General Introduction
Inmark Enterprises, Inc., together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries,
Inmark Services, Inc. and North American Holding Corp. (collectively, the
"Company" or "Inmark"), is a marketing and sales promotion organization which
develops and implements customized, national, regional and local consumer and
trade promotion programs principally for Fortune 500 manufacturers. Inmark's
promotional programs are designed to enhance the value of its clients' budgeted
expenditures and achieve, in an objectively measurable way, its clients'
specific marketing and promotional objectives. The Company's programs in many
instances target the participation and cooperation of a specific retail chain or
groups of retailers or other sources of distribution to attain results in the
form of increased in-store product displays, related consumer purchases and
enhanced product brand name recognition.
The Company was initially formed under the laws of the State of Delaware in
March 1992 as Health Image Media, Inc. Its principal offices are located at One
Plaza Road, Greenvale, New York 11548, and its telephone number is 516-625-3500.
The Company began to engage in its current operations on September 29, 1995
upon consummation of its merger transaction (the "Merger") as a result of which
Inmark Services, Inc., a New York corporation, became a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company and the management of Inmark Services, Inc. became the executive
management of the Company. Previously, the Company had been engaged in unrelated
activities. See "Prior Activities".
Description of Business
General. Inmark is a marketing and sales promotion organization which
develops and implements customized, national, regional and local consumer and
trade promotion programs principally for Fortune 500 packaged goods
manufacturers. Inmark's promotional programs are designed to enhance the value
of its clients' budgeted expenditures and achieve, in an objective and
measurable way, its clients' specific marketing and promotional objectives.
Inmark's programs in many instances target the participation and cooperation of
a specific retail chain or group of retailers or other sources of distribution
(the "Trade") to attain results in the form of increased in-store product
display, related consumer purchases and enhanced product brand name recognition.
Inmark's services generally include: (a) assisting its clients in
identifying and defining specific objectives and advising on the deployment of
budgeted amounts to achieve its objective and maximize value; (b) developing the
concept and subsequently creating the consumer and trade promotional program and
(c) implementing turnkey programs, including providing documentation, program
manuals and artwork, training a client's marketing and sales staffs, buying
media and merchandise, designing in-store displays, commercial editing,
coordination and trafficing of media and total program administration.
- -2-
<PAGE>
Inmark combines the needs of its clients and those of their sales forces
and the needs of its clients' Trade outlets with Inmark's experience, techniques
and proprietary systems to provide solutions and measurable results. A typical
program will integrate numerous promotional techniques which take into
consideration a number of factors, including: (a) the channel of Trade on which
the client is focused and a determination of the most effective manner to obtain
distribution support for the client's product; (b) the means by which to best
educate the client's sales force in soliciting Trade support for the client's
products without creating excessive or burdensome administrative details; and
(c) the ultimate consumer of the client's products. Distinct from many promotion
and marketing companies which may have adopted a specific promotional program or
technique regardless of the product, Inmark's programs are tailored to the
client's particular goals and may include various components, including
promotional broadcast media, premium incentives to Trade employees and
representatives, in-store merchandising and sampling, commercial tagging,
specialty printing, licensing and point-of-purchase displays.
Industry Background. Packaged goods manufacturers typically employ two
separate but related marketing programs to sell their products. First they will
undertake a general advertising campaign, often engaging an advertising agency,
to create an image for their product and to communicate that image to the
consumer, typically employing television and radio as well as print media and
other forms of communication designed to generate brand recognition and product
awareness among consumers. Second, they will undertake a promotional advertising
program, often on a local or regional rather than national level, which may be
targeted to the retail trade or other point of consumer distribution to induce
the Trade to display and carry their products, and targeted to the consumer to
promote purchases and further increase brand name recognition. Promotion
advertising may include broadcast media and employ or integrate portions of the
image created through the general advertising campaign, but it will typically be
more "directed" to the point of purchase, employing techniques such as
couponing, sampling, incentives to the Trade, merchandising and licensing and
similar efforts.
According to Promo Magazine's 1996 Annual Report on the Promotion Industry,
the promotion industry grew by a healthy 6.7% as consumer and trade promotion
expenditures reached $200.3 billion during 1995, of which trade promotion
expenditures accounted for $130.3 billion, or 65% of the total, and consumer
promotion expenditures accounted for $70.0 billion, or 35% of the total.
According to the Annual Report, trends indicate a continuing increase in
in-store and local market directed promotions. Additionally, packaged goods
manufacturers continue to downsize their in-house marketing and promotion
personnel to reduce general and administrative expenses, and correspondingly
have increased their use of third party promotions businesses, such as Inmark,
to utilize cost effective, innovative and efficient promotional programs
maximizing budgeted expenditures.
Inmark's Programs. Inmark believes that it is well-positioned to meet the
increasing demands of consumer product manufacturers by offering a range of
customized, rather than "off the shelf", promotional programs, providing turnkey
implementation, and utilizing its creative development tools, sales support,
relationships with media outlets, promotional products, and administrative
services, supported with an innovative management information system, to gather,
monitor, track and report the implementation status of each program. Inmark's
ability to capture data regarding sales activity and Trade acceptance of a
particular program on a real time basis enables Inmark and its clients to
continually monitor and adjust the program to maximize its effectiveness. An
Inmark promotional program promotes a client's products on a uniform basis
nationwide or may be otherwise tailored for a particular regional or local
market for a specific product. A program, localized for specific markets or
products, can be coordinated with respect to both timing and expenditure, to run
simultaneously with individual and customized programs nationwide.
- -3-
<PAGE>
Inmark's promotional campaign strategies are typically implemented with the
use of one or more of the following promotional products:
o Promotional Radio - Broadcast time for traditional concept, image
and brand recognition advertising and as an incentive for Trade
participation. The value of broadcast time made available to the Trade for
its own discretionary use is a significant inducement for Trade
participation and support of a promotional program as it represents media
which the Trade would otherwise have to purchase. Trade participation for a
client often takes the form of tangible merchandising performance such as
additional display of a client's products within the Trade's stores, an
increase in the product inventory throughout the Trade's chain, a Trade's
coupon circular or solo-mailers referencing and promoting the client's
product, or the Trade permitting product sampling within one or more stores
in the chain.
o Promotional Television - Broadcast time, to achieve the objectives
similar to that of promotional radio, to create an incentive for Trade
participation. Added advertising value for the Trade in having a client's
television commercial edited and integrated by Inmark to include a specific
Trade customer's name, logo and feature activity in with the client's
television advertising provides an incentive similar to promotional radio
for Trade participation in the promotional program.
o Dealer Loaders - Awards, of various types and value, consisting of
merchandise, travel, entertainment and or other services, are offered to
the Trade in return for providing specific in-store merchandising on behalf
of a client's product.
o Trade/Account Specific Consumer Promotions - A full range of
consumer in-store promotional programs, integrated with Trade-directed
promotion programs, which are designed to increase consumer interest in a
client's products and increase brand name recognition, such as: (a)
merchandise giveaways in conjunction with product purchases; (b) vacation
and product sweepstakes (Inmark will design display materials, write the
rules, qualify the winners and arrange travel plans or product ordering);
(c) product sampling in one or more stores; and (d) traditional couponing.
Marketing Strategy. Inmark's marketing strategy is to offer its clients
creative promotional programs intended to produce objectively measurable results
while removing from clients the significant burden of administrative and
logistical details necessarily associated with such programs. This strategy has
focused, and in the future will continue to focus, toward clients in the
packaged goods industry, where ample opportunities continue to exist. However,
Inmark also has broadened its strategy and intends to offer its trade and
consumer promotion products to clients in other industries, such as financial
services, health care and transportation to name a few, which also are expected
to benefit from a comprehensive customized program on a turnkey implementation
basis.
Inmark believes that its strategy of attempting to provide comprehensive
solutions to its client's promotional advertising programs not only
distinguishes it from certain of its competitors, which provide only specific
promotional programs without the office and field support (an integral part of
Inmark Services' business) but also is more attuned to the client's needs,
particularly as clients seek to contract out all promotional advertising for a
specific product as a result of downsizing their in-house capabilities.
- -4-
<PAGE>
Inmark's sales and marketing activities are conducted by its direct sales
force of eleven people. Inmark's marketing and sales activities are directed
from Inmark's headquarters located in Greenvale, New York and additional sales
offices in Barrington, Illinois, Birmingham, Alabama, Bloomington, Minnesota,
Irvine and San Francisco, California, Phoenix, Arizona and Worcester,
Pennsylvania.
Customers. Inmark's principal clients are packaged goods manufacturers,
generally among the Fortune 500, which are actively engaged in promoting their
products to both the Trade and consumer. Inmark's clients include, among others,
Colgate-Palmolive Company, The Pillsbury Company, Coca-Cola Foods, CPC Specialty
Markets, CIBA Consumer Pharmaceuticals, Kikkoman International Inc. and Perrier
Group of America. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996,
Inmark had one client, Colgate-Palmolive Company, which accounted for
approximately 48.9% and 51.6%, respectively, of its revenues. For the fiscal
year ended March 31, 1995, Spar, Inmark's predecessor, had one client, The
Pillsbury Company, which accounted for approximately 55.9% of its revenues. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations of Inmark". Unlike traditional general advertising firms, which are
engaged as agents of record on behalf of packaged goods manufacturers,
promotional companies, including Inmark, typically are engaged on a
product-by-product, or project-by-project basis. Although Inmark's contracts
with its clients are executed on a project-by-project basis, the relationship of
Inmark and its predecessors with certain of their clients has continued for in
excess of 20 years.
Competition. The market for promotional services is highly competitive,
with hundreds of companies claiming to provide various services in the promotion
industry. In general, Inmark's competition is derived from two basic groups
(which market their services to packaged goods manufacturers): (a) other full
service promotion agencies and (b) companies which specialize in one specific
aspect or niche of a general promotional program. Other full service promotion
agencies may be a part of or affiliated with larger general advertising agencies
such as the Cato Johnson relationship with Young & Rubicam, Impact with Foote
Cone Belding and J. Brown/LMC with Grey Advertising, all of which have greater
financial and marketing resources available than Inmark. Niche competitors
include Don Jagoda, Inc., which specializes in sweepstakes; Act Media, Inc., a
subsidiary of Heritage Media, Inc., which specializes in a broad range of
in-store programs; and Catalina Marketing, Inc., which specializes in cash
register couponing programs. Certain of these niche companies may have greater
financial and marketing resources than those available to Inmark. Inmark
competes on the basis of the quality and the degree of comprehensive service
which it provides to its clients. There can be no assurance that Inmark will be
able to continue to compete successfully with existing or future industry
competitors.
Prior Activities
The Company was formed initially as Health Image Media, Inc. to publish and
distribute a free, controlled circulation magazine, Rx REMEDY, which was devoted
primarily to health, pharmacy and drug concerns with a focus directed to
consumers aged 55 and over. The inaugural issue of Rx REMEDY was launched during
July 1992, with additional issues published through April 1993.
In light of ongoing concerns expressed by the Board of Directors regarding
disappointing operating results and lower than anticipated advertising revenues,
as well as a determination to preserve the Company's then existing cash
resources, the Company ceased publication of the magazine in April
- -5-
<PAGE>
1993. On June 18, 1993, the Company assigned all of its assets relating to the
Company's magazine to KSP, Inc. ("KSP"), a corporation formed by certain of the
Company's then stockholders (including its then President and Chief Executive
Officer), in consideration for the transfer by KSP to the Company of
approximately 19% of the Company's then issued and outstanding Common Stock then
owned by KSP (which had been contributed to KSP by its stockholders) (the "KSP
Transaction"). As part of the KSP Transaction, KSP assumed all of the
liabilities of the Company relating to the magazine, and the Company paid
$656,735 in cash to KSP. Additionally, certain stockholders of the Company (all
of whom also were the stockholders of KSP, including the former executive
officers of the Company) and the Company executed mutual general releases, and
certain pending litigation was dismissed.
Following the KSP Transaction, the Company had no operating business and
its assets consisted principally of cash and marketable securities. During the
remainder of fiscal year 1994 and during fiscal year 1995 until the Merger in
September 1995, the Company's Board of Directors evaluated a number of potential
acquisition opportunities. In two instances, the Company executed letters of
intent; however, in both cases, negotiations were terminated by the Company
prior to execution of definitive agreements, principally as a result of certain
issues which had been raised in the course of the Company's due diligence
investigations. In another proposed transaction, the Company entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger with Rx Returns, Inc. ("Rx Returns"), pursuant to
which the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary would have merged into Rx Returns
and the Company would have issued shares of the Company's Common Stock to the Rx
Returns stockholders representing approximately 25% of the shares to be then
issued and outstanding. Rx Returns is a privately-held national return goods
service organization covering the pharmaceutical, over-the-counter and health
and beauty aid industries. On May 18, 1994, the Company terminated the merger
agreement on the basis of, among other things, a material adverse change in the
business of Rx Returns. Immediately following the termination by the Company, Rx
Returns also terminated the merger agreement. Thereafter, litigation was
instituted against the Company and its directors by Rx Returns and certain of
its stockholders as well as certain purported stockholders of the Company, in
connection with the terminated merger transaction. The Company also commenced
litigation in connection with a default by Rx Returns in repaying certain
indebtedness owed to the Company. See "Legal Proceedings."
Following the termination of the merger agreement with Rx Returns, the
Company continued to seek other potential acquisition opportunities. As a result
of its continuing investigation, on April 25, 1995, the Company entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (the "Merger Agreement")
with Inmark Services, Inc. and its three stockholders. On September 29, 1995
Inmark Services, Inc. was merged into a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company, InMark Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation, and the
stockholders of Inmark Services, Inc. received shares of Common Stock of the
Company constituting 26% of the Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately
following the Merger in exchange for their shares of Inmark Services, Inc.
Inmark Services, Inc. was a new corporation formed on February 11, 1995 to
acquire the assets and assume certain liabilities of SPAR Promotion & Marketing
Services, Inc. ("Spar"), a sales promotion and marketing firm, pursuant to a
management led buy-out by the Inmark stockholders which was consummated as of
April 3, 1995. As a result of the acquisition of Spar, Inmark Services, Inc.
succeeded to Spar's business which is the business in which the Company
currently is engaged. Following the Merger, InMark Acquisition Corp. changed its
name to Inmark Services, Inc. and the Company (formerly Health Image Media,
Inc.) changed its name to Inmark Enterprises, Inc.

