NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

GENERAL
- -------

Diamond  Equities,  Inc. (the "Company") has elected to omit  substantially  all
footnotes to the  financial  statements  for the six months  ended  December 31,
1997,  since there have been no material  changes (other than indicated in other
footnotes) to the information previously reported by the Company in their Annual
Report filed on Form 10-KSB for the Fiscal year ended June 30, 1997.

UNAUDITED INFORMATION
- ---------------------

The  information  furnished  herein was taken from the books and  records of the
Company without audit.  However,  such information reflects all adjustment which
are, in the opinion of management,  necessary to properly reflect the results of
the interim  period  presented.  The  information  presented is not  necessarily
indicative of the results from operations expected for the full fiscal year.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company
- ----------------------------------------------

         On November  15,  1996,  the  Company  sold its  payphone  base and all
related equipment, contracts, automobiles and nearly all furniture & fixtures to
Tru-Tel  Communications,  L.L.C. for $1,711,250 in cash and a note receivable of
$811,250.  The Company  assigned the office and warehouse lease to the buyer and
moved its operations to another location in Tempe,  Arizona.  Since November 15,
1996,  the Company has been  winding  down  operations  relative to the payphone
business  and has been  involved in  searching  for new  business  ventures  and
operations to acquire in different industries.  Because the Company discontinued
its operations in the pay telephone industry in fiscal year 1997, the results of
operations will greatly differ from that of fiscal year 1998.

Cash and cash  equivalents  totaled  $1,210,102 at December 31, 1997 compared to
$1,586,983  at June 30, 1997.  The decrease in cash was due primarily to general
and  administrative  expenses  exceeding the interest income,  which is the only
form of revenue the Company  currently  has, as well as the payment of sales tax
liabilities and attorneys fees related to the discontinued operations.

Long  term  cash  requirements,   other  than  normal  operating  expenses,  are
anticipated  for the  acquisition  or start up of new business  operations.  The
Company  believes that its existing cash and  anticipated  cash  generated  from
operations  will  be  sufficient  to  satisfy  its  currently  anticipated  cash
requirements for fiscal year 1998.

The  Company's  principal  commitment  at  December  31,  1997  consists  of  an
obligation under an operating leases for facilities.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Revenues  of  $15,534  from  interest  income  for the  second  quarter  of 1998
decreased  slightly from the same period last year due to diminishing  cash. The
only form of  revenues  currently  being  recorded  is the  interest on the cash
accounts. Because the note receivable is in default, no interest income is being
recorded.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $87,397 for the second quarter
1998,  an increase of $36,776  over the same period last year.  The  increase is
primarily due additional wages paid due to added personnel,  travel expenses and
professional fees incurred in the search for new operations..

Management  anticipates  that general selling and  administrative  expenses will
continue to remain constant until new business operations begin.

The Company  incurred a loss of $(105,059)  for the second quarter 1998 compared
to a gain of  $1,760,322  for the same timely period a year ago, due to the sale
of the  payphone  operations.  The  Company no longer has a  preferred  dividend
burden  due  to  the  exchange  of  Series  A  Preferred   Stock  for  Series  B
non-cumulative  preferred  stock.  This results in an  additional  net income of
$27,264 available to common shareholders every quarter.

                                December 31, 1997


There are no  seasonal  aspects of the  Company's  business  which  had,  or are
expected to have, a material  effect on the  financial  conditions or results of
operations.

Plan of Operations
- ------------------

The  Company's  plan for 1998 is to acquire or begin  operations  in a different
industry.  Management  is  currently  reviewing  several  potential  acquisition
candidates in the plastics industry,  and hopes to secure operations in the near
future.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 3(b) Defaults Upon Senior Securities
- -----------------------------------------

The Company is 21 months in arrears  ($194,023)  as of November 14, 1997, in the
payment of dividends to the  shareholders of the Class A 6% Preferred Stock. The
class A Preferred  shares have been replaced by Class B shares,  however accrued
preferred dividends have not yet been paid.
