                   BISHOP CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)



1. Basis of Presentation

   The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in
   the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial
   position at June 30, 2000 and results of operations for the interim periods
   ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring
   nature. The interim results presented are not necessarily indicative of
   results that can be expected for a full year. Although the Company believes
   that the disclosures in the accompanying financial statements are adequate to
   make the information presented not misleading, certain information and
   footnote information normally included in financial statements prepared in
   accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed
   or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
   Exchange Commission, and these financial statements should be read in
   conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements
   included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended March 31, 2000.

2. Revenue Recognition

   Sales of real estate generally are accounted for under the full accrual
   method. Under that method, gain is not recognized until the collectibility of
   the sales price is reasonably assured and the earnings process is virtually
   complete. When a sale does not meet the requirements for income recognition,
   gain is deferred until those requirements are met. Sales of real estate are
   accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method when the Company has
   material obligations under sales contracts to provide improvements after the
   property is sold. Under the percentage-of-completion method, the gain on sale
   is recognized as the related obligations are fulfilled.

   In  connection   with  the  real  estate   sales,   the  Company  used  the
   percentage-of- completion method to determine the amount of gross profit to
   be recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 as follows:

   The deferred revenue of $658,920 is reflected as a liability in the Company's
   balance sheet at June 30, 2000 and will be recognized as the related site
   development work obligations are completed.

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




   The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
   Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

   Forward-Looking Statements

   The following discussion of this report may contain certain forward-looking
   statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
   of 1995, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
   Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is subject to the
   safe harbors created by those sections. Such forward-looking statements are
   subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, which could cause actual
   results to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such
   forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements within this report
   are identified by words such as "believes," "anticipates," "expects,"
   "intends," "may" and other similar expressions. However, these words are not
   the exclusive means of identifying such statements. In addition, any
   statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations
   of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. The
   following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
   Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes included
   elsewhere herein.

   Results of Operations

   The Company's results of operations are dependent primarily on the sale of
   real estate which is affected by national and local economic and competitive
   conditions, including interest rates, construction costs, governmental
   regulations and legislation, availability of financing and other factors. In
   addition, the Company competes with other owners and developers with greater
   resources and experience.

   The Company's net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $269,500
   compared to net income of $6,000 for the comparable period in 1999. The
   decrease in the current quarter is primarily attributable to a decrease in
   real estate sales. The Company, in the current quarter, sold one lot in its
   Creekside Center at Galley, but deferred the revenue until development
   obligations are completed.

   General and administrative expenses decreased $600 or less than 1% for the
   three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999. The
   decrease is due to a general reduction in overhead expenses.

   Net gas royalty income increased $31,900 or 252% for the three months ended
   June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999. Natural gas production for
   the three months ended June 30, 2000 was 18,000 mcf compared to 12,300 mcf
   for the comparable period in 1999. The 252% increase in production is
   primarily due to additional wells producing and a second gas processing plant
   going on-line combined with an increase in natural gas prices. The average
   sales price of natural gas increased 40% ($2.37 per mcf compared to $1.69 per
   mcf) for the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in
   1999. Gas processing costs and production taxes decreased 55% ($2300 for the
   current quarter compared to $5,100 in the comparable 1999 quarter).

                                       6

<PAGE>


   Interest and dividend income decreased $3,500 or 38% for the three months
   ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 due to the sale of
   U.S. Treasury obligations.

   Rental income increased $1,200 in the current quarter compared to the same
   period in 1999 due to annual increases in the leases of offices in the
   Company's office building.

   The net unrealized loss on marketable securities of $199,000 for the three
   months ended June 30, 2000 represents the net change in the market value of
   the trading securities portfolio from March 31, 2000.

   Equity in limited partnership income decreased $2,600 for the three months
   ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999, due to the
   termination of the ground lease in March 2000.

   Interest expense decreased $2,900 for the three months ended June 30, 2000
   compared to the same period in 1999 due to decreased borrowings under the
   bank line of credit and a decrease in the margin balance payable to a broker.

   Financial Condition

   At June 30, 2000, the Company had working capital of $123,784.

   The following summary table reflects comparative quarterly cash flows for the
   Company as follows:

                                                        Three Months Ended
                                                              June 30,
                                                     ------------------------
                                                        2000          1999
                                                     ---------      ---------
     Net cash provided by (used in):
          Operating activities                       $  66,900      $ (14,500)
          Investing activities                          (1,500)         1,300
          Financing activities                          (2,500)         9,400

   The Company had positive cash flows from operating activities of $66,900 for
   the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to net cash used in operating
   activities of $(14,500) for the comparable period in 1999. The increase in
   operating cash flows was due primarily to the sale of real estate property in
   Colorado Springs in the current period.

   Net cash used in investing activities of $1,500 for the three months ended
   June 30, 2000 resulted primarily from the purchase of property and equipment
   of $2,500 and the proceeds from collection of notes receivable. For the three
   months ended June 30, 1999, net cash provided by investing activities of
   $1,300 resulted from proceeds from collection of notes receivable.

                                       7


<PAGE>



   For the three months ended June 30, 2000, the Company made bank payments of
   $2,500. The Company had bank borrowings of $12,000 and repayment of bank
   borrowings of $2,600 from financing activities for the three months ended
   June 30, 1999.

   The Company's material commitments for capital expenditures in the next
   twelve months may be in conjunction with undeveloped land in Colorado
   Springs, Colorado related to (1) the Phase III development of approximately 9
   acres in The Crossings at Palmer Park Center, (2) a proposed 350 unit
   apartment complex on 18 acres and (3) the development work consisting of
   grading, utilities, storm sewers, and paving and curb and gutter of Phase I
   of Creekside Center.

   When the Company develops Phase III in The Crossing at Palmer Park Center, it
   will incur development costs for utilities, storm sewer, paving and
   additional drainage channel improvements. The Company will not commence this
   development until it has closed on a Phase III lot sale to fund the estimated
   on-site and off-site development costs of approximately $250,000.

   In connection with the proposed apartment complex, the Company may have to
   loan Creekside Apartments, LLLP, under terms of the partnership agreement, up
   to $85,000 for costs associated with the rezoning process and other
   partnership matters. The Company anticipates that the loan advances, if any,
   will be funded from either working capital or cash proceeds that may be
   available from lot sales.

   The Company has closed on the sale of one lot and has a second lot under
   contract in the Creekside Center at Galley, Phase I. The Company will
   commence site development of Phase I off-site and on-site improvements
   (grading, utilities, storm sewer and paving) with an approximate cost of
   $400,000. The Company is aggressively marketing the remaining lots in Phase I
   and the undeveloped 12 acre parcel.

   The Company believes that existing working capital will be sufficient to fund
   the Company's operations, exclusive of real estate development expenditures,
   during the next twelve months. Real estate development expenditures will be
   funded by proceeds from retail lot sales.
