              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
                                (000's omitted)

                                  May 31, 1996
                                  ------------

1.   In the opinion of management, the foregoing unaudited condensed
     consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments
     necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of May
     31, 1996.

2.   The results for the three month periods ended May 31, 1996 and 1995, are
     not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal
     year.

3.   Primary earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net earnings
     applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common stock
     outstanding and common stock equivalents, which consist of stock options
     and stock warrants.  On a fully-diluted basis, net earnings, weighted
     average shares outstanding and common stock equivalents are adjusted to
     assume the conversion of preferred stock from the date of issue.  For the
     three month period ended May 31, 1996, primary and fully-diluted earnings
     per common share do not include common stock equivalents because they are
     anti-dilutive.

4.   The Company utilizes an asset and liability approach in accounting for
     income taxes that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and
     liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have
     been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns.  In
     estimating future tax consequences, consideration is given to all expected
     future events other than enactments of changes in the tax law or rates.

     The valuation allowance of $776 at February 29, 1996, which represents 30%
     of the gross deferred tax assets on that date, was $789, or 30% on May 31,
     1996. This increase of the valuation allowance increased income tax expense
     by $13. The tax provision for the three months ended May 31, 1996, includes
     a current and deferred tax benefit of $4 and $39, respectively..

5.   The Company has entered into an agreement for the sale of the Marietta,
     Georgia, Company Plant which is currently held by BCT Enterprises of
     Georgia, Inc.  Under the terms of the definitive agreement signed on July
     8, 1996, the buyers will assume responsibility for the operation of the
     Plant beginning in late August 1996.  The net loss of the Company for the
     three month period ended May 31, 1996 includes approximately $113 in losses
     incurred at the Marietta, Georgia, Company Plant.

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

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
 
Total revenues increased $777,000, or 20%, for the first quarter ended May 31,
1996, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year.  The
increase in revenue is attributable primarily to increases in (i) royalty
revenue ($97,000, or 8%); (ii) paper sales ($392,000 or 19%); and (iii) Company
Plant revenues ($407,000 or 125%), which are partially offset by a decrease in
franchise sales ($109,000 or 100%).

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenues was 51%  for the first quarter
ended May 31, 1996, as compared to 52% for the corresponding period in fiscal
1996.  Although the percentage generally remains stable, it does fluctuate due
to periodic changes in the revenue mix.

Selling and administrative expenses represented 52% of gross revenues for the
first quarter ended May 31, 1996,  and 37% for the corresponding period in
fiscal 1996.  The primary causes of the increase in selling and administrative
expenses as a percentage of revenues were (i) the increased operating expenses
associated with the Company Plants (a $463,000 or 155% increase over the prior
year's level); (ii) increased provision for doubtful accounts (a $109,000 or
183% increase over the prior year); and (iii) professional fees (a $44,000 or
54% increase over the prior year).

The increased revenues and expenses from Company Plants resulted from the
Company's 100% involvement in the operation of 4 Company Plants and a 70%
involvement in a fifth Company Plant during the first quarter of fiscal 1997
while only two Company Plants were operated by the Company during the first
quarter of fiscal 1996.  The Company Plants yielded losses of $232,000 for the
first quarter ended May 31, 1996 versus $78,000 during the first quarter of
fiscal 1996.  First quarter losses generated by the Riverside, California;
Newbury Park, California; and Marietta, Georgia, Company Plants, which are
Company Plants classified as held for sale, amounted to $196,000.  The Marietta,
Georgia, Company Plant is currently under agreement to be sold effective late
August 1996.  The Company is actively marketing the Riverside, California and
Newbury Park, California, Company Plants.

The Company incurred a net loss of $91,000 for the three months ended May 31,
1996, as compared to a net income of $304,000 for the corresponding period in
fiscal 1996.  The fiscal 1997 first quarter net loss reflects an operating loss
of $121,000 and a $30,000 income tax benefit.

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

In December 1994, the Company, through the forced exercise of its Series B
preferred stock warrants, received a net capital infusion of $1,938,000. Through
May 31, 1996, $1,038,000 of these proceeds have been utilized in efforts to
increase revenues. The remainder of the proceeds are being invested in cash
equivalents.

During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company utilized working capital as
well as investment income to make debt payments totaling $23,000.

During the quarter ended May 31, 1996, the Company made capital expenditures of
approximately $115,000, most of which were dedicated to office equipment,
computer software, hardware and furniture and fixtures.

The Company plans to improve its working capital and cash positions during
fiscal 1997 by focusing its efforts on (i) reducing losses generated by the
Company Plants through the sale of certain Plants and improved management of
others, (ii); increasing cash collections; and (iii) developing new product
lines while containing capital expenditures and keeping inventories at their
current levels.
 
The Company believes that current reserves and internally generated funds will
be sufficient to satisfy the Company's working capital and capital expenditure
requirements for the foreseeable future; however, there can be no assurance that
external financing will not be needed or that, if needed, it will be available
on commercially reasonable terms.
