Part I
Item 1. DESCRIPTION/BUSINESS.
(a) BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT. Cambridge Holdings, Ltd. the Registrant (the
"Company"), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on June 23,
1980 under the name Jones Optical Company. The Company's name was changed to
Cambridge Holdings, Ltd. in August 1988.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, the Company purchased two
undeveloped lots in the Vail, Colorado area. Each of these lots has been
conveyed to a limited liability company. The Company is a member of each limited
liability company, together with the Zneimer Company, Inc. an experienced real
estate developer located in Vail. Each of the limited liability companies has
developed a luxury residence for sale.
In July 1997 the Company purchased raw land in Glenwood Springs, Colorado for
$925,000, including a mortgage note in the amount of $675,000. Originally
management intended to develop the property into condominium/office units.
However as no commitments were obtained, the Company determined not to
proceed with construction. The Company has improved the lots by beginning
some engineering.
At present, the Company is studying its options to either develop the
property into condominium/office units, develop it in a different manner or
to sell the property unimproved.
(b) Business of the Company. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997,
the Company purchased in two separate transactions from two different
unaffiliated sellers of raw land in an area known as Cordillera in Eagle County,
Colorado west of Vail. Each lot was conveyed to a limited liability company in
<PAGE>
which the Company is a member with a 50% interest. Each lot has been developed
with a separate luxury residence.
The two lots purchased by the Company are known as Lot 2 and Lot 19, which were
purchased for $357,000 and $366,000, respectively. CVC Lot 2 LLC and CVC Lot 19
LLC are limited liability companies organized in Colorado in March 1997. The
members of CVC Lot 2 LLC and CVC Lot 19 LLC are the Company and Zneimer Company,
Inc., each of which has contributed $1,000 to the capital of the LLC's and each
of which has a 50% interest in the net profits and losses of the LLC's. Zneimer
Company, Inc. is the manager of both LLC's. CVC Lot 2 LLC and CVC Lot 19 LLC
were formed for the limited purpose of developing, constructing and selling a
residential dwelling upon their lots unless otherwise agreed to by both members.
In May 1997, the Company conveyed Lot 2 to CVC Lot 2 LLC in consideration for a
promissory note for $357,000 secured by a mortgage on the Lot 2 property. The
note bears interest at the prime rate at the Firstbank of Avon, as changed from
time to time, which commenced at 8.5%. The note is due on the earlier of sale of
the property or December 31, 1998. CVC Lot 2 LLC has obtained a construction
loan of $963,700 from the Firstbank of Avon, Colorado, which construction loan
has been guaranteed by Zneimer Company, Inc. and its sole shareholder Edward J.
Zneimer. The construction loan bears interest at the prime rate of the Firstbank
of Avon as changed from time to time, which commenced at 8.5%. The construction
loan matures on May 10, 1999 and is secured by a mortgage on the Lot 2 property.
The mortgage held by the Company to secure its note made by CVC Lot 2 LLC has
been subordinated to the construction loan. Zneimer Company, Inc. and Mr.
Zneimer, individually, have guaranteed 50% of the principal amount of the note
made by CVC Lot 2 LLC to the Company.
In February 1998, the Company entered an agreement to loan CVC Lot 2 LLC as much
as $56,250, secured by a Third Mortgage Deed to provide additional capital
required to complete the development and sale of the Lot 2 property. The loan
earns interest at a rate of 12%. CVC Lot 2 LLC has subsequently borrowed the
entire amount available of $56,250. Beginning in August 1998, the Company and
Zneimer Company have contributed equally such additional capital required to
complete the development and sale of the Lot 2 property in the form of unsecured
loans, subject to a maximum of $100,000 each. The Company has contributed an
additional $13,111 as of the date of this filing. In the event the additional
capital contributions and proceeds of the construction loan are still
insufficient to enable CVC Lot 2 LLC to sell the Lot 2 property, Zneimer
Company, Inc. has agreed with the Company to purchase a 50% interest in the
Company's note from CVC Lot 2 LLC at a purchase price equal to 50% of the
original principal amount, in which event the guaranty to the Company will be
canceled. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not exercised this
option.
