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

GENERAL

Structural Instrumentation, Inc. - SI - manufactures mobile and stationary
weighing systems for the transportation industry, vehicle fleet information
systems and force measurement devices. 

The three general types of electronic weighing systems include: on-board
weighing systems installed in the frame or suspension system of a vehicle,
semi-permanent industrial axle scales, and portable platform scales used both by
weight enforcement agencies and general transportation companies.

Fleet information systems are made up of on-board vehicle and base operation
hardware and software that collect and report operating information used to
manage and improve the performance of fleet operations. Specific benefits from
system utilization include increased driver and truck efficiency, reduced
maintenance costs, better safety records, reduced manual report generation and
improved customer service.

Force measurement devices are electromechanical components that convert a
physical force to an electrical signal. When matched with microprocessor
controlled digital electronics, force measurement devices measure forces such as
pressure, weight, mass and torque. Commercially, force measurement devices are
used in electronic scales and a wide range of machinery and equipment. 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales

     Net sales increased to $2,701,023 for the quarter ended October 31, 1995
     from $2,042,410 for the same period last year. This is an increase of
     $658,613 or 32% over the prior year's first quarter results.

     The sales increase, is the result of very strong sales in the U.S. forestry
     market, particularly in the southeast, a strong Canadian forestry industry
     and a continuation of the company's growth in the US waste market. Sales to
     international markets outside of Canada decreased slightly.

     While continued sales growth is expected during the last nine months of    
     fiscal 1996, it is unlikely that the rate of growth experienced during the
     quarter ended October 31, 1995 will be sustained for the balance of        
     the fiscal year.

Gross Profit

     Gross profit for the quarter was $1,300,332 compared to $987,588 in the
     first quarter last year. This is an increase of $312,744 or 32% over the
     prior quarter's results. Gross profit as a percentage of sales remained the
     same from quarter to quarter at 48%.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

     SG & A expenses increased to $785,806 for the quarter ended October 31,
     1995 from $679,874 for the same period last year. This is an increase of
     $105,932 or 16% over the prior year's first quarter. SG & A expenses as a
     percentage of revenue decreased to 29% down from 33% in the same quarter of
     last year. The increased expenses are the result of higher compensation
     costs related to the increased sales volume and increased fees for
     professional services and debt collection expense.

Research and Development and Engineering Expenses

     RD & E expenditures increased to $214,695 for the quarter ended October 31,
     1995 from $137,754 for the same period last year. This is an increase of
     $76,941 or 56% over the prior year's first quarter. RD & E expenses as a
     percentage of revenues increased to 8% from 7% in the same quarter of last
     year. The higher spending reflects a higher rate of investment in new
     product development as well as increased product extensions for existing
     product lines. The Company expects to continue its aggressive product
     development program into the near term.

Intangibles

     The amortization of intangibles decreased to $22,596 for the quarter ended
     October 31, 1995 from $37,618 for the same period last year. This is a
     decrease of $15,022 or 40% from the prior year's first quarter. The lower
     expense reflects the completion of amortization for non-compete agreements
     associated with an acquisition.

Interest Expense and Other Income

     Interest expense decreased to $18,377 for the quarter ended October 31,
     1995 from $32,419 for the same period last year. This is a decrease of
     $14,042 or 43% from the prior year's first quarter. The lower interest
     expense is the direct result of reduced borrowings by the company. Other
     income increase to $28,389 from $15,450 for the same period last year. This
     is an increase of $12,939 or 84% from the prior year's first quarter. The
     largest contribution to the increase was the partial recovery of a
     previously written off debt.

Income Tax Expense

     Income tax expense increased to $110,000 for the quarter ended October 31,
     1995 from $25,000 for the same period last year. This is an increase of
     $85,000 or 340% from the prior year's first quarter. The increased expense
     reflects the higher pretax income recorded in the current quarter and a
     higher effective tax rate. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended
     October 31, 1995 increased from the same period last year due to the full
     utilization of tax credits now consumed. The effective tax rate for the
     quarter exceeds the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate of 34% due to
     the amortization of intangible assets which expenses are not deductible for
     income tax purposes and due to state income taxes.

INFLATION

Historically, the impact of inflation has been negligible, as the Company has
been able to offset the effects through efficiency and price increases.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's line of credit of $2,000,000 which matured November 29, 1995, was
renewed with U.S. Bank of Washington effective November 30, 1995. The new line
of credit was renewed for $2,000,000 and is for a two year term. The new
agreement included more favorable terms for the company than the prior
agreement. As of October 31, 1995 the Company had no outstanding borrowings
under the line of credit. 

The Company believes cash flow from operations and the funds available under its
bank facility will be sufficient to meet the Company's working capital needs.

PUT OPTION OBLIGATIONS

The liability associated with the company's agreements to repurchase 77,000
shares of the Company's stock upon exercise of the remaining put options, is
included in liability section of the Company's balance sheet as of October 31,
1995.
