The cost of contract research, service and license revenues decreased to 65% for
the six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to 71% for the six months ended June
30, 1996. The decline is due to increased volume and reduced costs

associated with license revenue recognized by the Company in the second quarter
of 1997. Cost of manufacturing equipment decreased to 67% for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 compared to 87% for the six months ended June 30, 1996. The
decrease in total cost of sales is due to increased efficiencies in the
manufacturing process and product mix.


Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30,
1997 were 26% of sales compared to 27% of sales for the six months ended June
30, 1996. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage
of sales due to a 31% increase in the sales base. Depreciation and amortization
expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased 2% to $583,000
compared to $570,000 in 1996. Expenditures for capital equipment declined 35% to
$231,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to $355,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1996.


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

On March 24, 1997, the Company extended its revolving credit facility with
Silicon Valley Bank. This agreement established a $2 million revolving credit
agreement, subject to the availability of eligible accounts receivable. This
line of credit has been established to provide the Company with resources for
general working capital purposes and Standby Letter of Credit guarantees for
foreign customers. The line has been secured by all assets of the Company.
Interest on the line is at prime plus 1/2%. The linE contains restrictive
covenants including provisions relating to profitability and net worth. As of
June 30, 1997, the Company had no outstanding balance under this revolving
credit line.

The Company believes it has sufficient resources to finance its anticipated
capital expenditures through working capital, existing lines of credit or
available lease arrangements.


New Accounting Pronouncement
- ----------------------------

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128"), "Earnings per Share." SFAS
128 establishes a different method of computing net income per share than is
currently required under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 15. Under SFAS 128, the Company will be required to present both basic net
income per share and diluted net income per share. Basic net income per share is
expected to be higher than the currently presented net income per share as the
effect of dilutive stock options will not be considered in computing basic net
income per share. The impact on diluted net income per share is not expected to
be material.

The Company plans to adopt SFAS 128 in its fiscal quarter ending December 31,
1997 and at that time all historical net income per share data presented will be
restated to conform to the provisions of SFAS 128.
