                                  (unaudited)


A. Financial Statements:
   ---------------------

   In the opinion of the Company, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
   statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
   adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of May 31,
   1997 and the results of operations for the three and nine months then ended.

   Certain disclosures normally included have been condensed or omitted pursuant
   to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
   although the Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the
   information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that these financial
   statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
   thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year
   ended August 31, 1996.

B. Net Income (Loss) per Share:
   ----------------------------

   Net income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average common and
   dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the periods. Common
   equivalent shares consist of stock options and warrants. Primary income
   (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted
   average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding
   based on the average market price of the Company's common stock (under the
   treasury stock method). Income (loss) per share, on a fully diluted basis, is
   computed as described above utilizing the higher of the ending or average
   market price of the Company's common stock. Primary and fully diluted
   earnings per share are the same for each period.

C. Principles of Consolidation:
   ----------------------------

   The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the
   accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiary, Ecco Industries,
   Inc.  All material intercompany transactions, balances and profits have been
   eliminated.

D. Income Taxes:
   -------------

   The Company provides for income taxes at the end of each interim period based
   on the estimated effective tax rate for the full fiscal year.  Cumulative
   adjustments to the tax provision are recorded in the interim period in which
   a change in the estimated annual effective rate is determined.

   Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Agreement - In February, 1997
   ------------------------------------------------------                    
   the Company repaid approximately $358,000 representing the balance due the
   FDIC for the outstanding note originally payable in full on December 31,
   1997.  The Company recognized an extraordinary gain of $10,446 on this
   transaction representing a prepayment discount from the FDIC  (Note F).

   The aggregate principal payments on long-term obligations as of May
   31, 1997, excluding capital leases are $5,949 (1998) and $15,069 (1999).


F. Bank Arrangements:
   ------------------

   In February 1997, the Company established a bank working capital demand line
   of credit with borrowings up to $1,000,000 and a $250,000 equipment line of
   credit. Available borrowings under the working capital line are based on a
   percentage of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Both lines of
   credit are at the bank's prime rate of interest and all the Company's assets
   are collaterized under these arrangements. The credit agreements contain
   certain restrictive covenants including covenants limiting the payment of
   dividends, and required minimum current ratio and debt to tangible net worth
   ratio. As of May 31, 1997, no borrowings have been made under the lines of
   credit.

G. Capital Lease Commitments:
   --------------------------

   The Company leases certain equipment under capital leases and, accordingly,
   the present value of the net minimum payments has been reflected in
   equipment, furniture and improvements and capitalized lease obligations.

   Future minimum capital lease payments under lease terms in excess of
   one year at May 31, 1997 are as follows:

H. Capital Transactions:
   ---------------------

   In September 1996, the Company granted warrants to two officers to
   purchase an aggregate 19,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of
   $2.12 per share exercisable for a ten-year period.  Each of the warrants were
   assigned a value of $.10 per share to be paid by the officers.

                    ---------------------------------------
                 Financial Condition and Results of Operations
                 ---------------------------------------------

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

As of May 31, 1997, the Company had working capital of $670,846 compared to
$1,044,480 at August 31, 1996.  The ratio of current assets to current
liabilities was 1.4 at May 31, 1997 as compared to 1.7 at August 31, 1996.  The
debt to equity ratio was 1.6 at May 31, 1997 and 1.4 at August 31, 1996.  The
decrease in working capital and current ratio are the result of the repayment of
the loan due the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).  The increase in
the debt to equity ratio is the result of increases in accounts payable and
accrued expenses offset in part by a reduction in the FDIC debt.  The increase
in accrued expenses as of May 31, 1997 as compared to August 31, 1996 is
primarily the result of additional warranty accruals due to an increase in
keypad sales.

Capital expenditures were $172,919 and $119,165 for the nine months ended May
31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The Company has no current commitments for any
material capital expenditures, but the Company anticipates up to $500,000 in
capital expenditures for the purchase of office and manufacturing equipment,
regulatory testing and tooling costs over the next twelve months.

In February, 1997 the Company repaid approximately $358,000 representing the
balance due the FDIC for the outstanding note originally payable on December 31,
1997.  In February, 1997 the Company also established two bank lines of credit.
The lines of credit are for working capital financing up to $1,000,000 and
$250,000 for equipment purchases.  See Notes E and F to Unaudited Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.  As of May 31, 1997, the Company had no
outstanding borrowings under the lines of credit.

Management believes that its current cash position, together with internally
generated funds at present sales levels and its available bank financing, will
provide adequate cash reserves to satisfy its cash requirements for the next
twelve months.  Depending upon whether or not sufficient revenue and working
capital is generated from profitable operations, the Company may require
external funding.  There is no assurance that profits will be generated, or
additional external funding will be obtainable, if such a need should arise.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 increased 4% as compared to the
third quarter of fiscal 1996.  Net sales for the first nine months of fiscal
1997 increased 9% as compared to the comparable period of fiscal 1996.  The
increase in sales for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1997
primarily reflects increases in access control and keypad sales, offset in part
by a reduction in glassbreak detector and OEM sales.

