                                                         $1,228


    In June 1994, the Company completed a capital restructuring
    with all three of the shareholders holding the debt described
    above.  The agreements with these shareholders provide for
    the following:

      (1)   Conversion of $1,807,000 of current and long-
            term debt into a new series of Convertible
            Preferred Stock of the Company;

      (2)   Deferral of the due dates for repayment of the
            300,000 Swiss francs ($243,000) note payable; and

      (3)   Elimination of all of the outstanding warrants
            currently held by these shareholders to purchase up
            to 8,390,000 additional shares of the Company's
            Common Stock.

    The conversion of $1,807,000 of debt ($1,743,000, net of
    related costs) to preferred shares resulted in the issuance
    of 584,257 shares of Series C Preferred Stock.  This
    Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the
    shareholders into common shares at a rate of nine common
    shares for each preferred share, has voting rights as if the
    shares were already converted, and features a 10% non-
    cumulative dividend subject to the discretion of the board of
    directors.  Following the completion of these transactions,
    the Company has approximately 22.2 million shares of Common
    Stock and Common Stock Equivalents outstanding and no
    warrants outstanding.

    Substantially all of the Company's assets were encumbered
    under the former debt agreements with affiliates.  Following
    the transactions, the only assets which remain as security
    for long-term debt to affiliates are the accounts receivable
    and any inventory of ALPNET, Inc. (the U.S. parent company).

    In conjunction with the capital restructuring described
    above, the Company entered into a "financial monitoring
    agreement" with the Company's major shareholder which
    requires the Company, among other things, to obtain prior
    approval from this shareholder for major financing
    transactions and the purchase or sale of a major portion of
    the Company's assets.

    As described in more detail in Note 5, the former owner of
    the Company's German subsidiary also agreed to an additional
    deferral of two years for the acquisition guarantee. 
    Accordingly, the September 30, 1994 consolidated balance
    sheet reflects the acquisition guarantee of $990,000 as long-
    term rather than as a current liability.


3.  DEBT TO AFFILIATES

    In July 1994, the Company entered into an agreement with a
    current shareholder (who is also the former owner of the
    Company's German subsidiary) in order to finance a portion of
    a pension obligation owed to this shareholder.  In connection
    with this agreement, the Company entered into a 300,000
    Deutsche Mark ($185,000) note payable which is unsecured,
    bears interest at 8%, and is due in monthly installments of
    approximately $3,000 through June 1999.

    Following this transaction and the conversion of debt to
    equity and the deferral of the due dates of the $243,000 note
    payable described in Note 2, the Company's maturities for all
    debt to affiliates are as follows:<PAGE>
     (Thousands of dollars)

                                                  $427


4.  INCOME TAXES

    The Company files a consolidated U.S. Federal income tax
    return which includes all domestic operations.  Tax returns
    of foreign subsidiaries are filed in accordance with
    applicable laws.  Fluctuations in the amount of income taxes
    arise primarily from the varying combinations of income and
    losses of the Company's subsidiaries in the various domestic
    and foreign tax jurisdictions, including the utilization in
    various degrees of net operating loss carryforwards in many
    of these jurisdictions.

    As of December 31, 1993, the Company's operating loss
    carryforwards for state income tax purposes expired. 
    Accordingly, income taxes for the nine months ended September
    30, 1994 include a provision of approximately $30,000 for
    State of Utah income taxes with no corresponding provision
    for 1993.  

5.  ACQUISITION GUARANTEE

    In 1988, the Company acquired its German subsidiary for a
    combination of cash and shares of the Company's Common Stock. 
    The acquisition agreement requires the Company to give
    additional consideration if the value of the shares of Common
    Stock did not reach an agreed-upon level within a specified
    period following the acquisition, and remain at that level
    until the former owner was able to sell the shares of the
    Company's Common Stock for an amount equal to the stipulated
    purchase price in the acquisition agreement.  As a result of
    this requirement, the Company issued additional shares to the
    former owner in 1990.

