NOTE 1: INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The interim financial statements are unaudited and are prepared in
     accordance with rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
     Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
     in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
     and regulations. In the opinion of Management, the interim financial
     statements include all normal adjustments and disclosures necessary to
     present fairly the Company's financial position as of September 30, 1996,
     and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods ended
     September 30, 1996 and 1995. These statements should be read in conjunction
     with the financial statements and footnotes included in the fiscal 1996
     annual report.

NOTE 2: NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

     The computation of net income per common share is based on the weighted
     average common shares outstanding for the period, including common share
     equivalents. Common share equivalents include the dilutive effect of stock
     options of 245,000 and 379,000 shares, respectively, for the three month
     periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

         Net sales of $36.9 million increased 3% over first quarter net sales
last year of $35.9 million. The Company has changed its disclosure of business
segments in order to more closely align the business segments with the market
focus which the Company uses to manage its business. In prior years, the
business segments included the Lighting segment and the Graphics segment.
Beginning in fiscal year 1997, segment reporting will be on the basis of the
Image segment and the Commercial / Industrial Lighting segment. Prior year data
will be restated accordingly when presented with current data. The Image segment
represents markets and customers to whom the Company has the opportunity to sell
both lighting and graphics; for example, the petroleum / convenience store,
automotive, and quick service restaurant markets. The Commercial / Industrial
Lighting segment represents markets and customers to whom the Company would sell
only lighting systems and fixtures with those customers and markets having no
requirement for graphics; for example, shopping center lighting, industrial
lighting, and landscape lighting.

         Fiscal year 1997 first quarter Image segment sales increased 3.0% and
Commercial / Industrial Lighting segment sales increased 2.4% over the first
quarter of fiscal year 1996. The Company experienced good sales growth in the
multi-site retail market with net sales up over 30%. Sales to the Petroleum /
Convenience Store market, representing about 47% of the Company's total sales,
decreased 4% from the first quarter of fiscal 1996 as the decreased graphics
sales (structural graphics and printed graphics) more than offset increased
petroleum

                                     Page 7

lighting sales. Sales of graphics products in the first quarter of fiscal 1997
were below last year as two of the Company's major oil company customers delayed
roll-out implementation of image conversion programs for which the Company has
orders and/or contracts. This trend of lower graphics products sales has
continued through the filing date of this Form 10-Q. The Company has one
customer, Chevron U.S.A., who accounted for 11% of net sales (reported in the
Image segment) in the first quarter of both 1997 and 1996. The Company believes
that it continues to maintain a good business relationship with this major
customer; however, the level of total sales is never assured in the future. The
increase in net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 was primarily the
result of increased volume. While sales prices were increased, inflation did not
have a significant impact on sales in 1997 as competitive pricing pressures held
price increases to a minimum.

         Gross profit of $12.1 million, or 32.9% of net sales, increased over
last year's gross profit of $11.9 million or 33.3% of net sales. The increase in
amount of gross profit is attributed primarily to the 3% increase in net sales.
A lower utilization of manufacturing capacity in the Company's graphics
operations, and lower graphics sales more than offset improved margins and
efficiencies in the Company's lighting operations. Selling and administrative
expenses increased to $8.8 million primarily as a result of increased sales
volume and increased marketing expenses, and were increased to 24% of net sales
in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 from 23% last year.

         The Company reported net interest income of $97,000 in the first
quarter of fiscal 1997 as compared to net interest expense of $143,000. The
change from the prior year is related to the Company's use of the net proceeds
from the February 1996 Public Offering of Common Shares. Substantially all of
the Company's outstanding debt in February 1996 was paid down with a portion of
the net proceeds, and the remainder was invested in high-quality short term cash
investments. The Company's effective tax rate increased to 37.5% from 37.0% last
year as a result of the increased provision for state income taxes.

         Net income of $2.1 million or $.23 per share compares to last year's
first quarter net income of $2.2 million or $.28 per share. The change resulted
from increased gross profit from increased sales, the reporting of net interest
income rather than net interest expense, a lower income tax provision, and
increased marketing and selling expenses. The weighted average common shares
outstanding increased in the first quarter of 1997 to 9,240,000 shares from
7,961,000 shares in 1996 primarily as a result of the 1.2 million common shares
issued during the third quarter of fiscal 1996 in the Company's Public Offering.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


         At September 30, 1996 the Company had working capital of $37.8 million,
compared to $36.1 million at June 30, 1996. The ratio of current assets to
current liabilities increased to 2.82 to 1 from 2.66 to 1. The increased working
capital is primarily attributed to increases in accounts receivable, and cash
and cash equivalents, partially offset by reductions in inventories and accounts
payable.


                                     Page 8
<PAGE>   9
         The Company generated $2.2 million of cash from operating activities in
the first quarter of 1997 as compared to a use of cash of $.6 million in the
first quarter of 1996. The Company generated more cash in the first three months
of fiscal 1997 primarily due to inventory reductions in the Company's lighting
operations and due to less of an increase in accounts receivable than in last
year's first quarter. As of June 30, 1996, the Company's days sales outstanding
were at approximately 67 days as compared to 59 days at June 30, 1996.

         In addition to cash and cash equivalents (high grade, short-term
investments), the Company's primary source of liquidity continues to be its
lines of credit. The Company has two revolving lines of credit totaling $13
million, all of which is available as of October 30, 1996. The Company believes
that the total of available lines of credit plus cash flows from operating
activities is adequate for the Company's 1997 operational and capital
expenditure needs. The Company is in compliance with all of its loan covenants.
Capital expenditures of $.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compare
to $1.0 million in the first quarter of 1996. Spending in fiscal year 1997 is
primarily related to manufacturing equipment and process improvements. Capital
expenditures of $4 million are planned for 1997.

         In October 1996, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly
cash dividend of $.05 per share ($451,000) to be paid November 19, 1996 to
shareholders of record on November 12, 1996.

         The Company continues to seek opportunities to invest in new products
and markets, and in acquisitions which fit its strategic growth plans in the
lighting and graphics markets. The Company believes that adequate financing for
any such investments or acquisitions will be available through future borrowings
due to the enhanced financial condition of the Company after the Public Offering
or through the issuance of common or preferred shares in payment for acquired
businesses.
