                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


                  In April 1997,  the  Company was  informed by the UDC that the
                  loan was sold and  conveyed  to WAMCO  XXIV,  Ltd.  All of the
                  terms and conditions of the loan remained in effect.

                  As of December 25, 1998, 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.

Note 5 - LOAN PAYABLE (continued)

                  The Company reported tangible net worth of $571,015. The ratio
                  of current assets to current liabilities was .95 to 1.0.

                  The Company had previously  received a waiver of this covenant
                  from the UDC through the period  ending March 31, 1994 and has
                  applied for additional  waivers of this covenant.  Neither the
                  UDC or WAMCO XXVI, Ltd. Has acted on these requests.

                  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 in
                  default  of this  loan  obligation  and the  entire  loan plus
                  interest will become due and payable.

Note 6 - NOTES PAYABLE:

                  The  Company  was in arrears in the amount of  $236,000 to the
                  New York City Economic Development  Corporation ("NYCEDC") for
                  rent due for its offices and manufacturing  facilities. In May
                  1997,  the Company and the NYCEDC  negotiated an agreement for
                  the Company to pay off its indebtedness over a 48 month period
                  by the Company issuing notes payable to NYCEDC. The note bears
                  interest at the rate of 8.25% per annum. The balance remaining
                  at December 25, 1998 was $146,992.

Note 7 - NOTES PAYABLE EQUIPMENT:

                  The Company financed the acquisition of new computer equipment
                  and software with notes payable.  The notes are payable over a
                  sixty month  period.  The balance  remaining  at December  25,
                  amounted to $55,570.

Note 8 - 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.   The  total
contributions charged to operations under this pension plan were $28,186 for the
nine months ended December 25, 1998.

         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.
Additionally, both parties agreed that current obligatory funding by the Company
will be made on a timely basis.

         Effective  February  1, 1995,  the  Company  withdrew  from the Union's
health  and  welfare  plan and  offered  its  employees  an  alternative  health
insurance plan.

         As of December 25, 1998, the Company  reported  arrears with respect to
its  contributions  to the Union's  health and welfare  and pension  plans.  The
amount due the  health  and  welfare  plan was  $155,189  and the amount due the
pension plan was $3,638.

         The total  amount  due of  $158,827  is  reported  on the  accompanying
balance sheet in two components;  $120,000  reported as a current  liability and
$38,827 as a long-term liability.

         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 Salaried 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   interests  of  the  plan's
participants. Accordingly, the PBGC proceeded 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 8 - COMMITMENTS:(continued)

                  At  December  25,  1998 and March  28,  1998,  $65,489  of the
                  pension  liability is included in other  current  liabilities,
                  with the balance of $516,966 shown as long-term liability.

                  On those dates, the long-term portion includes $226,041, which
                  represents the recognition of additional  minimum liability to
                  comply  with  the   requirements  of  Statement  of  Financial
                  Standards No. 87.

                  In August 1998,  the Company was notified by the PBGC that the
                  Company is liable to the PBGC for the following  amounts as of
                  September 1, 1998:

                        - $456,418  representing  the amount of unfunded benefit
                          liabilities of the Plan
                        - $242,097 representing funding liability
                        - $ 2,931 representing the premium liability

                  The total amount claimed by the PBGC amounts to $701,446.

                  The amount  claimed is being  contested by the Company and the
                  PBGC has  granted  the  Company  an  extension  of time  until
                  February 22, 1999 in which to file an appeal.  The Company has
                  retained outside counsel in order to respond to this claim.

                  On  December  1, 1998,  the  Company  amended its lease on its
                  premises by surrendering a portion of its rented premises back
                  to its  landlord.  Accordingly,  the  base  monthly  rent  was
                  reduced to  $9,397.11  or  $112,765.29  per annum  through the
                  conclusion of the lease which ends August 23, 2001.

Note 9 - CHANGES IN STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:

                  The  Company  retired 34 shares of its issued and  outstanding
                  common stock during the quarter ended September 25, 1998.

                  Retained  earnings  (deficit)  increased  by  $84,018,   which
                  represents the net loss for the nine months ended December 25,
                  1998.