Employees
The Company currently employs 37 persons, eleven of whom are engaged in
sales, sixteen in marketing support programs and program management and ten in
finance and administration. None of Company's employees is represented by a
labor organization and the Company considers the relationships with its
employees to be good.
Item 2. Properties.
Upon consummation of its Merger, the Company's principal offices were
relocated from 405 Park Avenue, New York, New York to approximately 5,500 sq.
ft. of leased office space at One Plaza Road, Greenvale, New York. The Company
also leases sales offices in office buildings for approximately 800 sq. ft. at
50 N. Ela Street, Barrington, Illinois 60010, approximately 900 sq. ft. at 870
Market Street, San Francisco, California 94102 and approximately 200 sq. ft at
One Park Plaza, Irvine, California 92614. Each of the Company's office leases is
short term and annually renewable with current annual rent fixed at
approximately $77,000, $12,000, $17,000 and $6,500 for Greenvale, New York,
Barrington, Illinois, San Francisco and Irvine, California, respectively.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
On November 8, 1994, the Company was served with a complaint filed in the
Court of Common Pleas in Berks County, Pennsylvania by Rx Returns, Inc., a
Pennsylvania corporation ("Rx Returns") and certain of its stockholders against
the Company, its then directors, including Robert F. Hussey and Courtlandt G.
Miller, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, North American Holding Corp., alleging,
among other things, that the Company had breached obligations owing the
plaintiffs in terminating the merger agreement with Rx Returns. The plaintiffs
were joined by three alleged stockholders of the Company, purportedly owning an
aggregate of 1,600 shares, alleging that the directors breached their fiduciary
duty to the Company's stockholders by terminating the merger agreement prior to
a vote of stockholders. The plaintiffs sought the Court to compel the Company to
call a special meeting of its stockholders to vote upon the merger and to pursue
the merger if so approved. On November 28, 1994, the Company filed preliminary
objections to the complaint.
On November 14, 1994, a $1,270,000 loan provided by the Company to Rx
Returns in connection with the proposed merger agreement became due and payable.
Rx Returns defaulted in payment of the amount due plus accrued interest and on
November 21, 1994, the Company entered judgment against Rx Returns in the
Federal District Court of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania placing a lien
against assets of Rx Returns. The Company notified the guarantors of the loan of
the default by Rx Returns and exercised its right to take possession of the
pledged shares constituting approximately 40% of the outstanding shares of Rx
Returns. The Company also informed Rx Returns that it intended to take
appropriate action to collect the loan, including, if necessary, causing a
liquidation of Rx Returns.
The foregoing was superseded when, on December 18, 1995, the Court of
Common Pleas of Berks County, Pennsylvania signed an order approving the
Company's settlement agreement with Rx Returns, certain of its stockholders and
certain stockholders of the Company. Under the settlement agreement Rx Returns
agreed to pay the Company $1,075,000 over a period of time in satisfaction of
- -7-
<PAGE>
the loan and to discontinue, with prejudice, all claims filed against the
Company, including the stockholder derivative claims. As part of the settlement,
the Company also received as collateral 30% of the outstanding capital stock of
Rx Returns which is redeemable by Rx Returns only after all amounts due the
Company in the settlement are paid. As a result of the settlement agreement, all
pending litigation against the Company and certain of its current and former
directors, including the derivative stockholder claims, and all pending
litigation brought by the Company against Rx Returns in Federal District Court
in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania was dismissed.
Except for repayment of approximately $200,000, Rx Returns has failed to
make the installment payments of its loan to the Company as required by the
settlement agreement and, therefore, is in default of the settlement agreement.
As a result of the default, the total payment due to the Company from Rx Returns
increased to $1,325,000. The Company has notified Rx Returns of the default and
the Company currently is considering its available remedies, including, but not
limited to exercising its rights as a secured creditor of the assets of Rx
Returns and exercising its rights against Rx Returns' guarantors and taking
possession of the shares of Rx Returns capital stock pledged by them as
collateral security of their guarantee obligations. There can be no assurance,
however, that any of these remedies will result in the Company being repaid in
full, or otherwise. In its financial statements, the Company carries the Rx
Return loan at a zero valuation.

