X Yes No
Third quarter revenues decreased 21% from third quarter 1995 due
principally to shipping delays resulting from a substantial workforce
reduction at the registrant's primary domestic wheelchair manu-
facturing facility and a reduction in distributor sales. Third
quarter 1996 net loss increased to $(4.1) million from 4(0.9) million
reported in 1995. Third quarter 1996 results were adversely impacted
by the decrease in revenues and costs incurred as a result of the
workforce reduction.
