                         Notes to Condensed Consolidated
                              Financial Statements


Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation


       Material Changes in Financial Condition. Accounts receivable decrease
resulted from lower sales in the second quarter of 2000 versus the fourth
quarter of 1999. Note receivable resulted from the sale of the Prab Robot
product line, refer to note 6. Inventory increase resulted from a combination of
additional work in process and stock inventory.

       Accounts and note payable increase resulted primarily from an increase in
accounts payable partially due to the increased inventory purchased.

       The Company repurchased all of its outstanding convertible preferred
stock from the State of Michigan Retirement Systems on December 28, 1999 for a
price of $1.63 per share plus accrued dividends of $3,544. This transaction
eliminated the convertible stock and reduced additional paid in capital by
$322,667, the premium paid above book value.


       Material Changes in Results of Operations. Sales in the first six months
of 2000 were 8% higher than the first six months of 1999. Higher sales are the
result of increased

                                  Page 2 of 14

<PAGE>   3


order activity in the first six months of 2000 versus a year ago in both the
Prab Conveyor and Hapman Conveyor product lines. New business order bookings
have increased 14% in the first six months of 2000 compared to the same period a
year ago.

       Costs of products sold were 63% in the first six months of 2000 and 1999.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were 35% in the first six months of
2000 and the same period a year ago. The increase in expenses primarily results
from the addition of new employees in sales and marketing.

       Lower interest expense resulted from low levels of debt until December
28, 1999 when $601,000 was drawn on the line of credit to repurchase the
convertible preferred stock.

       Litigation settlement resulted from the Company's disposal of waste at a
local landfill, refer to note 7.

       The order backlog of $3,055,000 at the end of the second quarter ended
April 30, 2000 compares with $2,820,000 at the end of the previous quarter ended
January 31, 2000 and $3,672,000 at the end of the second quarter a year ago.

6.       SALE OF PRAB ROBOT PRODUCT LINE:

         During March 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the
remaining Prab Robot product line assets, including inventory, test equipment,
engineering drawings, job files, vendor information, customer lists, sales
history, sales aids, and five-year convenant not to compete for $5,000 cash, and
a non-interest bearing note of $15,000. The note receivable is payable in two
payments, $5,000 before June 30, 2000, and the balance due no later than March
31, 2001. The book value of the assets sold totaled approximately $0 due to
offsetting inventory reserves for lifo, obsolescence, and slow moving items.

7.       LITIGATION SETTLEMENT:

         The Company has been involved in a legal action arising out of its
disposal of waste at a local landfill. During April 2000, the Company settled
this matter for a total of $25,000, which will be paid in May 2000.
