Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

      The Company is a closed end, non-diversified investment company that has elected to be treated as a “business development company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”). The Company invests primarily in the equity and equity-linked debt securities of private companies. The Company’s principal investment objective is the realization of long-term capital appreciation in the value of such investments. In addition, whenever feasible in light of market conditions and the cash flow characteristics of its portfolio companies, the Company seeks to provide an element of current income primarily from interest, dividends, and fees paid by its portfolio companies.

      This report contains certain statements of a forward-looking nature relating to future events or the future financial performance of the Company and its investment portfolio companies. Words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “estimate,” “might,” or “continue” or the negative or other variations thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are only predictions and the actual events or results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those relating to investment capital demand, pricing, market acceptance, the effect of economic conditions, litigation and the effect of regulatory proceedings, competitive forces, the results of financing and investing efforts, minimum net asset value appreciation targets, potential portfolio liquidity events, the ability to complete transactions and other risks identified below or in the Company’s filings with the Commission. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. The following analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements, the Notes thereto, and the other financial information included elsewhere in this report.

Results of Operations

      The Company began operations upon the completion of an initial public offering on December 3, 1996. Its principal investment objective is the realization of long-term capital appreciation in the value of its investments. In addition, whenever feasible in light of market conditions and the cash flow characteristics of its portfolio companies, the Company seeks to provide an element of current income primarily from interest, dividends, and fees paid by its portfolio companies. Pending the completion of equity and equity-linked debt security investments that meet the Company’s investment objectives, available funds are invested in short-term securities. Dividend and interest income on investments for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 were $853,881, and $1,168,898, respectively. The significant components of total operating expenses were advisory fees of $723,075 and $775,010 to the Investment Adviser during the six-months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

      During the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, the Company’s equity and equity-linked debt security investments resulted in net realized and unrealized gains on investment transactions of $3,940,720 and $663,010, respectively. The Company has invested in various small capitalization public stocks which are subject to general stock market and business conditions and the ten private investments described below (See “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources”). The realized and unrealized gains have been significantly influenced by these general stock market and business conditions as well as the additional financing transactions of Flight Options International, Inc., as more fully described under “Financial Conditions, Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

      At June 30, 2001, the Company had $10,226,227 in cash and cash equivalents. The Company invested the proceeds of the initial public offering on a short-term basis pending completion of investments in equity and equity-linked debt securities of private companies and post-venture small capitalization public companies. Management believes that cash and cash equivalents together with proceeds from investments will provide the Company with the liquidity necessary to pay operating expenses of the Company and make follow-on investments. However, because of the quality and quantity of the Company’s potential investment opportunities and the expectation that the Company could be fully invested in the next twelve months, management is

      Brantley Venture Partners II, L.P., Brantley Venture Partners III, L.P. and Brantley Partners IV, L.P. (collectively, the “Partnerships”) hold, in the aggregate, approximately $200 million of venture capital private equity investments. The Partnerships are related to the Investment Adviser in a manner that requires the receipt, from the Commission, of an exemption from certain provisions of the Act in order to permit, under certain circumstances, the Company, the Investment Adviser and the Partnerships to invest in the same portfolio companies. As a result, the Company and the Partnerships filed an application on March 6, 1997 with the Commission seeking an exemptive order permitting the Company, under certain circumstances, to invest in securities of issuers in which one of the Partnerships also intends to invest. The staff of the Commission granted the exemptive order on November 18, 1997.

      Consistent with the Company’s current long-term objectives, the Board of Directors has recently asked the Company’s Investment Adviser, to consider ways to maximize shareholder value in the event that the net asset value of the Company has not appreciated by a minimum of 15% per annum for the seven-year period ending December 31, 2003. Such actions could include, but are not limited to, a possible recommendation to consider the sale of some or all of the Company’s investments. Management has been pleased with the performance of the Company’s portfolio companies since inception and believes that liquidity opportunities that generally start presenting themselves several years into a portfolio of this nature may create gains for the Company over the next few years. The portfolio is just beginning to enter a period of possible liquidity events, and management feels confident that the portfolio will continue to perform adequately. However, in light of the market price of the Company’s shares relative to their net asset value, management has reiterated the Company’s planned goals and objectives and has reassured shareholders that management intends to take action if those goals and objectives are not met. Nevertheless, management expects to meet the Company’s net asset value appreciation target.

