MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
GENERAL
The system-wide retail sales for the nine months ending March 31, 1997 were
$20,622,000 compared to $23,262,000 a decrease of $2,640,000 or 9.3% for
the same nine month period last year. The sales decline can be attributed
to a number of factors including the closure of fifteen locations in the
Ottawa region which the Company supplied cookies. These locations were
owned by one corporate entity which was sold to one of the Company's
competitors, the Company elected to discontinue the relationship.
Royalty Revenue only declined by 5.8% as detailed in "Results of
Operations", below.
Management is encouraged by the result of its overhead reduction
measures resulting in a Net Income for the quarter ended March 31,
1997 of $49,626 compared to a loss of ($112,887) for the same period
last fiscal year. Management anticipates that this trend will
continue in the fourth quarter of this fiscal year ending June 30,
1997.

QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1996.
Total revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 decreased $580,000 or
38.1% to $943,000 from $1,523,000 for the same period last year. The
decrease in revenue resulted primarily from:
* The sales of corporately managed stores decreased by $511,000 as
a result of management's decision to divest itself from most
corporately managed stores.
* Royalties decreased $44,000 or 9.4% to $421,000 compared to
$465,000 for the same period last year, primarily as a result of
the decline in system sales as noted in
"General " above.
* Supplier incentives decreased $5,000 or 1.8% to $254,000 compared
to $259,000 for the same period last year.
* Franchising increased $6,000 or 12.8% to 51,000 compared to
$45,000 for the same period last year.
* In the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 the Company commenced
purchasing certain proprietary products directly from
manufacturers and selling proprietary products to distributors
for distribution to the franchised and corporately managed
locations. Revenues from those sales were $120,000.
Expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 decreased $742,000 or 45.4%
to $893,000 from $1,635,000 for the same period last year. The decrease in
expenses relate to the following:
* Cost associated with managed franchised stores decreased $495,000
a direct result of the decrease in the number of corporately
managed stores.
* Head Office and Administration cost decreased $216,000 or 37.1%
to $366,000 from $582,000 for the same period last year. The
decreased in cost is a direct result of management's decision to
reduce corporate overheads. Management anticipates that the
decrease in Head Office and Administration will continue
throughout the 4th quarter.
* The cost of purchasing certain proprietary products for resale to
distributors, which commenced last fiscal year, was $101,000.

EXPENSES FOR THE QUARTER ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 (CONT'D)
* Interest expense decreased by $29,000 or 42.0% to $40,000 from
$69,000 last year. The decrease is a result of the difference
between a debenture held by Royal Bank of Canada and its fair
market value having been completely amortized.
* Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 was $50,000
compared to a loss of ($113,000) for the same period last year.
WORKING CAPITAL
The working capital deficit at the end of the period was $180,000 compared to a
working capital of $42,000 for the same period last year. This regression of
$222,000 in the working capital deficit was a result of management's decision to
capitalize some stores held for resale and depreciate them over the next 60
months.
LIQUIDITY AND CASH FLOW
During the quarter the operating cash flow was $42,655 compared to an outflow of
$(7,861) for the same quarter of the last fiscal year. This is the result of a
reduction in interest expense, an increase in depreciation and amortization and
a increase in non-cash operating working capital.
