NOTE 3

common shares outstanding and the potentially dilutive effective of stock
options during the respective periods. Stock option dilution is computed under
the Treasury Stock method using the average market price of the Company's common
stock.



                            PHOTO CONTROL CORPORATION
           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OPERATIONS

Sales for the first quarter ended March 31, 1997, were $2,246,000, a decrease of
31.1% and $1,014,000 from the first quarter in 1996. The decrease in sales was
primarily due to decline of OEM and dealer sales in the flash equipment product
line of $688,000. The camera product line accounts for the balance of the
decrease in sales. A new zoom lens camera has been introduced and will be
available for shipment in June. The volume of sales that will be realized from
the new zoom lens camera is uncertain. Sales of the third product line,
printers, remained level with 1996. Sales for the second quarter of 1997 are
expected to be below sales for the second quarter of 1996; however, this trend
is not necessarily indicative of year-end results.

The gross profit margin for the first quarter of 1997 decreased to 18.1%
compared to 25.7% in the first quarter of 1996 reflecting the under-absorption
of fixed overhead due to the 31.1% sales volume decline.

Research, development and engineering expenses decreased by $15,000 for the
first quarter of 1997 compared to the first quarter of 1996 as the result of
employing fewer engineering personnel.

Marketing and administrative expenses increased $21,000 in the first quarter of
1997 as compared to the first quarter of 1996 reflecting additional staff
personnel.

Interest expense decreased by $12,000 compared to the first quarter of 1996 due
to lower outstanding debt.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash decreased $597,000 to $139,000 since December 31, 1996. Operations for the
quarter resulted in $517,000 of negative cash flow. Although at March 31, 1997
there was no bank borrowing, as of April 29, 1997 the Company has borrowed
$300,000 under the $1,500,000 line of credit. The Company believes that it has
borrowing capacity in addition to its $1,500,000 line of credit if necessary.

Since July 1989 a total of $2,000,000 has been authorized for the stock
repurchase program and $388,000 remains available at March 31, 1997 for
additional repurchases.

The Company believes that its cash flow from operations and available borrowing
capacity will be sufficient to finance operations and capital requirements.


FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS
