FINANCING ACTIVITIES

The Company has an unused revolving credit line of $1,000,000 which bears
interest at the rate of prime plus 0.5% per annum, secured by the Company's
accounts receivable and inventory. The Company is in compliance with all

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR QUARTER ENDED JULY 31, 1998

REVENUES

Sales were $2,209,044 in 1998, compared to $2,251,959 in 1997, representing a
decrease of $42,915 or 2%, due primarily to a reduction of 14.5% in the sale of
airbags. This was the result of two factors; the continuing slow ramp-up in the
new model non-azide airbag for the driver and passenger side impact filters, as
well as the effect toward the latter part of the quarter of the General Motors
strike.


GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 32% in July 1998, compared to 26% in
July 1997, an increase of 6% representing higher margins on precision filters on
the PMA Program as well as increased manufacturing efficiencies.


OPERATING INCOME

Operating income was $98,745 in July 1998 compared to $139,086 in July 1997, a
decrease of $40,341. This was due to several factors; lower margins on airbag
filters, the cost of new product development, increased marketing cost due to
the creation of an international division, and increased legal fees as the pace
of the Company's final litigation increases.


INTEREST CHARGES

Interest on the bank loan was $7,179 as of July 31, 1998


INCOME TAXES

A tax benefit of $102,000 was recognized as a result of income tax loss
carryforwards

PART LL - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1. PENDING      LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

1.   Memtec America Corporation obtained a confession of judgment from the
     Circuit Court of Baltimore County, Maryland, on December 19, 1995 against
     the Company for approximately $220,000 based upon the execution in exchange
     for goods and services delivered by the Plaintiff. The Company disputes
     that any amounts are due under the Note as a result of Company's right of
     set-off. The judgment was obtained without due notice to the Company. The
     Receiver retained counsel in Baltimore, Maryland for the purpose of setting
     aside the confession of judgment and to assert a number of counter-claims
     against Memtec America Corporation. The confession of judgment was vacated
     by order of the Circuit Court of Baltimore on June 24, 1996. The Company
     filed an amended counter-claim and third party complaint on August 12, 1996
     against Memtec America Corporation and four employees of the Company now
     employed by Memtec America Corporation. The counter-claim against the four
     former employees was dismissed for jurisdictional purposes. The Company now
     is in the process of securing positive depositions from key witnesses to
     support the amended counter-claim, and management believes the Company will
     recover a reasonable award and legal fees. Although the Company cannot
     determine the potential liability which may result from the foregoing, it
     believes it will prevail in its defenses and does not expect that such
     litigation will have a material adverse effect on its financial position or
     results of operation.

At January 31, 1998, an accrual in the amount of approximately $256,000 had been
recorded for judgments against the Company for lawsuits that have concluded.

The Company is not party, nor are its properties subject to, any material
pending proceedings other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the
Company's business and the matters described above.
