ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

GENERAL

         Industrial Technologies, Inc. ("Industrial Technologies" or the
"Company") develops sensing, monitoring, processing and inspection technologies
that operate under the demanding factory floor conditions encountered in a range
of industries. Its customers include web process manufacturers of paper,
plastic, film, photosensitive materials, steel, aluminum, glass, non-wovens and
rubber products and their subsequent converting operations. The Company's
industrial computer group offers a full line of industrial strength processors,
displays and peripherals designed to operate under harsh temperature, humidity
and shock conditions found in factory environments. The Company's industrial
computers are also integrated into every inspection system delivered by the
Company. The Company's innovative solutions help industrial firms to increase
yields, improve product reliability and diminish costs associated with defects,
thereby allowing such firms to become more competitive in world markets.

         Industrial Technologies, Inc., incorporated in 1976, is the
consolidation of Aerodyne Products Corporation ("APC"), and three other business
components: the Amdex Industrial Computer Division ("Amdex"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary, Intec Corp. ("Intec") and a subsidiary of Intec, Intec Europe, Ltd.
("Europe"). APC changed its name to Industrial Technologies, Inc. in February
1994 to achieve better name recognition for its core business. The Amdex
Division, Intec, and Europe are sometimes collectively included in the term "the
Company" where the context requires.

         The Company had an initial public offering in 1991, and some of the
proceeds were used to acquire operations to support and compliment the Company's
technological base. The assets acquired from Amdex Corporation, late in 1991,
which have become the Amdex Division of the Company, are used both in the
Company's inspection systems and in its independent product line.

         In May of 1992, the Company acquired Intec Corp., a supplier of laser
and camera based inspection systems which was consolidated with the Company's
automated inspection group and is known as the "Surface Inspection Division" or
the "Intec Inspection Division".

         The Company believes that these two acquisitions have enhanced the
Company's technological capabilities and have distinguished the Company as a
global leader in the automated inspection business.
<PAGE>   4
         The Company operates two business divisions. The larger division, the
Intec Surface Inspection Division, offers a family of standard inspection
systems used in web process industries for control of primary and intermediate
processes and final inspection of finished material. The second business
division, the Amdex Industrial Computer Division, offers a full line of
industrial computers, computer monitors, and peripherals designed to operate
under harsh temperature, humidity, and shock conditions found in factory
environments. Amdex industrial computers are also integrated into inspection
systems delivered by the Company.

         The Company sells its products both domestically and internationally,
with approximately 60% of its revenues in fiscal year 1996 coming from
international markets. A European sales and service operation located near
Brussels, Belgium, coordinates distribution of all Company products in Europe
and maintains a local spare parts inventory and an applications laboratory. The
Company also has distributors and representatives in the Pacific Rim, South
America, the Middle East and Africa. Domestically, the Company sells its
products directly through its own sales personnel based in Trumbull,
Connecticut, and independent representatives throughout North America.


PRODUCTS - IN GENERAL

         The Company currently maintains two product lines. The Company's
primary product line is a family of standard web inspection systems used in
industry for both the control of intermediate processes and for final inspection
of finished material. The second product line is a full line of industrial
computers, monitors and peripherals. These products operate under harsh
temperature, humidity, shock and other adverse industrial conditions. The
Company's industrial computers are also incorporated into inspection systems
that the Company currently delivers.

         The Company's products range in price from under $10,000 for industrial
computers, $25,000 to $50,000 for a basic detection system, $80,000 to $125,000
for a standard performance inspection system, and $175,000 to $500,000 for an
advanced inspection system. The Surface Inspection Division, including the old
Aerodyne Systems Division now integrated into the Surface Inspection Division,
contributed 88% and 92%, respectively, to revenues for the fiscal years ended
September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995. The Industrial Computer Division
contributed 12% and 8%, respectively, to revenues for the fiscal years ended
September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995.


SURFACE INSPECTION DIVISION

         The Surface Inspection Division of the Company was established by
combining the technology, product lines and customer base of the Company and its
wholly-owned 

                                      -2-
<PAGE>   5
subsidiary, Intec. Currently this division supports more than 800 installed
systems worldwide. By monitoring a moving web of material visually searching for
surface defects, the Company's systems help manufacturers of a wide range of
different materials provide quality product to their customers. Its systems
alert users to the precise type, location and size of each defect. Patented and
proprietary techniques ensure accuracy by compensating for opacity, gloss,
surface roughness and many other factors. The Company's systems have been
installed in almost every industry where material is manufactured in a
continuous web.

         The Surface Inspection System Division targets those industries that
manufacture material on a continuous web. The largest users of these inspection
systems have been paper, plastics and photosensitive film suppliers. A number of
systems have, however, been utilized by the steel, aluminum, textiles, fibers,
glass and rubber industries. As the cost of inspection technology has decreased,
the Company believes that new inspection applications have increased.

         Based on the number of active process lines and the typical system
configuration purchased by customers in the various market sections, the Company
has identified the paper, plastics, photo-sensitives, metals, and converting
industries as its five target industry sections, and is focusing substantially
all of its efforts on these particular sections.

         The Surface Inspection Division offers three levels of surface
inspection equipment based on the level of technological control required. The
first level of equipment is a basic detection monitor. This equipment
continuously monitors the material and when an anomaly is observed the monitor
either notifies the operator by an alarm mechanism and/or sends an electronic
signal to another control system for corrective action. The second level of
equipment is a standard performance package which not only identifies defects,
but also provides a more sophisticated level of process control, assigns
physical parameters to categorize defects and provides a detailed quality
report. The third level of equipment is configured from standard hardware and
software modules to provide the customer with the maximum versatility through
the use of multiple detectors, double sided inspection, and the most
sophisticated level of defect classification. Systems currently offered by the
Surface Inspection Division include:

                        BASIC DETECTION SYSTEM: SMARTCAM

         The SmartCam System is a low cost single and multiple camera based
visual inspection system intended primarily for fixed, well-defined
applications. SmartCam has an array of CCD elements (charged coupled devices (a
capacitor)) which are sensitive to changes in the light pattern caused by
passing surface defects or edge features. This line image is scanned, digitized
and processed several thousand times every second to insure 100% inspection
coverage. When the measured deviation is found to exceed present limits, the
SmartCam instantly sets alarms to warn the operator or provide outputs for
machine control. SmartCam's open design and low cost are attractive for
converters,

                                      -3-
<PAGE>   6
integrators, and original equipment manufacturers ("OEM's") who want to
incorporate the advantages of inspection into their machinery. The base price
for a single camera system begins at $25,000.

