As of December 27, 1996, the Company had failed to meet one of
the financial covenants of the loan agreement; namely that the
"Company shall be obligated to maintain a tangible net worth
of not less than $1,300,000 and the Company shall be obligated
to maintain a ratio of current assets to current liabilities
of 1.1 to 1.0. The Company reported tangible net worth of
$571,859. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities
at December 27, 1996 was 1.03 to 1.
The Company had previously received a waiver of this covenant
from the UDC through the period ending July 8, 1993 and had
subsequently received an additional waiver of this covenant
through the period ending March 31, 1994.
There are no assurances that the Company will receive any
additional waivers of this covenant. Should the Company not
receive any additional waivers, then it will be deemed to be
in default of this loan obligation to the UDC and the entire
loan plus interest will become due and payable.

Note 6- COMMITMENTS:
The Company has, with the United Auto Workers of America,
Local 259, a collective bargaining multi-employer pension
plan. Contributions are made in accordance with a negotiated
labor contract and are based on the number of covered
employees employed per month. With the passage of the
Multi-Employer Pension Amendments Act of 1980 ("The Act"), the
Company may become subject to liabilities in excess of
contributions made under the collective bargaining agreement.
Generally, these liabilities are contingent upon the
termination, withdrawal, or partial withdrawal from the Plan.
The Company has not taken any action to terminate, withdraw or
partially withdraw from the Plan nor does it intend to do so
in the future. Under the Act, liabilities would be based upon
the Company's proportional share of the Plan's unfunded vested
benefits which is currently not available. The amount of
accumulated benefits and net assets of such Plan also is not
currently available to the Company. Total contributions
charged to operations under this pension plan were $30,234 for
the nine months ended December 27, 1996.
In December, 1993, the Company and Local 259 entered into a
verbal agreement whereby the Company would satisfy this debt
by the following payment schedule:
The sum of $10,000 will be paid by the Company each
month in satisfaction of the current arrears until
this total debt has been paid. Under this agreement,
the projected payment schedule for arrears will
satisfy the total debt in 49 months.
Additionally, both parties have agreed that current
obligatory funding by the Company will be made on a
timely current basis.
Effective February 1, 1995, the Company withdrew from the
union's health and welfare plan,and offered and provided its
employees an alternative health insurance plan.
As of December 27,1996, the Company reported arrears with
respect to its past contributions to the union's health and
welfare plan and contributions to the pension plan. The amount
due the health and welfare plan was $144,889 and the amount
due the pension plan was $193,602, for a total of $338,491.
The total amount due of $338,491 is reported on the
accompanying balance sheet in two components; $120,000
reported as a current liability and $218,491 as a long-term
liability.

Note 6- COMMITMENTS (continued):
On June 30, 1995, the Company applied to the Pension Benefit
Guaranty Corporation ("PBGC") to have the PBGC assume all of
the Company's responsibilities and liabilities under its
Salaries Pension Plan. On April 26, 1996, the PBGC determined
that the Salaried Pension Plan did not have sufficient assets
available to pay benefits which were and are currently due
under the terms of the Plan. The PBGC further determined that
pursuant to the provisions of the Employment Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") that the Plan must
be terminated in order to protect the interests of the Plan's
participants. Accordingly, the PBGC intends to proceed
pursuant to ERISA to have the Plan terminated and the PBGC
appointed as statutory trustee, and to have July 31, 1995
established as the Plan's termination date.
Note 7- CONTINGENCIES:
In 1979, the Company entered into an agreement with Brevetron
S.A. for the manufacture and sale of certain electrical
connectors. The agreement was a so-called "hybrid" agreement
involving a license under both patent rights and know-how. The
license was non-exclusive, and in fact the Company encountered
licensed competition in the United States in the sale of these
products known as the "Hypertac" socket. The last of these
patents expired in 1992. The Company, however, had continued
to pay licensing fees to Brevetron S.A. and thru the year
ended March 31, 1995 had recorded a licensing fee liability of
$75,417. For the six months ended September 30, 1995, the
Company had recorded an additional $31,783 in license fees.
Upon having outside counsel conduct a review of the agreement,
the Company has advised Brevetron that it believes that there
is no legal obligation for the Company to pay any further
licensing fees. It is the opinion of counsel that the
agreement has been unenforceable since January 7, 1992, the
date of expiration of the latest patent. Accordingly, the
Company had reversed the accrual of license fees of $31,783
that were recorded in the period ending September 30, 1995.
The remaining liability of $75,417 representing the amount of
licensing fees recorded as a liability as of March 31, 1995
was reversed as of March 29, 1996.
Note 8- CHANGES IN STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:
Retained earnings increased by $118,186 which represents the
net income for the nine months ended December 27, 1996.

