                         (A development stage company)

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated
basis.  They include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned inactive
subsidiary, Revenue Process Development, Inc.  All intercompany transactions
and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying, unaudited, consolidated,
condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments with the exception of the public offering that was
recorded) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company and
its results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.
Such financial statements have been condensed in accordance with the applicable
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and therefore, do not
include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 1996.


Loss Per Share of Common Stock

Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the period.  Supplementary pro forma loss per share gives
effect to the conversions of debt to equity and preferred stock into common
stock and excludes 410,000 shares held in escrow.  Shares issuable pursuant to
stock options are excluded from the supplementary loss and weighted average
number of common shares outstanding because the effect is antidilutive.


NOTE 2    COMMON STOCK ISSUANCE

On October 14, 1996 the Company completed an initial public offering of
1,700,000 units, each unit consisting of one share of common stock, one Class A
Warrant and one Class B Warrant. On November 4, 1996, the underwriter exercised
its over-allotment option to purchase an additional 255,000 units. The initial
public offering resulted in total net proceeds to the Company of approximately
$8,000,000.


                                       7


<PAGE>   8


A portion of the proceeds of this offering were used to repay (1) the principal
balance of and accrued interest on certain notes  (the "Bridge Notes") issued
in connection with a private placement in April and May 1996 in the aggregate
amount of approximately $2,100,000 and (2) the $150,000 cumulative dividends on
the Series A Preferred Stock.  The 250,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock
were converted to 184,486 shares of Common Stock on the closing of the
offering.  In the quarter ended December 31, 1996, the Company charged to
earnings approximately $520,000 relating to the repayment of the Bridge Notes.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company is a development stage company organized to develop, design, and
market value-added packaging and specialty display products.  Since its
inception, the Company's efforts have been principally devoted to research,
development and design of products, marketing activities and raising capital.
The Company has had only limited sales, has generated minimal revenues from
operations and has incurred substantial operating losses from these activities.

Most of the Company's sales to date did not involve significant orders and the
Company believes that these customers were primarily evaluating the commercial
potential of the Company's products.  The Company also incurred significant
costs associated with such sales in part because a large percentage of finished
product was distributed free of charge as samples.  The Company's sales efforts
have also been adversely affected by periods with no operations, a lack of
continuity of management and inadequate capital.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Three Months Ended December 31, 1995 and 1996.  Net sales increased from
approximately $0 to $15,000 during the three months ended December 31, 1995
("1995 Three Months") and December 31, 1996 ("1996 Three Months"),
respectively.  The Company initiated sales, some of which were samples for
customer evaluation, shortly after completion of its public offering of stock
in October, 1996. Gross profit (loss), which includes the costs of items
manufactured as well as the cost of samples, was approximately $(100,000) in
the 1995 Three Months as compared to $5,000 in the 1996 Three Months.  Gross
loss in 1995 was primarily attributable to the amount of product given away as
samples.  The gross profit margin in the 1996 Three Months includes
preproduction costs and therefore is not indicative of future margins.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 47% from $167,000 in the
1995 Three Months to $246,000 in the 1996 Three Months.   The increase is
primarily attributable to increased business activity subsequent to the
Company's public stock offering in October, 1996.

In the 1996 Three Months the Company charged to earnings approximately $520,000
relating to the repayment of the Bridge Notes.

Interest expense decreased from approximately $28,000 for the 1995 Three Months
to approximately $9,000 for the 1996 Three Months as all debt was repaid with
proceeds from the Company's public stock offering in October, 1996.



                                       9


<PAGE>   10


Interest income increased from zero in the 1995 Three Months to approximately
$53,000 in the 1996 Three Months as cash proceeds from the Company's public
stock offering in October, 1996 have been invested in short term cash
investments to the extent not needed for current operations.

Net loss increased 107% from approximately $343,000 in the 1995 Three Months to
$712,000 in the 1996 Three Months, as a result of the foregoing factors.