                    STANDARD PERFORMANCE SYSTEM: SYSTEM 3000

         A laser-based web inspection system, the System 3000 has been designed
to provide a compact, medium cost, high performance inspection system for
customers who do not require the capabilities of, and who do not wish to incur
the expense associated with, purchasing the System 9000. In contrast to the
System 9000 which can be configured for simultaneous use of multiple laser or
camera scanners, the System 3000 is intended for relatively narrow (60 inches
and under) webs and supports only a laser scanner. The System 3000 supports 12
defect types which can be defined by length, width, repeat interval or density.
The average sale price is approximately $85,000.

                    ADVANCED CONFIGURABLE SYSTEM: SYSTEM 9000

         The System 9000 incorporates either laser-based or camera-based
sensors. Through its defect analysis and display processor, the System 9000 can
both detect the size and shape of an overall defect and also provide real time,
color graphic computer monitor displays and printed reports relating to such
defects. Laser-based and camera based System 9000's sell in the range of
$170,000 to $500,000, and up, based on configuration of the product.


INDUSTRIAL COMPUTER DIVISION

         In November 1991, the Company acquired Amdex Corporation ("Amdex"), a
PC-based industrial computer assembler. Following the Amdex acquisition, the
Company established its Industrial Computer Division which designs, assembles
and sells PC-based industrial computers and designs and sells CPU boards,
computer monitors and terminals. The Industrial Computer Division also develops
customized hardware and software applications.

         The Company's industrial computers are configured to function in the
harsh environmental conditions found on the factory floor, including wide
temperature fluctuations, electrical isolation, poor air flow and shock and
vibration. Industrial computers have applications in the integration of internal
development of equipment, external systems and imbedded computer processing.

         Products offered by the Industrial Computer Division embody two key
characteristics. The first is the capacity to offer customers the latest
computer processor engine, and the second is durability. The Company's
experience in building rugged equipment for surface inspection as well as for
space and military use has enabled the Company to produce equipment that will
work reliably in harsh environments.

                                      -4-

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

         Based on the increasing customer demand for new technological advances
that will enhance performance, the Company engages in both applications and new
product development. The Company's objective is to provide a general solution
for automated inspection which will satisfy requirements in multiple industries
by providing a standard line of products designed for flexibility and
modularity. The Company contemplates that such standardized products will
ultimately replace all special, one-of-a-kind systems currently in existence.
Recent examples of applications and/or new product development include the
System 3000 that was introduced in January 1993, and has since become a sales
leader, and the development of the repeat pattern recognition (RPR) module for
the System 9000 which was instrumental in new business with companies such as
Nan Ya Plastics and Tetra Pak. In addition to in-house developments, the Company
is continuously looking for product line additions through acquisition,
partnerships and/or other business relationships. Examples of such activities
are the addition to the product line of an edge crack and spray marking device,
the new SmartCam product, and various additions to the Amdex Industrial Computer
product line through OEM relationships made over the past several years.


MARKETING

         The Company focuses its sales and marketing efforts on three regions of
the world: The Americas, Western Europe and Asia-Pacific. In fiscal year 1996,
the Company shipped approximately 40% of its orders to North America, 43% to
Western Europe and 17% to the Asia-Pacific market.

         In North America, the Company markets and sells its products both
directly and through manufacturer's representatives. A European subsidiary,
Intec Europe, Ltd., ("European") located in Zaventem, Belgium, a suburb of
Brussels, coordinates sales, distribution and service of all of the Company's
products in Europe and works with manufacturer's representatives based in Italy,
England, Spain, France, Finland, Sweden, West Germany, Portugal and Belgium.
Intec Europe, Ltd. currently employs 8 people.

         The Company also has distributors and representatives in the Pacific
Rim, Australia, South America, the Middle East and Africa. The Company's
distributors and manufacturer's representatives do not represent the Company
exclusively. Under their distribution and manufacturer's representative
arrangements with the Company, however, such entities have agreed not to market
and sell products manufactured by competitors of the Company. The Company plans
to increase its global marketing efforts in fiscal year 1997.

                                      -5-
<PAGE>   8
ADVERTISING AND PROMOTION

         The promotional efforts of the Company have included product brochures,
press releases, technical presentations before trade and professional groups and
video tape presentations by direct mail. The Company has also exhibited its
product lines at major industry trade shows.

         The promotional efforts of the Company in fiscal year 1997 will be
focused mainly on participation at selected major trade shows, local customer
seminars, selected trade advertising, direct mail, conferences and the favorable
publicity gained through articles in key industry trade journals.


SERVICE AND WARRANTIES

         The Company services its surface inspection systems from its facilities
in Trumbull, Connecticut, and through its office in Belgium. It is anticipated
that its representative in Taiwan will begin to service the Company's growing
installed base in this area in fiscal 1997. Its Japanese distributor provides
service to customers in the Far East and a sales representative in Sweden
provides services to certain European and Scandinavian customers. The Company
enters into annual maintenance and service contracts with approximately 30% of
its customers. Specialized test equipment and service personnel fulfill its
maintenance and service obligations. In addition, it routinely conducts training
of customer personnel at its Trumbull, Connecticut, facility.

         For surface inspection systems, the Company provides an extensive
operating and maintenance training program for customer personnel. System
diagnostics enable plant personnel to identify and repair most problems down to
the printed circuit board level. Customers are encouraged to purchase spare
parts in conjunction with system purchases to ensure maximum equipment on line
availability. The Company has established a spare parts policy to ensure an
adequate supply of spare parts for equipment in the field. The Company provides
a one-year warranty for its surface inspection systems (parts and labor) on all
Company fabricated parts and passes on to the ultimate consumer the
manufacturers' warranties on OEM components. Through the purchase of an extended
preventive maintenance and service warranty, customers can extend the warranty
on surface inspection products for an additional six month period or longer.

         The Amdex Division offers no service contracts or training of customer
personnel for its products. The Amdex PC-based computer systems have a one-year
warranty. Extensive user documentation is provided.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>   9
COMPETITION

         The surface inspection industry is highly competitive. The Company's
current and future products compete and will compete with similar products
marketed by other companies and may compete against other developing
technologies. The Company's principal competitors in the laser inspection and
line scan technology markets are Sick Optik-Electronik, European Electronic
Systems International, ISYS, ABB, Measurex and Eastman Kodak. Other competitors
include Lasor, Futek and SIRA, a non-profit corporation. Some of these companies
are substantially larger in size and have greater financial, advertising,
marketing and other resources than the Company has or may be reasonably expected
to have in the future. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to continue to successfully compete with these or other companies.

