Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
All statements contained herein that are not historical facts, including,
but not limited to, statements regarding the Company's current business
strategy, the Company's projected sources and uses of cash, and the Company's
plans for future development and operations, are based upon current
expectations. These statements are forward-looking in nature and involve a
number of risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially. Among
the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the
following: the availability of sufficient capital to finance the Company's
business plans on terms satisfactory to the Company; competitive factors;
changes in labor, equipment and capital costs; changes in regulations affecting
the Company's business and economic conditions; and factors described from time
to time in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any such
forward looking statements, which statements are made pursuant to the Private
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as a result, speak only as of the date made.
Results of Operations: Six months ended August 31, 1996 compared with six
months ended August 31, 1995:
Net Sales
For the six months ended August 31, 1996, the Company's net sales increased
by $602,000 to $7,481,000 from sales of $6,879,000 for the six months ended
August 31, 1995. Sales by the Company's German subsidiary, Soligor GmbH, Foto
Optik Video Electronik ("Soligor GmbH"), increased by DM 1,463,000 which, when
combined with changes in the exchange rate, resulted in an increase in sales of
$602,000 after translation. The Company's sales increased due to efforts of
Soligor GmbH in promoting the sale of new products groups, such as electronic
products and video equipment, an increasing number of accessories, as well as
video surveillance equipment.
Cost of Goods Sold
As a percentage of sales cost of goods sold was 70.6% for the six months
ended August 31, 1996 as compared to 70.3% for the six months ended August 31,
1995.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
For the six months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995, selling, general and
administrative expenses ("SG & A") were 28.3% and 30.9% of sales, respectively.
The decrease in S G & A expenses as a percentage of sales was the result of
increased net sales.

$22,000, or 0.6%. Sales by Soligor GmbH for the three months ended August 31,
1996 increased by DM 274,000 which, when combined with changes in the exchange
rate, resulted in a decrease in sales of $22,000 after translation. The

of new products groups, such as electronic products and video equipment, an
increasing number of accessories, as well as video surveillance equipment.

For the three months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995 SG & A expenses were
29.2% and 30.4% of sales, respectively. The decrease in S G & A expenses as a
