                      CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT of CASH FLOWS
                For the Nine Months Ended June 30, 1999 and 1998

NOTE 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all
adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the balance sheet of EMB Corporation and subsidiaries as of June
30, 1999, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 respectively.  These consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of EMB Corporation and its subsidiary companies
(together "the Company").

Going Concern

Through June 30, 1999 and continuing in fiscal 1999, the Company has incurred
significant losses. At June 30 1999, the Company has a working capital deficit
of $6.3 million, which includes approximately a $2.7 million liability to
federal and state agencies for employee and employer payroll taxes. The Company
dramatically reduced its operation on or about December 22, 1998 to
significantly reduce the losses from operations. The Company has been relatively
inactive in fiscal 1999. Management is currently funding its operations through
loans from affiliates and/or officers. The Company requires immediate proceeds
from a financing or from the sale of its land to meet its current obligations.
Management is seeking private equity and debt capital, as well as seeking to
find a buyer for its land in Monterey County, California. There are no
assurances that proceeds from the sources discussed above will be available on
acceptable terms or available at all. These factors raise substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

Certain 1998 amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period
presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net
income.

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 2 to the
Company's financial statements as stated in its report on Form 10-KSB for the
fiscal year ended September 30, 1998.

NOTE 2.  LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic and dilutive loss per common share is based on the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during the period.  Outstanding options and
warrants have not been included in the calculation of the weighted average
shares outstanding since their effects are anti-dilutive.


NOTE 3 - WAREHOUSE LINE OF CREDIT

The Company had an agreement with a national lender whereby the lender extended
a $25 million warehouse line of credit to the Company solely for the purpose of
funding residential mortgage loans.  Interest was charged based on the lender's
referenced prime rate plus 0.5% per annum. During the second quarter of 1999,
the obligation was fully satisfied upon termination of the agreement.

                For the Nine Months Ended June 30, 1999 and 1998

The Company also had a master commitment with such lender totaling $150 million
during fiscal 1998 which was subsequently increased to $500 million.  The master
commitment allowed the Company to fund loans of jumbo and conforming residential
first and second mortgages, and sell the loans to the lender.  The master loan
commitment was terminated concurrently with the warehouse line of credit above.

NOTE 4.  SHAREHOLDERS' DEFICIT

During the nine months ended June 30, 1998, certain holders of the Series A
convertible preferred and Series B convertible preferred elected to convert
certain of their interests into common stock.  As a result, the Company had
13,513 of its Series A convertible preferred stock and 97,500 shares of its
Series B convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding as of June 30, 1999.

During the three and nine months ended June 30, 1999, the Company issued
2,450,000 and 6,885,263 shares of common stock valued at $1,890,549 and
$3,568,547, respectively, to certain consultants and advisors for services
provided.

NOTE 5.  SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS

On May 7, 1999, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement whereby it
has agreed to purchase all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of
American Residential Funding ("AMRES") in exchange for 2,000,000 shares of the
Company's common stock fairly valued at $1,567,230. In addition, the Company
issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,250,000 shares of common stock at
amounts ranging from $0.85 to $3.00 per share. These warrants were valued at
$1,442,500 and included as additional purchase consideration. The agreement was
accounted for under the purchase method with the excess of the fair value over
the net assets acquired of $2,943,413 allocated to goodwill.

On May 7, 1999, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement whereby it
has agreed to purchase all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of
Residential Mortgage Corp ("RMC") in exchange for 600,000 shares of the
Company's common stock fairly valued at $470,169.  The agreement was accounted
for under the purchase method with the excess of the fair value over the net
assets acquired of $470,169 allocated to goodwill.

Refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended September
30, 1998, for events subsequent to June 30, 1999.

                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS.

GENERAL

In fiscal 1998, the Company expanded its mortgage banking operations through its
acquisition of Investment Consultants, Inc. ("ICI"). In fiscal 1999, the Company
ceased its mortgage banking operations of EMB and divested itself of ICI due to
an economic downturn in the mortgage banking industry. Later in fiscal 1999, the
Company recommenced its mortgage banking operations through acquisitions of
AMRES and RMC. EMB Mortgage is no longer in operation.

LOAN ORIGINATIONS AND PURCHASES

The Company decreased its funded mortgage loan volume to approximately
$80,000,000 during the nine month period ended June 30, 1999, as compared to
$329,848,538 for the nine month period ended June 30, 1998, representing a
decrease of 76%. This decrease in mortgage loan volume appears to be continuing
primarily due to the cessation of the operations of EMB Mortgage.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended June 30,1999 compared with three months ended June 30,1998:

Mortgage loan revenues, net of commitment fees, decreased 91% to $406,923 in the
three month period ended June 30,1999 from $4,397,814 in 1998. Revenues were
generated primarily from loan processing and resale of mortgage loans. The
decrease in revenues was attributable to the ceasing of operations of EMB
Mortgage and the rescission of the Investment Consultants acquisition.

General and administrative expenses increased to $2,553,707 in the three month
period ended June 30,1999 from $1,823,526 in 1998. This increase is principally
attributable to expenses related to the issuance of common stock for various
consulting and financing services during the current period.

The net loss was $2,521,507 during the three month period ended June 30, 1999,
as compared with net income of $113,216 during the same period of 1998, due
primarily due to the Company ceasing the operations of EMB Mortgage.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's capital resources have historically been provided by cash from
financing activities, primarily from the sale of its preferred stock and
warrants, and through convertible debt instruments and warrants. Due to the
extended losses incurred by the Company, its cash was being depleted rapidly
from operations. At June 30, 1999, the Company had a working capital deficit of
$6.3 million. The Company reduced its operation on or about December 22, 1998 to
significantly reduce the losses and cash flows from operations. The Company has
been relatively inactive during the current fiscal year. Management is currently
funding its operations through loans from affiliates and/or officers. No cash
flows have been generated through the sale of common or preferred stock, or
convertible debt securities in fiscal 1999 and management does not believe such
capital will be available to them. Management currently believes its sole source
of repayment of its obligations will come from the sale of its land in Monterey
County, California. There are no assurances that the sale will be completed, if
at all. The Company has been in negotiations, however, no reasonable offers have
been tendered to management. These factors raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying


                                       8
<PAGE>

financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

As of June 30, 1999, the Company has notes payable to unrelated parties in the
total amount of approximately $1,221,700.  There are no assurance that the this
remaining indebtedness will be paid from its cash flow from the sale of the
Company's land located in Monterey County or an equity of debt financing.

ITEM 2.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
