                     CIRO INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS:

         On November 12,  1997,  Mid-Way  Medical and  Diagnostic  Center,  Inc.
         ("Mid-Way Medical") a Florida  corporation,  changed its domicile state
         to  Nevada  and  changed  is  name to Ciro  International,  Inc.  ("the
         Company").  On December 2, 1997, Mid-Way Acquisition Corp. ("Mid-Way"),
         a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid-Way Medical, merged with Ciro Jewelry,
         Inc.

         At the closing,  Jewelry's sole shareholder was issued 2,500,000 shares
         of the Company's  stock in exchange for all the  outstanding  shares of
         the subsidiary.  As a result of the merger all the assets,  liabilities
         and the business of the subsidiary  became the assets,  liabilities and
         business of Mid-Way. At the same time, the former majority  shareholder
         of Mid-Way  Medical  canceled and/or sold a vast majority of his shares
         in the  Company.  After the merger  Mid-Way  changed  it's name to Ciro
         Jewelry,  Inc. This transaction is considered to be a  recapitalization
         with Ciro Jewelry as the  accounting  acquirer  and has been  reflected
         using reverse acquisition accounting.

         Ciro Jewelry Inc.  (subsidiary) owns a trademark for the "Ciro" jewelry
         name in the  following  countries:  Bolivia,  Chile,  Hungary,  Israel,
         Japan, Macao, Mexico,  Monaco,  Panama,  Philippines,  Portugal,  South
         Korea, Russia and the United States. The Company licenses its trademark
         and receives royalties from the licensees.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY:

         The accompanying  consolidated  financial statements have been prepared
         on a going concern basis which  contemplates  the realization of assets
         and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.  For
         the year  ended  December  31,  1999,  the  Company  incurred a loss of
         $265,732, which increased the accumulated deficit to $842,842. The loss
         for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000 increased this deficit to
         $859,560.  In  addition  the  Company  has  lost  its  main  source  of
         royalties. It is the Company's intention to seek a replacement licensee
         for its main source of royalty  income,  however to date, a replacement
         has not been found.

         The current operating expenses of the Company are minimal. The majority
         of the 1999 loss was a result of amortization  and the subsequent write
         off  of a  trademark  as  well  as  bad  debt  expenses.  The  majority
         shareholder  has indicated his willingness to provide the funds for all
         operating expenses at least through September 30, 2001, which primarily
         consist of  professional  fees  associated  with SEC  filings and other
         nominal  costs.  The  shareholder  has indicated  this  willingness  to
         provide the necessary  working capital until sufficient  royalty income
         is generated from its trademark or other  financing is obtained to make
         the Company self sufficient.

         In view of these  matters,  realization of the assets of the Company is
         dependent  upon the Company's  ability to generate  royalty income from
         its trademark, and the success of its future operations.  The financial
         statements do not include  adjustments  relating to the  recoverability
         and  classification  of recorded  asset amounts and  classification  of
         liabilities  that might be  necessary  should the  Company be unable to
         continue in existence. The Company will attempt to market the trademark
         to other sources,  although  management  cannot provide  assurance that
         they will be successful in doing so.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL  CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Ciro International,  Inc. ("Company") exists primarily as a holding company. The
Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Ciro Jewelry, Inc. ("Ciro Jewelry") generates
income as a result of the licensing of the CIRO name in connection with the sale
of fashion  (costume)  Jewelry.  Ciro Jewelry  currently  has 3 licensees in the
United States,  Korea,  Mexico,  and Russia who operate  approximately 5 fashion
jewelry stores using the CIRO name. The Company is seeking additional licensees.
The Company does not  manufacture or distribute the products sold under the CIRO
name,  nor does it  secure  the  source of  availability  of  materials  used to
manufacture Ciro products.  These responsibilities are left up to the individual
licensees.

Results of Operations

The Company had royalty revenues for the quarter and nine months ended September
30, 2000 of $360 and $5,482,  representing  a 100%  increase  and a 89% decrease
from  royalty  revenues  of $0 and  $50,849  for the same  periods of 1999.  The
decrease  in royalty  income was  caused by the fact that the  Company  lost its
primary licensee. The Company is currently attempting to market its trademark to
other sources,  although  management  cannot provide assurance that they will be
successful in doing this.

Selling,  general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $2,564 for the third
quarter of 2000 compared to $7,061 for the third  quarter of 1999.  SG&A for the
first nine  months of 2000 was  $30,213  compared  to $68,349 for the first nine
months of 1999. The differences are caused by bad debt expense and  amortization
expenses for trademarks which were written off at December 31, 1999. The Company
had no amortization  expense for the quarter and nine months ended September 30,
2000 and  amortization  expense of $6,210 and  $18,629  for the same  periods of
1999.  The Company had no bad debt expense for the quarter and nine months ended
September  30, 2000 and bad debt  expense of $0 and $33,490 for the same periods
of 1999.

The Company had net losses of $2,504 and $16,718 for the third quarter and first
nine  months of 2000 down 63% and 7% from  losses of $6,691 and  $17,880 for the
same periods of 1999. The ongoing  losses are caused  primarily by the fact that
the Company lost its primary licensee.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had a working  capital  deficiency  at September 30, 2000 of $15,088
compared to working  capital of $1,630 as of December 31, 1999.  The  difference
was caused by accrued expenses  incurred as of September 30, 2000 for accounting
and printing fees.  The majority  shareholder  has indicated his  willingness to
provide the funds for all  expenses  not  covered by cash flow at least  through
September  30,  2001.  The  Company is  actively  attempting  to add  additional
licensees in an attempt to generate  sufficient cash flow as to not have to rely
on working capital loans from the majority shareholder.