Market Information
From the Company's initial public offering on October 20, 1992 until
September 28, 1994, the Company's Units, Common Stock, Class A Warrants and
Class B Warrants were traded in the over-the-counter market and included for
quotation on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market under the symbols RXRXU, RXRX, RXRXW and
RXRXZ, respectively. On September 28, 1994, the Company's securities were
delisted from the SmallCap Market for failure to meet certain qualification
criteria. From September 28, 1994, until December 17, 1996, the Company's
securities were traded over-the-counter on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. On
completion of the Company's Merger, the Company's name was changed to Inmark
Enterprises, Inc. and accordingly, as of October 19, 1995, the Company's Units,
Common Stock, Class A Warrants and Class B Warrants began trading over- the-
counter on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board under the symbols IMKEU, IMKE,
IMKEW and IMKEZ, respectively. As of December 17, 1996, the Company's Units,
Common Stock, Class A Warrants and Class B Warrants were approved for quotation
and trading on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market under the same symbols. The following
table sets forth for the periods indicated, through December 16, 1996, the high
and low bid prices and as of December 17, 1996 the high and low trade prices for
the Units, Common Stock, Class A Warrants and Class B Warrants as reported by

Item 6. Selected Financial Data.
The Merger on September 29, 1995 of Inmark Services, Inc. into a
newly-formed wholly- owned subsidiary of Health Image Media, Inc. was accounted
for as a reverse purchase of Health Image Media, Inc. by Inmark Services, Inc.,
and for financial accounting and reporting purposes, Inmark Services, Inc. is
treated as the acquirer. Accordingly, the selected financial data reported below
for periods prior to April 1, 1995 is that of Inmark Services, Inc. and its
predecessors. The financial statements of the Company and of Inmark Services,
Inc. are not comparable to those of Spar due to the application of purchase
accounting adjustments as a result of the management-led buyout of Spar.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
On September 29, 1995, the Company completed the Merger whereby Inmark
Services, Inc., a New York corporation, was merged with and into the Company's
wholly-owned subsidiary, InMark Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation.
Following the Merger, InMark Acquisition Corp. changed its name to Inmark
Services, Inc. and the Company changed its name from Health Image Media, Inc. to
Inmark Enterprises, Inc. Inmark Services, Inc. is the successor to SPAR
Promotion & Marketing Services, Inc. ("Spar"), a sales promotion and marketing
firm, as a result of a management led buyout of that company's net assets and
business on April 3, 1995.
The Merger has been accounted for as a reverse purchase of the Company by
Inmark Services, Inc. and, for financial accounting and reporting purposes,
Inmark Services, Inc. is treated as the acquirer of the Company. Accordingly
results of operations discussed below represent, for the year ended March 31,
1995, the operations of Spar; for the year ended March 31, 1996, solely the
operations of Inmark Services, Inc. until the September 29, 1995 acquisition of
Health Image Media, Inc. and thereafter the consolidated operations of the
Company and its subsidiaries; and for the year ended March 31, 1997, the
consolidated operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. The following
information should be read together with the consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto included elsewhere herein. The financial statements of the
Company and Inmark Services, Inc. are not comparable to those of Spar due to the
application of purchase accounting adjustments as a result of the management-led
buyout of Spar.
Results of Operations
Sales. The Company's sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1997
("Fiscal 1997") were $18,902,000, compared to sales of $14,646,000 for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1996 ("Fiscal 1996"), an increase of $4,256,000 or
29.1%. The increase in sales in Fiscal 1997 resulted primarily from an overall
increase in sales contract volume generated from larger contract amounts from
continued client relationships and contracts with new clients.
The Company's sales for Fiscal 1996 were $14,646,000, compared to Spar's
sales of $13,671,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995 ("Fiscal 1995"),
an increase of $975,000 or 7.1%. The increase in sales in Fiscal 1996 resulted
primarily from an overall increase in sales contracts in place.
For Fiscal 1997 and Fiscal 1996, the Company had one client which accounted
for approximately 48.9% and 51.6%, respectively, of the Company's sales and for
Fiscal 1995, Spar had another client which accounted for approximately 55.9% of
its sales. As a substantial portion of the Company's sales have been dependent
on one client or a limited concentration of clients, to the extent such
dependency is not otherwise overcome, significant fluctuations in revenues,
results of operations and liquidity could arise should such client or clients
reduce their budgets allocated to the Company's activities.
Direct Expenses. Direct expenses consist primarily of costs to purchase
media, program merchandise, production, merchandise warehousing and
distribution, third-party contract fulfillment and
- -11-
<PAGE>
other directly related program expenses. Direct expenses do not include salaries
and benefits of employees servicing or otherwise involved in the administration
of promotional programs or overhead expenses which could otherwise be allocated
to such programs. The Company's direct expenses for Fiscal 1997 were $12,610,000
or 66.7% of sales, compared to direct expenses for Fiscal 1996 which were
$10,149,000 or 69.3% of sales. The increase in the amount of direct expenses for
Fiscal 1997 principally relates to the increase in sales for the fiscal year,
whereas the decrease in direct expenses as a percentage of sales for Fiscal 1997
primarily resulted from client programs which in the aggregate have a higher
gross profit margin than the mix of programs contracted for in Fiscal 1996.
As a result of the changes in sales and direct expenses, the Company's
gross profit for Fiscal 1997 increased to $6,292,000 from $4,497,000 for Fiscal
1996 and, as a percentage of sales, gross profit increased to 33.3% in Fiscal
1997 compared to 30.7% in Fiscal 1996.
The Company's direct expenses for Fiscal 1996 were $10,149,000 or 69.3% of
sales, compared to the direct expenses of Spar for Fiscal 1995 which were
$9,218,000 or 67.4% sales. The increase in direct expenses was principally
related to the increase in sales in Fiscal 1996, whereas the increase in direct
expenses as a percentage of sales was principally the result of the mix of
client programs which, in the aggregate, had a lower gross profit margin than
the mix of client programs executed in the prior fiscal year.
As a result of the changes in sales and direct expenses, the Company's
gross profit for Fiscal 1996 increased to $4,497,000 from $4,453,000 during
Spar's Fiscal 1995 and, as a percentage of sales, gross profit decreased to
30.7% in Fiscal 1996 compared to 32.6% in Fiscal 1995.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for Fiscal 1997 increased by
$48,000, or 1.2% to $4,175,000 compared to $4,127,000 for Fiscal 1996. As a
percentage of sales, operating expenses for Fiscal 1997 were 22.1% compared to
28.2% for Fiscal 1996.
The increase in operating expenses for Fiscal 1997 resulted primarily from
the net effect of the following increases and offsetting decreases: increases of
approximately (i) $378,000 in salaries and related payroll taxes, which increase
is principally attributable to the employment of additional personnel and an
overall increase in base salaries; (ii) $170,000 in marketing and selling
expenses, inclusive of commissions, principally attributable to the increase in
sales volume and amounts budgeted for marketing and advertising; (iii) $65,000
in licensing fees required for license use in certain client programs; (iv)
$89,000 in employee benefits principally for the increased cost of employer
provided medical insurance and contribution to Company's 401K Retirement Plan;
and (iv) increase in various other expenses related to the overall increase in
level of operations; and decreases of approximately (i) $397,000 of
non-recurring merger and acquisition expenses and (ii) $361,000 of factoring
facility and administrative fees resulting from the significant reduction in use
of the factoring agreement facility.
Operating expenses for Fiscal 1996 increased by $951,000, or 29.9%, to
$4,127,000 compared to $3,177,000 for Fiscal 1995 of Spar. Operating expenses as
a percentage of sales for Fiscal 1996 were 28.2% compared to 23.2% for the
Fiscal 1995.
The increase in total operating expenses for Fiscal 1996 was principally
