Note 3 - Earnings Per Share:
- ----------------------------
The computation of earnings per common and common equivalent share is based upon
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus
(in periods in which they have a dilutive effect) the effect of common stock
equivalents, comprised of outstanding stock options and warrants. Fully diluted
earnings per share also reflect additional dilution related to outstanding stock
options due to the use of the market price at the end of the period, when higher
than the average price for the period. Net loss per share is based on the number
of common shares outstanding at the end of the period.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
A number of statements contained in this report are forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those expressed or implied in the applicable statements.
These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the recent
introduction of, and the costs associated with, a new product line; dependence
on the acceptance of this new family of products; risks related to technological
factors; potential manufacturing difficulties; dependence on third parties; a
limited customer base; and liability risks.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 were $1,736,546 as compared
with revenues of $1,776,335 for the same quarter of the previous fiscal year, or
a decrease of approximately 2 %. Revenues were lower than expected due to the
last minute request by a major customer to delay a significant shipment until in
the late second quarter of this fiscal year. The Company continued to see
acceptance of its new product, the Sentinel 2000, as well interest in the other
member of the family of SNS products, the Manager 2000.
The Company's cost of goods sold increased from $605,059 for the
quarter ended June 30, 1996 to $741,046 for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 as a
result of the continued change in the product mix from mature product lines to
the new family of products and a decrease in the amount of capitalized software
costs. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales increased from 34.1% for the
previous comparable fiscal period to 42.7% for this fiscal period, due to the
factors discussed above. The Company continues to focus on lowering the costs
related to the newer products as they begin to mature and will eventually see
the benefits from manufacturing efficiencies.
Research and development expenses, net of capitalized software
development, increased from $223,950 in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to
$286,552 in the current fiscal quarter, an increase of 28%. This is a direct
reflection of the Company's continued increased activity related to the
development of the Secure Network Systems/2000 set of products. Research and
development expenses as a percentage of revenues increased from 12.6% to 16.5%.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately 2% from
$903,295 for the prior year's comparable fiscal period to $887,191 for the
fiscal period ended June 30, 1997. This decrease represents lower general and
administrative costs offset by increases in the Company's selling expenses as we
embark on an aggressive growth plan. The Company anticipates seeing increased
revenues as a result of these increased selling expenses in the third and fourth
quarters of this fiscal year.
The Company had a loss from operations of $178,243 for the period ended
June 30, 1997, compared to income from operations of $44,031 for the same period
a year ago. Due to the reduction in interest costs to the Company and the
effects of the income tax benefit of $20,221, the net loss for the period ended
June 30, 1997 was $153,801 compared to net income of $40,100 for the quarter
ended June 30, 1996. At March 31, 1997 the Company had provided a partial
valuation allowance against its existing deferred tax assets. At June 30, 1997
the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against any benefits arising
out of the net loss for the period. The current expiration dates range from the
years 2001 through 2011.

Financial Condition and Capital Resources
- -----------------------------------------
During the first quarter of fiscal year 1998, the Company recorded a
net loss of approximately $154,000. Included in this loss were non-cash charges
of approximately $109,000 for depreciation, amortization and provisions for
inventory allowance and bad debts. As a result, during the first three months of
fiscal year 1998, the Company's financial condition remained relatively stable.
The Company's operations provided $120,000 of cash, due to the
collection of accounts receivable, offset by the payment of accrued payroll and
related liabilities. The Company utilized approximately $60,000 of cash for
capital and software-related expenditures. The Company utilized approximately
$10,000 of cash to pay down its long-term debt in the first quarter as well as
approximately $55,000 to satisfy its New York State tax settlement.
On August 30, 1996, the Company executed a credit agreement with
Farrington Bank of North Brunswick, New Jersey (subsequently acquired by United
National Bank of Bridgewater, New Jersey). The agreement provides the Company
with a $500,000 line of credit to finance future working capital requirements,
collateralized by accounts receivable of the Company. The agreement expires on
August 30, 1997. No amount of this credit line had been utilized as of June 30,
1997.
Based on its current cash and working capital position, as well as
its available line of credit, the Company believes that it will have sufficient
capital to meet its operational needs over the next twelve months.
In fiscal 1998, the Company is required adopt the provisions of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128"), which is effective for
financial statements for annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS 128
establishes standards for the computation, presentation and disclosure
requirements for earnings per share. The adoption of this standard is not
expected to have a material impact on the Company's earnings per share.
In fiscal 1998, the Company is require to adopt the provisions of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 131, "Segment Reporting" ("SFAS 131"), which is effective for
financial statements for annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS 131
establishes standards for the disclosure requirements relative to operating
segments. The Company is currently evaluating the disclosure requirements of the
recently issued statement.
