                        Report of Independent Auditors


Board of Directors and Stockholders
Taurus Petroleum, Inc.

We  have  audited  the  consolidated balance sheets of Taurus Petroleum, Inc.and
Subsidiaries  as  of  September  30,  1997 and 1996, and the relatedconsolidated
statements  of  operations, stockholders' (deficit) equity andcash flows for the
years then ended.  These consolidated financialstatements are the responsibility
of  the management of Taurus Petroleum,Inc.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion  on  these  consolidatedfinancial  statements  based  on  our  audit.

We  conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditingstandards.
These  standards require that we plan and perform the audits toobtain reasonable
assurance  about  whether  the  financial  statements  are  freeof  material
misstatement.  An  audit includes examining, on a test basis,evidence supporting
the  amounts  and disclosures in the consolidatedfinancial statements.  An audit
also  includes assessing the accountingprinciples used and significant estimates
made  by  management,  as  well  asevaluating  the  overall  financial statement
presentation.  We  believe  thatour  audit  provides  a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In  our  opinion,  the  consolidated financial statements included hereinpresent
fairly,  in  all  material  respects, the financial position of TaurusPetroleum,
Inc.  and Subsidiaries at September 30, 1996, and the results oftheir operations
and  their  cash  flows  for  the  years then ended, inconformity with generally
accepted  accounting  principles.

The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been prepared assuming thatTaurus
Petroleum,  Inc.  will  continue  as a going concern.  As more fullydiscussed in
Note  2,  the  Company  has incurred recurring operating losses andhas a working
capital deficiency.  These conditions raise substantial doubtabout the Company's
ability  to  continue  as  a  going  concern.  These  financialstatements do not
include  any  adjustments  to  reflect  the  possible  futureeffects  on  the
recoverability  and classification of assets or the amountsand classification of
liabilities  that  may  result  from  the  outcome  of  thisuncertainty.

                          September 30, 1997 and 1996


NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT CHANGE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS

In  addition  to the change of ownership and control effective July 1, 1996 (See
Note  2), the Company's business and operations have also changed significantly.
It  has divested itself of all oil and gas assets and will no longer continue in
this  business.  The  Company  plans  to  enter  into  the  adult  entertainment
business.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles  of  Consolidation  ---  The  accompanying  consolidated  financial
statements  include  the  accounts  of  Taurus  Petroleum,  Inc.  ("TPI"  or the
"Company")  and its wholly owned subsidiaries for years ended September 30, 1997
and  1996.  The  Company's  only  significant subsidiary was Ridgeway Exco, Inc.
("Ridgeway").  All  intercompany  balances and transactions have been eliminated
in  consolidation,  and Ridgeway ceased being a subsidiary in fiscal year ending
September  30,  1996.

Effective  July  1,  1996,  SBCA  Holdings,  Inc.  acquired all the common stock
previously  controlled  individually and/or beneficially by Thomas P.  McDonnell
and  Validus  Operating,  Inc.,  (8,262,602  and 20,000,000, respectively) for a
total  of  28,262,602  shares  or  46.87%  of  the Company's common stock.  SBCA
Holdings,  Inc.  exchanged  17,500  shares  of common stock it owns in a private
company,  The  Enigma  Group,  Inc.,  for the aforementioned common stock of the
Company.  SBCA  Holdings,  Inc.  is controlled by Mr.  Stephen E.  Fischer.  The
Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company appointed Mr.  Stephen E.  Fischer to the
Board  of Directors and appointed Mr.  Fischer as Chairman of the Board on April
29,  1996.  The  Company  has entered into business combination discussions with
entities  controlled  by  Mr.  Fischer,  as  well  as  other  entities.

