NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business - Avalon Community Services, Inc. ("the Company" or
"Avalon") is an Oklahoma based corporation owning and operating private
correctional facilities. The Company specializes in privatized community
correctional facilities and intensive correctional programming. The Company
currently operates in Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri, and Nebraska with plans to
significantly expand into additional states throughout the Southwest. The
Company owns and operates three (3) community correctional facilities and
provides substance abuse treatment services in nine (9) prisons.
Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries after elimination
of all material intercompany balances and transactions.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of the consolidated financial statements
require the use of managements's estimates and assumptions in determining the
carrying values of certain assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and
the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual amounts could differ from those estimated.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share - Net income (loss) per common share is
calculated based on the weighted average number of common, and when dilutive,
common equivalent shares outstanding using the treasury stock method. There were
no differences between primary and fully diluted earnings per share for the
periods presented.
Interim Financial Statements - The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31,
1997 and the statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996
and 1997 are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, reflect all
adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position
as of such date and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods
then ended. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.
The financial statements included herein have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles and should be read in conjunction with
the December 31, 1996 Form 10-KSB filing. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year
ended December 31, 1997.

(Unaudited)
The Company completed a private placement of 1,000,000 shares of its common
stock and 1,000,000 Class C stock purchase warrants in August, 1994. In 1996,
377,000 Class C stock purchase warrants were exercised, leaving 723,000 Class C
stock purchase warrants outstanding. The Class C stock purchase warrants provide

stock and 100,000 Class C stock purchase warrants reserved for underwriters.
The Company adopted a stock option plan (the "Plan") in providing for the
issuance of 250,000 shares of common stock pursuant to both incentive stock
options, intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, and
options that do not qualify as incentive stock options ("non-statutory"). The
purpose of the Plan is to provide continuing incentives to the Company's
officers, key employees, members of the Board of Directors and consultants. The
options generally vest over a four or five year period with a ten year
expiration date. The Company amended its stock option plan in 1996, increasing
the number of shares available under the Plan to 600,000. Non-statutory options
providing for the issuance of 444,770 shares of common stock were outstanding at
March 31, 1997. The exercise prices range from $1.50 to $4.00 per share. During

Substance Abuse Treatment Services for the Missouri Department of Corrections at
the Ozark Correctional Center, a 650-bed medium security prison located in
Fordland, Missouri, to begin May 1, 1997. The Contract will increase revenues by

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's growth strategy is to expand the Company's services throughout
the Southwest. Management will devote its resources to expand and develop
community level corrections and to increase the number of corrections beds under
management.
Current liabilities were greater than current assets as of March 31, 1997, by
$421,000, primarily due to debt maturing in the first quarter 1998. The Company
is in the process of refinancing certain debt. Repayment of short term and long
term borrowings was approximately $740,000 with $1,269,000 additional borrowings
incurred. Approximately $488,000 was provided by financing activities in the
first quarter 1997, and approximately $637,000 was used for capital
expenditures. The Company's capital expenditures and net borrowings in 1997
consisted primarily of the acquisition of transportation and other equipment.
Revenues increased by 80% in the first quarter 1997 as compared to the first
quarter 1996, or from $660,000 to $1,191,000. The average compensated inmate
census increased from 226 in 1996 to 382 in 1997. The inmate census at Avalon
Correctional Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma, increased by 50% from the first quarter
1996 to the first quarter 1997. The inmate census at Avalon Correctional Center
increased by an additional 45% in May, 1997. The El Paso Intermediate Sanction
Facility is contracted for 100% of capacity. Additional cash flows from the
correctional centers will continue to be recognized as all facilities reach full
capacity.
The Company began Substance Abuse Treatment Services in Ozark Correctional
Center in Fordland, Missouri, on May 1, 1997. The Company will begin Substance
Abuse Treatment Services in Tipton, Missouri, in June, 1997. The two substance
abuse treatment program operations will increase revenues by approximately
$1,100,000 per year.
The Company is divesting itself of its interest in assisted living centers to
focus all resources on the community corrections industry. A contract to sell
the Assisted Living Center in Fort Collins, Colorado, has been signed and is
expected to close in June, 1997. A letter of intent has been signed to sell the
Assisted Living Center in Oklahoma City.
The Company believes it has sufficient cash reserves and ample cash flows from
operations to meet its current cash requirements. Additional sources of funding
may be required for future expansion. The Company will explore other sources of
funding such as additional bank borrowing or the sale of equity securities.
Additional funds may also be available through the exercise of Avalon's
outstanding stock purchase warrants. Management is unaware of any other evident
trends that are likely to result in material decreases in the liquidity of the
Company.

Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the three months ended March 31,
1996 -
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was $32,000 or $.01 per
share as compared to a net loss in 1997 of $34,000 or $.01 per share. The loss
in 1996 was primarily due to discontinued operations. The loss in 1997 was
primarily due to increased costs associated with the acquisition in August, 1996
of the El Paso Intermediate Sanction Facility.
Net income from continuing operations, before interest and income taxes,
increased by $54,000, from $68,000 in 1996 to $122,000 in 1997 or by 80%. Net
income from continuing operations, before interest, income taxes, and
depreciation and amortization expense, increased from $132,000 in 1996 to
$220,000 in 1997. The increase in 1997 was primarily due to the El Paso
Intermediate Sanction Facility and increased census at the Avalon Correctional
Center.
Net income from continuing operations, after interest and income taxes, was
approximately $2,000 in 1996 as compared to a net loss of approximately $31,000
in 1997. The decrease in 1997 was primarily due to a $89,000 increase in
interest, primarily attributable to the acquisition of the El Paso Intermediate
Sanction Facility.
Total revenues for the first quarter 1997 as compared to the first quarter
1996, increased by $531,000. Revenue was $1,191,000 in 1997 and $660,000 in 1996
for an increase of 80%. Operating expenses increased by $403,000. Both revenue
and operating expense increases were primarily due to an increase in the average
compensated census from 226 inmates in 1996 to 382 inmates in 1997 or an
increase of 69%. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of the El
Paso Intermediate Sanction Facility and increased census at the Avalon
Correctional Center. Substance abuse services began in correctional facilities
in Missouri during May, 1997, and will increase revenue and expenses by
approximately 20% per year.
General and administrative expenses increased by $40,000 in 1997 due primarily
to increased personnel. Interest expense increased approximately $89,000
primarily due to interest related to the acquisition of the El Paso Intermediate
Sanction Facility. Depreciation expense increased by $33,000 in 1997, as a
result of the acquisition of the El Paso Intermediate Sanction Facility.
