PART I. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
(1) Overview
Grafix Corporation d/b/a Carrera Golf (the "Company") is a Delaware
corporation that owns a license (the "Carrera License") to manufacture,
sell and distribute golf products (golf clubs, bags, accessories and
apparel) under the Carrera brand name worldwide. The Company originally
obtained a Carrera license by purchasing the assets of Sports Equipment
Technology Company ("SETCO") in January, 1996. This transaction was
accounted for as a merger, and is more fully discussed in the Company'
Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996, and the notes
to the financial statements filed therewith. The financial statements
filed as a part of the Company's Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter
ended December 31, 1995 have been adjusted to reflect the SETCO merger.
All references to the Company's past activities include the activities
of SETCO.
In January, 1997, the Company obtained a new long-term Carrera License
from Carrera Optyl Marketing GmbH, a subsidiary of Safilo Group GmbH,
Italy ("Safilo"). Safilo had acquired the Carrera brand name through
bankruptcy proceedings in Germany. The Carrera License runs for five
years, with an additional automatic renewal of 5 years. The Carrera
License obligates the Company to pay Safilo a royalty on sales, and
includes annual minimum royalties.
The Company was in the product research and development stage until
approximately July, 1996. In early 1996, the Company successfully
consummated a distributorship agreement with Citizen Trading Group,
Tokyo, Japan ("Citizen"), for distribution of all Carrera Golf products
in Japan. Citizen placed its first order with the Company in July,
1996. As of December 31, 1997, Citizen was the Company's primary
customer, accounting for over 90 percent of the Company's sales.
On April 6, 1998, the Board of Directors elected Mr. Monte Ahuja as
Chairman, and named Kent D. Krausman president and CEO of the Company.
On July 30, 1998, the Company effected a reincorporation in Delaware by
merging with Grafix Corporation. The Company's Board of Directors and
shareholders approved a 1:3 reverse split of the Company's issued and
outstanding common stock effective August 1, 1998. On August 10, 1998,
the Company filed a Report on Form 8-K detailing the corporate changes
referenced above. That Report is incorporated herein by reference.
(2) Results of Operations
The Company has successfully designed and developed golf clubs, bags,
accessories and apparel for sale under the Carrera brand name. The
Company's primary customer is Citizen; however, management has
developed a marketing plan for 1998 and beyond that contemplates sales
in Asia, Europe, and the United States. The Company's marketing plan is
dependent upon continuing the relationship with Citizen, and upon
obtaining other sources of financing. The Company has established
assembly and other operations in Denver, Colorado, and has realized
initial sales in the United States as of the date of this report.

Second Quarter 1998 (Ended March 31, 1998) Compared to Second Quarter
1997
Sales
The Company reported net sales of $ (9,399) for the quarter ended March
31, 1998, compared with sales of $ 435,886 for the same period the
prior year. Management attributes this decrease to the Asian economic
recession which began in late 1997, and is ongoing. Virtually all golf
equipment companies that realize sales in Asia have reported
significant sales declines as a result of the Asian recession. The
Company is particularly susceptible to this economic downturn, as
Citizen accounts for over 90 percent of the Company's sales. Management
previously adopted a diversification strategy so that the Company would
not be as dependent on Citizen. Management continues to implement that
strategy, which includes but is not limited to introduction of products
in Canada, the U.S., Europe, and South/Central America, as well as
development and introduction of the Company's line of apparel.
Costs and Expenses
The Company reported selling, general, and administrative expenses of $
313,386 for the second fiscal quarter of 1998, an increase of $ 108,392
(52.9%) from the same period the prior year. Principal expenditure
increases included advertising, travel, salaries, professional fees,
and research and development, as the Company geared up to introduce its
products in other markets. The Company also paid interest expenses of $
89,749 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, compared with interest
expenses of $ 30,275 for the same period the prior year.
Net Loss
The Company reported a net loss of $ (421,474), or $ (.03) per share,
for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, compared with a net profit of $
9,119 for the same period the prior year. Management attributes the net
loss directly to the Asian economic recession, which accounted for no
sales to Citizen during the quarter.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 1998, the Company had over $1.6 million in cash, accounts
receivable, and inventory (at cost). The Company also reported over $
2.2 million in short-term notes payable. Assuming normal collection of
accounts receivable and inventory replacement, the Company can, for the
short term, continue to service its debt. There is no assurance that
Citizen will begin to make orders of the Company's products, or that
the Asian economic crisis will improve in the immediate future. Mr.
Ahuja, the Company's Chairman, has provided much of the Company's
operating capital (or guarantees for loans for working capital). The
Company is continuing its efforts to raise financing from other
sources; however, there is no guarantee that such efforts will be
successful. It is unlikely that the Company will survive in the long
term if Citizen does not reestablish orders, and/or if the Company's
financing efforts are unsuccessful.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On or about December 9, 1997, Mr. Ron Karani, the Company's former
president, filed a civil action against Mr. Ahuja and the Company, relating to
Mr. Karani's termination in July, 1997. Mr. Karani alleges breach of contract,
promissory estoppel, conversion, breach of implied covenant of good faith and
fair dealing, wrongful discharge, tortious interference with a contractual
relationship, and conspiracy against the Company and Mr. Ahuja. It is unclear
from Mr. Karani's Complaint whether he is alleging all of his claims against the
Company; however, the Company has filed an Answer and Counterclaims in the case,
and believes any claims made by Mr. Karani against the Company are without
merit. The Company intends to vigorously defend this case, and to vigorously
pursue its counterclaims against Mr. Karani.
Item 2. Changes in Securities
The Company's Board of Directors and shareholders approved a 1:3 reverse
split of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock, effective August 1,
1998.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
On July 15, 1998, a shareholders owning a majority of the then-issued and
outstanding common stock of the Company voted to approve a 1:3 reverse split of
the Company's issued and outstanding common stock, effective August 1, 1998.
Item 5. Other Information
None.
Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K
The Company filed a Report on Form 8-K on August 10, 1998, reporting the
1:3 reverse split of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock,
reincorporation of the Company in Delaware, change of the Company's name to
Grafix Corporation, and naming of new officer and directors (Item 5).
