NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
On September 24, 1997, PMC International, Inc. ("PMCI" or the
"Company") completed its acquisition (the "Acquisition") of ADAM
Investment Services, Inc. ("ADAM"), a Delaware corporation, and its
wholly owned subsidiary, Optima Funds, Inc., ("Optima") a Georgia
corporation, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated July 25, 1997
("the Agreement") among the Company, ADAM and ADAM's shareholders.
PMCI acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock
of ADAM from its shareholders in consideration for payment of $5
million at closing and two earn-out payments on the first and second
anniversary dates of the closing. The first earn-out payment will
equal 1.0% of ADAM's standard fee assets under management in excess of
$500 million, determined on the one-year anniversary of the closing of
the Acquisition, not to exceed $2.0 million, plus interest thereon at a
rate of 8.75%. The second earn-out payment will equal 1.0% of ADAM's
standard fee assets under management in excess of $700 million,
determined on the two-year anniversary of the closing of the
Acquisition, not to exceed $2.0 million. The Acquisition was accounted
for using the purchase method of accounting. The excess of the cost of
the Acquisition over the fair value of the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. The Acquisition was
funded from the proceeds of a private placement of PMCI common stock
which also closed on September 24, 1997. The Company raised
approximately $6.6 million by selling 4,882,996 shares of PMCI common
stock at $1.50 per share.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
include the historical accounts of Portfolio Management Consultants,
Inc. for all periods, the accounts of PMCI since September 30, 1993,
the accounts of Portfolio Brokerage Services, Inc., and Portfolio
Technology Services, Inc. since inception, and ADAM since September 24,
1997. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission. 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, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals and
elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The unaudited
condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, as amended, for the year ended
December 31, 1996, as amended.

PMC INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Product Development
Product development costs consist of salary and benefits, outside
services and other direct costs relating to customization of products
for institutional client relationships. These costs are capitalized
and amortized straight line over the terms of the related contracts.
During the three months ended September 30, 1997, $594,000 of product
development costs were capitalized. These costs are being amortized
over periods ranging from 36 to 60 months.
Allowance for Losses on Uncollectible Accounts Receivable
General allowances for losses are provided based on past experience.
Management's evaluation considers various factors including, but not
limited to, the ability to collect all amounts due according to
contract terms. Specific allowances for losses are established when a
significant and permanent contingency exists or is likely to occur.
NOTE 2 - LONG TERM NOTE RECEIVABLE
In January 1997, KP3, LLC ("KP3") a limited liability company owned and
controlled by the Company's president and chief executive officer,
borrowed $1,750,000 from a bank with a due date of December 31, 1997.
The purpose of the loan was to finance payment of the deferred portion
of the purchase price of 1,643,845 shares of the Company's common stock
owned by KP3 that were purchased from a former officer of the Company
at the time of his departure. In connection with this borrowing, the
Company agreed to collateralize the loan on behalf of KP3.
Accordingly, $1,890,000 of cash included in cash and cash equivalents
(representing the initial principal balance plus interest) became
restricted for this purpose. During 1997, the Company has loaned KP3
approximately $96,000 specifically designated to pay the interest on
the bank loan. KP3 has agreed to reimburse the Company for all amounts
paid by the Company toward the loan or for collateral applied to the
loan, including interest at an annual rate of 9% and has granted the
Company a security interest in its 1,643,845 shares of the Company's
common stock. Such loan was restructured through a different bank on
October 1, 1997. In connection therewith, the collateral pledge by the
Company in connection with the loan was reduced to $1,400,000 and the
Company released 350,000 shares of the common stock in the Company
which it held as collateral. The new loan is due December 31, 1998.
During January 1997, the Company authorized collateralized financing of
154,690 shares of the Company's common stock which had been purchased
and owned by a number of PMC employees as part of a private sale of
stock by a shareholder of the Company in 1993. This purchase was
originally financed through a bank loan which came due on December 31,
1996. The balloon amount due at the expiration of the loan was
$142,093. The Company is receiving monthly installments in the amount
of $3,435 collected through payroll deductions. These notes will
mature on December 31, 1999, with balloon payments of $38,826 due from
employees.

