                    NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 1997
                                    UNAUDITED

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The  accompanying  unaudited  financial  statements  have been  prepared  by the
Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, pursuant to
the  rules  and  regulations  of the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission.  In
management's  opinion all  adjustments  necessary to a fair  presentation of the
results for the  interim  period have been  reflected  in the interim  financial
statements. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily
indicative of the results for a full year.  Except for those described in Note B
below,  all  such  adjustments  are  of  a  normal  recurring  nature.   Certain
information and footnote  disclosures  normally included in financial statements
have  been  condensed  or  omitted.   Such  disclosures  are  those  that  would
substantially  duplicate  information  contained  in  the  most  recent  audited
financial  statements of the Company,  such as significant  accounting policies,
net operating loss carry-overs, lease and license commitments and stock options.
Management  presumes  that  users of the  interim  statements  have read or have
access to the audited financial statements included in the Company's most recent
annual report on Form 10-KSB.

NOTE B - ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

The Company  maintains an allowance for doubtful  accounts based on the aging of
accounts  receivable.  The balance of the  allowance  for  doubtful  accounts is
$47,537 at March 31, 1997 and $4,455 at December 31,  1996.  The  allowance  for
doubtful  accounts was  increased by $43,000 in the first  quarter of 1997.  The
Company was informed  that a customer had filed for chapter  eleven  bankruptcy,
which required a significant increase the allowance.

ITEM 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31 1997 v.
Three months ended March 31 1996

Net Sales:
The Company recorded net sales of $2,822,095 for the three months ended March 31
1997,  an  increase of 61% from net sales of  $1,753,052  for the same period in
1996.  The increase in sales for the first  quarter of 1997 compared to 1996 was
primarily  attributed to sales to Select Comfort Corporation  pursuant to a $5.6
million dollar purchase order which was approximately thirty percent complete at
March 31, 1997.

The  Company  has  continued  to  identify  and secure new  contract  design and
manufacturing  customers,  as well as to actively market its security/industrial
products.  The loss of any contract customer could have an adverse effect on the
Company's  short term results.  The management of the Company  believes that the
contract  design and  manufacturing  portion of its business has  potential  for
growth and is actively promoting this portion of the business.

Gross Profits:
Gross profit was $665,943 or 23.6% of net sales for the three months ended March
31,  1997,  compared  to  $392,421  or 22.4% of net sales for the same period in
1996.  The  increase in gross  profit  margins is due in part to the addition of
capital equipment.  This equipment has helped to streamline production processes
and improved monitoring and reporting methods. To a lesser degree, the sales mix
has also impacted the gross margins for the period.

Operating Expenses:
General and  administrative  expense  was  $264,005 or 9.4% of net sales for the
three months ended March 31 1997, compared to $204,153 or 11.6% of net sales for
the same period in 1996. The additional general and administrative expenses were
necessary  to support the  increased  level of sales  during the  quarter.  As a
percentage of sales, general and administrative  expenses declined for the first
quarter  of 1997,  compared  to the same  period  in 1996  because  general  and
administrative expenses increased at a slower rate than the increase in sales.

Marketing  expense was $66,806 or 2.4% of net sales for the quarter  ended March
31, 1997,  compared to $52,461 or 3.0% for the same period in 1996. The increase
in marketing expense is attributed in part to the addition of a customer service
representative needed to support the continued growth in the contract design and
manufacturing  activities.  The  Company  has  continued  its  emphasis  on  the
marketing of its security/industrial  products, in addition to actively pursuing
new contract design and manufacturing relationships.

Research and development expense was $100,173 or 3.5% of net sales for the first
three  months of 1997,  compared  to  $60,330  or 3.4% of net sales for the same
period in 1996.



                                        8
<PAGE>

The increased  research and development  expense is primarily  attributed to the
addition of technical staff and equipment  needed to better serve our customers'
growing requirements for design and support services.

Interest Expense:
Interest  expense  on the  revolving  line of  credit  was $1.7% of net sales or
$49,485 for the first quarter of 1997,  compared to 1.9% of net sales or $33,782
for the  same  period  in 1996.  The  increase  in  interest  expense  reflected
additional  short term borrowing  needed to support  increased  sales,  accounts
receivable and inventories.

Net Earnings:
The  Company  recorded  net income of $128,337 or $0.046 per share for the first
quarter of 1997, compared to a net income of $71,571 or $0.028 per share for the
same period in 1996.  The results of the first quarter of 1997 were  unfavorably
affected by a $43,000  increase in the  allowance  for  doubtful  accounts.  The
allowance was increased after the Company was notified that a customer had filed
for chapter eleven bankruptcy.  Furthermore,  the Company has set up a provision
for  income  taxes  in  anticipation  that any  remaining  loss  carry  forwards
available to the Company will be used up in the current fiscal year.

The Company  believes  inflation has not  significantly  affected its results of
operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  current  ratio on March 31,  1997 was 1.49 to 1,  compared  to 1.56 to 1 on
December 31, 1996. Working capital on March 31, 1997 was $1,602,252  compared to
$1,567,234  on December 31, 1996.  The  increase in working  capital  during the
first quarter reflects increases in inventory  ($311,138),  accounts  receivable
($71,160),  and prepaid items ($28,250) that are offset by additional short term
borrowing  ($355,000)  needed to support the  increased  sales  during the first
quarter of 1997.

The Company has a revolving  credit  agreement  with the Norwest Bank  Minnesota
South  N.A.("Norwest"),  with a maximum  loan  limit of  $3,500,000,  subject to
additional  limitations set forth in the credit agreement.  The interest rate is
calculated at 3/4% over the prime  interest  rate. At March 31, 1997,  there was
$1,935,227  outstanding  under  the line of  credit.  The  Company's  management
believes that capital available  through the current credit agreement,  together
with cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet the Company's capital
needs in the near future.
