                      THE HAVANA GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


Note 1. Business Description and Principles of Consolidation

     The Havana Group,  Inc. (Havana) is in the mail order business and sells to
customers  throughout  the United  States.  The Company sells  tobacco,  cigars,
smoking  pipes  and  accessories.  Products  are  purchased  from a  variety  of
manufacturers. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The
Havana  Group,  Inc.,  and its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Monarch  Pipe Company
(collectively, "the Company"). Monarch manufactures smoking pipes and sells them
exclusively to Havana.  All significant  inter-compan  accounts and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

     A. The accompanying  unaudited  financial  statements have been prepared by
the Company.  Certain information and footnote  disclosures normally included in
financial  statements  prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles  have been  condensed  or omitted.  In the  opinion of the  Company's
management,  the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented
not  misleading,   and  the  consolidated   financial   statements  contain  all
adjustments  necessary to present  fairly the financial  position as of June 30,
1999,  the results of operations for the three month and six month periods ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998,  and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30,
1999 and 1998. The results of operations for the three and six month periods are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

     Per Share Amounts - The number of shares outstanding in computing basic and
diluted earnings per shares for the three month and six month periods ended June
30,  1999 were  1,860,000;  for 1998 the  number of shares  were  1,444,176  and
1,223,315 respectively.

     B. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

     In June 1999,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  (FASB)  issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS) No. 137,  "Accounting  for
Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date
of FASB  Statement  No. 133 - an  amendment  of FASB  Statement  No. 133," which
postponed  the  effective  date of SFAS  No.  133,  "Accounting  for  Derivative
Financial  Instruments  and Hedging  Activities,"  to all fiscal years beginning
after June 15,  2000.  The Company  does not  anticipate  having  these types of
hedges, and the effect of adoption is expected to be immaterial.

     The  Accounting   Standards   Executive   Committee   issued  Statement  of
Position(SOP) 98-1,  "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or
Obtained for Internal  Use," and SOP 98-5,  "Reporting  on the Costs of Start-Up
Activities,"  which are effective for years  beginning  after Dec. 31, 1998. The
Company's  adoption  of SOP  98-1 and SOP 98-5  had no  material  effect  on its
results of operations or financial position.

Note 3. Agreement with Affiliated Company

     Effective  January 1, 1997, the Company  contracted  with Kids Stuff,  Inc.
("Kids"),  a subsidiary of Duncan Hill,  Inc., to provide  telemarketing,  order
fulfillment,  data processing and certain administrative  functions. The Company
is  charged  for  its  portion  of the  expenses  on a  direct  cost  basis,  as
applicable, or on a pro rata basis. Actual costs are those direct costs that can
be charged on a per order or per hour basis,  fixed costs are allocated on a pro
rata basis by dividing  the total  assets of the Company by the sum of the total
assets of the Company and Kids.  Effective  January 1, 1998, the Company renewed
this  contract  with Kids at an annual cost of  approximately  $206,100  for the
administrative,   executive  and  accounting  services,   and  $2.40  per  order
processed. The Company is also obligated to pay 5% of its 1998 pre-tax profit to
Kids in connection with these administrative and fulfillment services.


<PAGE>
     At  January  1,  1999  the   agreement  was  modified  and  extended  on  a
month-to-month  basis  as the  Company  began  to  incur  direct  costs  for its
administrative  functions.  The  Company  pays  to  Kids  an  accounting,   data
processing,  and  administrative  charge  of  $15,000  per year  plus  $1.75 per
shipment for  warehouse  services.  The Company is also obliged to pay 5% of its
1999 pretax profits to Kids in connection with these services.

     Through June 30, 1999, the Company's  accounts  receivable and  inventories
are pledged as collateral on Kids line of credit,  and the Company also acted as
a guarantor.  In July 1999 the  Company's  liability was released as a part of a
general  restructuring of the Kids line of credit.  At June 30, 1999 the balance
on the line of credit was $762,000.

Note 4. Stockholders' Equity

Common Stock

     The Havana  Group,  Inc.  has  25,000,000  shares of $.001 par value common
stock  authorized.  In  connection  with a  reorganization,  the Company  issued
1,000,000  common shares to its parent,  Duncan Hill, Inc. The holders of Common
shares are entitled to one vote on all stockholder matters.

     The Company is not currently subject to any contractual  arrangements which
restricts  its  ability to pay cash  dividends.  The  Company's  Certificate  of
Incorporation  prohibits the payment of cash  dividends on the Company's  Common
Stock in excess of $.05 per share per year so long as any Serial Preferred Stock
remains  outstanding unless all accrued and unpaid dividends on Serial Preferred
Stock  has been set  apart  and there  are no  arrearages  with  respect  to the
redemption of any Serial Preferred Stock.