"Company") develops, markets, and manages sophisticated investment
management products and services. Not a money manager itself, the
Company's products and services facilitate the selection and/or
monitoring of unaffiliated money managers or mutual funds for customers
of the Company's distribution channels depending upon the size,
sophistication and requirements of the investor. The Company's
products and services address investment suitability and
diversification, asset allocation recommendations, portfolio modeling
and rebalancing, comprehensive accounting and portfolio performance
reporting. The Company's revenues are realized primarily from fees
charged to clients based on a percentage of managed assets and to a
lesser extent on consulting fees for certain advisory services and
licensing fees from its software products. At the present time, the
principal factors affecting the Company's revenues are whether the
Company adds or loses customers for its investment management services,
the performance of equity and fixed income markets, and the type and
size of accounts managed by the Company and related differences in fees
charged.
The following discussion relates to the Company's financial statements
included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended
September 30, 1997. This report should be read in conjunction with the
Company's financial statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, as amended, for the year ended
December 31, 1996 (the "10-KSB"), and the Form 8-K dated October 8,
1997 (the "8-K"), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission"). Statements which are not historical facts
contained in this Form 10-QSB are forward looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ from projected results. Without limiting the foregoing, the
words "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects," "intends," and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially include the addition or loss of a substantial customer for
the Company's investment management and consulting services, general
economic (specifically market) conditions, and other factors detailed
in Forms 10-KSB, as amended, and 8-K.
ADAM Acquisition
On September 24, 1997, the Company acquired ADAM Investment Services,
Inc. ("ADAM") and its wholly owned subsidiary Optima Funds, Inc. (See
Note 2 to the Financial Statements, above.) ADAM is a registered
investment adviser with approximately $1.2 billion in assets under
advisement. As the transaction was completed just six days prior to
the end of the third quarter, the impact of the acquisition on the
Company's statements of income is nominal, but is fully reflected in
the September 30, 1997 balance sheet. Beginning with the fourth
quarter, ADAM's operations will be fully reflected in the Company's
financial statements.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended September 30, 1997, Compared to Three Months Ended
September 30, 1996 and
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997, Compared to Nine Months Ended
September 30, 1996
Revenues were $3,454,000 for the quarter ended September 30,
1997, compared to $2,483,000 for the corresponding quarter in 1996, an
increase of 39%. Revenues were $9,306,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, compared to $7,692,000 for the corresponding nine
months in 1996, an increase of 21%. The increase was attributable
primarily to investment management fees generated from new
institutional client relations. In addition, asset based fees
increased in direct proportion to increases in the stock market.
Revenues related to these new relationships are based upon a percentage
of assets under management using the Company's products and services.
Much of the new business is from distribution channels that pay the
Company only its net portion of the fees, and does not include the fees
for third parties (i.e., portfolio managers, solicitors, brokerage or
custody). Historically, fees paid to the Company through its primary
distribution channels included fees payable for these other services.
When the Company acts in the capacity of vendor, consultant or
sub-advisor to another entity that is either a registered investment
advisor or exempt under the law, the Company is likely to be paid only
its portion of the total client fee. When the Company acts in the
capacity of investment advisor, it is more likely to collect the gross
fee paid by the client and then pay investment manager and other third
party fees.
Expenses Investment manager and other third party fees were
$1,703,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1997, compared to
$1,393,000 for the corresponding quarter in 1996, an increase of 22%.
Investment manager and other third party fees were $4,437,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared to $4,225,000 for the
corresponding nine months in 1996, an increase of 5%. Direct expenses
increased as a result of new business and the need to allocate
additional resources to service such new business. However, as
discussed above, direct expenses did not increase in proportion to
revenues as certain of these revenues are recognized on a net basis to
the Company. In addition, asset based direct expenses increased in
direct proportion to increases in the stock market.
