                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in  accordance  with the  instructions  to Form 10-Q used for quarterly
reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,  and
therefore,  do not include all  information  and footnotes  necessary for a fair
presentation  of financial  position,  results of  operations  and cash flows in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

         The consolidated financial information included in this report has been
prepared in conformity  with the  accounting  principles and methods of applying
those accounting principles,  reflected in the consolidated financial statements
included  in the  Annual  Report  on Form 10-K  filed  with the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 1994.

         All  adjustments  necessary for a fair statement of the results for the
interim periods presented have been recorded.

         The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.


BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS


         On March 14, 1994 the Registrant, through a new wholly-owned subsidiary
known as Kentile, Inc. ("Kentile"), purchased substantially all of the operating
assets of  Kentile  Floors,  Inc.  ("Kentile  Floors")  for  approximately  $9.6
million.  The purchase price was comprised of approximately  $6.5 million in new
bank financing and approximately $3.1 million in cash.

         The $3.1 million cash payment  includes  $775,000  that was advanced to
Kentile Floors by the Registrant during 1993 and was also partially derived from
a total of $4 million in  short-term  borrowings  by the  Registrant  during the
first quarter of 1994.  These funds were used by Kentile Floors to repay amounts
outstanding  under its  asset-based  lending  agreement,  thereby  relieving the
Registrant of its obligation under the letter of credit, discussed below.

         In November 1992,  Kentile Floors filed for protection under Chapter 11
of the  United  States  Bankruptcy  Code.  Subsequent  thereto,  the  Registrant
acquired a 1/3 equity  interest  in Kentile  Floors  together  with an option to
purchase an additional  equity interest in the future. In consideration for this
interest  and option in Kentile  Floors,  the  Registrant  provided a $2 million
letter  of  credit to  partially  guarantee  borrowings  under  Kentile  Floor's
asset-based  lending  agreement.  The  letter  of  credit  arrangement  was made
pursuant  to  Bankruptcy  Court  approval on a priority  basis.  In light of the
uncertain  outcome  of  Kentile  Floor's  bankruptcy  proceedings,  no value was
assigned to the equity interest acquired by the Registrant.

         The  acquisition  of Kentile has been  accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting and, accordingly,  the purchase price, including associated
costs of the  acquisition,  was  allocated to assets  acquired  and  liabilities
assumed  based on their fair  value at the date of  acquisition  as follows  (in
thousands):

         Net current assets and liabilities               $ 4,690
         Property, plant & equipment                        2,608
         Noncurrent assets                                  2,463
         Long-term liabilities                               (154)
                                                          -------

           Allocated purchase price                       $ 9,607
                                                          =======


         The  results  of  operations  of  Kentile  have  been  included  in the
accompanying  consolidated  statements  of income from the date of  acquisition,
March 14, 1994.

         Included  in  prepaid   expenses  and  other  current   assets  in  the
accompanying   December   31,  1994   consolidated   financial   statements   is
approximately   $800,000  related  to  unutilized   equipment  acquired  in  the
acquisition  of Kentile,  which is to be sold under a contract  entered  into in
March 1995.  The  Registrant  has valued the equipment in  accordance  with this
agreement and included this transaction in the allocation of the purchase price,
noted  above.  Accordingly,  no gain has  been  recognized  in the  accompanying
consolidated financial statements.

         The following unaudited pro-forma consolidated results of operations of
the  Registrant  for the three  months  ended  March 31,  1994,  assume that the
acquisition of Kentile had occurred at the beginning of such period. In addition
to  combining  historical  results  of  operations  of the  two  companies,  the
pro-forma calculations include adjustments to historical assets, liabilities and
results of operations which occur in a purchase.

         The above financial  information is not  necessarily  indicative of the
actual  results  that would have  occurred had the  acquisition  of Kentile been
consummated at the beginning of the period presented or of future  operations of
the combined companies.