the result of the substantial increase in selling, general and administrative
expenses, which increase was primarily attributable to non-capitalized expenses
incurred in connection with the acquisition by Inmark Services,
- -12-
<PAGE>
Inc. of the business of Spar, the financing obtained both in connection with the
Spar acquisition and for ongoing operations, and the costs and expenses
associated with the Merger. Of the approximately $1,174,000 of such costs and
expenses, the Company, during Fiscal 1996 (i) amortized approximately $236,000
of deferred legal and accounting fees and costs incurred in connection with the
origination of the factoring agreement, (ii) incurred expenses of approximately
$430,000 for fees in connection with the factoring agreement, (iii) amortized
approximately $290,000 of goodwill, compared to $115,283 of goodwill amortized
during Fiscal 1995, and (iv) wrote off approximately $218,000 of legal and
accounting costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Spar acquisition
and the Merger.
Salaries, which include bonuses and incentive compensation, decreased by
$364,000 in Fiscal 1996 compared to Fiscal 1995. The Fiscal 1996 decrease was
primarily the result of a $816,000 decrease in management bonuses and incentive
compensation, offset by a $452,000 increase in base salaries. For Fiscal 1996,
there were no contracted management bonus arrangements in effect whereas for
Fiscal 1995, management bonuses amounted to $464,000. The increase in base
salaries principally relates to costs associated with an increase in personnel
and increased base salaries.
Other Income. For Fiscal 1997, the Company did not have any other income,
compared to $177,000 of other income for Fiscal 1996 which was primarily the
result of a $150,000 payment received from Rx Returns, Inc. in partial payment
of amounts due to the Company in connection with a court approved settlement of
legal proceedings. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to
receive additional payments from Rx Returns as set forth in the settlement
agreement and accordingly, the Company has not recorded any additional amounts
due from Rx Returns, Inc. Spar had no other income in Fiscal 1995.
Interest Income/Expense. For Fiscal 1997, the Company earned interest
income in excess of interest expense of approximately $13,000 compared to Fiscal
1996 when it incurred net interest expense of approximately $86,000. The
favorable change of approximately $99,000 is primarily the result of reduced
interest expense due to the reduction and final payment in Fiscal 1997 of the
Spar notes payable balances outstanding at the end of Fiscal 1996 and an
increase in interest income from the Company's short term cash equivalent
investments.
The Company's interest expense, net of interest income earned primarily on
a cash deposit securing the Company's obligations under its factoring agreement,
increased by $58,000 to $86,000 for Fiscal 1996 compared to Fiscal 1995. The
increase was the result of interest paid and accrued on the promissory notes
issued to Spar in connection with the Spar acquisition, compared to Spar's net
interest expense of $28,000 for Fiscal 1995, which was primarily the result of
interest paid on a Spar affiliated company loan.
Provision For Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for Fiscal 1997
reflects a net benefit of $160,000, the components of which consist of a net
provision ( after utilization of prior years' net operating loss carryforwards
as an offset against Federal taxable income for the year) for current Federal,
state and local taxes of $282,000, offset by $442,000 of deferred tax benefits,
arising principally from a reduction of the valuation allowance for deferred tax
assets as a result of management's belief that it is more likely than not that a
portion of such assets will be realized. The provision for income taxes for
Fiscal 1996 reflects a net benefit of $506,000, the components of which consist
of a net provision (after utilization of prior years' net operating loss
carryforwards as an offset against Federal taxable income for the year) for
current Federal, state and local taxes of $36,000, offset by $542,000
- -13-
<PAGE>
of deferred tax benefits, arising principally from a reduction of the valuation
allowance for deferred tax assets as a result of management's belief that it is
more likely than not that a portion of such assets will be realized. As of March
31, 1997, the Company has approximately $1,924,000 of net operating loss
carryovers available to reduce future taxable income. However, while such
carryovers will, upon utilization, reduce future income tax payments, they will
not significantly impact future tax expense, since substantially all of the
benefits of these carryovers have already been reflected in the Company's
financial statements as deferred tax assets. The provisions for income taxes for
Fiscal 1997 and 1996 are not comparable with Spar's provision for Fiscal 1995,
since Spar, as an S corporation, was not subject to Federal and most state
income taxes.
Net Income. As a result of the items discussed above, the Company's net
income for Fiscal 1997 was $2,290,000 compared to $968,000 for Fiscal 1996 and
Spar's net income of $1,229,000 for Fiscal 1995.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
The Company's operating activities and other commitments, until April 24,
1996, were funded with the sale of accounts receivable pursuant to a factoring
agreement described below and with net cash provided from operations.
Effective April 24, 1996, the Company entered into a one year factoring
agreement, which replaced its prior factoring agreement, pursuant to which the
Company could receive advances of up to 75% of those of its accounts receivable
which the Company, at its discretion, elected to sell to the factor. Total
advances could not exceed $2,000,000 at any given time during the term of the
factoring agreement. Subsequent to April 24, 1996, the Company's operating
activities did not require it to utilize the factoring agreement to receive
advances against its accounts receivable or otherwise incur any related
factoring agreement fees.
For Fiscal 1997, the Company's financial position continued to strengthen
with an increase of $1,012,000 in cash and cash equivalents.
Operating activities in Fiscal 1997 provided $841,000 in cash, principally
from net income of $2,290,000, offset by net non-cash adjustments of $106,000
and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1,343,000 primarily
attributable to an increase in accounts receivable and offsetting increase in
accrued costs. This compares to use of cash of $456,000 for operations in Fiscal
1996, principally as a result of net income of $968,000, offset by net non-cash
adjustments of $98,000 and by net changes in operating assets and liabilities of
$1,326,000, primarily attributable to decreases in accounts payable and accrued
compensation offset in part by increases in accrued job costs and other accrued
liabilities.
Investing activities for Fiscal 1997 provided net cash of $109,000 as the
result of the release to the Company of the $250,000 of restricted cash from the
factor and the use of $141,000 for the purchase of fixed assets. For Fiscal
1996, investing activities provided net cash of $366,000 as a result of $388,000
of cash provided from the reverse purchase of Health Image Media, Inc., and the
release of $250,000 of restricted cash from the factor, offset by cash payments
of acquisition costs of $202,000 related to the management buy-out of Spar and
by $70,000 for purchases of fixed assets.
- -14-
<PAGE>
For Fiscal 1997, financing activities provided net cash of $63,000 compared
to $790,000 for Fiscal 1996. The reduction in cash provided was the result of
(i) the Company's cash position reducing the need to sell accounts receivable
pursuant to the factoring agreement thereby resulting in a decrease of $579,000
in the amount due from factor for Fiscal 1997 compared to a decrease of
$1,712,000 for Fiscal 1996; (ii) receipt in Fiscal 1997 of $288,000 of proceeds
from the exercise of stock options compared to none for Fiscal 1996; (iii) the
repayment of notes payable to Spar of $750,000 in Fiscal 1997 compared to
$922,000 in Fiscal 1996; and the repurchase of stock for $54,000 in Fiscal 1997
compared to none for Fiscal 1996.
At March 31, 1997, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,713,000,
working capital of $1,860,000 and stockholders' equity of $4,537,000 compared to
cash and cash equivalents of $701,000, negative working capital of $846,000 and
stockholders' equity of $2,014,000 at March 31, 1996.
The Company's cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 1997, as well as
anticipated cash flows from operations, are expected to be sufficient to fund
planned future operating requirements. Otherwise, the Company will be required
to seek external financing, either through additional equity or debt financing.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such
additional funding, if required.

