PART I
ITEM 1 - BUSINESS
D. H. Marketing & Consulting, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under
the laws of the State of Nevada on September 8, 1994 for the purpose of
acquiring D. H. Marketing & Consulting, Inc., a New York corporation (D. H.
Marketing-New York). D. H. Marketing-New York was organized on January 6, 1994
and has been actively engaged in business operations since that time. On
September 29, 1994, the Company entered into a merger agreement with D.H.
Marketing-New York in a transaction in which the Company was the surviving
entity. The Company is segmented into four distinct operations, consisting of
the burn-cleansing solution division, network marketing division, collectible &
fine art division and the acquisitions & consulting division.
Burn-Cleansing Solution Division
In 1986, the PREVOR Laboratory of Valmondois, France, developed a
revolutionary chemical burn cleaning solution. Unlike current rinsing
solutions that dilute chemicals while they continue to burn the skin and eyes,
diphoterine absorbs the burning molecules on contact, preventing additional
exposure to the skin. Diphoterine is effective on the skin and eyes for burns
resulting from caustic acids, bases and solvent. Testimonies from European
Fortune 500 Companies credit diphoterine for improving productivity, decreasing
absence, preventing permanent injury and improving employee safety.
Diphoterine is effective on the skin and eyes for burns caused by all
acids, bases and caustic solvents except white phosphor and hydrofluoric acid.
Hexafluorine was developed specifically for use against burns caused by
hydrofluoric acid. Both cleansing solutions have been in use in Europe for
more than six years. European users include Rohm and Haas, IBM, Proctor and
Gamble, BASF and DuPont. A Rhone Poulenc five year study showed use of
diphoterine decreased both the number of chemical spatters reported and the
number of employees requiring emergency treatment due to chemical burns.
Any employee exposed to acids, bases and caustic solvents is at risk of
being injured as a result of a chemical spatter. Current good manufacturing
practices require cleansing solutions be in close proximity to these employees.
But current solutions dilute and wash away only some of the chemical while the
remaining chemical continues to attack the body, causing permanent injury and
scarring. Diphoterine and hexafluorine are chemical burn cleansing solutions
that will absorb all the caustic chemical, normalizing pH levels and stop the
burning within seconds.
There were 60,000 individuals in 1993 requiring emergency treatment due to
chemical burns at an average cost of over $50,000. The Company believes that
use of diphoterine and hexafluorine in the work place will decrease the number
of individuals permanently injured from chemical spatters.
Network Marketing Division
During the second quarter of 1995, the Company became a Representative
within Universal Network, Inc.'s Network Marketing system. In the system,
representatives sell products and qualify retail sales centers with items of
intrinsic and/or collectible value. In addition, by purchasing these items,
representatives are also eligible to earn commission and/or sell products.
At the close of 1995, the Company had earned over $136,00 in commissions
and was the third largest dollar earner within the entire system. At the close
of 1996, the Company had earned over $550,000 in commissions and was the
largest dollar earner within the entire system.
The network marketing system was developed and is governed by Universal
Network, Inc., and its parent company Universal Network of America, Inc.
("Universal").
During the calendar year ending December 31, 1997, the business
relationship between Universal and D. H. Marketing matured significantly.
Universal acquired a substantial portion of its inventory from the Company,
totaling $4,986,554, thereby becoming the Company's largest customer of its
Collectibles and Fine Art Division, concurrent with the Company's continued
performance as Universal's largest Distributor within the Network Marketing
