number of shares outstanding. The effect of common stock equivalents on earnings
per share is not material.  Future shares have not been included in a fully  
diluted  earnings  per  share   calculation  as  their  effect  would  be
anti-dilutive.

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


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Net  sales  for  the  first   quarter  of  fiscal  1996   increased  by
2% to $7.0 million  compared to $6.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 
1995. The sales  increase came  primarily from the medical  segment of the 
business.  Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 1996  increased by 84%
to $280,000 ($.09 per share) from $152,000 ($.05 per share) in the first quarter
of fiscal 1995.  The increase in net income  resulted  from the  combination  of
higher  medical  sales and lower  selling  expenses  during the first quarter of
fiscal 1996 than in the first quarter of 1995.

         The  Company's  medical  sales  increased  by 9% to $3.5 million in the
first  quarter  this year from $3.2  million in the same  quarter  last year due
mainly to an increase in unit sales of foam  products and dynamic mattresses.  
Management  expects that sales of medical products will be higher in fiscal 
1996 than in fiscal 1995.

         Sales of consumer  products during the first quarter rose by 6% to $1.3
million from $1.2 million in the same period last year. Most of the increase was
due to higher  unit sales  volume of consumer  foam  mattress  pads.  Management
expects that consumer  foam sales will increase  during the next two quarters of
fiscal 1996 primarily due to higher sales of TerryFoam products.

         Contract packaging sales decreased 8% to $1.5 million from $1.6 million
in the first  quarter of fiscal 1996 due to a lower volume of consumer  contract
packaging  products.  Management  expects that contract  packaging sales will be
slightly higher in fiscal 1996 compared to fiscal 1995.

         Industrial  foam product sales decreased by 12% in the first quarter of
fiscal 1996 to $715,000 from $812,000 in the same quarter last fiscal year.  The
decrease  was  primarily  the  result of lower  sales to an  existing  customer.
Industrial  foam sales in fiscal  1996 are  expected to be slightly higher than
in fiscal 1995.

         The Company's gross profit increased by 6% to $2.1 million in the first
quarter of fiscal  1996 from $2.0  million in the first  quarter  last year.  In
addition,  the gross profit margin percentage increased to 29.7% from 28.7%. The
increases in gross profit level and gross margin  percent were due to the higher
sales volume  during the first  quarter of fiscal 1996 and to lower 
manufacturing costs in the consumer and contract packaging segments. Management
expects that the Company's gross margin percentage for

                                        8

<PAGE>



fiscal 1996 will be slightly higher than that of fiscal 1995.

         Sales and marketing  expenses decreased by $55,000 (5%) to $1.1 million
in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to the same quarter last year.  The
decrease was due  primarily to lower  selling  expenses in the medical  segment.
Total sales and  marketing  expenses for fiscal 1996 are expected to be slightly
higher than those of fiscal 1995.

         General and  administrative  expenses  decreased by $19,000 (3%) in the
first  quarter of fiscal  1996  compared  to the first  quarter of fiscal  1995.
General and  administrative  expenses for the full 1996 fiscal year are expected
to be slightly higher than those of fiscal 1995.

Non-operating  income increased by 41% to $90,000 in the first quarter of fiscal
1996 as compared to $64,000 in the same quarter  last year.  The majority of the
increase  was due to higher interest income from investments and to  higher  
royalty  income  received  on sales of a  patented syringe licensed to Becton 
Dickinson. Management expects non-operating income to increase slightly in 
fiscal 1996.

                  During the first  quarter of fiscal  1996,  the  Company  paid
dividends  of  $81,000,  or 29% of net  income.  This  payment  represented  one
quarterly dividend of $.025 per share.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company  generated cash from operations of  approximately  $191,000
during the first quarter of fiscal 1996. In addition,  working capital  expanded
by $230,000 or 3%, during the three months ended December 30, 1995. The increase
in working  capital  was caused  primarily  by lower  accrued  liabilities.  The
Company's current ratio increased to 4.3 at December 30, 1995 from 3.8 at fiscal
year end 1995.

         Accounts receivable, net of allowances,  declined 8% to $4.1 million at
the end of the first  quarter of 1996 as compared to $4.5  million at the end of
fiscal 1995. All of the Company's accounts receivable are unsecured.

         Inventories  increased by $306,000, or 11%, during the first quarter of
fiscal 1996 to $3.1 million.  The increase reflects normal monthly  fluctuations
in raw material  and finished  goods  inventories.  Management  expects a slight
decrease in inventory levels during fiscal 1996.

         Net property and equipment decreased by $65,000, or 1%, during

                                        9

<PAGE>



the first three months of fiscal 1996. The change resulted primarily from normal
depreciation expense and capital expenditures. Management expects that capital 
expenditures during fiscal 1996 will be higher than those of fiscal 1995.

         Goodwill, net of accumulated  amortization,  increased by $219,000. The
change was primarily  due to the Company's  issuance in October of 50,171 shares
of its common stock at an  approximate  market  value of $237,000 as  additional
purchase  price  pursuant  to  the  agreement  by  which  the  Company  acquired
Healthflex in February 1992. Other assets increased  slightly to $2.0 million as
compared to $1.9 million at fiscal year end 1995.

         The  Company's  trade  accounts  payable  declined  by $91,000 or 5% as
compared to fiscal year end 1995.  Accrued  and sundry  liabilities  declined by
$322,000 or 24% because of declines in accrued  compensation  and  property  tax
expense.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

         Inflation was not a significant factor for the Company during the first
quarter of fiscal  1996.  Higher  inflation  rates  could  impact the Company  
through  higher raw  material  costs.  The Company's  profit  margin  could be 
adversely  affected  to the extent that the Company is unable to pass along to 
its customers any increased costs.

         On February 8, 1996, the Company acquired the assets of Embracing 
Concepts, Inc., a privately held manufacturer of therapeutic seating cushions 
headquartered in Rochester, New York. The purchase price was approximately 
$590,000 and was funded from the Company's existing cash reserves. In 1995, 
Embracing Concepts had annual sales of approximately $440,000.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

The Company and its  subsidiary  are from time to time parties to various  legal
actions arising in the normal course of business.  However,  management believes

or pending  against the  Company  that,  if  determined adversely,  would have 
a material  adverse  effect on the  business or financial position of the 
Company.
