PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS
General
From incorporation in Texas in June 1983 as a public company until
December 1990, Cabre Corp, then known as K Med Centers, Inc.,
managed outpatient medical centers throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth
Metroplex. The company ceased operations in December 1990, but continued
as an inactive public "shell" corporation and reorganized in the
state of Delaware on December 26, 1991. On January 24, 1992 Cabre Corp
acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Antenna Products
Corporation in an exchange of stock.
On November 1, 1993 Cabre acquired Audile Inc. in an exchange of
stock. Cabre sold the operation to Audile employees in February 1995,
and in May, 1995, based on defaulted payments on notes, wrote off
remaining investments.
On November 1, 1993 Cabre Corp established Thirco, Inc. On
November 14, 1994 Cabre formed Metal Finishing Corp and on November
30, 1994 purchased the assets of Edd's Metal Finishng Corp for a
combination of cash and deferred notes. Cabre Corp operates as a
holding company with Antenna Products Corporation, Metal Finishing
Corp, and Thirco, Inc. as its current operating subsidiaries. Cabre
Corp has no other business activity. Cabre Corp's address is 1209
Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801. Telephone Number, (302)658-7581.
Antenna Products Corporation
Antenna Products Corporation was incorporated in Texas in 1984 to
continue business began in 1972 and operated as a closely held
"C" corporation until January 24, 1992. Thereafter, Antenna Products
has operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of Cabre Corp . Antenna
Products address is 101 S.E. 25th Avenue, Mineral Wells, Texas 76067.
The telephone number is (817) 325-3301.
Antenna Products' principal business is to design and
manufacture standard and custom antennas, support structures, and
accessories. The company's principal products generally relate to the high
frequency (HF), very high frequency (VHF), and ultra high frequency
(UHF) communication frequency spectrums. With a diversity of
communication and navigation aid products, Antenna Products'market
extends from long range communication circuits to short range
tactical communication lines and includes shipboard applications as
well as ground to air navigation and landing aids. Examples of
Antenna Products' wide variety of products include ground to air
collinear antennas, instrument landing antennas and towers, fixed
system multi-port antenna arrays, tactical quick erect antennas
and masts, shipboard antenna tilting devices, transport pallets,
surveillance antennas, antenna rotators, positioners and controls,
and high power broadcast baluns.
Antenna Products' customer base is primarily government and
government prime contractor focused, although a limited industrial
and commercial market exists. Antenna Products' market is
international in scope. The company currently focuses on exploiting the
domestic market and has a limited amount of foreign sales. The specialized
needs of the company's customers and the technology required to meet those
needs change constantly. Accordingly, the company stresses its engineering,
installation, service and other support capabilities. The
company uses its own sales and engineering staffs to service its
principal markets. Many of the company's contracts are large relative
to total annual sales volume and therefore the composition of the
customer base is different year to year. In 1995 the U. S.
Government was the single largest customer, and accounted for 26% of
the sales volume. APTI totaled 26% of sales, Marconi
Communications contributed 11%, and Litton Data Systems 10%. Orders
for equipment in some of these product categories are in backlog and,
therefore, the U.S. Government and Marconi Communications are expected to be
major clients again in 1996.
Antenna Products is one of many suppliers of antennas and related
manufacturing services to the government and government prime
contractors. Antenna Products competes on the basis of cost
and product performance in a market with no dominant supplier. Due to
fixedprice contracts and pre-defined contract specifications prevalent
within this market, the company competes primarily on the basis of
its ability to provide state-of-the-art solutions in the
technologically demanding marketplace while maintaining its
competitive pricing.
Because most manufacturing requirements are established on a
contract basis, the majority of the inventory is work in process. Less
than 10% of total inventory is maintained in stock for delivery to
customers. Some raw materials are kept on hand to support customer delivery
schedules. Antenna Products performs work for the United States
Government primarily under fixed-price prime contracts and
subcontracts. Under fixed-price contracts, Antenna Products realizes
any benefit or detriment occasioned by lower or higher costs of
performance.
