INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
We have audited the consolidating balance sheet of Promotora de Franquicias
Praxis, S.A. de C.V. and selected subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and the
related consolidating statements of income (loss), changes in stockholders'
equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit
the financial statement of Praxis Afinaciones en Puerto Rico Inc. and its
respective subsidiaries, which statements reflect total assets of $320,587 as of
December 31, 1997 and total revenues of $49,510 for the year then ended. Those
statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us,
and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Praxis
Afinaciones en Puerto Rico, Inc. and its respective subsidiaries, is based
solely on the report of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Promotora de Franquicias
Praxis, S.A. de C.V. and selected subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
consolidating basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying
supplementary information is presented for purposes of additional analysis and
is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has
been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic
financial statements.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Inventory Method - Inventories of the Mexican companies are stated
at replacement cost which approximates the lower of first-in
first-out basis cost or market. The inventory of the Puerto Rico
company and its subsidiary is stated at the lower of cost,
determined by the first-in first-out basis, or market.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain
reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Franchise Revenue Recognition - Revenue from sales of individual
franchises is generally recognized in four stages when
substantially all significant services to be provided by the
company at each of these four stages have been performed.
NOTE 3 - FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS
In July 1992, Praxis Afinaciones, S.A. de C.V. acquired the
exclusive franchise agreements to establish and operate "Precision
Tune Centers" Automobile Service Centers for a period of 20 years
in the Mexican Republic. In November 1997, the company acquired the
same franchise rights for Puerto Rico, operated by Praxis
Afinaciones, Puerto Rico, Inc.
In Mexico, revenue from the sales of individual franchises is
generally recognized in four stages when substantially all
significant service to be provided by the company has been
performed. The company pays the franchisor an opening fee of $500
to $5,000, on a sliding scale, on the first eighty franchises sold
until a total of $205,000 of such fees have been paid. Opening fees
were expensed in the amount of $52,500 during the year ended
December 31, 1997. In addition, the company must pay the franchisor
a royalty fee of 1% to 2%, on a sliding scale, of gross revenues
earned by the company's franchisees in Mexico.

NOTE 8 - CORRECTION OF REVENUE FROM SALE OF FRANCHISES
During 1997, Praxis Afinaciones, S.A. de C.V. corrected the
recording of revenue from the sale of franchises. Previously,
franchise fees had been recognized as revenue at the time payment
was received. As a result of the correction, revenue from the sale
of franchises is recognized in four phases over the period from the
signing of the franchise agreement to the opening of the franchise,
thereby resulting in a better matching of cost and revenue by
period.
The resulting correction for 1996 had the effect of reducing 1996
revenues by $103,437 (a prior period adjustment was made for this
item) and increasing 1997 revenues by a corresponding amount. The
resulting adjustment for 1997 had the effect of reducing 1997
revenues by $199,881 and increasing future revenues by a
corresponding amount. The net effect on 1997 was a revenue decrease
of $96,444. Periods prior to 1996 were not materially affected by
this change.
NOTE 9 - OBLIGATIONS UNDER CAPITALIZED LEASES
Praxis Afinaciones Puerto Rico, Inc. and subsidiary lease vehicles,
machinery and shop equipment under capitalized lease agreements
that expire in 2001 and 2002. The corresponding assets and
liabilities under the capitalized lease agreements were recorded at
a reasonable value for the leased property or, if it went lower, at
the present value of the minimum payments stipulated in the lease
agreements. Capitalized lease property totaling $90,730 is included
in machinery and equipment in the accompanying consolidating
balance sheet.

NOTE 11 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Praxis Autopartes, S.A. de C.V. had sales to the subsidiaries of
Praxis Afinaciones, S.A. de C.V. which were eliminated in the
previously combined statements of selected subsidiaries in the
amount of $202,104 at December 31, 1997. Management and other
fees charged by Promotora to the selected subsidiaries have been
eliminated in the accompanying consolidating income statement.
NOTE 12 - ADVERTISING EXPENSE
For the year ended December 31, 1997, the advertising expense for
Praxis Afinaciones, S.A. de C.V. and subsidiaries were $185,279.
Advertising expenses for Praxis Afinaciones Puerto Rico, Inc. for
the year ended December 31, 1997 was $16,567.
NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are recorded for tax effects of transactions reported
in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due or
receivable plus deferred taxes due or receivable. The deferred tax
assets shown on the accompanying combined balance sheets reflect
the future benefit from unused operating loss carryforwards
available at December 31, 1997, which expire through 2007 for the
Mexican companies and through 2012 for the Puerto Rican companies.
For the Mexican companies, these tax benefits arise from the fact
that tax basis income or loss is arrived at using actual
purchases, rather than cost of sales. Because of the potential
significance of this timing difference in decreasing tax basis
income, it is not unusual for Mexican companies to show benefits
from income taxes (computed at 34% of the tax basis loss) that
appear unusually high in relation to financial statement income or
loss before taxes.
The deferred tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 1997 was
$513,194. Because the deferred tax asset relating to the future
tax benefit of operating loss carryforwards had not been
previously reflected on the company's financial statements, it was
necessary to make a prior period adjustment at December 31, 1997
of $427,466 ($253,200 for Promotora and $174,266 for the
consolidated subsidiaries).

NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES (Continued)
A reserve of $246,639 has been established against the Promotora
deferred tax benefit of $499,839 for a net deferred tax benefit of
$253,200. This net deferred tax asset represents the tax effect of
the sale of the unconsolidated subsidiaries (see Note 14) and of
the discount to be realized on the payment of accrued interest
payable (see Note 5).
NOTE 14 - FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Because Mexico meets the definition of a hyper-inflationary
economy, the balance sheets and income statements of all Mexican
entities included in the accompanying combined financial
statements have been translated into dollars using both current
and historical rates of exchange.
The net adjustment for foreign currency translation reflected in
the stockholders' equity section of the accompanying consolidating
balance sheet was $(582,569) at December 31, 1997.
Although the exchange rate change subsequent to the financial
statement date has been significant (from 8.064 to 1 at December
31, 1997 to 8.564 to 1 as of March 20, 1998), no attempt has been
made to reflect the effect of this change on the accompanying
financial statements.
NOTE 15 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In March 1998, Promotora entered into contracts to sell all of its
stock in the "Other Subsidiaries" indicated in Note 1 on the

The tax effect of the sale, at the effective 34% rate, will be
$121,820.
NOTE 16 - RISK AND UNCERTAINTIES
The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of
estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses. Such estimates primarily
relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the
financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results
may differ from estimated amounts.
