                          PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM I.  Financial Statements 
         See attached financial statements

ITEM 2.  Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

         Results of Operations

    Revenues of the Company for the quarter ended September 30, increased from
$13,971,392 in fiscal year 1995 to $15,603,322 in fiscal year 1996, an increase
of approximately 11.7% over the previous year. The Company experienced
increased revenues in the latest fiscal quarter over the comparable quarter for
previous year as a result of the successful sale of more products. It should be
particularly noted that sales resulting form exports also increased in the in
latest fiscal quarter over the comparable quarter for previous year.

    Management expects continued growth of revenues from its core business
activities. Management is continuing to expand its market operations and to cut
costs to maximize future profit potential. 

    The Company generated an operating profit of $1,106,909 for the quarter in
fiscal year 1996, when compared to a profit of $856,485 for the comparable
quarter in fiscal year 1995.  The Company recorded a net profit of $734,071 for
quarter in fiscal year 1996, when compared to a net profit in the comparable
fiscal year 1995 of $371,462. The Company's selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased slightly as a percentage of the Company revenue when compared
to the previous year's fiscal quarter as a result of more efficient management
of resources. Operating expenses decreased to $2,786,356 for the quarter in
fiscal year 1996, as compared to $2,812,818 for the comparable quarter in
fiscal year 1995.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

    At September 30, 1996, cash and cash equivalents was $5,542,782, as
compared to $2,042,399 at September 30, 1995.

    At September 30, 1996, the working capital ratio was 1.27 as compared to
 .91 at September 30, 1995.

    Historically, the Company has generally relied upon internally generated
funds to satisfy working capital requirements. Management believes that it can
continue to fund its obligations and implement the development of its business
segments with available cash and internally generated cash flow. However, the
Company may partially rely upon external financing or equity contributions for
capital investment purposes, although there are no specific plans to do so at
the present time. The Company does not foresee a major requirement for capital
in the next fiscal

the foreseeable future.

September 30, 1996. This Agreement also specified that the Company shall divest
itself of all prior operations, which was also accomplished as of September 30,
1996.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements as of

wholly-owned subsidiary, Rincon de los Toros, S.A.  Rincon de los Toros, S.A. is
an inactive Company.  All significant intercompany transactions and balances
have been eliminated.  Rincon de los Toros, S.A. was merged into Corporation
PIPASA, S.A. during the period ended September 30, 1996, using the pooling of
interests method of accounting.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - The Company considers all liquid investments with
original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

DEPRECIATION, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS - Depreciation is provided by the
straight-line method.  Estimated useful lives for depreciation purposes are as
follows:

          Buildings                   10 - 50 years
          Machinery and equipment      5 - 10 years
          Production equipment         5 - 10 years

<PAGE>

are expensed as incurred.

AMORTIZATION - Amortization of intangible assets which include copyrights,
royalties and goodwill is provided by the straight-line method.  Estimated
useful lives for amortization purposes are as follows:

          Goodwill         5 - 10 years
          Royalties        5 - 10 years
          Copyrights       5 - 10 years


CAPITALIZED ADVERTISING COSTS - Advertising and re-launching of Company
products are capitalized and amortized to expense over one year.  Advertising
signs are loaned to customers and remain the property of the Company.  The signs
are capitalized and amortized on the straight-line method over their estimated
useful lives.  All other forms of advertising are charged to expense as
incurred.

ESTIMATES - Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Those
estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenue
and expenses.  Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in
preparing the financial statements.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES - Held-to-maturity securities are recorded as non-current
assets and reclassified to current assets when maturity is within the next year.
Available-for-sale securities are either (1)recorded as current assets because
they represent an excess of available funds and, even though management has no
current plans to dispose of them, it can sell them at any time at its option or
(2) classified as current and non-current based on management's plans to dispose
of them.  Trading securities are classified as current assets.

INVENTORY - Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is
determined using the weighted average method for all inventories.

INCOME TAXES - During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1992, the Company adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes", which requires an assets and liability approach for financial
accounting and reporting for income taxes.  Under SFAS No. 109, deferred income
taxes are provided for the temporary differences between the financial reporting
basis and the tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities.  Deferred
income taxes represent the future tax return consequences of the temporary
differences, which will be taxable or deductible when assets and liabilities are
recovered or settled.
