          accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
          statements contain all adjustments necessary (consisting of only

          position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31,

          Pioneers, Ltd. ( M-Systems ), a company based in Israel.  The
          Company is a major customer of M-Systems.  The Company currently

          4.   Relocation and Restructuring Charge -  On March 4, 1994, the
          Company decided to relocate and restructure substantially all of
          the manufacturing, engineering and administrative functions
          located in Melville, New York to Alabama and Vermont.  A pre-tax
          charge of $8.3 million was recorded during the first quarter of
          1994 and an additional $.8 million was recorded in the fourth
          quarter of 1994, to cover the costs associated with the
          relocation and restructuring including severance and related
          human resource programs, employee relocation, transfer of 
          assets to Alabama and Vermont and production inefficiencies. 
          At March 31, 1995, $.5 million of these charges, representing
          certain relocation related costs, is included in accrued expenses
          on the accompanying balance sheet and is expected to be paid
          during 1995.

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          GENERAL
          -------

               The following discussion and analysis presents certain
          factors affecting the Company's results of operations for the
          thirteen weeks ended March 31, 1995 and March 31, 1994.


          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          ---------------------

               Net sales for the thirteen week period ended March 31, 1995
          (first quarter) were $16.2 million compared to first quarter 1994
          net sales of $20.1 million.   The loss from operations in the
          first quarter of 1995 was $.9 million compared to a loss from
          operations of $7 million in the same period in 1994. The 1994
          first quarter loss from operations was impacted by a relocation
          and restructuring charge in the amount of $8.3 million.  The
          charge reflected the cost associated with the relocation and
          restructuring of substantially all of the manufacturing,
          engineering and administrative functions from Melville, New York
          to Alabama and Vermont.  

               Sales levels and operating performance in the first quarter
          of 1995 reflect the impact of the relocation difficulties
          originally encountered in 1994.  Factors contributing to these
          difficulties included system changes involving the planning,
          ordering and distribution of material to the factory, system
          changes for producing, controlling and releasing engineering
          drawings for production and manufacturing processes that proved
          difficult for new production personnel in a new location.  The
          1995 first quarter sales levels and operating results were in
          line with the Company s operating plan.

               The gross margin percentage for the first quarter of 1995
          was 15.7% compared to 25.1% for the same period in 1994.  The
          decline in gross margin was primarily due to the operational
          impact of the relocation transition and the effect of fixed
          operating expenses on lower sales volume.

               Selling, general and administrative expenses of $2.4 million
          for the first quarter of 1995 decreased by 6% when compared to
          the first quarter of 1994.   Selling, general and administrative
          expenses as a percent of sales were 15% in the first quarter of
          1995 compared to 12.8% in 1994.  The increase in 1995 as a
          percent of sales principally reflects the lower sales volume when
          compared to the prior year.

               Company sponsored engineering, research and development
          expenses for the first quarter of 1995 were $1.0 million compared
          to $1.2 million for the same period in 1994.  The decrease
          primarily relates to the cost benefits of the relocation.  

               Interest expense, net of interest income, was $.4 million in
          the first quarter of 1995 compared to $.3 million in 1994.  The
          increase reflects increased debt and higher interest rates over
          prior year levels.  


                                         -7-

          <PAGE>


               The net loss for the first quarter of 1995 was $1.3 million
          or $.23 per share compared to $5.1 million or $.88 per share in 
          the same period of 1994.  The 1994 net loss was impacted by a 
          charge for relocation and restructuring expenses.  Excluding
          the relocation and restructuring charge, net income and earnings
          per share would have been $.6 million and $.11,  respectively,
          for the quarter ended March 31, 1994.

               No tax benefit has been recognized on the net operating
          losses in the 1995 first quarter.  A net deferred tax asset could
          be recognized in future periods if the probability of realization
          increases.

          LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
          -------------------------------

               Working capital approximated $19.8 million at March 31, 1995
          compared to $19.7 million at December 31, 1994.

               In February 1995, the Company amended its revolving credit
          facility to an amount not to exceed $19 million.  As of March
          31, 1995, the Company had approximately $6.3 million available
          under such facility.  The revolving credit facility balance was
          $12.7 million at March 31, 1995 compared to $13.3 million at
          December 31, 1994.  The revolving credit facility is scheduled to
          mature on May 31, 1996 at which time the outstanding amount would
          be converted into a term loan, payable in twelve (12) equal
          quarterly installments.  However, the bank may extend the
          revolving credit facility for successive one (1) year periods
          based upon a review of the Company's financial position.  The
          Company's accounts receivable, contract rights and inventories
          are pledged as collateral to the agreement.
