PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

First Mutual, Inc. (Formerly Mutual Enterprises, Incorporated) ("Registrant")
was organized as a Delaware corporation in March, 1968 and conducts its
business through The Community Group, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary and only
active  and operating company.

(a)  ABC MOBILE SYSTEMS, INC.

Through its now inactive wholly owned subsidiary ABC Mobile Systems, Inc. ("ABC
Mobile") the Registrant operated as a franchiser of a wholesale mobile
automobile brake business, offering complete automotive brake repair service and
replacement parts sales to customers at the customer's place of business.
Because of competitive and economic reasons, including the closures of repair
facilities at a significant number of gas stations nationally and the
significant increase in specialty brake repair service alternatives for the
motoring public, the Registrant ceased selling new brake business franchises in
1986 and thereafter sold outright its existing franchises to its existing
franchise owners.  As of September 30, 1997 no franchises of ABC Mobile remained
operational.

(b)  COMMUNITY GROUP, INC.

The Community Group, Inc. ("Community Group"), the sole operating wholly-owned
subsidiary of the registrant, was organized as a Massachusetts corporation in
1972. Community Group  provides habilitative and training services for
developmentally disabled adults through the operation of residential facilities
located in Wakefield, Lynn, Lowell, Melrose, Dracut and Weymouth and an 8,000
square foot Training Center in Wakefield, Massachusetts. Community Group seeks
to develop within each client a sense of personal dignity, awareness of and
respect for human rights, the ability to adjust in social situations with peers
and others and to help each in attaining the highest possible degree of
independence. The support services currently offered by Community Group
comprise arranging psychological consultation and testing, counseling, speech
therapy and tutoring. Other services include on-call relationships with local
physicians, neurologists, audiologists, ophthalmologists, psychiatrists and
physical therapists and other appropriate professionals.

The programs offered by the Community Group are required to meet the
requirements of and obtain the approval of the following agencies: Massachusetts
Department of Social Services, Massachusetts Department of Mental Retardation,
Massachusetts Office for Children, Massachusetts Department of Special
Education. Annual contracts executed by Community Group and each of these
approved agencies, constitute in excess of 90% of the revenues received 

2
<PAGE>
 
by Community Group in fiscal year 1997. Contracts are executed as clients are
accepted by Community Group and funding is made by the respective agency.

Facilities operated by Community Group must comply with the licensing
requirements of the Department of Social Services and Mental Retardation and
meet the requirements of municipal building codes, health codes and local fire
codes. In granting and renewing a facility's license, a health agency considers,
among other things, the physical aspects (building and furnishings), the
qualifications of the administrative, direct care and other support staff, the
quality of care, training and service and the continuing compliance of such
facility with the laws and regulations applicable to its operations.

In general, the terms of the contracts by and between the above agencies and
Community Group, obligate Community Group  to provide residential and employment
training services for clients. Contracts typically have a one year term with
four options to renew for successive one year periods. At the end of the five
year period the contracts come up for competitive bidding. All client contracts
of The Community Group which have been competitively re-bid have been renewed
with The Community Group. Revenues are received by Community Group on a per day
rate basis, payable bi-monthly.

Contracts representing 67% of Community Group's gross revenue are due to be
rebid in fiscal year 1999. Contracts representing 15% of Community Group's gross
revenue  are due to be rebid in fiscal year 2000. Contracts representing the
remaining 18% of Community Group's gross revenue are due to be rebid in fiscal
year 2002.

If any of the above contracts with Community Group are terminated or fail to be
renewed or any health agency fails to renew any facility of The Community Group,
it could have a material adverse effect on the Registrant's business, financial
condition and results of operations.

(c)  BWS INTERNATIONAL, LTD.

BWS Group, Inc., an inactive wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant, was
organized as a Massachusetts corporation on February 22, 1983 to enter into the
business of retailing luxury women's fashions. Through its now inactive wholly
owned subsidiaries, BWS International, Inc. (a Delaware corporation), BSDJ, Inc.
(a Texas corporation) and BSNJ, Inc. (a New Jersey corporation), the registrant
operated retail stores in Boston, Massachusetts, Dallas, Texas and Short Hills,
New Jersey featuring Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) clothing and accessories. Due to
poor sales, all stores were closed by 1991 and the companies remain inactive.

