NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by DCX, INC. without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. DCX, INC. believes that the disclosures
are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of
management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain
all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position as of March 31,
1997, the consolidated results of its operations for the six-periods ended March
31, 1997, and 1996 and statements of cash flows for the six-month periods then
ended.
The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in the annual
report of September 30, 1996, filed on Form 10-KSB and the audited consolidated
financial statements therein with the accompanying notes thereto. While
management believes the procedures followed in preparing these consolidated
financial statements are reasonable, the accuracy of the amounts are in some
respects dependent upon the facts that will exist, and procedures that will be
accomplished by DCX, INC. later in the year.
The consolidated results of operations for the six-month period ended March 31,
1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year ending September 30, 1997.
New Accounting Pronouncements
On March 3, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings Per Share" (SFAS
NO. 128). This pronouncement provides a different method of calculating earnings
per share than is currently used in accordance with Accounting Principles Board
Opinion (APB) No. 15, "Earnings per Share." SFAS 128 provides for the
calculation of "Basic" and "Diluted" earnings per share. Basic earnings per
share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to
common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of
securities that could share in the earnings of an entity, similar to fully
diluted earnings per share. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 128 in 1998 and its
implementation is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated
financial statements.
(2) Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable contain amounts computed under the cost-to-cost method to
determine percentage of completion as described in the Form 10-KSB for September
30, 1996.
(3) Provision for Income Taxes
At the beginning of the fiscal year the Company had net operating loss
carryforwards of $2,663,000 with expirations through 2011. At March 31, 1997,
the amount of the net operating loss carryforward balance is estimated at
$2,385,135. The Company expects to incur a minimal amount of alternative minimum
tax for the fiscal year. Since the Company is unable to determine that deferred
tax assets exceeding tax liabilities are more likely than not to be realized, it
has recorded a valuation allowance equal to the excess deferred tax assets.
(4) Litigation
Claim for Breach of Contract. Following the termination of merger discussions
between the Company and an unrelated company, Airtech International Corporation
("Airtech"), the Company filed a claim for resulting damages of approximately
$400,000. During January 1997, Airtech filed an answer to the claim denying the
Company's claim and counterclaiming for breach of contract, fraud and negligence
claiming damages exceeding $27 million. The cognizant district court has
recorded the stipulation of all parties dismissing all claims with prejudice.

<PAGE>
Terminated Contracts. As reported in the Form 10-K for September 30, 1995, and
Form 10-KSB for September 30, 1996, the Company and the Defense Logistics Agency
(DLA) agreed to a final settlement in November, 1995, on two of three terminated
contracts. The last partial payment, therefor, was received in January, 1996,
and, accordingly, was recorded in the prior year's data appearing in this
report.
A third contract with DLA required the Company to design, develop test and
manufacture light sets to a specified schedule. Testing of the lights was
subcontracted; scheduling delays caused the Company to miss a required
submission date for the testing and resulted in termination of the contract in
1988. Vigorous litigation asserting the delay was government caused were pursued
to the Untied States Supreme Court where the Company's petition for certiorari
was denied in November, 1996. The Company had recorded a reserve of $521,000 for
the loss in June, 1996; which is believed to be sufficient for the possible
reprocurement costs related to the difference between the Company's contract
price and the price incurred by DLA from the next lowest vendor as provided for
in the Federal Acquisition Regulations. The Company has filed with the Armed
Services Board of Contract Appeals a reinstatement of its appeal of the
propriety of the assessed reprocurement costs which had been held in abeyance
pending the outcome at the Supreme Court. While the discovery process has begun,
no hearing date has been set as yet. (See also Item 3, Legal Matters, and Note
5, Litigation, to the financial statements in Form 10-KSB for September 30,
1996.)
(5) Lease Obligations
The Company leases various equipment under capital leases that expire through
June 2000 as noted in Note 7 to the Financial Statements in Form 10-KSB,
September 30, 1996.
(6) Key Man Life Insurance Proceeds.
On January 7, 1997, the Company recorded $400,000 of accounts receivable related
to the proceeds of two Company owned key man life insurance policies on a
director of the Company. All proceeds were received during the current quarter.
(7) Series A, 6% Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock.
Dividends on the convertible preferred stock accrue quarterly at a rate of 6%
per annum and are payable at the election of the Company in cash or in
additional shares of convertible preferred stock. During the current quarter the
holders of convertible preferred stock became entitled to dividends of $7,164.
The Company's Board of Directors has not yet declared the dividend payable and,
accordingly, no related transaction appears in the financial statements.
Subsequent to the end of the current quarter, the holder of Series A, 6%
Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock converted 150 shares into
common stock in accordance with the issue agreement. Accordingly, the Company
issued 139,770 shares of its common stock in exchange.
(8) Employment Agreements.
On March 28, 1997, the Company approved employment agreements for three officers
of the Company which were executed on April 1, 1997. The agreements, are filed
as exhibits 10.6, 10.7, and 10.8 with this report and set base salary for the
President & CEO, Vice President & General Manager, and the Vice President -
Finance & Administration of $120,000; $70,000, and $60,000, respectively. The
agreements grant fully vested nonqualified stock options as incentives to the
officers of 200,000; 70,000 and 70,000 respectively and further grant the
officers 180,000; 50,000 and 50,000 of performance stock options requiring the
attainment of certain goals. The incentive and performance options are priced at
the Company's NASDAQ bid price at close of business on January 2, 1997, which
was $1.125. The employment agreements provide for certain cash bonus payments
upon meeting defined performance goals. The executives are entitled to
continuation of base compensation for a period of three years, two years and two
years, respectively, if employment is terminated for any reason other than
death, disability, cause, voluntary resignation or the expiration of the term of
the employment agreement; otherwise termination for the stated reasons results
in payment of base salary, performance and incentive bonuses for 18 months, 12
months and 12 months, respectively.

