THREE MONTH PERIOD

REVENUES

Revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 were $17.8 million, up
15% from $15.5 million for the comparable period last year, reflecting the
increase in U.S. assets under management.  Average U.S. net assets under
management for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 were $3,510 million
compared to $3,373 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 1999, an
increase of 4%, which caused management and administrative fees to increase by
$531,000 compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 1999.

Fees received for providing sub-advisory services to the Universal mutual
funds, sold in Canada and managed by MFC, increased $1,673,000, or 106%, as the
Universal mutual funds' average net assets under management for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2000 were $3,205 million compared to $1,341 million for
the three-month period ended March 31, 1999, an increase of 139%.

Distribution related fees decreased by $955,000, or 25%, compared to the
three-month period ended March 31, 1999, primarily due to the sale of the Class
B deferred selling commission asset in March 1999.  As a result of the sale,
the purchaser receives 12b-1 distribution fees and redemption fees on the
mutual fund shares represented by the Class B deferred selling commission asset
sold.  Consequently, there has been a decrease in the asset base on which the
Corporation collects distribution related fees.

Interest, dividends and other revenue for the three-month period ended March
31, 2000 increased $185,000, or 43%, compared to the three-month period ended
March 31, 1999, due to an increase in average cash balances primarily due to
cash received from the sale of the Class B deferred selling commission asset.

Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and net realized gain on marketable
securities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 increased $903,000,
or 276%, compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 1999, primarily due
to the Corporation's liquidation of its investment in Ivy European
Opportunities Fund.

EXPENSES

Expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 were $13.3 million, up
8% from $12.3 million for the comparable period last year.

General and administrative expenses have increased $1,513,000, or 33%, due to
an increase in staff size, primarily in sales and marketing, and an increase in
expenses incurred for computer programming and contracted services.

Reimbursement to the Funds for expenses increased $273,000, primarily due to an
increase in the number of funds for which the Corporation reimburses expenses.
The Corporation has brought seven new funds to market since March 1999.

12b-1 Service fees increased $168,000 due to the increase in average U.S.
assets under management.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2000, certain expenses decreased
when compared to the prior period last year.  The amortization of deferred
selling commissions decreased $765,000 as a result of the sale of the Class B
deferred selling commission asset.  Sub-advisory fees expense decreased
$135,000 due to a decrease in the net assets of Ivy International Fund, for
which a third party provides investment advisory services.

INCOME BEFORE TAXES for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 of
$4,488,000 increased by 42% as compared to $3,152,000 for the comparable period
last year.  After recording an income tax provision
<PAGE>   6
of $1,590,000, NET INCOME of $2,898,000 increased by $1,033,000 as compared to
the corresponding period last year.  Both BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
were $0.16 and $0.10 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.

SALES of the U.S. managed mutual funds for the three-month period ended March
31, 2000 increased 173% over the corresponding period last year ($380 million
versus $139 million).  This represents the best quarter for sales by the
Corporation since the quarter ended June 30, 1997.  These stronger sales can be
attributed to the increased interest in international investing, in addition to
the reopening of Ivy European Opportunities Fund.  For the three-month period
ended March 31, 2000, redemptions were $529 million.  Redemptions in Ivy
International Fund, which is closed to new investors, represented $390 million,
or 74%, of the total redemptions during this period.  Redemptions for the
corresponding period last year were $351 million.


TWELVE MONTH PERIOD

For the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2000, REVENUE decreased by 4% to
$63.5 million from $66.3 million largely attributable to: (1) the sale of the
Class B deferred selling commission asset; and (2) a decrease in average net
assets under management in the U.S., which were $3,391 million for the
twelve-month period ended March 31, 2000, as compared to $3,540 million for the
comparable period last year, or a 4% decrease.  EXPENSES for the twelve-month
period ended March 31, 2000 of $52.6 million were comparable to the
corresponding period last year.  NET INCOME decreased $2.1 million, or 25%, to
$6.4 million for the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2000 from $8.5 million
for the comparable period last year.  BOTH BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
were $0.34 for the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2000 as compared to
basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.45 and $0.44, respectively, for the
twelve-month period ended March 31, 1999.

GROSS SALES of the U.S. managed mutual funds were $764 million for the
twelve-month period ended March 31, 2000 as compared to $518 million for the
comparable period last year, an increase of 47%.  For the twelve-month period
ended March 31, 2000, redemptions were $1,271 million.  Redemptions in Ivy
International Fund represented $903 million, or 71%, of the total redemptions
during this period.  Redemptions for the corresponding period last year were
$1,041 million.


MUTUAL FUND ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT

Mutual fund net assets under management in the U.S. increased 5% to $3,512
million at March 31, 2000 from $3,331 million at March 31, 1999.  Assets
managed for MFC increased 145% to $3,516 million at March 31, 2000 from $1,437
million at March 31, 1999.


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Normal Course Issuer Bid

In June 1998, the Corporation entered into a normal course issuer bid, which
terminated in June 1999.  During the first quarter of fiscal year 2000, the
Corporation purchased 378,000 of its common shares at a total cost of
$1,593,386 under this normal course issuer bid.

In July 1999, the Corporation entered into another normal course issuer bid,
which was approved by the Toronto Stock Exchange, to purchase up to 941,610 of
its common shares, representing 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares
at the date of the notice.  From the July 1999 bid commencement date through
March 31, 2000, the Corporation purchased an additional 243,400 of its common
shares at a total cost of $867,504.  All shares were acquired at market price
at the time of acquisition.
<PAGE>   7

The Corporation believes that, at the dates of repurchase, its common shares
were undervalued at the then market prices based on its earnings, and that the
repurchase of common shares was an appropriate use of corporate funds and
should benefit shareholders.

Ivy International Fund

The Corporation has internalized the portfolio management of its largest fund,
Ivy International Fund, which has approximately $1.9 billion in assets.
Previously, the fund had been sub-advised by an unrelated third party.  The
sub-advisory agreement, which provided for payment of sub-advisory fees at the
rate of 0.60% of average daily net assets, will be terminated effective as of
May 27, 2000.  The Corporation will reopen the fund to new investors on or
about June 1, 2000.

Ivy Cundill Value Fund

On April 18, 2000, the Corporation launched the Ivy Cundill Value Fund.  The
fund is sub-advised by Peter Cundill & Associates.
