The financial statements included herein have been prepared by High
Hopes, Inc. without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote

accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed
or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations, and High Hopes, Inc.

conjunction with the May 31, 1997 audited financial statements and the
accompanying notes thereto. While management believes the procedures followed

procedures that will be accomplished by High Hopes, Inc. later in the year.

ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
High Hopes, Inc. (the "Company") was organized as a Nevada corporation on
August 24, 1986, in order to evaluate, structure and complete a merger with,
or acquisition of, prospects consisting of private companies, partnerships of
sole proprietorships. The Company may seek to acquire a controlling interest
in such entities in contemplation of later completing an acquisition. The
Company is not limited to any operation or geographic area in seeking out
opportunities. Management has not identified any particular business or
industry within which the Company will seek an acquisition or merger. The
Company has not conducted, nor have others made available to it, market
research supporting the viability of the Company's proposed operations.
The Company generated minimal revenues during the quarter ended November 30,
1997, and management does not anticipate more than minimal revenues until
following the conclusion of a merger or acquisition, if any, as contemplated
by the Company's business plan.
The Company's capital is limited. The Company anticipates operational costs
will be limited until such time as significant evaluation work is undertaken
regarding prospective mergers or acquisitions.
At November 30, 1997, the Company had no material commitments for capital
expenditures.
