     REVENUE RECOGNITION

     Franchise revenue arises on the sale of national, area and restaurant
     franchises.  Restaurant franchise revenue is recognized as income when the
     respective purchase and sale agreements have been signed, the funds have
     been received, all material conditions relating to the sale have been
     substantially completed by the Company and the restaurant has commenced
     operations.

     Revenue from national and area franchise agreements is recognized when the
     area development agreement has been signed and all substantial obligations
     of the Company have been completed.

                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                              as at March 31, 1996
                               (Canadian dollars)

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)

     REVENUE RECOGNITION (CONT'D)
     When payment for the sale of a national or area franchise is based on a
     contract over a period longer than twelve months, the Company recognizes
     revenue based on the assessment of collectability.  The total contract is
     recorded as deferred revenue, and revenue recognition commences when
     payments in excess of 25% of the total contract have been received and
     management has ascertained that there is a sufficient level of certainty
     that the balance of the contract is collectible.

     Deposits that are non-refundable under the franchising agreement are
     recognized as franchising revenue when received.

     Royalties are recognized when they are earned, based on a percentage of the
     franchisees' sales on a weekly basis.

     Supplier incentives are recognized in the period to which the apply.

     RESTAURANTS HELD FOR RESALE
     Restaurants held for resale are valued at the lower of cost and net
     realizable value.

     CAPITAL ASSETS AND AMORTIZATION
     Capital assets are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization.

     Amortization is provided for at rates intended to write off the assets over
     their estimated economic lives, as follows:
          Furniture and fixtures        -    5 years straight-line
          Machinery and equipment       -    5 years straight-line
          Reference books               -    5 years straight-line

     FRANCHISE RIGHTS
     Franchise rights are being carried at cost less accumulated amortization.
     Amortization is provided for on the straight-line basis over 20 years.

                               (Canadian dollars)

                                                    March                  June

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)

     DEFERRED ISSUE COSTS
     Deferred issue costs represent fees incurred in connection with the
     preparation of regulatory filings for the issue of capital stock.  These
     costs are charged to capital stock in the period the stock is issued.

     DEFERRED EMPORIUM COSTS
     As the project the Coffee Emporium was substantially completed as at June
     30, 1995, the costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis over three
     years commencing July 1, 1995.

     FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
     Foreign currency transactions are translated using the temporal method.
     Under this method, monetary assets and liabilities as well as non-monetary
     items carried at market value are translated at year-end exchange rates.
     Other non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates
     prevailing at the transaction dates.  Revenues and expenses are translated
     at average rates prevailing during the year.

     Gains or losses resulting from exchange translation are included in income.

     EARNINGS PER SHARE
     Net earnings per share are calculated using the daily weighted average
     number of common shares outstanding during the fiscal year plus the net
     additional number of shares which would be issuable upon the exercise of
     stock options, assuming that the Company used the proceeds received to
     purchase additional shares at market value.

3.   NOTES RECEIVABLE

     Notes receivable are due from franchisees with interest at varying rates
     and repayable in scheduled instalments.

9.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     (a) The Company is a defendant in the following civil litigation:

          ( i)   Triadon Investment Group Inc., a subsidiary company, was named
                 in an action by a bank and judgement was awarded against the
                 subsidiary for $119,353.  As the subsidiary company is inactive
                 and without assets,  no provision has been recorded in respect
                 of this judgement.

          (ii)   The Company is also a defendant in several actions arising in
                 the normal course of business, the final outcome of which
                 cannot be determined at this time.  An aggregate provision of
                 approximately $378,740 has been recorded.

     Any settlement in regard of the above actions in excess of amounts provided
     will be recorded in the statement of income in the fiscal year the
     settlement occurs.

