Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
1. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements and the notes thereto and with Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company's Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996. In the opinion of management, the
accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements contain all
adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of
the Company's financial position as of September 30, 1996 and the results of
operations for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995.
2. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
3. Earnings (loss) per share of common stock is computed on the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the three months ended September
30, 1996 and 1995. The weighted average number of shares outstanding at the end
of each period is determined by totaling the number of shares outstanding at
the end of each month in the period and dividing the sum by the number of
months in the period.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Private Placement of Debentures
The company sold, as of September 30, 1994, eleven debentures for a total of
$275,000. The purpose of the private placement was to acquire the technology
for plating electroless nickel on aluminum, conduct research, development and
test trials with potential customers leading up to commercialization in the
computer disk market.
New York State Energy Research and Development Authority Funding
The company signed an agreement with the New York State Energy Research and
Development Authority (NYSERDA) dated June 22, 1995 for funding of $325,000 for
its new technology. This was done as a part of NYSERD's Industrial Waste
Minimization Program. The purpose of the funding is to provide money for the
completion of research and development, test trials, commercial demonstrations
and commercialization of the technology.
During the quarter ended September 30, 1996 the company received a fourth
payment of $25,800 as a part of NYSERDA's funding program. This brings the
total received to date of $190,000.
Operating Activities
Over the past three fiscal years Coating Technology has shown steady growth in
sales and earnings. Cash flow was adequate to provide for the acquisition of
capital equipment and provide the working capital necessary to run the
business. There was a significant increase in cash generated during the fiscal
year 1996 over 1995 and 1994 as well as the cash balance at the end of the
year. In addition, all relevant measures relating to: Debt to Equity; current
ratio; working capital; and net worth increased substantially.
Through the first three months of fiscal year 1997, Coating Technology operated
profitably with sufficient resources to sustain operations.
If Metal Arts is successful in commercializing its new technology it will be
necessary to raise additional capital. The amount of capital required will
depend on how rapidly market acceptance might occur. If this does occur it
could result in growth in the company's sales and earnings over the next few
years. The company will seek, if commercial sales commence, to raise additional
capital in the form of receivables financing, warrant conversion or other
investment mechanisms to sustain operations.
