                                    PART I

ITEM 1.           BUSINESS
 
         (a) General Development of Business.

     CompuSonics Video Corporation  ("Registrant")  was organized under the laws
of the  State of  Colorado  on  August  14,  1985.  The  Registrant's  principal
activities since inception have been devoted to obtaining equity capital for the
development of a digital video recording and playback system with a view towards
its manufacture and marketing.
 
     The  Registrant has no substantial  operations,  research and  development,
earnings, cash flows, product development or sources of financing.

     On  December  13,  1985,  the  Registrant  concluded  a public  offering of
30,000,000  Units, each Unit consisting of one share of its common stock and one
Class A Warrant, and received net proceeds of $727,971.

     On November 16, 1987, the Registrant acquired The Tyler-Shaw Corporation, a
New York corporation ("Tyler-Shaw"), which was engaged in the business of direct
mail marketing.

     Effective July 31, 1992, Tyler-Shaw was considered inactive. Tyler-Shaw has
no  substantial  operations,  research and  development,  earnings,  cash flows,
product development or sources of financing.


    (b) Financial Information About Industry Segments.

     Prior to the year  ended  July 31,  1992,  the  Registrant  engaged  in two
business  segments:  (1)  Development and marketing of a digital video recording
and playback  system,  and (2) Direct mail  marketing.  All of the  Registrant's
revenues for the past four fiscal years have been from the direct mail marketing
segment.  The  Registrant  had no revenues  for the current  year or for the two
immediately  preceding  years and  considers its direct mail  marketing  segment
inactive.


    (c) Narrative Description of Business.

    (c) (1) (i):
                                         1

THE COMPUSONICS VIDEO SYSTEM

     The Registrant has developed a system to make video recordings,  digitalize
video images and playback digital data on a television monitor. Digitalizing and
random access capabilities represent significant  improvements over conventional
analog recorders.

     Conventional   analog   video   recorders   convert   electrical   impulses
representing  visual  images  into wave forms  which are then stored on magnetic
tape or disk.  On  playback,  wave  forms are  converted  back  into  electrical
impulses which are converted to visual images through a television  picture tube
or similar device. In an analog system,  the accuracy of the reproduced image is
dependent  upon the  quality of the tape or disk,  as well as the quality of the
playback system itself.  Further,  the noise generated by the surface defects on
the tape or disk is apparent when the image is played back.

     Advances in computer  technology,  particularly  in digital memory devices,
have been applied in the  development of both audio and video digital  recording
and playback systems.  CompuSonics Corporation,  owner of 7% of the Common Stock
of the  Registrant,  has produced audio digital  systems which utilize  advanced
microcomputer  chips to record and reproduce audio signals using its proprietary
digital audio  technology,  known as "CSX". The Registrant has exclusive license
to utilize the CSX technology in the development and production of its products.
The motion  picture  industry  currently  uses digital image  processors for the
creation of special effects and picture enhancements. These image processors use
small  digital  memories  to  store  and  manipulate   images  which  have  been
digitalized and transferred from analog sources.

     In the Registrant's  proposed system, video signals would be converted into
numerical  data  representing  video  images.  Data  would  then be  stored in a
temporary  buffer  memory.  Each video frame image would be  processed,  through
licensed CSX technology, to reduce the amount of data to the minimum required to
produce  an image  for  playback  closely  resembling  the  image  as  initially
recorded.  Data representing the video image would be stored on a floppy disk or
other  computer  information  storage  disk.  Playback of the digital data would
occur on a television monitor with a compatible signal receiving capability. The
accompanying  high fidelity audio signal could be routed to a suitably  equipped
stereo  television set or through a conventional  stereo system  adjacent to the
monitor.

Proposed Products

     The  Registrant  has no developed  products at this time. The digital video
system  that the  Registrant  was  developing  consisted  of a group of proposed
products that would  record,  playback,  edit and transmit  video data and audio
data in connection with the video.

     The Registrant will most likely attempt to sublicense  manufacturing rights
or enter into production  contracts with  non-affiliated  parties.  There are no
current prospects for such sublicenses or contracts and the prospects of success
cannot be determined.


Marketing

     The Registrant has had no marketing activities since 1990.


DIRECT MAIL MARKETING

     Tyler-Shaw's  business consisted of offering specialized products to direct
mail list owners through a process called syndication.
 