     (b)  Certain franchised restaurants occupy their premises under lease
          arrangements wherein the Company is primarily responsible for
          performance under the lease.  These leases are assigned to the
          franchisee, who becomes directly responsible for the contractual
          obligations under the lease.  The aggregate rental obligations under
          these leases and various leases for office space over the next five
          years are as follows:

10.  CAPITAL STOCK

     REVERSE STOCK SPLIT - JUNE 10, 1993
     On June 10, 1993, by consent of the holders of the majority of the
     outstanding shares of the common stock, the Company filed an amendment to
     its Certificate of Incorporation to reverse split the common stock, 1 for 3
     effective June 21, 1993.

     STOCK ISSUE - SEPTEMBER 30, 1992
     On September 30, 1992 the Company issued 33,333 common shares for cash
     consideration of $373,920 (U.S. $300,000).  This equity was provided by
     Austin Bernet, Inc., a related party at that time.

     STOCK ISSUE - FEBRUARY 5, 1993
     On February 5, 1993, Treats International Enterprises, Inc. concluded a
     private sale transaction with Austin Bernet Inc. and other entities which
     may be affiliated with the latter, pursuant to Section 4(2) of the
     Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  These holders of 2,315,000 Class A
     warrants and 2,315,000 Class B warrants (issued with the initial public
     offering), exercised those warrants for a cash consideration of $1,823,063.
     On the close of business February 5, 1993 unexercised warrants expired.

     The above private sale allowed all Class A warrant holders to exercise
     their Class A warrants at $0.27 for one share of the Company's common stock
     and all Class B warrant holders to exercise their Class B warrants at $0.36
     for one share of the Company's common stock.  This resulted in the issue of
     4,630,000 common shares for net  proceed of $1,823,063 (U.S.$1,458,450).
     Each share bears a restrictive legend prohibiting the resale of the share
     of common stock, except where the resale is pursuant to the registration
     under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption therefrom: such as,
     compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 promulgated by the Securities
     Exchange Commission under the U.S. Securities Act.

     These same shares were sold on June 10, 1994 by Austin Bernet Inc. to a
     company controlled by the President and Chief Executive Officer.

10.  CAPITAL STOCK (CONT'D)

     STOCK ISSUE - DEBT RESTRUCTURING - JUNE 30, 1994

     The Company concluded its negotiations under a private placement offering
     to restructure its debt and capital, effective June 30, 1994, as follows:

     Royal bank of Canada, in consideration for retiring the outstanding
     debenture of $4,732,779, issued a subordinated debenture of $1,000,000
     adjusted for $150,000 accretion to $850,000 (see note 7) and was issued
     5,409,825 non-voting series A preference shares for the balance.  These
     shares are redeemable at the option of the Company at a price of U.S. $1
     per share at any time.  The shares carry a cumulative 5.5% cash dividend
     payable quarterly in arrears.  At the option of the holder the dividend may
     be paid in the form of common shares of the Company.  The shares are
     convertible at the option of the holder at U.S. $.60 per share unless a new
     investor invests a minimum of U.S. $4 million in common equity prior to
     June 30, 1995, where the conversion price will be equal to the price set by
     the new investor.  In the event that the debenture is repaid in full prior
     to August 31, 1995 and 50% of the preferred shares are redeemed by the
     Company by August 31, 1995, then the issuer can cause the Royal Bank of
     Canada to convert the remaining series A preference shares into common
     shares.

     SPECIAL SHARES CONVERTED TO COMMON SHARES
     As part of the restructuring, effective June 30, 1994, the 4,500,000
     special shares of Treats Inc. held by the Royal Bank of Canada were
     accreted back to the $45 aggregate issue price.  The Royal Bank of Canada
     converted its special shares into 1,619,760 common shares of the Company.

     RESERVED SHARES
     The Company has issued 350,000 common shares pursuant to the debt
     restructuring on June 30, 1994.  The Royal Bank Capital Corporation
     received an additional 350,000 common shares at nominal consideration as
     the Company has been unsuccessful in raising U.S. $4 million in new equity
     by June 30, 1995.

