             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                    CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

In 1996 and 1997, major product development efforts resulted in new "Windows
95" (TM) based vision systems which accounted for approximately 86% of the
total sales generated in the nine months ending September 30, 1999. In 1998,
product development commenced on "Windows NT" (TM) operating systems with the
first delivery of a system in the fourth quarter of 1998. This development is
continuing in 1999 as ORS Automation, Inc. ("ORS") continues to apply the most
current available technology to our product base. A development program to
upgrade our machine control systems and software to a 32 bit Object Module
structure has been undertaken and completion was anticipated in this quarter.
However, due to ORS focusing more of its resources on marketing efforts, the
completion of this program is anticipated not to occur until the first or
second quarter of 2000. The effort to broaden our product base resulted in
sales of our machine controls systems and software comprising approximately
12% of the sales in the first nine months of 1999. ("Windows 95" and "Windows
NT" are trademarks of the Microsoft Corporation)

Although our current products do not require date information for operation,
they have passed the American Megatrends Incorporated Year 2000 Diagnostic
Utility test (AMI2000 Version 3.0). No Year 2000 compliant problems are
foreseen at this time.

                           RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
           FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999
       COMPARED TO THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998

Sales for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 1999
increased 53.8% and 8.4% to $381,153 and $990,377, respectively, as compared
to $247,870 and $913,267, respectively, for the comparable periods in 1998.
This increase in sales revenue was due to the increase in demand for machine
vision assemblies from the Company's principal  customer who is introducing a
new product line of machines utilizing these assemblies.

The gross profit percentage increased to 37.8% for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1999 as compared to 36.5% for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1998. The gross profit percentage for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 increased to 37.3% as compared to 28.6% for the three
months ended September 30, 1998.

The Company's administrative, marketing and general expenses increased by 21%
to $81,888 from $67,654 and to $257,145 from $213,041, respectively, for the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1999. This increase was
primarily due to the addition of new personnel in engineering development and
marketing as sales revenues increased.

The income from operations for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 1999 was $60,400 and $117,071, respectively, as compared with
income of $3,198 and 119,881, respectively, for the three and nine month
periods ended September 30, 1998.

The Company had interest income of $1,739 and $4,949, respectively, for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to interest income
of $5,433 and $11,389 for the comparable periods in 1998. This decrease in
interest income was a result of ORS using $236,000 from interest bearing
accounts to settle Internal Revenue Service tax obligations.

The Company had net income of $54,356 and $98,223, respectively, for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to net loss  of $3,233
and net income of $98,020, respectively, for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1998. ORS' tax loss carryforward for the State of New Jersey
expired in 1998 resulting in a $9,000 state tax obligation for the first nine
months of 1999, which further reduced net income to $89,223, or $0.00 per
share, for the nine month period ended September 30, 1999 as compared to net
income of $98,020, or $0.00 per share, for the comparable period in 1998. Net
income after provision for taxes for the three months ended September 30, 1999
was $49,856 as compared to net loss of $3,233 for the comparable three month
period in 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

ORS has limited funds to meet its working capital requirements. In the event
that operations do not generate funds sufficient to cover cash expenditures,
the Company will need to obtain capital from other sources, such as financial
institutions or investors. To date we have been unable to obtain any bank
financing and there is no assurance that if financing is required, it will be
available to the Company.

On February 1, 1999, the Internal Revenue Service accepted ORS' Offer in
Compromise relating to priority tax claims that were set forth in ORS' Plan of
Reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code dated
April 18, 1991 ("Reorganization Plan"). On February 10, 1999, ORS paid
$236,000 to the Internal Revenue Service to settle its priority tax claims
including all interest and penalty considerations.

Net cash used in operating activities was $257,060 for the first nine months
of 1999 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $32,991
for the comparable period in 1998. The increase in net cash used in 1999 was
primarily due to the payment of $236,000 to the Internal Revenue Service as
described above, an increase in inventory of $46,316 and an increase in
accounts receivable of $115,274, less the net income from operations as
adjusted for depreciation and amortization of $96,485. The net cash used in
operating activities of $257,060 and the $3,613 used for equipment purchases
and the $81,434 proceeds resulting from converting short-term investments into
cash resulted in a cash balance of $217,360 at September 30, 1999.