         The Company believes that it has several advantages over its
competitors in the global marketplace. One advantage is that the Company is, to
its knowledge, one of very few companies offering multiple sensor technologies
to all major markets worldwide for continuous web processes. Further, the
Company believes that it is the only company serving all application areas,
e.g., paper, photographic and light sensitive films and plates, plastics, metal,
non-wovens, etc. In addition, the Company believes that its twenty five years in
the industrial inspection industry, together with its support of multiple
industries worldwide in such diverse areas as pulp, paper and photosensitive
materials, provide it with greater credibility and experience than many of its
competitors who have been in business for a shorter time period. Additionally,
the Company's offering of several standardized inspection system models at
various prices, including its less capital-intensive systems, provide it with a
significant advantage over its competitors who offer a single product.
Furthermore, the Company's establishment of multinational sales, distribution
and service capabilities have placed it in a position to compete both
domestically and abroad.

         The principal competitors of the Company's Industrial Computer Division
are IBM, Texas Micro Systems, ICS, Ibus and Action Instruments. The Company
believes that several of its product features, including its compact, slim-line
product, rugged enclosures, air cooling system, vibration-isolated hard disk
drives and the radio frequency interference/electromagnetic interference
filtering system enhance the durability and reliability of its products, and
provide the Company with a competitive advantage in the PC-based industrial
computer market.


MANUFACTURING AND SUPPLIERS

         The manufacturing process for the Company's products consists primarily
of assembly and testing of subsystems and components. The Company relies on
outside suppliers for all of its manufacturing supplies, parts and components.
The Company does rely on a limited number of sole source suppliers and to date
has not had any problems obtaining the components and subassemblies needed to
complete its products.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>   10
If the Company were unable to obtain the required components and subassemblies
from its current suppliers, the Company believes that there are a number of
other vendors available to satisfy the Company's needs. The Company believes
that it is more cost effective to purchase the components and subassemblies than
to spend valuable resources to acquire costly capital equipment to manufacture
the parts internally.


ENGINEERING, RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

         During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996, the Company incurred
engineering expenses of $644,337, including research and development expenses
of $169,000. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995, the Company
incurred engineering expenses of  $390,629, including research and
development expenses of $110,000. The increase of $253,708 between 1996 and
1995 is due primarily to the addition of strategic personnel to accelerate new
product development.


PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

         The Company currently owns two United States patents for
three-dimensional image technology and one United States patent for a mask web
inspection system for use in the production of integrated circuits.

         In addition, through the acquisition of Intec in 1992, the Company
obtained federal patent protection relating to its surface inspection systems. A
number of these patents relate to the tracking of defects through Intec's laser
scanner flaw detection system, as well as to the Company's System 3000.

         The Industrial Computer Division has neither applied for nor holds any
patents relating to its products.


MAJOR CUSTOMERS

         For fiscal year ended September 30, 1996, there were no customers
accounting for 10% or more of the Company's total revenues. For fiscal year
ended September 30, 1995, sales to Nan Ya Plastics approximated 15% of
consolidated sales. The Company does not anticipate that any one customer will
be a major factor in the future. Management believes that as the Company
continues to expand and diversifies its product lines and customer base, of
which there can be no assurance, its reliance in the future on any single
customer will not be significant.

                                      -8-
<PAGE>   11
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE

         In May of 1992, the Company filed a Form III with the Connecticut
Department of Environmental Protection relating to Intec's discovery of the
presence of tetrachloroethylene in the soil and possible contamination at its
headquarters in Trumbull, Connecticut. This discovery was confirmed by a Limited
Phase II Assessment performed by Enviro-Shield, Inc. in April and May of 1992.
As of December, 1996, the Company had incurred expenses of approximately $35,000
in connection with the investigation of this matter. Based on preliminary
findings and tests as recent as August 23, 1996, the Company does not believe
that a significant environmental liability exists, although there can be no
assurance that the Company will not incur substantial additional expense in
connection with the investigation of this matter or compliance orders from the
State of Connecticut. The Company believes that such additional remediation as
may be requested will not be material.


EMPLOYEES

         As of December 8, 1996, the Company employed 50 persons in Trumbull,
Connecticut, and Brussels, Belgium, on a full-time basis. Eight persons are
employed in sales and marketing, seven in technical services, six in
engineering, seventeen in manufacturing and twelve in finance and
administration. The Company considers its relations with its employees to be
satisfactory.


ITEM 2.           DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

         The Company occupies approximately 30,000 square feet in a single-story
building in a modern industrial park in Trumbull, Connecticut. This facility
houses corporate activities, the Intec Inspection Division and the Amdex
Industrial Computer Division. The Trumbull, Connecticut, facilities include
special optics laboratories, demonstration laboratories, corporate offices, and
manufacturing, assembly and testing areas. The Trumbull facilities are leased
from an unaffiliated third party under a lease that expires on May 31, 1999,
with an option to renew for one additional five-year term. The base annual rent
for the premises is approximately $240,000. In addition, the Company pays for
common area maintenance, building insurance expenses and real estate taxes. The
rent is subject to increase in the event the renewal option is exercised. The
Company believes that the Connecticut facility is adequate for its current and
anticipated future needs.

         The Company also leases approximately 14,000 square feet in Brussels,
Belgium at a cost of approximately $74,000 per year through its subsidiary,
Intec Europe Ltd.

ITEM 6.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

GENERAL

         During fiscal year 1995, management was able to effect a significant
turnaround beginning with the first quarter and continuing through the entire
year. However, in fiscal year 1996, the Company suffered from a reduction in
revenues from $9,073,432 to $6,438,213 caused in part by a low opening backlog
and lower than anticipated generation and closing of new business proposals.

                                      -11-
<PAGE>   14
         The Company has made organization changes and management believes that
the expanded and improved marketing and sales organizations will produce
profitable results in fiscal year 1997.

         New operations and manufacturing management is revaluating procedures
as well as analyzing previous out-sourcing decisions with the view to reducing
costs of inventories and also improving shipping schedules. The Company expects
these programs to improve gross profits which fell from 46% of net sales in 1995
to 44% of net sales in 1996.

