              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Six Months Ended August 28, 1999

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OTHER MATTERS

A)    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended February 28, 1999.

Operating results for the periods ended August 28, 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending February 29,
2000.

B)    Income per Share

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are based
on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock
equivalents (options and warrants) outstanding during the period, except where
the effect would be antidilutive, computed in accordance with the treasury stock
method.

C)    Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes, on domestic operations, for periods ended August
28, 1999 and August 29, 1998 were calculated at an effective annual tax rate of
4.5%, reflecting the utilization of available net operating loss carryforwards
and also taking into account the "Alternative Minimum Tax". The provision for
income taxes on foreign operations was estimated at 21%.

of $5,657,497 for the six months ended August 28, 1999 were 8.5% higher than
prior-period's sales of $5,213,718. The increased sales for both the three month
and six month periods when compared to the comparable prior year periods are
principally due to increased unit volume in the Company's domestic orthotic
business and increased sales in the Company's subsidiary in the United Kingdom.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of sales for both the three month and six month
periods ended August 28,1999 was consistent with but slightly lower than the
comparable periods in the prior year. For the three months ended August 28,1999
gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 38.2% of sales from 38.9% in
the comparable prior period, while for the six month period ended August
28,1999, gross margin as a percentage of sales decreased to 37.1% from 37.7% in
the comparable period in the prior year.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the recently ended quarter were
$1,081,415 compared to $865,057 in the comparable prior-year period, a 25%
increase. Selling expenses increased $69,632 principally due to increased
commissions associated with increased sales and increased travel expenses, while
general and administrative expenses increased $146,996 primarily due to
increased professional fees and salary and salary related expenses. Selling,
general and administrative expenses for the six months ended August 28,1999 were
$1,964,542 compared with $1,702,197 in the prior comparable period. Selling
expenses increased $105,358 over the prior year period principally due to
increased advertising and promotional expenses focused on increasing market
share and future sales and increased commissions associated with the increased
sales. General and administrative expenses increased $156,987 primarily due to
increased professional fees and salary and salary related expenses.

Research and Development Expense

As of March 1, 1999, the Company established a Product Development department to
explore new applications for existing products and to ensure that the Company
remains on the cutting edge of orthotic therapy. Costs incurred during the three
month and six month periods ended August 28,1999 of $34,658 and $53,719,
respectively, were principally salary and salary related expenses.

Other Income and Expenses

Other income consists primarily of income generated from investments, service
charge income generated from the Company's accounts receivable, seminar fees and
in both prior year periods, a gain on legal settlement of $149,498. Net other
income was $1,765 for the second quarter of the current fiscal year as compared
with $16,164 in the comparable prior year's quarter, exclusive of the gain on
legal settlement. For the six month periods, net other income was $20,175 this
year versus $50,844, exclusive of the gain on legal settlement.

Liquidity

At August 28, 1999 , the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,303,930 and
working capital of $2,354,959. Cash balances decreased $396,226 from February
28,1999 primarily due to the Company's investment in capital equipment of
$275,572. These capital expenditures were made to position the Company for
future growth. The Company's $1.5 million revolving credit facility expired on
July 31,1999 and the Company is currently negotiating the renewal of this
facility and anticipates that this facility will be renewed on terms
substantially similar to the expired facility. The Company has never borrowed on
the revolving credit facility and management believes that its existing cash
balances, funds generated from operations and the renewed revolver will be
adequate to meet cash needs.

Recent Pronoucements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board

In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"), which requires that
derivative instruments be measured at fair value and recognized as assets or
liabilities in the Company's balance sheet. SFAS No. 133 is effective for all
quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company is
currently evaluating the effect that SFAS No. 133 will have on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.

Year 2000 Compliance

The inability of computers, software and other equipment utilizing
microprocessors to recognize and properly process data fields containing a 2
digit year is commonly referred to as the "Year 2000 Compliance" issue. As the
year 2000 approaches, such systems may be unable to accurately process certain
date-based information. The Company commenced a program in fiscal 1998 to
identify, remediate, test and develop contingency plans for Year 2000
Compliance. Currently, the Company is substantially complete with its Year 2000
Compliance Program, the results of which are summarized as follows:

Computer Information Systems ("CIS")

Beginning in fiscal 1998 (March 1997 - February 1998), the Company began
implementing a new enterprise-wide CIS. The CIS is customized software running
on a Windows NT Server. The server, customer software and all networked personal
computers are fully Year 2000 compliant. The Company has been operating the new
CIS since February 1998 and it is now considered fully implemented. The Company
anticipates that the CIS, as it relates to the Year 2000 Compliance issue, will
have no effect on business operations.

Products

The Year 2000 Compliance issue affects none of the Company's current products.
Due to the nature of the Company's business, custom orthotics and related
materials and services, no software or microprocessors are used in the products.

Third Parties

The Company solicited statements of compliance from its key outside vendors,
manufacturers and suppliers with respect to their CIS and overall business
operations. Approximately 70% of these parties responded and informed the
Company that they are currently compliant or plan to be compliant by December
31, 1999. To the extent that any of these parties have been unable to certify
that they will be substantially Year 2000 compliant by early 1999, the Company
is reviewing its alternatives with respect to other vendors, manufacturers or
suppliers (as applicable). Currently, the Company has received responses from
its critical suppliers and its CIS vendor certifying full Year 2000 compliance.
Throughout the remainder of 1999 the Company will continue its efforts to
monitor the progress and obtain and evaluate responses of its key vendors,
suppliers and other significant third parties.

Costs

The Company's most significant Year 2000 Compliance costs related to the
implementation of the new CIS and were incurred in prior years as part of the
implementation of the new enterprise-wide CIS. Costs incurred in the current
year were not significant and the Company does not currently anticipate that
future costs associated with its ongoing Year 2000 Compliance program will be
material to its financial condition or results of operations.

The Year 2000 issue presents far-reaching implications, some of which cannot be
anticipated with any degree of certainty. Satisfactorily addressing the Year
2000 Compliance issue is dependent on many factors, some of which are not
completely in the Company's control, such as availability of certain resources,
third party remediation plans and other market-wide factors. Based on the
assessment that has been made under the Year 2000 Compliance program, and other
than stated above, the Company has no other contingency plans in the event of
Year 2000 noncompliance and does not currently believe that any other
contingency plans are necessary. In addition, management is not able to
determine the effect of any Year 2000 noncompliance (including with respect to a
"worst-case scenario") on the Company, and there can be no guarantee that any
such noncompliance would not have an adverse effect on the Company's CIS,
results of operations and financial condition.

Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results
