Note 3.    Deferred Income Taxes

        At September 30, 1996 the Company had a deferred tax asset in the amount
of  $3,656,000 ($906,000 classified as short term with the balance of $2,750,000
as long term) based on management's assessment that it is more likely than not
that it will have sufficient taxable income in future periods to realize the
corresponding tax benefit resulting from the recognition of the deferred tax
asset. Management plans to reassess the deferred tax asset on a quarterly basis
and make appropriate adjustments as necessary.

Note 4.    Pro Forma Net Income Per Common Share

        Pro forma net income per share is computed using net income applicable
to common stockholders increased by the excess liquidation preference
attributable to the period and the weighted average number of common (6,840,000
and 4,625,000 as of September 30, 1996 and 1995) and common equivalent shares
outstanding.  Common equivalent shares include convertible preferred stock which
was converted into common stock at the completion of the Company's initial
public offering ("IPO") (3,789,000 as of September 30, 1995) and those shares
issuable upon the assumed exercise of dilutive


                                     Page 6
<PAGE>   7
stock options as adjusted for the effects of the application of Securities and
Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 83. (156,000 and
458,000 as of September 30, 1996 and 1995.  Pursuant to SAB No. 83, options
granted within one year of the IPO which have an exercise price less than the
IPO price are treated as outstanding for all periods presented.  Earnings per
share is computed using the treasury stock method, under which the number of
shares outstanding reflects an assumed use of the proceeds from the assumed
exercise of such options to repurchase shares of the Company's common stock at
the IPO price.

Note 5.    Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings Per Share

        As of June 30, 1996 the Company has utilized all of its net operating
loss carryforwards.  Therefore, management anticipates its future effective tax
rate will be approximately 40%.  The following table summarizes the adjusted pro
forma effect to net income per common share assuming the Company had an
effective tax rate of 40% for the quarter ending September 30, 1995. The quarter
ended September 30, 1996 reflects additional income tax expense of $378,000
related to the sale of the Tama property in Japan.

Item 2.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER  30, 1996 TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

         Total net sales.  Total net sales decreased 20.8% from $17,736,000 in
the three months ended September 30, 1995 to $14,052,000 in the three months
ended September 30, 1996.  Printer sales revenue decreased by 50.4% from
$4,516,000 in the three months ended September 30, 1995 to $2,239,000 in the
three months ended September 30, 1996.  The decrease in printer revenue is
attributable to the introduction by Hewlett-Packard of a competing 40 page per
minute printer as well as an industry wide slow down in computer systems sales.
Consumable supplies and spare parts sales decreased by 10.6% from $13,220,000
in the three months ended September 30, 1995 to $11,813,000 in the three months
ended September 30, 1996.  This decrease is due to customers return to normal
inventory levels after the large build-up in the last six months of fiscal
1996.  The Company anticipates that this trend will continue.

         Gross profit.  Gross profit increased by 5.7% from $6,027,000 in the
three months ended September 30, 1995 to $6,373,000 in the three months ended
September 30, 1996.  The gross margin increased from 34.0% to 45.4% in the same
period.  The increase in dollars and as a percentage of sales is primarily due
to the higher sales mix of consumable supplies which generate higher margin,
the favorable dollar to yen exchange rate and continued cost improvements in
the manufacturing process.

         Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased by 6.5% from $2,722,000 in the three months
ended September 30, 1995 to $2,544,000 in the three months ended September 30,
1996.  This decrease consists mainly of lower bonus expense due to the decrease
in pre-tax income.

         Research and Development Expense.  Research and development expenses
increased by 96.8% from $1,174,000 in the three months ended September 30, 1995
to $2,310,000 in the three months ended September 30, 1996.  This increase is
due to expenses associated with the continued development of the KW60 product
line.





                                     Page 8
<PAGE>   9

         Interest Expense and Other Income (Expense).  Interest expense and
other income (expense) increased from $21,000 of expense in the three months
ended September 30, 1995 to $544,000 of expense in the three months ended
September 30, 1996.  Other expense at September 30, 1996 includes a book loss
of $872,000 related to the anticipated sale in November 1996 of the Tama
property in Japan.

         Net interest expense at September 30, 1995 was $8,000, while at
September 30, 1996 net interest income of $290,000 was realized as a result of
greater cash available for investment.

         Income Tax (Expense) Benefit.  Income tax expense for the three months
ended  September 30, 1995 was $663,000, or an effective tax rate of 31.4%, as a
result of the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards which offset
taxable income in fiscal year 1996.  Income tax expense for the three months
ended September 30, 1996 was $768,000 resulting in a year-to-date effective tax
rate of 78.8%.  Income tax expense includes the standard provision of a 40% tax
rate and a one-time tax expense of $378,000 related to the sale of the Tama
property in Japan.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Changes in cash during the three months ended September 30, 1996
resulted in a net increase of $177,000 as compared to a net increase during the
three months ended September 30, 1995 of $752,000.  Net cash provided by
operations for the three months ended September 30, 1996 decreased by
$1,549,000 from the three months ended September 30, 1995.  The primary reason
for this decrease was a reduction in net income of $1,240,000.

         In November 1996 the Company entered into an agreement to sell the
Tama property in Japan.  The proceeds from the sale, net of commission, are
estimated to be Y.552,900,000, or $4,964,533 at a yen-dollar exchange rate of
111.37, and will be used to pay off the Company's long term debt.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings

         On May 23, 1996 the Company was served a complaint filed by Printronix
Corporation in the Federal District Court for the Central District of
California alleging violations of the Robinson-Patman Act and breach of
contract and seeking an aggregate of $10 million in relief.  The suit pertains
to Printronix desire to retain OEM pricing on consumable supplies and spare
parts.

         On May 6, 1996, the Company filed an action against Rosetta
Technologies Corporation seeking collection of unpaid invoices.  Rosetta
counterclaimed and alleged actions related to breach of contract and antitrust.

         The Company intends to vigorously defend against these claims.  In
view of the stage of litigation, management and counsel of the Company are
unable to determine the outcome of the legal actions or estimate the amount of
the loss, if any.
