                              FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         INTRODUCTION TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

         The interim financial statements included here in have been prepared by
Bayou International, Ltd. (the "Company") without audit, pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (The "Commission").
Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although
the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. These interim financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1998.

         In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position
of the Company as of December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the results of its
operations for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1998 and
December 31, 1997, and the changes in its cash flows for the six month periods
ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, have been included. The results
of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
results for the full year.

         The results of the Company's operations for the three and six months
ended December 31, 1998 were effected by the sale, on July 8, 1998 of the
Company's sole operating subsidiary, Solmecs Corporation N.V. ("Solmecs"), in
exchange for an approximate 24% interest in the acquiror. The results of
operations of Solmecs are presented in the consolidated financial statements as
discontinued operations. The results for previous periods have been restated
accordingly.

              UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED, ALL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
              PRESENTED IS IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS.

                    BAYOU INTERNATIONAL, LTD. AND SUBSIDIARY
                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                      December 31, 1998, June 30, 1998 and
                                December 31, 1997


(6)  AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS

Bayou advances to and receives advances from various affiliates. All advances
between consolidated affiliates are eliminated on consolidation. At December 31,
1998, Bayou had no outstanding advances to or from unconsolidated affiliated
companies. $220,000, $171,000 and $175,000 of accounts payable for the years
shown is due to an affiliated management company.


(7)  GOING CONCERN

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplates
continuation of Bayou and Solmecs as a going concern. However, Bayou has
sustained recurring losses. In addition, Bayou has no net working capital, which
raises substantial doubts as to its ability to continue as going concerns.

Bayou anticipates that it will be able to defer repayment of certain of its
short term loan commitments until it has sufficient liquidity to enable these
loans to be repaid or other arrangements to be put in place.

In addition Bayou has historically relied on loans and advances from
corporations affiliated with the President of Bayou. Based on discussions with
these affiliate companies, Bayou believes this source of funding will continue
to be available.

Other than the arrangements noted above, Bayou has not confirmed any other
arrangements for ongoing funding. As a result Bayou may be required to raise
funds by additional debt or equity offerings in order to meet its cash flow
requirements during the forthcoming year.


(8) SALE OF SOLMECS

Pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated as of June 5, 1998, the Company
acquired 499,701 shares in SCNV Acquisition Corp ("SCNV"), representing
approximately 24% of the issued and outstanding share capital of SCNV, in return
for the whole of the share capital of Solmecs Corporation N.V., a Netherlands
Antilles company which prior to the exchange was formerly a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company. The 499,701 shares has been valued at US$2,800,000 or
A$4,516,000 and will be accounted for using the cost method because the Company
does not exercise significant influences over SCNV's operating and financial
activities (see note 4). The sale resulted in a gain of $5,899,000 which is
included in other income.

SCNV is a Delaware corporation established May 1997 to select, develop and
commercially exploit proprietary technologies, in various stages of development,
invented primary by scientists who have been recently immigrated to Israel from
and by scientists and institutions in Russia and other countries that formerly
comprised the Soviet Union. Simultaneously with the SCNV stock acquisition by
the Company, SCNV completed an initial public offering of common stock and
warrants which resulted in gross proceeds of approximately US$5,900,000.

The Company has been granted certain demand and "piggyback" registration rights
with respect to the SCNV shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company has
agreed not to sell, grant options for sale of assign or transfer any of the SCNV
shares, for a period of 24 months from the closing of the ("Lock-up") agreement,
provided, however, that under certain circumstances, the Company shall have the
right to distribute the SCNV shares pro rata to its stockholders and provide
further that the recipients will take such shares subject to the remaining term
of the lock-up. The Company does not currently have any plans to distribute the
SCNV shares of its stockholders.

The sale of Solmecs Corporation N.V. has been accounted for in the consolidated
financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The
assets and liabilities of discontinued operations as of December 31, 1997 and
June 30, 1998, have been combined and reflected in the accompanying balance
sheet as net liabilities of discontinued operations.

The following is a summary of net assets and results of operations of Solmecs
Corporation N.V. as of December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1998 and for the periods
then ended.

(9) INCOME TAXES

Bayou files its income tax returns on an accrual basis. Bayou has carry forward
losses of approximately US$14 million as of June 30, 1998 which expire in the
years 1999 through 2012. Due to the uncertainty as to realization of these
losses, no benefit has been recorded.


                                                                              10

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

FUND COSTS CONVERSION

The consolidated statements of income and other financial and operating data
contained elsewhere here in and the consolidated balance sheets and financial
results have been reflected in Australian dollars unless otherwise stated.

The following table shows the average rate of exchange of the Australian dollar
as compared to the US dollar during the periods indicated:

         6 months ended December 31, 1997 A$1.00 = U.S. $.6503
         6 months ended December 31, 1998 A$1.00 = U.S. $.6115

RESULTS OF OPERATION

SIX  MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 VS. SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER  31 1998.

Costs and expenses decreased from A$215,000 in the six months ended December 31,
1997 to A$250,000 in the six months ended December 31, 1998. The decrease is a
net result of:

a)       an increase in interest expense from A$142,000 for the six months ended
         December 31, 1997 to A$157,000 for the six months ended December 31,
         1998 as a result of the increase in long term debt of the Company.

b)       the decrease in legal accounting and professional expense from A$38,000
         for the six months ended December 31, 1997 to A$16,000 for the six
         months ended December 31, 1998. The amount for the six months ended
         December 31, 1997 included substantial costs in regard to the disposal
         of Solmecs Corporation N.V.

c)       the increase in administrative costs including salaries from A$35,000
         in the six months ended December 31, 1997 to A$77,000 in the six months
         ended December 31, 1998 which relate to costs incurred in providing
         information to shareholders in respect to the sale of Solmecs
         Corporation N.V.

As a result of the foregoing, the loss from operations increased from A$215,000
for the six months ended December 31, 1997 to A$250,000 for the six months ended
December 31, 1998.

The Company realised a foreign exchange gain of nil for the six months ended
December 31, 1998 compared to a foreign currency exchange loss of A$1,000,000
for the six months ended December 31, 1997 caused by the movement in the
Australian dollar versus the U.S. dollar. All of the Company's loan accounts
were denominated in U.S. dollars however, these loans were foregiven as part of
the sale of Solmecs Corporation N.V.

A loss was incurred on the discontinued operations of Solmecs Corporation N.V.
for the six months ended December 31, 1997 with no comparable amount for the six
months ended December 31, 1998..

The net loss was A$250,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1998 compared
to a net income of A$427,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1997.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of December 31, 1998 the Company had short term obligations of A$228,000
comprising accounts payable and accrued expenses and owed an amount of
A$3,836,000 to Chevas Pty Ltd of which the President and the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company Mr. J I Gutnick is a Director.

The Company anticipates that it will be able to defer repayment of certain of
its short term loan commitments until it has sufficient liquidity to enable
these loans to be repaid which there can be no assurance. In addition the
Company has historically relied upon loans and advances from affiliates to meet
a significant portion of the Company's cash flow requirements which the Company
believes based on discussions with such affiliates will continue to be available
during fiscal 1999 and 2000.


                                                                              11
<PAGE>   12
Other than the arrangements above the Company has not confirmed any further
arrangements for ongoing funding. As a result the Company may be required to
raise funds from additional debt or equity offerings and/or increase the
revenues from operations in order to meet its cash flow requirements during the
forthcoming year.
