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.

industry. Management is currently reviewing several potential acquisition
candidates in the plastics industry, and hopes to secure operations in the near
future.
