5. INVESTMENT IN TRANS LENDING CORPORATION
---------------------------------------
On December 23,1996, prior management of the Company signed a document to
acquire 500 shares of Trans Lending Corporation's ("Trans Lending") common stock
for $100,000 and 200 shares of Trans Lending's non-voting, non-dividend paying
preferred stock for $200,000. Trans Lending originates consumer automobile
financing transactions for non-prime borrowers by acquiring contracts from
franchised and independent car dealers. As of December 31, 1996, the Company

6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
-----------------
On January 9,1997, the Board of Directors voted to remove Arthur Goldberg as
Chief Executive Officer and Elie Housman as the President and elected M. Albert
Nissim as President. At the same meeting the Company voted to replace its legal
counsel. On January 13,1997, Mr. Goldberg and Mr. Housman resigned from the
Board of Directors.
The Company entered into a written agreement effective January 29, 1997 between
Leedan International Holding an indirect stockholder of the Company, and certain
other unaffiliated investors for a $4 million Private Placement of unregistered
and restricted common stock and convertible notes at a subscription price of
$1.00 per share of common stock and a conversion rate of one share of common
stock for each $1.00 of convertible notes. The Company anticipates that the
Private Placement will closed by the end of February 1997. Proceeds from the
Private Placement will be primarily utilized to fund mortgage warehouse lending
transactions.
On January 1,1997, United Mizrahi Bank, provider of the Company's primary bank
line of credit, merged with Safra National Bank of New York. On January 9,
1997, Safra Bank informed the Company that it would not renew Pioneer's line of
credit, however, it would consider temporary extensions until a new line is
secured. The Company is conducting ongoing discussions with several lending
institutions to secure additional credit facilities. With the infusion of $4
million by the end of February 1997, the Company expects to secure additional
financing.

<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
As of June 14, 1993, when the Company began its first active operations after
its emergence from Chapter 11, it had an available credit line of $1 million
from one source, United Mizrahi Bank & Trust Company ("UMB"). The Company's
lines of available credit were subsequently increased to an aggregate of $2.35
million as of March 31, 1995 and $4.2 million as of June 1996. Substantially all
of the business conducted by the Company during the years ended March 31, 1994
and 1995 was with one active mortgage banking company, who had a credit line
approved by the Company in the amount of $2 million. In April 1995, the Company
discontinued that customer's credit line when it failed to comply with the
Company's underwriting requirement to provide audited financial statements for
the year ended December 31, 1994. As a result of the death of the Company's
former Chairman and Chief Executive, the Company did not engage in any
substantial mortgage warehouse lending activities from April 1995 through August
1995. During the period from August 1995 through November 1995, the Company
developed customer relationships with three new mortgage banking companies, and
from August 1995 through March 1996, the Company generated approximately $20.4
million in mortgage warehouse lending volume from those new customers. During
the four month period September 1 through December 31, 1996, the Company added
three additional customers that generated $44.34 million in mortgage warehouse
lending volume, a 116.3% increase over the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the creditworthiness of several
other potential customers. Although the Company expects to conduct business in
the future with a greater number of mortgage banking customers, and thereby
reduce the risks attendant in relying upon a small number of sources to support
its business, no assurance can be given that it will receive such applications,
or that such applicants will thereafter engage in a large enough volume of
mortgage warehouse lending transactions to sustain the Company's operations.
The cessation of business of any of the Company's active customers or the
inability of its customers to provide the Company with an increased level of
loan volume could materially adversely affect the Company's ability to generate
sufficient revenues to operate profitably and to continue to meet its cash
obligations in future periods.
During the nine month periods December 31 1995 and 1996, the Company incurred
net losses of $ 359,565 and $570,288 respectively. Such losses were partly
attributed to noncash expenses (primarily depreciation, amortization and debt
discount expenses) totaling $139,706 and $118,360 during 1995 and 1996,
respectively, and the inability of the Company to generate a sufficient volume
of loan transactions with its customers.

<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NINE MONTH PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED WITH THE NINE MONTH PERIOD
ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996
REVENUES. During the nine month period ended December 31 1996 revenues
increased to $226,402 compared to $47,419 for the nine month period ended
December 31, 1995. Such revenue was generated from the three customers added
during the period August, 1995 through November, 1995, and three additional
customers were added between September 20, 1996 and December 24, 1996. 569,
loans totaling $44,336,000 were funded during this period which represented 183%
and 116.3%, respectively, of the total number of loans and fundings reported for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996. The interest and processing fee component
of such revenues reported for the nine months ended December 31 1996 amounted to
$177,660 and $48,742, respectively, compared to $35,826 in interest and $11,593
in processing fees for the nine months ended December 31 1995.
Due primarily to the death of the Company's former Chairman and Chief Executive
in March, 1995, the shrinkage, and ultimate cessation of mortgage lending
operations which took place during the first half of the fiscal year ended March
31, 1996 by reason thereof, and the restructuring of the Company's management
and operations which took place during that period, for the nine months ended
December 31, 1995, the Company only financed a total of 88 loans totaling
$8,543,840, in the weighted average principal amount of $97,089 for an average
duration of 17 days per borrowing. During the nine month period ended December
31, 1996, the Company financed a total of 569 loans totaling $44,336,228 in the
weighted average principal amounts of $77,920 for an average duration of 16 days
per borrowing, which amounts include 412 loans funded through bank borrowings
aggregating $33,352,067 in weighted average principal amounts of $80,952. Such
increase in loan activity was due to the Company's above mentioned addition of
six customers.
DIRECT COSTS. The Company's direct costs consist of the interest and other
charges which it must pay to its revolving credit line providers and the
interest which it paid to the lenders who had provided bridge financing to the
Company ("The Bridge Financing") in connection with the initial public offering
of securities which the Company completed in August 1996 (the "Offering").
During the nine month period ended December 31, 1995 and 1996, the Company's
interest expense and other bank charges paid to revolving line of credit
providers amounted to $43,820 and $181,604, Respectively. The increase in
interest expense and bank fees was due to the increase in loan funding
operations and the use of the Company's bank credit facility.
Interest expense on the bridge financing for the nine month period ended
December 31, 1995 and 1996 amounted to $20,988 and $4,885 respectively and debt
discount amortization of $46,277 and $37,500 respectively. In February, 1996
Company paid the sum of $122,492 in full satisfaction of its indebtedness to two
of the Bridge Finance lenders. Upon the closing of the public offering the
remaining Bridge Financing obligation of $128,356 (which includes $28,356 in
accrued interest) was retired in full.

