Item 6.

      Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
      Operations

Results of Operations

      The statements  contained in this filing that are not historical facts are
forward-looking  statements.  Actual  results may differ  materially  from those
projections in the forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements
involve risks and uncertainties including,  without limitation,  those mentioned
in  previous  filings  with  the  Securities  Exchange  Commission  under  "Risk
Factors".  The  Company  cannot  assure  that it will be able to  anticipate  or
respond  timely to changes in any of the risk  factors  mentioned  above,  which
could adversely affect operating results in one or more fiscal quarters. Results
of  operations  in any past period  should not be  considered  indicative of the
results to be expected for future periods. Fluctuations in operating results may
also result in fluctuations in the price of the Company's common stock.

      The following  discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial
Statements and the Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in Form 10-KSB/A.

      The Company had  operating  revenues of  $189,000;  operating  expenses of
$1,935,000;  an operating loss of  $1,746,000;  and a net loss of $1,756,000 for
the year ended December 31, 1994. This loss was attributable to expansion of the
Company's  professional staff, increased office space in Naples, Florida and the
opening of a New York City advertising  office.  The loss per share for the year
was $.93.

      For the year ended December 31, 1995,  the Company had operating  revenues
of $797,000;  operating expenses of $6,439,000; an operating loss of $5,641,000;
and a net  loss of  $5,595,000.  The loss  per  share  was  $2.21.  The  Company
attributes approximately  $1,327,000 of production;  $1,000,000 of distribution,
marketing and merchandising;  and $750,000 of promotion expense to be associated
with the  failure  to  timely  place  LottoWorld(R)  magazine  in  retail  sales
locations  because pockets were not properly  prepared to accept delivery of the
magazine.

      The Company, through its efforts to increase circulation and to manage the
newsstand  distribution of the magazine,  expects operating revenues to increase
in 1996 as a result of increased newsstand, advertising and ancillary revenues.

      Newsstand  sales are expected to increase as a result of the  promotion of
the  Lucky  7  Prepack  for  display  at  grocery  store  service  counters  and
non-traditional  magazine outlets.  This promotion has already placed over 2,500
Lucky 7 Prepack at wholesalers throughout the Northeast United Sates.

      The Company  expects to generate the major portion of its revenue  through
the sale of  advertising  in the  controlled  circulation  magazines  it will be
publishing.  The Company  anticipates  the sale of advertising to be the leading
source of it's  revenues  in 1996 and  firmly  believes  it will be able to sell
sufficient advertising to make the controlled circulation magazines successful.

      The Company  expects to begin renting its list of  subscribers  during the
second  quarter and has entered into an agreement  with a List Rental Manager to
develop this stream of revenues.  The Company anticipates  receiving revenues of
approximately $1 per subscriber per year. In addition, the Company feels it will
experience an increase in advertising due to the increase in circulation and the
ancillary revenues of $.45 per subscriber per month is expected to continue.

      The Company  prints a  sufficient  number of each issue of the magazine to
supply  each  retail  location,   each  subscriber  and  additional  copies  for
promotional  and office use.  The number of copies  ordered from the printer for
retail sales  locations is dependent on data the Company  receives  from vendors
representing  the number of retail locations available to receive  magazines for
display  and sale to the  public.  Based on  preliminary  sales data and on-site
surveys of retail locations  indicated by vendors to be available to display and
sell the  magazine,  it was apparent in August  1995,  that the Company had been
supplied  inaccurate  data. As a result of being supplied data which indicated a
greater  number of retail  locations  available  for  retail  display  than were
actually present,  the Company printed an excessive number of magazines for each
issue in June,  July and August  1995.  In  response  to this  information,  the
Company reduced the frequency of issues from bi-weekly to monthly and the number
of  copies  printed  for each  edition  from  approximately  400,000  copies  to
approximately 210,000 copies.

      The  effect of  printing  a large  number of copies  for each issue of the
magazine  that were  never  offered  for retail  sale  resulted  in the  Company
spending a  significant  amount of  operating  cash without  experiencing  sales
revenue from  magazine  sales.  In response to this  situation and in attempt to
conserve  remaining  capital and  increase  revenue,  the Company  adopted a new
strategic plan that significantly reduced  expenditures,  (including the lay-off
of six (6) employees and an across the board 15% salary  reduction),  set future
magazine print orders to verified pocket availability,  reduced the frequency of
the magazine  from every two weeks to every  month,  initiated a Lucky 7 Prepack
retail  sales  program,  accelerated  development  of a  controlled  circulation
magazine  to  be  published  in  cooperation  with  State  Lotteries  and  began
negotiations  with  Publishers  Clearing House and other  national  companies to
begin a subscription marketing program.