<PAGE>
Construction on Lot 2 was completed in early 1998. The general contractor was
Integrated Resources LLC, which is owned and managed by Mr. Zneimer. The
residence is a custom-designed single-family home featuring an open,
multi-level floor plan with high ceilings and large covered porches
overlooking the Tom Fazio designed Cordillera Valley Golf Club golf course.
The home includes four bedrooms, 4 1/2 baths, three fireplaces and an
oversized three-car garage. The Lot 2 property has been listed for sale at
$1,795,000. Due to the inability to sell the home to date, management
anticipates making changes to the house to make it more saleable and is
concerned that the anticipated profit may not be earned.
The transactions involving Lot 19 were substantially identical to those
involving Lot 2 except that the entity to which Lot 19 was conveyed was CVC
Lot 19 LLC, the amount paid for Lot 19 was $366,000 and the construction loan
was for $1,019,000. An additional agreement was made between the Company and
CVC #19 LLC in September 1998 in which the Company agreed to loan CVC Lot 19
LLC an additional $50,000, secured by a Third Mortgage Deed to provide
additional capital required to complete the development and sale of the Lot
19 property. The loan earns interest at a rate of 12%. CVC Lot 19 LLC has not
borrowed any funds as of the date of this filing. The Company and Zneimer
Company, Inc. have agreed that they will each contribute such additional
capital contributions to CVC Lot 19 LLC in the form of unsecured loans,
subject to a maximum of $100,000 each, as may be required to complete the
development and sale of the Lot 19 property. In September 1998, the Company
and Zneimer Company each contributed $1,923 which is the only additional
capital contributed thus far. Construction on Lot 19 was completed in 1998
and the listed price for the property is $1,795,000.
The lots are located in Cordillera Valley Club, a mountain golf community of 1
to 11-acre home sites and custom-designed residences, tennis courts, 15 miles of
hiking and cross-country ski trails, a fly-fishing river, mountain bike and
nature trails. The lots are being developed in a golf community planned with
care for natural aesthetic values. Accordingly, the home sites in the community
are being developed to minimize the impact of development upon the varied
vegetation and indigenous wildlife unique to the area. Deer and elk grazing and
calving areas have been carefully preserved along with native grasses, shrubs
and trees. The home sites in the community have been planned to maximize
mountain views, as well as the extensive aspen groves, forests of fir and
spruce, and varied terrain of adjacent canyons and draws which is characteristic
of the area.
Cordillera Valley Club is located in an area referred to as the "Upper Eagle
Valley" which lies west of Vail. The Vail and Beaver Creek resorts are located
25 and 15 minutes away, respectively, by car from Cordillera. Vail was founded
in 1962, and is now the nation's largest ski area by acreage of skiable terrain.
The economy of the Upper Eagle Valley is based primarily upon the resort
industry, with major revenues being derived from skiing, real estate
concessions, restaurants, and short-term lodging. Cordillera is primarily a
second home/resort
<PAGE>
community. As such, it may have a greater than average susceptibility to
general economic conditions, and may be impacted by the cost, accessibility and
continued desirability of area recreational facilities such as the Vail and
Beaver Creek ski areas as well as the private golf facilities. In addition,
there will be significant competition from other developers in Cordillera as
well as other developments in the area, including some which are in close
proximity to Cordillera. The impact of this competition cannot be assessed
because future demand cannot be predicted with accuracy and the factors
influencing the success of each development are speculative.
In July 1997, the Company purchased approximately three acres of raw land in
Glenwood Springs, Colorado for $925,000, including a mortgage of $675,000. The
mortgage bears interest at 9% per annum, payable $5,431 per month and is due on
July 15, 1999. There is no prepayment penalty. Although management has improved
the lots by beginning some engineering, a final decision regarding development
of the project has not been made. In the event the Company determines to proceed
with the project, it is anticipated that the Company will enter into an
arrangement with Zneimer Company, Inc. to develop this property.
The Company is currently considering other real estate development activities,
as well as other business opportunities. In addition to real property
acquisitions, the Company may consider the possible acquisition of, or merger
with, another business entity, or other type of business transactions. The
Company does not intend to limit its search to companies in real estate
activities. A substantial amount of time may lapse and the Company may expend
considerable funds for consulting, legal, accounting and other fees before the
Company is able, if at all, to acquire other real estate interests or businesses
outside the real estate industry. From time to time, the Company also acquires
equity securities, which have a potential for capital gains or, in some cases,
income potential. The Company has no limitations on the percentage of assets
which may be invested in any one instrument, or type of investment, nor is the
Company limited in the types of real estate in which the Company may invest. The
Company's determination of the method of operating and financing its properties
is not fixed, and will, instead depend on the type of property purchased and the
Company's objective in operating the particular property.
