                                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                    For The Three and Six Months Ended October 31, 1995 and 1996

NOTE 1 - UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

    The unaudited interim financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion
of the management of the Company,  contain all  adjustments,  consisting of only
normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position at
October 31, 1996,  the results of  operations  of the three and six months ended
October 31, 1995 and 1996, and the cash flows for the three and six months ended
October 31, 1995 and 1996.  The results of operations for the three months ended
October 31, 1996 are not necessarily  indicative of the results of operations to
be expected for the full fiscal year ended April 30, 1997.  Reference is made to
the Company's Form 10-KSB, for the year ended April 30, 1996.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND 
FINANCIAL
         CONDITION

Results of Operations

    Sales increased in the 1996 periods  compared to 1995 due to increased sales
volume.  Gross  margin was  essentially  unchanged  in 1996 as compared to 1995.
Operating expenses were significantly lower in the 1996 period due to management
cost cutting efforts.

Liquidity

    As of October 31,  1996,  the  Company's  working  capital  was $8,194.  The
Company's working capital position was enhanced as compared to April 30, 1996 by
the sale of securities  and proceeds from a  shareholder  loan.  The Company has
also obtained an operating  line of credit from a bank in the amount of $250,000
(CAN).  As of  October  31,  1996,  the  amount  used on the line of credit  was
$71,042.

    The  Company  anticipates  its  need for cash  over the next 12  months  for
general and  administrative  expenses  to be $50,000  per month.  This amount is
expected to be provided from  operations  and provided by private  placements of
debt or equity.  The  Company  has no specific  plans for any  placement  of its
securities.