     Tyler-Shaw's  president  terminated  employment  in March,  1991,  and it's
Pennsylvania  office was closed.  A  short-term  arrangement  with a  consultant
lapsed in July,  1991 and hasn't been  renewed.  Since that time the company has
been inactive.

     (c) (1) (ii) Except for its proposed products listed above,  there has been
no public  announcement  of, and the  Registrant  has not otherwise made public,
information  about a new  product or  industry  segment  that would  require the
investment  of a  material  amount  of the  assets  of the  Registrant  or  that
otherwise is material.

     (c) (1)  (iii)  The  Registrant  anticipates  that  any  production  of new
products  will  be  organized  by  second-party   marketers  and  manufacturers,
therefore  the  sources  and  availability  of raw  materials  are not  material
concerns.

     (c) (l)(iv) The  Registrant  holds all rights to United  States and certain
foreign  patent  and  patent  applications  for a digital  video  recording  and
playback  system.  On July 21,  1987,  patent  number  4,682,248  was issued the
company  with three claims of the  Registrant  being  allowed.  On July 5, 1988,
patent  number  4,755,889  was  issued to the  company  with four  claims  being
allowed.  There can be no assurance  that  patents will be issued in  connection
with the remaining  applications.  If future patents are granted and any of them
are tested in litigation, such patents may not afford protection as broad as the
claims made in the patent applications. Furthermore, expense required to enforce
patent rights against infringers would be costly.




                                       3
<PAGE>

     However,  the Registrant believes the patent protection  obtained,  and any
further  issuances,  will greatly assist efforts to protect its technology  from
being copied.

     The  Registrant  has also  been  granted  a limited  exclusive  license  by
CompuSonics  Corporation to utilize its  proprietary  digital audio  technology,
CSX, for the limited purpose of incorporating  that technology into its proposed
video  system to process the audio  portions of recorded  material.  CompuSonics
Corporation,  a Colorado corporation,  and a shareholder of the Registrant,  has
been  engaged in  marketing  and  promoting  its CSX  Technology  licensing  and
engineering consulting services on a reduced and limited basis.



     (c)(l)(v) The Registrant's business is not seasonally affected.

     (c) (1) (vi) The  Registrant  has no marketable  product and as such is not
required to carry significant amounts of inventory.

     (c) (l) (vii) The  Registrant  has  attempted  to  market  its  technology.
Therefore  the success of the  Registrant  is dependent  upon the ability of the
Registrant  to locate  customers  who will  purchase  the  proposed  products or
technology  offered  by the  Registrant.  There  can be no  guarantee  that such
customers can be located.

     The subsidiary,  Tyler-Shaw, acted as a sales representative and syndicator
of consumer  products  through  direct mail  marketing  programs  principally in
conjunction with major credit card companies.  Tyler-Shaw is currently  inactive
and the success of the subsidiary is doubtful.
 
     (c) (1) (viii) There is no backlog at this time.

     (c) (1) (ix) No material portion of the Registrant's business is subject to
renegotiation  of profits or  termination  of contracts or  subcontracts  at the
election of the government.

     (c) (l)(x) The  Registrant  competes with all companies  engaged in design,
manufacture and marketing of digital video recording and playback  systems.  The
Registrant's  primary  competition in the home entertainment  market will be the
Video Cassette  Recorder  ("VCR").  VCRs are  manufactured  and sold by numerous
large, well financed companies with established  distribution  channels.  Rental
and sale of video  cassettes  is also well  established  and there are  numerous
outlets for  pre-produced  and blank video  cassettes.  Costs for purchasing new
VCRs have been decreasing  since their market  introduction and VCRs are readily
available  for  rent.  It is  anticipated  that  the  Registrant's  DVR  will be
significantly more expensive to purchase than a VCR. The Registrant  anticipates
that its system  would  compete with the VCR on the basis of the high quality of
its video and audio on playback  and  because of the  ability to more  precisely
index and locate selected material for playback.  The Registrant is aware of the
development  of systems  similar to its own. There can be no assurance that such
systems will not soon be marketed by  competitors.  It can be expected that most
of the  Registrant's  competitors  will have  extensive  experience  and possess
financial,  technological and personnel resources substantially greater than the
Registrant's.


                                       4
<PAGE>

     The Registrant's subsidiary,  Tyler-Shaw, who is currently inactive, was in
competition  with all  companies  engaged in direct  mail  marketing.  It can be
expected that most of the  Registrant's  direct mail marketing  competitors will
have extensive  experience and possess  financial,  technological  and personnel
resources substantially greater than the Registrant's.

