NOTE 4.        MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATION

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
condensed financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary to present
fairly the Company's consolidated condensed financial position as of December
31, 1994 and October 31, 1994 and the consolidated condensed results of their
operations and cash flows for the two months ended December 31, 1994 and three
months ended January 31, 1994.
     

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

     On December 20, 1994 the Company elected to change the fiscal year from
October 31 to December 31.  The management discussion that follows compares the
two months ended December 31, 1994 to the three months ended January 31, 1994,
therefore the current period results are not directly comparable with those of
the prior period.
     
     Two Months Ended December 31, 1994 Compared with Three Months Ended January
     31, 1994
     
     The Company's net sales for the two months ended December 31, 1994 amounted
to $3,003,000 compared to net sales of $4,190,000 for the three months ending
January 31, 1994. Gross profit margin was 54% for the two months ended December
31, 1994 as compared to 58% for the three months ended January 31, 1994.  The
gross profit margin decrease is attributable to higher returns for discontinued
products.
     
     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the two months ended
December 31, 1994 amounted to $3,204,000 and were comprised of selling costs of
$1,132,000, advertising costs of $409,000 and general and administrative costs
of $1,663,000.  Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three
months ended January 31, 1994 amounted to $3,807,000 and were comprised of
selling costs of $1,704,000, advertising costs of $546,000 and general and
administrative costs of $1,557,000.
     
     Interest expense of $42,000 decreased $106,000 for the two months ended
December 31, 1994 over the three months ended January 31, 1994 as average
borrowing levels for the two months ended December 31, 1994 were lower than the
period ending January 31, 1994.
     
     Other income (expense) in the prior year includes $375,000 related to
certain litigation costs accrued in the three months ending January 31, 1994.
     
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
     
     The Company has experienced operating cash flow deficiencies for a number
of years and has relied upon asset sales and financing from stockholders to fund
liquidity needs. At December 31, 1994, current assets exceeded current
liabilities by $930,000 and cash required by continuing operations was
$2,202,000 for the two months ended December 31, 1994.
     
     The Company expects a continuing deficiency in cash generated from
operations in fiscal 1995. The Company plans to use the cash obtained from the
sale of assets to fund its short and long term liquidity and capital
expenditure requirements. In addition, the Company is considering various
alternatives, including but not limited to, acquiring certain product lines or
businesses, which may require the Company to raise additional financing from
stockholders, financial institutions or other sources. No assurances can be
given that the Company will obtain financing on terms acceptable to the Company.
     
     The Company has incurred significant expense in connection with the
Company's attempt to acquire Avanza Corp. ("Avanza") and the ongoing legal
challenges to Avanza's actions in opposition thereof and could be required to
incur additional expense in the future.
     
       A $1,000,000 note incurred in conjunction with the acquisition of Cooper
Development S.A. is due on April 27, 1995.
