                    NOTES CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           AS AT SEPTEMBER  30, 1997       
                              (CANADIAN DOLLARS)     

1.   BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

     These consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of the
     Company and its wholly - owned subsidiaries.  All intercompany transactions
     and balances have been eliminated in these consolidated financial
     statements, which include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries
     from the date of acquisition as follows:

     *    Accounting & Consulting Inc.
     *    Treats International Inc.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
     generally accepted  accounting principles in Canada (which also conform in
     all material respects with generally accepted accounting principles in the
     United States) and include the following significant accounting policies:

     ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     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 and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
     during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those
     estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically, and, as adjustments
     become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the period in which they
     become known.

     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 franchise store 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.

     contract over a period longer than twelve months, the Company recognizes
     revenue based on the assessment of collectibility.   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.

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

     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 (LOSS) PER SHARE
     Net earnings (loss) 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.

The calculation of fully diluted earnings per common 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 and is limited to the maximum authorized common stock
available. If all conversions (see note 9) had occurred, the Company would have
had to increase its maximum authorized common shares. Fully diluted earnings per
share are not presented as they are anti-dilutive.

13.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     FAIR VALUE

     The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, short-term notes receivable
     and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their fair value
     because of the short-term maturities of these items.

     The carrying amount of the long-term notes receivable, long-term
     subordinated debenture and term terms loans approximates their fair value
     because the interest rates approximate market rates.

     The fair values of the other long-term debt due to non-arm's length parties
     are not determinable, as these amounts are interest-free and due on demand,
     and, accordingly, cannot be ascertained with reference to similar debt with
     arm's length parties.

PART 1
Item 2
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

GENERAL
     The system-wide retail sales for the three months ended September 30, 1997
     were $5,894,000 compared to $6,627,000 a decrease of $733,000 or 11.1% for
     the same three month period last year. The sales decline can be attributed
     to the Company's decision to close down 24 locations during the past twelve
     months. Ten of these locations were in the Ottawa region. The Company had a
     contract to supply commissary baked goods to these locations through a
     relationship with a contract catering company. The catering company in
     question was sold to a company with a controlling interest in a direct
     competitor of Treats International Enterprises, Inc. and the Company
     elected to discontinue the relationship. The other units closed down were
     primarily non-performing locations or locations were the Company could not
     establish satisfactory lease terms with the landlord.

     66.3% to $1,069,000 from $643,000 for the same period last year.  The
     increase in expenses relate to the following:

          *    Cost associated with managed franchised stores
               increased $19,000 a direct result of the increase in the number
               of corporately managed stores.
