Corporation ("Olympic" or the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required
for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. The consolidated financial statements as of and
for the periods ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 are unaudited. The results of

NOTE 1 - OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         NATURE OF BUSINESS - The Company is a financial services organization,
operating through its two wholly owned subsidiaries, National Securities
Corporation ("National"), and WestAmerica Investment Group ("WestAmerica").
Olympic is committed to establishing a significant presence in the financial
services industry by providing financing options for emerging, small and middle
capitalization companies both in the United States and abroad through research,
financial advisory services and sales, and investment banking services for both

trade clearance operations. Additionally, the Company plans to commence online
trading services for its customers on the Internet through NSCdirect
(www.nscdirect.com).

         EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE - Basic earnings (loss) per common share is
based upon the net income (loss) for the quarter divided by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the quarter. For the first quarter of
fiscal 2000 and 1999, the number of shares used in the basic earnings (loss) per
share calculation was 1,701,794 and 1,463,007, respectively. Diluted earnings
(loss) per common share assumes that all common stock equivalents have been
converted to common shares using the treasury stock method at the beginning of
the quarter. For the first quarter of fiscal 2000 and 1999, the number of shares
used in the diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation was 1,778,455 and

NOTE 2 - LINE OF CREDIT

         National has a secured line of credit of up to $3,000,000. The line is

rate. Interest is payable monthly. The line is secured by certain assets of
National excluding items prohibited from being pledged and assets included the
SEC Customer Protection Rule 15c3-3 formula. These borrowings are short-term and
generally do not extend beyond a few days. At December 31, 1999, National had
$200,000 in borrowings outstanding. This amount was repaid within the first
three business days of January 2000.

   Quarter Ended December 31, 1999 Compared to Quarter Ended December 31, 1998
   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company's first quarter of fiscal 2000 resulted in significant increases in
revenues and net income compared with the same period of fiscal 1999. The
Company reported net income of $405,000 compared to a net loss of $261,000 for
the first quarter of fiscal 1999.

Revenues increased $6,310,000, or 77% to $14,471,000 from $8,161,000. This
increase is due primarily to the increase in commission revenue and dealer
inventory gains because of the continued overall strong markets and the addition
of investment executives at National. Commission revenue increased $3,746,000 or
66% to $9,382,000 from $5,636,000. National added additional offices in New York
as well as adding an office in



                                       6

<PAGE>   7

Florida. Net dealer inventory gains increased $1,316,000 or 282% to $1,782,000
in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 from $466,000 in the first quarter of fiscal
1999. The main reason for this significant increase was the strength of the
markets, increased production of existing investment executives and the
production of additional investment executives.

The other category in which revenue increased significantly was underwriting
revenue. Underwriting revenue increased $652,000, or 116% to $1,216,000 from
$564,000. National participated in five private placements raising approximately
$10 million in gross proceeds for clients in the first quarter of fiscal 2000.
During the same period in fiscal 1999, National participated in two private
placements raising approximately $5 million in gross proceeds for clients. The
Company did not manage any public underwritings during either the first quarter
of fiscal 2000 or the first quarter of fiscal 1999.

Concurrent with the 77% increase in revenues, total expenses increased only 67%.
Total expenses increased by $5,647,000 to $14,066,000 from $8,419,000. This
increase in expenses was anticipated due to significant increases in revenues.
The most significant increases were commission expense and salaries.

Commission expense increased $3,941,000 or 86% to $8,528,000 in first quarter of
fiscal 2000 from $4,587,000 in first quarter of fiscal 1999. Salaries increased
$648,000 or 68% to $1,606,000 from $958,000. In September 1998, certain
management of the Company had received temporary reductions in compensation
ranging from 10% to 62%. These reductions had been reinstated in full prior to
the first quarter of fiscal 2000. Overall, combined commissions and salaries as
a percentage of revenue increased 2% to approximately 70% from approximately 68%
in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively. This increase is due
mainly to a higher payout percentage based on higher commission levels for the
investment executives at National.

As anticipated with the increased revenues, expenses regarding communications,
occupancy, clearing, taxes, licenses and registration and other have increased
from the first quarter fiscal 1999 to the first quarter fiscal 2000. The most
significant expense increases were clearing, interest, professional fees and
other.