Antenna Products is subject to certain risks common to all companies
which derive a portion of their revenues from the United States
government. These risks include rapid changes in technology, changes in
levels of government spending, and possible cost overruns. Recognition
of profits on major contracts is based upon estimates of final
performance which may change as contracts progress. Contract prices
and costs incurred are subject to Government Procurement
Regulations, and costs may be questioned by the Government and are
subject to disallowance. United States Government contracts contain a
provision that they may be terminated at any time for the
convenience of the Government. In such event, the contractor is
entitled to recover allowable costs plus any profits earned to the
date of termination. Collections are generally set in accordance with
federal acquisition standards which require payment in accordance with
"Net 30" terms after acceptance of goods. The company is not
directly regulated by any governmental agency in the United States.
Most of Antenna Products' customers, and the antenna and tower
industries in general, are subject to meeting various government
standards. These performance standards necessitate Antenna
Products' ability to produce antenna designs which can be updated
to conform to customer requirements in a changing regulatory
environment. These regulations have not adversely affected
operations.
Antenna Products is committed to reinvesting from 2% to 5% of
sales in research and development projects, and bid and proposal
activities. The mix of expenditures between the two areas in any
given year is a function of the demand for new independently developed
innovative systems and the level of requirements solicited. In
1995 Antenna Products invested 5.0% of sales to independent research and
development (R&D). The level of expenditures as a ratio to sales is
expected to decrease in 1996. The level of expenditures for R&D in
1994 and 1993 were 2.3% of sales and 1.2% of sales, respectively.
The company received one patent in fiscal year 1994 and will
continue to patent innovations unique to the trade. The company
however does not consider patents to be material to its
operations nor would the loss of any patents adversely affect
operations.
Metal Finishing Corp
Cabre Corp's subsidiary, Metal Finishing Corp, a Texas Corporation,
purchased the assets of Edd's Metal Finishes Corp., a Texas
Corporation, on November 30, 1994. Edd's Metal Finishes Corp had
been a vendor to Antenna Products Corporation (a subsidiary of Cabre)
for over ten years. Metal Finishing Corp operates in Grand
Prairie, Texas. Metal Finishing Corp offers a wide range of metal
finishes and surface enhancements. Industries serviced range from
medical, electronics, oil patch, fastener, packaging, automotive
to commercial as well as aerospace and defense contracted work. Metal
Finishing is the chemical science of electrolytically depositing thin layers
of metals such as silver, zinc, cadmium, nickel or copper to base materials
such as steel, aluminum, brass etc. This process is also more
commonly known as "plating" and the deposits created are most often
utilized for added corrosion and wear resistance as well as their
ability to meet the required aesthetic values. Metal Finishing
competes on the basis of cost and quality of service in a market with no
dominant provider. Due to the nature of the service provided, inventory
consists of small amounts of chemicals and metals.
Thirco, Inc.
Thirco, Inc was formed on November 1, 1993 as a Delaware company
to purchase and lease equipment and facilities to the other operating
units of Cabre. The primary lease arrangements are with Antenna
Products. Thirco will occasionally assist in servicing the banking
needs of Cabre's operating units. Since all activity is internal to
Cabre and its operating subsidiaries, financial data is consolidated
with Cabre. Thirco does not intend to engage in any outside business
transactions.
Seasonality
Cabre's businesses are not dependent on seasonal factors.
Backlog
The backlog of orders on July 31, 1995 at Antenna Products
amounted to approximately $6.1 million. Backlog of orders at July 31,
1994 was approximately $11.9 million. About 90% of the current
backlog will be delivered in the 1995 fiscal year. As a service
provider Metal Finishing has no recorded backlog.
Raw Material Source And Supply
Cabre's operating subsidiaries' principal raw materials are steel,
aluminum, other metal alloys, plastic and composite tubing, hardware,
electrical wire, wire rope, plating chemicals, and electronic or
electro mechanical components. The materials are commonly available
from numerous sources, including local distributors in quantities
sufficient to meet the needs of the subsidiaries. The availability
and supply of raw materials is not considered to be a problem for
Antenna Products or Metal Finishing.
