PART I

ITEM 1 - BUSINESS

General

Nutrition Management Services Company (the "Company" or the "Registrant")
provides food management services to continuing care facilities, hospitals and
retirement communities.

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
on March 28, 1979, and focuses on the continuing care and health-care segments
of the food service market. Its customers include continuing care facilities,
hospitals, and retirement communities.

On May 31, 1994, the Company purchased twenty-two (22) acres of land containing
a 40,000 square foot building formerly used as a restaurant and banquet
facility. The Company has recently renovated the property to serve as a
comprehensive training facility for Company employees. In addition, the facility
will serve as a showroom for prospective customers who will be able to observe
the Company's programs for nursing and retirement home dining and hospital
cafeteria operations. In September 1997, the Company opened the retail
restaurant portion of the Collegeville Inn Conference & Training Center. In
connection therewith, the Company expended approximately $6,000,000 in
renovation work. The Company opened the banquet and training division during its
second quarter of fiscal year 1998. The remaining division of the project was
available for operations in the third quarter of fiscal 2000.

Financial Information About Industry Segments

See Note N on page 19 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Description of Services

The Company provides contract food service to continuing care facilities,
hospitals, and retirement communities. The Company provides complete management
and supervision of the dietary operations in its customers' facilities through
the use of on-site management staff, quality and cost-control programs, and
training and education of dietary staff. The Company's operational districts are
supported by Regional Managers, District Managers, Registered Dietitians and
Quality Assurance staff.


                                       1


The Company seeks to provide food service at a lower cost than self-managed
facilities, while maintaining or improving existing service, nutritional care
standards and regulatory compliance.

Marketing and Sales

The Company's customers include continuing care facilities, hospitals and
retirement communities, which range in size from small individual facilities to
large multi-facility operations. Although many facilities perform their own food
service functions without relying upon outside management firms such as the
Company, the Company expects the market for its services to grow as facilities
increasingly seek to contain costs and are required to comply with increased
governmental regulations.

The Company's services are marketed at the corporate level by its Chief
Executive Officer, its President, and its Marketing Representatives. The
Company's services are marketed primarily through in-person solicitation of
facilities. The Company also utilizes direct mail and participates in industry
trade shows.

Market for Services

The market for the Company's services consists of a large number of facilities
involved in various aspects of the continuing care and health care fields,
including nursing homes, retirement communities, hospitals and rehabilitation
centers. Such facilities may be specialized or general, privately owned or
public, profit or not-for-profit and may serve residents and patients on a
continuing or short-term basis.

Service Agreements

The Company provides its services under several different financial arrangements
including a fee basis and profit and loss basis. As of June 30, 2001 the Company
provided services under various service agreements at 70 facilities. At certain
of these facilities, the Company has contracts to provide vending services in
addition to the contract to provide food services. Most of these contracts have
one year terms and are automatically renewable at the end of each service year.
The agreements generally provide that either party may cancel the agreement upon
ninety (90) days written notice.


                                       2




In consideration for providing its services, the Company expects to be paid by
its clients in accordance with the credit terms agreed upon. Historically, the
Company has not incurred any significant losses related to amounts not collected
for services rendered.

Major Customer

In fiscal 2001, 25% of the Company's revenues were derived from sales to one
customer. The Company anticipates that future revenues will be negatively
impacted by the termination of the relationship with this major customer (See
Item 3).

Competition

The Company competes mainly with regional and national food service management
companies operating in the continuing care and health care industries, as well
as with the self managed departments of its potential clients.

Although the competition to service these facilities is intense, the Company
believes that it competes effectively for new agreements as well as for renewals
of existing agreements based upon the quality and dependability of its services.
The Company's ability to compete successfully depends upon its ability to
maintain and improve quality, service and reliability, to attract and retain
qualified employees and to continue to expand its marketing and service
activities.

Employees

At June 30, 2001, the Company employed a total of approximately 378 employees.
Approximately 213 of those employees serve in various executive, management,
administrative, quality assurance and sales capacities. The remaining 165
employees are primarily dietary workers. A small percentage of the Company's
dietary workers were covered by collective bargaining agreements. The Company
considers relationships with its employees to be satisfactory.

ITEM 2 - PROPERTIES

The Company leases its corporate offices, located at 725 Kimberton Road,
Kimberton, PA 19442, which consists of approximately 8,500 square feet from a


                                       3


corporation controlled by a related party. The initial term of the lease expires
on June 30, 2002.

