ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
           RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
         -----------------------------------------------

General
- -------

     In December  1993,  the Company  organized a limited  partnership,  Display
Optics, Ltd. (the  "Partnership"),  to obtain capital to continue development of
the fiber optic video  technology and related  display screen  technology and to
manufacture and market the display screen products world-wide.  The Company acts
as a general partner and the  Partnership is managed by Display Group,  LLC. The
Company conducts substantially all of its business through the Partnership.  For
accounting  purposes,  the  Company  accounts  for  its  relationship  with  the
Partnership  as a  research  and  development  partnership.  The  investors  are
entitled to preferential  payment from available cash flows from the Partnership
which would reduce the research and development liability of the Company.

     In  February  1995,  the  Partnership  agreed to borrow  $275,000  from the
managing  partner  and  secured by the assets of the  Partnership,  for  working
capital.  In  conjunction  with the  loans  the  Company  entered  into  certain
agreements  with the  investors.  At December  31,  1995,  the  Partnership  had
borrowed  $273,127  under  the  agreement  and  had  additional   borrowings  of
approximately  $312,250 from the managing partner and affiliates.  The loans are
convertible to partnership  units which may then be converted into common shares
of the Company.

     The patents and technology formerly owned by the Company and transferred to
the Partnership in connection with the initial  capitalization  are subject to a
security interest in favor of a commercial lender and another entity. Management
believes that a security  interest arose while the patents and  technology  were
owned by the third party. The assets of the commercial  lender were subsequently
acquired by the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC) as receiver, resulting in the
RTC maintaining the security  interest in these patents and technology  together
with the debt which the  technology  secured.  Management  does not  believe any
action was ever  commenced  to  foreclose  or  otherwise  enforce  the  security
interest.  In December,  1995, the managing partner of the Partnership  acquired
the  security  interest in these  patents and  technology  as  collateral  for a
debenture securing the underlying note which was also acquired from the RTC. The
Company  believes such security  interest will  ultimately be contributed to the
Partnership for additional  consideration.  The patents and technology continued
to serve as collateral to the debenture in the principal  amount of  $2,175,000,
which debenture and underlying note were in default.

     The Company  has  restated  net loss for the  quarter and six months  ended
December 31, 1994, deficit accumulated during the development stage,  investment
in the DOL,  common stock and additional  paid-in capital as a result of certain
transactions and adjustments  described in the notes to the financial statements
contained  in the  Company's  annual  report on Form  10-KSB for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1995.


Results of Operations
- ---------------------

     For the  quarter  and six months  ended  December  31,  1995,  the  Company
reported net loss of $223,810  and  $401,346,  respectively,  as compared to net
loss of $125,667  and  $284,781,  respectively,  for the same fiscal  periods of
1994.  There were no sales of the  Company's  products  to report for the fiscal
periods of either  year.  Management  believes the lack of sales of products has


                                        8

<PAGE>



been  attributed  to the  inadequacies  or  cost  inefficiencies  of  projection
systems.  In addition,  the Company's abilities to adequately develop and market
its products has been  severely  limited over the past several  years due to the
lack  of  adequate  operating  capital.  As a  result  of the  formation  of the
Partnership,  significant engineering  developments have been accomplished which
the Company  believes will  substantially  improve the projection  aspect of the
system,  as well as refine  the fiber  optic  screen  and other  display  screen
technologies.  The Company hopes that additional capital will be raised from the
sale of partnership units for continued  development and aggressive marketing of
its products through the Partnership.

