NOTE 4: INCOME TAXES

     The Company adopted "Statement of Accounting  Standards No. 109, Accounting
For Income Taxes" (SFAS 109)  effective  April 1, 1994.  The statement  requires
that deferred  income taxes reflect the future tax  consequences  of differences
between the tax bases of assets and  liabilities  and their bases for  financial
reporting purposes. In addition, SFAS 109 requires the recognition of future tax
benefits,  such  as  net  operating  loss  carryforwards,  to  the  extent  that
realization of such benefits are more likely than not.

     The primary components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities
and the related valuation allowance are as follows:

     The Company continually reviews the adequacy of the valuation allowance and
recognizes a benefit from income taxes only when reassessment  indicates that it
is more likely than not that the benefits  will be realized.  In fiscal 1998 the
Company reduced the valuation  allowance  applied against the net operating loss
carryforwards,  based upon  reasonable  and prudent tax planning  strategies and
future income projections.

     At September 30, 1998, the Company had net operating loss  carryforwards of
$1,391,000  expiring  from 2001 to 2007.  In  addition,  unused  tax  credits of
$144,000 expire from 1999 to 2001 and are also being carried forward.

NOTE 6: ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

     The  Company  has  adopted  "Statement  of  Accounting  Standards  No. 130,
"Reporting  Comprehensive  Income" (SFAS 130), which  establishes  standards for
reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (i.e. revenues,
expenses, gains and losses) in a complete set of financial statements. All prior
periods have been restated to conform to the provisions of this statement.

NOTE 7: INVESTMENT IN FOREIGN COMPANY

     In August 1998 the Company advanced  $100,000 to Conforma,  n.v., a Belgian
company  engaged in the processing of  pharmaceutical  related  products.  It is
anticipated  that this advance will be  subsequently  converted into a long-term
equity  investment.  The advance was financed  with funds  generated by use of a
margin account with a financial services company

     The margined  securities  suffered declines in market value in concert with
the  general  stock  market  resulting  in margin  calls made on the  Company in
September  1998.  In order to meet these  obligations,  the Company  made a cash
payment of $22,000  and sold some of its  holdings.  The net  proceeds  from the
liquidations  of the  securities  were $47,420,  resulting in a realized loss of
$126,580,  which is included in other  expense.  As of September  30, 1998,  the
margin obligation has been reduced to approximately $31,000.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1998,  $2,665,374,  set a new
record for the Company,  eclipsing the record mark  established  in the previous
quarter.  Consequently,  year to date sales of  $5,297,829  is the highest level
recorded in any  six-month  period in the  Company's  history.  For  comparative
purposes, as recently as the fiscal year ended March 1995, sales for that entire
twelve-month period totaled $5.7 million. With regard to the prior year, current
quarter sales represent an increase of $465,164, or 21%, over the second quarter
of fiscal 1998.  For the six-month  period,  sales  increased by $882,956 or 20%
over the first two quarters of the prior year.

The large  increase in sales  continues  the trend begun  towards the end of the
last fiscal year. Several factors are prominently  intertwined resulting in this
growth  including  a  return  to  more  seasonal  temperature  patterns  and the
successful  introduction  of new  product  applications.  The  Company  has  now
completed  the design  and  qualification  phases  for a line of  coaxial  coils
serving the ice machine and commercial  refrigerator  market. These products are
generating  significant sales in fiscal 1999, compared to only a small amount of
start-up  shipments in the prior year. The Company has also increased  shipments
of coils for chiller-related  marine  applications in fiscal 1999,  representing
the  continuing  development  of a specialty  line begun in 1998.  Further,  the
Company is expanding  its  offerings in flexible  heat  transfer  tubing and has
experienced growth in this product line both in the U.S. and abroad.

The core  business of  supplying  coaxial  coils to OEM  water-source  heat pump
manufacturers  has  continued  to grow as a  result  of both  strong  levels  of
domestic  commercial and  residential  construction  and increased  market share
garnered by the Company's larger customers.  This market historically slows down
in  the  third  calendar  quarter  with  rebounding  volumes  occurring  in  the
January-March  period  anticipating  the  spring  building  season.  Indications
currently  suggest that through the third quarter (period ending 12/31/98) total
shipments should approach $7.5 million.

Cost of sales  aggregated  72% of net sales for both the quarter  and  six-month
periods of the current year as well as in fiscal 1998. As a large portion of the
cost of manufactured  product is concentrated in copper and copper alloy tubing,
the stability of the cost of these raw materials  helped  maintain gross margins
at this level. Cost increases for conversion costs,  including direct labor were
offset  by  increased  efficiencies  resulting  from  refinements  in the use of
cellular manufacturing processes on the production floor.