The Company leases an apartment from a corporation controlled by a related party
to accommodate visiting clients and employees. In addition, the Company is
provided with office space at each of its client facilities.

The Company owns approximately twenty-two acres of land in Collegeville,
Pennsylvania, upon which construction was completed in 1997. The Company
renovated an existing 40,000 square foot building to serve as a training
facility and conference center.

The Company presently owns food service equipment, computers, office furniture,
and equipment, automobiles and trucks. Management believes that all properties
and equipment are sufficient for the conduct of the Company's current
operations.

ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On February 7, 2001, the Company filed suit against a major client, which
represented 25% of the Company's revenues in fiscal 2001, in the Court of Common
Pleas of Chester County, Pennsylvania. In the lawsuit, the Company claims that
the client failed to pay $2.4 million for services rendered by the Company and
the client should reimburse the Company for over $400,000 in start up expenses,
in addition to other claims.

There are no material legal proceedings pending against the Company.

ITEM 4 - SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

Not applicable.


PART II ITEM 5 - MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS

The Company's Class A Common Stock No Par Value, (the "Class A Common Stock") is
traded on the OTC Bulletin Board and is a penny stock. Securities and Exchange
Commission regulations generally define a penny stock to be an equity security
that is not listed on NASDAQ or a national securities exchange and that has a
market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. The
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission require broker-dealers to
deliver to a purchaser of the Company's Class A Common Stock a disclosure


                                       4


schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with it.
Various sales practice requirements are also imposed on broker-dealers who sell
penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited
investors (generally institutions). In addition, broker-dealers must provide the
customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the
compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and
monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in
the customer's account.

The following table shows the range of high and low bid quotations as reported
by OTC Bulletin Board for the quarters ending during the last two fiscal years
for the Class A Common Stock:

ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

Year Ended June 30, 2001 Compared to year Ended June 30, 2000

Revenues for the year ended June 30, 2001 ("Fiscal 2001") decreased by 4.1% to
$40,870,720 compared to revenues of $42,613,918 for the year ended June 30, 2000
("Fiscal 2000"). This decrease is a result of contracts canceled during the
period, offset by growth from new business and growth within existing contracts.
The Company recorded revenues of $9,188,568 and $7,114,407 from a major client
during fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively. The Company anticipates that future
revenues will be negatively impacted by the termination of the relationship with
this major client (See Item 3).

Cost of operations for fiscal 2001 was $33,249,664 compared to $34,025,806 for
similar expenses in fiscal 2000, a decrease of $776,142 or 2.3%. This decrease
in costs of operations is due to lower revenues during the period offset by
inflationary price, wage, and expense increases.

Gross Profit for fiscal 2001 was $7,621,056 or 18.6% of revenue, compared to
$8,588,173 or 21.0% of revenue, a decrease of $967,117 or 11.3%. This decrease
is due to cost of operations increasing at a greater percentage than revenues.

General and Administrative expenses for fiscal 2001 were $5,954,094 or 14.6% of
revenue, compared to $6,461,990 or 15.2% of revenue for fiscal 2000. The
percentage decrease is due to revenues decreasing at a lower rate than the
general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for
fiscal 2001 include $126,404 of development costs related to the Company's
cook-chill food preparation technology.

Depreciation and amortization for fiscal 2001 was $678,242, compared to $731,271
for fiscal 2000. The decrease of $53,029 or 7.3% was due to a decrease in
amortization expenses.

Provision for doubtful accounts for fiscal 2001 was $850,000 compared to
$584,193 for fiscal 2000. The increase of $265,807 is attributable to an
increase in business activities and a change in contractual relationships.

Income from operations for fiscal 2001 was $138,720 or 0.3% of revenue compared
to $810,718 or 1.9% of revenue for fiscal 2000, a decrease of $671,998. This
decrease is due to a decrease in gross profit and an increase in provision for
doubtful accounts offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses.



                                       7


Interest expense for fiscal year 2001 was $486,512 or 1.2% of revenue, compared
to $605,806 or 1.4% of revenue for fiscal 2000. This decrease is primarily due
to a reduction in long term debt of $1,536,723 during fiscal 2001.

For the reasons as stated above, loss before income taxes for fiscal year 2001
was $(324,165) or (0.8)% of revenue compared to the income before income taxes
of $343,480 or 0.8% of revenue for fiscal 2000.

