              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

        The accompanying  interim financial  statements as of September 30, 1996
and for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 are unaudited and, in
the opinion of management,  all  adjustments  necessary for a fair  presentation
have been  included,  and  consist  only of normal  recurring  adjustments.  The
financial   statements  are  condensed  and,  therefore,   do  not  include  all
disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial  statements  should be read in conjunction  with the Company's  annual
financial  statements  included in the Company's  Annual Report pm For, 10-K for
the year ended June 30,  1996.  The results of  operations  for the three months
ended  September  30, 1996 are not  necessarily  indicative of the results to be
expected  for the entire  fiscal year ending June 30, 1997.  Certain  previously
reported  amounts have been  reclassified  to conform to the  September 30, 1996
presentation.  These  reclassifications had no affect on the previously reported
net loss.

        Information  regarding  the  Company's  operations  for the three months
ended September 30, 1996, relating to the direct mail marketing industry and the

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


Overview

        The Company began operations in 1987 to provide highly targeted business
to consumer  advertising through direct mail. Since the Company's founding,  the
direct mail  business  has provided  substantially  all of its net sales and the
Company intends to continue to grow its direct mail business.

        In fiscal year 1994, the Company began  developing  its own  proprietary
advertiser and end-user funded national on-line network - ValuOne Online.  Since
fiscal year 1994,  the Company has  devoted  significant  resources  towards the
development of ValuOne Online and anticipates launching the service in the first
quarter of calendar year 1997.  The Company  believes that in the future the net
sales from ValuOne Online should surpass those of the direct mail business.

        The Company charges direct mailing fees based primarily on the number of
mailings provided to each customer. Support services which are typically bundled
with the mailing include targeting and profiling the mailing audience, designing
and printing the mailing, and analyzing the results of the mailing campaign.

        The  cost  of  postage  is a  significant  element  of any  direct  mail
campaign.  Recent  increases in postal  rates will  increase the costs of direct
mailings.  Although  management  believes that the postal rate increase will not
have a material  long term  effect on  demand,  there is no  assurance  that the
postal rate increase will not depress the number or reduce the  profitability of
mailings by the  Company.  Additionally,  fluctuations  in the price of paper or
other  materials  may  adversely  impact the  profitability  of  mailings by the
Company in the future.

Quarter Ended September 30, 1996 Compared with Quarter Ended September 30, 1995

        Net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 increased by 37.8% to
$1,481,171  from  $1,074,559 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995. Net sales
growth resulted primarily from an increase in the number of pieces mailed during
the  quarter  ended  September  30,  1996.  The average  price per piece  mailed
increased by 14.8% to $.419  during the quarter  ended  September  30, 1996 from
$.365 during the quarter ended September 30, 1995.

        Postage expense as a percent of sales increased 20.9% to $524,499 during
the quarter  ended  September  30, 1996 from  $433,766  during the quarter ended
September 30, 1995. The increase was primarily  attributable  to a higher number
of pieces  mailed  during the quarter  ended  September 30, 1996 than during the
quarter ended  September 30, 1995.  Postage expense as a percentage of net sales
decreased to 35.4% during the  September  30, 1996 quarter from 40.4% during the
September 30, 1995 quarter.  The decrease in postage  expense as a percentage of
net sales was primarily  attributable  to an increase in sales prices charged by
the Company to reflect past increases in postal rates.

<PAGE>
        Materials and printing  expense  increased  82.1% to $514,266 during the
quarter  ended  September  30,  1996 from  $282,438  during  the  quarter  ended
September 30, 1995. The increase was primarily  attributable  to a higher number
of pieces  mailed  during the quarter  ended  September 30, 1996 than during the
quarter ended September 30, 1995. Materials and printing expense as a percentage
of sales  increased to 34.7% during the quarter  ended  September  30, 1996 from
26.3% during the quarter ended September 30, 1995. The increase in materials and
printing  expense as a percentage of net sales was  attributable to higher paper
costs and delivery of more material dominant direct mail products.