      At June 30, 2001, the cost of equity and equity-linked debt security investments made by the Company to date was $30.9 million and their aggregate market value was $48.9 million, for an aggregate fair market value appreciation of 58%. Management believes the companies invested in have significant potential for long-term growth in sales and earnings. Since the completion of the Company’s initial public offering, management has focused its investment activities on securing new investments for the Company’s portfolio. However, given the current nature of the portfolio and the fact that the portfolio as a whole is maturing, management is entering into a phase of the business plan which emphasizes positioning the more mature portfolio companies for appropriate liquidity events. As a result, the Company is continuously monitoring portfolio company results and evaluating opportunities to maximize the valuation of its investments. In that regard, the Company periodically evaluates potential acquisitions, financing transactions, initial public offerings, strategic alliances, and sale opportunities involving its portfolio companies. These transactions and activities are generally not disclosed to the Company’s stockholders and the investing public until such time as the transactions are publicly announced or completed, as the case may be. Any such transaction could have an impact on the valuation of the Company’s investments, however, valuations would generally not be adjusted until the transaction is publicly announced or completed.

      The individually significant equity and equity-linked debt security holdings of the Company at June 30, 2001 were comprised of the following investments:

  Disposable Products Company, LLC

      On August 10, 1998, the Company entered into an investment led by Banc One Capital to provide $1.0 million of a $3.0 million subordinated debt facility with warrants for Disposable Products Company, LLC (“DPC”). DPC is an acquisition strategy company in the business of manufacturing and converting paper and non-woven materials into wiping products for sale to commercial, institutional, industrial and government markets. In addition, DPC is a converter and reseller of other safety and industrial/janitorial products. Proceeds of the transaction were used to complete the first acquisition. The terms of the debt facility call for a 12% interest rate per annum with a final maturity in 2003. The Company also received a detachable capital stock purchase warrant exercisable into 5% of the fully-diluted capital stock of DPC at the time of exercise at a nominal exercise price. On January 26, 2001 the Company funded a $166,667, 12% promissory note of DPC.

  Fitness Quest, Inc.

      On December 16, 1997, the Company funded a $1.35 million commitment to invest with Brantley Venture Partners III, L.P. in a $3.85 million preferred stock issue for Fitness Quest, Inc. (“Fitness Quest”). As a result, the Company purchased approximately 788,961 shares of Fitness Quest Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock at $1.71 per share. Fitness Quest is a direct marketing and distribution company. A portion of the proceeds were used by Fitness Quest for a management buy-out of the company from its previous owner, The Time Warner Music Group (a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of Time Warner, Inc.) and the remainder was used for acquisitions. Fitness Quest has been in the fitness promotional products business since 1994 and, at the time of the purchase, had revenues at a $100 million annual sales rate level.

      During 1997, Fitness Quest grew to $120 million in sales and improved its operating margins and profits. After a complete evaluation, the Company’s Board of Directors re-valued its Fitness Quest investment to $5,440,000, resulting in a 1997 unrealized gain of $4,090,000. This evaluation was based on price to earnings ratios, cash flow multiples and other appropriate financial measurements of similar private companies. In 1998, the operating results of Fitness Quest were adversely impacted by the cyclical nature of its business and one-time expenses resulting from several acquisition transactions. Consequently, 1998 sales were approximately $90 million, resulting in lower than expected profit margins. Since 1998, the Company has shown significant improvement in its core operating results with 2000 annual sales of approximately $145 million.

      In addition to the above Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company has funded $1,751,300 to invest with Brantley Venture Partners III, L.P. in a $3.5 million 10% senior subordinated debt investment in Fitness Quest. In addition, the Company received a warrant to purchase 181,172 shares of Fitness Quest common stock for $.01 per share. The proceeds of the investment were used to fund Fitness Quest’s working capital needs. During the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company exchanged the senior subordinated debt investment and related unpaid interest for 679,641 shares of Fitness Quest common stock.

