Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 was $2,345,000, compared to
$2,343,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1996. Although total revenue remained
essentially the same for both years, the mix has changed. Revenue from the
Company's traditional dealer business, excluding international, declined by 13%
in fiscal 1997 from the first quarter of fiscal 1996 due primarily to the
expiration of a long-term contract with one dealer. International sales were
minimal in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 and are off sharply from the first
quarter of fiscal 1996 as dealers in the United Kingdom and Germany continued
recapitalization efforts started during fiscal 1996. Revenue from all dealer
business decreased 47% to $375,000 from $707,000 in the prior year. The Company
does expect international sales orders to increase during the second half of
fiscal 1997 as its U.K. distributor finalizes long-term arrangements relative to
the BabiTENS product. Net sales and rental revenue from direct sales increased
20% to $1,970,000 from $1,636,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1996. Those
revenues accounted for approximately 84% of total revenue compared to 70% of
total revenue in fiscal 1996 and represented record quarterly revenue from
direct business. The increase was due primarily to increased volume of rentals,
sales of electrodes and other accessories.

Gross profit increased 8% to $1,728,000 or 74% or revenue in the first
quarter of fiscal 1997 from $1,593,000 or 60% of revenue in the first quarter of
fiscal 1996. Margins on wholesale business were down to 46% compared to 49% in
the first quarter of fiscal 1996, reflecting the decrease in more profitable
international business and continued pressure on selling prices. Margins on
direct business were up to 79% for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to
76% in fiscal 1996. This improvement resulted from a greater portion of rentals
than sales and from the increased volume of higher margin accessory sales.
Overall margins increased because the lower margin wholesale sales represented a
smaller percentage of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 1997.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 8% to $1,307,000 in
the first quarter of fiscal 1997 from $1,207,000 in the first quarter of fiscal
1996. As a percent of revenue, those expenses increased 4% from 52% to 56%. The
increase resulted from continued training and development of an expanded sales
force and increased provision for uncollectible retail receivables.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY, AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operations have required significant amounts of cash since the Company
established its direct sales division in October 1991 and began offering its
products directly to patients. Cash was used to fund increases in net
receivables of $190,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 and $264,000 in the
same quarter of fiscal 1996. The increase in receivables in fiscal 1997 is
attributable primarily to increased direct revenue and the long collection cycle
associated with third-party reimbursement.

During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company increased its reserve
for uncollectible accounts from $1,410,000 to $1,506,000. The reserve is based
on factors including historical trends, relationship and experience with
insurance companies or other third-party reimbursers and patient responsibility
for charges. Based on such factors, the Company believes that its current
reserve for uncollectible accounts is adequate. However, the Company will
continue to provide significant reserves for those accounts not collected within
a reasonable period after submitting invoices to third-party payors and
patients.

In the first quarter of fiscal 1997, effective management of inventories
provided $81,000 in cash. The Company used $95,000 in the first quarter of
fiscal 1996 to increase inventories of clinical units and consignment units for
new territories as a result of expanding its sales force.

The cash needed to fund operations during fiscal 1997, over and above that
generated by operating activities, is being provided by the Company's' revolving
bank line of credit. The line provides for borrowing up to $2,000,000, limited
by eligible accounts receivable. The borrowing base limit was approximately
$1,250,000 at September 30, 1996. Borrowings bear interest at the bank's prime
rate. Interest is paid monthly. Borrowings under the line were $820,000 at
September 30, 1995 and $555,000 at June 30, 1996. The increase related primarily
to decreases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities aggregating $277,000.
The Company anticipates that cash requirements during fiscal 1997 will be less
than its available credit facility.
