SIXTH MONTH ENDED JUNE 30th, 1997 AND 1996

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the sixth month ending June 30th, 1997 increased  $71,000 from
$2,929,284 in 1996 to $3,000,406.  Although the increase was not significant,
the company increased its customer base and diversified it's channels of
distribution.  Cost of sales decreased $78,000 or 4% from $1,962,538 to
$1,884,334. This was directly related to improving production and quality
control efficiencies.

Gross profit increased $149,000 or 15% from $966,746 to $1,116,072.  The
increase was attributed to the Company's higher profit margins in the newly
introduced retail laundry and garment care product line.

Net Income before Taxes increased $117,000 or 61% from $192,996 to $310,168.
Net Income after Taxes increased $51,000 or 41% from $124,000 to $175,000.
Earnings per share increased 45% from .09 in the first half, 1996 to .13 in the
first six months 1997.

Selling expenses increased $37,000 or 13% from $285,000 to $322,000.  This was
due to the increase in advertising and the company's increased attendance at
industry trade shows.  General and administrative expenses decreased $20,000 or
20% from $98,000 in 1996 to $78,000 in the same period in 1997. This is
attributed to a reduction in computer maintenance, negotiating favorable
insurance and utility rates.

Factor fees and Interest expense decreased $31,000 or 31% from $99,000 to
$68,000.    This was due to a one time factor charge that was charged to 1996.

                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash position as of June 30, 1997 is $119,967.  The Company is
presently negotiating  with several banks to secure more favorable financing
arrangements.

The Company's primary lender is The CIT Group/Commercial Services.  They provide
factor and asset-based financing for the Company. The Company has recently
improved its borrowing capabilities with The CIT Group.

Management believes that cash on hand and cash from future operations should be
sufficient to cover current operations; however, additional working capital may
be needed for future expansion.  There can be no assurance that they will be
able obtain such capital on terms satisfactory to the Company.



                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The Company is subject to litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of
business.  The Company is currently involved in a dispute with Glenneyre Capital
Corporation, Pominandres Financial Corporation  and HJS Financial Services, Inc.
("the Plaintiffs").   The lawsuit stems from a financial service agreement dated
July 24, 1995, between the plaintiff's and LBU, Inc.

As part of the financial service agreement stated above 300,000 shares of LBU,
Inc.'s restricted common stock were issued to the Plaintiffs in return for
services and the raising of capital. The restrictions on these shares in
addition to the actual services which LBU, Inc. claims were not performed by the
plaintiff's are disputed.  The shares were stopped by LBU, Inc. November 19,
1995 and subsequently 269,000 shares have been canceled by the stock registrant.

The Company believes the action it has taken in the cancellation of  269,000
shares of common stock  is appropriate.  The Company has since initiated a
counter-suit against the plaintiff's for breach of contract, fraud and other
causes of action. Management believes that the outcome of  both lawsuits will be
favorable.

At the present time there are no legal matters that will have a material adverse
affect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
