              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
                                (000's omitted)

                                 May 31, 1998
                                 ------------

1. In the opinion of management, the foregoing unaudited condensed consolidated
   financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary to
   present fairly the financial position of the Company as of May 31, 1998.

2. The results for the three month periods ended May 31, 1998 and 1997, are not
   necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year.

3. For the three months ended May 31, 1998 and 1997, basic earnings per common
   share are calculated by dividing net earnings applicable to common stock by
   the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.  Diluted
   earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net earnings applicable
   to common stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
   outstanding and common stock equivalents which consist of stock options and
   warrants and convertible preferred stock.

4. The Company utilizes an asset and liability approach in accounting for income
   taxes that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities
   for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized
   in the Company's financial statements or tax return.  In estimating future
   tax consequences, consideration is given to all expected future events other
   than enactments of changes in the tax law or rates.

   The valuation allowance of $750 at February 28, 1998, which represented 40%
   of the gross deferred tax assets on that date, was $610, or 40% on May 31,
   1998. The tax provision for the three months ended May 31, 1997 includes a
   current tax benefit of $140.

5. In April 1998, the Company advanced $102,000 to the 50% owner of the BCT
   franchise in Honolulu, Hawaii.  The Chairman of the Company is the other 50%
   owner of the franchise.  In June 1998, the Company advanced $65,000 to the
   Chairman.  Both advances are in anticipation of the resale of the Franchise
   to the manager of the Franchise.  To date, no transaction has been finalized.
   As of May 31, 1998, the advance is included in assets held for sale.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                 ---------------------------------------------

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
 
Total revenues increased $390,000 for the first quarter ended May 31, 1998, as
compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in
revenue is attributable primarily to an increase in royalties ($185,000 or 15%),
paper and printing sales ($197,000 or 6.4%) and an increase in sales of
Franchises ($35,000 or 100%) combined with a decrease in revenues from Company
Franchises of $43,000 or 7% as the prior year included the revenues of the
Boston Franchise which was sold in August 1997. Royalties and paper and printing
sales have increased as a result of increased sales by the BCT network of
franchises. Franchise sales increased due to the sale of one domestic territory
and the partial recognition of the sale of a Franchise in Buenos Aires,
Argentina.

Selling and administrative expenses represented 19% of gross revenues for the
quarters ended May 31, 1998 and 1997.  These expenses increased $68,000, but
there were no individually significant increases in the underlying expense
categories.

Expenses from Company Franchises decreased as the prior year included the
expenses of the Boston Franchise which was sold in August 1997.  The Company
Franchises yielded a loss of $78,000 for the first quarter ended May 31, 1998
versus a loss of $114,000 during the first quarter of fiscal 1998.

The Company recorded net income of $669,000 for the three months ended May 31,
1998, as compared to $392,000 for the corresponding period in fiscal 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

Cash resources decreased $147,000 during the first quarter of fiscal 1999.  The
Company utilized working capital to make debt payments totaling $24,000, and
advanced $200,000 on behalf of the Franchise network relating to a national
account, $102,000 in anticipation of the resale of a franchise and $718,000 in 
payment of accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

The Company plans to continue to improve its working capital and cash positions
during fiscal 1999 by continuing its efforts to (i) increase cash collections;
and (ii) develop new product lines while containing capital expenditures and
maintaining inventory levels.
 
The Company believes that current reserves and internally generated funds will
be sufficient to satisfy the Company's working capital and capital expenditure
requirements for the foreseeable future; however, there can be no assurance that
external financing will not be needed or that, if needed, it will be available
on commercially reasonable terms.
