                                AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


1.       CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

                  The consolidated balance sheet as of May 26, 1996, the
         consolidated statements of operations for the thirteen weeks ended May
         26, 1996 and May 28, 1995 and the thirty- nine weeks ended May 26, 1996
         and May 28, 1995 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the
         thirty-nine weeks then ended, respectively, have been prepared by the
         Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
         (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present
         fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for
         all periods presented have been made.

                  The balance sheet at August 27, 1995, is derived from the
         audited balance sheet as of that date. Certain information and footnote
         disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
         accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
         condensed or omitted. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial
         statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
         and notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 1995 annual report
         to shareholders. The results of operations for interim periods are not
         necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

2.       SALE OF REAL ESTATE:

                  On January 4, 1995 the Company sold its Owatonna, Minnesota
         real estate to OTC, a division of SPX Corporation, for a total cash
         consideration of $1,534,000.

3.       PENSION CURTAILMENT:

                  A pension curtailment gain was recorded in the first quarter
         of fiscal 1995. As part of the Owatonna plant closing, all of the
         Owatonna employees who were members of the non-union pension plan were
         either terminated or transferred to the Long Lake facility. As a
         result, during the first quarter of fiscal 1995, a curtailment of the
         non-union employee plan occurred as defined in SFAS No. 88, Employers
         Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension
         Plans and Termination Benefits.

4.       DEBT AND LINE OF CREDIT:

                  On March 31, 1995, the Company amended its line of credit
         agreement and refinanced its term debt. The Agreement, which combines
         the line of credit and term debt, will expire on March 31, 1998 and is
         with the same bank with which the Company previously had its line of
         credit.


     Item 2     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                                       and
                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations:

                  Net sales of $5,493,000 for the quarter ending May 26, 1996
         decreased $2,661,000 or 32.6% from the same quarter of the prior year.
         Sales reductions occurred in the following markets: computer,
         $2,058,000, fire arms, $749,000, marine, $689,000, general industrial,
         $609,000 and small engine, $267,000. Sales to the agricultural and
         automotive markets increased $1,676,000 and $35,000, respectively .

                  Net sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended May 26, 1996
         decreased $7,260,000 or 31.2% from the comparable period of the prior
         year. Sales reductions occurred in the following markets: computer,
         $5,382,000, marine, $1,743,000, fire arms, $1,720,000, general
         industrial, $1,356,000, automotive, $488,000 and small engine,
         $107,000. Sales to the agricultural market increased $3,536,000.

                  Reductions in sales in the third fiscal quarter and
         year-to-date resulted primarily from completed and discontinued
         manufacturing programs.

                  The Company expects fourth quarter fiscal 1996 sales to be
         lower than third quarter fiscal 1996 sales based on trends and
         information received from customers. Sales generated by new customer
         programs awarded to the Company earlier this year have not developed as
         quickly as expected and two major customers will close their assembly
         plants for two weeks in July due to normal, seasonal factors. The
         Company will not make any shipments to those two customers during this
         two week period and will temporarily close production lines that
         manufacture parts for those two customers during two weeks in July. The
         Company expects to resume production for both customers immediately
         after this two week period. The Company expects the reduced level of
         business to result in a loss in the fourth quarter which will more than
         offset the earnings reported through the first three quarters of fiscal
         1996.

                  Gross margin of 11.4% on parts sold in the quarter ended May
         26, 1996 was up slightly from 11.2% in the same quarter of the prior
         year.

                  Gross margin for the three quarters ended May 26, 1996 was
         9.7% compared to 7.4% in the same time period of the prior year. Fiscal
         1996 gross margin is benefiting from cost reductions and manufacturing
         efficiencies which resulted from the plant consolidation that took
         place during fiscal 1995.

                  Selling and administrative expense for the fiscal quarter and
         fiscal three quarters ended May 26, 1996 declined $95,000 or 15.3% and
         $191,000 or 10.6%, respectively, when compared to the same periods of
         the prior year. Reductions in purchased services were primarily
         responsible for the lower expenses.

                  Interest and other income of $70,000 in the third fiscal
         quarter of 1996 was $62,000 higher than the comparable quarter of the
         prior year primarily due to the gain on sale of excess and obsolete
         equipment and interest income.

                  Interest and other income for the three quarters of fiscal
         1996 was $629,000 and exceeded the same time period of the prior year
         by $482,000. The primary reason for the additional income in fiscal
         1996 was the gain on the disposition of excess equipment, related to
         completed and discontinued manufacturing programs, which took place in
         the second quarter of fiscal 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

                  On May 26, 1996 working capital of $2,477,000 was down
         $263,000 from working capital on August 27, 1995. The ratio of current
         assets to current liabilities increased to 1.85:1 on May 26, 1996
         compared to 1.83:1 on August 27, 1995.

                  The Company did not have a balance outstanding on its line of
         credit on May 26, 1996. On that date the Company reported cash and cash
         equivalents of $1,545,000.

                  Total debt of $5,297,000 on May 26, 1996 was $394,000 lower
         than total debt on August 27, 1995. The balance owing under the
         Company's term note on May 26, 1996 was $2,849,000, or $942,000 less
         than the balance owed on August 27, 1995. Due to new capital leases
         entered into, the Company owed an additional $548,000 under capital
         lease arrangements on May 26, 1996 compared to August 27, 1995.

                  It is management's belief that its internally generated funds
         combined with funds available under the line of credit will be
         sufficient to enable the Company to meet its financial requirements
         during the remainder of fiscal 1996.