      It is  anticipated  that reducing the frequency of the magazine from every
two weeks to every month and reducing the actual number of magazines printed for
each issue will significantly  reduce printing costs without materially reducing



                                       4


<PAGE>


revenue  from retail  sales  because the  Company  will be printing  only enough
magazines as required to fill truly existing retail sales displays.  The Company
projects  revenue from retail  magazine sales to remain  constant or increase as
the  number of  verified  retail  display  pockets  increase  and as a result of
promotion of the Lucky 7 Prepack  display at grocery store service  counters and
non-traditional magazine outlets.

      In addition, the new strategic plan calls for accelerated development of a
controlled  circulation  magazine  to be  published  in  cooperation  with State
Lotteries and expansion of subscription sales of the magazine.

      The controlled  circulation  magazine concept has been discussed with over
fifteen  (15) state  lotteries  and each have  expressed  interest and desire to
participate  in the program.  The New York Lottery has indicated a strong desire
to  proceed in  conjunction  with the  Company  to publish a magazine  dedicated
specifically to New York lottery players. The Company anticipates circulation of
a New York lottery  magazine may exceed  1,000,000  copies  monthly with monthly
circulation  of other state  specific  magazines  possibly  exceeding  2,500,000
copies per month by year end 1996. The Company  anticipates  substantial revenue
associated with  publication of state specific  magazines  exclusively  from the
sale of advertising.

      With respect to  expansion  of  subscription  sales of the  magazine,  the
Company has agreed to  participate  in the  Publishers  Clearing  House  ("PCH")
spring 1996, national sweepstakes mailing.  Depending on the particular type and
number of mailings sent by PCH, PCH estimates new  subscribers to  LottoWorld(R)
magazine may increase  between 50,000 to 150,000 per mailing.  The Company is in
the process of  negotiating  with other national  companies to initiate  similar
subscription  marketing  programs.  Advantages  of  subscription  sales  include
prepayment  of  magazine  sales,   known  printing   requirements   and  reduced
distribution  expenses.  The Company plans to regularly  participate in national
and regional subscription sales campaigns in the future.

      The immediate  effect of  instituting  the new strategic plan should be to
reduce total  monthly  cash  expenditures  by reducing the number of  employees,
salary  reductions for remaining  employees and the elimination of excess copies
of the magazine  printed each month  without  reducing  revenue or impacting the
publication of any magazine.  As  implementation of the new strategic plan takes
effect,  the Company plans to reinstate  salary  reductions and hire  additional
employees as may be necessary to expand publication of magazines associated with
specific  state  lotteries.  Although  the  Company  anticipates  a  substantial
expansion of  operations as a result of  increasing  subscription  sales and the
publication of state specific lottery magazines,  plans to expand operations are
wholly  dependent on acceptance by state  lottery  authorities  of the Company's
state specific  magazine concept and participation in successful direct mail and
sweepstakes subscription campaigns, the certainty of which is unknown.

      The effect of the Distribution  Contract with ICD/Hearst and the Marketing
Contract  entered  into with TDS were to  provide  the  Company  with a means of
achieving  its  national  roll-out of  LottoWorld(R)  magazine.  ICD/Hearst  was
responsible  for billing and collecting  from the  wholesalers,  and assumed all
costs associated therewith.  TDS was to provide  merchandising  services such as
obtaining checkout displays,  maintaining the magazine in the checkout displays,
removing  unauthorized   magazines  from  checkout  pockets  which  display  the
LottoWorld(R)  logo,  and to provide the Company with store  reports or "checks"
detailing and comparing  displays and sales reports among various  magazines for
each issue of LottoWorld(R).  In February 1996, the Company renewed its contract
with ICD/Hearst to provide services similar to the Distribution Contract as well
as  some  additional  services  previously  provided  by  TDS.  The  term of the
ICD/Hearst agreement is for a period of two years. The Company did not renew the
Marketing  Contract with TDS. The new strategic  plan of the Company places less
emphasis on checkout counter sales then in the past while expanding subscription
sales.  As a result,  the  Company's  dependence  on  ICD/Hearst  to  facilitate
magazine sales is substantially reduced.

