NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(unaudited)
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation:
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principals and the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), and should be read in conjunction
with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the
Company's latest annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-KSB. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of financial position and the
results of operations for the interim periods preseted have been reflected
herein. The results of operation are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which
would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited
financial statements for the year ended March 31, 1997, as reported in the
Form 10-KSB have been omitted.
Nature of Business and Organization
Mountain States Resources Corporation (MSRC), (the "Company") was organized
under the laws of the State of Utah on April 15, 1969. On June 23, 1997
MSRC entered into a reverse merger agreement and plan of reorganization
with the shareholders of Micro-Media Solutions, Inc. (MSI) in which MSRC
acquired 100% of the common stock of MSI. As part of the reorganization,
MSRC plans to change its name to Micro-Media Solutions, Inc. (MSI). The
transaction was accounted for as a purchase.
MSI is an Austin, Texas-based, technology corporation formed to provide
computer hardware, software programming, system support, maintenance, media
duplication, and kitting to the public and private sectors. MSI is HUB
certified to do business with state and corporate clients.
MSI is a business solutions technology integrator with infrastructure design
and implementation services. MSI's computer networking services includes
system integration and local and wide-area networks.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements for 1997 and 1996 include the accounts
and transactions of MSRC and MSI. All significant inter-company accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. MSRC, however, did not have any material balance sheet accounts
or account balances, with the exception of a net operating loss of $5.7
million. MSRC, a development stage company, began operations in April 15,
1969 as a mining, mineral extraction and oil and gas exploration company.
MSRC discontinued itsoperations in 1993 and became a develpment stage company
as described in the Statement of Finacial Accounting Stadards #7. Since then
MSRC has actively sought ne business opportunities. The significant account
balances were MSI's.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1997
(Continued)
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The earnings (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the period. All historical
per share data has been restated to reflect stock splits and the effect of
the merger transaction of Micro-Media Solutions, Inc.
Use of Estimates and Certain Concentrations
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions
relating to the valuation and reporting of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Although actual results could differ from those estimates,
Management believes its estimates are reasonable. Certain components,
subassemblies and software included in the Company's computer systems are
obtained from sole suppliers or limited number of suppliers. The company relies,
to a certian extent, upon its suppliers' abilities to enhance existing products
in a timely and cost-effective manner, to develop new poducts to meet changing
customer needs and to respond to emerging standards and other technological
developments in the computer industry. The Company's reliance on a limited
number of suppliers involves several risks, including the possibility of
shortages and/or increases in costs of components and subassemblies, and the
risk of reduced control over delivery schedules.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENT
JUNE 30, 1997
(Continued)
The computer and telecommunications industries. The Company has a large
number of customers on which it performs ongoing credit evaluations and
generally does not require collateral from its customers. Historically,
the Company has not experienced significant losses related to receivables
from individual customers or groups of customers in any particular industry
of geographic area.
Goodwill
On June 23, 1997, Micro-Media Solutions, Inc. (MSI) merged with Mountain
States Resource Corporation (MSRC). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger,
MSRC issued approximately 9,310,000 shares of its common stock in exchange
for all of the outstanding shares of MSI. The name of the surviving
corporation will be changed to MSI. The Merger resulted in a change of
control and was accounted for as a purchase. A new basis of accounting was
established for the assets and liabilities and reflects the allocation on the
basis of their fair walues. Goodwill of approximately $751,000 was recorded
to the extent the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the identifiable
net assets. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight line basis over ten
years.
NOTE . SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS.
The Company owes $200,000 payable in cash to a third party due November 8,
1997 at 20% for borrowings used for acquistion into Mountain States Resources
Corporation.
The Company had a secured credit agreement with Bank One providing for
borrowings of up to $725,000, based on the amount of the Company's eligible
receivables. As of June 30, 1997 the Company owed $700,000 on the line.
Under the agreement, the Company is subject to certain financial and other
covenants including certain financial ratios.
