to sell certain assets and liabilities of the Company's oil analysis subsidiary,
United  Testing Group,  Inc.  ("UTG").  The sale was  consummated on October 30,
1996.  The net income of UTG for the three  months  ended  December 31, 1996 and
1995 is included in the consolidated statement of operations under "discontinued
operations."  Revenues from such  operations for the three months ended December
31, 1996 and 1995 were $0 and $1,148,852, respectively, and were not included in
service revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

         Total  revenue for the three month period  ended  December 31, 1996 was
$3,224,112,  compared to  $3,432,827  for the same period in 1995.  The $208,715
decrease in revenues  for the  three-month  period  ended  December  31, 1996 is
primarily  attributable  to a decrease  in product  sales at the  Company's  Top
Source Automotive,  Inc.  subsidiary ("TSA") for the three months ended December
31,  1996  compared  to the same  period in 1995  partially  offset by a nominal
increase in service  revenues  from  On-Site  Analyzers  ("OSA's") at Top Source
Instruments,  Inc. ("TSI"), formerly named OSA, Inc., for the three month period
ended December 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995.

         The  decrease  in  product  sales  at TSA for the  three  months  ended
December  31,  1996  compared to the same  period in 1995 is  attributable  to a
slowdown in overhead  speaker  system  ("OHSS")  sales  resulting from a planned
vehicle  modification of the Chrysler Jeep(R) Cherokee.  The Company anticipates
that sales of OHSS will return to or exceed  historic  sales  levels  during the
second fiscal quarter ending March 31, 1997.

         During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company  generated nominal
revenue of $26,575  from five  leased OSA units,  compared to revenue of $44,001
for all of fiscal 1996. On February 7, 1997, TSI recorded revenue of $160,000 on
a sale to  Hyundai  Motors,  Inc.  in Korea of an OSA unit  intended  for use in
internal powertrain testing.

         On  January  10,  1997,  the  Company  signed a letter  agreement  with
Cleveland  Technical Center ("CTC"),  a division of Conam Inspection,  Inc. (the
purchaser  of the UTG assets - see  Discontinued  Operations)  a  subsidiary  of
Staveley  Industries,  plc. from the United  Kingdom,  to jointly market OSAs in
North  America.  Under the  terms of this  agreement,  TSI and CTC will  jointly
establish pilot  mini-laboratories for the purpose of determining the value of a
North American master franchise.  The Company believes it will sign a definitive
franchise  agreement  with Conam or other  parties that will yield  multiple OSA
sales.

         Based on the  continuing  reliability  demonstrated  by OSA units,  and
current sales and marketing  initiatives  in progress,  the Company  anticipates
generating an increasing quarterly revenue stream from OSA units, although there
can be no assurances.

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

         The gross profit  margin for three  months ended  December 31, 1996 was
30.7%  compared  to 39.0% for the same period in 1995.  The  decrease in margins
below comparable levels in the prior year is primarily  attributable to a change
in product mix at TSA due to the start up of the Jeep(R) Wrangler.  Gross margin
for OHSS for the three  quarters in fiscal 1996  subsequent to December 31, 1995
was 31.7%.

         General and administrative expenses increased 23.5% for the three-month
period  ended  December  31, 1996  compared  to the same  period in 1995.  These
increases are  attributable to increased  personnel and higher levels of expense
at TSA and TSI, partially offset by a decrease in corporate  personnel costs for
the comparable period.

         Depreciation  and  amortization  increased  18.7%  for the  three-month
period ended December 31, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. The increase
is  primarily  due to  purchases  of $767,703 in capital  assets  which  consist
primarily of additional OSA units and capital  equipment  expenditures at TSA in
the three months  ended  December 31, 1996.  Depreciation  and  amortization  of
$80,602 was  allocated  to cost of sales as it directly  relates to the products
and services  sold during the three months ended  December 31, 1996  compared to
$83,438 for the same period ended in 1995.

