Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the  instructions for Form 10-QSB and Regulation S-B
related to interim period financial statements,  and, therefore,  do not include
all  information  and  footnotes  required  by  generally  accepted   accounting
principles.  However, in the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring  adjustments and accruals)  considered  necessary for a fair
presentation  of the  financial  position  of the  Company at April 30, 1996 and
1995,  have been included.  The results of operations for the interim period are
not  necessarily  indicative  of the results that may be expected for the entire
year.  Reference  should be made to the annual financial  statements,  including
footnotes  thereto,  included in the Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for
the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995.


Note 2 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

As of June 5, 1996, the Company's  backlog was approximately  $2.0 million.  The
Company  includes  in its  backlog all orders  booked  through a valid  purchase
order, but not shipped.  Product orders in the Company's backlog can extend over
a period as long as six months and are subject to changes in delivery  schedules
and  cancellation at the option of the purchaser  without  significant  penalty.
Accordingly,  backlog at any particular  date may not be a reliable  measure for
any future  period.  See  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.

 Subsequent to April 30, 1996, the Company entered into subscription  agreements
to issue and sell  97,000  shares of common  stock in exchange  for  $533,500 in
cash.  As of  June  10,  1996  all  subscription  amounts  have  been  received.
Additionally,  the Company has received $516,500 as consideration for options to
purchase  61,000  shares of common  stock  which the  optionee  may call for the
consideration  to be returned at any time  during the period  beginning  45 days
after the date of the option and ending on various dates in August and September
1996.

On May 15, 1996 holders of all issued and  outstanding  shares of the  Company's
preferred  stock converted their shares of preferred stock into common stock, at
a conversion  price of $5.50 per share.  The 73,350  preferred  shares have been
converted into 58,191 common shares.  All dividends on the preferred shares have
been paid to the date of conversion.

On May 13, 1996 the Company,  Ron Borta and Leslie Davis  completed an agreement
in principle  which  provides for,  among other things,  the  resignation of Ron
Borta and Leslie Davis as officers and  directors of Borta,  Inc. In  connection
therewith, Mr. Borta and Ms. Davis will surrender all options to purchase common
stock previously granted to either of them, and Mr. Borta will surrender 357,143
restricted  shares of common stock previously  granted to him, together with any
options,  incentive  payments or rights  related  thereto.  In  connection  with
severance benefits the Company will pay to each of Mr. Borta and Ms. Davis eight
months salary, based on their current rates of pay, over a six month period with
the  remaining  balance  payable on December  31, 1996.  In  addition,  $425,000
remaining to be paid to Ron Borta pursuant to his signing bonus with the Company
will be payable $5,000 upon the execution of definitive  agreements  relating to
the resignations, $150,000 in August 1996, and the balance on December 31, 1996.
Mr. Borta will continue to be available to serve as a consultant to the Company,
for no  additional  compensation,  for up to 15 hours per month  until  July 31,
1996.

Item 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The Company designs and develops game,  music and  entertainment  products which
take advantage of the increasingly  widespread  availability of  telephone-based
computer  networks,  such as the Internet and its World Wide Web. The  Company's
products will be accessed at out-of-home locations through proprietary terminals
linked to the Internet and at home through  CD-ROM  software  available  through
retail and other channels of distribution.

From inception to April 30, 1996,  the Company's  operating  activities  related
primarily to recruiting personnel,  raising capital, purchasing operating assets
and performing research and development. The Company now intends to focus on the
refinement of its networking systems and game software, and the launching of its
out-of-home   networked   games  and   entertainments,   and  at-home  game  and
entertainment software.

The Company has only a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of the
Company and its prospects can be based.  The Company's  networked  entertainment
products are still being  developed and have not generated any revenues to date.
To date,  substantially all of the Company's  revenues have been attributable to
services and products other than the networked  entertainment products currently
focused upon by the Company.  The Company's  future  financial  performance will
depend in large part upon the successful development,  introduction and customer
acceptance of its networked entertainment products.

During the next twelve months,  the Company  expects to continue the development
of terminals and software for its interactive, networked entertainment products.
The Company will be dependent upon  distributors for the sale of its out-of-home
entertainment terminals and software, and on relationships with distributors and
software  publishers  for access to  existing  distribution  systems for at-home
software.

