                 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
                               December 31, 1993


     NOTE 1 -  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

           The unaudited, consolidated, condesed financial statements of
           Micro Security Systems, Inc. (the "Company") included herin have
           been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
           Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and 
           footnote disclosures normally required in financial statements
           prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
           have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules adequate to
           make the information presented not misleading.

           These interim unaudited, consolidated, condensed financial
           statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual
           Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1993 as filed with
           the Securities and Exchange Commission.  In the opinion of
           Management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
           accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
           included.  Opering results for the three month period and the Six
           month period ended December 31, 1993 are not necessarily indicative
           of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30,
           1994.
          
           Cash and Cash Equivalenants and Short-Term Investments
           For the purposes of the consolidated balance sheets and statements
           of cash flows, the Company considers all investments with an 
           original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

           Loss per share is based on the weighted-average number of shares
           actually outstanding.  No common stock equivalents are included in

                ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

           At December 31, 1993, the Company had current assets of $709,655 as
compared to $613,645 at June 30, 1993.  Trade accounts receivable decreased by
$122,427 during the quarter from $267,484 as of June 30, 1993, to $145,057 as
of December 31, 1993.  Inventories increased by $285,940 from $274,555 as of 
June 30, 1993, to $559,925 as of December 31, 1993.  Property and equipment 
increased by $301,915 from $506,765 as of June 30, 1993, to $808,680 as of 
December 31, 1993.  Current liabilities increased by $410,576 from $136,620
as of June 30, 1993, to $547,196 as of December 31, 1993.  The Company has
available to it, a line of credit.  Overdraft amounts shown on the financial 
statements shown herein are amounts utilized in association with the credit 
line.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

           Net sales for the three month period ending December 31, 1993, were
$210,024 compared to sales of $488,243 for the same period in the  prior year.
This represents a decrease of $278,219, a decrease of fifty seven per cent 
(57%).  Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 1993, were $746,860 
compared to $913,805 for the first six months of fiscal 1993 for a decrease 
of $166,945.  Sales decreased by eighteen per cent (18%) during the period 
compared to the same period a year earlier.  The decrease in sales is primarily
attributable to the loss of a major customer that no longer uses hardware 
security devices.  The balance of the decrease is attributable to a downturn
in business for the Company's normal customer base.

           During the six month period ending December 31, 1993, salaries and 
wages increased by $129,926 from $201,251 to $331,177 for the same period a 
year earlier.  General and administrative expenses increased by $291,439 during
the six month period ended December 31, 1993, from $249,862 to $541,301 for 
the same period a year earlier.  Research and development expenses during the
six month period ended December 31, 1993, increased by $7,442 from $428 to 
$7,866 for the same period a year earlier.  Total operating expenses for the 
period ended December 31, 1993, increased by $456,307 from $475,882 to 
$932,189 for the same period a year earlier.  This represents an increase of
approximately ninety six per cent (96%).  The  increase in salaries and wages
and general and administrative expenses is due to an increase in the number 
of employees created by the addition and expansion of the Company's subsidiary
Maxwell Systems.  Research and development costs may be understated because 
some of these expenses are included in either salaries and wages or general 
and administrative expenses.  

           For the three month period ended December 31, 1993, the Company 
had net operating loss of $268,345 compared to a net operating income of 
$93,547 for the three month period ended December 31, 1992.  Net operating 
income decreased by $361,892.  Net loss for the six month period ended 
December 31, 1993, was $240,942 compared to a net income of $179,846 for the 
same period a year earlier.  Net loss per share for the six month period 
ended December 31, 1993, was $(0.040) compared to net income of $0.029 per
share for the same period a year earlier. 

           The Company's sales decreased significantly during the quarter 
ended December 31, 1993.  The decrease in sales associated with an increase 
in salaries and wages and increased general and administrative expenses 
during the quarter resulted in a significant loss.  The Company has spent 
funds to provide various administrative and support services for the startup 
of its subsidiary, Maxwell Systems, Inc.

           The Company's sales for the second quarter of fiscal 1994 ended 
December 31, 1993, were significantly lower than the sales for the first 
quarter of fiscal 1993.  The current ratio as of December 31, 1993, was 1.29 
compared to a current ratio of 4.49 as of June 30, 1993.

           As of December 31, 1993, the Company has long-term debt for a 
capital lease in the amount of $226,968.

           Management believes that the increase in inventories is due to a 
demand by customers for a shorter lead time on deliveries.  

           Management anticipates for fiscal 1994 is that sales for the 
Company's SecuriKey line of products will increase as the customer base 
expands and becomes more diversified.  It is management's goal for 
Registrant's sales to become more stable and experience smaller fluctuations 
from quarter to quarter.  The Company has several customers which tend to 
dominate sales.  Changes in orders of these customers has significantly 
impacted sales during this quarter and could, in the future either positively 
or negatively impact sales.

LIQUIDITY

           The Company has secured a line of credit to resolve short term 
liquidity issues.  With the Company's expansion and changing business 
environment, it is managements belief that this line of credit will be 
sufficient to meet the Company's need for the near future.


EQUIPMENT PURCHASE

           The Company has purchased automatic component placement equipment 
to be used in the manufacturing of the Company's products.  Management 
believes, the new equipment will increase the automation and efficiency of 
its manufacturing.  The Company anticipates manufacturing electronic 
components and products on a contract basis for other entities to utilize 
any excess capacity.  Manufacturing on a contract basis represents a new 
line of business for the Company.  The Company has incurred "start-up" costs 
to bring the new equipment on line and to adapt its manufacturing procedures 
to the automated equipment.

           Generally, management believes that the financial stability and 
future of the Company is dependent on increasing sales and income from the 
SecuriKey products.  In the past, net profits and net losses from operations 
significantly varied from quarter to quarter.

                          ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDING

           During the reporting period the Company was a party to the following
material legal proceedings:

           In August 1993, the Company filed a Complaint in Third District 
Court of Salt Lake County, State of Utah, against Interstate Trucking Service, 
Interstate Commerce Tax Advisory Service, and certain of the officers of the 
companies.  The complaint alleges breach of contract and misrepresentation in 
relation to previous transactions and seeks damages of approximately $130,000.

           In October 1993, a complaint was filed in Third District Court of 
Salt Lake County, State of Utah, against the Company and other individuals 
including the former owners of Quick Circuits, Inc. alleging a breach of the 
lease covering certain facilities previously occupied by Quick Circuits.  The 
action seeks monetary damages in an unspecified amount for the breach of the 
lease. The Company has referred this action to counsel and has not yet had 
the opportunity to fully evaluate the merits of the claim.  The Company will 
investigate the matter fully and intends vigorously pursue all defenses 
available to it in regard to this action.

                        ITEM 2.  CHANGES IN SECURITIES
                                    None.
                                       
                   ITEM 3.  DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

           No matters were submitted to a vote of the Company's shareholders
during the quarter.

                          ITEM 5.  OTHER INFORMATION
           The Company's SecuriKey products comprised approximately 90% of 
sales for the quarter ending December 31, 1993.

           The Company will emphasize expanding the sales of its SecuriKey 
product line including the ADB products for the Apple computer market and the 
SecuriKey product for the Unix market.  In addition the Company will continue 
its limited marketing of the SecuriData products.  SecuriData encrypts and 
decrypts data as it is processed and flows from storage to processing and 
back to storage.  The acceptance of the SecuriData product is slowly building 
and increasing as customers understand the capabilities and features of 
SecuriData.  During the period, the Company has completed development of a 
new model of SecuriKey and anticipates increased sales as a result of the 
introduction of this new series.