Employees
As of July 31, 1995, Cabre employed 114 full time employees. Antenna
Products had 102 employees and Metal Finishing had 12 employees. 25
were employed in administrative functions, 17 in engineering and
support roles, and 72 in operational categories. None of the company's
employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements. As a matter
of policy, the company seeks to maintain good relations with employees
and believes that such relations are beneficial.
Foreign Sales
Antenna Products' sales in international markets are primarily to
foreign governments or prime contractors to foreign governments, and
as such represents a small percentage of the overall Company annual
volume. The level of profits from and the commitment of assets to
this portion of the business is no greater or no less than that of
other market segments. International sales for 1995, 1994, and 1993
were 5.5%, 4.5%, and 6.2%, respectively, of total sales.
Item 2. PROPERTIES
Antenna Products Corporation, owns a ten acre industrial site located
along US Highway 180 in Mineral Wells, Texas. The facility consists of
a main building containing 60,000 square feet of manufacturing area and
10,000 square feet of administrative and engineering offices;
a second building containing 20,000 square feet of manufacturing and
shipping area; and a newly completed 15,000 square foot building
utilized for receiving and material control. Three additional
auxiliary buildings which total in excess of 13,350 square feet are
utilized for chemical etching, painting and storage. The facilities
are in good condition and with the current complement of machinery and
equipment are suitable and more than adequate to meet production
requirements. Dependent on the mix of product types in process in any
given time period, the Company could potentially more than double output
with current and planned plant, property and equipment. Antenna Products
carries a bank note on the manufacturing facility that is amortized over
twenty years and expires in the year 2011.
Metal Finishing owns a 13,000 square foot facility in Grand
Prairie, Texas with state of the art plating equipment and a fully
closed loop waste water treatment system. The facilities are in good
condition with ability to increase capacity by 50 to 100% by adding
additional employees. Metal Finishing has a note on the plating
facility that is amortized over 10 years. The note held by the prior
owner expires in the year 2004.
Thirco owns a fifty acre test site in Mineral Wells, Texas.
The site includes three buildings with 28,000 square feet of
space. The space is currently set up and being leased to Antenna
Products for test activity with some storage of inventory.
The two larger buildings, if needed, are suitable with rearrangement and some
conversion expense, for additional manufacturing utilization.

Results of Operation
Cabre Corp's on-going operation is that of its subsidiaries, Antenna
Products Corporation, Metal Finishing Corp, and Thirco, Inc.
as previously discussed in item 1. The management discussion
presented in this item relates to the operations of subsidiary
units and the associated Consolidated Financials as presented in
item 7.
Year ended May 31, 1995 ("1995") Compared with Year Ended May 31, 1994 ("1994")
Antenna Products Corporation
Net sales increased by $0.5 million or 4% to $12.9 million. The
delivery of two major contracts, an antenna system for APTI
and tilting mechanisms for the US Navy, accounted for the
increase in volume. Orders and deliveries of various broadcast
system components to Marconi also contributed to the higher level
of activities in the subsidiary. Orders were down from prior year
with $8.8 million of bookings in the current fiscal year. The ending
backlog of firm orders at year end was $5.1 million. Orders and
backlog are expected to increase in 1996 due to the large number of
bids now outstanding. Gross margin rates increased to 26.1% in 1995
from 23.4% in 1994 as a result of having fewer development contracts
in house in the current year. Selling and administrative expenses
increased to $2,588 thousand less intercompany in 1995 from $1,930
thousand in 1994 as aresult of higher levels of R&D and proposal
efforts combined with increased marketing activity. R&D activity reached
5.0% of sales or $640 thousand, principally in the advancement of telescoping
mast designs and the development of a series of fixed system hf antennas. A
A new telephone system and the upgrade of computer systems in
manufacturing added to the increase in expense. Net interest expense
increased to $484 thousand from $257 thousand, due to higher
interest rates and higher loan balances. Higher levels of work in
process inventories and slower payments from the US Government
contributed to higher loan balances. This trend is expected to
continue throughout 1996. Net profit before taxes for the subsidiary
was $211 thousand or 1.6% of sales in 1995 compared to $650 thousand
or 5.2% of sales in 1994. The lower performance in 1995 is
attributed to the higher expenses and interest as noted.
