NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND INTERIM REPORTING
The financial statements of Czech Industries, Inc. (the "Company") for
the quarter and six months ended September 30, 1996 have been prepared by
the Company, are unaudited, and are subject to year-end adjustments.
These unaudited financial statements reflect all known adjustments (which
included only normal, recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position,
results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The results
presented herein for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative
of the actual results to be expected for the fiscal year.
The notes accompanying the consolidated financial statements in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
1995 and in the Company's Transitional Report on Form 10-KSB for the
period ended March 31, 1996, include accounting policies and additional
information pertinent to an understanding of these interim financial
statements.
For the quarter and six months ended September 30, 1995, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements include the financial position, results
of operations and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiary, Hotel
Fortuna a.s., for the quarter and six months ended September 30, 1995.
For the quarter and six months ended September 30, 1996, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements include the financial position, results
of operations and cash flows of the Company for the quarter and six
months ended September 30, 1996, the financial position of its

of the date of acquisition (August 1, 1996), and the financial position,
results of operations, and cash flows of its subsidiary, Hotel Fortuna a.s.
for such periods.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and 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. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the
current presentation.
2. ACQUISITION OF EASTBROKERS BETEILIGUNGS AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT
On August, 1, 1996, the Company acquired 80 percent of the outstanding
stock of Eastbrokers through the issuance of 5,400,000 shares of the
Company (1,080,000 shares as adjusted for the reverse stock split effective
September 1996). The Company acquired an additional 245,320 shares in
Eastbrokers increasing its ownership percentage to 83.62 percent.
3. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In October 1996, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its
interest in the Hotel Fortuna a.s. The sale of the Hotel was completed on

PART I -- FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
This Form 10-QSB for the quarterly period ended September 30, 1996, makes
reference to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 1, 1996
("Report"). The Report, which is incorporated by reference herein, includes
information necessary or useful to an understanding of the Company's
businesses and financial statement presentations. The Report more fully
describes the terms and conditions of the Agreement between the Company and
Eastbrokers Beteiligungs Aktiengesellschaft ("Eastbrokers") a Vienna, Austria
based investment banking and stock brokerage firm. Such information relating
to the Agreement between the Company and Eastbrokers is not contained in this
Form 10-QSB. The Report is included as an exhibit in this Form 10-QSB and the
Company will furnish a copy of this Report upon request made directly to the
Company's headquarters at 15245 Shady Grove Road, Suite 340, Rockville,
Maryland 20850, telephone number (301) 527-1110 and facsimile number
(301) 527-1112.
On August 1, 1996, the Company consummated its acquisition of Eastbrokers
reflecting its previously stated objective of seeking to invest into, merge
with or acquire one or more companies generating strong earnings in growth
oriented industries. The Company was seeking such investment opportunities
throughout Eastern and Central Europe and not just in the Czech Republic.
Eastbrokers is a holding company that, through its subsidiaries, provides
financial services in Eastern and Central Europe. The acquisition of
Eastbrokers improves the financial condition of the Company by providing
earnings from its brokerage business, while positioning the Company to take
advantage of what management considers as a significant opportunity to provide
investment banking and corporate finance services in an emerging market
infrastructure and growth industries.
During the quarter ended September 30, 1996, management augmented mid-level
personnel and increased office space and management information systems in
several of its Eastern European offices. Management has also been considering
offering certain services and products to firms and individuals involved in
the U.S. capital markets.
On September 10, 1996, the Company held a Special Meeting of Stockholders. At
this meeting, the Board of Directors of the Company submitted to the
shareholders two proposed amendments to the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation. Both proposals passed, and the Certificate of Incorporation was
amended. See Item 4 of this Form 10-QSB for a brief description of each matter
voted upon, and the number of votes cast for, against, and withheld, the
number of abstentions, and broker non-votes. The Board of Directors submitted
such proposals to the stockholders to address the issue raised by the Nasdaq
Stock Market, Inc. ("Nasdaq") that, as a result of the acquisition of
Eastbrokers, the Company may not meet the criteria for initial listing on the
Nasdaq SmallCap Market. Subsequent to the passage of the proposals, Nasdaq
officially notified the Company that it has met all the initial listing
requirements. Consequently, the Company has maintained its listing on the
Nasdaq SmallCap Market.
