                             REPORT OF THE AUDITORS
 
To the shareholders of J & J Securities Limited:
 
     We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of J & J
Securities Limited as of September 30, 1994 and 1995, and the related statements
of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the
three year period ended September 30, 1995. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards in the United Kingdom, which do not differ in any material respect
from auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of J & J Securities Limited as
of September 30, 1994 and September 30, 1995 and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for each of the three years ended September 30, 1995 in
conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

1. ORGANIZATION
 
     J & J Securities Limited ("J&J") is a UK based company, incorporated in
England in 1977, that originates and services mortgage loans for investment
purposes secured by residential properties. J&J conducts all its business in the
UK and lends on the basis of first and second mortgages on residential
properties.
 
2. UNAUDITED INFORMATION
 
     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a
fair presentation of the results for the interim period have been included.
Operating results for the six months ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1996.
 
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
     The financial statements have been prepared under and are in accordance
with generally accepted accounting procedures in the US. The following principal
accounting policies have been applied:
 
Mortgage loans held for investment, net
 
     Mortgage loans are stated at cost plus accrued interest income less any
provision for permanent diminution in value. Specific provisions for permanent
diminution in value are made by reference to doubtful loans which fail to meet
certain criteria. This includes management's estimate of the value of the
underlying collateral. Recovery of the carrying value of such loans is dependent
to a great extent on economic, operating and other conditions that may be beyond
J&J's control. In addition a general provision is made in respect of losses
which, although not specifically identified, are likely to exist in any
portfolio of loans of this type.
 
     Loans are placed on nonaccrual status on the occurrence of the criteria
referred to above. Loans may be reinstated to accrual status when, in the
opinion of management, the criteria are no longer applicable.
 
     SFAS No. 114 "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" as amended
by SFAS No. 118 "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan -- Income
Recognition and Disclosures" is effective for accounting periods beginning after
December 15, 1994. SFAS No. 114 addresses accounting by creditors for impairment
of a loan by specifying how allowances for credit losses for certain loans
should be determined. A loan is impaired when it is probable that the creditor
will be unable to collect all amounts in accordance with the contractual terms
of the loan agreement. As an expedient, impairment is measured based on the fair
value of the loan's collateral. The adoption of these standards had no material
impact on the financial statements.
 
Revenue recognition
 
     Mortgage loan interest accrues and is credited to the profit and loss
account on a monthly basis. Other interest, chargeable expenses and sundry
income are included on an accrual basis. All income derives from activities
within the United Kingdom.
 
Cash and cash equivalents
 
     Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and money market funds.
Such funds are deemed to be cash equivalents for purposes of the statements of
cash flows.

         NOTES FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
Equipment and vehicles, net
 
     Equipment and vehicles are stated at original cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is computed by using the straight-line method based
on the estimated lives of the depreciable assets.
 
     Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged directly to the
appropriate operating account at the time the expense is incurred. Expenditures
determined to represent additions are capitalized. Cost of assets sold or
retired and the related amounts of accumulated depreciation are eliminated from
the accounts in the year of sale or retirement. Any resulting profit or loss is
reflected in the statement of earnings.
 
Income taxes
 
     J&J accounted for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes." Under the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement and tax
reporting bases of existing assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax laws. Deferred tax liabilities and
assets are adjusted for the effect of a change in tax laws or rates.
 
     J&J has potential net operating losses (NOL's) carried forward against
which a valuation reserve has been fully provided at each balance sheet date as
future income tax benefit in respect of these NOL's is only available as a
consequence of future income sufficient to enable the benefit to be realized.
 
Estimates
 
     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 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.
 
Foreign currency translation
 
     J&J reflects the result of its operations in accordance with SFAS No. 52,
"Foreign Currency Translation." To the extent there are foreign currency
translation gains or losses, such gains or losses are considered unrealized and
are recorded as a separate component of stockholders' equity.

             UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
        
     The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data set forth below for the
Registrant (the "Company") for the year ended December 31, 1995 illustrate the
estimated effects of (i) the Company's purchase on September 30, 1995 of the 50%
of the capital stock of City Mortgage Corporation Limited ("CSC-UK") which was
not previously owned by the Company (the "UK Acquisition") as if such
acquisition had occurred on May 2, 1995, the date CSC-UK commenced operations,
and (ii) CSC-UK's acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of J&J Securities
Limited ("J&J") for L15.3 million ($23.3 million) and 548,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock valued at $9.8 million (the "J&J Acquisition") (including
the sale of $47.5 million of loans acquired as a result of such acquisition and
the corresponding reduction of debt of $32.4 million from the proceeds of such
sale) as if such acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 1995. The unaudited
pro forma consolidated financial data have been prepared using the purchase
method of accounting, whereby the total costs of the UK Acquisition and the J&J
Acquisition will be allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and
liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values at the effective
date of the UK Acquisition and J&J Acquisition, respectively. The unaudited pro
forma consolidated financial data do not purport to represent what the results
of operations or financial position of the Company would have actually been if
the UK Acquisition and the J&J Acquisition had in fact occurred on such dates or
to project the results of operations or financial position of the Company for
any future date or period. The historical financial data set forth below for the
Company for the year ended December 31, 1995 have been derived from the audited
consolidated financial statements of the Company. The historical financial data
set forth below for J&J for the 12 months ended December 31, 1995 have been
derived from the unaudited financial statements of J&J and have been prepared on
the same basis as J&J's audited financial statements and include all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, that the Company considers
necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for such period.

 (1) Reflects J&J historical operating results for the 12 months ended December
     31, 1995 excluding a $19.4 million extraordinary gain related to the early
     extinguishment of debt in November 1995. In April 1996, the Company
     acquired all of the outstanding stock of J&J in exchange for L15.3 million
     ($23.3 million based on the Noon Buying Rate on the date of such
     acquisition) in cash and 548,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock
     valued at $9.8 million based on the closing price of the Common Stock on
     the date of such acquisition less a discount for restriction on the resale
     of such stock. The J&J Acquisition was accounted for as a purchase
     transaction. The Company acquired assets with a fair value of $52.6 million
     consisting primarily of mortgage loans held for sale of $51.9 million and
     assumed liabilities with a fair value of $46.5 million. Additional fair
     market value of $21.8 million, representing the value of the mortgage
     servicing receivables, was assigned to the net assets acquired. The J&J
     Acquisition resulted in the recognition of $5.2 million of goodwill which
     is being amortized using the straight-line method over a life of ten years.

 (2) Represents the reduction of interest income resulting from the sale of
     mortgage loans held for sale of $47.5 million for J&J on January 1, 1995

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data set forth below for the
three months ended March 31, 1996 illustrate the estimated effects of the J&J
Acquisition (including the sale of $47.5 million of loans acquired as a result
of such acquisition and the corresponding reduction of debt of $32.4 million
from the proceeds of such sale) as if such acquisition had occurred as of
January 1, 1995. The results of operations of J&J are included in the Company's
historical results from April 23, 1996, the date of the acquisition. The
unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data have been prepared using the
purchase method of accounting, whereby the total costs of the J&J Acquisition
will be allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities
assumed based upon their respective fair values at the effective date of the J&J
Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data do not purport
to represent what the results of operations or financial position of the Company
would have actually been if the J&J Acquisition had in fact occurred on such
date or to project the results of operations or financial position of the
Company for any future date or period. The historical financial data set forth
below for the Company for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and for J&J for
the period beginning January 1, 1996 through the date of the acquisition by the
Company have been derived from the unaudited consolidated financial statements
of the Company and J&J and have been prepared on the same basis as the audited
consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting of
normal recurring accruals, that the Company considers necessary for a fair
presentation of the results of operations for such period.

    Rate on the date of such acquisition) in cash and 548,000 shares of the
    Company's Common Stock valued at $9.8 million based on the closing price of

    Additional fair market value of $21.8 million, representing the value of the
    mortgage servicing receivables, was assigned to the net assets acquired. The

    which is being amortized using the straight-line method over a life of ten
    years.