Note 10 - YEAR 2000 COMPUTER ISSUE:

                  The Company  does not believe that the impact of the year 2000
                  computer   issue  will  have  a  significant   impact  on  its
                  operations  or financial  position.  The Company has allocated
                  approximately  $100,000 to upgrade its computer  operations to
                  obviate any potential problems that might arise as a result of
                  the impact of the year 2000.  To date the Company has acquired
                  new  computer  equipment  at a cost of  $65,847.  However,  if
                  internal  systems do not correctly  recognize date information
                  when  the year  changes  to 2000,  there  could be an  adverse
                  impact on the Company's operations.  Furthermore, there can be
                  no  assurances  that another  entity's  failure to ensure year
                  2000  capability  would  not  have an  adverse  effect  on the
                  Company.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS:

                  Operating revenues for the nine months ended December 25, 1998
                  amounted to $3,294,571,  reflecting a 9.6% decrease versus the
                  comparative nine months operating revenues of $3,646,250.  The
                  decrease is a direct result of management's effort to redirect
                  its  dependence on government and military sales to developing
                  new market sales in the commercial electronic sector.

                  Cost of  products  sold  amounted to  $2,416,580  for the nine
                  months ended December 25, 1998 or 73.4% of operating revenues.
                  This  reflected  a decrease  of $59,876 or 2.4% in the cost of
                  products sold of $2,476,456 for the nine months ended December
                  26, 1997. This decrease is primarily due to reduced production
                  costs  inherent in producing  new  products.  Cost of products
                  sold increased as a percentage of revenues in the  comparative
                  periods.

                  Selling,  general and administrative expenses were $644,255 or
                  19.6% of  revenues  compared  to $777,804 or 21.2% of revenues
                  for the comparable  nine month period ended December 26, 1997.
                  This  reflected a decrease of 17.2% and reflects  management's
                  efforts to better control expenses.

                  Interest  expense  was $99,650 or 3.0% of revenues as compared
                  to $86,370 or 2.5% of revenues in the nine month  period ended
                  December  26,  1997.  This  increase  of  15.4%  reflects  the
                  increase in  borrowing  by the  Company in the current  fiscal
                  period.

                  Depreciation  and amortization of $205,740 or 6.2% of revenues
                  was  reported  for the nine month  period  ended  December 25,
                  1998.  This  reflects a decrease  of 0.2% from the  comparable
                  nine month period ended  December 26, 1997 of $209,520 or 5.8%
                  of   revenues.   The   decrease  is  a  result  of   decreased
                  depreciation  levels on fixed  assets  during  the nine  month
                  period ended December 25, 1998.

                  The Company reported a net loss of $84,018 for the nine months
                  ended December 25, 1998,  representing basic loss per share of
                  $.036 as  compared  to basic  income of  $84,902  or $.037 per
                  common share for the nine months ended December 26, 1997.

                  The  resultant  decrease  in net income can be  attributed  to
                  reduced  sales in the  commercial  sector in the current  nine
                  month period ending December 25, 1998.

</TABLE>

         COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS

Operating  revenues  for the three months  ended  December 25, 1998  amounted to
$973,227,  reflecting  a 11.6%  decrease  versus the  comparative  three  months
operating   revenues  of  $1,100,515.   The  decrease  is  a  direct  result  of
management's  to redirect its  dependence  on government  and military  sales to
developing new market sales in the commercial electronic sector.

         Cost of products  sold  amounted to $728,445 for the three months ended
December 25, 1998 or 74.9% of operating  revenues.  This reflected a decrease of
$58,776 or 7.5% of the cost of products  sold of $787,221  for the three  months
ended  December 26, 1997.  This decrease is primarily due to reduced  production
costs inherent in producing new products.  Costs of products sold increased as a
percentage of revenues in the comparative periods.
<PAGE>
         Selling,  general and administrative expenses were $222,283 or 22.9% of
revenues  compared to $259,564 or 23.7% of  revenues  for the  comparable  three
month period ended  December  26, 1997.  This  reflected a decrease of 14.3% and
reflects management's efforts to better control expenses.

         Interest expense was $33,288 or 3.4% of revenues as compared to $33,997
or 3.1% of revenues in the three month  period ended  December  26,  1997.  This
decrease  of 2.1%  reflects  this  decrease in  borrowing  by the Company in the
current fiscal period.

         Depreciation  and  amortization  of  $68,580  or 7.0% of  revenues  was
reported  for the three month period ended  December 25, 1998.  This  reflects a
decrease of .02% from the comparable  three month period ended December 26, 1997
of  $69,840  or  6.3%  of  revenues.  The  decrease  is a  result  of  decreased
depreciation levels on fixed assets during the three month period ended December
25, 1998.

         The Company  reported a net loss of $83,536 for the three  months ended
December 25, 1998,  representing basic loss per common share of $.36 as compared
to a basic loss of $55,064 or $.024 per common  share for the three months ended
December 25, 1998.

         The resultant decrease in net income can be attributed to reduced sales
in the commercial  sector in the current three month period ending  December 25,
1998.
