                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   [Unaudited]


[1] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of  Presentation  - The  accompanying  interim  financial  statements  are
unaudited  and  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with the  requirements  of
Regulation S-X and Form 10-Q and, therefore,  do not include all information and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial statements.  However, in the opinion of the management of the Company,
all adjustments  consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a
fair  presentation of financial  position,  results of operations and cash flows
for the three month  periods  ended June 30,  1997 and 1996 have been made.  The
results of operations for any interim period are not  necessarily  indicative of
the  results for the full year.  These  financial  statements  should be read in
conjunction  with the financial  statements  and notes thereto  contained in the
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1997.

Plant and Equipment  and  Depreciation  - The  Company's  plant and equipment is
shown net of  accumulated  depreciation  of $1,904,929 as of June 30, 1997,  and
$1,776,700 as of March 31, 1997.

[2] Net Loss Per Share

Net loss per share was calculated based on the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the periods.  Neither the 292,396 shares held in Treasury nor
the 750,000 shares held in escrow  pursuant to an escrow  agreement  between the
founding stockholders and the Company have been included in the weighted average
shares  outstanding  during the year as their inclusion would be  anti-dilutive.
The effect of  outstanding  stock  warrants  and options was not included in the
calculations as their effect would also be anti-dilutive.

[3] Notes Payable

A note payable of $48,000 is due to a former financial consultant to the Company
pursuant  to  a  settlement  agreement  dated  August  17,  1994.  The  note  is
non-interest bearing and payment is subject to availability of future cash flows
from the Company's operations.

[4] Going Concern

The Company commenced commercial operations on May 24, 1993 and as of August 12,
1997 the Company has been  unsuccessful in generating net cash from  operations.
The net cash used by the  Company in  operating  activities  in the three  month
period  ended June 30, 1997 was  $102,014.  The  Company  incurred a net loss of
$210,136  for the  three  month  period  ended  June 30,  1997 and has a working
capital deficit as of June 30, 1997 of $600,724.

The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been  prepared on a going concern
basis which  contemplates  the  realization  of assets and the  satisfaction  of
liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  The  continuation
of the Company as a going concern is dependent  upon its ability to generate net
cash from operations.  The Company's  recurring operating losses and net working
capital  deficiency  raises  substantial  doubt  about the  entity's  ability to
continue as a going concern.

Management's  plans  include  increasing  revenues  from the Irvine  Studio or a
reconfiguration  of the site into a smaller  Studio,  or  closing  the Studio to
reduce the negative cash flow which the Studio has been  generating.  Given that
the Company has not met either of the criteria for renewal of the Irvine  Studio
lease,  management cannot state with certainty that the seven year option period
will be exercised.

Management is also  continuing the reduction of expenses  throughout the Company
and is seeking to obtain  additional  equity or debt financing.  There can be no
assurance  that  management  will be successful in these  endeavors and if it is
not, the Company will be dependent on the  willingness  and ability of the major
stockholder,  Photo  Corporation  Group Pty Ltd ("PCG"),  to continue to provide
additional  financing.  No assurance can be given that such additional financing
will be provided.

Leah Peterson  Shelton,  Vice President  Operations,  ceased employment with the
Company  and Mr.  Shelton  also  ceased as a director  of the  Company  from and

Deferred  salaries  owing to Mr.  Shelton  and Mrs.  Peterson  Shelton,  accrued
interest on  deferred  salaries,  accrued  vacation  pay and amounts  payable on
termination  totaling  $274,373 are being paid over the period through April 17,
1998. The  outstanding  liability as of June 30, 1997 of $91,339 is presented on

secured by the  assets of the  Company  pursuant  to the  Settlement  and Mutual
Release  Agreement as of September 1, 1996,  between the Company,  Mr.  Shelton,
Mrs. Peterson Shelton and PCG. Interest expense is incurred at the prime rate of
interest  (approximately  8.5%) and in the three months ended June 30, 1997, was

The Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement inter alia provides for Mr. Shelton 
and Mrs. Peterson Shelton to act as consultants to the Company as requested by 
the Company and as agreed to by them.

The amount Due to Related Party of $315,500  ($260,500 as of March 31, 1997) was

the business and to fund the payments due to former officers of the Company. The
amount  Due to Related  Party is  unsecured  and is payable on demand.  Interest
expense  is charged  at a rate of 10% per annum and for the three  months  ended
June 30, 1997, was $7,331. As of June 30, 1997, interest of $15,202 was accrued.