These  financial  statements  have  been  prepared on the "going concern" basis,
which presumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge
its  liabilities  in  the  normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

The  Company's  continuation  as  a  "going  concern"  is  dependent  on  the
establishment  of profitable operations, and upon either the continued financial
support  of  its  principal  shareholders  or upon the ability of the Company to
raise  additional  capital.  Management  is  pursuing various options to attract
capital,  including infusions of cash and mergers.  The outcome of these matters
cannot be predicted at this time.  These financial statements do not include any
adjustments  to  the  amounts  and classification of assets and liabilities that
might  be  necessary  should  the  Company  be  unable  to continue in business.

                       September 30, 1997 and 1996


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Property  and Equipment --- The Company follows the successful efforts method of
accounting  for  its  oil  and  gas  producing activities.  Under this method of
accounting,  all  property  acquisition  costs and well costs of exploratory and
development  wells  are  capitalized  when  incurred,  pending  determination of
whether  the well will be productive.  If any exploratory well is nonproductive,
the  capitalized  costs  of  drilling  the  well,  net of any salvage value, are
charged  to expense.  The cost of development wells are capitalized, whether the
well  is  productive  or  unproductive.  Unproved  properties  are  assessed
periodically to determine whether there has been a decline in value, and if such
decline  is  indicated,  a loss is recognized.  Geological and geophysical costs
and  the costs of carrying and retaining undeveloped properties, including delay
rentals,  are  expenses  as  incurred.

Depreciation  and depletion are computed separately on each individual prospect.
Proved  property  leasehold  and  mineral  rights  are  depleted on the unit-of-
production  method  over  the  estimated total proved reserves of the individual
prospects.  Completed  well  costs  are  depreciated  on  the unit-of-production
method  over  the  estimated  proved  developed  reserves  of  each  well.

The  Company  uses  the  present  value  of  net revenue from proved oil and gas
reserves,  based  on constant prices in assessing the recorded net investment in
proved  oil  and  gas  properties.

Depreciation  of  other  property and equipment is computed on the straight-line
method  over  estimated  useful  lives  ranging  from  5  to  10  years.

Federal  Income  Tax  ---  The  Company  records  income  taxes  under Financial
Accounting  Standards  Board  Statement No.  109 using the liability method (See
Note 3).  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by
using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences
are  expected  to  reverse.  Prior to the adoption of Statement No.  109, income
tax  expense was determined using the deferred method.  Deferred tax expense was
based  on  items  of income and expense that were reported in different years in
the  financial  statements  and tax returns and were measured at the tax rate in
effect  in  the  year  the  differences  originated.

Loss Per Common Share --- Loss per common share was computed by dividing the net
loss  by  the  weighted  average  number of common shares outstanding during the
respective  periods.

Cash  Equivalents  ---  For  purposes of the statement of cash flows, all highly
liquid  investments  with  original  maturities  of  three  months  or  less are
considered  to  be  cash  equivalents.

                          September 30, 1997 and 1996


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Oil  and  Gas Sales --- The Company recognizes revenue for its oil and gas sales
when  produced  and  delivered  to  the  purchaser.

Gas  Balancing  ---  The  Company  recognizes  the  sale  of gas when the gas is
produced  and  delivered to the purchasers.  At this time the Company's exposure
with  respect  to  gas  imbalances is minimal.  The Company has no gas imbalance
situations  involving  its operated properties.  Outside operated properties may
have  gas  imbalance situations.  However, if present, the effect to the Company
would  be  minimal,  due  to  the  Company's small ownership in outside operated
properties.

NOTE  3  -  NOTES  PAYABLE

At  September  30,  1995,  notes  payable  consisted  of  unsecured notes in the
original amounts of $99,000 and $50,000 due in monthly installments through 2002
and  2004, respectively.  The notes were payable to Validus Operating, Inc.  and
bear  interest  at  the  prime rate of six and one half percent at September 30,
1995.  These  notes  were  extinguished  as  part of the change of ownership and
control  effective  July  1,  1996.

NOTE  4  -  INCOME  TAXES

Deferred  income  taxes  reflect  the  net  tax effects of temporary differences
between  the  carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.  There are no significant
temporary  differences.