         In February 1994, the Registrant also acquired the underlying  mortgage
secured by Kentile Floor's South Plainfield  facility for $2,250,000.  This note
has a face amount outstanding of approximately $6.5


                                  Page 8 of 17

million plus delinquent accrued interest.  The Registrant has accounted for this
mortgage as an  in-substance  foreclosure in 1994 and  accordingly  recorded the
purchase  price  as a  component  of  real  property  held  for  rental  in  the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1994. In accordance with
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 114,  "Accounting by Creditors
for  Impairment  of a  Loan"  ("SFAS  114"),  effective  January  1,  1995,  the
Registrant  has revised its  accounting  for this  acquisition  to include  such
amounts in  noncurrent  notes  receivable  in the  accompanying  March 31,  1995
consolidated balance sheet.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Investments in debt securities are classified as  held-to-maturity  and measured
at amortized cost in the  consolidated  balance sheet only if the Registrant has
the positive intent and ability to hold those  securities to maturity.  Debt and
equity  securities  that are purchased and held  principally  for the purpose of
selling  in the near term will be  measured  at fair  value  and  classified  as
trading  securities.  For the purpose of calculating  realized gains and losses,
the cost of investments sold is determined using the first-in, first-out method.
Unrealized  gains and  losses on  trading  securities  are  included  in current
earnings.  All  securities  not  classified as trading or  held-to-maturity  are
classified as  available-for-sale  and measured at fair value.  Unrealized gains
and losses on  securities  available-for-sale  are  recorded  net, as a separate
component of  stockholders'  equity until  realized.  Management  determines the
appropriate  classification of securities at the time of purchase and reassesses
the appropriateness of the classification at each reporting date.

The   aggregate   market  value  of  marketable   securities,   which  were  all
available-for-sale, was $405,104 and $594,070 at March 31, 1995 and December 31,
1994  respectively,  while gross  unrealized  holding gains of the  Registrant's
marketable  security portfolio were $93,399 and $61,863 on a net of tax basis as
of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively.

DEFERRED TAXES

The components of the net deferred tax asset (liability) at March 31, 1995 are
as follows:

Realization allowances related to
  accounts receivable and inventories                          $ 588,407

CONTINGENCIES

         The Registrant has undertaken the completion of  environmental  studies
and/or remedial action at Metex' two New Jersey facilities.

         The process of remediation has begun at one facility pursuant to a plan
filed with the New Jersey  Department  of  Environmental  Protection  and Energy
("NJDEPE").  Environmental experts engaged by the Registrant estimate that under
the  most  probable  remediation  scenario  the  remediation  of  this  site  is
anticipated to require initial  expenditures of $860,000,  including the cost of
capital equipment,  and $86,000 in annual operating and maintenance costs over a
15-year period.

         Environmental  studies at the second facility indicate that remediation
may be  necessary.  Based  upon the  facts  presently  available,  environmental
experts have advised the  Registrant  that under the most  probable  remediation
scenario,  the estimated  cost to remediate  this site is anticipated to require
$2.3 million in initial costs,  including  capital equipment  expenditures,  and
$258,000 in annual  operating and maintenance  costs over a 10-year period.  The
Registrant  may revise  such  estimates  in the  future  due to the  uncertainty
regarding the nature,  timing and extent of any remediation  efforts that may be
required at this site, should an appropriate regulatory agency deem such efforts
to be necessary.

         The foregoing estimates may also be revised by the Registrant as new or
additional information in these matters become available or should the NJDEPE or
other regulatory agencies require additional or alternative  remediation efforts
in the future.  It is not currently  possible to estimate the range or amount of
any such liability.

         Although the  Registrant  believes  that it is entitled to full defense
and indemnification with respect to environmental  investigation and remediation
costs under its insurance policies,  the Registrant's  insurers have denied such
coverage.  Accordingly,  the  Registrant  has  filed an action  against  certain
insurance carriers seeking defense and indemnification with respect to all prior
and future costs incurred in the  investigation  and remediation of these sites.
Upon the advice of counsel,  the  Registrant  believes that based upon a present
understanding of the facts and the present state of the law in New Jersey, it is
probable that the Registrant will prevail in the pending  litigation and thereby
access all or a very  substantial  portion of the insurance  coverage it claims;
however, the ultimate outcome of litigation cannot be predicted.

