NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated balance sheet of AgriStar Inc. (the "Registrant") as of
June 30, 1996 and the consolidated statement of operations for the three-month
and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and June 30, 1995 and the consolidated
statements of cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996 and June
30, 1995 included herein are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management,
they reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated
financial position, results of operations and changes in financial position of
the Registrant at June 30, 1996. The consolidated financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included
in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
1995.
2. ACCRUED ACQUISITION COSTS
The Registrant's 1993 acquisition of certain assets of Stewart Orchids
include quarterly cash payments equal to 10 percent of revenues received from
sales of the acquired inventory through April 1996. The contingent payments
were recorded as part of the purchase price, and are not to exceed cash of
$280,000 and 300,000 shares of restricted common stock issuable at a rate of
one share of common stock for every $8.33 of revenues from the sale of the
acquired inventory. In January 1996. ArmRoy Stewart agreed to a final balance
of $76,000 payable in 24 equal payments with interest.
3. INVESTMENT IN CONSOLIDATED FOREIGN OWNED SUBSIDIARY
On December 31, 1995, the Registrant divested itself of its investment
in AgriStar de Venezuela, S.A. Production was discontinued at the
micropropagation facility in 1994, and the remaining inventory was sold. A
final net loss of $38,208 was reflected in December 31, 1995.
4. INVESTMENT IN MINORITY OWNED SUBSIDIARY
The Registrant's investment in AgriStar (Asia) Ltd., a 49 percent owned
Hong Kong corporation, is accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
The Registrant has no obligation to fund the operating losses of AgriStar (Asia)
Ltd. Accordingly, the Registrant has not recognized its equity in the operating
losses of AgriStar (Asia) Ltd. beyond its investment. The investment is not
expected to be material to the Registrant's 1996 financial statements.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues during the three months ended June 30, 1996 were $506,003 as
compared with the revenues of $656,566 during the comparable three months
ending June 30, 1995 for a decrease of $150,563. The decrease was due to a
reduction in sales of AgriStar Flowers due to prolonged winter conditions
throughout the US and to the absence of potato mini-tuber sales from AgriStar's
micropropagation facility. The lower sales were at a higher gross margin than
in the same period in 1995.
The Registrant's gross margin during the quarter ended June 30, 1996 was
$305,803 as compared with a gross margin of $348,661 during the comparable
quarter of 1995. The 60% gross profit on sales was increased from the previous
year because of higher margins on orchids plant sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30,
1996 was $313,754, as compared to $251,032 for the same period of 1995. The
increase of $62,722 is principally due to the addition of sales and management
staff at Stewart Orchids and increased travel expenses related to sales
promotions.
Other income during the quarter ending June 30, 1996 was $92,744 as
compared to $2,993 for the same period in 1995. The increase was due to the
cancellation of certain debts owed by the Company.
The Registrant, however, continues to suffer from liquidity constraints and
there can be no assurance that the Registrant will be able to pay its
obligations when due.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At June 30, 1996, the Registrant had total assets of $1,717,947 including
$1,267,835 of current assets, and total current liabilities of $959,665. In
August, 1995, the Registrant obtained a loan of $300,000 at 12% to help purchase
inventory and reduce other debt. On May 20, 1996, notice was received by
Registrant that the maturity of the note was being accelerated due to failure to
pay the interest which was due on March 4, 1996. The notice calls for payment
of the principle and interest due. As of the date of this report, the payment
of this note has been postponed indefinitely while the Company seeks additional
financing. When (and if) its current financial resources are exhausted, the
Registrant will, in all likelihood, be required to seek additional financing
from outside sources. Due to uncertainties with respect to the timing of
revenues from sales, the Registrant is presently unable to estimate the amount
of additional capital that will be required (if) its current financial resources
are exhausted. The Registrant has no commitment for such additional financing,
if required, and there is no assurance that the Registrant will be successful in
obtaining additional financing or that such financing, if required, will be on
terms acceptable to the Registrant.