Net loss for fiscal 2001 was $(315,952) or $(0.11) per share as compared to net
income of $163,018 or $0.06 per share for fiscal 2000.

Year Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to year Ended June 30, 1999

Revenues for the year June 30, 2000 ("Fiscal 2000") increased by 9.9% to
$42,613,918 compared to revenues of $38,773,935 for the year ended June 30, 1999
("Fiscal 1999"). The increase results from revenue growth from new business and
growth within existing contracts, offset by contracts canceled during the
period.

Cost of operations for fiscal 2000 was $34,025,806 compared to $31,209,907 for
similar expenses in fiscal 1999, an increase of $2,815,899 or 9.0%. This
increase in cost of operations is due to operating and inflationary price, wage,
and expense increases and related higher revenues during the period.

Gross Profit for fiscal 2000 was $8,588,173, compared to $7,616,254, an increase
of $971,919 or 12.8%. This increase is due to revenues increasing at a greater
percentage than direct expenses.

General and Administrative expenses for fiscal 2000 were $6,461,990 or 15.2% of
revenue, compared to $6,188,531 or 16.0% of revenue for fiscal 1999. The
percentage decrease is due to revenues growing at a greater rate than the
general and administrative expenses.

Depreciation and amortization for fiscal 2000 was $731,271, compared to $831,482
for fiscal 1999. The decrease of $100,211 or 12.1% was due to a decrease in
amortization expenses.

Provision for doubtful accounts for fiscal 2000 was $584,193 compared to
$380,000 for fiscal 1999. The increase of $204,193 is attributable to an
increase in business activities and a change in contractual relationships.

Income from operations for fiscal 2000 was $810,718 or 1.9% of revenue compared
to $216,241 or .5% of revenue for fiscal 1999, an increase of $594,477. This
increase is due to operating efficiencies and an increase in operating revenues.



                                       8


Interest expense for fiscal year 2000 was $605,806 or 1.4% of revenue, compared
to $505,324 or 1.3% of revenue for fiscal 1999. This increase is due to an
increase in market interest rates as well as an increase in equipment financing
activities, which were necessary to support start-up operations associated with
the new business contracts discussed above.

For the reasons as stated above, income before income taxes for the fiscal year
2000 was $343,480 or 0.8% of revenue compared to loss before income taxes
$(126,073) or (.3%) of revenue for fiscal 1999, an increase of $469,553 or
372.5% from fiscal 1999.

Net income for fiscal 2000 was $163,018 or $0.06 per share as compared to net
loss of $(163,227) or ($0.06) per share for fiscal 1999.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2001, the Company had working capital of $2,875,949 as compared to
$4,554,099 at June 30, 2000. This decrease in working capital is primarily
attributable to a decrease in the Company's cash and accounts receivable and an
increase in the Company's accounts payable. The Company's cash and cash
equivalents decreased by $682,845 to $451,875. Cash provided by operations for
fiscal 2001 was $1,103,168, compared to $1,952,538 provided by operations for
fiscal 1999.

Investing activities consumed $249,290 in cash during fiscal 2001 compared to
$338,768 consumed in cash during fiscal 2000. Investing activities for fiscal
2001 include capital expenditures in the amount of $222,523. During fiscal 2001,
financing activities consumed $1,536,723 in cash, compared to $522,332 consumed
in cash during fiscal 2000.

The Company has certain credit facilities with its bank including a revolving
credit of $4,000,000. At June 30, 2001, the Company has $1,687,078 available
under its revolving credit. The Company issued two series of Industrial Bonds
totaling $3,560,548 in December of 1996. The Company is current with all its
obligations to its bank and on its bonds and has met all financial covenants in
its loan documents.

A substantial portion of the Company's revenue is dependent upon the payment of
its fees by customer health care facilities, which, in turn, are dependent upon
third-party payers such as state governments, Medicare and Medicaid. Delays in
payment by third party payers, particularly state and local governments, may
lead to delays in collection of accounts receivable.




                                       9


The Company has no other material commitments for capital expenditures and
believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents, cash from operations and
available revolving credit will be sufficient to satisfy the needs of its
operations and its capital commitments for the next twelve months. However, if
the need arose, the Company would seek to obtain capital from such sources as
continuing debt financing or equity financing.

Effects of Inflation

Substantially all of the Company's agreements with its customers allow the
Company to pass through to its customers its increases in the cost of labor,
food and supplies. The Company believes that it will be able to recover
increased costs attributable to inflation by continuing to pass through cost
increases to its customers.

