Inc., which is now its wholly-owned subsidiary. Since its inception, the Company
has focused on assisting  western business to develop trade,  manufacturing  and
investment  opportunities  in Russia,  the Czech and Slovak  Republics  and to a
lesser extent,  other  countries of the CIS. In late 1993, the Company began the
implementation of its plan for the export of American-made  generic prescription
drugs and  over-the-counter  healthcare  products in both Russia and the CIS and
has received certain  regulatory  approvals in 1994, 1995 and 1996 to market its
products.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         At March 31, 1997, the Company had cash of $222,000 and the Company had
borrowed  $2,500,000  pursuant to its  $2,500,000  loan  agreement from National
Patent. These proceeds were used as part of the Company's working capital.  Such
borrowings bear interest at the prime rate, with principal and accrued  interest
becoming due on August 5, 1999. In addition,  after the Company had borrowed the
full  $2,500,000  under the loan  agreement  during  the first  quarter of 1996,
National Patent  continued to fund the operating needs of the Company until July
1996.

         In July 1996, the Company issued 7% convertible  notes in the principal
amount of $1,000,000 in a private offering; the net proceeds to the Company were
$950,000.  National Patent has agreed to fund the Company through  September 30,
1997, if necessary,  pursuant to the same terms and conditions as the $2,500,000
loan agreement.  National Patent will evaluate its future funding commitments to
the Company on a quarterly basis. As of March 31, 1997, the Company had borrowed
$3,904,000  from  National  Patent.   The  indebtedness  was  comprised  of  (i)
$2,500,000  pursuant to a $2,500,000 loan agreement with National  Patent,  (ii)
cash advances from National Patent totaling $871,000, and (iii) accrued interest
at the prime rate totaling $533,000.  The Company is attempting to secure a bank
credit facility,  issue additional debt or issue additional equity securities to
meet its working  capital  needs.  If the Company is unable to raise  additional
capital,  it could be forced to delay,  scale back or  eliminate  certain or all
activities.  In  addition,  there is no  assurance  that  the  terms of any such
transactions will be favorable to the Company.

         The   Company   does  not   manufacture,   and   does  not   anticipate
manufacturing,  any of its products. As a consequence, the Company has not made,
and does not anticipate making, any major capital expenditures.

Results of Operations

Quarter Ended March 31, 1997 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 1996

         Revenues. In the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company had revenues
of approximately  $176,000 as compared to revenues of approximately $524,000 for
the  quarter  ended March 31,  1996.  The  decrease in revenues of $348,000  was
primarily due to the decrease in 1997 in sales of medical  equipment and generic
drugs in the Commonwealth of Independent  States offset by increased  consulting
revenues.  The sales of medical equipment and generic drugs, resulted in $11,000
of gross  margin in the first  quarter of 1997,  compared  to  $137,000 of gross
margin in the first quarter of 1996.

         General  and  Administrative   Expenses.   General  and  administrative
expenses consist  primarily of office rent,  salaries,  travel and related costs
and legal expenses. Direct costs relating to consulting revenues are included in
general and  administrative  expenses.  The Company's general and administrative
expenses decreased to $367,000 in the first quarter of 1997 from $410,000 in the
first quarter of 1996. This decrease in general and  administrative  expenses in
1997 was primarily due to reduced consulting and personnel costs.

         Net Loss.  The Company's  net loss  increased to $370,000 for the first
quarter of 1997 from $338,000 in the first quarter of 1996.  The increased  loss
for the quarter  ended  March 31,  1997 was the result of reduced  sales and the
corresponding  gross profit,  partially offset by increased  consulting revenues
and reduced  general  and  administrative  expenses.  In  addition,  the Company
incurred increased interest expense during the first quarter of 1997 as a result
of the 7% convertible note issued in July 1996.

Recent accounting pronouncement

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,  and  makes the  United  States  standards  for
computing  earnings per share more comparable to international  standards.  SFAS
No. 128 requires  presentation  of "basic"  earnings  per share (which  excludes
dilution)  and  "diluted"  earnings per share.  The Company does not believe the
adoption  of SFAS No.  128 in fiscal  1997 will  have a  material  impact on the
Company's  reported  earnings per share. 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.

Forward-Looking   Statements.   This  report  contains  certain  forward-looking
statements  reflecting  management's current views with respect to future events
and  financial  performance.  These  forward-looking  statements  are subject to
certain  risks and  uncertainties  that  could  cause  actual  results to differ
materially  from those in the  forward-looking  statements,  including,  but not
limited to the Company's ability to reverse its history of operating losses; the
Company's  ability to fund its operations;  and the Company's  ability to secure
additional financing on acceptable terms.
