ATTACHMENT TO FORM 12B-25
OF
NOVA TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
PART IV (3)
It is anticipated that the Registrant's earnings statement to be included with
its Form 10-Q will reflect a net loss for the quarter of approximately $340,000,
compared to a net loss for the corresponding period in its last fiscal year of
$250,000. The change in results of operations is due primarily to increases in
general and administrative, interest and manufacturing overhead expenses which
were partially offset by increased sales resulting from the acquisition of Comed
Systems, Inc. (now known as Vivax Medical Corp.) on June 14, 1996.