     The increase in net loss for the quarter and six months ended  December 31,
1995 from the same  periods  of the prior  fiscal  year is  primarily  due to an
increase in R&D and G&A  expenses  partially  offset by a reduction  in interest
income and royalty  fees.  R&D  expenses  for the  quarter and six months  ended
increased by $50,972 and $28,486, respectively, from 1994 to 1995, for continued
development  of the  Company's  products and the addition of one  employee.  G&A
expenses for the quarter and six months ended  increased by $41,756 and $76,234,
respectively,   relating   primarily  to:  1)  increased   interest  expense  on
outstanding  debt,  2) increased  rent and utilities for  additional  space,  3)
increased  salaries,  consulting,  accounting  and legal expenses for day to day
operations, completing the Company's filings required by regulatory agencies and
preserving  and  protecting  the Company's  technology.  The Company  reported a
reduction in royalty revenues and interest income for the quarter and six months
ended December 31, 1995 from the same periods of the prior fiscal year of $4,429
and  $8,859,  respectively,  and  $986 and  $2,986,  respectively.  The  Company
continued  development of its  technologies  through the partnership  during the
first fiscal quarter of 1996. Approximately $89,000 and $148,000 was expended by
the partnership on research and  development  during the quarter and six months,
respectively.

     Management of the Company is presently unable to predict with any degree of
certainty  when, if ever, the Company might obtain  revenues from the commercial
sale of  products  through  the  Partnership.  Such  revenue is  dependent  upon
continued  refinement of the display screen  technologies and raising additional
working  capital.  The Partnership  hopes to finalize the prototype and begin to
manufacturing  the  product  for sale,  initially  to the large  display  screen
markets, in 1996.


Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

     The Company has been totally dependent on the ability of the Partnership to
obtain  capital to fund  operations for nearly two years and expects to continue
to be in the  foreseeable  future.  At September 30, 1995, the Company  reported
negative  net worth of  $458,068  and  negative  working  capital  of  $124,376.
Additional  capital  will be required  for  administrative  expenses,  continued
development of the product,  including completion of a prototype,  manufacturing
start up costs  and  marketing  the  product.  The  Partnership  hopes to obtain
additional  capital  from the sale of  Partnership  units under the  Partnership
Agreement or  additional  loans from the managing  partner or limited  partners.
Management of the Company  believes the partners  continued  willingness to fund
the Partnership is dependent upon  acceptance of:  completed  prototype  stages;
continued development schedules; a marketing plan; and, other factors.



                                        9

     The Company's continued existence is dependent upon its ability to: perfect
the  Partnership's  interest in the technology and develop the technology into a
commercially  viable product;  successfully assist the Partnership to market the
product;  obtain  additional  sources of funding  through  outside  financing or
equity  investments;   and  achieve  and  maintain  profitable  operations.  The
Company's  efforts  will  continue to be focused on further  development  of the
projection  system and  screen,  and on  raising  additional  capital.  Although
management believes it will be able to achieve these objectives, there can be no
assurance that the Company of the Partnership will be able to obtain  additional
capital or sell its products on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Company
and the Partnership.

     In  conjunction  with  formation  of the  Partnership,  the Company sold an
aggregate of 2,991,474 shares of Series B preferred stock.  Qualified  investors
executed an  agreement  to acquire the Series B  preferred  stock for  aggregate
consideration  of $350,000,  or $.117 per share.  As of December  31, 1995,  all
amounts due the Company under the Agreement had been received. Proceeds from the
issuance of the Series B preferred  stock were  advanced to and disbursed by the
Partnership.  These funds have been used for  organizational  and administrative
costs of the  Partnership,  preparation  and filing of the Company's  annual and
quarterly reports and other general and administrative  expenses of the Company,
and on continued research and development of the fiber optic screen,  projection
and other related display screen  technologies.  Amounts paid by the Partnership
for Company  expenses  reduce  advances due the Company by the  Partnership.  At
December  31, 1995,  the balance of advances due the Company by the  Partnership
was approximately  $228,000.  For financial reporting purposes, the advances due
the Company by the  Partnership  are offset by the liability due the Partnership
under the research and development arrangement.

     Cash flows from financing  activities for the quarters and six months ended
December  31, 1995 and 1994  consisted  entirely of the increase in the research
and development liability of $189,487 and $334,047,  respectively,  for 1995 and
$103,584 and $242,075,  respectively,  for 1994. Total cash flows from financing
activities for both 1995 and 1994 were used completely for operating activities.