  Flight Options International, Inc. (Formerly Corporate Wings, Inc.)

      On December 23, 1997, the Company completed a $2.1 million investment with Brantley Venture Partners III, L.P. to purchase a $6.0 million preferred stock issue for Flight Options International, Inc. (“Flight Options”). The Company’s investment consists of approximately 2,576,000 shares of Flight Options Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock at $0.8152 per share. Flight Options provides complete private air travel service through the sale of fractional interests in pre-owned jet aircraft. The proceeds of the transaction were used by Flight Options to continue to execute an acquisition strategy. Flight Options has been in business since 1978 and had sales of approximately $40 million at the time of the Company’s investment.

      On December 29, 1998, the Company announced the completion of a second private equity investment in Flight Options. As a result, the Company purchased $962,500 of a $5.5 million preferred stock transaction led by The Provident Bank. The Company’s purchase represents approximately 260,135 shares of a Class A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock at $3.70 per share. Proceeds were used to fund the expansion of the Flight Options program and to continue to execute their acquisition strategy. During 1998, Flight Options completed the acquisition of Miller Aviation. As a result of the price of this subsequent financing and the operating performance of Flight Options during 1998, the market value of the Company’s original investment was increased to $9,531,760, resulting in an unrealized gain of $7,431,760. This valuation was based on the $3.70 per share price negotiated by The Provident Bank and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

      On August 31, 1999, the Company announced the completion of a third private equity investment in Flight Options. As a result, Flight Options sold $20 million of Series B 8% Preferred Stock to a third party private equity group at $4.365 per share. Consistent with the Company’s investment procedures, this transaction resulted in a valuation increase on the Flight Options investment of $1,886,030 or $0.50 per share.

      On July 11, 2000, the Company guaranteed a portion of Flight Options’ third-party borrowings. As a result, the Company was issued a warrant to purchase 36,000 shares of common stock of Flight Options at a price of $0.01 per share. Management believes, based on current facts and circumstances and Flight Options’ financial position, that the likelihood that the Company will be required to make a payment pursuant to such guarantee is remote.

      On December 12, 2000 the Company purchased $2.5 million, or 469,925 shares, of Class C 8% Preferred Stock at $5.32 per share. Proceeds of the transaction were used to fund the continued expansion of the fractional ownership program.

      On June 30, 2001, Flight Options received offers from institutional investors to purchase up to $25 million of convertible preferred stock or subordinated debt securities in Flight Options which supports the valuation used to complete the December 12, 2000 Class C 8% Preferred Stock transaction described in the preceding paragraph. As a result, and consistent with the Company’s investment valuation procedures, the Board of Directors approved a valuation increase on the Flight Options investment which resulted in the Company reporting an unrealized gain of $2,742,889 or $0.72 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2001.

      At June 30, 2001, the financial statement value of the investment in Flight Options was $17,779,400, representing over a 220% increase from its original cost. The commentary above reflects a four-for-one stock split executed in 2000. All share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect such stock split.

  Health Care Solutions, Inc.

      On September 30, 1997, the Company funded a $1.5 million convertible junior subordinated promissory note facility for Health Care Solutions, Inc. (“Health Care Solutions”). Health Care Solutions is an acquisition strategy company in the home healthcare services market with a strong presence in the Midwest and Great Lakes region. The terms of the notes called for an 18% interest rate per annum during the first year and 12% per annum thereafter, with final maturity two years from the closing. After the first year, the notes were convertible into common stock at a price of $3.50 per share. In connection with its commitment to provide this facility, the Company received warrants to purchase up to $450,000 of common stock valued at an exercise price of 10% of an initial public offering (“IPO”) price completed during the term of the notes, or at $3.50 per share should the warrants be exercised other than in connection with an IPO. The warrants are currently exercisable. The proceeds of the notes were used by Health Care Solutions to help finance acquisitions.

      Health Care Solutions has completed a re-capitalization plan, including a two-for-one reverse stock split. As a result, the Company has agreed to exchange its convertible junior subordinated promissory note and accrued interest thereon for 246,994 shares of Series C 8% Convertible Preferred Stock at an exchange rate of $7.50 per share. The warrants to purchase up to $450,000 of common stock at an exercise price of 10% of an IPO price or at $3.50 per share will remain outstanding and will be adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

      In addition to the above Series C 8% Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company has funded a $500,000 and a $299,000 12% Convertible Subordinated Note. As part of this transaction, the Company received a warrant to purchase up to $50,000 of Health Care Solutions Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the lower of a price as determined by an IPO or $7.50 per share. On March 7, 2001, the Company agreed to exchange the $500,000 Convertible Subordinated Note for 71,880 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock.

  The Holland Group, Inc.

As a result of this transaction, the Company purchased 282,530 shares of Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock.

      On August 10, 1999, the Company announced the completion of a $1.5 million commitment to invest with Brantley Partners IV, L.P. in a $12.0 million preferred stock issue for National Rehab Partners, Inc. (“NRP”). NRP is a Brentwood, Tennessee rehabilitation management service company providing rehabilitation services through acute care hospitals and hospital systems throughout the United States. NRP is the only national rehabilitation company focused exclusively on helping hospitals develop their outpatient rehabilitation services. The first $8.0 million of the commitment was funded to complete the acquisition of a group of rehabilitation management service providers. The remaining commitments are being funded upon the successful closing of additional acquisitions. As a result of this commitment, the Company purchased 2.2 million shares of Class A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock. On January 10, 2001, the Company funded a $26,126, 10% promissory note of

Impact of Inflation

      The Company does not believe that its business is materially affected by inflation, other than the impact which inflation may have on the securities markets, the valuations of business enterprises and the relationship of such valuations to underlying earnings, all of which will influence the value of the Company’s investments.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

      A business development company is required to describe the risk factors involved in an investment in the securities of a business development company due to the nature of the company’s investment portfolio and capital structure. Accordingly, the Company states that its objective is to achieve capital appreciation through investments in businesses believed to have favorable growth potential. Such businesses are often small, undercapitalized companies that can lack management depth and have not yet attained consistent levels of profitability. The Company’s private equity and equity-linked debt security investments often include securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale that adversely affect the liquidity and marketability of such securities.

      The Company considers the management of equity price risk essential to conducting its business and maintaining its profitability. The Company manages this risk by maintaining a diverse portfolio of equity and equity-linked debt securities. A portion of the Company’s investment portfolio consists of equity and equity-linked debt securities in private companies. The Company anticipates no impact on these investments from modest changes in public market equity prices. However, should significant changes in market prices occur, there could be a long-term effect on valuations of private companies, which could affect the carrying value and the amount and timing of gains realized on these investments. A portion of the Company’s investment portfolio also consists of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock in publicly traded companies. These investments are directly exposed to equity price risk, in that a hypothetical ten percent change in these equity prices would result in a similar percentage change in the fair market value of these investments.

      The portion of the Company’s investment portfolio consisting of equity and equity-linked debt securities in private companies is also subject to valuation risk. Investments are stated at “fair value” as defined in the Act and in the applicable regulations of the Commission. All assets are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by, or under the direction of, the Board of Directors. Because there is typically no public market for the equity and equity-linked debt securities in which the Company invests, the valuation of the equity interests in the Company’s portfolio is subject to the estimates of the Company’s Board of Directors in accordance with the Company’s Investment Valuation Guidelines. In the absence of a readily ascertainable market value, the estimated value of the Company’s portfolio of equity and equity-linked debt securities may differ significantly from the values that would be placed on the portfolio if a ready market for the investments existed. Any changes in valuation are recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as “Net unrealized gain (loss) on investments.”

      Because of the speculative nature of the Company’s investments and the lack of any market for the securities initially purchased by the Company, there is a significantly greater risk of loss than is the case with traditional investment securities. The high-risk, long-term nature of the Company’s private equity investment activities may prevent stockholders of the Company from achieving price appreciation and dividend distributions.
