ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In the  registrant's  Form 10-Q for the  quarter  ended  March  31,  1996 it was
stated:

         In April, 1991, a claim was served on the Canadian subsidiary,  General
         Magnaplate Canada, Ltd., by Dynasurf  International,  Inc. for $170,000
         representing the unpaid contract  liability for the net assets acquired
         by the Canadian subsidiary from the sellers, Carrigan Industries,  Ltd.
         and Dynasurf International, Inc. on January 2, 1990. The Subsidiary has
         filed a counterclaim for  environmental  and other costs which resulted
         from the seller not resolving certain environmental issues warranted in
         the  contract  of  purchase.   Further,   a  shareholder   of  Dynasurf
         International,  Inc. has also filed a claim for breach of oral contract
         of employment of $119,000 which the Company has denied in their related
         statement of defense.

         The company  reached an out of court  agreement  with the plaintiffs on
         September 9, 1996 wherein the  plaintiffs  were paid the sum of $65,000
         U.S. dollars in full settlement of their claim. Such settlement did not
         have an adverse effect on the Company's financial statements.

                           ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT

To The Board of Directors of
  General Magnaplate Corporation:

         We have reviewed the accompanying  balance sheet of General  Magnaplate
Corporation  and  Wholly-Owned  Subsidiaries  as of  September  30, 1996 and the
related  consolidated  statement  of  stockholders'  equity for the three months
ended September 30, 1996 and the related  consolidated  statements of income and
cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, in accordance
with  Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review  Services  issued by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  All information included in
these  financial  statements  is the  representation  of  management  of General
Magnaplate Corporation.

         A review  consists  principally  of inquiries of Company  personnel and
analytical  procedures  applied to financial data. It is  substantially  less in
scope than an audit in accordance with generally  accepted  auditing  standards,
the  objective of which is the  expression  of opinion  regarding  the financial
statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly,  we do not express such an opinion on
the September 30, 1996 and 1995 statements.

         Based on our  review,  we are not aware of any  material  modifications
that should be made to the accompanying  financial  statements in order for them
to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

         Our review was made for the  purpose of  expressing  limited  assurance
that there are no material  modifications  that should be made to the  financial
statements  in  order  for  them to be in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting principles.  The supplementary information for the three months ended
September  30,  1996  and  1995  included  in  the  accompanying   supplementary
information is presented for supplementary  analysis purposes.  Such information
has been  subjected  to the inquiry  and  analytical  procedures  applied in the
review of the basic financial  statements,  and we are not aware of any material
modifications that should be made thereto.

         The  balance  sheet for the year ended June 30, 1996 was audited by us,
and we  expressed  an  unqualified  opinion on it in our report  dated August 9,
1996. We have not  performed any auditing  procedures on the balance sheet since
August 9, 1996.

                                                /s/Mauriello, Franklin & LoBrace

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

                  The consolidated  financial statements include the accounts of
         General  Magnaplate  Corporation  and  its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries;
         accordingly  all  intercompany  transactions  and  balances  have  been
         eliminated in consolidation.

         NATURE OF BUSINESS

                  The  Company  is  in  one  line  of   business.   It  provides
         synergistic  coatings  and other  related  services  to its  customers'
         products from five plants located in the United States and Canada.

         MARKETABLE SECURITIES

                  All marketable  securities are considered  trading  securities
         and are valued at fair market  value in  accordance  with SFAS No. 115.
         Realized and unrealized gains and losses are reported in current period
         income.
         Market value exceeded cost by $12,022 at September 30, 1996.

         INVENTORIES

                  Inventories  consist  principally  of industrial  supplies and
         plating  solutions which are valued at the lower of FIFO cost or market
         and are included in Cost of Sales.

         DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

                  Property,   plant  and   equipment  are  stated  at  cost  and
         depreciation  is provided  principally  on a straight  line basis using
         estimated service lives of 3-5 years for transportation equipment, 5-10
         years for factory machinery and office  equipment,  and 10-39 years for
         buildings  and  building  improvements.  Expenditures  for renewals and
         betterments are capitalized.  Items of identifiable  property which are
         sold,  retired,  or  otherwise  disposed of are removed  from the asset
         accounts, and any gains or losses thereon are reflected in income.

                  Patents and  trademarks are amortized on a straight line basis
         over periods not exceeding 17 years.

NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

         CORPORATE INCOME TAXES

                  Taxes are  provided  based on income  reported  for  financial
         statement  purposes,  including  deferred  taxes which are  principally
         provided  due  to  temporary  differences  between  financial  and  tax
         reporting of certain revenue and expense items.

         COMPANY EARNINGS PER SHARE

                  Earnings per share of common stock have been computed based on
         the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

         STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS

                  For  purposes  of the  statement  of cash  flows,  the Company
         considers all highly liquid debt instruments  purchased with a maturity
         of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

         FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION ADJUSTMENT

                  Assets and  liabilities of the subsidiary  operating in Canada
         are translated  into U.S.  dollars using the exchange rate in effect at
         the balance sheet date.  Results of operations are translated using the
         average exchange rate prevailing  throughout the period. The effects of
         exchange rate  fluctuations on translating  foreign currency assets and
         liabilities  into U.S.  dollars  are  included  as part of the  Foreign
         Currency  Translation  Adjustment  component of  shareholders'  equity,
         while gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are
         generally included in income.

         USE OF ESTIMATES

                  The  preparation  of financial  statements in conformity  with
         generally accepted  accounting  principles  requires management to make
         estimates and  assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets
         and liabilities and disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at
         the date of financial  statements and the reported  amounts of revenues
         and expenses during the reporting  period.  Actual results could differ
         from those estimates.

of operating loss  carryforwards of approximately U.S. $168,000 to reduce future
Canadian  taxable  income.  These  carryforwards  principally  expire in 1999. A
deferred tax asset has been provided subject to a 100% valuation allowance since
it is not likely that the loss  carryforwards  will be  utilized  prior to their
expiration.

NOTE 6--EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

         The Company  maintains a 401(k) savings plan which covers all full time
U.S.   employees.   The  Company  matches  50%  of  voluntary  pre-tax  employee
participant  contributions  up  to 4%  of  compensation  as  well  as  providing
discretionary  contributions  based on compensation for all employees.  Employer
discretionary  contributions,  which are forfeited  due to employee  termination
prior to the full seven year vesting period,  revert back to the Company.  Total
expense under the plan was $14,278 in 1996 and $14,254 in 1995.

         Pursuant to employment  contracts and letter  agreements  with officers
and key employees,  the Company maintains  non-qualified  incentive compensation
plans which are based on the  realization of pre-tax income and royalty  income.
Total expense under these plans was $105,954 in 1996 and $106,775 in 1995.

         The Company is obligated to provide a non-qualified  retirement pension
to its chief executive  officer.  Such obligation  provides a monthly benefit of
$7,100 and is payable for a period of fifteen  years to the  officer,  or to his
wife in the event of his death.  The Company is accruing the obligation over the
active term of  employment  of the  officer.  The Company is also  accruing  and
funding deferred compensation  contracts with two other officers based on 10% of
annual compensation.  Total expense under these three obligations was $37,671 in
1996 and $27,000 in 1995.

NOTE 7--CONTINGENCIES AND RISKS

         LITIGATION

                  In April, 1991, a claim was served on the Canadian subsidiary,
         General Magnaplate Canada,  Ltd., by Dynasurf  International,  Inc. for
         $170,000  representing the unpaid contract liability for the net assets
         acquired  by  the  Canadian  subsidiary  from  the  sellers,   Carrigan
         Industries, Ltd. and Dynasurf International, Inc. on January 2, 1990.

                  The Subsidiary has filed a counterclaim for  environmental and
         other  costs  incurred  which  resulted  from the seller not  resolving
         certain  environmental  issues  warranted  in the contract of purchase.
         Further, a shareholder of Dynasurf International, Inc. has also filed a
         claim for breach of oral contract of employment  for $119,000 which the
         Company has denied in their related statement of defense.

                  The  Company  reached  an  out of  court  agreement  with  the
         plaintiffs in September,  1996 wherein the plaintiffs were collectively
         paid  the sum of  $65,000  in full  settlement  of  their  claim.  Such
         settlement  did not have an adverse  effect on the Company's  financial
         statements.

         CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

                  The  Company's  financial  instruments  that  are  exposed  to
         concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of its cash, marketable
         securities and trade receivables.

                  The  Company's   cash  and   marketable   securities   are  in
         high-quality  securities  placed with a wide array of institutions with
         high credit and investment  ratings.  This investment policy limits the
         Company's exposure to concentrations of credit risk.

