                         INDUSTRIAL IMAGING CORPORATION
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     The financial  statements of Industrial Imaging Corporation (the "Company")
included  herein have been prepared  pursuant to the rules of the Securities and
Exchange  Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB and do not include all
of the  information  and footnote  disclosures  required by  generally  accepted
accounting  principles.  These statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial  statements  and notes  thereto  for the year  ended  March  31,  1998
included  in the  Company's  Form  10-KSB  and  Form  10-KSB/A  filed  with  the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

     The financial  statements  and notes herein are  unaudited,  except for the
balance sheet as of March 31, 1998,  but in the opinion of  management,  include
all the adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary
to present fairly the financial  position,  results of operations and cash flows
of the Company.

     The results of operations for the reported 1998 period are not  necessarily
indicative of the results to be achieved for any future period or for the entire
year ended March 31, 1999.

2.  EARNINGS PER SHARE CALCULATION
     In the last  quarter of fiscal  1998,  the  Company  adopted  SFAS No. 128,
Earnings  per Share  ("EPS").  Basic EPS is  calculated  by dividing  net income
(loss)  by the  weighted-average  number of common  shares  outstanding  for the
period. Diluted EPS is calculated the same as basic except, if not antidilutive,
stock  options are included  using the treasury  stock method to the extent that
the average share trading price exceeds the exercise  price. As of September 30,
1998 and 1997,  assumed exercise of options and warrants are not included in the
calculation  of  diluted  EPS  since  the  effect  would  be  antidilutive.  The
implementation  of this  standard  did not have an effect  on EPS in the  period
ended September 30, 1997 and, therefore, did not require restatement.  Basic and
diluted EPS were equal for the three months and six months ended  September  30,
1998 and 1997;  therefore,  no  reconciliation  between basic and diluted EPS is
required.

3.  INVENTORY
     Inventory is stated at the lower of cost  (first-in,  first-out)  or market
and consists of the following:

4.  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
     On  April  1,  1998,   the  Company   adopted  SFAS  No.  130,   "Reporting
Comprehensive  Income", which requires companies to report all changes in equity
during  a  period,   except  those  resulting  from  investment  by  owners  and
distribution  to owners,  in a financial  statement for the period in which they
are  recognized  ("  Comprehensive   Income").  The  Company  has  no  items  of
Comprehensive  Income  requiring   disclosure  in  the  accompanying   financial
statements for all periods presented.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

     Industrial Imaging  Corporation (the "Company")  designs,  manufactures and
markets automated optical,  vision and industrial imaging systems for inspection
and  identification  of defects in PCBs and laser  plotters  for creation of PCB
artwork  and  phototools.  The  Company  operates  under the  trade  name of AOI
International,   Inc.  and  has   manufacturing   operations  based  in  Lowell,
Massachusetts with customers located in the United States, Europe and Asia.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     COMPARISON OF THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1997

     Revenues for the three months ended  September  30, 1998  ("Interim  1999")
were  $1,496,011  compared to $906,999 for the three months ended  September 30,
1997  ("Interim  1998").  Product  revenues  increased by 74.4% to $1,404,800 in
Interim 1999 from  $805,493 for Interim 1998 due primarily to an increase in the
number of units sold.  Service  revenues  decreased  slightly  from $101,506 for
Interim  1998  to  $91,211  for  Interim  1999.  Historically  the  Company  has
experienced  significant quarterly  fluctuations in operating results due to the
relatively small number of high priced sales in any quarter.  Management expects
these fluctuations to continue.

     Cost of revenues for Interim 1999 was  $1,139,065  compared to $962,677 for
Interim 1998.  Primarily as a result of the increased  revenues covering certain
fixed cost, gross profit as a percent of net revenues for Interim 1999 increased
to 23.9% ($356,946) from a gross loss of 6.1% ($55,678) for Interim 1998.

     Engineering  expenses for Interim 1999 of $169,872  increased from $109,750
for Interim  1998.  The  increase of $60,122  (54.8%) was due  primarily  to the
increase in staffing and related costs.