system. D. H. Marketing, through satisfaction of open receivables from
Universal with that company's Treasury Stock, became a shareholder of
Universal.
On December 31, 1997, D. H. Marketing & Consulting, Inc. acquired the
balance of all the issued and outstanding capital stock of Universal Network of
America, Inc. through a stock exchange agreement. Universal Network of America,
Inc. now operates as, and functionally is, a wholly-owned subsidiary of D. H.
Marketing & Consulting, Inc.
Collectible Division
The Company's collectible and fine art division is involved with the
purchase and sale of valuable and rare stamps, coins, fine art and other
tangible asset collectibles. Principals of the Company are experts at locating
and negotiating transactions to acquire investment-grade collectibles. Clients
are then able to purchase these items directly from the Company. By selecting
only the most valuable, highest quality, and most collectible pieces, both the
Company and its clients profit from the transaction.
Total revenue for this division totaled just over $58,000 in 1995, over
$1,172,698 in 1996 and $2,035,611 in 1997, having been discounted in 1997 to
eliminate sales of inventory to Universal Network, Inc., now a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company. The substantial increase in sales was partially
attributable to time. This division commenced activity already one half way
through 1995. However, this gain in sales is more attributable to the Company's
increased ability to participate in more sizable and profitable activities as a
result of its increased asset base and cash position.
Acquisitions and Consulting Division
The Acquisitions and Consulting Division commenced activities late in the
third quarter of 1996, acquiring 42% of Qualtronics Corporation, Inc., a
contract manufacturer of electromechanical and electronic devices, as well as
providing consultation services to Universal Network, Inc. and Qualtronics
Corporation, Inc. The Company acquired an additional 55% of Qualtronics
Corporation, Inc. on January 9, 1997. On February 5, 1998, the Company sold its
total interest in Qualtronics Corporation, Inc.
The Company also acquired all the issued and outstanding capital stock of
Universal Network of America, Inc. throughout 1997. Immediate future activity
in this division is not expected as the Company allocates all available
resources toward developing its Network Marketing operations through its newly
acquired subsidiary, Universal Network of America, Inc. and that company's
subsidiary, Universal Network, Inc.
ITEM 2 - PROPERTIES
From February 1, 1996 to January 31, 1998, the Company leased
approximately 2,600 square feet in Milford, Pennsylvania. The Company is
currently leasing approximately 1,200 square feet in Hawley, Pennsylvania at an
annual cost of $4,800. The current lease expires January 31, 1999.
The Company had also occupied approximately 1500 square feet of space in
Las Vegas, Nevada from December, 1996 through December 31, 1997.
The Company has re-opened an office of approximately 1,000 square feet in
Vancouver, British Columbia for its Canadian subsidiary, FCS, at an annual cost
of $4,500.
The Company's subsidiary, Universal Network, Inc., occupies both an office
and warehouse space in Sarasota, Florida totaling approximately 6,000 square
feet at an annual cost of $67,152. Current commitments on the properties will
expire December 1, 1998 for the office space and May 1, 1999 for the warehouse
space.
ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings and,
to the best of its knowledge, no such action by or against the Company has been
threatened.
ITEM 4 - SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
Holders of the Common Stock are not entitled to accumulate their votes for
the election of directors or otherwise. Accordingly, the holders of a majority
of the shares present at a meeting of shareholders will not be able to elect
all of the directors of the Company and the minority shareholders will not be
able to elect a representative to the Company's Board of Directors.

