NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary (consisting of
only normal recurring accruals) have been made to the unaudited financial
statements to present fairly the financial position as of September 30,
1995 and the results of the Company's operations for the three months and
nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 and cash flows for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994.
The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended
September 30, 1995 and 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for the full year.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its majority owned subsidiaries.
All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated
in consolidation.
Earnings Per Share -
The computation of earnings per share in the accompanying statements
is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each
period.
Lines of Business -
The Company is engaged in the title insurance agency business and in
the ownership and rental of properties.
GNI, Inc. owns approximately 80% of the Company's issued and
outstanding common stock.
The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 115 (SFAS No. 115) effective January 1, 1994. The
Company has classified its investments, both current and noncurrent, in
debt and equity securities as Available-For-Sale, in accordance with the
various classifications of securities contained in SFAS No. 115.
In accordance with SFAS No. 115, the Company's portfolios, current and
noncurrent, of Available-For-Sale investments are carried at fair value in
the Company's balance sheet at September 30, 1995. The net unrealized
holding gains at September 30, 1995, net of the estimated income tax
effects and minority interests in the unrealized holding gains, is
reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity at September 30,
1995.
During 1994, the Company recovered $1,060,000 in full settlement of an
obligation owed to the Company which had been reserved in a previous year
as uncollectible.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF THE INCOME STATEMENT
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
A summary of the period to period changes in items included in the
statements of income is shown below.
COMPARISON OF
THREE MONTHS NINE MONTHS
ENDED ENDED
September 30, September 30,
1995 AND 1994 1995 AND 1994
INCREASES (DECREASES)
Operating
Revenues $ (505,488) (39.7%) $(1,411,031) (40.1%)
Operating
Expenses 15,973 3.3% (84,097) (6.1%)
Net Income (328,642) (67.1%) (748,866) (59.5%)
Net income decreased $748,866 (59.5%) in the first nine months of 1995
as compared with the first nine months of 1994 due primarily to the recovery
in 1994 of $1,060,000 of an obligation which was owed to the Company and
which had been reserved in a previous year as uncollectible. Revenues
decreased $1,411,031 (40.1%) in the first nine months of 1995 as compared
with the first nine months of 1994 partially as a result of the 1994 recovery
referred to above and partially due to a decrease, $367,645 (25.0%), in title
insurance and related revenues. The decrease in title insurance and related
revenues was due primarily to a decrease in the real estate economies within
which the Company operates.
Operating expenses decreased $84,097 (6.1%) in the first nine months
of 1995 as compared with the first nine months of 1994 due primarily to a
decrease in expenses associated with the Company's title insurance operations.
The provision for income taxes decreased $520,000 (65.0%) in the first
nine months of 1995 as compared with the first nine months of 1994 due to a
decrease in pre-tax income.
