NOTE E - LINES OF CREDIT

During early 1998, the Company refinanced its loan agreement ("Agreement") to
provide for a $4,500,000 line of credit with its primary bank and $3,500,000
with a second bank secured by substantially all assets of the Company. In
conjunction with this refinancing, the Company borrowed $2,800,000 from the CEO
to pay down the original line of credit. The Company amended its Primary Line to
extend the termination date to July 1, 2000 and to lower the interest rate to a
fixed rate of 7.25% per annum. The commitment fee of 1/2% on the unused portion
of the Primary line was also eliminated. All other terms of the Primary Line
remained the same as the original line of credit. The Secondary Line was
extended to January 15, 2000 with the interest rate and all other terms
remaining the same, including a commitment fee of 1/2% charged on the unused
portion. Borrowing under the Lines are limited by eligible accounts receivable
and inventory, as defined. As of November 30, 1999, the outstanding balances on
the Primary Line and Secondary Line were $3,266,000 and $2,970,000,
respectively. The additional availability under the Primary and Secondary Lines
were $2,234,000 and $59,000, respectively as of November 30, 1999. The Line
agreements contain affirmative and negative covenants including requirements
related to tangible net worth, indebtedness to tangible net worth and cash flow
coverage. Additionally, dividend payments, capital expenditures and acquisitions
have certain restrictions.

In May 1999, the Company increased the Primary Line by $1,000,000 to $5,500,000.

The Company does not anticipate problems in placing the line of credit with the
second bank that expires January 15, 2000.

During the current fiscal year, the Company has borrowed $200,000 from a
Director. The note is payable upon demand and accrues interest at prime plus one
percent. Additionally, the Company has repaid $300,000 to the CEO.

Net Sales
- ---------

Consolidated net sales increased $706,000 or 5.1% and $5,137,000 or 12.0% for
the three months and nine months ended November 30, 1999 as compared to the same
periods ended November 30, 1998. Net sales for the CRT division increased
$2,308,000 or 27.0% and $8,806,000 or 33.6% for the three and nine months ended
November 30, 1999 as compared to one year ago. Net sales for the wholesale
division decreased $1,603,000 or 30.2% and $3,669,000 or 22.3% for the three and
nine months ended November 30, 1999 as compared to one year ago.

The net increases of sales in the CRT division is primarily attributed to the
internal growth of the Company's newest acquisitions added in the fourth quarter
of fiscal year ended February 1999. Those acquisitions added $3,742,000 and
$12,029,000 to the three and nine month periods ended November 1999 over the
same periods one year ago. The offsetting declines of approximately $1,434,000
for the

                                       12
<PAGE>

quarter ended and $3,223,000 for the nine months ended November 30, 1999 are
spread across all of the CRT division segments. In the nine month comparative
periods the entertainment display segment declined $1,693,000, the data display
segment declined $605,000, the monitor segment declined $363,000 and the
components segment declined $562,000. Within the television segment, declines
can be traced to decreased volume as a result of fulfillment of a customer
backlog demand.

The decline in revenues in the wholesale parts division includes a decline in
the sales of the Company's Vanco International, Inc. ("Vanco") subsidiary which
was sold September 30, 1999. Included in the three and nine month sales ended
November 30, 1999 were $295,000 and $2,130,000, respectively, pertaining to
Vanco. The same period one year reflected sales for Vanco of $1,034,000 and
$3,101,000. The remaining declines in the wholesale parts segment of $864,000
for the quarter and $2,698,000 for the nine months ended November 30, 1999 as
compared to November 30, 1998 is primarily the result of declines in revenues
from reduction of orders from major electronics distributors who have sought
alternative methods of stocking including direct buys from the major
manufacturers.

Gross margins
- -------------

Consolidated gross margins declined from 34.4% to 30.9% for the three month
comparative periods ended November 30, 1999 and 1998 and from 37.1% to 31.3% for
the same nine month comparative periods. The CRT division margins were down 9.2%
for the comparative nine month periods primarily due to one of the Company's
newest CRT division acquisitions, Aydin Displays. Aydin Displays has provided
$10,748,000 in sales but at a lower gross margin than the other CRT segment
locations have historically provided. During the last quarter of fiscal 1999 and
through this nine month period to date, the Company has realigned several of its
manufacturing locations within the CRT divisions in efforts to streamline its
production, provide for better plant utilization, and to reduce production
overhead costs. During this process, costs have been incurred as materials have
had to be relocated and personnel trained. Order backlog, which has been reduced
during the third quarter, still remains as a result of the manufacturing
locations adjusting to volume changes and the expenses related thereto.

Operating expenses
- ------------------

Operating expenses are flat both in dollars and percentage of sales for the
three and nine month comparative periods ended November 30, 1999. Included in
these expenses is $2,765,000 for the nine months that relate to newly added
locations. The wholesale parts division has reduced $780,000 of operating
expenses in the nine month comparative period through the elimination of two
locations and a reduction of home office personnel.

Interest expense
- ----------------

Interest expense has increased $162,000 and $475,000 for the three and nine
month comparative periods, respectively. The increase can be attributed to the
interest due on the $7,500,000 debt that was entered into in conjunction with
the Aydin Displays acquisition.

During the second quarter of the current fiscal year, the Company paid off the
term note with its primary bank and on September 30, 1999 the Company sold its
subsidiary, Vanco International, and used the proceeds to pay down its revolver.

Income taxes
- ------------

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended November 30, 1999 was 22.3% as
compared to 38.7% one year ago. There is a tax benefit of $123,000 or 10.9%
reflected in the nine months ended November 30, 1999 attributed to a capital
loss carry forward that is to be applied to the $432,000 capital gain realized
on the sale of the Company's subsidiary, Vanco International, Inc. An additional
benefit from foreign operation losses is also reflected.

Foreign Currency Translation
- ----------------------------

The Company's Mexican subsidiary reports on the basis of the functional currency
as being the US dollar. Any exchange gains or losses due to the actual exchange
of pesos and US dollars is currently reflected in the Company's income
statement. There were no significant gains or losses for the current fiscal
year.

Liquidity and capital resources
- -------------------------------

Working capital declined from $26,564,000 as of February 28, 1999 to $25,887,000
as of November 30, 1999. The declines are primarily attributed to the sale of
Vanco whereby the proceeds received were applied to the revolver which is
classified as long term debt. Other changes are attributed to normal ongoing
operations.

The Company is in the process of renegotiating its revolving line with its
secondary bank. The Company does not anticipate problems placing the revolver
with a bank.

The Company does not anticipate significant capital acquisitions for the balance
of fiscal year 2000.

Year 2000 Disclosure
- --------------------

As of the date of the filing of this report, the Company has not experienced any
issues arising from the Year 2000 issue. All internal processing, production,
and receipt of goods from outside suppliers has occurred without problem. The
Company will continue to monitor the progress as we reach other critical dates
including the first month end processing and the leap year, but at this time the
Company has no indications that any problem will arise.