     (c)(l)(xi)  During the period from August 1, 1989,  through  July 31, 1995,
the Registrant did not expend any funds on research and development.

     (c)  (l)(xii) The  Registrant  is not  materially  affected by the federal,
state and local  provisions  which have been enacted or adopted  regulating  the
discharge  of  materials  into the  environment  or  otherwise  relating  to the
protection of the environment.

     (c)(l)  (xiii) As of  October  1,  1996,  neither  the  Registrant  nor the
subsidiary had full time employees.


     (d) Financial  Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export
Sales.

     The  Registrant has no material  international  operations or direct export
sales.



ITEM 2.           PROPERTIES

     The  Registrant  has been using  space,  at no  charge,  in the office of a
related entity for the purposes of administration and development.


ITEM 3.           LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     The  Registrant  is not a  present  party  to any  material  pending  legal
proceedings and no such proceedings were known as of the end of the fiscal year.

ITEM 4.           SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

     No matter was submitted to a vote of the Registrant's  shareholders  during
the fourth quarter ended July 31, 1996.

ITEM 7.           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                  AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Working  capital  decreased  by $86,641  for the period from August 1, 1995
through July 31,  1996.  This was caused by the net loss for the year of $63,576
and the unrealized  loss  difference on investments of $23,065 from the previous
year.
 
     Net cash used for  operations  was $21,770 which was primarily  expended to
pay patent fees of $14,806;  management  fees of $1,605 to a related company and
professional  fees of $5,666 for auditing  services and stock transfer fees. The
funds were provided by loans in the amount of $22,000 from a related company.

     In accordance  with SFAS 115, the Registrant  reported the 28,475 shares of
Williams  Controls,  Inc.  common stock (Nasdaq  "WMCO") at fair market value at
closing  price  on  July  31,  1996 of  $71,188.  The  stock  is  classified  as
available-for-sale securities and originally cost $25,035.

     In the past the Registrant  has relied on a related  company to provide the
working funds it has required but there is no assurance  that this will continue
in future years.

<PAGE>


     The Board of  Directors  of the  Registrant,  in October  1985,  adopted an
Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") for key employees.  Options  covering a
total of  7,000,000  shares of Common  Stock are  available  for grant under the
Plan. The Plan is  administered  by the Board of Directors,  who are responsible
for establishing the criteria to be applied in administering the Plan. The Board
of Directors is empowered to determine the total number of options to be granted
to any one  optionee,  provided  that the maximum fair market value of the stock
for which any employee may be granted  options during a single calendar year may
not exceed  $100,000  plus one-half of the excess of $100,000 over the aggregate
fair market value of stock for which an employee was granted  options in each of
the three preceding  calendar years. The exercise price of the options cannot be
less than the  market  value of the Common  Stock on the date of grant  (110% of
market  value in the case of options to an employee who owns ten percent or more
of the Registrant's voting stock) and no option can have a term in excess of ten
years. In the event of certain  changes or  transactions  such as a stock split,
stock dividend or merger, the Board of Directors has the discretion to make such
adjustments in the number and class of shares covered by an option or the option
price  as  they  deem   appropriate.   Options   granted   under  the  Plan  are
nontransferable  during the life of the  optionee  and  terminate  within  three
months upon the cessation of the  optionee's  employment,  unless  employment is
terminated for cause in which case the option terminates  immediately.  Only one
option has been granted under the plan and it has lapsed.

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

(a) Transactions with Management and Others.

License Agreement

     On September  17, 1985,  the  Registrant  and  CompuSonics  Corporation,  a
shareholder  of the  Registrant,  entered into a license  agreement  pursuant to
which  the  Registrant  received  an  exclusive  license  to the  digital  audio
technology,  CSX, owned by CompuSonics  Corporation  for the limited  purpose of
integrating  the  audio  technology  into  the  Registrant's   proposed  digital
recording and playback system. The agreement limited the licensed rights for use
only in connection with the video system. No continuing royalty payments or fees
are  to be  paid.  The  Registrant  is not in  violation  of any of the  license
restrictions.  The  license  may  not  be  transferred  by the  Registrant.  The
technology licensed allows the Registrant to utilize digital audio in its system
rather than an analog-based audio.  CompuSonics  Corporation has been developing
the licensed  digital  audio  technology  since its  inception  and is currently
engaged in marketing and promoting its CSX Technology  licensing and engineering
consulting services on a limited basis.


