NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by Rushmore
Financial Group, Inc. ("RFGI") without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although RFGI believes that the
disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading. In the opinion of management, the information furnished in the
condensed consolidated financial statements reflects all adjustments which are
ordinary in nature and necessary to present fairly RFGI's financial position,
results of operations and changes in financial position for such interim period.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with RFGI's financial
statements and the notes thereto as of December 31, 1997, included in RFGI's
annual report on Form 10KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 and 1998
Revenues
The following table sets forth the components of the Company's revenues for the
periods indicated:
Three Months Ended March 31,
1997 1998
------- -------
Insurance services $(33,200) $1,133,807
Investment services 531,521 545,479
Other 5,465 15,968
-------- ----------
Total revenues $503,786 $1,695,254
Total revenues increased 237% from $503,786 for the first quarter of 1997 to
$1,695,254 during the first quarter of 1998. The increase resulted from the
acquisition in full of Rushmore Life Insurance Company in April 1997. This
increase included $609,890 in insurance policy income representing Rushmore
Life's quota share of policy income under coinsurance agreements and $523,917 in
net investment income.
Expenses
Insurance Services expense components changed substantially due to the
consolidation of Rushmore Life beginning in April 1997. In the first quarter of
1997, insurance service expenses included only the loss of the Company's
minority ownership in Rushmore Life, accounted for on the equity method. The
first three months of 1997 included equity in subsidiary loss, whereas the first
three months of 1998 included the consolidated operations of Rushmore Life. The
consolidated operations of Rushmore Life include expense categories of benefits,
claims and losses, representing claims against policies coinsured by Rushmore
Life in the amount of $52,748, amortization of deferred acquisition costs of
$459,106 and other insurance company expenses of $308,974. Deferred acquisition
costs are recorded for purposes of generally accepted accounting principles as
an asset consisting of the commissions and other costs of underwriting a new
insurance policy and are amortized over the life of the policy. Such payments
are treated as an expense under statutory accounting principles applicable to
insurance companies, resulting in different earnings patterns. During the first
quarter of 1998 the average credited interest rates on outstanding universal
life policies was 7.42% as compared to 7.01% for the first quarter of 1997.

<PAGE>
Investment services expenses increased 13% from $525,625 to $595,823.
Commissions paid as a percentage of commission revenue decreased from 88.4% in
1997 to 87.7% in 1998. Direct overhead associated with investment services
increased 86% from $84,761 to $157,321. This was primarily due to increases in
staff that resulted in an increase in wages and benefits of $33,459 or 86%. The
addition of staff necessitated leasing additional office space resulting in an
increase in office rent of $22,593. In addition insurance expenses increased
$14,073 or 77% due to the net premium on an errors and omissions insurance
policy implemented in 1997 offset by increased collections from representatives
for their share of such premiums.
General and administrative expenses increased 101% from $76,233 to $152,933 due
to increases in staff and office space.
Operating income (loss)
The Company's operating income for the first quarter of 1998 of $117,670
represents an increase of $230,790 from the loss of $113,120 for the first
quarter of 1997. The Company's net income applicable to common shareholders for
the first quarter of 1998 increased $214,302 from a net loss of $144,243 or
$0.10 per share (basic and diluted) to $74,130 or $0.03 per share (basic and
diluted). The net income in 1998 as well as the net loss for 1997 included a
deduction of $4,071 for preferred dividends paid. In the first quarter of 1997,
insurance services expenses included only the loss (or income) of the Company's
minority ownership in Rushmore Life, accounted for on the equity method. The
first three months of 1997 included equity in subsidiary loss, whereas the first
three months of 1998 included the consolidated operations of Rushmore Life.
Rushmore Life reported net income of $188,852.
Subsequent event
In April 1998 the Company completed its initial public offering of common stock,
issuing 815,341 shares at a price of $5.50 per share for a total of $4,484,375.
After deduction of $477,571 in offering costs, $4,006,804 was remitted to the
company. Total costs of the offering are expected to be $904,844.
