                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994

                                  (UNAUDITED)



1.       General
         -------

     The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial statements of American
Holdings,  Inc.  (the  "Company")  as of June 30, 1995 and for the three and six
month  periods  ended June 30, 1995 and 1994  reflect all  material  adjustments
consisting  of only  normal  recurring  adjustments  which,  in the  opinion  of
management,  are  necessary for a fair  presentation  of results for the interim
periods.  Certain information and footnote  disclosures required under generally
accepted  accounting  principles have been condensed or omitted  pursuant to the
rules and  regulations of the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  although the
Company  believes  that the  disclosures  are  adequate to make the  information
presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read
in conjunction  with the year-end  consolidated  financial  statements and notes
thereto  included  in the  Company's  Annual  Report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended December 31, 1994 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     The results of  operations  for the three and six month  periods ended June
30, 1995 and 1994 are not  necessarily  indicative of the results to be expected
for the entire year or any other period.

     Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1994 consolidated financial
statements  to  conform  to  presentations  in the 1995  consolidated  financial
statements.  Such reclassifications have no effect on stockholders' equity or on
results of operations.

2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
         ------------------------------------------

         Basis of Presentation
         ---------------------

     The  consolidated  financial  statements  include the  accounts of American
Holdings,   Inc.  (the  "Company")  and  its  wholly-owned   subsidiaries  after
elimination of all material intercompany accounts and transactions.

     The results of operations of NorthCorp Realty Advisors,  Inc. ("NorthCorp")
are  included in the  Consolidated  Statements  of  Operations  as equity in the
earnings of disposed-of subsidiary through the date of disposition in 1994.

     The  acquisition  of an 80  percent  interest  in  Madis  Botanicals,  Inc.
("Madis")  occurred on January 3, 1995 and was  accounted for using the purchase
method.  The Company acquired an additional 3% interest in Madis in April, 1995.
In  accordance  with  Accounting  Principles  Board Opinion No. 16, the purchase
price will be allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities.  The Company has
preliminarily   allocated  the  purchase  price,   which  is  subject  to  final
determination after additional information is obtained.

         Cash and Cash Equivalents
         -------------------------

     Cash and cash equivalents  consist primarily of cash on hand, cash in banks
and treasury bills purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.



<PAGE>
         Marketable Securities
         ---------------------

     The Company adopted  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain  Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS 115")
as of  January  1,  1994.  SFAS  115  provides  that all  investments  are to be
classified  into three  categories:  debt  securities  that the  Company has the
positive   intent  and  ability  to  hold  to   maturity   are   classified   as
held-to-maturity  securities  and  reported at amortized  cost;  debt and equity
securities that are bought and held  principally for the purpose of selling them
in the near term are  classified  as trading  securities  and  reported  at fair
value,  with unrealized  gains and losses included in the results of operations;
and debt  and  equity  securities  not  classified  as  either  held-to-maturity
securities or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale securities
reported  at fair  value with  unrealized  gains and  losses  excluded  from the
results of  operations  and reported as a separate  component  of  stockholders'
equity.

     The Company accounts for securities transactions on a trade-date basis. For
computing  realized  gains or losses on sale of marketable  securities,  cost is
determined  on  a  first-in,  first-out  basis.  The  effect  of  all  unsettled
transactions is accrued in the consolidated financial statements.

         Inventories
         -----------

     Merchandise  inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

         Furniture and Equipment
         -----------------------

     The Company  records all furniture and equipment at cost.  Depreciation  is
computed using the straight-line and  double-declining  balance methods over the
related  estimated useful life of the asset.  Gains or losses on dispositions of
furniture and equipment are included in operating results.

         Goodwill
         --------

     Goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Madis is being amortized over 15
years using the straight-line method.


<PAGE>

3.       Proforma Consolidated Condensed Financial Information
         -----------------------------------------------------

     The proforma  consolidated  condensed  financial  information  reflects the
disposition  of NorthCorp and the  Washington,  D.C.  office of the Company (the
"Disposition") had the Disposition taken place on January 1, 1994. The financial
information  also  includes the  operations of Madis as if the  acquisition  had
taken place on the same date.

     The proforma  financial  information is not intended to reflect  results of
operations  which  would have  actually  resulted  had these  transactions  been
effected on the dates indicated.  Moreover,  this proforma financial data is not
intended to be indicative of results of operations  which may be attained in the
future.

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of
         Financial Condition and Results of Operations
         ---------------------------------------------
 
         Disposition of a Subsidiary
         ---------------------------
 
     On  September  21, 1993,  the Board of Directors of the Company  approved a
plan  to  distribute  the  common  stock  of  NorthCorp  Realty  Advisors,  Inc.
("NorthCorp"),  a real estate asset manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company,  to  all  holders  of  the  Company's  outstanding  common  stock  (the
"Distribution"). Under the plan of distribution, the Company declared a dividend
of one share of  NorthCorp  common  stock for every two shares of the  Company's
common stock outstanding on the record date of the Distribution, July 8, 1994.

