LARSON DAVIS INCORPORATED
THIS COMPREHENSIVE AMENDMENT IS A PART OF AND SHOULD BE READ
IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE PROSPECTUS OF LARSON DAVIS INCORPORATED
(THE "COMPANY") DATED AUGUST 1, 1995 (THE "PROSPECTUS").
This comprehensive amendment incorporates and supersedes the
supplements to the Prospectus dated August 16, September 1,
September 8, September 20, and September 22, 1995. Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein have the same meaning as set
forth in the Prospectus.
The Company's Report on Form 10-KSB
The Prospectus is hereby amended to include the Company's annual
report on form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 1995, as filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. A copy of the report
is attached hereto.
Warrant Exercise
The Company has received an aggregate of $3,000,000 from the
exercise of all of the $2.50 and $3.50 Warrants to purchase the
1,000,000 shares of Common Stock subject to such Warrants. The
Company agreed to grant the holders of the $2.50 Warrants
additional warrants to acquire the same number of shares at $4.50
per share of Common Stock (the "$4.50 Warrants") in consideration
of the early exercise of the $2.50 Warrants. As disclosed in the
Prospectus, the Company has agreed to pay 6% of the amount
received, or $180,000, to Neil Sullivan and Michael Cunniff as a
finder's fee. The Company has also agreed to pay Messrs. Sullivan
and Cunniff 3% of the amount it receives on the exercise of the
$4.50 Warrants. The holders of the $4.50 Warrants have demand
registration rights similar to those of the $2.50 and $3.50
Warrants and the Company is currently preparing a registration
statement for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission
with respect to the resale of the Common Stock to be issued on
exercise of the $4.50 Warrants.
Additional Warrants
The Company has also entered into an agreement with the holders of
the $3.50 and $4.50 Warrants (who are all Selling Shareholders)
that if the $3.50 Warrants were exercised by October 1, 1995, and
the $4.50 Warrants are exercised by November 1, 1995, or, if later,
30 days after the effectiveness of a registration statement with
respect to the resale of the shares of Common Stock underlying the
$4.50 Warrants, the Company will issue, pro rata in proportion to
the number of $3.50 and $4.50 Warrants exercised, additional
warrants to acquire up to 500,000 shares at $4.50 per share of
Common Stock (the "$4.50 B Warrants") and 1,000,000 shares at $5.75
per share of Common Stock (the "$5.75 Warrants"). The exercise
date for the $3.50 Warrants was extended by the Company to
October 13, 1995, and all of the $3.50 Warrants have been
exercised. The $4.50 B Warrants and $5.75 Warrants will be
exercisable for a period of two years subsequent to their issuance
and will contain demand registration rights substantially similar
to the rights associated with the $2.50, $3.50, and $4.50 Warrants.
Plan of Distribution
On a trade date of August 16, 1995, Laura Huberfeld and Naomi
Bodner, Selling Shareholders named in the Prospectus, each sold
17,500 shares of the Common Stock of the Company to Bear, Stearns,
& Co., Inc., which acted as principal in this transaction. Such
shares were resold by Bear, Stearns & Co., Inc., as part of its

PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
GENERAL
The Registrant is primarily engaged in the development,
manufacture, and marketing of precision measuring instrumentation
and accompanying computer hardware and software technology. The
Registrant sells its measurement instruments to private industry
and governmental agencies for both industrial and military
applications. The Registrant also owns its ANOMS Software which
is used in airport noise and operations monitoring systems.
Subsequent to the year ended June 30, 1995, the Registrant reached
an agreement with Harris Miller Miller & Hanson, Inc. ("HMMH"), to
license the Registrant's ANOMS Software and to transfer the
management and implementation of essentially all of the
Registrant's airport noise monitoring contracts to HMMH. (See
discussion below under "Recent Events.")
The Registrant is comprised of two active wholly-owned subsidiaries:
Larson Davis Laboratories ("LDL"), which conducts the design,
manufacturing, and sales operations of the Registrant, and
Larson Davis, Ltd. ("LTD"), the Registrant's distribution
subsidiary located in the United Kingdom. Unless the context
otherwise requires, when used herein, the term "Registrant" refers
to Larson Davis Incorporated and its operating subsidiaries.
RECENT EVENTS
Airport Noise Monitoring
Effective August 15, 1995, the Registrant entered into an agreement
with HMMH to exclusively license its ANOMS Software for use in the
airport noise and operations monitoring industry to HMMH and to
transfer the management and implementation of its existing airport
noise monitoring contracts and pending bid proposals to HMMH. HMMH
is a consulting firm established in 1981 by experienced acoustical
engineers that has focused its business on consulting in the noise
and vibration market in the transportation industry, including
interpreting airport noise regulations and establishing
specifications for the hardware and software airports need to
monitor sound levels and other environmental occurrences at
airports and in surrounding communities. HMMH established the
specifications for a number of airports at which the Registrant's
systems are being installed and provides consulting work to the
Federal Aviation Administration (the "FAA"). The Registrant
<PAGE>
believes that HMMH has a strong marketing advantage in the airport
industry because of its established reputation, experience, and
long association with airport administrators. Under the terms of
the transaction, the Registrant will receive a guaranteed annual
royalty, a percentage of the gross annual revenues of HMMH from
the airport noise monitoring business, and a commitment from HMMH
to use its best efforts to install the Registrant's instrumentation
at all new airport installations. The Registrant will be
prohibited from competing with HMMH and, consequently, has
accounted for the transaction as a discontinued operation. (See
"ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.")
The Registrant acquired the ANOMS Software from Technology
Integration Incorporated ("TII") during the year ended June 30, 1994.
Certain former key employees of TII that became employees of the
Registrant in connection with this earlier transaction have become
employees of HMMH.
Agreement in Principle
In September 1995, the Registrant entered into an Agreement in
Principle to acquire technology held by Sensar Corporation, a
privately-held Utah corporation ("Sensar"), in exchange for the
issuance of restricted Common Stock, the payment of cash to redeem
certain shares of Sensar, and the assumption or payment of the
liabilities of Sensar.
