REGISTRATION BY SUCCESSOR ISSUER

Pacific Aerospace & Electronics, Inc., a Washington corporation (the
"Company"), files this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form SB-2 Registration
Statement as the successor issuer to PCT Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation
("PCTH"), within the meaning of Rule 414 of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"). The Company became the successor to PCTH as the
result of the merger of PCTH into the Company (the "Reincorporation Merger"),
which was effective on November 30, 1996. The Reincorporation Merger was
effected for the purpose of changing PCTH's state of incorporation from Nevada
to Washington. Immediately prior to the Reincorporation Merger, the Company had
no assets or liabilities.

The Reincorporation Merger was approved by the shareholders of PCTH at its
1996 annual meeting of shareholders, for which proxies were solicited pursuant
to Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"). Subsequently, the Company filed a Form 8-B with the Securities
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") to adopt the Form 8-A Registration
Statement filed by the Company under Registration No. 0-26820.

Pursuant to Rule 414(d) of the Securities Act, the Company, as successor to
PCTH, hereby adopts the Form SB-2 Registration Statement, as amended, filed by
PCTH with the Commission under Registration No. 333- 5011 (the "Registration
Statement"), as the Company's own Registration Statement for all purposes of the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES UNDERLYING OVERALLOTMENT OPTION

Paulson Investment Company, Inc. and Cohig & Associates, Inc. (together,
the "Underwriters"), and PCTH, are parties to an Underwriting Agreement, dated
July 15, 1996 (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the form of which was filed with
the Commission as Exhibit 1.1 to the Registration Statement. In the Underwriting
Agreement, PCTH granted to the Underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to a
maximum of 337,500 units comprised of one share of PCTH's common stock ("Common
Stock") and one Common Stock purchase warrant, solely for the purpose of
covering overallotments in the sale of the units subject to the Registration
Statement (the "Overallotment Option"). The Overallotment Option expired on
August 30, 1996 without exercise by the Underwriters. Accordingly, the Company
hereby deregisters the 337,500 units constituting the Overallotment Option.

225,000 Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

PACIFIC AEROSPACE & ELECTRONICS, INC.

This Prospectus covers the issuance by Pacific Aerospace & Electronics,
Inc., a Washington corporation (the "Company"), successor issuer to PCT
Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("PCTH"), of up to 3,000,000 shares of the
Company's common stock, $.001 par value (the "Common Stock"), and 225,000 of the
Company's publicly-traded warrants to purchase Common Stock (the "Warrants").
The 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock will be issued by the Company from time to
time as follows:

(a) 2,250,000 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants
sold under the Company's Form SB-2 Registration Statement that was
declared effective on July 15, 1997 (the "Registration Statement"),
which is amended by the Post-Effective Amendment No.1 (the
"Post-Effective Amendment") of which this Prospectus is a part;

(b) 225,000 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of warrants held by
Paulson Investment Company, Inc., Chester F. Paulson, Lorraine
Maxfield and Cohig & Associates, Inc. (the "Underwriters' Warrants");

(c) 225,000 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of Warrants issuable
upon exercise of the Underwriters' Warrants; and

(d) 300,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of a warrant
held by UTCO Associates, Ltd. (the "UTCO Warrant").

This Prospectus also covers the resale, from time to time in the future, of
the 525,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Underwriters'
Warrants and the UTCO Warrant, and the 225,000 Warrants issuable upon exercise
of the Underwriters' Warrants. It is expected that such resales will be made
from time to time through the Nasdaq National Market System ("Nasdaq NMS") or
otherwise. Such resales are subject to the prospectus delivery and other
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").

Each Warrant entitles the warrant holder to purchase one share of Common
Stock at an exercise price of $4.6875 per share (the "Warrant Exercise Price").
The Company may redeem the outstanding Warrants, in whole or in part, upon at
least 30 days prior written notice to the record holders of the Warrants, at a
price of $.25 per Warrant, at any time the closing bid price of the Common Stock
has been at least 200% of the Warrant Exercise Price for each of the 20
consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of the redemption
notice. As of the date of this Prospectus, no Warrant has been exercised or
redeemed.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read
in conjunction with, the more detailed information and financial statements and
related notes appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. See "Description of
Securities." Unless the context indicates otherwise, references in this
Prospectus to the "Company" are to Pacific Aerospace & Electronics, Inc. and its
consolidated subsidiaries.

The Company

Pacific Aerospace & Electronics, Inc. (the "Company") is an
acquisition-oriented, technology-driven company that develops, manufactures,
markets and sells a broad range of precision components and electronic
assemblies designed to operate with a high degree of reliability in harsh
environments such as the ocean, space and the human body. Markets served by the
Company include the aerospace, space, defense, medical, energy, transportation,
telecommunications and general electronics industries. The Company's Common
Stock trades on the Nasdaq NMS under the symbol "PCTH," and its public Warrants
trade under the symbol "PCTHW."

The Company currently operates through six wholly owned subsidiaries that
are organized into two operational groups: the Electronics Group and the
Aerospace Group.

The Company's Electronics Group is composed of three businesses: Pacific
Coast Technologies, Inc. ("Pacific Coast"), Ceramic Devices, Inc. ("Ceramic
Devices"), and Northwest Technical Industries, Inc. ("NTI"). Pacific Coast
produces a variety of electronics packages and connectors shielded from their
environment by the Company's proprietary ceramic seals; Ceramic Devices produces
devices designed to filter out electromagnetic interference detrimental to other
electronic devices; and NTI produces explosively bonded metals that are used in
the electronic devices produced by Pacific Coast and Ceramic Devices.

The Company's Aerospace Group is also composed of three businesses:
Cashmere Manufacturing Co., Inc. ("Cashmere"), Morel Industries, Inc. ("Morel"),
and Seismic Safety Products, Inc. ("Seismic"). Cashmere and Morel manufacture
machined or cast metal products for many applications, including products that
are incorporated into or complementary with the products of the Company's other
subsidiaries, and Seismic designs and sells automatic natural gas shut-off
valves manufactured by Cashmere.

The customers of the Company's Electronics Group consist, to a substantial
degree, of large manufacturing companies in the aerospace, defense, energy,
medical and general electronics industries. These include Hughes Aircraft
Company ("Hughes Aircraft"), Honeywell Inc.'s Military Avionics Division,
Lockheed Martin Corporation ("Lockheed Martin"), Northrop Grumman Corporation
("Northrop Grumman"), Space Systems/Loral, Inc., Westinghouse Electric
Corporation, TRW, Inc., Litton, Tri Manufacturing and Maritime Manufacturing.
The customers of the Company's Aerospace Group include The Boeing Company
("Boeing"), Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd., Deere & Company, Northrop Grumman
and PACCAR, Inc.

The Company's strategy is to expand the range of products it offers and to
produce a larger portion of the customer's total product requirement, through
both internal growth and the acquisition or development of new technologies. The
Company has recently experienced significant growth in revenues, as a result of
both the acquisition of complementary businesses and internal growth. The
Company hopes to continue to experience growth and to exploit both technological
and marketing synergies resulting from the integration of the businesses it has
acquired and other businesses or technologies that it may acquire in the future.
The Company has recently announced a plan to form an Information Technology
Group comprised of companies with which it has entered into non-binding letters
of intent, contingent upon the successful completion of the Company's due
diligence and certain other conditions. See "Business - Formation of the
Information Technology Group."

The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Washington. Its
corporate offices are located at 434 Olds Station Road, Wenatchee, Washington,
and its telephone number is (509) 664-8000.

RISK FACTORS

Forward-looking statements in this Prospectus are made pursuant to the safe
harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These
forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are
subject to risks and uncertainties related to the Company's operations. These
risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following risk
factors, in addition to the other information contained in this Prospectus, and
actual results could differ materially from those projected in the
forward-looking statements as a result of those risk factors.

Past History of Net Losses. While the Company reported net profit of
$811,000 in first quarter fiscal 1998 and $1,682,000 in fiscal 1997, it reported
net losses of $1,411,000 in fiscal 1995 and $999,000 in fiscal 1996, and has not
demonstrated a continuing ability to achieve substantial profitable operations.
The Company's ability to maintain profitable operations in the future will
depend on many factors, including the Company's ability to assimilate its recent
and proposed future acquisitions and to finance its subsidiaries' production,
the degree of market penetration of its products, its ability to develop new
products, the degree of market acceptance of new products, the level of
competition in the markets in which the Company operates and the success of its
entry into potential new lines of business. The Company's orders and backlog are
growing, and the Company must spend more to support a higher level of inventory
and operations. These requirements will affect cash flow and results of
operations over the short term and could result in significant future losses if
expected growth is not sustained.

Acquisition Risks. As part of its business strategy, the Company has
recently grown rapidly as a result of several acquisitions that have placed, and
will continue to place, a significant strain on its management, financial and
other resources. Past and future acquisitions may subject the Company to many
risks, including risks relating to integrating and managing the operations and
personnel of acquired companies, and maintaining and implementing uniform
standards, controls, procedures and policies. The success of future acquisitions
will depend, in part, upon the Company's ability to assess and manage the risks
typically associated with acquisitions, including the risks of assessing the
value, strengths, and weaknesses of acquisition candidates or new products,
possible diversion of management attention from the Company's existing
businesses, reduction of cash, disruption of product development cycles,
dilution of earnings per share, or other factors. A failure to achieve or
sustain the anticipated benefits of any acquisition could result in that
acquisition having a detrimental effect on the Company's results of operations,
cash flow and financial condition.

Potential Entry Into New Industry. In June 1997, the Company announced a
plan to form an Information Technology Group. In connection with that plan, the
Company entered into nonbinding letters of intent to acquire six companies to
become part of the proposed group if the transactions contemplated in the
letters of intent were to be consummated. The Company has already determined
after due diligence that it will not be acquiring two of those companies. The
Company is currently conducting due diligence regarding its plan to form the
group and regarding the four companies still under consideration (the "ITG
Companies"). Acquisition of each of the ITG Companies is subject to satisfactory
due diligence, negotiation of definitive agreements, satisfaction of closing
conditions and a number of other conditions. The Company entered into six-month
operations consulting and expense reimbursement agreements with three of the
companies originally under consideration, one of which has been canceled. The
Company has also provided an aggregate of $5,090,776 in bridge financing to
three of the companies under consideration. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and
Capital Resources - Pending Acquisitions - Formation of Information Technology
Group" and "Business - Formation of Information Technology Group." There is no
assurance that the Company will complete formation of the Information Technology
Group or purchase any of the ITG Companies. If the Company elects to purchase
all or some of the ITG Companies, there is no assurance that the Company will
successfully complete such acquisitions, or that it will be able to

6
<PAGE>
manage and integrate these companies effectively, if acquired. If the Company
elects not to purchase all or some of the ITG Companies to which it has made
bridge loans, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to collect all
or any of those loans. The Company's proposed establishment of the Information
Technology Group will be accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in
connection with acquisitions. See "Acquisition Risks." In addition, information
technology is a new industry for the Company, and the Company has no experience
managing or operating information technology companies. There is no assurance
that the Company will be able to develop the Information Technology Group
successfully if the Company decides to proceed with the proposed plan.

Dependence on Significant Customers. Cashmere depends almost entirely on
sales to Boeing. As a result of this dependence on Boeing, general economic
conditions and events affecting Boeing, all of which are outside the Company's
control, may have a significant impact on Cashmere's sales and consequently on
the Company's overall results of operations. Cashmere has entered into contracts
with Boeing that extend beyond one year to supply parts at fixed prices.
Accordingly, aluminum or other metal price increases or other cost increases can
adversely affect Cashmere's margins on the sale of those parts. In addition,
Boeing has considerable flexibility under its contract with Cashmere to reduce
its level of orders or to cease ordering products from Cashmere. Similarly,
Morel depends on sales to PACCAR Inc. and its Kenworth and Peterbilt divisions
(collectively, "PACCAR"). PACCAR has no contractual obligation to continue to
place orders for Morel's products. Both Cashmere and Morel have developed and
are implementing strategies intended to decrease their reliance on sales to
these primary customers. However, there is no assurance that either Cashmere or
Morel can successfully reduce its reliance on Boeing and PACCAR, respectively,
to a degree that will protect the Company if sales to these primary customers
decrease unexpectedly.

Possible Need for Additional Capital. The Company believes that the net
proceeds from its February 1997 private offering of Preferred Stock and its
Convertible Note Offering, together with its new credit facility with Key Bank
of Washington, will be sufficient to meet the Company's currently budgeted
working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. The Company's
actual capital needs, however, will depend on many factors, including the amount
of revenue generated from operations, the cost of increasing the Company's sales
and marketing activities, the ability of third-party suppliers to meet product
commitments, future acquisitions, and the continuing availability of bank
financing, none of which can be predicted with certainty. The Company may
receive additional funds upon the exercise of outstanding warrants and stock
options, but there is no assurance that any such warrants or stock options will
be exercised. As a result of these factors, the Company is unable to predict
accurately the amount or timing of future capital that it will need. The
inability to obtain additional capital if and when needed could materially and
adversely affect the Company's business and results of operations.

Competition. The Company operates in highly competitive markets. Most of
its competitors have greater financial resources, broader experience, better
name recognition and more substantial marketing operations than does the
Company, and represent substantial long-term competition. The industries in
which the Company currently competes are characterized by ongoing product
development efforts and evolving technology, and success depends in part on the
ability to gain a competitive advantage through proprietary technology. Although
the Company believes that its proprietary technology may give it a competitive
advantage with respect to its technology-based products, new developments by
competitors are expected to continue. The Company's competitors may develop
products that are viewed by customers as more effective or more economic than
the Company's product lines. The Company may not be able to compete successfully
against current and future competitors, and the competitive pressures faced by
the Company may materially adversely affect the Company's business and results
of operations.

7
<PAGE>
Technological Change; Development of New Products. The market for the
Company's products is characterized by steadily evolving technology and industry
standards, changes in customer needs, and new product introductions. The
Company's success will depend on its ability to enhance its current products,
develop new products that meet changing customer needs, advertise and market its
products, and respond to evolving industry standards and other technological
changes on a timely and cost-effective basis. The Company may not succeed in
developing new products or enhancing its existing products on a timely basis,
and such new products or enhancements may not achieve market acceptance.
Furthermore, from time to time the Company and others may announce new products,
enhancements or technologies that have the potential to replace or render the
Company's existing products obsolete. Any failure by the Company to anticipate
or respond adequately to changes in technology and customer preferences, the
introduction of new products or enhancements by others, or any significant
delays in the development or introduction of new products by the Company could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations
and financial condition.

Dependence on Key Personnel. The Company's success depends significantly on
Donald A. Wright, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and President, and a
small number of other senior management and operational personnel. The loss of
the services of any of these employees could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's ability to achieve its business objectives. The Company has key
man life insurance policies on the life of Mr. Wright in the total amount of $3
million. The Company's growth and future success will depend in large part on
its ability to attract and retain additional senior managers and highly skilled
personnel to provide management and technological depth and support, to enhance
and market its existing products and to develop new products. Competition for
skilled management, technical, marketing and sales personnel is intense. There
is no assurance that the Company will be successful in attracting and retaining
the key management, technical, marketing and sales personnel needed to support
its business and its recent and future acquisitions, and its failure to do so
would materially and adversely affect the Company's business and results of
operations.

Reliance on Proprietary Technology. The Company regards elements of its
technology as proprietary and relies primarily on a combination of patent, trade
secret, copyright and trademark laws, confidentiality procedures, and other
intellectual property protection methods to protect its proprietary technology.
The Company has 33 U.S. patents, one U.S. patent application allowed, two U.S.
patent applications pending, one Canadian patent application pending, and one
European patent application pending relating to certain of its technology and
products.

Patent Issuance, Enforceability and Expiration. There is no assurance that
the Company's patent applications will result in issued patents, that the
Company's existing patents or any future patents will give the Company any
competitive advantages for its products or technology, or that, if challenged,
the Company's patents will be held valid and enforceable. The Company's issued
patents expire at various times over the next 18 years, with 16 patents expiring
over the next five years. Although the Company believes that the manufacturing
processes of much of its patented technology, particularly the technology used
by Pacific Coast, are sufficiently complex that competing products made with the
same technology are unlikely, there is no assurance that the Company's
competitors will not design competing products using the same or similar
technology after these patents have expired.

Limits on Protection. Despite the precautions taken by the Company,
unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of the Company's products or
obtain and use information that the Company regards as proprietary, and existing
intellectual property laws give only limited protection. Policing violations of
such laws is difficult. The laws of certain countries in which the Company's
products are or may be distributed do not protect the Company's products and
intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United
States. There is no assurance that these protections will be adequate or that
the Company's competitors will not independently develop similar technology,
gain access to the Company's trade secrets or other proprietary information, or
design around the Company's patents. In fiscal 1996, the Company settled patent

8
<PAGE>
infringement litigation instituted by a competitor by purchasing two patents and
granting the competitor a license to use the patents. The Company may be
required to enter into other costly litigation to enforce its intellectual
property rights or to defend infringement claims by others. Such infringement
claims could require the Company to license the intellectual property rights of
third parties. There is no assurance that such licenses would be available on
reasonable terms, or at all.

