4.       New Accounting Pronouncements

         Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS) No. 128 "Earnings
         Per Share," was recently issued by the Financial  Accounting  Standards
         Board.  SFAS No. 128 is effective for periods  ending after December
         15, 1997 and early adoption is not permitted.

         SFAS No. 128  requires  the company to compute and present a basic and
         diluted earnings per share.  Had the company computed earnings per
         share in  accordance  with SFAS No. 128 the results would have been as
         follows:

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Set forth below is management's discussion and analysis of the
Company's financial condition and results of operations.

         Results of Operations

         In 1997, year-to-date revenues were $6,202,173 with a net income of
$463,765 compared to same-period revenues of $4,050,647 and net income of
$202,042 in 1996.

         Quarter-to-date  revenues were  $3,523,962  with a net income of
$295,906 as compared to 2,306,225 in 1996 with $234,311 profits.

         Communication Products Division (CPD) second quarter 1997 revenues were
$2,809,379 compared to $1,716,515 for the same period in 1996. The group had an
operating income of $172,704 compared to an operating income of $155,012 for the
second quarter of 1996. The increase in revenues is due to a generally higher
level of business in all market segments.

         Government Products Division

         Revenues for the Electro-Optics Technology Group were $206,063 for the
second quarter of 1997 compared to $165,193 for the second quarter of 1996. The
group realized an operating income of $29,576 for the second quarter, which was
an improvement over the loss of ($4,709) incurred in the same quarter of 1996.
The higher revenue reflects the impact of a higher level of contract work for
winding fiber optic gyro coils booked in the first half of 1997. We anticipate
improved revenue for the balance of the year from new contracts in this area.

         Laser Illuminator Division revenues were $508,520 for the quarter
compared to $424,516 for the equivalent period of 1996; operating profit was
$320,581 compared to a profit of $207,265 for the same quarter in 1996. We
anticipate continued significant revenue levels for this segment through the
remainder of the year, with a stable work load on our current contracts, and a
backlog of approximately $1,125,178.

         Costs associated with a new business activity were expensed in the
Government Products Division; this activity had no revenue and costs of
($62,860).

         Company backlog at the end of the June 30, 1997 was $3,011,497.

         Liquidity and Capital Resources

second quarter of 1997. At the end of this quarter the current ratio was 2.35
compared to 2.95 at the end of 1996 and 2.1 at the end of the second quarter of
1996. The overall cash used by operating activities for the first six months of
1997 was ($53,762) compared to $(48,793) the first six months of 1996.