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Nutrition Management Services Company


            We have  audited the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets of
Nutrition  Management  Services Company and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2001
and 2000, and the related consolidated  statements of operations,  stockholders'
equity,  and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30,
2001. These  consolidated  financial  statements are the  responsibility  of the
Company's  management.  Our  responsibility  is to  express  an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

            We  conducted  our  audits in  accordance  with  auditing  standards
generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain  reasonable  assurance about whether the
consolidated  financial statements are free of material  misstatement.  An audit
includes  examining,  on a test  basis,  evidence  supporting  the  amounts  and
disclosures in the  consolidated  financial  statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall consolidated  financial statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

            In our opinion,  the consolidated  financial  statements referred to
above present  fairly,  in all material  respects,  the  consolidated  financial
position of Nutrition  Management  Services  Company and its  subsidiaries as of
June 30, 2001 and 2000,  and the  consolidated  results of their  operations and
their cash flows for each of the three years in the period  ended June 30, 2001,
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.

            We  have  also  audited  the  schedule  of  valuation  accounts  for
Nutrition  Management Services  Corporation and its subsidiaries for each of the
three years in the period ended June 30, 2001.  In our  opinion,  this  schedule
presents fairly, in all material  respects,  the information  required to be set
forth therein.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                             June 30, 2001 and 2000


NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

     Nutrition  Management Services Company (the Company) was organized on March
     28, 1979, to provide professional management expertise and food services to
     continuing  care and health care  facilities in the domestic United States.
     The Company  competes  mainly  with  regional  and  national  food  service
     management companies as well as self-managed departments.  Apple Management
     Services (Apple  Management),  a wholly owned subsidiary,  was organized on
     November  25,  1991,  to  provide   management   service   expertise.   The
     Collegeville Inn Conference and Training  Center,  Inc.  (Collegeville  Inn
     located  in  Lower  Providence  Township,  Pennsylvania),  a  wholly  owned
     subsidiary,  was  organized  on April 29,  1994.  This  facility  opened in

     service   business.   Apple  Fresh  Food's  operation  is  located  in  the
     Collegeville Inn.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     1.  Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
         -----------------------------------------

     The accompanying  consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
     the Company and its wholly owned  subsidiaries.  Intercompany  transactions
     and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in conformity  with  accounting
     principles  generally  accepted  in the United  States of America  requires
     management  to make  estimates  and  assumptions  that affect the  reported
     amounts of assets and liabilities  and disclosure of contingent  assets and
     liabilities  at the  date of the  financial  statements  and  the  reported
     amounts of  revenues  and  expenses  during the  reporting  period.  Actual
     results could differ from those estimates.  The Company's  primary estimate
     is its allowance for doubtful accounts.

     2.  Cash and Cash Equivalents
         -------------------------

     Cash equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid investments with an
original maturity of three months or less when purchased.

     3.  Unbilled Revenue
         ----------------

     Unbilled revenue represents  amounts for services provided,  but not billed
     as of the balance sheet date.

     4.  Inventory
         ---------

     Inventory, which consists primarily of food, is stated at the lower of cost
     (first-in,  first-out method) or market.  The Company records inventory for
     contracts which require goods to be owned. For the remaining  customers,  a
     payable or receivable is recorded for the goods  purchased on behalf of the
     Company's customers, and billed back to customers quarterly. As of June 30,
     2001 and 2000, inventory is $232,869 and $227,329, respectively. As of June
     30,  2001 and 2000,  inventory  receivable  from  customers  is $42,300 and
     $143,167, respectively, while inventory payable to customers is $29,744 and
     $48,658, respectively.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

     5.  Property and Equipment
         ----------------------

     Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation  and  amortization
     are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives
     of the related assets or the remaining lease term.

     Certain  long-term  assets of the Company are reviewed at least annually as
     to whether their carrying value has become  impaired,  pursuant to guidance
     established  in SFAS No. 121,  Accounting  for the Impairment of Long-Lived
     Assets and for Long-Lived  Assets to Be Disposed Of.  Management  considers
     assets to be impaired if the carrying  value  exceeds the future  projected
     cash flows from  related  operations  (undiscounted  and  without  interest
     charges). If impairment is deemed to exist, the assets will be written down
     to fair value or projected  discounted cash flows from related  operations.
     Management  also  re-evaluates  the periods of  amortization  to  determine
     whether  subsequent events and  circumstances  warrant revised estimates of
     useful lives.  As of June 30, 2000,  management  expects these assets to be
     fully recoverable.