Environmental Matters. The Company is subject to federal, state and local
laws, regulations and ordinances concerning solid waste disposal, hazardous
materials storage, use and disposal, air emissions, waste water disposal,
employee health and other environmental matters (together, "Environmental
Laws"). Proper waste disposal and environmental regulation are major
considerations for the Company because certain metals and chemicals used in its
manufacturing processes are classified as hazardous substances. As a generator
of hazardous materials, the Company is subject to financial exposure even if it
fully complies with these laws. Environmental Laws could become more stringent
over time, imposing greater compliance costs and increasing risks and penalties
associated with any violations. There is no assurance that any present or future
noncompliance with Environmental Laws will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

Morel. Since the Company acquired the Morel subsidiary in December 1995,
the Company has initiated an environmental compliance program for the Morel
facility, which includes obtaining all permits necessary for that facility to
operate in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws. As part of this
program, in January 1996 Morel obtained a temporary permit to discharge air
emissions and in April 1997, the State of Washington issued a temporary waste
water and storm water permit to Morel. Although the Company believes that final
permits will be issued, there is no assurance that final permits will be issued,
and the failure to obtain these permits would have a material adverse effect on
the Company.

NTI. Since the Company's acquisition of NTI in April 1997, the Company has
initiated an assessment of NTI's environmental compliance, including assessment
of the possible need for permits to discharge air emissions and storm water.

Effect of Non-Compliance. From time to time, the Company's operations may
result in noncompliance with Environmental Laws. If Environmental Laws are
violated, the Company could be liable for damages and for the costs of remedial
actions and could also be subject to revocation of permits needed to conduct its
business. Any such revocation could require the Company to cease or limit
production at one or more of its facilities, which could have a material adverse
effect on the Company.

Government Regulation. Certain of the Company's products are manufactured
and sold under United States government contracts or subcontracts. As with all
companies that provide products or services to the federal government, the
Company is directly and indirectly subject to various federal rules, regulations
and orders applicable to government contractors. Certain of these government
regulations relate specifically to the vendor-vendee relationship with the
government, such as the bidding and pricing rules. Under regulations of this
type, the Company must observe certain pricing restrictions, produce and
maintain detailed accounting data, and meet various other requirements. The
Company is also subject to many regulations affecting the conduct of its
business generally. For example, the Company must adhere to federal acquisition
requirements and standards established by the Occupational Safety and Health Act
relating to labor practices and occupational safety standards. Violation of
applicable government rules and regulations could result in civil liability, in
cancellation or suspension of existing contracts, or in ineligibility for future
contracts or subcontracts funded in whole or in part with federal funds.

raw materials and supplies used by the Company have occurred in the past and may
occur in the future. Future shortages or price fluctuations could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's ability to manufacture and sell its
products in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Product Liability. The Company is subject to the risk of product liability
claims and lawsuits for harm caused by products of the Company. The Company
maintains product liability insurance with a maximum coverage of $2 million.
However, there is no assurance that the Company's insurance will be sufficient
to cover any claims that may arise. A successful product liability claim in
excess of the Company's insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect
on the Company.

Shares Eligible for Future Sale. The sale of substantial amounts of the
Company's Common Stock in the public market or the prospect of such sales could
materially and adversely affect the market price of the Company's Common Stock.
As of October 20, 1997, the Company had 11,420,105 shares of Common Stock
outstanding. On completion of this Offering, the Company will have a total of
14,420,105 outstanding shares of Common Stock, assuming that (1) the Warrants,
the UTCO Warrant and the Underwriters' Warrants are fully exercised, (2) none of
the Company's outstanding stock options or non-public warrants are exercised,
and (3) no additional shares of Common Stock are issued. Of that total,
10,937,615 shares will be publicly traded or unrestricted, and 482,490 shares
will be subject to certain restrictions on resale or vesting. See "Shares
Eligible for Future Sale."

Additionally, at October 20, 1997 the Company had:

a. up to 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the
Company's Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan under which
options to purchase 1,263,616 shares of Common Stock have been
granted;
b. 322,500 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding
non-public warrants and a commitment to issue a non-public warrant for
375,000 shares of Common Stock;
c. up to 303,295 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
10,585 outstanding shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock
assuming an exercise price of $3.49 per share;
d. up to 2,172,690 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Convertible Notes issued by the Company on August 11, 1997, under the
Convertible Note Offering exempt from registration under Rule 506;
e. approximately 750,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the closing
of the Company's pending Fall 1997 Regulation D Offering;
f. up to 68,047 shares of Common Stock reserved but unissued under the
Company's Independent Director Stock Plan;
g. up to 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the
Company's 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, under which no shares
have been issued; and
h. up to 1,412,070 shares of restricted stock issuable upon the
consummation of acquisitions for which there are outstanding letters
of intent.

ACQUISITION HISTORY

The Holding Company

Original PCTH. PCT Holdings, Inc., a Washington corporation ("Original
PCTH"), was formed in May 1994 to hold the stock of Pacific Coast, which Donald
A. Wright, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and President, had originally
acquired in 1990, and to acquire Cashmere. See "Acquisition of Subsidiaries"
below. The formation of Original PCTH was treated as if a pooling for accounting
purposes.

Merger into Public Company. In February 1995, Original PCTH merged into a
wholly owned subsidiary of Verazzana Ventures, Ltd. ("Verazzana"), an inactive
public company (the "Verazzana merger"). In that merger, Verazzana changed its
name to PCT Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("PCTH"). The surviving
subsidiary in the Verazzana merger was dissolved in May 1996, causing Pacific
Coast, Cashmere and Seismic to become direct subsidiaries of PCTH, along with
Ceramic Devices and Morel. The Verazzana Merger was treated as if a pooling for
accounting purposes.

Reincorporation Merger. In November 1996, PCTH merged into the Company,
with the Company as the surviving entity, in order to reincorporate under the
laws of the State of Washington (the "Reincorporation Merger"). Prior to the
Reincorporation Merger, the Company was a wholly owned subsidiary of PCTH. In
the Reincorporation Merger, each share of PCTH common stock was converted into
one share of the Company's Common Stock, and each of the warrants and options to
purchase shares of PCTH's common stock were converted into warrants and options
to purchase the same number of shares of the Company's Common Stock. The
Reincorporation Merger was treated as if a pooling for accounting purposes.

Acquisition of Subsidiaries

Pacific Coast. Donald A. Wright purchased Pacific Coast in April 1990,
before the formation of the holding company. Mr. Wright acquired Pacific Coast
in exchange for cash and a promissory note to the sellers. In 1994, Mr. Wright
formed the holding company and initiated a series of strategic acquisitions of
companies whose operations and products the Company believes are complementary
to the products designed, manufactured and marketed by Pacific Coast. Pacific
Coast designs, manufactures and markets hermetically sealed electrical
connectors, electronic sealants and instrument packages, using patented and
proprietary technology.

Cashmere. The first company acquired by the holding company was Cashmere,
which was acquired in May 1994. The purchase price of the Cashmere acquisition
was the issuance of Original PCTH common stock, which was later exchanged for
791,666 shares of PCTH common stock. The transaction was treated as a purchase
for accounting purposes. Cashmere operates a precision machine shop that
produces diversified components and assemblies for the aerospace, defense,
electronics and transportation industries, including products and services
provided to the Company's other subsidiaries.

Ceramic Devices. The next company acquired was Ceramic Devices in April
1995 (effective for accounting purposes as of February 28, 1995). The purchase
price for the Ceramic Devices acquisition was the issuance to the sellers of two
promissory notes from PCTH totaling $600,000 in principal amount, and 133,333
shares of PCTH common stock. The transaction was treated as a purchase for
accounting purposes. Ceramic Devices designs and manufactures a line of
specialized filtering devices for use with electronic circuits operating in
hostile environments and has a customer base similar to that of Pacific Coast.

11
<PAGE>
Seismic. In November 1995, Seismic was formed to acquired substantially all
of the assets of a Florida corporation of the same name and to acquire certain
patents from affiliates of the Florida corporation. The purchase price for the
Seismic asset and patent acquisition was cash, certain deferred payment
obligations and 128,750 shares of PCTH common stock. The transaction was treated
as a purchase for accounting purposes. Seismic markets an automatic natural gas
shut-off valve activated by earthquakes, which is manufactured by Cashmere.

Morel. The next company acquired was Morel in December 1995 (effective for
accounting purposes as of November 30, 1995). The purchase price for the Morel
acquisition was the issuance of 650,000 shares of PCTH common stock, after
certain post-closing adjustments. The transaction was treated as a purchase for
accounting purposes. Morel manufactures precision cast aluminum parts used
principally in the transportation, heavy trucking and aerospace industries.

NTI. Most recently, the Company formed NTI which, on April 30, 1997,
acquired substantially all of the assets of Northwest Technical Industries,
Incorporated. The purchase price for the NTI acquisition was the issuance of
477,540 shares of the Company's Common Stock. The transaction was treated as a
purchase for accounting purposes. NTI manufactures explosively bonded dissimilar
metals and is a supplier to Pacific Coast.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The total offering price of the July 1996 public offering made pursuant to
the Registration Statement was $7,031,250. The net proceeds of that offering
were used to pay $2,438,000 in short-term debt and certain interest and fees
associated with such debt, to provide working capital for operations, and to
purchase capital equipment.

Assuming exercise of all of the Warrants, the Underwriters' Warrants and
the UTCO Warrant, the net proceeds to the Company under the Post-Effective
Amendment of which this Prospectus is a part, are estimated to be approximately
$13,885,000. The Company intends to use these proceeds to acquire additional
processing and manufacturing equipment, to fund certain facilities expansion, to
fund potential acquisitions, and to increase working capital.

The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the
Common Stock or Warrants offered by the Selling Shareholders under this
Prospectus.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Preliminary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus are made pursuant
to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance
and are subject to risks and uncertainties related to the Company's operations.
See "Risk Factors."

Overview

Effect of Acquisitions and Reincorporation Merger. The Company's fiscal
1996 and 1997 financial condition and results of operations were substantially
affected by two corporate acquisitions in fiscal 1996 and its most recent
acquisition in fiscal 1997. These acquisitions, as well as internal growth in
the Company's existing businesses and the acquired businesses, caused
substantial increases in net sales: from $3,456,000 in the first quarter of
fiscal 1996 to $11,776,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1998.

The Company's operating expenses and margins in fiscal 1996 and 1997 were
substantially affected by certain expenses directly associated with the
acquisitions, the Reincorporation Merger, and various capital raising
transactions. Merger and equity capital costs, including related legal,
accounting and other expenses, amounted to approximately $104,000 in fiscal 1996
and approximately $103,000 in fiscal 1997. The Company has also experienced
substantial increases in all other expense categories as a result of the
increase in operations. A portion of these expenses can be attributed to the
assimilation of acquired operations into the existing business.

Product Margins; Seasonality. The electronic products business conducted by
the Company's Electronics Group is characterized by relatively low volumes and
high margins. In comparison, volumes have historically been higher and margins
lower in the metal products business conducted by the Company's Aerospace Group,
than in the electronic products business. The Company believes that margins will
remain higher for electronic products than for metal products, although products
incorporating both electronic and metal parts are expected to generate margins
closer to electronic product margins. As a result of margin differences, changes
in product mix between electronic and metal products can be expected to affect
overall margins for the Company. The Company's historical results of operations
are therefore not necessarily indicative of future operating performance. The
Company has not experienced any material seasonality in its operations.

Working Capital; Financings. The Company has relied on securities offerings
(see "Liquidity and Capital Resources - Recent Developments" below) and
commercial borrowing arrangements to supply significant portions of its required
working capital. The Company's working capital requirements have been
substantially increased by the growth in its operations and by the significant
transaction-related expenses associated with its acquisitions. The Company
believes that the net proceeds from its February 1997 private offering of
Preferred Stock and its Convertible Note Offering, together with its new credit
facility with Key Bank of Washington, will be sufficient to meet the Company's
currently budgeted working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months.
However, there is no assurance that additional financing will be available to
the Company, if and when needed, or that the Company's working capital
requirements will not exceed those currently budgeted.

Segments. The Company has determined that it currently operates in two
business segments within the guidelines of SFAS No. 14. These business segments
are "Electronics" (Pacific Coast, Ceramic Devices and NTI) and "Aerospace and
Transportation" (Cashmere, Morel and Seismic). Accordingly, the Company

17
<PAGE>
has included the appropriate disclosure in Note 17, Business Segment
Information, in its audited financial statements. See "Financial Statements."

Implementation of Accounting Pronouncements. The Company has evaluated the
effect of the recent accounting pronouncements with future effective dates. SFAS
No. 128 "Earnings Per Share," SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income," and
SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information." Management believes that provisions of these recent pronouncements
will not have a material effect on its financial condition or reported results
of operations.

Net Operating Loss Carryforwards. At the Company's 1997 fiscal year end, it
had available net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes
of approximately $6,279,000, the benefits of which expire beginning in fiscal
2001 through fiscal 2011. The net operating losses created by the subsidiaries
prior to their acquisition and the net operating losses created as a
consolidated group or groups subsequent to a qualifying tax free merger or
acquisition have limitations related to the amount of usage by each subsidiary
or consolidated group, as described in the Internal Revenue Code. The following
approximate net operating losses were available on an individual company basis,
without taking into account any relevant expirations or limitations at the
Company's 1997 fiscal year end: Pacific Aerospace & Electronics, Inc. $218,000,
Pacific Coast $3,680,000, Ceramic Devices $184,000, Cashmere $532,000, Morel
$1,573,000, and Seismic $92,000. If the subsidiaries achieve profitable
operations, the net operating loss carryforwards available should reduce the
federal income taxes due in future years.

Factors affecting Future Results. The Company reported net income of
$1,682,000 in fiscal 1997 and net losses of $999,000 in fiscal 1996. Although
the Company achieved profitability in each quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company
has not yet demonstrated an ability to achieve consistently profitable
operations over a longer period. There is no assurance that profitable
operations will be sustained in fiscal 1998 or at any time thereafter. See "Risk
Factors - Past History of Net Losses."

Results of Operations for the Fiscal Years Ended May 31, 1997 and 1996

The Company acquired Seismic and Morel in fiscal 1996, and NTI in fiscal
1997. Accordingly, the Company's results of operations for fiscal 1996 included
a full year of operations at Pacific Coast, Ceramic Devices and Cashmere and six
months at Morel and Seismic. Fiscal 1997 operations included a full year of
operations at Pacific Coast, Cashmere, Ceramic Devices, Morel and Seismic, and
one month at NTI.

The Company's net sales increased a total of $13,450,000 in fiscal 1997
from fiscal 1996. Of that increase, $2,270,000 resulted from increased revenue
of Pacific Coast; $3,488,000 resulted from increased revenue of Cashmere;
$429,000 resulted from increased revenue of Ceramic Devices; ($7,000) was from a
full year of operations of Seismic; $7,087,000 was from a full year of
operations of Morel, and $183,000 was from one month of operations of NTI.

Pacific Coast's net sales in fiscal 1997 were 36% higher than its net sales
in fiscal 1996. The Company believes that this increase is a result of a variety
of factors, including larger order sizes, broader market acceptance of the
Company's proprietary technologies, increased sales of higher priced products,
the addition of new customers, and improved engineering, design and
manufacturing capabilities. Based on these factors and the revenue growth in
fiscal 1996 and 1997, the Company expects that Pacific Coast will experience the
most substantial rates of growth in revenue in the future.

Cashmere's net sales in fiscal 1997 increased by 50% over net sales in
1996. The Company believes that the increase in Cashmere's net sales is
primarily due to increased production levels of commercial aircraft by Boeing.
Net sales of Ceramic Devices in fiscal 1997 increased by 32% over net sales in
fiscal 1996. The Company believes that the increase in net sales of Ceramic
Devices is due primarily to increasing order sizes from existing customers.
Morel's net sales in fiscal 1997 were 17% higher than its annualized net sales
in the

18
<PAGE>
prior year. The Company believes that increase is a result of a variety of
factors, including the addition of new customers, including Boeing. Seismic's
net sales in fiscal 1997 decreased 4% from net sales in 1996.

Intercompany sales, which were eliminated in consolidation and not included
in the above analysis, totaled $589,000 for fiscal 1997. Intercompany sales for
fiscal 1997 were made by Cashmere to Pacific Coast ($151,000), to Seismic
($82,000), and to Morel ($300,000), by Pacific Coast to Ceramic Devices
($6,000), and by NTI to Pacific Coast ($60,000). In comparison, intercompany
sales in fiscal 1996 were made by Cashmere to Pacific Coast ($375,000), to
Seismic ($124,000) and to Morel ($224,000).

Gross profit of the Company increased to $8,206,000 in fiscal 1997 from
$4,286,000 in fiscal 1996. This represents an increase to 24% of net sales in
fiscal 1997 from 20% of net sales in fiscal 1996. The increase in gross profit
margin is primarily attributable to the increase in net sales of Pacific Coast,
Cashmere, Ceramic Devices and Morel, and the corresponding production
efficiencies gained with those sales increases. The Company also believes that
its investments in new state-of-the-art equipment contributed to the improvement
in gross profit.