The ratio of gross profit to sales for the three months ended May 31, 1997 and
1996 were 40% and 43%, respectively.  The ratio of gross profit to sales for the
nine months ended May 31, 1997 and 1996 were 40% and 42%, respectively.  The
decreases are primarily the result of product mix and an increase in certain
manufacturing costs.

The increase in research and development costs for the third quarter and first
nine months of fiscal 1997 as compared to the comparable periods of fiscal 1996
reflect the hiring of additional personnel and related expenses and an increase
in contract services.

As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses were
34% and 35% for the three months ended May 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively and
were 34% and 35% for the nine months ended May 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
The gain on extinguishment of debt for the nine months ended May 31, 1997 of
$10,446 represents a prepayment discount from the FDIC.  The provision for
income taxes for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1997
represents foreign, federal alternative minimum taxes and state tax expense.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121 "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of"
is effective for fiscal 1997. SFAS No. 128 "Earnings per Share" will be
effective commencing with the Company's second quarter in fiscal 1998. The
Company believes there will be no material impact for the adoption of SFAS No.
121 and SFAS No. 128 on its financial statements.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

Information provided by the Company in writing and orally, from time to time may
contain certain "forward-looking" information as this term is defined by:  (1)
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act") and (2) in
releases made by the Securities and Exchange Commission.  These cautionary
statements are being made pursuant to the provisions of the Act and with the
intention of obtaining the benefits of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Act.
The Company cautions investors that any forward-looking statements made by the
Company involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to
differ materially from those projected.

The Company has identified certain risks and uncertainties as factors which may
impact on its operating results which are detailed below.  All of these factors
are difficult for the Company to forecast, and these or other factors can
materially adversely affect the Company's business and operating results for one
quarter or a series of quarters.

LIMITED FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND LOSSES FROM OPERATIONS.  The Company has limited
financial resources.  It is therefore subject to all the risks generally
associated with a small business having limited financial resources.  For the
nine months ended May 31, 1997 and the years ended August 31, 1995 and 1994, the
Company has experienced losses of approximately ($31,000), ($231,000) and
($49,000), respectively.  For the year ended August 31, 1996 the Company had net
income of approximately $162,000.  There can be no assurance that the Company
will be profitable.  Continued operations after the expenditure of the Company's
existing cash reserves may require additional working capital to be generated by
profitable operations or additional financing.  There can be no assurance that
profits will continue or that external funding will be obtainable, if such a
need should arise.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY EMPLOYEES.  The business of the Company is dependent upon the
efforts of John Waldstein and certain other key management and technical
employees.  The loss or prolonged disability of such personnel could have a
significant adverse effect on the business of the Company.  The Company
presently maintains a key man life insurance policy of $1,000,000 on John
Waldstein, President and Treasurer.

LIMITED DESIGN ENGINEERING STAFF.  The Company is engaged in an industry which,
as a result of extensive research and development, introduces new products on a
regular basis.  Current competitors or new market entrants may develop new
products with features that could adversely affect the competitive position of
the Company's products.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in selecting, developing, manufacturing and marketing new products or
enhancing its existing products or that the Company will be able to respond
effectively to technological changes or product announcements by competitors.
Any failure or delay in these goals could have a material adverse effect on the
Company.

FLUCTUATIONS IN SALES AND OPERATING RESULTS.  The quarterly growth rates
recently experienced by the Company are not necessarily indicative of future
quarterly growth rates.  Operating results may also fluctuate due to factors
such as the timing of new product announcements and introductions by the
Company, its major customers and its competitors, market acceptance of new or
enhanced versions of the Company's products, changes in the product mix of
sales, changes in the relative proportions of sales among distribution channels
or among customers within each distribution channel, changes in manufacturing
costs, competitive pricing pressures, the gain or loss of significant customers,
increased research and development expenses associated with new product
introductions and general economic conditions.  A limited number of customers
have accounted for a significant portion of sales in any particular quarter.  In
addition, the Company typically operates with a relatively small backlog.  As a
result, quarterly sales and operating results generally depend on the volume,
timing of, and ability to fulfill orders received within the quarter which are
difficult to forecast.  In this regard, the Company may recognize a substantial
portion of its sales in a given quarter from sales booked and shipped in the
last weeks of that quarter.  A delay in customer orders, resulting in a shift of
product shipment from one quarter to another, could have a significant effect on
the Company's operating results.  In addition, competitive pressure on pricing
in a given quarter could adversely affect the Company's operating results, or
such price pressure over an extended period could adversely affect the Company's
long-term profitability.