INMARK ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 1997 and 1996
(1) Organization and Nature of Business
Inmark Enterprises, Inc. (formerly Health Image Media, Inc.) (the
"Company") completed a merger on September 29, 1995 whereby Inmark Services,
Inc., a New York corporation, was merged with and into the Company's
newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary, InMark Acquisition Corp., a Delaware
corporation (the "Merger"). Following the Merger, InMark Acquisition Corp.
changed its name to Inmark Services, Inc. and Health Image Media, Inc. changed
its name to Inmark Enterprises, Inc.
At the time of the Merger, Health Image Media, Inc., which sold its
business in June 1993, no longer had an operating business and its assets
consisted of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash.
The Company is a marketing and sales promotional organization which
designs, develops and coordinates sales, marketing and promotional programs
primarily for consumer product client companies. The Company assists its clients
in realizing product recognition and sales by providing promotional programs at
both national and local levels, which are created to address identified trade,
sales and consumer needs.
Management-Led Buyout Transaction - April, 1995
Inmark Services, Inc. is the successor to SPAR Promotion & Marketing
Services, Inc. ("Spar") as a result of a management-led buyout transaction,
accounted for as a purchase, as of April 3, 1995 whereby Inmark Services, Inc.
acquired from Spar all of Spar's assets and business and assumed substantially
all of Spar's liabilities. The purchase price was $3,500,000, which consisted of
cash of $1,828,000 and subordinated notes totaling $1,672,000 consisting of (i)
a note in the principal amount of $1,000,000 payable on October 1, 1995 together
with interest at the rate of 7.5% per annum, (ii) a note in the principal amount
of $500,000 payable on October 1, 1996 together with interest at the rate of
7.5% per annum, and (iii) a note in the principal amount of $172,000 payable in
monthly installments of principal of $25,000 together with interest at the rate
of 1.5% above the Citibank quoted prime rate commencing May 1, 1995. At the
option of Inmark Services, Inc., payment of $250,000 of the principal amount of
the $1,000,000 note could be deferred until the maturity date of the $500,000
note, provided that there was an increase in the interest rate to 10% per annum
(see note 6). The cash portion of the purchase price was provided pursuant to a
$2,000,000 factoring agreement between Inmark Services, Inc. and Access Trade
Funding, Inc. The factoring agreement provided for the factor to purchase,
without recourse, substantially all of Inmark Services, Inc.'s existing accounts
receivable, and amounts to be invoiced by Inmark Services, Inc. for services
provided by Inmark Services, Inc. to its customers, and for the factor to
advance to Inmark Services, Inc. 75% of the face amount of such purchased
accounts receivable. Upon collection of the amounts due with respect to
purchased accounts receivable, and after application of such collected amounts
to reimburse the factor for amounts advanced to Inmark Services, Inc. and for
the payment of fees due the factor under the factoring agreement, the balance