The amount Due from Related Party  represents  monies advanced by the Company on
behalf of Photo  Corporation of Australia Pty Limited  ("PCA"),  a subsidiary of
PCG.

The weighted  average interest rate on short term borrowings as of June 30, 1997
was approximately 10%.



[6] Subsequent Events

$70,000 of cash to assist the Company in funding its day to day  operations  and
to enable the Company to make the required  payments  due to former  officers of
the Company.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
               RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



The  following  discussion  should be read in  conjunction  with the  historical
financial  statements  of  Out-Takes  Inc.  ("the  Company")  and notes  thereto
included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.


Overview


The Company currently operates two photographic  portrait studios,  the first of
which was opened on May 24, 1993 at the MCA/Universal  CityWalkSM project in Los
Angeles,  California  ("the  CityWalk  Studio").  The  second  studio  opened on
December  9, 1995 at The  Entertainment  Center at Irvine  Spectrum  located  in
Irvine,  Orange County,  California ("the Irvine  Studio").  The following table
summarizes the Company's results for the three month periods ended June 30, 1997
and June 30, 1996.

                                                 Three months ended June 30,

                                                     1997           1996
                                                     ----           ----


Gross Sales Revenue                             $ 333,149         $ 468,187

Gross (Loss) / Income                             (72,279)           18,425

Net Loss for the Period                          (210,136)         (204,568)

Net Loss Per Share                                 ($0.01)           ($0.02)

Closing Bid Price per Share
  of Common Stock                               $    0.06         $    0.22


As noted in the table presented above, the Company continues to operate at a net
loss. This is  predominantly  due to the poor  performance of the Irvine Studio.
Management  is  focusing  on  improving  revenues  from  the  Irvine  Studio  by
developing  a  marketing  program  to  attract  more  customers  and  creating a
background  image  portfolio  that is more  suitable for the market in which the
Irvine Studio is located. There is no assurance that this program for the Irvine
Studio  will be  successful  and  accordingly,  the  Company  will  continue  to
implement  overhead  reductions to improve the Company's  operating  margins and
reduce the cash outflow from operations.

Having regard to the length of time that the Irvine Studio has now been open and
the poor performance of the Studio, notwithstanding the substantial efforts that
have  been  made  to  improve  the  performance  of the  Studio,  management  is
considering the  reconfiguration of the Studio to a smaller size, or the closure
of the Studio to reduce the negative  cash flow effect of the Studio  continuing
to operate.

The  Company's  short term  objectives  are to increase  revenue from the Irvine
Studio,  source  opportunities  and venues for the  utilization of the Traveling
Studio,  continue  the  reduction  of  expenses  and raise  capital  for opening
additional studios.

Notwithstanding,   net  losses   (which   include   depreciation   expenses   of
approximately  $100,000 per  quarter) are expected to continue  unless and until
the Company opens additional studios or the revenue stream from the two existing
studios, especially the Irvine studio, increases substantially.

To assist the  Company in funding  its day to day  operations  and to enable the
Company  to make the  payments  due to former  officers  of the  Company,  Photo
Corporation Group Pty Limited ("PCG") provided the Company with $125,000 of cash
during  the period  April 1, 1997 to August 12,  1997.  In  addition,  effective
December 1, 1996, PCG agreed not to charge management fees for services provided
by it or its related parties pursuant to the Personnel Consulting Agreement with
the Company dated June 28, 1995, for a period of two years.

In the fiscal  quarter ended June 30, 1997,  the Company  generated  $333,149 in
revenues,  compared to revenues of $468,187  during the same period last year, a
net decrease of $135,038.

CityWalk  Studio revenues  decreased by $86,181 to $247,116,  a decrease of 26%.
Management  attributes this decline to a number of factors including the opening
of additional digital photographic concessions within the theme park adjacent to
the CityWalk  Studio in spring 1997. The Company's  lease contains a restriction
that  prevents the sale of computer  generated  photographs  by any other stores
within  CityWalk  during the  Company's  initial  lease term.  This  affords the
Company limited  protection from competition,  however this restriction does not
apply to  photography  products  offered  within the theme park.  The opening of
additional  photographic  concessions  within the theme park has  increased  the
number of photographic  opportunities  available to visitors to the area and has
diluted the CityWalk Studio's share of the market. Management also believes that
the  Studio's  performance  is directly  affected  by the level of foot  traffic
through the theme park, which has a flow on effect into the Studio. In May 1996,
a new "ride" opened in the theme park,  which management  believes  attracted an
increased  number  of both  new and  repeat  visitors  to the  area.  Management
perceives that the absence of a significant new attraction in the  corresponding
quarter  this  year,  has  resulted  in a decline  in the level of foot  traffic
through the Studio.  Also,  in the first part of  calendar  1996,  a travel show
broadcast on national  television in Japan,  included an episode on  "Hollywood"
which featured the CityWalk Studio.  Throughout the quarter ended June 30, 1996,
an  unusually  high  number of  Japanese  tourists,  who had seen the segment on
television in Japan,  visited the CityWalk Studio. There was no similar national
television broadcast in the quarter ended June 30, 1997. Management is exploring
promotional opportunities to return the Studio's sales to previous levels.

