Note 6 - Net Income per Common Share

    Net income per Common Share is calculated by dividing net income after
reduction for dividends on Preferred Stock, if any, by the weighted average
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the three-month period ended
December 31, 1998.  There are no dilutive or potentially dilutive securities
outstanding at December 31, 1998.

Note 7 - New Accounting Pronouncements

In September, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS
No. 133"), which is effective for the Company's fiscal year ending September 30,
2000.  This Statement requires all entities to record all derivative instruments
in the financial statements as either an asset or a liability measured at fair
value.  In addition, SFAS No. 133 specifies new methods of accounting for
hedging transactions. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 133 is not expected to be
material to the consolidated financial statements or notes to consolidated
financial statements.

Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
           Results of Operations.


    Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters
discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements
which involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, economic,
competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting the Company's
operations, markets, products, services and prices, and other factors discussed
in the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

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

    The Company had working capital of $3,624,532 as of December 31, 1998, as
compared to working capital of $3,157,049 as of September 30, 1998.  The
increase in the Company's working capital was due primarily to the Company's
earnings. The Company had cash on hand as of December 31, 1998 of $1,234,593, as
compared to $1,200,005 as of September 30, 1998.

    On March 27, 1997, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the
"Agreement") with Fleet Bank, N.A. ("Fleet").  The Credit Agreement provides for
a $2,000,000 revolving line of credit ("Line of Credit") to the Company. The
Line of Credit is for a period of two years, and upon the expiration thereof,
unless such Line of Credit is extended, the outstanding principal amount then
outstanding, if any, is due and payable.  Interest on the Line of Credit is
payable monthly in arrears.

    Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Line of Credit will
accrue, at the Company's option, at Fleet's prime rate, as announced from time
to time, or the London Interbank Offer Rate ("LIBOR") plus 2%.  The Line of
Credit is secured by all of the Company's assets, pursuant to the terms of
certain security agreements, dated as of March 27, 1997.  To the extent the Line
of Credit is not utilized by the Company, the Company is obligated to pay an
annual commitment fee of  .1875% for the average unused portion of the Line of
Credit.  At December 31, 1998, no amounts were outstanding under the Line of
Credit.  The Company is required under the Agreement to adhere to certain
affirmative and negative covenants, and borrowings under the Line of Credit is
limited to 80% of eligible accounts receivables and 50% of the inventory of the
Company, as set forth in the Agreement.

    The Company intends to fund its operations in the near term from cash on
hand, from cash flow generated from operations, and from the existing, unused
line of credit from Fleet, as described above (which unused line of credit
equaled $2,000,000 at December 31, 1998).  Except as described herein, including
the Notes hereto, the Company is unaware of any other material commitments which
may adversely affect its liquidity in the near term.

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

Three Months Ended December 31, 1998, as compared to the Three Months Ended
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
December 31, 1997
- -----------------

    The Company, on a consolidated basis, generated net sales of $5,169,760 for
the three- month period ended December 31, 1998, as compared to net sales of
$4,505,528 for the same period of the prior year.

    The overall approximate 15% increase in sales over the prior year's quarter
was due to an approximate 14% increase in sales at the Company's Jackburn
subsidiary, and by an approximate 15% increase at its Setterstix subsidiary.
The increase in sales at both subsidiaries were due mainly to increases in
volume due to higher demand for product from existing customers.

    Gross profit was $1,897,866 (approximate 37% gross profit margin) for the
three months ended December 31, 1998, as compared to $1,604,920 (approximate 36%
gross profit margin) for the same period of the previous year.  The increase in
gross profit was due directly to higher sales volume.  The increase in gross
profit margin was due to the increased sales at the Company's Setterstix
subsidiary, which has higher gross profit margins than the Company's Jackburn
subsidiary.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,215,387 and $935,906
for the three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The
increase of $279,481 (30%) was due primarily to higher selling expenses as a
result of higher sales at the Company's Jackburn and Setterstix subsidiaries,
higher management costs due to increased incentive compensation, and expenses
incurred by the Company as a result of is proposed Merger, as described in Note
2 hereto.

    Interest expense was $0 and $38,924 for the three months ended December 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively.  This decrease was due to repayment of all
remaining outstanding debt at September 30, 1998.

    The Company generated net income of $387,849 for the three months ended
December 31, 1998, as compared to net income of $360,785 for the same period of
the prior year.  The approximate 7% increase in net income was the result of
higher sales and gross profit, partially offset by higher selling, general and
administrative expenses and lower interest expense.

Management Information Systems
- ------------------------------

    The Company believes that advanced information processing is essential to
maintaining its competitive position.  The Company participates in the
electronic data interchange program maintained by its larger customers.  This
program allows the Company to receive customer orders, provide advanced shipping
notices and track orders on-line from the time such orders are 

                                     - 11 -
<PAGE>
 
placed through delivery. The Company is also able to notify certain of its
customers' warehouses, in advance, as to shipments. The Company currently is
upgrading its management information systems, which it expects to complete in
early 1999, to ensure proper processing of transactions relating to the year
2000 and beyond. The Company continues to evaluate appropriate courses of
corrective action, including replacement of certain systems. The Company does
not expect the costs associated with ensuring year 2000 compliance to have a
material effect on its financial position or results of operations. All costs
associated with year 2000 compliance are being funded with cash flow generated
from operations and are being expensed as incurred. Although the Company
believes that the information systems of its major customers and vendors
(insofar as they relate to the Company's business) comply with year 2000
requirements, there can be no assurance that the year 2000 issue will not affect
the information systems of such customers and vendors as they relate to the
Company's business, or that any such impact on such customers' and vendors'
information systems would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition or results of operations.