Metal Finishing Corp
Metal Finishing was incorporated on November 14, 1994 and having
purchased the assets of a former vendor of Antenna Products,
commenced operation on December 1, 1994. All financial data
represents six months of operation without comparative period data.
Net sales for the operation was $267 thousand. Due to certain
one time expenses related to improving the quality of the plating
process the subsidiary experienced an operating loss of ($53
thousand). The subsidiary operation is expected to be profitable in 1996.
Cabre Corp consolidated sales and income from continuing operations
were $13.1 million and $142 thousand respectively in 1995 compared
to $12.3 million and $463 thousand respectively in 1994. Net loss
for 1995 was $337 thousand compared to a net profit of $339 thousand for
1994. The loss from the discontinued Audile operation and the loss
from the subsequent sale of Audile totaled $479 thousand. Audile,
Inc. after more than one year of operation failed to enter the audio
market with its advanced audio correction speaker system. Significant
development and marketing expenses were being incurred and, in
February 1995, Cabre sold the operation to the employees and former
owners for a return of Cabre stock and a series of notes. In April
1995 Audile defaulted on its note payment and Cabre subsequently
seized the assets of Audile and sold at auction miscellaneous audio
and computer equipment. All investments in Audile have been written
down in the 1995 period.
Year Ended May 31, 1994 ("1994") Compared With Year Ended May 31, 1993 ("1993")
Net sales increased $2.9 million or 31% to $12.3 million
primarily as a result of deliveries of antenna and antenna structural
equipment to the US Navy, Litton Data Systems, and Wilcox. Orders for the year
were $10.3 million compared to $9.4 million in 1993. Gross margin
rates decreased from 25.0% in 1993 to 23.4% in 1994. In 1994, the company
delivered a number of large programs at low margins, as well as a
government development contract which was performed at a loss.
Selling and administrative expenses increased from $1,716 thousand in
1993 to $1,930 thousand in 1994. Expenses increased due to an increase
in personnel and marketing activity. Research and development expense
increased to $285 thousand compared to $111 thousand in 1993. Net
interest expense was $235 thousand compared to $231 thousand in 1993.
Net income for 1994 was $349 thousand compared to $290 thousand in
1993. The increase is attributed to the increased revenues.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Funds generated from company operations are the major internal sources
of liquidity and are supplemented by funds derived from capital
markets, principally bank facilities. The company has available for
the funding of its operations a $4.0 million revolving demand line of
credit which expires in September 1995. As of July 31, 1995, $400 thousand was
available and unused under its revolving line of credit.
Net cash flows from operations was negative $977 thousand in 1995
compared to a positive $46 thousand in 1994. The major component of
the negative cash flow was an increase in inventory of $887
thousand. WorkIn-Process at year end was higher than previous years
as a result of production efforts for delivery of tilt mechanisms to the US
Navy early in 1996. Accounts payable were also higher than normal as a
result of purchases of materials to support the production requirements
of tilt mechanisms and broadcast systems for another large customer. Cash
and cash equivalents were $154 thousand, $500 thousand lower than the prior
year as a result of the investment losses in the now discontinued Audile
operation.
Capital expenditures for 1995 were $1.0 million for manufacturing equipment,
upgraded facilities, and computer hardware and software. The largest
components were for Antenna Products with four pieces of CNC machinery
at $353 thousand, a new 15,000 square foot building used for incoming
receiving and storage at $274 thousand, and two design stations for
engineering at $132 thousand. With modern tools in place and with the
upgrades provided to both the Antenna Products and Metal Finishing
facilities, the company intends to limit its 1996 capital program to less
than $200 thousand. Bank lines are already established to support
equipment purchases that may be required. The current facilities and
equipment that are at hand in both operations are currently deemed
sufficient to meet the expectations of required 1996 deliveries.
