    performance filters.  The Company is located in Van Nuys, California, and
    does business with customers throughout the world, most of which are 
    located in the United States.

    The information presented for the three months, and six months, ended July
    31, 1996 and 1995 has not been audited by independent accountants, but
    includes all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which
    are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the
    results for such periods.

    The loss from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended
    July 31, 1995, reflect the results from operations of the Company's water
    purification products subsidiary which was sold on November 9, 1994, and
    the Company's valve products subsidiary which was sold on June 15, 1995.

    The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
    the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
    Company's January 31, 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

    The results of operations for the three months ended July 31, 1996 are not
    necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended
    January 31, 1997.

NOTE 3 - STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY

    On March 26, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with an 
    investment banker to raise equity through a private placement offering.  
    On July 24, 1996, such offering was completed.  The  Company sold 
    2,530,000 shares of common stock and received $1,772,900 of net proceeds, 
    including $1,300 of interest.  Additionally, $50,000 is being held in 
    escrow, pending registration of the common shares sold.  The purchase 
    price of the common stock was $.80 per share.  From the gross proceeds, 
    the underwriter received $202,400 as a fee.  The underwriter also 
    received a 24 month option to purchase 177,100 common shares, at a price 
    of $.80 per share. Proceeds received by the Company have and will be used 
    to retire bank debt and other pre-Receiver debt.  The Company is 
    obligated to register the securities within six months of the closing 
    date of the offering.

NOTE 4 - NET INCOME PER SHARE

    The computation of net income (loss) per common share is based on the
    weighted average number of shares outstanding, including the effect of
    common stock equivalents (common stock options) when dilutive.

NOTE 5 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

    On August 13, 1996, all remaining bank debt owed by the Company was repaid. 
    On August 22, 1996, the Receivership Estate was terminated by order of the
    Superior Court of the State of California and control of the Company was
    returned to the Board of Directors and Management.

    Additionally, the Company quit its former bank and entered a new banking
    relationship.  The Company has obtained a new $750,000 revolving credit
    line.  This credit line will bear interest at the rate of prime plus 1.5% 
    and be secured, primarily, by the Company's accounts receivable and
    inventories.  The Company also obtained a $300,000, non-revolving,
    equipment acquisition credit line, which will bear interest at the rate of
    prime plus 1.75% and be secured by all of the Company's assets.  Both of
    these loans will be cross-collateralized. The terms of these loan
    agreements contain certain restrictive covenants, including maintenance of
    minimum working capital, net worth, and ratios of current assets to current
    liabilities and debt to net worth.

                                       ----------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>
Net sales of Government and Aerospace Filtration Products decreased by 9%
compared to the quarter ended July 31, 1995.  This revenue decrease was due to
delays in parts qualification within the Company's PMA program.  For the six
months ended July 31, 1996, such revenue increased 10.4% over the prior year six
month period.  This is due to strong first quarter sales increases from new PMA
program parts that have been qualified.

Net sales of the airbag product line decreased by 42.2% compared to the quarter
ended July 31, 1995. Current quarter revenues of the airbag product line were
affected by automotive product line changeovers, reduction of inventories by
downline automotive suppliers, and softening of demand.  For the six months
ended July 31, 1996, such revenue decreased 24.9% compared to the prior year six
month

                                          6


<PAGE>

period.  The dollar amount of this decrease is virtually entirely due to the
current three month period sales decline.

COST OF SALES/GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 32.9% and 33.1% for the three
months and six months ended July 31, 1996, as compared to 34.1% and 30.2% for
the three  months and six months ended July 31, 1995. Gross profit percentage
for the current quarter as compared to the prior quarter has decreased primarily
due to product mix changes.  The increased gross profit margin for the six month
period is due to consolidation of manufacturing facilities during the third
quarter of the prior year.  This allowed management to reduce costs of
manufacturing overhead and personnel, while increasing productive capacity.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $443,024 and $461,545 for the
three months ended July 31, 1996 and 1995, or 22.1% and 17.3% of revenue,
respectively.  For the six months ended July 31, 1996, and 1995, such expenses
were $914,947 and $943,322, or 21.9% and 21.0% of revenue, respectively. 
Increases were primarily attributable to legal settlements and professional
fees.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense decreased by $44,356 and $94,604 for the three months and six
months ended July 31, 1996, as compared to 1995, due to reduction in interest
bearing debt.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

No provision for income taxes is necessary due to the Company's federal net
operating loss carryforwards in excess of $3,342,000 for federal income tax
purposes, and $2,709,000 for California state income tax purposes, at January
31, 1996.  Such operating loss carryforwards expire from 2008 to 2011.

LOSS FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

The loss from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended July
31, 1995, reflect the results from operations of the Company's water
purification products subsidiary which was sold on November 9, 1994, and the
Company's valve products subsidiary which was sold on June 15, 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's working capital was $2,347,353 and $(726,292) as of July 31, 1996
and 1995, respectively.  This provides for current ratios of approximately 2.64
and .82 at July 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

The Company's debt at July 31, 1996 was $884,735 consisting of notes payable to
the Company's former bank totaling $459,197 and notes payable to vendors of
$425,538.

On March 26, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with an investment
banker to raise equity through a private placement offering.  On July 24, 1996,
the offering was completed.  The Company

sold 2,530,000 shares of common stock and received $1,772,900 of net 
proceeds, including $1,300 of interest. Additionally, $50,000 is being held 
in escrow, pending registration of the common shares sold.  The purchase 
price of the common stock was $.80 per share. From the gross proceeds, the 
underwriter received $202,400 as a fee.  The underwriter also received a 24 
month option to purchase 7% of the amount of shares sold, at an exercisable 
price of $.80 per share.  Proceeds received by the Company will be used to 
retire bank debt and other pre-Receiver debt.  The Company is obligated to 
register the securities within six months of the closing date of the offering.

On August 13, 1996, all remaining bank debt owed by the Company was repaid.  On
August 22, 1996, the Receivership Estate was terminated by order of the Superior
Court of the State of California and control of the Company was returned to the
Board of Directors and Management.

Additionally, the Company quit its former bank and entered a new banking