The Company's employee base grew from ten full-time  employees in fiscal 1994 to
approximately fifty full-time employees by early 1996.  Continued expansion will
occur  primarily in the areas of  networking  systems and game  engineering  and
graphics,  which  will  increase  the design and  development  capabilities  for
networked multiplayer games and entertainments.

History

On May 3, 1995, Aristo  International  Corporation,  a New York corporation (the
"Predecessor"),  was merged (the "Merger") with and into the Company,  which was
then known as "The  Astro-Stream  Corporation."  The Company  was the  surviving
corporation in the Merger and,  pursuant to the Merger,  the name of the Company
was changed to "Aristo  International  Corporation."  Prior to the  Merger,  the
Company had no operations. The Predecessor was incorporated in 1990 to invest in
licensable and patentable  consumer products for the mass market. From late 1994
until the effective date of the Merger,  the Predecessor  (and since the Merger,
the Company) has conducted its business as described above.

On July 31, 1995, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding  capital stock of
Borta, Inc., an entertainment  software engineering and development company (the
"Acquisition").

General

The Company's revenues  historically have been comprised of software development
fees and royalties on software  products.  Cost of revenue,  which  includes the
salaries of the software  programmers and engineers,  as well as depreciation of
the fixed  assets  used in the  development  of the  software,  are  included in
research and development.

Revenue from  software  development  contracts  is  recognized  when  prescribed
milestones,  as defined in the specific  contracts,  are  reached.  Royalties on
software are recognized as earned.

The  Company's  financial  statements  do not contain a provision for income tax
expense from its  inception  through  April 30, 1996 as the Company has incurred
operating losses since  inception.  The Company has paid minimum state and local
taxes  during the years,  as required.  As of October 31, 1995,  the Company had
available  unused  net  operating  loss carry  forwards  of  approximately  $9.8
million.  These tax benefits,  which may provide future tax benefits,  expire in
the period from 2006 to 2010 and may be subject to limitations  under 382 of the
Internal Revenue Code. The Company has fully reserved these potential future tax
benefits.

Comparison of the six months ended April 30, 1996  vs. April 30, 1995

Consolidated  revenues for the six months ended April 30, 1996 were $186,038, an
increase of $184,278 as compared to the same period in 1995.  Revenues  from the
development of software  represented 98% of the 1996 revenues.  Royalties on the
Company's consumer products  represented 2% of revenues in 1996 compared to 100%
of revenues in 1995.

Selling,  general and administrative expenses for the six months ended April 30,
1996 increased to $2,575,295  from $1,217,294 for the six months ended April 30,
1995.  Approximately  17%, or $234,188 of the  increase in selling,  general and
administrative  expense was due to an  increase in travel and related  expenses.
This  increase  was the  result  of visits to  potential  digital  entertainment
acquisition  targets and travel to the Company's operating  locations.  Selling,
general and administrative  expenses increased  $262,628,  or 19% as a result of
the Acquisition.  Selling,  general and administrative expenses at the Company's
compressed  software  division,  which began  operations in February 1996,  were
$363,717 and  represented 26% of the increase.  Salaries and benefits  increased
$302,082,   or  22%,  as  a  result  of  hiring   additional   corporate  staff.
Additionally,   the  company  provided  a  reserve  for  severance  of  $200,000
representing 15% of the increase in 1996.

These  increases were offset by decreases in professional  and consulting  fees.
Accounting  expenses  decreased  by  $91,748,  primarily  due to the  absence of
services  relating to the Merger during 1996. Legal fees decreased by $56,541 or
4%, primarily due to the absence of services  relating to the Merger offset,  in
part,  by  increased  legal  services  relating to  transactions  in the digital
entertainment marketplace.

Research and  development  expenses  increased to $1,513,294  for the six months
ended  April 30,  1996 from $21 for the six months  ended  April 30,  1995.  The
increase is  attributable  to the  development of networked game  technology and
design of networked and multiplayer games.

Interest and other income (expense) - net decreased $109,915 to a net expense of
$(68,419)  for the six months  ended  April 30,  1996 from net income of $41,496
during the same period in 1995.  The decrease is primarily due to an increase in
interest expense in 1996 of $48,199 as a result of additional  borrowing offset,
in part,  by an increase  in interest  income of $13,426 and a gain in 1995 from
the  settlement  of a lawsuit in the  amount of  $76,466  which did not recur in
1996.

