Comprehensive Income
- --------------------

   As of January 1, 1998, the company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130"). SFAS 130
establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components. The adoption of SFAS 130 has no impact on the Company's net
income or shareholders' equity. For the three months ended March 31, 1998 and
1997, comprehensive income equaled net income.

patterns, increased competition, lack of acceptance of new products, pricing
pressures, lack of success in technological advancements, risks associated with
foreign operations and other factors.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales
- ---------

    Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1998, were $5,306,000
compared to $6,415,000 for the same period in the prior year. Machine sales have
been affected by customer delays in accepting additional units while awaiting
newer models, limited acceptance in certain sectors of the contract assembly
market, the effects of oversupply in the memory module industry and the
intensifying of competition.

    The first two factors mentioned above are expected to continue until the
third quarter when the Company expects to receive the newest technology pick and
place machine from its offshore supplier. At that time, the Company expects the
new model to appeal to a broader sector of the market and satisfy delayed orders
from its current customer base.

Gross Margin
- ------------

    Gross margin for the current quarter decreased as a percentage of sales due
to higher manufacturing variances related to re-costing the Company's line of
machine feeders. In addition, the Company increased management and support
personnel related to expansion of the Manufacturing Services Division.

Sales, General and Administrative
- ---------------------------------

    Selling expenses declined in the current quarter primarily due to lower
commission expenses which related to lower sales. Research and development
expenses decreased in the current quarter due to the recent conclusion of
several development projects.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Company generated cash from operating activities totaling $481,000 for
the current quarter. Contracts receivable decreased and accounts receivable
increased primarily due to reclassification of a contract to accounts
receivable. Demonstration equipment decreased $228,000 primarily related to
transfers to inventory from the Company's former European facility. Expenditures
for the current quarter, for property and equipment were $400,000, and primarily
consisted of surface mount machines for the Manufacturing Services Division
expansion.
