INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL GROWTH, LTD.
(a development stage company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996
(NOTE A) - The Corporation:
- ---------------------------
International Capital Growth, Ltd. (the "Company") was formed in
February 1996 as a Delaware Corporation, with the purpose of operating
as a registered broker/dealer. Through December 31, 1996, the Company
has been in the development stage and has conducted no revenue
producing activities.
(NOTE B) - Use of Estimates:
- ----------------------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(NOTE C) - Subscriptions Receivable:
- ------------------------------------
Subscriptions receivable represent amounts to be collected by the
Company from a Series A convertible preferred stockholder.
(NOTE D) - Preferred Stock:
- ---------------------------
The preferred stock is convertible into common stock at a one to one
ratio and carries the same voting rights. The preferred A and preferred B stock
carry a .14 and .21 per share liquidation value, respectively. Beginning October
12, 1996, the preferred stock carries a cumulative dividend of 5% of the
liquidation preference per annum. Unless earlier converted, each outstanding
share of preferred stock shall be automatically converted into one share of
common stock without any action by the holders thereof on October 21, 1997.
(NOTE E) - Warrants:
- --------------------
In October 1996 the Company raised $3,250,000 through the sale of units
in a private placement. Each unit was sold for $25,000 and consisted of 12,500
shares of common stock and 12,500 redeemable warrants. As a result, the Company
has 1,625,000 redeemable warrants issued and outstanding.
(continued)
- 6 -
<PAGE>
INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL GROWTH, LTD.
(a development stage company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996
(NOTE E) - Warrants: (continued)
- --------------------
Each redeemable warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one
share of common stock at an initial exercise price of $4.00 per share (subject
to adjustment for stock splits, combinations and reclassifications) at any time
prior to redemption from October 3, 1996 and October 15, 1996 until October 3,
1999 and October 15, 1999, respectively.
Additionally, the Company has agreed to issue 250,000 redeemable common
stock purchase warrants in exchange for consulting services to be rendered on
behalf of the Company. The consulting warrants vest at the rate of 125,000 per
annum on a pro rata basis based upon the number of months that such consulting
services are provided to the Company, commencing in November 1996. Each
consulting warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of
common stock at an initial exercise price of $2.00 per share at any time prior
to redemption from the date of issuance until 36 months thereafter.
(NOTE F) - Stock Option Plan:
- -----------------------------
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related
interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because, as
discussed below, the alternative fair value accounting provided for under FASB
Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," requires use of
option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee
stock options. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's
employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the
date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.
The Company's 1996 Incentive Stock Option Plan has authorized the grant
of options to management personnel for up to 1,500,000 shares of the Company's
common stock. All options granted have 10 year terms and carry certain vesting
requirements.
Pro forma information regarding net income is required by Statement
123, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee
stock options under the fair value method of that statement. The fair value for
these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option
pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for 1996 interest
rates of 6.2%, dividend yields of 0%, volatility factors of the expected market
price of the Company's common stock of .1 and .35; and a weighted-average
expected life of the option of 10 years.

INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL GROWTH, LTD.
(a development stage company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996
(NOTE F) - Stock Option Plan: (continued)
- -----------------------------
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in
estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions
and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the
input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price
volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics
significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the
subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in
management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable
single measure of the fair value of its employee stock option. The pro forma net
loss for 1996 is $(1,332,416). A summary of the Company's stock option activity
and related information for the period February 1, 1996 through December 31,
1996 is as follows:
Weighted-Average
Options Exercise Price
------- ----------------
Outstanding - beginning of
period ...................... - -
Granted ........................ 660,000 $2
Exercised ...................... -
Forfeited ...................... -
Outstanding - end of year ...... 660,000 2
Exercisable - end of year ...... 660,000 2
Weighted-average fair value
of options granted during
the year .................... 2
(NOTE G) - Related Party Transactions:
- --------------------------------------
The Company is under common ownership with Capital Growth International
("CGI") and CGI is utilizing space at the Company's offices without the
allocation of rent.

INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL GROWTH, LTD.
(a development stage company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996
(NOTE H) - 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. (8 to 1 for the first 12
months of operations). At December 31, 1996 the Company had net capital of
$3,009,255 which was $2,959,255 in excess of its required net capital.
(NOTE I) - Exemption From Rule 15c3-3:
- --------------------------------------
The Company is exempt from the reserve requirement of the Securities
and Exchange Commission's Rule 15c3-3 pursuant to Section
15c3-3(k)(2)(ii).
(NOTE J) - Commitments:
- -----------------------
The Company has issued a letter of credit in the amount of $100,000 to
secure future rent payments and leasehold improvements at the Company's London
office.
(NOTE K) - Taxes on Income:
- ---------------------------
At December 31, 1996 the Corporation has a net operating loss carryover
of approximately $700,000 available to apply against future taxable income.
These carryovers expire in 2011 and result, for financial reporting purposes, in
noncurrent benefits to the Corporation of approximately $287,000 at December 31,
1996, representing the effect of their potential use in reducing future taxable
income. Because of the uncertainty of the realization of such benefits in future
years, the Corporation has fully reserved against such benefits and has not
recognized them at any dollar value in the accompanying financial statements.
(NOTE L) - Subsequent Events:
- -----------------------------
The Company is currently undertaking a Private Placement for the
issuance of a minimum of 1,000,000 shares of common stock and a maximum of
2,000,000 shares at $2.25 per share. Such offering is scheduled to expire in
March 1997.

CAPITAL GROWTH HOLDINGS, LTD.
(formerly Galt Financial Corporation)
PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(Unaudited)
On March 14, 1997 Capital Growth Holdings, Ltd. (formerly Galt Financial
Corporation) (the "Company") acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of
International Capital Growth, Ltd. (a development stage company) ("ICG"), a
Delaware Corporation and member of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. in a reverse acquisition consummated through a share exchange
transaction (the "Share Exchange").
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet combines the
balance sheets of the Company and ICG as at January 31, 1997 and December 31,
1996, respectively and reflects the (1) share exchange, (2) sale of common stock
in a private placement completed on March 27, 1997 and (3) conversion of certain
notes into common stock on March 13, 1997.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed statement of operations
combines the historical operations of the Company for the year ended January 31,
1997 with the historical results of ICG for the period February 1, 1996
(inception) to December 31, 1996; assuming the share exchange occurred at the
beginning of the periods presented.
The pro forma condensed balance sheet and pro forma condensed statement of
operations is not necessarily indicative of what the financial position and
results of operations would have been had the transaction occurred earlier, nor
do they purport to represent the future financial position or results of
operations of the Company. The pro forma information should be read in
conjunction with the notes thereto and the financial statements of the Company
at January 31, 1997.
