             Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                                September 30, 1996
                                   (Unaudited)


  1. INTERIM FINANCIAL PRESENTATION

     The interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements
     for reporting on Form 10-QSB.  The March 31, 1996 balance sheet data was
     derived from audited financial statements but does not include all
     disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.  The
     interim financial statements and notes thereto should be read in
     conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the
     Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended March 31, 1996.  In the opinion
     of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of
     a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the 
     results for the interim periods presented.

     On October 10, 1996, the Company effected a 1-for-4 reverse stock split. 
     Accordingly, the reverse stock split has been reflected in the 
     accompanying financial statements for each period presented and earnings 
     per share has been computed using this revised equity structure.

  2. CURRENCY PRESENTATION AND FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

     Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at period
     end exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at average
     exchange rates during the period.  Adjustments arising from translating
     foreign currency financial statements are reported as a separate component
     of stockholders' equity.  Gains or losses from foreign currency
     transactions are included in income.  Aggregate net foreign currency gains
     or losses were immaterial for all periods.

     The consolidated financial statements of the Company are maintained, and
     its consolidated financial statements are expressed, in Hong Kong dollars. 
     The translations of HK dollar amounts into US dollars are for convenience
     only and have been made at the rate of HK$7.73 to US$1, the approximate
     free rate of exchange at September 30, 1996.  Such translations should not
     be construed as representations that the Hong Kong dollar amounts could be
     converted into US dollars, at that rate or any other rate.

  3. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

     During the six months ended September 30, 1996, the Company sold 6,760
     shares of Series B convertible preferred stock, par value $0.001 each, 
     for $6,760,000.  The Series B preferred shares were convertible into 
     common stock commencing on or after 45 days following the sale of such
     shares.  Each Series B preferred share was convertible into the number of
     shares of common stock determined by dividing US$1,000 by an amount equal
     to the lesser of (1) the market price of the common stock on the closing
     date of the sale of such shares or (2) 70% of the average closing bid 
     price of the common stock for the five trading days preceding the
     conversion.  The right of the holders of Series B preferred shares to
     convert such shares into common stock expired on December 31, 1997.

     During the six months ended September 30, 1996, all of the Series B
     preferred shares were converted into common stock of the Company resulting
     in the issuance of 5,218,797 shares of common stock.

  4. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     After September 30, 1996, the following subsequent events took place:

     The company declared a 1-for-4 reverse split of its common stock
     effective October 10, 1996.

 ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 MATERIAL CHANGES AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    Net sales during the six months ended September 30, 1996 totaled HK$119.3
million, representing a 2.0% increase, compared to net sales of HK$117.0 
million during the same period in 1995.  The slight increase in net sales was
attributable to implementation of the Company's plan to alter its sales mix 
with an emphasis on increased sales of higher margin cultured pearls.  Cultured
pearls, including Chinese cultured pearls, Japanese cultured pearls and South
Sea Pearls, represented 68% of net sales during the six months ended September
30, 1996 as compared to 54% of net sales during the same period in 1995.

    Gross profits increased by HK$6.3 million, or 16.7%, to HK$44.0 million 
for the six months ended September 30, 1996 compared to HK$37.7 million for the
same period in 1995.  As a percentage of sales, gross profits increased from
32.3% in 1995 to 36.9% in 1996.  The increase in gross profits and gross profit
margins resulted from the overall increase in sales and an increase in the
percentage of higher margin cultured pearls.

     Rental income increased by HK$685,000, or 41.8%, to HK$2.3 million for the
six months ended September 30, 1996 compared to HK$1.6 million for the same
period in 1995.  The increase in gross rental income was attributable to an
increase in occupancy rate from 57% to 86%, respectively, in the Man Sang
Industrial City facility located in the People's Republic of China.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") during the six 
months ended September 30, 1996 totaled HK$20.2 million, consisting of HK$18.6
million attributable to pearl operations and HK$1.6 million attributable to 
real estate operations, as compared to HK$16.7 million, consisting of HK$15.8
million attributable to pearl operations and HK$0.9 million attributable to 
real estate operations, during the same period in 1995, an increase of HK$3.5
million, or 20.9%.  The increase in SG&A was primarily due to increased
marketing expenses associated with the higher sales volume, including 
exhibition expenses and advertising and promotion expenses for trade shows and
increased salaries attributable to hiring of additional staff to support the
expanded scope of operations and increases in management salaries.  As a
percentage of net sales, SG&A from pearl operations increased from 13.5% to
15.6%.

    Net interest expense increased by HK$167,000, or 6.5%, to HK$2.75 million
for the six months ended September 30, 1996, from HK$2.59 million for the same
period in 1995.  The increase in net interest expense was due principally to 
an increase in short-term borrowings during the first quarter of the current
fiscal year.  The increase in short-term borrowings was used to finance higher
inventory holding costs associated with higher levels of production and sales. 
The Company's average borrowing rate decreased to 10.7% per annum for the six
months ended September 30, 1996 from 12.2% per annum for the year ended March
31, 1996.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    At September 30, 1996, the Company had working capital of HK$104.5 million
and cash balances of HK$19.5 million as compared to a working capital balance 
of HK$43.7 million and a cash balance of HK$9.6 million at March 31, 1996.  The
improvement in working capital was attributable to a combination of (I) cash
flows from profitable operations and (ii) the receipt of HK$39.9 million of net
proceeds from the sale of convertible preferred stock during the period.

     Inventories increased by HK$26 million to HK$111.9 million at September 
30, 1996 from HK$85.9 million at March 31, 1996.  The increase in inventories
was attributable to higher purchasing and production to meet increased demand
for the Company's Chinese cultured pearls and because of a change in the mix of
the inventory to a higher percentage of more expensive cultured pearls.
Inventories of Chinese cultured pearls and South Sea pearls increased by HK$8.6
million and HK$10.1 million, respectively, during the period.  The increase in
inventories has been primarily financed with short-term borrowings and proceeds
from the sale of convertible preferred stock.

     Accounts receivable increased to HK$47.9 million at September 30, 1996 
from HK$33.8 million at March 31, 1996.  The increase in accounts receivable 
was attributable to a large increase in net sales in September 1996 as a result
of a very successful trade show appearance and slightly more favorable credit
terms offered to selected customers.  The average turnover of accounts
receivable for the six months ended September 30, 1996 was 65 days as compared
to 60 days for the year ended March 31, 1996.

     At September 30, 1996, the Company had utilized approximately HK$50.8
million of its credit facilities as compared to HK$53.9 million which had been
utilized at March 31, 1996.  The decrease in borrowings under the Company's
credit facilities was attributable to the receipt of the net proceeds from the
sale of convertible preferred stock during the period.

     During the six months ended September 30, 1996, the Company issued
convertible preferred stock raising approximately HK$39.9 million net of
offering costs.  At September 30, 1996, all 6,760 shares of Series B 
convertible preferred stock issued had been converted to common stock at a 
price equal to 70% of the average closing bid price of the common stock for 
the five trading days preceding the conversion.  As a result of such
conversions, the Company issued approximately 5,218,797 shares of common stock
(prior to giving effect to a 1-for-4 reverse split of the Company's common 
stock effective October 10, 1996).