        Research and development of ValuOne Online  increased 313.4% to $679,447
during the quarter ended  September  30, 1996 from  $164,350  during the quarter
ended September 30, 1995.  Research and development  costs have increased due to
increased levels of activity and personnel  associated with ValuOne Online.  The
Company  anticipates  launching  ValuOne  Online  during  the first  quarter  of
calendar year 1997.

        General and  administrative  expense increased 155.9% to $373,463 during
the quarter  ended  September  30, 1996 from  $145,965  during the quarter ended
September 30, 1995.  General and  administrative  expense as a percentage of net
sales  increased to 25.2% during the quarter ended September 30, 1996 from 13.5%
during the  quarter  ended  September  30,  1995.  The  increase  in general and
administrative  expense as  percentage  of net sales was due to the  addition of
administrative  and support staff, as well as increased related facilities cost,
associated with ValuOne Online.

        Selling  expense  increased  138.2% to $391,490 during the quarter ended
September  30, 1996 from $164,369  during the quarter ended  September 30, 1995.
Selling  expense as a  percentage  of net sales  increased  to 26.4%  during the
quarter ended  September 30, 1996 from 15.3% during the quarter ended  September
30, 1995.  The increase in selling  expense as a percentage of net sales was due
to marketing and promotional expenses incurred in connection with ValuOne Online
product.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The Company  historically  has satisfied its cash  requirements  through
cash flows from operating activities and borrowings from financial  institutions
and related  parties.  However,  in order to fund the expenses of developing and
launching ValuOne Online in March 1996, the Company began a private placement to
major  institutions and other  accredited  investors (the "March 96 Placement").
The Company  completed  the March 96 Placement  for net proceeds of  $16,408,605
during fiscal year 1996, including the exercise of warrants.

<PAGE>

        Operating  activities  consumed  $1,198,627  during  the  quarter  ended
September 30, 1996  compared to $3,416  during the quarter  ended  September 30,
1995.  The increase in cash flows  consumed by operating  activities  during the
quarter ended September 30, 1996 as compared to 1995 was primarily  attributable
to  increased  research  and  development,   selling  and  other  related  costs
associated with ValuOne Online.

        Cash flows used in investing activities were $796,122 and $65,703 during
the quarters ended September 30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  This increase in
cash used for investing activities was primarily attributable to the acquisition
of computer  equipment for ValuOne Online.  The Company's  capital  expenditures
historically have consisted of printing machinery and office equipment.

        Cash flows  provided by financing  activities  were $15,637 and $762,244
during the  quarters  ended  September  30,  1996 and 1995,  respectively.  This
decrease in cash flows provided by financing  activities was because the Company
only raised  $39,750  through the  issuance of common  stock  during the quarter
ended  September  30,  1996 as compared  to  $719,000  during the quarter  ended
September  30, 1995.  The Company did not receive any proceeds  from  borrowings
during the quarter ended September 30, 1996.



Forward looking information

Statements  regarding  the  Company's  expectations  as to future  growth of the
direct  mail  business,   future  revenue  from  ValuOne  Online,  the  expected
commencement  date of  ValuOne  Online  service  and  certain  other  statements
presented in this Form 10-Q constitute  forward looking  information  within the
meaning of the Private  Securities  Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Although the
Company  believes  that its  expectations  are based on  reasonable  assumptions
within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations,  there can be
no assurance that actual results will not differ  materially from  expectations.
In addition to matters affecting the Company's industry generally, factors which
could cause  actual  results to differ from  expectations  include,  but are not
limited to (i)  unanticipated  technical  problems could delay launch of ValuOne
Online, (ii) ValuOne Online has not generated revenues,  and after its launch it
may not generate the level of users or advertisers currently anticipated,  (iii)
the costs to market the ValuOne Online service to advertisers and users could be
substantially  higher  than  anticipated,  (iv) the online  industry  is rapidly
changing,  and the Company may not have the technical or financial  resources to
compete against  existing  online  services or against  services which are newly
introduced  or  modified,  and (v) the  direct  mail  business  may not  grow as
anticipated  due to competitive  factors,  including  postage and material price
increases which make direct mail  uneconomical,  competition with other forms of

<PAGE>

advertising,  and  competition  from other direct mailers over which the Company
may not have a competitive advantage.