      The Statement of Operations  indicates the substantial  financial  effects
associated with the national  roll-out of  LottoWorld(R)  magazine in June 1995.
Primarily  based on an  increased  number  of  retail  sales  locations  for the
magazine, sales revenue increased from $189,478 at year end 1994 to $797,466, or
320% for year end 1995. Offsetting sales revenue,  operating expenses illustrate
the extent of costs  associated  with printing an excessive  number of magazines
than were actually  necessary to fill existing retail display pockets.  Based on
vendor data which  indicated  retail  display pocket  availability,  the Company
incurred  Production,  Distribution and Editorial expenses 253% greater than for
the one year period ending  December 31, 1995, than for the same period in 1994;
Circulation expenses 1,253% greater than for the one year period ending December
31, 1995, than for the same period in 1994; Advertising,  Promotion and Business
Development  expenses 255% greater than for the one year period ending  December
31,  1995,  than for the  same  period  in  1994;  while  Selling,  General  and
Administrative  expenses  increased 67% for the one year period ending  December
31, 1995,  than for the same period in 1994. The result of such large  operating
expenses  caused  the  Company to report a 1995 net loss of  $5,595,191  or 218%
greater than reported for 1994.  The Company  believes the receipt of inaccurate
vendor data as to the number of available  retail display pockets was an unusual
and  non-recurring  event which had a material  adverse effect on 1995 operating
revenues.  The Company has taken substantial strategic actions, such as reducing
reliance on vendor retail reports,  increasing subscription sales, expanding the
state lottery sponsored magazines program and printing only enough magazines for
retail display  sufficient to fill verified display  pockets.  The above actions
should  have  a  material  favorable  impact  on  sales  revenue  and  operating
expenditures during 1996.

      Interest  income and interest  expense each increased  materially in 1995.
Interest  income  increased by over 3,526% to $133,727,  primarily from interest
earned on capital  raised by the  Company  through  the sale of common  stock in




                                       6

<PAGE>


March 1995. During this same period, interest expense increased 550% to $87,609.
Of the total  interest  expense of $87,609,  $80,000 was paid on the  $1,000,020
face amount 12% secured  subordinated  promissory notes issued by the Company in
March 1995. These promissory notes were converted to common stock of the Company
in  November  1995,  and as such the  Company  does not  anticipate  significant
interest  expense  in  1996, absent  the  issuance  of  new  debt   obligations.
Conversely,  absent the sale of securities during 1996, some portion of which is
retained  and  invested in interest  bearing  instruments,  the Company does not
anticipate the receipt of a significant amount of interest income in 1996.


Liquidity and Capital Resources:


      During the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company issued 166,670 shares
of  redeemable   convertible  preferred  stock  for  a  total  consideration  of
$1,000,020.  This stock pays an annual cumulative dividend of $.60 per share and
is  convertible  into common stock on a one for one share basis.  The  preferred
stock is subject to  mandatory  redemption  at $6.00 per share for any shares of
convertible  preferred  stock which  remains  outstanding  on December 15, 1998.
Pursuant to terms and  conditions  under which the Company  issued the preferred
stock,  during the period that any  preferred  shares  remain  outstanding,  the
Company shall keep on deposit at First Bank National  Association,  Minneapolis,
Minnesota, the sum of $6.00 for each share of outstanding preferred stock.

      The following table represents the capital resources of the Company:

      The Company used more cash in operating activities during 1995 than during
1994 due to a larger loss and  increased  current  assets  partially  off-set by
increased  current  liabilities.  The Company received cash during 1995 from the

sale of common stock, mainly through an Initial Public Offering of the Company's
common  stock on March  10,  1995 and the  proceeds  from  secured  subordinated
promissory notes from two of the Company's officers. On November 10, 1995, these
officers, Dennis B. Schroeder and A. Richard Holman, the Chief Executive Officer
and President  respectively,  exchanged an aggregate amount of $1,000,020 of the
Company's  secured  subordinated  promissory  notes for an  aggregate of 333,340
shares of the Company's $.001 common stock. The Company  additionally  purchased
wire magazine racks,  equipment and furniture totaling $411,000 which appears to
meet the Company's need for 1996 without any further major capital expenditures.

      In two private  transactions,  on March 12, 1996, the Company sold 180,000
shares and on June 28, 1996, the Company sold 1,188,164  shares of its $.001 par
value common stock. The net proceeds to the Company from these transactions were
$2,325,882.  The following  table sets forth at December 31, 1995; (i) the total

      The Company  believes  that its capital  resources on hand at December 31,
1995, together with the above private transaction and the expected revenues from
sales,  will be sufficient to satisfy its working capital  requirements  for the
next 12 months.


