              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.   The information furnished in this report reflects all adjustments
     (consisting of only normal recurring 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 and six months ended
     August 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
     expected for the full year.

2.   Inventories

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

3.   Net Income 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 4,124,208 and 3,987,152 for the quarters
     ended August 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and 4,121,126 and 3,991,092
     for the six months ended August 31, 2000 and 1999, 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 4,260,723 and 4,139,531 for the quarters ended August 31, 2000
     and 1999, respectively, and 4,121,126 and 4,082,413 for the six months
     ended August 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

     Because of the net loss for the six months ended August 31, 2000, 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.   Treasury Stock Repurchase

     As of August 31, 2000, 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 August 31, 2000, the Company had working capital of $11,965,748
including $5,080,994 in cash, short-term investments and other cash equivalents.
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.

     For the six months ended August 31, 2000, cash flow increased by $121,092
and net cash flow from operations increased by $653,436. A net loss for the six
months ended August 31, 2000 decreased net cash flow from operating activities
by $169,262 compared to net income of 1,429,380 that increased net cash flow
from operating activities for the six months ended August 31, 1999. In the six
months ended August 31, 2000, the Company invested in inventory to support the
new hearing products resulting in a decrease of net cash flow of $714,334. The
collection of customer payments reduced the Company's accounts receivable
resulting in an increase of net cash flow of $1,365,605.

Results of Operations

     Net sales for the three and six month periods ended August 31, 2000 (the
"2000 three and six months") decreased to $5,864,022 and $11,183,399,
respectively, compared to $6,590,484 and $12,868,768 in the three and six month
periods ended August 31, 1999 (the "1999 three and six months.") Domestic sales
which represented 79% and 82% of net sales for the 2000 three and six months,
respectively, decreased by 25% and 19% to $4,623,998 and $9,190,580 for the 2000
three and six months, respectively, compared to $6,160,900 and $11,332,157 for
the 1999 three and six months, respectively. Foreign sales of $1,240,024 and
$1,992,819 contributed 21% and 18% of net sales for the 2000 three and six
months, respectively, an increase of 189% and 30% from $429,584 and $1,536,611
for the 1999 three and six months, respectively. The increase in foreign sales
in the 2000 three and six months was due to strong initial demand, especially
from Japan, of the Company's Audx, Abaer and Navigator Pro products. The
Company's domestic and overall decrease in net sales for the 2000 three and six
months was due to the delayed debut of new products for its line of hearing
screening devices for infants, and lower unit sales in the Ceegraph and Sleep
product lines caused, in part, by hospital purchasing managers delaying buying
decisions after many of their Y2K concerns were addressed last year as well as
increased competition.

     Cost of sales increased to $1,942,321 and decreased to $3,803,568 in the
2000 three and six months, respectively, compared to $1,917,890 and $3,914,814
for the 1999 three and six months, respectively. Cost of sales as a percentage
of net sales increased to 33% and 34% for the 2000 three and six months,
respectively, from 29% and 30% for the 1999 three and six months, respectively.
This increase in cost of sales as a percentage of net sales in the 2000 three
and six months was the result of unfavorable sales mix change, higher inventory
reserve and higher service costs.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 6% and 8% to
$3,077,389 and $6,030,750 during the 2000 three and six months, respectively,
compared to $2,892,790 and $5,561,174 for the 1999 three and six months,
respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
net sales, increased to 52% and 54% during the 2000 three and six months,
respectively, compared to 44% and 43%, respectively, for the 1999 three and six
months. The increases in the 2000 three and six months reflects the cost of
additional sales, customer support and executive personnel to better serve our
current and future customers, plus increases in travel and office service costs
offset by a decrease in sales commissions associated with lower net sales.

     Research and development costs increased by 6% and 14% to $883,585 and
$1,730,051 for the 2000 three and six months, respectively, from $829,942 and
$1,513,462 for the 1999 three and six months, respectively. As a percentage of
net sales, total research and development costs increased to approximately 15%
for both the 2000 three and six months, compared to 13% and 12% for the 1999
three and six months, respectively. The increase in research and development
costs for the 2000 three and six months was the result of higher individual
salaries and benefits plus increased development activity in Israel and Poland.

     The Company had operating losses of $39,273 and $380,970 for the 2000 three
and six months, respectively, compared to operating income of $949,862 and
$1,879,318 for the 1999 three and six months, respectively. The operating losses
for the 2000 three and six months were a result of lower net sales at decreased
gross margins combined with higher selling, general and administrative expenses
and research and development costs.

     Net interest income increased to $153,990 for the 2000 six months compared
to $107,382 for the 1999 six months. This increase reflects higher investment
returns on the Company's cash investments offset by higher interest expense.

     The Company had income tax expense of $7,175 and a income tax benefit of
$65,825 for the 2000 three and six months, respectively, compared to income tax
expense of $281,475 and $555,875 for the 1999 three and six months,
respectively. The Company's income tax rate differs from the federal statutory
rate of 34% due to the differences in foreign income and its corresponding tax
rates.

     The Company had net income of $18,413 and a net loss of $169,262 or $0.01
and $(0.04) per diluted share respectively, compared to net income of $723,750
and $1,429,380 or $0.17 and $0.35 per diluted share, for the 1999 three and six
months, respectively. The Company attributes the small earnings and the net loss
for 2000 three and six months to a combination of lower net sales particularly
in the Ceegraph and Sleep product lines, lower gross margins and higher selling,
general and administrative and research and development costs.
