Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Conditions and Results of Operations
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto
included elsewhere in this report.
Results of Operations
Three and nine months ended May 31, 1996 vs. three and nine months
ended May 31, 1995.
Sales: Sales for the third quarter ended May 31, 1996 and May 31,
1995 respectively are $5,177,921 versus $6,292,979, a 17.8%
decrease. Sales for the nine months ended May 31, 1996 and 1995
are $15,270,201 versus $15,424,609, a 1% decrease. The sales
revenue decrease for the quarter is attributed to reduced
government sales of $2,690,000 from 1995, and nine months to date
reductions of $4,492,000. When government sales revenues are
factored out of 1995 sales, the Company experienced a 44% increase
in sales for the third quarter and 40% increase for the nine months
ended May 31, 1996 versus comparable prior year periods. The sales
revenue increases for the quarter and nine months are partially
attributable to added sales from the acquisitions of Sunelco, Inc.
and Jadco Manufacturing, Inc., and increased revenues from the
Company's core business accounts in industrial products and
systems, and distribution business in domestic and international
markets. In general, sales revenue increases are due to volume
increases, with little or no effect related to price changes.
Gross Profit: Gross profit (sales less cost of sales) increased
7.8% and 16.4% for the third quarter and nine months ended May 31,
1996 versus the same period in 1995. Gross profits were $1,454,455
or 28.1% for the third quarter and $4,226,729 or 27.7% for the nine
months ended May 31, 1996 compared to $1,349,696 or 21.5% for the
third quarter of 1995 and $3,633,009 or 23.6% for the nine months
ended May 31, 1995. The 7.8% increase in the third quarter is
attributed to increases in gross profit percentages from 21.5% in
1995 to 28.1% in 1996, offsetting sales reduction for the period of
$1,115,058. The 16.4% increase for the nine months ended May 31,
1996 versus 1995 are attributed to increased gross profit margins
to 27.7% from 23.6% for the prior year comparable period.
The gross profit percentage improvement is attributed to higher
profit business associated with industrial products and systems
business in 1996 versus 1995, the addition of retail sales from the
Sunelco acquisition and the reductions of lower margin government
contract business in 1996 versus 1995.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A): SG&A Expenses
in 1996 were $1,272,626 for the third quarter and $3,543,568 for
the nine months ended May 31, 1996, compared to $1,091,043 and
$2,953,199 for the same periods in the prior year. The 17% and 20%
increase from the prior year are attributed to additional sales and
<PAGE> 9
marketing expenses, with most of the increases associated to
additional marketing expenses from the Sunelco and Solarjack
acquisitions in October 1995 and February 1996, respectively.
Other Income (Expense): The Company's non-operating income and
expenses consist mainly of interest expense and consulting income.
Interest expense for the quarter was approximately the same in the
third quarter and for the nine months compared to the same periods
in the prior year.
Net Income: The Company achieved a net income of $171,261 ($.01
per common share) for the quarter and $662,893 ($.04 per common
share) for the nine months ended May 31, 1996, representing a 31.8%
decrease for the quarter and approximately the same income for the
nine month period ended May 31, 1996 versus comparable prior year
periods.
The lower net income for the quarter of $171,261 versus $258,652 is
a result of reduced sales revenues, offset by significantly higher
gross profit margins in the Company's industrial products and
retail business, with corresponding offsets for increases in sales
expenses for retail operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources: The Company's working capital
position continues to be stable. Working capital increased to
$4,978,190 at May 31, 1996 from $4,745,029 at August 31, 1995. The
current ratio is 2.5 at May 31, 1996 versus 3.8 at August 31, 1995
and the debt to equity ratio is .05 at May 31, 1996 versus .11 at
August 31, 1995. The reduction in current ratio and the reduction
in debt to equity ratio is a result of classifying a long-term
mortgage loan of $485,000 which is due in November of 1996 into
current liabilities. The Company expects to refinance the mortgage
loan in the fourth quarter of 1996. The effect of reclassifying
this debt back to a long-term liability causes a .5 increase in the
current ratio and a .5 increase to the debt to equity ratio, which
is consistent with the third quarter and year-end ratios of 1995.
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months of
$384,791 was primarily due to increases in inventory and accounts
receivable of $1,745,121, with offsetting increases in accounts
payable and in other current assets of $362,058 with cash
contributions from profits and depreciation of $954,066.
Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months of
$682,183 was for the purchase of property and equipment, and the
acquisitions of Sunelco and Solarjack. Cash used for purchases of
property and equipment of $270,365 was primarily for manufacturing
equipment, leasehold improvements and computer equipment. Cash
used in the acquisitions of Sunelco and Solarjack was $411,818.
Cash provided by financing activities of $752,549 was comprised of
repayments of $137,547 of the long-term debt, offset by proceeds of
$977,192 from the issuance of common stock, borrowings on the line
of credit and payment of dividends of $87,096.
<PAGE> 10
On February 28, 1996, the Company renewed and expanded its
$1,000,00 credit line with First Interstate Bank of Arizona to
$1,200,000. The credit line is a revolving line with an annual
maturity on February 28, 1997. It has certain operating covenants
and is secured by the Company's inventory and accounts receivable.
Interest on the line is calculated at prime plus one half of a
point per annum with interest-only payments payable monthly.
Although no assurances are possible, the Company believes that its
future operating cash flows, access to increased bank lines of
credit, and ability to access additional equity such as the
exercise of present outstanding employee stock options, will
provide adequate funding for current obligations, projected
operations and planned expansions for the next twelve months and
the foreseeable future.

the Company's performance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the

days.
B. Incentive Compensation. The Company shall also provide

with an exercise term of 10 years. Executive's options shall
have all rights and benefits related to stock options of the