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

collected was tendered to Inmark Services, Inc. in satisfaction of the purchase
price for the accounts receivable. The factoring agreement was for a fixed term
of one year and thereafter renewable for consecutive one year terms, and
provided for the factor to receive (i) an origination fee of $50,000 upon
execution of the factoring agreement, (ii) an administration fee payable monthly
in the amount of 1.5% of the accounts receivable purchased, subject to a minimum
fee of $225,000 for the year, and a facility fee payable monthly in the amount
of 1% of the outstanding facility balance for each month or portion thereof. The
performance obligations of Inmark Services, Inc. to the factor under the
factoring agreement were personally guaranteed by management of Inmark Services,
Inc. and further secured by the guarantees of the Company and its then two
directors at the time of origination of the factoring agreement. The guarantees
of the Company and its two directors were supported with and limited to cash
collateral pledged in the amounts of $500,000 provided by the Company and
$250,000 by each director, respectively. The Company paid a fee of $25,000 and
granted warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a
price of $1.07 per share to each of these two directors in connection with their
guarantees. As of March 31, 1996, $250,000 of the collateral amount pledged by
the Company and the $250,000 collateral pledged by each director had been
released and returned by the factor to the respective provider. The remaining
cash collateral of $250,000 was released and returned to the Company in Fiscal
1997.
The $2,805,475 excess of the purchase price in the management-led buyout
plus costs of acquisition over the fair value of assets acquired less
liabilities assumed has been classified as goodwill and is being amortized over
a ten year period. Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with the
factoring agreement in the amount of $231,171 were amortized over a one year
amortization period.
Proforma results of operations of Inmark Services, Inc. as if the
management-led buyout had occurred on April 1, 1994 are as follows:

INMARK ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 1997 and 1996
Merger with Health Image Media, Inc. - September, 1995
On September 29, 1995, the effective date of the Merger, the Company issued
to the Inmark Services, Inc. stockholders, in exchange for their 100% interest
in the common stock of Inmark Services, Inc., 677,106 shares of its common stock
and granted options to these stockholders to purchase an aggregate of 180,000
shares of its common stock at a price of $1.40 per share. The Company also
issued warrants to the Inmark Services, Inc. stockholders to purchase an
aggregate of 81,891 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $1.40 per
share, which warrants were granted based on the Inmark Services, Inc.
stockholders' waiver of a $163,783 management bonus which they were otherwise
entitled to receive. In addition, the Company granted options to purchase an
aggregate of 50,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $1.40 per share to
the employees of Inmark Services, Inc. The common stock issued in the Merger
represented 26% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company
immediately following the Merger, assuming that none of the Company's issued and
outstanding options or warrants immediately following the Merger were exercised.
The Merger has been accounted for as the issuance of common stock by Inmark
Enterprises, Inc. in exchange for the net assets (principally cash) of Health
Image Media, Inc. Accordingly, the net assets of Health Image Media, Inc.,
totaling $882,197, which consisted of cash of $387,780 and restricted cash of
$500,000 less minor liabilities, were recorded at their fair values. The net
assets of Inmark Services, Inc., including the pre-existing goodwill which arose
upon consummation of the management-led buyout transaction in April 1995, were
reflected at their book value (historical cost) and no additional goodwill was
recorded as a result of the Merger.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation
The Merger has been accounted for as a reverse purchase of the Company by
Inmark Services, Inc. and, for financial accounting and reporting purposes,
Inmark Services, Inc. is treated as the acquirer of the Company. No goodwill was
recognized in the Merger. The consolidated financial statements for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 1996 include the operations of Inmark Services, Inc. for
the full fiscal year and those of the Company for the post Merger six month
period ended March 31, 1996.
(b) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.

INMARK ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 1997 and 1996
(c) Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue upon billing in accordance with contract
terms, which in general provide for billing as services are rendered and
accepted. Costs associated with the fulfillment of the contracts are accrued and
recognized proportionately to the related revenue in order to ensure a matching
of revenue and expenses in the proper period.
(d) Cash Equivalents
Investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of
purchase are considered cash equivalents.
(e) Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment
Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is
computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, which are three to five years.
(f) Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets of
businesses acquired and is amortized over ten years on a straight-line basis.
The period of amortization of goodwill is evaluated at least annually to
determine whether events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful
lives. This evaluation considers, among other factors, expected cash flows and
profits of the business to which the goodwill relates. Based upon the periodic
analysis, goodwill is written down if it appears that future profits or cash
flows will be insufficient to recover such goodwill.
(g) Earnings Per Share
The computation of earnings per common and common equivalent share is based
upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year,
plus the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants, less the number of
treasury shares assumed to be purchased from the proceeds of such exercises
using the average market price of the Company's common stock for primary and the
period end market price for fully diluted earnings per share. The weighted
average number of common shares was computed assuming that only the 677,106
shares of the Company's common stock exchanged for the common stock of Inmark
Services, Inc. in the Merger were outstanding until September 29, 1995, after
which date the actual outstanding common stock of the Company was used in the
computation. Stock options and warrants have been excluded from the calculation
of the primary and fully diluted earnings per share in any period in which they
would be antidilutive.
- -24-
<PAGE>
(h) Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income
taxes under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date.
(i) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of financial instruments including cash and cash
equivalents, restricted cash, due from factor, interest and other receivables,
and notes and accounts payable approximate estimated market values due to short
maturities and interest rates that approximate current rates.
(j) Use of Estimates
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions
relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, to
prepare these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. Among the more significant estimates included in these
financial statements is the estimated valuation allowance reducing the Company's
deferred tax asset and the estimated costs to fulfill contracts. Actual results
could differ from these and other estimates.
(3) Due From Factor
The Company's factoring agreement prior to April 24, 1996 provided for
assignment by the Company of all of its trade accounts receivable, against which
the Company drew advances from time to time. On April 24, 1996, the Company
entered into a new one year factoring agreement pursuant to which the Company,
at its sole discretion, could assign and draw advances from assigned trade
accounts receivable. Subsequent to April 24, 1996, the Company did not factor
any of its accounts receivable or otherwise require or receive any advances from
the factor. Balances due from factor at March 31, 1996 consisted of:

(4) Note Receivable From Officer
The note receivable from officer consists of a $200,000 Promissory Note
dated January 10, 1996 issued to the Company by one of its officers in exchange
for a loan from the Company. The Promissory Note provides for interest at an
annual rate of 10% with the principal and accrued interest on the note payable
on January 10, 1998. The Promissory Note is secured by a Pledge Agreement which
provides the Company with collateral security consisting of a first lien and
security interest in 112,851 shares of the Company's common stock owned by the
officer.
(5) Leases
The Company leases office space and equipment pursuant to the terms of
operating leases, all of which expire during the year ending March 31, 1998 and

(i) Stock Options
Under the Company's 1992 Stock Option Plan (the Plan), employees of
the Company and its affiliates, and members of the Board of Directors, may
be granted options to purchase shares of common stock of the Company.
Options granted under the Plan may either be intended to qualify as
incentive stock options under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or may be
non-qualified options. Grants under the Plan are awarded by a committee of
the Board of Directors, and are exercisable over periods not exceeding ten
years from date of grant. The option price for incentive stock options
granted under the Plan must be at least 100% of the fair market value of
the shares on the date of grant, while the price for non-qualified options
granted to employees and employee directors is determined by the committee
of the Board of Directors.
The Plan was amended on September 29, 1995 to increase the maximum
number of shares of common stock for which options may be granted to
900,000 shares. Changes in options outstanding during each of the years
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, and options exercisable and shares reserved

