                  TAPISTRON INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                 April 30, 1996

                                   (Unaudited)


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

In  the  opinion  of  the  Tapistron   International,   Inc.  ("Tapistron")  and
Fabrication  Center, Inc. ("FCI"), a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Tapistron,  the
accompanying  unaudited  consolidated condensed financial statements contain all
adjustments  (consisting of only normal recurring  adjustments,  except as noted
elsewhere  in the  notes to the  consolidated  condensed  financial  statements)
necessary to present fairly its financial  position as of April 30, 1996 and the
results of its operations for the three and nine months ended April 30, 1996 and
1995,  and cash flows for the nine months  ended April 30, 1996 and 1995.  These
statements are condensed and therefore do not include all of the information and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial  statements.  The statements  should be read in  conjunction  with the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 1995.  The results of operations
for the  three  and  nine  months  ended  April  30,  1996  are not  necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per common share is computed  based on the weighted  average  number of
common shares and, when dilutive,  common  equivalent  shares (stock options and
warrants) outstanding during each of the periods.

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

As shown in the  accompanying  financial  statements,  the Company has  incurred
recurring  losses from  operations and, as a result,  has experienced  cash flow
problems.  These factors raise  substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue  as a going  concern.  The  Company's  ability to  continue  as a going
concern is dependent  first on its ability to raise  additional  capital to meet
its immediate  working  capital  requirements  and  ultimately on its ability to
obtain profitable operating results.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended April 30, 1995 And 1996
- - ------------------------------------------

Revenues for the three months ended April 30, 1996 ("1996  Three  Months") were
$265,979 as compared to $67,201 for the three months ended April 30, 1995 ("1995
Three Months"), an increase of 95.8%.

Cost of sales as a percentage of sales  decreased  from 90.9% for the 1995 Three
Months to 27.9% for the 1996 Three Months.

Operating   expenses  consist  of  administrative   expenses  and  research  and
development expenses.  Administrative expenses decreased to $590,756 in the 1996
Three Months from $1,016,310 in the 1995 Three Months,  a 41.9%  decrease.  Over
the past nine months, the Company has evaluated and made reductions in all areas
of administrative expenses.

Research and development  expenses decreased to $34,574 in the 1996 Three Months
from $489,726 in the 1995 Three Months, a 92.9% decrease. This decrease reflects
the Company's  halting of the research and development on the new generation CYP
machine. The Company plans to market the existing CYP machine vigorously.

Interest  expense  increased  to $115,790 for the 1996 Three Months from $55,424
for the 1995 Three Months.  Interest income  increased to $6,757 during the 1996
Three Months from $1,522 during the 1995 Three Months.

Nine Months Ended April 30, 1995 And 1996
- - -----------------------------------------

Revenues  for the nine months  ended April 30,  1996 ("1996 Nine  Months")  were
$559,846  as  compared to  $1,839,694  for the nine months  ended April 30, 1995
("1995 Nine Months"), a decrease of 69.6%.

Cost of sales as a percentage  of sales  decreased  from 68.9% for the 1995 Nine
Months to 42.5% for the 1996 Nine Months.

Operating   expenses  consist  of  administrative   expenses  and  research  and
development  expenses.  Administrative  expenses  decreased to $1,304,658 in the
1996 Nine Months from $2,563,049 in the 1995 Nine Months, a 49.1% decrease. Over
the past nine months, the Company has evaluated and made reductions in all areas
of  administrative  expenses.  Research and  development  expenses  decreased to
$54,951 in the 1996 Nine Months from $2,391,648 in the 1995 Nine Months, a 97.7%
decrease. These expenses decreased with the completion of the development effort
of the enhanced model of the CYP machine.

Interest  expense  increased to $253,626 for the 1996 Nine Months from  $174,902
for the 1995 Nine Months.  Interest income  increased to $19,930 during the 1996
Nine Months from $16,870 during the 1995 Nine Months.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of April 30, 1996, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately
$(2,128,000),  a $1,220,980  decrease in working capital from July 31, 1995. The
Company anticipates that additional financing will be necessary in order to meet
projected working capital requirements over the next 12 months.