Assignment Agreement and Issuance of Preferred Stock

     The  Registrant  issued  300,000  shares  of  Series A  Preferred  Stock to
CompuSonics  Corporation  which were converted in September 1988 into 30,000,000
shares of Common Stock in return for the assignment by  CompuSonics  Corporation
of its rights under United States and certain foreign patent  applications,  and
all rights to a digital video recording and playback  system.  The digital video
system  patent  application  was prepared  with the  assistance  of  CompuSonics
Corporation's  president.  Patent  application fees and patent counsel fees were
also paid by  CompuSonics  Corporation.  The value of the  services and the fees
advanced total $34,500 of which $19,000 was expended for patent application fees
and patent  attorney fees and $15,500  represents  salary expense for assistance
provided  by  CompuSonics  Corporation  personnel.   The  assignment  of  patent
application  and  all  other  rights  to the  digital  video  system  gives  the
Registrant the right to develop the technology assigned. CompuSonics Corporation
has relinquished the right to develop this video technology.

Loans

     The Registrant  previously had outstanding notes and accounts payable to an
affiliated party and shareholder,  Equitex,  Inc. In August 1993, Equitex,  Inc.
transferred  all its  interest  in the  Registrant  including  these  notes  and
accounts  payable  to an  affiliated  party.  The  notes  and  accounts  payable
totalling  $46,056 with  interest as of July 31, 1996,  are  unsecured  and bear
interest at the rate of 10 and 12% per annum, and are due upon demand.

<PAGE>

     The Registrant and its subsidiary  Tyler-Shaw together,  in addition to the
above  stated  amounts,  have  outstanding  notes  and  accounts  payable  to an
affiliated party totaling  $521,123 with interest as of July 31, 1996. The loans
are at 10.25%  interest.  These  loans  are  collaterized  by all the  assets of
Tyler-Shaw  and the  Registrant.  The Registrant  also has an outstanding  notes

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT



Board of Directors and Stockholders
CompuSonics Video Corporation and Subsidiaries


     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CompuSonics
Video Corporation and Subsidiaries as of July 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related
consolidated  statements of operations,  changes in stockholders'  deficit,  and
cash flows for the years ended July 31,  1996,  1995 and 1994.  These  financial
statements   are  the   responsibility   of  the   Company's   management.   Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

     We conducted  our audits in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion,  the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in  all  material   respects,   the  financial  position  of  CompuSonics  Video
Corporation and  Subsidiaries as of July 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 and the results
of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

     The accompanying  financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the financial  statements,
the Company  has  incurred  net losses of  $63,576,  $57,605 and $55,673 for the
years ended July 31, 1996, 1995, 1994, respectively, and as of July 31, 1996 had
a working  capital  deficiency of $552,276 and net  stockholders'  deficiency of
$552,276.  The Company  earned no commission  income during the years ended July
31,  1996,  1995 and  1994 and is  dependent  upon a  related  party to fund its
working capital.  Those conditions raise  substantial  doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.




                                       F-1

     Our  audits  were made for the  purpose  of forming an opinion on the basic
financial  statements  taken as a whole.  The schedule on F-14 is presented  for
purposes of complying with rules of the  Securities and Exchange  Commission and
are not a required  part of the basic  financial  statements.  This schedule has
been  subjected  to the auditing  procedures  applied in our audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in all material respects
the  financial  data  required to be set forth  therein in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  July 31, 1996


Note 1.           Significant Accounting Policies

         A.       Business History

     CompuSonics  Video  Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated  under the
laws of the State of Colorado on August 14, 1985, for the purpose of developing,
manufacturing  and marketing a digital video recording and playback  system.  On
January  20,  1988,  the  Company  acquired  all  the  outstanding  stock  of TS
Industries,  Inc.  ("TSI")  in a  transaction  accounted  for  as a  pooling  of
interests.  (See Note 2). TSI was  incorporated in the State of Colorado on July
28,  1987,  but  did  not  commence  operations  until  the  acquisition  of The
Tyler-Shaw  Corporation,  a New York Corporation  ("TSC"). TSI acquired TSC from
Edward B. Rubin,  its sole  shareholder,  under an agreement dated July 23, 1987
(the "Agreement")  between Mr. Rubin,  Equitex,  Inc. ("Equitex") and TICO, Inc.
("TICO").  On November 1, 1987, Equitex and TICO assigned all their rights under
the  Agreement  to TSI.  Equitex  and TICO  each  owned  50% of the  issued  and
outstanding  capital  stock of TSI,  prior to the  exchange of TSI stock for the
Company's stock. This acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting (See Note 2). TSC acted as a syndicator of consumer  products through
direct mail marketing programs. As of July 31, 1992, TSC was considered inactive
and all  relating  assets were  written off along with the reversal of its prior
accruals.

