                   KINNARD INVESTMENTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Note 1.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

              The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  of Kinnard
              Investments,   Inc.,   (the   "Company")  have  been  prepared  in
              conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  and
              should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual report for
              the year ended  December 31, 1996.  The results of operations  for
              the six months ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily  indicative
              of the  results to be  expected  for the year ended  December  31,
              1997.

              The consolidated  statement of financial  condition as of June 30,
              1997 and other financial information for the six months ended June
              30, 1997 and 1996,  are  unaudited,  but management of the Company
              believes that all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
              adjustments)  necessary  for a fair  statement  of the  results of
              operations for the periods have been included.


Note 2.       Net Capital Requirements

              Pursuant to the net capital  provision of the Securities  Exchange
              Act of  1934,  the  Company's  subsidiary,  John  G.  Kinnard  and
              Company,  Incorporated ("JGK") is required to maintain minimum net
              capital as defined  under such  provisions.  Also under this rule,
              JGK's  ratio of  aggregate  indebtedness  to net  capital  may not
              exceed  15 to 1,  and JGK may be  prohibited  from  expanding  its
              business or  declaring  cash  dividends  if its ratio of aggregate
              indebtedness to net capital is greater than 10 to 1.

              At June 30,  1997,  JGK had net  capital  of $5.7  million,  a net
              capital   requirement   of  $654,000  and  a  ratio  of  aggregate
              indebtedness to net capital of .95 to 1.


Note 3.       Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

              In May 1997, a lawsuit  seeking  class action  status was filed in
              U.S.   District   Court  in   Minnesota   alleging   that  Photran
              Corporation,  its management,  and JGK violated securities laws by
              issuing  false and  misleading  statements  related  to  financial
              results. JGK managed the initial public offering of Photran in May
              1996. JGK believes that it has substantial  defenses against these
              claims,  and intends to defend itself vigorously against them. The
              ultimate effect of this matter on the future operating results and
              financial condition of the Company is unknown at this time.

              In June 1997, a lawsuit  seeking  class action status was filed in
              U.S.  District  Court in  Minnesota  alleging  that  JGK  violated
              securities  laws  by  issuing  false  and  misleading   statements
              relating to the initial public offering of Electroscope, Inc. that
              was  managed  by  JGK  in  May  1996.  JGK  believes  that  it has
              substantial  defenses against these claims,  and intends to defend
              itself vigorously against them. The ultimate effect of this matter
              on the future  operating  results and  financial  condition of the
              Company is unknown at this time.

              JGK is a  defendant  in  various  other  actions  relating  to its
              business,  some of which involve claims for  unspecified  amounts.
              Although the  resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with
              certainty,  the  Company's  management  believes  that while their
              outcome may have a material effect on the earnings in a particular
              period, the outcome will not have a material adverse effect on the
              financial condition of the Company.

                   KINNARD INVESTMENTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



This discussion should be read in conjunction with  Management's  Discussion and
Analysis contained in the Company's Annual Report - Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1996.


Results of Operations

The lack of  inflationary  pressure  and growth in  corporate  earnings  boosted
equity stock indices during the quarter as the Dow Jones Industrial  Average and
Nasdaq Composite  increased 16.6% and 18.0 %, respectively.  The strong gains in
the indices were concentrated on large capitalization stocks, while increases in
small capitalization stocks tended to underperfrom the averages.

Net income for the quarter was $701,000,  or 11 cents per share,  on revenues of
$12.9 million.  These results compare to net income of $3.3 million, or 54 cents
per share, on revenues of $30.9 million in the same quarter a year ago. Included
in the prior year are results of  PRIMEVEST  Financial  Services,  Inc.  ("PFS")
which was sold by Kinnard in October  1996.  If the results of PFS were excluded
from the prior year,  net income for the second  quarter of 1996 would have been
$2.8 million, or 46 cents per share, on revenues of $22.3 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, net income was $385,000,  or 6 cents per
share,  on  revenues  of $24.1  million.  This  compares  to net  income of $4.6
million, or 75 cents per share, on revenues of $53.1 million in 1996.  Excluding
PFS,  prior year  revenues,  net income and  earnings  per share would have been
$36.4 million, $3.5 million and 58 cents, respectively.

Commission  income in the current period declined 18% from the second quarter of
1996  (excluding  PFS) and for the six month period declined 7%. Sales of mutual
fund  products  remained  strong  while listed and  over-the-counter  securities
declined.