     In May 1998, the Company  completed an initial public offering (see Note 7)
in which  460,000 units were sold.  Each unit  consisted of one common share and
two Class A warrants.  In May 1998, the Company issued 400,000 common shares and
1,400,000 Class A warrants relative to a bridge loan conversion (see Note 4E).

     B. Series A Preferred Stock

     The Board of Directors has the  authority to issue up to 10,000,000  shares
of  Preferred  Stock in one or more series and to fix all  rights,  preferences,
privileges,  and  restrictions.  In December,  1997,  the Company  issued,  as a
dividend to Duncan  Hill,  Inc.,  5,000,000  shares of Series A Preferred  Stock
(Series A) to Duncan  Hill,  Inc.  The Series A holders are entitled to one vote
for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders.  The
Series A stock is not  subject to  redemption  and has no  conversion  rights or
rights to  participate  in dividend  payments.  In the event of any voluntary or
involuntary  liquidation  of the  Company,  each  share of  Series A stock has a
liquidation preference of $.001 per share.

     C. Series B Preferred Stock

     In December,  1997,  the Company  issued  1,100,000  shares of its Series B
Convertible  Preferred  Stock (Series B) to Duncan Hill. In return,  Duncan Hill
assumed a $300,000  liability due to an affiliate.  Series B has the same voting
privileges as the Common Stock. Each share of Series B stock is convertible into
one share of the  Company's  Common  Stock at the option of either the holder or
the Company upon reaching net pre-tax earnings of at least $500,000. If declared
by the  Board of  Directors,  Series B  shareholders  are  entitled  to  receive
quarterly  dividends of no more than $.025 per share,  payable out of surplus or
net profits of the Company. As of August 9, 1999, the Board of Directors has not
declared  any  dividends.  As the Series B Preferred  pays a $.10  dividend  per
share, the Company has recorded the Series B stock at $1.00 per share to reflect
its estimated fair value.  The Series B stock is not subject to  redemption.  In
the event of a voluntary or involuntary  liquidation of the Company,  each share
of Series B stock has a liquidation  preference of $.001,  which is subordinated
to the liquidation preference of the Series A stock.
<PAGE>
     D. Class A Warrants

     As  of  June  30,  1999,  the  Company  has  2,658,000   Class  A  Warrants
outstanding,  which is comprised of 920,000 warrants  included in the units sold
in the  initial  public  offering  (see Note 8);  1,400,000  warrants  issued in
connection with the conversion of a note payable (see Note 4E); 138,000 warrants
issued to Duncan Hill in  replacement of warrants  issued in conjunction  with a
reorganization; and 200,000 warrants issued to Mr. William Miller, the Company's
CEO.

     Each Class A Warrant  entitles  the holder to purchase  one share of common
stock at a price of $5.25 and expires May 2003. The Company may redeem the Class
A Warrants at a price of $.10 per warrant effective May 1999, upon not less than
30 days' prior written notice,  if the closing bid price of the common stock has
been at least  $10.50 per share for 20  consecutive  trading days ending no more
that the 15th day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is given

     E. Issuance of Securities in Note Conversion

     In January 1998, the Company  borrowed  $100,000 from a private investor in
exchange for a convertible  promissory note (Convertible  Note). The Convertible
Note bore  interest at 8% per annum and was  converted  into  400,000  shares of
Common Stock and 1,400,000 warrants.  The beneficial  conversion feature (in the
amount of $3,350,000) of the note was recognized as additional  paid-in  capital
and charged to interest expense during 1998.

Note 5. Bridge Loan

     In January 1998, the Company  borrowed  $100,000 from one private  investor
evidenced by a promissory  note of $100,000.  This is the same private  investor
mentioned in Note 4E, "Sale of Unregistered  Securities." The note bore interest
at 8% per annum and was paid on May 22, 1998 out of  proceeds  of the  Company's
initial public offering.

Note 6. Employment Agreement

     In  December  1997,  the Company  and its CEO  entered  into an  employment
agreement,  which  among other  terms,  granted  the CEO  200,000  Common  Stock
Purchase  Warrants at $6.00 per share.  The warrants were converted into Class A
warrants upon the effectiveness of the Company's registration statement. The CEO
was also granted an option to purchase  200,000  shares of the Company's  Common
Stock,  which will vest 20% on each of the  following  dates:  December 1, 1997;
January  1,  1998;  January 1,  1999;  January  1,  2000;  and  January 1, 2001,
regardless  of whether the  executive  is employed on such dates by the Company.
The vested options will be immediately exercisable and will expire 10 years from
the date of the  agreement.  The exercise price of the options will be $6.00 per
share,  subject to downward  adjustments  in the  exercise  price if the Company
meets certain performance goals.

