FEBRUARY 28, 1997
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and
include the accounts of Bernard Haldane Associates, Inc. ("Haldane") and its
subsidiaries.
NOTE 1
In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim consolidated financial
statements contain all material and significant adjusting and eliminating
entries consisting only of normal recurring adjustments and eliminations
necessary to present fairly the financial condition as of February 28, 1997
and the results of operations and cash flows for the nine months then ended.
The results of operations for the nine month period ended February 28, 1997
are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the year
ended May 31, 1997.
NOTE 2
The Company utilizes Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,

NOTE 4
On May 31, 1996, the Company adopted a plan to terminate its travel agency
operations. The operations were disposed of in December 1996. The operating
results of the travel agency segment for the nine and three months ended
February 28, 1997 are shown separately in the accompanying consolidated
income statement. The 1996 consolidated statements of income and cash flows
have been restated to segregate the operating results of the travel agency
segment. Revenues of the travel agency segment, net of direct expenses
amounted to $67,027 and $-0- for the nine and three months ended February 28,
1997, respectively, and $79,383 and $89,874 for the nine and three months
ended February 29, 1996, respectively, and are not included in consolidated
revenues.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT"S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATION
NINE MONTHS ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 1996
VS.
NINE MONTHS ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 1996
Royalty payments from licensee offices for the nine months and three
months periods ended February 29, 1997 totaled $1,775,923 and $578,590 as
compared to $1,624,003 and $516,570 during the same periods in the prior fiscal
year. The Company has recognized a total of $131,140 in revenues from the sale
of territorial licenses as compared to no revenues at all in the prior period.
Additional revenues for the quarter ended February 28, 1997 include
$79,516 in interest and dividend income for the nine months ended February 28,
1997 as compared to $119,226 during the nine months ended February 29, 1996.
Total revenues for the nine months ended February 28, 1997 as compared to
February 29, 1997 were $1,986,579 as compared to $1,743,329. This 14% increase
in revenues is due primarily to the growth of the Haldane system. Similar
increases in revenues were reported for the three month period increasing from
$562,246 to $649,042. The 14% gain in revenues was offset by a 21% increase in
expenses increasing from $1,092,773 to $1,327,212. The Company has had to hire
additional staff to properly oversee the Haldane operations. In addition, the
Company is incurring certain start-up costs in connection with the launch of its
First Career program, a career consulting program targeted at graduating college
seniors.
As a result of increased expenses, net income after taxes remains almost
constant at $428,941 as compared to $428,940. With fewer issued and outstanding
shares as a result of the Company's share repurchase program, net income per
share increased from $.35 per share to $.42 per share.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
FEBRUARY 28, 1997 AS COMPARED TO MAY 31, 1996
Total current assets as of February 28, 1997 were $2,673,097 as compared
to $2,147,294, an increase of 24%. More than $285,000 of this increase is
attributable to notes receivable arising from the sale of territorial licenses.
Total assets have increased from $3,424,830 to $3,959,292.
Total current liabilities increased from $395,651 to $587,968 and total
liabilities increased from $951,450 to $1,112,086. Despite this increase of
nearly 50% in current liabilities, management does not anticipate any cash flow
problems.
Management believes that the Company has sufficient revenues to finance
ongoing business activities.