         As a result of the foregoing,  the Registrant has not recorded a charge
to  operations  for  the   environmental   remediation,   noted  above,  in  the
consolidated  financial  statements,  as  anticipated  proceeds  from  insurance
recoveries are expected to offset such  liabilities.  The Registrant has reached
settlements  with several  insurance  carriers in this matter.  Those recoveries
anticipated to be received within twelve months are included in prepaid expenses
and other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

         In the opinion of management,  these matters will be resolved favorably
and such  amounts,  if any,  not  recovered  under  the  Registrant's  insurance
policies will be paid gradually over a period of years and, accordingly,  should
not have a material  adverse  effect upon the  business,  liquidity or financial
position of the Registrant.  However, adverse decisions or events,  particularly
as to the merits of the  Registrant's  factual  and legal  basis could cause the
Registrant  to change its estimate of liability  with respect to such matters in
the future.


                                 Page 10 of 17
<PAGE>



         Effective  January 1, 1994 the Registrant has adopted the provisions of
Staff Accounting Bulletin 92 and accordingly has recorded the expected liability
associated  with   remediation   efforts  as  a  component  of  other  long-term
liabilities and the anticipated  insurance  recoveries as a component of prepaid
expenses  and  other  current  assets  and  other  assets  in  the  Registrant's
consolidated financial statements.

         The  Registrant  is  involved  in various  other  litigation  and legal
matters which are being defended and handled in the ordinary course of business.
None of these  matters are  expected  to result in a judgment  having a material
adverse effect on the Registrant's consolidated financial position or results of
operations.

COMMON STOCK

         During the first three months of 1995,  the  Registrant  purchased  and
retired 29,700 shares of its common stock at a cost of $258,022. During the same
period in 1994,  13,500 shares of the  Registrant's  common stock were purchased
and retired at a cost of $131,246.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

         Earnings per share computations for each quarterly period presented are
based on the  weighted  average  number of common  shares  and  dilutive  common
equivalent  shares  outstanding  during the  period.  Fully  diluted and primary
earnings  per  common  share  are the  same  amounts  for  each  of the  periods
presented. Earnings per share data is neither restated nor adjusted currently to
obtain quarterly amounts which equal the amount computed for the year-to-date.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

         Certain amounts have been  reclassified in the prior year  consolidated
financial  statements  to present  them on a basis  consistent  with the current
year.


ITEM 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
  CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1994

         Revenues  for  the  three  month  period  ended  March  31,  1995  were
$29,003,000, a $7,647,000 increase from comparable 1994 revenues. Net income for
the  period  was  $827,000  or $.14  per  share as  compared  to net  income  of
$1,442,000 or $.23 per share for the same period in 1994.


REAL ESTATE OPERATIONS

         Rental revenues from real estate operations  decreased $265,000 for the
three month  period ended March 31,  1995,  as compared to such  revenues in the
comparable  period  of 1994.  This  decrease  is  primarily  the  result  of the
collection of certain  retroactive rental payments in the first quarter of 1994,
which



                                 Page 11 of 17

<PAGE>


were not previously accrued, offset by higher rents from the renewal of existing
leases in the current year period.

         Mortgage interest expense decreased $125,000 during the current quarter
ended March 31, 1995, versus such expense of the  corresponding  period in 1994.
This decrease of  approximately  9% is due to continuing  mortgage  amortization
resulting  from  the  repayment  of  approximately   $5.5  million  in  mortgage
indebtedness during the last 12 months.

         Depreciation  expense  associated with rental  properties was virtually
unchanged  during the three month period  ended March 31,  1995,  as compared to
such costs during the corresponding period of 1994.

         Operating  expenses  associated  with  the  management  of real  estate
properties  increased  approximately  $147,000 or 13% for the three month period
ended  March 31,  1995,  versus  the  comparable  period in 1994.  The timing of
certain maintenance costs in the current and prior year periods account for this
increase.

ANTENNA SYSTEMS

         The  Registrant's  antenna systems  segment  includes Dorne & Margolin,
Inc. and D&M/Chu Technology, Inc.