     At June 30, 1999 the  Company  and its CEO agreed to modify his  employment
agreement.  Pursuant to the  modification,  the CEO will receive 200,000 Class A
Warrants  identical to the Class A Warrants  issued to the public in May 1998 in
exchange for his waiver of base salary of $67,233 owed and accrued  through June
30, 1999 and base salary of $25,000 for the period July 1, 1999 through December
31, 1999. The  modification  agreement will require the Company to register with
the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  the resale of Mr.  Miller's  Class A
Warrants. See Note 4D for a description of the terms of the Class A Warrants.

     The Company has entered into an employment  agreement effective February 1,
1999 through  December 31, 2002 with Gary J.  Corbett  whereby Mr.  Corbett will
serve as the Company's  President at an annual base salary of $80,000 plus bonus
to be  determined  by the Board of  Directors.  He was also  granted  options to
purchase  80,000  shares of the Company's  common stock at an exercise  price of
$3.50 per share  subject to downward  adjustments  in the exercise  price if the
Company meets certain  performance  goals. The options vest 25% on March 1, 1999
and 25% on  each of the  first,  second,  and  third  anniversary  dates  of the
employment agreement.

Note 7. Public Offering

     In May 1998,  the Company  completed  an initial  public  offering in which
460,000 units were sold for  $2,760,000.  In connection  with the initial public
offering,  the Company incurred issuance costs of $842,718.  Each unit consisted
of one common  share and two Class A warrants  and sold for $6.00 per unit.  The
common stock and  warrants are  separately  transferable.  During June 1998,  an
additional  69,000 units were sold by Duncan Hill as the  over-allotment  of the
Company's  initial  public  offering.  A portion of the  proceeds  of the public
offering was used to pay off the bridge loan and increase  inventory  levels and
working capital.

Item 2.
            MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

     This discussion  should be read in conjunction  with the information in the
financial statements of the Company and notes thereto appearing elsewhere.

Overview

     The Havana  Group,  Inc. is a consumer  catalog  business  specializing  in
smoking pipes, tobaccos, cigars and related accessories. We are the manufacturer
and sole distributor of the "Magic Inch" and "Aerosphere"  smoking pipe systems,
and the sole  distributor of "Carey  Honduran"  lines of  proprietary  hand made
cigars.  Our products are offered through our Carey's Smokeshop  catalog.  Carey
Tobacco Club is also offered through the catalog,  which is a monthly program of
tobacco  shipments to Club members.  During  December  1997 we opened,  and have
since been developing, our Havana Group retail store.

     On May 14,  1998,  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  declared our
initial public offering effective,  and it was subsequently completed on May 22,
1998.  Proceeds from that offering  amounted to  $1,917,282,  net of expenses of
$842,718.

     During the six months ended June 30, 1998, catalog sales provided about 71%
of gross revenues,  Club member sales comprised another 20%, and the balance was
provided by the developing retail store.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Three  months  ended June 30, 1999  compared to the three months ended June
30, 1998.

     Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 were  $309,163,  a decline of
9.4% from the $341,382 for the same quarter last year. We  redesigned  the Carey
catalog and expanded its offerings.  The catalog  introduction was delayed until
June 28, 1999,  about a month later than planned,  which resulted in the revenue
loss.

     Cost of sales  decreased  from 63.9% of net sales in 1998 to 57.3% in 1998.
The  change  was due to a one-time  charge in 1998 to cigar  inventory.  Selling
expenses  remained  essentially  the same at 30.2% of net sales in 1999 compared
with 31.9% in 1998.  For the second  quarter  1999,  general and  administrative
expenses were $85,240,  or 27.6% of sales,  as compared to $99,561,  or 29.2% of
sales, for the same period last year.

     The operating loss for the second quarter of 1999 was $46,378,  or 15.0% of
sales, as compared to an operating loss of $85,149,  or 24.9% of sales,  for the
same quarter last year. The change was due primarily a 6.6%  improvement in cost
of sales.

     Other  income in the quarter  ended June 30, 1999 of $84,044  included  the
cancellation of a liability of $67,233  associated with the restructuring of the
employment agreement of the Company's CEO. See Financial Statement Note 6.

