If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively

The Company's net revenue for the three months ended December 31, 1999
(first quarter fiscal 2000), was $3,863,000, an increase of $484,000, or
14%, compared to net revenue of $3,379,000 for the first quarter of the
previous fiscal year. Net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2000
increased by $184,000 to $131,000, or $.06 per share, from a net loss of
$53,000, or $(.03) per share, in the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
Increased revenue and a more favorable product mix are the primary reasons
for the increase in net income.
