Note: (1) Includes a $425,000 provision for the loss on the sale of the
building in Acton, Massachusetts.
(2) Reflects accounting for the electromechanical segment as
discontinued operations, including a provision of $600,000 for
operating losses during the phase-out period, as a result of
the decision in December 1997 to sell this division.
(3) Fully diluted net income per share is considered to be the
same as primary net income per share since the effect of the
potentially dilutive convertible preferred stock is currently
antidilutive.
