                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
     (Information for the Period Subsequent to June 30, 1996 is Unaudited)


1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICES:
     -----------------------------------------
     General - 
     -------
     SISCOM, Inc., f/k/a Satellite Information Systems Company  (SISCOM) was
     incorporated in the State of Colorado on September 29, 1982. SISCOM
     currently operates as a software development company that provides
     computer based products and services to the electronic media and sports
     industry.  On February 8, 1995, in the State of Colorado, Satellite
     Information Systems Company formed a new subsidiary, without predecessor
     operations, called Event Marketing Systems International, Inc. ("EMSI,
     Inc."). SISCOM holds 80% of the outstanding stock of this venture, with
     four other individuals including, Michael J. Ellis, President of SISCOM,
     holding 5% each.  EMSI, Inc. markets and supports software solutions to
     the sports industry.  The consolidated financial statements include the
     accounts of SISCOM and its 80% owned subsidiary EMSI, Inc.  All
     significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
     consolidation.

     Unaudited Information - 
     ---------------------
     The balance sheet as of March 31, 1997 and the statements of operations
     for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 were
     taken from the Company's books and records without audit. However, in the
     opinion of management, such information includes all adjustments
     (consisting primarily of normal accruals) which are necessary to properly
     reflect the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 1997 and the
     results of operations for the three months and nine months ended March 31,
     1997 and 1996.  The results of operations for the period ended March 31,
     1997 will not necessarily be indicative of the operating results for the
     full year.

     Unearned Revenue -  
     ----------------
     Unearned revenue primarily consists of the deferred balance of payments
     received on maintenance contracts. These amounts are amortized into 
     revenue on a monthly basis over the life of the contract.

     Reclassification -  
     ----------------
     Certain reclassifications have been made to 1996 balances to conform to
     1997 presentations.  Such reclassifications had no effect on net income or
     loss.

     Incorporation by Reference - 
     --------------------------
     The Company has elected to incorporate by reference the financial
     statement disclosures as included in its previously filed Form10-KSB. 
     Reference should be made in reviewing this 10-QSB to the disclosures
     contained in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended June 30,
     1996.

     Certain disclosures related to the current period financial information
     are included below.

2.   STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:
     --------------------
     Preferred Stock - 
     ---------------
     On September 12, 1996 the Company finalized an agreement to sell 4,000,000
     shares of newly issued convertible preferred stock to an investor for
     $1,000,000.  These shares carry a 7% non-cumulative dividend and are
     convertible into the Company's common stock on a one-for-one basis
     commencing the earlier of one year from the date of issuance or the
     effective date of a registration statement registering for sale of the
     shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A preferred
     and ending three years from the date of issuance.  No dividends will be
     paid on the existing common stock, no distributions will be made on the
     common stock, and no shares of common stock will be redeemed, retired, or
     otherwise acquired for valuable consideration until all declared dividends
     on the Series A have been paid or the Company has set aside a sufficient
     amount to pay them. The holders of the Series A will have voting rights
     that are identical to the voting rights of holders of common stock.  As
     part of the sale of these shares, the purchaser acquired the right to
     appoint two representatives on the Company's Board of Directors.

     Stockholder's Equity -
     --------------------
     On January 13, 1997, at the annual meeting of shareholder's, an amendment
     to the Company's articles of incorporation was approved and adopted to
     formally change the Company's name to SISCOM, Inc.  Additionally, the
     purchaser of the Preferred Series A Stock had its two nominees approved
     and elected to the Company's Board of Directors.

3.   OTHER INCOME:
     ------------
     At June 30, 1996 the company had included in accounts payable a liability
     to a vendor which the Company was obligated to pay pursuant to an order of
     judgment by default entered into in 1993.  During the quarter the company
     successfully negotiated a settlement on the remaining balance for a lump
     sum payment resulting in $26,700 of other income.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          ---------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THE THREE
MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 (UNAUDITED)


During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, SISCOM generated revenue of $235,000
with a resulting net loss of $(64,600) as compared to revenue of  $167,800 and
net loss of $(92,400) during the same quarter of fiscal 1996.


Revenue

</TABLE>

Product sales include the sale of proprietary software and hardware to the
broadcast, cable and sports industries.  The Company's principal product
offerings include NewsPro(-Registered Mark-), an electronic newsroom management
system and CDSS, a statistical analysis system for professional basketball.  In
addition to CDSS, Video Logging(-TM-) ("Logging(-TM-)") and Video Retrieval,
NonLinear Video Editing, and MPEG Video are available for the professional
sports industry.

Software revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 increased $73,600 over
the quarter ended March 31, 1996.  During the current quarter there have been
continued sales of Logging(-TM-) and Retrieval software to the NBA.  The
current quarter software sales have more than compensated for the loss of sales
resulting from the discontinuation of Stadium Click Effects sales; which
occured in the third quarter of fiscal 1996. 

