              ----------------------------------------------------


1.    Interim Financial Data:

      The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by
      the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
      Securities and Exchange Commission and reflect all adjustments, consisting
      only of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management,
      are necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods.
      These condensed interim financial data should be read in conjunction with
      the Company's latest annual report to shareholders.

2.    Net Income Per Share:

      Net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of
      shares of common stock and common stock equivalents assumed to be
      outstanding during the periods. Common stock equivalents consist of
      options to purchase stock (using the treasury stock method).

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

General
- -------

      The Company has continued to expand its business by opening TRM Centers in
new and existing market areas. The number of market areas served increased from
56 to 66 from June 30, 1995 to June 30, 1996. The number of TRM Centers grew
from 28,995 to 31,719 over the same period. This expansion has continued into
the first six months of fiscal 1997 with the opening of five new market areas
and 1,037 TRM Centers. As of December 31, 1996, the Company had 71 market areas
with 32,756 TRM Centers.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

      Sales for the second quarter were $17.3 million, up 3.7% from second
quarter sales of the previous year of $16.7 million. This growth is due to
increased numbers of installed units during the quarter offset by decreased
average sales per unit. The growth in the number of installed units reflects
expansion in both existing and recently opened service areas.

      Sales discounts are the portion of revenue retained by customers. Sales
discounts as a percentage of sales continue to decline, from 17.4% to 16.8% in
the comparable quarters. This reflects changes made in business agreements with
new customers. The discount rate generally varies between individual retail
businesses based on volume.

      Cost of sales increased 1.1% compared to the prior quarter and 1.8%
compared to the prior six months. This was below the sales growth rates because
of lower paper and toner usage under the Company's higher copy price programs
and because of lower paper costs worldwide.

      Selling, general and administrative costs over the most recent four fiscal
quarters have been relatively unchanged. However, compared to the prior year's
second quarter and first six months, selling, general and administrative costs
grew by 6.9% and 8.5%, respectively, reflecting earlier investments in people
and systems to support growth.

      Interest costs are incurred because the Company uses bank borrowings to
help fund its expansion. The decrease in interest costs is primarily due to
lower debt levels, which decreased from $13.2 million as of December 31, 1995,
to $5.0 million as of December 31, 1996.

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

      During the six months ended December 31, 1996, cash flow from operations
fully funded capital expenditures of $1,824,000 and allowed for repayment of
$3.1 million in bank borrowings. This level of capital expenditures was below
the $2.9 million spent in the same period of the prior year because the Company
focused on removing and redeploying low-performing customer placements in North
America during the first six months.

      The Company currently anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $7
to $8 million during fiscal 1997. The Company intends to finance these capital
expenditures with cash generated from operations and with bank borrowings. The
Company expects that these sources will provide adequate cash to fund its
expansion through at least June 30, 1997.

      Information in this Management's Discussions and Analysis about the
Company's goals, plans and expectations regarding expansion and capital
expenditures constitutes forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. The following factors are among the factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements:
business conditions in the market areas in which the Company operates,
competitive factors, customer demand for the Company's services, the Company's
ability to execute its plans successfully and the volatility of paper costs. Any
forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these factors.