    In 1993, the Company and the former owner entered into an
    agreement which amended the original acquisition agreement. 
    This agreement waives the requirement to pay any additional
    consideration if the value of all shares of Common Stock
    previously issued reached the stipulated purchase price on or
    before September 30, 1994 (which date was subsequently
    extended to September 30, 1996, as discussed below).  If the
    stock value does not reach such amount, the Company is
    required to pay interest on the stock value deficiency
    beginning on September 30, 1996.  Alternatively, the Company
    could settle such deficiency by making additional payments to
    the former owner.

    As a result of this waiver agreement, the Company recorded a
    guarantee liability in the consolidated balance sheets for
    the stock value deficiency calculated based on the trading
    value per share of the Company's Common Stock as compared to
    the guaranteed value at the balance sheet dates.  A decrease
    in shareholders' equity has also been recorded for the same
    amounts.

    In conjunction with the capital restructuring discussed in
    Note 2, the former owner of the German subsidiary agreed to
    an additional deferral of two years (from September 1994 to
    September 1996) before any potential interest payments would
    be required to be made for any stock value deficiency.

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

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis should be read
in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and
notes thereto.

Foreign Operations

The Company serves its customers from 25 offices in 10 countries. 
The operations of the Company are predominantly located outside
the U.S.  Accordingly, the Company is subject to the effects of
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations among U.S. dollars,
British pounds sterling, German marks, French francs, Canadian
dollars, Swiss francs and other currencies.  For all of the
Company's foreign subsidiaries, the functional currency has been
determined to be the local currency.  Accordingly, assets and
liabilities are adjusted to reflect period-end exchange rates,
and operating statement items are adjusted at average exchange
rates prevailing during the period.  The resultant cumulative
foreign currency adjustments to the assets and liabilities are
recorded as a separate component of shareholders' equity.  A
significant portion of the cumulative foreign currency adjustment
relates to changes in the recorded amount of goodwill.

For the three months ended September 30, 1994, the foreign
currency adjustment was positive $249,000 compared to a negative
adjustment of $18,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1993.  For the nine months ended September 30, 1994, the foreign
currency adjustment was positive $655,000 compared to a negative
adjustment of $191,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1993.  As of September 30, 1994, the cumulative net effect to the
Company of the equity adjustment from foreign currency
fluctuations is a reduction of $1.5 million in shareholders'
equity.


Results of Operations

In addition to the above balance sheet effects, fluctuating
foreign currency exchange rates also affected the consolidated
operations of the Company for the periods presented.  The
following paragraphs describe these effects on results for the
three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994 as
compared with the three- and nine-month periods ended September
30, 1993.

The Company recorded net income of $25,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1994 compared with net income of $119,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1993.  If foreign currency
exchange rates for 1994 had remained unchanged from 1993, the
Company would have recorded net income of $37,000 instead of
$25,000.  Therefore, the decrease in net operating results from
1993 to 1994 of $94,000 consists of a decrease due to actual
operating results of $82,000 and a $12,000 decrease due to
currency exchange rate fluctuations.

The Company experienced a net loss of $646,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994 compared with net income of
$330,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1993.  If
foreign currency exchange rates for 1994 had remained unchanged
from 1993, the Company would have recorded a net loss of $648,000
instead of $646,000.  Therefore, the decrease in net operating
results from 1993 to 1994 of $976,000 consists of a decrease due
to actual operating results of $978,000 and a $2,000 increase due
to currency exchange rate fluctuations.

The following table shows a comparison of sales of services in
each of the Company's  primary geographic areas for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993:

</TABLE>

Sales of services were approximately $5.5 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1994 as compared with approximately
$5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 1993.  The
$525,000 increase in reported sales from the third quarter of
1993 to the third quarter of 1994 consists of an increase in
sales volume of $365,000 and a $160,000 increase due to currency
exchange rate variances.