SISCOM's hardware sales decreased from $17,000 in the quarter ended March 31,
1996 to $300 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997.  The quarter ended March 31,
1996 included some hardware revenue earned from sales of Stadium Click Effects
products through its subsidiary EMSI, which is non-existent in the current
quarter.  The company has curtailed sales along this line since last spring
when its re-sale agreement for Stadium Click Effects between EMSI and a third
party software developer was terminated.  During the current quarter sales were
primarily related to software sales and software services only.  

The Company continues to focus on providing quality software and services. 
Gross margin on hardware has traditionally been significantly less than the
gross margin on software and services.  Management believes that future
hardware provider relationships and sales will offer the Company both access to
leading technology and leverage to expand the sale of the Company's software
products and services.

Management believes that SISCOM has consciously served a niche market of
specialized customers. Historically, the Company has had to rely on revenues
from a few substantial installations to large customers such as the NBA.  This
reliance has resulted from the Company's limited working capital rather than
any limitations in the scope of the potential markets and customers for the
Company's products.  As the Company continues to identify, develop and market
new solutions for existing and new opportunities, management believes that the
Company's dependence on revenues from a few large customers will continue will
continue to decrease.

Maintenance revenue has increased approximately 10% from $99,200 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996 to $109,500 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997,
which increases are due, primarily, to a few additions of sports related
software support and some small inflationary increases.  Nonetheless, NewsPro(-
Registered Mark-) maintenance revenue still remains the primary component of
software services. 

Costs and Expenses

The following table outlines the cost of sales components for the three (3)
months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.

                              ========    ===          ========    ===
</TABLE>

Cost of sales and services includes components for hardware sales, direct labor
and materials used in the manufacture of software, royalties due to the
developer of third party software products under a distributor agreement, and
other expenses incurred in the generation of revenue. Additionally, the Company
has reclassified, as cost of sales, the amortization expense of capitalized
software creation costs.  This reclassification is consistent with the period
reported in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1996.

For the three months ended March 31, 1997, cost of sales and services was 38%
of total revenue compared with 71% for the same period in 1996.  Gross margins
were 62% for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 and  29% for the same quarter of
the prior fiscal year.

The cost of direct labor and materials includes employee hours spent contract
programming and installing, training, and supporting the Company's products as
well as any materials and supplies directly used in the process.  The total
cost of direct labor decreased approximately $7,900 between the quarter ended
March 31, 1996 and March 31, 1997.  The decrease in direct labor between the
quarters was primarily due to the prior year loss of one employee dedicated to
programming and one employee dedicated to NewsPro(-Registered Mark-) software
support.  However, both employees were replaced approximately mid-way through
the current quarter.

The software royalties component of cost of sales items from that certain
distributor agreement executed in February, 1995, between a third party
developer and EMSI, Inc., which agreement relates to the sale of Stadium Click
Effects software.  Under the terms of this agreement EMSI, Inc., acting as the
exclusive authorized distributor of Stadium Click Effects, sublicenses the
product directly to the customer and pays the developer between 45% and 75% of
the net licensing fee depending on the specifics of each customer transaction. 
Therefore, as previously noted, the termination of this third party agreement
resulted in a lack of expenditures for software royalties in the third quarter
of the current fiscal year, as compared with $23,700 for the same quarter of
the previous year.

Other expense consists primarily of amortization of capitalized software costs. 
The treatment of this expense as a cost of sales represents a reclassification
of the 1996 balances to conform to the 1997 presentation.  The 1997
presentation is consistent with the treatment of these costs in the Company's
1996 fiscal year end audit.  As the Company continues to emphasize software
development management expects a corresponding increase in capitalized software
creation costs and the related amortization of those costs. 

Operating general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March
31, 1997 increased by $92,500 from $104,500 to $196,800.  This increase
experienced by the Company was primarily the result of newly hired personnel
and the related taxes and benefits.  These individuals were hired to support
increased operations as part of the exploration of a proposed new business
relationship.  Investigation of this proposed opportunity required increased
technical knowledge and support.  However, prior to the end of the third
quarter, the Company determined that the proposed opportunity did not sit with
the Company's existing business plan and therefore elected not to move forward. 
The company has subsequently downsized personnel.

There was an increase in additions to capitalized software costs of $22,800,
from $59,800 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 to $82,600 for the same
quarter in 1997.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THE NINE
MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996.(UNAUDITED)

During the nine months ended March 31, 1997, SISCOM generated revenue of
$750,600 with a resulting net loss of $(9,600) as compared to revenue of 
$817,300 and a net operating loss of ($121,400) for the same period of fiscal
1996.