<PAGE>
(9) Accounting for Preferred Stock Convertible at a Discount to the Market.
The statement of operations has been amended to give effect for a discount of
25% of the common stock which would result and is deemed to be additional
dividend to the holders of the Company's 6% convertible preferred stock sold on
November 12, 1996. The convertible preferred stock is convertible into common
stock at a 25% discount to the five day average market price of the common stock
immediately preceding the conversion date which was lower than the five day
average market price at the date of placement. This difference, $166,666, on the
first possible date of conversion is an imputed discount and is deemed to be
additional dividend available to the holders of the preferred stock which
reduces income available to common stock shareholders. Accordingly, it was
reduced from cumulative net income to arrive at net income or loss attributable
to common shareholders.
--------------------------------
PART I, ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(Amended and replaced in its entirety with the following)
Financial Condition:
Liquidity.
Cash and marketable securities increased $218,943 to $428,580 from $209,637 at
September 30, 1996, primarily as a result of payments received from keyman life
insurance policies carried on a director of the Company and from proceeds of the
sale of convertible preferred stock of the Company.
The Company presently has working capital of $860,967 as compared to $1,377,650
at March 31, 1996, and to $56,776 at the beginning of the fiscal year. The
primary cause is the accrual of $521,000 for litigation settlement related to
the denial of certiorari by the U.S. Supreme Court on the third terminated
contract.
The Company's current ratio, the ratio of total current assets to total current
liabilities, decreased to 1.32:1 from 1.94:1 a year ago and is improved over
1.02:1 at September 30, 1996.
Capital Resources.
During its first fiscal quarter the Company sold a total of 500 shares of
convertible preferred stock which resulted in net funding of $450,000. During
the second quarter it received the proceeds from $400,000 of keyman life
insurance policies carried on a director of the Company.
During the second fiscal quarter the Company retained Transition Partners Ltd
(TPL) to advise the Company in certain matters and to assist in capital
formation efforts. TPL has developed plans addressing the consolidation of the
company's three notes payable into one instrument; the Company is confident the
consolidation will take place and meet the requirement for the June 3, 1997,
balloon payment to the Small Business Administration.
Results of Operations:
First Half of Fiscal Year 1997
During the first six months of fiscal year 1997 net sales increased slightly by
$88,503 or 4 percent, over the same period of the prior year. Cost of sales was
2,059,827, or 81 percent of sales, and resulted in a gross profit of $477,337,
or 19 percent of sales, a decrease from 29 percent for same period of the prior
year. Decrease in gross profit occurred due to learning curve associated with
complex new products in certain new contracts and increased hourly labor costs.
Sales increase resulted from the growing production requirements to meet
increased demand in the defense industry.
General and administrative expenses of $531,631 for the current period increased
from $488,122 a year prior and reflect the increased costs of consulting and
legal advice during the period. Other income had an increase of $389,702 as a
result of proceeds from keyman life insurance policies.

<PAGE>
Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 1997.
Second quarter sales for fiscal 1997 of $1,672,052 increased $127,702, or eight
percent, over the same quarter of the prior year. Cost of sales was $1,369,173,
or 82 percent of sales, and resulted in a gross profit of $302,879, or 18
percent of sales versus 27 percent for the same period of the prior year. The
decrease in gross profit was attributable to the learning curve effect
associated with new and more complex products, increased hourly labor costs and
slightly tighter margins on a contract coming into full scale production.
Management actions to stem unnecessary costs reduced general and administrative
expenses for the quarter by $48,513 or 39 percent. Interest expense has
increased somewhat because of imputed interest expense on leased equipment.
Sales increased slightly during the quarter over the prior year's quarter;
however, because of increased cost of sales, income from operations decreased by
43 percent. On the other hand, the Company recorded other income of $403,587
which propelled net income to $459,122, or $.10 per share, as compared to the
prior year's net income of $134,318, or $.03 per share.
Contract Backlog
The Company's manufacturing operation has active funded contracts and awarded
work amounting to $8.5 million as compared to an approximate $9.7 million
backlog with $5.5 million of uncompleted work a year prior. The current backlog
contains approximately $4.2 million of uncompleted work. Deliveries are
scheduled over the next 36 months. The Company is aggressively bidding
opportunities with prime contractors for defense opportunities and sends its
technical staff to meet personally with program managers in order to more
competitively meet their requirements. The Company is confident that during the
ensuing year these projects will result in additional orders as during the past
fiscal year. In addition, the Company continues to be invited to bid on more
projects with new and existing customers.
