(1) Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The accompanying unaudited financial statements do not include all
of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. The results of operations for interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for a full year or any other interim period. For further
information, see the consolidated financial statements included in
the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996.
(2) Business Acquisition
--------------------
On May 8, 1997, the Company completed its acquisition of The Lodge
Keeper Group, Inc. of Prospect, Ohio ("Lodge Keeper"). The purchase
price totaled approximately $6.3 million consisting primarily of
cash of $825,000, 106,320 shares of common stock of the Company, and
the assumption of approximately $4.8 million of debt. Lodgekeeper
operates 18 hotels under long-term leases, holds management
contracts on five Country Hearth Inn hotels and owns one independent
hotel, among other assets. The acquisition has been accounted for
using the purchase method and Lodgekeeper's results of operations
are included in the Company's financial statements from the
acquisition date.
The following pro forma financial information presents total
revenue, net income, and net income per share for the six months

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION.
- -------------------------------------------------------
1996
- ----
During the second quarter of 1996, the Company invested approximately $250,000
in a joint venture to build a Country Hearth Inn in Mason, Ohio. The property
opened in May 1997. In a separate transaction, the Company made a $170,000 loan
to a partnership which, in turn, executed a license agreement for a Country
Hearth Inn in Canton Township, Michigan. The loan proceeds were used for hotel
renovations and the Company also has an option to acquire up to a 50% equity
interest in the partnership.
Also during the second quarter of 1996, the Company collected $250,000 on a note
receivable pledged to Trilon International, Inc. ("Trilon"). Those proceeds
along with other collections reduced the net obligation to Trilon to
approximately $1 million. The Trilon obligation was fully satisfied in the
fourth quarter of 1996.
One of the last remaining "Old Buckhead" claims was resolved in April 1996. The
settlement released approximately $300,000 of restricted funds to the Company.
1997
- ----
On May 8, 1997, the Company completed its acquisition of The Lodge Keeper Group,
Inc. of Prospect, Ohio ("Lodge Keeper"). The purchase price totaled
approximately $6.3 million consisting primarily of cash of $825,000, 106,320
shares of common stock of the Company, and the assumption of approximately $4.8
million of debt. Lodgekeeper operates 18 hotels under long-term leases, holds
management contracts on five Country Hearth Inn hotels and owns one independent
hotel, among other assets.
Approximately $4.7 million of the purchase price was allocated to property and
equipment and approximately $2.5 million to leasehold interests. The Company
also assumed a working capital deficit of approximately $1.3 million.
Lodge Keeper will continue to manage the 24 hotels it previously managed in
addition to managing the five properties previously managed by the Company and
will manage properties to be acquired by the Company such as the previously
reported Hatfield Inns.
At its June 26, 1997 annual meeting of shareholders, the Company received
authorization to issue up to 200,000 shares of preferred stock. The Company
expects to issue $3 million of preferred stock in connection with the previously
reported Hatfield Inn acquisition. The transaction is expected to close in the
third quarter of 1997 although management can provide no assurance that the
transaction will close at that time or at all.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
- ------------------------------------
Hotel revenues amounted to $3,426,734 and $5,714,906 for the three month and six
month periods ended June 30, 1997, respectively, as opposed to $2,437,680 and
$5,318,444 during the same periods in 1996. Hotel operating profits for the 1997
three and six month periods amounted to $771,189 and $1,427,101, respectively,
versus $540,041 and $1,530,626 in 1996. Such changes are attributable to the
acquisition of Lodge Keeper in May 1997 and the sale of the Company's Miami
hotel in December 1996. Also, revenue increases resulted from the Company's 1996
acquisitions of hotels in Atlanta and Dalton, Georgia.
The properties presently owned by the Company are subject to a significant
amount of seasonal fluctuation. Most of the properties are expected to be
profitable during the third quarter and will probably not be profitable during
the fourth quarter. On an annual basis, all properties are expected to satisfy
their debt and other cash obligations in addition to providing the Company with
management and/or franchise fees.
Interest income continues to decline as a result of decreases in the note
receivable portfolio and in funds available for investment. As previously
stated, management intends to shift financial resources to other assets, such as
the hotel acquisitions previously discussed. The first quarter of 1997 includes
approximately $450,000 resulting from the call of IRB's the Company previously
owned.
Other income in the second quarter of 1997 and 1996 includes approximately
$250,000 and $350,000, respectively, relating to favorable settlements of "Old
Buckhead" claims. Further such gains are not expected. Both the 1997 and 1996
second quarters include approximately $130,000 of franchise fees, excluding fees
from Company owned properties which are eliminated. Most of the resulting 1997
increase is attributable to the Lodge Keeper acquisition and miscellaneous
recoveries.
Other operating and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 1997
increased $389,131 versus the same period in 1996. Most of this increase (67%)
resulted from the acquisition of Lodge Keeper in May 1997. Another 28% of the
increase is attributable to personnel additions to the Company's Country Hearth
Inn franchising operations.
Depreciation and interest expense in the first half of 1997 were reduced as a
result of the previously discussed Miami hotel sale. Interest expense on each
individual debt obligation generally decreased as the principal balances were
reduced. Interest expense associated with the Orlando hotel increased as a
result of the increased principal balance resulting from its November 1996
refinancing. Proceeds from the refinancing were used to pay off the Trilon
obligation. Trilon interest expense in the first half of 1996 amounted to
$113,907. Interest expense in future periods will increase as a result of the
openings of the Atlanta and Dalton hotels and as a result of the Lodge Keeper
acquistion. Most of the Company's debt obligations are fixed rate, thus the
Company is not susceptible to a large amount of rate risk.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES
On May 8, 1997, the Registrant issued 106,320 unregistered shares of its $.01
par value common stock to accredited investors. Such shares were issued as
partial consideration for the Registrant's acquisition of The Lodge Keeper
Group, Inc. ("Lodge Keeper"). The recipients of the shares were the former
shareholders of Lodge Keeper and the consideration received by the Registrant
was estimated to have a fair market value equal to the fair market value of the
shares issued.
The exemption from registration was pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended.