Sensar holds rights to patented proprietary technology with respect
to a time-of-flight mass spectrometer designed to detect smaller
quantities of impurities in gas vapors than is possible with
competing instruments with a much quicker analysis time. Sensar
has a great deal of expertise in mass spectrometry, which is used
for chemical analysis, chemical separation, isotope identification,
and impurity detection. Sensar has sold a limited number of its
newly-developed analyzers and does not have significant ongoing
revenues. Sensar's instrumentation is currently being used by
Micron and Atmel in connection with the fabrication of
semiconductors, and it is anticipated that future sales of this
product will also be in the semiconductor industry. Sensar also
has conducted research and development with respect to
instrumentation with applications outside the semiconductor
industry, although these technologies have not yet been reduced
to marketable products.
<PAGE>
The technology was developed by Dr. Milton Lee at Brigham Young
University ("BYU"). BYU holds the patent on the mass spectrometry
technology exclusively licensed to Sensar as well as several
related technologies. The transaction with Sensar is conditioned
on the Registrant obtaining license rights to certain related
technologies from BYU.
The closing of the transaction is subject to the completion of a
due diligence review of Sensar, the negotiation and execution of
definitive agreements, and the negotiation of licensing agreements
from BYU with respect to related technology. There can be no
assurance at this time that the transaction contemplated by the
Agreement in Principle will be consummated.
MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENTATION BUSINESS
The hardware products of the Registrant are focused on precision
measuring instruments for use in the acoustics and vibration
industry. Subdivisions of this market in which the Registrant's
instrumentation is currently being utilized are:
Environmental Monitoring provides data used to monitor,
control, or avoid noise (unwanted and/or irritable sound which
has a detrimental effect on living organisms). It includes such
applications as community noise ordinance compliance surveys,
airport noise monitoring, vehicle passby surveys, industrial
complex perimeter monitoring, environmental impact studies, OSHA
(noise in the work place) mandated surveys, military aircraft
sonic boom monitoring, and others.
Product Design and Improvement encompasses the use by
manufacturers to optimize utilization and minimize acoustic
output. For example, the auto and aircraft industries determine
noise dampening properties of materials used in insulation; a
yacht manufacturer studied acoustic spectrums as an aid in
selecting efficient hull designs; and other manufacturers of items
such as lawn mowers, computer printers, office equipment, and
kitchen appliances employ instruments to alter encasement designs
to minimize sound emission.
Structural Dynamics is the study of the motion of materials
to determine characteristics such as fatigue, resonance, material
density, and bonding strengths. A consultant used the Registrant's
instrumentation to determine the resonant frequency of the
vibrations in the Statue of Liberty's arm holding the torch.
Braces were designed and installed which resulted in doubling the
torch bulb life.
<PAGE>
Medical Applications include hardware and software used in
automatic calibration systems for medical equipment. The analysis
and treatment of both hearing and speech problems can be improved
utilizing the Registrant's instrumentation.
Predictive Maintenance is an emerging industry in which
characteristics of rotating or moving machinery are analyzed to
predict failure points. Based on information obtained, planned
service can be performed. Currently, the Registrant's
instrumentation is being used by helicopter manufacturers, power
plant turbine operators, paper producers, and others.
Professional Sound includes both manufacturers and consultants.
The Registrant provides equipment used to certify sound products'
(such as amplifiers, mixers, equalizers, speakers, and microphones)
compliance with published specifications. Field engineers rely on
portable instrumentation to evaluate the acoustic characteristics
of a room or building.
Defense and Government applications range from ship/vehicle
identification based on spectrum analysis to artillery blast noise
studies.
ENVIRONMENTAL NOISE MONITORING BUSINESS
The Registrant utilizes its hardware products and its internally
developed proprietary software ENOMS in the design, bid,
installation, and maintenance of integrated environmental noise
monitoring systems. These systems have been used by manufacturing
plants as parameter monitors, governmental test labs for blast
noise monitoring and analysis, and other environmental and
community noise applications. It is also anticipated that the
ENOMS software will be applied to the data retrieval and
management requirements of the time-of-flight mass spectrometry
technology in the event the transactions with Sensar is completed.
The Registrant has recently granted an exclusive license to its
ANOMS Software to HMMH for use in the airport noise monitoring
systems industry, although the Registrant will continue to supply
hardware to this industry. (See discussion under "Recent Events.")
<PAGE>
MANUFACTURING AND ASSEMBLY
The Registrant is involved in the manufacture of both its hardware
and software products. It utilizes the service of certain
subcontractors to manufacture component parts for its products to
minimize the amount of its capital investment and increase its
flexibility in dealing with changes in the manufacturing processes.
Approximately 30% of manufacturing is performed by subcontractors.
However, all final assembly is done by the Registrant's employees
as part of its quality control program. Manufacturing activities
occupy approximately 12,000 square feet of the Registrant's
facilities.
PRODUCT COMPONENTS
The Registrant utilizes a large number of individual electronic
components in connection with the manufacture of its precision
instrumentation. The Registrant has developed and sells its own
line of high quality transducers so that it is no longer dependent
on suppliers for these component parts. Most of the other
electronic components utilized by the Registrant are available
from a number of manufacturers and the Registrant's decisions with
respect to suppliers are based on availability of the necessary
component, the reliability of the supplier in meeting its
commitments, and pricing.
The Registrant purchases certain supplies from third-parties for
installation in environmental noise monitoring systems. Generally,
these supplies consist of "brand name" computers, printers, and
other peripherals, and are readily available from a variety of
manufacturers or suppliers.
MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION
Instrumentation
The Registrant markets and distributes its hardware products
primarily through independent manufacturer's representatives.
The efforts of these contracted representatives are supported by
an in-house staff of marketing and technical personnel.
<PAGE>
The Registrant invests in both image building and direct product
advertising. This exposure takes many forms, including
participation on industry standards boards, exhibitions at trade
shows, company sponsored training classes, direct technical
demonstrations, and industry publication ads. The Registrant
has budgeted resources to support its belief that effective and
continued exposure is required to establish greater name
recognition and overall positive market perception.