Revenues from  principal  transactions  declined by 41%  (excluding  PFS) in the
current  quarter  due in part to  volatility  in the  small cap  segment  of the
market. Partially offsetting the decline in equity trading was a 62% increase in
fixed income principal transactions.  The Company had a record quarter for fixed
income originations and strong retail sales of fixed income products.  Principal
transaction  revenues for the six month period  declined by 34% (excluding  PFS)
compared to the same period last year.

Income from the change in valuation of securities held in the investment account
was $878,000 for the current quarter  compared to income of $3.2 million for the
same period last year. For the current six month period the gain was $194,000 in
1997 versus $4.0 million in 1996. The investment account has historically been a
volatile source of income.

Investment  banking revenues  declined by $2.1 million during the quarter as the
Company  completed three private  financings during the current quarter compared
to two initial public offerings and two private  financings for the same quarter
last year.  Revenues for the current six month period were $1.6 million compared
to $3.6 million for the same period last year.

Interest income  declined by $110,000 for the current  quarter  compared to last
year,  but increased by $201,000 when  excluding the effect of PFS. The increase
was due  primarily to earnings on the proceeds from the sale of PFS. For the six
month period,  interest  income  increased by $457,000  (excluding PFS) from the
prior year.

For  both  the  three  and six  month  periods  other  income  increased  by 17%
(excluding PFS) due to an increase in fee based income.

                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



Results of Operations (continued)

Employee  compensation  for the three month  period  decreased  by $4.9  million
(excluding  PFS).  This  decline in variable  compensation  was in line with the
decrease in revenues  and  profits,  while  salary  expense  increased  with the
addition of key personnel and salary increases. Compensation for the current six
month period declined by $5.7 million (excluding PFS).

Bank  commissions,  which were  related to the business of PFS, are zero for the
current  period.  Communications  expense is flat with last year (excluding PFS)
due to lower revenue levels as well as cost  reductions.  Other expenses for the
current  quarter  declined by $801,000  (excluding PFS) due to the resolution of
certain litigation matters. Correspondingly,  other expenses for the current six
month period declined by $1.2 million, excluding PFS.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating Activities

A large portion of the Company's assets are cash and assets readily  convertible
to cash. The liquid portion of the Company's  trading and investment  securities
are stated at quoted  market value and are readily  marketable.  The less liquid
portions of trading  inventory  and  investment  securities,  which totaled $1.9
million at June 30,  1997,  are stated at fair  value,  which is  determined  by
management's best estimate.

Between  December  31,  1996 and June 30,  1997,  trading  securities  decreased
$74,000 and securities  sold but not yet purchased  increased by $847,000.  Both
long and short  inventories  are generally  maintained  to  facilitate  customer
transactions rather than for market speculation.

As securities broker-dealers, JGK is required by SEC regulations to meet certain
liquidity  and  capital  standards.   It  has  been  in  compliance  with  these
regulations at all times.

Based on the Company's  current  liquidity  positions,  available bank lines and
operating plans, it is anticipated that the Company has sufficient  resources to
meet the cash requirements of its operations in the foreseeable future.

Investing Activities

The  majority  of the  Company's  investment  account  is  invested  in short to
medium-term  investment grade marketable fixed income  securities.  In addition,
the Company holds both publicly traded and privately  placed equity  securities.
Investing  activity results  primarily from the maturity and repurchase of fixed
income  securities,  while  the  volatility  in income  earned on the  portfolio
typically results from changes in valuation of the equity securities.


Financing Activities

JGK maintains a credit facility in order to meet short-term  operating needs. At
December  31, 1996 and June 30, 1997 there were no  outstanding  balances  under
this facility.

During the first six months of 1997, the Company  repurchased  133,000 shares of
its  common  stock at a total  cost of  $731,000.  The  Board of  Directors  has
authorized the  repurchase of up to 1.1 million  shares of the Company's  common
stock,  of which a total of 720,000 shares have been  repurchased as of June 30,
1997.

Cautionary Statements

The Company  wishes to caution  investors of the  following  factors which could
affect the  Company's  results of  operations  and cause such  results to differ
materially  from those  anticipated in  forward-looking  statements made in this
document  or  elsewhere  by or on  behalf  of  the  Company:  volatility  in the
securities  markets,  risks in the ownership  and  underwriting  of  securities,
consolidation in the financial services  industries,  volatility in earnings and
losses of investment securities,  competition,  government regulation,  customer
litigation and arbitration, and off-balance-sheet credit and market risks. For a
more complete  discussion of these and other factors,  see the Company's  Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.