Net Revenue after Investment Manager and Other Fees was $1,752,000
for the quarter ended September 30, 1997, compared to $1,090,000
for the corresponding quarter in 1996, an increase of 61%. Net Revenue was
$4,868,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared to
$3,467,000 for the corresponding quarter in 1996, an increase of 40%.
These increases are explained above under Revenues and Direct
Expenses.
Operating Expenses were $2,522,000 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1997, compared to $2,021,000 for the corresponding
quarter in 1996, an increase of 25%. Operating expenses were
$6,950,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared to
$5,581,000 for the corresponding nine months in 1996, an increase of
25%. These increases were due primarily to an increase in salaries and
benefits which increased 31% for the nine month period, and general and
administrative costs which increased 49% for the nine month period.
Personnel and the related operating costs increased to support the
expansion of the Company's products and services, the development of
internal systems and the servicing of several new distribution channels
and customers.

Also, the Company established a reserve of $250,000 for potential
losses resulting from uncollectible accounts receivable. Management of
the Company determined that a reserve should be established in the
third quarter on revenue recognized from new business relationships
entered into during 1997.
The total number of Company employees at September 30, 1997 was 84
including employees transferred from ADAM, as compared to 50 at
September 30, 1996. Clearing charges and user fees decreased by 30%
for the nine month period as a result of the implementation of a new
in-house trading system and termination of outside service bureau.
Advertising and promotion increased by 26% for the nine month period as
a result of development and support of new distribution channels.
Product development costs increased by 90% for the nine month period as
a result of implementation on a new portfolio accounting system and
maintenance of proprietary software. Interest costs for the nine month
period decreased by 89% as a result of the repayment of a note
payable. Depreciation and amortization increased by 66% for the nine
month period as a result of a general increase in the level of fixed
assets. The Company believes continued expansion of its operations is
essential. As a consequence, the Company intends to continue to
increase operating expenditures.
Income Taxes Based on current estimates of operating results,
the Company expects its effective tax rate to be -0- for 1997.
Net Loss The Company recorded a net loss of $770,000 for the
quarter ended September 30, 1997 as compared to $931,000 for the same
period in 1996, a decrease of 17%. The net loss was $2,082,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared to $2,114,000 for the
corresponding nine months in 1996, a decrease of 2%. The Company
recorded a net loss of $770,000 for the quarter ended September 30,
1997 as compared to $734,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1997, an
increase of 5%. For the quarter ended September 30, 1997, the net loss
before interest, taxes, provision for bad debt, depreciation and
amortization was $187,000 as compared to $685,000 for the corresponding
quarter in 1996, an improvement of 73%.
The improvement in earnings was the result of revenues growing at a
faster pace than direct and operating expenses. Also, certain product
development costs amounting to $594,000 were capitalized during the
quarter ended September 30, 1997. (See Note 1.) The decisions by
management to capitalize certain costs directly impact the earnings of
the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 1997, the Company had cash of $3,465,000, a
substantial portion of which was held in short-term interest bearing
accounts, including restricted cash of $1,890,000. (See Note 2.)
For the nine month period ended September 30, 1997:
Cash used in operating activities was $3,047,000. This was due
primarily to a net operating losses sustained. Also, as a result of
the ADAM acquisition, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts
payable, accrued expenses and deferred income increased. In addition,
accounts receivable and deferred revenues increased as a result of new
business.
Cash used in investing activities was $7,009,000. Cash used in
investing activities was the result of goodwill generated from the ADAM
acquisition and capital expenditures incurred as a result of business
expansion.
Cash provided by financing activities of $7,022,000 was primarily
related to the private placement of common stock.
The Company anticipates that it will continue to experience operating
losses until such time, if ever, as investment management fees from
managed assets and consulting and license fees increase sufficiently to
cover the Company's increasing operating expenses. While the Company
believes that it has sufficient capital resources to meet its ongoing
funding requirements, until it products and services can generate
sufficient revenues to offset costs, there can be no assurance that the
Company's products and services will be successful, that they will
generate adequate revenue to meet the Company's capital needs or that
the Company will become profitable in the future.
