ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

(a)  BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT.
     --------------------

(1)    Dynamic Materials Corporation, formerly Explosive Fabricators,
     Inc. (herein the "Company") was incorporated in the State of
     Colorado in 1971.

(2)    There has been no bankruptcy, receivership or similar
     proceeding.

(3)    There has been no material reclassification, merger,
     consolidation, or purchase or sale of a significant amount of
     assets not in the ordinary course of business during the last
     three years.

(b)  BUSINESS OF ISSUER.  The Company was organized to engage in the
     ------------------
business of explosion metal working.

(1)    The principal product produced by explosion metal working is a
     metal plate composed of two or more materials bonded together by
     an explosive process.  Forms of explosion metal working include:
     cladding, where two or more metals are explosively joined to each
     --------
     other; and forming, where metals are shaped, shock hardened, or
                --------
     altered using explosives as an energy source. 

     Clad metal is used in industrial applications where corrosion
     resistance, or physical properties of the metals are significant. 
     Primary industrial markets include chemical processing and
     petrochemicals.  Forming is used primarily in aircraft and
     aerospace applications.  The Company has diversified its market
     base to also include aerospace and electronic applications for
     clad and formed metals.
     
     The Company operates in only one geographic region, the United
     States.  Export sales during 1995 and 1994 did not exceed 20% of
     annual Net Sales each year.
<PAGE>
     The Company's comparative backlog of unfilled customer purchase
     orders is as follows:

                                Amounts in (000's)
                                ------------------
                                        JANUARY 31
                                        ----------
                               1996    1995    1994
                               ----    ----    ----
                              $7,998  $5,106  $4,991

The January 31, 1996 backlog is expected to be completed entirely
during 1996. Of the total backlog approximately 94% is associated with
the Company's cladding technology, while less than 6% is associated
with explosion forming technology.

(2)    The Company distributes its products principally in North
     America primarily through its internal sales organization.  The
     Company also uses independent sales representatives in specific
     industries or territories to complement and extend its internal
     selling efforts.

       There was no material change in the types of products, markets
     or method of distributing the Company's products during 1995.

(3)    There are currently no new product or services.

(4)    The Company experiences price competition from numerous
     competitive processes including: roll bonding, weld overlay, and
     other metals welding technology.  In addition, the Company
     experiences direct from domestic and international competitors
     using technology and processes substantially the same as used by
     the Company.  Direct domestic competition includes, among others,
     two private companies and a department of E.I. Du Pont de
     Nemours & Company, Inc.  International competition is primarily
     from private companies located in France and Japan.  In addition,
     the Company experiences competition in a majority of its products
     which can be produced using different metalworking processes. 
     The Company competes on the basis of price, quality of its
     products and prompt manufacture and delivery of its products.

(5)    Raw materials such as steel, stainless steel, aluminum,
     titanium, nickel, copper, Monel and Incoloy are available on a
     competitive basis from numerous domestic sources.

(6)    The Company's cladding technology is not dependent upon one or
     a few major customers.  However, approximately 4% (December 31,
     1995) and 14% (December 31, 1994) respectively of the Company's
     total Net Sales were with a single forming customer. 

(7)    The Company holds numerous United States patents related to the
     business of explosion metal working and metallic products
     produced by various explosive processes.  The Company's current
     patents expire between 1996 and 2011; however, expiration of any
     single patent is not expected to have a material adverse effect
     on the Company or its operations.

(8)     The Company does not require governmental approval of its
     principal products or services.
<PAGE>
(9)    The effect of existing or probable governmental regulations on
     the issuer is not considered material.

(10)   Company sponsored research and development expenses for the
     last two years were $345,375 in 1995 and $578,676 in fiscal 1994.
     In addition to the above amounts there were customer sponsored
     research and development activities during the last two years in
     amounts which were not material.

(11)   The Company has not experienced and does not anticipate
     significant capital commitment of earnings or competitive
     impairment in complying with existing environmental laws or
     regulations.