Irvine Studio revenues  decreased by $48,857 to $86,033,  a decrease of 36%. The
quarter ended June 30, 1996  represented the first spring season for the Studio.
The  demographics  of the area  indicate  many of the  customers  to the  Irvine
Spectrum Entertainment Center in which the Studio is located are local or repeat
customers. While these people utilize the entertainment facilities of the center
on a  regular  basis,  they  view  photography  as a  service  to be  used  only
occasionally or infrequently, hence the Studio is not benefiting from the repeat
business  experienced by other vendors in the Center. As already discussed,  the
Company is continuing in its efforts to

                                      8

expand the  portfolio of products  available at the Studio,  which appeal to the
local market and is considering the  reconfiguration  of the Studio to a smaller
size, or the closure of the Studio.

and related  benefits  for the CityWalk  Studio were  $24,106  lower than in the
fiscal quarter ended

June 30, 1996,  in line with the decrease in  revenues.  Cost of revenues,  as a

in the fiscal  quarter ended June 30, 1996.  Depreciation  for the Irvine Studio

decrease of 37%.  Compensation  and  related  benefits  decreased  by $66,929 to
$35,672 as compared to $102,601 for the same period last year. This decrease was

The net loss of the  Company  for the fiscal  quarter  ended  June 30,  1997 was
$210,136 as compared to a net loss of $204,568, incurred in the same period last
year, an increase in the net loss of $5,568.

As of June 30,  1997,  the  Company  has net  operating  loss carry  forwards of
approximately $9.8 million.  The ability to utilize $8.3 million of these losses
to be offset  against  future  taxable  income is  restricted as a result of the
change in control  arising from the acquisition by PCG in June 1995 of in excess
of 50% of the Common  Stock of the  Company.  The losses  will  expire in March,
2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On June 30,  1997,  the  Company  had a working  capital  deficit of $600,724 as
compared  to a working  capital  deficit  on March  31,  1997 of  $516,861.  The
increase of $83,863 is attributable to the net loss from operations  incurred in
the three month period ended June 30, 1997.

Net cash used in  operating  activities  was $102,014 for the three months ended
June 30, 1997,  compared to $68,892 for the same period last year. This increase
is  primarily  a result of  payments  made to former  officers of the Company of
$29,998 - disclosed in the  Statement of Cash Flows as  "Compensation  payable -
Related Parties".

The Company  currently  has no  specific  commitments  for capital  expenditure,
however management  continues to evaluate  opportunities to expand the business.
The development and construction of additional studios in the future may require
significant capital expenditure.

In the three  months  ended June 30,  1997,  $55,000 of funds were loaned to the
Company by PCG for  working  capital  requirements.  A further  $70,000 has been
loaned to the Company in the period July 1, 1997 to August 12, 1997.

The Company  does not  anticipate  that it will have any problems in meeting its
obligations for continuing  fixed expenses,  materials  procurement or operating
labor.  Management believes the managerial  assistance that is being provided to
the Company through its association  with PCG and the willingness and ability of
PCG to continue to fund the cash flow  deficiencies of the Company are necessary
to ensure the  continued  operating  viability  of the  Company.  The Company is
continuing to identify and evaluate  opportunities for the building and bringing
into operation of additional  studios,  which would require funding from sources
external to the Company.  Having regard to the current financial position of the
Company, the most likely source of funding for such growth is through additional
equity or a loan from PCG. There is no ongoing  commitment by PCG to supply such
funds and there can be no  assurance  that such funds will be made  available by
PCG. The Company is continuing to explore  other  opportunities  for funding its
studio expansion,  however no assurance can be given that appropriate sources of
finance will be found.