The Company establishes its expenditure levels for sales and marketing and other
expenses based, in large part, on its expected future results.  As a result, if
sales fall below expectations, there would likely be a material adverse effect
on operating results because only a small portion of the Company's expenses vary
with its sales in the short-term.

CONCENTRATION OF CUSTOMERS.  Although the Company has a substantial number of
customers, a significant portion of the Company's sales are to a small number of
large customers.  This concentration of customers may cause net sales and
operating results to fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on major customers'
requirements and the timing of their orders and shipments.  Sales to the
Company's largest customer accounted for approximately 33% of the Company's
total net sales for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1996.  The Company's
agreements with its customers generally do not include minimum purchase
requirements.  There can be no assurance that the Company's major customers will
place additional orders, or that the Company will obtain orders of similar
magnitude from other customers.  The Company's operating results could be
materially and adversely affected if any present or future major customer were
to choose to reduce its level of orders, were to experience financial,
operational or other difficulties that resulted in such a reduction in orders to
the Company or were to delay paying or fail to pay the Company's receivables
from such customer.  In fiscal 1995, the Company lost a major domestic
distributor who filed for bankruptcy with accounts receivable due the Company of
approximately $80,000.

COMPETITION.  Other companies in the industry offer products in competition with
those of the Company.  Many of the companies with which the Company competes are
substantially larger, have greater resources and market a larger line of
products.  The Company expects competition to increase significantly in the
future from existing competitors and new companies that may enter the Company's
existing or future markets.  Increased competition could adversely affect the
Company's sales and profitability.  There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to continue to compete successfully with its existing competitors
or with new competitors.

LACK OF PATENT PROTECTION.  Although the Company has obtained some patent and
copyright protection for certain of its products and software, management
believes that competitors may be able to market certain products similar to
those sold by the Company.

PRODUCTION IN ASIA.  The Company presently maintains certain manufacturing molds
in Asia and has a significant amount of components for some products
manufactured in Asia.  There can be no assurance that the Asian political or
economic environment will remain sufficiently stable to allow reliable and
consistent delivery of product.

                                       11

DEPENDENCE ON SINGLE SOURCE OF SUPPLY.  The Company is dependent upon sole
source suppliers for a number of key components and parts used in the Company's
products.  There can be no assurance that these suppliers will be able to meet
the Company's future requirements for such components or that the components
will be available to the Company at favorable prices.  Any extended interruption
in the supply or significant increase in price of any such components could have
a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results in any given
period.

FOREIGN SALES.  During the year ended August 31, 1996, the Company's foreign
sales represented approximately 12% of net sales.  There may be a reduction in
the Company's foreign sales in the event of significant changes in foreign
exchange rates or political and economic instability in foreign countries.

LIMITED MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK.  There is a limited market for the Company's
common stock and there can be no assurance that even this limited market will be
sustained.  Holders of the Company's common stock may have difficulty selling
their shares or may have difficulty selling them at a favorable price.

MAINTAIN LISTING ON NASDAQ. In March 1992, the NASD established higher standards
for a company's stock to maintain its listing on NASDAQ.  The revised standards
include maintaining a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share for ten consecutive
trading days and shareholders' equity with a minimum balance of $1,000,000.
Although the Company has maintained its NASDAQ listing, the Company has, at
times, been unable to maintain the $1.00 minimum bid price criteria.

In November, 1996, the NASD proposed higher standards for a company to maintain
its stock listing on NASDAQ.  If adopted as presently proposed, the new
standards would result in the Company's common stock losing its listing on
NASDAQ.  The procedure for adopting such standards provides that there will be a
period of public comment and approval by the SEC.  It is expected that the final
standards will be effective during the third quarter of calendar 1997.

One of the presently proposed standards includes maintaining minimum net
tangible shareholders' equity of $2,000,000. As of May 31, 1997, the Company had
net tangible shareholders' equity of approximately $991,000. If this proposed
standard is adopted, the Company would not meet the standard and, unless the
Company increases its net tangible shareholders' equity to $2,000,000, the
Company's common stock would no longer be listed on NASDAQ. At the present time,
it is not possible to determine what the new standards will be, whether the
Company will be able to achieve and/or maintain the proposed standards, and
consequently, it is not possible to know whether the Company will be able to
have its common stock listed on NASDAQ. If the Company is unable to maintain its
listing on NASDAQ, holders of the Company's common stock may have additional
difficulty selling their shares or may have difficulty selling them at a
favorable price.

VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE.  The Company's stock price is subject to significant
volatility.  If revenues or earnings in any quarter fail to meet the investment
community's expectations, announcements of new products by the Company or its
competitors and other events or factors could have an immediate impact on the
Company's stock price.  The stock price may also be affected by broader market
trends unrelated to the Company's performance.
