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 1996 and a valuation allowance was provided for the deferred asset of
$683,000.

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capital may not be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital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, 1997 the Company has net capital of approximately $265,835 which
was approximately $165,835 in excess of its required net capital and the
Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 1.55. As of

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

 Results of Operations

Revenues
Total revenues increased 73% through the second quarter of 1997 compared to the
same period in 1996.

Commission increased by 39% due to increases in sales transactions.

The 153% increase for the first six months of 1997 in advisory and fee income
over the same period in 1996 is primarily due to increased activity in corporate
finance.

Interest and dividend income for the second quarter of 1997 are comparable to
those over the same period in 1996.

As of June 30, 1997, margin income decreased by 33% over the same period in
1996, primarily due to variations in margin deposit balances.

Trailer Fees increased by 50% through the second quarter of 1997 compared to the
same period in 1996 due to an increase in size of money market funds and mutual
funds.

Miscellaneous Income increased significantly during the first six months of 1997
compared to that of 1996, primarily due to the addition of subsidiary activity.

Expenses
Overall, expenses increased 54% through the second quarter of 1997 compared to
that of 1996.

Compensation and benefits increased by 86% due to increases in sales
transactions and to the addition of subsidiary activity.

The clearing fees through the second quarter of 1997 increased by 40% compared
to those in 1996 due to an increase in transactions.

Occupancy expense during the second quarter of 1997 are comparable to those over
the same period in 1996.

Business development expenses increased by 104% through the second quarter of
1997 compared to expenses made over the same period in 1996, primarily due to an
increase in marketing for the corporate finance division.

Communication expenses through the second quarter of 1997 decreased by 17%
compared to those during the same period in 1996 due to continued cost-cutting
measures.

The 24% increase in other expenses for the first six months of 1997 is due
primarily to ongoing accounting reclassifications and to the addition of
subsidiary activity.

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, 1997
the Company's net capital was approximately $265,835 which was approximately
$165,835 in excess of its required net capital.