$7.85 until October 20, 1997. Each Class B warrant entitles the holder to
purchase one share of the Company's common stock for $11.80 until October 20,

shares of the Company's common stock were returned to the Company and
50,000 shares of the Company's common stock which previously had been
issued on exercise of warrants at prices of $1.00 and $1.07 per share were
repurchased by the Company for $53,500, the aggregate amount of the
proceeds received by the Company when the 50,000 warrants were initially
exercised.
- -29-
<PAGE>
Prior to April 1, 1996, the Company accounted for its stock options and
warrants issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of Accounting
Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and related interpretations. As such, compensation expense would be
recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying
stock exceeded the exercise price. On April 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS
No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, which permits entities to
recognize as expense over the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based
awards on the date of grant. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 allows entities to
continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro forma net
income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for employee stock option
and warrant grants made in Fiscal 1996 and future years as if the
fair-value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. The Company
has elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion 25 in accounting
for its stock-based awards and, accordingly, no compensation cost has been
recognized for its stock options and warrants in the financial statements.
Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the
grant date for its stock options and warrants under SFAS No. 123, the Company's
net income and net income per share for fiscal 1997 and 1996 would have been
reduced by insignificant amounts for such years (substantially less than 1%).
However, such pro forma net income reflects only options and warrants granted in
fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1996. Therefore, the full impact of calculating
compensation cost for stock options and warrants under SFAS No. 123 is not
reflected in the pro forma net income amounts for fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1996
discussed above because compensation cost is reflected over the options' and
warrants' vesting periods of up to 10 years and compensation cost of options and
warrants granted prior to April 1, 1995 is not considered.
At March 31, 1997 and 1996, the per share weighted-average fair value of
stock options and warrants granted was $1.63 and $1.20, respectively on the date
of grant using the modified Black Scholes option-pricing model with the
following weighted-average assumptions: 1997 expected dividend yield 0%,
risk-free interest rate of 6.85%, expected volatility of 25%, and an expected
life of 6.91 years; 1996 - expected dividend yield 0%, risk-free interest rate
of 6.63%, expected volatility of 25%, and an expected life of 6.98 years.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers
whether it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of the deferred tax
assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is
dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in
which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the
scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income,
and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of
historical taxable income and projections of future taxable income over the
period for which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it
is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of
approximately $1,082,000 of these deductible differences and thus a valuation
allowance is not deemed necessary for this amount of deferred tax assets at
March 31, 1997. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance for the
remainder of its deferred tax assets.
The Company's net operating loss carryovers were generated by operations of
Health Image Media, Inc. in tax periods prior to the September 29, 1995 Merger.
A full valuation allowance for related deferred tax assets had been established
by Health Image Media, Inc., which was not reduced at the time of the Merger.
The decrease of approximately $550,000 in the valuation allowance from
March 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997 was attributable principally to a change in
management's judgment about the realizability of deferred tax assets in future
years and to utilization of a portion of the net operating loss carryforward to
offset taxable income for the year ended March 31, 1997.

INMARK ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 1997 and 1996
(9) Significant Customers
During the year ended March 31, 1997, revenues from two customers
represented 48.9% (the same customer as represented 51.6% in the prior year) and
17.7%, respectively, of total revenues, and during the year ended March 31,
1996, revenues from two customers represented 51.6% and 21.1%, respectively, of
total revenues.
(10) Employee Benefit Plan
During the year ended March 31, 1997, the Company adopted a savings plan
available to substantially all salaried employees and intended to qualify as a
deferred compensation plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code
(the "401(k) Plan"). Pursuant to the 401(k) Plan, employees may contribute up to
15% of their eligible compensation not in excess of $9,500 and the Company at
its sole discretion may from time to time make a discretionary matching
contribution as it deems advisable. For the year ended March 31, 1997, the
Company has charged approximately $32,000 to expense as a 100% matching employer
contribution.
(11) Commitments
(i) Employment Agreements
The Company has entered into four year employment agreements with three of
its officers which at March 31, 1997 provide for base salaries in the aggregate
amount of $660,000 per year and a covenant not to compete.
(ii) Factoring Agreement
On March 20, 1996, the Company, gave notice of termination of the factoring
agreement as of its initial anniversary date, and as of April 24, 1996, the
Company entered into a new one year factoring agreement which expired on April
24, 1997. The new agreement provided for the Company to pay a closing fee of
$25,000 to the factor and for the factor to provide the Company with a $2
million factoring facility which the Company at its option may utilize during
the term of the agreement. Should the Company elect to sell any of its
receivables to the factor, the Company will incur an administrative fee cost and
a facility fee cost on the same terms as set forth in its previous factoring
agreement, the terms of which are described in note 1 above.

(12) Contingent Asset
On December 18, 1995, the Court of Common Pleas of Berks County,
Pennsylvania signed an order approving the Company's settlement agreement with
Rx Returns, Inc., certain of its shareholders and certain shareholders of the
Company, under which Rx Returns, Inc. agreed to pay the Company $1,075,000 over
a period of time in satisfaction of the balance of a loan made in 1994 by Health
Image Media, Inc. and to discontinue, with prejudice, all claims filed against
the Company, including the shareholder derivative claims. As part of the
settlement, the Company also received as collateral 30% of the outstanding
capital stock of Rx Returns, Inc. which is redeemable by Rx Returns, Inc. only
after all amounts due the Company in the settlement are paid. As a result of the
settlement agreement, all pending litigation against the Company and certain of
its current and former directors, including the derivative shareholder claims,
and all pending litigation brought by the Company against Rx Returns, Inc. in
Federal District Court in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania has been
dismissed.
To date, Rx Returns, Inc. has repaid approximately $200,000 of its loan but
has otherwise failed to make the installment payments of its loan to the Company
as required by the settlement agreement and, therefore, is in default of the
settlement agreement thereby causing the total settlement amount to increase to
$1,325,000 . On January 30, 1996, the Company notified Rx Returns, Inc. of the
default and the Company currently is considering its available remedies,
including, but not limited to exercising its rights as a secured creditor of the
assets of Rx Returns, Inc. and exercising its rights against Rx Returns, Inc.'s
guarantors and taking possession of the shares of Rx Returns, Inc. capital stock
pledged by them as collateral security of their guarantee obligations. There can
be no assurance, however, that any of these remedies will result in the Company
being repaid. Accordingly, the entire balance due from Rx Returns, Inc. has been
fully reserved. Other income reflected in the statement of operations for the
year ended March 31, 1996 consists principally of amounts received from Rx
Returns, Inc. during the year.
(13) Recent Accounting Developments
In February 1997, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128,
"Earnings per Share" (SFAS No. 128), was issued. SFAS No. 128 simplifies the
standards for computing earnings per share as it replaces primary earnings per
share and fully diluted earnings per share with basic earnings per share and
diluted earnings per share, respectively. SFAS No. 128 is effective for
financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997 and
requires restatement of all prior period earnings per share presented. The
Company believes that adoption of SFAS No. 128 in fiscal 1998 will increase the
Company's reported earnings per share since the computation of basic earnings
per share will exclude outstanding stock options which were previously included
in the computation of primary earnings per share, while diluted earnings per
share will be approximately the same.
Effective April 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of". Statement 121 requires the
Company to estimate the future cash flows expected to result from the use and
eventual disposition of its furniture, fixtures and equipment and other long
lived assets, and if the sum of such cash flows is less than the carrying amount
of these assets, to recognize an impairment loss to the extent, if any, that the
carrying amount of the assets exceeds their fair values. The Company believes
that expected future cash flows derived from these assets will be at least equal
to their carrying values, and that no impairment loss was indicated.