COMPETITION. The investment and real estate business is highly
competitive and the Company competes with numerous entities engaged in
investment and real estate activities, many of which have greater financial
resources than those of the Company. The Company's management believes that
success against such competition is dependent upon the quality of the
investments, the geographic location of the property, the amount of new
construction in the area and the design and appearance of the property. The
Company's management believes that general economic circumstances and trends
and new properties in the vicinity of each of the Company's properties will
also be competitive factors.
EMPLOYEES. The Company has no full-time employees; however, Gregory Pusey,
the Company's President, devotes a significant amount of time to the affairs of
the Company.
Item 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES.
The Company's administrative activities are conducted at the Company's
corporate headquarters located in Vail, Colorado in space shared by the Company
with an affiliate, Livingston Capital, Ltd. ("Livingston"). The
<PAGE>
Company pays Livingston a monthly fee of $750 for its share of rent in addition
to certain overhead administrative expenses. A description of real estate
business activities is included in Item 1.
Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company is not involved in any material, pending 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 fourth quarter covered by this Report, and the Item is, therefore,

Item 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
<PAGE>
The information set forth in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" below includes "forward looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and is
subject to the safe harbor created by that section. Factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from these contained in the forward looking
statements are set forth in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations."
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
The Company's cash and working capital positions were adequate at June
30, 1998. Cash on hand increased to approximately $1,674,500 at June 30, 1998
from $1,640,200 at June 30, 1997.
For the period ended June 30, 1998, operating activities generated cash
flow of $21,700 as compared to a negative cash flow of $170,900 for the year
ended June 30, 1997. The Company created a provision for possible losses on
investment securities of $102,000 and earned interest income on investment
securities of $22,500 during the year ended June 30, 1998 compared to $0 for the
year ended June 30, 1997. Gains from the sale of investment securities decreased
from approximately $165,800 to $44,203 and depreciation increased from $178 in
1997 to $12,000 in 1998. Prepaid expenses and accounts receivable decreased by
approximately $111,100 in the year ended June 30, 1998 primarily due to
unsettled trades at June 30, 1997 of $81,500. Other accrued liabilities
decreased by $830 in 1998.
Cash provided by investing activities was approximately $13,600 during
the year ended June 30, 1998 compared to $494,600 during the year ended June 30,
1997. Approximately $234,500 was used to purchase investment securities and
$264,200 was used to purchase land. The Company purchased fixed assets for
$47,500 and had an increase in notes receivable of $36,900. Cash provided from
investing securities during fiscal 1998 was from the net proceeds from sales of
investment securities of $214,100, and $382,500 was the collection of notes
receivable. In the comparable period in 1997, cash provided from investing
activities was from the maturity of short-term investments of $1,493,700 offset
by an increase in notes receivable of $225,000 and investing in real estate
developments of $737,400. The values of the land and securities held by the
Company are often highly volatile. In addition, trading in these securities may
be thin or there may be other impediments to, or restrictions on transfer.
Financing activities during the year ended June 30, 1998 used cash of
approximately $1,000 of which $4,200 was principal payments on notes payable.
Approximately, $3,200 was generated from the exercise of stock options.
<PAGE>
At June 30, 1998, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$1,674,500 and working capital of $3,457,000. CVC Lot 2 LLC and CVC
Lot 19 LLC have incurred debt financing in the amounts of $963,725 and
$1,019,331, respectively, for the construction of the luxury residential
properties. In addition to the debt financing, the Company has loaned CVC Lot
2 LLC $69,400 to aid in completing and selling the residential property. Due
to the inability to sell the homes to date, management anticipates making
changes to the house to make them more saleable and is concerned that the
anticipated profit may not be earned once sold. In its consideration of
potential business opportunities, the Company expects to consider the
potential effect on its liquidity.