     Construction in progress was stated at cost and represented  costs incurred
in the construction of the Collegeville Inn's facilities.

     6.  Investments in Contracts
         ------------------------

     Investments  in  contracts  are  capital  costs  incurred by the Company on
     behalf of their  customers.  These costs are amortized over the life of the
     contract.  As of June 30,  2001 and  2000,  investments  in  contracts  are
     $280,000 and $-0-, respectively.

     7.  Deferred Financing Costs
         ------------------------

     Debt  financing  costs  incurred in  connection  with the bonds payable are
     deferred and  amortized,  using the interest  method,  over the term of the
     related debt and are classified as other assets on the balance sheet.

     8.  Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
         ---------------------------------------

     The Company follows the disclosure  provisions of SFAS No. 123,  Accounting
     for  Stock-Based  Compensation,  for  its  stock  options.  This  statement
     contains a fair  value-based  method for valuing  stock-based  compensation
     that entities may use, which measures  compensation  cost at the grant date
     based on the fair value of the award.  Compensation is then recognized over
     the service period, which is usually the vesting period. Alternatively, the
     standard permits entities to continue accounting for employee stock options
     and similar equity  instruments  under  Accounting  Principles  Board (APB)
     Opinion  25,  Accounting  for Stock  Issued  to  Employees.  Entities  that
     continue to account for stock  options using APB Opinion 25 are required to
     make pro forma  disclosures of net income and earnings per share, as if the
     fair value-based method of accounting defined in SFAS 123 had been applied.
     The Company's employee stock option plan is accounted for under APB Opinion
     25.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

     9.  Income Taxes
         ------------

     Income taxes consist of taxes  currently  due plus  deferred  taxes related
     primarily  to  temporary  differences  between  the  basis  of  assets  and
     liabilities for financial and income tax reporting. Deferred tax assets and
     liabilities   represent  the  future  tax  return   consequences  of  those
     differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and
     liabilities are recovered or settled.

     10.  Earnings Per Share
          ------------------

     The Company  follows the  provisions  of SFAS No. 128,  Earnings Per Share,
     which  eliminate  primary and fully diluted  earnings per share and require
     presentation  of basic and diluted  earnings per share in conjunction  with
     the  disclosure  of the  methodology  used in computing  such  earnings per
     share.  Basic  earnings  per share  excludes  dilution  and is  computed by
     dividing income  available to common  shareholders by the weighted  average
     common shares  outstanding  during the period.  Diluted  earnings per share
     takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or
     other  contracts to issue common stock were  exercised and  converted  into
     common stock.

     Options to purchase  89,750,  108,000 and 127,000 shares of common stock at
     $4.00 per share were outstanding during 2001, 2000 and 1999,  respectively.
     They were not  included in the  computation  of diluted  earnings per share
     because the option price is greater than the average market price.

     11.  Advertising Costs
          -----------------

     It is the Company's  policy to expense  advertising  costs in the period in
     which they are incurred.  Advertising  expense for the years ended June 30,
     2001, 2000 and 1999 was $24,048, $46,976 and $127,919, respectively.

NOTE G - RELATED PARTY

     During 1992, the Company sold its building for a purchase price of $610,000
     to a related party (a corporation wholly-owned by the principal stockholder
     of the  Company).  At the time of the sale a lease was entered into for ten
     years, whereby the Company will lease back the building from the purchaser.
     The sale  resulted in a gain of $263,717,  which has been deferred and will
     be amortized over the life of the lease.  During each of the three years in
     the period ended June 30, 2001,  the Company  recognized a gain of $26,364.
     As of June 30, 2001 and 2000,  the balance of the  unamortized  gain on the
     sale was $26,426 and $52,778, respectively.

     The Company leases its corporate  office building from the  above-mentioned
     related party.  During the years ended June 30, 2001,  2000 and 1999,  rent
     expense was $254,859, $256,304 and $228,862, respectively.

     1.  Operating Leases
         ----------------

     The Company  leases real estate  facilities  from a corporation  owned by a
     principal  stockholder  under operating  leases. In addition to the minimum
     annual rentals,  the lease requires additional rentals based upon increases
     in the consumer price index. These leases range from one to five years (see
     note G).

