NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY 25, 1997
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
---------------------
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results
for the three and six month periods ended January 25, 1997 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the year ending July 26, 1997. For further information,
refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included
in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
July 27, 1996.
2. CORPORATE FINANCING
-------------------
In October 1996, the Company completed a private placement
(the "Placement") of 12 units (the "Units") at a price of $75,000
per Unit or an aggregate Placement of $900,000. Each Unit
consisted of a $60,000 principal amount 14% Convertible
Subordinated Debenture due October 31, 1999 (the "Debentures")
and 4,000 shares of Common Stock, or an aggregate of $720,000
principal amount of Debentures and 48,000 shares of Common Stock.
The Debentures are convertible into Common Stock at $3.75
per share upon or after the Debentures are called for redemption
or the effectiveness of a registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), covering the
underlying shares of Common Stock, subject to customary anti-
dilution provisions. The Company may call all or part of the
Debentures at par, plus accrued interest, at any time after
October 31, 1997. The Debentures contain various covenants upon
the Company, including a restriction on the payment of cash
dividends on its Common Stock.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Placement, the
Company received a Term Loan from its bank. The bank had
conditioned the closing of the Term Loan on the Company receiving
at least $700,000 from the issuance of subordinated debentures
and/or capital stock. The Term Loan is repayable over five
years, bears annual interest at prime plus 1/2%, and is
guaranteed by the New Hampshire Business Finance Authority. The
bank also increased the Company's revolving line of credit to
$400,000 from $300,000. As of January 25, 1997 there was
$300,000 outstanding under this revolving line of credit. The
Term Loan and the credit line are secured by a lien on the
Company's assets.
The net proceeds of the Placement and the Term Loan of
approximately $1,200,000 will be used for general working capital
purposes, including possible acquisitions and marketing.
3. REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
-------------------
At the Company's annual meeting of stockholders on October
8, 1996, stockholders authorized the Board of Directors to effect
a reverse stock split at a ratio to be determined by the Board
and when the Board determined it was in the best interest of the
Company and the stockholders. In November 1996, the Company
announced that its Board of Directors had approved a 1-for-5
reverse stock split, to be effective November 8, 1996. The
reverse split reduced the number of shares outstanding to
2,506,266. All prior periods presented have been adjusted to
reflect the above reverse stock split.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF
OPERATION
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Net sales for the three and six month periods ended January 25,
1997 were $523,000 and $1,063,000, respectively, compared to
$843,000 and $1,507,000 for the three and six month periods ended
January 27, 1996. The decrease in sales was attributable to a
substantial decline in sales in Germany, which had constituted
the Company's major international market, intially because of
temporary regulatory delays which have become less of a factor in
the second quarter, and subsequently because of changes in the
reimbursement policy for the Company's products in Germany.
Cost of sales for the three and six months ended January 25, 1997
were 53.9% and 55.9% of net sales compared to 50.8% and 54.3% of
net sales during the same periods in the prior year. The
increase in cost as a percentage of sales can be attributed to the
product mix and unfavorable overhead variances as a result of
decreased manufacturing levels in response to the general
industry-wide slowdown.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and
six month periods ended January 25, 1997 were $374,000 and
$689,000, respectively, compared to $256,000 and 449,000 for the
comparable prior year periods. The increase reflects increased
sales and promotional activity, corporate development, regulatory
and communications expense.
Net loss for the three and six month periods ended January 25,
1997 were $234,000, or $.09 per share, and $394,000, or $.16 per
share, respectively, compared to net income of $202,000, or $.08
per share, and $224,000, or $.09 per share, for the same periods
last year. The decrease in net income is the result of decreased
sales along with increases in expenditures for marketing efforts
to promote and position the Company's new products, and the
Company's corporate development, regulatory and communications
efforts.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
Working capital of the Company at January 25, 1997 was
$1,517,000, compared to $906,000 at fiscal year ended July 27,
1996. The increase of $611,000 was primarily the result of net
proceeds of the Company's private placement and Term Loan from
its bank of approximately $1,200,000 offset by results of
operations.
Currently, the Company expects that available cash and its
existing bank line of credit will be sufficient to meet its
normal operating requirements, including research and development
expenditures, over the near term.
The Company is considering future growth through acquisitions of
companies or business segments in related lines of business or
other lines of business, as well as through expansion of the
existing line of business. There is no assurance that management
will find suitable acquisition candidates or effect the financial
arrangements which may be necessary for such acquisitions.
