ITEM 2   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

         The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and
results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company's
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere herein.
The statements disclosed herein include forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company's actual results
could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements
as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to,
the Company's historical lack of profitability, the Company's need for
additional financing, competition in the finance industry for franchising
companies and retail automobile and truck repair service, and other risks
detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

OVERVIEW

         Tilden Associates, Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware Corporation. Its
principal business is to sell automotive franchises and to administer and
support full service automotive repair centers carrying its trademarks. The
Company's operations are based at 1325 Franklin Avenue, Suite 165, Garden City,
New York, 11530.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 vs Three Months Ended June 30, 1999

         Revenue decreased to $214,000 in the second quarter of 2000 from
$387,000 in the second quarter of 1999, representing a 45% decrease. The
decrease in revenue during the second quarter of 2000 was predominately
attributed to 1) the greater level of equipment sales to franchisees during the
second quarter of 1999, and 2) the absence of retail sales of Company owned
stores during the year 2000, which while owned during the second quarter of
1999, generated revenue during that period.

         Operating costs decreased to $55,000 in the second quarter of 2000 from
$190,000 in the second quarter of 1999, a 71% decrease. As a percentage of
revenue, operating costs decreased to 26% in the second quarter of 2000 from 49%
in the second quarter of 1999. The decrease is primarily attributable to
equipment sales in 1999. This equipment was sold to franchisees at minimal gross
profit. Accordingly, these sales, amounting to $131,000, increased revenues with
an equal corresponding increase in cost of sales. This resulted in a decrease in
the Company's overall gross profit percentage.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $203,000 in
the second quarter of 2000 from $240,000 in the second quarter of 1999, a 15%
decrease. This decrease is primarily due to decreases in the cost of operations
of Company owned stores of $22,000, salaries of $24,000 and loss on sale of
subsidiaries of $17,000 offset by increases in bad debt expense of $18,000 and
consulting expenses of $7,000. The decrease in the cost of operations of Company
owned stores was due to the sale of two stores during the second and third
quarter of 1999. The loss on sale of subsidiaries corresponds to the sale of a
subsidiary during July of 1999. The decrease in salaries was primarily due to
personnel hired in 1999 in connection with Company owned stores. Upon the sale
of these stores, such personnel were discontinued. The increase in bad debt

                                       7

<PAGE>

expense was due to a more conservative policy toward evaluating the Company's
receivables, as well as to an increase in the volume of receivables generated
from royalty income. The increase in consulting expense in 2000 was due to a
consultant engaged by the Company for training and assisting of franchisees.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 vs Six Months Ended June 30, 1999

         Revenue decreased to $492,000 through the second quarter of 2000 from
$529,000 through the second quarter of 1999, representing a 7% decrease. The
decrease in revenue during the first six months of 2000 was predominately
attributed to 1) the greater level of equipment sales to franchisees through the
second quarter of 1999, and 2) the absence of retail sales of Company owned
stores during the year 2000, which while owned during the second quarter of
1999, generated revenue during that period. These decreases were significantly
offset by increases in all other areas of revenue, including area development
fees, royalties and rental income.

         Operating costs decreased to $119,000 during the first six months of
2000 from $234,000 during the same period of 1999, a 49% decrease. As a
percentage of revenue, operating costs decreased to 24% during the first six
months of 2000 from 44% during the same period of 1999. The decrease is
primarily attributable to equipment sales in 1999. This equipment was sold to
franchisees at minimal gross profit. Accordingly, these sales, amounting to
$138,000, decreased revenues with an equal corresponding decrease in cost of
sales. This resulted in a decrease in the Company's overall gross profit
percentage.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $447,000 for
the first six months of 2000 from $464,000 during the first six months of 1999,
a 4% decrease. This decrease is primarily due to decreases in the cost of
operations of Company owned stores of $63,000, and loss on sale of subsidiaries
of $53,000 offset by increases in professional fees of $49,000, bad debt expense
of $36,000 and consulting expense of $9,000. The decrease in the cost of
operations of Company owned stores was due to the sale of two Company owned
stores during the second and third quarters of 1999. The loss on sale of
subsidiaries corresponds to the sale of a subsidiary during July of 1999. The
increase in professional fees was primarily due to greater than anticipated
costs in connection with the audit of the Company's 1999 financial statements
and preparation of Form 10 to become a reporting entity in compliance with SEC
regulations. The increase in bad debt expense was due to the Company's change to
a more conservative policy in evaluating receivables, as well as to an increase
in the volume of receivables generated from royalty income. The increase in
consulting expense in 2000 was due to a consultant engaged by the Company for
training and assisting of franchisees.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Working capital at June 30, 2000 was $555,000, compared to working
capital of $581,000 at December 31, 1999. The ratio of current assets to current
liabilities was 4.3:1 at June 30, 2000 and 3.7:1 at December 31, 1999. Cash flow
used for operations through the second quarter of 2000 was $67,000, compared to
cash flow provided by operations through the second quarter of 1999, of
$148,000.

         Accounts receivable - trade increased to $277,000 at June 30, 2000 from
$199,000 at December 31, 1999.

                                       8

<PAGE>

         Accounts payable decreased to $63,000 at June 30, 2000 from $104,000 at
December 31, 1999.

         Although the Company plans to continue to expand to the extent that
resources are available, the Company has no firm commitments for capital
expenditures in other areas of its business.

         The Company believes that it may not have sufficient liquidity to meet
its operating cash requirements for the current level of operations during the
remainder of 2000. Accordingly, the Company may require additional financing.
There can be no assurance that financing will be available, or if available, on
terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to fund its operating
cash flow needs, the Company may be required to substantially curtail
operations.

         The Company currently has a bank line of credit amounting to $200,000.
At June 30, 2000, all of the credit line was available.
