The Registrant's income during the fiscal year ended May 31, 1997 will be

improved revenues. A reasonable estimate of results for fiscal year 1997 is
revenues of approximately $100 million. No reasonable estimate of net income is
available at the present time because of delays in obtaining complete financial
information from certain subsidiaries.