The total market size of the acoustics and vibration industry
decreased in the past few years, although it has begun to increase
again since June 30, 1994. Management believes this was due in
part to general global economic conditions. The timing of the
purchase of acoustical noise monitoring equipment is often
discretionary and both private industry and governments made
alternative applications of their limited funds. Since June 30,
1994, the Registrant has seen signs of a change in these
conditions. Revenues from continuing operations are up over last
year, product backlog has increased, and inquiries about
instrumentation have strengthened significantly. As resources
allow, the Registrant plans to increase its marketing efforts as
a stimulus to sales efforts. The Registrant has no current plans
to change its basic approach to distribution.
Environmental Monitoring
Environmental monitoring contracts are normally awarded after a
competitive bid process. Such bids are typically awarded based
on the price, specifications of the proposed system, reputation
of the contractor, and recommendations from current users.
CURRENT ORDERS
As of October 6, 1995, the Registrant had an order backlog believed
to be firm of approximately $1,200,000 which is not reflected in
the financial statement included elsewhere herein. The Registrant
anticipates filling this backlog within 60 days. This compares to
a backlog in October of 1994 of $850,000, which took approximately
45 days to fill. This increase is primarily due to a growth in
unit orders for the Registrant's instrumentation.
<PAGE>
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
General
The Registrant is engaged in a highly technical industry where
constant research and development is required to maintain
competitive products in its sophisticated market. The Registrant
has since its inception committed a significant portion of
operating capital to perform needed development. As compared to
net sales from continuing operations the expenditure for research
and development for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1995 and 1994,
has been 11% and 16%, respectively. During the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1995, research and development spending was $708,679. It
is anticipated that in future years this commitment level to
research and development will continue to be a material portion
of the Registrant's spending.
CrossCheck Technology
In March 1994, the Registrant acquired the exclusive license to a
technology known as "CrossCheck," a proprietary hardware and
process used to determine, in real time, the in situ
characteristics of polymer substances. The technology was
developed at Brigham Young University, and the Registrant gained
its rights through an exclusive licensing agreement with the
University's Technology Transfer Office. Brigham Young University
has recently been granted a United States patent with respect to
this technology.
Originally developed and tested as a means to quantify the cure
and shelf life characteristics of resins used in pre-impregnated
composites (graphite, fiberglass, and boron fibers), CrossCheck
has broad potential application. Polymers are a large category of
chemicals that form "giant" molecules from individual molecules of
the same substance, and include such materials as oils, resins,
plastics, concretes, paints, and adhesives. Under traditional
methods for testing the characteristics of such materials, a sample
portion is used in destructive testing. The CrossCheck technology
monitors the cross-linking chemical qualities of polymers. A real
time, in situ method to determine material quality will potentially
save a great deal of time and money in those industries in which the
chemical composition of polymers is important. In testing,
CrossCheck has been shown to detect changes in polymers with
sensitivity greatly in excess of that of existing testing equipment
costing in excess of $50,000. It is expected the CrossCheck
technology will be able to provide such information economically.
<PAGE>
The Registrant has investigated the potential application of
CrossCheck in a number of industries. Set forth below is a short
summary of certain of these applications.
Composites Industry. Many "space age" composite materials are
cured polymers that provide superior weight to strength ratios. It
is anticipated that CrossCheck will be able to monitor the chemical
reactivity of the polymers from the instant of application through
full cure, providing assurances that the desired characteristics
are achieved.
Lubrication Industry. The Registrant anticipates that
CrossCheck can be used to monitor the lubrication properties of
engine, transmission, and hydraulic oils. Existing technology is
impractical for reasons of cost, size, inability to withstand high
temperatures, or other factors. It is anticipated that the
technology would first be focused on applications in which chemical
changes in the oil can lead to critical failures, but will be
followed by efforts in the automobile industry.
Environmental Monitoring. The CrossCheck technology can
potentially be used to test ground water, lakes, streams, or
storage facilities for potential contaminants.
Manufacturing Industry. Delivering consistent, high-quality
chemical products can be a challenging task. The CrossCheck
technology may allow chemists and engineers involved in the
manufacture of paints, adhesives, foods, medicines, fuels, oils,
and similar products to monitor the chemical properties of the
product during the mixing cycles.
Chemical Inventory Control. The CrossCheck technology could
be used to monitor the quality of stored chemicals to assure
quality at the time of usage.
Electrical Utilities. The CrossCheck technology could be used
to monitor the oil in transformers to minimize or prevent the
unpredicted failure of such transformers due to changes in the
oil composition.
Concrete Industry. CrossCheck technology could be used to
monitor the "curing" of concrete to assure quality, strength, and
hardness. The only current method of obtaining this information is
destructive testing.
<PAGE>
The foregoing applications are currently being explored by the
Registrant. The Registrant anticipates that it will be required
to enter into agreements with established industry partners and to
obtain substantial research and development funding before it will
be able to reduce the CrossCheck technology to marketable products
and exploit one or more of the potential market applications.
Mass Spectrometer Technology
If the acquisition of Sensar technology and the related technology
from BYU is completed, the Registrant will acquire a nest of
related technologies that will require significant research and
development expenditures.
The Registrant will enter into employment agreements with Dr.
Milton Lee and Dr. Edgar Lee in connection with the closing. In
addition, the Registrant will make employment offers to two
additional employees of Sensar.
Dr. Milton L. Lee is a founder and chairman of the board of Sensar.
He is the H. Tracy Hall Professor of Chemistry at Brigham Young
University, where he has taught since 1976. Dr. Lee founded and
is the editor of the Journal of MicroColumn Separations and serves
on the editorial advisory boards of Chromatographia, Journal of
Supercritical Fluids, and Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds. Dr. Lee
is the co-author of two books and over 330 scientific publications.
Dr. Lee has received numerous awards for his contributions in
chemical analysis and is listed as the inventor on nine patents.
Dr. Lee is a member of the American Chemical Society, Sigma Xi, and
the Scientific Organizing Committee of the International Symposia
on Capillary Chromatography. He received his B.A. in Chemistry
from the University of Utah in 1971, and his Ph.D. in Analytical
Chemistry from Indiana University in 1975.