Government Regulation

      Lotteries,  and activities  associated  therewith  such as promotion,  are
subject to  regulation  under  federal  laws and by each state which  conducts a
lottery.  For  example,  all  states  have  prohibitions  on the sale of lottery
tickets  for more than face  value and the sale of  lottery  tickets  from other
states'  lotteries.  LottoWorld(R)  provides  information  concerning  the legal
lotteries of various states, as well as advice on strategies for



                                       8

participating  in such  lotteries.  While the Company  does not believe that its
magazine  contravenes such  prohibitions,  the application of such regulation is
subject to the  interpretation  by, and  enforcement  policy  of,  each  state's
lottery  commission  and/or attorney  general.  The Company actively attempts to
comply with all applicable  laws and has no knowledge of any  regulatory  action
that has been taken or  threatened  that  would  impact  the  activities  of the
Company.  Nevertheless,  there can be no assurance that such  regulatory  action
could not be taken. Any regulatory  action could have a material effect upon the
Company's business.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
LottoWorld,  INC.
Naples, Florida

We have  audited  the  accompanying  balance  sheets of  LottoWorld,  Inc. as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994,  and the related  statements of  operations,  common
shareholders'  equity and cash flows for the years then ended.  These  financial
statements   are  the   responsibility   of  the   Company's   management.   Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of LottoWorld, Inc. as of December
31, 1995 and 1994,  and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been  prepared  assuming that the
Company  will  continue  as a  going  concern.  As  discussed  in  Note 8 to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations.
This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern.  Management's  plans in regard to these  matters are also  described in
Notes 8 and 9. The  financial  statements  do not include any  adjustments  that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1.  NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF BUSINESS:  The  Company's  principal  business is the  publishing  and
distribution of a magazine  ("LottoWorld(R)")  that reports on legally  operated
state  lotteries  throughout  the United States and Canada.  On May 15, 1995 the
Company  changed its name to LottoWorld,  Inc. from Dynamic World  Distributors,
Inc.

A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies follows:

ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted  accounting  principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

REVENUE RECOGNITION:  Magazine sales, less provisions for estimated returns, are
recorded at the time of shipment.  Provisions for estimated returns are based on
the Company's actual  experience.  Magazine  subscription sales are deferred and
recognized  ratably  over  the  subscription  period.   Advertising  revenue  is
recognized upon publication of the advertisement.

FAIR  VALUE  OF  FINANCIAL  INSTRUMENTS:  Cash and  cash  equivalents,  accounts
receivable,  stock  subscriptions  receivable,  accounts  receivable - officers,
accounts payable and dividends payable are reflected in the financial statements
at fair value because of the rapid turnover of those instruments.  The Company's
long-term  debt is reflected in the financial  statements at fair value based on
the borrowing  rates  currently  available to the Company for loans with similar
terms and maturities.

CASH AND CASH  EQUIVALENTS:  For purposes of reporting  cash flows,  the Company
considers money market funds to be cash  equivalents.  The Company maintains its
cash in bank deposit  accounts  which,  at times,  may exceed  federally-insured
limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts. The Company
believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

FURNITURE, FIXTURES AND EQUIPMENT:  Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated
at cost.  Depreciation  is  computed  using the  straight-line  method  over the
estimated useful lives of five to seven years.

INCOME  TAXES:  Deferred  taxes are  provided on the  liability  method  whereby
deferred tax assets are  recognized  for deductible  temporary  differences  and
operating loss and tax credit  carryforwards  and deferred tax  liabilities  are
recognized for taxable  temporary  differences.  Temporary  differences  are the
differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax
bases.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation  allowance  when,  in the
opinion of  management,  it is more likely than not that some  portion or all of
the  deferred  tax  assets  will  not  be  realized.  Deferred  tax  assets  and
liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the
date of enactment.

NET (LOSS) PER COMMON  SHARE:  The net  (loss)  per  common  share  amounts  are
computed using the weighted average number of common shares  outstanding  during
the period after giving retroactive effect to the stock issued during 1994 as if
issued  at the  inception  of the  Company  and the  effect  of the  convertible
preferred stock dividend requirement.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1.  NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING  STANDARD:  In October 1995, the Financial Accounting
Standards  Board issued  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 123,
ACCOUNTING FOR  STOCK-BASED  COMPENSATION,  which  establishes new standards for
stock-based   employee   compensation   plans.   The  Statement   establishes  a
fair-value-based  method of accounting for  stock-based  compensation  plans and
encourages,  but does not require, entities to adopt that method in place of APB
Opinion No. 25,  ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES,  for all arrangements
under which employees receive shares of stock or other equity instruments of the
employer or the employer incurs liabilities to employees in amounts based on the
price of its stock.  Entities  that elect to continue  under Opinion No. 25 must
disclose pro forma net income (and  earnings per share) for all years  presented
as if Statement No. 123 had been adopted.