         The Company continues to search for strategic alliances to enhance its
position in the markets it serves and to work more closely with other equipment
manufacturers to create marketing and sales synergy.

         Increased product development activity in both hardware and software is
expected to yield greater benefits for the Company's customers and prospects and
thus help increase revenues.

         Although the Company believes its new programs and management will be
successful in effecting a turnaround in fiscal 1997, there can be no assurance
that it will achieve its objectives.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AS COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995.

NET SALES

         The Company had net sales for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996
("fiscal year 1996"), of $6,438,213 as compared to $9,073,432 for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1995 ("fiscal year 1995"). The decrease reflects the
short fall of orders for fiscal year 1996 for both the Inspection and Industrial
Computer Divisions along with shipment delays of certain orders of the
Inspection Division into fiscal year 1997. Fiscal year 1995 net sales reflected
improved performance of the Inspection Division in penetrating the markets in
Europe and Asia Pacific.

                                      -12-
<PAGE>   15
GROSS PROFIT

         The Company generated a gross profit of $2,843,698 or 44% of net sales
for fiscal year 1996 compared to a gross profit of $4,151,427 or 46% of net
sales for fiscal year 1995. The decrease in gross profit and gross profit
percentages is due primarily to the decrease in net sales and extra discounting
on certain major orders for systems due to strong competition and/or to
establish a strategic presence in the Asia-Pacific region.


SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

         This category of expenses totaled $2,934,833 or 46% of net sales for
fiscal year 1996, compared to $2,874,321 or 32% of net sales for fiscal year
1995. The decrease in selling expense in fiscal year 1996 was due primarily to
the reduction of commission expense due to lower net sales, shift of expenses
from selling to general and administrative and slightly reduced advertising
costs. The increase in general and administrative expense for fiscal year 1996
was due primarily to increased legal cost and increased costs of pursuing new
borrowing facilities. Also, fiscal year 1995 general and administrative expense
was lower due to favorable adjustments to reserves during that year.


ENGINEERING AND RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES

         The Company had engineering and research and development costs of
$644,337 or 10% of net sales for fiscal year 1996, compared to $390,629 or 4% of
net sales for fiscal year 1995. This increase reflects the addition of strategic
personnel to accelerate new product development. The Company believes that the
acceleration of product development will have a favorable impact on future net
sales.


AMORTIZATION OF COSTS IN EXCESS OF NET ASSETS ACQUIRED (GOODWILL)

         The Company is amortizing Goodwill associated with the acquisition of
Intec over a fifteen year period. Amortization was $307,462 for both fiscal year
1996 and fiscal year 1995.


INTEREST EXPENSE/INTEREST INCOME

         The Company had interest expense of $108,854 or 2% of net sales for
fiscal year 1996, compared to $142,319 or 2% of net sales for fiscal year 1995.
This reduction is due to the Company's entering into a revolving financing
agreement to replace existing bank debt which resulted in a reduction of
principal outstanding. Interest income for fiscal year 1996 and fiscal year 1995
were $8,570 and $9,039 respectively.

                                      -13-
<PAGE>   16
MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSE

         There were no miscellaneous expenses in fiscal year 1996, compared to
$75,000 in fiscal year 1995. The $75,000 was comprised solely of a reserve for
an officer's loan generated in 1992 to cover a tax liability caused by the
requirement imposed by the underwriter of the Company's 1991 initial public
offering on an officer with respect to the conversion of his accrued deferred
compensation to shares of stock. The Board of Directors waived interest on this
loan and has waived payment of principal (forgave the debt) in view of the
circumstances of this loan.

NET INCOME (LOSS)

         The net loss for fiscal year 1996 was $1,143,218 or $.22 per share,
compared to a net income of $370,735 or $.10 per share in fiscal year 1995. This
significant decline in fiscal year 1996 was due primarily to the reduction in
net sales, competitive and strategic pricing in the Far East Market, the minor
increase in selling and general and administrative costs, increased engineering
and research and development costs offset by reduction in interest and
miscellaneous expenses as covered in this discussion. Amortization of cost in
excess of net assets of business acquired was $307,462 in fiscal year 1996 and
1995, or $0.06 per share in fiscal year 1996 and $0.08 in fiscal year 1995.


BACKLOG

         At December 9, 1996, the Company's backlog of customer orders was
approximately $3,037,000, compared to approximately $1,097,000 at December 19,
1995. This increase in shippable orders reflects improved inspection division
activity in all sectors, i.e. North America, Asia Pacific and Europe.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         At September 30, 1996, the Company had positive working capital of
$203,277, compared to a working capital of $1,166,128 at September 30, 1995. The
decrease in working capital is due primarily to a net loss of $1,143,218 for the
year ended September 30, 1996. During 1996 the Company had positive cash flow
from operations of $518,509.

         During 1995 and 1996, the Company received $1,119,496, net of offering
expenses, from a private offering for an aggregate of 2,000,000 units of its
securities at $.80 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of common stock,
one Class C warrant, and one Class D warrant. The Company also distributed
200,000 units to the two placement agents who assisted the Company with the
offering. Each Class C and D warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half
share of common stock for a period of three years commencing on December 1,
1995. See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information
concerning the warrants.

         As of November 1, 1996, the Company and Intec Europe entered into a
commercial revolving loan, demand loan and security agreement (the "1996
Financing Agreement") with American Commercial Finance Corporation ("ACFC").
Pursuant to the 1996 Financing Agreement, the Company and Intec Europe may
borrow against eligible accounts receivable and inventory of the Company and
Intec Europe amounts not

                                      -14-
<PAGE>   17
to exceed $1,500,000. In connection with the 1996 Financing Agreement, the
Company and Intec Europe delivered to ACFC a revolving promissory note in the
principal amount of $1,500,000 and a demand promissory note in the principal
amount of $500,000 (collectively, the "Notes"). The total principal amount
outstanding under the Notes may not exceed $1,500,000 at any time. The Notes
bear interest at 4% per annum above the prime rate on a floating basis and are
due and payable on October 31, 1999, unless demand is made by ACFC prior to such
date. The Notes are secured by a first priority security interest in all of the
Company's personal property. In connection with the execution of the 1996
Financing Agreement, the Company issued to ACFC warrants to purchase 100,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share
(subject to adjustment), exercisable until October 31, 2003.

         Upon the closing of the 1996 Financing Agreement, the Company received
an initial disbursement of $781,500, of which approximately $640,000 was used to
repay existing indebtedness of the Company.

