                         HENG FAI CHINA INDUSTRIES, INC.
            NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
                             (United States Dollars)


1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

                  In June 1994, Heng Fai China  Industries,  Inc., then known as
         Alpine  International  Corporation  ("Alpine")  entered into a business
         combination  with Vancouver Hong Kong  Properties  Limited  ("Vancouver
         Hong Kong"),  which owns and operates a residential  rental property in
         North Vancouver, British Columbia. The business combination resulted in
         the shareholders of Vancouver Hong Kong being issued  10,357,700 shares
         of common  stock (the  "Common  Stock")  and  10,357,700  common  stock
         purchase warrants (the "Warrants") of Alpine. As a part of the business
         combination,  a  company  related  to  Vancouver  Hong  Kong  agreed to
         subscribe  for 1,500,000  shares of Common Stock and  1,500,000  common
         stock  purchase  warrants for an aggregate of US$120,000  in cash.  The
         foregoing  share  numbers  are  before  the  effects  of the  Company's
         subsequent  one-for-four  reverse stock split and a one-for-ten reverse
         stock split.  The business  combination  was accounted for as a reverse
         acquisition  whereby the purchase  method of  accounting  was used with
         Vancouver Hong Kong being the accounting parent.  Accordingly,  results
         of operations for periods prior to the reverse acquisition are those of
         Vancouver  Hong  Kong,  and the  results  of  Alpine's  operations  are
         included only from the date of such reverse acquisition.  Subsequent to
         the  business  combination,  the name of the legal  parent  Alpine  was
         changed to Heng Fai China Industries Inc. (the "Company").

                  The condensed  consolidated  financial  statements include the
         accounts  of  the  Company  and  its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries.   The
         condensed  consolidated  financial statements included herein have been
         prepared  by the  Company,  without  audit,  pursuant  to the rules and
         regulations  of  the  Securities  and  Exchange   Commission.   Certain
         information  and footnote  disclosures  normally  included in financial
         statements  prepared in accordance with generally  accepted  accounting
         principles  have been  condensed or omitted  pursuant to such rules and
         regulations,  although the Company  believes that the  disclosures  are
         adequate  to  make  the  information  presented  not  misleading.   The
         condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  and the  notes  thereto
         should  be  read  in  conjunction  with  the   consolidated   financial
         statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
         year ended December 31, 1995.

                  In  the  opinion  of  the  management  of  the  Company,   the
         accompanying  condensed  consolidated  financial statements contain all
         necessary  adjustments  to present fairly the financial  position,  the
         results of  operations  and cash flows for the  periods  reported.  All
         adjustments are a normal recurring nature.

                  The results of operations for the three months periods are not
         necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

2.       CONTINUING OPERATIONS

                  These consolidated  financial statements have been prepared on
         the going concern  basis of  accounting  which assumes the Company will
         realize its assets and discharge its  liabilities  in the normal course
         of  business.  The Company is  currently  operating at a loss and has a
         deficiency  in net  tangible  assets.  Should the  Company be unable to
         continue  as a going  concern it may be  required to realize its assets
         and settle its liabilities at amounts substantially  different from the
         current carrying values.

                  The  Company's  ability  to  continue  as a going  concern  is
         dependent on continued financial support from its principal shareholder

3.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

                  The accompanying  consolidated  financial statements have been
         prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
         the United States. The following sets forth the significant  accounting
         principles  utilized in the preparation of the  consolidated  financial
         statements:

                  Use of estimates - The preparation of financial  statements in
         conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  requires
         management to make estimates and  assumptions  that affect the reported
         amounts of assets and  liabilities,  and the  disclosures of contingent
         assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the
         reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting  period.
         Actual results could differ from these estimates.

                  The Company holds  certain  investments  in marketable  equity
         securities,  which are  carried at fair  value.  Future  changes in the
         market value of these securities could materially  affect the Company's
         financial position.

                  Principles  of  consolidation  -  The  consolidated  financial
         statements include the accounts of Heng Fai China Industries,  Inc. and
         all significant subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions
         and balances have been eliminated.

                  Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents  include
         cash on hand and short-term bank deposits.

                  Inventories  - Inventories  relating to the  Company's  cement
         operations are stated at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in,
         first-out  method) or market.  Cost  includes  material and  conversion
         cost.

3.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

                  Trading-securities - Equity securities  purchased  principally
         for the  purpose of resale in the near term are  classified  as trading
         securities and are measured at fair value,  with  unrealized  gains and
         losses included in earnings. Fair values are determined based on quoted
         prices.

                  Investment   securities  -  The  Company  has  classified  the
         marketable   equity   securities   it  holds   as   available-for-sale.
         Accordingly, pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.
         115 the securities are measured at fair value,  with  unrealized  gains
         and losses,  net of applicable taxes,  reported as a separate component
         of equity.

                  Depreciation   and  amortization  of  building  and  leasehold
         improvements - Building and leasehold improvements are recorded at cost
         and deprecation is provided as follows:

                    Building                5% declining balance

                    Leasehold               improvements amortized over the term
                                            of the lease  which  expires May 31,
                                            2032 using the straight line method

                  Foreign  currency   translation  -  Financial   statements  of
         international  subsidiaries  are translated into U.S. dollars using the
         exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and
         a  weighted  average  exchange  rate for each  period for  revenue  and
         expenses.   Where  the  local  currency  is  the  functional  currency,
         translation  adjustments  are  recorded  as  a  separate  component  of
         shareholders' equity. Where the U.S. dollar is the functional currency,
         the financial  statements of international  subsidiaries are translated
         at historical rates and translation adjustments are recorded in income.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

Introduction

         The Company was originally incorporated in 1958 and until June 1994 had
been engaged in business other than those it presently  operates,  or, since its
Alpine  1992  emergence  from  reorganization  under  Chapter  11  of  the  U.S.
Bankruptcy code, had been inactive.

