                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (unaudited)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.       In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
         financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present
         fairly the financial position as of April 30, 1997 and the results of
         operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended April 30,
         1997 and 1996. The results of operations for the three-month period
         ended April 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
         be expected for the full year.

2.       Margolis & Company P.C., the Company's auditors, has performed a
         limited review of the financial information for the periods ended April
         30, 1997 included herein. Their report on such review accompanies this
         filing.

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors
Bala Cynwyd Corporation
Bala Cynwyd, PA

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed balance sheet of Bala Cynwyd
Corporation as of April 30, 1997 and the related condensed statements of
operations and cash flows for the three- month period ended April 30, 1997.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is
the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a
whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying condensed financial statements for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the balance sheet as of January 31, 1997 and the related statements
of operations, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not
presented herein); and in our report dated January 10, 2000, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying condensed balance sheet as of January
31, 1997 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the balance
sheet from which it has been derived.

The financial statements of Bala Cynwyd Corporation for the three-month period
ended April 30, 1996 were prepared by management and were not audited or
reviewed by an independent accountant.

         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   (unaudited)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------






Nature of Business
------------------

The Company presently conducts no business, but is searching for appropriate
investment and acquisition opportunities. Its only income consists of interest
from investment income.



Results of Operations
---------------------

During the three months ended April 30, 1997, the Company earned interest of
$5,064 as compared to $9,378 of interest earned in the three months ended April
30, 1996, a decrease of $4,314. During the three months ended April 30, 1997,
the Company incurred general and administrative expenses of $1,576, a decrease
of $6,386 as compared with the three months ended April 30, 1996 expenses of
$7,962.



Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

During the three months ended April 30, 1997, the Company satisfied its working
capital needs from cash on hand at the beginning of the year and cash generated
from interest income during the period. As of April 30, 1997, the Company had
working capital of $445,844. This working capital is expected to provide the
Company with sufficient capital while it seeks a merger, acquisition or other
arrangement by and between the Company and a viable operating entity, although
there is no assurance that this will occur.