Sales of services were $14.63 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1994 as compared with $14.56 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1993.  The $66,000 increase in
reported sales from the first nine months of 1993 to the first
nine months of 1994 consists of an increase in sales volume of
$163,000 and a $97,000 decrease due to currency exchange rate
variances.  There were significant increases in sales volume in
Canada, the U.K. and Asia.  However, these increases in sales
were largely negated by significant decreases in the U.S. and
Germany.  

Canadian sales have improved markedly despite a difficult
economic environment in that country and are due in part to
increased international trading as well as marketing efforts
initiated in mid-1993.  Increased sales in the UK are primarily a
result of improved economic conditions and, to a lesser extent,
the implementation of a focused sales and marketing plan.  Asian
sales are growing as a result of increased client demand for
translation into Asian languages and the opening in July 1994 of
an office in Korea.

The decreases in sales volume in the U.S. and Germany primarily
resulted from reductions in sales to large customers in these
countries as major customers reduced the size and frequency of
their orders for the translation of their product documentation. 
The market in the U.S. has been extremely price competitive and
the Company has lost certain repeat orders from existing
customers due to price considerations.  The decline in sales in
Germany also reflects the residual effects of a generally
sluggish economy, despite signs of economic improvement in recent
months.

Cost of services sold increased as a percentage of sales of
services for the three- and nine- months ended September 30,
1994, as compared with the same periods in 1993, as a result of
significant competitive pressures on sales prices and resulting
margins, the volume and nature of direct production costs of
large project sales in each period, and certain fixed costs which
do not vary with fluctuating sales levels. There was also an
$85,000 decrease in cost of services attributable to currency
exchange rate differences for the nine months ended September 30,
1994 compared to the same period in 1993.  

Generally, the volume of work the Company is producing has been
increasing;  however, the work has been sold at much lower prices
in 1994 than in 1993.  Due to increased competition, especially
with regard to pricing, the Company expects pressures on gross
margins to continue throughout the remainder of 1994 and into
1995.  The Company does not expect to be able to return to 1993
pricing levels in the foreseeable future and is continuing its
efforts to reduce costs to offset the effects of these pricing
pressures.

The decreases in selling, general and administrative expenses for
the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 1994, compared
with the same periods in 1993, are principally the result of
decreases in general corporate administrative costs, partially
offset by the costs of increased marketing efforts and the
opening of new offices in the U.S., Germany and Korea during 1993
and 1994.   

The decrease in interest expense of approximately $50,000 and
$150,000, respectively, for the three- and nine-months ended
September 30, 1994, compared with the same periods in 1993,
resulted principally from the capital restructuring completed in
the second quarter of 1994 which eliminated approximately $1.8
million of long-term debt to affiliates.  Reference is made to
Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, "Capital
Restructuring," for further details of the restructuring
transactions.

The U.S. parent company and each of its subsidiaries are separate
legal and taxable entities subject to the domestic or foreign
taxes pertaining to operations in their respective jurisdictions. 
For tax purposes, the U.S. parent company and most of its
subsidiaries have unused net operating losses from prior years
which can be utilized to reduce future years' taxable income of
the respective entities.  The availability of these net operating
losses is governed by applicable domestic and foreign tax rules
and regulations, some of which limit the utilization of such
losses due to minimum tax requirements and other provisions. 

Income tax expense, as presented in the accompanying Consolidated
Financial Statements, represents the combined income tax expense
and income tax credits of each of the entities of the Company. 
Fluctuations in the amount of income taxes arise primarily from
the varying combinations of income and losses of the Company's
subsidiaries in the various domestic and foreign tax
jurisdictions, including the utilization in various degrees of
net operating loss carryforwards in many of these jurisdictions. 
Note 4 to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements,
"Income Taxes," contains additional information pertaining to the
computation of income taxes.


Liquidity and Sources of Capital

At September 30, 1994, the Company's cash and cash equivalents
were approximately $660,000 and the Company had working capital
of approximately $1,250,000.  At December 31, 1993, the Company's
working capital was approximately $125,000.  The primary reason
for the increase in working capital during the first nine months
of 1994 is the elimination of the current portion of long-term
debt as a result of the previously mentioned capital
restructuring.

