NOTE 5 - CESSATION OF RECEIVERSHIP
On August 13, 1996, all 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 entered a new banking relationship. The Company
obtained a $750,000 revolving credit line. This credit line bears interest at
the rate of prime plus 1.5%, per annum, and is secured, primarily, by the
Company's accounts receivable and inventories. The Company also obtained a
$300,000, non-revolving, equipment acquisition credit line, which bears interest
at the rate of prime plus 1.75%, per annum, and is secured by all of the
Company's assets. Both of these loans are 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.
NOTE 6 - NONRECURRING EXPENSES
Nonrecurring expenses are the monthly administrative fees charged by the
Receiver during the receivership period. The Receivership Estate began on May
1, 1995 and ended on August 22, 1996.
NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
Income tax benefits recognized represents the benefit of income tax loss
carryforwards.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At April 30, 1997, the Company had cash available of $180,008, compared to
$164,415 on January 31, 1997, was free of bank debt and it had a current ratio
of 5.00 to 1 at April 30, 1997, compared to 5.16 to 1 on January 31, 1997.
OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Operations provided $97,533 of cash flow in three months ended April 30, 1997
versus $334,357 in the three months ended April 30, 1996. The lower cash flow
from operations results from the increase in accounts receivable reflecting
higher sales in the current quarter than the previous year's quarter.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES
The Company invested $93,905 in new capital equipment in the current quarter
predominantly for equipment for a new type of airbag filter.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES
The Company has unused revolving credit line of $750,000 which bears interest at
the rate of prime plus 1.5% per annum, secured by the Company's accounts
receivable and inventory. The Company also has a non-revolving equipment
acquisition loan of $300,000 which bears interest at prime rate plus 1.75% per
annum. The Company is in compliance with all covenants under its loan agreement
with the Bank.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR QUARTER ENDED APRIL 30, 1997
REVENUES
Sales were $2,349,632 in 1997, compared to $2,166,708 in 1996, representing an
increase of $182,924 or 8.7%, due primarily to increased shipments of high
performance filters.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 26% in April 1997, compared to 33% in
April 1996, representing a decrease of 7% due to increased cost of materials and
labor in producing airbag filters and charges of increased R & D on a new type
of airbag filters.
OPERATING INCOME
Operating income was $199,847 in April 1997 compared to $320,787 in April 1996,
a decrease of $120,727 due to the lower margins on airbag filters and the impact
of the cost of new product development.
INTEREST CHARGES
Interest on bank loans were $36,102 in 1996 and completely eliminated in 1997.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
1. Reliable Metallurgical Processes Inc. commenced an action against Puroflow
Corporation and Michigan Dynamics Inc. in September, 1995 in Los Angeles
County Superior Court for breach of contract, open account, and
anticipatory breach. This action is being vigorously opposed and the
Registrant has filed a cross-complaint alleging for failure to properly
perform the alleged Contract, ultra vires acts in consummation of original
Agreement, and breach of fiduciary obligation by a former Director and
Officer of Registrant who were also Officers and Directors of the
Plaintiff.
2. Jerome Pearlman d.b.a. J&F Enterprises, a former Director of the
Registrant, commenced an action in the Los Angeles County Supreme Court,
for breach of an alleged promissory note. The Registrant will vigorously
defend by filing a cross-complaint against Plaintiff for breach of
fiduciary duty and constructive trust, seeking a return of all funds paid
to Plaintiff plus interest.
3. J&F Management, Inc., controlled by Jerome Pearlman, a former Director
of the Registrant, commenced an action in Municipal Court of Santa
Monica Judicial District against the Registrant, and the Court
appointed Receiver for possession and conversion of personal property.
Defendants have vigorously defended the action by filing a motion to
disqualify Plaintiff's Counsel, a demurrer to the complaint, and a
cross-complaint seeking recision of the contract and restitution to
Defendant of all funds paid to the Plaintiff pursuant to contract for a
breach of Pearlman's fiduciary duties to the Registrant.
4. The confession of judgment obtained by Memtec America Corporation
against the Registrant on December 19, 1995, previously reported on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996, was vacated by
order of the Circuit Court for Baltimore County on June 24, 1996. The
Registrant filed an amended counter-claim and third party complaint on
August 12, 1996 against Memtec and four former employees of the
Registrant now employed by Memtec. The counter-claim contains many
allegations against Memtec and the four former employees and seeks
substantial compensatory and punitive damages against Memtec and
against Joseph B. Jasso and Michael V. Perry, former Puroflow President
& CEO and Plant Manager, respectively.
The Company is not a party to any other material pending suits of legal actions,
and is not aware of any material claims that are threatened.