ITEM 6 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Overview
The Company's Initial Public Offering became effective with the Securities
Exchange Commission on August 11, 1995. The Company completed its initial
public offering October 11, 1995, having sold 119,000 shares and received net
proceeds of $537,990.
The proceeds of the Initial Public Offering significantly increased the
Company's working capital, cash availability, inventory and general business
capabilities. Shares first traded on the NASD Bulletin Board on January 4, 1996
at $5 per share under the symbol "DHMK." As a result of a three for one forward
stock split effective February 25, 1997, the symbol was temporarily changed to
"DHMG."
The Company is segmented into four distinct operations, consisting of the
Network Marketing Division, the Collectible Division, Acquisitions and
Consulting Division and the Burn Cleansing Solution Division. At December 31,
1995, the Company's headquarters were located in Tarrytown, New York, with
regional offices in Vancouver, British Columbia and Hawley, Pennsylvania. As of
February 1, 1996, the Company relocated its headquarters from Tarrytown, New
York to Milford, Pennsylvania. During the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company
opened a West Coast Relations Office in Las Vegas, Nevada and had plans to
reopen its offices in Vancouver, British Columbia during the second quarter of
1997. As of December 31, 1997, the Company had re-opened its Vancouver, British

Liquidity
During 1995 and 1994, the first two years of operation, the Company
invested significant amounts of capital in formulated its business plan,
establishing market penetration and presence, and preparing and completing
its Initial Public Offering. During this two-year period, the Company
experienced insufficient levels of sales to meet operating needs. This resulted
in operating losses for 1994 and 1995 of $183,657 and $192,852 respectively.
The Company supplemented cash availability by issuing stock in 1994 through a
private placement and in 1995 through the Initial Public Offering. As a result
of this Initial Public Offering and most attributable to the subsequent
earnings of the Company throughout 1996 and continued earnings in 1997, the
Company's operating needs are more than adequately met with the current level
of sales. Total Current Assets as of December 31, 1997 totaled $7,672,482.
Capital Resources
On December 31, 1995, the Company had $382,934 in total current assets, of
which $171,098 was held in cash and cash equivalents and $142,268 was held in
inventory at the lower of cost or market value.
On December 31, 1996, the Company managed to increase total current assets
to $1,512,321, of which $147,572 was held in cash and cash equivalents,
$253,902 was held in Certificates of Deposit, $462,026 was held in Accounts
Receivable net of allowances and $496,776 was in inventory at the lower of cost
or market.
By December 31, 1997, the Company had $6,976,966 in total current assets,
of which $706,609 was held in cash and cash equivalents and $5,559,132 was held
in inventory at the lower of cost or market value.
Cash Expenditures
Total general and administrative expenses increased from 1994 to 1995 from
$183,193 to $380,000. The most significant expenditures were Salaries and
Wages, Outside Services and Consulting Fees, most of which indirectly related
to the Company's Initial Public Offering. The Company had previously reported
total general and administrative expenses for 1995 of $366,900. However, a
change in accounting policy reallocated a prior Credit of Commission advance
from General and Administrative Expenses to Other Income. There is no net
effect on earnings.
Total general and administrative expenses increased from 1995 to 1996 from
$380,000 to $528,038. The most significant increases in expenditures were
directly related to the Company's increased sales activity and business
operation, including Salaries and Wages, Office Expenditures and
Requalification of the Company's network marketing sales centers.
Total general and administrative expenses increased from 1996 to 1997 from
$528,038 ($507,109 excluding amortization and depreciation) to $2,350,736.
During 1997, the Company pursued many activities in the interests of its
shareholders, including the engagement of expert legal and financial counsel
related to its acquisition of Universal Network of America, Inc. and
divestiture of Acquisitions & Sales, Inc. (completion of the divestiture
occurred in 1998). These services where performed by unrelated parties.
Increases of general salaries and wages costs did not contribute significantly
to the increased general and administrative expenses.
Long Term Debt
The Company has satisfactorily retired all Long Term Debt. The Company's
subsidiary, Qualtronics Corporation, Inc., held long-term debt of $42,149 at
December 31, 1997. The Company has since divested itself of its interest in
Qualtronics Corporation, Inc. on February 5, 1998.
Revenue
Total revenue increased from 1994 to 1995 from $44,200 to $245,466 most
significantly as a result of the Company's network marketing division,
representing $136,425 of total revenue. In the network marketing division,
representatives qualify Retail Sales Centers with items of intrinsic value,
and earn commissions or product as the system is being built around them.
Items that can be purchased include jewelry, authentic leafs from the
First Edition of Noah Webster's American Dictionary of the English Language,
authentic leafs from original issue King James Bible and collectible numismatic
Morgan Silver dollars. Representatives then earn commissions corresponding to
the sale volume generated at their portion of the network.
Total revenue, less discounts, increased from 1995 to 1996 from $245,466
to $1,767,356, most significantly as a result of an increase in network
marketing sales from $136,425 to $556,393 and an increase in collectible sales
from $58,500 to $1,172,698. The Company also added a new division, Acquisitions
and Consulting, that attributed toward $250,000 of the total increase.
The network marketing division was in operation approximately 60% of the
1995 fiscal year. Therefore, principles expected at least a portion of the
increased revenues in 1996 from this Division.
Total revenue increased from 1996 to 1997 from $1,767,356 to $5,509,042,
of which $2,503,684 were sales recorded by its subsidiary, Qualtronics
Corporation, Inc. Total revenue increased for every division of the Company
excluding Network Marketing, which decreased 13% to $483,000. Total revenue
of collectible sales were also discounted by $4,986,554, representing sales
of inventory to Universal Network, Inc., now a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of D.H. Marketing & Consulting, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of D.H. Marketing
& Consulting, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash
flows for the year 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. The financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 were audited by other
accountants, who expressed an unqualified opinion on their report dated January
29, 1997.
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 audit provides 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 D.H. Marketing &
Consulting, Inc., and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and the
results of its operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles..

