RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net sales increased 10% in the third quarter of 1997, up $200,000 over
the third quarter of 1996. For the first nine months, net sales were $7
million or 12% higher than the same period in 1996. The majority of the sales
increase is due to increased production and tubing requirements of our
customer, Ford Truck Division, Louisville, Kentucky. There are no increases
in net sales for this period due to selling price increases. The reason being
is that the automotive-truck industry does not allow price increases on parts
once placed in production.
Gross profits from operations increased to 26.5% of sales during the
quarter ending May 31, 1997, as compared to the year earlier period of 9.8%.
This positive result is primarily due to a reduction of raw material cost and,
secondarily, to increased direct labor efficiency.
Selling and administrative expenses increased to 11.5% of sales during
the quarter ending May 31, 1997, as compared to the year earlier period of
7.2%. The nine month comparison is 10.0% for May 31, 1997, and 8.6% for May,
1996. The increased dollar amount of $180,000 is due to increased personnel
($110,000), professional services ($35,000), and taxes ($35,000). Also, during
the quarter, Chrysler Corp. issued a check to us in the amount of $350,000
(recorded under Misc. Income) in final payment of all expenses incurred because
Knusaga Corp. is no longer a supplier of seats for the van line. This
discontinuance of production occurred in the spring of 1995.
Net income increased to a positive $454,000 in the quarter as compared
to $6,000 during the same period during 1996. The nine month period produced
net income of $622,000 as compared to a loss of $145,000 for the previous year.
The significant improvement in net income is the result of stable margins on
improved sales and the reduction of material cost and other expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL
The company's net cash flow position for the nine months ending May 31,
1997, generated $752,000 of cash from operating activities as compared to a
$96,000 decrease for the same period a year ago.
During this period, we purchased $125,000 of equipment, decreased our
long-term notes $203,000, and reduced our short-term line of credit $420,000,
resulting in an ending cash balance of $38,241. The Company expects that
available cash and existing short-term lines of credit will be sufficient to
meet normal operating requirements over the near term.
CONTINGENT MATTERS
There are no contingencies or consequential uncertainties known that
will materially affect the financial information as presented.