</TABLE>

For the nine months ended March 31, 1997 software revenue increased $14,800
over the nine months ended March 31, 1996.  This slight increase in software
revenue is primarily due to continued sales to the sports industry of CDSS
software, and Logging(-TM-) and Retrieval software to the NBA.  Current
software sales have now offset the previous losses noted from the termination
of the Stadium Click Effects agreements in February, 1996.

SISCOM's hardware sales decreased $93,500 from $206,600, for the nine (9)
months ended March 31, 1996, to $113,100 for the nine months ended March 31,
1997.  However, it should be noted that hardware sales for the nine months
ended March 31, 1996 included hardware revenue amounts earned from sales of
Stadium Click Effects products through the Company's subsidiary EMSI.  As
noted, the Company has curtailed sales along this line as a result of the
termination of the re-sale agreement for Stadium Click Effects between EMSI and
a third party software developer.  In addition, there were relatively no
hardware sales during the third quarter of the current fiscal year.


COSTS AND EXPENSES

The following table outlines the cost of sales components for the nine months
ended March 31, 1997 and March 31,  1996.

</TABLE>

For the nine (9) months ended March 31, 1997, cost of sales and services was
45% of total revenue compared with 65% for the same period in 1996. 
Accordingly, gross margins were 55% for the nine months ended March 31, 1997
and 35% for the same nine month period of the prior fiscal year.  The gross
margin increase for the current year is primarily the result of a lack of
royalty expense in the current year, and lack of hardware cost of sales in the
third quarter.

The cost of direct labor and materials includes employee hours spent contract
programming and installing, training, and supporting the Company's products as
well as any materials and supplies directly used in the process.  The total
cost of direct labor decreased $20,700 or approximately 16% between the nine
(9) months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.  The decrease primarily results from
the loss of two employees, one dedicated to programming and one to NewsPro(-
Registered Mark-) support.  As previously noted, both employees were replaced
mid-way through the current quarter.

The software royalties component of cost of sales relates to the February 1995
distributor agreement between a third party developer and EMSI, Inc., which
agreement relates to the sale of Stadium Click Effects software.  Under the
terms of this agreement EMSI, Inc., acting as the exclusive authorized
distributor of Stadium Click Effects, sublicenses the product directly to the
customer and pays the developer between 45% and 75% of the net licensing fee
depending on the specifics of each customer transaction.  As previously noted,
the termination of this third party agreement has resulted in the lack of
expenditure for software royalties in the current fiscal year as compared to
$127,500 for the nine month period of the previous year.

Other expense consists primarily of amortization of capitalized software costs. 
The treatment of this expense as a cost of sales represents a reclassification
of the 1996 balances to conform to the 1997 presentation.  The 1997
presentation is consistent with the treatment of these costs in the Company's
1996 fiscal year end audit. 

Operating general and administrative expenses were up $67,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 over the same period in the prior year.  As
discussed above, this increase was primarily the result of increased personnel
costs relating to the investigation of a new business opportunity which
incurred and were terminated in the third quarter.

Depreciation expense was $45,300 and $31,400 for the nine months ended March
31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  This increase between the periods is
attributable to sizeable additions in the first and second quarters of the
current fiscal year to property and equipment.

There was a slight decrease in capitalizable costs of approximately $2,100
between the nine months ended March 31, 1996 and March 31, 1997.   The net
decrease of capitalized assets over the quarters was the result of the loss of
a full time programmer dedicated to software development in the prior year. 
However, as previously mentioned, this programmer was replaced half way through
the current quarter.  Therefore, the decrease noted is minimal, and decreases
in capitalized software costs are not likely to continue beyond the current
quarter.  Management places continued emphasis on software development as it
responds to the ongoing requests of existing and new customers across markets. 
The Company amortizes software development costs straight line over three (3)
years.



Liquidity and Capital Resources - March 31, 1997 (unaudited) Compared to June
30, 1996

SISCOM's current working capital surplus, which represents current assets minus
current liabilities, increased during the nine months ended March 31, 1997 to
$422,700 from a deficit at year end of $(400,200).  The increase is primarily
the result of closing on the sale of 4,000,000 shares of preferred stock for
$1,000,000.  (see financial note 2)  Trade receivables also increased
approximately $170,000 from the end of the prior fiscal year.  Additionally,
the company generated net income of $55,000 during the first two quarters of
fiscal 1997.

During the nine months ended March 31, 1997 the Company used approximately
$400,000 in operating activities as compared with $146,000 being provided by
operating activities for the same period in the prior year. Uses of cash flows
include payment of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and increases in
both inventory and accounts receivable.  The Company's primary uses of cash
were in investing activities. Specifically, capital expenditures and
capitalization of software development costs totaled $345,100 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to $200,300 in the prior year.

Management believes that inflation has not had a material impact on its results
of operations.
