Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered
necessary for fair presentation have been included. Operating results for
the three month period ended December 31, 1996, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September
30, 1997. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1996.
Note 2 - Income Taxes
As of September 30, 1996, for federal income tax purposes, the Company had
approximately $3 million in net operating loss carryforwards expiring through
2002. The annual utilization of the operating loss carryforward may be
significantly limited due to the adverse resolution, if any, with respect to
the loss carryover provisions of Internal Revenue Code section 382 in
connection with certain stock issuances by the Company.
<PAGE> 7
Note 3 - Regulation S Offering
During the three month ended on December 31, 1996, the Company issued a
Regulation S Offering for the purpose of completing the Company's tire
recycling plant and for general corporate purposes. The Offering Circular
consisted of 51,222 common stock valued at $5.00 per share raised. This
offering raised $230,500, net of placement fees.
ITEM 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Three Months Ended December 31, 1996, as Compared to the Three Months Ended
December 31, 1995
Net Sales increased 8.9% to $13.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1996
compared to $12.6 million in the same fiscal 1995 period. The Company
believes that this increase in net sales was due to the combined effects,
on volume, due to an increase in hard disk sales and new peripheral product
offerings (monitors and modems), and, on pricing, of continued competitive
pricing.
Gross profit increased 2.4% from $637,000 in the first quarter of 1995 to
$652,000 in the comparable fiscal 1996 quarter, reflecting both an increase
in quarterly unit sales and slightly lower profit margins. Gross profit as a
percentage of net sales decreased from 5.1% in the first quarter of 1995 to
4.8% in the first quarter of 1996, mainly due to competitive pricing within
the computer parts distribution business.
Selling, general and administrative expenses remained unchanged in dollar
terms and slightly decreased from 3.6% in the first quarter of fiscal 1995
to 3.3% in the comparable fiscal 1996 period. Strict inventory and cost
controls kept expenses in line with prior year's levels.
Income from operations increased from $179,000 in the first quarter of fiscal
1995 to $195,000 in the first quarter of 1996. As a percentage of net sales,
operating income remained unchanged at 1.4% as a result of offsetting gross
profit and selling, general and administrative variances.
Other expenses increased six fold from $12,000 in 1995 to $71,000 in 1996.
This increase was mainly attributable to securities margin interest costs.
Provision for income taxes decreased to $12,000 for the first quarter of 1996
in comparison to $17,000 for the comparable fiscal 1995 period. The income
tax provision for the quarter only reflects an accrual for state income taxes,
since the Company benefited from the application of net operating loss
carryforwards from prior years.
Net income decreased 25.3% to $112,000, or $0.04 per in the first quarter of
fiscal 1996 compared to $150,000, or $0.07 per share for the same fiscal 1995
quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended on
December 31, 1996 was $823,000 as compared to $511,000 in the comparable
prior year quarter. Cash provided by investments in securities in the amount
of $204,00 largely substantiates the differences between quarterly periods.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities in 1996 was ($252,000),
as compared to ($300,000) in 1995 principally reflects the net effects of
the following activities: In 1996, the purchase of company stock along with
a Regulation S offering and; In 1995, a $300,000 equity contribution to
Dalain Green.
Net cash provided by (used in) in 1996 was $97,000 in comparison to nil
activity in 1995 mainly reflects the issuance of common shares and the use of
a securities margin facility.
Since May 1994, the Company has primarily operated with internally generated
cash flow and vendor lines of credit. The Company plans to fund the growth of
its distribution business with internally generated funds, vendor credit lines
and prospective asset-based financing. The Company intends to seek an
accounts receivables/inventory facility during the early part of 1997. The
Company has been pursuing various alternatives intended to facilitate its
entry into the environmental resources industry. To this end, it will
continue to explore the development of new recycling projects and
acquisitions along with viable funding schemes. There can be no assurances
that it will be successful in satisfying its diversification objectives. For
a description of the Company's investment in Dalian Green and its role as a
technology provider, see Note 1 to the Company's Consolidated Financial
Statements for the year ended on September 30, 1996.