Dr. Edgar D. Lee is a founder and vice-president of research of
Sensar and serves as an adjunct researcher at Brigham Young
University. Dr. Lee has extensive experience in a number of areas
of mass spectrometry and has co-authored 21 published articles and
45 technical papers in this field. Dr. Lee is also the co-holder
of three patents in his areas of expertise. Prior to founding
Sensar in 1990, Dr. Lee was employed at Midwest Research Institute
from December 1988 through August 1990, first as a mass
spectrometrist and later as a senior mass spectrometrist. While
at Midwest Research Institute, Dr. Lee was responsible for
research, development, and implementation of state-of-the-art
mass spectrometric techniques at its Center for Advanced

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS
The technology owned by the Registrant is proprietary in nature.
In connection with the design and construction of its precision
measurement instrumentation and its proprietary software, the
Registrant primarily relies on confidentiality and nondisclosure
agreements with its employees, appropriate security measures,
copyrights, and the encoding of its software in order to protect
the proprietary nature of its technology rather than patents which
are difficult to obtain in the computer software area, require
public disclosure, and can often be successfully avoided by
sophisticated computer programmers. The CrossCheck technology
held by the Registrant is the subject of a recent United States
patent and several continuations-in-part and international patent
applications. The Registrant has also registered "NOISEBADGE" to
use as a trademark in the marketing of noise level meters with the
United States Office of Patents and Trademarks.
COMPETITION
Instrumentation
The hardware products are positioned in a niche market which caters
to a technically sophisticated user base. For a number of years
this market was dominated by a single competitor, Bruel & Kjaer
("B&K"). B&K has traditionally been the largest supplier of
acoustics and vibration instrumentation in the world. B&K was
purchased by a German company which had no previous ties to the
acoustics and vibration industry in 1992, and currently has a much
reduced presence in the market.
In addition to B&K, there are several smaller companies in direct
competition with the Registrant. None of these other competitors
has available the full line of products offered by the Registrant.
There are also a small number of large companies which produce, in
most cases, a single product which can be adapted to certain
applications in the acoustics industry.
<PAGE>
While many of the companies which compete with the Registrant have
greater financial and managerial resources, management believes
the Registrant can compete effectively based on its ability to:
(1) adapt rapidly to technology changes, (2) technically market
to specialized users, and (3) offer a complete line of solutions
to users' needs.
Environmental Monitoring
The environmental noise monitoring market has several smaller
consulting or value-added companies which compete indirectly with
the Registrant's ENOMS systems. There are no completed noise
monitoring systems which compare with all the features and
capabilities of the software provided by the Registrant.
B&K manufactures instrumentation used in noise monitoring systems.
Many of the competitors to the Registrant use B&K's equipment in
systems. For a time, B&K entertained the idea of permanently
linking their hardware to one of the smaller competitor's software.
Eventually, B&K announced they would supply hardware only, and not
get directly involved with software elements.
MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND FOREIGN SALES
There were no customers which represented more than 10% of the
total revenues for the Registrant during the years ended June 30,
1995, or 1994. In fiscal years ended June 30, 1995 and 1994,
government sales were not significant with sales volumes less than
5% of continuing operations for each of the years.
Export sales of the Registrant for the years ended June 30, 1995
and 1994, are 54% and 45% of revenues from continuing activities,
respectively. The Registrant exported its products into a number
of geographical markets that are more specifically identified in
the notes to the financial statements of the Registrant. (See
"FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.")
PERSONNEL
The Registrant currently has 81 employees, 20 of which are involved
in professional or technical development of products, 36 in
manufacturing, 13 in marketing and sales, and 12 in administrative
and clerical. None of the employees of the Registrant are
represented by a union or subject to a collective bargaining
agreement, and the Registrant considers its relations with its
employees to be favorable.
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
The Registrant owns its own administrative and manufacturing
facilities in Provo, Utah, subject to a security lien granted to
a commercial financial institution to secure a purchase money loan.
The facilities include approximately 12,000 square feet of
administrative, engineering, and research and development space
and approximately 12,000 square feet of manufacturing, storage,
and shipping space. Management considers the existing
manufacturing facilities sufficient to accommodate the
anticipated growth of the Registrant over the next three to
five years. (See "FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.")
In connection with the operation of its Airports Business, the
Registrant opened an office in Boston, Massachusetts. The lease
covers approximately 4,200 square feet of space with a monthly
rental payment of approximately $4,100. This space is currently
sublet on a month-to-month basis for the amount of the monthly
rental payment plus operating expenses.
In addition, approximately 1,200 square feet of space is being
rented on a month-to-month basis in England for the offices of LTD.
The monthly rental is approximately $425.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Registrant is not a party to any material pending legal
proceedings and, to the best of its knowledge, no such proceedings
by or against the Registrant have been threatened. To the knowledge
of management, there are no material proceedings pending or
threatened against any director or executive officer of the
Registrant, whose position in any such proceeding would be adverse
to that of the Registrant.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
During the Registrant's fiscal quarter ended June 30, 1995, the
Registrant did not hold an annual meeting and no matters were
submitted to a vote of the security holders of the Registrant,
through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.
<PAGE>
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND
RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The common stock of the Registrant is listed on the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., Automated Quotation
system ("NASDAQ"), under the symbol "LDII."
The following table sets forth the approximate range of high and
low bids for the common stock of the Registrant during the periods
indicated. The quotations presented reflect interdealer prices,
without retail markup, markdown, or commissions, and may not
necessarily represent actual transactions in the common stock.
Quarter Ended High Bid Low Bid
September 30, 1993 $4.75 $2.375
December 31, 1993 $4.50 $3.625
March 31, 1994 $7.50 $3.875
June 30, 1994 $5.875 $3.375
September 30, 1994 $4.875 $2.625
December 31, 1994 $3.38 $2.00
March 31, 1995 $3.00 $2.00
June 30, 1995 $4.1666 $2.25
On October 6, 1995, the closing quotation for the common stock on
NASDAQ was $6.0625. As reflected by the high and low bids on the
foregoing table, the trading volume of the common stock of the
Registrant is limited, creating significant changes in the trading
price of the common stock as a result of relatively minor changes
in the supply and demand. Consequently, potential investors should
be aware that the price of the common stock in the trading market
can change dramatically over short periods as a result of factors
unrelated to the earnings and business activities of the Registrant.
