ITEM 1.    DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

     (a)(b) BUSINESS  DEVELOPMENT AND BUSINESS OF THE ISSUER.  Orion  Financial,
Ltd. (the  "Company,"  formerly  known as Orion  Broadcast  Group,  Inc.),  is a
Colorado  corporation  formed on October 7, 1981.  The Company no longer has any
operations.  The  Company is seeking to enter into a business  combination  that
would  provide the Company  with  operations.  Although the Company is currently
investigating  business  combinations,  the  Company  has not  agreed  upon  any
specific business combination.

     The Company  recently  planned to enter the business of  manufacturing  and
selling children's shoes through the acquisition of the assets of a shoe company
that is no longer in  business.  The Company  loaned the  acquisition  candidate
$10,000 and paid $60,000 as a standby letter of credit fee. The  transaction has
not  been  consummated   because  certain  financing   pre-conditions  were  not
satisfied.  The Company  believes  that it will recover the $60,000 fee but will
not recover the $10,000 loan.

     The Company  currently has one part-time  employee,  Dean H. Boedeker,  the
Company's President.

ITEM 2.    DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

     The Company has no properties.

ITEM 3.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     The Company is a party to no legal proceedings.

ITEM 4.    SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

     No matter was submitted to a vote of the Company's  security holders during
the Company's fiscal quarter ended June 30, 1997.

                                     PART II

ITEM 5.    MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
           MATTERS

     (a)  MARKET  INFORMATION.  The  Company's  common  stock is  traded  in the
over-the- counter market. The following table shows the closing high and low bid
quotations for the common stock, for the periods  indicated,  as reported by the

     (b) HOLDERS.  As of October 2, 1997,  the Company had  approximately  1,025
holders of record of its no par value common stock.

     (c)  DIVIDENDS.  The Company has not declared cash  dividends on its common
stock  since its  inception  and the  Company  does not  anticipate  paying  any
dividends in the foreseeable future.

     (d)  RECENT  SALES  OF  UNREGISTERED  SECURITIES.  No  unregistered  equity
securities were sold by the Company between July 1, 1996 and June 30, 1997.

ITEM 6.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF
           OPERATION

     The Company has working capital of approximately $203,041,  which should be
sufficient  for the  Company  to fund its  obligations  for the  next 12  months
provided the Company does not enter into a business  combination  that  provides
the Company with business operations. The Company's minimal cash position limits
the  Company in its  future  direction  because it does not have the  ability to
raise additional funds through  borrowings or equity offerings given its lack of
business  operations.  The long term  survivability  of the  Company  depends on
whether or not the  Company is able to enter  into a business  combination  that
would provide the Company with successful business operations.

     The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures.

ITEM 7.    FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The financial statements are attached following the signature page.

ITEM 8.    CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON
           ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

     There were no changes in accountants or  disagreements of the type required
to be  reported  under  this  item  between  the  Company  and  its  independent
accountants during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.

Board of Directors
Orion Financial, Ltd.
Denver, Colorado


We have audited the accompanying  balance sheet of Orion  Financial,  Ltd. as of
June 30, 1997 and 1996, and the related statements of operations,  stockholders'
equity  and cash  flows  for the  years  ended  June 30,  1997 and  1996.  These
financial  statements are the  responsibility of the Company's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects,  the financial  position of Orion Financial,  Ltd., as of
June 30,  1997,  and the  results of its  operations  and its cash flows for the
years  ended June 30,  1997 and 1996,  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting principles.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.       ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS:

         Orion  Financial,  Ltd. (the Company) was  incorporated  in Colorado in
         1981. Through June 25, 1993, the Company had the following wholly-owned
         subsidiaries:   Orion  Services  Company   (formerly  Vehicle  Resource
         Corporation  or  VRC),   Orion  Broadcast  of  Rockford,   Inc.  (Orion
         Rockford),  and  United  Leasing  Company  (inactive).  In 1987,  Orion
         Rockford formed Orion Financial Services Corporation (Orion Financial),
         a  94%  owned  subsidiary,  to  enter  into  the  acquisition  of  FNRS
         Acquisition  Corporation (FNRS Acquisition).  FNRS Acquisition acquired
         FN  Realty  Services,  Inc.  (FN  Realty)  and  formed  FNRS  Financial
         Corporation   (FNRS)  in  fiscal  1988.  The  operations  of  VRC  were
         discontinued  in fiscal 1990,  while the  operations  of FN Realty were
         discontinued during fiscal 1991.

         On July 13, 1992,  all of the Company's  active  subsidiaries  declared
         bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy code.  Effective June 25,
         1993, the Company sold its entire interest in VRC and Orion Rockford to
         the former  president  of the Company.  At present,  the Company has no
         operations.


2.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

         Cash Equivalents - Cash  equivalents are generally  comprised of highly
         liquid  instruments  with original  maturities of three months or less,
         such as money funds and certificates of deposit.  These investments are
         stated at cost which approximates market value.