(14) Subsequent Events
(i) Extension of Employment Agreements
On May 2, 1997, the Company extended the term of the existing
employment agreements with three of its officers until September 29, 2001.
(ii) Grant of Stock Options and Warrants
On May 1, 1997, the Company elected two new directors and granted
director stock options to purchase 5,500 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $5.00 to each director. On issue, fifty percent of the
options were immediately exercisable with the balance exercisable on the
first anniversary of the date of grant.
On May 1, 1997, concurrent with the Company entering into a financial
advisory services agreement with an investment banking firm with which a
new director is associated, the Company issued immediately exercisable
warrants to purchase 30,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an
exercise price of $5.00 to each of the new director and another associate
of the investment banking firm.
On May 2, 1997, the Company, pursuant to its 1992 Stock Option Plan,
granted to three of its officers incentive stock options to purchase up to
a total of 300,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per
share. The options to purchase the 300,000 shares of common stock are
exercisable in three equal installments commencing on the first, second and
third anniversary of the grant date.
On May 2, 1997, the Company, pursuant to its 1992 Stock Option Plan,
granted to its employees incentive stock options to purchase up to a total
of 10,800 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share.
The options become exercisable on the first anniversary of the grant date.
(iii) Officer Loan
On April 7, 1997, the Company, in exchange for a promissory note,
loaned $25,000 to an officer of the Company. The loan bears interest at an
annual rate of 10% and is payable in full, together with accrued interest
on April 7, 1999. An existing pledge agreement wherein 112,851 shares of
the Company's common stock owned by the officer have been pledged to secure
the officer's loan obligation has been amended to include such pledged
shares as security for the additional $25,000 loan.

sales promotional organization which designs, develops and coordinates sales,
marketing and promotional programs primarily for consumer product client
companies. The Company assists its clients in realizing product recognition and
sales by providing promotional programs at both national and local levels, which
are created to address identified trade, sales and consumer needs.
In April 1993, the Company, which was previously inactive, purchased the
assets and business and assumed certain liabilities of R.G. Meadows, Inc., a
company engaged in providing marketing and promotional services primarily to
consumer product client companies. The aggregate cash purchase price of
$370,841, including legal and other acquisition costs of $55,714, was allocated
to the net assets acquired which included office furniture and accounts
receivable. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair value of
the assets purchased has been recorded as goodwill.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue upon billing in accordance with contract
terms, which in general provide for billing as services are rendered and
accepted. Costs associated with the fulfillment of the contracts are accrued and
recognized proportionately to the related revenue in order to ensure a matching
of revenue and expenses in the proper period.
(b) Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment
Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is
computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, which are three to five years.
Equipment under capital lease is stated at the present value of minimum
lease payments at the inception of the lease and is amortized by the
straight-line method over the terms of the lease.
(c) Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the aggregate
fair value of the assets purchased and is being amortized over three years on a
straight-line basis.

March 31, 1995 and 1994
The Company also assumed an employment agreement with an executive dated
January 1, 1990 in conjunction with the acquisition discussed in note 1. This
agreement, which has an indefinite term, provides for a minimum base salary of
$115,000 per year. The agreement also provides to the executive as incentive
compensation a percentage of pre-tax profit of the Midwest office's operations,
based on a formula as set forth in the employment agreement and provides for a
covenant not-to-compete for the term of employment and for a period of one year
thereafter. No incentive compensation had been earned or paid as of March 31,
1994. The Company has paid $25,000 and accrued incentive compensation of
$359,250 for the year ended March 31, 1995.
(8) Subsequent Events
(a) Management Buyout
SPMS Acquisition Corp. (SPMS), a company newly formed by the Company's
management, purchased from the Company, as of April 3, 1995, all of its assets
and assumed substantially all of its liabilities for $1,828,000 in cash and
$1,672,000 in subordinated notes consisting of (i) a note in the principal
amount of $1,000,000 payable on October 1, 1995 together with interest at the
rate of 7.5% per annum, (ii) a note in the principal amount of $500,000 payable
on October 1, 1996 together with interest at the rate of 7.5% per annum and
(iii) a note in the principal amount of $172,000 payable in monthly installments
of principal of $25,000 together with interest at the rate of 1.5% above the
Citibank quoted prime rate commencing May 1, 1995. At the option of SPMS,
payment of $250,000 of the principal amount of the $1,000,000 note may be
deferred until the maturity date of the $500,000 note, provided that there is an
increase in the interest rate to 10% per annum. On May 2, 1995, SPMS Acquisition
Corp. legally changed its name to Inmark Services, Inc. (Inmark).
(b) Factoring Agreement
Of the $3,500,000 purchase price paid by SPMS to the Company, the cash
payment of $1,828,000 was provided pursuant to a $2,000,000 Factoring Agreement
dated April 24, 1995 by and between SPMS and Access Trade Funding, Inc. The
factoring agreement provides for Access to purchase, without recourse,
substantially all of SPMS accounts receivable and amounts invoiced by SPMS for
services provided by SPMS to its customers and for Access to advance to SPMS 75%
of the face amount of such purchased accounts receivable. Upon collection of the
amounts due with respect to purchased accounts receivable, and after application
of such collected amounts to reimburse Access for amounts advanced to SPMS and
for the payment of fees due Access under the factoring agreement, the balance
collected will be tendered to SPMS in satisfaction of the purchase price for the
accounts receivable. The factoring agreement is for a fixed term of one year and
may be renewed for consecutive one-year terms although SPMS has the right to
terminate the agreement

prior to the end of the initial one-year term upon payment of all outstanding
obligations then due Access under the agreement plus additional fees based on
the revenues of the Company for the remainder of the then current term of the
agreement, less any amounts paid with respect to the facility fee during the
current term of the agreement, but in no event less than $225,000. The factoring
agreement provides for Access to receive (i) an origination fee of $50,000 upon
execution of the factoring agreement, (ii) a facility fee payable monthly in the
amount of 1.5% of the accounts receivable purchased, subject to a minimum fee of
$225,000 for the year, and (iii) an administrative fee payable monthly in the
amount of 1% of the outstanding facility balance for each month or portion
thereof. The performance obligations of SPMS to Access under the factoring
agreement are personally guaranteed by SPMS management and further secured by
the guarantees of Health Image Media, Inc. and two of the directors of Health
Image Media, Inc. which are further supported with collateral in the amounts of
$500,000 provided by Health Image Media, Inc. and $250,000 by each director. The
guarantees provided by HIMI and its two directors are limited to the amount of
collateral pledged.
(c) Proposed Public Merger
On April 25, 1995, SPMS entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and
Plan of Reorganization with Health Image Media, Inc. (HIMI), whereby SPMS will
be merged into a wholly owned subsidiary of HIMI which will then be the
surviving corporation, subject to the approval of the HIMI stockholders. Upon
consummation of the merger, each share of common stock of SPMS will be exchanged
for 4,514.04 shares of HIMI's common stock, $.001 par value, or an aggregate of
677,106 shares, representing 26% of the outstanding shares of HIMI assuming no
exercise of options or warrants.
In addition to the shares to be issued in conjunction with the merger, HIMI
will grant to SPMS shareholders options to purchase an aggregate of 180,000
shares, and will reserve an additional 50,000 shares for issuance upon exercise
of options to be granted to other key employees following the effective time of
