As of October 31, 1993, the Company has an operating loss carryforward of
approximately $55 million, of which $13 million and $42 million can be

credit carryforward of approximately $1.7 million, of which $1.3 million and
$.4 million can be carried forward to offset future regular tax liabilities
through 2003 and 2005, respectively.
(8) Earnings Per Common and Common Equivalent Share
Earnings per share for the six months ended April 30, 1994 and April 30,
1993, are based upon the weighted average number of common, non-voting
common and non-voting common equivalent shares outstanding of 9,552,000 and
8,177,000. Earnings per common, non-voting common and common equivalent

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Quarter ended April 30, 1994, compared with quarter ended April 30, 1993
INCOME
Assets under management rose 19% to $15.4 billion at April 30, 1994, from
$12.9 billion a year earlier. Sales of mutual fund shares were the primary
contributors to the increase in assets. Sales were $0.9 billion in the
second quarter ended April 30, 1994, as compared with sales of $1.1 billion
a year earlier. Redemptions were $474 million during the second quarter of
1994 and $288 million in the same quarter of 1993.
In the second quarter of 1994, total income increased 19% over that of the
second quarter of 1993. Investment management revenues rose to $41.1
million, 17% over those for the comparable quarter of 1993. The increase
was a result of the growth in assets under management. The revenue growth
included an increase in distribution income from $16.8 million to $19.4
million despite the application in July, 1993, of a new NASD rule reducing
the annual rate of the distribution plan payments received by the Company
from the Marathon Family of funds from 1.0% to 0.75% of assets managed.
Bank income increased 31% to $11.9 million from $9.0 million in the

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Most of the Company's income is received from its investment management and
banking activities. Investment management income is provided primarily by
investment adviser fees, administrative fees and distribution plan payments.
These fees are directly related to the amount of assets under management.
Those assets rose 19% to $15.4 billion on April 30, 1994 from $12.9 billion
a year earlier. Banking income is largely accounting and custody fees for
assets in trust or custody at the Company's 77.3% owned banking subsidiary,
Investors Bank & Trust Company. Assets under custody rose 38% to $65 billion
on April 30, 1994, from $47 billion a year earlier.
In connection with the sales of the Company's spread commission mutual
funds, the Company pays sales commissions at the time of sale to
broker/dealers selling the funds. At April 30, 1994, the Company's
investment in deferred sales commissions was $268 million.
Investments in investment companies are carried at the lower of cost or
market. At April 30, 1994 and October 31, 1993, the Company had gross
unrealized gains of $1,456,000 and $1,648,000, respectively. The Company,
as a non-managing partner of certain investment company partnerships, is
required to maintain a minimum investment in such partnerships. At April
30, 1994, a minimum investment of $2,814,000 was required under the terms of
the partnership agreements.
On March 18, 1994 the Company privately placed, with three insurance
companies, a $50 million 6.22% Senior Note due March, 2004. Principal
payments on the note are due in equal annual installments beginning March
18, 1998. The note may be prepaid in part or in whole on or after March 16,
1996. The proceeds were used to call the Company's outstanding $14 million
of 10% Subordinated Debentures and to reduce the borrowings under a $75
million revolving line of credit with two unaffiliated banks. Certain
covenants in the credit agreement require specific levels of cash flow and
net income and others restrict additional investment and indebtedness. On
April 30, 1994, the company had borrowings of $16.8 million under this bank
credit agreement.