As of October 6, 1995, there were 7,586,726 shares of common stock
issued and outstanding, held by approximately 1,300 beneficial
holders.
<PAGE>
The Registrant has not paid dividends with respect to its common
stock. The Registrant has 1,000,000 shares of its 1995 preferred
stock issued and outstanding which prohibit the payment of dividends
on the common stock if the annual dividend of $0.225 per share of
preferred stock is in arrears. Other than the foregoing, there
are no restrictions on the declaration or payment of dividends
set forth in the articles of incorporation of the Registrant or
any other agreement with its shareholders. Management anticipates
retaining any potential earnings for working capital and investment
in growth and expansion of the business of the Registrant and does
not anticipate paying dividends on the common stock in the
foreseeable future.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In conformity to Management's plan to focus its available monetary
and human resources, the Registrant has restructured its business.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993, the Registrant made a
decision to discontinue the development of wholesale and retail
software products not related to its instrumentation business,
and pursued a sale of the technology and related assets. During
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, the Registrant elected to
write-down the carrying value of the related net assets to zero
and is no longer actively seeking to sell the related assets.
During the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995,
the Registrant made a decision to transfer its technology,
marketing rights, and interests in airport noise monitoring
installation contracts (the "Airports Business") as a method to
maximize financial return from assets purchased from TII and
later enhanced by development. (See "ITEM 1. BUSINESS: Recent
Developments.")
Subsequent to June 30, 1995, the Registrant entered into an
agreement to transfer the Airports Business to HMMH. (See Notes to
Financial Statements, Note 17 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS.)
Because of the exclusive marketing rights transferred to HMMH,
"Airports Business" was determined to include contracts assigned
to HMMH and essentially completed contracts retained by the
Registrant. Consequently, the Registrant in the fourth quarter of
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, reassessed revenues and
expenses associated with the Airports Business, which contributed
to a greater loss from operations of the discontinued business
segment than earlier anticipated. The Registrant determined in
the fourth quarter that estimated costs to complete existing airport
contracts had increased each interim period. The assets and
results of operations from the Airports Business has been reflected
on the financial statements as a discontinued business segment.
Because a portion of the payment is based on a royalty from gross
sales by HMMH, the Registrant has elected to use the "Cost Recovery"
method to recognize revenues and costs. This means that a dollar
for dollar matching of monies received and costs expensed will be
performed until all costs are expensed, and only after this will
the Registrant realize any gain from the HMMH agreement. As part
of the HMMH agreement, HMMH must use its best efforts to install
the Registrant's instrumentation with all new airport noise
monitoring contracts it obtains. The Registrant will realize its
normal, export level, gross profit on these sales, due to the 25%
discount from list price offered to HMMH.
<PAGE>
Net sales from continuing operations represents sales from the
Registrant's instrumentation business. The Registrant in past
years has pursued a strategy of diversification as a way to enhance
sales and increase profits. After a period of disappointing
results, the Registrant has refocused efforts to develop its
instrumentation business.
Due to the required netting of revenues, costs, and expenses
associated with discontinued operations, the following tables
identify the nature of discontinued operations:

</TABLE>
SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL CHANGES - STATEMENTS OF INCOME
Total Revenue
Net sales from continuing operations for the fiscal years ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994, is $6,515,830 and $5,137,638, respectively.
The Registrant experienced a decline in sales of its sound and
vibration instrumentation in 1994. This was related in part to a
general global recession. The Registrant was able to maintain its
established market share in a then shrinking market.
In the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, instrumentation sales
increased by 27% from $5,137,638 in 1994 as compared to $6,515,830
in 1995. Management expects the strengthening of its
instrumentation market to continue.
Foreign sales have been an important part of the Registrant's
business plan for many years. For the fiscal years ended June 30,
1995 and 1994, foreign sales as a portion of continuing operations
account for 54% and 45%, respectively. The increase in 1995 is
partially due to the Registrant's operations in the United Kingdom
through its subsidiary, LTD.
<PAGE>
In the fiscal years ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, government sales
were not significant and represented less than 5% of sales from
continuing operation in each year.
Cost of Sales and Operating Expenses
The Registrant's cost of sales and operating expenses as a
percentage of sales from continuing operations for the years ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994, are 40% and 42%, respectively. The
Registrant believes its efforts to better track costs and control
inventories has contributed to the decrease in cost of sales and
operating expenses between the fiscal years ended June 30, 1995,
and 1994.
Research and Development
Since its inception, the Registrant has dedicated significant
operating funds to research and development. For the years ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994, this commitment represents 11% and 16%,
respectively, of the Registrant's net sales from continuing
operations. The Registrant introduced a number of new products
over the past 12 months which caused the increased spending
reflected in 1994 (the time period when costs were expensed before
sales began), and will continue to offer new instruments to enhance
its product line.
The Registrant is involved in a high-tech industry which demands
constant improvements and development of its instrumentation to
remain technically viable. It is anticipated this aggressive
approach to research and development will continue and the
Registrant will dedicate significant levels of available resources
to this activity.
SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL CHANGES - BALANCE SHEETS
Trade Accounts Receivable
The Registrant's accounts receivable increased by 32% from June 30,
1994 to 1995, and two factors have contributed to this increase.
First, sales from continuing operations grew 27% for the same
period. Secondly, foreign sales are a larger portion of net sales
from continuing operations (traditionally, foreign billings take
longer to collect). On June 30, 1995, the balance of $2,130,835
represents a receivable aging of 123 days.
<PAGE>
Inventories
Inventories have remained virtually identical to 1995 from 1994 at
$2,152,768 and $2,155,232, respectively. The Registrant has been
able to increase net sales from continuing operations by 27% and
maintain the inventory level unchanged.
Cost and Estimated Earnings in Excess of Related Billings
The Registrant recognizes income on long-term contracts on a
percentage-of-completion method while billings to customers are
made on milestones specified in agreements. With the introduction
of the discontinued operations classification of the balance sheet,
a reclassification of assets related to the Airports Business
occurred. Portions of the costs and estimated earnings in excess
of related billings were reclassed to net assets held for sales.