The company's revolving credit facilities are regulated under a
borrowing base formula using inventories and accounts receivable
as collateral. The interest rate is established as one percentage point
over Wall Street prime and subject to a loan agreement with
restrictive covenants. The most restrictive financial covenant requires
Antenna Products to maintain $1.6 million in tangible net worth and
$1.2 million of working capital. At year end Antenna Products' had equity
of $1.8 million and working capital of $1.3 million. The agreement
is renewable in September 1995. The company anticipates renewal of this
credit line and has projected that these credit limits are sufficient
to cover the financing needs of the company in the coming year.
The company has a long term bank note for $1.2 million collateralized by
the Antenna Products plant, property, and equipment. The current
balance is $1.0 million with payments amortized over 20 years ending in 2011.
The interest is variable at one half point over prime interest
rate with the note supported by an FmHA guarantee under the federal
guidelines of a rural business industry loan. Antenna Products
also has an $800 thousand note to a principal stockholder on which it pays
interest at the prime interest rate. The commencement of principal
payments are prohibited under the terms of the bank note until the bank
debt is first paid.
The company has a long term bank note for $450 thousand collateralized by
Metal Finishing equipment and machinery. Interest is variable at
one point over prime with payments amortized over ten years ending in 2004.
The balance at year end was $437 thousand. The company also has a
note to the prior owner of the Metal Finishing operation for $340 thousand
collateralized by the Metal Finishing facility. Interest is variable at
one point over prime with payments amortized over ten years ending in 2004.
The balance on the note at year end was $323 thousand.
The company does not expect any changes in payments or other
provisions of the loan agreements now in place.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.Business
The Company operates as a "Holding" company with Antenna Products

and Metal Finishing Corp. are operating subsidiaries with Thirco
serving as an equipment leasing company to Cabre's operating units.
Antenna Products Corporation designs, manufactures and markets
antenna systems, towers, and communications accessories worldwide
for the U.S. Government, both military and civil agencies, and prime
contractors representing Antenna Products principal customers.
Metal Finishing Corp performs a wide range of metal finishes and
surface enhancements to industries ranging from medical,
electronics, oil & gas, fastener, packaging, and automotive as well

Litton Data Systems 10% 28%
* less than 10%
2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances
and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Sales and Contract Revenues and Related Costs
Sales and major production contract revenues, and related costs, are
recorded as completed units are shipped (unit price method).
Estimated losses on production contracts are reported in full at
such time as the contract estimate indicates a loss.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or
market, net of any applicable progress payments.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated by the
straight-line method over the expected useful lives of the assets.
Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are charged to
income, and significant improvements are capitalized. The cost of
assets sold or abandoned and the related accumulated depreciation
are eliminated from the accounts and the net amount, less proceeds
from disposal, is charged or credited to income.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses.
Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used.
Income Taxes
The Company has adopted, effective June 1, 1993, the method of
accounting for income taxes pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS
109) which requires a change from the deferred method to the asset
and liability method of computing deferred income taxes. The
objective of the asset and liability method is to establish deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the
financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company's assets
and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when
such amounts are realized or settled. The change had no effect on
the Company's financial statements as of or for the year ended May
31, 1994.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are charged to operations when
incurred and are included in operating expenses. The amounts
charged for the years ended May 31, 1995 and 1994 were $640,453 and
$284,630, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents
include cash and certificates of deposit with maturities of less
than three months.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over fair value of
tangible assets acquired in the Audile acquisition (Note 3).
Goodwill is being amortized on the straight line basis over five
years.
