                    Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                   ------------------------------------------

1.   In the  opinion  of  management  the  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated
     financial  statements  contain all  adjustments  (consisting of only normal
     recurring  adjustments)  necessary  for a fair  presentation of results for
     such  periods.  The  results  for any  interim  period are not  necessarily
     indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.  Certain
     information  and  footnote   disclosures  normally  included  in  financial
     statements  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
     principles  have been  condensed  or omitted.  These  financial  statements
     should  be read in  conjunction  with the  Company's  most  recent  audited
     financial statements included in its 2000 Form 10-K.

2.   The basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing income available
     to common  stockholders  by the weighted  average  number of common  shares
     outstanding  for the period.  Diluted EPS is computed  giving effect to all
     dilutive  potential common shares that were outstanding  during the period.
     Dilutive  potential common shares consist of the incremental  common shares
     issuable  upon the  exercise of stock  options  for all  periods  using the
     treasury stock method.

3.   Other income consists principally of government grants related to increased
     employment,  interest on  Certificates of Deposit,  Treasury  Bills,  money
     market accounts and dividends on equity securities.

4.   For purposes of the  statements  of cash flows,  the Company  considers all
     liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to
     be cash equivalents.

5.   In fiscal 1989 the Company  established  an Employee  Stock  Ownership Plan
     (ESOP) for eligible  non-union  employees.  The ESOP used the proceeds of a
     loan from the Company to purchase  316,224  shares of the Company's  common
     stock  for   approximately   $8.4  million  and  the  Company   contributed
     approximately  $400,000 to the ESOP, which was used by the ESOP to purchase
     an additional 15,000 shares of the Company's common stock.

     The loan from the Company to the ESOP is repayable  in annual  installments
     of  $1,039,605, including  interest,  through  June  30, 2004.  Interest is
     payable at a rate of 9% per annum.  The Company's  receivable from the ESOP
     is recorded as common stock subscribed in the accompanying balance sheets.

     Each year,  the Company will make  contributions  to the ESOP which will be
     used to make  loan  interest  and  principal  payments.  With each loan and
     interest  payment,  a portion of the  common  stock  will be  allocated  to
     participating employees. As of September 30, 2000 there were 197,136 shares
     allocated to participants.

6.   Total comprehensive income consists of:

                                                 Three Months Ended

7.   Stock Options

     On  October  29,  1999,  the  Board  of  Directors  approved,   subject  to
     shareholder approval, the 2000 Stock Option Plan (the Plan). Under the Plan
     and related incentive stock option  agreements,  options will be granted to
     purchase  shares of common stock of the Company with an exercise  price not
     less than the fair value of a share of such common stock at the date of the
     grant and vest over a period not to exceed ten years as will be  determined
     by the Option Committee which will administer the Plan. Non-Qualified stock
     options will be issued in accordance with the Plan.  Shareholders  approved
     the Plan at the Annual Meeting on January 4, 2000.

     The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
     for Stock Issued to  Employees,"  in accounting  for the Plan. To determine
     the  necessary  pro  forma  disclosure  information  the  Company  utilizes
     Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.  123  "Accounting  for
     Stock-Based  Compensation".  On March 1, 2000,  11,500  stock  options were
     granted under the Plan. All options were granted at fair market value.

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
---------------------

Net sales for the three  months  ended  September  30, 2000 were  $4,167,234  as
compared to $3,298,980 for the same period in 1999. The $868,254 increase in net
sales  for the  three-month  period is mainly  due to  increased  sales of power
supplies and radar  transmitters.  Due to successful  marketing efforts with new
and existing  customers the Company  should  continue to see increased net sales
levels as backlog orders are completed and shipped.

During the first  quarter of fiscal 2001 gross  profits as a percentage of sales
increased approximately 4% as compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2000.

Net income for the three  months ended  September  30, 2000 was $203,419 or $.20
per share  compared  to $39,596 or $.04 per share for the  corresponding  period
ended September 30, 1999.

The  increase in gross profit and net income was  primarily  due to higher sales
volume and changes in contract/product mix. Management continues to evaluate the
Company's  workforce to insure that production and overall  execution of backlog
orders and additional  anticipated  orders are successfully  performed.  Present
employment is approximately 240 people.

Selling,  general and administrative expenses were $460,251 for the three months
ended  September  30, 2000, a decrease of $33,349,  or 6.8%,  as compared to the
three months ended  September  30, 1999.  This  decrease was  primarily due to a
decrease in selling expenses.

Total other  income for the three  months  ended  September  30, 2000  decreased
$61,292, compared to the three months ended September 30, 1999. This decrease is
due to lower  interest  income and lower funds  received  related to  government
grants for increased employment.  The Company does not believe that there is any
risk  associated  with  its  investment  policy,   since  the  majority  of  its
investments are  represented by United States  Government  Treasury  Securities,
preferred equity securities and a money market account.

The Company continues to diversify its customer base and product offerings.  The
backlog at  September  30, 2000 was  approximately  $27,339,000,  as compared to
approximately $27,871,000 at September 30, 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

As of  September  30,  2000,  the Company had working  capital of $21.4  million
compared to $21.2  million at June 30, 2000.  The Company  meets its  short-term
financing  needs  through  cash from  operations  and when  necessary,  from its
existing cash and short term investments.

The table below presents the summary of cash flow for the periods indicated:

Net cash used in financing activities                   $   51,682      $  245,655
</TABLE>

Net cash provided by operating  activities  fluctuates between periods primarily
as a result of  differences  in net  income,  the  timing of the  collection  of


                                     - 7 -

accounts  receivable,  purchase  of  inventory,  level of sales and  payment  of
accounts  payable.  The  decrease in net cash  provided  by (used in)  investing
activities  is due to the maturity of investment  securities  with no offsetting
purchase  of new  investments.  The  decrease  in net  cash  used  in  financing
activities is due to decreased treasury stock purchases.

The  Company  currently  believes  that its  current  cash  and cash  equivalent
balances and the cash generated from  operations  will be sufficient to meet its
long-term  funding  requirements.  Management has in place a $3,000,000  line of
credit to help fund further growth. For the first quarter of fiscal 2000 capital
expenditures were approximately $160,000.

Since the debt of the Company's  ESOP is not to an outside party the Company has
eliminated from the  Consolidated  Statements of Income the offsetting  items of
interest  income  and  interest  expenses  relating  to ESOP.  The  Company  has
also eliminated the offsetting accruals from the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the three months ended September 30, 2000, the Company did not repurchase
any of its common stock.  During the three months ended  September 30, 1999, the
Company  repurchased  15,027 shares of its common stock from the Company's  ESOP
and other  public  transactions.  Under  existing  Board  authorizations,  as of
September  30, 2000,  $925,750  could be utilized to  repurchase  the  Company's
common stock.

Year 2000 Issues

The  Company's  information   technology  systems  successfully   completed  the
transition  into the year 2000.  The  beginning  of the new year  resulted in no
adverse or negative  impact on  operations.  The Company  believes that the risk
associated with the year 2000 problem has been  identified and  eliminated.  The
Company will continue to evaluate the 2000 readiness of its business systems and
significant  vendors to ensure a complete  transition through the year 2000. The
estimated total cost of the year 2000  assessment and remediation  plan has been
less than $25,000.