Of those amounts, interest income increased to $126,000 in fiscal 1997 from
$37,000 in fiscal 1996. Interest income in fiscal 1997 resulted primarily from
earnings on a $1,000,000 certificate of deposit held as collateral for Pacific
Coast's Community Development Block Grant loan from Washington State and Chelan
County. Interest expense decreased to $510,000 in fiscal 1997 from $535,000 in
fiscal 1996, primarily as a result of the reduction of debt associated with the
use of proceeds from its July 1996 public offering, proceeds from its February
1997 preferred stock sale, and reduction of its bank line of credit balances
throughout the year.

Merger and equity capital costs of $103,000 in fiscal 1997 primarily
represent expenses related to the NTI acquisition, the Reincorporation Merger,
and the legal costs associated with pending or abandoned acquisition
opportunities. Since "merger and equity capital costs" are no longer significant
enough to require line item treatment, they have been included in operating
expenses. Merger and equity capital costs of $104,000 in fiscal 1996 primarily
represent expenses related to the Morel and Seismic acquisitions. See
"Description of Business - Formation."

The federal income tax expense of $50,000 for fiscal 1997 represents the
alternative minimum tax impact of taxable net income, since the Company has net
operating loss carryforwards sufficient to offset fiscal 1997 regular taxable
income. The federal income benefit of $67,000 for fiscal 1996 resulted from
recording deferred tax assets for certain net operating losses generated during
fiscal 1996.

Results of Operations for the First Quarters Ended August 31, 1997 and August
31, 1996

Net sales for the first quarter ended August 31, 1997 were $11,776,000,
compared to net sales of $7,445,000 for the first quarter ended August 31, 1996,
an increase of $4,331,000. In the Aerospace Group, net sales of Cashmere
increased by $2,406,000, or 128.2%, between the two periods, and net sales of
Morel increased by $835,000, or 29.7%, between the two periods, in both cases
primarily as a result of increased orders in the commercial aircraft market. Net
sales of Seismic remained essentially the same. Within the Electronics Group,
net sales of Pacific Coast declined $108,000, or 4.6%, between the two periods.
Net sales of Ceramic Devices increased $652,000, or 177.2%, between the two
periods, primarily as a result of increased order backlog and production
throughput increases. NTI contributed net sales of $546,000 for the quarter, its
first full quarter of operations for the Company.

Gross profit for the quarter ended August 31, 1997 was $2,983,000, compared
to gross profit of $1,945,000 for the quarter ended August 31, 1996, an increase
of $1,038,000. The Company's gross profit percentage declined slightly from
26.1% in 1996 to 25.3% in 1997. In the Aerospace Group, Cashmere's gross profit
increased $312,000, or 60.1%, between the two periods, primarily related to
Cashmere's increase

19
<PAGE>
in net sales, and Morel's gross profit increased $297,000, or 94.3%, primarily
related to Morel's increase in net sales and efficiencies gained through the
addition of capital assets in the production facility. Seismic's gross profit
remained the same. In the Electronics Group, Pacific Coast's gross profit
declined by $375,000, or 35.0%, primarily as a result of changes in product mix
between the two quarterly periods, and Ceramic Devices' gross profit increased
$515,000, or 1,287.5%, primarily as a result of Ceramic Devices' increase in net
sales and increased production efficiencies. NTI contributed gross profit of
$289,000 for the quarter.

Operating expenses for the quarter ended August 31, 1997 were $2,007,000,
compared to $1,576,000 for the quarter ended August 31, 1996, an increase of
$431,000. In the Aerospace Group, Cashmere's operating expenses increased
$5,000, or 1.0%, and Morel's operating expenses increased $31,000, or 6.9%. In
the Electronics Group, Pacific Coast's operating expenses increased $38,000, or
7.3%. Ceramic Devices' operating expenses increased $48,000, or 42.1%, primarily
as a result of its significant increase in net sales. NTI's operating expenses
for the quarter were $191,000. Interest expense for the quarter ended August 31,
1997 was $130,000, compared to $174,000 in the same quarter last year, an
increase of $44,000, or 25.3%, primarily related to the reduction of average
long term debt outstanding during the comparative periods.

Net income for the quarter ended August 31, 1997 was $811,000, or $.07
income per share, which represents an improvement over net income of $226,000,
or $.03 income per share for the quarter ended August 31, 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

Overview. At August 31, 1997, total current assets were $24,460,000, and
total current liabilities were $6,621,000, resulting in net working capital of
$17,839,000 and a current ratio of 3.7 to 1.0. Comparable amounts at May 31,
1997 were $18,939,000 of current assets and $5,849,000 of current liabilities,
resulting in net working capital of $13,090,000, and a current ratio of 3.2 to
1.0.

Recent Securities Offerings.

Spring 1996 Regulation S Offering. In May 1996, the Company closed a
Regulation S offering pursuant to which the Company raised proceeds, net of
commissions, of approximately $1,340,000. The proceeds of that offering were
used primarily for working capital and to retire short-term debt.

July 1996 Public Offering. On July 19, 1996, the Company closed an
underwritten public offering of 2,250,000 units, with each unit consisting of
one share of Common Stock and one Warrant, at a total offering price of
$7,031,250 (the "July 1996 public offering"). The proceeds of the July 1996
public offering were used to pay short-term debt and certain interest and fees
associated with such debt, to provide working capital for operations, and to
purchase capital equipment.

Preferred Stock Offering. Effective as of February 28, 1997, the Company
completed a private placement of the Preferred Stock at a total offering price
of $5,000,000 (the "Preferred Stock offering"), in a transaction exempt from
registration under Rule 506. The Company used the proceeds for strategic
acquisitions, the purchase of manufacturing equipment, facilities expansion and
working capital. Effective as of June 11, 1997, the Company registered 1,948,541
shares of Common Stock underlying the Preferred Stock on a Form S-3 Registration
Statement. At October 20, 1997, 39,415 shares of Preferred Stock had been
converted into 1,191,297 shares of Common Stock, and 10,585 shares of Preferred
Stock remained unconverted. The conversion of the preferred stock, the
registration, and the sale by the holders of the underlying Common Stock after
conversion will not generate any further cash to the Company.

Convertible Note Offering. In August 1997, the Company completed the
Convertible Note Offering to a small group of accredited investors at a total
offering price of $5,800,000, in a transaction exempt from registration under
Rule 506. In connection with the Convertible Note Offering, the Company agreed
to file

20
<PAGE>
a registration statement to register the Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of the Convertible Notes on a Form S-3 registration statement, within 90 days
after closing of the offering. The anticipated filing date of that registration
statement is mid-November, 1997. The conversion of the Convertible Notes, the
registration, and the sale by the holders of the underlying Common Stock after
conversion will not generate any further cash to the Company. The Company
intends to use the proceeds of the Convertible Note Offering primarily in
connection with acquisitions.

Fall 1997 Regulation D Offering. The Company is currently conducting an
offering of approximately $6.8 million to $8.5 million in Common Stock and
promissory notes to a small number of accredited investors, in a transaction
exempt from registration under Rule 506. In connection with that offering, the
Company expects to agree to file a registration statement to register the Common
Stock issuable in the pending Fall 1997 Regulation D Offering on a Form S-3
registration statement, within 120 after closing of that offering. The Company
would receive no cash as a result of that registration or in connection with the
resale by the holders of the Common Stock issued in the pending Fall 1997
Regulation D Offering. If consummated, the Company intends to use the proceeds
of the pending Fall 1997 Regulation D Offering primarily in connection with
proposed and future potential acquisitions.

Commercial Borrowings in Fiscal 1996 and 1997.

Bridge Financing. In March and May 1996, the Company received aggregate net
proceeds of approximately $1,270,000 from the issuance of short-term debt
pending completion of the Company's July 1996 public offering. The proceeds were
used principally to repay indebtedness to an existing lender and for operating
capital.

New Credit Facility. On May 29, 1997, the Company executed a commitment
letter with Key Bank of Washington providing for a revolving working capital
line of credit of up to $3,500,000 (the "Line of Credit"), a seven-year capital
equipment acquisition credit facility of up to $2,000,000 (the "Equipment
Line"), and a 10-year term loan of $700,000, or approximately 80% of the cost of
the recent addition to the Pacific Coast building (the "Construction Loan"). The
Line of Credit extends until September 1998 and replaces the Company's previous
line of credit from Silicon Valley Bank. On June 30, the Company executed a Loan
Agreement and Promissory Note for the Line of Credit, which as of October 20,
1997 has no outstanding balance. As of October 20, 1997, no documents had been
executed, and no funds had been advanced, in connection with the Construction
Loan or the Equipment Line.

Pending Acquisitions.

Formation of Information Technology Group. In June 1997, the Company
announced a plan to form an Information Technology Group. In connection with
that plan, the Company entered into nonbinding letters of intent to acquire six
companies to become part of the Information Technology Group, contingent upon
the successful completion of the Company's due diligence and certain other
conditions. The Company has already determined after due diligence that it will
not be acquiring two of those companies. The Company is still conducting due
diligence on four ITG Companies. See "Risk Factors - Potential Entry into New
Industries."

Bridge Loans. In connection with the proposed acquisitions, the
Company entered into an Operations Agreement with Jungle Street, Inc.
("Jungle Street"), one of the ITG Companies. As of October 20, 1997, the
Company had advanced approximately $2,551,500 to Jungle Street and its
wholly owned subsidiary, Televar, Inc. ("Televar"), under the Jungle Street
Operations Agreement. The Company has also advanced approximately $909,276
to another of the ITG Companies, MONITRx, Inc., under its non-binding
letter of intent. See "Business - Formation of Information Technology
Group."

21
<PAGE>
Brigadoon Financing. As part of the plan to form the Information
Technology Group, the Company also entered into an Operations Agreement
with Brigadoon.com, Inc. ("Brigadoon") in June 1997, pending completion of
the Company's due diligence under its non-binding letter of intent with
Brigadoon. The Company subsequently loaned approximately $1,630,000 to
Brigadoon, pursuant to that Operations Agreement, before electing not to
acquire Brigadoon. The Company has advised Brigadoon that the Company does
not intend to make further loans to Brigadoon, and, as of October 20, 1997,
the Company had demanded repayment of $1,280,000 of the outstanding loans.
The Company plans to demand repayment of the remaining $350,000 when
permitted under the terms of the demand promissory notes evidencing those
loans, and has so advised Brigadoon. Brigadoon has not repaid any of the
loans. As of August 13, 1997, Brigadoon issued to the Company a common
stock purchase warrant entitling the Company to purchase 12.5% of the fully
diluted common stock of Brigadoon for a purchase price of $1,000,000, or
$500,000 if Brigadoon did not repay one or more of the loans when due. The
Company has made a proposal to Brigadoon regarding a possible repurchase of
that warrant by Brigadoon.

Acquisition of Olympic Tool & Engineering, Inc. On August 26, 1997, the
Company announced that it has signed a nonbinding letter of intent to acquire
all of the outstanding stock of Olympic Tool & Engineering, Inc., of Shelton,
Washington ("Olympic Tool"), contingent upon the successful completion of the
Company's due diligence and certain other conditions. The Company is currently
conducting its due diligence. The transaction is valued at approximately $3.2
million in cash, notes and the Company's Common Stock. See "Business - Aerospace
Group - Acquisition of Olympic Tool."

Material Purchase Obligations and Facilities Expansion

Purchase Obligations. The Company has pending purchase orders with
equipment suppliers for capital equipment with an expected total cost of
approximately $900,000. The Company expects to take delivery of the equipment
during the second and third quarters of fiscal 1998. Additions and replacements
of plant and equipment are generally funded through working capital, trade-in
credits for the replaced equipment, or capital leases or long-term notes from
affiliates of the equipment vendors, the Company's lead bank, or other financing
institutions, which are secured by the equipment being acquired.

Facilities Expansion. During the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company
substantially completed an addition to the building that houses Pacific Coast
and Ceramic Devices consisting of approximately 12,000 square feet of production
space, and costing approximately $900,000. The Company has negotiated the
Construction Loan to provide financing for approximately 80% of the costs of the
addition. The Company has also acquired certain property adjacent to its
existing Wenatchee facilities and begun construction of an office building to
house the Company's executive, administrative and accounting personnel. Total
project costs for the office building are estimated at approximately $2.8
million.

Future Working Capital Needs. The Company believes that the net proceeds
from its recent securities offerings, together with its new credit facility with
Key Bank of Washington, will be sufficient to meet the Company's currently
budgeted working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. However,
the Company may also seek other equity and/or debt financing for pending or
future acquisitions or with respect to capital equipment or facilities expansion
plans. The Company's actual capital needs will depend upon numerous factors,
including the amount of revenue generated from operations, the cost of
increasing the Company's sales and marketing activities, the ability of
third-party suppliers to meet product commitments, any other future
acquisitions, and the continuing availability of bank financing, none of which
can be predicted with certainty. The Company may receive additional funds upon
exercise of the Warrants, the UTCO Warrant, the Underwriters' Warrants, and
other outstanding non-public warrants and stock options, but there is no
assurance of such exercise. As a result of these and other factors, the Company
is unable to predict accurately the amount or timing of future capital that it
will require. Inability to obtain additional future capital could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's growth and results of operations.

BUSINESS

Overview

The Company currently operates through six wholly owned subsidiaries that
are organized into two operational groups: the Electronics Group and the
Aerospace Group. The Company's Electronics Group is composed of three
businesses: Pacific Coast, Ceramic Devices, and NTI. Pacific Coast produces a
variety of electronics packages and connectors shielded from their environment
by the Company's proprietary ceramic seals; Ceramic Devices produces devices
designed to filter out electromagnetic interference detrimental to other
electronic devices; and NTI produces explosively bonded metals that are used in
the electronic devices produced by Pacific Coast and Ceramic Devices.

The Company's Aerospace Group is also composed of three businesses:
Cashmere, Morel, and Seismic. Cashmere and Morel manufacture machined or cast
metal products for many applications, including products that are incorporated
into or complementary with the products of the Company's other subsidiaries, and
Seismic designs and sells automatic natural gas shut-off valves manufactured by
Cashmere.

The customers of the Company's Electronics Group consist, to a substantial
degree, of large manufacturing companies in the aerospace, defense, energy,
medical and general electronics industries. These include Hughes Aircraft,
Honeywell Inc.'s Military Avionics Division, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman,
Space Systems/Loral, Inc., Westinghouse Electric Corporation, TRW, Inc., Litton,
Tri Manufacturing and Maritime Manufacturing. The Electronics Group also markets
and sells its electronic products to a variety of smaller, specialized
electronics companies. The customers of the Company's Aerospace Group include
Boeing, Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd., Deere & Company, Northrop Grumman and
PACCAR.

The Company's strategy for its Electronics and Aerospace Groups is to
expand the range of products it offers and to produce a larger portion of the
customer's total product requirement, through internal growth and the
acquisition or development of new technologies. The Company has recently
experienced significant growth in revenues, as a result of both the acquisition
of complementary businesses and internal growth within the operating
subsidiaries in those groups. The Company hopes to continue to experience growth
and to exploit both technological and marketing synergies resulting from the
integration of the businesses it has acquired and other businesses or
technologies that it may acquire in the future. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for a discussion of
the Company's business segments.

The Company intends to continue to evaluate opportunities for growth
through expansion of current operations and through the acquisition of other
entities or lines of business. The Company's strategy is to expand the range of
products it offers and to produce a larger portion of the customer's total
product requirement, through both internal growth and the acquisition or
development of new technologies. The Company has recently experienced
significant growth in revenues, as a result of both the acquisition of
complementary businesses and internal growth. The Company hopes to continue to

23
<PAGE>
diligence and certain other conditions. The proposed acquisition of each ITG
Company is subject to the satisfactory completion of the Company's due diligence
investigations, negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement with that
company, and other closing conditions. See "The Information Technology Group."

The Electronics Group

Pacific Coast Technologies, Inc.

Products. Pacific Coast designs, manufactures and markets hermetically
sealed electrical connectors, electronic sealants and instrument packages, using
patented and proprietary technology. Pacific Coast was founded in 1976 and was
acquired by Mr. Wright in 1990. See "Formation - Acquisition of Subsidiaries
- -Pacific Coast". Pacific Coast's products are specifically designed for use in
applications that operate in harsh environments, such as the ocean, space and
the human body, which experience extremes in temperature, pressure or
corrosiveness. Pacific Coast distributes its products primarily to the defense,
aerospace, and telecommunications industries, the energy industry, and the
medical industry. In the defense, aerospace, and telecommunications industries,
Pacific Coast's largest customer group, its products are used in radar,
avionics, and telecommunications applications. Pacific Coast participated in the
production of the world's first hermetically sealed fiber optic connector for
use on the international space station Alpha. In the energy industry, Pacific
Coast's products are used in tools for surveying oil wells. In the medical
industry, Pacific Coast's products can be found in pacemakers, bone growth
stimulators and other implantable electronic devices such as audio implants for
the hearing impaired.

Pacific Coast uses its proprietary ceramic sealant, Kryoflex(R), in many of
its products to provide a high level of hermetic seal protection in harsh
environments. Kryoflex is a multiple-phase derivative of ceramic oxide
crystalline silicate. A Kryoflex seal is mechanically stronger, and withstands
more heat and pressure than the glass or brazed ceramic seals used by many of
Pacific Coast's competitors. Unlike many of its competitors, a Kryoflex seal can
bond to a number of different and dissimilar metals. The composition and method
of producing Kryoflex is a proprietary trade secret of Pacific Coast.

