of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during each quarter.
The weighted average shares for computing primary earnings per share were
3,133,151 and 3,133,151 for the quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1997,

3. ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES

     The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires an asset and liability
approach of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
computed annually for differences between financial statement basis and tax
basis of assets, liabilities and available general business tax credit
carry-forwards. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce
deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

4 . MARKETABLE SECURITIES

     The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement
No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" (the
"Statement") which requires that investments in equity securities that have
readily determinable fair values and investments in debt securities be
classified in six categories: held-to-maturity, trading and available- for-sale.
Based on the nature of the assets held by the Company and management's
investment strategy, the Company's investments have been classified as
available-for-sale. Management determines the appropriate classification of debt
securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each
balance sheet date.

     Securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at estimated fair
value, as determined by quoted market prices, with unrealized gains and losses,
net of tax, reported in a separate component of stockholders' equity. At January
31, 1998, the Company had no investments that were classified as trading or
held-to-maturity as defined by the Statement.

     The following is a summary of cash, cash equivalents and available-for-sale
securities by balance sheet classification at December 31, 1996:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                 for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1997
                -------------------------------------------------

     Except for the description of historical facts contained herein, this Form
10Q-SB contains certain forward looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties as detailed herein and from time to time in the Company's filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission and elsewhere. Such statements are
based on management's current expectations and are subject to a number of
factors and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially
from those described in the forward-looking statements. These factors include,
among others, the Company's fluctuations in sales and operating results, risks
associated with international operations and regulatory, competitive and
contractual risks and product development.

     Results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to
the six months ended June 30, 1996. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Revenues were $0 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $0
for the six months ended March, 1996. Costs of goods sold for the six months
ended June 30, 1997, were $0 as compared to $0 for the six months ended June 30,
1996 representing a cost of goods sold percentage of 0% for the six months ended
Marcgh 31, 1997 as compared to 0% for the six months ended June 30, 1996. The
cost of goods sold percentage during the first quarter of fiscal 1998 remains
approximately consistent with the percentage during the first quarter of fiscal
1997.

     General and administrative costs for the six months ended June 30, 1997
were $400,000, an increase of 100.0% over expenses of $0 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996.

     Liquidity and capital resources as of the end of the six months ended
June 30, 1997.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     The Company's cash balance was $-0- and working capital was a negative
$513,395 as at June 30, 1997.

     The Company's primary short-term needs for capital, which are subject to
change, are for the search for an operating business to be acquired or developed
for the Company.

     Income tax: As of June 30, 1997, the Company has a tax loss carry-forward
of $2,841,977. The Company's ability to utilize its tax credit carry-forwards in
future years will be subject to an annual limitation pursuant to the "Change in
Ownership Rules" under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. However, any annual limitation is not expected to have a material
adverse effect on the Company's ability to utilize its tax credit
carry-forwards.

     The Company currently plans to continue to accept funds from or accrue
expenses incurred officers, directors and other related parties to continue the
Company's existence and seek new business opportunities.

     The Company expects its capital requirements to increase over the next
several years as it commences new search and development efforts, undertakes new
product development, increases sales and administration infrastructure and
embarks on developing in-house business capabilities and facilities. The
Company's future liquidity and capital funding requirements will depend on
numerous factors, including the extent to which the Company's present management
can fund the continued capital requirements, the timing of regulatory
actionsregarding the Company's potential acqusitions, the costs and timing of
expansion of sales, marketing activities, facilities expansion needs, and
competition in any business entered into.

     The Company believes that its available cash and cash from management
contributions will be sufficient to satisfy its funding needs for at least the
next 12 months. Thereafter, if cash generated from any newly acquired or
developed business operations is insufficient to satisfy the Company's working
capital and capital expenditure requirements, the Company may be required to
sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit
facilities. There can be no assurance that such financing, if required, will be
available on satisfactory terms, if at all.
