                   ------------------------------------------

1. The information presented for the interim periods is unaudited, but includes
all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the
opinion of the Company, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The
results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be
expected for the full fiscal year. Certain 1995 account balances have been
reclassed to conform with 1996 presentation.

2. Interest expense is net of interest income of $56,000 and $84,000 for the
three months, and $175,000 and $319,000 for the nine months, ended September
30, 1996 and September 30, 1995, respectively.

3. For the three months ended September 30, 1996, and September 30, 1995, the
earnings per share computation assumes the exercise of stock options under the
modified treasury stock method and includes only those shares allocated to
participant accounts in the Company's Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP").
The ESOP holds 210,348 shares that have not yet been funded or allocated to
specific participant accounts. These unallocated shares have not been included
in earnings per share calculations. There has been no allocation of shares from
the Supplemental ESOP, which holds 350,000 shares.

4. On September 30, 1996, the Company had $6,751,000 in restricted cash of which
$4,059,000 was reserved for debt service and $2,692,000 was reserved for credit
enhancement pursuant to the terms of agreements entered into by the Company on
December 27, 1993, with respect to a $70,000,000 securitization transaction and
on January 31, 1995 with the HPSC Bravo Funding Corp. ("Bravo") revolving credit
facility.

5. In connection with the Bravo revolving credit facility, the Company had
$45,726,000 of its Senior Notes subject to interest rate swap agreements. Under
the structure of the facility, Bravo incurs interest at variable rates in the
commercial paper market and enters into interest rate swap agreements to assure
fixed rate funding. At September 30, 1996, Bravo had eleven separate swap
contracts with the Bank of Boston with a total notional value of $47,611,000.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 Compared to Quarter and Nine
Months Ended September 30, 1995

The Company's net income for the third quarter of 1996 was $248,000 or $.06 per
share compared to $89,000 or $.02 per share for 1995. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, net income was $604,000 or $.15 per share compared to
$312,000 or $.08 per share in 1995. The increases in both the quarter and nine
month periods of 1996 over 1995 were due to higher earned income from leases and
notes offset by increases in the provision for losses, higher selling, general
and administrative expenses and higher interest costs.

Earned income on leases and notes for the third quarter of 1996 was $5,044,000,
compared to $3,417,000 in 1995. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996,
earned income was $13,447,000 compared to $9,564,000 in 1995. The increases in
both the quarter and nine month periods were due primarily to the increases in
the net investment of leases and notes. The Company's volume of new financings
for the third quarter of 1996 was $22,389,000 compared to $17,843,000 in 1995.
For the nine month period new financings were $66,026,000 in 1996 compared to
$46,030,000 in 1995.

The provision for losses was $424,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1996,
compared to $336,000 for the comparable period in 1995. For the nine month
period in 1996, the provision for losses was $1,224,000 compared to $877,000 in
1995. These increases are the result of higher levels of new financings in 1996.

Selling, general and administrative costs for the third quarter of 1996 were
$2,066,000 as compared to $1,537,000 in 1995, an increase of 34%. For the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, selling, general and administrative expenses
were $5,580,000 as compared to $4,537,000 in 1995. These increases reflect the
increased staffing, systems and support costs required by the higher volumes of
financing activity.

Interest expense for the third quarter of 1996 was $2,146,000 as compared to
$1,397,000 in 1995, an increase of 54%. For the nine months ended September 30,
1996, interest expense was $5,649,000 compared to $3,636,000 in 1995, an
increase of 55%. These increases were primarily due to a 45% increase in debt
levels from 1995 to 1996.

The Company's income before income taxes in the third quarter of 1996 was
$408,000, compared to $147,000 in 1995. For the nine months ended September 30,
1996, income before income taxes was $994,000 compared to $514,000 in 1995. The
effective tax rate remained approximately the same for all periods.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At September 30, 1996, the Company had $7,466,000 in cash, cash equivalents and

Note 4 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in this
report on Form 10-Q, $6,751,000 of such cash was restricted pursuant to
financing agreements as of September 30, 1996. Cash provided by operating
activities was $2,596,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared
to cash provided by operating activities of $2,489,000 in the same period of
1995. Cash used in investing activities was $26,649,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 compared to cash used in investing activities of
$20,215,000 in the same period for 1995.

Through September 30, 1996, the Company, entered into several sale agreements
under which it transferred a total of $12,630,000 in assets to two savings banks
subject to certain recourse covenants and servicing of these assets by the 
Company. A net gain of approximately $885,000 was recognized in connection with
these transactions and is included in earned income from leases and notes for 
the nine month period.

At September 30, 1996 the Company's Revolving Loan Agreement provided for loans
of up to $75,000,000, with $56,000,000 outstanding, and $19,000,000 available
for borrowing, subject to certain borrowing base calculations. The Company
continues to utilize HPSC Bravo Funding Corp. ("Bravo") and at September 30,
1996 had $45,726,000 of loans outstanding under this $50,000,000 revolving
credit facility. Effective November 5, 1996, this facility was increased to
$100,000,000 and amended to provide that up to $30,000,000 of such facility may
be used for sales of receivables from Bravo.

Management believes that the Company's liquidity is adequate to meet current
obligations and projected levels of financings and operations. In order to
finance adequately its anticipated growth, the Company will continue to seek to
raise additional capital at competitive rates, but there can be no assurance it
will be able to do so.