Pacific Coast has patented its technology in the field of explosively
bonded metals. This technology allows dissimilar metals to be welded together to
make electronic connectors and packages. The resulting devices are lighter than
those made entirely of stainless steel but have equivalent hermetic seal
protection. This technology makes Pacific Coast products preferred where light
weight is a requirement, such as in space applications.

Pacific Coast also has several patented metal matrix composite
technologies. Further development of metal matrix composites will allow Pacific
Coast to make lighter, more durable electronic packages.

Pacific Coast generally develops new products from its existing
technologies in response to specific customer needs, with such development
almost exclusively funded by its customers. Pacific Coast plans to continue
developing new technologies to meet the changing requirements of its customers
and, where appropriate, to file additional patent applications for those new
technologies. Pacific Coast may also purchase additional strategic proprietary
technology from third-party developers. Pacific Coast does not expect to devote
substantial resources to research and development that is not funded by
customers.

Customers. Pacific Coast's customer base includes Fortune 1000 companies as
well as smaller, specialized firms. For fiscal 1997, Pacific Coast's major
customers in the defense, aerospace and telecommunications markets included ST
Olektron Corp., Honeywell Inc.'s Military Avionics Division, Amphenol
Corporations, AlliedSignal Inc.'s Aerospace Equipment Systems division, Boeing
Aerospace, Space Systems/Loral, Inc., Hughes Aircraft, Litton, Santa Barbara
Research Center, and Lockheed Martin. Pacific Coast's major customers in the
energy market during that period included Schlumberger Anadrill, and its French
parent company, Schlumberger Industries, Inc., Baker Hughes and Western Atlas
International, Inc.

24
<PAGE>
Pacific Coast's major customers in the medical market during fiscal 1997 were
Advanced Bionics Corporation and Electro-Biology, Inc. Pacific Coast has a
varied customer base, and no single customer accounted for more than 10% of its
net sales for fiscal 1997, except for Amphenol Aerospace at 17.2%.

Strategy. Pacific Coast's strategy is to increase its sales and market
share by developing increasingly sophisticated electronic packages, modules and
subsystems that integrate its proprietary technology and products made by the
Company's other subsidiaries. Pacific Coast also plans to expand its
cross-marketing with the Company's other subsidiaries. As sales volumes
increase, Pacific Coast intends to increase its automation in order to obtain
additional efficiencies. Pacific Coast is also developing a number of standard
products that it believes can be produced and sold more cost effectively than
custom products. In the aerospace and defense industries, the Company believes
that there is a significant potential for increased use of its products in
satellite and ground-based radar applications. In the communications industry,
Pacific Coast believes that there is similar potential for use of its products
in radio frequency applications. In the energy market, Pacific Coast plans to
continue to develop new devices to be incorporated on oil exploration tools in
order to take advantage of the emerging development of oil fields in Russia,
China, and other areas. In the medical devices market, Pacific Coast expects to
develop standard and custom devices to support more sophisticated audio
implants, bone growth stimulators, pacemakers and other implantable electronic
devices.

Ceramic Devices, Inc.

Products. Ceramic Devices designs and manufactures a line of specialized
filtering devices for use with electronic circuits operating in hostile
environments. Ceramic Devices was founded in 1982, and the Company purchased it
as of February 1995 to obtain a source of ceramic filters for Pacific Coast's
connectors and electronic products. Ceramic Devices' products filter out
electromagnetic interference and other undesirable electrical signals that pose
significant problems for the manufacturers and users of high-performance,
high-reliability electronic systems. Ceramic Devices is an approved supplier of
EMI filtering devices to most military and aerospace contractors. Ceramic
Devices fabricates all components of its multilayer capacitors and filters to
military requirements and individualized customer specifications. Ceramic
Devices' product development is generally funded by its customers.

Customers. Ceramic Devices' customer base is generally the same as the
customer base of Pacific Coast, including large defense, aerospace and
telecommunications companies. Such customers purchase Ceramic Devices products
for incorporation into sophisticated electronic systems. Ceramic Devices' major
customers include Hughes Aircraft, Lockheed Martin, AlliedSignal Inc.'s
Aerospace Equipment Systems division, and Litton Corp. No one customer accounted
for more than 10% of Ceramic Devices' net sales for fiscal 1997, except for
Hughes Aircraft at 22% and Litton Corp. at 12%. Because the customer base of
Pacific Coast represents potential customers for Ceramic Devices, the companies
use the same direct sales force and manufacturers' representative group.

Strategy. The Ceramic Devices growth strategy includes increasing its
marketing efforts to existing and potential customers in the defense, aerospace
and telecommunications industries, and targeting customers of Pacific Coast in
the medical industry. In May 1996, Ceramic Devices completed its move from San
Diego, California to the Pacific Coast facility in Wenatchee, Washington. The
Ceramic Devices strategy also includes increasing the efficiency of its
production process through interaction with Pacific Coast, combining its filters
with Pacific Coast products, and marketing Ceramic Devices products together
with products of Pacific Coast.

Northwest Technical Industries, Inc.

Products. NTI manufactures explosively bonded dissimilar metals, such as
aluminum and stainless steel, using proprietary technology. This technology is
used in products where light weight is a requirement, such as in space
applications, energy and physics applications where strength at high temperature
and heat dissipation is a requirement, and marine and chemical processing
applications where corrosion resistance is

25
<PAGE>
a requirement. NTI distributes its products primarily to the aerospace, defense,
energy and marine industries. NTI's predecessor was founded in 1970, and was
acquired by the Company in 1997 in order to assure a source of explosively
bonded metals for the other companies in the Electronics Group.

Customers. NTI's largest single customer in fiscal 1997 was Pacific Coast,
representing approximately 15.8% of sales. Pacific Coast incorporates NTI's
explosively bonded materials into a variety of its connectors and electronic
packages. Other significant customers of NTI include TRI Manufacturing, Newport
News, Oxford Instruments, Rail Products, Litton Systems and Lockheed Martin.

Strategy. NTI's strategy is to continue to serve its current customer base,
and to increase its sales and market share by targeting customers of Pacific
Coast and Ceramic Devices who may need permanently bonded, lightweight metal
composites for other uses in their products. NTI also plans to use the direct
sales force and manufacturing representative group used by Pacific Coast and
Ceramic Devices and to participate in cross-marketing to potential customers
with Pacific Coast and Ceramic Devices.

The Aerospace Group

Cashmere Manufacturing Co., Inc.

Products. Cashmere operates a precision machine shop that produces
diversified components and assemblies for the aerospace, defense, electronics
and transportation industries. Cashmere was founded in 1969, and the Company
purchased it in 1994 to provide precision machined products initially for
Pacific Coast. Cashmere now provides products for other subsidiaries of the
Company as well. Cashmere produces principally aluminum products, ranging from
small connectors to very complex assemblies. Cashmere builds to order only, in
conformance with the machining specifications of its customers. Cashmere is
DI-9000 approved and ISO 9002 compliant, which qualifies it to perform work for
most aerospace, medical equipment and general electronic companies.

Customers. Prior to its acquisition by the Company, Cashmere's sales were
almost exclusively to Boeing. Through a diversification program, the percentage
of Cashmere's sales to Boeing was decreased to approximately 66% for fiscal
1997, down from 75% for fiscal 1996. Sales to Boeing by Cashmere and other
Company subsidiaries constituted approximately 24% of the Company's consolidated
net sales for fiscal 1997. General economic conditions and events affecting
Boeing, all of which are outside the control of the Company, may have a
significant impact on Cashmere's sales and consequently on the overall results
of operations of the Company. Cashmere has entered into contracts with Boeing
which extend beyond one year to supply parts at fixed prices, and, accordingly,
aluminum or other metal price increases or other cost increases can adversely
affect Cashmere's margins on the sale of those parts. Boeing has considerable
flexibility under its contracts with Cashmere to reduce its level of orders or
to cease ordering products from Cashmere.

During fiscal 1997, Cashmere's major customers were Boeing, NTK Aviation,
Nissho Iwai American Corporation, Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. and Northrop
Grumman. Pacific Coast, Morel, and Seismic together accounted for 5% of
Cashmere's sales for fiscal 1997. Cashmere manufactures a variety of aluminum
and stainless steel connector shells and electronic packages for Pacific Coast,
machines cast parts for Morel, and is the sole manufacturer of the natural gas
shut-off valve marketed by Seismic.

Strategy. Through access to the customer base of Pacific Coast, Cashmere is
pursuing strategies intended to continue reducing its dependency on Boeing.
Cashmere has expanded its direct sales effort, and intends to concentrate on
customer service and offer additional value-added services. Most Pacific Coast
products require machining, allowing Cashmere to benefit from the sales and
marketing efforts of Pacific Coast. Morel is also currently a customer of
Cashmere. Cashmere and Morel have joint direct sales coverage in the Pacific
Northwest and Southern California in an effort to expand the market for products
of both companies.

26
<PAGE>
Morel Industries, Inc.

Products. Morel manufactures precision cast aluminum parts used principally
in the transportation, heavy trucking and aerospace industries. Morel was
founded in 1909, and the Company purchased Morel in 1995 to provide cast parts
for its other subsidiaries and to expand its presence in the transportation
industry. Morel uses sand castings, lost foam and permanent molds to contain and
shape molten aluminum. These components are often further shaped or patterned on
Morel's machinery to meet a customer's specific needs. Morel also provides
additional services such as painting, machining and general assembly work. Morel
is currently operating at less than full capacity and believes that it could use
its remaining capacity without significant additional capital expenditures.

Customers. Morel is dependent on sales to PACCAR, Inc., including its
Kenworth and Peterbilt divisions (collectively, "PACCAR"). Net sales to PACCAR
constituted 63% of Morel's net sales in fiscal 1997. Net sales to PACCAR
constituted 22% of the Company's consolidated net sales for that year. PACCAR
has no contractual obligation to continue to place orders for products of Morel.
Morel's other major customers include Deere & Company, Western Star Trucks,
Smith Co., Impco Technologies, and Boeing.

Strategy. Morel's customers are increasingly requesting products that are
cast and machined by a single provider. The Company believes that Morel's
ability to machine its aluminum parts, combined with additional capacity at
Cashmere, will increase its ability to compete for finished cast aluminum
business. The Company plans to diversify Morel's customer base by taking
advantage of its access to the customers and marketing of the Company's other
subsidiaries. The Company also has plans to provide Morel access to proprietary
technology in order to enhance Morel's competitive advantages in its industry.
The Company believes the addition of direct sale representatives in the Pacific
Northwest and Southern California for Morel and Cashmere will allow Morel to
diversify its customer base and reduce its dependence on PACCAR. There is no
assurance, however, that Morel can successfully implement these or other
strategies so as to reduce its reliance on PACCAR to a degree that will protect
the Company in the event of unexpected decreases in sales to PACCAR.

Seismic Safety Products, Inc.

Products. Seismic develops and markets natural gas shut-off valves that are
automatically activated by earthquakes. Cashmere manufactures the natural gas
shut-off valve using patented technology that Seismic purchased in November 1995
from the inventors after six years of development. Seismic's valves are designed
to be installed in new and existing natural gas lines and to automatically shut
off the supply of gas in an earthquake. The valve may also be used as a manual
natural gas shut-off valve to avert fires in other emergency situations.
Significant patented features of the valve include a mechanism for manual reset
of the shut-off valve without special tools and a seamless design to prevent
potential leakage. Seismic's natural gas shut-off valve is certified by the
American Gas Association and the State of California. The Seismic patents and
patent applications extend beyond the current product to cover other possible
products, such as an industrial version of the natural gas shut-off valve and an
electrical shut-off product currently under development.

Customers. Seismic began marketing its residential valve in December 1995
under the brand name "Northridge Valve(TM)". In March 1996, Seismic began
supplying the valve to several large home improvement centers; however, Seismic
has decided not to pursue this market sector for sales of its valves in the
future. Current purchasers of Seismic's valve include Ace Hardware Corporation,
Gensco, Inc., Northwest Water Heater and Western Supplies, with prospective
purchasers including builders, plumbers, security companies and utility
companies.

27
<PAGE>
Strategy. Unlike the other businesses acquired by the Company, there had
been no sales of the Seismic subsidiary's natural gas shut-off valve before the
Company acquired the technology for that product in November 1995. Since that
time, Seismic's strategy has been to sell its gas shut-off valve through a
variety of sources in earthquake-prone areas. The City of Los Angeles requires
that new construction have an automatic natural gas shut-off valve installed.
The Company believes that similar regulations may appear elsewhere on the West
Coast due to its relatively high potential for seismic activity.

This represents a different type of product and market for the Company.
There is no assurance that this product will achieve market acceptance, or that
the Company will be able to market the product successfully or to compete in
this new market. The Company is assessing whether it should substantially revise
its strategy with respect to Seismic. The Company is evaluating several
potential third-party marketing agreements and strategic partnership proposals
with regard to the marketing of Seismic's natural gas shut-off valve currently
marketed by Seismic. Under these proposals, Cashmere would retain the right to
manufacture the valve.

Proposed Acquisition of Olympic Tool & Engineering, Inc.

On August 26, 1997, the Company announced that it has signed a nonbinding
letter of intent to acquire all of the outstanding stock of Olympic Tool,
contingent upon the successful completion of the Company's due diligence and
certain other conditions. The Company is currently conducting its due diligence.
The transaction is valued at approximately $3.2 million in cash, notes and the
Company's Common Stock. Olympic Tool provides precision machined and fabricated
components primarily to the aerospace and nuclear industries and employs
approximately 70 people. Olympic Tool would join Cashmere, Morel and Seismic as
members of the Company's Aerospace Group. The proposed acquisition is subject to
satisfactory completion of the Company's due diligence investigations,
negotiation and execution of a definitive purchase agreement, and other closing
conditions.

Marketing

Electronics Group. Pacific Coast and Ceramic Devices market their products
in the United States, Europe and Japan through a network of approximately 22
manufacturer representatives and resellers as of May 31, 1997, generally
established on a geographic basis. These representatives and resellers are
subject to agreements that prevent them from selling the products of competitors
of Pacific Coast and Ceramic Devices. In addition, Pacific Coast and Ceramic
Devices maintain a joint internal sales and customer service staff and
engineering capability to meet customer requirements for technical support. NTI
currently markets its products through customer referrals and industry meetings
and trade shows. In the future, NTI intends to also participate in the joint
marketing efforts of Pacific Coast and Ceramic Devices to existing and potential
customers.

Aerospace Group. Cashmere and Morel have a similar existing and potential
customer base and use the same direct sales approach and personnel. They
currently have direct regional sales personnel covering the West Coast. The
Company expects to engage additional salespeople for other geographic regions as
business warrants. Seismic currently markets the natural gas shut-off valve in
California, Oregon, Utah, Washington and British Columbia, Canada. In addition,
the Company believes that there is a significant market for Seismic's valves in
other earthquake-prone areas, such as Japan. The Company is assessing whether it
should substantially revise its strategy with respect to Seismic. See "Aerospace
Group - Seismic Safety Products, Inc."

Competition

Electronics Group. The market for Pacific Coast and Ceramic Devices
products is highly competitive and is composed of numerous competitors, none of
which dominates the market. Competition is

28
<PAGE>
based primarily on product quality, price, custom product development
capability, and technical support. Pacific Coast's principal competitors include
Amphenol Corporation, Hermetic Seal Corporation, Kemlon Products and Development
Co., ITT Cannon Inc. and Alberox Corporation. Pacific Coast is not aware of any
competitor that competes with all of its product lines, although competitors do
exist in each market. Ceramic Devices' principal competitors in all of its
markets include AVX Corporation, Spectrum Control, Inc. and Maxwell
Laboratories, Inc.'s Sierra Capacitor/Filter Division. The market for NTI's
products is somewhat competitive and is composed of one domestic and three
foreign competitors. NTI's principal competitors in all of its markets include
OMC (U.S.), Nitro Neobel (Sweden), Northern Energetics (Scotland), and Asahi
(Japan). The Company believes that the products of the Electronics Group are
positioned to be competitive in these markets due to the quality of the
products, the proprietary and patented technologies, and their custom product
development capability.

Aerospace Group. The market for Cashmere and Morel products is very
competitive on a regional basis. The Company expects that access to Pacific
Coast's proprietary technology and customer base will provide Cashmere and Morel
with a competitive advantage in their industries. In addition, the Company
believes that modernization accomplished when Morel purchased its current
facilities in March 1994 enables Morel to produce its products more efficiently.
The Company believes that the ability to offer combined and complementary
products and value-added services with the Company's other subsidiaries will
enhance the ability of Cashmere and Morel to compete in this market. The market
for Seismic's natural gas shut-off valve includes several principal competitors,
such as Safe T Quake Corporation, Engdahl Enterprises and Pacific Seismic
Valves, Inc. The Company believes that its valve's rugged construction, ease of
installation, easy patented reset feature, and pricing should allow it to be
competitive in its market.

Suppliers and Production

Availability and Cost of Materials. The Company does not have fixed price
contracts or arrangements for all of the raw materials and other supplies it
purchases. The Company generally has readily available sources of raw materials
and other supplies required for the manufacture of its products and, where
possible, the Company maintains alternate sources of supply. However, shortages
of, and price increases for, certain raw materials and supplies used by the
Company have occurred in the past and may occur in the future. Future shortages
or price fluctuations could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
ability to manufacture and sell its products in a timely and cost effective
manner.