     The Company is also obligated under various  operating leases for operating
     equipment for periods  expiring  through 2003.  During the years ended June
     30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, rent expense was $285,295, $341,781, and $300,300,
     respectively.

     Minimum annual rentals under non-cancelable  operating leases subsequent to
     June 30, 2001, are as follows:

     2.  Litigation
         ----------

     On February 7, 2001,  the Company filed suit against a major client,  which
     represented  25% of the  Company's  revenues  during 2001,  in the Court of
     Common Pleas of Chester County,  Pennsylvania.  In the lawsuit, the Company
     claims that the customer  failed to pay $2.4 million for services  rendered
     by the  Company  and the  customer  should  reimburse  the Company for over
     $400,000 in start up expenses, in addition to other claims.

     In the normal  course of its  business,  the Company is exposed to asserted
     and  unasserted  claims.  In the opinion of  management,  the resolution of
     these  matters  will not have a material  adverse  affect on the  Company's
     consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE J - STOCK OPTIONS AND EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN - Continued

     2.  Employee Stock Purchase Plan
         ----------------------------

     The Company has a stock purchase plan that allows  participating  employees
     to purchase,  through payroll  deductions,  shares of the Company's  common
     stock at 85 percent of the fair market  value at specified  dates.  At June

     of stock purchased under the plan is shown below.

                                                                    2001                    2000                    1999

NOTE K - DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PENSION PLAN

     The Company  sponsors a 401(k) plan for all employees who have attained the
     age of  twenty-one  and  have  completed  one  year  of  service.  Eligible
     employees  may  contribute  up to 15% of their annual  compensation  to the
     plan.  The  Company  can  match  100% up to the first 6% of  employee  plan
     contributions.  Participants  are  vested  20% for  each  year  of  service
     beginning  after year 3 and are fully  vested  after seven  service  years.
     During the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, company  contributions
     to the plan,  which were charged to expense,  amounted to $32,534,  $30,252
     and $10,092, respectively.

NOTE L - CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

     Financial   instruments   which   potentially   subject   the   Company  to
     concentrations  of  credit  risk  consist  principally  of  cash  and  cash
     equivalents and accounts receivable. A substantial portion of the Company's
     revenues are dependent upon the payment by customers who are dependent upon
     third-party  payers,  such as state  governments,  Medicare  and  Medicaid.
     Generally,  the Company does not require  collateral  or other  security to
     support customer receivables.  The Company routinely assesses the financial
     strength of its customers  and, based upon factors  surrounding  the credit
     risk of its customers,  establishes an allowance for uncollectible accounts
     and, as a consequence,  believes that its accounts  receivable  credit risk
     exposure beyond such allowances is limited.

     As of June 30, 2001,  the Company has cash accounts with various  financial
     institutions  having  high  credit  standings  and  periodically  has  cash
     balances subject to credit risk beyond insured  amounts.  As a consequence,
     it believes  that its exposure to credit risk loss is limited.  The Company
     does not  require  collateral  and  other  security  to  support  financial
     instruments subject to credit risk.

NOTE M - MAJOR CUSTOMERS

     The Company had sales to one customer  representing  approximately 25%, 17%
     and 17% of total  revenues  for the years  ending June 30,  2001,  2000 and
     1999, respectively. The loss of such customer could have a material adverse
     effect on the Company's future results of operations.

NOTE N - BUSINESS SEGMENTS

     The Company follows the disclosure  provisions of SFAS No. 131, Disclosures
     about Segments of an Enterprise and Related  Information.  This  management
     approach  focuses  on  internal  financial  information  that  is  used  by
     management to assess performance and to make operating decisions.  SFAS No.
     131 also requires disclosures about products,  services,  geographic areas,
     and major  customers.  The  adoption  of SFAS No.  131 had no effect on the
     Company's results of operations or financial position.

     The financial  information of the Company's  reportable  segments have been
     compiled utilizing the accounting policies described in Note A Organization
     and  Business.  The  Company's  reportable  segments  are (1) food  service
     management  and (2) training and  conference  center.  The Company  reports
     segment performance on an after tax basis. Deferred taxes are not allocated
     to segments.  The management  accounting policies and processes utilized in
     compiling segment  financial  information are highly subjective and, unlike
     financial  accounting,  are not based on authoritative  guidance similar to
     accounting  principles  generally accepted in the United States of America.
     As a result,  reported segment results are not necessarily  comparable with
     similar information reported by other similar companies.

                                                                                      Training and