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1997 and 1996
NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a. Nature of Business
D. H. Marketing & Consulting, Inc., a New York corporation, was organized
on January 4, 1994, and was actively engaged in business operations through
September 29, 1994, when the Company merged with D. H. Marketing &
Consulting, Inc., a Nevada corporation, incorporated under the
laws of the State of Nevada on September 8, 1994, for the purpose of
acquiring D. H. Marketing, New York. The Company's operations consist of
distribution of chemical burn cleansing solutions; the purchase and sale
of valuable and rare stamps, coins, fine art, and other tangible
collectibles; network marketing; and general consultation to and possible
acquisition of small growth oriented companies. The Company markets its
products throughout the United States, Canada and Europe.
Qualtronics Corporation, Inc. (QCI), a 97%-owned subsidiary, is a contract
manufacturer, specializing in prototype and low volume electronic and
electro-mechanical assemblies, utilizing surface mount and hybrid micro-
circuit technologies. Qualtronics' customers are predominately in north-
eastern U.S.
On December 30, 1997 the Company completed a share exchange with
Universal Network, Inc. (UNI), wherein the Company issued 1,900,123
shares of common stock for the remaining 76% interest in UNI, thus
making UNI a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. UNI is engaged
in the sale and distribution of fine art, jewelry, bank notes and
other collectables. UNI distributes its products to distributors of the
Company on a binary multi level marketing system.
b. Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DH Marketing
and Consulting, its wholly-owned subsidiaries Acquisition and Sales, Inc.
(ASI) and Financial Communication Services, Inc. (FCS), Qualtronics Corp-
oration, Inc.(QCI), a 97%-owned subsidiary and Universal Network, Inc.,
(UNI) a wholly owned subsidiary at December 30, 1997. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolida-
tion.
Before the acquisition of UNI at December 30, 1997 the Company accounted
for its investment in Universal Network of America, Inc., by the equity
method of accounting under which the Company's share of the net loss of
the affiliate (24%) is recognized as an expense in the Company's statement
of income.
c. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. Uninsured cash balances total
$255,072 at December 31, 1997.

NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
d. Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major replacements and
betterments are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are expensed as
incurred.
Depreciation is provided generally on a straight-line basis over the
estimated service lives of the respective classes of property.
e. Organization Costs
Organization expenses are recorded at cost and are being amortized on a
straight-line basis over five years. The expenses represent pre-
incorporation cost to establish the entity and develop various sales
venues. At December 31, 1997 and 1996, the net unamortized balance was
$72,030 and $28,172, respectively.
f. Client Lists
The Company acquired a client list for $10,000. These costs are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over five years.
g. The company recorded goodwill in the acquisition of QCI, due to the
excess cost over the net book value of QCI. Goodwill is being amortized
over 10 years on the straight-line method.
h. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Unless otherwise indicated, the fair values of all reported assets and
liabilities which represent financial instruments (none of which are
held for trading purposes) approximate the carrying values of such
amounts.
i. Provision for Income taxes
Deferred income taxes arise from timing differences resulting from income
and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in
different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or noncurrent,
depending on the classification of the assets and liabilities to which
they relate. Deferred taxes arising from timing differences that are not
related to an asset or liability are classified as current or noncurrent,
depending on the periods in which the timing differences are expected to
reverse.
The principal sources of timing differences are different depreciation
methods used for financial accounting and tax purposes.

j. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally

and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. In these financial statements, assets,
liabilities and earnings involve extensive reliance on managements
estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
k. Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The computation of earnings per share of common stock is based on the
weighted average number of shares outstanding at the date of the financial
statements.

==============
No options were exercised, forfeited, or expired during the period
January 1, 1997, to December 31, 1997. The weighted-average price for
the above-noted options is $8.95 and $6.88 for 1997 and 1996, respectively.
At December 31, 1997, the Company's stock option plan was accounted for
based upon APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations. Accordingly, no
compensation cost has been recognized for options under these plans. Had
compensation cost for the plan been determined based on the grant date and
fair values of options, and estimated options to be exercised, reported
net income and earnings per share would have been reduced. Management
does not believe any of the current options will be exercised.
The fair value of the stock options granted during 1996 and 1997 were
determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the
following assumptions for 1996 and 1997: risk-free interest rates of
6.02% and 6.55%; expected options life of 3 years and 4 years; and
volatility of 35% and 25% with no dividend yield in either year.
