                                    (Unaudited)


1. General

     The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been 
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for 
interim financial information and with the instruction to Form 10-QSB and 
Item 310 of Regulation S-B.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the 
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting 
principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, 
the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjust
f normal recurring accruals) necessary to make such financial statements not 
misleading.  Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, are 
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected either for any 
other quarter in the year ending December 31, 1998 or for the entire year 
ending December 31, 1998.  For further information, refer to the consolidated 
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual 
Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,1997.

2. Operations

     The Company currently has no operating business.  Management is pursuing
various strategic alternatives which include the possible use of the 
Company's remaining net assets to acquire, merge, consolidate or otherwise 
combine with an operating business or businesses; however, there is no 
assurance that any such alternatives will occur.

3. Lease Commitments

     The Company has entered into a three-year operating lease for office 
space in New York, NY commencing April 1, 1998.  The Company has sublet a 
portion of its office space to affiliated companies.  Future minimum lease 
payments under this lease are as follows:

                              Deduct            Net

            NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)


4. Per Share Results 

     The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 
128, "Earnings Per Share" (SFAS No. 128), which is effective for annual and 
interim financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 
1997.  SFAS No. 128 was issued to simplify the standards for calculating 
earnings per share (EPS) previously in APB No. 15, "Earnings Per Share."  
SFAS No. 128 replaces the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of 
basic EPS.  The new rules also require dual presentation of basic and diluted 
EPS with a presentation of primary  EPS with a presentation of basic and diluted
EPS on the face of the statement of operation.

     Net income per share was calculated using the weighted average number of
 common shares outstanding.  The effect of all common stock equivalents is 
not included in the per share computation for the quarters ended June 30, 
1998 and 1997, as such items are anti-dilutive in these quarters; 
accordingly, basic and diluted income per share are the same for the quarters
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.

5. Comprehensive Income

     Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Accounting 
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (SFAS 130).  SFAS 130 
established new rules for the reporting of comprehensive income and its 
components; however, the adoption of SFAS 130 had no impact on the Company's 
net income or shareholders' equity.  SFAS 130 requires unrealized gains or 
losses on the Company's available-for-sale equity investments to be included 
in other comprehensive income.  There was no impact on prior period financial
statements from the adoption of SFAS 130, as the Company had no unrealized 
gain or loss on equity securities during the six months ended June 30, 1997.

     For the three and six months ended June, 1998, the Company's 
comprehensive income (loss) was $(41,000) and $5,000, respectively.  
The comprehensive income differs from the net income in the first six months 
of 1998 due to the inclusion of the Company's unrealized loss on equity 
securities in its comprehensive income.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS


     The Company currently has no operating business.  The Board of Directors 
is pursuing various strategic alternatives which include the possible use of 
the Company's net assets to acquire, merge, consolidate or otherwise combine 
with an operating business or businesses.

REVENUES AND EXPENSES

     The Company had no revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1998.  
Expenses for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 aggregated $158,000, 
consisting of general and administrative costs.  Legal fees related to 
potential investment transactions were the major cause of increased G & A for 
the current time period. General and administrative expenses for the six 
month period ended June 30, 1997 totaled $135,000.

 NET INTEREST INCOME AND OTHER INCOME

     During the first half of 1998, the Company recognized $167,000 of net 
interest income and other income compared with $148,000 in the comparable 
period of 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $5,072,000 at June 30, 
1998 and $5,433,000 at December 31, 1997.  Decreases in liabilities and  
increase in  assets combined to account for the decrease in cash.   At 
June 30, 1998, the Company's working capital balance was $5,274,000.

     While the company seeks an acquisition or other business combination, 
management believes its cash position is sufficient to cover administrative 
expenses and current obligations for the foreseeable future.
