NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
McM Corporation and Subsidiaries
March 31, 1995
Note A -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include
all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. The statements include all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair statement of the results.
For further information regarding the significant accounting policies,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included
in McM's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994.
NOTE B -- INCOME TAXES
The income tax provision is based upon the estimated effective tax
rate for the year. This rate varies from the normal federal income tax rate of
thirty-four percent (34%) because of the utilization of tax return net
operating loss carryforwards.
NOTE C -- STOCK OPTION PLAN AND EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per common share are based on 4,675,038 shares of Common
Stock issued and outstanding and exclude the effect of common stock
equivalents. Stock options had no effect on the computation of earnings per
share.
NOTE D -- CONTINGENCIES
Litigation: In the normal course of operations, certain subsidiaries
of the Company have been named as parties to various pending and threatened
litigation. While the outcome of some of these matters cannot be estimated
with certainty, it is the opinion of management, after consultation with legal
counsel, that the resolution of this litigation will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position.

Proposition 103: On November 8, 1988, California voters passed
Proposition 103. Proposition 103 is an initiative that calls for property and
casualty insurers in California, including McM's subsidiary Wilshire Insurance
Company, to roll back their rates by 20% for certain California policies issued
for the twelve month period beginning November 8, 1988. Court decisions,
including that of the United States Supreme Court, have confirmed the
enforceability of Proposition 103, but at the same time have recognized the
need for companies to earn a fair and reasonable return, thereby prohibiting
confiscatory rollbacks. Although Wilshire has not received a rollback order at
this time, California's current rollback worksheet calculation, before
adjustments or corrections peculiar to Wilshire, produces a result of $6.1
million plus interest. Wilshire firmly believes that this worksheet
calculation is based on incomplete and erroneous data. Furthermore, since the
total earnings of Wilshire for the period in question were $4.5 million,
management believes that the unadjusted calculations are clearly confiscatory
and would prevent Wilshire from earning a fair and reasonable rate of return.
Recently elected California Commissioner of Insurance, Charles
Quackenbush, has announced his commitment to work together with companies to
resolve all Proposition 103 rollback issues within the first six months of
1995. The Company is in direct contact with the California Department of
Insurance, but, because of the preliminary stage of these discussions, the
ultimate impact, if any, of Proposition 103 cannot be determined at this time.
Inasmuch as management expects no material rollback liability for Wilshire, no
amounts have been accrued in the financial statements of the Company relating
to Proposition 103.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
McM Corporation and Subsidiaries
Review of Operations
Unaudited results for the three months ended March 31, 1995, show net
income of $594,000 or $.13 per share compared to net income of $414,000 or $.09
per share for the same period in 1994. Consolidated gross revenues for the
first quarter of 1995 were $11,646,000 compared to $11,547,000 for the first
quarter of 1994.
Shareholders' equity at March 31, 1995, totalled $21,280,000 or $4.55
per share compared to $20,407,000 or $4.37 per share at December 31, 1994.
Consolidated assets totalled $135,428,000 at March 31, 1995, compared to
$137,665,000 at December 31, 1994.
Total net premium revenues were $10,590,000 for the first of 1995
compared to $10,335,000 for the same period in 1994, an increase of 2.5%. This
increase in premium reflects the Company's plan of moderate growth in premium
writings which began in the fourth quarter of 1994.
The overall loss and settlement expense ratio for the first quarter of
1995 was relatively unchanged, falling approximately one-half of a percentage
point from the same period in 1994. The loss overall loss ratios were 65.5%
and 66.1% for the first quarters of 1995 and 1994, respectively. Favorable
loss development on reserves of prior accident years, related primarily to the
Company's assumed and discontinued business, contributed to this improvement.
Overall underwriting results for the first quarter of 1995 continue to reflect
the favorable trend established in 1994.
Underwriting, acquisition and administrative expenses for the first
three months of 1995 were approximately $200,000 less than for the same period
last year. This decrease reflects management's continuing effort to enhance
productivity and efficiency in its operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Consolidated gross investment income totalled $1,021,000 for the first
three months of 1995 as compared to $1,006,000 for the same period last year.
The declining trend in investment earnings experienced throughout 1994 resulted
from a reduction in invested assets and overall investment yields. The
improvement in investment earnings for the for quarter of 1995 is attributed
primarily to overall improvement in investment yields. Invested assets
totalled $63,666,000 at March 31, 1995, compared to $67,163,000 at December 31,
1994. Claim liabilities decreased $5.8 million in the first quarter of 1995
and total liabilities decreased $3.1 million in the same period.
9
Consolidated cash used by operating activities was $603,000 for the
first three months of 1995 as compared to $8,337,000 during the same period
last year. The cash used by operating activities reflects an overall decrease
in liabilities of $3.1 million for the first quarter of 1995. Cash and
short-term investments held by the Company at March 31, 1995, were
approximately $18,845,000 as compared to $19,175,000 at December 31, 1994.
The Board of Directors did not declare a dividend to shareholders for
the first quarter of 1995. The Board will carefully consider the Company's
earnings, capital requirements, financial condition, and other relevant factors
when determining whether to declare dividends in the future.