Electronics Group. Pacific Coast, Ceramic Devices and NTI have multiple
competitive sources generally available to supply all of their needs for raw,
processed and machined materials. However, these companies occasionally
experience delivery and quality difficulties with their vendors, and maintain
secondary sources of supply for outside purchases. Pacific Coast and Ceramic
Devices also maintain a quality control program to monitor supplier compliance
with their supply requirements.

Aerospace Group. Cashmere has a readily available source of supply for the
raw materials it requires through numerous product distributors. Morel has
several suppliers of aluminum for its casting process, including Aluminum
Company of America, Inc. (ALCOA), Morel's largest supplier, which has a supply
facility located within approximately 35 miles of Morel's facility. However,
delivery and quality of supplies may vary or change from time to time. In
addition, the price of aluminum fluctuates with the market, which is generally
absorbed by Cashmere but which Morel can generally pass through to its
customers. All of Seismic's products are supplied by Cashmere.

Proprietary Rights

The Company relies primarily on a combination of patent, trade secret,
copyright and trademark laws, confidentiality procedures, and other intellectual
property protection methods to protect its proprietary technology. The Company
has 33 U.S. patents, one U.S. patent application allowed, two U.S. patent

29
<PAGE>
applications pending, one Canadian patent application pending, and one European
patent application pending relating to certain of its technology and products.
The Company's issued patents will expire at various times over the next 18
years. Sixteen of the patents will expire over the next five years. See "Risk
Factors - Reliance on Proprietary Technology - Patent Issuance, Enforceability
and Expiration."

Environmental Matters

The Company is subject to the Environmental Laws. Proper waste disposal and
environmental regulation are major considerations for the Company because
certain metals and chemicals used in its manufacturing processes are classified
as hazardous substances. Since the Company's acquisition of Morel in December
1995, the Company has initiated an environmental compliance program for the
Morel facility, which includes obtaining all permits necessary for that facility
to operate in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws. As part of this
program, in January 1996, Morel obtained a temporary permit to discharge air
emissions, and in April, 1997, Morel obtained a permit to discharge waste water
and storm water, pending the state's further review. Since the Company's
acquisition of NTI in April 1997, the Company has initiated an assessment of
NTI's environmental conditions, including the possible need for permits to
discharge air emissions and storm water. See "Risk Factors - Environmental
Factors."

Employees

As of September 30, 1997, the Company and its subsidiaries had a total of
523 employees, of which approximately 520 were full-time employees. None of the
Company's employees is covered by an ongoing collective bargaining agreement,
although the Company has received notice from the Teamsters that it is
attempting to organize Morel's employees. The Company has experienced no work
stoppages and the Company believes that its relationship with its employees is
good.

Description of Property

All of the Company's current subsidiaries, except for NTI, are located in
the greater Wenatchee, Washington area. Pacific Coast, Ceramic Devices, Cashmere
and Seismic operate from adjacent buildings in Wenatchee. Morel is located 15
miles away in Entiat. The close proximity of these subsidiaries is part of the
Company's strategy to enhance the efficiencies between the companies in the
Electronics Group and Aerospace Group. In the opinion of the Company's
management, these properties are adequately covered by insurance.

Existing Properties

Wenatchee Facilities. Pacific Coast operates from facilities in Wenatchee,
Washington of approximately 31,000 square feet, which it has leased from the
Port of Chelan County since September 1994. Ceramic Devices completed its move
to Wenatchee from San Diego, California in May 1996. An additional 7,500 square
feet were added to the Pacific Coast lease in September 1995 to house Ceramic
Devices' operations. The lease was also amended in June 1997 to add another
11,400 square feet on which the Company has constructed an addition to the
Pacific Coast building. Cashmere operates from an adjacent facility of
approximately 42,000 square feet. This facility was built to suit Cashmere by
the Port of Chelan, and Cashmere has leased this facility from the Port of
Chelan County since October 1995. The leases for these facilities expire in the
year 2007 and both contain options to renew for two additional five-year terms.
Total lease costs for these facilities were $382,000 in fiscal 1997. See
"Financial Statements - Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 8 -
Long-Term Debt."

Morel Facilities. Morel operates from facilities in Entiat, Washington of
approximately 84,000 square feet. Morel purchased these facilities and relocated
from Seattle in August 1994, at which time the facilities were renovated into a
modern foundry operation. The title to these facilities is encumbered by a deed
of trust

30
<PAGE>
in favor of Seattle-First National Bank in the current principal amount of
$1,242,000. See "Financial Statements - Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements - Note 8 - Long Term Debt."

NTI Facilities. NTI operates from owned facilities located in Sequim,
Washington of approximately 18,355 square feet. NTI purchased these facilities
in April 1997 when it acquired its assets. The seller of the assets had owned
and operated its business in this location for approximately 20 years. NTI also
leases a former quarry near Sequim, in order to conduct some of its blasting
activities. See "Financial Statements Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- - Note 8 - Long Term Debt."

Cashmere Storage. Cashmere owns a portion of its previous facility of
approximately 46,000 square feet located in Cashmere, Washington. Although the
Company held this property for sale during a portion of fiscal 1996, it is
currently using the property for staging and storage, and is assessing its
long-term plans for the property, including the possibility of retaining the
property. The title to these facilities is encumbered by a deed of trust in
favor of Cashmere Valley Bank in the current principal amount of $157,000. See
"Financial Statements - Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 8 -
Long Term Debt."

Future Properties

Headquarters Building. The Company has recently purchased a parcel that is
adjacent to its Wenatchee facilities from the Port of Chelan, and has begun
construction of a corporate headquarters building on that property.

Seattle Area Administrative Office. The Company has entered into a lease
for approximately 21,390 square feet of office space located near Bothell,
Washington, for use as additional administrative offices. The leasehold
improvements are currently under construction and occupancy is projected for
December 1997. Initially, the Company intends to sublease approximately 75% of
the facility to the ITG Companies. See "Formation of Information Technology
Group."

Formation of Information Technology Group

In June 1997, the Company announced a plan to form an Information
Technology Group. In connection with that plan, the Company entered into
nonbinding letters of intent to acquire six companies to become part of the
Information Technology Group, contingent upon the successful completion of the
Company's due diligence and certain other conditions. The Company has already
determined after due diligence that it will not be acquiring Brigadoon or Market
Visibility, Inc., two of the companies that were under consideration. The
Company is currently conducting due diligence regarding its plan to form the
group and regarding the remaining ITG Companies. See "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and
Capital Resources - Pending Acquisitions - Formation of the Information
Technology Group". The proposed acquisition of each ITG Company is subject to
the satisfactory completion of the Company's due diligence investigations,
negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement with that company, and other
closing conditions.

Wright Employment Agreement

Recent Employment Agreement. Mr. Wright was employed by the Company during
fiscal 1997 pursuant to an Employment Agreement dated June 1, 1996 (the "Recent
Employment Agreement"). Under the Recent Employment Agreement, Mr. Wright
received an annual base salary of $160,000 for fiscal year 1997.

New Employment Agreement. The Recent Employment Agreement was superseded by
an Employment Agreement dated as of June 1, 1997 (the "New Employment
Agreement"). The New Employment Agreement has a term of five years, ending on
May 31, 2002, unless terminated earlier. Under the New Employment Agreement, Mr.
Wright will receive an annual base salary of $192,000 for fiscal year 1998, a
15% increase for each of fiscal years 1999 and 2000, and such increases as are
determined by the Board of Directors for fiscal years 2001 and 2002. The New
Employment Agreement prohibits Mr. Wright from competing with the Company for
two years following termination.

Option Grant. Pursuant to the Recent Employment Agreement, the Board of
Directors awarded Mr. Wright options to purchase up to 15,000 shares of Common
Stock at $2.875 per share for his performance during fiscal year 1997, all of
which are currently exercisable. Under the New Employment Agreement, Mr. Wright
will be entitled to an award of fully-vested options to purchase 25,000 shares
of Common Stock at the end of each fiscal year during the term of the New
Employment Agreement, and options to purchase up to another 250,000 shares per
year based on a specified formula, both at an exercise price equal to the fair
market value of the Common Stock as of the date the options are granted.

Severance Provisions. Under the New Employment Agreement, if a "change of
control" of the Company occurs and within six months thereafter Mr. Wright is
terminated without "cause" or terminates his employment for "good reason" (as
such terms are defined in the New Employment Agreement), Mr. Wright would be
entitled to receive a severance payment equal to twice his annual base salary
then in effect, subject to certain exceptions provided in the New Employment
Agreement. The term "change of control" includes the following events: (1) a
change in composition of the Board of Directors over any two-year period such
that

36
<PAGE>
the directors at the beginning of the period, together with directors
subsequently approved by the continuing directors, no longer constituted a
majority of the Board, (2) any person becoming the beneficial owner of
securities having 30% or more of the voting power of the Company's outstanding
voting securities, subject to certain exceptions in the New Employment
Agreement, or (3) a change of control of beneficial ownership of the Company's
voting securities that triggers reporting under Item 16(e) of Schedule 14A of
Regulation 14 under the Exchange Act. Any such severance payment under the New
Employment Agreement would be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid
subjecting the payment to penalty taxes on parachute payments. In addition to
such severance payment, Mr. Wright and his family would be entitled to continue
to participate for one year after such termination in employee health and
medical benefits plans and programs in which they were participants when
employment terminated, to the extent permitted by such plans and programs.

Benefit Plans

Registration of Underlying Shares. The Company has in effect with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") a Form S-8 Registration
Statement registering the 4,260,000 shares issuable under the Company's (a)
Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, (b) Independent Director
Stock Plan, (c) 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, and (d) three common stock
purchase warrants issued to Donald A. Wright, Nick A. Gerde, and an employee of
Pacific Coast, in connection with their employment. See "Summary Compensation -
Option Grants."

Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Option Plan. The Company's Amended and
Restated Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Option Plan") provides for the
award of incentive stock options ("ISOs") to key employees and the award of
non-qualified stock options ("NSOs"), stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), bonus
rights, and other incentive grants to employees and certain non-employees (other
than non-employee directors) who have important relationships with the Company
or its subsidiaries. As of October 20, 1997, options to purchase an aggregate of
1,263,616 shares of Common Stock had been granted under the Option Plan. See
"Description of Securities - Stock Options."

Administration. The Option Plan may be administered by the Board of
Directors or by a committee of directors or officers of the Company. The Board
of Directors has designated an Option Committee to administer the Option Plan.
The Option Committee determines and designates the individuals to whom awards
under the Option Plan should be made and the amount and terms and conditions of
the awards, except that if officers of the Company serve on the Option Committee
it may not grant options to such officers. The Option Committee may adopt and
amend rules relating to the administration of the Option Plan, but only the
Board of Directors may amend or terminate the Option Plan. The Option Plan is
administered in accordance with Rule 16b-3 adopted under the Exchange Act.

Eligibility. Awards under the Option Plan may be made to employees,
including employee directors, of the Company and its subsidiaries, and to
nonemployee agents, consultants, advisors, and other persons (but not including
nonemployee directors) that the Option Committee believes have made or will make
an important contribution to the Company or any subsidiary thereof.

Shares Available. Subject to adjustment as provided in the Option Plan, a
maximum of 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock are reserved for issuance
thereunder. The maximum number of shares with respect to which options may be
granted to any person during any fiscal year is 1,000,000. If an option, SAR or
performance unit granted under the Option Plan expires or is terminated or
canceled, the unissued shares subject to such option, SAR or performance unit
are again available under the Option Plan. In addition, if shares sold or
awarded as a bonus under the Option Plan are forfeited to the Company or
repurchased thereby, the number of shares forfeited or repurchased are again
available under the Option Plan.

Term. Unless earlier terminated by the Board, the Option Plan will continue
in effect until the earlier of: (1) ten years from the date on which the Option
Plan is adopted by the Board, and (2) the date on which

37
<PAGE>
all shares available for issuance under the Option Plan have been issued and all
restrictions on such shares have lapsed. The Board may suspend or terminate the
Option Plan at any time except with respect to options, performance units, and
shares subject to restrictions then outstanding under the Option Plan.

Stock Option Grants. The Option Committee may grant ISOs and NSOs under the
Option Plan. With respect to each option grant, the Option Committee determines
the number of shares subject to the option, the option price, the period of the
option, the time or times at which the option may be exercised (including
whether the option will be subject to any vesting requirements and whether there
will be any conditions precedent to exercise of the option), and the other terms
and conditions of the option.

ISOs are subject to special terms and conditions. The aggregate fair market
value, on the date of the grant, of the Common Stock for which an ISO is
exercisable for the first time by the optionee during any calendar year, may not
exceed $100,000. An ISO may not be granted to an employee who possesses more
than 10% of the total voting power of the Company's stock unless the option
price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to
the option on the date it is granted and the option is not exercisable five
years after the date of grant. No ISO may be exercisable after ten years from
the date of grant. The option price may not be less than 100% of the fair market
value of the Common Stock covered by the option at the date of grant.

In general, no vested option may be exercised unless at the time of such
exercise the optionee is employed by or in the service of the Company or any
subsidiary thereof, within 12 months following termination of employment by
reason of death or disability, or within three months following termination for
any other reason except for cause. Options are nonassignable and nontransferable
by the optionee except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution at the
time of the optionee's death. No shares may be issued pursuant to the exercise
of an option until full payment therefor has been made. Upon the exercise of an
option, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Option Plan will be
reduced by the number of shares issued upon exercise of the option.

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Option Committee may grant SARs under the
Option Plan. Each SAR entitles the holder, upon exercise, to receive from the
Company an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value on the date of
exercise of one share of Common Stock of the Company over its fair market value
on the date of grant (or, in the case of a SAR granted in connection with an
option, the excess of the fair market value of one share of Common Stock of the
Company over the option price per share under the option to which the SAR
relates), multiplied by the number of shares covered by the SAR or the option.
Payment by the Company upon exercise of a SAR may be made in Common Stock, in
cash, or by a combination of Common Stock and cash.

If a SAR is granted in connection with an option, the following rules shall
apply: (i) the SAR shall be exercisable only to the extent and on the same
conditions that the related option could be exercised; (ii) the SAR shall be
exercisable only when the fair market value of the stock exceeds the option
price of the related option; (iii) the SAR shall be for no more than 100% of the
excess of the fair market value of the stock at the time of exercise over the
option price; (iv) upon exercise of the SAR, the option or portion thereof to
which the SAR relates terminates; and (v) upon exercise of the option, the
related SAR or portion thereof terminates.

Each SAR is nonassignable and nontransferable by the holder except by will
or by the laws of descent and distribution at the time of the holder's death.
Upon the exercise of a SAR for shares, the number of shares reserved for
issuance under the Option Plan will be reduced by the number of shares issued.
Cash payments of SARs will not reduce the number of shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance under the Option Plan. No SARs have been granted under the
Option Plan.

Restricted Stock. The Option Committee may issue shares of Common Stock
under the Option Plan subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions
determined thereby. Upon the issuance of restricted stock,

38
<PAGE>
the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Option Plan shall be
reduced by the number of shares issued. No restricted shares have been granted
under the Option Plan.

Stock Bonus Awards. The Option Committee may award shares of Common Stock
as a stock bonus under the Option Plan. The Option Committee may determine the
recipients of the awards, the number of shares to be awarded, and the time of
the award. Stock received as a stock bonus is subject to the terms, conditions,
and restrictions determined by the Option Committee at the time the stock is
awarded. No stock bonus awards have been granted under the Option Plan.

Cash Bonus Rights. The Option Committee may grant cash bonus rights under
the Option Plan in connection with (1) options granted or previously granted,
(2) SARs granted or previously granted, (3) stock bonuses awarded or previously
awarded, and (4) shares issued under the Option Plan. Bonus rights granted in
connection with options entitle the optionee to a cash bonus if and when the
related option is exercised. The amount of the bonus is determined by
multiplying the excess of the total fair market value of the shares acquired
upon the exercise over the total option price for the shares by the applicable
bonus percentage. The bonus rights granted in connection with a SAR entitle the
holder to a cash bonus when the SAR is exercised. The amount of the bonus is
determined by multiplying the total fair market value of the shares or cash
received pursuant to the exercise of the SAR by the applicable percentage. The
bonus percentage applicable to any bonus right is determined by the Option
Committee but may in no event exceed 75%. Bonus rights granted in connection
with stock bonuses entitle the recipient to a cash bonus, in an amount
determined by the Option Committee, when the stock is awarded or purchased or
any restrictions to which the stock is subject lapse. No bonus rights have been
granted under the Option Plan.

Performance Units. The Option Committee may grant performance units
consisting of monetary units which may be earned if the Company achieves certain
goals established by the Committee over a designated period of time. The goals
established by the Option Committee may include earnings per share, return on
shareholders' equity, return on invested capital, and similar benchmarks.
Payment of an award earned may be in cash or in Common Stock or partly in both,
and may be made when earned, or vested and deferred, as the Option Committee
determines. Each performance unit will be nonassignable and nontransferable by
the holder except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution at the time
of the holder's death. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the
Option Plan shall be reduced by the number of shares issued upon payment of an
award. No performance units have been granted under the Option Plan.