         The  operating  results of the  antenna  systems  segment for the three
month period ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 are as follows:

                                                     =======          ======


         Net sales of the  antenna  systems  segment  decreased  $312,000  or 6%
during  the first  quarter  of 1995  versus  such  sales  generated  during  the
respective  1994 period.  Reductions in sales continue to effect this segment of
the  Registrant's  business.  Many changes have been implemented to reverse this
trend which are  beginning  to take hold,  including  a 31%  increase in backlog
compared to a year earlier.

         Cost of sales as a  percentage  of net sales  increased  from the prior
year by 4.1%, for the three month period just ended. This increase is the result
of  changes  in  the  mix  of  products  sold  and  from  incurring   additional
manufacturing  costs of certain D&M/Chu products that are now being manufactured
at  Dorne  &  Margolin.  This is not  expected  to  continue  in the  future  as
experience is gained in the production of these products.

         Selling,  general  and  administrative  costs  of the  antenna  systems
segment decreased by approximately $72,000 during the first three months of 1995
as compared to such costs of the  comparable  1994 period.  This decrease is the
result of administrative savings resulting from the consolidation of the Dorne &
Margolin and D&M/Chu operations and from the reduction in sales, noted above.

ENGINEERED PRODUCTS

         The Registrant's engineered products segment includes Metex Corporation
and AFP Transformers, Inc.

         The operating results of the engineered  products segment for the three
month period ending March 31, 1995 and 1994 are as follows:

the three  month  period  ending  March 31,  1995,  versus  such  results of the
comparable  three month period in 1994. This increase is primarily the result of
higher airbag and automotive related sales at Metex' Technical Products Division
as well as higher sales generated by AFP Transformers.

         Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales  increased by  approximately
1.5% in the  three  month  period  ended  March 31,  1995,  as  compared  to the
respective period in 1994 primarily as a result of changes in the mix of product
sales.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses of the engineered products
segment  increased by $370,000 during the first three months of 1995 versus such
costs of the  comparable  1994 period.  This increase is primarily the result of
additional selling costs associated with the increased sales volume noted above.

RESILIENT VINYL FLOORING

         The Registrant's  resilient vinyl flooring segment,  which is now known
as  Kentile,  Inc.  ("Kentile"),  was  acquired  on March 14,  1994  through the
acquisition of substantially all of the operating assets of Kentile Floors, Inc.
The  operations  of  Kentile  have been  included  here and in the  accompanying
consolidated statements of income since the acquisition date, as outlined below.

         The  overall  increase  in net  sales  and  operating  expenses  of the
resilient  vinyl  flooring  segment  during the  current  quarter  is  primarily
attributable  to the inclusion of three full months of operations in the current
year as compared to less than one month during the first quarter of 1994.

         Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales  increased by  approximately
18% in the three months ended March 31, 1995 versus that of the comparable  1994
period.  This increase is the result of increased raw material costs, which have
not been  fully  passed on to the  customer,  and the  seasonal  impact of lower
production and accordingly higher  manufacturing  costs, in the first two months
of the year,  which were not  consolidated  in 1994 as a result of the mid-March
acquisition.

         Selling,  general and administrative  expenses increased as a result of
the 1994 mid-quarter  acquisition,  noted above, however, as a percentage of net
sales such expenses increased by less than 1% from the first quarter of 1994.

See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a further explanation of the
acquisition and pro-forma financial information.


GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

         General  and   administrative   expenses   not   associated   with  the
manufacturing  operations decreased by $147,000 for the three month period ended
March 31, 1995 versus that of the same period in 1994.  This decrease in general
and administrative expenses is the result of lower professional fees incurred in
the current year period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         At March 31,1995 the Registrant's  current liabilities exceeded current
assets by  approximately  $5,276,000.  This  shortfall  primarily  results  from
financing  the  purchase of long-term  assets  utilizing  short-term  borrowings
during 1994, primarily in connection with the acquisition of Kentile. Management
is confident  that  through cash flow  generated  from  operations,  the sale of
select assets and the refinancing of certain current  liabilities on a long-term
basis, all obligations will be satisfied as they come due.

         The  Registrant  has an  unsecured  line of  credit  with a bank  which
provides for  borrowings  up to $15 million at the bank's prime lending rate. At
March 31, 1995,  $2,750,000 was  outstanding  under this  facility.  This demand
facility is reviewed by the bank annually on May 31.


