridge Ranch Development Corporation, a residential
development group of the Mobil Land organization, an affiliate of Mobil
Corporation, for the proposed development of an 18-hole championship golf
facility located within the Stonebridge Ranch Development in McKinney, Texas,
approximately 25 miles north of Dallas.

     It was initially projected that course construction would commence in the
Fall of 1996 with an opening targeted for late 1997. However, several issues
have arisen which have delayed the start of construction. The primary reasons
for the delay include the announced sale of the Mobil Land Development
Corporation by Mobil Corporation to Westbrook Partners, LLC, a real estate
investment company. The Stonebridge Ranch Community is owned by Mobile Land
Development. The pending sale has caused delays in the Company's due diligence
undertakings as well as delays in the permitting timetable.

        Notwithstanding the Company's desire to do so, the Company's ability to
develop a golf course at Stonebridge Ranch in McKinney, Texas is dependent on a
number of factors, including, but not limited to, the ability of the Company to
raise the necessary joint venture equity and debt to finance the project; the
requirement to receive all necessary approvals and permits for the 


<PAGE>   16

construction of the golf course and related facilities; and the ability to
negotiate a postponement of the construction start date with Mobil Land
Development.

THE BADLANDS - LAS VEGAS, NEVADA

     The construction of the Badlands clubhouse has been completed and the
Company moved into its new facilities during October, 1996. Since opening in
October, 1995 the Company had been operating its pro shop and limited clubhouse
operations from temporary trailers.

     During June, 1996 the Company executed an agreement to lease an additional
67 acres abutting The Badlands Golf Club which land will be used to develop an
additional nine holes. The term of the new land lease will be coterminous with
the existing Badlands land lease, namely 50 years expiring July 2045, with four
(4) ten-year extension options. The annual rental will be the greater of 6% of
annual gross receipts or $120,000, with rentals commencing on the earlier to
occur of (i) the opening of the additional nine holes to the general public; or
(ii) November 1, 1998. The lease also requires the Company to pay real estate
taxes, assessments, and other charges in connection with the leased property.

     The nine hole expansion is being designed by Johnny Miller Design, Ltd.
with construction scheduled to commence in November to permit an opening by
September, 1997. The Company has received a loan commitment to fund 100% of the
construction costs.

GOLFTOWN DRIVING RANGE - SAUGUS, MASSACHUSETTS

     During July 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with Golftown,
Inc., a Massachusetts corporation that owns and operates a driving range
facility in Saugus, Massachusetts, approximately eight miles north of Boston
(the "Project"). The Company has agreed to guaranty a loan in an amount not to
exceed $295,000 made to Golftown, in exchange for a 25% equity interest in the
Project. Under the terms of the agreement with Golftown and its lender, the
Company has the opportunity to cure any default under the loan, and in the event
of a default, the Company may assume day-to-day management of the Project and
receive a management fee for such services, which fee would be in addition to
its 25% interest in the Project profits. In addition, the Company received a
pledge of voting rights to a majority of the voting interests of Golftown, which
pledge becomes effective in the event of a default under the loan being
guaranteed by the Company. The President and majority owner of Golftown is
Jeffrey Abrams, who is the son of Stanton V. Abrams, President and Chairman of
the Board of Directors of Senior Tour Players Development, Inc. The driving
range opened during August, 1996.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 VS.THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
------------------

The Company was organized in April, 1994 and generated its initial operating
revenues during the first quarter ended March 31, 1995 when it acquired a 53.5%
interest in the Forest Lakes Golf Club in Sarasota, Florida. The Company was
deemed to be a development stage company as described in FAS-7 "Accounting and
Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises" until the fourth quarter of 1995,
when the Badlands Golf Club, the Company's initial development project, opened
for public play. During the three month period ended September 30, 1995 the
Company's 
<PAGE>   17

revenues were limited to Forest Lakes operating revenues and management fees
from a management agreement with New England Country Club.

NET REVENUES during the three month period ended September 30, 1996 totalled
$1,035,017 compared to $469,069 during the same period in 1995, an increase of
$565,947. Substantially all of the increase relates to revenues generated at The
Badlands Golf Club during the third quarter of 1996 which posted revenues of
$801,064 versus $0 during the same period in 1995. The revenue increase from the
Badlands was offset by $232,189 which represents revenues received by the
Company during the third quarter of 1995 from operations at Hidden Hills Golf
Club in northern New Jersey while it was in possession of the course for
purposes of conducting due diligence in contemplation of a proposed acquisition.
The Company subsequently withdrew its offer to purchase and vacated the property
during the third quarter of 1995. Revenues during the third quarter of 1996 at
Forest Lakes were down 5.5% or $10,935 compared to the same period in 1995.
Revenues from management fees during the quarter totalled $48,469, an increase
of $8,007 compared with the same period in 1995.

OPERATING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES were $1,481,284 for the three
month period ended September 30, 1996 compared to $776,652 for the corresponding
period in 1995, an increase of $704,632 which is primarily attributable to the
opening of The Badlands. Operating expenses at The Badlands during the third
quarter of 1996 totalled $942,243 versus $0 in 1995. During the third quarter of
1996, operating expenses relating to the Hidden Hills Golf Club were $0 versus
$244,872 during the third quarter of 1995.

NONCASH COMPENSATION CREDIT. During the third quarter of 1996 the Company
recorded a noncash credit adjustment of $1,111,100 representing an adjustment to
the accrual initially established in 1995 for the probable future vesting of
stock options granted to executive officers and key employees of the Company.
During 1994 the Company entered into employee stock option agreements with
certain key employees under which such employees have been granted options to
acquire up to 1,111,111 shares of Common Stock of the Company for an exercise
price of $1.00 per share. Under the agreements, the options vest and become
exercisable in the following amounts when and if the Company achieves the
following benchmarks: (i) the Company has, for the year ending December 31, 1996
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") of at
least $1,000,000 (50% of the shares subject to the options become immediately
exercisable); and (ii) the Company has, for the year ending December 31, 1997,
EBITDA of at least $1,500,000 (50% of the shares subject to the options become
immediately exercisable). The reserve of $1,805,600 at September 30, 1996
assumes that all of the shares subject to the options vest on the dates
indicated herein.

The calculation by the Company of the $1,805,600 accrual at September 30, 1996
is based on the market price of the Company's Common Stock on September 30, 1996
($2.625), minus the exercise price of $1.00 per share, multiplied by the number
of shares subject to the options (1,111,111). Under current accounting
guidelines, if the EBITDA benchmarks are achieved as called for under the option
agreements, the charge or cost to recognize the vesting of the options will be
calculated by multiplying the number of shares that become exercisable, by the
market price of the Company's Common Stock on the "Measurement Date" minus the
exercise price of $1.00 per share. The "Measurement Date" in the Company's
instance, are the dates on which the benchmarks are, (or may be) achieved,
namely December 31, 1996 and 1997. The amount accrued as of September 30, 1996
is subject to further adjustment, up or down, in future periods through the date
the options vest based on changes in the market price of the Company's stock.