On November 5, 1996, a date subsequent to the period which this Form 10-QSB
covers, the Company consummated the sale of its ownership interest in the
Hotel Fortuna a.s. See Item 5 of this Form 10-QSB for information regarding
the disposition of the Hotel Fortuna a.s. stock. Upon review of the market
conditions facing the hotel industry in Prague, management determined that it
would be in the best interest of the Company to liquidate its investment in
the hotel. The Company intends to use the net proceeds generated from the sale
to expand operations.
In return for the Company's shares of the Hotel Fortuna a.s., the Company
received 100,000 shares of Common Stock of Ceske energeticke zavody a.s.,
nominal value 1,100 CZK ("CEZ"), a Czech utility company, and 86,570 shares of
Common Stock of Vodni stavby Praha a.s., nominal value 1,000 CZK ("VS"), a
Czech construction company. Both CEZ and VS are actively traded on the Prague
Stock Exchange's Main Market ("PSE"). At the time of this filing, the Company
was holding 97,500 shares of CEZ having a market value of 900 CZK per share
(approximately $3,270,000 USD) and 42,368 shares of VS having a market value
of 1,250 CZK per share (approximately $1,974,000 USD). Management believes
that due to the fluctuations inherent in the PSE holding the CEZ and VS Common
Stock poses an uncertainty that may reasonably have a material impact on the
Company's short term liquidity.
On November 6, 1996, a date subsequent to the period which this Form 10-QSB
covers, the Company used
-20-
<PAGE>
2,500 shares of CEZ and 30,302 shares of VS to repay the balance of the
principal and interest due under a Note payable owed to Finn s.r.o. in the
approximate amount of $2.1 million USD. Also, the Company sold 13,900
shares of VS at 1,800 CZK per share for approximately $930,000 USD. The
repayment of this Note is not reflected in the Historical Financial
Statements of the Company (pages 2 through 5 of this Form 10-QSB) but is
reflected in the Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements (pages 6
through 19 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB).
Also on November 6, 1996, the European Association of Securities Dealers
(EASD) approved for membership into its organization WMP Borsenmakler AG
("WMP"), a partially owned subsidiary of the Company. The EASD operates
EASDAQ, which is a screen-based stock market that uses a multiple
market-making system similar to that used by NASDAQ in the United States. WMP
provides market making services in over 400 Austrian securities trading on the
Vienna Stock Exchange, underwriting services to issuers seeking to raise
capital on the Vienna Stock Exchange, and brokerage services to institutional
clients investing in the Eastern European stock markets. WMP intends to expand
its market making, underwriting and brokerage services to countries and
companies serviced by the EASD and through EASDAQ.
The information contained in this Item contains forward looking statements.
The matters referred to in such statements could be effected by the risks and
uncertainties involved in the Company's business, including (without
limitation) the effect of political, economic and market conditions both
domestically and in Eastern and Central Europe. Accordingly, the Company makes
no assurances as to the future success of these matters.
Results of Operations. See Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements For the Six Months Ended September 30, 1996, for an explanation of
the basis of presentation of the financial statements. For the three month
period ended September 30, 1996, the Company generated consolidated revenues
in the amount of $836,951, compared to $1,577,201 for the three month period
ended September 30, 1995. This decrease is related to an overall reduction in
revenues generated from hotel operations, foreign currency fluctuations, and a
change in the Company's fiscal year end. For the period ended September 30,
1995, the Company's consolidated financial statements contained the hotel's
revenues and expenses for the quarter and six months ended September 30, 1995.