         Kentile  maintains  a  revolving  credit  facility  with a  bank  which
provides  for maximum  borrowings  of the lessor of $7 million or the  borrowing
base, as defined,  at the bank's prime lending rate plus 1 1/2%. Such borrowings
are  collateralized  by all  accounts  receivable,  inventory  and  equipment of
Kentile. At March 31, 1995 approximately $5.1 million was outstanding under this
facility.

         The Registrant has undertaken the completion of  environmental  studies
and/or  remedial  action at Metex'  two New Jersey  facilities  and has filed an
action against certain insurance carriers seeking recovery of costs incurred and
to be incurred in these  matters.  Based upon the advice of counsel,  management
believes  such  recovery is probable  and  therefore  should not have a material
effect on the  liquidity or capital  resources of the  Registrant.  See notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

         The  cash  needs of the  Registrant  have  been  satisfied  from  funds
generated by current operations and additional  borrowings.  It is expected that
future operational cash needs will also be satisfied from ongoing operations and
additional  borrowings.  The primary source of capital to fund  additional  real
estate

                                 Page 15 of 17

acquisitions  will  come  from  the  sale,  financing  and  refinancing  of  the
Registrant's  properties  and from the third party  mortgages and purchase money
notes obtained in connection with specific acquisitions.

         In  addition  to  the  acquisition  of  properties  for   consideration
consisting of cash and mortgage financing  proceeds,  the Registrant may acquire
real  properties  in  exchange  for  the  issuance  of the  Registrant's  equity
securities.  The Registrant may also finance  acquisitions of other companies in
the future  with  borrowings  from  institutional  lenders  and/or the public or
private offerings of debt or equity securities.

         Funds of the  Registrant in excess of that needed for working  capital,
purchasing real estate and arranging  financing for real estate acquisitions are
invested by the  Registrant in corporate  equity  securities,  corporate  notes,
certificates of deposit and government securities.

BUSINESS TRENDS

         Total  revenues of the Registrant  increased  $7,647,000 or 36% for the
first  quarter of 1995 versus such results of the  comparable  1994  period.  Of
these  additional  revenues,  approximately  $6 million was generated by Kentile
during the three month period ending March 31, 1995. Kentile was acquired by the
Registrant in March 1994.  The  Registrant's  engineered  products  segment also
contributed to the increased revenues.

         Kentile  contributed  approximately  $8 million to first  quarter  1995
revenues,  up substantially from the prior year period due to the 1994 mid-March
acquisition.  The operating  results of Kentile reflect a loss of  approximately
$1.2 million in the current year period,  reflecting the operating  difficulties
still  facing  this  segment  of  the  Registrant's   business.   Management  is
concentrated on reversing this trend.

         The results of the Registrant's real estate operations reflect a slight
decrease  in  sales,  primarily  as  a  result  of  the  collection  of  certain
retroactive  rental  payments  in the  first  quarter  of 1994,  which  were not
previously  accrued,  offset by higher rents from the renewal of existing leases
in the current year period.

         The Registrant's engineered products segment continues to reflect sales
growth in  virtually  all market  segments.  This has resulted in an increase of
$2,453,000 in revenues  during the first quarter of 1995 versus  comparable 1994
results. With continued increases in U.S. automobile demand and as more vehicles
are outfitted  with air bags,  demand for these  products  should  continue.  In
addition,   the  results  of  this  segments'  transformer   operations  reflect
improvements  over the prior year and  management  is hopeful to  continue  this
trend.

         The results of the  Registrant's  antenna systems segment reflect lower
sales during the first quarter of 1995 than during the  comparable  1994 period.
Although  U.S.  military  spending  still  remains low, the decrease in spending
appears to have leveled off. In addition, concentrated efforts to increase sales
have been  implemented and is evident by a 31% increase in backlog from the same
period a year ago.

         Although  there can be no  assurances  as to how the  events  discussed
above,  or other  changes  in the  economy  will  impact  the  future  financial
conditions or results of operations of the Registrant,  management  continues to
monitor these developments and has implemented measures to minimize the possible
negative effects they may have upon these businesses.