         The Company has received proposals from a bank regarding the financing
of export material and accounts receivable in conjunction with a guarantee from
the US Export Import Bank. The Company has also received a proposal from its new
lender for the financing of export accounts receivable. The Company expects to
proceed to closure with one of the two proposals, but there are no assurances
that the additional loans covered by the proposals will close.

         At December 9, 1996, the Company's backlog of customer orders was
approximately $3,037,000, compared to $1,097,000 at December 19, 1995. This
increase in the backlog should result in earlier shipments, causing an
increase in the associated accounts receivable generated which should increase
the borrowing base under the Company's 1996 Financing Agreement and,
consequently, the Company's liquidity.


CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

         The Company does not have any commitments for capital expenditures at
this time.


EFFECT OF INFLATION

         The Company believes that inflation has not had a material effect on
its results of operation or financial condition during the last two fiscal
years. The Company has not entered long-term contracts with its customers or
suppliers and has generally been able to pass along increased costs incurred by
it.

ITEM 8.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND 
         FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE


         KPMG Peat Marwick LLP ("KPMG") were previously the principal
accountants for the Registrant. The accountants resigned as of August 31, 1995,
by letter dated August 30, 1995, attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1, and received
August 31, 1995, by the Registrant.

         In connection with the audits of the fiscal years ended September 30,
1994, and September 24, 1993, and the subsequent interim period through August
30, 1995, there were no "disagreements" (as that term is defined in Item 304 of
Regulation S-B of the Securities Exchange Act (the "Act")) with KPMG on any
matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their
satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with their
opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement.

         The audit reports of KPMG on the consolidated financial statements of
the Registrant and its subsidiary, as of and for the years ended September 30,
1994, and September 24, 1993, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer
of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope,
or accounting principles, except as follows: KPMG's auditor's report on the
consolidated financial statements of the Registrant and its subsidiary, as of
and for the years ended September 30, 1994, and September 24, 1993, contained a
separate paragraph stating that "the Company is currently in default of a debt
agreement and its recurring losses from operations, accumulated deficit and
working capital deficiency, raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability
to continue as a going concern." Management's plans in regard to these matters
were also described in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements for the
fiscal year ended September 30, 1995. The consolidated financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

         The Registrant engaged new principal independent accountants, McGladrey
& Pullen ("M&P"), to audit the Registrant's financial statements as of and for
the year ended September 30, 1995. The engagement was effective as of October
13, 1995 and its terms are set out in the letter dated October 10, 1995,
attached hereto as Exhibit 16.3.

         During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years, and any
subsequent period prior to engagement of McGladrey & Pullen, the Registrant has
not consulted M&P regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a
specified transaction or the type

                                      -16-
<PAGE>   19
of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant's financial statements
and no written or oral reports were rendered to the Registrant by M&P thereto,
or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a "disagreement" (as that term
is defined in Item 304 (a) (1) (iv) of Regulation S-B of the Act).

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

Dr. Gerald W. Stewart

         The Company has entered into an employment agreement (the "Employment
Agreement") with Dr. Gerald W. Stewart, as President and Chief Executive
Officer, effective January 1, 1994. The Employment Agreement provides for a
five-year term and an annual base salary of $125,000 payable in substantially
equal payments in accordance with the Company's usual practices, with
reimbursement for reasonable business expenses. The base salary was increased to
$145,000 per year as of October 1, 1995. A cash bonus determined by the Board of
Directors can be earned if the Company meets or exceeds the target goals for the
year, as set by the Board of Directors.

         Dr. Stewart's employment may be terminated by the Company at any time
for "good cause" (as defined in the Employment Agreement) and Dr. Stewart may
terminate his employment at any time by providing 30 days' prior written notice
to the Company. Under either of these circumstances, the Company will be
obligated to pay Dr. Stewart his base salary plus accrued bonus and expenses
through the end of the month of termination. If the Company terminates Dr.
Stewart's employment other than for "good cause" or if Dr. Stewart terminates
his employment due to a material breach by the Company of the Employment
Agreement, Dr. Stewart shall be entitled to receive from the Company a sum equal
to the then most recent base salary, payable in 10 consecutive equal monthly
installments.

         The Employment Agreement also includes non-competition provisions which
prevent Dr. Stewart from competing with the Company while employed by the
Company

                                      -22-
<PAGE>   25
and which prevent Dr. Stewart, for a period of two years, from hiring any
employee of the Company or from persuading any employee, customer, independent
contractor, dealer, supplier or client of the Company from discontinuing its
relationship with the Company. If Dr. Stewart's employment is terminated by the
Company without "good cause" or by Dr. Stewart as a result of a material breach
of the Employment Agreement by the Company, the two-year period mentioned above
shall be reduced to one year.


Joseph Schlig

         The Company has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Joseph
Schlig as Vice President of Finance, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and
Secretary of the Company effective September 30, 1995. The employment agreement
provides for a one year term, renewable, and an annual base salary of $100,000
payable in substantially equal payments in accordance with the Company's usual
practices, with reimbursement for reasonable business expenses. A cash bonus
determined by the Board of Directors can be earned if the Company meets or
exceeds the target goals for the year, set by the Board of Directors. In
addition, a grant of a qualified option to purchase 100,000 shares of Common
Stock was made at the fair market value of the Common Stock on October 1, 1995,
the date of grant, exercisable for a period of five years from the date of
grant.

         Mr. Schlig's employment may be terminated by the Company at any time
for "good cause" (as defined in the employment agreement) and Mr. Schlig may
terminate his employment at any time by providing 30 days' prior written notice
to the Company. Under either of these circumstances, the Company will be
obligated to pay Mr. Schlig his base salary plus accrued bonus and expenses
through the end of the month of termination. If the Company terminates Mr.
Schlig's employment other than for "good cause" or if Mr. Schlig terminates his
employment due to a material breach by the Company of the Employment Agreement,
Mr. Schlig shall be entitled to receive from the Company a sum equal to the then
most recent base salary, payable in 10 consecutive equal monthly installments.

         The employment agreement also includes non-competition provisions which
prevent Mr. Schlig from competing with the Company while employed by the Company
and which prevent Mr. Schlig, for a period of two years, from hiring any
employee of the Company or from persuading any employee, customer, independent
contractor, dealer, supplier or client of the Company from discontinuing its
relationship with the Company. If Mr. Schlig's employment is terminated by the
Company without "good cause" or by Mr. Schlig as a result of a material breach
of the employment agreement by the Company, the two-year period mentioned above
shall be reduced to one year.