(12)   The Company employed eighty-nine people as of January 31, 1996,
     of which eighty-three are full-time employees.  The majority of
     the employment is in unskilled or semiskilled manufacturing and
     is highly sensitive to changes in production volume and product
     mix.

     ITEM 2.  DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

     The Company acquired its principal manufacturing site at 1301
     Courtesy Road, Louisville, Colorado, during 1981.

     The Company also leases additional office space in Lafayette,
     Colorado and manufacturing space.  The Company believes that its
     current facilities are adequate for its existing operations. 
     Substantially all of the Company's assets, including its
     facility, are pledged to secure borrowing from a bank (see Note 3
     to the financial statements).

     ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     No material legal proceedings to which the issuer is a party, or
     to  which any of its property is subject, are pending.  The
     Company is not aware of any proceedings being contemplated
     against it by any governmental authority.

     ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

     (a)  The Company held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders on
          July 21, 1995.

<PAGE>
ITEM 6.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

                    LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The term "liquidity", as used herein, is defined as the ability of the
Company to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for
cash.  The interpretation is broad in that both internal as well as
external sources of liquidity over the short and long term are
considered.  Capital resources represent those assets currently
available to the Company that may be used to satisfy both liquidity as
well as other requirements for funds, such as anticipated capital
expenditures (for property, plant and equipment).  As noted in the
Statements of Cash Flows (see financial statements F-6 to F-7), Net
cash flows from operating activities was $66,243 in 1995 in comparison
to $504,499 in 1994. The Net cash flows from operating activities in
1995 were generated by Net Income and an increase in accounts payable,
offset by significant increases in accounts receivable and
inventories. Cash flows used in investing activities declined to more
typical levels, particularly when contrasted to the significant level
of capital spending in 1994. Cash flows from financing activities were
less in 1995  than in 1994 because the Company realized $400,000 in
proceeds of long-term debt in 1994 and the Company made a balloon
payment on long-term debt in 1995.  The current ratio was 2.3 to 1.0
at December 31, 1995 compared to 2.9 to 1.0 at December 31, 1994.

Historically, and currently, the Company has secured the major portion
of its operational financing from three sources:  (1) internally
generated funds; (2) an asset-based revolving line of credit and (3)
trade credit.  At December 31, 1995 $600,000 was outstanding compared
to $100,000 at December 31, 1994 under the revolving line of credit. 
The increase in outstanding debt was due to the increase in work-in-
process inventories on higher order backlog in 1995.

Trade accounts payable made up 66% and 70% of total current
liabilities in calendar 1995 and 1994, respectively.  As of
December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 the Company had $1,400,000 and
$1,900,000, respectively, of unused borrowing availability under the
revolving line of credit. Borrowing availability is dependent upon
adequate amounts of collatteral to support any borrowings that may
occur.  The line of credit is secured by qualifying trade receivables
and inventory. The line is renewable annually on April 30, subject to
bank review and approval.

The line of credit has been outstanding since 1989 and renewed each
year since 1990.  If the line were not extended or similar financing 
was not secured, such event could negatively affect the Company's
ability to meet its cash requirements.  Long-term debt consists of:
installment notes payable to financial institutions in the original
principal amount of $407,952, and a remaining balance of $271,373 as
of December 31, 1995 (See Note 3 to the financial statements) such
notes mature in 1998 and 1999.
<PAGE>
The nature of the Company's business is contract specific versus
standard products.  Accordingly, failure to complete contracts on a
timely basis or failure to obtain future contracts at a profitable
rate could adversely affect the Company's ability to meet its cash
requirements  through internal sources.

The amount of capital expenditures needed to support the cladding
technology  closely approximated the annual  exhaustion of assets as
represented by depreciation expense in 1995. 1995's  capital spending
levels were much lower than the amounts expended in 1994, which were
previously noted as an unusual and non-recurring level of expenditure
for a specific asset replacement. In 1996 the Company expects spending
levels for property, plant and equipment to remain at a more typical
level of approximately $300,000-$500,000.