     CompuSonics  Video  Corporation has no proven products or operations in the
digital equipment area.

     At this time, Tyler Shaw is without any operations.

         B.       Consolidation

     The consolidated  financial  statements include the consolidated  financial
information of TSI since that entity's  inception.  This consolidated  financial
information of TSI includes the operations of its wholly-owned subsidiary,  TSC,
since its  acquisition  on  November  16,  1987.  All  significant  intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


         C.       Patents

     Patent costs for the years ended July 31, 1991 and prior were  amortized on
the  straight-line  method over the  estimated  useful life of the patents of 17
years.  Due  to  the  lack  of a  marketable  product,  research  and  marketing
development,  and the lack of adequate  capital to protect and take advantage of
these  patents,  effective  with the year ended July 31, 1992,  all  unamortized
patent costs were fully  amortized.  All patent  maintenance  costs are expensed
when incurred. Patents were issued on July 21, 1987 and July 5, 1988. During the
year ended July 31, 1996 the cost to maintain  these  patents and record them in
foreign countries was $14,806 which was recorded as patent fees expense.

                                  July 31, 1996

      D.       Income Taxes

     The Company and it's wholly owned subsidiaries file a consolidated  federal
income  tax  return.  Due to the  Company's  net  operating  losses  there is no
provision for federal income taxes in these financial statements.

     Tax  credits  will  be  reflected  in  the  income   statement   under  the
flow-through method as a deduction of income taxes in the year in which they are
used. At July 31, 1996, the Company's carryforwards are as follows:

                                                                         General

  2009             55,673               55,664              -0-              -0-
  2010             57,605               57,499              -0-              -0-

     The  primary  difference  between  the  book  and  tax net  operating  loss
carryforwards  result from differences in depreciation and amortization  methods
and the treatment of unrealized loss of market value of certain investments.

         E.       Net Loss Per Common Share

     The net loss per common  share is computed by dividing the net loss for the
period by the weighted average number of shares  outstanding.  All "cheap stock"
issued prior to the public offering is included in the computation as if it were
outstanding from inception.

     shares of  preferred  stock,  with classes and terms as  designated  by the
     Company,  may be issued and  outstanding  at any point in time. The Company
     had  300,000  authorized  shares of Series A  Convertible  Preferred  Stock
     ($.001 par value)  outstanding at July 31, 1988. In September 1988, all the
     outstanding  shares  were  converted  at $.001 per share,  at the  holder's
     option, into 30,000,000 shares of common stock.

         B.       Public Offering of Common Stock

          In December 1985 the Company completed a public offering of 30,000,000
     units,  each consisting of one share of the Company's  common stock,  $.001
     par value, and one Class A purchase  warrant.  One Class A warrant entitles
     the holder to purchase one share of common stock plus a Class B warrant for
     $.05 during the twelve month period originally ending November 27, 1986 and
     currently  extended  to May 15,  1997.  The  Company may redeem the Class A
     warrants at $.001 per warrant if certain conditions are met.

          One Class B warrant  entitles  the holder to purchase one share of the
     Company's  common  stock  for  $.08 per  share  for a  twelve-month  period
     originally ended November 27, 1987 and currently  extended to May 15, 1997.
     The offering was made  pursuant to an  underwriting  agreement  whereby the
     units were sold by the  Underwriter on a "best efforts,  all or none" basis
     at a price of $.03 per unit. The Underwriter received a commission of $.003
     per unit and a nonaccountable expense allowance of $27,000.

          The public  offering was  successfully  completed on December 13, 1985
     and the Company  received  $727,971 as the net  offering  proceeds  for the
     30,000,000  units sold.  As of July 31, 1996,  6,250 Class A warrants  have
     been exercised for total proceeds of $313.
