10 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Interest income in the six months ended September 30, 1996 decreased from the year-ago period primarily because of the repayment of debentures by portfolio companies offset somewhat by an increase in invested idle funds.