STOCK OPTION PLANS

         The Company has previously adopted the 1985 Incentive Stock Option Plan
(the "1985 Plan"), which provides that options granted thereunder are intended
to qualify as "incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422 of the
United States Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). No further options
may be granted under the 1985 Plan, but it continues to govern options
previously issued pursuant to it.

         The Company has also adopted a 1991 Stock Option Plan (the "1991
Plan"). The 1991 Plan provides for the grant of options intended to qualify as
incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code as well as
for the grant of nonstatutory options. Although incentive stock options are
issuable only to employees of the Company, nonstatutory options may be issued to
non-employee directors, consultants and others, as well as to employees. The
1985 Plan and the 1991 Plan are collectively referred to herein as the "Plans".

         The 1985 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors and the 1991
Plan is administered by a committee of no less than two members of the Board of
Directors, each of whom is a disinterested person within the meaning of Rule
16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company currently has 62,500
shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 1985 Plan and there are
520,000 shares reserved for issuance under the 1991 Plan. The Board of Directors
and the Compensation Committee, respectively determine which individuals shall
receive options, the time period during which the options may be partially or
fully exercised, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased
under each option and the exercise price thereof.

         The exercise price of incentive stock options may not be less than 100%
of the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock on the date the options
are granted (110% in the case of an employee who owns, directly or indirectly,
at the time of the grant more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all
classes of capital stock of the Company (a "10% Stockholder")). The aggregate
fair market value (determined as of the date the options are granted) of the
shares of Common Stock for which an employee may be granted Incentive Stock
options in any calendar year may not exceed $100,000.

         No options may be transferred by an optionee other than by will or the
laws of descent and distribution, and during the lifetime of an optionee, the
option may be exercised only by him. In the event of termination of employment
other than by death or disability, incentive stocks options will terminate
immediately. Under the 1985 Plan, upon termination of employment of an optionee
by reason of death, options remain exercisable for ninety days thereafter to the
extent they were exercisable on the date of such termination. Also under the
1985 Plan, if an employee is terminated as a result of disability, any
outstanding options, to the extent then exercisable, may be exercised within six
months. Under the 1991 Plan, upon the death of an optionee, his options 

                                      -24-
<PAGE>   27
remain exercisable for one year thereafter to the extent they were exercisable
on the date of death. The 1991 Plan also provides that upon termination of
employment of an optionee as a result of disability, any outstanding incentive
stock options, to the extent then exercisable, may be exercised within one year.

         The exercise period of the options granted under the Plan cannot exceed
10 years from the date of grant, unless the optionee is a 10% stockholder, in
which case the period of the options may not exceed five years from the date of
grant. All options granted under the Plans provide for the payment of the
exercise price in cash or by delivery to the Company of shares of Common Stock
already owned by the optionee having fair market value equal to the exercise
price of the options being exercised, or by a combination of such methods of
payment. Therefore, an optionee may be able to tender shares of Common Stock to
purchase additional shares of Common Stock and may theoretically exercise all of
his stock options with no investment other than the consideration paid for his
original shares.

         Any options granted under the 1991 Plan that expire unexercised or that
terminate become available once again for issuance. Shares issued upon exercise
of an option will rank equally with the shares then outstanding.


401K PLAN

         On January 1, 1994, Industrial Technologies, Inc. adopted the "Intec
Retirement Plan" with an original effective date of January 1, 1986. The Plan is
a qualified 401K Profit Sharing Plan under the Internal Revenue Codes. The
Company has made no contributions to the Plan in 1996 and 1995.


COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

         Dr. Stewart and Mr. Twerdahl do not receive any compensation for
serving as directors. The Company has agreed to reimburse Messrs. Schiavoni and
Davidoff for the expenses they incur to attend Board meetings and also to pay
each a fee of $1,200 for each meeting attended. In addition, non-employee
directors receive a warrant to purchase 6,000 shares upon their re-election to
the Board of Directors.


ITEM 11. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

         The following table sets forth, as of November 29, 1996, the ownership

own of record or beneficially more than five percent of the Company's Common
Stock, (ii) each of the Company's directors, and (iii) all directors and
officers as a group. Except as otherwise indicated, the stockholders listed in

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Industrial Technologies, Inc.
Trumbull, Connecticut



We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Industrial
Technologies, Inc. and subsidiary as of September 30, 1996 and 1995, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, 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 Industrial
Technologies, Inc. and subsidiary as of September 30, 1996 and 1995 and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 1.  NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of business

Industrial Technologies, Inc. and subsidiary (the "Company"), formerly Aerodyne
Products Corporation, designs, assembles and markets automated surface
inspection systems, electro-optical sensors, other laser-based equipment and
industrial computers and related products. The Company's surface inspection
group's customers include web process manufacturers of paper, plastics, film
photosensitive materials, steel, aluminum, glass, non wovens and rubber
products. The Company's industrial computer group offers a full line of
industrial-strength processors, displays and peripherals to a variety of
customers. The Company sells its products throughout the United States and
internationally, primarily Europe and the Far East. The Company extends credit
to its customers on terms that it establishes for each individual customer.

A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies follows:

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned subsidiary, Intec Corporation. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Sales

Revenue from sales of the Company's products is recorded upon shipment of
products or performance of services.

Cash

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may
exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in
such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit
risk on its cash deposits.

Inventories

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using
the first-in, first out (FIFO) method. Work in process and finished goods
include materials, labor and allocated overhead.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed by the
straight-line and accelerated methods over the following estimated useful lives:


<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                                                            Years
                                                           --------
<S>              <C>                                        <C>
                 Leasehold improvements                       6
                 Machinery and test equipment               3 - 7
                 Furniture and office equipment             3 - 7
</TABLE>

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the term of the lease. Expenditures
for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations.

Cost in excess of net assets of business acquired

Cost in excess of net assets of business acquired is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 15 years. The Company assesses the recoverability of
this intangible asset by determining whether the balance of the asset can be
recovered through projected future cash flows derived from assets associated
with the acquisition of this asset.

Estimated warranty

The Company sells its products with a warranty that provides for repairs or
replacements of any defective parts for a six to twelve month period after the
sale. At the time of the sale, the Company accrues an estimate of the cost of
providing the warranty based on prior experience.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


Deferred taxes

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets
are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the
effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Research and development expense

The Company incurred research and development expense for fiscal years 1996 and
1995 of approximately $169,000 and $110,000, respectively.