Changes in Capital Structure. The Option Plan provides that if the
outstanding Common Stock of the Company is increased or decreased or changed
into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities
of the Company or of another corporation by reason of any recapitalization,
stock split or certain other transactions, appropriate adjustment will be made
by the Option Committee in the number and kind of shares available for grants
under the Option Plan. In addition, the Option Committee will make appropriate
adjustments in the number and kind of shares as to which outstanding options
will be exercisable. In the event of a merger, consolidation or other
fundamental corporate transformation, the Board may, in its sole discretion,
permit outstanding options to remain in effect in accordance with their terms;
to be converted into options to purchase stock in the surviving or acquiring
corporation in the transaction; or to be exercised, to the extent then
exercisable, during a 30-day period prior to the consummation of the
transaction.

Independent Director Stock Plan. The Company's Independent Director Stock
Plan (the "Director Plan") provides for the award of shares of Common Stock to
non-employee directors of the Company to attract, reward, and retain qualified
individuals to serve as directors and to provide added incentive to such persons
by increasing their ownership interest in the Company. At October 20, 1997,
31,953 shares had been issued to directors under the Director Plan, of which
4,950 will not vest until October 8, 1998, and 68,047 remain reserved but not
granted.

39
<PAGE>
Administration. The Director Plan may be administered by the Board of
Directors or by a committee of directors and officers of the Company. The Board
has delegated to the Compensation Committee the responsibility of administering
the Director Plan. Subject to the requirements of the Director Plan, the
Compensation Committee has the authority to, among other things, determine the
fair market value of the Common Stock, interpret the Director Plan and
prescribe, amend, and rescind rules and regulations relating thereto, and make
all determinations deemed necessary or advisable to administer the Director
Plan, except that only the Board of Directors may suspend, amend or terminate
the Director Plan. No director may vote on any action by the Board of Directors
with respect to any matter relating to an award held by such director. The
Director Plan is administered in accordance with Rule 16b-3 adopted under the
Exchange Act.

Eligibility. Shares may be awarded under the Director Plan only to
Independent Directors. The term "Independent Director" means a director who is
not an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

Shares Available. The total number of shares of Common Stock that available
to be awarded as bonuses under the Director Plan is 100,000 shares. If any share
awarded under the Director Plan is forfeited, such share will again be available
for purposes of the Director Plan.

Term. Unless earlier suspended or terminated by the Board, the Director
Plan will continue in effect until the earlier of: (1) ten years from the date
on which it is adopted by the Board, and (2) the date on which all shares
available for issuance under the Director Plan have been issued.

Initial Award. Each of the Independent Directors elected at and since the
shareholders' meeting at which the Director Plan was adopted received 500 shares
of Common Stock (the "Initial Award"). Any new Independent Director will receive
an Initial Award upon such Independent Director's first election or appointment
to the Board.

Annual Award. Each Independent Director is also awarded additional shares
on an annual basis (the "Annual Award"), in an amount determined in accordance
with the formula set forth below, each time that director is elected to the
Board (or, if directors are elected to serve terms longer than one year, as of
the date of each annual shareholders' meeting during that term). The number of
shares awarded in the Annual Award will be equivalent to the result of $5,000
divided by the fair market value of a share on the date of the award, rounded to
the nearest 100 shares (or a fraction thereof if the Independent Director is
elected or appointed to the Board at any time other than at the annual meeting
of shareholders).

Vesting and Forfeiture. Shares issued pursuant to an Initial Award are
fully vested upon the date of the award. Shares issued pursuant to an Annual
Award vest in full on the first anniversary following the date of the Annual
Award if the Independent Director has attended at least 75% of the regularly
scheduled meetings of the Board during that year (the "Vesting Period"). If an
Independent Director does not attend at least 75% of the regularly scheduled
meetings of the Board during the Vesting Period, the shares issued pursuant to
that Annual Award will expire and be forfeited without having vested. If a
Director ceases to be an Independent Director for any reason other than death or
disability before his or her last Annual Award vests, the shares issued pursuant
to that Annual Award will be forfeited. However, the Board of Directors may
waive or modify the vesting requirement prior to the first anniversary date of
any Annual Award by unanimous vote. If an Independent Director is unable to
continue his or her service as a director as a result of his or her disability
or death, unvested shares of such Independent Director will immediately become
vested as of the date of disability or death. In the event of a merger,
consolidation or plan of exchange to which the Company is a party and in which
the Company is not the survivor, or a sale of all or substantially all of the
Company's assets, any unvested shares will vest automatically upon the closing
of such transaction.

Status Before Vesting. Each Independent Director will be a shareholder of
record with respect to all shares awarded under the Director Plan, whether or
not vested. No Independent Director may transfer any interest in unvested shares
to any person other than to the Company.

40
<PAGE>
Employee Stock Purchase Plan. On October 8, 1997 the Company's shareholders
adopted the Company's 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Employee Stock
Plan"). The Employee Stock Plan enables eligible employees of the Company and
its subsidiaries to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock without
incurring broker commissions and with a possible discount from market price. As
of October 8, 1997, there were approximately 523 employees of the Company and
its subsidiaries eligible to participate in the Employee Stock Plan. See
"Eligibility." The Company currently anticipates that the first offering period
will begin September 1, 1998 and end on August 31, 1999. See "Offering Periods."

Shares Available. A maximum of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock are
reserved for issuance under the Employee Stock Plan, subject to certain
adjustments.

Administration. The Employee Stock Plan is administered by the Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee"). The Committee is
authorized to administer and interpret the Employee Stock Plan and to make such
rules and regulations as it deems necessary to administer the Employee Stock
Plan. The custodian of the Employee Stock Plan will be a financial firm
designated by the Committee. Plan participants may sell their shares through the
custodian (and pay the brokerage fee). Participants have rights as shareholders
in the shares that had been purchased on their behalf. The custodian votes
shares it holds per instructions from each employee. The custodian keeps records
and gives participants statements after each purchase date showing account
activity and balances as of the purchase date. The Company pays all expenses
relating to the Employee Stock Plan, except expenses related to the resale of
shares acquired by employees under the plan.

Eligibility. All individuals employed by the Company or its subsidiaries in
a position with regular hours of 20 hours or more per week for at least 90 days
in any particular calendar year, including the Company's officers (subject to
Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act and any statutory limitations), are eligible to
participate in the Employee Stock Plan. However, employees who would (whether
before or after exercising any rights under the Employee Stock Plan) own or be
deemed to own stock possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or
value of all classes of stock of the Company (including any stock that may be
purchased under any outstanding options) are not eligible to participate in the
Employee Stock Plan.

Term. The Employee Stock Plan will terminate on the earlier of: (1) August
31, 2008, or (2) the date on which all shares available for issuance under the
Employee Stock Plan have been sold pursuant to purchase rights exercised under
the Employee Stock Plan.

Offering Periods. The Employee Stock Plan provides for 12-month offering
periods, in which shares of Common Stock are purchased, using the funds
accumulated in each participant's account, on the last day of each 12-month
offering period, so long as the employee is employed by the Company on that
date. The Board of Directors or the Committee have the authority to change the
length or timing of the offering periods.

Contributions. Eligible employees who elect to participate in the Employee
Stock Plan may make contributions to their accounts, by payroll deductions, of a
minimum of $20 per bi-weekly pay period, up to 15% of their gross pay, for a
maximum of $25,000 per year. No cash deposits are permitted and no interest is
paid on amounts in participant's accounts. Participants may change their payroll
deductions only at the beginning of each offering period. Revocations of payroll
deduction authorization are effective immediately, however, no refund is
triggered in the case of a revocation. The amount in the employee's account at
the time of revocation is used to purchase stock on the purchase date. Amounts
remaining in accounts at the end of an offering period because of termination of
employment or if a statutory maximum would have been exceeded, are refunded to
the employee.

Purchase Price. Under the Employee Stock Plan, the purchase price per share
is equal to the lower of (1) 85% of the closing market price on the first
business day of each offering period; or (2) 100% of the closing market price on
the last business day of the offering period.

41
<PAGE>
Purchases. At the end of each offering period, the amounts in current
employees' accounts are used to buy the maximum full shares purchasable by such
amount. Amounts left in accounts at the end of an offering period because the
amount was insufficient to purchase a whole share are rolled over to the next
offering period.

Termination of Employment. Upon a participant's termination from employment
on or before the last business day of any offering period, the payroll
deductions credited to the participant's account will be returned to the
participant. No additional payroll deductions will be made following termination
from employment.

Tax Consequences. The Employee Stock Plan is intended to qualify as an
"employee stock purchase plan" within the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Under the Code, no taxable income
is recognized by the participant with respect to shares purchased under the
Employee Stock Plan either at the time of enrollment or at any purchase date at
the end of an offering period. Taxable income is recognized only when a
participant disposes of the shares.

If a participant disposes of shares purchased pursuant to the Employee
Stock Plan after the later of (a) two years from the enrollment date; or (b) one
year from the date on which the shares were purchased, the participant will
recognize ordinary compensation income equal to the lesser of (1) the excess of
the fair market value of the shares at the time of disposition over the purchase
price; or (2) 15% of the fair market value of the shares on the enrollment date.
Any gain on the disposition in excess of the amount treated as ordinary income
is treated as capital gains. The Company is not entitled to take a deduction for
the amount of the discount in the circumstances indicated above.

If the participant disposes of shares purchased pursuant to the Employee
Stock Plan before the expiration of the required holding period described above,
the participant will recognize ordinary income on the excess of the fair market
value of the stock on the purchase date over the purchase price. Any further
gain is taxed at capital gain rates. The Company is entitled to a deduction
equal to the amount the participant is required to report as ordinary
compensation income.

Certain Tax Considerations Related to Executive Compensation

As a result of Section 162(m) of the Code, in the event that compensation
paid by the Company to a "covered employee" (the chief executive officer and the
next four highest paid employees) in a year were to exceed an aggregate of
$1,000,000, the Company's deduction for such compensation could be limited to
$1,000,000.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Cashmere Property and Loan. As of May 1995, the Company reacquired a
portion of certain real property that it had sold to Jack Jones and John Eder in
exchange for a $975,207 promissory note, in connection with the Company's
acquisition of Cashmere. In the reacquistition, Cashmere canceled $673,990 of
the outstanding note from Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones agreed to assume the payment
obligation of Cashmere under certain bank debt related to the property, although
Cashmere remains an obligor under that bank debt, and Cashmere renewed the
$278,795 balance of the note from Mr. Jones under the same terms as the bank
debt. Although Mr. Jones has agreed to negotiate to refinance the bank debt in
his name and remove Cashmere as an obligor, the loan has not yet been
refinanced. Mr. Jones is a Principal Shareholder and was a director of the
Company at the time of the reacquisition. John M. Eder is currently President of
Seismic, is a former director of the Company and was Executive Vice President of
Cashmere at the time of the reacquisition.

Funding Agreement. In fiscal 1995, Original PCTH entered into a funding
agreement (the "Funding Agreement") with Lysys Ltd. ("Lysys"). Under the Funding
Agreement, Lysys has the right to nominate one of the Company's directors until
July 1998. Dr. Diebold was nominated by Lysys and was appointed as a director of
the Company by the Board of Directors on July 18, 1997, upon the resignation of
Lysys' previous nominee. Dr. Diebold is a general partner of Lysys.

Spring 1996 Placement Agreement. The Company entered into another agreement
with Lysys in fiscal 1996, as amended (the "Spring 1996 Placement Agreement"),
pursuant to which Lysys facilitated the sale by the Company of 838,470 shares of
Common Stock in an offering exempt from registration under Regulation S under
the Securities Act. The Company raised approximately $3.4 million from the
offering, from which Lysys was paid a commission of $234,772. Pursuant to the
Spring 1996 Placement Agreement, the Company issued 30,000 shares of Common
Stock to a designee of Lysys as additional compensation in connection with the
offering.

Dahl Loan. In fiscal 1996, Allen W. Dahl, a director of the Company, loaned
Morel $100,000 pursuant to the terms of a promissory note, for working capital
until consummation of the Company's acquisition of Morel. All amounts due under
this note were paid in full by Morel in December 1995.

Smith Loan and Warrant. In fiscal 1996, Robert L. Smith, then a director of
the Company, loaned the Company $150,000 pursuant to a promissory note from the
Company to Mr. Smith that accrued interest at 18% per annum and was due in full
on September 27, 1996. This loan, plus accrued interest and a loan fee that
together amounted to $15,000, was paid in full on August 9, 1996. The Company
also issued Mr. Smith a warrant to purchase 37,500 shares of Common Stock at
$4.80 per share that is now immediately exercisable. In addition, the warrant
grants Mr. Smith certain rights to register the shares issuable upon exercise of
the warrant. Mr. Smith waived his rights to register those shares in the July
1996 public offering and the Preferred Stock offering. The warrant is currently
held by Mr. Smith's estate.

Noyes Warrants. In June 1997, the Company issued non-public warrants to
purchase an aggregate of 125,000 shares of Common Stock to David A. Noyes &
Company, Gregory K. Smith (a former director of the Company), Nestor Wiegand and
Richard Cross, in connection with an agreement for the provision of financial
services by David A. Noyes & Company.

Jungle Street Transactions. In connection with the Company's plans to form
an Information Technology Group, the Company entered into a non-binding letter
of intent to acquire Jungle Street. The Company also entered into the Jungle
Street Operations Agreement under which it has advanced $2,551,500 to Jungle
Street and Televar under demand promissory notes secured by the assets of Jungle
Street and Televar. Roger Vallo and Donald Cotton, directors of the Company, are
directors and shareholders, and Mr.

48
<PAGE>
Vallo is Chief Executive Officer, of Jungle Street. Donald A. Wright, the
Company's Chief Executive Officer and President, and Nick A. Gerde, the
Company's Chief Financial Officer, Vice President Finance and Treasurer, are
shareholders of Jungle Street, and were directors of Jungle Street until June
1997. Mr. Gerde was Vice President of Televar Northwest, Inc. (Televar's
predecessor in interest) from July 1994 to February 1995. Allen Dahl, a director
of the Company, is also a shareholder of Jungle Street. Messrs. Vallo, Cotton,
Gerde, Wright, and Dahl have each personally guaranteed, or indemnified
guarantors of, certain obligations of Jungle Street or its subsidiary. As of
October 20, 1997, the Company owned approximately 4.9%of Jungle Street's
outstanding common stock.

Fall 1997 Placement Agreement. The Company entered into a placement
agreement with Lysys in October 1997 (the "Fall 1997 Placement Agreement"),
pursuant to which Lysys is conducting the Company's pending Fall 1997 Regulation
D offering, which has not yet closed. Lysys will be entitled to a commission of
5% of the offering proceeds in connection with that offering.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Common Stock

The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of
100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value per share. As of October 20,
1997, there were 11,415,105 shares of fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock
outstanding. Each share of outstanding Common Stock is entitled to participate
equally in dividends as and when declared by the Board of Directors of the
Company, out of funds legally available therefor, and is entitled to participate
equally in any distribution of net assets made to the Company's shareholders in
liquidation of the Company after payment to all creditors thereof. There are no
preemptive rights or rights to convert Common Stock into any other securities.
The holders of the Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of
record on all matters voted upon by the Company's shareholders and may not
cumulate votes for the election of directors. Thus, the owners of a majority of
the shares of the Common Stock outstanding may elect all of the directors of the
Company and the owners of the balance of the shares of the Common Stock would
not be able to elect any directors of the Company.

Preferred Stock

Authority. The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance
of 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.001 par value per share. The Company's
Board of Directors has the authority to issue shares of Preferred Stock in one
or more series, up to the maximum of 5,000,000 shares. The Board of Directors
also has the authority to fix the powers, designations, preferences and
relative, participating, optional or other rights of any series of preferred
stock, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption
terms, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms and the number of shares
constituting any series, without shareholder approval, unless such approval is
required by applicable law or by the rules of any stock exchange or automated
quotation system on which securities of the Company may be listed or traded.

Series A Preferred Stock. On February 28, 1997, 50,000 shares of the
Company's Series A Preferred Stock were sold to a limited number of
institutional investors under Rule 506. Effective as of June 11, 1997, the
Company registered up to 1,948,541 shares of Common Stock underlying the Series
A Preferred Stock on a Form S-3 Registration Statement. As of October 20, 1997,
39,415 shares of Series A Preferred Stock had been converted into 1,191,297
shares of Common Stock. If converted at $3.49 per share, the outstanding 10,585
shares of Series A Preferred Stock would convert into 303,295 shares of Common
Stock.

Conversion. Upon conversion of a share of Series A Preferred Stock, the
holder receives a number of shares of registered Common Stock equal to $100
divided by the "conversion price" of the Series A Preferred Stock. The
conversion price is the lower of (a) $3.49 or (b) 85% of the average closing bid
price per share of the Common Stock over the five trading days before
conversion. The Company must redeem any Series A Preferred Stock that it is not
permitted to convert under the terms of the Statement of Rights and Preferences
for the Series A Preferred Stock.

Possible Effects of Issuance. The issuance of Preferred Stock in certain
circumstances may have the effect of diluting or limiting the present voting or
other rights of holders of Common Stock, delaying, deferring or preventing a
change of control of the Company, or discouraging bids for the Common Stock at a
premium over the market price of the Common Stock.