Comparison of Quarter Ended April 30, 1996 vs. April 30, 1995

Consolidated  revenues for the three months ended April 30, 1996 were  $144,168,
vs. $(29) for the same period in 1995. Revenues from the development of software
represented 99% of the 1996 revenues.  Negative revenue was recorded during 1995
due to an  adjustment  of  commissions  owed on  royalties  from  the  Company's
consumer products.

Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses for the three months ended April
30, 1996 increased to $1,503,593  from $641,097 for the three months ended April
30, 1995.  Approximately 19%, or $167,426,  of the increase in selling,  general
and  administrative  expense  was  due to an  increase  in  travel  and  related
expenses.  This  increase  was the  result of visits  to  potential  interactive
multimedia  acquisition targets and travel to the Company's operating locations.
Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  increased  $106,706 or 12% as a
result of the Acquisition.  Selling,  general and administrative expenses at the
Company's compressed software division, which began operations in February 1996,
were  $363,717  and  represented  42% of the  increase.  Salaries  and  benefits
increased $159,394 or 18% as a result of hiring additional staff.These increases
were  offset by  decreases  to  professional  and  consulting  fees.  Accounting
expenses  decreased  $10,984 or 1%  primarily  due to  services  relating to the
Merger  incurred in 1995,  including  an audit for the three  fiscal years ended
October  31,  1994.  Legal fees  decreased  by $38,298  or 4%  primarily  due to
services  relating to the Merger  offset,  in part, by increased  legal services
relating to transactions in the interactive multimedia marketplace.

Research and  development  expenses  were to $843,439 for the three months ended
April 30, 1996 vs. Zero for the three months ended April 30, 1995.  The increase
is  attributable  to the  development of networked game technology and design of
networked and multiplayer games.

Interest and other income  (expense) - net decreased to $(5,780) from  $(37,918)
in 1995.  The decrease in 1996 is primarily  the result of interest  earned upon
the  maturity of  certificates  of deposits  and monthly  bank  interest and the
absence of  unrealized  losses on marketable  securities of $12,772  incurred in
1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception,  the Company has financed its activities with the sale of stock
and convertible  notes for cash amounting to approximately  $12,429,000 and with
the exchange of stock for approximately  $934,000 in products and services.  The
Company  intends  to use  its  best  efforts  to  finance  or  obtain  financing
sufficient for the Company's requirements.

Aristo has a revolving  credit  facility  with a bank in the amount of $500,000.
The facility  expires on May 20, 1997.  As of April 30, 1996,  $406,000 had been
drawn upon, of which $250,000 is collateralized by a certificate of deposit.

The Company expects to continue to increase  expenditures in connection with new
product development and market expansion.  Based on its available cash position,
its  revolving  credit  facility and its  demonstrated  ability to raise capital
through equity financing,  the Company believes that it has sufficient resources
to meet its financial  requirements  and operational  needs over the next twelve
months.

bearing  interest at twelve  percent per annum,  payable on July 12,  1996,  the
maturity  date of the note.  The holder of the note,  until the  maturity  date,

restricted  common stock. The holder also has a continuing  contractual right to

of music and video onto video CD's. In certain  circumstances  this  contractual
right is  terminable  by the Company and  convertible  into warrants to purchase
additional  shares of the Company's common stock. On June 13, 1996 the holder of
the note  indicated  its intent to convert the note into  90,909  shares of thhe
Company's common stock.

interest at twelve  percent per annum,  payable on June 28, 1996.  The holder of
the note shall have the right to convert the note into  89,898  shares of common

PART II     -           OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1      -           LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

                        Polymer  Technologies,  Inc. V. Aristo Intl..  Corp. The
                        Predecessor  attempted  to  develop a lunch box  divided
                        into  thermostatic  compartments,  and for this purpose,
                        entered into a contract with Polymer Technologies,  Inc.
                        to develop a prototype and then manufacture a marketable
                        version  of the  product.  Polymer  failed to  produce a
                        prototype satisfying the design specifications  provided
                        by the  Predecessor.  The  Predecessor  terminated  this
                        project with Polymer. In May, 1993, Polymer commenced an
                        action  in the  U.S.  District  Court  for the  Southern
                        District  of New York  seeking  damages in the amount of
                        approximately  $65,000.  A stipulation of settlement was
                        filed in this suit on April 15, 1996,  pursuant to which
                        the Company  will pay Polymer  $30,000 in  installments,
                        the last of which will be payable on June 15, 1996.