For the period ended September 30, 1996, the Company's consolidated financial
statements contain the hotel's revenues and expenses for the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 1996. The quarter ended September 30, is typically the
strongest quarter for the hotel's operations. Occupancy percentages is this
market are generally highest during the quarter ended September 30 due to
increased travel and tourism business. The revenues and expenses of the hotel
for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 are not reflected in the consolidated
financial statements included elsewhere herein. This factor alone accounts for
nearly all of the significant decline in the revenues reported this period as
compared to the same period one year ago. Comparing the hotel's operations for
the quarter ended June 30 of both years, combined hotel room revenues and
hotel food and beverage revenues increased approximately 36 percent over the
three month period ended June 30, 1996. This increase is attributable to the
Company's affiliation with the Quality Hotel franchise effective January 1,
1996.
The Company incurred total consolidated costs and expenses of $808,752 for the
three month period ended September 30, 1996, compared to $1,218,881 for the
three month period ended September 30, 1995. During this period the cost of
sales decreased in relation to the decrease in hotel revenues. Interest
expense decreased approximately 86 percent due primarily to curtailments of
debt principal made possible by the public offering in 1995. General and
administrative expenses increased approximately 70 percent as a result of
additional costs associated with the Eastbrokers acquisition.
The Company incurred a consolidated net loss of $81,267 for the three month
period ended September 30, 1996, compared to a net gain of $143,420 for the
three month period ended September 30, 1995. Net earnings from the hotel
increased from $79,284 to $110,345 for the periods ended September 30, 1995,
and September 30, 1996, respectively.
During the quarter, the Company, through a capital stock purchase, invested
$3.1 million USD into Eastbrokers. Also, during July 1996, the Company loaned
to Eastbrokers $1.5 million USD. Eastbrokers used the proceeds of the capital
stock purchase to increase its equity in the Eastbrokers Warsaw unit, the
Eastbrokers Budapest unit and WMP Borsenmakler AG ("WMP"). The Eastbrokers
Warsaw and Budapest units are using the funds for working capital. WMP used
the funds to acquire IS Bohemia, a Czech Fund manager which manages five Czech
privatization funds (total approximate value of assets under management is
- 21 -
<PAGE>
$14.5 million USD) and owns a commercial real estate project located in Brno,
Czech Republic. Management intends to sell the Brno real estate project in 1997.
The sale will be contingent on the existing market conditions.
Eastbrokers used proceeds of the loan to provide intercompany loans to the
Eastbrokers Instanbul unit, the Eastbrokers Almaty unit, the Eastbrokers
Ljubljana unit and the Eastbrokers Sofia unit. The Eastbrokers Instanbul, Almaty
and Ljubljana units are using the funds for working capital. The Eastbrokers
Sofia unit used the funds to market the TRUDInvestment Fund, a Bulgarian
privatization fund (due to the status of the privatization process in Bulgaria
the value of this fund cannot presently be determined).
On September 30, 1996, the Company had total current assets of $23,009,767 and
total current liabilities of $13,436,096, compared to $5,685,672 and $297,907,
respectively, on September 30, 1995. As of the date of this filing, the
Company believes that it has adequate liquidity to meet its current
obligations. However, no assurances can be made as to the Company's ability to
meet its cash requirements subsequent to any further business combinations.

ITEM 4 -- SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
On September 10, 1996, the Company held a Special Meeting of
Stockholders ("Special Meeting"). The Board of Directors of the Company
submitted to the shareholders a proposed amendment to the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation that would effect a reverse stock split of
the Company's Common Stock on the basis of one new share of Common Stock
for each five shares of presently outstanding Common Stock and reduce
the authorized number of Common Stock from 50,000,000 shares to
10,000,000 shares.
The number of shares of stock issued and outstanding prior to the
reverse split was 14,355,000. The holders of 8,005,122 shares of stock
entitled to vote, which constituted a quorum, were present at the
Special Meeting. As to the approval of the amendment to the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation to effect a one for five reverse split of
the Company's Common Stock, 7,974,422 voted for the proposal, 27,200
voted against the proposal, and 3,500 abstained. There were 6,349,878
shares of the Company's Common Stock that were not voted.
As to the modification of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to
increase the par value of the Company's Common Stock to $.05 per share,
7,974,422 voted for the proposal, 27,200 voted against the proposal, and
3,500 abstained. There were 6,349,878 shares of the Company's Common
Stock that were not voted.