Warrants

Publicly-Traded Warrants. Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one
share of Common Stock at the Warrant Exercise Price of $4.6875 per share. The
Warrants were issued in registered form under

50
<PAGE>
a Warrant Agreement (the "Warrant Agreement") between the Company and Interwest
Transfer Co., Inc., as warrant agent (the "Warrant Agent").

Exercise. The Warrants will, subject to certain conditions, be exercisable
at any time until July 15, 2001, unless earlier redeemed. A Warrant may be
exercised upon surrender of the Warrant certificate on or before the expiration
date of the Warrant at the offices of the Warrant Agent, with the form of
"Election To Purchase" on the reverse side of the Warrant certificate completed
and executed as indicated, accompanied by payment of the exercise price (by
certified or bank check payable to the order of the Company or wire transfer of
good funds) for the number of shares with respect to which the Warrant is being
exercised. The Company will not be required to honor the exercise of Warrants
if, in the opinion of the Company's Board of Directors upon advice of counsel,
the sale of securities upon exercise would be unlawful. The shares of Common
Stock underlying the Warrants, when issued upon exercise of a Warrant, will be
fully paid and nonassessable, and the Company will pay any transfer tax incurred
as a result of the issuance of Common Stock to the holder upon its exercise.

Redemption. Outstanding Warrants are redeemable by the Company, at $.25 per
Warrant, upon at least 30 days prior written notice to the registered holders,
if the closing bid price (as defined in the Warrant Agreement) per share of
Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date
notice of redemption is given equals or exceeds 200% of the then-current Warrant
Exercise Price. If the Company gives notice of its intention to redeem, a holder
would be forced either to exercise his or her Warrant before the date specified
in the redemption notice or accept the redemption price.

Registration. For a holder to exercise the Warrants, there must be a
current registration statement in effect with the Commission and qualification
in effect under applicable state securities laws (or applicable exemptions from
state qualification requirements) with respect to the issuance of shares or
other securities underlying the Warrants. The Company has agreed to use all
commercially reasonable efforts to keep a current registration statement
effective in anticipation of and prior to the exercise of the Warrants and to
take such other actions under the laws of various states as may be required to
cause the sale of Common Stock (or other securities) issuable upon exercise of
Warrants to be lawful. If a current registration statement is not in effect at
the time a Warrant is exercised, the Company may at its option redeem the
Warrant by paying to the holder cash equal to the difference between the market
price of the Common Stock on the exercise date and the exercise price of the
Warrant.

Underwriters' Warrants. The Company authorized the issuance of the
Underwriters' Warrants in connection with the Company's July 1996 public
offering and reserved 450,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance upon exercise
of such warrants (including the Common Stock underlying the Warrants issuable
upon exercise of the Underwriters' Warrants). The Underwriters' Warrants entitle
the holders to acquire an aggregate of 225,000 units, each comprised of one
share of Common Stock and one Warrant, at an exercise price of $3.75 per unit.
The Underwriters' Warrants are currently exercisable and will remain exercisable
until July 15, 2001. The Warrants and shares of Common Stock underlying the
Underwriters' Warrants were registered for issuance and resale under the
Post-Effective Amendment of which this Prospectus is a part. See "Selling
Shareholders."

UTCO Warrant. In May 1996, the Company issued to UTCO Associates, Ltd., a
Selling Shareholder, a warrant to purchase 300,000 shares of Common Stock in
connection with its provision of short-term financing to the Company. The UTCO
Warrant is currently exercisable in full at an exercise price of $4.80 per share
and expires May 22, 2001. The shares of Common Stock underlying the UTCO Warrant
were registered for issuance and resale under the Registration Statement of
which this Prospectus is a part. See "Selling Shareholders."

Other Warrants. The Company has outstanding other warrants to purchase a
total of 322,500 shares of Common Stock, as set forth on the following charts
(the "Other Warrants"). Of this amount, 160,000 shares

51
<PAGE>
have been registered by the Company under a Form S-8 registration statement. See
"Selling Shareholders" and "Executive Compensation - Benefit Plans -
Registration of Underlying Shares." The Other Warrants for the remaining 162,500
shares contain registration rights provisions.

Certain Provisions. The above discussion of certain terms and provisions of
the Warrants, the UTCO Warrant and the Other Warrants is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of the applicable warrant
agreements and certificates, each of which has been filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. Each of the Warrants,
the UTCO Warrant and Other Warrants are subject to provisions that protect the
holders against dilution by adjustment of the number of shares that may be
purchased by the holders. Such adjustment will occur in the event, among others,
that the Company makes certain distributions to holders of its Common Stock. The
Company is not required to issue fractional shares upon the exercise of the
Warrants, the UTCO Warrant and the Other Warrants. No holder of the Warrants,
the UTCO Warrant or the Other Warrants will possess any rights as a shareholder
under such warrants of the Company until such holder exercises such warrant.

Effect of Warrant Issuance. For the life of the Warrants, the UTCO Warrant
and the Other Warrants, the holders have the opportunity to profit from a rise
in the market price of the Common Stock without assuming the risk of ownership
of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of those warrants. The
holders of those warrants may be expected to exercise their warrants at a time
when the Company would, in all likelihood, be able to obtain any needed capital
by an offering of Common Stock on

52
<PAGE>
terms more favorable than those provided for by those warrants. Further, the
terms on which the Company could obtain additional capital during the life of
those warrants may be adversely affected.

Warrant Commitment. On August 5, 1997, the Company entered into an
agreement with Dominick & Dominick Incorporated ("Dominick") for financial
advisory services. In that agreement, the Company agreed to issued to Dominick a
warrant to purchase 375,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to the occurrence of
certain conditions, including approval of the Company's Board of Directors. The
parties are in the process of negotiating the specific terms of that warrant
before submitting it to the Board of Directors for approval. Once issued, that
warrant will contain certain registration rights.

Stock Options

At October 20, 1997, the Company had stock options outstanding under its
Option Plan to purchase up to 1,263,616 shares of Common Stock at exercise
prices of between $2.11 and $5.125 per share. Of these, options to purchase up
to 1,190,446 shares are currently exercisable and will expire between November
2005 and November 2006. The remainder of the options vest, if at all, in
increments of 24,390 shares on each of June 1, 1998, 1999 and 2000, and expire
in November 2005. The Company has registered the 3,000,000 shares reserved under
its Option Plan on a Form S-8 Registration Statement. See "Management - Benefit
Plans."

Convertible Notes

Offering. In August 1997, the Company closed an offering of $5,800,000 of
Convertible Notes to a small group of accredited investors, in a transaction
exempt from registration under Rule 506. The maximum number of shares issuable
upon conversion of the Convertible Notes is 2,172,690 shares of Common Stock if
converted at $4.75 per share. No conversions have occurred at this time.

Conversion. A holder may convert a Convertible Note to Common Stock in
increments of $10,000. Upon such conversion, the holder receives a number of
shares of Common Stock equal to the amount of the Convertible Note being
converted divided by the conversion price. The conversion price is the lower of
(a) $4.75 or (b) the average closing bid price per share of the Common Stock
over the 40 trading days before conversion.

Registration. In connection with the Convertible Note offering, the Company
agreed to file the shares of Common Stock underlying the Convertible Notes on a
Form S-3 registration statement within 90 days after closing. The Company
intends to file that registration statement in mid-November 1997.

Use of Proceeds. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Convertible
Note offering primarily in connection with acquisitions. The Company will
receive no cash as the result of the registration, the conversion of the
Convertible Notes to Common Stock, or any subsequent resale of that Common Stock
after conversion.

Registration Rights

Warrants held by Selling Shareholders. The Company has filed this
Registration Statement in connection with its obligation to register resale of
(a) the Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the
Underwriters' Warrants, and (b) shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
the UTCO Warrant. See "Selling Shareholders".

Other Registration Rights. The holders of non-public warrants to purchase
162,500 shares of Common Stock (collectively, the "Registrable Shares"), or
their transferees, are entitled to certain rights with respect to the
registration of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act. Under the terms
of agreements

53
<PAGE>
between the Company and such holders, if the Company proposes to register any of
its Common Stock under the Securities Act in a public offering, either for its
own account or for the account of others, such holders are, with limited
exceptions, entitled to notice and to include their Registrable Shares in the
registration. These rights are subject to certain conditions, including the
right of the underwriters of any offering by the Company to limit the number of
Registrable Shares included in such registration. The Company has agreed to
register the Registrable Shares on the Form S-3 Registration Statement being
filed in connection with the Fall 1997 Registration D Offering.

Certain Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following discussion sets forth certain U.S. federal income tax
consequences, under current law, relating to the purchase and ownership of the
Common Stock and Warrants. The discussion is a summary and does not purport to
deal with all aspects of federal taxation that may be applicable to an investor,
nor does it consider specific facts and circumstances that may be relevant to a
particular investor's tax position. Certain holders (such as dealers in
securities, insurance companies, tax exempt organizations, and those holding
Common Stock or Warrants as part of a straddle or hedge transaction) may be
subject to special rules that are not addressed in this discussion. This
discussion is based on current provisions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, and on administrative and judicial interpretations as of the
date hereof, all of which are subject to change retroactively and prospectively.
ALL INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE SPECIFIC TAX
CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THIS OFFERING, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY OF FEDERAL,
STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX LAWS.

U.S. Holders of Common Stock or Warrants. The following discussion concerns
the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and
disposition of Common Stock or Warrants applicable to a U.S. Holder of such
Common Stock or Warrants. In general, a "U.S. Holder" is (i) a citizen or
resident of the U.S., (ii) a corporation or partnership created or organized in
the U.S. or under the laws of the U.S. or any state, or (iii) an estate or trust
whose income is includable in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes
regardless of its source.

Dividends. Dividends, if any, paid to a U.S. Holder generally will be
includable in the gross income of such U.S. Holder as ordinary income to the
extent of such U.S. Holder's share of the Company's current or accumulated
earnings and profits. See "Price Range of Securities and Dividend Policy."

Sale of Common Stock. The sale of Common Stock should generally result in
the recognition of gain or loss to a U.S. Holder thereof in an amount equal to
the difference between the amount realized and such U.S. Holder's tax basis in
the Common Stock. If the Common Stock constitutes a capital asset in the hands
of a U.S. Holder, any gain upon the sale of the Common Stock will be taxed at
capital gain rates, depending on the period for which the U.S. Holder has held
the Common Stock, and any loss upon such sale will be treated as a capital
loss..

Exercise and Sale of Warrants. No gain or loss will be recognized by a U.S.
Holder of a Warrant on the purchase of shares of Common Stock for cash pursuant
to an exercise of a Warrant (except that gain will be recognized to the extent
cash is received in lieu of fractional shares). The tax basis of Common Stock
received upon the exercise of a Warrant will equal the sum of the U.S. Holder's
tax basis for the exercised Warrant and the exercise price. The holding period
of the Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of the Warrant will begin on the
date the Warrant is exercised and the Common Stock is purchased (i.e., it does
not include the period during which the Warrant was held).

Gain or loss from the sale or other disposition of a Warrant (or loss in
the event that the Warrant expires unexercised as discussed below), other than
pursuant to a redemption by the Company, will be capital gain or loss to its
U.S. Holder if the Common Stock to which the Warrant relates would have been a
capital

54
<PAGE>
asset in the hands of such holder. Any capital gain will be taxed at capital
gain rates, depending on the period for which the U.S. Holder has held the
Warrant at the time of sale. It is unclear whether the redemption of a Warrant
by the Company would generate ordinary or capital income or loss.

Expiration of Warrants Without Exercise. If a holder of a Warrant allows it
to expire without exercise, the expiration will be treated as a sale or exchange
of the Warrant on the expiration date. The U.S. Holder will have a taxable loss
equal to the amount of such U.S. Holder's tax basis in the lapsed Warrant. If
the Warrant constitutes a capital asset in the hands of the U.S. Holder, such
taxable loss will be characterized as capital loss.

Backup Withholding. A shareholder who is a U.S. Holder may be subject to
backup withholding at the rate of 31% in connection with distributions received
with respect to his or her shares, unless the shareholder (i) is a corporation
or comes within certain other exempt categories and, when required, demonstrates
this fact or (ii) provides a correct taxpayer identification number, certifies
as to no loss of exemption for backup withholding and otherwise complies with
applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. Any amount paid as
backup withholding will be creditable against such shareholder's income tax
liability. The Company will report to the shareholders and the I.R.S. the amount
of any "reportable payments" distributed and the amount of tax withheld, if any,
with respect to the shares.

Non-U.S. Holders of Common Stock or Warrants. The following discussion
concerns the material U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of the
ownership and disposition of shares of Common Stock or Warrants applicable to
Non-U.S. Holders of such shares of Common Stock or Warrants. In general, a
"Non-U.S. Holder" is any holder other than a U.S. Holder, as defined in the
preceding section.

Dividends. Dividends, if any, paid to a Non-U.S. Holder generally will be
subject to U.S. withholding tax at a 30% rate (or a lower rate as may be
prescribed by an applicable tax treaty) unless the dividends are effectively
connected with a trade or business of the Non-U.S. Holder within the United
States. See "Price Range of Securities and Dividend Policy." Dividends
effectively connected with such a trade or business will generally not be
subject to withholding (if the Non-U.S. Holder properly files an executed IRS
Form 4224 with the payor of the dividend) and generally will be subject to
federal income tax on a net income basis at regular graduated rates.

In the case of a Non-U.S. Holder which is a corporation, such effectively
connected income also may be subject to the branch profits tax (which is
generally imposed on a foreign corporation on the repatriation from the U.S. of
effectively connected earnings and profits). The branch profits tax may not
apply if the recipient is a qualified resident of certain countries with which
the U.S. has an income tax treaty. To determine the applicability of a tax
treaty providing for a lower rate of withholding, dividends paid to an address
in a foreign country are presumed, under the current I.R.S. position, to be paid
to a resident of that country, unless the payor had definite knowledge that such
presumption is not warranted or an applicable tax treaty (or U.S. Treasury
Regulations thereunder) requires some other method for determining a Non-U.S.
Holder's treaty status. Under recently finalized United States Treasury
Regulations, effective as of January 1, 1999, a Non-U.S. Holder will be required
to file certain forms accompanied by a statement from a competent authority of
the treaty country in order to claim the benefits of a tax treaty.

The Company must report annually to the I.R.S. and to each Non-U.S. Holder
the amount of dividends paid to, and the tax withheld with respect to, each
Non-U.S. Holder. These reporting requirements apply regardless of whether
withholding was reduced or eliminated by an applicable tax treaty. Copies of
these information returns also may be made available under the provisions of a
specific treaty or agreement to the tax authorities in the country in which the
Non-U.S. Holder resides.

Sale of Common Stock. Generally, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to
federal income tax on any gain realized upon the disposition of such holder's
shares of Common Stock unless (i) the gain is

55
<PAGE>
effectively connected with a trade or business carried on by the Non-U.S. Holder
within the U.S. (in which case the branch profits tax may apply); (ii) the
Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who holds the shares of Common Stock as a
capital asset and is present in the U.S. for 183 days or more in the taxable
year of the disposition and to whom such gain is U.S. source; (iii) the Non-U.S.
Holder is subject to tax pursuant to the provisions of U.S. tax law applicable
to certain former U.S. citizens or residents; or (iv) the Company is or has been
a "U.S. real property holding corporation" for federal income tax purposes
(which the Company does not believe that it is or is likely to become) at any
time during the five-year period ending on the date of disposition (or such
shorter period that such shares were held) and, subject to certain exceptions,
the Non-U.S.Holder held, directly or indirectly, more than 5% of the Common
Stock.

Exercise and Sale of Warrants. Generally, a Non-U.S. Holder who recognizes
capital gain from the sale of a Warrant, other than pursuant to a redemption by
the Company, will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax unless (i) the gain
is effectively connected with a trade or business carried on by the Non-U.S.
Holder within the United States (in which case the branch profits tax may
apply); (ii) the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the U.S. for
183 days or more in the taxable year of sale and to whom the gain is U.S.
source; (iii) the Non-U.S. Holder is subject to tax pursuant to the provisions
of U.S. law applicable to certain former U.S. citizens or residents; or (iv) the
Company is or has been a "U.S. real property holding corporation" for federal
income tax purposes (which the Company does not believe it is or is likely to
become) at any time during the five-year period ending on the date of sale (or
such shorter period such Warrants were held) and, subject to certain exceptions,
the Non-U.S. Holder held, directly or indirectly more than 5% of the Warrants.

Estate Tax. Shares of Common Stock and Warrants owned or treated as owned
by an individual who is not a citizen or resident (as specially defined for U.S.
federal estate tax purposes) of the U.S. at the time of death will be includable
in the individual's gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax purposes, unless an
applicable tax treaty provides otherwise, and may be subject to U.S. federal
estate tax.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting. Under current U.S. federal
income tax law, backup withholding tax (which generally is a withholding tax
imposed at the rate of 31% on certain payments to persons that fail to furnish
certain required information) and information reporting apply to payments of
dividends (actual and constructive) made to certain non-corporate U.S. persons.
The backup withholding tax and information reporting requirements applicable to
U.S. persons will generally not apply to dividends paid on Common Stock to a
Non-U.S. Holder at an address outside the U.S., although dividends paid to
Non-U.S. Holders will be reported and taxed as described above under
"Dividends."

