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


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Quarter ended March 31, 1996 compared to Quarter ended March 31, 1995

The Company's net income in the first quarter of 1996 was $152,000 or $.04 
per share compared to $87,000 or $.02 per share.  The increase was due to 
higher earned income on leases and notes offset by an increase in the 
provision for losses, higher selling, general and administrative expenses and 
higher interest costs.

Earned income on leases and notes for the first quarter of 1996 was 
$3,856,000 compared to $2,726,000 for the first quarter of 1995.  This 
increase was primarily due to an increase in the net investment in leases and 
notes of 34% from the first quarter of 1995 to the comparable 1996 period.  
The Company's volume of new financings for the first quarter of 1996 was 
$20,300,000 compared to $14,600,000 in 1995.

The provision for losses in the first quarter of 1996 was $349,000 compared 
to $277,000 in 1995.  This increase was due to the higher volume of new 
financings.

Selling, general and administrative costs for the quarter were $1,647,000 in 
1996 compared to $1,480,000 in 1995.  This 11% increase reflects increased 
staffing and support levels required by the higher volume of new financing 
activity.

Interest expense increased 94% from $826,000 in 1995 to $1,609,000 in 1996.  
The increase results from an increase of 54% in the level of debt from 1995 
to 1996 and higher interest costs in 1996.

The Company's income before income taxes in the first quarter of 1996 was 
$252,000 compared to $143,000 in 1995, and its effective tax rate remained 
approximately the same.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 1996, the Company had $6,984,000 in cash, cash equivalents and 
restricted cash as compared to $6,471,000 at December 31, 1995.  As described 
in Note 4 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in this 
report on  Form 10-Q, $5,361,000 of such cash was restricted pursuant to 
financing agreements as of March 31, 1996.  Cash provided by operating 
activities was $463,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to 
cash provided by operating activities of $151,000 in the same period of 1995. 
Cash used in investing activities was $10,366,000 for the three months ended 
March 31, 1996, compared to cash used in investing activities of $5,357,000 
for the first quarter of 1995.

In March 1996, the Company entered into a sale agreement with Springfield 
Institution for Savings ("SIS") under which it transferred $417,000 in assets 
to SIS subject to certain recourse covenants and servicing of these assets by 
the Company.  A net gain of

approximately $80,000 was recognized in connection with this transaction and 
is included in earned income from leases and notes for the period.

At March 31, 1996, the Company's Revolving Loan Agreement provided for loans 
of up to $60,000,000 with $52,500,000 outstanding, and $7,500,000 available 
for borrowing.  The Company continues to utilize HPSC Bravo Funding Corp. 
("Bravo") and at March 31, 1996 had $27,507,000 of loans outstanding under 
this $50,000,000 revolving credit facility.

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 from bank and non-bank sources.  The Company 
expects that it will be able to obtain additional capital at competitive 
rates, but there can be no assurance it will be able to do so.