                         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table summarizes certain items included in the Company's
Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 1995 and

<PAGE>
1995 COMPARED TO 1994

Net Sales increased $4,193,645 or 27% in 1995 in comparison to 1994.
The increase is due to strong demand in the cladding market, along
with more effective selling efforts in 1995. The Gross Margin on Net
Sales increased by $78,999, or 2%.  Cost of Products Sold in 1995
includes increased amounts expensed during the year for product
repairs as well as a write-down of a specific job's work-in-process
inventory balance to a realizable value at December 31, 1995. 
Finally, during the year ended December 31, 1995 the Company realized
lower Net Sales of product produced which uses its forming technology. 
Forming Sales typically carry higher manufacturing margins than
products produced by its cladding technology. In addition, the 1994
results include proceeds from the final settlement of terminated
explosion forming contracts which contributed approximately $373,000
to 1994's Gross Margin.  If this non-recurring termination effect were
not included in 1994's results, 1995 results would have demonstrated a
12% increase over the adjusted 1994 Gross Margin amount.  (See Note 7
to the financial statements).

Selling expenses increased by $313,224 or 25% over 1994 levels.  The
increase occurred primarily due to the retention and relocation of a
new Vice President of Marketing and Sales in 1995, along with
increased outside sales personnel and certain incentive compensation
payments made in 1995 to Sales personnel.

General and Administrative expense decreased by $35,596 or 3% in 1995
due the elimination of certain relocation and severance payments made
in 1994.

Research and Development costs declined in 1995 by $233,301 or
approximately 40%.  This significant decline was due to completion of
explosion forming projects in 1995, as well as the direction of more
engineering support being directed at ongoing production work.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Board of Directors of
     Dynamic Materials Corporation:


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DYNAMIC MATERIALS
CORPORATION (a Colorado corporation) as of December 31, 1995 and 1994,
and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and
cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Dynamic
Materials Corporation as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

(1)  ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
     -------------------------

Dynamic Materials Corporation (the "Company"), formerly Explosive
Fabricators, Inc., was incorporated in the state of Colorado in 1971,
for the purpose of explosive metal working.  The Company is based in
the United States and has customers throughout North America, Western
Europe and the Far East.  The Company uses two primary technologies--
cladding, in which two or more metals are metallurgically joined; and
forming, in which metals and clad metals are shaped, shock hardened or
altered by using explosives.  A significant portion of the Company's
revenues and receivables are from cladding sales to the chemical
processing industry.

     -----------------------------

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost.  Additions,
improvements and betterments are capitalized when incurred. 
Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as the costs are
incurred.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method

     Intangible Assets
     -----------------

The Company holds numerous United States product and process patents
related to the business of explosion metal working and metallic
products produced by various explosive processes.  The Company's
current patents expire between 1996 and 2010; however, expiration of
any single patent is not expected to have a material adverse effect on
the Company or its operations.

Patent costs are included in other assets in the accompanying balance
sheets and include primarily legal and filing fees associated with the
patent registration.  These costs are amortized over the expected
useful life of the issued patent, up to 17 years.

     Revenue Recognition
     -------------------

The Company's contracts with its customers generally require the
delivery of several products per contract.  The Company records
revenue from its contracts using the completed contract method upon
shipment of completed products to the customer.  If, as a contract
proceeds toward completion, projected total cost on an individual
contract indicates a potential loss, the Company provides currently
for such anticipated loss.


                                  F-9<PAGE>
     Research and Development Costs
     ------------------------------

Research and development expenditures for the creation and application
of new and improved products and processes are expensed as incurred
and consist of labor, materials and related overhead expenses.

     Net Income Per Share
     --------------------

Net income per common share has been computed based upon the weighted
average number of shares of common stock and, if the aggregate
dilutive effect is greater than 3%, common stock equivalents
outstanding during each period.  Common stock equivalents recognize
the potential dilutive effects of the future exercise of common stock
options (Note 4).