Selling,  general and administrative  expenses increased by $41,448 (9%) for the
three months and $62,055 (6%) for the six-month period and compared to the prior
year results.  Cost increases for personnel and related  benefits,  coupled with
additions to staffing of support services accounted for the higher levels in the
current year periods.  The Company is planning to further supplement these areas
during  the  balance  of the year,  to  support  product  line  additions  under
development and other applied engineering research activities.

Operating  income  increased by $82,282 and $181,045 for the three and six month
periods of 1999,  compared to the same periods of the prior year.  Higher levels
of sales for all  periods  generated  increases  in gross  margin  dollars  that
absorbed the additional investments in engineering and administrative areas.

Interest expense was slightly higher for the current year periods as a result of
carrying  increased  levels of operating assets compared to fiscal 1998. For all
periods  presented,  interest  costs ranged  between  3-4% of net sales.  Higher
average  levels of  outstanding  debt in 1999 were  offset by a lower  effective
borrowing rate, resulting from a reduction in the prime interest rate during the
year.

In September 1998 the Company  liquidated  certain  marketable equity securities
that were  subject to a margin  agreement  with a  financial  services  company.
Consequently,  a loss of $126,580 was charged to  operations  during the current
quarter,  representing the difference  between the proceeds of the sales and the
cost basis of the securities.

Other  comprehensive  income  (loss)  adjustments  for  the  periods  represents
unrealized holding gains (losses) for marketable equity securities that are held
by the Company as long-term investments.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Working capital at September 30, 1998 was $521,277 compared to $443,505 at March
31,  1998 and  $266,093  at  September  30,  1997.  During the current six month
period,  current  assets  increased  by  $611,580,  largely due to  increases in
accounts  receivable and inventories needed to support higher production levels.
Concurrently,  current liabilities increased by $533,808 consisting primarily of
additional  borrowings  under the revolving line of credit.  These advances were
used to finance  the  additional  investments  in  operating  assets and capital
expenditures during the quarter.

As a result of the  increases  in  current  assets,  net cash used in  operating
activities  totaled  $241,965  for  the  current  period  compared  to net  cash
generated of $71,883 in 1997.  Inventories and accounts receivable  increased by
$368,084 and $204,371,  respectively, for the current six months, reflecting the
substantial increase in shipments over the prior year. Net income from operating
activities  totaled  $295,220  in 1999,  an increase of more than 120% above the
September 1997 level of $133,093.  Cash  generated  from  operations was used to
fund a portion of the  increase in current  assets,  with the  balance  financed
through the revolving debt facility.

Cash used in  investing  activities  increased  from  $169,610 in fiscal 1997 to
$247,827 for the six months  ended  September  1998.  In August 1998 the Company
advanced $100,000 to Conforma, n.v., a Belgian company engaged in the processing
of  pharmaceutical  related  products.  The  advance  was  financed  with  funds
generated by use of a margin  account  with a financial  services  company.  The
margined  securities  suffered  declines  in market  value in  concert  with the
general  stock market  decline  resulting in margin calls made on the Company in
September  1998. To meet these  obligations,  the Company made a cash payment of
$22,000  and  sold  a  portion  of its  holdings.  The  net  proceeds  from  the
liquidations  of the security  were  $47,420,  resulting  in a realized  loss of
$126,580,  which was recorded as a period expense. As of September 30, 1998, the
margin obligation has been reduced to approximately $31,000.

Capital  expenditures  increased  by $52,088  compared to the prior year period.
Anticipated  purchases  of  production  equipment  are  expected to run slightly
higher than the prior year due to the need to add production capacity to support
higher sales and shipping levels.

Cash  provided by  financing  activities  totaled  $490,471  for the current six
months  compared to $97,714 in the prior year.  The revolving  debt facility was
used to finance additions to inventories,  accounts receivable, capital projects
and other equipment  purchases during the quarter. In October 1998 the Company's
bank  increased the maximum  borrowings  available  under the revolving  line of
credit and also authorized a new facility to finance capital  expenditures.  The
revised debt structure is expected to provide  sufficient  resources to fund the
Company's requirements for the foreseeable future.

Inflation  and  other  cost  increases  continue  to  play a  minor  role in the
Company's day to day  operations.  Improvements to  manufacturing  processes and
procedures,  coupled with small  increases in purchased  goods and services have
enabled the Company to maintain  its current  cost  structure.  Stability in the
precious metals markets has also enabled the Company to continue to purchase raw
materials  at  competitive  prices  for  conversion  into  products  shipped  to
customers.  As the Company  continues its conversion to cellular  manufacturing,
further cost  reductions are  anticipated  which should offset future effects of
inflation for the balance of the fiscal year.