                  The  trade  receivable  balances,   reflecting  the  Company's
         diversified  sources of revenue,  are dispersed  across many  different
         geographic  areas. As a consequence,  concentrations of credit risk are
         limited.  The Company routinely  assesses the financial strength of its
         customers  and  generally  does not require  collateral  to support its
         credit sales.

Item 2A - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position:
Financial Condition
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Three-Months ended September 1996

     Cash and cash equivalents increased to $998,647 at September 30, 1996, with
net cash  increasing  $318,077  from the  $680,570  at June 30,  1996.  Of this,
$427,209 net cash was provided by the  operating  activities  of the first three
months,  $109,132 was used by investing  activities and $0 was used by financing
activities.  During the three months,  the  registrant's  investment  activities
comprised of $109,132 which was solely used for additions to property, plant and
equipment, and for additions to patents and trademarks.

     In September of 1996 a $.07 per share  dividend was declared and is payable
in the second quarter.

     Working  capital of $5,857,707  increased  $188,766 during the three months
and the working  capital ratio increased to 6.40 to 1 from 6.31 to 1 at June 30,
1996.

     Stockholders'  equity per share at  September  30, 1996  increased  1.2% to
$4.33 per share  compared  with $4.28 per share at June 30,  1996.  Although the
Board had  previously  authorized  a stock buy back no shares of GMCC stock were
purchased during the quarter.

     Management  believes that internal cash flow and/or incomes from marketable
securities  are  expected to be  sufficient  to provide  the  capital  resources
necessary  to  support  future  operating  needs,  and does not  anticipate  any
material expenditures that will have significant impact on future cash flows.
<PAGE>
Item 2B - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations:
          Quarter --- September 30, 1996 compared with September 30, 1995:

     Sales  rose this  quarter  as  reflected  in the  current  period  sales of
$2,431,060,  an  increase  of $4,729  or .2% from the same  quarter  last  year.
Management  expects this positive trend in sales  increases to continue  through
the remainder of the year. The construction of additional space at our Wisconsin
facility is now complete and fully operational. As expected, response to our Web
site on the World Wide Web  (http://www.magnaplate.com)  has steadily increased,
and has resulted in additional sales. The additional  international  advertising
has been met with  tremendous  response as  justified  by  increased  royalties.
Royalty and  investment  and other income for the first quarter were $65,187 and
$104,771 compared with $41,398 and $144,336 from last year's first quarter.  The
$23,789  increase in royalty  income is a direct  result of higher  sales volume
reported by all of our  licensees.  Negotiations  are  continuing  to take place
regarding potential new licensees.  Investment income is down slightly,  this is
attributable  to an  adjustment  of  investments  to market  value.  Though  the
investment market has been unsteady lately,  management believes it's investment
portfolio to be sound, diversified and less at risk to market fluctuations while
providing dividends and interest income.

     Reflecting  the above,  gross revenue for the first quarter of this year of
$2,601,018 dropped slightly by .4% or $11,047 from the same quarter last year.

     Total costs and expenses  were  $2,124,481 in the first quarter an increase
of $42,371 or 2% from the same period  last year.  Management  has  successfully
stabilized  costs in direct  proportion  to  revenue  and  continues  to monitor
spending.

    Income  before  corporate  income  taxes was  $476,537 in this year's  first
quarter,  a decline of $53,418 or 10% from the $529,955  achieved in last year's
first quarter.  Corporate income taxes and the effective tax rate for the period
were  $176,700 and 37.1%  respectively,  compared with $194,400 and 36.7% in the
first quarter of last year.

     Based on the  above,  net  income  in the  first  quarter  of this  year of
$299,837  decreased  $35,718 or 10.6% from the  $335,555 in the same period last
year.

     Earnings  per share  were down 9% in this  year's  first  quarter  (or $.11
compared to $.12 in last year's first quarter). No shares of treasury stock were
purchased this quarter, resulting in a weighted average of shares outstanding of
2,634,797 compared with 2,742,656 for the same period last year.

     Management believes the existing legal matters as detailed in note 7 to the
consolidated  financial  statements  will have no  significant  impact on future
earnings.

      Negotiations are in progress regarding a potential new licensee in Korea.

      No other significant  financial matters are expected in future months that
will have an adverse impact on earnings.