     Sales and  marketing  expenses  increased to $316,756 for Interim 1999 from
$124,058 for Interim 1998.  The increase of $192,698  (155.3%) was due primarily
to increased  commissions on the higher revenues and an increase in staffing and
related expenses.

    General and  administrative  expenses decreased to $173,090 for Interim 1999
from  $245,252  for  Interim  1998.  The  decrease  of $72,162  (29.4%)  was due
primarily to decreases in professional fees and amortization.

     Interest expense (net) was $46,954 for Interim 1999 compared to $50,880 for
Interim  1998.  This  was due to the  decreased  use of  factoring  of  accounts
receivable  during  Interim 1999 as compared to Interim  1998.  Other income was
$694 for Interim 1999 (comprised of favorable currency translations) compared to
other  expense of $12,378 for Interim 1998 made up of state tax expenses  offset
by favorable currency translations.

     Due to the  uncertainty of realizing the tax benefits of net operating loss
carryforwards,  no provision for income tax benefit was made for either  Interim
1999 or Interim 1998.

     Primarily as a result of the increased revenues,  the net loss decreased to
$349,032 for Interim  1999,  as compared to the net loss of $597,996 for Interim
1998.

COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1997

     Net revenues for the six months ended  September 30, 1998 were  $2,633,542,
as compared  to  $1,613,770  for the same period in 1997,  an increase of 63.2%.
Product revenues increased by 72.8% to $2,431,460 for the six month period ended
September 30, 1998 from  $1,407,178 for the same period in 1997 due primarily to
the increase in the number of units sold.  Service revenues  decreased  slightly
from  $206,592  for the first six months of fiscal 1998 to $202,082 for the same
six months in fiscal 1999.

     Cost of  revenues  for the first six months of fiscal  1999 was  $2,000,636
compared to $1,666,754 for the same period in fiscal 1998. Primarily as a result
of the  increased  revenues  covering  certain  fixed  costs,  gross profit as a
percent of net revenues for six months ended September 30, 1998 increased to 24%
($632,906) from a gross loss of 3.3% ($52,984) for the same period in 1997.

     Engineering  expenses  for the first six months of fiscal  1999 of $412,516
increased  from  $223,199  for the same period in fiscal  1998.  The increase of
$189,317 (84.8%) was due primarily to the expanding of the engineering staff and
related costs, and additional development costs of the AOI-2500 systems.

     Sales and marketing expenses increased to $517,363 for the six months ended
September  30, 1998 from  $220,314 for the first six months of fiscal 1998.  The
increase of $297,049 (134.8%) was due primarily to increased  commissions on the
greater sales volume and increases in staffing and related expenses.

    General and administrative  expenses decreased to $400,023 for the first six
months of fiscal  1999 from  $455,047  for the same period in fiscal  1998.  The
decrease of $55,024 (12.1%) was due primarily to decreases in professional  fees
and amortization.

     Interest  expense (net) was $73,341 for the six months ended  September 30,
1998 compared to $98,866 for the same six month period in 1997.  This was due to
the  decreased  use of factoring of accounts  receivable  during  fiscal 1999 as
compared  to fiscal  1998.  Other  income was $3,144 for the first six months of
fiscal 1999  (comprised of favorable  currency  translations)  compared to other
expense of $5,220  for  fiscal  1998,  made up of state tax  expenses  offset by
favorable currency translations.

     Due to the  uncertainty of realizing the tax benefits of net operating loss
carryforwards,  no  provision  for income tax benefit was made for either of the
six month periods ended September 30, 1999 or 1998.