The meeting did not involve the election of any directors.
ITEM 5 -- OTHER INFORMATION
On October 1, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with Y.S.E. a.s.
to dispose of the Company's controlling equity interest in the Hotel
Fortuna a.s. The Company had owned 251,000 shares of Common Stock of the
Hotel Fortuna a.s., which owns a 242 room hotel, restaurant and lounge
located in Prague, Czech Republic. The disposition in the Company's
interest in the Hotel Fortuna a.s. is deemed to be a disposition of a
significant amount of the Company's assets.
In return for its equity interest in the Hotel Fortuna a.s., the Company
received 100,000 shares of Common Stock of Ceske energeticke zavody
a.s., nominal value 1,100 CZK ("CEZ"), a Czech utility company, and
86,570 shares of Common Stock of Vodni stavby Praha a.s., nominal value
1,000 CZK ("VS"), a Czech construction company. Both CEZ and VS are
actively traded on the Prague Stock Exchange's Main Market. The VS
shares were transferred to the Company on or about October 15, 1996, and
the CEZ shares were transferred to the Company on or about November 5,
1996. The Company transferred its shares of the Hotel Fortuna a.s. to
Y.S.E. a.s. on or about November 6, 1996.
The Company determined the value of the Hotel Fortuna a.s. shares by
adding the Company's historical cost basis in the hotel with the
Company's proportionate share of the hotel's earnings it received
through June 30, 1996. As a result of this calculation, the Company
determined the value of its interest in the hotel to be approximately
$9,400,000 USD. The company valued the CEZ and VS shares it received
as consideration by determining the market value of the shares as quoted
on the PSE on October 1, 1996, the date of the execution of the contract.
On October 1, 1996, the PSE quoted prices of CEZ and VS were 1,040 CZK
and 1,900 CZK per share, respectively.
On a date subsequent to obtaining the shares, the Company used 2,500
shares of CEZ and 30,302 shares of VS to repay the balance of the
principal and interest due under a Note payable to Finn s.r.o. in the
approximate amount of $2.1 million USD. Also, the Company sold 13,900
shares of VS at 1,800 CZK per share for approximately $930,000 USD.
At the time of this filing, the Company was holding 97,500 shares of
CEZ having a market value of
- 23 -
<PAGE>
approximately $3,270,000 USD and 42,368 shares of VS having
a market value of approximately $1,974,000 USD. Accordingly, the Company
has experienced a paper loss on the sale of the Hotel Fortuna a.s. of
approximately ($1,300,000). The estimated effect of this paper loss is not
reflected in the Historical Financial Statements of the Company (pages 2
through 5 of this Form 10-QSB) but is reflected in the Pro Forma
Consolidated Financial Statements (pages 6 through 19 of this Form
10-QSB).
The transaction between the Company and Y.S.E. a.s. was arranged
by Stratego Invest a.s., a broker-dealer and financial consulting company
organized under the laws of the Czech Republic. Ing. Petr Bednarik, a
director and shareholder of the Company, is the Chairperson of the
Supervisory Board and a beneficial owner of Stratego Invest a.s. For
providing services related to the transaction, Stratego Invest a.s.
received a commission fee of 1,000,000 CZK (approximately $37,000 USD).

of the class for which such directors shall have been chosen and until
their successors shall be elected and qualified. At each annual
meeting of stockholders the successors to the class of directors whose
term shall then expire shall be elected to hold office for a term
expiring at the third succeeding annual meeting.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Certificate of
Incorporation or the By-Laws of the Corporation (and notwithstanding
that a lesser percentage may be specified by law, this Certificate of
Incorporation or otherwise), any director or the entire Board of
Directors may be removed at any time but only for cause and only by

without a meeting except upon the written consent of holders of 100%
of the shares of the capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote
upon such action. In addition to any requirements of law and any other
provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation (and notwithstanding
that a lesser percentage may be specified by law, this Certificate of
Incorporation or otherwise), the affirmative vote of sixty-six and
two-third percent (66 2/3%) of the votes entitled to be cast by all
