                      AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
                         DATA SYSTEMS TERMINAL LIMITED
               FOR THE YEARS ENDED 30 JUNE 1997 AND 30 JUNE 1996



We have audited the financial statements of Data Systems Terminals Limited a
company incorporated in England, set out on pages 2 to 11 which have been
prepared under the historical cost convention and on the basis of the
accounting policies set out on pages 7 and 8.

RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE DIRECTORS AND AUDITORS

The company's directors are responsible for the preparation of these financial
statements. It is our responsibility to form an independent opinion, based on
our audit, on these statements and to report our opinion to you.

BASIS OF OPINION

We conducted our audit in accordance with Auditing Standards issued by the
Auditing Practices Boards. An audit includes examination, on a test basis, of
evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
It also includes an assessment of the significant estimates and judgements
made by the directors in the preparation of the financial statements, and of
whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the company's
circumstances, consistently applied and adequately disclosed.

We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and
explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with
sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance as to whether the financial
statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or
other irregularity or error. In forming our opinion we also evaluated the
overall adequacy of the presentation of information in the financial
statements.

OPINION

In our opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state
of affairs of the company as at 30 June 1996 and 1997 and of its profit and
cash flows for each of the years then ended and have been properly prepared in
accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

                       NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                      YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996

1.      Nature of business and summary of significant accounting policies:

        Nature of business:

        Data Systems Terminals Limited ("Company") is a UK company. The
        Company markets electronic terminals, specialised computer software
        and associated stationery which provides retailers with transaction
        processing, in-store controls and management information. The Company
        also provides warranty cover and maintenance contracts on its
        products.

        Inventories:

        Inventories include the cost of equipment for resale and are valued at
        the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.

        Property and equipment:

        Property and equipment are stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs are
        expensed, while betterments are capitalised. When an asset is disposed
        of, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from
        the accounts, and any gain or loss is charged to operations.

        Separately priced extended warranty and product maintenance contracts:

        Revenue is recognised from sales of warranty and maintenance contracts
        on a straight line basis over the contract period. Costs of services
        performed under the contract are charged to expenditure as incurred.

        Depreciation:

        Depreciation is computed by accelerated methods over the useful lives
        of the assets which are one to fifty years.

        Cash equivalents:

        The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a
        maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

                 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                      YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996

1.      Nature of business and summary of significant accounting policies
        (continued):

        Concentrations of credit risk:

        Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
        concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and
        temporary cash investments and accounts receivable.

        The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high
        quality financial institutions. The Company has not incurred losses
        related to these financial instruments. Accounts receivable are
        primarily sales of the Company's equipment and maintenance contracts.
        The Company minimises credit risk by obtaining bank and trade
        references. The Company factors its accounts receivable under a
        recourse agreement. See Note 4.

2.      Use of estimates:

        The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
        accepted accounting principles require management to make estimates
        and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
        liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
        date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
        and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
        from those estimates.

3.      Inventories:
                                            1997                  1996

               Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements
                             Basis of Presentation


         The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined financial statements
give effect to the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Data
Systems Terminals Limited ("DSTL") by Comtrex Systems Corporation ("Comtrex")
as described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Combined
Financial Statements. The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements
have been prepared assuming that the acquisition had occurred as of September
30, 1997, in the case of the unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet, or as
of April 1, 1996, in the case of the unaudited pro forma combined statement of
operations. DSTL and Comtrex, on a combined basis, are referred to herein as
the "Company".

         The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements have been
prepared by management and should be read in conjunction with the historical
financial statements of DSTL and Comtrex. These statements are based on
certain assumptions and preliminary estimates which are subject to change.
They do not purport to be indicative of the financial positions or results of
operations that might have occurred, and do not purport to be indicative of
future results.

         Management believes additional synergies and operational
improvements, not reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma combined
financial statements, will be realized by the acquisition. However, such
amounts cannot be reasonably quantified and, therefore, are not reflected in
the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.      Stock Purchase Transaction

On October 2, 1997, the Registrant acquired from Norman Roberts ("Norman"),
Shirley Roberts ("Shirley"), and Steven Roberts ("Steven" together, with
Norman and Shirley, the "Sellers") all the issued and outstanding capital
stock (the "Stock") of Data Systems Terminals Limited, a corporation formed
and existing under the laws of England ("DSTL"). DSTL is a distributor of the
Registrant's products in the United Kingdom, which business the Registrant
intends to continue.

The following consideration was paid by the Registrant for such acquisition of
the Stock:

        (a) 400,000 restricted shares of the Common Stock of the Registrant,
par value $.001 per share, were delivered by the Registrant to Steven. These
shares of the Registrant's Common Stock are not transferrable by Steven on or
before October 2, 1999.

        (b) A Subordinated Convertible Debenture, in the original principal
amount of $300,000 (the "Debenture"), was delivered by the Registrant to
Norman and Shirley. The Debenture accrues interest at the rate of eight
percent (8%) per annum, which is payable monthly. No principal is payable
pursuant to the terms of the Debenture for the first three (3) years following
its delivery. The Debenture is convertible into shares of the Registrant's
Common Stock (in blocks of 20,000 shares), at any time on or before October 2,
2000, at the rate of $1.00 per share. The Registrant may prepay all amounts
outstanding under the Debenture at any time on or before October 2, 2000 if
(i) the shares of the Registrant's Common Stock have closed at $1.50, or
higher, for each trading day for a thirty (30) day period, and (ii) the
Registrant has provided the holders of the Debenture with at least sixty (60)
days prior written notice of the prepayment. Any principal outstanding of the
Debenture on October 2, 2000 shall be paid by the Registrant in twelve (12)
equal quarterly installments. The Registrant anticipates that internal funds
will be utilized to make all interest and principal payments due under the
Debenture.

        (c) A promissory note, in the original principal amount of $65,000
(the "Note"), was delivered to Norman and Shirley. The Note bears interest at
the rate of six percent (6%) per annum. The outstanding principal balance of
the Note, and all interest accrued thereon, is repayable in twelve (12) equal
monthly installments, commencing on November 1, 1997. The Registrant
anticipates that internal funds will be utilized to make such payments due
under the Note.

The business combination will be accounted for using the purchase method. The
results of operations for DSTL are included in the pro forma statements of
operations for the year ended March 31, 1997 and the six month period ended
September 30, 1997.

The cost of the acquired enterprise is $630,600, which represents 400,000
shares of Comtrex Common Stock with an assigned value of $233,600, the
$300,000 Debenture, the $65,000 Note and legal and accounting fees associated
with the transaction of $32,000.

Acquired goodwill will be amortized over twenty (20) years, using the
straight-line method.