For the nine months ended September 30, 1994, the Company had a
negative cash flow from operating activities of $470,000 compared
with a positive cash flow from operations for the nine months
ended September 30, 1993 of $490,000.  For both periods, the
Company's investing activities consisted primarily of the
acquisition of equipment needed to maintain or upgrade production
capability.  

Financing activities for both periods included fluctuations in
the amounts utilized under bank lines of credit which are used to
finance the Company's working capital needs.  Additionally, in
1994, the Company increased its borrowings from affiliates by
$185,000 in order to finance a pension obligation owed to one of
the affiliates, the former owner of one of its subsidiaries.  In
1993, the Company issued Common Stock for cash of $525,000 and
primarily used the proceeds to retire long-term debt to banks.

The Company's primary working capital needs relate to the funding
of customer accounts receivable.  The Company funds some of its
working capital needs with various lines of credit with banks in
the U.K., Spain, Germany and Canada.  Most of the lines of credit
are secured by accounts receivable and other assets of the
respective subsidiaries and are subject to annual renewals.  In
addition to available cash, as of September 30, 1994 the Company
had unused amounts under these lines of credit of approximately
$370,000.  If future operations provide a positive cash flow, the
Company believes the available amounts under these lines of
credit will be sufficient to fund operations at current levels as
well as enable the Company to grow at a modest level without
seeking significant new sources of working capital.

The Company currently has no significant commitments for capital
expenditures.  The Company does plan, however, to acquire and
place additional translation services workstations in its offices
worldwide in connection with future orders from customers, as
such orders are received.  Such equipment purchases in future
periods are not expected to vary materially from the levels of
equipment purchases experienced in recent periods.  The Company
expects to finance a certain portion of the equipment cost
through bank and/or leasing sources.  Additionally, while there
are no current commitments, the Company may open additional
offices in strategic locations worldwide, as customer demands
dictate and opportunities arise.  For example, in July 1994, the
Company opened a sales and production office in Korea in order to
meet the increased demand for translation into the Korean
language.  The costs of opening this office were not substantial
and were almost exclusively related to the procurement of
computer equipment and other translation-related equipment.  The
costs of any additional offices are not expected to require a
significant amount of cash.

As a result of the capital restructuring consummated in the
second quarter of 1994, the Company's long-term debt to
affiliates (including approximately $820,000 which was due in
1994) was reduced from $2,050,000 to $243,000 and outstanding
preferred stock increased by over $1.7 million.  As a result of
this and other transactions, since December 31, 1993 the
Company's total shareholders' equity has increased from $6.1
million to $7.5 million.

The Company believes it has the ability to issue additional
equity securities if necessary, but does not currently have any
firm plans to do so.  In past years, the Company has relied on
major shareholders of the Company to fund certain obligations,
but does not anticipate using this source of capital in the
foreseeable future.

As a result of anticipated future cash flows from operations and
available cash and bank lines of credit, together with
management's plans to increase revenues and control expenses,
management believes that the Company's cash flow will be adequate
to meet its financial obligations during 1994.  It is more
difficult to assess cash flow beyond 1994 and the ability of the
Company to meet its long-term commitments without additional
sources of capital is directly related to the Company's
operations providing a positive cash flow.

Additional details of the Company's notes payable to banks, long-
term debt and long-term debt to affiliates are included in Notes
2 and 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein
and Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in
the Company's 1993 Annual Report to Shareholders.

Due to prior years' operating losses, the Company and many of its
subsidiaries have net operating loss carryforwards available to
offset future taxable income in the various countries in which
the Company operates.  As a result, the Company historically has
not had significant income tax liabilities arise requiring the
expenditure of cash.  Due to currently available net operating
loss carryforwards, the Company expects this general trend to
continue in 1994 and in 1995.<PAGE>