The $200,318 balance of this account represents actual invoices
which the Registrant will bill in the normal course of its business.
The remainder of this category was transferred to HMMH. (See
Report on Form 8-K dated June 30, 1995.)
Net Assets Held For Sale
Notes to Financial Statements - Note 17 - "Discontinued Operations"
details the effect of the disposal of the Airports Business on the
balance sheet as of June 30, 1995. Net assets held for sale are
reflected at $3,135,776 and will be expensed against revenues
received from HMMH.
Other Assets - Product technology, licenses rights and software
development costs
Notes to Financial Statements - Note 6 - "Product Technology,
License Rights and Software Development Costs" details the effect
of the disposal of the Airports Business on the balance sheet as
of June 30, 1995. The balance at year end is $1,975,699.
Current Liabilities
Current liabilities decreased $991,165 from June 30, 1994, to
June 30, 1995. This decrease is primarily due to reductions in
short-term notes payable of $562,862 and in accounts payable of
$402,977. Other current liability accounts varied as a result of
normal operations. The Registrant utilized proceeds from the
issuance of common stock to reduce liabilities and restructure
debts.
<PAGE>
CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY
At June 30, 1995, the Registrant had total current assets of
$4,702,603 and total current liabilities of $3,954,816, resulting
in a working capital ratio of 1.2:1. Included in total current
liabilities is approximately $1,920,000 representing the
Registrant's revolving line of credit. The limit on this line of
credit is currently $2,400,000 and is adjusted from time to time
based on ratios of inventories and accounts receivable levels.
The line of credit is also secured by common stock owned by two of
the directors of the Registrant along with personal guarantees from
these same directors. The line of credit is reviewed annually and
the Registrant anticipates it will continue to remain available.
In an agreement effective August 15, 1995, the Registrant
transferred the rights to certain assets to HMMH in return for
guaranteed and variable payments. The Registrant was paid a
one-time fee of $125,000, will receive $150,000 in guaranteed
annual royalties of the lessor of a ten-year period or the term
of the agreement, and will be a varying royalty of 2.5% to 4% on
the gross revenues of HMMH from the sale, installation, upgrade,
and maintenance of airport noise and operations monitoring
systems. HMMH will use its best efforts to include the
Registrant's hardware in its future proposals for airport noise
monitoring systems and the Registrant will provide such equipment
at a 25% discount from its regular pricing structure. HMMH has
the right to purchase all of the Registrant's rights to the
ANOMS software at a predetermined price of $3,000,000,
$2,200,000, $1,700,000, and $875,000, respectively, on the three,
five, seven, and ten year anniversaries of the agreement. HMMH
has the right to terminate the agreement after an initial three-
year period and, at the end of the ten year term, can elect to
extend the agreement for an additional five years during which it
would be obligated to pay a royalty of 3% on its gross revenues
from the airport systems.
The Registrant has eliminated out-of-pocket expenses in connection
with its Airports Business which will benefit overall cash flow.
The funds anticipated from HMMH will be applied to liabilities
associated with the acquisition of assets from TII. The
Registrant's net cash condition should be significantly improved by
this arrangement.
<PAGE>
Subsequent to the fiscal year end of June 30, 1995, the Registrant
has received proceeds from the sale of common stock of
approximately $1,100,000 net. The Registrant has relied on
capital infusion for the past two years to sustain its losses in
discontinued operations and anticipates further sales of common
stock during the upcoming year.
Through its acquisition of Sensar, if completed, the Registrant
would benefit from various state and federal government grant and
development contract funds which have been awarded to Sensar for
development of its technologies. Sensar has made application for
and received in the past funds made available through governmental
agencies such as EPA, the State of Utah, and SBIR research grants.
The Registrant intends to continue the practice of seeking this
type of development funding.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Board of Directors
LARSON-DAVIS INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Provo, Utah
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Larson-
Davis Incorporated and Subsidiaries at June 30, 1995, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash
flows for the years ended June 30, 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 did not audit the financial
statements of Larson-Davis, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary, which
statements constitute approximately 4% of total assets and 14% of
total revenues of the related consolidated totals. Those
statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been
furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the
amounts included for Larson-Davis, Ltd., is based solely on the
report of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit 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, based on our audits and the report of other
auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position of Larson-Davis Incorporated and Subsidiaries as of June 30,
1995 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the
years ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming
the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note
18 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered
a significant loss from operations and is currently discontinuing
certain of its operations. Management's plans in regard to these
matters is also contained in Note 18.

Earnings Per Share - The computation of earnings per share of
common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares
of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during
the period. The weighted average number of shares outstanding
for primary earnings (loss) per share are 6,227,707 and 5,824,345
for the years ending 1995 and 1994, respectively. Fully diluted
earnings per share are not presented as their effect is anti-
dilutive.
Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue on product
sales and services at the time of product delivery or rendering
services. However, with respect to long-term contracts, the
Company's earning process extends over a much longer time period.
The Company has adopted a percentage-of-completion method for
accruing revenues and expenses related to long term contracts.
Revenues are accrued and a current, non-trade receivable is
created based on progress toward completion of the particular
contract. Progress is determined by comparing actual time
incurred and materials used with expected estimates of total
contract costs. In short, revenues are accrued as they are
earned by the Company. Billings to the customer are made
according to payment terms of the contract. When a billing is
created, the amount of the billing is transferred into the
regular trade receivable account to await receipt of payment
[See Note 3]. Losses on long-term contracts are recognized when
they become apparent.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Continued]
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the statement of cash
flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments
purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
Product Technology and License Rights - The Company capitalizes
costs incurred to acquire product technology and license rights.
These costs are being amortized over estimated useful lives
ranging from 10 to 17 years by the straight line method.
Software Development Costs - The Company conducts multiple
software development efforts simultaneously. Each individual
program is reviewed and evaluated on a product-by-product basis.
Pursuant to FASB No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, the Company
capitalizes costs incurred to develop software after technological
feasibility has been established. Where required by FASB
Statement No. 86, amortization of these development costs is
computed either based on the number of contracts initiated during
the current year relative to the anticipated total number of
contracts for that period, or the straight line method over the
expected useful life of 10 years, whichever is greater.