The payment of the proceeds from the disposition of shares of Common Stock
or Warrants through the U.S. office of a broker will be subject to information
reporting and backup withholding unless the holder, under penalties of perjury,
certifies, among other things, its status as a Non-U.S. Holder or otherwise
establishes an exemption. Generally, the payment of the proceeds from the
disposition of shares of Common Stock or Warrants to or through a non-U.S.
office of a broker will not be subject to backup withholding and will not be
subject to information reporting. In the case of the payment of proceeds from
the disposition of shares of Common Stock or Warrants through a non-U.S. office
of a broker that is a U.S. person or a "U.S.-related person," existing
regulations require information reporting (but not backup withholding) on the
payment unless the broker receives a statement from the owner, signed under
penalties of perjury, certifying, among other things, its status as a non-U.S.
Holder or the broker has documentary evidence in its files that the owner is a
Non-U.S. Holder and the broker has no actual knowledge to the contrary. For this
purpose, a "U.S.-related person" is (i) a "controlled foreign corporation" for
U.S. federal income tax purposes or (ii) a foreign person 50% or more of whose
gross income from all sources for the three-year period ending with the close of
its taxable year preceding the payment (or for such part of the period that the
broker has been in existence) is derived from activities that are effectively
connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business.

56
<PAGE>
Any amounts withheld from a payment to a Non-U.S. Holder under the backup
withholding rules will be allowed as a credit against such holder's U.S. federal
income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the
required information is furnished to the I.R.S. Non-U.S. Holders should consult
their tax advisors regarding the application of these rules to their particular
situations, the availability of an exemption therefrom and the procedure for
obtaining such an exemption, if available.

The United States Treasury has recently finalized regulations regarding the
withholding and information reporting rules discussed above. In general, these
regulations do not alter the substantive withholding and information reporting
requirements but unify current certification procedures and forms and clarify
reliance standards. These regulations are effective for payments made after
December 31, 1998, subject to certain transition rules.

Anti-Takeover Laws

The Company, as a Washington corporation, is subject to certain provisions
of Washington law regarding significant business transactions and certain "fair
price restrictions." These provisions may have the effect of delaying or
deterring a hostile takeover of the Company.

Washington's "Significant Business Transactions Statute" (Chapter 23B.19 of
the Washington Business Corporation Act) applies to public companies that are
incorporated under Washington law. The statute prohibits, subject to certain
exceptions, a corporation from entering into any "significant business
transactions" with an "Acquiring Person" (defined generally as a person who or
an affiliated group that beneficially owns 10% or more of the outstanding voting
securities of a corporation) for a period of five years after such person or
affiliated group becomes an Acquiring Person unless the transaction or share
acquisition made by the Acquiring Person is approved prior to the share
acquisition by a majority of the target corporation's directors. In addition,
this statute prohibits a corporation subject thereto from entering into a
significant business transaction with an Acquiring Person unless the
consideration to be received by the corporation's shareholders in connection
with the proposed transaction satisfies the "fair price" provisions set forth in
the statute.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The Transfer Agent and Registrar for the Company's securities is Interwest
Transfer Co., Inc.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Board of Directors
Pacific Aerospace & Electronics, Inc. and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Pacific Aerospace
& Electronics, Inc. (formerly PCT Holdings, Inc.) and Subsidiaries (the Company)
as of May 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then
ended. 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 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, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pacific Aerospace &
Electronics, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of May 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results
of their operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MAY 31, 1997 AND 1996

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Operations and principles of consolidation - Pacific Aerospace &
Electronics, Inc. (formerly PCT Holdings, Inc.), located in Wenatchee,
Washington, develops, manufactures, markets and sells a broad range of precision
electronic components, designed to operate with a high degree of reliability in
harsh environments, and machine or cast metal products for applications in the
aerospace, defense, telecommunications, energy, transportation, medical and
general electronics industries. The consolidated financial statements of Pacific
Aerospace & Electronics, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) include the
accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
transactions have been eliminated.

The Company's customers are located throughout the United States and
Europe. Included in accounts receivable at May 31, 1997 are $795,000, on 1997
sales of $8.0 million, and $489,000, on 1997 sales of $7.7 million, which are
due from The Boeing Company and PACCAR, respectively. Included in accounts
receivable at May 31, 1996 are $250,000, on 1996 sales of $5.9 million, and
$569,000, on 1996 sales of $3.1 million, which are due from The Boeing Company
and PACCAR, respectively.

(b) Cash and cash equivalents - The Company considers all highly-liquid
investments purchased with original maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit
quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits.

(d) Depreciation - Property and equipment is depreciated for financial
reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the assets. For federal income tax purposes, accelerated methods are
used over statutory lives.

(e) Patents - Purchased patents are recorded at cost. Developed patents are
recorded at the value of related compensation awarded. Patents are amortized on
the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the patents of 11 to
17 years.

(f) Federal income tax - Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized
for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases
of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. The Company and its
Subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.

(g) Per share information - Earnings (Loss) per share of common stock is
based upon the weighted average number of common stock and dilutive common stock
equivalents outstanding using the treasury stock method. Stock options and
warrants and convertible preferred stock are considered common stock
equivalents. The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 9,989,000 and
6,209,000 during the years ended May 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

(h) Fair value of financial instruments - The estimated fair value amounts
have been determined by the Company, using available market information and
appropriate valuation methodologies. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts
receivable, other noncurrent assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and
notes

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

MAY 31, 1997 AND 1996

payable at May 31, 1997 and 1996, and long-term debt at May 31, 1997, are a
reasonable estimate of their fair value. The carrying value of long-term debt at
May 31, 1996 of $6,099,000 differs from the estimated fair value of $5,999,000.
The estimated fair values may not be representative of actual values of the
financial instruments that could have been realized as of the year end or that
will be realized in the future.

(i) Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

(j) Revenue recognition - Revenue is recognized when products are shipped
to customers.

(k) Reclassifications - Certain 1996 amounts have been reclassified to
conform with the 1997 presentation.

(l) New Accounting Standards - In February 1997, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 128. The new standard replaces primary and fully diluted earnings per share
with basic and diluted earnings per share. SFAS No. 128 is required to be
adopted by the Company in the year ending May 31, 1998. Had the Company been
required to adopt SFAS No. 128 for the periods presented, the adoption would not
have impacted diluted or primary earnings per share.

In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130 and 131. SFAS No. 130
establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
components. SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for reporting about operating
segments, products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The
standards becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
Management plans to adopt these standards in the year ending May 31, 1998.
Management believes that provisions of SFAS No. 130 and 131 will not have a
material effect on its financial condition or reported results of operation.

NOTE 2 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

In November 1995, the Company acquired all of the assets of Seismic Safety
Products, Inc. (Seismic). The asset purchase price consisted of $70,000 in cash
and 128,750 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $483,000, for a total
of $553,000. In connection with the transaction, the Company acquired certain
patents for a total consideration of $520,000. Costs in excess of net book value
of $535,000 were recorded as a result of this acquisition.

Effective for accounting purposes on November 30, 1995, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company merged with Morel Industries, Inc. (Morel). The
purchase price consisted of 650,000 shares of the Company's common stock valued
at approximately $2.6 million. Costs in excess of net book value of $939,000
were recorded as a result of this acquisition.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

MAY 31, 1997 AND 1996

On April 30, 1997, the Company, acquired all of the assets of Northwest
Technical Industries, Inc. (NTI). The asset purchase price consisted of 477,540
shares of the Company's common stock valued at $1,552,000. Costs in excess of
net book value of $270,000 were recorded as a result of this acquisition.

The business combinations described above have been accounted for using the
purchase method. Accordingly, assets and liabilities have been reflected at fair
value. The operating results of these acquired companies are included in the
consolidated statements of operations from their respective acquisition dates.
Any costs in excess of net book value as a result of these transactions are
being amortized over 15 years. The Company assesses the recoverability of this
intangible asset on a regular basis by determining whether the amortization of
the balance over its remaining life can be recovered through projected
undiscounted future cash flows.

The following summary, prepared on a pro forma basis, combines the
consolidated condensed results of operations as if Morel, Seismic and NTI had
been acquired as of the beginning of the year ended May 31, 1996. There are no
material adjustments which impact the summary.

facility up to $2,000,000, and a term loan for the lessor of $600,000 or 80% of
the cost of certain building improvements. Borrowings will bear interests at
variable rates, and will be secured by inventory, accounts receivable, and
certain equipment and building improvements. The agreement contains restrictive
covenants related to working capital, net worth and debt service coverage.

Long-term debt matures for fiscal years ending May 31 as follows: $997,000
for 1998; $744,000 for 1999; $787,000 for 2000; $534,000 for 2001; $445,000 for
2002; and the balance of $726,000 in years thereafter.

NOTE 9 - LEASING ARRANGEMENTS

The Company leases the manufacturing facilities in which Pacific Coast,
Cashmere, Ceramic Devices, and Seismic are located through November 2005 from
the Port of Chelan County. Rent payments through September 2000 are based on a
percentage of the base rent, resulting in a deferred rent liability. Rental
expense is recorded ratably over the term of the lease. Beginning in October
1998, the base rent is subject to annual adjustments for increases in the
Consumer Price Index.

The Company has several vehicle and equipment leases with minimum monthly
lease payments in the aggregate of approximately $3,000. The lease terms range
from three to six years.

Total rental expense was $475,000 and $516,000 for the years ended May 31,
1997 and 1996, respectively.

Minimum lease payments under these leases for fiscal years ending May 31
are as follows: $377,000 for 1998; $386,000 for 1999; $357,000 for 2000;
$339,000 for 2001; $326,000 for 2002; and $1,131,000 in years thereafter.

NOTE 10 - FEDERAL INCOME TAX

The current federal income tax provision of $50,000 in 1997, represents the
tax on alternative minimum taxable income. The deferred federal income tax
benefit of $67,000 in 1996 represents the expected utilization of net operating
loss (NOL) carryforwards available to offset deferred tax liabilities. Loss
carryforwards generated by the Company prior to certain acquisitions may,
subject to certain limitations, reduce tax liabilities on future earnings, or in
part, reduce remaining deferred tax liabilities by reduction of the costs in
excess of net book value of acquired assets in the Morel acquisition (Note 2).

The Company has NOL carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of
approximately $7,079,000, the benefits of which expire in the tax year 2001
through the tax year 2011. The Company also has AMT credits of $50,000 available
for carryforward with no expiration date, which may be used to offset future
regular tax liabilities. The NOLs created by the Company's subsidiaries prior to
their acquisition and the NOLs created as a consolidated group or groups
subsequent to a qualifying tax free merger or acquisition, have limitations
related to the amount of usage by each subsidiary or consolidated group as
described in the Internal Revenue Code. As a result of these limitations,
approximately $800,000 of the $7,079,000 of NOLs will never become available.

Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities
are as follows:

SFAS No. 109 requires the Company to record a valuation allowance when it
is "more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized." Management believes that some of the excess of NOL
carryforwards over temporary differences may be utilized in future periods.
However, due to the uncertainty of future federal taxable income, a valuation
allowance for the full amount of the net deferred tax asset has been recorded at
May 31, 1997 and 1996. Due to limitations on the availability of certain of the
NOLs referred to above, deferred tax liabilities associated with fixed assets
acquired in the Morel merger have not been fully offset.

MAY 31, 1997 AND 1996

NOTE 11 - COMPENSATION PLANS AND COMMITMENTS

Long-term investment and incentive plan - The Company has a long-term stock
investment and incentive plan (the Option Plan) under which directors, officers,
key employees, and other key individuals may be awarded stock options, stock
appreciation rights, stock bonuses, and cash bonuses. Under the plan, the option
exercise price is generally no less than fair-market value at the date of grant.
Options expire no later than ten years from the grant date.

SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," allows companies
to record compensation cost for stock-based compensation plans at fair value or
provide pro forma disclosures. The Company has chosen to continue to account for
stock based compensation using the method whereby compensation cost for stock
options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the
Company's common stock at the date of grant over the exercise price of the
option.

If the estimated fair value of the options at the grant dates had been
recognized as compensation expense over the vesting periods of the options, the
Company's pro forma net income in the year ended May 31, 1997 would have been
approximately $342,000, or $0.03 per share, and the pro forma net loss in the
year ended May 31, 1996 would have been approximately $(1,079,000), or $(0.17)
per share. Recognition of compensation expense for options granted would create
a deferred tax asset of $483,000 and $27,000 at May 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. However, no benefit for the deferred tax assets has been included
in the pro forma net income (loss) for 1997 and 1996, as a valuation allowance
would be recognized for the full amount of the deferred tax asset, consistent
with other deferred tax assets (Note 10). The fair value of the options granted
during 1997 and 1996 is estimated as $1,298,000 and $247,000, respectively, on
the date of grant using the Black-Scholes, option-pricing model with the
following assumptions: dividend none, expected volatility of 38.06%, risk-free
interest rate of 6.49%, and expected life of 7 years.

for service on the Company's board of directors. In 1997 and 1996, 14,400 and
9,000 shares of the Company's common stock, respectively, were issued under the
plan. Included in compensation expense is $44,000 and $24,000 in 1997 and 1996,
respectively, resulting from the shares issued.

Retirement plan - The Company maintains a 401(k) plan covering all eligible
employees who meet service requirements as provided in the plan. Company
contributions to the profit sharing plan are determined annually by the Board of

NOTE 12 - CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

In February 1997, the Company sold 50,000 shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock through a private placement for $5,000,000, incurred related
offering costs of $519,000, with net proceeds of $4,481,000. Conversion
provisions include conversion any time after June 12, 1997; conversion to common
shares equal to $100 divided by the lower of $3.49 or 85% of the average closing
common per share bid price over the 5 days before conversion; and total shares
converted cannot exceed 20% of total common shares outstanding or approximately
1,950,000 shares. If converted on May 31, 1997, 1,920,000 shares of common stock
would be issued.

NOTE 13 - COMMON STOCK

During the fiscal year ended May 31, 1996, the Company sold 1,429,470
shares of its common stock at an average of $3.43 per share, in an offering
exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (Regulation S). The Company incurred approximately $375,000 of costs
related to the offering, which were charged against the proceeds of the offering
in 1996. At May 31, 1996, the Company had stock subscriptions receivable of

MANAGEMENT'S STATEMENT AND NOTES TO
UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AUGUST 31, 1997

Management's Statement
- ----------------------

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with Form 10-QSB instructions and, in the opinion of management,
contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary
to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position as of August 31,
1997, and May 31, 1997, the consolidated results of operations for the
three-month periods ended August 31, 1997 and 1996, and the consolidated
statements of cash flow for the three-month periods ended August 31, 1997 and
1996. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the
consolidation process. These results have been determined on the basis of
generally accepted accounting principles and practices applied consistently with
those used in the preparation of the Company's annual and quarterly reports
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited
financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. The financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for
the years ended May 31, 1997 and 1996.

The results of operations for the three-month periods ended August 31, 1997 and
1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected or anticipated
for the full fiscal year. Also, certain reclassifications have been made to the
August 31, 1996 statement of income and statement of cash flow to conform to the
1997 presentations.

Item 24. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Article 8 of the Company's Articles of Incorporation authorizes the Company
to indemnify its directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Washington
Business Corporation Act through the adoption of Bylaws, approval of agreements,
or by any other manner approved by the Board of Directors.

In accordance with such authorization, Section 10 of the Company's Bylaws
("Bylaws") requires indemnification, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, of any person who is or has served as a director or officer of
the Company, as well as any person who, while serving as a director or officer
of the Company, served at the request of the Company as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another entity, against expenses reasonably incurred
because such person was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether formal or
informal, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative.

Notwithstanding these indemnification obligations, Section 10 of the Bylaws
states that no indemnification will be provided (a) to the extent that such
indemnification would be prohibited by the Washington Business Corporations Act
or other applicable law as then in effect, or (b) except with respect to
proceedings seeking to enforce rights to indemnification, to any director or
officer seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding initiated by
such person unless such proceeding was authorized by the Board of Directors.

Section 10 of the Bylaws also provides that expenses incurred in defending
any proceeding in advance of its final disposition shall be advanced by the
Company to the director or officer upon receipt of an undertaking by or on
behalf of such person to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that
such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company, except where the
Board of Directors adopts a resolution expressly disapproving such advancement.

Section 10 of the Bylaws also authorizes the Board to indemnify and advance
expenses to employees and agents of the Company on the same terms and with the
same scope and effect as the provisions thereof with respect to the
indemnification and advancement of expenses to directors and officers.

Item 28. Undertakings.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 24, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

1. To file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

(i) include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;

(ii) reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually
or together, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in
the registration statement; and
<PAGE>
(iii) include any additional or changed material information on the
plan of distribution.

2. That, for determining liability under the Securities Act, it will treat
each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities
offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona
fide offering.

3. To file a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of
the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.

4. That, for determining any liability under the Securities Act, it will
treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h)
under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time
it was declared effective.

5. That, for determining any liability under the Securities Act, it will
treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new
registration statement for the securities offered therein, and the offering of
the securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering thereof.
