Item 2.	Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
        and Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales increased 32 percent from the third quarter of fiscal 1994 to the
comparable quarter of 1995, primarily on the strength of ADIC sales. ADIC
Europe, which was formerly a reseller of ADIC products, was acquired in June
1994 and accounts for a substantial portion of this increase.  The 1995
quarter shows strong growth both in library systems and in other
complementary tape storage products.

Sales for the Microelectronics Group also increased for the period, with
growth in both the Power Products and Custom Microelectronics divisions,
although the Power Products Division showed lower growth than expected due
to the rescheduling of certain large orders.  Fiscal year bookings have been
strong, resulting in a microelectronics backlog of $42 million.

Continued comparative growth is expected over the next few quarters with
sales increases anticipated from both the Microelectronics divisions and
from ADIC.

Gross margin for the quarter is 32 percent, down from 33 percent in the
comparable 1994 quarter.  This drop results from a change in the overall mix
of products sold by the Company.  Because of the significant growth in ADIC
sales, these sales comprise a larger percentage of total sales in 1995 than
in 1994, while power products are decreasing as a percentage of total sales.
The shift away from higher margin power products to lower margin ADIC
products resulted in a reduction of gross margin which was partially offset
by improved Microelectronics Group gross margin.  Microelectronics Group
gross margin percentage increased due both to greater volumes and a
continuing trend to produce more of the power products in the Kaohsiung,
Taiwan facility.

Sales and administrative costs increased by $1 million in 1995 over the
comparable quarter but remained at 20 percent of net sales.  Costs for ADIC
Europe, which were included for only part of the 1994 period, comprised the
largest portion of the increase.  Increased sales and marketing costs for
both the Power Products Division and ADIC U.S. operations were significant
as well. 

Research and development costs have increased in both the ADIC and Power
Products divisions and relate to new products being introduced in the fourth
quarter.

Other expenses are comprised primarily of interest expense and have
increased as a result of higher short-term borrowings and higher interest
rates.  Interest expense related to long-term debt has decreased as these
loans are paid down.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In fiscal 1995, the primary source of cash was short-term borrowings on bank
lines of credit.  The domestic line of $8.5 million bears interest at the
bank's prime rate or adjusted LIBOR rate.  The line is subject to certain
restrictive covenants, however, the Company is well within these limits.  In
addition to the working line of credit, the Company has a financing line with
which to purchase capital equipment.  At July 31, 1995, Interpoint had
approximately $400 thousand of capital expenditures to be reimbursed under
this line.

Significant increases can be seen in trade accounts receivable and
inventories for the fiscal year to date.  The increase in receivables
is attributable to the increase in quarterly sales, much of which shipped in
July.  Inventories have increased in both the ADIC and microelectronics
segments.  As expected, inventory growth has stabilized somewhat in the third
quarter, although balances remain at higher than desirable levels.  The
rescheduling of certain power product orders contributed to inventory growth
for the period.  The Company continues to expect stable inventory throughout
the remainder of the year, and anticipates that the Company will generate
cash from operations for the year as a whole.  The Company believes that it
has sufficient liquidity to meet its cash requirements for the next twelve
months.
