                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    June 30, 1997 (Unaudited)

(1) Condensed Financial Statements

The financial statements included herein have been prepared by Cypress
Capital, Inc. without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed
or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations, and Cypress Capital, Inc.
believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented
not misleading.  It is suggested that these financial statements be read in
conjunction with the December 31, 1996 audited financial statements and the
accompanying notes thereto.  While management believes the procedures followed
in preparing these financial statements are reasonable, the accuracy of the
amounts are in some respect's dependent upon the facts that will exist, and
procedures that will be accomplished by Cypress Capital, Inc. later in the
year.

The management of Cypress Capital, Inc. believes that the accompanying
unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (including
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the operations and
cash flows for the periods presented.

                              ITEM 2

        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
               CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Cypress Capital, Inc. (the "Company") was organized as a Colorado corporation
on June 14, 1996, in order to evaluate, structure and complete a merger with,
or acquisition of, prospects consisting of private companies, partnerships of
sole proprietorships.  The Company may seek to acquire a controlling interest
in such entities in contemplation of later completing an acquisition.  The
Company is not limited to any operation or geographic area in seeking out
opportunities.  Management has not identified any particular business or
industry within which the Company will seek an acquisition or merger.  The
Company has not conducted, nor have others made available to it, market
research supporting the viability of the Company's proposed operations.

The Company generated no revenues during the quarter ended June 30, 1997, and
management does not anticipate any revenues until following the conclusion of
a merger or acquisition, if any, as contemplated by the Company's business
plan.

The Company's capital is limited.  The Company anticipates operational costs
will be limited until such time as significant evaluation work is undertaken
regarding prospective mergers or acquisitions.

At June 30, 1997, the Company had no material commitments for capital
expenditures.
