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

Results of Operation
--------------------

    Sales for the second quarter ended July 1, 1995 increased 56% to $5,767,000
from $3,704,000 for the same period of 1994.  Sales for the six months ended
July 1, 1995 were $10,620,000 versus $7,288,000 for the same period in 1994, an
increase of 46%.  Bookings for the three months ended July 1, 1995 increased 47%
to $6,736,000 from $4,584,000 for the same period in 1994.  Bookings for the six
months ended July 1, 1995 were $12,069,000 versus $8,212,000 for the same period
in 1994, an increase of 47%.  The increase in bookings and revenue were a result
of increased demand for the Company's UNITHERM(R), UNITHERM(R) II and
ISOTHERM/TM/ products.  The Company does not anticipate that the percentage
increase in net revenue and bookings for the three and six month periods ending
July 1, 1995 are necessarily indicative of the percentage increase in net
revenues to be expected for the entire fiscal year.  Backlog as of July 1, 1995
was $4,038,000 versus $2,589,000 at December 31, 1994 and $3,057,000 as of July
2, 1994.

    Gross margin for the three months ended July 1, 1995 increased to 42%
from 37% for the same period in 1994.  For the six month period ended July 1,
1995, the gross margin percentage was 40% versus 35% for the same period in
1993.  The increase in margins is due to a significantly higher volume of sales,
reduced overhead spending and reduced material costs.  The Company increased its
deductions/write-offs for excess and obsolete inventory to $101,000 in the 
second quarter of 1995, as compared to $76,000 in the first quarter of 1994, and
increased its provision for inventory reserves from $367,000 at the end of 1994 
to $522,000 at the end of the second quarter of 1995. Deductions and write-offs 
for the first six months of 1995 were $155,000 as compared to $106,000 in 1994. 
Such increases are principally related to the Company's production process and 
product line evolution. As the Company made changes in designs and processes, 
certain existing inventories were affected.  The Company also changed its 
production process as the UNITHERM/TM/ product evolved.  This change 
necessitated the rework of certain inventory items and the obsolescence of other
items.  The Company increased its reserves for obsolescence in recognition of 
these events.

    Operating expenses for the three months ended July 1, 1995 were
$1,931,000 versus $1,246,000 for the same period of 1994, an increase of  55%.
Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 33% and 34%, respectively.
Operating expenses for the six months ended July 1, 1995 were $3,524,000 versus
$2,394,000 for the same period in 1994, an increase of 47%.  Operating expenses
as a percentage of sales were 33% and 33%, for the resepctive six month periods.
The increase in actual spending is a result of the higher sales volume which
resulted in higher commission and marketing expenses and increased staffing
levels. The Company also incurred approximately $100,000 of costs relating to
the Registration Statement filed on Form S-3 and an additional $100,000 of costs
associated with the anticipated conversion of the $1.2 million subordinated
convertible debenture.

    For the second quarter of 1995, selling, general and administrative

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
expenses as a percentage of sales were 26% versus 25% in 1994. The costs
relating to the Registration Statement and debenture conversion which were
included in selling, general & administrative expenses represented 3% of sales
in the second quarter and 2% of sales for the six month period. Research and
development expenses as a percentage of sales for such periods were 6% in 1995,
and 7% in 1994. For the six months ended July 1, 1995 selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 26% as compared to 25% in
1994. Research and development expenses as a percentage of sales were 6% in 1995
and 7% in 1994.

    Patent litigation costs were $75,000 for the second quarter of 1995 as
compared to $60,000 for the second quarter of 1994.  For the six month period
ended July 1, 1995, patent litigation costs were $150,000 as compared to $91,000
for the same period in 1994.

    The Company had non-operating expenses, primarily interest expense net, of
$52,000 for the three months ended July 1, 1995 compared with $55,000 for the
same period of 1994.  During the first six months of 1995, the Company incurred
non-operating expenses, primarily interestexpense net, of $103,000 compared with
$121,000 for the same period of 1994.

    Net income for the second quarter of 1995 was $426,000 compared to $59,000
for the comparable period of 1994.  Net income was $.05 per primary share, and
$.04 per fully diluted share.   For the comparable 1994 period, net income per
share was $.01.  Net income for the first six months of 1995 was $650,000
compared to $71,000 for the same period in 1994.  Net income for the six month
period of 1995 was $.08 per primary share, and $.07 per fully diluted share.
For the comparable period of 1994, net income per share was $.01.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

    The Company continues to monitor its operational spending levels very
closely with the goal of cash conservation.  During the first six months of
1995, cash increased $181,000 to $852,000.

    During March 1995, the Company obtained a $500,000 revolving line of credit
with First National Bank of Portsmouth.  The Company believes this funding
source, combined with its existing cash balances and anticipated cash flow from
operations, will be adequate to meet its working capital requirements for the
remainder of the year.  To date, the Company has not utilized this line of
credit.

     On April 25, 1995, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3, 
and an amended Form S-3 on July 18, 1995, August 3, 1995 and August 9, 1995 with
the Securities and Exchange Commission covering 2,888,225 shares of its common
stock which includes 2,400,000 shares reserved for issuance upon conversion of
the Company's outstanding $1.2 million subordinated convertible debenture dated
October 1, 1993, 346,225 shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants
held by the underwriter for the Company's 1992 Right's Offering and 142,000
shares sold to a vendor of the Company in 1992. The Company filed the
Registration Statement due to the exercise of registration rights previously
granted to the holders of the Company's underwriter warrants and subordinated
convertible debenture. The Company will incur the cost of the registration.
However, the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the stock by
the selling stockholders. The holders of the Company's subordinated convertible
debenture will convert the entire debenture and are selling 1,920,000 of the
2,400,000 shares pursuant to a firm commitment underwriting by Schneider
Securities, Inc.
