NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

July 31, 1998

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- ------------------------------

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
reporting and with the instructions to form 10-Q 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 of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the three month period ended July 31, 1998 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended January 31,
1999. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on form 10-K for
the year ended January 31, 1998.

NOTE B - ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
- ------------------------------

As reported in the annual report on form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January
31, 1998, in accordance with a consent agreement signed by the Company in 1993,
the Company's environmental consultant has developed an interim remedial action
plan to contain and remediate certain contamination on and underlying the
Company's property. This plan was submitted to the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) in 1997 and is currently under review and
discussion. During 1997, the company recorded a provision of approximately
$175,000 related to the estimated costs to be incurred under this plan. As of
July 31, 1998, the company has a remaining liability of approximately $99,200
recorded in Other accrued expenses to cover future environmental expenditures
related to the remediation of this site. Before approval of the plan, the FDEP
may require further assessment and testing. Company management believes that any
additional liability in excess of amounts accrued at July 31, 1998 will not have
a material affect on the financial condition of the company.

PART 1.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION
- ------------------------------

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT
OF OPERATIONS

Company wide net sales for the three months ended July 31, 1998 remained
relatively stable at $4,888,000 as compared to $4,893,000 for the same period in
the preceding year. Net sales for the nine months ended July 31, 1998 also
remained relatively stable at $10,216,000 as compared to $10,220,000 for the
same period last year.

Net sales for the Clearwater and Kansas Instrument Divisions for the quarter
ended July 31, 1998 totaled $2,615,000 which represents a $82,000 or 3% decrease
from the same period in the prior year. Sales for Avionics Specialties for the
quarter ended July 31, 1998 were $2,273,000, a $77,000 or 4% decrease over the
same period in the prior fiscal year.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales improved to 37% in the second quarter
of FY1999 versus 35% during the same period in the prior year. During the six
months ended July 31, 1998 gross profit as a percentage of net sales improved to
38% versus 35% during the same period in the prior year. The improvement is the
result of management's continued focus on improving its manufacturing processes
and focus of its sales efforts toward its most highly profitable product lines.

Selling, General and Administrative expenses increased during both the second
quarter and six months ended July 31, 1998 due primarily to increased research
and development expenditures. These increased R&D expenditures were part of the
Company's business plan and related to the development of new programs including
the new Precision Components Division as well as three new military programs and
the new line of two-inch instrumentation.

Interest expense totaled $51,000 for the three months ended July 31, 1998 versus
$67,000 during the same period in the preceding year. The decrease is due
primarily to a renegotiation of interest rates on its existing credit
facilities.

For the second quarter ended July 31, 1998 the Company recorded a net profit of
$55,000, or $0.01 per share. Through the six months ended July 31, 1998, the
company recorded a net profit of $338,000, or $0.09 per share.

Working capital increased to $12,166,000 during the six months ended July 31,
1998 and the Company's current ratio approximated 4.73:1. Significant sources of
cash during the first six months included funds generated from operating
activities and borrowings under the Company's line of credit arrangement.
Significant uses of cash included a $1,099,000 payment of federal and state
income tax liabilities, which included all of FY'98 and the first six months of
FY'99. Net changes in current assets and liabilities, the purchase of property
and equipment and repayment of long-term debt and notes payable, related
comprised the majority of other uses of cash. Company management anticipates
that cash flow from operations, existing cash balances and the availability
under the Company's line of credit arrangement will be sufficient to fund future
growth.