11.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

(a)  The Royal Bank of Canada and its subsidiary, Royal Bank Capital
     Corporation, are registered holders of 34.1% of the issued stock.  As part
     of the restructuring effective June 30, 1994 (see note 7)  the Royal Bank
     of Canada converted its existing subordinated debenture into preference
     shares and issued a debenture (see note 7).  The carrying value of the
     debenture was discounted to reflect the relative fair value of the debt and
     the shares.  The discount of $150,000 is being amortized on a straight-line
     basis over the life of the debt and results in an annual charge to interest
     expense of $75,000.00.

     Undeclared dividends on the preferred shares owned by the Royal Bank July
     1, 1994 to March 31, 1996 are $359,280.

(b)  Interest expense related to the previous debenture referred to in (a) was
     $18,750 for the quarter (1994 - $18,750).

(c)  Accounts and notes receivable include $45,374 (1994 - $43,591) due from a
     franchisee related to the President and Chief Executive Officer of the
     Company.

(d)  The Company leases its office premises at an annual cost of approximately
     $100,000 from a company which is 100% owned by the family of the President.
     The family owns approximately 34% of the common stock of the Company.

(e)  The Company has advanced $160,000 to certain officers, under a loan
     agreement, to fund the purchase of company stock.

(f)  During the year the term debt owed to the Standard Chartered Bank was
     acquired by a company owned by a group of private investors.  A person
     related to the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company is
     associated with the investor group.

     The calculation of fully diluted earnings per share assumes that, if a
     dilutive effect is produced, all convertible securities have been
     converted, all shares to be issued under contractual commitments have been
     issued and all outstanding options have been exercised at the later of the
     beginning of the fiscal period and the option issue date.  The calculation
     includes an allowance for imputed earnings derived from the investment of
     funds which are assumed to have been received.  Fully diluted earnings per
     share are not presented as they are anti-dilutive.

Item 2

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The retail sales for all units in the franchise system, for the nine months
ended March 31, 1996, were $23,262,000 compared to $23,660,000 for the same nine
month period last year.

During the nine months, eleven units were closed and eleven units were opened.

Total revenue increased $242,531, or 21.4%, for the three months ended March 31,
1996, to $1,522,403 compared to $1,134,342 for the same period last year.  Total
revenues, year to date, increased 16.7%, compared to the same nine month period
last year, to $4,402,083.

Managed retail operations increased during the period and account for the
majority of the revenue increase.  Management is striving to refranchise these
units and a resultant decline in revenues will be incurred in the next fiscal
year.  The revenues generated by managed retail operations increased $297,208,
or 95.6%, to $608,199, for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, compared to
$310,991 for the same quarter last year.  Revenue from managed restaurants for
the nine months, year to date, increased $751,249, or 69.1%, to $1,839,124 over
the same period last year.  The number of managed stores fluctuated between 12
to 13, in the current year, compared to 8 to 16 units last year.

Franchising revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 1996, decreased
($22,255), or (99.1%), over the same quarter last year to $203.  This activity
has brought the year to date franchising revenues to $68,403, for the nine
months ended March 31, 1996, compared to $157,161 last year.  This decline in
franchising activity is a direct result of restrictions on marketing resulting
from the cash flow limitations.  The restructuring of our term debt in the
fiscal period, just completed, will allow for increased effort in the franchise
marketing department.

Royalty revenues, for the three months, decreased ($41,435) or (8.2%), over the
same quarter last year, to $464,558.  Year to date royalties declined
($119,434), or (7.6%), at $1,443,587 compared to $1,563,021 for the same nine
months last year.

Revenue from supplier incentives, commissions and other increased $9,013, or
3.1%, to $303,913, for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, compared to $294,900
for the same quarter last year.  Overall, for the year to date, supplier
incentives, commissions and other revenues are $59,340, or 7.5%, at $850,737
compared to $791,397 for the same nine months of last fiscal year.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONT'D)

Total costs and expenses, for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, were $1,635,347
compared to $1,161,405 for the same period last year.  This is a net increase of
$473,942, or 40.8%, compared to the third quarter of last fiscal year.  Overall,
the total cost for the nine months ended March 31, 1996, were $4,513,168
compared to $3,547,572 for the same period last year.  This increase was
$965,576 or 27.2%.  The increase in cost is detailed as follows:

- -    The major contribution to the cost increase is associated with the managed
     retail units. Costs have increased proportionately with the increase in
     managed units.  The cost for the third quarter, ended March 31, 1996, were
     $607,853 compared to $348,791 for the same quarter last year.  The nine
     month period costs were $1,836,408 compared to $1,162,963 for the same nine
     months of last fiscal year.   This was a $673,445 increase, or 57.9% for
     the operation year to date.