Deferred  tax assets consist of the Company's net operating losses.  Due to past
operating losses and the probable limitations on the future use of the operating
loss  carryforwards  as  discussed  below,  a  valuation allowance to offset the
deferred  tax  assets  has  been  established  at  September  30,  1996.

As a result of the business and ownership changes discussed in Notes 1 and 6, it
is unlikely that the Company will ever be able to utilize the net operating loss
carryforwards  or  unused investment tax credits that have accumulated over past
years.

NOTE 5 - STOCK OPTIONS AND COMPENSATION

On  April  24,  1986,  the  Board of Directors of TPI adopted the 1986 Incentive
Stock  Option  Plan  (the  "Option Plan"), reserving 500,000 shares for issuance
under  the Option Plan.  Under the Option Plan, the Board of Directors may grant
options  to  the  officers and key employees of TPI and its subsidiaries.  As of
September  30,  1991,  all  options  granted  under  this plan have expired.  At
September  30,  1995,  options to purchase 500,000 shares remained available for
grant  under  the  plan,  however,  the  plan  was terminated on April 24, 1996.

NOTE  6  -  MAJOR  CUSTOMERS

Sales  to  individual  customers which as a percentage of total revenue exceeded

NOTE 7 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Prior  to  July  1, 1996, TPI was operated by Validus Operating, Inc.  (Validus)
under  a Management Agreement, which was originally effective April 1, 1990, and
has  been extended through January 31, 1996.  Under the terms of this agreement,
Validus  is  entitled  to $10,000 per month for its services.  Validus is an oil
and gas operating company controlled by Thomas P.  McDonnell ("McDonnell").  Mr.
McDonnell  currently  serves as a member of the Board of Directors.  On December
7,  1992, the Company issued 20,000,000 shares of TPI Common Stock to Validus at
$.005  per share as consideration for $100,000 of the management fees payable to
Validus.  In  addition,  TPI  converted  the remaining management fee payable at
September  30,  1992  of $99,000 to a long-term note payable.  Also on September
30,  1993,  TPI  converted  an additional $50,000 of management fee payable to a
long-term  note  payable.  The principal of both notes would have been amortized
over  a  10-year period at the prevailing monthly prime rate of interest.  In an
effort  to  eliminate  the  liabilities  of  the Company, the Board of Directors
decided  to  divest all of the oil and gas assets of the Company in exchange for
the  extinguishment  of the debt owed to Validus.  These assets were divested to
Mr.  Thomas  P.  McDonnell, currently the sole shareholder of Validus Operating,
Inc.  The liabilities exceeded the asset value of the Company.  This transaction
was  effective  July  1,  1996.

NOTE 8 - SIGNIFICANT SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On  November  24,  1997,  the  Company  held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
Several  proposals  were  made,  passed and adopted by the Company.  Some of the
more  significant  changes  were  as  follows:

- - - the corporate name is changed to Taurus Entertainment Companies, Inc.
- - - a reverse common stock split was approved whereby stockholders will 
    have one share for each 300 shares previously held (1:300 shares).
- - - the articles of incorporation were amended to reduce the number of 
    authorized shares of post reverse-split common stock par value $0.001 to
    20,000,000 shares.
- - - the articles of incorporation were amended to authorize 10,000,000 
    shares of preferred stock.