Retirement Plan ("SERP").
SECTION VI. CONTINUATION OF MEDICAL EXPENSE BENEFITS
Coverage under the Company's group medical insurance plan ("Group
Plan") shall continue during Executive's disabled status with the
Company, and shall also continue in the event Executive should
die during active or disabled status with the Company for the
benefit of his surviving spouse and dependent children for two
(2) years following Executive's death. In the event that
Executive's, or Executive's spouse's and children's,
participation in the Group Plan is not permitted following his

Group Plan, the Company shall arrange to provide Executive, or
his spouse and children, with benefits substantially similar to

SECTION VII. TERMINATION
A. By Executive.

provide any benefits to Executive, in respect of periods after
such termination, automatically shall terminate and be forfeited.
<PAGE> 14
2. With Cause. If Executive voluntarily terminates his
performance of services to the Company for cause including (i)
the Company's failure to perform the Company's obligations under
this Agreement, and that failure continues for thirty (30) days
following written notice from Executive of nonperformance, or
(ii) the failure of the Board of Directors of the Company to
elect the Executive as Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
then the Company shall pay Executive a lump sum cash payment
equal to twice the amount of the highest annual base salary and
cash bonus paid to Executive during the three previous years and
Executive shall be entitled to such other payments as may be due,
or would have been due Executive under any of the provisions of
this Agreement had such termination not occurred and shall have
all his rights and remedies against the Company that are
available at law or in equity.
B. By the Company. In the event the Company discharges
Executive from his duty and right to perform services in
connection with this Agreement for any reason other than for
cause, the Company shall pay Executive a lump sum cash payment
equal to twice the amount of the highest annual base salary and
cash bonus paid to Executive during the three previous years and
Executive shall be entitled to such other payments as may be due,
or would have been due Executive under any of the provisions of
this Agreement had such termination not occurred and shall have
all his rights and remedies against the Company that are
available at law or in equity. For purposes hereof the Company
shall have "cause" to terminate Executive upon (i) conviction of
Executive of a crime constituting a felony, and (ii) after ninety
(90) days written notice to Executive by the Company concerning
said conditions: (aa) Executive's continued persistent gross
negligence in the performance of his duties hereunder, or (bb)
Executive's continued repeated and willful failure or refusal to
perform his significant duties hereunder. Any termination of
Executive by the Company that is not a termination for cause
shall be deemed a termination without cause.
C. Other Payments. In the event Executive's employment pursuant
to this Agreement is terminated for any reason the Executive
shall be entitled to any and all vested rights under any profit
sharing, pension or other employee benefit plan of the Company in
accordance with the terms and provisions of such plans, and all
deferred compensation payments previously agreed upon by
Executive and the Company, if any.
SECTION VIII. ACCELERATED VESTING OF STOCK OPTIONS
At the option of Executive, all of the stock options for the
purchase of the Company's stock held by the Executive, or as many
of said options as elected by Executive, shall become immediately
exercisable and vested: (i) should the Company discharge
Executive from his right and duty to perform services under this
Agreement at any time without cause, (ii) if the Board of
Directors of the Company fails to elect the Executive as Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, or (iii) if any single
shareholder or group of affiliated shareholders acquire in excess
of fifty (50%) percent of the voting securities of the Company
and elects a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company.

SECTION IX. CONFIDENTIALITY
Executive agrees that, during the continuance of this Agreement
and thereafter, he shall not (otherwise than pursuant to his
duties hereunder) disclose without the written consent of the
Company, any material or substantial, confidential or proprietary
know-how, data or information pertaining to the Company, or its
business, personnel or plans, to any person, firm, corporation or
other entity, for any reason or purpose whatsoever. Executive
acknowledges and agrees that all memoranda, notes, records and
other documents made or compiled by Executive or made available
to Executive concerning the Company's business shall be the

The provisions of this Section IX shall survive the expiration or
termination of this Agreement or any part thereof, without regard
to the reason therefor.
SECTION X. COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE
The Parties acknowledge that Executive's willingness to enter
into this Agreement and to continue as an employee of the Company
constitutes a material inducement to the Company's agreement to
make payments to Executive as set forth herein including those to
be made upon termination. The Parties further acknowledge that
Executive's performance of all terms of this Agreement is
necessary to protect the Company's legitimate business interests.
Executive agrees, that, during the continuance of this Agreement
and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, he will not, on
behalf of himself, or on behalf of any other person, company,
corporation, partnership or other entity or enterprise, directly
or indirectly, as an employee, proprietor, stockholder, partner,
consultant, or otherwise, engage in any business or activity
competitive with the business activities of the Company as they
are now or hereafter undertaken by the Company.
The provisions of this Section X shall be void in the event
Executive is terminated without cause or Executive terminates his
performance under this Agreement with cause including (i) the
Company's failure to perform the Company's obligations under this
Agreement, and that failure continues for thirty (30) days
following written notice from Executive of nonperformance, (ii)
the failure of the Board of Directors of the Company to elect the
Executive as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, or (iii) if
any single shareholder or group of affiliated shareholders
acquire in excess of fifty (50%) percent of the voting securities
of the Company and elects a majority of the Board of Directors of
the Company.
In the event Executive's employment under this Agreement is
occasioned by a termination of Executive for cause, the one (1)
year period contained in this Section X shall instead be two (2)
years.
SECTION XI. DEDUCTIONS AND WITHHOLDING
Executive agrees that the Company and its affiliated companies
shall withhold from any and all payments required to be made to
Executive in accordance with this Agreement all federal, state,
local and other taxes that the Company or any such affiliates

applicable statutes and regulations from time to time in effect.