In July 1998 the Company purchased land in Glenwood Springs, Colorado for
$925,000, including a mortgage note in the amount of $675,000. The Company is
considering what development activities, if any, it will undertake on this
land.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The Company has completed a review and risk assessment of all technology items
used in its operations. The Company believes that the year 2000 problem will
pose no significant operational problems. The Company's accounting software
program as well as other office software will be upgraded during 1999 to be year
2000 compliant. The Company estimates that the cost of the upgrades will be
approximately $1,000. The Company will review the status of the year 2000
issues with its financial institutions.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1997, FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive
income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income is
defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures,
SFAS No. 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under
current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be
reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence
as other financial statements.
Also, in June 1997, FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of
an Enterprise and Related Information" which supersedes SFAS No. 14,
"Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise". SFAS No. 131
establishes standards for the way that public companies report information
about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires
reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim
financial statements issued to the public. It also establishes standards for
disclosures regarding products and services, geographic areas and major
customers. SFAS No. 131 defines operating segments as components of a
company about which separate financial information is available that is
evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to
allocate resources and in assessing performance.
In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" which standardizes the disclosure
requirements for pensions and other postretirement benefits and requires
additional information on changes in the benefit obligations and fair values of
plan assets that will facilitate financial analysis. SFAS No. 132 is effective
for years beginning after December 15, 1997, and requires comparative
information for earlier years to be restated, unless such information is not
readily available. Management believes the adoption of this statement will have
no material impact on the Company's financial statements.
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" which requires companies to record
derivatives on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair
market value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of those
derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and
whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The key criterion for hedge
accounting is that the hedging relationship must be highly effective in
achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows. SFAS No. 133 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after
<PAGE>
June 15, 1999. Management believes the adoption of this statement will have no
material impact on the Company's financial statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
The Company's revenues for the year ended June 30, 1998 totaled
approximately $178,100, consisting of gains on the sale of securities of
approximately $44,200 and interest and dividend income of $133,900. Revenues
for the year ended June 30, 1997 totaled approximately $328,400, consisting of
gains on the sale of securities of approximately $165,800 and interest and
dividend income of $162,700. The registrant's dividend and interest income
decreased primarily because of an increase in use of funds for real estate
development in 1998.
During the years ended June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1997, the Company
incurred operating, general and administrative costs of approximately
$167,000 and $176,000, respectively. The Company also incurred a write-down
of impaired assets of $102,000 during 1998. The Company had a loss before
taxes for the year ended June 30, 1998 of approximately $146,500 as compared
with income before taxes of approximately $152,200 for the year ended June
30, 1997. The Company anticipates a tax benefit of $10,000 in 1998 as a
result of the loss carryback to 1997.
INCOME TAXES
As discussed in Note 5 to the accompanying financial statements, the Company
has $38,000 in deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance of $38,000 has been
established for the net deferred tax assets arising from the allowance for
losses on investments because the Company has not been able to determine that
it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will be realized.

STOCK OPTIONS.
The information concerning the grant of stock options under the Company's
Non-Discretionary Stock Option Plan and its 1988 Stock Option Plan, to the
executive officers is not applicable as Mr. Pusey was not granted any options in
1998, nor does he hold any options granted in prior years.
STOCK OPTION PLAN. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1989 the Company
adopted the 1988 Stock Option Plan (the "1988 Plan"). The 1988 Plan was
designed to provide incentives for key employees of the Company. In September
1992, the shareholders approved an increase from 200,000 to 400,000 in the
number of shares issuable pursuant to the 1988 Plan and the elimination of a
provision of the 1988 Plan that limited the number of shares underlying
options that could be granted to any one individual to 40,000 shares in a
fiscal year. The 1998 Plan terminated in May 1998, except that previously
granted options will remain outstanding until terminated in accordance with
the individual option agreements.
The 1988 Plan was administered by an Option Committee. The Board of
Directors serves as the Option Committee with respect to options to employees
who are not directors of the Company. With respect to options to employees
who also are directors, however, the 1988 Plan was, on September 12, 1991,
amended to comply with certain rules promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission to provide that the 1988 Plan is administered by a
committee of two directors selected by the Board, each of whom shall not have
received, within one year prior to his service on the Committee, options
under the 1988 Plan or any other discretionary stock plan of the Company.