Earnings (loss) per share

Earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the
weighted average number of common stock and common stock equivalents (warrants
and options) outstanding during the year. Common stock equivalents are not
considered in the calculation of earnings (loss) per share when their effect
would be anti-dilutive.

Newly issued accounting standards

In March 1995, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed
Of" was issued. This statement is required to be adopted by the Company for its
fiscal year beginning October 1, 1996. This statement provides broad criteria
for determining when assets should be considered potentially impaired and
provides guidance as to the measurement methods of recording the amount of loss
to be recognized for impaired assets. Although management has not completed its
assessment of the impact of this statement, management does not expect the
impact of this statement to be material to the Company's financial position or
results of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


In October 1995, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" was issued. This statement is required
to be adopted by the Company for its fiscal year beginning October 1, 1996 for
stock-based compensation to employees. However, the statement applies to all
transactions after December 15, 1995 with non-employees for goods and services.
This statement applies to all transactions in which an entity acquires goods or
services by issuing equity instruments or by incurring liabilities to the
supplier in amounts based on the price of the entity's common stock or other
equity instruments. Therefore, it applies to all transactions in which an entity
grants shares of its common stock, stock options, or other equity instruments to
its employees, except for equity instruments held by an employee stock ownership
plan. The Statement provides a choice of accounting methods for stock-based
compensation arrangements with employees using either a fair value based method
of accounting or the intrinsic value method of accounting. Management has not
completed its assessment of the impact of this statement and has not decided
upon the measurement basis to be utilized for its stock options.

NOTE 4.  NOTES PAYABLE


The Company had a revolving financing agreement (the "1995 Financing Agreement")
with a financing company, which represented a $2,000,000 revolving credit line.
There was approximately $240,000 outstanding on this line at September 30, 1996.
The 1995 Financing Agreement was terminated on November 1, 1996 upon payment of
all outstanding amounts with the proceeds of the 1996 Financing Agreement
described below. Loans made pursuant to the agreement bore interest at 15% per
annum (minimum of $4,000 per month), were due upon demand and were
collateralized by substantially all Company assets. The 1995 Financing Agreement
also included a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at $2 per
share. The warrant provides anti-dilution protection and certain registration
rights and is exercisable through August 31, 2000.

Subsequent to September 30, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with a
new lender for a revolving loan of $1,500,000 and a demand loan of $500,000 (the
"1996 Financing Agreement"). The revolving loan requires interest to be paid
monthly and has a maximum borrowing base of: the lesser of $1,500,000 or the
aggregate of (1) 80% of the Company's eligible domestic accounts receivable and
(2) the lesser of 80% of the Company's eligible foreign accounts receivable or
$250,000. The demand loan is payable in monthly installments of approximately
$16,700 plus interest commencing May 1997 through October 1999 and has a maximum
borrowing amount of the lesser of 30% of the domestic inventory or $500,000.
From November 1996 through April 1997 payments are interest only. Both loans
bear interest at the prime rate plus 4%. In conjunction with the 1996 Financing
Agreement, the lender was issued warrants to purchase up to 100,000 shares of
the Company's common stock at $0.50 per share, exercisable until October 31,
2003. Borrowings under this agreement are secured by substantially all the
Company's assets. Significant covenants limit substantially the obtainment of
any additional debt without the prior approval of the lender and the payment of
dividends. The Company is in compliance with the covenants of this lending
agreement.

The Company has a note payable to a stockholder which represents a $180,000 line
of credit. The line of credit accrues interest at 10% and the principal and
accrued interest are payable on demand. In November 1996, the line of credit was
subordinated through October 1999 to all borrowings made pursuant to the 1996
Financing Agreement. Therefore, at September 30, 1996, the note payable to
stockholder is classified as a long-term liability.

During 1996 the Company borrowed $200,000 from another stockholder, with
interest payable at 8%, due November 1996. As an inducement, the Company issued
150,000 shares of non-registered common stock to the lender. Subsequent to
fiscal year end, and also as part of the 1996 Financing Agreement, this loan was
repaid.

The weighted average interest rate on outstanding short-term debt at September
30, 1996 was 11.3%.

NOTE 7.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

During 1995 and 1996, the Company received $1,119,496, net of offering expenses,
from a private offering for an aggregate of 2,000,000 units of its securities at
$.80 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of common stock, one Class C
warrant, and one Class D warrant. Under the terms of the private offering the
Company is required to file a Registration Statement for all of the securities
comprising the units. The Company also distributed 200,000 units to the two
placement agents who assisted the Company with the offering.

Each Class C and D warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half share of
common stock for a period of three years commencing on December 1, 1995. After
January 23, 1996, the exercise price of the warrants are discounted by $.05 for
each month, or part thereof, until a Registration Statement becomes effective.
The Registration Statement has been filed and became effective May 31, 1996. The
initial exercise price of the C warrants was $2.75 per common share. The initial
exercise price of the D warrants was $3.75 per common share. The warrants are
subject to redemption by the Company after the first exercise date at $.01 per
share on 30 days written notice if the bid price of the common stock for a
period of 10 consecutive trading days prior to such notice equals or exceeds
$3.025 per share.

The initial exercise price for the C warrants is subject to a downward
adjustment for each quarter in fiscal year 1995. The adjustment is determined by
multiplying the percentage that actual operating profit in the respective
quarter is to the projected operating profit times the exercise price on the
first day of the quarter. There is no adjustment upward. Based on actual results
for the year ended September 30, 1995, the initial exercise price of the C
warrants has been adjusted to $0.11 per share.

The initial exercise price for the D warrants is subject to a downward
adjustment by the amount which is equal to multiplying the percentage that
actual operating profit for fiscal year 1995 is to $1.2 million times the
initial exercise price. There is no adjustment upward. Based on actual results
for the year ended September 30, 1995, the initial exercise price of the D
warrants has been adjusted to $1.56 per share.

In July 1991, the Company sold 690,000 Units for $6.50 per Unit in an Initial
Public Offering (the "IPO") of its stock. Each Unit sold consisted of one share
of Common Stock, $.01 par value, one Class A Common Stock Purchase Warrant and
one Class B Common Stock Purchase Warrant. The shares of Common Stock and the
Warrants included in the Units are detachable and separately transferable. Each
Class A Warrant and each Class B Warrant entitle the holder to purchase one
share of Common Stock at prices of $8.00 and $12.00, respectively. The right to
exercise the Class A and B Warrants will expire on September 30, 1997, as
amended on September 25, 1996. The Company has agreed to pay the Underwriter

exercise of any Class A or Class B warrants.

