Operating results for the quarter and nine months ended July 31, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending

Note C - Dividends

None.

Note D - Common Stock

During the first quarter of 1996, the Company purchased 4,000 shares of common
stock on the open market.

During the third quarter of 1996, the Company received $105,500 from
subscriptions for 52,750 shares of unregistered common stock through a private
placement.  The related expenses were $11,525. 
<PAGE>
Note D - Unusual Expenses

During the second quarter of 1996, the Company made a provision for certain
unusual expenses. The provision was primarily for a reserve against receivables
recognized in prior years for recovery of certain marketing costs, and a
reserve for disputed packaging and freight costs related to prior years.  The
provision has been reported separately as an other expense in order to avoid
distorting normal operating results.  The provision reduced net earnings by
$114,527, or $.05 per share for the nine months ended July 31, 1996. 

Note E - Earnings per share

Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of common
stock outstanding during the period presented.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations.

Results of Operations. 

The Company's revenues from yogurt sales increased 1.5% to $2,521,312 for the
third quarter, and increased 1.2% to $5,776,679 for the nine months ended July
31, 1996.  The increased revenues during 1996 were primarily the result of
increased co-packing and private label business, as well as increased
international sales.  Early in the fiscal year, revenues were adversely impacted
by the unusually severe weather conditions experienced throughout most of the
United States resulting in a temporary decrease in demand for frozen yogurt
products.

The company's gross profit margin on yogurt sales decreased to 22.6% during the
third quarter compared to 35.3% in 1995.  The gross margin for the nine months
ended July 31, 1996 was 27.9% compared to 32.2% for the same period in 1995.

The reductions in the profit margin have been due to several factors. At the
beginning of the year, the Company began an aggressive program to increase its
market share.  Management considered this strategic because of a realignment
occurring in the industry and the related opportunities that were presented. 
Certain areas of the United States were targeted and pricing strategies resulted
in lower margins.  In addition the Company has incurred additional costs
associated with introducing new products and expanding its business activity in
Canada.  Since the end of the quarter, the Company has experienced a growth in
sales, including increased revenues from certain new products as well as in its
Canadian sales.  

Other major factors effecting gross margins were the significant increases in
ingredients, transportation, and warehousing costs experienced during the year. 
Milk shortages especially impacted ingredient costs.  As a result of the
Company's analysis of both market conditions and its costs, the Company has
recently increased prices in the food service and certain other segments of
its business.  This is expected to improve future operating results.      

Selling and  marketing expenses in the third quarter decreased from 12.5% to
11.3% of revenues.  For the nine months ended July 31, 1996, these expenses
increased slightly from 12.8% to 13.9% of revenues.  This reflects the Company's
expanded marketing and sales activity.  As a result, for example, the Company in
June was approved by the SYSCO Corporation of Houston, Texas to begin producing
single serve four ounce cups of non-fat frozen yogurt, and non-dairy sorbet
products under SYSCO's "Cool N' Classy"   label.  These products in five flavors
are available through SYSCO nationwide.  The arrangement does not commit SYSCO
to specific quantities.  International Yogurt Company began making shipments to
SYSCO late in the third quarter.  

<PAGE>
General and administrative expenses decreased from 13.9% to 10.1% of revenues
for the quarter, and decreased from 14.9% to 12.2% of revenues for the nine
months, reflecting management's efforts to control such expenses.    
 
During the second quarter of 1996, the Company made a provision for certain
unusual expenses.  The provision was primarily for a reserve against receivables
recognized in prior years for recovery of certain marketing costs, and a reserve
for disputed packaging and freight costs related to prior years.  The provision
has been reported separately as an other expense in order to avoid distorting
normal operating results.  The provision reduced net earnings by $114,527, or
$.05 per share in the nine months ended July 31, 1996. 

Income from operations decreased during  the third quarter due to the pressure
to hold sales prices down,  aggressive pricing  to gain market share, and the
increase in certain costs described above.  An additional factor impacting the
nine month results was the provision for unusual expenses described above.  

 Liquidity and Capital Resources.

The Company has financed its operations and expansion from bank loans, capital
leases, capital investment by its founders, private and public securities
offerings and internally generated funds.  

During the third quarter of 1996, the Company received $105,500 from
subscriptions for 52,750 shares of unregistered common stock through a private
placement.  The related expenses were $11,525.  

As of July 31, 1996, the Company's total borrowings under its bank line of
credit were $1,187,929 at an interest rate of 1% over the bank's basic
commercial lending rate. On October 31, 1995, total borrowings were $1,089,920.
Borrowings under this line are payable upon demand and limited to 65 percent of
eligible accounts receivable and 30 percent of eligible inventory up to an
aggregate maximum of $1,500,000.  The line was renewed in August 1996, and
matures  February 1, 1997.   The bank also approved a $200,000 credit facility
for equipment financing.

Accounts receivable at April 30, 1996 were $1,051,682, a 20.4% increase over 
accounts receivable at October 31, 1995.  The increase is primarily attributable
to the higher level of sales in July 1996, as compared to October 1995.

Inventory decreased to $1,480,227 at July 31, 1996, from $1,554,625 at October
31, 1995.  This 4.8% decrease is primarily due to management's efforts to reduce
consigned and warehouse goods in face of the rising freight and warehousing
costs.