     Primarily as a result of the  increased  revenues and the  resulting  gross
profit  offset by  certain  increased  expenses,  the net loss for the first six
months of fiscal  1999  decreased  to  $767,193,  as compared to the net loss of
$1,055,630 for the same period in fiscal 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company has incurred  operating  losses since  inception that continued
through September 30, 1998. In addition, the financial statements of the Company
for Fiscal 1998 were prepared on the  assumption  that the Company will continue
as a going concern and do not include any  adjustments  that would result if the
Company  would  cease  as  a  going  concern.  The  report  of  the  independent
accountants  contains an  explanatory  paragraph as to the Company's  ability to
continue as a going concern.  Among the factors cited by the auditors as raising
substantial  doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is
that the Company  has  suffered  recurring  losses  from  operations,  has a net
working capital  deficiency and had an accumulated  deficit of $11,166,916 as of
September 30, 1998. The Company's  operations to date have been funded by equity
investments,  borrowing  from banks,  investors and  stockholders,  factoring of
accounts  receivable,  and to a limited extent,  cash flow from  operations.  In
addition,  the  Company  raised  $3  million  of new  equity in  November  1997.
Management  believes that the Company needs to obtain additional working capital
to  address  its  operational  needs  and to fund  the  Company's  objective  of
agressively  pursuing  market  penetration.  In  view of the  Company's  current
financial  condition,  the Company plans to continue to aggressively  manage its
working capital and expenses while pursuing product sales  opportunities as well
as  strategic  or other  business  relationships.  In  addition,  the Company is
currently seeking bank financing as well as additional equity investments. There
can be no assurance that the Company can attract additional capital at favorable
rates,  if at all.  In the event  the  Company  is  unable  to raise  additional
capital,  it may be required  to take  additional  steps  which could  include a
merger or sale of the Company, or seeking protection under bankruptcy laws.

     At  September  30,  1998,  the Company  had cash of $55,480,  and a working
capital  deficit of $390,927.  During the six months ended  September  30, 1998,
cash used in  operating  activities  was  $579,307.  The Company  entered into a
sale/leaseback transaction during the first six months of fiscal 1999 to finance
a demonstation system to aid in the pursuit of sales opportunities.  The Company
currently has no outstanding material commitments for capital expenditures.

The Company derives most of its annual  revenues from a relatively  small number
of sales of products,  systems and upgrades,  with product  prices  ranging from
$185,000 to $600,000 per system.  As a result,  accounts  receivable will likely
continue to fluctuate based on the number of systems sold in each period and the
timing of the individual  sales within each period.  Moreover,  any delay in the
recognition of revenue for single  products or a delay in shipment to customers,
systems  or  upgrades  would  have a material  adverse  effect on the  Company's
results of operations for a given accounting  period.  In addition,  some of the
Company's net sales have been realized near the end of a quarter. Accordingly, a
delay in a customer's  acceptance  or in a shipment  scheduled to occur near the
end of a particular  quarter  could  materially  adversely  affect the Company's
results  of  operations  for  that  quarter.  The  accounts  receivable  balance
increased  from $214,450 at March 31, 1998, to $1,027,777 at September 30, 1998,
due to the  increased  sales of  systems  during  the first six months of fiscal
1999.

Accounts  payable  increased  from  $599,785 at March 31, 1998 to  $1,177,661 at
September  30,  1998,  primarily  due to an  increase  in the aging of  accounts
payable.  Deferred  revenue  decreased by $116,427 as a result of decreased down
payments from customers.

YEAR 2000 DISCLOSURE

         The  Company  has  considered  the  potential  problems  that may arise
because  of the year 2000 as it relates to the  Company's  internal  information
systems.  It is the Company's  opinion that,  having considered the systems that
the  Company  presently  utilizes,  the year 2000  should not  present  material
problems  with respect to its own internal  information  systems.  To date,  the
Company is unaware of any  situations  of  noncompliance  that would  materially
adversely  affect  its  operations  or  financial  condition.  There  can  be no
assurance,  however, that instances of noncompliance which could have a material
adverse  effect on the Company's  operations or financial  condition will not be
identified; that the systems of other companies with which the Company transacts
business will be corrected on a timely basis; or that a failure by such entities
to correct a Year 2000 problem or a correction  which is  incompatible  with the
Company's  information  systems would not have a material  adverse effect on the
Company's operations or financial condition.