     At the date of Distribution (July 11, 1994),  8,250,000 shares of NorthCorp
common  stock were  outstanding.  Approximately  4,000,000  shares,  or 48%,  of
NorthCorp's common stock were distributed to the stockholders of the Company.

     On August 4, 1994,  the Company  sold  substantially  all of its  remaining
interest  in  NorthCorp  (the  "Sale")  to Mr.  R. E.  Roark and  NorthCorp  for
approximately $1.5 million.  Mr. Roark was the sole shareholder of Crown Revenue
Services, Inc. ("Crown"), a Resolution Trust Corporation contractor.  As part of
the transaction,  Crown was reorganized as a subsidiary of NorthCorp.  NorthCorp
also  assumed  the  lease  of the  Company's  Washington  D.C.  office  and  the
employment contract of one of the Company's executive officers.

     NorthCorp's  results of operations  have been included in the  consolidated
financial  statements through the date of sale in 1994 as equity in the earnings
of disposed-of subsidiary.

         Acquisition of Madis Botanicals, Inc.
         -------------------------------------
 
     On January 3, 1995,  the  Company's  wholly-owned  subsidiary  merged  (the
"Merger") with Dr. Madis Laboratories, Inc., a New Jersey corporation located in
South Hackensack,  New Jersey. The surviving  corporation in the Merger operates
under the name of Madis Botanicals,  Inc.  ("Madis").  Madis is owned 83% by the
Company and 17% by the former  shareholders of Madis.  In addition,  the Company
issued to the former Madis shareholders options to acquire 250,000 shares of the
Company's common stock at its approximate book value of $2.10 per share.  Madis,
a manufacturer of botanical  extracts,  had sales of approximately  $6.0 million
and income  before  reorganization  items and income  taxes of  $731,000 in 1994
compared to sales of $5.2  million and income  before  reorganization  items and
income taxes of $594,000 in 1993.

<PAGE>

     The Merger was effected in connection  with a Plan of  Reorganization  (the
"Plan") filed by Madis in Chapter 11  proceedings  under the Federal  Bankruptcy
Law. Under the terms of the Merger, the Company financed the Plan which provided
for the payment to the creditors of $3.4 million,  of which  approximately  $2.3
million was advanced by the Company and approximately $900,000 was paid by Madis
from funds on hand. The balance of the  predecessor  corporation's  indebtedness
was assumed by the  surviving  corporation  and will be paid as due from working
capital or by the Company in the event of any deficiency.

     Two principal  shareholders  of Madis,  who were also  executive  officers,
received  employment  agreements under which one serves as chairman  emeritus of
the  surviving  corporation  for a period of three years at an annual  salary of
$100,000  and the other  serves as  president  for a period of four  years at an
annual salary of $150,000.  The premises  occupied by the surviving  corporation
are leased from the former  Madis  shareholders  at an annual rent of  $240,000,
net,  plus 1% of gross  revenues up to an  additional  $200,000  per annum.  The
Company believes the rental represents the fair market value.

         Proforma Consolidated Condensed Financial Information
         -----------------------------------------------------
 
     Proforma consolidated condensed financial information is included in Note 3
of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The proforma information reflects
the  disposition of NorthCorp and the Washington D.C. office of the Company (the
"Disposition")  had the Disposition  taken place on January 1, 1994. The results
of  operations  also include the  operations of Madis as if the  acquisition  of
Madis had taken place on the same date.

     The proforma  financial  information is not intended to reflect  results of
operations  which  would have  actually  resulted  had these  transactions  been
effected on the dates indicated.  Moreover,  this proforma financial data is not
intended to be indicative of results of operations  which may be attained in the
future.

         Liquidity and Capital Resources
         ------------------------------- 
     At June 30,  1995,  the  Company  had cash  and  cash  equivalents  of $8.5
million.  Cash equivalents of $8.3 million consisted of U.S. Treasury bills with
an original  maturity of less than three months and yields ranging  between 5.5%
and 5.8%. The Company also had U.S. Treasury securities of $1.9 million maturing
in August 1995 with a weighted average  yield  of 6.4%,  and trading  securities
with a current market value of approximately  $1.0 million at June 30, 1995. The
Company had net working  capital of $11.9  million and had no funded  debt.  The
management of the Company  believes that the Company's  financial  resources and
anticipated  cash flows will be sufficient  for future  operations  and possible
acquisitions of other operating businesses.


                                               

<PAGE>

     In connection with the acquisition of NorthCorp in 1992 by the Company, two
officers of NorthCorp  were paid an aggregate of $1,125,000 by NorthCorp,  which
was used to acquire an aggregate of 750,000  shares of Company  stock  ("Officer
Shares"). In addition,  the Company advanced $180,000 to each of the officers to
pay federal  income taxes  resulting  from this cash payment.  The advances bore
interest at the minimum  rate allowed  under the Internal  Revenue Code and were
secured by their shares of the Company's common stock.

     The advances  and accrued  interest  were repaid by the  officers  from the
proceeds  of a partial  sale of the Officer  Shares to the Company in  February,
1994,  in  connection  with their  resignation  as  officers  and  directors  of
NorthCorp.  The remaining shares were subsequently repurchased from the officers
in 1994.