During the year ended June 30, 1996, Dr. Altshuler and Mr. Yager served as
members of the Option Committee with respect to options to employees who also
were directors.
The Option Committee may adopt rules and regulations for carrying out the
purpose of the 1988 Plan and is authorized, within the limits of the 1988 Plan,
to determine the individuals to whom, and the time or times at which, options
will be granted, the number of shares to be subject to each grant (except as
provided below) and the applicable restriction period. In addition, the Option
Committee may determine the purchase price for the shares subject to the option
and specify such other terms and provisions of any grants of options under the
1988 Plan as it deems necessary or desirable; provided, however, that grants
intended to qualify as incentive stock options shall not be for less than 100
percent of the fair market
<PAGE>
value of the shares underlying the grant on the date of the grant.
The 1988 Plan permits the grant of both incentive stock options and
non-incentive stock options. Incentive stock options may by granted only to
those employees who are regarded by the Committee as "key" employees. With
respect to incentive stock options, the aggregate fair market value (determined
at the time the option is granted) of the stock with respect to which an
incentive stock option first becomes exercisable may not exceed $100,000 per
calendar year. Further, no incentive stock option shall be granted to an
individual if, at the time the option is granted, such individual owns stock
possessing more than 10 percent of the total combined voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company or subsidiary corporation, within the meaning of
Section 422A(b)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), unless (i)
at the time such option is granted the option price is at least 110 percent of
the fair market value of the stock subject to the option and (ii) such option by
its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date of
grant.
All the outstanding options granted pursuant to the 1988 Stock Option Plan
are exercisable at a price of not less than 100 percent of the fair market value
on their respective dates of grant.
NON-DISCRETIONARY STOCK OPTION PLAN. The Board of Directors adopted a
Non-Discretionary Stock Option Plan pursuant to which the Company was
authorized to grant options to purchase up to an aggregate of 250,000 shares
of the Company's common stock. The Non-Discretionary Stock Option Plan became
effective as of September 12, 1991 and is intended to reward non-employee
directors for their participation and contributions to the Company. The
Non-Discretionary Stock Option Plan terminated in September 1997. Outstanding
options will remain exercisable in accordance with the terms of the individual
option agreements.
The Non-Discretionary Stock Option Plan provided that, as of the
effective date, options to purchase 20,000 were granted shares to each
non-employee director of the Company. Thereafter, at such time as a person
becomes a non-employee director of the Company, the Company will grant that
person options to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Dr.
Altshuler and Mr. Yager were each granted options to acquire 20,000 shares at
an exercise price of $.36 per share, the fair market value of the Company's
common stock on the date of grant. However, upon his acceptance of his
appointment as a director on October 23, 1993, Mr. Menefee and the Company
agreed that he would be granted options to acquire 10,000 shares at an
exercise price of $.28 per share. In addition, effective September 1 of each
year, commencing 1992 and continuing through 1996; options to purchase an
additional 10,000 shares have been granted options to acquire 10,000 shares
on each September 1 on which he served as a director commencing on September
1, 1992 at an exercise price equal to fair market value of the Company's
common stock on the dates the options were granted.
Options granted pursuant to the Non-Discretionary Plan are exercisable in
full effective as of the date of grant and expire three years from the date of
grant,
<PAGE>
except that an option will expire, if not exercised, 90 days after the
optionee ceases to be a director of the Company.
Item 11. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT.
The following table sets forth ownership of the presently issued and

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUSINESS The Company was incorporated on June 23, 1980 under the laws
of the State of Colorado. On September 27, 1991, the
Company acquired Corporate Centre, a three story office
building located in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Corporate
Centre was sold during the year ended June 30, 1997. The
Company has purchased two undeveloped lots in the Cordillera
Valley Club, located near Vail, Colorado and has contributed
the properties to two separate limited liability companies
(LLC's). With their partner in the LLC's, the Company has
built a separate luxury residence on each parcel for resale.
The Company also explores other business acquisitions,
opportunities and investments.
CONCENTRATIONS OF The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to
CREDIT RISK concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash
balances in excess of the insurance provided by governmental
insurance authorities. The Company has not experienced any
losses on such accounts.
USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
INVESTMENT Investment securities classified as available for sale are
SECURITIES those securities that the Company does not have the positive
intent to hold to maturity or does not intend to trade
actively. These securities are reported at fair value with
unrealized gains and losses reported as a net amount (net of
applicable income taxes) as a separate component of
stockholders' equity.
FAIR VALUE OF Unless otherwise specified, the Company believes the
FINANCIAL carrying value of financial instruments approximates their
INSTRUMENTS fair value.
REVENUE Interest and dividend income is recorded on the accrual
RECOGNITION basis. Gain (loss) on sales of securities is recognized at
time of sale.
INVESTMENT IN Investment in partnership are accounted for by the cost
PARTNERSHIP method.
INVESTMENT IN LLC Investments in LLCs are accounted for under the equity
method.
LONG-LIVED ASSETS Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the expected
undiscounted future cash flow from the use of the assets
and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying
amount of the assets, an impairment loss is recognized
and measured using the asset's fair value.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INCOME TAXES The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109 - Accounting for Income Taxes.
Under SFAS No. 109, the Company's policy is to provide
deferred income taxes related to items that result in
differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of
assets and liabilities.
NET INCOME During fiscal 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128, which
PER SHARE provides for the calculation of "Basic" and "Diluted"
earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no
dilution and is computed by dividing income (loss) available
to common shareholders by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings
per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that
could share in the earnings of an entity, similar to fully
diluted earnings per share. In loss periods, dilutive
common equivalent shares are excluded as the effect would be
anti-dilutive. Basic and diluted earnings are the same for
all periods presented.
Options to purchase 160,000 shares of common stock were not
included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as
their effect was anti-dilutive for the year ended June 30,
1998.
CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all highly liquid investments
purchased with an original maturity of three months or less
to be cash equivalents.
STOCK OPTION PLANS The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," (APB Opinion 25)
and related Interpretations in accounting for all stock
option plans. Under APB Opinion 25, no compensation cost
has been recognized for stock options granted as the option
price equals or exceeds the market price of the underlying
common stock on the date of grant.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, "(SFAS No. 123)
requires the Company to provide pro forma information
regarding net income as if compensation cost for the
Company's stock option plans had been determined in
accordance with the fair value based method prescribed in
SFAS.

NEW ACCOUNTING In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
PRONOUNCEMENTS issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income (SFAS 130), which establishes
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income,
its components and accumulated balances.
Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in
equity except those resulting from investments by owners and
distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, SFAS 130
requires that all items that are required to be recognized
under current accounting standards as components of
comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement
that is displayed with the same prominence as other
financial statements.
Also, in June 1997, FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information"
which supersedes SFAS No.14, "Financial Reporting for
Segments of a Business Enterprise." SFAS No. 131
establishes standards for the way that public companies
report information about operating segments in annual
financial statements and requires reporting of selected
information about operating segments in interim financial
statements issued to the public. It also establishes
standards for disclosures regarding products and services,
geographic areas and major customers. SFAS No. 131 defines
operating segments as components of a company about which
separate financial information is available that is
evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in
deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing
performance.
SFAS 130 and 131 are effective for financial statements for
periods beginning after December 15, 1997 and requires
comparative information for earlier years to be restated.
Because of the recent issuance of the standard, management
has been unable to fully evaluate the impact, if any, the
standard may have on future financial statement disclosures.
Results of operations and financial position, however, will
be unaffected by implementation of this standard.
In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132, "Employers'
Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement
Benefits" which standardizes the disclosure requirements for
pensions and other postretirement benefits and requires
additional information on changes in the benefit obligations
and fair values of plan assets that will facilitate
financial analysis. SFAS No. 132 is effective for years
beginning after December 15, 1997, and requires comparative
information for earlier years to be restated,

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
unless such information is not readily available.
Management believes the adoption of this statement will have
no material impact on the Company's financial statements.
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" which
requires companies to record derivatives on the balance
sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair market
value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values
of those derivatives would be accounted for depending on the
use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge
accounting. The key criterion for hedge accounting is that
the hedging relationship must be highly effective in
achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows.
SFAS No. 133 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 1999. Management believes the adoption of this
statement will have no material impact on the Company's
financial statements.
RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain items included in the prior years' financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to current year
presentation.