EMPLOYMENT
Registrant employed 101 persons on September 30, 1997, all of whom were employed
by the Community Group.

REVENUES:

3
<PAGE>
 
The Department of Mental Retardation in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
accounted for in excess of 90% of the revenue received by Community Group in
1997 and 1996.  In 1995 it accounted for 92%.

WORKING CAPITAL:

The registrant experienced a severe working capital shortage during the period
1986 through 1987 creating a negative net worth. Cash shortages were funded by
personal loans aggregating $865,093 from David B. Slater, President and Board
Chairman and its principal stockholder and his wife Barbara Slater and by bank
refinancing of $680,000 personally guaranteed and collateralized by David and
Barbara Slater as a condition of the refinancing.

Principally because of these additional debt service requirements, working
capital shortfalls continued. These shortfalls were funded by Mr. Slater
allowing the Registrant to defer principal and interest payments, his salary,
and rent due on facilities leased by the Registrant from him, so that the
Registrant could meet its other obligations See "Certain Transactions."

COMPETITIVE CONDITION:

1.  The Community Group, Inc.:
    --------------------------
In accordance with governmental regulations, every five years, all health
service contracts including those of Community Group are offered to all
interested parties for competitive bidding. The Community Group must therefore
compete in price, service, and quality on each of its contracts. Contracts
representing 67% percent of Community Group's revenue are due to be rebid in
fiscal year 1999; 15% are due to be rebid in fiscal 2000 and the remaining 18%
are due to be rebid in fiscal 2002. Although since its inception in 1972,
Community Group has without interruption or exception been granted consecutive
contracts, there can be no assurance that Community Group will continue to be
granted renewals of its existing health service contracts and/or will be able to
enter into additional health service contracts on terms favorable to Community
Group. Failure of Community Group to renew such contracts or enter into
additional contracts would have a material adverse effect on the business,
financial condition and results of operation of  Community Group and the
Registrant.

2.  ABC Mobile:

ABC Mobile is a defendant with other defendants in lawsuit in California, no
motions or correspondence has taken place in this litigation in more that five
years.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Community Group, leases a single family residence in Wakefield,
Massachusetts owned by David B. Slater and his wife, a two family residence in
Weymouth, Massachusetts owned 50% by David B. Slater and his wife and two
apartments in a four apartment residential property in Wakefield, Massachusetts
owned 75% by David B. Slater and his wife. David B. Slater is President and
Chief Executive Officer and principal stockholder of the Registrant. Rents being
paid by The Community Group on the foregoing  properties which include the
requirement to

pay real estate taxes, maintenance and insurance costs, which the Registrant
believes are at fair market value are as follows:

</TABLE>

The monthly rents for each of the above facilities increases each 36 months by
approximately 10%. The registrant believes that existing facilities are adequate
for its near term needs.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Registrant's wholly owned subsidiary ABC Mobile Brake is a party in a
litigation in which no action has been taken in the last five years.

As of the date of this report the Registrant is aware of the following pending
legal proceedings to its inactive subsidiary, ABC Mobile Systems:

ABC Mobile is a defendant along with twenty (20) other defendants in an action
brought in the Superior Court of the State of California on November 22, 1985
by Edna Smith, et al., on behalf of the surviving members of the family of
Francis L. Smith for wrongful death, strict liability, negligence, fraud and
conspiracy. The plaintiffs in the action allege that a cause of the decedent's
death was his exposure to asbestos, part of which exposure was allegedly
sustained while an employee of an automobile repair and service station which
installed asbestos brake linings on customers' cars and which station on one
singular occasion was a customer of an ABC Mobile Brake franchise owner. The
plaintiff seeks a sum in excess of $15,000, legal costs and damages. The
Registrant is not a party to this suit.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.

Overview:
---------
100% of the Registrant's revenue is generated from its wholly owned subsidiary
Community Group, Inc.  Community Group, Inc. operates as a provider of
habilitative and training services to developmentally disabled adults.

Currently there are 24 residential facilities and a training center in greater
Boston. Community Group, Inc. has 101 employees. The Community Group receives
its income substantially through governmental contracts for the care of
developmentally disabled adults.

