TECHNOLOGY GENERAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
In 1994, the Company, following negotiations with the U. S. Justice Department,
received a Memorandum of Settlement relating to an "innocent landowner defense"
regarding toxic chemical contamination at a division's former site. Also, the
New Jersey D.E.P. has objectively entered the negotiations to account for their
portion of the Superfund expenditures. To date, the Memorandum stipulates that
the United States Government ("USG") would receive $25,000 upon execution of the
settlement, $206,000 payable over five years, and a balloon payment of $150,000
payable in five years. In addition, the USG would receive 60 percent of the net
proceeds from the sale of the property. At September 30, 1997, the Company has
established an accrual for this loss contingency in the amount of $331,000.
The Company is party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the ordinary
course of business. While the ultimate effects of such litigation cannot be
determined at present, it is Management's opinion, based on the advice of legal
counsel, that any liabilities which may result from these actions would not have
a material effect on the Company's ability to operate.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the six-month period ended September 30, 1997, Technology
General Corporation and subsidiary had consolidated revenues of $1,513,570
and a net loss of $18,064. Technology General Corporation, operating
individually as a holding company managing the various operating segments,
does not generate significant revenue other than allocating management
expenses to the operating entities and leasing space to two tenants.
The Eclipse and Clawson Divisions operate in combination with
each other, and total sales for the six-month period amounted to $550,933 and
$148,360, respectively, for a total of $699,293.
Clawson Machine's ice crushing products featuring the patented
"Plus Crusher" are used in conjunction with major ice cube machines, primarily
Scotsman, Manitowoc, Crystal Tips, and Ice-O-Matic. This system provides an
in-line means to intercept the flow of ice cubes in order to process them into
crushed ice during each ice cube harvest cycle. This device, which is installed
as an integral part of each ice cube machine, is used predominantly by hotels
and restaurants where large volumes of crushed ice are required.
Clawson Machine has received recognition from the National
Sanitation Foundation (N.S.F.) for improvements of its various machines used
primarily for crushing ice applicable to hotels and restaurants. N.S.F.
approval is becoming a mandatory requirement throughout various parts of the
country for machines used in the processing of foods and liquids to assure
maintenance of sanitary conditions. Clawson is one of a few manufacturers in
its category who has been awarded this distinction.
Eclipse Systems's sales for the six months ended September 30,
1997, decreased $24,811 from the comparable period for 1996. Management
expects sales to gradually increase as a result of the introduction of a new
line of industrial mixers. The division has recently designed and developed
a special line of chemical mixers, which are expected to generate increased
sales in the air-driven mixer market.
The Precision Metalform Division reported sales for the six
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 of $489,800 and $581,360,
respectively. Management anticipates that sales for the balance of the year
are expected to increase in the writing instruments field whereas cosmetic
sales are expected to remain stable. Precision Metalform, along with the
Company's other operating divisions, has taken positive steps to reduce its
general and administration overhead, including efforts to reduce inventories
to conserve cash flow.
Transbanc International Investors Corporation, a wholly-owned
subsidiary, is a real estate holding company which leases its 107,000 square
foot building to six (6) industrial tenants. Total rental revenue for the
six months ended September 30, 1997 amounted to $232,306, a decrease of
$11,436 compared to the six months ended September 30, 1996. Management
anticipates a modest increase in revenue from this facility resulting from
modified leases for an extended period of time.
The Company's Aerosystems Technology Division owns a 24,000
square foot industrially-zoned building situated on 22 acres located in
Franklin, New Jersey, of which 3.5 acres were the subject of an E.P.A.
Superfund cleanup. This property has been fully restored and is presently
occupied by two (2) tenants. Rental revenue for the six month period ended
September 30, 1997, totaled $23,700 compared to $12,744 for the comparable
1996 period, an increase of $10,956.

LIQUIDITY:
As at September 30, 1997, current assets amounted to $1,149,754
and current liabilities totaled $379,831, reflecting a working capital of
$769,923 and a current ratio of 3.03 to 1. There was negative cash flow for
the current six month period of $19,286 due mainly to the purchase of
building improvements and equipment in the amount of $212,911.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
PRODUCT SALES. Technology General Corporation's manufacturing
segment generated sales of $1,189,092 for the six-month period ended
September 30, 1997.
RENTAL SALES. Total consolidated rental billings for the
six-month period ended September 30, 1997 amounted to $324,478, an increase
of $52,823, over the same period for 1996.
GROSS MARGIN. The consolidated gross profit margin for the six
months ended September 30, 1997, was 38 percent.
SELLING, GENERAL, AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. These expenses
as a percent of net sales were approximately 39 percent for the six months
ended September 30, 1997.
INTEREST. Total Interest expense for the six months ended
September 30, 1997 amounted to $53,167, of which $46,414 is reflected under
"Cost of Rentals" and the remainder of $6,753 is shown as a separate line
item within "Other Income (Expense)".
NET INCOME/LOSS. The net loss for the six months ended
September 30, 1997 amounted to $18,064, an decrease of $298,151 over the
comparable six-month period in 1996. The $298,151 difference in earnings
between the six month periods is mainly due to a large insurance recovery
reflected in the September 30, 1996 statement of operations.
