Albert M. Daykin
Certified Public Accountant
Roswell, Georgia
The Board of Directors
Omega Food Services, Inc.
I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Omega Food Services,
Inc. as of December 31, 1996, and the related statements of income,
retained earnings and cash flows for the year then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on my audit.
I have conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. These standards require that I plan and perform the audit 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. I believe that my audit
provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Omega Food Services,
Inc. as of December 31, 1996, and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
On March 28, 1997, Omega Food Services, Inc. sold substantially all of
its assets and ceased operations. As of May 6, 1997, the date of this
report, the Company has repaid all of its long-term debt and
substantially all of its other creditors and is in the process of
liquidating.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996
1. GENERAL
The financial statements present the financial position and results
of operation of Omega Food Services, Inc.
The company operated twenty-three Burger King restaurants under
franchise agreements with Burger King Corporation. These franchise
agreements provide for the payment of advertising fees and royalties to
Burger King Corporation. These fees and royalties are computed at 4% and
3.5% of sales. The franchise agreements expire between 1999 and 2013.
There is no option to renew these franchises or an obligation for Burger
King Corporation to grant a renewal of these franchises.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Inventories -
Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost (FIFO) or market.
Depreciation -
For financial statement purposes, depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method and the declining balance method over the useful
life of the asset. For income tax purposes, the company is using both
the straight-line method and the modified accelerated cost recovery
method. Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 1996 is
$675,289.
Amortization -
For financial statement purposes, amortization is computed on
intangible assets using the straight-line method. Franchise costs are
amortized over 40 years or the life of the franchise. Premiums on leases
are amortized over the remaining term of the leases and the life of the
agreement. For income tax purposes, franchise costs incurred prior to
1991 are amortized over the life of the franchise or ten years, whichever
is less; and franchise costs incurred in 1991 and later years are
amortized over fifteen years. Amortization expense for the year ended
December 31, 1996 is $412,120.

the company's taxable income. $782,060 in dividends were paid to

building for the restaurant located in Travelers Rest, South Carolina
