1. GENERAL
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same
basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of
management, contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary to fairly present the financial information included therein. The
December 31, 1994 Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial
statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted
accounting principles.
The Company suggests that this financial data be read in conjunction with the
audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 1994 included in the Company's 1994 Annual Report to the Securities
and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K. Results for the interim period presented
are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year.
"This amendment is being filed to reflect the presentation of American Business
Communications, Inc. as a continuing operation until the Third Quarter of 1996,
at which time the investment in this subsidiary was abandoned."

3. NET ASSETS OF BUSINESS TRANSFERRED UNDER CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENT
On June 1, 1995, the Company transferred substantially all of the assets
and liabilities of its wholly-owned subsidiary, American Business
Communications, Inc. ("ABC"), to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Baker
University. ABC provided continuing education programs and products to
small and medium-sized businesses. The Company received $3.0 million in
the form of a 7.52% non-recourse promissory note due in equal monthly
installments through 2005.
The impairment on the transfer of the net assets of ABC has been
accounted for in accordance with the Securities and Exchange
Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin Topics 5-E and 5-Z. Revenues of
ABC were $2,929 from January 1, 1995 through the date of sale.
4. STOCK SPLIT
On July 18, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors declared a
three-for-two stock split of the Company's common shares, effected in
the form of a stock dividend, which was paid on August 14, 1995 to
shareholders of record as of the close of business on July 31, 1995.
All presentations of shares outstanding and amounts per share have been
restated to reflect the stock split.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued
Net Sales
- ---------
Net sales increased 10% to $21.5 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1995 from $19.5 million in the third quarter of 1994. For
the nine month period ended September 30, 1995, net sales were $66.3
million, a 19% increase from $55.8 million in the comparable period in
1994.
Revenues in the third quarter from the Company's existing products and
services increased 20% (or $3.5 million) and 2% (or $400,000) was
attributable to Zeller & Letica (Z&L) which was acquired August 17,
1994. Revenues for the nine month period ended September 30, 1995 from
the Company's existing products and services represented 19% of the
increase (or $9.6 million) and 6% (or $2.9 million) was attributable to
Z&L and BMI Medical Information, Inc. (BMI) which was effective March
29, 1994.
The Company's net sales on a quarterly basis can be affected by seasonal
characteristics, the timing of acquisitions, and certain other factors
including the timing and extent of the Company's own direct marketing
activity. There have been no significant price increases for the
majority of the Company's existing products and services during the
period.
Database and Production Costs
- -----------------------------
Database and production costs for the third quarter of 1995 were $6.1
million, or 28% of net sales, compared to $5.4 million, or 28% of net
sales, in the prior year quarter. For the nine months ended September
30, 1995, these costs were $18.1 million, or 27% of net sales, compared
to $15.0 million, or 27% of net sales in the comparable prior year
period.
The Company expects these costs, when expressed as a percentage of net
sales, to approximate its current level for the remainder of the year.
Selling, General, and Administrative
- ------------------------------------
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of
1995 were $8.4 million, or 39% of net sales, compared to $8.3 million,
or 43% of net sales, in the prior year quarter. For the nine month
period, these costs were $27.3 million, or 41% of net sales, compared to
$24.5 million, or 44% in the comparable 1994 period. In 1994, the
Company incurred costs to expand its markets, incurred marketing
expenses related to new products, and continued development of the field
sales force and introduced the credit predictability code on its
products which resulted in these costs being higher as a percentage of
net sales than the Company has historically incurred.

<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued
Depreciation and Amortization
- -----------------------------
Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended
September 30, 1995 decreased to $796,000 from $819,000 in the comparable
1994 period. These costs during the nine month period of 1995 were $2.4
million, equal to $2.4 million in the comparable 1994 period.
Operating Income
- ----------------
Operating income for the third quarter of 1995 was $6.2 million, or 29%
of net sales, compared to $5.0 million, or 25% of net sales in the third
quarter of 1994. For the nine month period of 1995, operating income
increased to $15.9 million, or 24% of net sales, from $13.8 million, or
25% of net sales in 1994.
Other Income
- ------------
Net investment income for the 1995 third quarter was $334,000 compared
to $222,000 in the same quarter of 1994. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, net investment income was $739,000 compared to
$638,000 in the prior year period. The increase in 1995 is attributable
to the increase in cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities.
The Company recognized net realized losses of $270,000 on the sale of
marketable securities in the first nine months of 1995.
Provision for Income Taxes
- --------------------------
A provision for income taxes has been recorded on the Company's 1995
earnings at a combined effective federal and state tax rate of 37%,
compared to the 1994 combined effective rate of 35%.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 1995, the Company's principal sources of liquidity
included cash and cash equivalents of $10.5 million and short term
investments of $24.1 million. Management repaid a $1.0 million real
estate loan on July 28, 1995. The Company has a revolving line of
credit totaling $5.0 million, which had no outstanding balance at
September 30, 1995.
The Company anticipates spending up to $2.8 million annually in the next
three years on additions to equipment, primarily data processing
equipment, which is expected to be financed either through bank
financing with terms generally from three to four years or cash provided
by operating activities.
The Company believes that cash flows from operations, its cash and short
term investments, and its borrowing facilities will be sufficient to
fund its operations for at least the next twelve months. However, if the
Company acquires additional companies or products, additional financing
may be required.
