1. Basis of Presentation
The statement of financial position as of June 30, 1996, the statements of
operations for the six month period ended June 30, 1996, and 1995 and the
statements of cash flows for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
fairly present the financial position at June 30, 1996 and for all periods
presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's December 31, 1995 Annual Shareholder Report.
The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for the full year.
2. Firm Trading Securities
Firm trading securities consisted of the following:
June 30, December 31,
1996 1995
Corporate Equities $ 0.00 $ 0.00
3. Stockholders' Equity
Profit (Loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net profit
(loss), less the preferred stock dividend requirement by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the period, which was 18,523,096
shares.
4. Income Taxes
During 1992 the Company adopted Financial Accounting Statement No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes. The Company recorded no benefit from income taxes
in 1995 and a valuation allowance was provided for the deferred asset of
$751,000.
Temporary differences between amounts reported for financial reporting purposes
and income tax purposes are insignificant.
5. Net Capital Requirements
The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net
Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1), which requires the maintenance of minimum net
capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital,
both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. The Rule also provides that equity
capital may not be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital
ratio would exceed 10 to 1.
As of June 30, 1996 the Company has net capital of approximately $362,026 which
was approximately $262,026 in excess of its required net capital and the
Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was .28. As of December
31, 1995 the Company had net capital of approximately $358,274, which was

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Results of Operations
Revenues
Total revenues decreased 13% through the second quarter of 1996 compared to the
same period in 1995.
Commission decreased by 20% due to decreases in all areas of equity and fixed
income transactions.
The 8% increase for the first six months of 1996 in advisory and fee income over
the same period in 1995 is primarily due to increased volume of activity.
Interest and dividend income increased by 15% for the first six months of 1996
compared to that of 1995, primarily due an increase of cash available for
investment.
As of June 30, 1996, margin income increased by 62% over the same period in
1995, primarily due to increased activity in this area.
Expenses
Overall, expenses decreased 11% during the first six months of 1996 compared to
that of 1995.
Compensation and benefits decreased by 23% due to decreases in all areas of
equity and fixed income transactions.
The clearing and exchange expenses through the second quarter of 1996 are
comparable to those during the same period in 1995.
The 21% decrease through the second quarter in occupancy expenses over the same
period in 1995 is due to a move made by the Annapolis office to smaller quarters
as well as a drop in equipment leasing expenses resulting from the completion of
a lease-purchase agreement.
Business development expenses decreased by 48% during the second quarter of 1996
compared to expenses made over the same period in 1995. The 1995 first quarter
expenses included a prepayment of advertising expenses related to promotion of
tax credit seminars which was not repeated during the first quarter in 1996.
The 4% decrease in communication expenses through the second quarter of 1996 is
due to continuing cost-cutting measures.
The 62% increase in other expenses for the first six months of 1996 is due
primarily to ongoing accounting reclassifications.
Financial Position, Liquidity, and Capital Resources
The Company is required to comply with the Uniform Net Capital Rule of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The Rule is intended to measure the general
financial soundness and liquidity of broker-dealers. The Company has
consistently exceeded the minimum net capital requirement. As of June 30, 1996,
the Company's net capital was approximately $362,026 which was approximately
$242,026 in excess of its required net capital.