         Vancouver  Hong Kong owns and operates an  apartment  building in North
Vancouver,  British Columbia,  and until June 1995 the Company's operations were
comprised of that single segment. In January 1995, the Company acquired from Fai
Chan (an  officer,  director  and  principal  stockholder  of the  Company)  the
ownership  of 100% of the  common  stock of Heng Fai China  and Asia  Industries
Limited ("Asia") and Asia's wholly-owned subsidiaries, Heng Fai China Industries
Limited ("China") and Heng Fai Light Products Limited ("Light").  Light, through
its subsidiary Cangzhou Min You Cement Company Limited ("Min You"), obtained the
right to  acquire  the use,  for a period of five  years  commencing  January 1,
11995, of a production line at Min You in the PRC. Min You was entitled to lease
the production line for five years by expending Renmibi ("RMB"), the currency of
the PRC,  RMB1.2  million on the  expansion  and  modernization  of Min You. The
option was  exercised  and the  required  RMB1.2  million was expended in fiscal
1995,  and  beginning in June 1995 the  Company's  operations  included a second
business segment, the production and sale of cement.


Results of Operations -   Period Ended March 31, 1996 as Compared to the Period 
                          Ended March 31, 1995

         The Company  generates  revenue  through  the leasing of the  apartment
building in North  Vancouver,  Canada and the sale of cement  products.  For the
three month's period ended March 31, 1996, approximately 50.23% of the Company's
total  revenue was  derived  from the leasing of the  apartment  building  while
48.94% was contributed by the sale of cement products.

         Revenues  for the period ended March 31, 1996  increased to  US$171,954
from  US$86,163 for the period ended March 31, 1995,  principally  the result of
the revenues  derived from the Company's  cement  operation  which  commenced in
June, 1995.

         There  were  no  significant  changes  in  the  revenues  and  expenses
attributable  to the operation of Vancouver  Hong Kong's real estate between the
first quarter of fiscal 1996 and fiscal 1995.

         The  Company's  net  loss  for the  period  ended  March  31,  1996 was
$894,024,  a change  of  US$888,648  compared  to net loss of  US$5,376  for the
corresponding  period in 1995.  The increases in the net loss was due to (i) the
operating  loss for the  cement  segment;  and  (ii)  higher  general  corporate
expenses, the consulting expenses in particular.

         For  the  period  ended  March  31,  1996,  the  modernization  of  the
production line of the cement operation was not yet completed,  henceforth,  the
production  line operated at less then full  capacity.  As a result,  the cement
sales and gross  margin were lower than the levels  management  believes  can be

                                       11
<PAGE>

achieved  under normal  operating  conditions.  Management  believes  that under
normal operating conditions,  the cement sales and gross profit margin should be
sufficient to recover its other operating costs.

         General  corporate  expenses  increased to US$1,065,978  for the period
ended March 31, 1996 from US$71,539 for the corresponding  period in 1995 as the
result of  consulting  fees of  US$845,041  and an increase of US$83,702 for the
production  of cement.  The  consulting  fees relate to an agreement the Company
entered into June 1995 for investor  relations and financial  advisory  services
(see Note 5 of the Notes to the Condensed  Consolidated  Financial  Statements).
Legal and  professional  fees  increased for the period ended March 31, 1996 for
the expenses related to the Company's corporate exercises.

         As at March 31, 1996,  the Company held shares of common stock of three
companies  traded on the Stock  Exchange of Hong Kong  Limited.  As of March 31,
1996,  the quoted  market price of the shares are, in the  aggregate,  US$24,855
more than their initial  costs.  The  securities are classified as available for
sale and,  accordingly,  the increase in their  market  value has been  credited
directly to stockholders' equity as a separate component thereof.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The  Company  did  not  generate  net  profits  from  operations  on an
accounting basis for the three months period ended March 31, 1996.

         Operating  cashflows  for the three months  period ended March 31, 1996
were a negative US$57,541.  The Company met its working capital  requirements by
(i)  utilizing  cash on hand at the end of the period  ended  March 31,  1996 of
US$36,954,  and (ii) proceeds of  US$378,608  obtained from the margin and other
short-term borrowings.

         As  discussed  in Note 2 of the  Notes  to the  Condensed  Consolidated
Financial  Statements,  the Company's  operating losses and net asset deficiency
raise substantial doubts concerning the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern.  However, the Company's principal shareholder has agreed to continue to
provide the Company with necessary financial support.

         A significant portion of the Company's current operations are conducted
in the PRC and its  expenses  are paid and  revenues  received in RMB.  Prior to
1994, the foreign currency exchange system in the PRC functioned as a two-tiered
system with different  effective exchange rates for the purchase or sale of RMB.
Reforms  enacted  in 1994  have had the  effect  of  essentially  replacing  the
two-tiered  system with a single  exchange  system  which  functions on exchange
rates  for the RMB  against  the Hong  Kong  Dollar,  and  against  other  major
currencies,  set by the  People's  Bank of  China  on the  basis  of  inter-bank
exchange rates.

         Additionally,  prior to 1994,  there was significant  volatility in the
exchange  rate  between  the RMB and the Hong Kong  Dollar.  The  exchange  rate
between the RMB and the Hong Kong Dollar has been relatively  stable since 1994,
and the PRC government has stated its intentions to intervene,  when  necessary,
to maintain such stability. However, there can be no assurance that such support
will in fact occur,  or that the exchange  rate will not  fluctuate  and cause a
loss in the value of the RMB.