</TABLE>
Comparative Analysis:
Operating revenues for the nine months ended December 27, 1996 amounted
to $3,603,908, reflecting a 24% increase versus comparative nine months
operating revenues of $2,907,035 for the nine months ended December 31, 1995.
The increase in revenues is a direct result of management's efforts to redirect
its dependence on governmental and military sales to commercial electronic
sales.
<PAGE>
Comparative Analysis (continued)
Cost of products sold amounted to $2,559,287 for the nine months ended
December 27, 1996 or 71% of operating revenues. This reflected a 14.2% increase
in the cost of products sold from $2,240,467 or 77.1% of operating revenues for
the nine months ended December 31, 1995. This increase is primarily due to
increased sales generated by the Company. Cost of sales decreased as a
percentage f revenues due t management's efforts to better control costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $563,460 or 15.6% of
revenues compared to $500,664 or 17.2% of revenues for the comparable nine month
period ending December 31, 1995. This reflected an increase of 12.5% and
reflects the variable impact of increased sales.
Interest expense was $114,623 for the nine months ended December 27,
1996 or 3.2% of operating revenues. For the comparable period ended December 31,
1995, interest expense was $111,297 or 3.8% of operating revenues. The increase
of 3.3% reflects the interest burden on a loan of $435,000 obtained in Fiscal
1993 from the New York State Urban Development Corporation as well as increased
interest rates in fiscal 1994 as compared to the prior year.
Depreciation and amortization of $230,100 or 6.4% of operating revenues
was reported for the nine months ended December 27, 1996. This reflects an
increase of 15.4% from the comparable nine month period ended December 31, 1995
of $199,350 or 6.9% of operating revenues. The increase is as a result of
increased purchases of equipment during the nine months ended December 27, 1996.
The Company reported income before income taxes of $118,186 for the
nine months ended December 27, 1996, representing income per common share of
$.05 as compared to a loss of $163,337 or $.07 per common share for the nine
months ended December 31, 1995. The resultant increased net income can be
attributed to an increase of 24% in operating revenues over the comparable nine
months ended December 31, 1995.

Comparative Analysis:
Operating revenues for the three month period ending December 27, 1996 amounted
to $1,291,804 reflecting a 24.6% increase versus the prior three month period
ending December 31, 1995 of $1,036,549. The increase in revenues in this
comparative period reflects the Company's efforts to redirect its sales focus to
commercial electronic sales.
<PAGE>
Comparative Analysis (continued)
Cost of products sold amounted to $915,661 for the three months ended December
27,1996 or 70.9% of revenues. This reflected an increase of 20.6% in the cost of
products sold from $759,504 or 73.3% of revenues from the comparative three
month period ended December 31,1995. This increase is primarily due to the
increase in revenue and resultant costs associated with production.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $190,371 or 14.8% of revenues,
compared to $165,343 or 16.0% of revenues for the comparative three month period
ending December 31, 1995. This increase of 15.1% was attributed to the variable
impact of increased revenues.

of revenues for the prior three month period ending December 31,1995. The
decrease in interest expense of.2% reflects the lower rates prevailing in the
current three month period as compared to the prior period.

months ended December 27,1996 as compared to $66,450 or 6.3% of revenues for the
prior three month period ending December 31,1995. This expense as a percentage
of revenues increased as a result of an increase in the acquisition of machinery
and equipment during the three month period ended December 31, 1995.

December 27, 1996, representing net income of $.027 per common share as compared
to a net loss of $.001 per common share for the three months ended December