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

The Registrant operates on approved annual budgets substantially funded by
contracts with governmental agencies.  As a result of previous losses the
Registrant has a negative net worth, limited liquidity, and no operational debt
facility. Working capital needs have been met by advances from David Slater,
President and Board Chairman.

First Mutual, Inc. for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997, the
Registrant's consolidated revenues were $3,358,161 resulting in income from
operations of $130,178 and net income of $73,433 .

Community Group, Inc. had for fiscal year ended September 30, 1997 operating
income of $177,445  before interest expense of $13,570 resulting in net income
of $163,875.

During fiscal year ended September 30, 1997 Community Group continued
implementing a new supported living program for some of its clients. Under the
concept of supported living, clients lead a more independent, less supervised
lifestyle.  Community Group during fiscal 1997 continued to expand by providing
additional supported living services.

The Registrant's expense structure is controlled through contracts with
governmental agencies. Budgets are predetermined and monitored. The Registrant
does no marketing. Any excess cash is invested in simple interest bearing bank
accounts. The Registrant has a debt  of $525,411 with an interest rate of 9.5%
as of September 30, 1997. The Registrant does not conduct any financing
operations.

<PAGE>
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESERVES:
Cash flows in fiscal 1997 were stable. In 1986 - 1987 the Registrant
experienced a severe cash shortage. Those shortages were met by:

1)   Loans to the Registrant, aggregating $865,093, payable on demand with
     interest at 2% over the rate charged the Registrant on that bank's loan to
     David B. Slater, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Registrant
     and his wife, Barbara W. Slater.

2)   Bank refinancing of $680,000. In connection with this refinancing, David B.
     Slater, principal stockholder and President and Chief Financial Officer of
     the registrant and his wife, Barbara W. Slater were required by the bank to
     personally guarantee and collaterize $227,000 (1/3/rd/) of this loan.

3)   David B. Slater allowed the Registrant to defer payments of principal and
     interest payments, salary and rents due the Slaters.

In return for their $865,093 loan to the Registrant and guarantee and
collateralization of its bank refinancing at that time, as well as for allowing
the Registrant to defer payments of principal and interest payments, rents due
of facilities leased by the registrant from Mr. Slater and salary due as
required by the cash flow of the registrant, the Registrant granted Warrants to
purchase a total of 2,569,358 shares of the Registrant's common stock to David
B. Slater and Barbara W. Slater at an exercise price of $.10 per share.

On January 2, 1997, Mr. and Mrs. Slater exercised all of the applicable
Warrants, increasing their aggregate ownership in the Registrant to 86.63%. In
view of the above debt repayment requirements the Registrant has not generated
any surplus cash and/or liquidity.

In the future, management of the Registrant expects to reduce costs in Community
Group, expand into new similar programs and negotiate future increases in rates
under state contracts.

ABC Mobile Systems and BWS Group, Inc. have ceased operations permanently.

CASH FLOWS:
The Registrant operates on budgets with governmental agencies. Cash flows from
these contractual obligations allow for limited annual expansion of programs.

As of September 30, 1997, the balance owed by the registrant to David and
Barbara Slater  is $103,571.  David and Barbara Slater have also guaranteed
$227,000 of an additional $680,000 bank loan to the Registrant which has a
principal balance of $525,411 at September 30, 1997. The note is due and payable
06/15/98. If the Registrant fails to refinance, the Registrant does not have
sufficient capital to remain in operations.

There are no unused sources of liquidity.

First Mutual, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 1997


NATURE OF BUSINESS AND STATUS OF OPERATIONS

First Mutual, Inc. formerly Mutual Enterprises Incorporated (Mutual), currently
has only one operating subsidiary, Community Group, Inc., which was organized in
Massachusetts in 1972 and provides rehabilitation and residential services for
mentally retarded adults.  The company operates residence facilities and a
sheltered training center.

Substantially all of the Company's revenues arise from contractual services
provided to and negotiated with the Massachusetts Department of Mental
Retardation.

Losses in past years, due primarily to insufficient occupancy levels, had
contributed to a condition where current liabilities substantially exceed
current assets.  The deficiency has been funded by personal advances and bank
loans partially personally guaranteed by David B. Slater.  These advances
originally amounted to $928,000 and currently are $103,571 at September 30,
1997.  Also see notes 4 and 5.