     Nine Months Ended December 31, 1995 and 1996.  Net sales decreased from
approximately $107,000 in the nine months ended December 31, 1995 ("1995 Nine
Months") to $15,000 in the nine months ended December 31, 1996 ("1996 Nine
Months"). Gross profit (loss), which includes the costs of items manufactured
as well as the cost of samples,  was approximately $(116,000) in the 1995 Nine
Months as compared to $5,000 in the 1996 Nine Months. The gross profit margin
in the 1996 Nine Months includes preproduction costs and therefore is not
indicative of future margins.  The gross loss in 1995 was primarily
attributable to the amount of product given away as samples.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 69% from
approximately $631,000 in the 1995 Nine Months to approximately $1,065,000 in
the 1996 Nine Months. The increase is primarily attributable to (1)
approximately $386,000 relating to the fair market value of stock options
granted by two principal stockholders of the Company to the Company's Chairman,
President and Chief Executive Officer and (2) increased business activity prior
and subsequent to the Company's public stock offering in October, 1996.

In the 1996 Nine Months the Company charged to earnings approximately $944,000
relating to the repayment of the Bridge Notes.

Interest expense increased by approximately 96% from approximately $63,000 for
the 1995 Nine Months to approximately $124,000 for the 1996 Nine Months.  The
increase is primarily due to an increase in interest bearing debt outstanding
during the 1996 Nine Months, which was retired in October, 1996 with the use of
part of the proceeds from the October, 1996 sale of stock.

Interest income increased from zero in the 1995 Nine Months to approximately
$53,000 in the 1996 Nine Months as cash proceeds from the Company's public
stock offering in October, 1996 have been invested in short term cash
investments to the extent not needed for current operations.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Prior to the public stock offering, the Company funded its activities through
loans from principal stockholders and private placements of equity and debt
securities. On October 15, 1996, the Company sold 1,700,000 units at $5 per
unit in a public offering (See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Each unit consists of one share of common stock, one Class A Warrant

                                       10

and one Class B Warrant.  On November 4, 1996 the underwriter exercised its
over-allotment option to purchase an additional 255,000 units at $5 per unit.
The initial public offering resulted in total net proceeds to the Company of
approximately $8,000,000.

The net proceeds were used to: (1) repay the bridge debt of $1,995,000 plus
accrued interest, (2)  pay the $150,000 accrued dividends on preferred stock,
(3) repay other existing debt and payables of approximately $320,000 and (4)
provide working capital for operations.   The remaining proceeds of the
offering are intended to be used by the Company to implement its business plan,
which includes the development and testing of products utilizing the LTI
Processed method and sales and marketing activities.  The Company expects to
continue to incur substantial research, development and marketing costs in the
future.  The Company also expects that general and administrative costs
necessary to support manufacturing and the expansion of a marketing and sales
organization will increase in the future.  Accordingly, the Company expects to
continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future.

In the event of the release of the Escrow Shares, the Company will recognize
during the period in which the earnings thresholds are probable of being met or
such stock price levels achieved, a substantial non-cash charge to earnings (not
deductible for income tax purposes) equal to the fair market value of such
shares on the date of their release, which would have the effect of
significantly increasing the Company's loss or reducing or eliminating earnings,
if any, at such time.  There can be no assurance that the Company will attain
the targets which would enable the Escrow Shares to be released from escrow.

At December 31, 1996 the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards for
Federal income tax purposes of approximately $6,100,000.  The net operating
loss and credit carry-forwards expire from March, 2008 through March, 2011.
Additionally, the Company's ability to utilize its net operating loss
carry-forwards may be subject to annual limitations pursuant to Section 382 of
the Internal Revenue Code as a result of this Offering.

In February, 1997 the Company arranged to lease its employees from a
professional employer's organization.  The purposes of the arrangement are to
reduce clerical tasks normally associated with administration of payroll and to
provide benefits to the employees that the Company is not able to offer at a
feasible cost, and are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's
employment relationships.  The Company maintains its employment-at-will policy
with these employees.
