                DISCUS ACQUISITION CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
            (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DISCUS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES)
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)


1.   Consolidated Financial Statements:

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Discus Acquisition
Corporation and Subsidiaries (formerly Discus Corporation and Subsidiaries) as
of June 25, 1995, and for the quarters and six months ended June 25, 1995, and
June 26, 1994, reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which
include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state the results
of operations for interim periods. The results of operations for any interim
period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year, and due
to the disposal of all restaurant operations, the Company will no longer report
any significant operating activities until such time as a new business is
acquired. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
contained in the Company's December 25, 1994, Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for
the year ended December 25, 1994.

2.   Net Loss Per Share:

Net loss per share has been computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average of common stock shares outstanding during each period. Common stock
equivalent shares, which relate to stock options outstanding are not included in
the weighted average because their effect is antidilutive in 1995 and 1994.

3.   Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The Company considers deposits in banks, certificates of deposits and other
short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less when
purchased to be cash equivalents.

4.   Discontinued Operations, Disposal of All Restaurant Operations:

On April 15, 1994, the Company signed an Asset Purchase Agreement with
Fuddruckers, Inc., its franchisor, that provided for the sale of substantially
all of the business and restaurant operating assets of seven of the Company's
ten Fuddruckers restaurants and its interest in all real estate leases and
certain other contracts, permits and licenses which are transferable. The
Agreement granted Fuddruckers, Inc. an option to purchase two additional
Fuddruckers restaurants from the Company.

The sale was approved by the Company's shareholders on June 7, 1994. On June 7,
1994, the sale of the restaurants (including the two option restaurants) was
completed. The sale price aggregated $5,869,000. The Company assigned, and
Fuddruckers assumed from the date of closing of the transaction, all real estate
leases associated with the nine restaurants. The Company satisfied all other
obligations, including royalties due to Fuddruckers, Inc. related to the nine
restaurants upon closing of the transaction.

On the above date the Company's shareholders approved a change in the Company's
name from Discus Corporation to Discus Acquisition Corporation.

Also, in June 1994, the Company closed its remaining Fuddruckers restaurant. The
Company plans to dispose of its interest in the restaurant facility which is
leased by a subsidiary (guaranteed by Discus Acquisition Corporation through
July, 1995) for $60,000 per year under a ten year lease that expires in 2003.
The Company has reduced the carrying value of the equipment in the restaurant to
estimated net realizable value and recorded estimated losses (including one year
of property lease commitments) through the anticipated date of disposition of
the restaurant property.

Also, in June 1994, the Company sold idle equipment from two restaurants closed
in fiscal year 1993 for $10,000. The Company plans to sell its remaining
restaurant land, building, and equipment which is rented to a limited
partnership. The property is encumbered by a mortgage of $404,005 and has a net
book value of $520,435 at June 25, 1995. The Company anticipates selling the
property for an amount greater than the net book value and mortgage obligation.

The following schedule provides revenues and expenses for the discontinued
operations for the three and six month periods ended June 26, 1994.

Pursuant to action taken by the Board of Directors, upon closing of the
transaction with Fuddruckers, Inc., all stock options under the Company's
Employee Stock Option Plan and Non-Qualified Stock Options became immediately
vested and exercisable and a significant number of new options will become
exercisable. (See Note 5 also.)

5.   The Spell Group Agreement:

Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of March 3, 1994, the Company
created a strategic relationship with the Spell Group to implement a plan
adopted by its Board of Directors to divest the Company of a majority of its
Fuddruckers restaurants (See Note 4) and thereafter to pursue an acquisition
strategy whereby the Company, using funds realized from the disposal of its
restaurants, together with such other financing as may be available, would
acquire one or more existing business operations. The Spell Group Agreement was
approved by the Company's shareholders on June 7, 1994. Pursuant to the terms of
the Spell Group Agreement, the Spell Group purchased from the Company 100,000
shares of the Common Stock of the Company at $.75 per share.

The Company granted to members of the Spell Group five year options to purchase

                DISCUS ACQUISITION CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
            (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DISCUS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES)
               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


     As described in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
included in this Report on Form 10-QSB, the Company disposed of all its
restaurant operations during June of 1994. The Company plans to sell its
remaining restaurant property which is rented to a limited partnership. As a
result, the Company will no longer report any significant operating activities
until such time as a business is acquired.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CONTINUING OPERATIONS

     During the second quarter of 1995, the Company earned $33,934 in interest
income on invested funds. The Company incurred $89,243 in corporate charges.
During the six months ended June 25, 1995, the Company earned $65,128 in
interest income on invested funds. The Company incurred $179,159 in corporate
charges, of which approximately $62,000 relates to direct costs incurred in the
evaluation of potential business acquisitions.

     The Company continues to seek and evaluate business acquisition candidates
and incurs costs associated with such activity, including but not limited to
approximately $8,000 a month for an office, related administrative and executive
support. Acquisition evaluation costs are also incurred on an ongoing basis,
such as travel and professional support. Such future costs are not estimable at
this time as they vary with activity levels.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS, DISPOSAL OF ALL RESTAURANT OPERATIONS

     The Company operated ten Fuddruckers restaurants during part of fiscal year
1994. The Company sold nine of its restaurants and closed its remaining
restaurant in June 1994. Restaurant sales for the second quarter of 1994 were
$2,379,611. Cost of sales were $704,123 and restaurant operating costs were
$1,627,416 resulting in a net loss of $48,688 for the second quarter of 1994.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's cash and cash equivalents decreased to $2,252,796 at June 25,
1995 from $2,608,299 at December 25, 1994. The decrease primarily resulted from
payment of expenses related to discontinued operations that were accrued at
December 25, 1994, and of corporate expenses in excess of interest income.

     The Company anticipates the completion of the liquidation of residual
restaurant assets in the third quarter of 1995 with the sale of the remaining
restaurant property, and the settlement of a remaining lease obligation.

     Using funds realized from the disposal of its restaurant properties,
together with such other financing as may be required, the Company plans to
acquire one or more existing business operations.

     Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Spell Group Agreement") dated
as of March 3, 1994, the Company created a strategic relationship with the Spell
Group to implement a plan adopted by its Board of Directors to divest the
Company of a majority of its Fuddruckers restaurants and thereafter pursue an
acquisition strategy whereby the Company, using funds realized from the
disposition of its restaurants, together with such other financing as may be
available, would acquire one or more existing business operations. The Spell
Group Agreement was approved by the Company's shareholders on June 7, 1994.
Pursuant to the terms of the Spell Group Agreement, the Spell Group purchased
100,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at $.75 per share.

     The Company granted to members of the Spell Group five year options to
purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at $.75
per share and five year options to purchase an aggregate of 300,000 shares at
$1.35 per share. The options are exercisable beginning on December 1, 1996, with
25 percent of such options becoming exercisable on both December 1, 1996, and
1997, and the remainder becoming exercisable on December 1, 1998. All of the
options shall become exercisable immediately upon the occurrence of an exchange
of securities, sale, merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving a
reorganization of, or acquisition by, the Company.