<PAGE>
OPERATING EXPENSES. The Company's operating expenses of $319,530 during the
nine month period ended December 31, 1995 consisted primarily of depreciation
and amortization of $75,975, the primary component of which is the Collateral
Tracking System ($69,234); salaries and benefits to the Company's former
Chairman & Chief Executive and to its Senior Vice President ($107,877); legal
and accounting fees ($38,862); telephone ($14,383); office rent ($8,707);
temporary staff ($36,737) and miscellaneous expenses of $36,989. The Company's
operating expenses of $580,697 during the nine month period ended December 31,
1996 consisted primarily of depreciation and amortization of ($75,975); the
primary component of which is the Collateral Tracking System ($69,234); salary
and benefits to the Company's Chief Executive, its President, Its Senior Vice
President and office staff ($130,427); accounting and legal fees ($64,924):
telephone ($19,481); office rent ($11,128); Temporary staff, including the
services of an outside consultant for customer risk analysis, Dr. Teodore E.
Reingold, CPA, a professor of management and accounting ($41,651); costs due to
registration and IPO ($167,883 including, legal, public relations and printing
costs) and miscellaneous of ($69,228). The increase in such expenses during the
nine month period ended December 31, 1996 as comparable period during 1995, was
due to the increase in lending activity and the increased costs associated with
the professional, financial consulting and similar services which the Company
has incurred by reason of its change in status from a privately owned to a
publicly held company.
NET LOSS.
During the nine month period ended December 31, 1995 and 1996 the Company
incurred a net losses of $359,565 and $570,288, respectively. Such losses were
primarily due to the Company's inability during the former period, and its lack
of success following the completion of the Offering in August, 1996 during the
latter period, to attract additional warehouse loan lines of credit which it
needs in order to operate profitably. Expenses attributed to the registration
statement including printing costs. Such non-cash expenses as depreciation,
amortization and debt discount totaling $139,706 and $118,360 respectively, were
also contributing factors to such losses.
CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATIONS.
The Company generated negative cash flow from operations of $237,174 and
$807,973 for the nine month periods ended December 31,1995 and 1996,
respectively. The negative cash flow generated for the nine month period ended
December 31,1995 was primarily due to a net loss of $359,565 less non-cash
expenses of depreciation and amortization of $75,975. The negative cash flow
generated for the nine month period ended December 31,1996 was primarily due to
a net loss of $570,288 and decreases in prepaid expenses ($157,734) and other
assets ($283,202) less depreciation and amortization ($75,975) and increases in
accounts payable and accrued expenses ($122,235).
In order to operate profitably, the Company needs to increase its warehouse loan
lines of credit beyond its current level of $ 4 million. Accordingly,
immediately after the closing of its Offering in August, 1996, the Company began
to focus its efforts on acquiring such additional credit lines. In that regard
the Company has sought warehouse lending lines of credit from numerous financial
institutions. Several of such lenders have declined to extend credit to the
Company for a variety of reasons including but not limited to, the relatively
small size of the Company's asset and equity bases.

<PAGE>
REALIZABILITY OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS. Management has evaluated the realization of
its long-lived assets (primarily furniture and equipment and proprietary
computer software) having a net book value of $215,377 at December 31, 1996 in
accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 121 "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed of." Based on such evaluation and taking into consideration the
positive cash flows and earnings the Company believes it will be able to
generate in future periods, management does not believe that there is an
impairment of its long-lived assets at December 31, 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
On September 10, 1996 the company paid UMB a $40,000 renewal fee in connection
with the extension of the $4,000,000 credit facility, a pro-rata share of these
funds will be returned to the Company when the credit line ceases.
Management believes the addition of the $4 million Private Placement of
unregistered and restricted common stock and convertible notes will enable it to
obtain the warehouse lines of credit necessary for its growth.
The Company has been conducting ongoing discussions with several lending
institutions to secure additional bank lines of credit.
NET OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARDS
As of December 31, 1996, Pioneer had available, in aggregate, net operating loss
Carryforwards of approximately $2.8 million. As a result of changes in common
stock ownership, the Company is subject to annual limitations pertaining to the
use of such operating loss carryforwards. The Company expects that the amount of
net operating loss carryforward which may be utilized in any future period will
be limited to an amount not to exceed approximately $100,000 per year.
Management believes that the losses that it has incurred since the 1994 merger
of Pioneer Commercial Funding Corp, with the Company are not subject to these
limitations. The Company's ability to use such net operating loss carryforwards
is dependent upon its ability to generate taxable income in the future.

such expenses for the three month period ended December 31, 1996 are due to the

privately owned to a publicly held company have also negatively impacted net
