</TABLE>
 
    Net Sales for the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 1997 increased 9.39% to
$33.8 million from $30.9 million for the comparable period of 1996. The increase
is primarily due to a rise in sales to existing customers that either increased
volume or started new products. For the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 1997, the
Company's sales mix changed from that of the comparable period of 1996, as
assembly sales increased.
 
    Gross Profit increased 0.5% to $5.3 million for the thirteen weeks ended
June 29, 1997, compared to $5.2 million for the same period of the prior year.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales ("Gross Margin") decreased to 15.6%
for the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 1997, compared to 17.0% for the thirteen
weeks ended June 30, 1996. The Gross Margin decrease was due primarily to wage
inflation without peso devaluation, in addition to a change in the business
structure of some assembly contracts.
 
    Selling, General and Administrative Expenses increased 16.1% to $2.3 million
and 6.9% as a percentage of net sales, for the thirteen weeks ended June 29,
1997, as compared to $2.0 million, or 6.5% of net sales, for the thirteen weeks
ended the same period in 1996. This increase resulted in part from an increase
in costs associated with personnel in several departments.
 
    Operating Income decreased by 9.3% to $2.9 million, or 8.7% of net sales,
for the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 1997, from $3.2 million, or 10.4% of net
sales, for the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 1996. The decrease in operating
income as a percentage of sales was mainly a result of the Gross Margin decrease
explained above and the increase in Selling, General and Administrative
expenses.
 
    Income tax provision decreased to $1.0 million, or 2.8% of net sales for the
thirteen weeks ended June 29, 1997, from $1.1 million or 3.5% of net sales for
the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 1996. The estimated effective tax rate for the
thirteen weeks ended June 29, 1997 was 31%, compared to an estimated effective
tax rate of 35% for the same period in 1996. The lower effective tax rate for
1997 was caused by inflation adjustments on tax attributes in Mexico,
denominated in pesos.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    During the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 1997, the Company had gross
operating funds of $7.4 million, which consisted of net income of $3.8 million
plus depreciation and amortization of $2.0 million, in addition to deferred
taxes and allowances of $1.6 million. This flow of funds financed a net increase
in receivables of $3.0 million and prepaid and other assets of $0.3 million, in
addition to a decrease in accounts payable of $3.0 million, which were offset by
a net decrease in inventories of $5.5 million, accrued expenses and other
liabilities of $1.0 million, resulting in net cash provided by operations of
$7.8 million. The increase in accounts receivable was due to the Company's
increased net sales during the period. The decrease in inventory was due to
increased turnover in qinventories and a line of products phasing out. Cash
provided by operations allowed the Company to pay down $0.3 million of capital
lease obligations and to invest $1.5 million in property, plant, and equipment.