The Company sold to the Underwriter, for $.001 per warrant, warrants to purchase
60,000 shares of common stock at a price of 120% of the public offering price
per unit ($7.80 per unit). These warrants expired unexercised in July, 1996.

NOTE 8.  STOCK OPTION PLANS

The Company's 1991 Stock Option Plan (the "1991 Plan") provides for the granting
of incentive stock options to purchase a total of 520,000 shares of common stock
to key employees as determined by the Board of Directors. Incentive options are
granted at a price equal to or greater than the fair market value of the
Company's common stock at the grant date and expire up to ten years from the

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


For financial reporting purposes, a valuation allowance of $4,321,000 and
$4,093,000 has been recognized as of September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively,
to reflect the estimated amount of operating loss carryforwards and temporary
differences which may not be realized.

For the year ended September 30, 1996, there was no tax provision due to the 
Company's net loss.

At September 30, 1996, the Company had net federal operating loss carryforwards
of approximately $10,078,000 attributable to Industrial Technologies, Inc. and
subsidiary and $1,275,000 attributable to Intec Corp., which expire from 1997
through 2009. However, the ability of the Company to realize future tax benefit
from its net operating loss carryforwards is significantly limited under
Internal Revenue Code Section 382 because of a series of greater than 50% stock
ownership changes. In addition, the net operating loss carryforwards
attributable to Intec Corp. will be further limited by the separate return
limitation year (SRLY) rule.

Due to a greater than 50% change in stock ownership during the three-year period
ended in March 1989, the amount of the net operating loss carryforwards as of
March 1989 which may be utilized in each year will be limited to $157,000 per
year. Due to a greater than 50% change in stock ownership during the period
March 1989 through July 1991, the amount of net operating loss carryforwards
generated during that period which may be utilized in future years will be
limited to $439,000 per year. Due to a greater than 50% change in stock
ownership in May 1992 from the Intec acquisition, the amount of net operating
loss carryforwards since that acquisition which may be utilized in future years
will be limited to $85,000 per year.

NOTE 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

During the year ended September 30, 1995, the Company recorded a $75,000 reserve
in connection with a note receivable from an officer/stockholder in anticipation
that the amount would be forgiven by the Company's Board of Directors. This loan
was forgiven during 1996.

NOTE 13. DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that
value:

Notes payable

The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of
these instruments.

Subordinated note payable to stockholders

The fair value of the Company's subordinated note payable to stockholders is
estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues, or
on the current rate offered to the Company, for debt of the same remaining
maturities.

The estimated fair values for the Company's financial instruments are as
follows:

NOTE 14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On January 1, 1994, the Company adopted the "Intec Retirement Plan" with an
original effective date of January 1, 1986. The Plan is a qualified 401k Profit
Sharing Plan under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company is not required to and
has made no contributions to the Plan in 1996 or 1995.

The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain officers of the
Company. The agreements are for terms ranging from one year to five years and
provide for a base salary and certain benefits which are specified in each of
the agreements. Each of the agreements also provide for severance pay for
termination under certain circumstances which are defined in the agreements. The
minimum annual commitments under the agreements are 1997: $376,000; 1998:
$276,000; 1999: $167,250; 2000: $131,000; and 2001: $131,000.

Intec Corp. is currently working with the Department of Environmental protection
of the State of Connecticut (CT-DEP) to review, and to clear, all adverse
findings with respect to the Tetrachloroethylene Analysis performed in May 1992.
This analysis was performed in conjunction with the CT-DEP Property Transfer
Program. A follow-up analysis was made as recently as August 1995. Although the
levels of the contaminant have decreased substantially, they still remain above
acceptable levels. Appropriate methods are being employed to lower these levels.
Tests will continue until compliance levels have been met. The Company has spent
approximately $35,000 to date. The Company believes the resolution of this
matter will not have a material impact on the financial position, results of
operations and cash flows of the Company.

The Company has changed its general counsel and has a dispute with its prior
general counsel. The Company does not believe that the resolution of this
dispute will have a material effect on its financial position.

During 1996, the Company entered into a licensing agreement whereby the licensor
will allow the Company to utilize certain proprietary technology over ten years.
Royalties of 5% of the selling price of all products designated by the agreement
are payable semiannually with a minimum royalty of $170,000 due for the first
five years.

NOTE 15. LIQUIDITY

At September 30, 1996, the Company had positive working capital of $203,277,
compared to working capital of $1,166,128, at September 30, 1995. The decrease
in working capital is due primarily to a net loss of $1,143,218 for the year
ended September 30, 1996. In addition, during 1996 the Company had positive cash
flow from operations of $518,509.

On November 1, 1996, the Company entered into the 1996 Financing Agreement, a
$1,500,000 revolving loan and demand loan described in Note 4.

The Company has received proposals from a bank regarding the financing of export
material and accounts receivable in conjunction with a guarantee from the U.S.
Export Import Bank. The Company has also received a proposal from its new lender
for the financing of export accounts receivable. The Company expects to proceed
to closure with one of the two proposals, but there are no assurances that the
additional loans covered by the proposals will close.

At December 9, 1996, the Company's backlog of customer orders was approximately
$3,037,000 compared to $1,097,000 at December 19, 1995. This increase in the
backlog should result in earlier shipments, causing an increase in the
associated accounts receivable generated which should increase the borrowing
base under the Company's 1996 Financing Agreement and, consequently, the
Company's liquidity.

NOTE 16. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company is principally engaged in two business segments: the Surface
Inspection Division Segment ("Inspection") and the Amdex Industrial Computer
Division Segment ("Amdex"). Both businesses are engaged in marketing their
products internationally and domestically. Inspection includes the development,
manufacturing, and marketing of a family of standard web inspection system used
in industry for both the control of intermediate processes and for

the final inspection of finished material. Amdex is engaged in the development,
manufacturing and marketing of a full line of industrial computers, monitors and
peripherals which operate under harsh temperature, humidity, shock and other
adverse industrial conditions. The Company's industrial computers are also
incorporated into the Company's inspection systems.

Operating loss is total revenue less operating expenses, excluding other income
or expense. Identifiable assets of each segment are the assets used by that
segment in its operations, excluding general corporate assets. General corporate
assets are principally cash, prepaids and other current assets.