The credit agreement matured on August 18, 1997 and Bank One notified the
company that the bank would not renew the credit line. The Company is
currently searching for a new banking relationship and has tenative agreements
wint two banking institutions.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Continued)
NOTE . GOING CONCERN
As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company
has incurred a net loss in the current quarter of $23,566 and as of that
date, the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by
$180,980. At June 30, 1997, the Company owes accounts payable with dates
due in excess of thirty (30) days. These factors create an uncertainty
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of
the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's
attaining additional financing to fund expenses related to operations and
capital inprovements. The Cimpany has signed a letter of intent for $4 million
on a firm commitment basis with $1,060,000 to be recieved during October,
1997, $1,060,000 to be received during January 1998, and an additional
$2,000,000 during calendar 1998. In addition, the Company plans a secondary
offering during fiscal 1998. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as
a going concern.
Part I: Financial Information Item 2: Management's Discussion and analysis of
financial condition and results of operations
The following discussion and analysis provides information which management
believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's
results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be
read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in
Item 1.
GENERAL
The Company is considered a leading computer networking service provider to
commercial and government markets. Revenue is recognized by the Company
when services are performed. Research and development costs are charged to
expenses as incurred. Among the principal costs to market and sell the
Company's products are advertising and promotion costs, sales, salaries and
commissions, and general and administrative expenses.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
1997 First Quarter and 1996 First Quarter.
Net sales for the 1997 First Quarter were $1,229,784 versus $1,476,905 for
the 1996 First Quarter. A decrease of 16.7 percent. The decrease is
primarily due to increased focus toward service contracts instead of
hardware sales.
Cost of sales was $673,075 in the 1997 First Quarter versus $988,425 in the
1996 First Quarter, a decrease of 31.9 percent. The decrease was the result
of greater service sales effected in 1997 requiring less inventory cost.
The Company's gross margin in the 1997 First Quarter was 45.3% versus 33.1%
in the 1996 First Quarter, an increase of 14.0 percent. This increase was
due to higher service sales with lower inventory costs, resulting in higher
margins.
Selling general and administrative expenses increased to $539,077 in the 1997
First Quarter from $428,246 in the 1996 First Quarter, an increase of 25.9
percent. This increase is primarily due to additional management personnel.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At June 30, 1997, the Company had working capital of $ , compared to a
working capital deficit of $ at June 30, 1996. This increase in the
Company's working capital was primarily due to.
Net cash used by operating activities was $ and $ in the 1997 First
Quarter and the 1996 First Quarter, respectively.
The company has financed its growth primarily through borrowings. As of June
30, 1997, the Company's sources of internal and external financing were
limited. It is not expected that internal sources of liquidity will improve
until net cash is provided by operating activities, and until such time, the
company will rely upon external sources for liquidity.
The Company has signed a letter of intent with an investment banking firm for
$4,000,000 to be funded over the next sixteen months beginning with $1,060,000
on or before October 30, 1997.
PART II: Other Information
Item 2: Changes in Securities
The company is currently engaged in the private placement (the "Private
Placement") of up to 4,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.10 per
share (the "Common Stock") and up to 4,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, par value $.10 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), all to
"accredited investors" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation
D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The Company plans to use the proceeds from the sale of the Shares for working
capital, repayment of indebtedness and hiring of new personnel for recently
received new contracts based upon those in place at September 15, 1997 and
the successful completion of the private placement-funding revenue for
calendar 1998, which should exceed $15,000,000.
The company is obligated under contract to issue up to 1,500,000 shares of
common stock to employees and consultants.
Item 4: Submission of matters to a vote of the security holders
On September 26, 1997, a special meeting of the security holders of the
Company will be held to change the name of the company to Micro-Media
Solutions, Inc.
Item 5: Other Matters
On June 11, 1997, the Company's board of directors replaced Jones & Jensen,
Salt Lake City, Utah as its principal accountant with Salazar & Associates,
Austin, Texas.
The report of Jones and Jensen on the Company's financial statements for the
last two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of
opinion, nor was such opinion qualified or modified as to certainty, audit
scope, or accounting principles. During the Company's two most recent fiscal
years and subsequent interim periods preceding the replacement of Jones &
Jensen, the Company had no disagreements with Jones & Jensen on any matter
of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure. During the Company's two most recent fiscal
years and subsequent interim periods preceding the retention of Salazar &
Associates, neither the Company nor anyone on the Company's behalf,
consulted Salazar & Associates regarding any matter.