         The increase in net loss for the three  months ended  December 31, 1996
compared to the same period in 1995 is primarily  attributable  to reduced sales
at TSA,  increased  general and  administrative  expenses and a profit reduction
from discontinued operations.  The Company anticipates a significant improvement
in  operating  results for the second  quarter  ending March 31, 1997 due to the
return of TSA revenues to historic sales levels and increasing OSA sales at TSI.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Net cash used in operating activities was $168,221 for the three months
ended  December 31,  1996.  This use of cash was  attributable  to a decrease in
accounts  receivable  of  $1,818,516  offset by an  increase in  inventories  of
$673,061, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $737,921 and
a net operating loss excluding depreciation and amortization of $466,160.

         Net cash provided by investing  activities was $2,961,153.  This source
of cash was  attributable to the change in net assets of UTG of $3,373,910 which
was offset by $767,703  expended  for capital  assets,  $361,056  related to the
reimbursement  of tooling  costs and $6,110 for patent  costs.  Net cash used in
financing  activities was $1,143,116  which consisted of net proceeds from sales
of common stock through exercise of stock options of $2,813, which was offset by
the  repurchase of 345,000  shares of the  Company's  common stock at an average
purchase price of $3.25 per share.

         The  Company  has bank  financing  with First  Union  National  Bank of
Florida,  ("Bank").  The Company's  current credit  facility is $3,750,000  with
$1,500,000 being available for short term working  capital,  ("Credit Line") and
$2,250,000  ("OSA Line") to be used  exclusively  for the  purchase of OSAs.  At
September  30, 1996 and December  31, 1996,  the Company had not met the minimum
debt service coverage on the OSA Line, and, therefore,  was unable to access the
line. Under the terms of the credit facility, on December 31, 1996, the OSA Line
principal  balance  availability  was reduced from  $4,500,000 to $2,250,000 and
will remain at that level until the  expiration  of the facility on December 31,
1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources  (Continued)

         On January 31, 1997, First Union National Bank ("The Bank") renewed the
Company's  Credit Line until April 30, 1997 pending the completion of its annual
due diligence.  The Company anticipates  renewing its Credit Line under existing
terms until January 31, 1998 or beyond with its current lender or other lenders,
prior to the  expiration  of the Credit Line on April 30, 1997.  The Credit Line
has not been utilized since fiscal 1995 and currently no amounts are outstanding
on the Line..

         Based on current cash balances, the Credit Line, and increasing TSA and
TSI sales,  the Company  believes it has  sufficient  cash flow and liquidity to
fund its current operations and anticipated increasing OSA commercialization.


Forward-Looking Statements

         The  statements   discussed  above  under  Results  of  Operations  and
Liquidity and Capital Resources  relating to the Company's  expectations that it
anticipates (1) generating increasing revenue from OSAs and receiving additional
purchase orders for OSA units, (2) signing a definitive franchise agreement, (3)
the return of TSA  revenue  to  historic  levels,  and (4)  improvements  in the
Company's operating results and liquidity are forward-looking  statements within
the meaning of Section 27A of the  Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

         As the text above  discusses,  the  results  expected  by any or all of
these  forward-looking  statements may not occur.  Important  factors that could
cause actual results to differ  materially from the  forward-looking  statements
include the following:  (1) the decline in current production levels at Chrysler
for  vehicles  installing  OHSS,  (2)  the  continued  reliability  of  the  OSA
technology over an extended period of time, (3) the Company's  ability to market
OSAs in  various  markets,  (4) the  acceptance  of the  OSA  technology  by the
marketplace,  (5) the general  tendency of large  corporations  to slowly change
from known technology to emerging new technology,  (6) the Company's reliance on
a third party to manufacture  OSAs, (7) potential future  competition from third
parties that may develop  proprietary  technology  which either does not violate
the  Company's  proprietary  rights or is claimed not to violate  the  Company's
proprietary rights, and (8) unanticipated  business or legal disagreements which
impacts the signing of a definitive franchise agreement.
