             Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements



1. The information furnished in this report reflects all adjustments which are,
   in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results
   for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three months ended
   May 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
   the full year.


2. Inventories

   Inventories consist principally of components, parts and supplies and are
   stated at the lower of cost. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out
   method or market.

3. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

   Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares
   outstanding during each quarter. The weighted average shares for computing
   basic earnings per share were 3,995,036 and 3,988,592 for the quarters ended
   May 31, 1999 and May 31, 1998, respectively.

   Diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common
   and dilutive common equivalent shares calculated at average market prices.
   The weighted average shares for computing diluted earnings per share were
   4,025,180 and 3,988,592 for the quarters ended May 31, 1999 and May 31, 1998,
   respectively.

   Because of the net loss for the quarter ended May 31, 1998, common equivalent
   shares were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as
   their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

4. Accounting for Income Taxes

   Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences
   between financial statement basis and tax basis of assets, liabilities and
   available general business tax credit carry-forwards. A valuation allowance
   is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount
   expected to be realized.

5. Earnings per Share Presentation

    Earnings per Share - The Company has adopted Statement of Financial
    Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per Share," as of February
    28, 1998. This statement established new standards for computing and
    disclosing earnings per share. In accordance with SFAS No. 128, all earnings
    per share amounts for prior periods have been restated to conform with the
    new standard.

6. Treasury Stock Repurchase

   As of May 31, 1999, the Company purchased an aggregate of 47,800 shares of
   its' common stock at a total cost of $131,980.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

   Prospective investors are cautioned that the statements in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-QSB that are not descriptions of historical facts may be
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Reform
Act of 1995, including statements concerning the Company's future products,
results of operations and prospects. These forward-looking statements are
subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from
those currently anticipated, including those relating to general economic and
business conditions, the results of research and development efforts,
technological changes and competition, potential changes in regulation by the
FDA, costs relating to manufacturing of products and the timing of customer
orders detailed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB and from time
to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

   As of May 31, 1999, the Company had working capital of $11,277,382 including
$5,900,183 in cash and cash equivalents and $4,028,804 of accounts receivable.
The principal sources of working capital are funds generated from operations.
The Company believes its capital and liquidity requirements for the foreseeable
future will be satisfied by available and internally generated funds. To the
extent the Company's capital and liquidity requirements are not satisfied
internally, the Company may utilize a $1,000,000 unsecured bank line of credit,
all of which is currently available. Borrowings under this line will bear
interest at the bank's prime rate.

   The decrease in cash flow for the three months ended May 31, 1999 was $56,929
and net cash flow provided by operations was $76,476. Net income for the quarter
ended May 31, 1999 was $705,629 increasing cash flow from operations while in
contrast, a net loss of $217,963 in the quarter ended May 31, 1998 decreased
cash flow from operations. In the first quarter ended May 31, 1999, cash flow
was used to fund increases in accounts receivable and inventories of $698,313
and $359,036, respectively, due to higher net sales.


Results of Operations

   Net sales for the three month period ended May 31, 1999 (the "1999 three
months") increased by approximately 69% to $6,278,284 from $3,707,314 in the
three month period ended May 31, 1998 (the "1998 three months"). Domestic sales
for the 1999 three months increased by 64% to $5,171,257 compared to $3,152,554
for the 1998 three months representing 82% of net sales while foreign sales
increased approximately 100% to $1,107,027 for the 1999 three months from
$554,760 during the 1998 three months. The strong increase in domestic sales was
the result of across the board increases in our neurology, audiology and sleep
product lines. In particular, the demand for our new higher quality, digital,
64/128-channel epilepsy monitoring system, Ceegraph XL, has increased demand for
all our products while maintaining our overall product margins. The 100%
increase in the Company's foreign sales for the 1999 three months was partially
the result of two large orders from the Far East that were booked in the fourth
quarter of last year and shipped in the first quarter of this year. The Company
is encouraged by these two shipments, but is cautious about a rebound in foreign
sales and is unsure if this buying activity is a start of trend or simply an
isolated action.

   Cost of equipment sold increased to $1,996,924 during the 1999 three months
compared to $1,227,154 for the 1998 three months, but as a percentage of net
sales declined to 32% for the 1999 three months compared to 33% for the 1998
three months. This decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was
partially the result of higher gross profit on some of our new Windows-based
platforms, in particular, our new 64/128 channel epilepsy monitoring system, the
Ceegraph XL.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 26% to $2,668,385
for the 1999 three months compared to $2,114,661 for the 1998 three months. This
increase in selling, general and selling expenses for the 1999 three months
reflect increased sales expenses such as overall salaries, commissions, training
and freight expenses. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and
administrative expenses declined to 43% in 1999 three months compared to 57% in
the 1998 three months.

   Research and development costs declined by 9% to $683,520 or 11% of net sales
in the 1999 three months, compared to $747,203 or 20% of net sales in the 1998
three months. The decrease in research and development costs in the 1999 first
quarter was caused by the absence of a one time outside development expense of
approximately $81,000 experienced in the 1998 first quarter offset by a slight
increase in overall employee compensation and outside software services.

   For the three months ended May 31, 1999, the Company had an operating profit
of $929,455 compared to a operating loss of $381,704 for the three months ended
May 31, 1998. This increase in operating income for the 1999 three months is
mainly due to higher gross profit offset by higher selling, general and
administrative expenses.

   Net interest income decreased to $51,103 from $55,302 for the three month
periods ended May 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. This slight decrease reflects
lower returns on the money market accounts offset by lower interest expense on
long term debt.

   The provision for income taxes of $274,400 was 28% of income before income
taxes during the 1999 three months compared to a income tax benefit of $109,300
or approximately 33% of net loss before taxes during the 1998 three months. The
Company's income tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 35% due to
differences in foreign income and its corresponding tax rates.

   The Company had net income of $705,629 or $.18 per basic and diluted share
for the 1999 three months, compared to a net loss of $217,963 or $0.05 per basic
and diluted share for the 1998 three months. The Company attributes the gain in
the 1999 three month period to higher net sales worldwide offset by increases in
selling, general and administrative expenses as previously discussed.


Year 2000 Issue

   The Year 2000 issue (i.e., the ability of computer systems to accurately
identify and process dates beginning with Year 2000 and beyond) affects
virtually all companies and organizations. The Company recognizes that
information systems are integral to its operations. As all of the Company's
software is either developed internally or acquired from third party vendors to
be included in the Company's product line for subsequent sale, the Company's
efforts to limit problems associated with Year 2000 software failures are
focused on investigating, testing and ensuring that all such software is Year
2000 compliant. As a result of these efforts, the Company believes that the Year
2000 issue will not pose significant internal problems for the Company's
business. The Company is also communicating with its suppliers, financial
institutions and third-party payors to determine their plans to limit problems
associated with the Year 2000 issue problems. The Company does not anticipate
that there will be a material cost associated with addressing its potential
exposure to Year 2000 problems. Despite these efforts, the Year 2000 issue is
complex and may present unforeseen problems in the Company's systems and from
third parties with which the Company deals, such as third-party vendors and
payors. Failure of the Company's or third parties' computer systems could
materially and adversely impact the Company's operations.