- -    Franchising costs were $(12,639) less for the quarter and $(36,636) less in
     comparison to the same nine months last year.

- -    Head office expenses increased slightly in the quarter ended March 31, 1996
     and year to date, they have been held to a $28,017, or 2.5%, increase for
     the 9 months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the same nine months last
     fiscal year.

- -    Interest expense, for the three months ended March 31, 1996, was ($2,324),
     or (3.3%),  less than for the same quarter last year.  The year to date
     interest charges are $(14,201), or (7.0%), less than last year nine month
     charges.

WORKING CAPITAL

The working capital at the end of the period was $42,318 compared to a working
capital deficit of $1,184,327 at June 30, 1995.  This improvement of $1,226,645
in the working capital during the year was achieved through cash flow from
operations and negotiations with the Company's major lendors.

During the year the term debt owed to the Standard Chartered Bank was acquired
by a company owned by a group of private investors.  A person related to the
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company is associated with the
investor group.

Also the Company completed an agreement with the Royal Bank of Canada to
reschedule the payment of its debenture.  The debenture was due October 31,
1996.  The bank has agreed to reschedule the debt payments and accrued interest.

LIQUIDITY AND CASH FLOW

During the quarter the operating cash outflow was ($7,918) compared to an
outflow of $(492,346) for the same quarter of the last fiscal year.

On March 02, 1996, the Company arranged new banking facilities with the Bank of
Nova Scotia which provides for a $150,000.00 line of credit in conjunction with
a term loan granted by the Federal Business Development Bank of Canada of
$100,000.00.

These new facilities when combined with the restructure of payment terms with
the Royal Bank and the term loan of the private investor group has given the
Company a positive working capital which places the future of the Company in a
more stable financial position.  The Company has not paid all the principal or
interest payments due to the lenders since restructuring in October 1995.  The
lenders continue to support management in their endeavour to raise further
equity.

The Company's business development continues to be restricted by lack of working
capital.  Management is endeavouring to raise adequate new equity to provide the
funds necessary to increase marketing efforts.

To achieve this end Treats International Enterprises, Inc. and the President and
Chief Executive Officer of Treats International Enterprises, Inc., Mr. Paul J.
Gibson, and the Royal Bank Capital Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Royal Bank of Canada, have on April 25, 1996 entered into a "Buy/Sell" agreement
based on the following parameters:

The Royal Bank of Canada and the Royal Bank Capital Corporation have agreed to
provide Treats International Enterprises, Inc. with an option to acquire for
cash consideration:

     -    5,607,760 of the 7,207,760 Common Shares in Treats International
          Enterprises, Inc. it holds.
     -    5,409,825 (100%) of the non-voting series "A" Preference Shares it
          holds.
     -    A C$1.135 million Subordinated Debenture.

In the event this transaction closes, the number of issued and outstanding
Common Shares of the Company will reduce from 19,024,599 to 13,416,839.  The
holdings of the Royal Bank of Canada and the Royal Bank Capital Corporation in
Treats International Enterprises, Inc. will reduce from 37.9% to 11.9%.

In the event Treats International Enterprises, Inc. does not exercise its option
on or before June 24, 1996, the Royal Bank Capital Corporation has agreed to
acquire all of Mr. Paul J. Gibson and his immediate family's Common Share
holdings (6,196,348 Common Shares) in Treats International Enterprises, Inc.

               Nova Scotia.  The Bank of Nova Scotia has priority over all
               lenders but the Federal Business Development Bank loan is
               subordinate to the other term loans and debentures.