The  estimate  of  proved reserves and related valuations for 1997 and 1996 were
determined  by  an  independent  petroleum-engineering  firm.  The  standardized
measure  of  discounted  future  net  cash  flows relating to proved oil and gas
reserves  and  the changes in standardized measure of discounted future net cash
flows  relating to proved oil and gas reserves were presented in accordance with
the  provisions  of  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standard No. 69.  The
standardized  measure does not purport to represent the fair market value of the
Company's  proved  oil and gas reserves.  An estimate of fair market value would
also  take  into  account,  among  other  factors, anticipated future changes in
prices  and costs and a discount factor more representative of the time value of
money  and  the  risks  inherent  in  reserve estimates.  Under the standardized
measure  future  cash  inflows  were  computed  by  applying  year-end prices to
estimated  future  production  of  year-end  reserves.  Future  production  and
development  costs are computed by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in
developing  and  producing the proved oil and gas reserves at year-end, based on
year-end  costs  and  assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.  No
future  income  taxes  are  reflected  due to the effect of tax credits and loss
carryforwards  related  to  oil  and  gas producing activities.  Future net cash
flows  are  discounted  at  a  rate  of  10% annually to derive the standardized
measure  of  discounted  future  net  cash  flows.

The  lessee  of  the  Enigma Location is Atcomm Services, Inc. ("Atcomm"), which

terms of a four year unsecured promissory note of Broadstreets, payable monthly,
in  arrears and bearing interest at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum.  The
Atcomm  Agreement  was the result of negotiations between the Company and Atcomm

of  the  sexually  oriented business permit owned by Atcomm, current revenues of
Atcomm  and the leasehold rights held by Atcomm.  Atcomm was owned by the son of
Stephen  E. Fischer, a director of the Company.  Mr. Fischer abstained on voting

the  assets  of  Citation  which  the Company estimated, based upon the existing
lease,  the  estimated  value  of  the  real  estate  and  the  options,  to  be
approximately  $2,500,000.  Eric  Langan,  Chairman  of the Board of the Company

Stockholders  an  aggregate  of  525,000  shares  of common stock of the Company
valued  at  $1.00  per  share.  The XTC Agreement was the result of negotiations
between  the  Company and the XTC Stockholders and was based on numerous factors
including  the  Company's  estimate  of the value of the assets of XTC which the
Company  estimated,  based  upon current operations and future revenues from its
three  existing  adult  nightclubs  to  be  approximately $525,000. Eric Langan,
Chairman  of  the  Board  of  the  Company  and  Mitchell White, director of the
Company,  are  the sole stockholders of XTC.  Messrs. Langan and White abstained
on  voting  on  this  transaction.

Treatment  of  the excess cash consideration paid for the acquired businesses is
accounted  for  as  a  deemed  dividend  in  accordance  with generally accepted
accounting  principles.  Goodwill  was  not  recorded since this transaction was
consummated  with  related  parties  and this treatment would have constituted a
step-up  in  basis.  The transaction is reflected in the financial statements on
the  date  the  transaction  occurred  of  December 31, 1997, in accordance with
generally  accepted  accounting  principles.

10,000,000  shares  of  preferred  stock.

NOTE  4  -  GOING  CONCERN
- - --------------------------

On  May  5,  1998,  a  fire  damaged  the  adult entertainment facility known as
Broadstreets  Cabaret.  The  Company  anticipates  that Broadstreets will remain
closed for at least 60 to 90 days during which time the Company plans to remodel
the  club.  The Company believes this event will result in a material decline in
revenues  during  the  closure  of  Broadstreets  and  until  it  reopens  and
re-establishes  the  business.  The  Company  believes  that  it  has  adequate
insurance  to  cover  this  property  damage.  However,  the  re-opening date of
Broadstreets  is  projected  to  be  mid-October,  1998.

These  financial  statements  have  been  prepared on the "going concern" basis,
which presumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge
its  liabilities  in  the  normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

The  Company's  continuation  as  a  "going  concern"  is  dependent  on  the
establishment  of profitable operations, and upon either the continued financial
support  of  its  principal  shareholders  or upon the ability of the Company to
raise  additional  capital.  Management  is  pursuing various options to attract
capital,  including infusions of cash and mergers.  The outcome of these matters
cannot be predicted at this time.  These financial statements do not include any
adjustments  to  the  amounts  and classification of assets and liabilities that
might  be  necessary  should  the  Company  be  unable  to continue in business.
