Three Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared with June 30, 1995

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 were  approximately  $10.9 million
compared with $10.3 million in the corresponding quarter last year. The increase
was  principally  due to  higher  international  sales.  The  backlog  of orders
decreased $.3 million during the quarter to $2.5 million at June 30, 1996 due to
lower order intake principally in the U.S. market.

Gross profit  margins for the current  quarter were 25.1% compared with 21.8% in
the corresponding  quarter one year ago. The margin increase was due principally
to a beneficial  sales mix of products  with higher  margins such as control and
certain new digital video products.

Operating  expenses  for the current  quarter  were similar to last year at $2.5
million.  Inflationary  increases were offset by ongoing cost control  measures.
Interest  expense  decreased  approximately  $50,000 to $209,000 for the current
year quarter due principally to a lower cost of borrowing.

During the current quarter,  the Company incurred an unrealized foreign exchange
gain of approximately  $14,000 compared with a $6,000 gain in the  corresponding
quarter last year.  These gains  resulted from the Company's  revaluation of its
yen denominated mortgage obligation into U.S. dollars.

The increase in current  quarter  pretax  income of  approximately  $606,000 was
principally  due to higher  sales  and  gross  profit  margins  on sales,  lower
interest expense and favorable foreign currency effects during the quarter.



Results of Operations
Nine Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared with June 30, 1995

Net sales for the nine  months  ended  June 30,  1996 were  approximately  $32.3
million compared with $33.1 million in the  corresponding  period last year. The
decrease of 2.4% was principally due to lower European sales.

Gross profit margins for the nine months ended June 30, 1996 were 25.4% compared
with 22.1% in the corresponding period one year ago. The margin increase was due
principally  to a beneficial  sales mix of products with higher  margins such as
control and certain new digital video products.

Operating  expenses  for the nine months  ended June 30,  1996  declined to $7.3
million from $7.4 million in the  corresponding  period last year due to ongoing
cost control measures.  Interest expense decreased by approximately  $163,000 to
$630,000 for the current period due principally to a lower cost of borrowing.

During the current period,  the Company incurred an unrealized  foreign exchange
gain of $34,000  compared with a $90,000 loss in the  corresponding  period last
year. These gains and losses resulted from the Company's  revaluation of its yen
denominated mortgage obligation into U.S. dollars.

The increase in current period pretax income of  approximately  $1.3 million was
principally  due to increased  gross profit  margins on sales,  lower  operating
expenses,  lower interest expense, and favorable foreign currency effects during
the period.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

June 30, 1996 Compared with September 30, 1995

Working capital  increased  approximately  $1.1 million to $11.8 million at June
30, 1996  principally as a result of increased bank  borrowings  used to finance
higher inventory levels.

Accounts receivable increased  approximately $.7 million to $9.1 million at June
30, 1996,  principally as a result of slower  receivable  turnover.  Inventories
increased  approximately  $3.1  million to $15.2  million  at June 30,  1996 due
mainly to increased inventory levels of new products. Accounts payable increased
approximately  $2.2  million to $10.5  million at June 30,  1996 to support  the
inventory levels.

The Company has a revolving credit facility of 700,000 pounds sterling  (approx.
$1.1 million) in the U.K. to support local working capital requirements. At June
30, 1996, borrowings under this agreement were approximately $898,000.

In December 1995, the Company repaid $2.8 million of bank debt with the proceeds
of a new U.S. bank loan.  The new two year loan  agreement  provides for maximum
borrowings  of  $4,000,000,  subject to an  availability  formula  based on U.S.
accounts receivable and inventories. Borrowings under such agreement amounted to
approximately  $4.0  million  at June  30,  1996.  Concurrent  with the new loan
agreement,  the Company  amended its  $2,000,000  secured  promissory  note with
Chugai  Boyeki Co.,  Ltd., a related  party,  to defer all  scheduled  principal
installments to July 1998. The Company  believes that the new loan agreement and
its other sources of credit provide  adequate funding to meet its near term cash
requirements.
