The reduction in the second quarter revenues is due to the following factors:
   - Credifinance Securities Limited:  most of the sales and research
     staff effort was directed towards corporate finance activities which
     allowed the completion of two transactions (efforts continue to
     hire, traders/salespeople).
   - Reeve, Mackay & Associates Limited: as previously stated in the
     10-QSB MDA, there are two high seasons in the auction business: fall
     (November & December) and late spring (May/June).  Reeve, Mackay
     incurred a great portion of the expenses related to important sales
     in the off season months: moving and storage of goods, marketing of
     consignments and cataloging.

Net loss for the six months ended September 30, 1996 was $70,078 on a
weighted average of 738,129 common shares for the period.  Therefore, the
loss per share for the period is 0.09.  Consolidated cash flow for the
period was $94,275.

The company's book value per share at the end of the second quarter is
$4.92 versus $5.98 six months earlier.  The reduction is primarily due to
the issuing of 277,142 new common stock for net proceeds of $703,382.

As reported in our 10-QSB for the first quarter, InterUnion has raised
$759,710 and received commitment for an additional $1.5 million but the
Company would rather finalize the Placement at the same time that it
announces an acquisition or it receives its NASDAQ listing.

The Company continues to explore opportunities for the acquisition of
operating companies that will provide additional liquidity and cash flow.
The Company anticipates that such acquisitions would be financed by the
use of the cash generated by the above mentioned financing as well as the
issuance of common stock from treasury.  Management of the Company would
like to add that a number of opportunities have presented themselves,
however, none have been consummated as the parameters originally set out
were not met.

The Company feels that the financial statements for the periods ending
September 30,1996, March 31,1996 and March 31,1995 accurately reflect the
operations of the Company and its subsidiaries.  In fact, the Company has
taken every reasonable step to insure that its financial statements do