Income Taxes - Effective for the year ended June 30, 1994, the
Company adopted FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income
Taxes. There was a cumulative benefit from the change in
accounting principle of $486,992 [See Note 7]. The Company
previously calculated its tax provision according to FASB
Statement No. 96.
Foreign Currency Translation / Re-measurement - For foreign
subsidiaries whose functional currency is the local foreign
currency, balance sheet accounts are translated at exchange rates
in effect at the end of the year and income statement accounts
are translated at average exchange rates for the year.
Translation gains and losses are included as a separate
component of stockholders' equity. Exchange gains (losses) are
included as a component of general and administrative expense.

NOTE 3 - CONTRACTS IN PROGRESS
The Company has accrued and recognized revenues on long-term
contracts based on a percentage-of completion method
[See Note 1], which attempts to recognize the income as it is
being earned. The unbilled contract receivable represents
amounts of contract revenues accrued and recognized that have
not yet been billed to the customer. Billings on the contracts
are being made according to payment term stipulations which do
not necessarily coincide with the "earning" process. At June
30, 1995, the Massport contract accounted for $98,750 of cost
and estimated earning in excess of related billings.

NOTE 6 - PRODUCT TECHNOLOGY, LICENSE RIGHTS AND SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
COSTS
The intangible asset balances at June 30, 1995 of $1,975,699
consist of product technology, license rights, patents and
software development costs. These intangible assets are being
amortized using the straight line method over useful lives
ranging from 5 to 17 years. Total amortization expense on
intangible assets was $406,452 and $464,951, for the years
ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.
The long term value of these assets is connected to the
application of these technologies and software costs to viable
products which can be successfully marketed by the Company.
Management believes current and projected sales levels of its
current and planned products will support the carrying costs of
the related software and technologies.

COSTS [Continued]
Some of the technology was purchased from the founders of the
Company, but the largest portion of these rights and technologies
were purchased from unrelated third party entities and by
entering into royalty contracts. The Company paid royalty
expenses included in the statement of income for the years
ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 of $73,937 and $69,536,
respectively.
Subsequent to the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company

Monitoring Systems Industry. The Company has licensed its rights
to proprietary Airport Noise and Operations Monitoring Software
(ANOMS) and has reclassified the net capitalized software costs
of $2,533,879 to "Net Assets of Discontinued Operations."
NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 109 Accounting for Income Taxes [FASB 109] during Fiscal 1994.
FASB 109 requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset
or liability equal to the expected future tax benefit or expense
of temporary reporting differences between book and tax accounting
and any available operating loss or tax credit carryforwards.
The financial statements for years prior to 1994 have not been
restated and there was a cumulative benefit from the change in
accounting principle of $486,992. At June 30, 1995, the total
of all deferred tax assets are $953,677 and the total of the
deferred tax liabilities are $494,570. The amount of and ultimate
realization of the benefits from the deferred tax assets for
income tax purposes is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in
effect, the Company's future earnings, and other future events,
the effects of which cannot be determined. Because of the
uncertainty surrounding the realization of the deferred tax
assets, the Company has established a valuation allowance of
$459,107 as of June 30, 1995, which has been offset against the
deferred tax assets. The net change in the valuation allowance
during the years ended June 30, 1995, was $177,799.
The Company has available at June 30, 1995, unused operating
loss carryforwards of approximately $1,500,000, which may be
applied against future taxable income and which expire in
various years through 2010.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 17 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The accompanying financial statements as of June 30, 1995 and
1994 have been reclassified to reflect management's decision
to discontinue the Company's operations in the Airports Noise
and Operation Monitoring Industry [See Note 20]. The net assets
related to the Airport Industry are included on the Company's June
30, 1995 balance sheet as "net assets of discontinued operations".
The Company's operations in the Airport Industry for the years
ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 are included as Discontinued
Operations in the financial statements of the Company. As of
June 30, 1995, management estimates the proceeds from the
subsequent license/sales of the "Net assets of discontinued
operations" will equal or exceed the carrying value of these
assets. Therefore, no loss on disposal has been recognized.
During the year ended June 30, 1994, with the return of the
minority interest shares in Larson-Davis Info, Inc. ("Info"),
the Board of Directors decided, pursuant to a plan effective
June 30, 1993, to discontinue the operations and pursue the sale
or licensing of the software technologies then owned by Info and
Advantage Software, Inc.. In as much as the Company was unable
to locate a buyer for the technologies, management elected to
reduce the carrying value of the related assets to zero as of
June 30, 1994, resulting in a loss of $2,256,987. As a result,
the balance sheets and statements of operations presented in
these financial statements reflect a separation of the net
assets of these subsidiaries as of June 30, 1994 and operating
results for the fiscal year then ended.
Assets to be disposed of consisted of the following at June 30,
1995:

that reflects what the presentation would have been without the

Net sales related to these discontinued technologies for 1995
and 1994 were $2,374,697 and $1,272,517, respectively. These
amounts are not included in net sales in the accompanying
income statements.
</TABLE>
NOTE 18 - CONTINUING OPERATIONS
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles,
which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going
concern. However, the Company had net losses of $(311,617) and
$(1,868,151) for the years ended June 30, 1995 and 1994. The
overall net loss for fiscal 1995 is a result of operating
revenues and expenses related to discontinued operations.
Further the company has significant intangible assets
(including those held for resale from its discontinued
operations) the realization of which is not assured.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments
relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded
assets that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot
continue in its present form.

LARSON-DAVIS INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 18 - CONTINUING OPERATIONS [Continued]
As highlighted in the statements of operations, the discontinued
operations produced losses of $(770,128) and $(1,913,907) for
years 1995 and 1994, respectively. The effect of the
discontinued operation and subsequent transfer of rights and
assets eliminates substantial amortization expense (a non-cash
expense). This in addition to management's plan and subsequent
actions to reduce labor expenditures should favorably affect
future reporting years. The Company has also subsequently
received proceeds from the sale of common stock which greatly
improves its ability to meet current and future obligations [See
Note 20].
