forward-looking statements that are based upon numerous assumptions about future
conditions that could prove not to be accurate. Actual events, transactions and
results may materially differ from the anticipated events, transactions or
results described in such statements. The Company's ability to consummate such
transactions and achieve such events or results is subject to certain risks and
uncertainties. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the

the Company's business that are beyond the Company's control. The Company
undertakes no obligation and does not intend to update, revise or otherwise
publicly release the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements
that may be made to reflect future events or circumstances.

The information contained herein is presented in United States dollars in
accordance with Canadian GAAP except where specifically noted.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales were $6,271,356 for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to
$7,002,361 for the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Contribution by each subsidiary
is as follows; core operations, $1,592,965, The Wholesale Group, Inc.,
$1,282,139, Telecom Corporation of Chicago, $1,634,394 and Eastern Equipment
Brokers, Inc., $1,761,859.

Commission income was $88,375 for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to
$0 for the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Commission income earned during the
third quarter of fiscal 2000 represents the commission earned on consignment
sales of used and surplus office equipment pursuant to the Asset Disposition
Contract with Danka Office Imaging dated May 10, 2000.

Cost of sales were $4,388,460 or 70% for the third quarter of 2000 compared to
$4,744,586 or 68% for the third quarter of 1999. Contribution by each subsidiary
to cost of sales is as follows; core operations, $1,214,478, The Wholesale
Group, Inc., $918,190, Telecom Corporation of Chicago, $975,031 and Eastern
Equipment Brokers, Inc., $1,280,761.

Gross profit on equipment sales for the third quarter of 2000 was $1,882,896 or
30% compared to $2,257,775 or 32% for the third quarter of 1999 reflecting a
decrease of $286,504. The Company's gross profit as a percentage of sales has
remained relatively constant from the third three months of 2000 compared to the
third three months of 1999, and managements expects to continue to realize
similar gross profit percentages for the remainder of fiscal 2000. Contribution
by each subsidiary to gross profit is as follows; core operations, $378,487, The
Wholesale Group, Inc., $363,469, Telecom Corporation of Chicago, $659,363, and
Eastern Equipment Brokers, Inc., $481,098.

General and Administrative Expenses incurred during the third quarter of 2000
were $1,437,464 compared to $1,500,896 for the third quarter of fiscal 1999
reflecting a decrease of $63,432. This decrease is a result of management's cost
saving program, which was implemented for fiscal 2000 to enable the Company to
become more efficient while reducing corporate overheads. The total decrease in
general and administrative expenses has been partially offset by new costs
incurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 which relate to start up costs of
the Company's new e-commerce initiatives. The Company has incurred approximately
$140,000 in costs in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 in preparation of
launching it's own business to business and business to consumer websites.