         Net  Income  (Loss)  Per Share - Net  income  (loss) per share has been
         computed  based on the weighted  average  number of shares  outstanding
         during  the  period.   Stock   options  have  been  excluded  from  the
         computation because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

         Income Taxes - The Company  accounts for income taxes on the  liability
         method,   which  requires   recognition  of  deferred  tax  assets  and
         liabilities  for the expected  future tax  consequences  of events that
         have been  included in the financial  statements or tax returns.  Under
         this method,  deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined  based
         on the  difference  between the financial  statements  and tax bases of
         assets and  liabilities  using enacted tax rates in effect for the year
         in which the differences are expected to reverse.

         Use  of  Estimates  -  The  preparation  of  the  Company's   financial
         statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting  principles
         requires the  Company's  management to make  estimates and  assumptions
         that affect the  amounts  reported in these  financial  statements  and
         accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

         Accounting for  Stock-Based  Compensation - In fiscal 1997, the Company
         adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards
         No. 123,  "Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation" (FAS 123). FAS 123
         encourages,  but does not require,  companies to recognize compensation
         expense  for  grants  of  stock,   stock  options,   and  other  equity
         instruments  to employees  based on fair value.  Companies  that do not
         adopt the fair  value  accounting  rules  must  disclose  the impact of

         adopting  the  new  method  in the notes to the  financial  statements.
         Transactions in equity  instruments   with  non-employees  for goods or
         services must  be accounted  for on the fair value method.  The Company
         has elected not to adopt  the fair value accounting  prescribed by SFAS
         123  for  its  employees,  and  is   subject  only  to  the  disclosure
         requirements.  The adoption of SFAS  123 had no effect on the Company's
         financial statements.


3.       STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:

         The Company  adopted an incentive  stock option plan in 1984  reserving
         312,500  shares of common stock for certain  employees,  officers,  and
         directors.  The  exercise  price was  required  to be at least the fair
         market  value of the  stock on the date of the  grant,  and the term of
         each option granted was not to be for more than ten years from the date
         of the grant. The plan expired in February 1994.

         If options  were  granted to  individuals  owning more than ten percent
         (10%) of the outstanding  common stock, the exercise price had to be at
         least one hundred ten  percent  (110%) of the fair market  value of the
         stock on the date of the  grant  and the term for each  option  granted
         would not be for more than five years from the date of the grant.

         On July 13, 1987, the Board of Directors of the Company granted a stock
         option  under the 1984  stock  option  plan for  187,500  shares of the
         Company's  common stock to a director  and officer of the Company.  The
         option was  exercisable at $.72 per share with 62,500 options  expiring
         in July 1992,  1993,  and 1994. No options were exercised and they have
         all expired.  In June 1991,  the Board granted a stock option under the
         1984 plan to an officer of the Company for 30,000 shares exercisable at
         $.47 per share through 2001. None of these options have been exercised.

         On November 8, 1991,  the Company  adopted a 1991  Non-Qualified  Stock
         Option Plan for the  directors,  officers and employees of the Company.
         Two  million  shares are  reserved  under this plan.  The terms of each
         option  granted will not be for more than ten years from date of grant,
         and no options can be granted under the plan after November 8, 2001.

         In April 1993,  the Board of  Directors  of the Company  granted  stock
         options  covering  2,000,000  shares  of the  Company's  common  stock,
         400,000  shares  each to four  directors  of the  Company  at that time
         (including  the  president of the  Company),  and 400,000  shares to an
         individual   from  the  Company's   legal  counsel.   The  options  are
         exercisable  at $.03  per  share.  In  September  1996,  the  Board  of
         Directors  extended the  expiration  date of these options to September
         2001. None have been exercised to date.

         In  September  1996,  the  Board of  Directors  granted  stock  options
         covering  400,000  shares to a director,  exercisable at $.03 per share
         through September 2001.

         The market price of the Company's  common stock was $.005 per share. If
         compensation  cost had been  recognized  using the fair value  approach
         prescribed by SFAS 123 rather than the intrinsic value method under APB
         25, there would have been no change to the Company's reported net loss.

                              ORION FINANCIAL, LTD.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



         The Company has authorized, but unissued,  preferred stock which may be
         issued in series with such  preferences  as determined by the Company's
         Board of Directors.


4.       INCOME TAXES:

         The amounts  which give rise to the net deferred tax asset  (liability)
         as of June 30, 1997, are as follows:


               Net operating loss carryforward                     $ 444,000
               Valuation allowance                                  (444,000)
                                                                    --------

               Net deferred tax asset                              $    --
                                                                    ========


         At  June  30,  1997,  the  Company  had  net  operating   losses  (NOL)
         carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately  $1,200,000 that
         will  expire  between  1997 and  2012.  Upon the sale of the  Company's
         subsidiaries   in  June  1993,  a   substantial   portion  of  the  NOL
         carryforwards  were  lost  for use by the  Company,  as they  had  been
         incurred at the subsidiary level.


5.       SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

         Subsequent to June 30, 1997, the Company advanced approximately $60,000
         for a standby  letter of credit fee  related to a proposed  acquisition
         candidate. In addition, the Company loaned  $10,000  to the acquisition
         candidate.  Certain  preconditions to the acquisition have not occurred
         and it is currently  unlikely that the acquisition will be consummated.
         The  Company's  advance for the  standby  letter of credit fee is being
         held by a law firm in Hong Kong,  China and the Company  has  requested
         its  return.  The  $10,000  loan will be  recorded as a bad debt in the
         first quarter of fiscal 1998.