The Company, as of June 30, 1995, had a current ratio of 1.2:1
indicating sufficient current assets to operate; The Company had
significant order backlog for the Company's instrumentation
subsequent to the financial statement date (approximately
$916,000). Management believes the discontinued operations will
not hinder their ability to generate working capital for their
on-going operations. In view of these factors, Management
believes the Company's operating and financial requirements
provide the opportunity for the Company to maintain current
operations.
NOTE 19 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
During the quarter ended March 31, 1994, the Company purchased all
of the outstanding common shares of Industrial & Marine Acoustics,
Ltd. [IMA], a corporation chartered in England, for a cash
payment of 6,000 British pounds (approximately $9,300). IMA was
formerly an independent sales representative of the Company for
Great Britain. As of the date of acquisition, IMA had negative
net assets of approximately $(133,000), giving rise to the
"goodwill" recorded on the company's balance sheet at that time.
This "goodwill" is being amortized over 10 years. The balance
sheet as of March 31, 1994 for this subsidiary has been
consolidated with the rest of the Company, and operations for
the months subsequent to March 1994 have been reflected in the
consolidated statements of operations. Subsequently, management
renamed the British subsidiary Larson-Davis, Ltd. and plans to
develop an expanded service and repair center to serve the
European Community.

NOTE 19 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS [Continued]
On June 30, 1994, the Company completed the acquisition of
substantially all of the intangible assets of Technology
Integration Incorporated, a privately-held Massachusetts
Corporation ["TII"] as a purchase. The Company acquired TII's
rights and obligations to approximately 25 contracts for the
installation, maintenance, and support of airport noise
monitoring systems. In addition, the Company acquired all
rights to the ANOMS Software developed by TII for use in airport
noise monitoring systems, a principal competitor of the
Company's own proprietary software. The Company also hired 10
former employees of TII who were an integral part of TII's
airport noise monitoring business. The Company intended to
complete existing contracts with ANOMS and then combine ANOMS
and its own proprietary software to produce an enhanced product.
However, subsequent to June 30, 1995, the Company discontinued
their selling, installation and maintenance of airport noise and
operations monitoring systems [See Note 20].
Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement with TII, as amended,
the cost of the acquired assets were $2,508,541. The Company paid
$100,000 to reduce TII's obligation to its principal bank,
delivered $267,380 in cash to TII at closing, and assumed the
obligation of TII with respect to a promissory note (the "Note")
in the principal amount of $950,000. Principal payments and the
issuance of preferred stock reduced this liability to $300,000 as
of June 30, 1995. The Note bears interest at 9% per annum,
requires monthly principal and interest payments of $15,845 and
is due and payable on or before March, 1997. The note was
acquired by the majority shareholder of TII from TII's principal
bank and represents the remainder of the obligation of TII to
such bank. The company paid this shareholder $20,000 to cover
his expenses in connection with the acquisition of the Note and
granted the shareholder a warrant to purchase, at a purchase
price of $0.001 per share, shares of common stock of the Company
having a fair market value equal to 1% of the unpaid principal
balance of the Note for each month the Note remained outstanding
subsequent to September 30, 1994 (warrants to acquire a total of
16,483 shares were issued and remain outstanding at June 30,
1995). In addition, the Company assumed $471,675 of TII's
accounts payable, $28,771 of other payables, $22,424 of accrued
liabilities of TII, forgave receivables from TII of $306,177 and
issued a note payable of $250,000 to TII bearing interest of 8%
that was payable over an 18 month period. This $250,000
liability was eliminated prior to June 30, 1995.

NOTE 20 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company entered into a definitive agreement effective
August 15, 1995 with Harris Miller Miller & Hanson, Inc.
("HMMH"), an established consulting firm. Under the terms of
the agreement, the company has licensed its proprietary Airport
Noise and Operations Monitoring Software ("ANOMS") and
transferred management and implementation of substantially all
of its airport noise monitoring contracts to HMMH (Airports
Business). The Company has also agreed to discontinue its
operations in this area and not to compete with HMMH in the
airport noise and operations monitoring systems industry.

NOTE 20 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS [Continued]
The Company was paid a one-time fee of $125,000, will receive
$150,000 in guaranteed annual royalties for the lessor of a
ten-year period or the term of the agreement, and will receive a
varying royalty of 2.5% to 4% on the gross revenues of HMMH from
the sale, installation, upgrade, and maintenance of airport
noise and operations monitoring systems. HMMH also assumed
$99,500 of the Company's liabilities related to the A HMMH will
use its best efforts to include the Company's hardware in its
future proposals for airport noise monitoring systems and the
Company will provide such equipment at a 25% discount from its
regular pricing structure. HMMH has the right to purchase all
of the Company's rights to the ANOMS software at a predetermined
price of $3,000,000, $2,200,000, $1,700,000 and $875,000,
respectively, on the three, five, seven and ten year
anniversaries of the agreement. HMMH has the right to terminate
the agreement after an initial three-year period and, at the end
of the ten year term, can elect to extend the agreement for an
additional five years during which it would be obligated to pay
a royalty of 3% on its gross revenues from the airport systems.
Subsequent to June 30, 1995 the Company issued 129,275 shares of
common stock upon exercise of common stock purchase options and
warrants. Total proceeds amounted to $283,371. The Company
also received $1,000,520 proceeds for the sale of 400,208 shares
of common stock in a private placement. The Company also issued
27,679 share of common stock for non-cash consideration.
Subsequent to June 30, 1995, the Company entered into an
Agreement in Principle wherein it would acquire technology held
by Sensar Corporation, a privately-held Utah corporation
("Sensar"), in exchange for the issuance of restricted Common
Stock, the payment of cash to redeem certain shares of Sensar,
and the assumption or payment of the liabilities of Sensar.
Sensar holds rights to patented proprietary technology with
respect to a time-of-flight mass spectrometer designed to detect
smaller quantities of impurities in gas vapors than is possible
with competing instruments with a much quicker analysis time.
The acquisition is subject to the completion of a due diligence
review of Sensar, the negotiation and execution of definitive
agreements and other provisions. There can be no assurance that
the transaction contemplated by the Agreement in Principle will
be consummated.
