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

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

         For the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 1997 (the "1997 Period"), the
Company generated revenues from the sale of its proprietary adult incontinence
products of $818,403 as compared to $428,468 for the fiscal quarter ended June
30, 1996 (the "1996 Period"). The 91% increase in revenues was a result of the
increase in the number of retail drug store chains which sell the Company's
Rejoice incontinence products.

         Cost of good sold was $385,471 and $450,497 for the 1997 Period and the
1996 Period, respectively. The decrease in cost of goods sold was attributable
to significant reduction in costs associated with pant production, including
less Canadian production staff over the comparable period. The gross profit for
the 1997 Period was $432,932 as compared to ($22,029) for the 1996 Period. The
gross profit margin improved to 53% in the 1997 Period. The improvement in gross
profit margin represented the first introduction of retail pant product produced
at a lower unit priced pant subcontractor in Mexico and the significant
reduction in Canadian-based staff and facility costs. In addition, the Company
introduced retail packaged liners produced at a lower priced liner converter in
the United States.

         Total operating expenses increased 47% from $580,512 in the 1996 Period
to $852,695 in the 1997 Period. The increase was primarily attributable to
increased advertising and sales expenses associated with supporting an increased
number of drug stores which sell the Company's products, as well as employee
travel and new salary expenses associated with the Company's commencement of
sales training and marketing activities. Total marketing and advertising
expenses increased 67% from $328,808 in the 1996 Period to $548,950 in the 1997
Period. General and administrative expenses increased 24% from $233,119 to
$289,467 in the 1997 Period. The increase represented increased operating costs
associated with the growth in the Company's headquarters location.

         The Company also generated $22,499 in interest income during the 1997
Period as compared to $3,336 in interest income generated during the 1996
Period. Interest income was offset by interest expense of $152,155 in the 1997
Period and $44,375 in the 1996 Period. The increase in interest expense related
to the increase in short-term and long-term borrowings in the 1997 Period from
the 1996 Period.

         The net loss for the 1997 Period was $623,510 as compared to $643,580
for the 1996 Period, a 3% improvement. The net loss per share was $.15 in the
1997 Period as compared to $.17 per share in the 1996 Period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

         In May 1997, Bradstone Equity Partners Inc. (f/k/a H.J. Forest Products
Ltd.), a Canadian public company which trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange,
guaranteed a Cdn $1.75 million credit facility for the Company from the Toronto
Dominion Bank. The guarantor received warrants to purchase 126,667 shares of the
Company's common stock. The warrants are exercisable at $1.86 per share through
May 8, 1998 and at $2.16 per share through May 9, 1999. The warrants were
recorded on issuance at their estimated fair market value of $163,592 with a
corresponding reduction in the recorded value of the line of credit. The debt
discount will be amortized to interest expense over one year, the term of the
line of credit.


                                       7
<PAGE>


         In July 1997, the credit facility was increased to approximately $2.5
million. In addition, in May 1997, the Company borrowed $1.25 million under a
note payable to Bradstone Equity Partners Inc. These credit facilities were used
to repay outstanding shorter term obligations.

         Subsequent to the close of the 1997 Period, the Company retired a $2.5
million bank loan which was secured by a certificate of deposit. The
certificate of deposit was used as the source of funds for repayment.

         As of June 30, 1997, the Company's principal sources of liquidity
included cash (including amounts restricted as security for loans) of
$2,670,471, net accounts receivable of $951,875 and inventories of 3,110,444.
The Company's operating activities used cash of $1,614,387 for the three month
period ended June 30, 1997. Increases in accounts payable of $193,230 and
increases in accounts receivable of $326,790 reflect the increased operations of
the Company. Increased inventories primarily reflect the Company's growing sales
volume with larger chain stores which require greater inventory availability and
the longer lead times associated with liner production.

         In June 1997, the Company completed a one-for-six reverse stock split
of its issued and outstanding common stock.

         The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies related to
lawsuits and other matters arising in the normal course of business. Management
believes the ultimate liability, if any, arising from such claims or
contingencies is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations or financial condition.
