PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION





Item 1. - Financial Statements

The consolidated Financial Statements included herewith 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 the Consolidated 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.

In the opinion of the Company's Management, the Financial Statements for three
months and nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 reflect all
adjustments for normal recurring accruals which are necessary to present a fair
statement of the results for the period then ended.  It is suggested that these
Financial Statements be read in conjunction with the audited, consolidated
Financial Statements and notes thereto submitted in the Company's Form 10-K
filing for the year ended December 31, 1994.

The results for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, are not necessarily
indicative of the results of the entire year of 1995.

On April 17, 1995, the Company reported a 10% Stock Dividend payable to
shareholders of record as of May 1, 1995.  311,977 additional shares of Common
Stock were issued on May 17, 1995.  The weighted average number of shares
outstanding on the Consolidated Statements of Income only, have been adjusted
to reflect the May 17, 1995 Stock Dividend.

         and Consolidated Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On September 30, 1995, the Company's Financial condition reflects a working
capital of $1,722,452, tangible net worth of $3,391,178 and stockholders'
equity of $8,054,844.  This compares to a working capital of $1,428,869,
tangible net worth of $2,968,572, and stockholders' equity of $6,398,288 at
September 30, 1994.  The improvement in working capital and tangible net worth
reflects the continued profitability of the Company over last year and the
$1,151,369 addition to Deferred Revenue during the 1st Quarter of 1995.

Financial highlights from the September 30, 1995 and 1994 financials are
presented below:

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
         and Consolidated Results of Operations (continued)

Results of Operations


The entitlement "Commission and Fees" on the Consolidated Statements of Income
consist of three components, (1) commissions, (2) fees and (3) profit-sharing
commissions and volume bonuses.

"Commissions" are amounts earned by the Company and are equal to a percentage
ranging from approximately 15% to 22% of the premiums invoiced under insurance
coverage placed by the Company.  Commissions are paid by the insurance carriers
that have placed insurance coverages through the Company.  Commissions are
somewhat lower when the Company is acting as an insurance broker as compared to
when the Company is acting as an insurance agent under a general agency
agreement with an insurance carrier.  Insurance carriers can and do
unilaterally modify commission rates from time to time.

"Fees" are amounts received by the Company for services rendered to the
referring insurance agents, and include inspection fees, policy-writing fees
and underwriting fees.  The types of fees that may be charged by the Company
are determined by state regulations and, therefore, vary by state.

"Profit-sharing commissions and volume bonuses" are paid by several insurance
carriers, but principally by one carrier, for whom the Company acts as a
general agent.  Profit-sharing commissions are based upon a ratio of the amount
of premiums invoiced by the Company for insurance coverages placed with the
applicable insurance carrier and the loss-experience of such insurance carriers
under such coverages during the computation period.  Because the volume of
business placed with a carrier and loss-ratios vary from year to year, and
because insurance carriers can and do unilaterally modify profit-sharing
commissions to satisfy their own objectives, the amount of profit sharing
commissions may vary dramatically from period to period. Volume bonuses are
additional commissions paid by several carriers for increased sales. The
recognition of the profit-sharing commissions and volume bonuses adds no
additional costs to the Company's operations as all costs attributable to their
generation have already been recorded when the policies are placed with the
carrier.  Accordingly, profit-sharing commissions and volume bonuses tend to
impact heavily on gross profit.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
         and Consolidated Results of Operations (continued)


Commissions and fees are recognized as revenue when the Company invoices the
independent insurance agent for the insurance coverage placed for his client.
Generally, the Company invoices the insurance agent only after a particular
insurance coverage is "bound" (accepted by the insurance carrier and by the
agent's client).  Commissions and fees are recognized when invoiced and are not
recognized incrementally over the period of the underlying insurance policy.
In other words, on a 12-month policy, the Company will recognize commissions
and fees at the time the policy is invoiced, rather than recognizing 1/12 of
the commission in each month that the policy is in force.

Profit-sharing commissions are recorded when received from insurance carriers.
Some of the carriers may subsequently adjust the profit-sharing commissions
based on actual policy experience. Adjustments resulting in underpayments are
recorded as accounts receivable in the financial statements, while overpayments
are reflected as deferred revenue and are applied to future profit-sharing
commissions based on the Company's agreement with individual carriers.

"Cost of commissions and fees" consists, almost entirely, of the portion of
gross commissions and fees that is paid by the Company as commissions to the
referring independent insurance agents for doing business through the Company.

"Divisional operating expense" consists of direct costs and expenses of
operating the branch offices including salaries of branch office managers and
employees, rent, utilities, telephone, employee benefits, payroll taxes, other
expenses and costs incurred directly by or for the benefit of branch offices.

"General and administrative expenses" consist of salaries of executives and
central administrative officers and employees, payroll taxes for such
employees, central computer expenses, general insurance costs, legal and
accounting and other general and administrative expenses and costs deemed
attributable by management to the operations of the Company as a whole.

"Other income (expenses) - net" consists principally of gains (or losses) from
investments by the Company in various securities, dividends on such securities
and interest earned by the Company on various short-term investments.

                   PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)

                 NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND 1994

Commission and fee income increased $4,917,125 or 12.52% to $44,181,777 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 from $39,264,652 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1994.  The increase reflects increased sales over last year at
existing offices and the additional sales of the Illinois R. B. Jones/Burns &
Wilcox office and the Gerry McLaughlin Agency which were acquired March 31,
1995 and February 15, 1995 respectively.

Profit sharing commissions in the nine months ended September 30, 1995 were
$1,899,127 and accounted for approximately 4.3% of commission and fee revenue
as compared to $1,710,876 or 4.4% of commissions and fees for the comparable
period in 1994.