Shares, Per Share Data, Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Reverse Stock
Split
Earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss)
available for common stock by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the year. Weighted average shares
outstanding were 934,298 and 898,263 for the years ended May 31,
1995 and 1994, respectively. All share and per share information
herein has been retroactively adjusted for a 1 for 20 reverse stock
split approved by shareholders on June 14, 1994.
3. Acquisitions and Sale of Subsidiary
The Company, in an exchange of stock, acquired Audile, Inc. on
November 1, 1993. Cabre issued 108,649 shares of its common stock
for all of the outstanding shares of Audile, Inc. Audile, as a
wholly owned subsidiary of Cabre, operates in the consumer
electronics, entertainment, and interactive multi-media markets.
The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly,
the operations of Audile have been incorporated in the accompanying
financial statements from the date of acquisition. The shares
issued were valued at $352,915 and the purchase price has been
allocated principally to goodwill. Pro forma information as
if the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of each year
is not presented since Audile has had no revenues and its operations
are not material to the Company's consolidated results of operations.
Audile has had no sales to date.
The Company sold Audile to one of its former shareholders in
February 1995 for a note of $592,000 and 36,943 shares of Company
common stock valued at $83,122. In May 1995, the Company foreclosed
on the note and repossessed the collateral, subsequently selling the
repossessed assets for approximately $19,000. The Company has
reflected the operations of Audile in the accompanying financial
statements as a discontinued operation. The loss from sale of
discontinued operations was recognized in the Company's fourth
fiscal quarter.
On November 30, 1994, the Company's subsidiary, Metal Finishing
Corp, purchased the assets of Edd's Metal Finishes Corp. for cash of
$315,000 and a note payable to the seller of $340,000. The
acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase and accordingly,
the operations of the acquired business have been included in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements since the date of
acquisition. Pro forma information as if the acquisition had taken
place at the beginning of each year is not presented since the
operations are not material to the Company's consolidated results of
operations.

monthly at the prime rate plus 1% until September 30, 1995, when any
unpaid principal and interest shall be due.

--------- ----------
$ 258,721 $ 104,105

Taxable temporary differences arise from differences between
depreciation of property, plant and equipment for tax and financial
purposes. Deductible temporary differences result from differences
in timing of deduction of certain expenses, principally warranties,
vacation accruals and group insurance and from an inventory
valuation allowance for financial statement purposes.
10. Profit Sharing Plan
The Company has an employee profit sharing plan under Section 401(k)
of the Internal Revenue Code. All employees with a minimum of one
year of employment are eligible to participate. Employees may
contribute to the plan up to 20% of their salary with a maximum of
$9,240 in 1995 and $8,994 in 1994. The Company will match employee
contributions for an amount up to 3% of each employee's salary if
certain earnings requirements are met. Contributions are invested
at the direction of the employee in one or more funds. Company
contributions vest after three years of service. Company
contributions amounted to $62,065 and $49,077 for the years ended
May 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
11.Segment Information
The Company has historically operated in one business segment, the
manufacture of antenna systems, antenna towers, and communications
accessories. Effective November 30, 1994 (see Note 3), the Company
also began to operate in the metal finishes market. The metal
finishes segment amounted to less than 10% of the Company's
consolidated operations during the period.
12. Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company invests its cash and certificates of deposit primarily
in deposits with major banks. Certain deposits are in excess of
federally insured limits. The Company has not incurred losses
related to its cash.
The Company sells its products to the U.S. Government, both military
and civil agencies and prime contractors. Although the Company
might be directly affected by the well-being of the defense
industry, management does not believe significant credit risk exists
at May 31, 1995.
Ongoing credit evaluations of customers' financial condition are
performed and, generally, no collateral is required. The Company
maintains reserves for potential credit losses and such losses have
not exceeded management's expectations.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Cabre Corp
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets
of Cabre Corp and subsidiaries as of May 31, 1995 and 1994,
and the related consolidated statements of operations,
shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years then
ended. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of Cabre Corp and subsidiaries as of
May 31, 1995 and 1994 and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