     The Company  repurchased  266 and 21,192  shares of its common  stock at an
aggregate  purchase  price of $380 and  $30,700  during the three and six months
ended June 30, 1995,  respectively.  During the comparable  periods in 1994, the
Company  repurchased  270,000  and  1,003,508  shares  at an  aggregate  cost of
$395,000  and  $1,578,000.  Of this  amount,  $20,000  was  included in accounts
payable  at June 30,  1994.  All  shares  purchased  in 1994 and 1995  have been
returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares.

     Net cash of  approximately  $2.5 million was used in operations for the six
months ended June 30, 1995.  Net  purchases of  marketable  securities  and U.S.
Treasury  securities with  maturities  greater than three months of $1.7 million
and  decreases  in current  liabilities  of $.8 million,  principally  at Madis,
accounted for this use of cash.

     For the six months ended June 30, 1994, net cash of approximately  $1.6 was
used in operations.  The principal reason for this use of cash was net purchases
of marketable  securities and U.S. Treasury  securities with maturities  greater
than three months of $1.4 million.

         Results of Operations
         ---------------------
 
     The  Company's  operations  resulted in net income of $88,000,  or $.01 per
share,  for the three  months  ended June 30,  1995,  compared  to a net loss of
$14,000 for the  comparable  period in 1994.  For the six months  ended June 30,
1995,  net income was  $158,000,  or $.02 per share,  compared  to net income of
$6,000 for the comparable period in the prior year. The consolidated  results of
operations in 1994 include the equity in earnings of NorthCorp.


<PAGE>



     Madis  had sales of $1.7  million  and $3.3  million  for the three and six
months  ended June 30,  1995,  respectively,  compared to $1.4  million and $3.1
million for the same  periods in 1994.  For the three and six months  ended June
30, 1995, the cost of goods sold was $.9 million and $2.0 million, respectively,
and remained consistent with 1994 levels.  Gross margin was $.8 million and $1.3
million  for the three and six  months  ended  June 30,  1995,  compared  to $.5
million  and  $1.1  million  for the  respective  periods  in  1994.  Since  the
acquisition of Madis was accounted for as a purchase,  the results of operations
of Madis have been  included  in the  consolidated  financial  statements  since
January 3, 1995, the date of  acquisition.  Financial  information of Madis from
1994 has been included for comparison purposes only.

     For the three and six months ended June 30, 1995, the Company  recorded net
gains on marketable securities of $136,000 and $142,000, respectively,  compared
to $38,000  and $55,000 for the same  periods in 1994.  Net gains on  marketable
securities  for the  six-month  periods  in 1995  and  1994,  respectively,  are
composed of  realized  gains of $58,000  and  $33,000  and  unrealized  gains of
$84,000 and $22,000. The increase in net gains on marketable  securities was due
to the changes in portfolio composition and general market conditions.  A charge
to stockholders' equity of $742,000 was recorded in 1994 to reflect the decrease
in market  value of  securities  available-for-sale.  The  unrealized  losses on
securities  held-for-sale  decreased by $234,000 in the first six months of 1995
($115,000  in the quarter  ended June 30,  1995) to  $508,000 at June 30,  1995,
reflecting an increase in the market value of these securities.  This net charge
related primarily to the Company's  investment in a real estate investment trust
("REIT").  The  Company  had  undertaken  two  proxy  contests  to  protect  its
investment in the REIT.

     Interest, dividend and other income was $211,000 and $416,000 for the three
and six months  ended June 30,  1995,  respectively,  compared to  $199,000  and
$376,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994.  Interest  income was
$333,000  during the  six-month  period in 1995, an increase of $71,000 from the
$262,000  recorded in the  comparable  period of 1994.  This increase was due to
higher  average  interest  rates  on the  Company's  cash  equivalents  and U.S.
Treasury  securities and interest on notes receivable from affiliates.  Dividend
income for the six-month  period was $77,000 in 1995 compared to $2,000 in 1994.
The increase in  dividends  was due to a change in  portfolio  composition.  All
other income  decreased  from  $112,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1994 to
$6,000 in 1995. In 1994 all other income was primarily comprised of revenue from
the  Washington  D.C.  office of the Company  which was disposed of on August 4,
1994.

     Personnel  expenses  were $.4 million and $.8 million  during the three and
six months  ended June 30,  1995  compared to $.2 million and $.3 million in the
comparable  periods in 1994. This increase was predominantly due to the acquisi-
tion of Madis.  Professional  fees were $.2 million  and $.3 million  during the
three and six month periods in 1995,  compared to $.1 million and $.3 million in
the three and six month  periods  in 1994.  The  professional  fees in 1995 were
incurred primarily in the operations of Madis. Professional fees incurred in the
1994 periods were due to a proxy contest in connection  with the Company's  REIT
investment and the distribution of NorthCorp common stock to the stockholders of
the Company.  Other expenses  increased in the quarter and six months ended June
30, 1995  compared to the 1994 periods due  principally  to the  acquisition  of
Madis.  Other expenses  include  the  amortization of goodwill of  approximately
$41,000 and $80,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1995.
