Part III - Narrative
The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30,
1998 (Form 10-K) could not be filed within the prescribed period because the
financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998 required for
inclusion in Form 10-K have not been reviewed by management. Because of
scheduling difficulties, executives of the Company responsible for such review
have not been able to review such statements with the Company's auditors.
Accordingly, the Company will require additional time for management to
discharge its responsibility with regard to reviewing the Form 10-K.

The results of operations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998 will vary
significantly from the corresponding period for the previous fiscal year because
of the following:
1) Revenues of approximately $460,000 and related cost of goods sold and
advertising and promotion costs aggregating approximately $590,000 during
the fiscal year ended April 30, 1997 were all reduced to zero for the
fiscal year ended April 30, 1998.
2) General and administrative expenses less management fees were approximately
$200,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1997 as compared to
approximately $1,300,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998.
This increase resulted principally from a decline in management fees of
approximately $760,000.
3) The gain on sale of Datatec common stock for the fiscal year ended April
30, 1998 was approximately $1,300,000 as compared with $2,300,000 for the
fiscal year ended April 30, 1997.
4) The write off of investment in, and advances to, Evolutions, Inc. was
approximately $1,900,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1997 and was
zero for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998.
5) The deferred income tax expense of approximately $800,000 for the fiscal
year ended April 30, 1997 was reduced to zero for the fiscal year ended
April 30, 1998.
