PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Change in revenue for the 1st Quarters, 1997 and 1996 are shown below:

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Percentage of Change Compared to Preceding Period 16.8% 6.6%
===================================================================================================
</TABLE>
The primary components of revenue are premium and net investment income. The
increase in revenue from 1996 is primarily due to increases in premium income
which is the result of new association business and increased sales of group
accident and health insurance.
Change in premium revenue for the 1st Quarters, 1997 and 1996 are shown below:

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Percentage of Change Compared to Preceding Period 19.2% 6.5%
===================================================================================================
</TABLE>
In the 1st Quarter, 1997 premium increased by $431,743 from the 1st Quarter,
1996. This increase in premium is due to increasing sales of group accident
and health insurance, dental insurance and the addition of new associations and
groups which the Company contracted with to provide major medical insurance.
Change in net investment income for the 1st Quarters, 1997 and 1996 are shown
below:

Percent Change in Net Investment Income (21.1%) 8.2%
===================================================================================================
</TABLE>
In the three months ending March 31, 1997 investments experienced a 21.1%
decrease in total net investment income due to maturing bonds which have not
yet been reinvested. The proceeds are currently held as money market funds.
This has resulted in a decrease in the interest income on the portfolio.

1996 are shown below:

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Percentage of Change Compared to Preceding Period 10.4% (11.1%)
===================================================================================================
</TABLE>
The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to
expenses incurred during the prospective acquisition of another company. The
Company incurred additional legal, accounting and actuarial fees associated
with analyzing the target company and requesting approval from the State
Insurance Department. Management subsequently decided not to proceed with the
acquisition.
Change in commission expense for the 1st Quarters, 1997 and 1996 are show
below:

Increase(Decrease) in Commission Expense Compared to
Preceding Period $189,700 $30,178
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Percentage of Change Compared to Preceding Period 205.6% 48.6%
===================================================================================================
</TABLE>
The increase in commission expense is due primarily to the higher commission
rates paid on the Company's new business. Commission rates vary depending on
the type of insurance policy written as well as first year and renewal year
policies. The Company has written a large amount of new business with higher
first year commission rates. Major medical insurance has higher first year
commission and dental insurance has a higher commission structure than other
lines of business which the Company markets.

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
LIQUIDITY
All funds in excess of immediate cash needs are invested in short-term money
market funds, Federal Loan Mortgage bonds, bond funds and certificates of
deposits. The current allocation of funds is fixed maturities 67.3%, cash 1.7%
and short- term investments 31.0%.
The three months ending March 31, 1997 cash flow decreased by $677,778. This
decrease is due to increasing premium tax, commission and acquisition expenses
resulting from increased sales of insurance to new blocks of business.
The Company does not expect to declare any dividends on its stock in the
foreseeable future. No dividends have been declared or paid in the prior four
years.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
PBIC currently does not have any outstanding debts. PBIC does not anticipate
the need for any substantial new capital or debt in the foreseeable future.