     During the second quarter of 1998 we incurred a one-time  non-cash interest
charge  of  $3,350,000  due  to  the  accounting  treatment  of  the  beneficial
conversion feature of a $100,000  convertible  promissory note. On May 14, 1998,
the note was converted  into 400,000  Common Stock shares and 1,400,000  Class A
warrants of the Company. See Note 4E, "Sale of Unregistered Securities",  in the
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

     As a result of the accounting for the beneficial  conversion  feature,  the
net loss for the second quarter of 1998 amounted to  $3,433,986.  Net income for
the second quarter of 1999 was $37,666.

Six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to six months ended June 30, 1998.


     Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 were $570,927,  a decrease
of 13.8% from sales of  $661,983  for the same period in 1998.  The  decrease is
attributable  to reduced  catalog  circulation  resulting from a general catalog
redesign and scheduling delays.

     Cost of sales  decreased  from 62.1% of net sales in 1998 to 58.7% in 1999.
The  change  was due to a one-time  charge in 1998 to cigar  inventory.  Selling
expenses  remained  essentially  the same at 30.7% of net sales in 1999 compared
with 32.1% in 1998.
<PAGE>
     For the six months ended June 30, 1999, general and administrative expenses
amounted to $163,973,  or 28.7% of net sales, as compared to $186,527,  or 28.2%
of net sales for the same period last year.

     The  operating  loss before other  expense for the first six months of 1999
was  $102,949,  or 18.0% of net  sales,  as  compared  to an  operating  loss of
$147,871,  or 22.3% of net sales for the same period last year. The reduction in
operating  losses as a percentage of sales was due primarily to improved cost of
sales  ratios.  Other  income in the six months  ended June 30, 1999 of $100,415
included  the  cancellation  of a  liability  of  $67,233  associated  with  the
restructuring  of the  employment  agreement of the Company's CEO. See Financial
Statement Note 6.

     As a  result  of the  accounting  for  the  beneficial  conversion  feature
previously  discussed,  the net  loss for the six  months  ended  June 30,  1998
amounted to $3,496,711,  compared with a loss of $2,534 for the six months ended
June 30, 1999.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     At June 30, 1999,  our  accumulated  deficit  increased to $4,008,794  from
$4,006,259  at December 31, 1998 because of the net loss. In addition to the net
loss of $2,524,  cash was used by  operating  activities  primarily  to increase
inventories by $175,204,  increase deferred catalog mailing expenses by $72,898,
and increase  prepaid expenses by $45,556.  Cash uses were marginally  offset by
non-cash  charges of $28,740 for  depreciation  and  amortization  as well as an
increase in accounts payable,  customer advances and other of $107,706.  A total
of $120,720 in cash was used as an  investment  in our new web site.  Cash flows
used for  financing  amounted  to  $153,020,  as we paid this amount to decrease
amounts due  affiliates  for services  under our operating  agreement  with Kids
Stuff, Inc..

     At June  30,  1998,  our  accumulated  deficit  increased  $3,496,711  from
December 31, 1997 because of the net loss. In addition to the net loss, cash was
used by  operating  activities  primarily  to  reduce  accounts  payable  and to
increase  inventories.  Cash uses were marginally  offset by non-cash charges of
$24,477  for  depreciation  and  amortization  as well as a decrease in deferred
catalog costs of $25,624. Cash was provided by financing activities primarily as
a result of our initial  public  offering  completed  May 22, 1998. In addition,
amounts due affiliates  increased $71,210  representing the net amount due under
the support services agreement with Kids Stuff.

     Currently, the Company has no credit facility. However, we have pledged our
assets as guarantee  on Kids Stuff's bank line of credit.  This is a credit line
of $800,000  with an  outstanding  balance of $762,000 at June 30, 1999. We were
relieved of this liability in July 1999 as a part of a general  restructuring of
the bank loans to Kids Stuff, Inc.

     The Company  expects to meet  current  cash  requirements  from the working
capital provided by the IPO and ongoing operations.


Forward Looking Statements and Associated Risks

     Management's  discussion and analysis  contains forward looking  statements
which  reflect  Management's  current  views and  estimates  of future  economic
circumstances,  industry conditions,  company performance and financial results.
These forward looking statements are based largely on the Company's expectations
and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond
the Company's control. Actual results could differ materially from these forward
looking  statements as a result of changes in the trends in the tobacco or cigar
retail and mail order industry,  government  regulations  imposed on the tobacco
industry,  competition,  availability and price of goods,  credit  availability,
printers'  schedules and  availability,  and other factors.  Any changes in such
assumptions or factors could produce significantly different results.
