NOTE C - NET INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE

     Net income per common and common equivalent share is based on the
weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during each
period, including Common Stock equivalents of dilutive stock options and
warrants.


NOTE D - INCOME TAXES

     As of July 1, 1993, the Company adopted FASB Statement No. 109, "Ac-
counting for Income Taxes".  As permitted under the Statement, the Company
has elected not to restate the financial statements of prior years.

     Under Statement 109, the liability method is used in accounting for
income taxes.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases
of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and
laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.  
Deferred tax expense was based on items of income and expenses that were
reported in different years in the financial statements and tax returns and
were measured at the tax rate in effect in the year the difference origi-
nated.

Three Months Ended September 30, 1995 Compared to Three Months Ended 
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
September 30, 1994
- ------------------

     The Company reported income of $1,850,000, or $.69 per share, for the
quarter ended September 30, 1995, compared to net income of $195,000, or
$.08 per share, for the comparable 1994 period.

     Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1995 were
$9,287,000, comprised of net sales of TACTech of $377,000 and Omnirel of
$8,910,000.  Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1994 were
$3,374,000, comprised of net sales of TACTech of $286,000 and net sales of
Omnirel of $3,088,000.

     The 189% growth of Omnirel's sales was largely as a result of
continued fulfillment of a series of orders placed previously by General
Electric for multi-chip power module systems containing power hybrid
componentry.  These orders accounted for 77% of Omnirel's revenues for the
three months ended September 30, 1995 compared to 47% for the comparable
1994 quarter.

     Net sales for TACTech increased 31% for the three months ended
September 30, 1995 compared to the comparable 1994 quarter due principally
to an increase of approximately 20% in the subscription base.

     Consolidated gross profit for the three months ending September 30,
1995 was $4,655,000 as compared to $1,330,000 for the comparable 1994
quarter.  Omnirel's cost of goods sold decreased 14% as a percentage of net
sales primarily due to increased efficiency in usage of its manufacturing
facilities, as well as achieving higher yields on its shipped products,
which reduced its material costs.

     As a result of the increased consolidated revenues, selling and
general administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of revenues to
21.6% of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1995 compared to
37.1% in the comparable 1994 period.  The $759,000 nominal increase in such
expenses were due primarily to increases in consolidated management
incentive compensation expense, as well as in sales related expenses
(including research and development) of approximately $383,000 and
approximately $258,000, respectively.

     Interest income and other income for the three months ending September
30, 1995 is primarily comprised of interest, dividend income and net
realized and unrealized gains on marketable securities.  The $516,000
increase from the comparable 1994 quarter was principally due to a net
realized and unrealized gain on marketable securities of $230,000.

     In fiscal year 1994, the Company adopted FASB109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes".  Pursuant to FASB109, the Company recorded a deferred tax
asset, a deferred tax liability and a valuation allowance account which
resulted in a provision for income taxes for the quarter ended September
30, 1995 of $1,152,000.  The Company's provision for income taxes increased
significantly as a result of substantially increased pretax income.  1994
operations reflect the Company's utilization of net operating loss
carryforwards and the related release of valuation allowances previously
established for such losses.


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

     Management expects that its internally generated funds and available
bank lines of credit will be sufficient to finance the continued operations
of the Company.  During the current fiscal quarter, Omnirel reduced its
intercompany debt to the parent Company by $1,500,000.

     Due to the increase in net sales and net income, cash and marketable
securities increased to approximately $10.2 million at September 30, 1995,
compared to approximately $6.6 million at the end of the 1995 fiscal year,
earnings from which contributed to the Company's net income for the
quarter.