The Company does not intend to adopt  Statement  No. 123 in  measuring  expense,
however it must present the pro forma  disclosures  beginning in 1996, and those
pro forma  amounts  will likely  reflect  higher  compensation  expense than the
amounts shown in future statements of operations.

NOTE 2.  LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term  debt as of December  31, 1995  consisted  of a note payable to a bank
payable in monthly  installments of $1,389, plus interest at prime plus 2%, with
final  payment  due in  June  1998  and  collateralized  by  equipment.  Minimum
principal  payments  required on  long-term  debt as of December 31, 1995 are as
follows:

NOTE 3.  REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

During the year ended  December 31, 1994,  the Company  issued 166,670 shares of
mandatorily  redeemable  convertible  preferred stock for total consideration of
$1,000,020.  This stock pays an annual cumulative dividend of $.60 per share and
is  convertible  into common stock on a one for one share basis.  The  preferred
stock is subject to  mandatory  redemption  at $6.00 per share for any shares of
convertible preferred stock which remain outstanding on December 15, 1998.

Company  also issued  433,340  shares of common  stock during 1995 for total net
proceeds  of  $1,247,500  resulting  from a private  placement  of its stock and
conversion  of debt to  equity,  as more  fully  described  in Note 8, at prices
ranging from $2.75 to $3.00 per share.  In  addition,  in December  1995,  stock
subscriptions  for  637,500  shares were  issued to  entities  unrelated  to the
Company for net proceeds of $1,316,230 at prices ranging from $2.00 to $2.75 per
share.  The  Company  received  $449,980  on January 26, 1996 for 250,000 of the
shares subscribed.  Subscriptions for the remaining 387,500 shares have not been
collected and  therefore  are  reflected as a reduction of common  stockholders'
equity.

During the year ended  December 31, 1994,  the Company  issued 614,932 shares of
common stock for total  consideration  of $1,787,279  representing  exercises of
stock  options,  conversion of debt to equity and exempt sales.  The prices paid
ranged  from  $1.00 per share to $4.75  per  share.  In  connection  with  these
transactions,  warrants  to  purchase  275,000  shares at $4.75  per share  were
issued. These warrants expire five years from the issuance date.

STOCK OPTIONS:  The Company adopted a stock option plan in 1993 for the grant of
options to certain key employees,  consultants and directors. In March 1995, the
stock  option  plan was  amended  whereby  the number of shares  authorized  for
issuance was increased from 100,000 shares to 350,000 shares.  Option prices may
not be less than the fair market value at the date of the grant.  In addition to
the stock option plan, the Company has granted  options to certain key employees
and consultants.

NOTE 5.   INCOME TAXES

Effective in April 1994 the Company's  Subchapter S election was terminated.  No
provision for income taxes is reflected in the  statements of operations for the
years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 due to losses  incurred.  Deferred income
taxes related to net operating loss  carryforwards  have not been recognized due
to  uncertainty  of  realization.  The net  operating  losses from 1994 and 1995
expire as follows:

Year Incurred                             Year Expires               Amount
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1994                                      2009               $        227,050
1995                                      2010                      5,676,479
                                                             -----------------
Net operating loss carryforward                              $      5,903,529
                                                             =================

The amount and  availability  of the net  operating  loss  carryforwards  may be
subject to limitations set forth by the Internal  Revenue Code.  Factors such as
the number of shares  ultimately  issued within a three-year  look-back  period;
whether there is a deemed more than 50 percent change in control; the applicable
long-term  tax  exempt  bond  rate;  continuity  of  historical  business;   and
subsequent  income of the  Company  all enter  into the  annual  computation  of
allowable annual utilization of the carryforwards.

NOTE 6.     COMMITMENTS (CONTINUED)

The  agreements  also  provide  that the  Company  will  grant an option to each
employee for 50,000  shares at the end of the fiscal year in which the Company's
annual  after-tax  earnings first are $3,000,000 or more. In addition,  for each
subsequent year in which the Company's annual after-tax  earnings increase by an
additional $3,000,000,  the Company will grant an option to each employee for an
additional  50,000  shares.  The  agreements  also provide that the Company will
grant an option to each employee for 25,000 shares at the end of the first month
in which the Company first sells 500,000 or more copies of the magazine,  and at
the end of each subsequent month that monthly sales of the magazine  increase by
an additional 500,000 copies.

The  agreements  also  restrict  the  employee  from  engaging  in  business  in