Clearing fees increased $297,000 or 91% to $622,000 from $325,000, which mainly
relates to the increased business in the London office and the business
generated from the additional New York offices. Other expenses increased
$304,000 or 102% to $601,000 from $297,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2000
and 1999, respectively. In the first quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company
incurred additional travel and moving expense of approximately $76,000 at
Olympic and National. Also, the Company incurred additional employment agency
fees totaling $30,000 as the Company hired more people to accommodate the
growth. Finally, customer write-offs increased approximately $183,000 from the
first quarter of fiscal 1999.



                                       7

<PAGE>   8
Interest expense and professional fees increased during first quarter of fiscal
2000 as compared with the first quarter of fiscal 1999. Interest expense
increased $129,000 or 16% to $953,000 from $824,000. The main reason for this
increase is the increase in customer deposits, on which the Company pays
interest and the interest on debt incurred in fiscal 1998. Interest expense was
offset by the increased interest revenue of $492,000 or 42% to $1,661,000 from
$1,169,000.

Professional fees increased $127,000 or 34% to $506,000 from $379,000. This
increase was due to the settlement of several arbitrations totaling
approximately $150,000.

Overall, diluted earnings were $.23 per share as compared with a net loss of
$.18 per share for the first quarter ended December 31, 1999 and December 31,
1998, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As with most financial firms, substantial portions of the Company's assets are
liquid, consisting mainly of cash or assets readily convertible into cash. These
assets are financed primarily by National's interest bearing and non-interest
bearing customer credit balances, other payables and equity capital.
Occasionally, National utilizes short-term bank financing to supplement its
ability to meet day-to-day operating cash requirements. Such financing has been
used to maximize cash flow and is regularly repaid. National has a $3,000,000
revolving secured credit facility with Bank of America and may borrow up to 70%
of the market value of eligible securities pledged through an unrelated
broker-dealer. These borrowings are short-term and generally do not extend
beyond a few days. At December 31, 1999 National had $200,000 in borrowing
outstanding. This amount was repaid within the first three business days of
January 2000.

National, as a registered broker-dealer is subject to the SEC's Uniform Net
Capital Rule 15c3-1, which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital.
National has elected to use the alternative standard method permitted by the
rule. This requires that National maintain minimum net capital equal to the
greater of $250,000 or 2% of aggregate debit items. At December 31, 1999,
National's net capital exceeded the requirement by $2,636,000.

WestAmerica, as a registered broker-dealer is also subject to the SEC's Net
Capital Rule 15c3-1, which, under the standard method, requires that the company
maintain minimum net capital equal to the greater of $100,000 or 6 2/3% of
aggregate indebtedness. At December 31, 1999, WestAmerica's net capital exceeded
the requirement by $192,000.

Advances, dividend payments and other equity withdrawals from National or
WestAmerica are restricted by the regulations of the SEC, and other regulatory
agencies. These regulatory restrictions may limit the amounts that these
subsidiaries may dividend or advance to Olympic.


                                       8

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that the Company has ready
access to sufficient funds to meet commitments, fund deposit withdrawals and
efficiently provide for the credit needs of customers.

The Company believes its internally generated liquidity, together with access to
external capital and debt resources will be sufficient to satisfy existing
operations. However, as the Company expands its operations, including its new
online trading services, or acquires other businesses, the Company will likely
require additional capital.

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

1.   The Maxal Trust, et al. v. National Securities Corporation et al., United
     States District Court, Central District of California, Case No. CV-97-4392
     ABC (Shx). See disclosure in the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
     December 31, 1998 and Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 24,
     1999.

2.   Complete Management, Inc., United States District Court, Southern District
     of New York. National has been named together with others as a defendant in
     a consolidated class action lawsuit brought by purported shareholders of
     Complete Management, Inc. ("CMI"). A consolidated amended class action
     complaint has yet to be filed. National has been joined as a defendant in
     this lawsuit predicated upon allegations that National was an underwriter
     of CMI's initial public offering and a convertible debenture offering and
     that it issued certain analyst reports which may have been disseminated in
     the press. No specific amount of damages against National has been sought
     in the complaint. National intends to vigorously defend itself against any
     claims that may be brought.

The Company is a defendant in various other arbitrations and administrative
proceedings, lawsuits and claims. The Company believes that the resolution of
these matters will not have a material effect. These matters arise out of the
normal course of business.
