              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)   The  unaudited  financial  statements  and the  related  notes  have  been
prepared  pursuant to the rules and  regulations  of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Accordingly,  certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial  statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting  principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
The  accompanying  financial  statements  and  related  notes  should be read in
conjunction  with the audited  financial  statements  of the Company,  and notes
thereto, for the year ended December 31, 1996.

The  information  furnished  reflects,   in  the  opinion  of  management,   all
adjustments,  consisting  of normal  recurring  accruals,  necessary  for a fair
presentation of the results of the interim periods presented.

The unaudited  financial  statements have been prepared with the assumption that
the Company is a going concern.  While management has ceased  publication of all
magazines,  management  has  announced  that it is has reached an  agreement  in
principal  and is in the  process  of  finalizing  a  transaction  with  Group V
Corporation, a diversified  telecommunications and software services company, to
jointly reorganize, develop and market the publishing assets of the Company.

The joint venture  agreement  contemplates the incorporation of a new subsidiary
of Group V, into which LottoWorld will assign its publishing  assets and Group V
will provide funding.

The proposed agreement would provide increased  marketing channels for Group V's
wholly-owned  subsidiary,  National Pools  Corporation  (NPC). This venture will
also  facilitate the immediate  introduction of NPC's  Hit-LoTTo(TM)  group play
program in multiple state,  accelerating NPC's original forecasted rollout. Once
the  definitive  agreement  has been  signed and the  transfer  of  LottoWorld's
publishing assets is finalized,  NPC expects  Hit-LoTTo(TM) to be operational in
several states within 12 months.

(2)   The net (loss) per common share  amounts are  computed  using the weighted
average number of common outstanding during the periods.

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


On June 18, 1997 the Company's securities were delisted from the Nasdaq SmallCap
Market for failure to meet the listing  requirements.  The Company's  securities
are not listed on the OTC Bulletin Board.

The unaudited  financial  statements have been prepared with the assumption that
the Company is a going concern.  While management has ceased  publication of all
magazines,  management  has  announced  that it is has reached an  agreement  in
principal  and is in the  process  of  finalizing  a  transaction  with  Group V
Corporation, a diversified  telecommunications and software services company, to
jointly reorganize, develop and market the publishing assets of the Company.

The joint venture  agreement  contemplates the incorporation of a new subsidiary
of Group V, into which LottoWorld will assign its publishing  assets and Group V
will provide funding.

The proposed agreement would provide increased  marketing channels for Group V's
wholly-owned  subsidiary,  National Pools  Corporation  (NPC). This venture will
also  facilitate the immediate  introduction of NPC's  Hit-LoTTo(TM)  group play
program in multiple state,  accelerating NPC's original forecasted rollout. Once
the  definitive  agreement  has been  signed and the  transfer  of  LottoWorld's
publishing assets is finalized,  NPC expects  Hit-LoTTo(TM) to be operational in
several states within 12 months.

The  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company  authorized  the  redemption  of its
Redeemable  Convertible  Preferred  Stock after  giving  those  shareholders  an
opportunity  to convert those shares into common  stock.  Holders of $250,000 of
the preferred  stock  converted those shares into common stock and in July 1997,
the remaining  shares were redeemed.  Funds needed for the redemption  have been
kept in escrow since the issuance of those preferred stock. The funds related to
the converted $250,000 shares has been used by the Company for working capital.