     Use of Estimates
     ----------------

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

     Income Taxes
     ------------

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109").  SFAS 109 requires recognition of deferred
income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax
consequences based on enacted tax laws of temporary differences
between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and
liabilities.  In addition, SFAS 109 requires recognition of deferred
tax assets for the expected future effects of all deductible temporary
differences, loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. 
Deferred tax assets are then reduced, if deemed necessary, by a
valuation allowance for the amount of any tax benefits which, more
likely than not based on current circumstances, are not expected to be
realized (see Note 5).

     Cash and Cash Equivalents
     -------------------------

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers
highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.

(3)  LINE OF CREDIT AND LONG-TERM DEBT
     ---------------------------------

     Line of Credit
     --------------

At December 31, 1995, the Company had an outstanding balance of
$600,000 on its revolving line of credit which expires on June 1,
1996.  The line of credit bears interest at prime (prime at
December 31, 1995, was 8.5%).  Amounts which may be drawn on the line
of credit are limited to a maximum borrowing base, as defined, but may
not exceed $2,000,000.

As an incentive to accept employment, the Company offered a new
officer the right to purchase 10,000 shares of the Company's common
stock at market value and another 10,000 shares at par value.  For the
common stock purchased at par value, the Company recorded compensation
expense in the accompanying statement of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1994 equal to the difference between the common stock par
value and its fair market value.

During November 1994, the Company's stockholders approved the
Nonemployee Director Stock Option Plan.  There are 100,000 shares of
common stock authorized to be granted under the plan and all options
will be granted at 100% of the fair market value of the stock at the
date of grant.  As of December 31, 1995, 25,000 options to purchase
common stock at $2.88 per share and 10,000 options to purchase common
stock at $2.81 per share had been granted.  The options are
exercisable over a four-year vesting period.

At December 31, 1995, the Company has research and development,
investment tax credit, job credit and general business credit
carryforwards totaling approximately $69,000 which expire from 1996
through 2008.


                                 F-13<PAGE>
The Company had established a valuation allowance of $55,000 as of
December 31, 1994 for certain tax credit carryforwards which, based
upon circumstances known at that time, were not certain to be realized
due to their expiration dates of otherwise.  As of December 31, 1995,
the Company has eliminated the valuation allowance because the
uncertainties surrounding such credit carryforwards have been removed.

A reconciliation of the Company's income tax provision computed by
applying the federal statutory income tax rate of 34% to income before
taxes is as follows:

The board of directors approved loans to certain of the Company's
officers.  The loans bear interest at prime plus 3/4%, are payable
monthly and mature from June 1996 to April 1998.  The outstanding
balances at December 31, 1995 and 1994 are $36,823 and $44,273,
respectively.

(7)  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
     -----------------------------

The Company leases certain office space, storage space, vehicles and
other equipment under various operating lease agreements.  Future
minimum rental commitments under noncancelable operating leases are as
follows:

          Year ending December 31-
            1996                                         $182,185
            1997                                          106,638
            1998                                           30,454
            1999                                           15,203


Total rental expense included in operations was approximately $227,800
and $258,700 in the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.

In fiscal 1993, the Company received notice from a customer that
several contracts had been terminated for convenience of the customer. 
Federal procurement regulations obligated the customer to compensate
the Company for certain costs incurred through the termination date. 
During 1994, the Company reached a settlement with this customer which
caused a writedown on 

                                 F-14<PAGE>
abandonment of equipment of $182,270 and a net gain on settlement of
approximately $373,000 which are included in the Company's gross
margin for 1994.

In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to various
contractual disputes and claims.  After considering the Company's
insurance coverage and evaluations by legal counsel regarding pending
actions, management is of the opinion that the outcome of such actions
will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position of
the Company.

(8)  SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER

During the year ended December 31, 1994, one customer accounted for
approximately 14% of net sales.  No single customer accounted for more