Gross profit increased $2,749,685 or 12.3% to $25,111,087 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995 as compared to $22,361,402 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1994.  Gross profit as a percentage of commission and fee income
decreased to 56.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to
57.0% for the comparable period in 1994, due primarily to increased commissions
to agents.

Total operating expenses, including both divisional and general and
administrative expenses, were $22,735,564 for the nine months ended September
30, 1995 compared to $20,298,915 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994.
The aggregate dollar amount of total operating expenses increased due to higher
insurance, payroll, and rent expense resulting from recent acquisitions and
expansion of existing offices.  Total operating expenses as a percentage of
commission and fee income decreased to 51.5% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 from 51.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 1994.
Amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $833,927
compared to $877,300 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994.

Other income was $606,163 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 as
compared to $374,508 in the comparable period in fiscal 1994.  The increase was
due to additional amounts invested and higher interest rates.

The Company's provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September

                   PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)

                THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND 1994 
Commission and fee income increased $1,915,066 or 14.12% to $15,476,498 for the
three months ended September 30, 1995 compared to $13,561,432 for the three
months ended September 30, 1994.  The increase in commission and fee income is
attributable to expanded sales of existing offices and the additional sales of
the Illinois R. B. Jones/Burns & Wilcox office and the Gerry McLaughlin Agency
which were acquired March 31, 1995 and February 15, 1995 respectively.

Profit sharing commissions in the three months ended September 30, 1995 were
$1,117,497 and accounted for 7.2% of commission and fee income compared to
$910,459 or 6.7% of commission and fee income for the three months ended
September 30, 1994.  Profit sharing commissions in the third quarter of fiscal
1995 and 1994 respectively, included the recognition of $1,115,132 and $898,813
of deferred revenue.

Gross profit increased to $9,085,506 for the three months ended September 30,
1995 from $7,916,267 for the three months ended September 30, 1994.  Gross
profit as a percentage of commission and fee income, was 58.7% in the three
months ended September 30, 1995 compared to 58.4% for the three months ended
September 30, 1994 due primarily to the effect of higher profit sharing
commissions in the 3rd Quarter of 1995.

Total operating expenses, including both divisional and general and
administrative expenses, were $7,675,857 for the three months ended September
30, 1995 compared to $6,752,496 for the comparable period last year.  Total
operating expenses as a percentage of commission and fee income decreased to
49.6% for the three months ended September 30, 1995 from 49.8% for the three
months ended September 30, 1994.  The aggregate dollar amount of total
operating expenses increased due to higher insurance, payroll and rent expense.
Amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 1995 was $288,370
versus $259,937 for the comparable period last year.

Other income increased $55,164 to $211,228 for the three months ended September
30, 1995 compared to $156,064 for the comparable period last year.  The
increase was due to higher interest and dividend income.

The Company's provision for income taxes for the three months ended September
30, 1995 increased to $617,000 as compared to $488,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1994.  The increase is due primarily to increased
profitability in the third quarter of fiscal 1995 compared to the comparable
period in fiscal 1994.

As a result of the forgoing factors, net income of $1,003,877 was recorded for
the three months ended September 30, 1995 compared to $831,835 in the
comparable period in fiscal 1994.

                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

         On June 16, 1995, a lawsuit was commenced in the Circuit Court for the
         County of Oakland, Michigan, Case No. 95-499008-CZ, relating to the
         proposed merger and naming as defendants the Company, each of its
         Directors and AJK and Acquisition.  The plaintiff is Richard N. Frank,
         and he purports to represent a class which includes shareholders of the
         Company other than the defendants. The complaint sets forth general
         allegations that, among others, the Directors breached their fiduciary
         duties to the shareholders by "grossly" undervaluing the Company and
         its shares, by failing to obtain a fair price and that Herbert W.
         Kaufman and Alan J. Kaufman agreed to set a low per share buy-out price
         and that each defendant aided and abetted the other in such attempt. 
         The principal relief sought is a declaration as a class action and
         recovery of damages in an unspecified amount against all defendants,
         including attorney fees and all costs.  The Company does not anticipate
         that this lawsuit will affect the consummation of the Merger and filed
         its answer to the lawsuit on July 7, 1995 denying the plaintiff's
         allegations.  On November 8, 1995, pursuant to the Company's motion to
         dismiss the case, based upon the alleged prematurity of the plaintiff's
         filing before the merger has even occurred, the Circuit Court dismissed
         the plaintiff's action without prejudice to refile should the merger be
         consummated.  The Company intends to contest it vigorously should it be
         refiled.

         No information called for by this item is applicable for the
         period covered by this report.

Item 3.  Defaults Upon Senior Securities

         As previously announced, the Company entered into a merger
         agreement with AJK Acquisition Company, a corporation formed
         by Alan J. Kaufman, the son of Herbert W. Kaufman, which, if
         successful, will result in each outstanding share being exchanged for
         cash in the amount of $8.20.  The board of directors agreed to the 
         merger, subject to the shareholders' meeting expected to occur within
         the next several months.

            No exhibits are being filed with this Form 10-Q.

        (b) Reports on Form 8-K

        Two reports on Form 8-K were filed since April 1, 1995.  The

        execution of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of May 26, 1995
        among the Company, AJK Enterprises Inc. and AJK Acquisition Company. 
        Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of the Company's Common
        Stock will be converted into the right to receive $8.20 should the
        merger be successful.

        On July 3, 1995 the Company filed an additional Form 8-K under
        Item 5 to disclose the lawsuit referred to above in Part II, Item 1.
