2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  Interim Financial Information

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000, and 1999 have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of
normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the
consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ending December 31, 2000. The consolidated financial statements and
footnotes should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in this Form
10-Q and the Company's Forms 10-K and Proxy Statement for the period ended
December 31, 1999, filed on March 29, 2000 and April 28, 2000, respectively,
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which included the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 1999.

  Principles of Consolidation

         The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

  Use of Estimates

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts in the financial statements
and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

  Net Loss Per Share

         Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted
average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is
calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average common shares
outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of stock options. The
dilutive effect of stock options was not assumed for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 because the assumed effect of these securities
would be antidilutive.


3. INVENTORY

         Inventory consisted of the following:

</TABLE>


THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999.

         Revenues. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2000 were $4.4
million compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, an
increase of approximately $1.6 million or 57.1%. Revenues from the wireless and
satellite markets increased approximately $1.6 million and $307,000,
respectively, while revenues from the automotive, defense and electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) markets each declined slightly. Geographically, revenues
from Asia and Europe increased $987,000 and $834,000, respectively, while
revenues from North America declined approximately $278,000 from prior year
levels. The sharp rise in Asian and European revenues is a result of progress on
large wireless contracts, while the decline in North American revenues is a
result of the near completion of large defense contracts.


                                       10
<PAGE>   11
         Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30,
2000 were $3.1 million compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended June
30, 1999. Gross margins increased to 28.7% for the three months ended June 30,
2000 from 14.0% for the three months ended June 30, 1999. This increase is
primarily due to the Company's recognition of export related losses during the
three months ended June 30, 1999. These losses were non recurring during the
three months ended June 30, 2000.

         General and administrative expenses. General and administrative
expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2000 were $692,000 compared to
$604,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, an increase of approximately
$88,000 or 14.6%. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative
expenses decreased to 15.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from 21.4%
for the three months ended June 30, 1999.

         Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses for the
three months ended June 30, 2000 were $591,000 compared to $469,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1999, an increase of approximately $122,000 or
26.0%. As a percentage of revenues, sales and marketing expenses were 13.6% for
the three months ended June 30, 2000, an decrease from 16.7% for the three
months ended June 30, 1999.

         Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses
for the three months ended June 30, 2000 were $235,000 compared to $132,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 1999, an increase of $103,000 or 78.0%. The
increase was due to continued expenditures on development activity focused on
both full systems design in the wireless and automotive markets and new software
development in the U.S. and Europe.

         Other income. Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was
approximately $106,000 compared to $107,000 for the three months ended June 30,
1999.

         Income taxes. Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30,
2000 was $25,000 compared to $246,000 of income tax benefit for the three months
ended June 30, 1999, an increase in expense of $271,000. Although no income tax
benefit on losses was recorded, the Company's income tax expense for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 reflects income taxes recorded by its profitable
foreign operations. The Company recorded a 35% tax benefit for the three months
ended June 30, 1999.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999.

         Revenues. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $8.6
million compared to $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, a
increase of approximately $3.0 million or 53.6%. Revenues from the wireless,
defense, and satellite markets increased approximately $2.2 million, $951,000,
and $98,000, respectively, while revenues from the automotive and
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) markets declined approximately $197,000 and
$98,000, respectively. Geographically, revenues from Asia, Europe, and North
America increased $1.3 million, $881,000 and $717,000 respectively. The sharp
increase in revenues resulted from the continued progress on large North
American defense related contracts, and further inroads into Asia and Europe.

         Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30,
2000 were $5.9 million compared to $5.1 million for the six months ended June
30, 1999. Gross margins increased to 30.9% for the six months ended June 30,
2000 from 8.9% for the six months ended June 30, 1999. This increase is
primarily due to the Company's recognition of export related losses during the
six months ended June 30, 1999. These losses were not repeated during the six
months ended June 30, 2000.

         General and administrative expenses. General and administrative
expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $1.4 million compared to
$1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999,


                                       11
<PAGE>   12
an increase of approximately $100,000 or 7.7%. As a percentage of revenues,
general and administrative expenses decreased to 16.5% for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 from 22.8% for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

         Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 were $1.0 million compared to $947,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1999. As a percentage of revenues, sales and marketing
expenses were 12.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2000, a decrease from
16.8% for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

         Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $466,000 compared to $231,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1999, a decrease of $235,000 or 101.7% due mainly
to continued expenditures on development activity focused on both full systems
design in the wireless and automotive markets and new software development in
the U.S. and Europe.

         Other income. Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was
approximately $108,000 compared to $201,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1999. This decrease reflects a reduction in the Company's cash balances
available for investment.

         Income taxes. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2000
was $66,000 compared to a $615,000 income tax benefit for the six months ended
June 30, 1999, an increase in expense of $681,000. Although no income tax
benefit on losses was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2000, the
Company's income tax expense for the period reflects income taxes recorded by
its profitable foreign operations. The Company recorded a 35% tax benefit for
the six months ended June 30, 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Historically, the Company has satisfied its working capital
requirements through cash flows from its operations. Reductions in revenues and
increased costs associated with the recently completed investigation into the
Company's past export practices and the related commodities jurisdiction, have
reversed this trend and caused negative cash flows from operations for the past
two years.

         Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June
30, 2000 was $1.8 million, resulting primarily from a decrease in accounts
payable and accrued expenses, and relating mainly to the Company's payment of
the $600,000 U.S. Customs fine. In addition, the net change in the Company's
accounts receivable, costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on
uncompleted contracts, customer advances, and billings in excess of costs and
recognized earnings on uncompleted contracts resulted in an $844,000 decrease in
cash provided by operating activities.

         Net cash used in investing activities, resulting primarily from
purchases of property and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2000
and 1999 were $196,000 and $284,000, respectively.

         Net cash provided by financing activities was $22,000 and $0 for the
six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 respectively, relating to the exercise
of common stock options.

         During 2000, the Company plans to incur capital expenditures of
approximately $450,000, ($431,000 incurred in 1999) a portion of which will be
used to improve the Company's hardware and software tools.

         The Company has exposure to currency fluctuations as a result of
billing certain of its contracts in foreign currency. When selling to customers
in countries with less stable currencies, the Company bills in U.S. dollars. For
the six months ended June 30, 2000, approximately 98% of the Company's revenues
were


                                       12
<PAGE>   13
billed in U.S. dollars. Substantially all of the costs of the Company's
contracts, including costs subcontracted to the Parent, have been, and will
continue to be, U.S. dollar-denominated except for wages for employees of the
Company's Israeli and German subsidiaries, which are denominated in local
currency. The Company intends to continue to enter into U.S. dollar-denominated
contracts.

INFLATION AND SEASONALITY

         The Company does not believe that inflation or seasonality has had a
significant effect on the Company's operations to date.


IMPACT OF YEAR 2000

         In prior years, the Company discussed the nature and progress of its
plan to become Year 2000 ready. In late 1999, the Company completed its
remediation and testing of its systems. As a result of those planning and
implementation efforts, the Company experienced no significant disruptions in
mission critical information technology and non-information technology systems
and believes those systems successfully responded to the Year 2000 date change.
The Company expensed less than $10,000 in connection with this effort. The
Company is not aware of any material problems resulting from Year 2000 issues,
either with its products, its internal systems, or the products or services of
third parties. The Company will continue to monitor its mission critical
computer applications and those of its suppliers and vendors throughout the year
2000 to ensure that any latent Year 2000 matters that may arise are addressed
promptly.
